Its citizens were startled on Sat- jurday morning last to hear that, during the iprevieus might, the steam mill property |and furniture factory of Wright Bros. was ‘burnt to the ground. The loss incurred hy {the destruction of the property, machinery, 'tools, and a large quantity of lumber, is lestimated at $10,000. No — insurance. | Every precaution was always taken against ‘fire, and «+n the Friday mentioned the building was thoronghly swept, aad besides. ithe only part in which a fire was that day, iviz., the engine room, was the last to be leonsumed. This shows that the fire was ‘not accidental, bat the work of some black hearted incendiary, whatever may have jbeen his object or motive. We deeply sympathize with these enterprising and re- perfect NE snectable young men, whose honorable conduct made them respected by all classes ‘abd creeds. The country will greatly feel this loss, and we feel as if jast retribution iwill yet overtake the midnigh® roffians who ‘caused this rain and trouble. —Com. ‘nbasatisiitiliiininadiiia On Good Friday night, the 7th inst., a harn, the property of James McLau-hlan, E-g., Souris, was discovered to be in flames, | Nothing coull be done to save it, and it | was totally consumed, together with a quan- tity of hay and straw.

Several i stances of wonderful longeviry are given, of which, perhaps, the most striki: g is recorded by the Chief Physician of the Gre-k army. He states that he was recently called to attend a priest who was bora in 1758, ordained in 1797, and who had served one parish, the Commune of St. Brazil, for 81 years. He had never before b-en Hl, and at the age of 120 cultivated his patch of ground with his own bands. On Tuesday evening Montreal was visited by a terrific hailstone and lightning storm, such as never were seen there before. Thousands of dollars’ worth of glass was destroyed, and numerous injuries were in- flicted upon man and beast, none however fatal.
