On Thursday afternoon fire broke out in a clearing on tbe land of Morris Heston, Esq., in Centre twp., and before it was extinguished burnt about 25 cords of wood for George Eckert, who bad cleared the land, and considerable fence for Mr. Heston, and Mr. A. B. Com p. The Are communicated to the clearing, from a burning stump which had been fired sev eral days previous. Crashed to Death. On Tuesday morn ing the mangled body of Andrew J. Mar tin, a brakoman in the employ of the Northern Central railroad company, was found about five miles south of York. lie was last seen alive at Hanover Junction. As his body lay in the centre of the track, it is generally supposed that he fell be tween the bumpers. Letters on his person indicated that he was from Marysville. His age was about twenty-three. 3)Isappeared. On the 4th of Juno, a man named Noah Baker, employed by C. A. Rippman, as finisher of upper leather, loft Newport, it is said, for Tyrone, and has not since beon heard from. He left there undor very mysterious circumstances, leaving his work unfinished, and an amount of money yet coming to him. He was a sober, ppright man, and about five feet six inches tall, with sandy hair. Any inform ation as to his whereabouts will be thank fully received by C. A. Rippman, Newport, Pa. Tlre at Liverpool. On Tuesday night one dwelling bouse belonging to S. M. Bhuler, one cabinet-maker shop and eight stables were destroyed by fire. Abraham Grubb, Wm. Wenner, Wm. Wallis, Jos. Bhuler, .8. M. Shuler, Geo. Singer, Jesse Cauffmau, and others are the losers. All agree that it must have been the work of an incendiary. The fire broke out about 8 o'clock. It was only by the most stren- uous exertions that tbe flames were extin guished before they extended to more val uable property. Most of the property was partially insured. , Fatal Accident. A correspondent from Blain sends the following : "On Saturday June 13. a voting man, by the name of Henry Gutsball, living near this place, and bis brother-in-law, James Johnson, of New Germantown, came to town in a buggy They unhitched, took the harness off the mare which they wore driving, and were in the hotel until about four o'clock in the afternoon, when they went to the stable to hitch up. As young Johnson was laying the lines on the animal, after he hod put on the harness, she kicked, and bit young Gutshall, who was standing some distance behind, in the pit of the stomach It knocked him about fourteen feet. They took him home after he bad revived, but on the following Monday evening, at about nine o'clock, he died. He suffered the most intense pain during that time. West vs. Winn. On Thursday last Mr. West, accompanied by the Sheriff of this county, went over to Licking Creek from MoVeytown, and took possession of the house built and occupied by John Winn, on land of Wheeler and West, and fired it burning the structure to the ground. It appears that notwithstanding the action of the Court lost winter, and the burning of his cabin afterwards, Winn put up another house and carried on an extensive business in manufacturing tar from pine knots loca ting hU pits in Juniata county, however. About three weeks since Mr. West went to see Winn, and secured his promise to leave in two days if WeBt would pay bis passage to Clearfield, which the latter agreed to do. But he persistently went back to his pits, and It became necessary to dis possess him, as above Btated. We have not beard of his leaving. Lewiitown Qa tette. Nuddeu Death. Tbe Gettysburg Star A Sentinel Bays : Andrew Low, Esq., of Fair field, met with a sudden death in that place on Monday afternoon of last week. He had called at the residence of John B. Paxton, Esq., and sat ou the porch for some time talking over school accounts, ' when they started for the public school house, whore the School Board was to meet. When they reached a point in front of Mr. Smith's residence, Mr. Low sud denly threw up his hands, exclaimed " Oh mv 1" and fell over doad. He was carried over to Mr. Samuel Smith's porch and Dr O. W. Scott called in. who found him be yond tbe reach of medical aid, his death being caused by apoplexy. Mr. Low was a much resDeoted citizen, and for a number of years filled the office of Justice of the Peace. He was about 01 year of age Stolen. On Sunday a weok a black horse, with a new falling-top buggy, were stolen from the premises of Mr. Levi T. Mehring, near Llttlestown. Tbe horse was of medium size, branded " C ' under the mane, hair off between the hoof and pastern on right hind leg. Two ladies' blue shawls and a sumnior horse-cover were in the buggy when taken. Mr. Mob ring offers a reward of f 30 for the recovery of the proporty. XAlmost a Fire. Just bofore dark on Saturday night, a smoke was seen issuing from the roof of the house of Dr. Wesloy Williamson, iu Liverpool. Instant search was made . for the cause, when . fire was found blazing up between the weather boards and plastering, and was extinguish ed with a few buckets of water. A little longer delay would have resulted in another serious fire. It is not known in what man ner the fire originated. 13rlcf Items. Something in particular PsAoRmTe- It ChUiLnAgR. The Rev. Mr. Shoup, will speak to the Pineville Union Sunday School in Little Germany, on Sunday morning June 28th. Improvements are the order of the day, in this town. Among other changes, is a new porch in front of the Perry House. Several communications from the upper end were received to late for iusertion this week. P-TliA Duncannon Record has made a re appearance, this time, however, as a patent Inside. Messrs. Vines & Shellor are the proprietors. few days ago Dr. Orris' horse got his foot fast in a country Dridge, in vv na uat, and fell over, buggy and all, down an em bankment. The doctor had his head cut. A vountr man named James Williams shot himself on Monday of last week, near Shippensburg, and died from his wounds on Thursday. It was a case of suicide, caused by money troubles. The SkinnensburD- News prowls about the new time table on the C. V. R. R., and the Oakville Enterprise is pleased with it. The railroad company have not roported what they are going to do about it. The girl who was burned by coal oil in Snyder County, at tbe residence of Capt. Meeker, the account of which appeared in last weeks Times, has since died from her injuries. The man roaming around with a large dog, who is supposed by some to be Bob Aker.is a man named bueauer. A tew days since he was seen on the farm of Mr. II. D. Long, near Thompsontown, where he Bet tbe woods on tire lu several places. The citizens of the countv who nrefor to be treated by Homcepathio remedies, can now be gratified.

