since been perfected for his removal to this place
week after next. He comes to hungry congre-

could the Ladies Societies /" in the various
churches of our state employ their time better
Just now than by needing the suggestion of a
home missionary's wife in the far west, that a
part of this extra crop be dried and sent to our
home missionaries, to whom 1t would be an in
valuable blessing? Ladies', why not convert one
or two "sociabes" into old-fashioned "paring
bees " for this purpose? 80. Look to your chin
neys. The Congreg ational society had occasion
to rebuild the chimneys Of the church, supposing
the only trouble to be above the roof. But on
examining below the roof, large holes were found
in them. and there is occasion for gratitude that
the house has not taken fire before now.

The Deaf Mute Exhibition.

The exhibition OF deaf mutes before the legisla-
ture last week Wednesday was one Of exceptional
interest, and was witnessed by very large and
appreciative audience Not only was every seat
occupied, but the asles also were crowded with
spectators, whose interest did not seem at all to
flag during the entire two hours Of the exhibit
ton. Mr.. Williams, the present principal Of the
Hartford institution, gave first brief but clear
statement Of the relation Of this and the other
New England states to the asylum. lie then, by
the very suggestive sign-making and correct writ
ing Of little Anna Marnock, from South Albany,
Vermont, pupil OF only one years standing, H.
Illustrated the earliest processes OF deaf-mute edu
cation as conducted at Hartford. Professor r. S.
Storrs the oldest OF the present corps OF Hartford
instructors, then exhibited some Of the more adj
vanced processes and results by the aid Of Misses
Julia Z, Gibson OF llartland, Vermont, and Nora
Noyes OF franklin Falls, New Hampshire and
Master Willie Ely OF Haddam, Connecticut, pu-
pills of five, four and six years standing, respect
lively. 1t is safe to say that the exercises of
these pupils were equal surprise and pleasure
to the audience By natural signs Professor
Storrs communicated the substance OF several
items from the Montpelier daily papers to the
pupils, who at once rapidly wrote out in their
own language the ideas conveyed. The examina-
ton of Miss Noyes in colonial history was GER
tany very remarkable We question whether
any OF our public schools can show pupils more
accurately Informed In this portion of history, as
related also to contemporaneous English history
Thefnethod Of instruction in arithmetic and in
the analysis Of the English sentence was also IL
Illustrated by Mr.. Williams and Professor Storrs,
with the aid Of the same pupils, in a manner
which must have convinced all OF the thorough
ness and success OF the methods employed at
Hartford. The exhibition concluded with some
very interesting and amusing exercises In panto-
mime, or natural acting, by Miss Noyes and Mas
ter Ely, which we have not space to describe. In
deed, such exercises must be seen to be appre-
ciated, but the frequent and enthusiastic applause
Of the audience testified their full appreciation Of
them An exhibition so interesting and convinc-
ing must, we should suppose, bear speedy fruit to
the advantage Of all Vermont deaf mutes not yet
enjoying the privileges afforded at Hartford.

WRESTLING MATCH The wrestling match,
which took place at the town hall In Barre on
Monday evening, between Mr.. A. W. Lane OF
Barre and Mr.. John w. Phillips of Nashua, New
Hampshire, was rare treat 10 the "sportiDg
men +" of Barre and vicinity. Mr.. Lane is a we'll
known champion wrestler, and was never beaten
by man of his weight Recently he has taken
no active part in wrestling, except as referee in
several important contests, when such men a.
Dufur, Flagg Owens, Cox and others partcl-
pated. His age is forty-seven years and his
weight one hundred thirty pounds. Mr.. Phillips
is the champion wrestler Of the state OF New
Hampshire, is twenty-eight years OF age and
weighs one hundred thirty-four pounds lie has
won several matches when such men as DR.. Clark
and NJ urray Buck OF New Hampshire Goodwin OF
St. Johns, New Brunswick, tuckman, OF two
hundred fifteen pounds weight, participated His
last match and victory was with c. II. Burt Of
South Troy, the reputed champion Of Vermont
Owing to the celebrity OF the participants the hall
was well filled at an early hour, and, although
there was an animated variance in the minds of
those present as to which should be the winning
man, it was controlled by that good nature
which could applaud the one and appreciate the
efforts OF the other and order prevailed through
out the evening. The referee was Mr. George
W. Flagg OF Braintree umpire for Lane, Mr. A.
N. Blanchard OF Barre; umpire for Phillips, Mr.
Frank Gypson OF Portland, Maine. At few
minutes past eight o'clock the referee appeared
on the platform and announced that the match
should be best three In FIVE collar and elbow, but
II each party won two falls, then the match
should be determined by one at side hold After

DUxBURy CoRNER.-Friday, October 80, was a
day to be remembered at Duxbury Corner by the
pupils OF the select school, taught by the popular
teacher, Miss M. j. Cressy, whose closing exer-
cses were an entertainment to their many friends
assembled in their tastefully decorated school
room. Where all did so well, from sweet sixteen
to the little OF ive it is hard to particular
ize, but all gave evidence Of the uniring zeal Of
the teacher and the hearty cooperation of the
pupils. The exercises were interspersed with
songs, duets and choruses, which were well rem
dered by the scholars under the skilliul direction
Of Mrs. Eber Huntley, who presided at the organ,
thus rendering efficient aid to the teacher by her
gratutous efforts to add to the pleasure Of the
occasion. At the close there was a presentation
of token, showing the esteem in which Miss
Greasy is held by her pupils
