A correspondent Of. the Parkersburg

NJ. Chalfant, Esq, or$2,5O0.

Colonel now owns the whole Of this valu-
able estate, containing nearly GOO acres
the best farm, by odds. NO judge, ia
Lewis county.
OR,uL We understand that during
the "dry spcll' last week, the tadpoles
and Thugs which had heretofore had ex-
elusive possession Of the waters Of Main
Stree. aud the Alley Canal. got fearfully
ugitated at the prospect, in case dry
weather should become fixture. Why
don't the Mayor and Town Council at
tend properly to the wants Of their sub
marine constituents? Such neglect is
very culpable.
We understand that new tricks are to
DO performed at the show at the Court
House Saturday night.

the burning was entirely accidental, but
the origin Of the fire has not yet been dis
