To WHOM IT MAT OONCERR.—I under•
stand that Some of the meddlesome gos.
sipers are once more on the• war path—
a pest that infests our village every now
and then and a sect who try to meddle
continuously with other people's basi-
nese. Since I got a good place with Dr.
Kalbfleisoh I hear these meddlers say all
kiwis of mean things about me and my
children, Baying my family is starving.
I have the opportunity to see my obildren
whenever I wish and they are old enough
to remain alone. If I would stay abhome
these pesky wobblers of the tongue would
be the first to open their jaws, find fault
and say, "Why does that woman not go
oat to work and nob let herself and family
starve." Ye goseipers leave a hard work-
ing woman alone as God knows it has not
been a aloft bed of flowers for me to bring
up my family and to support them.

FIRE.—One morning last week the fac-
tory of G. Waiter Green, of Peterboro',
brother to Robb. Green, aheese•maker, of
this place, was destroyed by fire. The
Peterboro' paper in speaking of this 4a
story burnout says :—"Mr. Green bad a
rather serious experience. He was early
on the scene and wished to at least save
the books which were in the safe, near
the door of the office ; and, though the
plane was black witb smoke he made a
resolute attempt to open the safe. He
crawled, as closely to the floor as pee-
eible, to ties safe, but wee unable to open
it ; instead of eating the books he was
fortunate in saving his life. He was
partially asphyxiated by the dense and
acrid smoke and if one of the employees,
Thos. Bradley, had not bravely gone to
the rescue, and seized him by the feet,
destrnation of life would certainly have
been added to the destruction of property.
Mr, Green's lose is pretty heavy. He
places it at between $4,300 and $5,000, in
stook, goods manufactured and machin.
ery. There was about $1,800 worth of
manufactured articles ready for delivery
and shipment. The staff had been kept
at work during the Winter in aubioipa•
tion of the Spring demand, upon stook,
This manufactured stook consisted of
pumps, washing machines, folding sinks,
cheese vats, lumbermen's supplies, such
as pike poles, peevies, cant books,
handles, etc., cistern tanks, turned goods,
inemen's supplies, snob as insulator
b
looks, oross mean for telephone and other
oles, eto." This ie Mr. Green's second
ose by fire sines ha moved to Peterboro'
ei years ago. He will resume work at
1008.
