Incendiary Fire at West Randolph.

There is great excitement at West Ran
doph over an incendiary fire which oc-
Cured there Saturday evening In addi-
ton to the following particulars, for which
we are indebted to the Burlington Free
Press, 1t is stated that after the arrest of
Allen, threats were made to lynch him,
and it was with difficulty that he was
kept out of the clutches of the angry pop
ulace. 1t appears that some time since,
John Allen, foreigner, entered the en-
pl0y of John Hawks, farmer, residing in
the east part of Randolph, and on settling
their accounts, few days ago, some diff
arbitration, but Immediately on the award
being made Allen struck Hawks in the
face with club, and chased him into an
out'buiding, accompanying the proceeding
with many threats of future vengeance.
Fearing further violence Hawks caused a
watch to be placed upon Allen. On Satur-
duy evening last the detective saw Allen
crawl out from underneath Hawkes. barn
and pursued him, but was soon recalled by
seeing flames burst out from the barn. De-
spite all efforts the house and all the out
buildings were totally destroyed, nine head
of cattle persisted in the flames, and total
loss of about $4,000 was entailed upon the
unfortunate owner. A reward of $500 was
offered for Aliens arrest, and on Sunday
morning he was captured on Royalton
hill. An examination was had Monday, al
Randolph, as the result of which Allen wal
bound up in the sum of $4,000 and in de-
fault was committed to Chelsea Jail.

A Destructive Rain Storm.

A damaging shower passed over the
southern part of Ludlow, and the northern
sections of Andover and Chester, on Mon
day afternoon, the Gath inst. The heaviest
fall Of rain was on Williams river; reports
from there being to the effect that it is not
remembered when that stream was higher,
than for short time on Monday afternoon.
The actual amount of damages from the
sudden, and almost unparalleled rise of the
water in Williams river and its tributaries,
has not, as yet, transpired.
The highways and Bird scs in the locality
named, suffered materially. The stream in
Ludlow, known as the "Keyes brook" ab-
sorbed the greater part of the water that
fell in that town.
This stream empties into Black river
something like a mile and quarter below
Ludlow village on the farm owned by Will
lard johnson. At this point the effects of
the freshet are marked and pecuniarly dis
astrols. Mr.. johnson is the owner of
beautiful maple grove which has been
the great resort for pic mic parties for
many years its romantic surroundings
and carpet like ground, made it especially
desirable, audit has been the scene Of many
an enjoyable party. To-day it presents
sad appearance its beauty has departed,
and the usually lazy stream that threaded
its way through the center of the grounds,
made sad havoc when its force was in
creased by this heavy fall of rain. 1t left
its original channel, flowing in several d.
rections and finally forming new channel
until it came in contact with the railroad
embankment, when it was forced back to
its original bed.
The trcstle of the railroad bridge, which
spans the brook at this point, was torn
from its fastenings and carried down
stream. A short distance below the bridge
the stream again left its banks and spread
out upon Mr.. Johnson's beautiful interval,
depositing boulders, gravel and debris gen
orally, in no stnted proportions.
The highways in the southern portion of
the town are represented as fearfully wash
Gu. DrluSes are eilHer sNcpt away vi eo
badly damaged that the abutments Will, in
many instances, have TO be wholly re-
built.
Recently planted ground, in some sec
tons, has been so badly washed that re-
planting will have to be resorted to. The
farm of Erastus Lane, on "South hill"
lay in the line of the shower, and field of
five acres sown to oats, the seed having
Just began to root, was SO thoroughly
washed that Mr.. i. thinks cUery oat lies

The shower was accompanied, or rather
preceded. by a plentiful supply of hail
stones and repeated claps of thunder.

The Missing" Boston Lawyer.

The whereabouts of Abraham Jackson,
the ''missing" Boston lawyer and alleged
defaulter was announced, yesterday, OK
clusiycly through TIE GLOBE. The Bos-
ton newspapers are unanimous in the de-
mand that he shall be arrested and speedily
put in the way of punishment for his al
legged frauds, but, at the present writing, it
would seem that Boston will content itself
with his exposure, and the creditors with
saving what they can ont Of the wreck of
bis so-called property. 1t is passing
strange that man Of Jacksons promi.
nence could remain openly in place like
Farhaven, and escape the observation of
all who were anxiously seeking him-but
so it is. We understand that, Yesterday,
the chief of the Boston police, in answer
to ansinquiry, replied that he was not look
ing for jackson, and had no desire to find
him. Such is Boston, and jackson can
remain safe in Vermont.
The developments in the sad deialcaion
case of the absconding lawyer, Abraham
jackson, grow worse and worse every day.
The total attachments on his property thus
far amount to the sum of S297,000. AS a
sequel to the distressing case, it is an
nounced that one of the unces mentioned
as bondsman for jackson, Mr.. Isaac c.
Jackson of Plymouth, Mass, aged 70, died
on Sunday. He had been suffering for
a. Al 81
the recent developments in the case re-
ferred to, so damaging to the honor and
good name of a member OF his family, and
disastrous financially to himself, un-
doubtedly were the immediate cause OF his
death.

Decoration Day at Memphis.

MEMPHIS, May 20.
The memorial ceremonies were the
gIandest ever witnessed in the south, de-
spite the threatening weather. At an early
hour the streets were filed with people,
bearing flowers whcrewith to deck the
graves Business was almost entirely sus-
pended, while from numerous buildings
national and confederate flags were hung
out, which, with the brilliant uniforms of
the state guards, gave the city holiday
appearance. The procession was over
mile in length, and passed through the
principal streets, which were crowded
with people bearing flowers. AS objects
Of special interest were seen, at the head
of the mounted ex-confederates, Gen. For
rest and the surviving members of his staff
while the Mexican veterans were led by
Gen. Gideon j. Pillow In one carriage
were two large flags, federal and confeder-
ate, made entirely of flowers, the latter
partly furled and the national flag flung to
the breeze. The number of federaists par
ticipating in the procession was about
hundred, representing nearly every state in
the Union, among whom were Lieut.. Col.
Geo. Gibson, United States army Col. j.
w. Jefferson, who served through the war IN
the eighth Wisconsin, or "Liye Eagle"
regiment Col. II. p. Tomlnson, formerly
adiutant general on the staffs of Gems.
Curtiss and Schofeld; Capt. II, d. Men
ken, formerly of Gen. Rosencrans staff;
Capt F. b. Edglngton, twelfth Iowa
Hon. Hosea Townsend, lieutenant second
Ohio Major James o. Pierce, assistant
inspector general on Gen. Washburn's
staff, one of the orators of the day Capt.
Nat. Law of Gen. Buffers staff; Capt.
Alfred Luther Of Gen. Bucklands staff
Major S. B. Harrison, United States vol
unteers, and many others. The ceremonies
at the cemetery were very impressive.
The orations were in keeping with the
spirit of the occasion. Everything passed
off well, and the general impression pre-
walls that nothing since the war has oc-
CURED to so completely break down the
barriers between the north and south, and
to unite our whole people. Only one acct
dent occurred to mar the celebration, and
this was caused by the horse of Gen. Col
ton Greene, chief marshal, falling upon
him on his return to the city this evening,
and breaking his leg just above the ankle.
