Y liquor seller, and suspected of incendia'
d ries, horse poisoning, &C., has at last
It been arrested in his vilainous career
u and stands fair chance to spend few
years at Windsor. More than year
# since the barn of John Ellison, a neigh
: Dor of "Old Glynn," was burned, and as
there was a misunderstanding between
q them, Glynn was suspected of having
n set fire to it, or caused it to be DONE
o But he had managed matters so that
5 nothing could be proved against him
!, indeed he was able to prove an ali6i.-
A while after the fire lad named Ben
= Lock wood, of Springfield, grandson OF
Glynn, was taken sick and thought he was
going to die, and one day called his faith
er to the bedside and made full confess
, sion of burning EIlison's barn, having
' been induced to do so by his grandfather.
, Mr.. Ellison was subsequently, informed
] of the confession, and few days since
caused the arrest Of Glynn and the sum
naming Of youug Lockwood, who testi>
! fled in court that Glynn agreed to give
him five dollars if he would burn the
barn, and that he set fire TO it, and then
the old villain failed to pay him what he
agreed to, but bad given him at one time
dollar, at another forty cents, &c. On
the day of the court Glynn was permitted
to go to see his son, who resided short
distance from him, not far from a saw
mill that was owned by his own daughter,
Mrs. Moore, whose husband had died
in the army. This mill was TO be sold
at auction on the next day, but strange
to relate, it was burned to the ground
that very day about noon. Glynn has
had some hard words with the admin
istrator Of his son in laws estate, and not
upon good terms with his own daughter
Mrs. Moore, and hence is suspected of
having been the cause of this last fire.
Later.-Since we received the above
we learn that Glynn was at first put un-
der bonds of $1,000 for his appearance at
court which he obtained, and was again
at large but has been re-arrested, and
made full confession of burning the
barn, and says that be got his daughter,
Mrs. Stewart, to burn the saw-mill of
her sister, Mrs. Moore, on the day of
his trial at Gassets Station. Glynn has
now been sent to Jail at Woodstock,
where he spent some time few years
ince for having tried to hire a man to
axe false oath for him, and where he ,
will dnnhtless have ample time o :
'uminate over the numerous villanies lie
las committed. BeUo,os FaHs T,soo.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENTAL little boy G
If about four years of age met with ter.
'ible accident in this village on Wedues-
lay forenoon last. He with another lit {
lie boy of abou, the same age, son of
S. w. Colburn, had strayed into the
lower part Of Edmund Blake's saw mill,
where his clothes caught upon screw of
an iron shaft which was revolving with
great velocity. Mr. Colburn who was
overhead, hearing an unusal noise, im.
mediately stopped the machinery and ran
down stairs where he found the boy I'M
der the shaft, his clothes entirely stripped
from his body and wound on the shaft.
One leg was broken twice, one arm twice,
the collar bone was droken, and many
severe bruises on other parts Of the bo3y.
The head, though badly injured seems
to have escaped the terrible blows to the
limbs and be mGy recover. Drs. Nichols
and Sim1ns were called to him and all
mat can is being done for the little suf-
ferer. Thursday morning he was quite
as comfortable as could be expected
His mother, Mrs. Hill, belongs at Mt.
Holly, and was on a visit to Mr.. Col
burns, whose wife is her sister, and had
only been here few days when the
dreadful accident happened The boys
father, Mr., Isaac L. Hill, is serving his
second and veteran enlistment in the
seventh regiment, and we sincerely trust
his little boy will be spared to meet its
father, now soon to return from the hard
ships of war.-BellotoS Fails Times.
KEEPING SToCK WELL.-Many of
our readers will doubtless remember the
statement made in one of our reports of
the Westminster Farmers Club, last
winter, made by Mr. r. L. Crowell, of
Westminster West, of pair of two years
old steers, three years old this spring, as
to the gain of them by actual weight
We learn that Mr.. Crowell again weigh
ed them on the Sd of April last, when
they weighed 3l10 lbs, giviog him
gain of LILO 10 eleven months. Where
