WATERHuKY. Last Wednesday the common

Of the Older citizens in all to the number Of about
four hundred and twenty or thirty, took an excur-
sion to this place to hold a picnic. The party

Of Barre schools Though the rain of the early
morning and Of the day before prevented the an
ticipated pleasure Of occupying the grove of the
hill back OF the Reform School ruins for the pic
ME- and enjoying the fine view Of the village and
surrounding valley, we think the party managed
to enjoy themselves in looking through tue Re

their beautiful surrounding grounds and the viii

town hall was occupied We hope our Barre
friends will be more fortunate next time ia having
dry grounds on which to recreate and enjoy their
refreshments. Some OF their citizens have had
an opportunity to see and judge for themselve s,
whether there was great wisdom in the legislature
in removing the Reform school and how much
advantage is likely to inure To .he school or the

thermometer lock on its new and large safe, fact
which is worth knowing

probably be worth going TO see.

Montpelier Slate Quarry.

The present week will BE- marked by the com
mencement Of a new business in Montpelier,
which promises by its probable magnitude to add
largely to the population, and ultimately to the
wealth Of the town During the summer Mr..
Charles 7. sabn, with the aid Of quarryman
who has had large experience in the business, has
been opening the bed Of slate which crops out on
his farm, In the ridge next southeast Of Seminary
Hill. This examination has resulted In the dis
eovery Of an inexhaustIble bed Of black slate,
which IL the color most In demand; and the stone
is Of superior excellence for roofing mantel-peces,
hearths, floor tiling and all other purposes for
which slate is used The slate Is soft enough 10
admit Of saving and planning easily elastic, tough,
and strong In fibre, - rs 10 bear great weight
without fracture thus assuring durability and
the deposit is in layers that admit Of splitting well
in every direction in which slate is ever split, and
In very thin sheets, The last Is the sort most de
srable for roofs rs II affords light and compare
lively cheap material for covering In short, Mr..
Sabin is confident that be has the best slate yet
discovered in Vermont This IL claiming much,
inasmuch rs everybody knows that Vermont slate,
OF the quarries which have long been worked, Is
Of high rspute and is used in nll parts VI the
country But II it shall turn out that the slate is
simply good Tor use, or as good as any other In
this region there are several advantages In this
quarry which assure success 10 its owners, even
when most other quarres cannot be proftably
worked The first Is that the amount Of waste Is
exceedingly small when compared with quarries
generally; and another Is that ample ground for
dumping the waste adjoins the quarry. Stl
another and greater advantage Is that stream
for drainage, with a never-iailing flow Of water
ample for supply ing steam mill for saving and
planning the slate, runs within a few rods Of the
outlet Of the quarry; and finally, the Montpelier
& Wells River and the Montpelier White River
Barre railroads pass within few rods, and
tracks can be laid at little cost TO the quarry and
the slate mills and Yards
There are other advantages Of less moment
such Us the immediate proximity Of the works to
Montpelier village, and Immediately ad joining the
quarry an abundance of land admirably adapted
for the residences Of the miners and others en-
ployed in the business.
All things considered, Mr. sabin is Of opinion
that the prospect IL very ntiering and rs soon as
he fully RECEIVERS from his late dangerous illness,
he will prosecute the work with ygor We arr
glad TO say he Is convalescng rapidly
