A large wood-pile, at East W-alling-
ford, containing about two thousand
cords belonging to the Vermont Central
Railroad Company, caught fire from the
sparks Of a passing locomotive, about
fifteen minutes after twelve Yesterday
(Thursday) afternoon. The fire spread
rapidly and at nine o'clock last evening
was still making steady progress, about
one thousand cords Of wood, at that
time, having been consumed. Washing
ton Fire Engine was sent from this
place to aid in extinguishing the flames
and, at the present writing, is still on
duty.
A large fire nearly mile in extent
was burning last night on the summit Of
the Green Mountains directly east of
this village. How far back, on the east
side of the mountain, it extended it is,
of course. impossible to estimate.
Fires are also reported in the woods
through the towns of Clarendon and
Wallingford coming down. in some in
stances, near the track of the Rutland
railroad and also endangering barns and
other buildings.

Spring has arrived and is producing
pleasant sensations. The recent rains
and pleasant weather have caused ma
ture to emerge from her chrysalis state
of rest and assume once more her robes
of beauty. The fields are growing YER
dant, the buds of trees are swelling and
developing their foliage, the fowls of
the air and earth, too, are singing, the
beasts Of the field are grazing on the
Green slopes, the villagers are showing
signs of outdoor life, the gardens are
being worked, the grain is being sown,
and the cOuntenances of farmers, !
fancy, assumes a brighter hue. We hail
this annual resurrection of the visible
creatiOn-nature repeating itself in har-
mOny with the inspired acknowledge
ment of Holy Writ, "God reneweth the
face of the earth"
Work has been recommended on Dr.
S. d. Hazens house which was begun
last fall. FIe has one of the most eligi-
bic lots in the village, and the building
he is erecting will be a good one and
will make him, and - perhaps, a
pleasant home. The architecture and
mechanical work is under the superin-
tendcnce Of ''MacKnight," one of Yer
mont's best mechanics, Yesterday,
however, while at work on the building
Mr.. NJ fell about IS feet and dislocat-
ed the shoulder joint of the left arm
and sustained other injuries. DR.. Hazen
was called.
A new millinery shop has been
opened by Mrs. Morrow and Miss Star
key; and Miss Earle continues in the
same business at the old place
-CLas. ". Marsh has opened an in
surance Office at his residence He rep
rcscnts fourteen fire companies and is
the State Agent Of the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company of Newark, y.
J, He reports doing a good business.
The water works here are still in
litigation. 4 year or two ago few en-
terprising citizens formed a company
for the purpose Of introducing excellent
soft water from one or more large
springs located on high eminence far
above the village. They laid the main
pipe and their branch pipes to their
dwellings. The litigation is with the
proprietor of some land through which
the main pipe is laid. 1t is ardently
desired that the suit may soon be amica-
bly, settled, and that all the familics of
tnlS place may secure a supply OF tins
good water Doubtless this movement
would contribute to the health, safety
and prosperity of the village. Besides
furnishing water for culinary purposes,
the works, with hydrants properly adj
iusted at convenient distances, with a
reservoir built a few rods above us to
hold a reserve surplus Of water, and
asufIicient quantity of hose, would be
better than an engine for the purpose of
eXtinguishing fires. The company have
already expended about $500. and it is
estimated that from 81, 900 to 81, 800
more would secure these desirable re-
suits The utility of such Improvements
should not be questioned.
Butter is selling in this market for
24 and % cents, and potatoes for 35
cents.

