The Windham County Agricultural So

year at Fayetteville, Wednesday and
Thursday, September 18th an 26th. The
people of the comfy should not only
make this their gala day of the year, but
should be liberal contributors of their
productions and manufactures, not omit
ting of course the generally interesting
work of the fairer half of our county.
Thete is no one thing upon which our
entire population can so cordially unite
and give their whole heart and soul as
this annual festival of the farmers me-
chanics and manufacturers of the county.
The officers and managers are doing
their part for successful exhibition,
and it only rests with the good people of
Windham county to make it complete,
and we will not doubt they will do their
duty

been a member of the house for four
years from Athens, we are glad to see is

county, and he is elected from repub-
lican town by one majority. The vote
was A. Burnap, rep, II, l scattering,

the vote was IL republican to II for
Gardner.
The democrats of Stratton evidently
don't take to Greeley. that town gave
Gardner but two votes, for governor,
for G. N. Davenport, and AZ for Con-
verse, the whole being net republican

ballot. Mr.. Willis, we think, was for

likely that, in legislative experience, he
may prove to be the oldest member OF

FATAL ACCIDENT AT CHEsTER.-A
sad and fatal accident occurred near
Gassett's Station on Monday evening of
last week. We copy the particulars as
related by the Chester correspondent of
the Rutland Herald, as follows:
Mr.. Pollard Bates was returning home
from Reading ON that dav, and when
near the scene of the accident, stopped
few moments to converse with the "sec-
ton " men who were at work on the rail-
road track. Starting his team, he struck
his horse smart blow with the whip,
which caused him to Jump suddenly, and
Mr. Bates being off his guard, was thrown
backwardly out of the wagon, striking
ON his head and shoulder, with such force
as to break his back. Persons who wit
messed the accident Immediately went to
Mr.. Bates assistance, and found him ly-
ing upon his back perfectly helpless. He
was taken up and conveyed to the resi-
dence of Mr.. johnson. Drs. HazleUon
and Noble were soon in attendance, but
the injured man was past all medical SER
vice, and survived the accident only a
few hours, passing away from the scenes
of earth at six o'clock Thursday eve
ming. He was a son of Norman Bates,
of this town. and leaves wife, the
daughter of Benjamin Markham, of Sher-
burne.

The Reading Centennial /.

A correspondent writes expressing re-
grets that more particular mention was
not made on the day of the celebration,
of native individuals and the work of
their genius. We believe all was said
that was possible on that day. Another
whole day could mo doubt have been
pleasantly occupied by most of those
present, had that been practical thing.
No one person, however, could have
made such mention probably, without
some omissions, as each would be likely
to have branch of information not pos
sessed by the other.
Among those our correspondent would
have named were all the native doctors,
lawyers, clergymen, &c. The list would
include one engraver and sketcher, two
inventors and several distinguished mu-
sicians. Among these last are j. G.
Darby, engraver and sketcher, of New
York City, Dennis Townshend, inventor
of the "Folding Globe" and V. b.
Tow nshend, inventor of the Velocipede
Boat. OF the musicians are Osceola
Whitmore, Theodore Allen, and other
natives, who we think would be proper
to be named under this head.
