GENERAL WIN. +. SMITH. --Geu. VIM. L.
Smith, known to the army a. "Baldy"
Smith, unexpectedly arrived in Benning-
ton on Thursday afternoon, aud reached
the camp in time TO be present at the BAN
quet. At the conclusion OF the exercises of
the banquet, Gen. Smith visited the Ran
som Guards, Company d, lst Regiment
National Guards of Vermont, and spent
happy hour with his old st. Adams friends.
About sunset, under The escort of Col. Yea
zey, Of Rutland, aud Col. Tracy, of Middle
bury, Gen Smith visited the camp of the
Vermont Veterans, where lie had a most
enthusiastic aud affecting welcome from
his old officers and men of the I'd division,
9th corps, this being the first visit TO the
Vermont soldiers that Gen. Smith has been
able TO make since the war,
Col. Neazey introduced him in neat,
manly little speech, 10 which Gen. Smith
responded very happily, saying in sub
stance, that while The men of Bennington,
under Stark, were doubtless very gallant
fellows, he had seen the men of old Yer
mont in their so.called degenerate days,
making a dashing assault on entrench-
ments, and as desperate and bitter a fight,
when themselves attacked by superior
numbers, as any OF Stark's boys could have
made. Gen. Smith explained that it bad
long been the ardent desire of his soul To
meet the men of his old command as he
now met them, but he had been unav oida
bly, absent until the present hour, and that
he now came at considerable sacrifice OF his
business convenience, to say from the bot
tom of his heart, to his old boys-Hail and
Farewell lin almost the same breath. The
admirable speech Of Gen. Smith was receiv-
ed with perfect storm of cheers. and Gen
Stannard, Col. Tracy and Col. Veazey then
introduced large numbers of the rank and
tile 10 Gen. Smith.-Bennington Banner.

"A prudent man is like pin; his head
prevents his going too far.
-"Lecture on Fools-Admit one," was
the inscription on a card of admission to a
discourse by Philadelphia clergyman the
other evening.
"A little girl, reading the "History Of
England" with her mother, and coming to
the statement that Henry /. never laughed
after the death of his son, looked up and
said, "What did he do when he was tick
led ?"
Last year we paid foreign countries
10000, 900 for wooden goods and $1,000, 900
for manufactured goods. When we have
in this country 20,0OO, 900 more sheep than
we have now we shall only produce the
wool we use, and yet there is no country
on earth where sheep can be raised so prof
itably as in the United States. But we are
coming every year nearer TO supplying our
own markets with the wool they demand.
In 1875 the wool clip of the country was
nearly 2O0,0OO,OOO pounds, while in 1850 1t
was only Go, 600, 600.
"A boy, while fishing in Wisconsin
lake the other day, felt a nibble, and, draw
ing his hook toward the shore, observed a
half gallon fruit can trailing on the bottom.
Having secured the vessel, he was greatly
surprised to find that q large catfish had taxi
en- up his abode therein, and remained I'M
Ill his increased dimensions did not admit
of egress. He had evidently Topped around
in his tin parlor until hole was made in
the rust eaten bottom, through which his
tail protruded. In this condition the cat
fish had power to navigate from one place
10 another, and must have been regarded
by his aquatic neighbors as kind of IRON
clad monitor.
"A valley has recently attracted atten-
lion on Kings river, Fresno county, Cali
fornis, which is forty-fve miles east to
west, and averages halfa mile wide at the
bottom. The Frensno Republican says :
sit lies 700 feet above the sea, and its
walls, which are 5000 feet high, are very
precipitous. In this valley new grove OF
colossal redwood trees has been discovered.
One of them eelipses all that has been dis
covered on the Pacific coast. It's circum
ference, as high as a man can reach and
pass tape-line around, is few inches less
than hundred and fifty feet. This is be-
You'd the measurement of any tree in Gala
veras grove. The height is estimated at 16C
feet, aud a part of the top, lying on the
ground, Is over 100 feet In length"

