MT. HOLLY.-INCENDIAR - From
the evidence before US we are led to be-
lieve that most wicked state of affairs
exist in this vicinity. On Saturday night
last most dastsrdly attempt was made to
burn the buildings of E. A. Priest, by
saturating shavings, paper and cloth with
kerosene oil, and throwing it into his hog
pen and upon the roof After this occur
rance a close watch was made upon the
property, night and day, until last Mon
day night, when Two men were detailed
to watch, one remaining as sentinel while
the other slept. At length fire was dis
covered issuing from the barn, and inn
mediately all the help at hand was sum.
moned, but all attempts to save the build
ing proved unavailing. The track of a
person was followed nearly to the woods
and then given up. The great question
is, who was the Internal miscreant who at
midnight would imperil, not only the
property, but the lives of such as were in
the house? When the fire was set the
wind was blowing in just the direction to
burn both the barn and house, but by
great effort and by the storm of snow and
sleet then prevailing, together with water
which was plentifully used, the house
was saved.
We would advise the town to offer a
reward for the apprehension of the vile
wretch, whoever he may be,
CURTIS.

FIRST BOAT OF THE SEASON. - The
Free Press says: The steamer A. Will
liams, Capt. Corbin, came over from
Plattsburgh, Saturday morning, with a
load of 90 or 80 passengers-the first
steamboat arrival of the season. The ice
was quite strong in Pittsburgh Bay up
to Friday night, SO strong that men were
out upon it near the docks during the day.
In the evening, under strong west Wind
the ice commenced moving about II p. m,
and Saturday morning the bay was clear
Capt. Corbin will run, for the present
and until the Cha mplain Transportation
Company's boats commence their trips.
between here and Plattsburgh, leaving
Plattsburgh with his staunoh new boat at
8 a. m, and returning in the afternoon,
leaving Burlington probably at 3 p. m.
This is, so far as we know, the earliest
opening of steamboat navigation on rec
ord. The earliest date at which the line
boats have come out, in 80 years, is April
4 !; that was in the year 1884. The aver.
age time of their coming out has been
about April 10Th, and in one year, 1S47
the broad lake was closed by ice till April
"a, and the boats were not out till May 2
The season, in respect to navigation, as in
other respects, is just about a month in
advance of the average.

BENNINaToN.-At the annual town
meeting in Bennington, series of resolu-
tions were adopted by large majority,
instructing the town authorities not to
pay the bonds issued by the town to build
the Lebanon Springs railroad until the
liability of said town to liquidate the
bonds shall be established by the final de-
cision of the courts. The reasons given
for this action are that the act of the Leg
islature, by virtue of which the bonds
were issued is unconstitutional; that the
assent of the taxpayers was in many in
stances obtained by deception and fraud ;
and that the town of Bennington has not
received any valuable consideration or
equivalent for the bonds so issued. Charles
N. Davenport, Esq, of Brattleboro. and
Alexander Huling, Esq, of Bennington,
were elected as attorneys to act in behalf
of the town.
