ATTEMPTED JAIL BURNING. Quite
an excitement was raised in Woodstock,
Thursday of last week, by the discovery
of fire in the county Jail. No damage
was done further than to smoke up the
ceilings and walls, all of which had been
lately whitewashed. The fire was made
of straw taken from beds in one of the
cells, and was set by a young fellow from
Norwich, who is under arrest for burn
ing his fathers barn last summer. He
was handcuffed and placed in a cell, but
freed himself in short time by break
ing the irons He is now doubled ironed
and will probably do no more damage.
FIRE IN CHARLEsTowN.- Mon
day evening last all the buildings on the
old 3owker place, occupied by Benja-
man Bowker, and owned by Geo. and
Jas. Bowker, were destroyed by fire
together with all of the crops of the
season, one horse, and some nine or ten
cattle. Nothing saved but few arti-
cles of household furniture. We have
no particulars as to the origin of the fire.
Loss s4000-insurance S4500 The
buildings were located about midway be-
tween South Charlestown end Charles
town street, The light was distinctly
seen here, and it was feared by some that
our neighboring village was suffering
from a confagration = Garemoat' Ad-
Uocate.

The exhibition of the Young Mems Chris

The Board of Commissioners of Dover

perfected the assessment list, and fixed the

to be raised 5000.

having q survey of the town made, and
fixing the levels and building line of the va
rious streets, and making State and Loock-
erman streets conform with the grade imme-
diately, and the other streets as soon as
possible. This would certainly be great
improvement, as any one who has ever
walked the streets in Dover must know, and
If an ordinance was passed to make uni
form width of pavement, and In regard to
awnings, and other obstructions, with the
ones already enacted, Dover would be quite
pleasant place to take stroll in, instead Of
being as at present most disagreeable one.
The principal talk of the town is in re-
gard to the vacant Chief Justiceship, the
opinion that our fellow -townsman, Hon. Jo-
seph P. Comegys, will receive the appoint
ment, having gained ground. Mr.. Comegys
ia regarded here as undoubtedly the head of
the Kent county bar, and bis appointment to
the position of Chief Justice Of the State,
would undoubtedly be received with uni
versal satisfaction in this county, Several
others are mentioned in this connection, but
none very prominently, and it seems con-
ceded that if the Chief Justice comes from
the lower part of the State, that Mr.. Come
gys will receive the appointment.

BASE BALL.

The game between the amateur Quick
step Club, OF this city, and the Archers OF
Philadelphia, took place yesterday after
uoon at the new grounds, in the presence
of good sized audience.
At 315 the playing began, with Burrows
at the bat for the visitors, who went out
without accomplishing anything, and
O'Donnel and Little followed suit.
base hit, and made one rnn; there was no
playing of note during the inning.
The Archers were blanked on the second;
the home club made three runs, owing to
rather bad fielding on the part of the
Archers
The third and fourth innings were each
blanks for the Quicksteps, and the third
litto for the Archers, but during the fourth
rhev scored two runs; they were, however,
olanked again on the fifth, while the home
club managed to score two. During the
sixth inning the Archers scored two runs,
Kelly making home run on fly which
passed over the fence.
The game continued with increased inter-
est, and was highly appreciated by all.
During the entire game some hard batting
was done by the home club, which contri-
uuted much to their victory.
The following is the score by innings.

Christmas.


mamma, what is Christmas?" How can 1 saw?
will try to answer you "true as true"
1t Is just the lovely day,
That is stepped in color all the way through!
When miniature toy shop in stockings are found.
That are left in the chambers without sound:
And papa gives gifts with tender cheer;
And brother 'hurrahs for the top Of the year,;
And sister looks on with her wistful ewes
WIN soft, sweet smile at every surprise:
And Christmas means this
little child's bliss
And the love Of the dear Christ felt like a kiss.
And piled-up glory is hard to express;
And "What is Christmas?" is wonder for all.
1t Is when the earth puts on holiday dress,
MADE spotlessly fair with snowhakes that fall;
When hearts are lavish with treasures of love,
And the pale pure stars shine brighter above;
And the dancing freight seems to play
In the most mysterious haunting way;
And the house fairies wander from sweet to sweet
With an UNEMPLOYED kingdom laid at their feet;
And Christmas means this
A little child's bliss,
And the love OF the dear Christ felt like a kiss.
And still "What is Christmas?" Darling come
here.
1t is meant for the birthday. "true as true,''
OF a beautiful child that was born in Judea,
That his mother loved as love you;
That grew up to teach you how you should seek
To be in your spirit slowly and meek"
And onward higher and higher to go,
Till you changed to an angel, whittier than snow;
And offered freely (that all might take)
The gift of Himself for the aUhole acorld'S sake,
And Christmas means this:
A little child's bliss.
And the love of the dear Christ felt like kiss

Ye merry hearts that meet to laugh and dance the
hours away,
Ye gentle hearts that better love in sheltered homes
to pray,
Think the homes whose Christmas guests are only
want and care,
Think on the hearts too sad for mirth to sad per-
chance for prayer.
Oil sad and short the .wintry da vs. oh! sad and
long the night.
When In the heart there is no hope, and In the
house no light;
No fire, no foodi vet goodiy gifts, yet words of
Christmas cheer
Can make the grave seem farther of-can make the
heavens more near.
