 The question with regard to the right of the Borough to control the village Parks came up before the meeting. and after much discussion it was sfinally de> teImined that the Borough had no rights of property in the Parks. and that the adjoining proprietors own the fee of the same. as in all cases of highways, and it was therefore voted to instruct the Bailiff not to draw any orders on the the Treasurer on account of either of the Pa,ks--after which the meeting adjourned without date. ears.

ELECTIONS.

VERMONT held her election on the 5th. Returns from lo7 towns give Royce, the whig and republican candidate SIS maj which will be increased by the towns to come in.

 MX1NE on the l1th declared for Free dom. The Tribune says the returns ren. der it almost certain that Anson P.

More Maine Law.

Two men, named Hiram Mead and Peter Mcfarland. were brought from New Milford by Sheriff Knapp on Sat- urday, andlodged in the county jail.
 Mead, it appears, in company with colored man, had procured liquor from across'th New York line, and worked so vigorously to place the article beyond seizure, that he was overcome by his efforts and became intoxicated, in which state he was arrested. He 'WRs taken before Justice Hine, and fined $20 and costs. .amodnting to some $7 more.
 Mcfarland als, made journey across the line, and returned safely home with his precious load, which he made all haste to deposit in 8 place of security. The liquor was contained in two jugs, and in getting these up stai s the one holding the largest part was dropped and its contents lost. Here was trouble. but poor Peter was soon to experience deeper affliction he had partner in buying the liquor-who. on learning of Pcter's misfortune, and finding his treasure gone. complained of him for being found drunk and testified to thai effect at the exam ina;iOn.

The Weather.

During thesgreater part of last week the weather conlirsea exceedingly warm and dry-until Wednesday,, when the thermometer stood at 95 in the shade. A refreshing rain, however, cooled the atmosphere at night. and d i'd much 10 wards relieving the parched and whitening vegetation. We were sgnin.favorea with showers Saturday afternoon, and througl' the night and Sunday r.in fell in tor rents for time the wind blew violently, but doing little damage in this section beyo demolishing chimney or two.
 The Springfield Republican of Monday thus comments on The rain:
 A UNIVERSAL SERMON But few peo, pie went to church yesterday. Some could not. others would not. But none escaped sermon. God himself preach ed in bountiful, drenching rain. It was eloquent with love and goodnes to man. It taught him confidence in Providence. lt'rebuked his selfish mur~ murings at temporary misfortune and passing evils. It inspi,ed hope. It wiped away the tears of despailing pow erly. It swept off the foundation of ,tw selfish speculator's plans for the winter. Ah! it was great sermon. Hour by hour through the live-long Sabbath it's pattering sounds fell like music upon every thoughtful soul Eo' ery aadea hour knocked cT Q penns from the price cf potatoes. and C sixpenc from eocL barreL Of Hour.

The public were surprised last week to hear of the failure of this company, which has always been considered one of the safest in the country. The a. mount for which the company has fail ed is not stated. but it must be very large, as its capital was three Hundred Mousaad dollars. The Courant says the late numerous and devastating fires and the great losses which they have sustained. compelled them to make an assignment. Tire Directors employed all the means that lay in their power to avert the calami:y. but their efforts were uuavailing.
