from the West indies, reported that one
night while passing along the coast of

about fifty yards apart, and rose to a
height of 500 feet, when they reached
toward each other, but did not meet.
They burned with steady dull red

at the arching PORTIONS emitted tre-

A Scared Party.

On Thursday week, during the prev
Chambersburg, party of colored men
were engaged in playing cards, when
the lightning suddenly came down the
chimney, covering man and his wife,
who were lying on bed in an upper
room, with bricks and mortar. The
fluid then entered the lower room, tear
ing the table at which the players were
engaged into a thousand pieces, and
thoroughly frightning the darkies. Not

was SO great as to blow out the windows
and damage the house considerably,
none of the occupants were seriously
injured.

THE SECRETARY of the Treasury is
rather premature in his announcement
of the large amount of fractional cur
rency that has been lost. He takes it
for granted that the fourteen millions
not yet presented for redemption has
been destroyed. He will find that much
of it is safe, and will yet "come home"
Many persons who have small sums of
it keep it till they need fractional part
of dollar to send by mail and in that
way sum that will aggregate large

be sent in for redemption.

says: "We have seen evidences of a

Hancock, in the command of the Fed
eral forces, overthrew the Confederate
forces. We hope this will be discon-
tinued. Our people have mo hankering
for crow, however it may be dished."
1t is little rough to have Hancock's
military record given as reason why
he should be voted for by men who
fought in the rebel army.
