Village Creek.

Village Greek.
H.. O. DAYTON, Esq, has purchased for
the firm of Dayton, Aldrich & Co., the
property belonging to the Village Creek
Wooden Manufacturing Co., whose build
ing was destroyed by fire last winter. Mr..
Dayton had brought the Factory up to its
position Of prosperity by dint of his re-
markable energy and perseverance, labor
ing through several years of discourage>
ment, when all his prospects of success
and all his worldly wealth were at once
swallowed up in that great calamity. Mr..
Dayton offered $500 for the property
shortly after the fire, but was denied the
privilege of purchase through the opposi-
ton Of enviousness. lie now secures
it for S3,050, the highest bid offered at the
sale. Work has been already resumed on
the dismantled buildings and soon will be
heard again the clicking of the shuttles in
the old factory. We predict long run
of success to the enterprise now that it
fallsinto the sole control Of this most
worthy and reliable manager.-Lansing

sione-,fasdns. no. Con:o .

Ono of tho most elegant, cheap
and durable building materials
which our citizchs can use for con
struction of public or private edii'
ces, is found in the brown sand
stone that crops out in the various
localities within from one to five
miles of the town of Denton, and
apparently existing in almost mex
haustible quantities.
The various chimncys composed
of tliis stone, which have stood for
years, fully attest its durability and
Cheapncss, as well as its adaptabili-
ty to all tho various purposes for
which brick can be used.
When at first quarricd this sand
stone is soft, splits readily at right
angles into any required width,
length or thickness and can be cas-
lily fashioned into any desired shape,
with an old ak. When exposed to
the sun and dir, IT becomes rs hard
and firm rs granite. ..
We have seen not only largo sltGs
of this stone, but blocks six and
eight feet long, and from twelve to
eighteen inches square, straight as
line and ready for tho wall, got
by most rudo appliances.
Wcrc these quarrics oEeh6d and
systematically worked, it requires
no great skill in figures to show
that wall of this stone could be
constructed cheaper than clay can
be made into brick, dried, burned
and placed i'll wall of tie same di-
mensiors; and when finished, would
Bo infinitely superior in beauty, du-
rability and material.
An abundance of a good quality
of limestone can be had within six
or eight miles of town.
With the assistance ofa few in
dustrious, skillfill and ehtcrprizing
storic-masons, We haTo no doubt
ibis rock wall be brought intt gen:

material for building and even fen
