An INCIDENT AND ITS CONSEQUENCES Ono
day of last week, a gentlemen connected with
one of the first produce and commission hou-
ses in Montreal, left the ST. Lawrence Hotol
in the O'Clock morning stage for Watortown,
on his wnv to the west for the purchase of pro-
ducc. His trunk was strapped on to tho rack
of tho sleigh behind AT a watering place,
about six miles on tho way, il was discovered
that the trunk had got loose from tho strapng
and was only hold by the strap passing through
ono Of tho handles, and had been dragging in
that manner until it was knocked opon, and its
contents principally gone. TWAS made known
thatthc trunk contained twenty thousand dollars
Canada bank bills, put up III packages Of from
two to five thousand each. Upon reforming
along the road, scarcely yet daylight, tho own
or and those accompanying him, found to tho
amonnt of ten thousand dullars, and on arriv-
ing here, soon learned that Mr.. Southwarth(a
colporteur,) had found package Of two thou.
sand dollars, which was returned. Again re.
torning upon the road, laborcr on the rail-
road was fallen in with, on his way to tho viii
lage, with tho balance Of tho loss, ten thousand
dollars, having found il on bis way to his daily
toll. Tho gentleman. with commcndable libc-
rality, having regard to the honesty OF the fn l.
crs. presented 10 the honest laborer fifty dol
lars, and to Mr.. Southwark thirty. How
much happier was that poor laborer with his
fifty dollars fairly acquired as the reward Of
his honesty, than no would have been with
the whole package fcloniously ncqured:-
Surely "honesty is the best policy" as'i i4

THE WOMEN IN THE FIELD.

5s The Kalamazoo Telegraph furnishes the par
ticulars CT a descent modo on tho groggcries
of Otsego. Allegan Co., by the women of that
place. II appears that some time sinco n
lady residing in that town who has husband
addicted to the habits of frequent intoxicatiou,
called upon several of the rumsellers Ia qthc
village and be ought them not TO sell him any
more liquor, and il is related that while on her
knees imploring one of those persons 10 spare
her and hor family from this misery, so far at
least as her husband was concerned, he brutality
told her to ego to h-ll! ho should sell his liquor
10 any man that would pay him." and thus
drove her in tears from his shop. Her entroa-
ties had no effect, as also those of several ladies
who had made similar requests. On Thursday
afternoon of last week tho ladies Of the village
to the number of thirty EIGHT, armed with axes
and hatche,s, formed procession and march
cd upon the destroyers oftheir domestic peace.
Proceeding to tho hotel thoy commenced
general demolition Of dccanters. jugs tnmblers
and barrels. when the proprietor bosceching
them to desist, camo to terms, and gave bonds
not to sell any moro liqnor for six months after
which they quietly withdrew. They tbon scar
ched grocery thoroughly but findingno enemy.
proceeded to another grocery which was noto-
rious as tho worst rum hole in the place.
Hero they commenced active operations, upon
the refusal OF the proprietor to give the required
bonds, and persisted in tho work of destruction
till the fellow came to terms. They then pro-
cecded to another liquor dealing concern, anil
the proprietor refusing to sign the bonds offer
ed, as in the instance Of the andlord, they pour
ed out his entire stock of liquors. amidst tho
greatest excitement. During the operation.
the proprietor rudcly graspcd ono Of tho ladies
and hurled her back. whereupon he was seized
and most thoroughly drencbcd in his own
liqnor. He received several very severe injur-
les in tho melee which no ono regrets we arc
sure. After having accomplished this tho wo-
men quietly dispersed. This action meets tho
approval ofa largo part of the community there.
Report says that tho same party had organized
for second campaign against tho liquor traffic,
and vero to proceed to hotel at Pine Creek,
about two miles from Otscgo, with the design
TO act as they had in the former instances, il
the landlord refused to comply with their 70.

l SINGULAR EXPLOSION OF GAs.-Snco the

thero has been constant leakage Of gas from
the broken pipes among the ruins, and :he
