 --lt is with most sincere and sorrowful regret that we chronicle to-day the decease of Fred D. Beeman, Esq, lawyer of this town and late Clerk of the Courts of this County. He died on Saturday morning last at about III # o'clock. For the past six months he has been gradually wasting away with consumption, and his final end, though not unlocked for, still must shock severely the large circle of friends and &C., quaintance by whom he was known and beloved. Of o warm genial nature, frank and hearty temperament, he created strong feeling of warm personal regard wherever he was known. In the prime of life, and manhood, and promise, he is circle of his many friends which will long be noted and never oblitereted.
 His funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon at St. Michael's EpiscoraD Church in this vil- laye and his remains were followed to the grave by large concourse of citizens, and by the Ma sonic Fraternity in large numbers, of which he was in life an active and distinguished member, and by whom he was buried according to his own with Masonic Honors.

 ----Hot ?-Slightually! The past few days of this week have beon decidedly the most dog gedly hot days of the present season, the ther- mometer ranging all around among the nineties Lemonade has been up frequently-but as often put doun. It's a good time for cob6lers, they ere employed wholly with heel-taps, and many are the stra,cs elevated, to show which way the wind blows. It's warm time generally; in our sanctum particularly; and only just now our imp whose presence, bawling for moro copy" is the 'last of all" grievancies, comes to tempt us for this last paragraph. Wilt thou ? he asks and we ,ON. Exit Satan to his frying pan. Goshen.
 There is a mysterious "animile' seen now onights in " Dog-pond" sheet of water south of Goshen village, which is considered by some to be the veritable |" sea sarpint." We have recev- ed long communication on the subject, but be- yond "quiet party" who were "riding along the lake at night-fall" being "much terrified by the omnous aspect" which met their vew-and the swooning of one of the party-and as no afida- wit accompanies the document, we must consider the whole a "gentle hoax"--or one of those e:ecitements for which the good Goshen people arc famous.
 Harwinton.
