DOTE 9 Song Island Stems. ERNEST CHERON of New York, while gunning for ducks in a bost near Bay Shore, L. last Tuesday, was killed by the acciden tal discharge of his gun. Tas old grist-mill of Messrs. Lace Jagger, Riverhead, was consumed by: fire on Wednesday of last week.

Insured for 500. TUESDAY night burglars entered the Laurel Hill school house, and carried off everything of value they could lay their hands on, including the books in the large library, an unabridged dictionary and personal property belonging to the teachers. The thieves must have been very deliberate in their operations asthey lighted seven kerosene lamps and left the same burning on their departure. Wagon tracks in the vicinity showed that they came prepared to carry off any amount of plunder they might secure. THE assignment of revenue cutters to cruising stations for the winter's service in this section is as follows: The Samuel Dexter 18 to cruise from Holmes' Hole through Long Island Sound to Whitestone, going both inside and outside of Block Island; and the U.

S. Grant from Block Island along the south side of Long Island to the Delaware Breakwater- continuing vat until April 1. PASSENGERS On the up Patchogue express Friday evening last, witnessed a beautiful sight, woods neat Bethpage- Junction, north of the track, were for a long stretch a sheet of flames, and illuminated the cars as the train ran along not over five rods from the burning woods. The origin of the fire is unknown. It, destroyed considerable property.

-Babylon Signal. We regret to learn that Mr. Lott VanDewater, of the Hempstead Sentinel, has suffered considerably from tooth extraction. It seems that an artery was disturbed by the root of a molar, and a bleeding for some 24 hours followed. The hemorrhage has been checked, but Mr.

Van De Water is much weakened by the loss of blood. HEMPSTEAD Commissioners of city works of Brooklyn bave recommended the removal of the island in the upper part of the Hempstead Reservoir, which lies near this village. It will involve the excavation of about 500,000,000 cubic yards of earth and will give employment to a large number of men. It 18 reported that both the Mayor and Common Council are in favor of the work and believe it necessary, The much derided reservoir has been found to be absolutely essential to supply Brooklyn with water and the draft from it is about 20,000,000 of gallons a -Hempstead Inquirer. A commuter of this village.

has presented Mr. Hermance, depot agent of the Long Island Railroad, and Conductor Holmes each with an elegant silver mounted lantern upon the globes of which are cut the initials of those gentlemen together with an eagle and bunches of flowers. They are well-deserved tokens of merit. -Hempstead Inquirer. THE weather has been unusually warm for December.

Turtles were out sunning themselves last Sunday, mosquitoes are still alive and active, bumble-bees are humming, and the farmers are plowing and harrowing just as if it was September. -8. S. Observer. THE friends of F.

C. Overbaugh of Amityvile gave bim their annual donation visit on Thursday evening, December 18, at the residence of W. H. Hall. A good time was enjoyed.

TAr improvements at Maple Grove Cemetery during the summer just past 13 quite remarkable. Over 600 families have their dead placed bere. The exact number is 665. During the Fall the Association secured control of land adjoining the Long Island Railroad, and upon it erected one of the finest railroad depots and opened western entrance, whereby visitors enter the cemetery direct from the railroad cars. The time from the Ferry to the cemetery is 20 minutes by the train.

FATHER -From the Jamaica Democrat we learn that James J. Brenton, the editor, was born in 1806, and entered a printing office to learn the trade in 1817. He has been continually in the field until the present time, except in his boyhood, when on account of uncertain health he spent one summer among Cape Cod fishermen, returning to work as soon as his health was established, He worked in several offices in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Vermont. At a later date he came to New York and was employed on the Jeffersonian, a paper now scarcely remembered by the oldest inhabitant. In 1835 established the Long Island Democrat, and has edited it forty-four years, without an interruption, which he thinks is a long continued service, in one place, equalled by very few editors in this country.

On Long Island a few papers were established at an earlier date, but most of them have changed proprietors several times, and twelve or fifteen years is the longest time that any one person has filled the edi torial chair. We hope that many years may yet be adced to Father Brenton's life, although we notice that the infirmities of age are creeping o'er him. -S. 8. Observer.

Ox the last trip of the W. W. Coit to this place, Charles Irving, fireman, lost his life instantaneously in the following shocking manner: The boat was just making a landing at Orient at about 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon Irving was in the crank room oiling the machinery. No one else was with him and just how he became caught under the great crank will never be known. A passenger, Mr.

