dwelling house ownea and occupied by
Mr. Wm. Johnston, situated on the
corner of Ross and Clyde streets, was
burned tt, the ground. The fire was
caused by a defective stovepipe, and
owing to the dry weather of the past

There was no insurance on the building
at the time, it having expired eight or
ten daysprev ions.

He was repairing the side of the kiln,
when the entire structure suddenly gave

not been for the timely arrrival of his
son and a man who was wurking'close

have been suffocated. With the excep-
tion of a ten. bruises Mr. Burns mop-
ed none the worse for the accident. -

kins announcing the death of his bro-
ther-in-law Mr. Edward Green, who
left this village for the home of his
father in U.derich Township in May

was somewhat sudden it was not unex-
pected. His body was removed to this
village for interment on Tuesday last,

ever since, and has a large family settled
around him. About a year aur he had
a stroke of paralysis, which it was ex-
pected at the time would speedily erose
his death, but his sturdy constitution
.overcame it for the time. Since then,
however, he has been very feeble, and
part of the time a great sufferer until
Wednesday last, when he Rank penes -
fully to his eternal red. Mr Montgom-
ery was a truly geed man who, was great-
ly respected and honored by all who. I,

Messrs. Baker & Taylor threshed one

night as a man named Bradburn was
going home in a wagon with Wm. Duke

A. .•IDaNT.-Mr. Neil Campbell, who.
is the employ. of Messrs. Carr & Ensign,
threshers, while attempting to throw off
the large cylinder belt and the iron pul-
ley. The thumb was badly bruised, and
the the flesh torn off the back of the
hand. Though the wounds are' painful,
no bones are broken, and he expects to
he able to resume work again shortly.
Ban Fiara.-The atmosphere in this
locality is exceedingly smoky causing
the eyes to smart and producing an un-
pleasant sensation generally. The
smoke seems to come front the large!
bush fires which are raging in some
parts of Ashfield, and doing much dam-
e. Those who reside in the vicinity
o them, live in constant fear of being
burned out of house and home, and
many are obliged to fight the fiery fiend
day and night. The desire for rain
seenis to be uppermost in everybody's
mind. May it soon come.
FIRE. -Mr. Thos. Smith, (.1 1st con.
Huron, had the misfortune to totter
*overly by fire en the night of Tuesday
30th inst, his barn, stables. farming
implements, and entire crop of hay and
grain being totally consumed. The en -
gin ..f the fire is unknown but is suppos-
ed to be the work of an incendiary, as
there was no fire within a distance of
half a mile. The loss is said to be about
82.000. Tt was insured for x!100. •

Mr. James Torrance, of the 0th con.,
whose wheat crop promised, in the
spring, a yield about 10 bushels per acre,
will now probably exceed 30 bushels per

We understand that the Episcopal
ministers of Bayfield, have just ltegan
a series of revival services in Mr. Wat-
son's barn, on the 4th con. The build-

Hautes all afternoon. No great damage
was done, however.
Wan CAT. -A few days ago James
Hogarth and James McManus, while
proceeding to a spring near the lake for
a drink, came upon a wild cat. The
boys gave chase at once, but as they
had no other weapons but stones the

Caro is surrounded with' fire, but extra
precaution is being used and no danger
is apprehended. The track of the Caro
branch railroad between 1Vatrousvilleand
Vassar, was hurued, so that no trains
could run yesterday afternoon, and the
tt lo; raph wire ie entirely disabled. The
ground is like an ash bed, and unless
rain soon comes there will toe still more
perilous tines for Tuscola county to ex-
perience.
Forester, Mich., Sept. 7. -The fire in
the immediate vicinity 'of Forrester is
subsiding to -day. There was great de-
struction of property yesterday. At
Richmondville the greatest amount of
damage was done, and it was utterly int -
possible to save anything. The fire
came on with such rapidity that it swept
everything before it. The loss of life is
eeriuus. Abel Thornton, wife, son and
daughter took refuge in a well and per-
ished. A young man named John Mog-
hnn and a girl named Sharkey were
burned to death. John Lee, wife and
mother, and Min Winters, said to have
been lost, are alive. Some div.'s were
lost at Deckerville. The mail carrier on
the route from Farmers to Sandusky re -
parted having seen four dead bodies on
his route. The mail -carrier froin Bad
Axe to Marlette is lost. Bad Axe is in
ashes, only the court house and one
dwelling remain. Ver..na Mills is all
destroyed except the hetet and church.
The whole country from Sand Beach to
Forester is destroyed, except the villages
of White Rock and Forestville.
The remains' of a family of seven,
named Richmond were found dead ie a
well near. Charlestown, they having of
into the will for shelter and there suffo-
cated. The charred remains of Henry
Cole were also found at Charlestown,
and a family named Sunda, of Paris
Township,have been burned to death,
and an old lady was found dead. It is
thought that not less than thirty liven
have been lost, and the number 'may yet
rea:h fifty. The townahiils of Dels-
wara, Minden and Austin, in i4anilac
County, and then) of Bingham, Sherman
and Paris, in Huron County, are burned
over and deserted. The crops in these
townships were all harvested, and nearly
all are now lost.

A very axial ani agreeable ,sante of
base hall was played here on Thursday
of last week. between Kintail and Dun-

of the latter by several runs. Mr Law
ria deserves credit for the satisfactory
way he precided over the contest. A
very friendly feeling prevsdell the game
throughout. and it was a fine specimen of
how a match should be played. It wits
also well calculated to promote sociabili-

The Senate.
Tho Senate will always be defended by
those who hare seats 6 it, as well as by
those who have the giving of the seats.
That is quite natural. Sir Hector Ltnge-
vin says the Senate must be retained be-
cause it was stipulated for when the mar -
1 rage contract was made between the Pte-
vincs, and Confederation was accomp-
lished. This is the same as arguing that
because a man has a cow when he. mar-
ries he must feed it and fatten it till the
end of all things. The cow may go dry
and be an items of expense, but -because
it was a part of the man's earthly pia -
sessions, with which he endowed his wife
at the time of his marriage, he must not
dream .•f disposing of it and c•.nverting
the proceeds to some more profitable pur-
pose. The Senate is Canada's cow. It
once served a useful purpose. But it
has zone dry.-- and there should be -no
hesitation in taking it t t the butcher. -
