steps until he found himself again at the
portals cfthe " enchanted place" What
was his astonishment, on opening and en-.
tering his own room, 10 find himseifenvel.
oped in dense mass OF smoke. There
was no time to be lost-he summoned aid,
and for ence bafled the unparalled villainy
of the unknown incendiary,by extingushing
the flames. Squire Warton was engaged
all day yesterday, in the office, in taking
depositions-and it is rumored, that if the
building had been destroyed the proceed

as they are fully developed.
