and the wind blowing briskly, th. flames took a rapid course
fur about five hours, reaching the fine planting and curer
called Rather Hill, where it quickly broke in at the north-
west corner, and had it out beets from the prompt exertions of
Mr. Harvey, at the Rowling.green, with about twenty people
whom he called to his assialaisee, the entire of this beautiful
planting must also hare been consumed; but they happily
succeeded in arresting the fniiher progiess of the raging
element. Number* of party dge., particularly the young
sues, became a prey in the destructive scene. About twenty-