See his advertisement in another column. i-C'On Friday a week, a fire broke out in the and before it could be stopped, it Durned 800 cords of wood and ton or fifteen cords of bark. It was only by great exertions that the flames were kept from extending to a large quantity oi bark belonging to other parties. The fire originated from a coal pit. bA few days since, a little son of Dr, Shatto, of this borough, met with a singu lar mishap. He climbed up to the roof of a stable being erected by Mr. C Koth, and put his head up between the lath, which were on ready tor tne sningies. Alter nutting his head through be turned around and losing bis hold, was left hanging by his chin and bock of his bead, lie was soon discovered and removed in time to save him from serious consequences.

The Duncannon Record says, "Mr. Eliza beth Lewis, has just returned from Phila delphia, where she bod been to consult an optician. She had been blind for about 8 years, but we are happy to state that the surgical operation, removing tne cause or blindness, was suocesslully performed, by Dr. V. V.

Communicated. Rknovo, Pa., June 18th, 1874. Mr. Editor: On Fridav, June 12th, quite a sad affair occurred at this place, which resulted in the aocidontal drown. inc of a young man and horse. On the above named day, Henry Brickel, a young man of 17 years of age, and at the time driver of Mr. retriken i-x press wag- on, attempted to drive into the river, (the river being quite high at the time,) either lor tbe purpose or watering bis horse or catching driftwood, of which plenty was fioatiug at the time and by some means the team got out too rar into tne stream, up setting tbe wagon and the young man be coming (it is supposed, entangled in the harness, both horse and man drowned, The horse and part of the wagon were rouud about 13 miles east the next day, and tne man was not recovered till Mon day 15th, about one mile from the place of acciaout. Another suspension of bauds at the P. & E. II. It, shops, at Renovo. took ulaee this week, and those remaining are fuarfnl lest they may be out flown to halt time. The through freight trailio on this road is heavy, but local tralllo is very light, on account of the- dullness of the times and the scarcity of money. Heavy shipments of lumber are everywhere awaiting the more activity of the market, as also is other freight along this road, such as coal, iron ore, etc. The season has been very wet and late here, on account of the heavy rains, still the indications are that we will have a good crop of grain and fruit. Great preparations are going on at the Halls of the different orders and secret societies of Renovo, for the proper celebration of the 4th of July. As also are those dealing out the "queer" behind the yellow blinds in different parts of tbe town, making great efforts to lay in a good supply of "rot-gut," "Local Op- ion, U. how teeble tnou ait. 1 lie iteuovo House has its full share of summer visi tors, who seom to enjoy the pure air and beautiful scenery of the " Allies."

Tbe dwelling bouses occupiod by John Wright, Cornelius McClellan, and the Os walt house, occupied by John Yenkley, were completely cleaned out the furniture being carried across the street. All the furniture and carpets were badly abused. There are different opinions in regard to tbe origin of the fire. Some attribute it to boys smoking on the hay-mow, aud others to an incendiary. Water was procured at the basin, by form ing a line and passing buckets, and it was only by the most heroio exertions on the part of the citizens of this town and Patter son that tbe dwelling houses of Mr. Wright, Mrs. Oswalt, and Mr. McClellan, were sav ed. Sparks were carried across Main street. and tbe roofs of the dwelling houses occu pied by John N. Howe aud Gen.
