You've HORSE THIEVES. Two boys,
about Is years old, named Moore and
Lest, stole S. U. Kings horse and bug
gy at Windsor, Sunday afternoon, where
he had pitched them, to attend church.
They drove to Westmoreland, N. H.,
put the horse up, and slowed themselves
away in the straw in Robert Green's
barn, and when Mr.. Green went to his
barn in the morning he found a strange
horse, and presently the two boys, who
had oversight, crawled out Of the straw,
but denied knowing anything about the
horse. Mr.. Green thought there was
something wrong, and detained the team
and had them arrested; and on Tuesday
they were sent back to Windsor from
Keene handcuffed, and in custody of an
officer.

IMPORTANT STATE CAsE.-An impor-
tant decision was recently made by the
supreme court, five judges hearing the
case and concurring, at the recent term
in Washington county. Loyal G. Kel-
logg petitioned for mandamus to COM
pei the state treasurer to pay certain state
bonds in coin under joint resolution
of both branches of the Legislature of
1870; but the petition was dismissed,
the court affirming the constitutionality
of the United States legal tender act,
and ruling that the resolution of the Leg
islature was not mandatory, but simply
authorized" the treasurer to pay these
bonds in such currency as should be law
full at the time the obligation should fall
due. BY this decision the state saves
alike its credit and its money.

SPRINGFIELD.-An Irish boy about
six years old fell into the mill pond above
the Vermont Novelty Works Co.'S Ma
chine Shop, on Tuesday last week, and
came near being drowned, but was res
cued by Mr.. Collins, one of the pro-
prietors of the wooden mill.
Mr.. Wheeler, alias Horace Greeley,
Jr.," who for some time has been en-
ployed by Mr. S. Baker, stage proprietor
between Springfield and Charlestown,
N. H., Woodstock, Gassets, ETC., was on
Sunday II inst entrusted with an express
package containing s105, to be deliver
ed to the express agent at Gassetts, which
he failed to deliver, which circumstance
he forgot (?) to mention, but purchased
a suit of clothing and decamped with the
balance. He was arrested at Fitchburg
Mass, brought back and sent to Jail.

New ENGLAND FAIR.-The arrange
ments of the grounds for the New Eng
land fair at Lowell are being rapidly
perfected. Six railroads will land freight
and passengers directly on the grounds.
The press will have separate building
for their accommodation. Two hundred
and fifty stalls for horses, and three
hundred and twenty covered pens, with
suitable number for sheep and swine,
are completed. A large tent will be
provided for the exhibition of poultry.
1t is expected that there will be an I'M
usually fine show of fowls, as some of
the New England Poultry Club are de-
sirous of large exhibition.

TowNsHEND.-It is very quiet here in
Townshend, and has been all summer.
There are quite number of visitors
spending the warm weather here, prob
ably more than any season before The
farmers all report very light hay crop,
many think they have not more than
half the usual crop, but it is of excel
lent quality. The grain crop is good,
and most of it harvested in good condi-
ton, corn, potatoes, ETC., promise good
Weld. The fall term of Leland and
Gray Seminary, commences Aug. Dist,
in charge of Prof Davidson; the pres
pect is good for large school. Sab
bath School Concerts are held every
month in the two Churches in the place.

An " OVERWHELMING DEMOCRATIC
VICTORY "A vacancy having occurred
in one of the wards in the city of Bur-
lington for Alderman, special election
was held on Tuesday to fill the vacancy,
whereupon the democracy made ire
mendous campaign of it, held two mass
meetings, got out the band, old Wardle's
fat boy, and finally elected their candi-
date by fue majority one hundred re-
publican voters in the ward not attend
ing the polls. Under these gasping cir
cumstances, it is no wonder that the sue
cesful party are under the impression
that the presidential election of next
year is settled.

CELEBRATION AT BENNINGToN.--The
celebration at Bennington last week, was
a fine success. The number in attend
ance is estimated at over 10000. The
Grafton was delivered by j. K. Herbert.
The Oath regiment of the New York
Militia were present, and there was a
large procession and fine parade.
The attendance is reported larger than
at any prior celebration. Among those
present were Gov. Stewart, Gen. w. F.
Smith, and Others. As the result of the
event they celebrated, probably saved
this and other towns in this County from
pillage at that time, we give an interest
ing account of the battle of Bennington
on first page.

- Several farmers of East Barnard
have dubbed together and sent west for
car load of corn to made up for a short
crop of hay.
= Capt. Sullivan Blood Of St. Louis,
NO., has Just visited Windsor after an
absence of forty-eight years. He left
Windsor with his wife on his wedding
day, in private carriage, and made his
way to ST. Louis in about four weeks,
and returns to visit the scenes of his ear
ly life after almost half century.
"A young man named Walter Rich
ford in the employ of William W. Pei
ton. of Woodstock received very seri-
Gus if not fatal wound in the bowels ON
Tuesday of last week, from the horns of
one of pair of oxen he was driving.
He was backing the team, standing in
front of them as is customary with team
sters, and the supposition is unconscious
ly stepped too near and received a thrust
from the struggling and innocent OK.
- We have received the first number
of the Orange County Eagle, now en-
larged and conducted by Mesers. F. A.
Carpenter and L. H. Wiley. These
gentlemen we believe are both practical
printers and they have got out good
looking paper, well filled and conducted,
and therefore deserving full and sub
stantial local support. A village news
paper always adds more than is general
ly supposed or appreciated, to the valua-
ton of the material interests of the
place where it exists, by giving it repu-
tation and prominence abroad, and as
West Randolph always appears, when
we have seen it, like smart, thriving
1 business town, we doubt not they and adj
Joining towns will do themselves the cred
it 10 give their paper a liberal support
and patronage.

Always buy a newspaper when
travelling. Henry Wilkes of Canandai-
qua, N. Y, who was on board the
Westfeld at the time Of her explosion,
observed this rule, and was holding it
before his face. Though he was sent
some 90 feet in air and had his hands
considerably scalded, he managed to get
to shore without damage to his beauty.
