A Stormy Night.

SUNDAY night last, about nine o'clock, the
dark ominous clouds, that had been hanging
over the city all day, burst forth in terrific
and driving rain and hail storm, while the
raging wind seemed as if dete rmined to carry
destruction with Il wherever its blasts pene-
trated. Trees bowed, houses shook, window
panes ratified with the beating hail, and the in
mates of homes around cheerful fires were dis
tressed for the result The fercest part OF the
storm abated after all hours time, but all night
the wind and rain kept up its forces, The
lightning flashed and played sthwart the dark
menacing elements in frghtful activity, while
strange as it may seem, the thunders reverbsra-
ted with all the wonted sameness that ACCOM-
pany summers evening shower. Next morn
ing fences were prostra ted in numerous instan-
ces, and Sewell's building had some Of its roof
ing blown up. We hear of no serious damage
in the city, but in the country and in the coun-
ty of Cherokee, several houses We're blown
down, aud the FORESTS were deprived of some
Of their sturdy trees.

DIR, Hartzell's Lecture.

The closing lecture of the course by
Rev. DR.. Hartzell on Wednesday eve.
was a most fine, scholarly and eloquent
production. DIR. Hartzell is truly in the
first rank in the lecture field. The sub
ect was "The door of opportunity,
which was treated with master hand,
strnng with incidents, broad and extern
sive in research, deep thought and close
and progressive application. During
its delivery, he stepped aside from his
manuscript for moment, and delivered
most fine and eloquent, as well as
touching and deserved tribute to the late
Horace Greeley. AS the speaker warns
with his subject he becomes powerfully
in earnest and almost oblivious to the
presence of an audience. 1t is hardly
necessary to add in this brief notice that
the lecture was received by good audi
ence, with close interest and attention
throughout. as well as cordial satisfac-
ton.

THE LUMBER SEAsoN.-The winter
in northern Vermont has been SO severe
that but very little numbering is being
done. Some mills are not stocking UP
at all, other putting in perhaps one-hali
their usual stock, while occasionally one
is getting nearly its usual supply. The
weather has been very cold and dry
which has made the roads almost lmpas
sable with the amount of snow and the
heavy winds, which prevent the roads
from packing, keeping the snow loos,
and soft. Taking the country drained
by the Connecticut and Passumsic Riv.
ers not more than one-fourth the usua
amount of lumber will be cut, which
must seriously affect the interests of tn,
consumers of Vermont lumber.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-The Rutland
Herld says that a serious accident &C.
Cured to Mr.. Gardner, conductor on an
extra freight train from this place to
Rutland, on Saturday last, while nearing
the Rutland depot yard. '1n attempt
ing to go to the forward end of his train
he started down ladder at the end of a
box car, to reach platform car. One
Of the rounds in the ladder had been
broken out aud was not noticed by him,
he, therefore, lost his hold and footing
falling between the rails, with his right
arm on the rail. Two wheels of a car
prssed over the arm, and with wonder
ful presence of mind and quickness, he
threw himself outside of the rails before
the rear trucks of the car reached him.
Mr.. Gardner says he realized, while he
lay there, that he must get out of the
position he was in before the rear trucks
of the car reached him, or he should be
killed by the break beam, and wonder
full to write, he did it a. got upon his
feet, and ran forward to the front to his
train, telling the engineer to stop, as he
had been run over. He walked after
the accident to the Berwick Hotel, VIII ere
he now is, in charge of Dr. Allen. AT
the time of the accident, Gardner had
on two heavy coats, and this is thought
to have saved the arm from being cut off
though the bone of the arm was crushed.
1t is thought strange as it may seem,
that the arm will be saved"

Though the weather was severely cold and stormy

family who have preceded her to the life incorrupt
And may the faith. that we all shall meet her
amid the gories of that world Of light sustain and

blessed Saviour" not my will but thine be done"
Deep is the grief of each stricken heart.
That from our loved one we're called to part
Just as she'd entered into lifes bloom,
Silently sadly, she's borne to the tomb
Her suferings are Ger. she is now at rest
In that beautiful home among the blest
Our guardian angel she now will be.
And she whispers, " Friends, don't weep for me- -
Stern is the mandate. 9 Be ye reconciled."
A parents prayer is. Come back my child.
But an answer comes in a voice serene,
Ye soon must follow over the stream.
How oft with smile did she greet us
As we stood around her sick bed
And as she passed to the world of light
To her brothers call. said her life, it's right
Asleep in Jesus Martha. blessed rest
