ATTEMPT TO BURN THE CRESCENT CITY
SLAuGHTERHOUsE.-La night. a little
after eleven o'clock, an attempt was made
to bnrn down the extensive buildings. or. at
least the most important of them, belong
ing to the Crescent. City Slaughterhouse
Company, below Algiers.
The fire was discovered and put out be-
fore it had gained much Roadway. or done
a great amount Of damage. On examiua-
ton, it was found that large quantity of
coal oil, apparently mixed with turpentine
had been spread over the floor and other
parts Of the building, and over the pile of
coal near the steam engine belonging to the
works.
The incendiaries have not as vet been dis
covered. but there are several reasons for
believing that the combustible material had
been transported across the river earlier in
the evening. The head Waterman crossed
the river about midnight to see the superin-
tendent of the slaughterhouse. and repre-
sent the necessity Of having larger force
of watchmen for premises so extensive.

the law or take the consequences. As
the result Of this step, those who have not
closed their places ofbusiness are looking
for purchasers. The right must and will
triumph even in Bristol.
The building season is fairly upon us.
The sound of the hammer and saw are

MIDDLEBURY CoLLEdE--JUNIoR EXmIBI-
TIos.-The exhibition of the Junior Glass
will take place in the Village Hall Tues
day evening April Goth, commencing
promptly at o'clock, doors open $50.
Many who have been accustomed to at
tend these annual exhibitions, have doubt
less been annoyed by considerable numbers
of small boys and others in the audience,
who came not because they desired to give
attention to the exercises, but because it
was free entertainment, and they had
nothing else to do. Those who desire to
hear and WHO have been prevented by the
disturbance of these noisy loiterers, will
doubtless learn with no small degree Of
satisfaction, that the class, by the advice
of the Faculty has determined TO disre'
gard the old custom Of free exhibitions
and for the purpose Of securing M audi,
ence Of only those who desire to hear, and
are disposed to let others hear, will charge
an admittance fee Of twenty-five cents. II
is believed this course will meet with the
hearty appreciation of all who really wish
to hear the exercises and will secure al
attentive and appreciative audience
