GREAT FIRE IN PEPpERELL.-The Hospital
for the Insane, owned by Drs Cutter and Howe,
of Pepperel, consisting of two large three story
houses, was entirely consumed Sunday afternoon
about four o'clock The fire was first discovered
on the roof of one of the buildings, which COM
municated to the other building, and both were
soon destroyed The wind was blowing a gale at
the time, causing the flames to spread with great
rapidity. There were about thirty insane persons
living at the establishment, all of whom were
saved. The dwelling house of Rev. Mr. Perry.
occupied as boarding school for boys, was also
consumed, together with the school house in the
immediote vicinity.
All Of the barns, sheds, &c, connected with the
above houses, were burnt to the ground. The hous.

plan from any thing else Of the kind we have seen,
and accomplishes its work in manner that very
justly exciteS the admira ion and surprise of all who
witness its operations. The moment it is put in
moton,severai jets of are thrown into the cream
at The bottom aud, it is agi,aed, they pass rap
IDLY through the whole mass, so that a fresh supply
OF ar is constantly coming in contact with every
particle OF it. The effect is, that it requires but
from one TO two minutes bring The butter, accord
ing TO the quality Of the creamhe pruprietors guar
aatyng, that. in case, will require more than
from one tenth to eighth Of The time that is nee.
essary by the ordinary modes Of churning. We saw
butter produced in fraction ever minute, and, il
less than two minutes, by the operation Of the ma
chine alone, the butter was gathered together, anc
compactly rolled up IN round smooth ball The
apparatus is very simple, easily constructed, and,
course, can be made at low price

NEW VERSION, BY HOOD
"Come, gentle Spring. ethereal miIdness come!'
Oh, Thomson, void ofrhyme as well as reason,
How coud'st thou thus poor human nature hum!
THERE no such season.
The Spring! | shrink and shudder at her name!
For why, fluid her breath bitter Brighter!
And suffer from her hlows as if the, came
From Spring the fighter.
Her praises then, let hardy poets sing,
And be her tuneul laureates and upholders,
Who do not feel as il they had Spring
Poured down their shoulders.
Let others eulogize her floral showers;
From me they cannot win single sanza;
know her blooms are in full bow-and SOS
The influenza.
Her cowslips stocks, and lilies Of the vale,
Her honey blossoms that you hear The bees at,
HeraIansies, dafodiIs, and primrose pale,
Are things sneeze at.
Fair as the vernal quarter Of the year,
Aud fair its early buildings and its bluwings--~
But jus; suppose Consumption seeds appear
With other sowings
For me, find, when eastern winds are high,
lrigid, not gentle inspiration;
Nor can, like iron-chested Chubb defy
An inflammation.
Smitlen by oreezes from The land of plague,
10 me all vernal luXurles are tables;
o, where's the Spring in a rheumatic leg,
Stiff as tables!
l limp in agony wheeze and cough,
And quake with Ague the great Agilator;
Nor dream before July, Of leaving of
My Respiration.
What wonder, if in May itself lack
A peg ior lauddtory to hang on?
Spring, mild and genrlel-yes, spring haeIed Jack
TO those be sprang on.
In short, what ever panegyrics lie
In fusome odes, too many he cited,
The tenderness OF Spring is all my eye,
And that is blighled!
