NEW YORK FIREMEN.-A correspon-
dent Of the Cleveland Herald has wit
messed the doings ut fire in New Y ork,
and gives the following description of
them. We think we have heard some
thing very like it hearabouts:
Again and again the sullen note trem-
bled on the night wind. 1t told Of fire
in the With District. From subterran-
can saloons energies excited men who
scrutinizingly scan the sky, and then hur-
ried off. a man working on his over
coat as he ran, clattered noisily by, and
cut across the Park. A great tintinnab-
ulation, up roarious whanging and crash
ing of gongs, diabolical yells, and a tren-
zied crowd of men and boys, amid the
glare of tiaring torches and the red light
of lanterns, tore down Broadway with
their machine bounding madly after
Still continue the warning urgings of
the big bell, never firing and always
crying, as it were, haste! haste! haste!
Where is the fire? In the vicinity of
Nassau st; the sky has lost its wonted
hue, and now blushingly reflects the
ruddy glow of the dawning conhagration
The streets are now alive. A hose-cart
leaps along; forth from its whizzing reel
the leathern hose is dashed-the conduit
of rescuing Croton. In the vicinity of
the fire, the corners of the streets swarm
with struggling crowds, and with coun
tenances death-hued from the reflection
of the fire, they gaze Oh the devastating
- . L. oh -,
fill the night, while through the black
and swollen tubes, forced by energetic
strokes rushes the troubled water, and
spirting high from brassy nozzles, itpen-
etrates the veil of smoke and flame to
overcome and subdue.
The engines clank and clank monoton-
ously. The Foreman, though, of No. C
stationed OH the tower of that bully tub,
is evidently fairly crazy with profession
al excitement. He stamps with rage,
and curses, vituperates and entreats in
one and the same breath. The men on
his machine become weary, relax lit
tie III their exertions; forthwith thus he
breaks out: ''Come boys do put little
more beef on, don't go to sleep on them
brakes, wrack her down lively nowr'-|
pause-'O fels! do jump, there's the
Thirty Skies a washing YOU clean away
and I'm getting drownded, Wake up
blast you!' and the y boys waking up ac-
cordingly, batter and whack away with
redoubled energy to the infinite content
of the Foreman, who views their violent
exertions with much placidity, except
when aroused to fresh ebullition by a
deficiency of muscular application, upon
which he wakes once more hortatory,
mandatory and impreeatory.

PIEpMnNr.-Our town has increased
nearly one.halt in the last two years. IL
is now incorporated with efficient coIpo-
rate authorities, and begins TO exhibit
signs Of commanding importance. Since
our commencement many improvements
have been made in The Development oil
our mineral resources. Various collier
les have been opened and many more are
on the eve of opening. The Railroad
Company have addedlo their improve
ments in this place and will still continue
to do so. Many fine and substantial
buildings have been erected the past sea-
son, and we understand 4 goodly number
will be erected the ensuing season. Late
discoveries have shown that valuable de-
posts of iron ore are in this immediate
region. These beds are principally on
lands owned by the New Creek ComPa-
ny. If the Company manifest any llber-
ality (which we are pretty sure they Will
company will soon be formed to erect
furnaces and rolling mills in this vicinity.
These immense Deposits Of iron ore in
connection with the well-known deposits
of coal will render almost certain the
speedy completion of the Alexandra, Lou
doun and Hampshire Railroad. This i'm
por,ant enterprise becomes almost sane
qua non TO the development of the vast
mineral resources Of this region: We
are credibly Informed from highly intelll-
gent and res pcc!able sources, that suttl-
cien deposits of iron ore are within the
limits of Hampshire county to rank II
among the richest in the Commonwealth.

The Old Year.


Time in its never ceasiug round has
brought us to The close of another year
and when we take retrospective glance
at The past, how many changes do we
see in the community aio md US? How
many homes have been made desolaie by
the absence of some dear one that was
ont to be present at the family meeting
al this festive season? But whose place
can never again be filled-lhe silver cord
has been loosened-lhe tie tina, bound the
family together has been severed by the
hand of death--Alropos has cut the
"thread" Of life and the spirit that was
the lighl of that HOME has wended It's
way to the bosom of its father, God.
As day by day is numbered with the
pas, and we hold TO the last lingering mo-
uents Of the old year so the years OF
our life are fast rolling their way into
measureless eternity and ere long our
frail barque will be stranded upon the
shores OF Time.
Spring, with It's flowers and balrny airs,
It's pleasures and lis joys, has come and
gone and is remembered only as dream.
Summer too with lis rich haryests and
golden grain has passed away in the round
Of seasons and gave place TO the oscar
and yellow leaf of Autumn and the vari-
ed hueS of Dame natures gaudy robe,
and then comes hoary winter with It's
SHOWS aud biting frosts and bleak, cold
winds, and merry Christmas too is now
at hand when SANTA CLAUS pays his an
nuaI visit and down the chimney GO
ing fills with toys, nuts and candies, the
stockings by the mantle hanging" but
now the year has closed
"Gone gone forever like rushing wave,
Another year has burst upon the shore
OF earthly being-and its last low tones,
w Wandering in broken accents on the air,
Are dying ~ an ocho."
The merry ringing Of the bells annonn-
ces the birth Of another year, the past to
oblivion has gone and is all forgot the
ne,0 is only before Us, and onward we.
must go till the sands of life shall have
run out. And it becomes us all to return
our mos, hearty thanks to that Being who
has watched over US during the past year
and bestowed so many blessings upon us,
and endeavor to follow more closely his
divine precepts-"To visit the fatherless
and the widow in their affection and live
uns pot,ed from the World SO that If
another year should not find us in the
Gland of the living" we may be prepared
for higher and more glorious state OF eX-
istence in that "house not made with
hands eternal in tue heavens.
