This composition is not like others, dangerous
when applied. There is no arsenic or any other
poison about It, that coHld by any accident endan-
ger tie lie OF men Even for your favOrte Bofog-
nese or kitten, you need not be afraid for it would
not hurt them if they should eat of it; but it will
1ii eveTv rascay that only little of it,
ana they cannot help doing So the favor of that
leicacy seems TO be the me plus ultra in their
gasronomy. 1t has to be applied to piece OF bread
ot about square inch and about quarter of an
nch thick, and late in the evening-it wants to be
put 10 suitable place. rat-hoe, or wherever they
are used to hold their nocturnal meetings. But to
get them away entirely from our premises, we have

BISGnAMroS, May 10, 1850.
The Sedson-7he Crops-!Sifuafion Of the Village
The Residences Of Disinguished Dfem-Inwore-
ments, 5-c.
arrived here from the East yesterday morning,
and found vegetation in very backward condition.
The weather yesterday was cold, with high winds,
and very disagreeable all day; in the evening the
wind went down and the clouds disappeared; this
morning the ground was covered with white frost.
Having few unappropnsted moments, I shall
send you a few notes, in regard to this beautifu
town, which may not be altogether uninteresting TO
your readers.
The village was not settled to any extent, until
about the beginning Of the present century, and for
many years after was called Chenango Point, or,
many OF the older farmers and lumbermen still
have 1t. "Chenang Pint" IL was, after many
years, named Binghamfon, in honor Of Mr.. Bing-
ham, who owned large tract Of land in this vi
ciniiy.
This is the junction Of the Susquehan and
Chenango rivers, and the southern termination OF
the Chenango canal. The location presents many
natural advantages for pleasant village, and they
have been improved TO great advantage. Many Of
the private residences are large and well built and
the grounds laid out with great taste. Those de-
serving particular notice are:-"lngleside," the
residence Of the Hon. John A. Collier, who has
recently taken possession OF IT, after an absence on
public duties Of some six years. "Riverside" is
one Of the most beautiful private residences in
the interior Of the State. IL is the residence
Of Mr. Lewis. The residences of Dr. Eldridge
and General Whitney were pointed out 10 me.
and are in very fine taste. That Of DR. T.. is sur
rounded by Of the most beautiful groves Of Sc
cond growth oak that ever saw
The oldest dwelling now standing in this vcini-
ty. is that built by Capt, Leonard, in I7@. It is
occupied by Amacy Leonard, and considered
rare specimen OF antiquity.
The building Of the railroad has given quite an
impetus TO the growth Of the village. There are
now in progress of erection over fifty buildings.
The most conspicuous is that for large hotel IN
The vicinity OF the depot; it Is TO be called the Lewis
House.
special express has just arrived from Corning,
saying, that large portion Of the town Is in flames.
There is so much confusion, that am unable TO
get the particulars. The fire companies from here
are now getting ready TO start TO their rescue
