W0opRURY JULY 18th, 1876

MIR. EDITOR. .-AThe celebration of the Centennial Fourth, in this place, was SO fully reported in your last. that any addi- ton at this late day is sneedless; but it was indeed very much enjoyed by those who participated, and the remark was report ed, that on no similar occasion depending upon home talent, were the speeches so uniformly good. There was deep, earnest thought, and wit and variety enough to prevent tediousness.
 The evening of the day saw crowd at the Town Hall, where was held Festi- val, to aid in the completion and furnish ing of the Union chapel at Pomperaug.
 The following Sabbath. July 9th, the centennial sermons were preached. That by the pastor of the first church from Ps. 12, 16, was worthy of him and the occa- sion. and listened to by large congrega- ton, notwithstanding the extreme heat of the weather. The afternoon was given to Sabbath School praise service, inter-

The Woodbury Brass Band play ed finely; our vocal and machine music was beautiful, and the little rest we took from 4 to s o'clock p. m. was refreshing. .sWaked up by our sundown salute, and the ring. ing of the bells, a multitude thronged our streets to witness the pyrotechnic display which was beautiful, exceeding any thing of the kind in this place during the past century.

 Last Friday, as Charles Thomas and his brother Myron were driving their ia. ther's team of valuable four year old oxen from the harvest field with eight shocks of rye upon the cart, in decending de- clivity, neither very steep or stony. the off OK stumbled. hit his nose on the ground. and reeled over with such force as caused the other OK to turn summersault also. Both oxen there lay upon their backs, their necks twisted in the yoke, their horns driven into the ground nearly their full length, no tool or help at hand until an ax was procured from the house, per- haps 80 rods away. The off OK was strug- gling his last when the bow was cut, and there expired. The near OK was then re- leased, and after his horns were pulled out of the ground. was rolled over. much hurt, but probably will recover. No blame is in any way attached to the dnver.

WASHINGTON JULY 17th. 1876.

l Us
 MIR. ED1ToR.-Your story of ssA little amusing by-play about the cannon in Washington does injustice to the most laboriouS committee that was engaged in the preparations for our pleasant celebra- tion of the Fourth. You will be glad to have mistakes based upon erroneous in- formation corrected. The committee on fire works procured the cannon with the avowed purpose of firing salute at sum- rise. on Prospect Hill. You say ''There was objection to It's being fired in. the center of the village" No such objection was made 10 the Committee who never intended to fire 1t there. On Sunday evening 1t was carried of; you add. "At last, assurance having beep given that it would not be fired ill the village center, the place of it's hiding was disclosed. |" Here are two mistakes. This assurance was not given tat last, but ''at first" namely on Saturday, when the gun was locked in Dea. Galpin's barn on the Green for safe keeping. No such assurance was ever given the parties who carried off the cannon; no communication was had with them. They, if suspected, were un- known. "The place of it's hiding was dis closed."' not after, or by reason of any assurance" of this kind.
 The committee spent large part of the day, Monday, in search for the lost gun; they called in help and secured Bell Hill in vain. ''At tast," they offered a re. ward for it's discovery. The only "assur- ance' was this-They would pay ta0eaty fve dollars for the discovery of the can- non. This was effectual-the gun was found, and "opened the Fourth in due form." and exactly as was proposed at first. The re,0ard aOos paid. Committees on all such occasions do deal of work for which they seldom receive even thanks from the people who enjoy the fruit of their labors. In this instance the action of the Committee on Fireworks was duly appreciated and applauded. If the money spent in the way have described, had been expended in powder, the many hun dreds gathered in the evening to see the fireworks would have had another pleas ant memory of our Centennial Celebra- ton. in the wonderful reverberations that rolled and rolled up and down the She- paug Valley, echoing back from Church Hill, the Cobble, and Pinnacle, when the gun was fired just below MT. Gunn's ball ground. Is it quite fair to this commu- nifty to speak of the affair of the cannon as Ca little amusing by-play?"
 Yours truly,
 VINDEx
