—Timothy hay is worth S3O a ton
at llarrirhurg.
—The horse disease has made its
appearance in Blair couuty.
—THE HORSE DISEASE.— The
horse influenza or epizootic, as it is
technically called, has reached Lewis
town. All of Gen. Burns" homes are
atHioted with it, and one of them died
CD Tuesday, —/Vnocrnf.
—Potatoes in Lock Haven, sell at

—Friday lust a young tuan named
William Illack. was run over bv the
cars at Spruce Creek station, P. K. K.
and had ooth legs cut off. He died
shortly after from the effects thereof.
Before you ask a favor of auy man,
consider three things: First. Can
you not avoid it? Secoud. Would
you, if your places were tevereed, to
for your friend what vou ask him to
do for yourself? 't'hird. Can tLe
oue you apply to, grant it ? It is well
to think of this as it may change the
whole question.
—"We had a fierce storm on last
Thursday nigbt. At Miilheitn a uew
unfinished frame house was blown
down, and at Bellefonte a portion of
the roof of the Prysbyterian church
was blown off. Fences, trees, Ac.,
suffered more or less in various por
tions of the county.
—The barn of J. JS, Swoope, near
Alexandria, Huntingdon county, was
destroyed by fire on Monday night of
last week. About nineteen hundred
bushels of wheat, sixty tons oi hav and
some clover seed went with the barn.
—Do not forget that the Rynder
Organ is equal to any cold.
—The last radical legislature passed
an act adding one month to the school
term, which has raised the tax cousid
derabiy, and now some of our radicals
complain of the tax being high, which
is true, but they are only taking some
of their own medicene. The demo
crats have made no laws for a long
time, and all oar oppressive taxation,
springs from laws made by oar radi
cal masters. When these radicals are
made to take their own medicine, they
taste its bitterness and wonld gladly
spit it out. Serves them right, they
should swallow it not only without
complaint, but with pleasure. As
long as they can force unjust measures
upon democrats, they chuckle over it,
but when they are made to swallow
their own pills, then they complain.
Gentlemen rads, the increase of the
school tax is the work of last winter's
radical legislature, go to them and
complain. Jt is a little inconsistent
coming from men who claim "all the
intelligence" for their party; we do
not make objection to this additional
month, bat only wish to show bow
some of the rads may slap their own
faces before knowing it.
—The grain fields in this county
have a fine appearance, the- grain
looks far better now, than this sum
mer's crop did in May last.
—John Bellinger, indicted for the
murder of William Wingmte, at Ty
roue, on the 4th of July last, has been
convicted of murder in the second de
gree.
— FIUE. —The dwelling house of
Caleb Kephart, Buffalo Run, was to
tally destroyed by fire on Thursday
the 31st uIL The fire broke out
about 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
There being no one at home but Mrs.
Kepkart and ber daughter, they only
succeeded in saving the goods on the
lower floor. There was an insurance
of $2,000 on the house and furniture.
Mr. Kephait was in Bellefonte the
day of the fire, and when he ret urned,
found himself burned out of house and
hem e.— Jiejntblican.
— ROADS. —Potter twp. has many
roads, and great sums of money are
annualy spent upon them, yet many
of the most important ones are in a
bad condition. We think this is
mainly owing to the old fogy way of
hav'mgour roads kept in repair, by
letting people work out their taxes.
Under this system much time is put
in, but little work done. A better
plan would be to have the supervisors
hire a few men during the year to do
the work upon the roads, and pay
them cash for their labor and let tbe
road taxes be collected as other taxes
are, and not left to be worked out, as
now, when many put in full time at
half work, by which all the tax levied
is taken up, <\nd often will not reach,
with the roads left in bad order. A
few mcu hired and kept upon the
roads would soon acquire proficiency
in that kind of work, and our roads
would be kept in better repair, with
nearly one half what it now costs.
We now have a petition in the Re
porter office, U> be presented to tbe
next legislature, empowering the su
pervisors to do what we of speak above
We know it will work better aud
cheaper than the present system.
While a member of the legislature we
passed an act of this kiqd for Benner
township. Many of its citizens were
at first displeased with it, before they
saw how it operated, and believed it
some new fangled idea. But since it
has been tried we are informed Ben
ner township has better roads, at less
cost than ever before, and the taxpay
ers there will never allow it to be re
pealed.
We invitetfce citizens of Potter twp.
to call at onr office, and put their sig
natures to tbe petition. *
—THE MODEL BOOK STORE, of
James Welch & Co., opposite the
Bush house, Bellefonte, is ooe of the

of Jesse Stewart, at Pleasant Gap, was de
stroyed by fire, with nearly all its con
tents, on Sunday morning last. Tha
fire broke out between two and three o'-
clock, while they were in bed. It teems

