The above is a brief and simple dss-
cription of the serious disease with which
our island is at present afflicted, and which
has already claimed its victims. That the
epidemic now prevailing in this island 10
really identical with the disease described
above is proved directly by the two post NOR
tenn examinations which have taken Eplace.
AS have not been invited to attend either
Of them, and thus not had any opportunity
Of examining these cases, l cannot speak
from my own experience, but according to
information kindly furnished me by DR.. Neu-
mann concerning the one of the cases,
the alterations found were entirely cor
responding to what is usual in this disease. Il
is of great consequence that such an examina.
tion has taken place, for by it the nature of the
disease has been ascertained, for even if the
truth could be arrived at by way Of reasoning,
there might still have been room for doubt, q
doubt 80 much the more justified, as the disease
is not a common one, and has never, as we have
Just seen, made its appearance within the tro-
pics before, as far as my knowledge goes,
The disease has hitherto confined itself ex-
clusively to the labouring class on'the estates.
Neither among the town population, nor espe-
oially among the military has it, to my know
ledge, shown itself. Again, it has only made
its appearance on a few estates, and, as is its
tabit, spread by leaps. Here also it first show
ed itself 10 the cold months, the first known
eases having been observed by me in the month
of February on the estate Lebanon Hill. AS
will be remembered, February and March were
uncommonIy cold this year; this fact therefore
agrees very well with what we have seen of the
tendency of the disease to make it's first ap.
pearance in the winter months. The heat
must not by any means be alleged as its cause;
on the contrary we may hope, according to what
has been shown above, that it will disappear
when the warm weather sets in properly.
After two fatal cases at Lebanon Hill, the
disease, again following its habit, apparently
ceased, then suddenly jumped to estates situs-
ted at a long distance, then migrated from one
contiguous estate to another, and has now sud-
denly also made its appearance in the Westend
district. Oontagion is evidently out ofsthe
question here, whereas a common cause Of the
disease must be taken for granted.
To seek this 10 the situations or other rela.
ions of the estates is SO much the less ailowa-
BILE, as the estates in question, viz. Lebanon
Hill. Constitution Hill, Sion Farm Castle
Coakley and Work & Rest, certainly in every
respect, as regards the cleanliness and situation
of the villages, good food and care Of the ID
bourers are among our best estates. Another
question is whether the bad years the island
has suffered from, more especially the want Of
native provisions, may have made peoples more
disposed to catch the disease; ! but also this cir
cumstance. is made doubtful when we consider
that, hitherto at least, the many poor people

The Fair at WalpoIe.

The Fair to be held at Walpole next
week ought to command the interest and
attention of all the people embraced in
the district named and as many more as
may be- The circular of the President
and Secretary, given elsewhere, includes
a good statement of the objects and de-
signs of the Association, and also some
of the proposed proceedings. If any
fair has ever proved of value in the ex-
hibition of products and manufactures
this one cannot fail to prove of cores
ponding interest and worth The dis
trict embraces some of the best farms
in both Vermont and New Hampshire
and stock accordingly. With good
weather there can be no failure unless
the people fail, for they certainly have
produced in various ways and in various
departments that which will make the
exhibition a success. 1t is the home fair
for this section and let us stand by it as
other sections have already done by
theirs.
To do this it is only necessary to put
our products and manufactures on exhi-
bition. From what we learn we believe
the farmers are going to do their duty,
and We therefore turn to those who can,
if they will, fairly crowd floral and me-
chanics' hall with nice things of their
own artistic skill, useful and ornamental.
Curiosities, too, will be acceptable, as
they always are. Now, then, as we have
the material, don't let us fail to make a
successful exhibition. Warm up TO its
success and it shall help beat away and
drive away the dull hard times.

SOUTH READING.

At cheese factory meeting last Friday
afternoon, an attempt was made to form
an association to build a factory, but not
much progress made. 1t was generally
expected before, that Rufus Buck would
build the factory and manufacture the
cheese by the pound but Mr.. Buck was
not willing to take all the risk. As the
matter now stands, we are led to think
that doubtful things are mighty uncer-

The Barre Bank Robbery,
A NEW PHASE.


A new interest has been given to the

ing livery stable in New York, and
his real name is said to be Geo. Miles
White, but of late has been known in
New York, as Geo Miles. This may
account in part for the great legal fight
that was made in New York, in resisting
the requisition of the Vt. authorities,
and it is said that when White was ia
ken into carriage at Ludlow ST., Jail,
in New York, he screamed murder"
and shouted through the streets, call
ing upon the by ISLANDERS to rescue him,
but no one responded. The Montpelier
papers of this week, have full account
of his arrival at that place, and there
seems to be no doubt whatever of his
Identification, having already been iden-
titled by one man formerly living in this

day morning. An attempt to flag and |
stop the early morning express train |
failed on account of the fog preve nting
the engineer from seeing the red lantern,
and the result was that the train ran in

car and threw the next car loaded with
cattle, off the track, Just in the bridge
north of the depot, but without injuring
the stock. The engine, the Governor

for the air brakes, with which the Gen.

would have been much more serious.

The New Hampshire Press Association
will visit this place Tuesday of next
week, and will take look over town,
dine at Towns hotel and leave for Keene
in the afternoon. Our people ought to
give them good reception, and we doubt
not will do so and aid them to view
points of interest during their brief tarry
here. 1t will be to the advantage of our
village and fully appreciated by the AS
ISOLATION. There will probably be from
seventy-five to one hundred members of
the Association of both ladies and gen.
tlemen, present, who start from Concord
Monday, for Newport and Claremont.
At the latter place they are to have a
formal reception given by the citizens
Monday evening at the Town Hall, and
at 10 A, NJ. Tuesday, will leave Clare
mont Junction for this place. Their ex-
cursion extends through the week and
includes Keene, Fitehburg, Hoosac Tun-
mel, &c. Their desire is to see the prom
inent places of business and the Falls
and mills will doubtless be included
in what they will wish to see while here,
and if there be time they ought to be
taken to the Basin, which will show
them that interesting formation and at
the same time give them view of fine

cry. Let us see to it that we are not be-
hind our neighbors in receiving the press
