TlRK. On Friday night last about the
hour Of midnight our citizcls were aroused
by the terrible cry of Fire. The eyes of
the hundreds of aroused sIumbercrs were
greeted with that peculiar glare of light
which always fills the heart with horror.
The large frame barn and stable of Mr.. NJ.
C. Sloan, situate in the heart Of the town,
was mass Of fame soon after the fire was
first discovered II was not closely connect
cd with any other buildings except on
the south side. Here was frame dwelling
within perhaps twelve feet Of the burning
barn and it is owing to cxcrtions Of more
than hcrculan character, made by our citi-
zens, that the fire was nct communicated to
this building. If this had happened the
damage might have been serious indeed.
AS it was, Mr.. Sloan lost his barn, and,
what is more distressing to think Of, and
what grieves the owner nearly as much at
the loss Of the building, is, a tauorite cou
for mhich he had paid more than one hun-
dred dollars, and also sin fine thrifty pigs
perished in the flames. We understand
the insurance is but about two hundred
dollars.
r6s" The lad who fired the pistol and
killed his comrade in Ulster twp, an ac-
count Of which we gave last week, as soon
as he saw the fatal effect of his careless act
threw down the weapon, ran away from the
scene, and was nowhere to be found. As
he did not return home during the night,
search was made for him on the next day
(Satursay,) and also on Sunday. The whole
region was thoroughly explored, and the
pond known as Hovey Pond was drawn of.
He was discovered on Monday morning, un.
dcrhis father sbarn, lying in asheep-trough,
in stiff aha apparently scnseless state. DR..
Mills Of Ulster, was at once called to see
him and, at the time of this writing, the
lad is reported to be much better, though
still greatly cast down in spirit, and strange.
~ shy and taciturn. He is the adopted
son Of Andrew Morrison, and is fourteen
years Of age. The firing of the pistol is,
we think, justly regarded as shameful acl
Of boyish rashness, rather than an act pro-
ceeding from any criminal impulse. Both
the boys had happily associated together in
their sports, previously, and this uniform
agreement with each other in their dssocia
tons, rrccludcs the idea Of. crime. But
such foolhardiness is shocking to contem
plate. 8Ynrt. ..
The funeral Of the deceased took place,
at the Moorc's Hill church, ON Sunday, June
I'd, and was attended by large and fecln.

WiIMISGToS, Feb. 18th, 1867.
The fluctuations in gold during the week have
been wider than usual Of late, having ranged
from 1868 to 1881. The closing price Inst ever-
ing was 1878.
The causes of the fluctuations were partly
owing to the action. or rather the disposition OF
Congress on the currency question, and partly TO
political causes. The latter element was more
speculation than the former. The dominant
majority of the country has ceased to apprehend
much complication from any cousre Congress may
determine upon with regard to reconstruction,
and have become settled in the conviction that
the more thoroughly the work Of reconstruction
is done the better it will be for every interest, as
of all things settled state of affairs is most to he
desired for business operations
AS 10 the currency il is believed that no action
will be taken at this late period of the session of
Congress that will materially effect il for con-
traction, and there is no present probability of
any further expansion. Under this conviction
the markets have assumed more careful tone,
and while dizziness is subject Of complaint, there
Is not that depression and iorchoding that pre-
vailed few weeks since.
The bank statements of the week have been
very favorable, and an easy money market exists
in New York.
The Wilmington & Reading Railroad have call
ed for the first insalment of ten per cent Of the
subscribed capital They elected an engineer and
propose TO commence work Immediately.
Local stocks have been moving quietly and
