Great Success of the orth-west Fur Co. ! (!
On Friday last per Wellington's I'M
failing express we received in full vigor
and prime of life, duly Gagged, large
horn-owl, trophy of the nocturnal sue
cess of "The North West Fur Co.," from
their attorney and "per order of the
president Not wishing to be outdone
in enterprise by this far famed Co., we
have procured at great expense" a
life like picture of this immortal bird
as seen above. The North. Westers are
too modest of their laurels to give us an
account of how their valor and bravery
won this astronomical observer, but it is
evident their last expedition was of
scientific character, and that they have
thus added to their promising future new
and most extraordinary expectations.

GRAFToN.-On Wednesday the LIST
inst, two merry companies one from
East Westminster and one from Cam
bridgeport, with outfits amply adequate
to the requirements of the occasion, exc
cuted the very sensible purpose OF cele-
brating new years day, by sleigh ride
to Grafton and testing the quality of
Mtssrs. Phelps fat turkeys and the usual
accompaniment, which all agree proved
entirely satisfactory, wanting in nothing
fully to answer the demands of the most
fastideous epicure. And yet they affirm
they still have in store an abundant sup
ply of the same All event merry as
marriage bell, each gentleman thought
himself most favored while the counte-
nances Of rosy checked damsels clearly
indicated that in their opinion sleigh
ride even on a cold day, was neither to
be feared or dreaded.
The extreme cold weather and crusty
surface of the snow so much interferes
with hunting operations that the North
Westers have decided to discount 5 per
cent from current prices on all fox skins
taken on the West hill previous to the
10Th day of February next. X.

SAD AFFAIR AT FELCHvILLE.-Mr.
Harris Kendall, respectable citizen,
about forty years of age, shot himself at
Felchville on Friday, January Sd. Some
weeks ago his wife died leaving him
childless and alone. Since her death he
has been melancholy and frequently has
said he wished he was with her in the
graveyard. Mr.. Kendall borrowed the
pistol that morning, saying he would
like to buy it. Leading it he at first
fired it, and reloading it went into the
street, where neighbor was shoveling
snow from the sidewalk, made some re-
marx about the snow, put the revolver
to his bosom, fired, held the pistol above
his head, told who it belonged to, and
said he had got done with it, and sank
down and died. The ball entered Just
above his heart No cause is assigned
for the fatal deed except the deranged
mind from the death OF his wife.
Since the above was received cores
pendent sends US the following:
The act was done in the public street
and in full view of several persons. He
had but recently recovered from severe
sickness with typhoid fever, and had,
also, recently buried his wife to whom
he was very much attached. The effect
of the fever and the loss of his wife had
so severely taxed his mind, that in his
despair and grief, a deep melancholy
came over him, and in an hour when
reason was temporarily dethroned, be
took his own life, wishing as he express
ed himself, to be laid by the side of his
wife. Mr.. Kendall was 43 years of age,
a farmer, extensively known, and in all
respects an honorable, upright man.

on her way to Woodstock, to attend the
funeral of Mrs. Converse; and Mrs. Ed

CAueHr.-AN EXCITING CHASE

CAuGHT-AN EXCITING CHASE
Edward Shiette, the noted burglar. who
recently escaped from Jail at Burlington
was reca ptured, alter an exciting chase,
at Colchester Point, last week. He
crossed Lake Champlain twice. with
great risk to his life, the ice being only
two inches in thickness, holly pursued
by two young farmers of South Hero,
named Martin and Crown.
The Burlington Free Press has an in
terestiDg account of the chase during
which Martin and Crown chased Shiette
on the ice in their stocking feet and get
ting within 20 rods of him fired their re-
volvers at him twice, but without effect,
whereupon he turned round, waved his
handkerchief, and shouting opprobious
epithets, defed them to catch up with
him. On went the chase till Saiette
came up to some boys skating, and &C.
costing them, said; "There is man
broke out of Jail at Burlington, and l
am after him; let me have your skates,
and you hold my rubbers for few min
utes." 1t took but a moment for him to
buckle on his skates, and away he struck
like deer for the south end of the
Island, reaching there about dark
When Martin and Crown discovered
that Shiette had taken the ice again,
Martin went to house about mile off,
and got a pair of skates, and started
himself in pursuit, but was two miles
behind him, when he reached the other
shore. Shiette finally hauld up at the
house of Joseph Pasha, on Colchester
Point, where it was expected he would
go, and which was surrounded by sew
eral policemen who had been watching
the premises, and to whom he surrender
ed. The bravery and daring of Martin
and Crown, the two young farmers of
South Hero, who volunteered the pursuit
of this extraordinary criminal, at the
risk of their lives, is spoken of by every
one in terms of unqualified admiration.
Shiette was taken to jail at Burlington
where he was visited by hundreds to
whom he was quite laxative and proud
of his exploit.

and occupied by Mr.. Abram Williamson.

Upon returning the found the clothes
on fire with the chair nearly burned and
the carpet ablsze. A few minutes more
and the house would have been on fire,
with probabilities that it would have been
consumed.
