IS the messenger was at Kent about 10 a. m., and the train was @ long distance from Pittsfeld. But Englishmen's wit they say, comes afterwards. The g0v- ernment authorities will probably iuves- ~igate the matter as word was sent to Boston where resides the government agent for New England. This has kept the people somewhat stirred up during the week.
 The weather has been remarkably mild and pleasant. Charles W. Everett has been sending up coal by the two horse load for winter use indication of cooler weather by and by.
 The movements of the people here are slight. We miss, however, the going of any who have been with us. Miss Annie Crane, neice of Mrs Peek, has just return ed to Brooklyn, the home of her mother. She is a very estimable lady and her pres ence here for three or four months was enjoyed by all who knew her. She was accomplished iu many directions and we only regret that her stay could not have been longer.
 Mrs Virgil F. McNeil ana Mrs Edwin McNeil of New Haven and Miss Clara Bissell of CIaremOnt, Cal, have been re- cent guests of Mir and Mrs Charles Curtis.
