Many improvements have been made in this village the past year. Prominent among them are the repairing and repainting of the Alger Institute, by NJ. Beers & Sons. This build ing is one of the grandest edifices in the town. Built upon an extended plan, with large and cOmmedious rooms, it presents fine opportuni- s;,n for flrsI IIvUSa. -
 used for boarding school. It then changed hands, and, for the past few years, has been used as a summer boarding house. It has now, as before stated, gone into the hands of Beers X Sons, men of great wealth, who have spared no expense in fitting it up for a first class hotel. It is to be entirely refurnished at a cost of several thousand dollars. D. w. Manvill, of Cornwall Bridge, has leased the entire premises. Mir. Manvill is the present representative of thIs town in the General As sembly, and thorough business man. The place will undoubtedly be prosperous under his management. Another great feature in favor of the Alger Institute becoming an ex- cellent resort for summer boarders IS tslocality While, at many places it IS necessary to drive an hour in the heat and dust to get to some lake or woods, here, five minutes walk will bring a person to beautiful pine grove, where there is ever delicious breeze, the fragrance of which can be appreciated most by those who live amidst the smoke and din of cities, and who seldom enjoy that greatest necessity for good health, pure air. The spicy breezes waited to us from the groves and hillsides, in- vigorate and strengthen the mind and body. We can boast of having as residents some of the oldest people in the state; one has pas sed nearly century under the drowning rocks of Colts Foot
 To behold this village in it's most picturesque beauty, one should pass along the road known as the Goshen and Sharon turnpike, which runs about mile at the north. The church and cluster of white houses that nestle in the valley below together with the rocks of Colts Foot that rise almost perpen- dicularly to the height of several hundred feet. form picture which can scarcely be surpassed even in Switzerland.
 A large barn is to be built on the grounds of the Institute as soon as the weather will permit. L. J. N.

 In the replevin suit of Haskell G. Smith vs. Nicholas Bowdan, judgment for $1 damages and the property replevined was rendered on behalf of the plaintiff.
 The venerable Truman Smith appeared in behalf of his brother Nathan R. Smith, of Roxbury, on Tuesday, in a case brought against the latter by William Cothren Esq, of Woodbury. The trial was an amusing one. For nearly two hours the patriarch of our bar argued the law points involved and belabored the unfortunate plaintiff with much of his an- cient vigor In opening the case Mir. Cothren remarked that he and his opponent used to be good friends. Referring to this, Mir. Smith replied that so were Judas Iscariot and the other disciples friends at one time. Quoting the old saw that 'the lawyer who manages his own case has a fool for his client" he seemed inclined in this matter to substitute "knave" for fool" The case stands, at present, on remonstranee by the plaintiff against the ac- ceptance of a report of the committee in favor of the defendant. MT. Smith maintained that the whole affair was persecution of his broth CT by Cothren, quoting remarks of Cothren on the trial and in a letter te the defendant to prove this. On the whole it was pretty bad day for Mir. Cothren, for man whom he had entered as recognized as bendsman, in another case, came into court and swore positively that he had never authorized anything of the kind, and the court ordered other bond to be given.
 The case of Samuel Atwood vs. Charles Hart ct 0L., is now on trial. The case of Linsley vs. Bright is the only other action to be tried this term, we hear.
 The grand jury found true bill against Thomas Hickey, for murder in the second de- gree for the Terryville homicide, but his trial was postponed till next term.

It was at first apparently lifeless; but after while, being exposed to the warmth of the shop, it became pretty lively, shewing g great animosity against it's captors, trying to bite and otherwise demonstrating it's dislike. Those familiar with the crawling creat ion have pronounced it a Centipede, one of the most poison of poisonous reptiles and to put stop to it's antics, it has been confined in bottle of alcohol.
 Some excitement prevailed for short time in town, last Thursday, caused by howl ing, presumably mad dog running across Gen. tor F., 1oo 'c..,- .hy Post-office Block, with | heels When down opposite Breens, an en- ployee in the livery stable rushed at it striking it dead as was supposed. with bush hook It | was thrown on the ice of the river, but after a few seconds, up jumps the dog and down the street he flies pursued this time by newspaper reporters, and members of the bar in addition to the other ''citizens on foot'' One man armed with double shotgun took sure aim at the brute's head, but his gun missed fire and the canine started southward at round scamper and has not been heard from since.
