,,prvALsA AND DEPARTURES

DEFECTIVE STovE-pIPE.-Our attention
Las be.n called to very defective stove
,,i,e in a lodging house on Upper Main
=. .,reet which is dangerous, and ought
,,ba adjusted properly. Otherwise
Arc ;s liable to break out in that quarter
any time, AMI in that case large
-monnt of property and perhaps human
Ifs would be sacrificed to the Incidence
a a,a stupidity of the owner of the house.
TLe nine which projects above the roof
has toppled over. leaving an opening not
nrsr six inches above the roof. We hope
uot TO be compelled 10 refer to this case
nr any similar case again. So many in
.srasts are involved, and the reasons for
anoraino against Are are so numerous
hat we will not insult public intelligence
by doing more than calling attention TO
existing facts.
SATURDAYS STccXs. --Owing to the
break in the telegraph wires on Saturday,
no stock report appeared in Sundays is
sns Of the REconD. We received Sutur-
davis report yesterday. but omit its in
sertion for reasons which will suggest
themselves to the minds OF our readers
Ok Sunday we had the first bright
sunny day for some time. Yesterday
was clear and pinching cold. Weather
sharps and the barometer differ about
the weather for the future. The for.
mer look for clear weather; the latter in
dcates storm.
REsuMED.-The preliminary examina-
ton into the charge of grand larceny,
prqierred against George Lambert, which
was commenced Saturday afternoon be-
fore Justice Van Hagen, was resumed
last evening, and was still pending when
our report closed.
LocAL.-Items which bring joy to the
local reporter are scarce articles in Phoebe
Just now. An era Of good feeling has
set in and those who love to sup on hor-
rors are left to mourn over the degen-
eracy Of the times, while MI others re-
joice.
MASON & WILCOX are the men who
never complain of hard times. They are
constantly driving their business their
business never drives them. They are
the champion bootmakers OF Phoebe, and
by their industry make times good with
them.

of the house of Z. A. Fargo L. Co., liquor
merchants, San Francisco has been in
town several days. Mr.. Field was &C.
quainted with Phoebe in its early days,

A FEW days of continuous dry weather
will soon enable pedestrians to get about
the streets without difficulty; but it will
be week before the roads leading into
Phoebe will become easy for passing We
hcles.
