BURNING OUT CHIMSEYs. The fol-
lowing sensible article we copy from
one of our exchanges: Chimneys should
he attended to every Autumn, if we
would avoid the fright of their taking
fire. Many valuable homestead has
been destroyed from negligence in this
matter. SCOT accumulates very rapid
ly, and.much sooner with some kinds
ofcoal than others, and there is also a
difference in the wood. If n chimney
takes fire, the readiest means to stop Il
is to apply II wet table cloth, hearth
rug or blanket to the whole front of
the CRATE or fireplace, and either hold
or pin it close into the jamb, then lift
up the bottom far enough to throw
pail of water on the fire. If a pistol is
fired up chimney it will bring down
quantities of SCOT, and it is an easy way
to clean out small chimney. 4 few
handfuls of salt thrown into the fire
place or crate will put out the fire.

cure of all Lung complaints,
and is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
of over forty years. When

Fiw.-On Tuesday night 10th inst, the
barn on the property of Mrs. Louisa Coop
er, miles above our borough, and near
Lees bridge over the Octoraro, was burn
ed to the ground. Supposed to be the
work of an iucindiary. The fire was dis
covered about midnight.
Death.-Samuel Dowland, ar old resident
of this vicinity, was found dead in his bed
on Friday morning last. Supposed to
have died on Tuesday night. He had shaw
ed and dressed himself in clean under
clothes and apparently laid down to die,
everything in his room being placed in
order. He lived by himself in Mr. j. Lees
house, on the ridge.
Graduated fellow townsman Geo.
r. Grason, returned few days ago from
the Monumental City, where he had been
pursuing course of Commercial studies,
with a handsome Diploma as rev ard for
his application. One great feature in these
Diplomas is, that all the Professors can
write their names so you can read them
without the aid of translator
Imprncements.-The Banking Company,
of Evans, Wood & Co., have purchased of
Mr.. Grason the burnt district, on which
the Maryland House stood, and are about
to erect a handsome building to contain
dwelling and banking house. This will
fill up the centre of our borough and give
the town a better appearance.

Fre.-At noon on last Saturday, while
Mr.. John Wroth with his men, was
from home repairing the roads, fire broke
out in his outbuildings. The neighbors
around, seeing the fire, fastened to the
spot and with great efforts succeeded in
extinguishing the flames, but not until they
had destroyed horse and cow stables and
sheds, and some very valuable farming
utensils. The loss of property is estima-
ted at So. 900, on which unfortunately there
was no insurance. A little boy in Mr..
Wroth's employ was accused of setting the
building on fire.
Easter Monday.-The old custom of
keeping this a holiday was observed by the
colored folks, and being attired in their
Sunday regimentals went to the stores and
shops, and there spent the day in eating
and drinking. We hear of no cut-heads or
broken limbs to record, which is custom
airy on such occasions.
Flshing.-Ths fishermen seem to be the
most successful business men at present.
Large numbers of the scaly tribes are
brought to shore daily.
Rec. Mr.. BiIIopp with his family has left
this neighborhood. He has preached to
the people of st. Stephens Church for
several years. He is an excellent preacher,
good pastor, and in every respect very
estimable gentleman. A warm attachment
existed between pastor and people.

that our farmers and truckers are not able

culture. Snow and hail fell on Wednesday.