THE PRICE OF GoLD.-At l0:l5 A. NJ, yes
terday Saturday, Aug. 25) the price of gold
in legal tenders was quoted at 1035. This
is the lowest point that the gold premium
has touched since the month of June, 1862,
or over fifteen years. At the figures quoted
legal tenders for 500 were worth in gold
S96.35. or, in other words, the discount on
the government notes was but $3.50 per
cent. When we remember that in 1854 the
discount was for while so great that 500
in notes were worth but S35, this close ap-
proach TO equality between notes and pa
per is striking. 1t is also worth noticing
that the advance in the specie value OF
greenbacks goes on at an even pace with
the preparations for resumption according
to the existing provisions of law, with the
accumulation of gold in the treasury, and
with the subsiding of the movement in ia
vor of the reconciliation ofsilver, of which
comparatively little has been heard in some
time, and which the public is getting to re-
gard with very languid interest

Do FISH SLEEP?-A correspondent of
the Boston journal, writing from Wood
stock, tells the following story: "About 25
years since, when fishing in a small stream
in the town Of Plymouth, W., with q friend
of mine, we cams to a saw mill pond where
the water was about four feet deep, and
very still aud clear with the sun shining
bright We discovered large school of
trout on the bottom or the pond, apparent
ly perfectly dormant. With good degree
Of caution we dropped our well-baited
hooks down TO them. They did not appear
TO take any notice of it, or of us, who were
so anxiously waiting for a bite with all the
anxiety only known 10 those who are ac-
custOmed to that kind of sport. We tried
to induce them in every imaginable way
to notice the bait for about an hour, but TO
no effect When patience ceased TO be
virtue, l noticed there was one apart from
the rest, of good size. l determined TO try
an experiment with him by awakening
him. | dropped the hook and sinker di-
rectly upon him. He started of about six
feet, when he turned around and came
back with great eagerness and took the
hook and hauled him out, fine trout OF
about twelve ounces. We then came to the
undoubted conclusion that they were all
asleep. We continued the same expert
ment with each fish until we caught almost
the entire school, to the amount of six or
eight pounds"

WAsH-OUT ON THE NEW LONDON NORTH
ERN-SEvERAL TRAIN MEN INJUREDe-A
violent rain storm, which began in the
northeast and gradually veered TO the south
west, sci in at New London Saturday eve
ming and badly washed the road. bed of the
New London Northern railroad between
that city and Norwich. One wash out was
a short distance below Norwich and the
other two at Thamesville and Michigan, the
latter place flag-station about eight miles
north OF New London. AS the northward
bound accommodation train, which leaves
New London at SP. M, was within quar-
ter Of a mile of Michigan II came suddenly
upon the wash-out, which was in a culvert
20 feet long and 10 feet high. The track
was lefl in lis natural position, and the de-
feet was unobserved till the engine was up
on it. The engine, tender and baggage car
were hurled into the ravine which SO filled
it that the single passenger car was not
moved from the track. AS the engine went
down, it was struck by one of the iron rails
with such force that the latter penetrated
quite through the material of the boiler and
into the interior, breaking some of the
hues. Another portion of the rail was
thrown 60 feet. The bursting of the fues
instantly filed the cab with steam, and the
engineer and fireman leaped into the water,
escaping with their lives. The baggage-car
was telescoped by the tender and complete
ly wrecked. The passenger car suffered
only a tremendous shock. Fortunately,
only one passenger, Charles Bryant of Nor
witch, was injured. He got dislocation OF
the right elbow. Conductor Cady rushed
TO the assistance of the fireman and eDgin
eer, who were crawling from the wafer. As
they floated down stream, he hastily cut
the bell rope and threw it TO fireman Beebe,
who was thus drawn out. The engineer
crawled out without assistance. Six train
men we're more or less severely hurt. The
wounded men will all recover.
During the same storm, a stream in Pres
ton, across the river from Norwich, sud
denly overlooked its banks, and complete
ly Quilted the house occupied by negro
family named Tossett. The elder members
escaped, but three-years-old child, sleep
ing in one of the lower rooms, was swept
out of the house and drowned. The body
was found Sunday al Montville, eight miles
down the river.
