their way- to a largo stone building I
joined the crowd. As. I npproacliod ihd

forward by the throng, forced up two flight
of atairs into a -forge hall, without civine
the door-keeper an opportunity to put any
questions about tickets. After a while tho
people became comparatively quiet, and a
man camo, forward leading a miserable
looking, half ftMiiished pig, and announced
to the spectators that he (the pig) could
spell, cypher,, or play curds as well as any
man ia Brattlcboro'. I watched the per
fbrmanoes attentively, and soon beep ma
convinced that his Pigship could do all this
