LOCAL AND GENERAL.

INcEHDIARISM IN OwEGo.--Almost every
week since last January have citizens been aroused
from their sleep by the cry of FIRE! The old red
building on Main street. H. N. HUBBARD's was first
burned the old Hudson House has been several times
set on fire the barns in the rear of Burtons Ithaca
street. and Hiersteiners Market Main street, have
been burned up Storrs' the South side of the
river with its contents of horses hay grain carriages
&c. was also burned and, finally the Empire Block on
Front street. with large stocks Of goods belonging to
Stone Co., and Eldridge & Smith, shared the same
fate. ttt
The hand of the incendiay clearly visible in these
successive fires, but who the guilty parties were was
mystery which the majority of citizens seemed in
cned to regard too cunningy covered up TO admit OF
solution. Coroner CHURCHILL. however thought other
wise and upon the adavits Of several of citizens.
summoned investigating jury to inquire into the
circumstances Of said fires The investigation was con-
Quoted with closed DOORS and resulted in such develop
ments to induce unanimous verdict that the old
building near Mr.. HuIbard's, the barn in the of
Burtons Mr. Storrs barn and the Hudson House, were
all set fire by VIM. Hollenback and Alvin Let's, who
accordingly arrested and committed to Jail by the
Coroner subsequently John Mlslin was also arrested
and committed by Justice Munger. Let's and Maslin
have made full confessions to Coroner Churchill since
their arrest but it is not deemed proper to publish their
statements detail for the present They both agree
to young Hollenback being equally guilty with them
selves and to the intention of the party to pursue
their vocation of ncendarism in the future, having al
ready agreed to the particular buildings which should
be burned next.
Great credit is due to Coroner Churchill, Col Davis,
and the jury before whom the inquiry was had for in
stutng this investigation and tracing these ncendiay
fires to their and sincerely hope, for the fu
ture safety of the property and lives of citizens that
the guilty parties will be made to feel that the way of
the transgressors is hard.-Gazete.
