THE RUTLAND DAILY GLOBE FRIDAY MORNING. JUNE 49, 1876

Our farmers are busy and sweaty hoeing
their corn, which, by the way, came up 30
poorly that II hasn't given sufficient en-
ployment to the scare-crows. Many had |
to plant over, and 30 much of the corn is |
late.
Ruben and Frank II. Eggeston have |
nearly ready for occupancy one of the |
fastest cottages in East Dorset. 1t is op- |
posite Alonzo Brophy's.
The repairs on Union church are pro-
crossing, but the end is not yet. They
were quite extensive and have extended to
every part but the belfry, and are much
like those OF the boys gun, where every
thing had to be made new but the lock.
The interest in politics has made fine
growth among us since the national con-
vention. The nominees are not every re-
publcan's first or second choice even, yet
all republicans seem well satisfied with the
action of the convention. The opposition
are mostly mute and are possibly waiting
for some one to pitch the tune before they
sing. They are dissatisfied clear through,
of course. Their eyes will have seen evil
all the days of the sixteen years last past,
when the 4th day of March next comes.
They have had lengthy fast and they are
hungry, and nothing will satisfy them but
the loaves and fishes of office. And now
another lanky and lean quadrennial of total
abstinence seems probable. It's too bad,
but then they hoisted themselves out of Of
flee with their own petard. E. NJ. T.
NEW HAVEN.
We have had all abundance of rain for
| the past few weeks and everything is look
| ing finely.
Mr.. A. S. Wright has been quite i'll, but
is now improving.
Repairs on the church are progressing
finely.

FAIRuAvRN.
Murray's dramatic company commenced
four night engagement here on Monday
last. The readers of THE GLOBE have
many times been told they were fine
company all things considered, perhaps
the best that ever visited Vermont. Their
plays enacted here have been good ones.
The Ticket-of-Leave Man, portrays the
character of the present age; when man
is down all try and hold him down instead
of assisting him up. The drama at the
present day is all that is left for the amuse-
ment of the people. Tragedy has been
monopolzed by the legal profession, and
low comedy by the politicians. The drama
when presented by as able a troupe as Muir.
rays, should be sustained. Castleton and
Brandon can give them full houses without
fear of being deceived
l can promise the lovers of music in Rut
land treat on the 4th, as they have Sc
cured the services of the Fairhaven cornet
band to furnish them music on that day
Those who expect to find music simply il
loud noise, the playing of the band viii
disappoint, but those who love close har
, mony, sweet melody, perfect time and nc
, cent, will enjoy themselves. After hear
ing this band play "Robin Affair."" they
must ask them to sing "Tommy don't yol
co." remembering that Welchman is q
much at home in music as a fish is in wa
2 ter.
The Fairhaven man who went to Rut
land last week aboring under the impress

was willing to admit, upon his return, tina
,, his impressions were erroneous. $.
