FROST. This section Of country
was visited with light frost ON last
Thursday night. 1t was observed on
the leaves and grass by persons who
rose early the following morning.
Fortunately it was not severe enough
TO do any material damage to the
crops not yet matured. The yield
of all kinds of small grain is larger
this season than for a number of years
back, and If the corn and other crops
escape the early fall frosts, our barns
and grainaries will be filled TO overs
flowing. and business of all kinds re

The BRONSON INSTITUTE AT Mr..
Hope DESTROYED BY FIRE.-We are
informed by Mr.. Jacob Nathan, who
returned from u visit 10 Mt. hope on
yesterday. that the Bronson Insti-
tute, located at that place was en-
tirely destroyed by fire on last Sat
urday night. The building was q
new one, of frame material. and had
been erected by the Methodist de>
nomination at an expense Of betw cen
four and five thousand dollars. -
The fire commenced its work of dc ,
struction in the topmost story, which
had just been finished that day. II
is supposed by some to have been the
work Of an incendiary, while others
arc of opinion that it was purely &C.
cidental. We understand that there
are persons who are i'll disposed to-
ward the success Of the Institution,
and should it prove to have been pur-
posely ret on fire, we hope from the
bottom of our heart, that the guilty
one may be brought to light, and be
made to spend the next ten years of
his existence in the building erected
at Waupun for the accommodation
of just such characters.
The Methodists, not discouraged
By this calamity, propose building
another in the same place. The work
is to be commenced as soon as posi-
BILE. The fall term was TO have open
ed to day. The Institute was insur-
ed in the Mutual, of Madison, for ST.,
500.
Mr. c. F. Falley, tho agent of
the Institute sends US word that
they are making efforts to rent suit
able place in which to commence the
school until they can rebuild.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES long fingered
desperate entered the harness shop
of Mr.. Collins on Saturday evening,
the oath ult between the hours of
seven and eight, and took therefrom
number of articles amounting in val.
ue to about $40 and turned things up.
side down generally. The door of
| the shop was closed and locked at the
usual time Of quitting work. The
guilty person must have procured in
some manner, false key, as there
are no marks of violence on any of
the windows or doors. 1t WAS dar-
ing act to enter building SO situated,
it being surrounded on all sides by
tenanted houses.
Crimes of this character are be.
coming altogether too frequent in our
village. We have heard q number
of complaints quito recently, of eel
lars being visited, and every thing in
the shape of eatables taken. We
would advise the guilty person to
"quit while his larder is full"
LATKR.-Since the above was put
in type, we learn that two new straps,
belonging to a bride, were found the
morning after the shop was entered,
near where Thomas Trollop, an Eng
lish farmer residing about seven
miles north Of Lancaster, had loaded
u key Of beer. Trollop came to town
yesterday, and on his team were
found two neck yoke straps, both of
which MIR. Collins identified IA part
of the stolen property; whereupon u
warrant was ISSUED and Trollop was
arrested, tried and convicted OF lars
ccny before Esq Burr, who fined
him $1,000 and costs AS it appears
to have been the first offence Of the
kind, Mr.. Collins concluded To carry
the matter no farther; although he
could be arrested and tried him for
burglary.
Trollop still protests his inno-
cence, but seemed very willing to
pay the fine and costs, which amount.
ed to about $4,000. We are of the
opinion that Thomas will inquire the
price before purchasing another har-
ness.
