Huntington has more and worse
mosquitoes than can De found else,
where no man can be cheerful and
happy when in their company, and
1t IS torment on the half shell to be
bitten by more than seventeen at
once.

ACCIDENT on THE Il. R.-On last
Monday night an accident occurred
in Big Bend Tunnel. 1t is supposed
that the continued wet weather has
loOsened some of the rock in the Tun-
mel, and a small part caved in while 4
freight train was passing through
Some rock had fallen before the train
entered, and as the engine struck the
obstruction, the engine was thrown
back into the tender; at the same
time more rock fell down killing the
fireman, but some Of the beams fell
across the top of the tender and pre-
vented the engineer from further
harm. His arm was broken when he
fell ut the first c0ncuSSion
The cave in was not serious, the
train passing through As usual yester-
day morning, and arriving nearly on
time last evening. There will be no
/ further detention from it.

to try and find the men if any of
them foated. which must havetaken
good deal of time; it was fifteen
minutes past eleven o'clock when the
tow-boat arrived at Huntington and
reported the accident, so that there
could be very little time to be accoun-
ted for, supposing they had not stop
ped at Burlington. We give below

AS the report that we are very
wealthy has gone abroad among
our subscribers, and has made
them awful slow about paying up,
thinking doubtless that we don't
want the money, we hasten to say
that the report of our wealth is
false in every particular. II ocean
steamers were selling at a cent a
dozen, we couldn't make the first
payment on a canoe. The light
ming Of poverty has struck us
square, and had it not been for an
armful of marsh hay our boys man.
aged to steal from d blind mule,
our large and interesting family
would be without a mouthful to
eat at this moment. Is it not a
sad picture, and can you delin-
quent subscribers look upon it with
out feeling the greenbacks rust Q
with indignation in your pocket
books? We do not like to dun
you, but we must if you fail to
take the hint.

The New steamer.

We are pleased to announce to
our readers this week that the
Common Council has decided ia
purchase q steam FIRE engine, to be
placed on the north side of the
river, at cost, including hose and
cart, Of $3.50
This we consider wise, and III
the end an economical move. The
fires during the present season
have proved beyond a doubt that
one engine is hardly sufficient ia
serve the wants of this city. TIC
be sure, old Sahgonahkato has
served the city well, and no one
could find any fault with the work
she is capable Of doing; but our
citizens have seen the time that
two engines could be employed al
o great advantage, and have been
the saving Of much property. II
is not impossible that such an oc-
curence may again take place, but
we hope not. And even should
our city never again be visited by
the fire fiend, our people win have
the satisfaction Of knowing that
they possess the necessary equip.
ments to subdue an ordinary Are,
and even q pretty good sized one
in a short time.
With the two engines and two
good FIRE companies, our city may
be said to be pretty well secured
against any serious damage from
fire, and we trust that In the futur,
our citizens may rcst more cas-,

ANOTHER FIRE.-About mid
night Sunday, Fred Belon, who re-
sides on Trowbridge street, discov-
cred that his residence was on fire,
and with the help of the neighbors
and party of excursionists who
were returning from Long Lake,
he succeeded iii saving the greater
portion of his furniture. There
was no alarm given, and consc-
quently but very few knew any
thing of the occurrence till next
day. Loss about $500; insur-
ance $1,000. Supposed to he the
