LOCAL MATTERS.

= Fred c. Hildreth, clerk in the post
office, has not lost an hour from his du-
Ties for more than year.
- S. III. Guild will this fall make the
best campaign in custom and ready made
clothing ever known in this place. See
his advertisement, and give him call
- Lost--a diary, belonging to G. S.
Griswold, and containing valuable ac-
counts, &c. The finder will be satisfac-
torily rewarded by returning the same.
= Mr.. L. G. Bolton, of Bartonsville,
sends US a sample of fine looking white
fig, grown by him on tree, on which
are forty not yet ripe.
Messrs. Cobb, Underwood, & Co..

Bellows Falls Clothes Pin Co., for clothes
pins, both received diplomas at the State
fair last week.
- The most prompt and enterprising
market man in serving our village with
meats, recently, is Master Fred Lowell, a
son of L. T. Lowell I'd, who is but ten
years of age.
= We understand an attempt was
made by burglars to enter the store of
d. f. Gushing at Cambridgeport, Satur-
day night. They failed in their purpose,
either from having been frightened away,
or otherwise.
= From the report elsewhere we judge
our friends at Bartonsville recently had
avery pleasant and successful picnic, in
which they seem to have conferred titles
with the liberality of college COM
mencement, and we may as well add upon
good and deserving men.
- A touching incident of the disaster
to the Metis has brought out piece of
new music, noticed on second page.
which we can not only commend from
having heard it played, but can also add
to it the endorsement of +. I. Baird, of
Chicago, well and fsvorably known here,
especially in the " divine art"
Reynolds Boston Comedy Compa-
ny are to give dramatic entertainment
at Union Hall next Tuesday and Wednes-
day evenings. They are spoken of with
30 much favor where they have been,
That we expect a good entertainment
from them, and would call attention to
their advertisement in another column.
- The Vermont Editors and Publish
ers' Association has been again postpon-
cd TO next year. Right. Too many poIit-
ical meetings, fairs, &c, for the annual
reunion this year. The Burlington Free
Press says that business meeting of
the Association will be held at Montpe-
lier during the session of the legislature.
- Two brothers named Porter, for
merly of Alstead, we believe, and en-
ployed in some of the paper mills, got
On drunken spree on Saturday, and
we're arrested by Capt. Taylor and put
b. the Lookup, and in the evening were
brought before Justice Bridgman and
6ned, one SO and the other So and costs.
There was fair attendance at the
concert at Union Hall ON Friday even
hg, though the storm during the day
doubtless kept many away. The per-
brmance of Mr. Heine was of course
PIE leading feature of the evening.
Blind from birth, yet he has developed
INTO one of the finest violinists in the
Rorld, while Mrs. III. is pianist of rare
ebility, and worthy companion to her
husband in the divine art.

- The Vermont Central Railroad
managers have recently put on new
and nicely finished mail car to run from
this place to Springfield, Mass. The
postal arrangements in it we believe
were made under the direction of A. M.
Kendall, route agent on that line, and
are very convenient for that service, and
the entire car is finished in very nice
and superior manner. Messrs. Kendall
md Snow are the route agents on this
Gne, and are of course well pleased with
Aeir new quarters.

II seemed to enjoy it as very pleasant