$3,000 in the Lycoming company.
—LAEQK YIELD.— Mr. WM. \T. Beyer,
of Centre Hill, raised 62 bushels of Peer

ed too will yield well. Mr. Beyer tells us
he hat been trying salt upon bis potatoes
sowed on like plaster—fer some two years
with tbe best effect.

OCT,
Borrojr, November 10—1 A. M.—The
greatest fire ever known in New England
is now raging among the largo wholesale
stores in the very heart of the business por
tion of tbe city, and will not cease till it
I reaches the wharves.
There was hardly a breath cf wind stir
ring when the alarm was sounded—about
half-paat seven o'clocd, followed by a sec
ond, third and fourth in rapid succession,
but the first engine wa* hardly on the
ground when the fire broke from the fourth
of a large four-story granite (tore on
the corner of Sumner and Kingston streets,
occupied by Tabbetta, Baldwin & Davis,
wholesale dry goodi dealers. It had
caught in the engine-room, and the flames
spread with lightning rapidity up the large
elevator, and were first seen climbing un
derneath the wood-work of the roof. En
gines "were fairly at work before any other
store had caught. The buildings in the vi
cinity were all of granite, four scrips high
and each surmounted with amansgrd roof
none of them being over five years old.
The detached splinters flew readily as the
air was warmed bl the terrible beat, and
soon flames began licking the mansard
roof on the opposite side, Air above the
reach of streams directed upon It from all
quarters. Fire was constantly in the air,
and one building after another caught on
the roof and flames skipped lightly along
from one window till to another, so that in
less than thirty minutes every cheek was
blanched as it became evident that the
whole city in one direction was at the mer
cy of the flames, which were leaping gayly
from roof to roof and from one building to
another. The second building to suocumb
was directly opposite (Q thai in which the
fire first brofib opt, and whs occupied by
Mafin, Mullen A Kim#, Harding, Brothers
A Co., Bowen, Moors A Co., George Lied,
Carter a Co., and Conant Bros., all whole
sale dealers in dry and fancy goods. This
waa at the comer of Otis place. The
beat now became infernal. The streets ran
rivers of water, and every moment was
heard the sound of granite blocks explo
ding and falling in the street#, making
•Jiem impassable. Thh fl reified teni firlv
4it from one station to another, and many
engine* were kept noble at work, white
hydrant* wore uel by bend ho*e. The
Engineer could only bold hi* piece while e
*tream of water wa* kept playing upon him.
Block* of granite weighing ton* were *plit
a* it by powder, and hurled acro wide
street*, end plank* went flying through
the eir a* if they were feather*.
Boston, November It) 245 A. M.—At
thi* hour the tire i* atill raging ftirioutly.
The wind i* rising and blowing the flame*
flercely and ha* broke through in \\ ash
ington street at the establishment of Par
ker M t'ullar A Co., tho largest clothing
house in tho world, and is now gutting the
immense building. The Are ha* *wepl

