FLAG RAISING AT WAITsFIELD. Fri
day, the 18th instant, the citizens of
Waitsfeld and vicinity turned out in large
numbers to witness the hosting of the
Garfield and Arthur flag at Watsfield
village. The large number of ladies
present showed that the fair sex are not
without interest in the political campaign,
though not allowed to express their pref.
erence at the ballot box.
Seats were arranged in the spacious
and shady grounds of j. II, Hastings
ESQ, so that the audience could listen to
the excellent address of c. H. Joyce, moi
only with interest but comfort also.
The speaker was most enthusiastically
welcomed here in his boyhood's home
and we noticed that the gallant colonel has
grown older in appearance since he was
last among us. but his oratory has no
deterorated, and was quite as effective a:
of old.
After music by the Waitsfield corne
band, Col. Joyce gave a brief history Of
the two antagonistic parties from thu
merging of the old free-soilers and whig
in the republican party in 1854 until the
present time; and certainly his showing
was rather damaging athe democratic
party. There was sprinkling of demo
Gratis among his audience who evtdentl.
did not enjoy his sharp hits quite as wei
as :heir republican neighbors.
The address was interrupted by th
arrival of the Moretown band. who dis
cou rsed sweet music as they came; bu
order was soon restored, and the speake
resumed his address, and held the atten
ton of his audience closely to its close.
In the evening the people we're agai
addressed by F. Plumley, Esq. OF NORTH
field, and C. F. Clough of Waterbury
, Clough showing up the issues of tn
greenback party.
The fire balloons that were to have bee
sent up in the evening were not a success
the high wind prevailing making it i'm
. practicable to do so.
The democratic party has few follower
in this valley, but the faithful few propos
to hoist Hancock and English flag Ell
f long, though whether there arc to b
other exercises | am not at present il
formed: but send on your most effectiv
speakers, by all means. Messrs. Atkin'
Co., for if ever democracy needed bracin

NEW YORK, August 26th.-The

Sherman.Hancock correspondence,
from which the following extracts
are made: December 4th, '76.
Sherman, in granting Hancock's
appl icstion for leave Of absence to
go to Carondelet, Missouri. hopes
soon that events will admit of a
return to their posts of the compa-
MES detached from the South, add
ing: But every time I make q move

tary of War, were not military. !

used In connection with a iegisla.
tive body, but orders coming from
the President have to be obeyed.
They form a bad precedent, but
thus far have prevented a collision
of arms between inflamed par
tizans.
In another letter. December 18th,
Sherman assures Hancock that his
mind may rest at peace about be-
ing ordered from New York. There
is not word of truth In it. No se-
rious changes In command are con-
templated; when they are you ma,
be sure will give you the earlies,

How a Cat Caushta Sleeping Clam.
New York World.1

A clam, of the large, hard shell
species, taken at the Narragansett
beach, with grip like vice, had
been left lying loose, and had open
ed its mouth wide for a breath of
with 1t open, when a grimalk
CHANGED to pass that way, and, in
haling the scent Of the delicious
morsel, forthwith commenced
search, which revealed the where.
abouts of the bivalve. Pussy was
hound to possess the clam. eau
tiously, yet earnestly, she went to
work. First she walked round and
round 1t, eyeing 1T on every side.
Then she poked 1t with her paw,
turning 1t round and round. The
clam by this time had got its eyes
open. Its curiosity was aroused to
see what the cat would do. Next
pussy tried to insert its nose be.
tween the shells. The clam knew
she couldn't do it. and lay there and
laughed in his sleeve. Next
pussy inserted one of her paws be.
tween the shells and rapidly with
drew 1t, watching Its effect on the
objective point. Not a muscle
however, did his clsmship move,
not 80 much as an eye.winker
Emboldened by this, puss put her
paws full upon the coveted carcass
Of the bivalve. The latter winked
with one eye, as much as to say :
"Now, my lady, I've got you'll" as,
bringing those two jaws OF his to
gether with o snap, he held the
cats paw with q grip that filled
her with asionishment. First
came q spit, then o prolonged yell,
| alternately, and series Of gyra
tions that would have done honor
to circus performer. She spaked
that clam ell over the yard, up
against . doorstep, between two
feuee-pickets and over q stone wall.
But the clam meant business, and
wnuIdn't let go. Finally the cries
and antics Of the poor creature
brought Two men to the scene, and
by their efforts the grip Of the clam
was looseDed and puss released.
