TRAGICAL INCIDENT.-As further aud
more authoritative particulars reach US
in regard to the mar tragical incidents
connected with the Destruction OF Chic =
go, we see more anc more roeecu Why
hearts should bleed and pockets open.
Some incrednlity has already been ex-
pressed with respect to the rumored
birth of five hundred children on the
preirie arouod Chicago and in the streets
of that city during Monday and Tuesday
nights of last week. The latest informa-
ton that has been received, however, fur.
nishes reasons for believing that that ru-
NOR represented a literal truth. The
Chicago Tribune of Saturday declares
that physician, whose word is to be I'M
questionably accepted, states that five
hundred children were born on the prairie
and in the streets upon the dates above
specified. As we have before earnestly
pleaded, this is the time for action, not
mere sentiment. The more the heart
bleeds, the mere the people ought to open
their pockets.

INcENDIARY FIRES AT KEENE.-J. :.
Tufts & Co.'s earthenware mandatory
at Keene was totally destroyed, early Sun
day morning, by fire, supposed to be in
cendiary; loss not less than $4,000; IN
sured for $1,000. On Sunday afternoon
another alarm was caused by the leaves
and, brush in a grove in the outskirts Of
the village taking fire, but the flames were
promptly subdued. On Monday, the
American House in the same place was
found to be on fire in an upper room, but
prompt discovery prevented much dam
age. The fire was burning in bundle OF
clothes in closet, end must have been in
cendiary. The furniture Of the room and
some clothing were burned, besides which
there was some damage by water. A dense
smoke prevailed all day Sunday in the vi
cinity of Keene, caused, it is supposed, by
large fires in the Green mountains.

Editor RutZ1nd Herald We left Gin

is the shortest route, we shall not recon-
mend it to your readers az the most COM
Portable, but perhaps we saw it darkly
under cloud, perhaps there is some
times a chance to get berth in the sleep
ing car, perhaps there are times when
less than sixteen actual fast infants are
congregated in the same car, and it is pos
sible that the conductor and brakemen are
sometimes accommodating--if such times
tune in not happening on them. Two or
three of us got together and attempt to
philosophise, and repeat all the old Saws"
that we know about "what can't be cured"
etc, etc, but after an hour or two that
gets tiresome and our spirits sink when
we look forward to three hundred and
forty miles Of it.
There is nothing in the scenery to in
terest the traveller; for long distance the
road traverses the bottom lands, which
have a heavy dry soil, which seems espe-
cially adapted, and extensively used for
the resting place of Toys. We see many
of the oldest and most primitive style of
log cabins-built of logs and clay, but all
looks old, dirty and dilapidated. The
people seam to be far below the average

One of the leading crops Of this section
is the cabbage. 1t is almost q failure this

