Eire On Friday about noon, tho bouse belonging to Mrs. Nhortcss, in Centra twp., about one mile from this borough, took lire, and was entirely burned down. Help arrived soon enough to savo pretty much all tho furniture and wearing apparel, etc. The lire is supposed to have been caused by a defect in the Hue, near the kitchen roof. Our Congressman. The AYashington cor respondent of tho JV. Sun, in a recent letter, makes some exceedingly damaging statements regarding tho Representative from this district, Hoti.(?) It. J. Haldeman. According to his statement, tho member, not satisfied with presenting himself in tho House disgracefully drunk, lias so far for gotten his manhood that ho has beaten bis wife, making such a disturbance in Wil lard's Hotel that the proprietor refused to allow him to remain on his premises. If theso stories are not true, Mr. Haldeman uwes it to himself, and his constituents, to liavo them contradicted J but as ho lias not done so, wo arc forced to believe that this district has been disgraced by tho actions of its representative. Tho importance- of selecting as candidates men of temperate habit:!, is, by this ciicumstance, brought for cibly homo to men of both parties. Tho question now is, will they profit by tho lesson ?" Terrible Conflagration nt Mifllintowu. We have received a dispatch saying that a terrible firo occurred in Milllin, on Satur day evening. It began about 8 o'clock and destroyed nearly fifty buildings, Tho Harrisburg fun department was tel egraphed for, anil responded as soon as tlio P. It. 11. company could furnish traus isirtation with live engines. At the time of w riting this, (Monday morning) wo liavo uo particulars as to where tho liro originated or who are the principal sufferers. Wo may get further news before wo go to press, Latkii. Tho tiro is supposed to have iM'gan in the basement of thu Crystal Pal ace store, near tho bridge.and made a clean sweep tip Hridgo street to Main street. Among the burned buildings was the Odd- Fellows' Hall, and the Demur tat and )Ug httr office. The property destroyed is va riously estimated at from $17.),000to IHHI : on wluen tlieie is considerable insu rance quite an amount being in the Perry County Mutual. ve niaxe mo following extracts from a report received from a correspondent, which unfortunately came to hand too late to allow us to insert the letter entire : The Humes were so violent that a straw stack on tho farm of Mr. Moist caught lire, although at a distance of about a half mile from tho fire. The lire is supposed to have originated in the. basement of the Crystal Palace building. The heaters are in the basement, and in the same room was stored turpentine, coal oil, etc., and it is thought that these oils ignited from the lire in tho stove, causing this terrible disaster. Tlio loss, as far as ascertained from pretty reliable resources, will foot up over 1100,000 consisting of forty buildings to gether with their stock, furniture, etc., and rendering homeless, for the present at least, forty-one families. The household goods, furniture, etc., is piled in stacks in the Court House yard, and in the street all mixed up together. The homelus persons are quartered in discriminately with their mora fortunate neighbors. And thu was closed the last day of 1870. One long to he remembered by the inhabitants of Milllin. The new year was ushered in by a sad watch meet ing, and tho " happy new year" sounded a mocking sentiment to t!w) unhappy but hopeful people of Mifflin. Hi-ix'iai- A gentleman in an Upper Township got tho nightmare ono night last -week, mid dreamed that ho was standing upon a rail road track, chained to a log which was fastened to tho rails. Ho heard tho train approaching, and ho made tho most des perate exertions to drag that log oil' in time to prevent a heart-rending disaster. 'Ho tugged, nnd pulled, and jerked, and " rastlcd-' with that log, apparently for an hour and a half, hut in vain. At last the engine dashed up, tho cow-catcher struck him nnd ho awoke. Ho was surprised to find himself lying on the lloor, with his wife standing over him, fondling him with a AVindsor chair, nnd wanting to know what he meant by pulling her out of tho bed by tho leg. Ho had been clinging to it w ith desperation, thinking it was a log nn error which was hardly more preposter ous than the idea that tho chair was a cow catcher. Hi wifo said sho would excuse him this time ; but he would either have to sign a pledge never to have any more athletic nightmares, or submit to a neper ation. A young lady stepped into ono of the streetcars tho other day, at. Harrisburg, and dropped her handkerchief upon a va cant seat, as much as to say, "taken," while sho advanced to tho other end of the car to deposit her fare. Mcantimo a nicely dressed young man jumped in and sat down on tho handkerchief, w ithout observing it. Tho young lady, after paying her fare, turned back, discovered to her chagrin her scat was occupied, and sat down opposite, ladies making room for her. Putt she did not desire to loso her handkerchief, so she looked intently toward tho place where she had left it, hesitating w hether to ask for it or not. Discovering the direction of her looks, all eyes on tho opposite side of tho car were soon bent on the young man. Finding himself tho object of so much attention, ho discovered to his horror something white on which ho sat, the end peeping out. Ho mistook its character. To cover it with his hand, and to tuck it nicely away, was the work of a few moments. N'ono in the car but tho young lady knew that tho " some thing white" was a handkerchief, and hes itating still more toask hiip,she lost it.-A. A New Weekly Paper.

The United States Court has decided that the holder of a bank check can not sue the bank for refusing payment in tho absence of proof that it was accepted by tho bank or charged against tho drawer. The relation of tho hanker and customer is simply that of debtor and creditor, and docs not partake of a fidu ciary character. There can bo no founda tion for action on tho part of the holder un less thero is a privity of contract between him and bank, and there can bo no such privity when tho bank owes no luty and is under no obligation to the holder. The holder takes tho check on the credit of tho drawer and tho banks not connected with the transaction.

The cold weather of last week w as well hnptoved by those of our citizens who have ice-houses, and their ice houses are now filled with a superior quality of ice. Tho nail factory at Duncannon, contrary to tho expectations of tho hands, starts again this week, with an addition of four new machines.

Hunters should remember that tho 'camo laws' prohibit tho killing of all kinds of game until the l.egining of another sea son. Those young men who were hunting rabbits yesterday should bear this in mind. Tho concert of vocal and instrumental music, Chi istmaH scenes, iVc. given by tho Methodist Sabbath school of Duncannon, on Monday and Tuesday evenings, was a decided success, and drew a crowded houso both evenings. The most astonishing Hair story wo have heard in a long time is tho story of a man in Spring township, who was thirty- six hours cutting his way out ol a slump, into which he fell, while hunting a fox. AV'ell, there is nothing liko telling a good ono while about it. Our Duncannon correspondent says : "On Wednesday evening last, as Daniel Lighty, was walling up a well, his little boy, aged live years, went to call him to supper, and losing his balance, fell down a distance of fifteen feet, landing on his father's shoul ders ; besides being stunned considerably, neither party received any injuries.
