Reports from other sections indicate that the cold weather and frosts visited other places. Potato bugs are very plenty here, and our correspondents from various localities report the same thing. Amid the frosts and the bugs, there will be work in raising potatoes this year. But let us not worry about it as long as the old ones are so plenty and cheap. We 6ee it reported that Alfred Jones, formerly of this village, and John Bailey, one of the directors of Barton National Bank, went from Wells River to the head waters of the Connecticut, on a week's fishing tour, and returned with 200 pounds of trout If the farmers in this vicinity will take the pains to visit Murkland's machine shop, they will find it worth their while to look over his agricultural machinery, plows, cultivators, horse hoes, horse powers for churns, churns, sugar arches, all set up and ready for operation.

Yesterday was observed as Floral Sabbath at the M. E. church. The weather was unfavorable, but a large number of plants, flowers, bouquets and birds were carried in, and the house was pretty well adorned. Exercises by the Sunday School added to the interest of the occasion.

We see by the daily Herald of Rutland, that P. Red field Kendall, an Orleans county boy, was called upon to deliver the Decoration Day address in that town. The address was wise, patriotic and eloquent, and reflected much credit on Mr. Kendall. We are glad to see our boys climbing up, wherever they may be.

Mr. 0. May, whose memory contains all the facts and incidents in the early history of this town, adds the following to the list which was given, last week, of soldiers buried in this place John Morrison, Paul Seekins, John Adams Joseph Hyde and Elias Bingham, revolutionary soldiers; Otis Peck, Moses Spalding, Philip Colby and Andrew Fol8om, of the war of 1812. Our readers will notice the column advertisement of Dr. Smyth, who is now at Newport having a great patronage and much success in his particular sphere of diseases.

We know nothing about him personally, but have seen persons who have received much benefit from his treatment, and are also ac quainted with some of those who give him their heartiest endorsement. They are reliable persons. There will be a Strawberry Festival at the Vestry of the Congregational church, next Wednesday evening. The proceeds for the benefit of the Sunday school.

The Barton orchestra, of five pieces, will furnish music for the occasion. All are invited. By the death of Gilbert Ellis, this village and town mourns the loss of one of the oldest and most esteemed citizens. Mr. Ellis was born in Claremont N.

in 1795 and was at the time of his death a little over 83 years of age. Having learned the saddlers trade he first set up in business at Barre, Vt, where he married Rebecca Pollard. In 1823 he moved into this town and from that day to this, with the exception of the last few years which he has spent in Sutton with his son, he has been in business here. He built the house in which he bo long resided, in 1824, and there reared his family. His companion died in 1872.

During his lifetime he held various offices of trust in town, and in every capacity be was scupulously honest and faithful. He was an excellent neighbor, an exemplary Christian, a noble man. His last few years have been filled with infirmities, but he has peacefully gone to his rest BARTON LANDING. Lewis Stimpson is increasing his facilities for making brick by building a new yard adjoining his old one. The play of the Reform Club entitled "Last Loaf," was excellent and well performed but we think the farce, "Virginia Mummy," js not of the "reform" order.

The town can afford to support the family if they can be rid of Hawse. COVENTRY. At the Club meeting, on Friday evening, the farce, "A Strike on the Horse Car Railroad" will be played. At the last meeting the lecture of Rev. A.

H. Webb more than met the expectation of the audience. It has been announced that there will be a celebration here on July 4th, day and evening. Dining tables will be set in the new church, with a strawberry festival in the town hall in the evening. Program in due season.

'We expect to attend the Temperance convention to be held at Craftsbury, on Wednesday, and shall be pleased to receive money due us on subscription accounts from parties in that vicinity. We have some accounts over that way that are getting altogether too large.

A well dressed man, with a good team, visited this town, recently, selling spectacles. Visiting the residence of two aged ladies, he stole a set of gold-bowed glasses valued at $5, and left in their place a pair of cheap ones. The thief has escaped. Look out for him GLOVER. Mr.

It is an enigma to the republican voters here why Barlow is supported so earnestly for Congress by bo sulphurous and rabid a democrat as Atkins of the Argus Patriot. The citizens of this town- are discuss- ing the propriety and feasibility of having a celebration here the 4th of July next The gathering here two years ago was a very pleasant affair, and there is no reason why the town may not have another equally as good, if the citizens will interest themselves in the undertaking. A meeting has been called to discuss the "ways and means." We are in receipt of a long communication from the captain of the base ball club of Irasburgh, in regard to our item of last week in regard to the trouble between the "Mystics" of the Landing, and the "Centrals" of Irasburgh. The gist of the letter is that the matched game had commenced, when two smart players from Barton Village arrived, and claimed right to play with the "Mys tics. The "Centrals objected, but the umpire decided that they had a right to 1 1 urn piay, tnereupon tne lrasburgn boys re fused to play.

