A young woman named Mayfield
formerly from Milton, killed herself on
Monday last by taking arsenic. at West
Randolph.
Charles w. Porter, a young Mont
pelier lawyer, and son of John Porter
of Hartford, has been appointed deputy
secretary of state.
- AT South Royalton, on the evening
of the Sth inst, an attempt was made to
abduct Miss Julia Foster, young lady
% years old. As she stepped to the back
door she was seized by man who pre-
vented any cutlery by covering her face
and mouth with the shawl she wore. In
this position shewas borne some distance
across a field, as she thinks, to where an
accomplice was waiting with a team, in
which she was driven away. She man
aged to escape from her captors, how.
ever, and reached place of safety. =
Meanwhile the citizens had started in
search of her.

but before he could reach the store they
discovered fire and gave an alarm. A
few pals Of water extiuguished ii and
but few people were disturbed, Great
excitement prevailed, however, with re-
gard TO the incendiary and as usual in
such cases, many rumors were aaoat, sus-
pieions circulated as facts, and in this
uncertain state of affairs, one of the oc-
cupants of the block was arrested upon
suspicion of having been seen early at
the fire An examination was commence
ed Monday afternoon, f. L. Cushing of
Charlestown, N. H., appearing for the de-
PENDANT and l.. M. Read, attorney for
the State, which examination was contin-
ued through the day on Tuesday, when
the court adjourned till Monday morn
ing to take an inventory of all the insur-
ed goods in the building.
On Monday night or Tuesday morn
ing the same building was entered again
by some one who was probably frighten-
ed away, but as nothing was disturbed
the whole affair remains a mystery. The
fact that any of our citizens being in
any way connected with the affair does
not gain credence.

JAY GOULD ARREsTED.-The arrest
of Jay Gould Friday. will very likely
be regarded as an incident in the desper-
ate Wall street fight. The Erie direct
ors deny that it is so, and declare that
not only will they press the suit they
have commenced, but that evidence is in
their possession to sustain other and
more extensive claims. We trust the
Erie directors have not mistaken their
own intentions in this matter Mean
time. the spectacle of Jay Gould, bailed
out by Commodore Vanderbilt's mex
friend, and protecting to give the last
screw to his own and his friends corner
in Northwestern is not an encouraging

ALLEGED INSANITY OF Mr.. GREE

night, makes the following startling an
nouncement in reference to Horace Gree
ley 1t is stated on good authority
that Horace Greeley has become insane,
and is now confined in an asylum at
White Plains. His loss of reason is at
tributed to the effects of the death of his
wife and the disastrous defeat suffered
by him in the Presidential election. 1t
is said his friends attempted to obtain
his admittance to Bloomingdale asylum,
but the officers of that institution refus-
ed admission on account of the structures
published in the Tribune in reference to
it. But few, it is stated, are aware of
the actual state of his mind, nearly all
his friends believing him to be ill, sim
ply, from constant attendance on his
wife during her illness"
