Cruelty to Axiuals. A certain Willi ton farmer ought to be ashamed of himself. Friday afternoon, be kept a couple of blooded calves, apparently three months old, confined in a cage, two by four feet, in a team in front of the Free Press office for full three hours in the broiling sun. The p or things evidently suffered greatly, and uian good citizens expressed them-clves in terms of righteous indignation over tho owner's cruel conduct.

Atwater acting as Secretary iiro inn.

Various questions were asked of the committee, and important sugges tions wcro made, by several gentlemen present, in regard to the most suitable and efficient measures for carrying on the work. Statements were made showing the salutary effect, to a certain extent, of the demonstra tions recently made, and that no change of purpose was thought of by any of those con cerned in the enterprise. A resolution was offered and carried unanimously, that full confidence be expressed in the wisdom and fidelity of the committee, and that the thanks of the meeting be extended to them for their efficient service and tho progress they have madethus far, when tho meeting adjourned. . s Superintendent Parker, of the Passumpsic Ilailroad, has promulgated an order strictly forbidding the careless and improper hand ling of all baggage by employes of the road. Strike at Fort Henry. SEVENTEEN HUNDRED SI EX ENGAGED IX IT. The Port Henry Iron Ore Company "Witherbees, Sherman & Co., and several other firms, on 'Wednesday last discharged 1,700 men, members of tho Miners' As sociation, who had struck. It seems that a few days ago one of the foremen discharged a man for some good and sufficient reason. The Miners' Association straightway hclda meeting, decided that tho foreman was wrong, expelled him from the association, and forthwith demanded that because he was not a member of tho association, he could not work in the mines, and he must be discharged immediately. This, the pro prietors, altera strict investigation into the cause of the trouble, decided not to do. Than the nltimatum came from the mines, " Discharge him or we ;strike." Tlie gauntlet thus thrown down, the owners quickly picked up, with "Striko if you wish;" and strike they did. As nono of them went to work on Wednesday morning, the owners ordered all tho tools brought up, tho entrances locked, and steam blown off from tho hoisting engine. This is tho present condition of affairs. The miners say they will go to work when the owners will come to their terms. The owners decline to do so and are prepared for a siege. Fears are expressed that much trouble will result from the miners' movement. Port Henrv Tue Strike. The strike among the miners is confined to the Moriah mines, and has not extended to tho Chcever mino and consequently docs not affect the Port Henry furnaces. The strikers number eleven hundred. Monday was the " last day of grace" for them, the company having notified tbcm that if they did not begin work on Monday, the mines would be closed for six months, when new hands would bo em ployed. It was understood at Port Henry, Monlay, that the miners had not yielded, and it was suppo-cd the mines at Moriah would consequently suspend. It is general ly characterized as a particularly foolish strike. In the month of July, 1S1G, ice formed to the depth of common window glass through out the Stato. Tho hay crop will bo more than the aver age in this county. In most of the towns, it will be larger and better than last year. A. M.

Tho Plattsburgh Sentinel reports a gniat deal of sickness and mortality among the children of Plattsburgh. Early in the sea son tho measles bad a great run. The whooping cough followed and is still quite prevalent and vry severe, uany adults having had a touch of it, called " chin cough." And now, summer complaints are getting to bo frequent and fatal. Missing. Beverly Donelson, a quiet, in dustrious colored man, of Cambridge, who has worked for and made his home with George Austin, of that town, for two or three years past, on tho Fourth left to at tend the celebration at Burlington, evident ly intending to return, since which he has not been hoard from, though diligent in quiries have been made. He is nearly six feet in height and about 21 years of age. Tho money drawer in tho office of the Bardwcll House, Rutland, was robbed of about 1G0, Friday morning, about i o'clock, wiiilo tho porter went up stairs to call the guests. A fellow, who was sitting in the office when the porter went up stairs, but who was gono away when be returned, was, doubtless, tho thief, and will probably bc captured, as the officers are on bis track. Boys and girls, beware of green apples. In New York a boy named Archibald Mc- Intire ate inordinately of green apples and peaches on Wednesday night. Within an hour he wn suffering with terrible cramps in his stomach.

The tower and steeple of the new Methodist Church are finished. The structure is a beauty, doing honor to the designer and workmen. No finer church edifice is to bo found in these psrt-i.

John McGovcrn had a valu able six 3 car old horse strangled, one day last week, by tho animal getting his hind foot over the halter, which was tied around his neck. He was nearly dead when found in tho morning. Tho farmers will generally finish haying the present week, somo have already. The hay crop is better than last year. Corn, oats and potatoes are looking finely. Tho apvle orchards blossomed very full last spring, but for the late cold weather or some other cause, a light crop will bo har vosted. A IlEAvr Fall. Tho heavy weight at tached to the striking part of tho town clock in tho tower of tho Congregational church, at Middlebury, weighing about 1,400 pounds, lost its controlling power one day last week by tho disarrangement of the fan wheel, and started for terra Crma with such unusual speed, that the wheel and other " fixings " wcro broken and sent whizzing in every direction. Hearing Before Ciiaxcellor Rotce. A hearing was had at St. Albans on Satur day before Chancellor Royce in Chambers in the matter of tho petition by tho Ver mont and Canada road, asking to bring an action of ejectment against .tho receivers and managers of the Vermont Central road by written argument filed by counsel, on the ground of a violation of a condition of the ca-o by the non-payment of rent, which under tbe compromise decree, they claim, en titles them to resume possession of their property.

