xo old FOLK. concor, at Ca.t,eton.

NJ Oiu folks Concert AT GasuetOn.
Ye old folks concert in We town hall was
ye grand success Of ye season. The audi
ence room was literally packed with large
delegations from Castleton, Fairhayeu,
Poultney, Rupert, Granville Pawet and |
Hubbardton. The stage was "appropri- |
ately decorated" with chairs, whose varie-
ties Of construction marked every epoch in
the manufacture of chairs, from the high
backed gothic affair.", that looked own
cousin to the tradtlonary chair Of the May
flower, TO the cane seated chair Of tee mod
ern dining hall A clock, whose top was
little short Of the ceiling was placed at the
back and proved perfect "tilneist.' On
the wall on either side hung warming
pan and bellows Of ancient date foot
stove, a spinning wheel and a row of twenty
candles in brass, iron aud silver candle
sticks of every pattern with suffers com
pleted the array of " housenstulf The
organ put in an idea Of something more
modern, but the Imprinted music stand,
holding book of ancient psamody, which
was in front of the instrument, very nearly
put it out of sight.
AT half.past seven ''ye men and women
singers" filled in, Mr.. ]. S. Dutton, 'time.
ist," at the head They were all in out
door gear, and looked like vision that
might have been seen by Mr.. Pyncheon in
the house of the seven gables. Poke bon
nets, calashcs, cloaks and hats of most
amazing proportions and styles presented
themselves in huge and formidable array,
and it was for some time impossible to re-
oognze faces that are familiar to us through
daily intercourse in their unwonted sur
roundngs
