Editor Home journal:
We have had the heaviest fall Of rain
in this section known for a long time
at this season ofthe year. 1t has real
" done damage to several farmers.
Maj. a. j. SilvcrtoOth says it has done
more harm than he big lreshet Of last
year.
The wheat crop is fine, better than
last year, except n little blade rust.
Corn looks splendid. We have every
reason to be cheerful over the pros
poets.
Mr. Jas, Graham, owner Of the mill,
is quite sick, and his many friends are
anxious about him.
The proprietoTs OF Hurric"ne
Springs are improving their premises
wonderfully, in anticipation IF visitors
this summer, and | would say Il good
deal in praise Of this watering place,
but | see no advertisement Of the
same in the Home Journal, and you
might consider my remarks as an adj
v%crtiscment, and would not publish.
wal write you again very soon. We

We have in the Home journal Office
tive skeleton of a fish, killed Il week or
,vo since in Elk river, near EStilI
Springs, 81 miles from Winchester. 1t
must have weighed about 100 pounds,
Its mouth measures S inchcs by AZ,
and the body was five tcet in length.
Itappears that son Of DR., Jno, j.
W. Payne was shooting fish III the riv-
ar st the mouth of u race. when this
monster made his appearance and was
shot Wv Young Mr.. Payne, but not Sc
cured because he was afraid to "go in"
for it. III a few days the fish tloated
TO the bank in 4 decomposing condi
ton. DR.. Payne, having heard 9TH"
boys" Nlating upon the strange ami
mal, concluded to go an! see tor him
SEX, and to him We are indebted for
the skeleton. But neither the doctor,
iwcIl .inroi med as he is upon near all
suhiects,) nor several others, even
Hugh B%!ackwood, who have had long
,cxpcrience with fish Of all kinds, could
tell US what it was. Now, we are a"
fat in nothing. superficial in 4 few
things, but almost ignorant in 'chthy-
ology. But dilcttanteism rs a quality
of our nature. And so, we s.e.ermlned
TO fad out if this horrible w&ter animal
was a nondescript-an abnormal mons
ter vet unciassifed. We searched
through our scaut library for light,
and anon we cried out: Earska! All
the docto RS in Franklin county could
not have more infinitely examined into
the anatomy of any organized body
than we, sail alone" examined into
this. 1t has two rows of canine teeth,
about one inch in length, firmly set in
ITS maudible jaw, and any number OF
i~ncisory teeth, canine in form, and in
clin:ng inwsrds in both the Epper and
lower jaws. 1t is nothing morc than
huge Jack fish. Tue novelty is, that
as VIC seldom find a Jack fish in oui
waters weighing more than ten OF
twelve pounds, here is one that
weighed, most certainly, asout loC
pounds. We had intended to take } il
to the Centennial, but our Investigation
hes made US conclude to merely write
this muth about it IN the Home Jour
nal, 1t is surely worth relating thu
so large a fish should be found in the
waters Of Elk river. H. may be he
ahri%ed'ir some deep hole, or, came up
during a rise in the river. His re-
mains can he seen free of charge for
lew days at the Home Journal office.

Many are wont to speak slightingly OF
the influence of Vermont in the national
convention of the republican party, as IT,.
because we are small and have only ten
votes, we can exert but little influence;
and, hence, that the personnel of our dele
gates is a matterOf small importance The
history of the national convention of 1860,
proves to the contrary Henry j. Ray
mond, in his history of the administration
of Abraham Lincoln, says that ION the
''second ballot the first indication OF the re-
"sult was felt, when tue chairman of the
"Vermont delegation announced when the
''name of Vermont was called, that Yer
"mont cast her ten votes for the young
''giant OF the west. Abraham Lincoln.'
And SO Murat Halsteah, in his letters to the
Cincinnati Commercial subsequently gath
cred up and published IN book form-says:
"His"-Lincolns- gain was the
"whole vote of Vermont. This was a
"blightng blow upon the Seward interest.
1.-THE New Workers started as il an Orsinl
"bomb had exploded. The fate of the day
Twas now determined" In selecting dele
gates to represent Vermont in the nationa
convention, let the republicans of Vermont
remember these facts, and select such mer
as they can trust to represent their views
and exert an influence worthy of the state
and of the cause.
