On Friday last, at about o'clock p. NJ,
the barn of Horace Goodhue was discovered
to be on fire, and was totally destroyed, to-
gether with a small horse barn and COW barn.
The fire took in the horse stable but the
cause is unknown. As there had been no one
at the barn with light, it is supposed by
some to be incendiary. Mr.. Goodhue
loses one horse, one hog and two or three
sheep, with about thirty tons of hay, three
or four tons of straw and about 100 bushels
of oats. 1t was with much difficulty that
any of the sheep were saved, as they seemed
determined to run into the fire. and were on
ly kept out by taking them one at time and
throwing them over two fences. Fifty sheep,
five COWS, five head of young cattle and three
colts were saved, and as Mr.. Goodhue has
nothing to feed them, they will be sold at
public auction at the residence of james Mil

been built but few years and cost about
$1,000. Insurance on tho whole about $1,000.