Pearl, Principal of the New Hampshire State Normal School at Ply mouth in that State, died on Monday, tho 4th int. Mr. Pearl was born at Albany ,Vt., July 27, 1633 and was the son of Benjamin Pearl of that place. Ho was fitted for col lege at tho academy in Craftsbury, and en tered tho University of Vermont in 1855. Ho was graduated with honor four years later. Among his classmates were Messrs. Charles E. Allen and II. II. Talcott, of this city. Soon after his graduation ho was married to Miss Lydia White, of Craftsbury, and en tered on his chosen profession of teacher at Danville, Canada, whero he remained until 1SG3, when he took chargo of the academy at Johnson, Vt. Here he continued to teach until 1SG7, when tho academy became one of the thrceNormal Schools of the State. Mr. Pearl's marked success as a teacher, as well as acknowledged influenco and inter est in tho causo of education, induced the State Board of Education to unanimously nominate him for tho position of Principal or the new Normal School at Johnson, a nomination which met with the approval of tho Trustees of the School. This position ho continued to hold till 1871, when be was induced to accept a similar position in the New Hampshire Stato Normal School at Plymouth. Unassuming in his manner, possessing a quiet, retir ing disposition, with tho habits and diligence of a true scholar, Mr. Pearl did not attract public attention so much by the the brilliancy of his acquirements as by the practical and solid character of bis qualifi cations as a successful educator. His gen ial nature and sterling integrity won the confidence and esteem of those with whom bo had to do, and the reputation ho ac quired in his profession, during the com paratively few years in which he was al lowed to discharge its duties, extended far beyond the fields of his labor. HLs health, never very firm, gradually yielded to the confinement of his work, and bis death at the last was not unexpected by his friends. He leaves a wife and two children to mourn his loss. TheSeri'Ent ix Sheldurx Bv. Mr. J. P. Farmer, who had a "sight" of the ma rine monster in Shclburn Bay.has called on us and told his story. It is to tho cflect that on the 13th ult, about half past ten o'clock a. m,, he was fishing near the head of the Bay, about forty rods from the farm of George Munroc, on tbe eastern shore. The water was very still and was suddenly disturbed by an unu-ual splash ing, w hen br looked about and saw, not over thirty feet, from him an animal with a brownish body, seemingly from twelt o to fifteen feet in length and having a largo bead in shape like a bull-pout's. The ser pent, or whatever tho creature was soon disappeared under the water, bat came up shortly afterwards and made towards tho boat. Farmer then pulled away from it, and it again sank, but soon rc-appcarcd about twenty feet ahead of him, swimming towards the mouth of tho bay. Mr. F. now went ashore and called on Messrs. Munroe and Amos Page and related his adventure. All then watched two or three hour?, hoping for another visit from his serpent ?hip, but he came not. Mr. Farmer has been tho engineer at tbe marble mill in thiscity, and is also a member of tbe Queen City Band. He is a nephew of Lawrence Barnes, lias an cxcollent re putation for honesty, intelligence and so briety, and is willing to make oath to bis statement. We are informed that Mr. Monroe .ibout eighteen months ago drovo an animal similar to tliat described by Mr. Farmer, o at of his cow pasture, where ho wasundoubtcdlyljing in wait for a "veal" dinner. Wl 'ether this animal is the White hall mon-ter " on a pleasure trip" or one of the family, remains to be seen. HiXESBi Rcn. Lewis Creek cheese factory, so-called, is located in tho south part of Hint-burgh on the bank of a stream known by the name of Lewis Creek. This factory has been operation only three years, yet it has gained considerable notoriety as being one of the best of its kind in the State. Tlie managers of this factory have secured the services of Mrs. C. L. Beers, assi-ted by her husband, a son of the renowned dairyman John A. Beers of Monkton, and O. Me Shano. Tho head manager, Mrs. C. L. Beers, has bad much experience in cheese making, having had the charge of a factory some nine years. The factory contains two vats, holding six hundred gallons each, and II. Fatrhk & Son's Press. The heating process is dono by Skinner & Walworth's three horse power s-toam engine. This factory is making into idicc-c at the pre-ent timo 05,000 lbs. of milk per day. making 11 cheese each, weighing at 30 days old 50 lbs. Tho cheese is hoisted up into the second story by an elevator, where may be seen fromfivo to six hundred handsome cheese, and or the very best flavor. Tho directors aro Mcssis. G. I. Boyington, II.

