GENERAL NEWS SUMMARY.


Sad Cdldmity.-The Boston Journal states
that the village of Neponset was Thursday
evening the scene of dreadful calamity,
which resulted in the destruction by fire of the
dwelling house of Mr.. John Spear, and the
lives of two interesting children of Mr. VIM.
Harris one Of the occupants Two children
were rescued in safety, but Notwithstanding
several gallant men periled their lives to save
those in bed, they were burnt to death, and
their lifeless bodies brought forth from the
building, while the fire was still raging. The
children were boy aged seven and girl aged
two years.
BERKSHIRE COUNTY.
The old Cushman house in Bernardston,
built in 1885, which has been the residence of
five generations of Cushmans, was destroyed
by fire on Tuesday-insuredf for $500.
MAINE.
Aroostook appears to be great place for
potatoes. The Pioneer tells of field at the
"Center Line, of jackson whites, that yielded
five hundred bushels to the acre, entirely free
from disease. In another lot at Hogden, two
hills were dug, one of which contained fifty
eight and the other fifty nine good sized pota-
toes.
The Kennebec Journal says that a few years
since the wife of the then American minister
to England received from friend in New
England box of autumnal leaves, selected for
their beauty and variety of tints. The lady
wore them as ornaments, and they attracted
much attention and were greatly admired by
the English people. Since then these leaves
have been in demand there, and every autumn
packages of them are sent over in the steam
ers, and flash their beauty in high circles in
London.

THE

While we try to make the
Journal interesting in almost cv-
cry respect, we know that there
is one large and favorite class of
persons who must always have
something more especially in re-
gard to their interest. We mean
the farmers, and whenever we
say anything to cheer them, we
know it cheers everybody else, at
least it ought to. From our ex-
changes we have very hattering
accounts of the crops. A very
largo yield of corn and cotton is
certain, provided no unexpected
disaster comes to blight the pros
pect. They have, very general
ly, recovered from the back-set
they received from the drought,
and now look fine indeed. But
the cotton is having a little too
much rain about now, we think,
and unless the rain suspends
awhile, the cotton will be greatly
injured.

WINCHESTER:
"A SELL,

Winchester is a great town. We
have said so often before, and we
say so again. 1t is filled with
some very bad persons too, and
some who ale not so bad, but
mischievois. 1t is a great town
for new words and means by
which to play a joke on whomso-
ever may be caught. In fact,
we are afraid to ask any one in
Winchester the why's and where
fores, lest we may be laughed at
for biting too soon. But some
times when they run out of by
words, catch-words, &C., they are
at a loss, and must invent some
thing else, or their character will
be lost. So, on last Satur-
day night some devilish fellow
whose name we do not know,
concluded to sell our good people,
and he succeeded pretty WE'LL
He went up into the cupola of our
Courthouse, tied a long string to
the clapper of the bell suspended
therein, and then getting the
other end to the ground, our hero
took it in his hand and climbed a
tree some distance off, where no
eye could see, and forthwith com
menced ringing. 1t being a late
hour Of the night, Of course the
sound attracted attention, and
created fear. But what could it
be ringing for? Nobody cried
fire, and no fire was to be seen.-
Everything still save that noisy
bell. Who could it be? Our
town Constable, in company with
several others, went up to catch
the rascal, and, fastening the
doors after them, made certain
they had their victim. But 10
and behold! when they got up
there, nobody was to be found.
Search was made but of no avail.
Down they went, but soon the
hell commenced its pcals again
With easy tread, they marched
back to meet thesame disappoint-
ment. Whether or not they now
believe in spiritual-rappings we
don't know, but one thing we are
sure of-that they were sold. 1t
was a naughty trick, and the fell
low ought to be treated.
