10 unceremoniouely in January last, and of
whom nothing could be learned, has been
found at last. He was discovered in New
York last week by one of Pinkerton's de-
%tectives, apparently in an unsound mind
aud taken in charge. He was well dressed
and had a quantity of clean clothing in q
with him. Last Saturday his senses
came to him, but he cannot give any &C
count of himself in relation to where he
has been or what prompted him to leave
his wife and family. MIR. Powers met him
in Poughkeepsie and brought him home
and he is at present in perfectly sound
mind. 1t is thought he was taken sudden
ly insane.
We understand Miss Ida Andrews who
in the graded school here last term,
and is now at her home at Pittsford, will
take possession of a s%'select" school
at that place. The school will not be a
very large one, comprising only one scholar
but will, undoubtedly, be a very pleasant
one for her to manage. No cards.
Notwithstanding the extreme tightness of
the times a large amount of building and
repairing is being done this spring.

Much confusion seems to exist regarding
nv lOh6th vi AhiC W OO CCuplC III lnt
celebration. From the records
of the Bennington battle monument Iasso-
citation, q body directed by law 10 take
of the states centennial and the Gel
ebration of the battle of Bennington, it ap-
that August 10 and 10 have been des-
for these two purposes, the presi-
dent Of the United States and other guests
having been invited for these days only.
But the celebration is not on that account
to be limited to two days. Many other
bodies have voted to hold their annual or
biennial reunions their during centennial
week-the soldiers reunion, the state mill
tia, the Editors and publishers association
and the Vermont historical society, are all
to meet at Bennington then, and each body
will expect u day or part of a day to itself;
non of which, except the day for the his
torical society, can be any part of the ex-
ercises for the Is b and 10th. The old
church at the Centre village, the eldest in
the state, and one having a civil
and military as well as an &C.
clesiastlcal history, is DESTROYS of
having a reunion Sunday afternoon, the
18th. 1t is the work Of the ASSOCIATION to
arrange all these various bodies. in con-
junction with their representatives, into one
harmonious whole, covering a space, per-
haps, of an entire week, closing up possi-
bly, on the 18th, with an exhibition of the
military of the several states, which it is
expected will be present TO engage in a sham
fight, illustrating the battle of Bennington
with the same artillery that Stark captured
from Baum, with the contestants clothedin
the garb of the Green Mountain boys and
''Molly Stark's" husband. All this is pro-
jected, but it depends on the labors of the
state commission, Of which Lawyer
Phelps of Burlington, Is president, whether
it will be carried out. Funds are needed
for so extensive q programme. and only
50, 900 is certain from the state. The COM
mission are to raise $4,000 besides, and
are receiving encouragement from all quar-
ters. Until their labors are completed a
definite programme for centennial week
cannot be determined on.-SpriRafeld Re-