The "recuIiar PeopIe.-
CURIOUS YAGARIEs OF A CURIOUS eEcT
IN GREAT BRITAIN

The London Daily Neaes reports the
following in regard to curious sect
which has lately attracted much atten-
ton in the English courts:
An investigation was concluded yester-
day at Plumstead, relative To the death
of Cecilia Hurry, aged seven years.
whose father is an elder Of the sect
called Peculiar People, who consider
medical assistance unnecessary in cases
of any sickness which may befall the
faithful The evidence of the parents
and several others belonging to the sect,
showed that the child was attacked with
the allpoX, and that the elders prayed
over it, laid hands on it, and ..annoint-
ed ii with oil in the name of the Lord,
according TO the teaching Of the scrip
lures, and that they never thought of
such a thing as sending for a doctor,
putting all their trust in God. They
stated that they saw the child sink day
by day, until ii died on the eleventh day
after the attack, nothing being admins
tered TO il in the shape of medicine, and
only little arrow root and wine TO
nourish the body. DIR. Ryley, the po-
lice surgeon, said that he had made
post mOrtem examination, and found
that the child had died from continent
small pUX, a disease which, if left TO
run its course, must almost inevitably
prove fatal Besides medical necessaries
the child ought to have had proper food,
and its hair should have been cut off to
relieve the brain and various precautions
adopted such as science had devised for
such cases. The disease was both infec-
tiOus and contagious, and it was highly
reprehensible for the elders to go about
laying hands on persons so affected, and
then proceeding to perform the operation
on some one else, by which means the
disease was doubtless spread all over the
place. The deceased had not been vac
cinated, and the Peculiar People de-
clared they did not believe in yaccina-
tiOn or cOntagiOn, the result being that
there had been a great many cases of
small pOx among them. The coroner
having remarked on the frequency of
these cases among the sect at Woolwich,
and Plumstead, where they number
about fifty souls, and the danger TO So
ciety at large of permitting such doc
trines to prevail, especially in reference
to such a disease as small pOx, told the
father of the child that il was as reas-
enable to expect divine Intervention in
removing pecuniary or physical Difficult
ties as in curing the sick, when science
had devised remedies, and reminded him
of the fable of the wagner, who prayed
for the removal of his wagon from the
rut instead of putting his own shoulder
to the wheel The father, however,
still declared that he should trust only in
the Great Physician; and the jury. af-
ter deliberating in private, returned a
verdict of ''manslaughter, against him.
The Peculiar People to the number of
about 40 attended the inquest, sang
hymns at the back of the house while
the jury considered the verdict, and ac-
companied Hurry in body to the station.
He was afterwards brought before po-
lice magistrate and committed to New
gate for trial without bail.

The Suicide of Mr. Spencer.

Coroner Herman, of New York, on
Wednesday, held an inquest at his Of
flee in the City Hall over the remains of
Mr.. Lewis P. NJ. Spencer, who shot him
self through the head at the Merchants
Hotel, on Monday night. No cause for
tie act Is know except great physical
suffering. He was in good circumgtan-
ces, and had in his possession nearly two
hundred dollars in ready money and
drafts, besides two trunks, a valise, gold
watch and chain, etc. The jury render
ed a verdict in accordance with the fore
going facts. His remains were taken to
East Clarendon, yesterday, for inter-
ment. The effects left by Mr.. Spencer
will be delivered to his widowed mother.
His funeral took place at the resi-
dence of his mother, Friday afternoon,
at 2 o'clock

Ludlow.

Last Wednesday evening, as Mr.. B.
W. Merrill was driving from Chester to
Ludlow he was thrown from his car
riage and badly injured. 1t appears
that one of the wheels ran off, and
frightened the horse. The horse ran to
the village, and was recognized as the
one belonging to Merrill, who was found
living at the road side about a mile be-
low the village. He was badly bruised
about his head and back, and, when he
was brought home, was in a half-con-
scious state He could recognize his
friends but did not seem to know what
the trouble was. He is not thought to
be in a dangerous situation. R.

AS a school it is one Of the best in the
State. 1t is remarkable for good order
and thOroughness. Many of the boys
enter the school unable to read even with
tOlerable accuracy. Very few have pre-
yiously studied primary geography or
arithmetic. A half hours visit in TIE
school room viii satisfy most any one
that the first four rules" Of arithmetic
are better studied and more thoroughly
mastered there than in the average Of
the best half Of the public schools of
Vermont.
Under the present management it is
proposed to allow boys whose records
are good and whose homes will warrant
it, to go home on furlOughs. And when
the work on the shOol farm will allow it,
boys will be furlOughed to suitable pla-
ces-thc school retaining control of their
persons and earnings. An account Of
each furloughcd boys earnings and eX-
ponscs for clothing will be kept and on
his discharge at majority, or by pardon,
he will 90 out with the balance Of his
earnings in hand. Were the school a
prison this would be a strange plan, but
as it is ameans to reform boys and make
good men Of them it will prove eminent
" wise thus to encourage good behavior,
diligence and ideas Of economy,
