VERMONT CATTLE ABRoAp.-AtMr. Cheney s
great sale of shorthorns. held at Gaddesly,
England, July 10th, the exported COW, Lady
Sale of putney," by Messrs. A. NJ. Winslow
& Sons, of Putney, Vt, brought the remarka-
BILE price Of Gi93 lOs and her bull calf flG2
los.
In all this large sale of animals, selected with
the greatest care from the best herds in this
country and in England, but four cows and one
bull outsold them--a fact of which Vermonters
may well feel proud. " Lady Sale, 9th,
whose likeness embellished the first report OF
the Vermont Dairymen's Association, is the
dam Of " Lady Sale of Putney." The young
est calf Of the old COW, dropped last winter, is
the most valuable young animal in the State
is said to be the most promising of all her nu'
mcrous progeny, and evidently destined to out
rank her now noted sister.

pHLLIrs CoNcERr.-A few Of our music
loving public were given a rare treat last
wednesday and Thursday evenings, in the un-
usually fine concerts given under Mr.. A. D..
Phillips direction The two principal artists
were new aspirants for public favor among us,
and they certainly deserved all the applause
and praise they received, Miss McQuesten
has a pure and very sympathetic soprano voice
Of large range and excellent culture Her rem
dering Of Mulder's staccato Polka, Wednes
day evening, was very fine, fully exhibiting the
compass Of her voice apd power Of execution,
and the effect Of the simple Scotch ballad which
she sang as an encore only added to the favor
able impression Of her first appearance before a
| MONTPELIER audience But the voice of the
concerts was MIR. j. g. Lombard of New
York, and we are unable to express fully our
appreciation or admiration Of it. a bass OF
the purcst quality. it seemed almost unlimited
| in It's power and richness It had that mellow
richness Of tone which most purely bass voices
| lack, and surpassed in natural power and beauty
any voice We ever heard, We hope the next
time he appears among us he will have an audi
eneo worthy of hisyoce. OF Mr.. q. W. bud
ley's singing we hardly need speak, as he is ar
ola Montpelier fayorite, and is always enjoyeC
aud enjoyable Mr.. +. II. Wood, of Burling
ton, showed himself fully entitled to the posi-
ton Of one Of the best piOnists in the State
As we see and hear Mr.. Phillips among us oc
casionnlly we can only regret our loss, and env,
orr Bnrlington friends in their success in rob
bling us of him We hardly think our public
showed their appreciation Of his endeayors Il
give them a first class musical feast, and an,
pecuniary loss is nothing to him as compared
} with an apparent lack Of appreciation. Thu
a concert which would have drawn large an'
cultivated audience in Music Hail. in Boston
or in any similar auditorium in the country
! should be given on its repetition to between
forty and fifty persons, is difcredit to tn
Capitol and severe reflection on the cultiya
