almost wholly neglected
While our fathers planted seed as soon as thew could
clear spot OF ground, and set apart n field for
an orchard among their first acts we have suffered
and are still suffering them to decay and finally use
them Tor wood when with proper cultivation our
great grand children might have abundance of fruit
from them. Your committee full believe that with
six yenrs proper cultivation the value of our old or
chards alonen this county u1 be ten times what il
now Is. Your committee beg not 10 be understood

there are many exceptions to il, and that place

Terrific HailstOrm.

A most frightful storm of hail and rain, &C.
companied by thunder and lightning, passed
over this village on Thursday of last week, do
ing immense damage TO the crops, fruit, &c.
Ii is estimated that in this village and vicinity,
upwards Of 10000 panes of glass were broken
by the hail. One of Judge Whi,ney's barns
were unroofed; fowls and birds were pelled 10
death by the hail carriages upset by The wind
horses broke their fastenngs and ran furiously
through The streets corn was greatly damaged,
fields of buckwheat wholly destroyed; and
miles and miles of fences prostra,ed In one
field of beans, belonging TO Capl. Thorp, 200
bushels it is supposed were sheIted by the hail.
Altogether, i, was frighlful scene, and our on
ly wonder is that our citizens escaped without
personal injury. One instance of heroism on
the part Of little deaf and dumb boy. some six
or seven years old, son of Mr. Gabriel Arm
strong, is worthy of notice. He in company
with lille girl were absent on an errand,
some distance from any house when the storm
came on. The girl tainted, from fright, and
fell TO the ground. The little fellow sal down
by her side and with his bare neck and .binly
clad body, endeavored to screen his charge
from the effects of the storm. In this situation
he eremained duringth continuance of the storm,
and until they were discovered and relieved by
the neighbor. His neck was considerably cut
by the hail stones. bu. happily he escaped Sc
rious injury.-[Broome Republican.