At the time the playing stopped, the "Centrals" had scored 4, the "Mystics' 1. The "Centrals" now challenge the "Mystics" for a new game on their ground.

A couple of well-dressed men called at Lawrence's store, a few days since, when one of them asked to purchase some salt pork. As Mr. Lawrence went into the back store to get the pork, one of the men followed him and remained with him until the pork was put up. In the meantime, as the result proved, the other was helping himself to the money in the money drawer. The thief asked to let the pork remain a few minutes: while he stepped out, saying he would return and pay for it The rascals tried the same trick in other places, but fail ed.

The people of Cin cinnati are greatly excited over an outrage perpetuated upon the grave of John bcott Harrison, son of the late President Harrson, whose death occured at North Bend, about two weeks since. It had been rumored that grave-snatchers were in the vicinity and unusual precautions were taken to secure the grave against robbery, At the time of the burial it was discovered that the grave of one Devins had been rifled, and John Harrison, a son of the deceased, at once proceeded to the Medical College in Cincin nati, to search for the body. Employing a detective they made a thorough search, and at last found, in the upper story, a windlass which, on being turned, brought from the cellar a human body. rsut instead oi being the one they were in search of, young Harrison at once onized the face of his own father, whose body had been buried in North Bend only 24 hours before.

A FEW WORDS TO THE PUBLIC. This Colt has been raised in our midst and the Pedigree here given and known to be correct, shows clearly that he is thorougbred and stands as closely connected with the best Morgan horses that VeimoDt has ever produced, as any horse now before the public Said Colt is 4 years old this June, is over 15 bands high, weighs 106a is a beautiful Iron Gray, is well broke to harness, kind and docile, his form, figure, action and disposition well marked by the known traits of character which has rendered Morgan horses so valuable and desirable for all kinds or horse labor. Two years ago he was allowed to serve a few mares several of these colts, now one year old, can be seen in this vicinitv. One vear ase he was allowed to cover nine teen mares, a few of which have foaled.

Hence I invite all desirous of raising a good and valuable style of horses, to call and examine the Colt and his Stock for themselves, prefernne to let every man be his own judge. This Horse will be kept for service this Season at my own stable, wnere au are requested ran auu examine for themselves.

17, 1877. Dk.8. W. Smyth: Dear Sir, I take the opportunity again to express my gratitude for the great benefit received under your treatment some seven years since. At the time I was Buffering from a catarrhal affection and ulcerated sore throat, which had impaired my general health to an alarming extent.

I had been under the care of some of the best regular physicians both in this place and Burlington, had received no permanent benefit but was rapidly and surely growing worse, when I consulted you. I saw you but once, yet after following-up your prescribed remedies for a few weeks, the throat trou bles entirely disappeared, and my general health became as good as formerly. It is but ust to add, thr during this lapse of time, the disease has never again appeared. I would also say in behalf of Mrs. Gleed that your treatment of her case for Bronchial Catarrh some four years since, was very successful effecting a cure in two or three months.

Most earnestly can I recommend you to my friends and the public at large as a phys ician deserving the utmost confidence. Very respectfull yours, PHILIP K. GLEED. It litis been Customary in old commueities to suspend pieces of stick sulphur around the necks of children as a protection against contagion la epidemics. A thorough wasning with ulkhh a sulfhob boap nas been found a much better preventative.

He also has a strain of the fast and stout Pilot blood and the fast Clay blood ail based on thoroughbred running blood. He is very stylish, a good stepper having a record in 8:51 and is so bred that he cannot rail to give satisfaction to those patronizing him. For description, pedigree and terms, see circulars.

I am aware that a very strong preju dice exists among regular practitioners (and in most cases it is just) against travelling physicians and "medical specialists," and therefore I am particular to have it understood that I regard Dr. Smyth as a skillful and thoroughly competent practitioner, and an honorable gentleman.

In those branches of medicine and surgery to which Dr. Smyth gives especial attention, I have known of his effecting most wonderful cures. In Aural and Ophthalmic surgery, I consider him an honor to the profession. WM. S.

and Mrs. Carmody, whose daughter, Mary, you so skillfully operated on for blindness a short time since. Words fail to express the gratitude they feel towards you, for at the time yon was called to see Mary, by her attending physician, no hopes were entertained of saving one of her eyes, as you are aware that her eye bursted and a portion of the inside run out. Yes, Doctor, yon have placed as all under lasting obligations for your timely aid, skillful operation and kind attention with the family physician to Mary, who had suffered so much, which has not only saved the eye from total destruction but has restored it to per- feet vision. Hoping you may live long to be a blessing to additional thousands, I remain truly yours, CHAS.
