STATE POI CS.-Tho interest in the
coming national convention has appar.
emily kept back much talk about state
affairs, but within u week several news
papers have commented on affairs nearer
home. Mr.. Barlow is reported to have
had enough of congressional affairs; his
business ways don't make him like body
of men who are "all mouth and no ears. ~
His withdrawal is thought to make pretty
certain Gen. Grout'sSnominaton and cleo
ton. In the second district there will be
no opposition to the return of Mr.. TYLER
of course. In this district it is announced
that Gov. Stewart will be Il candidate be-
fore the convention. Col Joyce's name
may be also presented, and it is said that
Bennington county, in whose favor the To-.
cality argument is, will also have candi-
date. Gov. Stewards ability and popular
ity are likely to give him the nomnatio
For the governorship it is not known
whether DIR. Nichols will allow his name
to be used, and it is announced that Mr..
Billings and Col. Mead are not in the
field. Gov. Proctor would have great
strength and many would be heartily glad
to see the one term rule broken in his case
as it might be were he candidate we
think. 1t is said that increased business
duties are such that he will not consent to
this. Many newspapers have lately declar-
ed in favor Of Col. Farnham, and it now
looks as though his nomination, which all
concede would be good one, may be
made without opposition.

MARsHFIELD.-Dr. L. .. Nettloton, of
Wells River, stops at Meader's hotel on
Friday and Saturday to do dental work.

richness of its eggs, good constitution and
rapid fattening. The Rouen is pronounced
only slightly inferior in flavor and in
quality of eggs to the above. natures
earlier and is harder. The Avlesbury
and Pekin commence laying in February
and continue five months, with two or
three brief intermissions. When the duck
wants to set she should have from twelve
to fifteen eggs and should sit in a separate
division of the duckhouse kept for This
purpose. The door should ALWAYS be omen
during the day, and should have sufficient
water near by to battle in. The time of
incubation is twenty-eight days. After the
ducklings are all Matched they should not
be disturbed for twenty-four hours. when
they are ready for food, which should
consist of hard boiled eggs well MIXED
with oatmeal. When three or four davs
old they may have oatmeal mixed win

shoulu not nave access to water except to
drink, until they receive their feathers
when they can swim without injury.

From Vick's Magazine we take two
useful hints to flower growers. The first
relates to a Gala lily which, bought at Il
green house, soon began to droop and
turn yellow: - procured three gallon
grazed crock, filled it two-thirds full of
rich earth, rs you recommend, and then
put in the plant and filled nearly to the
brim with water, which have kept at
about that level ever since, adding now
and then few drops of ammonia. To-
day, my Gala stands four feet high, with
four broad, dark green leaves; stalk ut
the water line is as large as my wrist, and
two flower stems are appearing" The
second describes a better way with the
oleander than the usual one OF allowing ii
to grow without training, in the desire tc
procure blossoms at the earliest possible
moment: I'm starting from cutting,
my practice is to pinch off the shoots
above the second or third joint, or more il
desired, and the reward for such practice
is double and sometimes treble, the mum
ber!of shoots, which may again be pinched,
thus producing compact, bushy head
which is in itself Al ornament; besides,
the plant is vigorous and able to support Il
large number Of clusters of flowers"

COPPER MINING IN VERMONT The Ely

owned and worked by the Vermont copper
company. whose capital is S500,O0O Ovel
sixty years have elapsed since the first dis.
covery of copper ore at this place, and We,
the yield OF copper was never so large as
it is at present. The depth of the mine is
now $500 feet on an angle of about twenty.
five degrees. The mine has been WORKED
twenty-seven years, and has about twenty
smelling stacks and thirty roasting sheds
This NINE according to statistics of 1879
is next to the largest producing copper
mine in the United States, the Calmet and
llecla only exceeding ii. 1t yielded last
year IA, 10000 pounds, against 10000 in

of partially developed mines. in one OF

The following scrap of history was en-
bodied in an adverse report made by the
Senate committee of pensions last week
1t appears from the papers that Jennie
Wade, daughter of the petitioner, wa.
killed in the battle of Gettysburg on the
Sd day of July, 1868, within the Union
lines, and while she was engaged in bak
ing bread for Union soldiers. Her house
was located near the top of Cemetery hill
and was occupied, during the battle by
Union sharp.shooters. and while engaged
as aforesaid, in the kitchen of said house
she was shot. The ball passed through the
outside kitchen door and entered the small
of her back, just below her left shoulder.
She expired instantly. Sho was the sole
support other mother-the petitioner. The
committee is. however, of opinion in the
absence of evidence to the contrary. that
said Jennie Wade was exposed to this peril
of her own volition, there being no proof
that Union soldiers were in need of bread,
and it is not unfair to presume that she
was engaged in an occupation from which
some personal benefit was derived.
A six-years-old son of NJ. w. Smith of
Poultney was found the other day drowned
in the river. lying in few inches of water.
The little fellow had been playing with a
companion on tho bank of the river, and.