Ludlow, Esq., of Troy, made a raid on tho finny tribo of Alburgh Bay, on Monday. Tho result was over a bushel offish, including 45 pickerel, 7 bass, 1 pike, more than 100 pounds weight by the scale. Their oarsman was that veteran boatman, long drawn out, Mr. 0. D. Nilcs, who-e length Is reported to bo anywhere from six to ci" ht feet. WoulJ you U "kind enou;li to Inform mo throng tlie Christian Wt cMy, how many conetituta a pair or twin-", whethar It Is two or four I A subscriber. Ans. A pair of twins is two. In a room there may oe four twins and yet no pair of twins, for no two may belong to the same family. A tuin is defined by Webster "one r two produced at a birth." Two person- therefore, each or whom is a twin, would be two twins but they would not bo a "pair of twins " unless thoy were each the twin or the other. The above ig copied from tho New York Christian, Weekly, and in my opinion it is an entirely erroneous answer to tho ques tion ashed. Undoubtedly by AVebstcr's definition tirin mean two, for twin is " ono ol two, ic." Now supposing wo take Cic terms twos and twins to be synony mous, as they may very well be taken in this cs sc. Any school boy will tell us how many a pair of twos arc and necessarily a pair of twins will be the same (I.e. 4). A pair means two and twins mean two, and in conn ecting them as in tho expression a pair of twins we have two twos. EJitcr Krt e Press and Times: ily inserting the above with any com ments or remarks you may feel inclined to make, yort will much oblige. Yours truly, AV". C. The on!ly remark we have to make is that tho Christian lrffitjrisright.and "AV'.C." wrong. There is no reaon why a pair of twins slu raid be taken to mean four persons, any more than a pair of shoes should be taken to mean four shoes. The pi oprictors of the New York Graphic invited Gen. Butler to form one of Prof. AY'ise's p irty in the projected balloon voy age acrut is tlie Atlantic, but the would-be Governor declined tho honor, preferring to stay in Massachusetts and take his chances of " go-ing up," in another way.

Salsbury's battalion of this county mado a fino appearance, in large numbers, on dress parade at seven o'clock. It is a social reunion, cm- pbatically. The camp-fires '-avc burned brightly throughout the camp this evening, and the imitation of soldiery has been com plete. Tho timo has been fully improved with songs and story-telling, and mu-ic by the great number of bands present. Tho headquarters of tho first brigade, Gen. Henry's camp, havo been tho scene of the greatest merriment. The best ot oruer is observed. The Governor's reception at the residence or Charles Clement, this evening, has been largely attended. A large number or men aro in town, and the occasion is the most interesting or tho kind ever witnessed in this State. w. c. i"i:no vai.. Gen.

Charles II- Heath of Montpelicr, is the latest nained aspirant for the Republican nomination for Governor. John G. Saxo in a Saratoga letter to the Albany Evening Journal, says : I may note that among the recent arrivals at Congress Hall are no less than ihree Governors, namely. Gov. Dix, of New York, Gov. Hartranft, of Pennsylvania, and Gov. Stewart, of A'ermont. Ihe la-t, the youngest and perhaps the mo-t accom-pli-hcd man or the trio, is none the less ad mired because his term of office expired nearly a year ago. So much the better for " John" since, with tho honor of the gubernatorial office, he is exempt from its cares, and can listen to the delicious music or Bernstein's orchestra, pleasantly attentive to the lady at his side, with never a thought of State affairs to worry his Ex cellency in his summer recreation. We are glad to learn that Rev. L. 0. Brastow, pastor orthe South Congregational Church orSt. Johnsbury, has withdrawn bis declination of tbe call from the White pStrcet Congregational Church, of this city, and accepted it. Mr. Brastow commences his labors hereon the second Sabbath in September, and is to have an annual salary of 3,000, and 500 fur the expenses or re moval to this city. The Caledonian says his church were a good deal surprised at the announcement or his resignation last Sab bath and says : "Mr. Brastow has been set tied over this church twelve years or more, and pastor and people are warmly attached. The dissolution or such near and pleasant relations will be hard for all concerned." Rev. AV. II. II.

Most of the young men have mounted new neck ties in her honor, and have become be itched by her peerless charms. Senator Sumner is at Barton looking very well, and says that he has not been in so good health as he is now for three or Tour years. Tho late Hiram Powers, in commenting on the proceedings of Co: gress in relation to A'innic Ream's Lincoln, said that Con gress would do well to put a Cupid on tho dome or the Capitol, instead of the Goddess of Liberty. We are informed by ono or tlu attorneys employed in the pro-ccution or tho suits against the Trustees and Managers or the A'ermont Central, that there are but three attorneys so engaged at present: that of these one has never met Mr. Sanborn, of the Springfield Rrpubhean, another was at tbe AVe-t when Mr. Sanborn was in St. Albans, and the third, who writes to u, "communi cated no falsehoods to Mr. Sanborn ; said nothing derogatory to tho good name of Judgo Royce, in whose integrity the coun sel for the A'ermont and Canada have confi dence ;" and " said nothing but what the mo-t violent partisan oT Gov.
