Cumberland COuntr.-The following

Cumberland COunty.-The following
items we copy from the Cumberland Coun-
ty papers of last week:
At an early hour (about ten o'clock on
Monday night last, a fire broke out in the
large stable belonging to Mr.. Robert Civ
en-, in Carlisle, Immediately in the rear of
his fine residence and banking house, West
High street. Our firemen, with their three
fine steamers, were soon on hand, and
managed the fire remarkably well by con-
filming it to the stable alone. The stable
being brick with tin roof, the fire was
confined in the inside.
Warrants were recently issued for the
arrest of six young men of Chambersburg,
charged with the burning of Coles stable
in March last Two of the parties were
arrested, and the other two made good their
escape. One of them gave bail in 81, 900,
but in default of So, the other three
were committed to Jail. Another of the
parties subsequently surrendered himself to
the sheriff.
Richard w. Lockard, resident of
Mount Holly, an employee in one of the
Paper Mills of that place, was found dead
by some of the girls employed in the fac
tory on Monday morning last. The deceas-
ed committed the act by fastening a rope
to spike in an open shed near the com
pany's mill, and when found was in sit
ting posture, with life extinct. His de-
termination to destroy life is apparent from
the fact that when raised to an upright po-
sition, the rope was entirely slack. No
reason was given for the rash act
On Tuesday last, as the 10, 80 a. M, train
west, was leaving Shippensburg, and when
opposite Wunderlich & Mell's machine
shop, Mr.. A. II. Brogenier, in attempting
to get on the train, fell with his left foot
upon the track, and the wheels of the for
ward track passed over it, fracturiDg the
metatarsal bones of the whole foot. Mr..
B. was from HagerstOwn, Md, and was
returning from Altoona. H..tt.

Junlata County.-From the Juniat;


County papers we copy the following:
About ten days ago, Alexander Harris
and family, left Beale township, in this
county, to settle on farm recently pur-
chased by Mr. Harris in the State of Il
linois. We are sorry to learn that Mrs.
Harris, in getting off the cars at Leland sta
tion, in Illinois, by some mishap had one of
her feet so badly crushed by getting it un-
der one of the wheels of the cars as to re-
quire amputation.
A citizen of Thompsontown writes us as
follows in regard to the robbery of the Post
Office in that place last Saturday night |:
"The Post Office in this town was burglar
iously entered on Saturday night 7th inst,
and robbed of fpostage stamps, ranging from
/ cent up to 10 cents, amounting TO $16 85
and large U s. envelope or pouch marked
Post Master at Thompsontown,' contain
ing the stamps. The burglars also took
from Mrs. e. James, post mistress, six
boxes of cigars, marked ]. b. Wolf and
other goods, amounting to about $35 90 in
value. The burglars, failing to force the
door open, gained an entrance through the
transom above the door. The implements
used to force their way in, were left in the
post Office and have since been identified
by Mr.. 7. 8. Thompson as his pinchbars,
taken from his saw mill.''
On the 4th inst, James Magruder, of
Walker twp, broke his arm by fall in his
fathers barn.

Hot PIace.--A few evenings since a
lady residing in this town, shortly after
placing fresh supply of wood in her stove,
heard peculiar noise coming from the
interior of the fire. Looking for the cause,
she soon saw the head of a sna Ike coming
out of the stove. Selling a shovel she
held his snakeship until the fire had killed
him, during the whole of which time he con-
tinued to make the same singular noise. He
proved to be snake nearly two feet long
and had probably curled himself up in a
hollow stick for winter quarters.

hid himself in the woods, though pursued
by the two young men who fired revolver

further investigated, and hope the thief
will be brought to trial. The many thefts
which have been committed in that vicinity
this fall, cause a general feeling of alarm
to exist among those who have any per-

of the proper officials to give the affair a

A Boy ShOt.-A most daring and viii
lainous act was perpetrated upon boy
named Grant Kline, in Monaghan town
ship, on Tuesday, the 3rd inst, the par
ticulars of which have been furnished to us
and are as follows:
Daniel and William Fetrow, of Lisburn,
were on their way home from rabbit hunt
with their guns, and in passing the school
house at Anderstown, Grant Kline and
another boy came out for bucket of coal,
when William Fetrow called to Kline and
told him that he was going to shoot him.
He then Immediately threw up his gun,
took deliberate aim at the boy and fired,
the shot striking him in the side; when he
called to his brother for his gun, saying
that he wanted to give him another fire.
The boy fell to the ground, and the whole
school became very much alarmed at the
unexpected and dastardly assault upon one
of the scholars. Fortunately the boys
wounds are not of a very serious nature,
and he will speedily recover from its eff
feets. The father Of the boy being appris-
ed Of the circumstance, followed the Fet-
rows, and overlook them in Daniel Hartz's
meadow. He knocked them down with
his fist and pommeled them effectually for
their villainous assault upon his boy. We
have not learned whether legal proceedings
have been instituted against the party
