A Distinguished Visitor.

CHARLES Carleton Coffin, the noted war
correspondent and author. was in town
Wednesday. He has in preparation Il
new work, a historical romance, which
is to treat of the Revolutionary history
of Bennington between ITO and 1880; its
conflicts with New York, the early meet.
ings here of the patriots, Warner, Allen
and others, and the Battle-and OF Yer
mont, the capture of Ticonderoga by
Allen, and the battle of HubbardtOn
During his visit here Mr.. Coffin called
upon several people who are versed in
the town early history, and before his
return to Boston will visit the Battle
grounds. He left in the afternoon for
Ticonderoga and HubbarGton.
In May, HOughtOn, Mifflin d Company
of Boston, issued volume by Mr.. Coffin,
1.-THE Daughters of the Revolution" 1t
was intended for use as historical read
er-history in story form. 1t has been
received with such merited success that
he decided to continue his writings in
this direction. History in story form
has strong attractions for the young,
and in story form MIR. Coffin is to teach
the young people the glorious struggles
for liberty of the ancestors of Benning-
toms citizens, and those of Vermont aud
the bordering States.
Bennington and its Catamount Tavern
will bear leading and important part.
The old Tavern Mr.. Coffin regards as the
birthplace of the Revolution, for there
was held, about 1772, the first meeting
of the Patriots to arrange for armed re-
sistence to the approaching New York
forces, who were acting, virtually, under
directions from the Crown. The new
work will probably be issued in the early
part of next summer and will be of deep
interest to every Benningtonian and Yer
monter.
During the war Mr.. Coffin was the
noted correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal. and his reputation for courage and
efficiency in seeking and forwarding the
news from the scenes of action is not
surpassed by any living war correspond.

Mr.. Coffin is an extensive writer His

VIGILANT AND DEFENDER.

Likely to Meet in Race Sntur-
day.
The Vigilant, which arrived at Newport
Monday evening, went up to Bristol yes
terday in charge of Capt. Charlie Barr and
from her tuning up in New Jersey waters
and her crew are anxious for a brush with
her new rival. They say she is very fast
this year, and believe she will give the
Defender a hard pull in the trial races.
Her officers think she is several minutes
faster than last season, and If the Defender
can beat her they feel confident that the
cup is surely safe. At Bristol she will take
on board her new suit of sails. just COM
pieted, and will remain at least a week.
Although men in large numbers have
been hard at work on the Defender since
Sunday, there still remains large amount
of fitting to be done. This, it is hoped
can be finished so that she will be able to
meet the Vigilant Saturday. The latest in
formation obtained leads to the belief
that the Defenders main sail measures
about G,3S5 square feet, nearly 100 square
feet more than the Vig.lant's but some
what smaller than that spread by the
tenders hollow boom is still at City Is
land, ard Will remain there until the yacht
goes to the westward, and the sails being
made by Boston firm are not yet COM
pleted.
Experts have estimated the Defenders
excess Of speed over the Colonia in beat
ing to windward Sunday as one minute
to the mile and in running before the wind
twenty seconds to the mile. This was
with an ill-fitting topsail and no tib topsail
IN going against the wind, and without her
Dig Splnnaker in running free.