to the German citizens of Cincinnati and

they are said to be superior to all thus far

PRocToRsvILLE.-On the night of the

ROCTORsvILLE.-Ont the night of the
10th inst, some State Prison birds levi.
IDENTIFY two of them) stole horse, harness
and buffalo robe from E. n. Atherton's
barn. about a mile below Duttonsville,-
and wagon from Mr.. L. Willard, his
neie hbor, hitched them together and
drove them to this village, and out on the
road toward Chester. Called at the
slaughter house of E. D. Smell & Co., and
stole three beef skins, takenIfrom the cattle
the day before, lot of sheep pelts, and
went on their way leaving their tracks in
the sandy road. AT an early hour Mason
A. Smell on going to the slaughter house
discovered the evidences of his loss, when
he and Mr.. G. L. Cass started in pursuit.
Tracking the rascals through Chester,
they found at the town farm, in tie north
western part of Rockingham. that the
thieves had left Athertou's horse, put HE
harness upon fresh horse belonging TO a
nan from Peru, who was staying in the
neig borhood that night, and had moved
on toward Bellows Falls. About five
o'clock in the morning, it is believed, the
rogues ran the toll bridge and landed in
New Hampshire. Since which, we learn,
no reliable trace of them has been found,
but it is now thought they turned up the
river toward Canada. Mr.. Anterior,
though recovering his horse loses bis bar
ness and robe, Mr.. Willard his buggy
and MI Smell about $40 in value of hides
and pelts.
Capt Geo. B. French, clerk Of Wind
sor County Court, has returned from bis
wanderings in Utah and on the Pacific
coast, and is now on a visit to his father
house here.
Capt. James Hall, at the age of So
years, one OF the frat children who settled
in Cavendisb, is still living on Twenty
Mile Stream, hale and hearty. We met
him few days since in our streets and
from half hours conversation learned
much of the early local history of the
town. Another of the "ancient and ION
orables-full of rich relics and interesting
memories of the past generation-and
with whom it is treat to have an hours
chat, is found in the person of Samuel
Adams, Esq, of Duttonsville, now in his
SD year. Using neither tea, coffee or
tobacco, nor for % years drop OF intoxi-
eating drinks, not even cider, one can
we'll understand the purity of the blood
which courses his veins. For some fifty
consecutive years Mr.. Adams has been
Justice of the Peace IN town, and has
tried more cases probably than any other
magistrate in this vicinity, unless, indeed
Josiah Gibson, ESQ, of this village may
have eoualed him. Mr.. Adams was a
soldier of the war of 1912, and has just
received bis pension certificate. II we
remember right from personal conversa-
ton few weeks ago, with Mr.. Adams Of
bis adventures on the C4uaai4n frontier.
he served in the cavalry Of that day, and
our young men would do we'll 10 Ii-teD
and heed the good advice he gives them,
and whether on foot or horseback keep
sober, keep clean, keep decent, aad enjoy
good health.
We learn that fires are burning On
the Ludlow mountain, and that several
hundred cords of wood, cut for railroad
market and belonging TO F. Chafee, Esq,
of Rutland, are consumed.

SHOE CoMPANY.-We are Informed by q
perfectly reliable authority that the state
ment that the North Bennington Boot
aud Shoe Company had but $3S, 900 in
surance on its stock destroyed in the Chi
cago fire is quite erroneous. Our friend
says be was in Chicago at the time of the
fire and saw the Company's list of poll
cies, which were thirty in number, most
" in respectable Eastern Companies,
and amounted to S132,500. He adds /:
"The loss had not been exactly ascer-
tanned when left Chicago, but was esti-
mated to be in the neighborhood of $780,

The BONAPABTES AND THE FRENCH.
The ex-Emperor Napoleon declares bis
belief that the government OF the French
republic is weak and ''inadequate to the
wants of the country" Prince Napoleon
travelling to Marseilles ran in danger of
being made prisoner by the French peo-
pie at Valence. He was forced to show
his safe conduct pass from the Theirs
Cabinet, and was subsequently, Kissed
from the town. This was certainly a
pretty strong action, and if the republic
of France truly represents the people of
the country it should not lack tone and
force, as the ex-ruler alleges it does.

where no church or religious privileges
existed, and in the face Of the feTeest op-

and had erected fne chapel. at the cost
of $1,000. No subscription had been
raised for the purpose, but free will off-r-
ings left debt of but 5000 now remain

ance upon the Lord of the Vineyard.
A contribution of SAP in aid Of the OBJ

The CROPS IN IRELAND.-The news

The CROPS IN IRELAND.-The news
received from Ireland, regarding the con-
dition of the crops in that unfortunate
country, is not at all encouraging. The
prospects are gloomy enough to justify
the anticipation that the poorer classes,
especially those in the country districts,
will suffer severely during the coming
winter The yield of the wheat, oats and
barley crops has decreased, and COMPARE
son with that of last year shows that the
diminution will be considerably lower
than what was expected. The turnip
crop has also fallen off To swell, as it
were, the miseries of the Irish tenant far
mer, to add to his misfortunes and render
his difficulties more perplexing, the po-
tato blight has again visited his fields
In the South it ia estimated that one
third Of the yield will prove bad, while
in other parts it is reported from one-half
to two-thirds Of the present crop will turn
out unsound. This is melancholy re-
cord, and may be productive of new
troubles among the poorer classes. A
plentiful harvest brings peace and happi-
ness to the cotter's home, but with short
yields and diseased crops discomfort and
disturbances are likely to follow.
