The farmers OF Vermont receive more cash
for butter than for any other single product
which they sell 1t is a favorable showing
for the agriculture Of the state that this prod
uct has more than doubled since 1850. The
increase in the thirty years from 1850 to
1850 was 10, 1903, 600 pounds The increase
alone was 965, 600 pounds more than oil that
was made thirty years ago. Nor is this all
there has been d great improvement in the
quality Of the butter, as well Is an increase
in the quantity. If the census figures ap-
proaeh accuracy the increase in the value of
the product is greater than the figures show
There has been an increase in the number
Of all kinds Of live stock except working OK
en- and sheep The number Of working OK
en- has decreased 10 all the states in conse-
quence of the substitution of horses Yer.
mont has less than half as many sheep as
we're found in the state in 1850, but the i'm
provement in the quality Of the hocks has
been such that the value Of the wool and
mutton product is probably as great now as
it was then.
The value of live stock in Vermont was
reported greater by the census Of 1850 than
by any previous census except that Of 1870,
when gold was at an average premium of %
per cent, and live stock was sold at extrava.
giant prices.
In 1880 the state had 2OO, 600 more young
cattle than it had in 1850, about 10 600 more
swine, and IA 900 more horses There has
been decrease in the production Of pota
toes, and in some of the minor products,
which are more than offset by gains in 9th
ers. For some reason not apparent Vermont
is the one state that has made no substantial
gain in population yet the belief that her ag-
riculture is declining is entirely erroneous,
as the figures given above conclusively prove
The value of. the agricultural products Of
Vermont thirty years or more ago were never
SO great as they will be the next favorable
season.

Agricultural,


The average annual product Of corn 10
Vermont is now about 500 600 bushels great
er than It was 10 or 20 years ago. In 1879
the yield was $4,000 bushels more than in
1863. There has been an increase in the
number Of bushels Of oats raised in the state
as shown by each successive census since
1850. At the latter date the product was 2,
3O7. 900 bushels by the census Of 1850 it
was 3,742 600, or ,435 900 bushels more
than in 1880. Though it is generally be.
lieved that the hay crop in this state has
been diminishing, year by year, for long
time, the census shows that, taking an aver
age Of years, there has been a gradual in
crease Of this product for the last thirty
years or more. The hay crop Of Vermont is

a Ghostly Visitor at w esternpOrt.

The peaceful little village of Western
port, in Allegheny county, Nd, has been
disturbed for the past two weeks by the
sudden appearance Of mysterious being
i'm male attire, whose whereabouts in the
daytime cannot be asccrtaincd. lie has
been frequently seen in one locality, and
always dressed in-the same sombrc attire.
Though as yet he has molested no one, he
Is dreaded by many. One lady sat up
nearly all night to watch his movements,
but failed to find anything. Another,
whose husband was away from home,
passed the night in terror, fearing visit
from the ghostly being. Nearly every
night, about an hour before twelve o'clock,
this spirit from an unknown world APP
pears on WesternpoIt Hill, above the line
of the Cumberland and Pennsylvania
Railroad, and with his head slightly bent
forward carefully notes everything within
the range of his spiritual vision. When
an attempt is made to approach him he
mystcriously disappears from mortal Wis
ion, Withdrawing in the direction of the
old Westernport graveyard, which has
not been visited for years. He leaves no
trace behind him, and all attempts to make
him out or capture him have failed. The
town authorities are anxiously consider
ing what course to pursue. The whole
community is greatly excited. Ghost
stories pass from mouth to mouth, and
many wonderful accounts of the mysteri-
GUS appearance and disappearance of OBJ
jects are told. 1t is said that two little
children have been carried off in some un-
accountable way from their homes, and
no clue to their disappearance has boen
found. An investigation has been pro-
posed by Il number of citizens, but such is
the disturbed state of things that nothing
definite can be agreed upon.

learn that certain persons are quietly
circulating a rumor to the effect that NOT
outstanding l declined in my letter OF
March 18th to be candidate for yestry-
man, am still seeking an election.
not only repeat that am not candi-
date, but wish il distinctly understood that
under existing circumstances l cannot
serve if elected, and trust this will be ac-
cepted as final.
And i'm view Of the occurrences OF the
past few weeks in the church and out OF
it; the conduct and methods resorted TO
to provoke issues; the hatred and malice
manifested by those whose position ought
to be more exemplary, can only BAY to
those who kindly rendered me their sup
port and expressed themselves in sympa-
thy with my views in church matters,
that it will be most agreeable to ne II
they take no active part whatever in the
election.
| am reluctant to see them involved in
any contest, which my own sense Of pro-
pIlelS as u ChuiChh"h ioiD' e"',S
should participate la.
1t is humiliating to confess such con-
dition of sentiment and feeling in the
church, but it is too plain to be ignored.
AS every churchman must do, sincerely
deplore it but it only affirms the truth OF
my recent letters touching the lack, in the
past, of proper church training.
Thoroughly educated in the tenets and
doctrines of the church, and taught to
practice the duties of churchmen, such a
condition would be an impossibility.
Its very existence is itself the indis-
putablc and conclusive evidence Of the abb
sence, in Trinity Church, of that very re-
fning and slevating church influence
spoken of, and of the sad need for the best
interests of the church, Of early and earn
est attention to supplying this manifest
want.
Again thanking my friends for devo-
ton, repeat, stand by your principles
and preserve your integrity as churchmen
No triumph in the result of the election
can compensate for any compromise OF
position or self respect in attaining It..
Still hope for better things, and patiently
bide their coming.
