South Iu.Ipt!sb0r0,

Tho following appears in the Rutland
Herald, under tho head of South Wards
boro:
Since the death of pastor Tufts, who for
near half century mnistered to the once
strong church here, we have known no
such religious interest as is now perVndinr
our community. The conference of the
Congregational churches in this county, at
its session in September, 1871, decided TO
as the transfer Of Rev. o. G. Dickerson,
Qhen acting for the American Sabbath
School Union), for the general charge of
the more destitute localities in Windham
county. Secretaries Trumbull and Smith
being present, the arrangement was effect
ed. BY many the experiment of hiring a
missionary Mt so large n salary was crti-
cised. Men might have been secured for
half the sum WAC could have ranged the
hills and preached to the few in those fee
BILE churches and school houses quite as
well. Why pay so much, then? But the
conference persevered, and the missionary
persevered. For two years this expendi-
ture of effort and funds and faith has gone
on, and ii is averred by men long acquaint-
ed with our county and State that no like
investment within their memory has yield
ed results so entirely satisfactory to our
churches, as have been realized here in
Windham county during the two years
Just past. But of the seven towns that
have felt and responded TO this work of
Christian love and public spirit, VIC think
none have given more gratifying answer
than our own. We have been blessed with
steadily, though slowly deepening inter-
est since the formation of our Sabbath
school and reopening of our house of wor-
ship by Mr.. Dickerson, while yet acting
for the American Sabbath School Union
Then by a general subscription the house
was well repaired. BY another subscrp-
ton our quota TO the conference committee
was paid, and an earnest, effective brother,
n. ID. n etcalf, employed, who came to us
through G. S. Smith. Looking back we
easily trace the hand of God in the entire
connected series of events up to the pleas
ant congregations that now statcdly ill our
renovated, beautilied sanctuary, and
the frequent conversions and confessions
recently, by which real divine revival is
evidenced and the kingdom of Christ in
Wardsboro strengthened. But few days
since reliable citizen and member of the
church said to the writer of this that no re-
ligious revival Of equal depth and extent
had occurred here, he believed, for more
than forty years. "Truly the Lord hath
done great things for us, whereof we are
glad w.R.K.

Charles o. Davis and Geo. c. Wether-
eli were chosen leaders of the two opposing
hunting parties of this place, with some
fifteen young men in each party. Tie
slaughter of AL kinds of game began on
Wednesday evening and continued till
o'clock Friday p. NJ. of last week, when
the count took place before Mossrs. Atch-
erson and Floyd, two veteran sportsmen
who had been appointed judges. The
count on each side numbered more than
5000, and was so close as to produce con-
siderable excitement. A decision was rem
dcrcd in favor of c. o. Davis by few
counts less than the value of Il woodchuck.
The whole party, with their friends, then
partook Of an oyster supper in thetown hall,
prepared by Il. +. Richmond at the ex-
pcnse Of the defeated party.

Three young ladies', wishing to initiate
the example Of their grandmothers, pre-
pared the material and appointed quilting
at Seminary hall on Thursday of last eek,
inviting many of their female friends in
the afternoon to do the quilting, only leav-
ing here and there stitch to be taken by
the young gentlemen who were invited and
expected TO attend in Intervening. Some of
the boys and girls appeared in costumes of
100 years ago. Chalades and other plays
were INDUCED in during the evening, to
the general enjoyment Of the whole party.
The quilt, we believe, is TO be placed for
safe keeping in the hands of an Hon. En-
Senator, TO be given TO whichever of the
three young ladies Shall need it first for
housekeeping.

GOLDEN WEDDING.

The relatives, noghbors and friends of
Mr.. and Mrs. Hiram Haskell, old and
young, TO the number of about ono hun
dred, assembled on Thursday of last week
at their residence in the neighborhood of
their nativity and lifetime sojourn, to OBJ
serve the mi-centennial anniversary of
their marriage, bringing tokens of flial at
fiction, friendship and respect. The four
daughters with their husbands, Except one
necessarily detained by business,) numor-
GUS grand children, and two great grand
children, glowed with delight in the pre-
sentation of many beautiful and useful ar
tces. The ample provision made by the
children, who all reside at distance from
the parental roof, fully atlested their una
bated regard for those who had so faithful
~ provided for their helplessness in infan-
cy, the memory of which will, no doubt,
go far to smooth the path of the declining
life Of their parents. Among the presents
were four s2i gold coins and one half dol
lar gold piece, two pairs of gold bowed
spectacles, photographs, and an album with
rich gold clasps, nico pair of slippers and

spread tables were cold meats trimmed
with varied colored leaves and flowers,
bread and golden butter, pies, cakes, pick

elites and delicious things which were UNI
iversally admired, was highly ornament

festal cakes. Not the least attractive was a
huge loaf of "twist bread" brought from
New York, the eating of which did not
abate the interest. All things were polite

1.-THE art of milling spring wheat has
been so much improved in the last few
years that many OF the mills are turning
out -four nearly equal TO white winter
flour, and where they use the new French
improvements, the -four is considered even
better than winter wheat ground by the old
method. The Europeans have always been
great way ahead of us in milling, and our
millers have at last walked up TO the neces-
sity of an improvement. This new system
of grinding was introduced in this country
by Frenchman named La Croix. He
commenced at Minneapolis, Mimi, where
the mills are mostly using IL. Their -four

ity OF Minneapolis where milling is carried
on on the most extensive scale by the new
method; yet the process is much slower
than the old one. The process consists in
The employment of machinery for moro
thorough cleaning of the wheat. They
grind very slow-no more than five BUSH
els per hour-which keeps the flour cool.
The coarser part goes through purifier,
which enables them to get the glutinous
part of the flour in with the more starchy
portion without leaving the flour SPECIFY.
This gives the flour the property which
causes it TO rise much quicker and make a
much sweoter loaf than the old"
