Drowning of a st. Johnsbury Boy.

Willie A. Ward, nephew of Osborn
Ward of this village with whom he has
lived the past five years, was drowned
at Marshalltown, Iowa, on Tuesday,
June &c, together with a companion.
The following particulars we gather
from an account published in local
paper, and from his uncle of this place {:
Willie left st. Johnsbury last March, to
seek home in the West. He hired out
to Robert Stewart of Green Mountain,
Iowa, to work on his farm. Young
Ward went into Marshalltown with Mr..
Stewart in the morning of the day of
his death, but was not ready to return
when Mr.. Stewart did, and said he
would find a chance to ride out in the
evening. This is the last known of
Ward until about half-past two in the
afternoon, when one Henry L. Bliss, a
Il painter from Chicago, who had started
to go out to Green Mountain on foot,
and coming to the bridge, he found
he could not cross 1.-THE reason
is not given). On turning back he met
two strangers, (who proved to be Ward
and one VIM. Dunlap, who worked for
"a Mr.. Rice, a neighbOr of Mr.. Stewart).
Dunlap was on horse, and Ward was
walking. They told Bliss they had

The late rains have been great help
to all kinds of crops in this vicinity
especially the grass. But very little
haying has been done yet, and if the
farmers will let it alone another week
they will get al average crop except OH
high lands.
The Fourth was ushered in by firing
of guns, ringing of bells, and hooting
of young America generally. Basket
picnics at Greenbanks' village and at
West Danville, constituted all the pub
lie demonstrations in this locality.
The Railroad Company have taken
down their water tank near West Dan
vile and moved it to Cambridge. 1t
was not in a suitable location.
Mr.. Richards, young man living in
the Kittridge neighborhood, was kicked
by horse last Sunday. He was play
ing circus with him, jumping on and of
when he was on the full run, and per-
forming various other feats, but us "A
finale he attempted to hang by his ear
to his right hind leg, and would have
succeeded had not the end of the leg
come up and hit him in the mouth,
knocking out several teeth and cutting
his face badly. He was found in an in
sensible condition soon after the &C.
currence. Medical aid was summoned
and he is now doing well. He will
carry the marks hereafter to vouch for
his equestrian ability.
The Congregational society have de-
cided to build "A new parsonage, and
probably on the old site. 1t is thought
that about $500 will be required by
subscription.

The Hopkins Case, Again.

From some remarks we have heard,
we judge some readers must have care
lessly read the comment on the Hop
kins case, in the last CdledOnidn. We
expressed no opinion as to the guilt or
innocence of the respondent, or the
justice of the verdict. We simply said
that the promptness of the verdict of
guilty was surprise to the majority of
those who heard the evidence. 1t was
quite freely talked during the trial by
those who generally know how case
is going, that the jury would not agree,
unless to an acquittal. 1t was as freely
talked after the trial, that it was a
"blanket" verdict; and that had the
mans record been good otherwise, he
would not have been convicted. We
do not pretend to say that this is just,
but simply that this was largely the
public expression, and we were simply
the fact.

There has been so much talk about
which mill could saw the most, the
Russell mill or the mill at Miles pond,
that it resulted in a challenge from the
men that work in the mill at the pond
for test of one hour. Messrs. Russell
sawed logs % feet long, and in one
hour they sawed 1856 feet of inch
boards. Messrs. Hastings sawed logs
IA feet long, and in the same time sawed
$3.50 feet. They claim at each mill
that they can saw 1000 feet in one
hour. James McKelvey runs the saw
at the Russell mill, and his son runs
the mill at the pond. He says he will
try it again.
The late rains make it look more like
getting fair crop of hay.
Miss Tina TiltOn from Miles pond is
giving music lessons in the village.

A Migratory Bird.

The readers of the CaledOniaR are toll
erably familiar with the name of that
champion dead beat, L. B. Partridge,
late of Danville. His record has been
up for inspection in this vicinity for
several years. Some time last year,
after forging the name of DR.. Baxter of
Highgate on note given Geo. Tisdale
of this place, Pat. stepped out, and
was next heard of in the Black Hills.
From the accounts given in the Dako-
tab newspapers, we infer he undertook
about the same game there which he
did here. In this paper of June 8, was
published an account of the purchase
10y him of a silver mine. Very likely
the silver mine did not "pan out" just
as he expected, for about the 25th of
the same month he appeared in Dan
vile, where he was promptly arrested
on indictment found against him by the
grand jury for forgery. His trial was
set for Monday of this week, and his
bail fixed at $500. Bliss N. Davis went
bail for him, ostensibly, but it is under
stood his relatives in Danville are the
real bail. When the case was called
Monday morning, it was found that the
Partridge had again flown, and his tri-
al did not come off. He was known to
have come down from Danville to this
place on Sunday, since which he has
not been seen-here. 1t is intimated
that Partridge's friends wish him to
keep away, as he would be pretty sure
to 90 to Windsor if he stood trial. Isn't
it rather humiliating to have that
cheeky individual escape his deserts
much longer

very particular attention shown them.
1t was called Children's Sunday. Ser

sides, with wreaths of the same, and
bird cages with canaries hung in
the wreaths. Upon the approach to
the chancel was grotto of flowers and
plants, with fountain of running wa
ter. On either side was exposed pyra-
mids of blossoming plants, and between
these harp of flowers. In the centre
of the chancel approach, was a large
wreath some six feet in diameter and
upon triangle hung within the circle
were the words childhood, Youth and
Manhood which was the title of a
prominent exercise of the exening. On
the left side of the church, "Suffer little
children to come unto me-" and on the
right, "And he took them in his aims
