Fire. About half past one o'clock, on Sat
urday morning, onr citizen were aroused from
their slumbers by the cry of Ore. The sky was
brilliantly Illuminated by the flames from the
burning buildings, and a few squares off It ap
peared as thottgh the principal business part of
the town was destined to fall a prey to the fiery
element. The Are broke out lu tho stable of
Messrs. Drolsdnch A firo., on Centre alley, be
tween Second nnd third streets, baclt of Market
Square, and was undoubtedly the work of an In
cendiary, who evidently fct Are to the hay, as
Are was seen In the upper part of the bnlldlng,
when several persons rushed In nnd rescued the
horse nnd a spring wagon from destruction. It
was frame, and burned rapidly. Before, the flro
men were nblo to reach the spot, it had spread
to the stable on Mrs. Pleasants' property, across
the alley, occupied by Dr. Cummlngs, nnd nlro
to the stables of Mr. James Boyd and Henry
Hans, opposite, which were of frame, nnd lu a
few minutes they were entirely enveloped In
flames. Tho heat was Intense, and for a tlmo
threatened many other buildings In tho vicinity.
The stnblo of H. B. Masser opposite that of Mr.
Boyd was reached and one half the roof and one
side nearest tho fire, was entirely destroyed. The
warehouse of J. W. Frlllng was In Imminent
danger, and was saved through the exertions of
tho citizens with buckets and a small force
pump until the firemen were able to reach it w ith
hose from their steamer. Tbo firemen did effi
cient service. Being promptly on tho ground
and as soon ns was possible, they threw two
streams of water from their engine, nnd prevent
ed the fuitbcr progress of the Ore. Their fctcam
cr never did better. She threw two steady
streams for nearly one hour aud n-half, without
Interruption, from Miller's well, on Market
Square, in which the water only fell some six
Inches. The stable of Mr. Drlesbach contained
a lot of hay and feed, one car load of salt nnd
other articles in the grocery lino, which hnd only
been put lu a few weeks ago. The stable of Mr.
Boyd, Mr. Haas, and Mr. Masser were empty.
The stable of Dr. Cummlngs contained conside
rable hay and horse feed which was destroyed.
The horses were nil rescued from the burning
buildings. Messrs. Drcl.-baeh's loss will proba
bly reach $1,000, partlv Insured. Mr. Boyd's
loss will be ji bout (900, Insured. Mr. Hans' loss
is about 7U0, $300 Insurance. Dr. Cummlngs'
loss will be several liuudred dollars, and Mrs.
Pleasants about f400. Mr. Musscr's about f'JOO.
It was fortunate that there was no wind at the
time, otherwise It is quite piobnblu t hat the prin
ciple square In the town would havo been de
stroyed. The firemen deserve gieat credit for
their eneriry and promptness on this occasion,
and for their exertions In subduing the flames.
We also noticed a number of citizens active lu
currying water, and aiding lu checking the pro
gress of the lire.
Not Dkao. Considerable excitement was cre
ated on Tuesday last, throui;h the circulation of
a report that n man named Richard Cum, in the
employ ot Oscas Kasr, about three miles from
town,had committed suicide. Mr. Kusc came to
town much excited, nnd repaired to Esquire Pur
ser's ofllce, and gave the statement that the man
was found in his barn dead, and desired that tin
Inquest be held over the hotly. A earriuge was
procured from A. J. Stroll, liveryman, who nc
compiinled the party consisting 6f Justice Pur
se!, Constable W. Bright, Constable Win. Pur
sel, II. F. Mann, und B. lleekert, (undertaker.)
who proceeded to the place where the horrihlo
suicide was reported lo have been committed.
Upon arriving ut tho designated place, to their
great surprise they found the man not dead, but
alive. The man having been 111 for some days,
procured medicine the day beforo, aud not wish
ing to disturb the family during tho night, went
to the stable where he fell asleep, and was dis
covered lu the morning by n girl in the employ of
Mr. Kase, who supposed him to be -.(!, and so
reported. The jury found the man awake but
considerably weakened through the effects of the
medicine, so much so that he was unable to rise.
Considerable merriment was had after finding
the miiH in the Innd of the living. Mr. Cam no
doubt congratulated himself upon his escape of
so If-aiy u Jury setting upon his body, and an un
dertaker ready to send him into another warld
with a wooden coat. The foreman who Is a
man of weight, was much elated at Mr. Cam's
narrow escape, prepared a sentiment which wns
washed down gusMly, und tho party departed
from I lie scene, without pay for their services,
concluding that us they were ni t privileged to
set upon the dead man as jurors, they hud not
earned any fee, and resH!ctfully declined paj.
Orn Market. The propriety of dividing the
market bclweeu the. East nnd West wards, is be
iug discussed of late. The purpose of the move
ment is the accommodation of the public in both
wards. It was the nrluinal design of the pro
jectors of the Market Ordinance, Unit the mar
ket wagons should extend from Secoud street to
Fifth street, so as to equally divide the market
ing between the two wards. We hope that the
oriu'iual project will he fully carried out, to
make it a still greater success, and more of a be
nelit to our citizens generu'.ly. The gentlemen
who first moved lu the matter of a curb stone
market before the Council, deserve great credit,
and when the original design Is once fully car
ried out, it will be seen that their purpose was
good, us It will tend to prevent all petty jealou
sies that may rise from the present arrangement
of our market. Our market thus far has been a
grand success. It baa proved beuetlclal to the
producer us well as the purchaser. It is also
just aud right that the business men iu each
ward should ba equally benctllled through the
market, and tho proposed mode, of dividing it is
the only way its benefits to all parties cau be
reached.
I.vconitencv. Oui neighbor of the Omtlti

