After tllp Fire.

Mr.. DAVID LoWENDERG has opcned
his clothing store anew, few doors
above his former place of business, on
Main Street, where he is fully prepared
to wait upon his customers with all the
suavity and blandi shment of manner
for which heis distinguished. Although
the insurance company acted fairly
with him in settling the amount of in
surance without improper delay, his
loss by the fire is heavy, and the present
circumstances therefore afford a fitting
opportunity for those who appreciate
his uniform gener osity to attest their
regard by friendly tokens in the way
of patronage. 1t is highly proper TO
say that this suggestion is ours and not
MIR. LowENBERG's.
We believe that none of the other suf-
ferers by the fire have yet obtained
places for business. The burnt district,
it is stated, will not be built up by two
of the present owners, but the third
would probably join party to build up
the entire burnt block with structure
that would be credit to Bloomsbury.
1t Is an admirable situation for store
rooms-and what is great ly needed in
bloomsbury, a large public hall, or
opera room. We trust it may attract
the attention of some of our capitalists.
p. S. We learn that Mr.. LowEN-
BERG has purchased the corner lot from
Mr. DREHER, for $500, whereon he
will Immediately erect three story
building, to be occupied as A store room

THE hail storm of Sunday had the
good effect of cooling the atmosphere
and Kidding us of the hot ,ultry wealth
cr for brief time at least. Hail fell
here of the size of hulled walnuts but
not in great number. Some windows
were broken but otherwise little dam
age was done. We have not heard of
serious damage occurring in the county
and presume there was none. The Mum
cy L,tminary relates that at that place
much damage was done to vegetation
generally, one man losing not less than
50 bushels of grapes. Much injury was
also done to corn, oats, &c. in that re.
gion. The same paper says that below
the Muncy hills the storm was still
more severe. The roofs of houses and
barns were cut through, corn was cut
Off close TO the ground and oats utterly
destroyed. This is the most serious in
jury we notice, though the storm seems
to have traversed a pretty extensive
portion Of the State.
THE LATE FIRE.-We are glad to
learn that al the losses occasioned by
the late fire in Bloomsbury have been
promptly paid or settled, SO far as they
were covered by insurance, The fol-
lowing list, the correctness of which
may be relied on, embraces the amounts

States. While their lands are continuously
devoted to cotton aud tobacco, until they
have arrived at state of exhaustion, those
of the North are continually improving by
rotation of crops; which is absolutely essen
tial to the life of the soil itself, and without
which farming and planting had better DC
abandoned. These impressions have induced
me to turn my attention to these States, to
seek by some mode by which the influence
of this department. may be directed to bcne.

especially their seeds, may not be greatly

seeds and plants, We may best reach those to
whom they may be profitably sent. The
