The term of the school clos /
cd with festival to which the parents and
other friends were invited. Ice cream c
and other delicacies were served, making !
in all, season Of uncommon interest.
A bold robbery was recently committed !
at the house of Mr.. Edwin Fuller of this {
village. He cannot tell exactly when, but t
sometime between July LIST and July 10th, ]
a one thousand dollar government bond t
was taken from its place of supposed safe {
keeping. No trace of the thief has been
obtained. 1t seems quite probable that it
was a person who had some previous
knowledge of the fact that Mr.. Fuller had {
such bond. One fact appers little
strange; fifty dollar bond was in the
same envelope, which was left undsturb-
ed. Mr.. Fuller can lily afford TO endure
such loss, and he will share in the SYM
pathies of the citizens.
The hay crop on several farms in the
west part of the town has been nearly des-
troyed by grasshoppers. Some farmers
get but three or four tons where they have
formerly cut fifteen Or twenty tons. The
hoppers are also running the oats and pota-
toes, by stripping off the leaves, so that
nothing is left but the naked stalk. The
grass in the pastures is so consumed that
the farmers are obliged to give their cat
tie extra feed twice day.
r. B. Porter, who was sentenced at the
June term of the court to pay a fine Of
twenty dollars for larceny, and TO stand
committed until it was paid, has recently
made arrangements for the settlement Of
the same, and been permitted to walk out
of the Jail room.
Jailer Dickinson now says there are no
occupants of Orange County Jail, lie pro-
poses to rent the jail and to advertise for
II tenant.
The fall term Of Chelsea Academy will

Henry Dunbar of this town, stands at

DR.. S. N, Goss and DR.. Frost removed
the left eye of Mrs. S. b. Hackett of North
Tunbridge on Tuesday of last week. A
tumor had grown under the eye which
was removed by DR.. Goss several months
ago. 1t having reappeared, itlwas decided
/ that the only remedy was to remove the
= entire eye, which was, safely done, the
= patient being put under the influence Of
: ether during the operation.