fires in the vic;nrty of Mr. Raudeubush't proper

Marrrt Coanob. The following resolution
was offered In Council Inst week, but not acted
npon, for the purpose of ascertaining the opinion
of the citizens nnd farmers upon it i
"Resolved, That the Market Clerk be directed
hereafter lo divide tho market wagons as nearly
equal as no can (hnvlng a variety of articles In
Vlow) between tho two wards of this borough,
and to assign places for those. Wagons that he
gives to tho West Ward, along the curb of tho
pavement on the south side of Market Square
and he be further directed to Impose on the own
er of oach wngon a market tax of ton cents a
week, collectable every Snturday, ho kecplug n
bbok for tho purpose and that the said market
clcrlt shall receive said tax lu lieu of all his wa
ges i the tux to bo paid by all to whom pluces
aro assigned as regular attendants each week
whether they attend every market day or not."
As to lmposelng a tax of ten cents per week
npon those nttending market, wo arc inclined to
believe, will have a damaging efluct.Ei.
Fisiiino with Nets. As there seems to bo
considerable misunderstanding In regard to the
law regulating the "uioshcs" or spaces In nets,
we copy the following paragraph (section 25) of
"An act to amend and consolidate the scvoral
acts relating to game ami to game fish," puBsed
at the Inst session of the Legislature, and ap
proved by Governor Hurl inn ft May 1, 1S73 :
"In any of 'Ve inland waters of this Slate, In
habited by speckled trout or black buss, nnd In
which the Ashing with net and the like di Alecs
is not nlloL'i llier prohibited by this act, or sonic
other acts In force In this Commonwealth, It slnill
not he lawful to catch or kill flsli by means of
any net or device in the nature thereof, the mesh
es or open spaces in which shall be lorn than thrre
i'mc7c, under a penalty of ?'J,1 1 I'roiMeil, That
not hint herein shall authorize the rutcliimr of
speckled trout by means of any device save only
by hook aud line, except for propagation and to
stock other Waters."
The Fair at Si-nbuhv. The premium list of
tho Union Park Agricultural Society's Fair, to
bo held at Sunbury, au the 7th, Slh und Uth of
Octobor next, will bo published next week.
We would advise the farmers nnd olhers of Nor
thumberland nnd adjoining counties, to prepare
their best products and stock to attend this fair.
The premiums will be liberal, and as it will not
be strictly n county fair, our friends In neighbor
ing counties have n chance to compete with the
farmers of onr county. There Is no doubt tho
fair will be the largest ever held in central Penn
sylvania. nnd will atfurd a flue opportunity for far
mers nnd mechanics of neighboring counties, to
bring forward their products, mid mechanical in
ventions to compare and compcto with each ot her.
' Du. C. E. ITp Dp. Graff moved to Hurrisbiirg,
this week, where he will hang out his shingle as ti
surgeon. He will operate on nil eye diseases In
which branch of surgery he has gained a wide re
putation. We understand that ho intends to
open an Eye and Ear Infirmary, and will devots
bis principal time to those diseases.
Good. Our neighbor of the ZMiiy Is luxuriat
ing on mammoth water melons of late. He is
not very modest In throning out a hint to the
dealers that he is fond of them. We hoje they
will not have an Injurious effect upon his over
worked system.
Who Can Beat It 1 The toinatoc noticed In
our issue of last week, brought us one of still
larger size. Ou Wednesday last a bot was de
livered to us labeled "A Republican Tomutoe,"
and upon opening It we found a tomatne weigh
ing two and u-lialf pounds. The note accompa
nying it stated that it had been raised in the gar
deu of Mrs. Peter Borduer, of Georgetown,
Lower Maliunoy township. As that lov.Vship is
prolillc in the production of Ilepuhlicnu majori
ties, wo believe that she may safely challenge the
county In regard to th production of Rcrtulllcau
tomatoes. If any can beat the last we should
like to hear from them.
The Public Schools will open on Monday next
in this place. Ths directors have been very elll
cicnt in repairing the buildings, and repainting
them. We aro glad to notice thut the directors
take an Interest In tho schools, und display a de

schools are regularly graded, and from what we
carf learn very competent teachers huve been
cmpriyid'for tbo coming term.

And we sco it the same childhood, without the