building on the corner of Washington, and
i* now half way down llevonshire, Feder
al and Pearl streets, on the latter of which
wa* the seat of tho wholesale shoe trade-
Tho merchant* are unable to save any
thing and have flung open the door* and
are allowing the people to carry oflT their
stock. Hundred* of men, women and
boy* can be seen loaded with shoe*, cloth
ing, carpeu, etc , thrown in the street* from
burning building*. In Seuth and Liucoln
street* the building* are principally a
frame and are tilled with tenenta who are
making frantic efforts to save household
geods. The water front ia" burned clear
for over a quarter of a mile, swooping
away lumber yard*, sheds, warehouses,
vessel* and all other inflammable sub
stance*. Tho Hartford and Site railroad
depot was burned te tho ground moro than
an hour ago. There is considerable petro
leum and similar store* on and near Broad
street
The massive granite building* which
covered Winlhrop and Ohio squares, and
all the street* in that neighborhood. The
*cne is a fearful one, full of weird and
wild feature*, and the whole population
soemes to be on the street Terrible ttorie*
of loase* of life are in circulation, but noth
ing definite can be learned. It U repotted
that Chief Engineer Damsill, of theflre de
partment, has been killed by a falling
wall. Several newspaper reporters, inclu
ding two agent* of the American pre** as
sociation, narrowly escaped death. Im
mense amount* of goods stored in the new
post office building are now being removed
to a greater dUlance from the flame*
Slate street is piled high on the sidewalk*
with valuable goods
3:90 A. M. —The conflagration appear* to
have taken a fresh start, and the flame*
are rushing up Devonshire and Powell
street* toward* State with a velocity and
fierceness that surpasses description.'
Large qantities of powder are now being
brought to the scene, and the authorities
are blowing up building* near the unfin
ished post office The thunder of the ex
ploeiont add new terror, and with the wild
roar of the flames make up an indiscriba
able confuTion of sound* that overawe*
the mind and appalls the sense*.
4:40 A. M. —There is no abatement as yet
of the conflagration except where buildings
have been blown up. Thousands of per
sons are homeless. The open ground at
Fort Bill improvement is crowded with
goods and homeless people
The United States Marine and Port War
ren garrison are now on duty on Boston
Common guarding goods, which to large
*mmounts, have been placed there The
fire has crossed Washington street. The
Marlborough Hotel is now in flame* and
the Parker House is threatened. The
Catholic Pilet pulishing house was con
sumed about midnight. The Western
Union telegraph company are all ready for
removal. Phelps, Dalton A Co * well
known Dickinson type foundry, on Fed
eral street, was completely destroyed.
The lower part of the fire from Sumner to
Oliver streets, on Broad, is completely
cleared. State street is covered with good*
and the sidewalk* are crowded by the
homeless, poor, and the furniture they have
saved.
4:15 A. M.—The conflagration continue*
with fearful effects. Building after build
ing has been blown up with the only ap
parent effect of increasing the terrible vol
ume of flame
4 30 A. M. —All valuables are being
removed from tba State street banks
and insurance office*. The Western
Union telegraph company are remov
ing their more valuanle apparatuses.
< A. M. —The fire which commenced
at a quarter past seven o'clock last
night continues its devastation, and is
now working its way through the large
block between Devonshire and Con
gress streets, north of Water.
9 A. M. —Buildings are being blown
up on Lyndall and Congress streets.
The post office on the latter street will
probably go with the most of that
street. The marines from the navy
yard are on duty in the streets.
12:15 p.m. Reports are contradic
tory, but it is said the fire is now un
der control. At one o'clock prepara
tions were made to mine the merch
ant's exchange, occupied by the sub
treasury aud poet office, but happily
this was not necessary.
The extent of the territory consum
ed is about three quarters of a mile in
length and a half mile in width and
includes Pearl, Federal, Congress,
Purchase, ITigh, Sumner, Arch, Otis,
Winthrop and Devonshire streets, be
sides the smaller avenues.
The loss of life is reported to be 25
or more persons. Besides the fire de
partment of this city engines were
E resent from Springfield, Worcester,
,ynn, Lawrence, Lowell and Port
land, each city promptly responding
to the call for aia.
The amount of loss is variously es
timated, some as high as $250,000,000
6 o'clock A. ll.—' The report -if buildings
blown op Indicating that gunpowder was
being used to stop the fire was heard at
five minutes past 3 o'clock. Three dis
charges were made in a block on Devon
shire street, and these threw the buildings
partially down, but without apparent ben
efit, for the flames lumped at the gap at
most imtanlly. The building was close to
tbe fire, and unless blocks more distant are
speedily prostrated the effect will be noth
9"he train* were laid in Federal street
about two o'clock, and the street immedi
ately cleared for action. At 3:45 o'clock
this morning the destruction of buildings
in the path of the conflagration, by the ex
plosion of gunpowder, was begun in good
earnest. It is to be hopotj tbq city may be
saved by this ri.eait*. ' The firomea, though
exhausted by their arduous labors, are
still working with a will. At 4:05 o'clock
a most terrific explosion took place, which
undoubtedly did good service. At 4:30
o'clock buildings on Devousbire street
were blown to atoms.
LATKK.—The fire was got well undor
control about noon, and has not extended
since. The following aro the general
bondaries of the conflagration. The whole
length and both sides of Hummer street,
across Federal Snd heady doWh to Drake's
