covered with the principal medical journals
not ouly of this country but of Europe.
The doctor is comparatively young, and
we venture to predict will be more widely
known in the future. Skill, science and
study must succeed. Mrs. Nelson, the
wife of one of our merchants, who has
been quite i'll, is nearly well. She was on
the train that came so near being smashed
up few days since, but was unirjured ex-
ctpt a nervous shock which proved more
dlsagreeable than dangerous. Crops in this
section are coming in freely and the farmer
will be in good spirits, especially IL he can
sell his abundance at remunetatlve pricee.
We are expecting to have a little more
pleasing excitement about bonding the
town for the railroad enterprise--tbat is,
unless the recent decision of the United
States court does not put queius con to
It,"
A few days since fine bear deliberately

FAIR HAVEN.
1t would perhaps be more opportune TO
date this letter on the steamer Montreal,
| Lake Champlain, as large minority of
| Fair Haven are now upon the waters of
| this lovely lake, where the scenery 10 ever
new and picturesque. On Thursday MORN
ing happy company left Fair Haven for
a trip down the lake to Burlington. The
party was of all ages, from to 35 years
old-minisiers, lawyers, doctors, judges,
colonies, merchants, etc. AS we arrived at
the lake the comfortable steamer Montreal
with her genial Captain Manville, was in
waiting for us. At 8 o'clock we sailed
down the lake. BY the time we left Shore
ham the party numbered about 500. The
sail through the lake was fine, with nothing
to mar the pleasure of the trip. AT 2 p. m.
our boat was made fast to the dock in Bur
lington. The party discmbarked to spend
the two hours IN The Queen city as lesl
suited them. Many went TO see friends
others filed a score of carriages, others
visited places of interest in the Queen city,
not only of Vermont but of New England,
at leas, her inhabitants treated the excur
sionists as though they were kings ant
queens.
Allow me to say one word of the Mon
treal as an excursion boat. She will carry
1000 passengers The past winter her hull
was thoroughly repaired. The whole bol
is given to excursion business. She is il
every respect safe and convenient. Gor
will find the affable Capt. Manyille, almos
omni present, ever watching for the com
fort of his passengers, and watchtul tha
no harm comes to them. The captain
wife is caring for the ladies and children
John Browns body is in the pilot house
not moulderiDg in the grave at North ElbA
He knows every inch of the lake as yol
pass through will point you to Mount De
fiance, Snake mountain, Rock Dander
Juniper island and Four Brothers who hav,
lived near each other for centuries, We
never spoke one to the other, and neve
quarrelled.
Lake Champlain is lovely sheet of wa
ter. The railroad company is disposed t.
carry excursions to the lake for q fai
price. The boat is safe and convenient
with gentlemanly, careful, competent OH
GERS. No town in Rutland county SHOULD
deprive themselves of the pleasure of al
Champaign.
The patty left on theiB return at 4 p. m.
had a lovely moonlight ride, beheld tn
moons eclipse, arrived at the dock il
Whitehall at 10 p. M, not the least thiDt
taking place to mar the pleasure of tn,
trip, ARRIVING home at a scasonable hou
with light, yous hearts. s.
