A Novel Feature ut Lake George.

AT Meadow Point, ab Jut one mile north of
Hule,t's Landing aud opp site Sabbath Day
Point, Lake George, is to be found a novel
colony, or rather the beginning of what
promises to be one of the most unique, health
full and important colonies on tic lake or at
any other watering place. AT present the
three beautiful cottages and large picturesque
tent are occupied by lady artist and teacher
Of New York, and bevy of her young lady
pupils, with their parents and friends. The
tent referred to is 40 feet square, with
a studio 20 by 40 feet four rooms on. each
side ~ by 10 feet each, piazza at each
end 10 by 40 feet, made VI striped red, blue,
green and white cloth, rendered otherwise
picturesque by flags and sketches,
paintings art furniture and other material
useful and decorative. AT Black Mountain
Point, five miles south of tie poiut just de-
scrlbed, is perhaps t. he found the most
unique building on the lake. Not only in its
architectural effects aud the abs rlu:e har-
mony with its surrounding but in the interior
arrangements, notably in the dining room,
which extends from the ground floor to the
roof. THIS building is intended as a re ,ep.

That Girl Ineendiary.

From the West Randolph Herald.l
The mystery of the origin of the fire that
destroyed b. T. Lombard's buildings has
been completely solved. Some time since
they took two little Urls from ''home" in
Massachusetts. They gave them all the care
and training they would have given them
had they been their own children. They had
pleasant home and all the comforts and
Injuries of such u home. The youngest,
now seven years old, has developed loving
and very good disposition, and promises to
make most estimable young lady. The
Der, had an entirely different disposition.
She was quick tempered and they often had
to correct her. The morning of the fire she
had done something which they thought
she ought to be corrected for, and
Mr. Lombard gave her until noon
to think it over in, She was evidently an
CRY, for when she got her dishes done she
took Il match and went out to the barn with
her sister to play She told her sister to go
and hide and she would find her. AS soon
as she disappeared she scratched the match
on beam and set the hay on fire, then went
in search of her sister. The result is too
well known to need repeating. Some things
lately caused them to have suspicious that
she set it and on Saturday SHE confessed 1t To
Mrs. Lombard, and again on Sunday to Mr..
Lombard, giving the facts as stated above.
There was II hearing at the temporary resi-
dence of Mr.. Lombard, at p. PERKINS,, Mon
day, and she was bound over to await the &C
ton of the grand jury, as the crime is beyonl
the jurisdiction OF Justice, and was taken I,

Brilliant Meteoric showers Promised.

On the 9th, 10th and 18th of August, says
the Providence Journal, a display of celes-
tial fireworks may be looked for. The earth
then plunges through the domain OF the err
ratio member of the system known as the
August meteor zone. This zone is gigan-
tic ellipse or hoop, whose perihelion is with
in the earih's orbit, and whose aphelion
reaches beyond the orbit Of Neptune. The
meteors are distributed through every portion
of the ring, though somewhat unequally. The
meteors shoot from the constellation Per
seus which is for this reason called the radl-
ant point, and the mcteors are called Perse-
ides. Sometimes the showers are very bril-
liant almost rivalling the famous November
ones. AT ordinary times an observer may be
reasonably sure OF seeing several hundred on
the nights mentioned. These meteors
are distinguished from those belonging to
other meteor systems by their yellow color,
and they leave behind them trails of lumi-
nous vapor that often lasts several seconds.
Poetry and superstition have given to the
August metcors the name of the fiery tears
of st. Lawrence, because they occur on the
anniversary of the day made memorable by
the martyrdom of the famous saint. The
constellation Persels rises late in the even
ing in the northeast, and may be known by
a semicircle of stars forming the sword Of
the hero. Observers on the nights mention
ed will be sure to see moderate display o.
meteors. They may be rewarded for the
pains by the sight of golden shower OF I'M
usual abundance and beauty.
