Officers of the State Agricultural
Sooiety at Harrisburg, whose means of
information are ample, are of the opin
ion that the late sudden change from
mild to cold weather will serously injure
the early fruit, peaches, &c. The warm
weather of two wciLs ago forced the
buds of these trees, ond the sudden
Rcvero changes it is feared has destroyed
the greater portion of them. There ate
very many large pcacL orchards in the
eastern part of the Sta'e, which, it is
feared have been so damaged by
the fnst ns to render it certain that
they will not betir half the uual crop.
The Venango Spectator of the
20th ult., says: ''The lumbermen of
Jeffersou, Clarion, Elk, Forept and
Wertm couDties who float their luaibcr
to the Pittsburgh market on the Al
legheny river and its tributaries, are
compelled to move on down the Ohio
with their rafts. The Pittsburgh lum
beryards are overcrowded with old stock
mid there are no buyers. It is certain
that the markets of the west arc also
very poor, and lumbermen are likely to
lese heavily oti their winter business
This is more to be regretted because
the depressiou in the iron, coal and oil
trade bad altcady prostrated business
throughout the northwestern part of
the State."
The Clearfiiid llipublican says
This is the name of the new township
erected out of parts of Hell, Fergu.-ou
and Pcnn township at the March term
and the Court ordered an election to be
held at the hotel occupied by Samuel
Iluilmao, in said towuship, on the 11th
day of May, 1875, tor the election of
the necessary township officers. The
new township started out with the nam
ol Hoyt, but was christened at the close
by Gallium it ' Greenwood," by which it
will be known uerealter.

THE COAL REGION.
OR EAT WOODS FIRES IN SCHUYLKILL
COUNTY.
Pottsvilie, Pi., May 10. To-day
near Hamburg. St. Michael's Lutheran
and Reformed Church was dedicated
A lurae coucourse of people came from
the surrounding country to attend the
dedication.. During the services a
broke out in a grove where a larg
number of horses and carriages were
tied to trees. The grouud being
thickly covered with leaves and brush
the fire spread with great rapidity. Re
fore the teams could be reached nine
horses perished iu the flumes, and five
more were burned so severely that it
was necessary to kill them to put them
out of agony end pain. Seventeen
vehicles were entirely destroyed, tl
teams being principally owued by far
mors. Mahauoy City is surrounded by
tires on the mountain, and a coal bleaker
was discovered to be on fire and saved.
1 he people arc alarmed, and Lanigau's
patch, where a number of iniueiV
houses are located, is id danger, and the
miners are fighting the flames. Up to
a lute hour no dispatches have been re
ceived from that locality, and it is not
known with what success the fire has
beeu opposed. At Shenandoah the fires
ure not so serious yet, though the
breakers are in danger, and it is re
ported that at tho illium Pcnn colliery
the fire will give them trouble. Ad
ditional watchmen have been placed on
duty. At Shenandoah last night a
strange man entered the house ofEii
Hoas in mistake. Hoas discharged
two shots at him, the last one taking
effect near the heart. The man is iu a
ciitical condition and cannot recover.
Bostou, Mass., May 13. Tho small
town of Newburg, Essex county, was
the scene of a tragedy early ihU morn
ing. William Russell, a widower, nged
SO years quarrelled with a younger
Inther in his father's houee, and upon
the interference of bis mother a woman
of GO years he turned upon her with
terrible ferocity, and almost severed
her head from ber body with a shoe
knife, killing ber instantly. He then
attacked the father, and would have
killed him but for the interference of
the neighbors, who secured the mur
derer after a struggle. The younger
brother and father were both badly
wounded, but will recover. As he bad
threatened to kill the family, it is sup
posed that he is icsane. lie is now in
jail at Newburg.
