said that the rumor grew out of similari-
ty of names and other proposed alliances.

At Whitehall on Sunday night q fire was
discovered among some freight cars stand
ing on the track north of the tunnel. The
residents in the vicinity succeeded in sub
DUNG it. Only one car was destroyed. 1t
was subsequently ascertaiued that the
whole number, about fifteen, had been
saturated with kerosene oil. About an hour
after dwelling in the vicinity was fired
and entirely destroyed. 1t is thought that
the object of the incendiaries was plumber,
from the fact that, during the consequent
excitement, the store of S. j. Loop, for
merly of this place, was burglarized and a
quantity of wines and liquors stolen.
$50 west and learn the news" says the
Springfield Republican of yesterday, and as
we read the same issue, we are compelled
to say $50 to Springfield to learn the
news 1t says that Rutland had mar
row escape from fire, Saturday "a taper
in the Catholic church falllng upon some
moss used for decoration during q cro'cded
service and communicating with tie altar,
but the fire was eXtinguished without a
panic and with slight damage" Inasmuch
as the Catholic church was closed on
Saturday, and as there was no "crowded
service" there, we do not think there could
haye been much of a 'panic." The grain
of truth in the news from Springfield is
that Rutland had a narrow escape from
fire, Saturday, and no panic but it was in
the chapel Of the convent of the Notrc
Dame of Vermont, not in the Catholic
church, and occurred just as the sisters aud
their pupils we're gathering for their after
noon deyotions, SO that there was not
'crowded audience" Try again.
