THE TENPERATURE OF THIS REGIoN.-In his
lecture last Thursday night, Maj. Jed Hotch-
kiss said that it was absurd to report, as some
of the papers have done, that the temperature
in this State at any time was "a degrees below
Zero They are, he said, story-tellers and should
be put in jail where such story tellers properly
belong. The story-tellers are the defective
Thermometers that indicate such intense de-
grees of cold, and the papers publish what the
thermometers indicate The Lexington Gazette
relies confidently upon the Thermometers at
Washington and Lee University and the Va
Military Institute. Those Institutions should
have good thermometers, and, we suppose, they
have. 1.-THE Thermometers at Staunton and
Lexington can be relied upon, it was colder by
many degrees at Lexington than at Staunton
both last and this winter. az

ACCIpERT AT GREEN sPRInGs.-0n
last Friday the little children of Mr.. 4.
G. Loving. who were at the residence
of their grandfather. Mr.. R. L. Niche,
at Green Springs, Louisa county, were
playing, and one of them, little girl
about five years of age, was burned so
bad by that she died. She had dressed
herself up in her mothers dress, and it
accidently caught fire. The accident
occurred about 10 o'clock Friday morn
ing and she lived until about 8 O'CLOCK
Friday night.
On last Monday night q week lor-
ed woman named Malinda Burruss,
employed as cook Ivy DIR. Wills, near
Green Springs, was badly burned and.
only lived about two hours. We have

CAPTURE OF HAROLD SCOTT.-On
last Sunday night. Harold Scott, who
fled four or five years ago from this
county to escape punishment for MAX
ing and circulating counterfeit money,
was brought to this place by a United
States Marshal, and turned over to Be
putty Marshal, VIM. O. Austin. who
took him Immediately to Abingdon,
where he is now confined in Jail. De-
putty MARSHAL Austin, by correspondence
with some parties in Indiana, found
that Scott was there, and sent the ne
cessary papers for his arrest to the U. S.
Marshal, who brought him here. It
will be remembered, that the report was
circulated. and believed, that Scott was
dead, and his wife, who resides in this
county, had been wearing mourning
for him for some time. But in this. as
in many similar cases, the dead has been
found to be alive, and we suppose Scott
will be made to pay the penalty Of his
crime:-Patriet-Heratd, 1QM, Marion,

ANOTHER SOLUTION.

DAYTON, VA, Jan. 18th, 1878.
Mr.. Editor Noticing in the last number of
your paper, Jan. 18th, the puzzle of the three
jealous husbands, "A. B. and Co. offer the
fo,lo9'ing solution:
Leg A. alla wife first 60 oyer; there being NO
husbands there, 4. leaves his wife and retHrps
with the boat; B. and wife cross over and de-
liver the boat to AS wife, who returns to her
husband on the first side; then G. and his wife
go oversize returning the boat to A. and his
wife, who Immediately cross and deliver the
boat to C. who returns and brings his wife
across, thus getting all over without exciting
the jealousy fanny of the husbands.
STUDENT OF SHENANDOAH SEMINARY.
The next above is not correct, as it allows a
wife in the absence of her husband to be in the
lrssenee Of the husband of another vile.
