BELLOWS FALLS, JUNE 81, 1872,
wisconsin Apples and the Picnic ON
Oven Ledge.


On the 18th of June was reunion
of descendants of the first settlers OF
Westminster on the sold Apple Oven
Ledge" some two miles west Of the vii
lage, near where the pioneers erected
their saw mill, which they kept running
night and day. The first settlers were
a hardy race, and after the labors of the
day the youth of street would occasionally
90 to the Old Oven and enjoy bake of APP
piles and game and possibly in harmony
with the music of the mill or waterfall
would sing of the good old times, when five
generations before their Puritan and Pill
grim fathers landed on Plymouth or Sa-
lem rocks.
At this reunion 18th June 1872, met
friends from the West and South in
grateful memory of the sacrifices made
by their forefathers on the Atlantic coast,
and subsequently in the valley of the
Connecticut.
The special promptings to the meeting
this day, may be found in the fact that
some youth of Westminster just fifty
years before, here took pledge to alb
stain from all intoxicating drinks.
AT early morn commenced the drilling
around the pinnacle of the mount
About II A. M, the joyful party as
sembled-old and young-witnessed the
drilling and aided in hammering of the
rocks, preparatory to filling boxes for
transporting portions of temperance
mount, to aid in the formation of SYM
bolic cabinets.
The exercises were opened by all TAX
ing seats on natural rocks forming near
ly circle around the oven, one side a
double row, a natural ampitheatre. Here
were recounted the events of the settle
ments of Hartford 1886, Northampton
1856, Mortified 1878, and Westminster
about 1850. Some incidents were stated
relating to the apple oven, when the
party retired few rods to grove for
refreshments where the youth volunteered
pieces on temperance, true independence,
goodness, union, &c Rev. S. 0, Morris,
veteran temperance man" suitably
addressed the assembly. After which
some verses prepared by Dr. David P
Holton were sung by old and young. In
the chorus none joined with more delight
than did Mrs. Bethia (Holton) White,
over ninety years of age, of the sixth
generation from Dea. William Holton of
Hartford, (who moved in 1866 to North
ampton) daughter of Joel Holton one Of
the first settlers of Westminster. At
this stage Of the exercises were brought
forward the Wisconsin apples, hot from
the old apple oven. Soon, the drilling
some twelve rods from the oven havsa
ing been completed, the picnicers re-
tired at suitable distance to witness the
blast. A happy jubilee of the temper
ance pledge.

THE SAD FICKLENEss OF FORTUNE.
While Nilsson returns to Europe with
an immense bank account, Patti exists
in a perpetual shower of diamonds and
francs, Lucca is always rich, and the di-
whites of the hour are everywhere so
prosperous, it is not without pang of
melancholy sympathy that one reads
of Mario forced to return to the stage
which he so recently babe farewell, and
Taglioni compelled to give dancing les
lessons in London. The great tenor lost
his substantial fortune by the failure of
his bankers in Florence. Taglioni's all
was swept away in the war, and SINH
lar misfortune brings both these noted
artists again before the public of new
generation. 1t is quarter of century
since Madame Taglioni retired from the
stage Fifty years ago her star arose in
South Germany, and the whole continent
was soon bidding for her presence. She
married at the height of her fame; and
before she had lost one of the many won
derful attractions which made her ia
nous, she retired with her husband to
private life, leaving name which is a
synonym for all that is graceful and
beautiful in her art. 1t is a hard fate
which now brings her out of her retire
ment to earn subsistence in her old age
by teaching generation that knows her
only by tradition, no less than that,
which compels Mario to bring the rem
nants of his wonderful voice to the carp
ing criticism Of world that has already
enrolled his name among the great ones
of the past.

,Corella, at Monterey, his army was killed
wounded, captured and scattered and he lost
everything, including his trains, artillery and
money chest, with its ten thousand dollars in
cash. In consequence Of this disaster at
Monterey the Juarista forces along the Dor
der line of the Rio Grande down to Matamoros
are not only in great state of trepidation, but
IN position Of great danger. TreviHo and
Quiroga, the revolutionary generals, encour-
eged by their late successes, and materially
strengthened by their captures of small arms,
ertiiiery. provisions and money, are pushing
back again towards the river and from pres
ent appearances the chances for their capture
and occupation Of Matamoros and the whole
o. North Eastern Mexico, from the mountains

FrrrcT OF GROUND BONE UPON

To be Of any virtue whatever,
ground bone must be placed where II
will undergo decomposition. It will
not rot under the Influence of heat
alone It's efficiency is greater or
less in propotion TO the greater or
less rapidity with which it dccom'
poses. Placed in dry soil in dry
season, its effect will scarcely be per-
ceptible; whereas, in a moist soil,
having a sufficient warmth, its intiu-
ence upon any crop will be strongly
marked. For intermixture with sour
soils. no other material is superior.
II neutralizes the acids, and warns
and decomposes all the vegetable
matter. The only way recommend
ed for using the Brighton phosphate
upon dry, sandy fields, is the aP'
piicant with it Of barn-yard ma
nurc, or in compost OF these artI'
cles These manures will hold water
in the soil and hasten the decay OF
the bone. In the vicinity OF hat

obtained from sandy fields by THIS
process.
