FAIR AT LUDLow.-The annual Fair
at Ludlow, or on the fair grounds be-
tween that place and Proctorsville, Octo-
Der Sd and 4th, (for which we had no
space last week, is reported success.
The weather was little threatening at
times, but there was good attendance,
and a full exhibition in many depart
ments including horses and cattle. In
the fruit and vegetable departments the
display, as whole, was probably superb
or to any made at any fair this year or in
this section of the State. Floral Hall,
too, was we'll filled and spoke we'll for the
industry Of the fair hands of that com
munity. The music was furnished by
the Londonderry Cornet Band and added
much pleasure to the occasion through
out. The address was delivered by Col,
S. E. Pingry of Hartford, who proceed
ed to show the reasons why the Sons Of
Vermont should remain in their native
State, that Vermont acres in production
were second to none in other States.
The address was well received, and the
exhibition throughout passed off in a
manner highly credita bic to the farmers
and their enterprise in that section Of
Black River Valley.

HIGHWAY RoBBERY.--A most daring
attempt at highway robbery was made
on the mail stage running between lras-
burg and Albany, VT, recently. The
stage was on its return trip from Albany,
and whep passing clump of bushes a
man stepped out and sliced the horse by
the head at the same time demanding the
mail. The driver informed him that
there was no mail aboard. He again de-
manded it, saying that if it was not Civ
en- up he would blow his brains out
The driver then leaned over as if to get
it, seized the whip and gave the horse a
smart blow, which loosened the would-be
highwayman's hold, who shot at and put
a bullet through the drivers cap. But
few men would have had the presence Of
mind that the driver exhibited.

The ESCAPE OF BARToN.-Ihe Bur-
lington Free Press of Friday evening
says; We learn that Barton, the Water
bury Bank robber, really made his escape
in feminine disguise. 1t is stated that a
woman came aboard the cars at Essex
Junction, on Tuesday morning. After
the train left Montpelier with Barton as
a passenger, unhandcufed, she expressed
and showed strong sympathy with him
and was allowed by his keepers to remain
in the saloon, of which he was an occu-
pant. 1t is supposed that she changed
apparel sith him. He left the cars at
North Hartland, and his friend" went
on to New York that day the unobserved
of all observers. If this is so, it is one
of the sharpest performances on record.
The officers are still in pursuit of Bar
ton but with slight hopes of re-captur-
ing him.

WESTMINSTER Town FAIR &c.--The
Westminster Town Fair passed off finely
on Wednesday, notwithstanding threat
ening weather during a portion of the
day, report of which and the list Of
awards we expect to give next week.
The ladies society furnished dinner
during the fair in the Town Hall, serv-
ing their customers not only with the
best Of viands, including the best oysters
of the season, but also with the utmost
promptness and dispatch. We do not
know the amount OF their receipts, but
they had lively time, and fully deserv-
ed the success which we think they must
have received. The receipts we believe
are for the repairs of their church.
The auction sale of the Morse estate
in Westminster ON Tuesday, was largely
attended, and some $4,000 or $4,000
worth Of property sold. Some of the
sheep sold for over S4 head. A lot o.

How to Make Dutch Cheese.

Allow the milk to thicken then heat
gently over fire in large kettle, till
the curd separates from the whey then
dig out into colander or other suitable
vessel, so that the whey can be pressed
out of the curds as dry as possible after
all the curds are pressed out, crumbe up
with the hands as fine as can be done,
then press down in an earthcn vessel, and
let it stand a few days until it becomes
thoroughly heated. Don't omit to stir it
throughout every day, afterward pressing
it down, so that every portion of it may
become heated alike now take it out and
salt to suit the taste-if one wishes to,
she can add small quantity of butter, it
makes it richer; but it is not positively
necessary, as it is very good without it
then take deep basin or basins, accord
ing to the quantity and size you want the
cheese), grease them well. press them
even full of cheese and set them in q stove
or oven and bake till slightly brown on
the top, and your cheese is done. This
mode of making it is equally as good as
English cheese, and tit to set before

Fish as Manure


DR.. j. Y. G.. Smith said in the Far
mers Club, fish was very good manure
for wornout lands. Their use for this
purpose was suggested to the Puritans by
SGuanto, an Indian, who told them that
the way the natives managed to raise corn
was by putting three herrings into each
hill. The Doctor also remarked that the
great value of the overfowiDg of the Nile
was the fact that the deposit if left on the
land was composed of millions of infusori-
al animals. This fertilizng material, so
rich in animal matter, had made Egypt
the granary of the old world He also
alluded to the custom of burying dead
animals near trees, so that they may de-
rive the benefit of the fertilizing matter
contained in the muscles, and the phos-
pilates IN the bones as the bodies decay.
Mr.. Bruen told how friend of his bought
farm of poor land for $4,000. This farm
was manured with Moss Buukers, spread
all over thickly, and ploughed under, af-
ter which crop of wheat was sowed-
The proceeds were forty bushels to the
acre on seventy acres, which lie sold for
$3.50 bushel, and thus paid for the
place twice over with the crop, and it was
the fish that did it, Dr. Growell said
that where Moss Bunkers were used con-
tinually, the land becomes sour after the
third year, aud will not produce a crop.
The same result is noticed with fish

Why Cattle Need Salt.

a correspondent wishes the reason
why cattle need salt 1t is because phos-
phate of soda, must be furnished to the
blood, whereas it is phosphate of potash
that exists in grains and grasses grown on
soils deficient, as most soils are, in saline
or sodic compound. When salt is taken
into the animal system it is partially de-
composed Some of it's chlorine unites
with the potassium of the potash while
the liberated sodium is oxydized to form
soda, and this combines with the phos-
phoric acid from the potash phosphate to
form phosphate of soda Soda also exists
in milk. 1t is this which gives the fuid
its 1ightly alkaline taste when first drawn.
If this be absent, as when cattle are not
supplied some way with salt, the milk is
unwholesome. Cattle are apt to prefer
grass grown on lands top dressed with two
or three hundred weight of salt to the
acre, for the reason that the salt rcnders
the grass sweeter, more tender and moro
succulent. The weight of grass grown on
salted land is, however, likely to be di-
minished in proportion, as rankness Of
growth is prevented.

at this base abandonment of the civil
rights Of the people, the State authorities
stepped in and permitted what the city
authorities had previously forbidden but
the mob had already triumphed too far to
yield peacefully to this sudden change,
and the slaughter which followed is at
tributable solely to the official cowardice
which first yielded to a mob it was after
wards unable to control.
1t is plain, moreover, that the first act,
of prohibiting the parade, was the legiti-
mate outgrowth of the principles control
ling the Democratic party but men have
no Inherent rights and that MIGHT alone
gives RIGHT. 1t brought into view the
ferocious claws which, though afterwards
withdrawn, the furred foot could not
wholly conceal. 1t was clear indication
OF what we may expect throughout the
country should the Democratic party ever
return to power.
