against the enemy. On Saturday night the barn Of
Mr.. Mcfarland, a farmer living at Butt End, place
near Roxbury, was burnt to the ground, IN pursu-
ance Of a sentence passed by this secret tribunal.
Mcfarland was peaceable citizen, but was the only
one in the place who had refused to join in the anti
rent movement, and, after the death of Steele, took
part in meeting to denounce that act. On Sunday
morning, when the information of the burning
reached this place, detachment was forwarded to
the place in pursuit Of the incendares 1t has not
yet returned. Lieut.. Steele, half.brother of the
murdered sheriff, starts'again on Tuesday for Dry
Brook. In general, the operations of the posse are
secret as II has been found that information is
ried by express, in advance of the posse, from
those IN correspondence with the anti-renters here.
The returning posses describe the country almost
desolate by the anarchy that prevails. The crops
are uncut and rottng in the fields, the men proving
in disguise in the woods, the work Of the farms
abandoned; and the country, like its inhabitants,
has put on the garb of uncivilization. Adjutant
General Harrington is here, active in the discharge
of his duties.

TWO LIVES PRESERVED BY A CHILD
TWELVE YEARS OLD.

On Monday afternoon, September 1, party Of
ladies-conssting of Mrs James Oakes of this city,
her two sisters, Mrs Knapp, of Newburyport, and
Mrs. Mosely, of Boston, and Mrs. O.'s daughter,
Miss Garafea Oakes who will be twelve years old
in December--went from Newburyport to Plumb Is
land, to battle. They all came out of the water ex-
cept Mrs. Mosely and went a short distance upon
the beach to dress. While they were dressing, Mrs
r. Berry, Of this city, who was also upon the
beach, heard Mrs.Mosely scream Save me! save
me' Mrs. Berry called to Mrs. Knapp, and told
her that her sister was drowning. Mrs. Knapp,
with natural impulse, rushed into the water to
save her sister, but Immediately found herself be-
yond her depth, and called upon Mrs Berry to save
her. Mrs. b. was in full dress, not having been in
to bathe but she waded in up her neck and reach
ing out seized part of Mrs Knapp's clothing, and
drew her on shore.
BY this time Mrs. Cakes heard the screaming
and seeing her sister, Mrs. Mosely, foundering in
the water, pushed out to attempt her rescue; but
she, too, soon found herself sinking, and in he,
turn cried out to her daughter, "Garafelia, save
both ladies' must inevitably drown without prompt
succor, and, with great presence of mind, she ad.
vised Garafelia to put on her life preserver and
save her mother. Quicker than lightning, (tc
use Mrs. Berry's words) the heroic girl had on hel
preserver, plunged in, swan to the spot where hei
mother was sinking, seized her by the hair of hei
head, which was all that was above water, and
dragged her to Mrs. Berry, WHO had waded in 10
receive her; and, together they laid her upon the
beach, perfectly insensible, and with every appear
ance Of a drowned person. But Mrs, Berry's self
possession had not deserted her; and she implored
Garafelia now to leave her mother, and rescue her
aunt, Mrs. Mosely, who had already sunk. As
she rose, Garafclia swan towards her, calling out
"Keep up, aunty! keep up! I'm coming; Tve saved
mother, and will save you" and, with these words
she reached the drowning woman, and drew her
also on shore, unconscious of all.
DR.. Atkinson, Of Newburyport, who happened to
be upon the island, soon at hand, and assisted
in restoring animation to the two ladies', who had
been in such imminent danger. He said that neither
of them could have lived two minutes longer in the
water Mrs. Atkinson, Mr.. Thompson, the hotel
keeper, and his family, and Mr.. and Mrs J. M
Titcomb, were also extremely kind to the distressed
party.
II appears that Mrs. Mosely was seized 10y cramp
lost her elfcon:rol and was drawn by the current
into water Ten or fifteen feet in depth. The cool.
ness of Mrs. Berry, and the admirable courage
and quickness of Miss Oakes prevented catas
ito he that would have been affective beyond de.
strpdon.

STATE TRIALS.

HUDSON, coP'. ~, 1870
The court adjourned last evening to % o'clock
this morning The examination OF Jurors was re-
sumed on the opening Of the court. An unpleasant
scene soon occurred TO interrupt the proceedings.
When the hour of meeting arrived, Mr.. storms re-
ones,ed the court TO delay ill the arrival Of the lead
inc counsel, Mr. Jordan. Judge Edmonds remark
ed that il was five minutes beyond the time and
Thought the court could not wait any longer. The
trial then proceeded, and Mr., Storms was engaged
IN the examination Of a Juror, (Mr Sedgwick cha-
lenged for favor by the prisoner, when Mr. Jordan
arrived. The latter interrupted the examination Oh
his associate, by propounding nterrogatory; when
the attorney general quietly remarked, zone at
time if your please, gentlemen" Mr. jordan, VINO
appeared ritated by the refusal OF the court TO wait
for MIN, replied t is one at tlme;'' ana when MI
Van Buren, reioned 'that is not trae, sir" retorled
in coarse and violent tone, 'fou are liar, SIR"
The attorney general, who was seated IN front of
Mr. Jordan turned round suddenly, apparently TO
resent the insult with blow, and with his elbow
struck Mr. j. in the breast. The latter attempted to
strike back and, both rising, Jordan received blow
in the face The officers Of the court nterfered and
on the restoration of order, Mr.. Van Buren, apollo
gized for the indecorum in which he had taken part
and Mr. Jordan attempted an explanation. The
court committed both the counsel to the custody Of
the sheriff for twenty-four hours.
The refusal of the court to delay the commence
men of business for the arrival of Mr. Jordan, fur
nished justification for the irritation which that
gentleman manifested. His associate counsel was
present, and was competent to the duty Of examn-
ing the jurors; but his manner of resenng this was
but the continuation of demeanor towards the
court, the witnesses, and COUNSEL which had more
than once before called forth rebuke from the pre-
siding judge. OF course, the affair is regretted on all
sides; and the attorney general is blamed chiefly for
till now borne the batting of his adversary with the
mO6t exem parv cOolness.
