MARVELLOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.—It is be-
lieved by many simple people in Wales that there is
secreted in one of the highest mountains in the princi-
pality a silver chest, filled with silver and gold. This
chest, as the story goes, is constantly watched by a crow,
who hovers over it, and the said chest can never be dis-
covered till a clergyman preaches a sermon so long en.
the mountain that the crow becomes exhausted, and
then fall on the precise spot where the chest is hid. It
so happened that a reverend gentleman, with strong and
sound lungs, preached on the top of the mountain one
summer's day, so long that the crow descended gradually
but just as the bird was within a few inches of the
hearth
the parson was seized with a fit of sneezing, which
the thread of his discourse, and the crow ...Istantly as-
cended, and the treasure has never since been discovered.
INCENDIARISM.—We are sorry to have occa-
sion to advert to a diabolical act of this description,
which took place in the parish of Winscombe, last
roke
Monday evening. A wheat rick, the property of Far-
mer Young, who also keeps Woodburrow Inn, in the
above parish, standing in an open field some distance
from the house, was discovered to be on fire about seven
..
o'clock, and soon afterwards the whole was destroyed.
There is great reason to hope wi
the incendiary '1

discovered ; a man was seen to leave the field nd
the rick stood whilst the flames were bursting en ;
the
every inquiry is now on foot to endeavour to
t'lleb our-
villainy to a well-known bad character in the nel.
