SERIOUS CHARGE.-E. @. Shaw,
merchant, of Grantsville, was arrest
cd few days since Under the charge
Of attempting to burn the store of
J. s. Broadwater, Of same place. Re-
ports concerning the matter conflict,
but the most authentic indicates that
each was the sutton of a charming
young lady, and, the latter succeed
ing in winning her favor, tho former
was 30 far incersed as to resort to the
dangerous expedient Of burning
Broadwater out. Shaw belongs to a
highly respectable family, upon whom
and a large connection this calamity
falls heavily. He gave bail for ap-
pearance at Court in the sum of
$4,000. HIS former high character
disposes us to the hope that he may
be able to establish his innocence.

paved gutter sufficiently far under

necessity Of the outer fence erected
TO prevent accidents. The entrance
to our town, though steep, can be
made attractive; if trees were planted
along the walk and drive, the hill
might be robbed Of half its heavy