Charles Smith of this village, passing the open door, heard or saw him fall. He spoke at once to Engineer Merritt, who immediately stopped the engine. Irving was drawn out with his skull crushed in and bis brains scattered about. He was dead. He was a married man, 32 years of age, but had no children.

His body WaS taken by his brother to Albany yesterday, at which place his brother resides. -Bag Harbor Corrector. A village Improvement Association has been formed at Sag Harbor, based somewhat upon the model of the Laurel Hill Association, of Stockbridge, Mass. Its objects are to improve and ornament the streets and public grounds by planting and cultivating trees, cleaning and repairing side-walks and doing such other acts as shall tend to beantify and improve said streets and grounde. Such an association is needed in our village.

THE Long Island Railroad Company will soon erect a patent safety gate at the crossing at Penny Bridge. On account of the large -number of vehicles passing to and from Calvary Cemetery, and the obstructed view of the track, this is one of the most dangerous crossings on the line of the road. Ir is stated that 8 Vulcanized Horn and Rubber Button Manufacturing Company will commence work at Breslau, about January 1st. The company is a very rich concern and will employ at the commencement about 200 hands, including boys, girls, men and women. A new boiler of eighty horse power will be put in the factory, and a new chimney erected.

A. T. Stewart and Company have made a demand for most of articles manufactured by this company. paper box factory and a wooden box factory will be connected. Alise Annie Mitchell, the udopted ter of Thomas Foster, of Christian Hook, fifteen years old and weighing nearly two hundred, was courting Sam Eldred on the sly.

They were communing few nights ago, about eleven o'clock, when and his one legged son discovered them. Foster was pretty rough with the girl, and Sam resented it, and as a consequence there was 8 free fight in which Sam came out best, and took the girl away with him. Foster Sam arrested, and the girl appeared on the witness stand as his wife. Now Sam, for certain slanderous words spoken by Foster Land his son agaidst Mrs. Eldred, has invoked the law against them.

-Jamaica Standard. Few young men started with a finer prospect in life than Geo. 8. Biggs, formerly of this village, who has lately been sentenced to 21 years in the State Prison for dealing in counterfeit money. He tried to pass a $50 counterfeit bill in a Brooklyn store, and was arrested and searched, when more of the same sort was discovered on his person.

The young man is of a most excellent family and the sympathy of the community is extended to his heartbroken mother, The story of this young man's fall is more powerful in its plain recital than the most eloquent and forcible exhortation that could be delivered.Huntington Long Islander. THE United States sloop of war Vandalia, Commander Meade, is now in port, after cruising over 15,000 miles surveying the Gulf of Mexico. The Commander is now at home in this village. -Huntington Long Isl ander. The story of a tom cat, in the Patchogue Advance: "Mrs.

Daniel Young had a strange and exciting adventure a few days since with a tomcat. The door being open puss walked in and lay down by the stove and for a few moments was apparently asleep. Then it sprang up suddenly and ran about the room springing to the top of the window and stovepipe with great rapidity. Mrs. Young became alarmed and tried het best to get the animal out of doors.

Her five little children were playing about the room--two of them twins. The cat frequently sprang upon them and they set up a wild screaming. The dinner table was overturned, many of toe dishes were broken ann a scene of wild confusion prevailed. The cat at last sprang onto her son Harry, six years of age, who had been helping his mother, and commenced to scratch and bite. Mrs.

Y. threw down her broom, seized the cat with her hands, tore him from her son and threw him out of doors." THE young man, George Hendrickson, alias Streeter, who was arrested 'in Hunter's Point on Friday evening, on suspicion of being implicated in a plot to rob the Flushing Queeus Co. bank, has confessed the existence of the job, and gave the names of his three confederates, but for obvious reasons they are withheld. Two of them are old cracksmen and the third is a young man of a respectable family, who was never known to have engaged in crime before. The robbery was to have been perpetrated on Saturday last.

When Hendrickson was arrested he was on his way to Flushing, and on his person were two loaded revolyers, a dirk fourteen inches long, a gag, 8 leather strap to pinion a man's arms and a lot of cord. He threw a letter out of the car window at Winfield, which has since been found. ISLAND WEDDINGS DeMott-Smith-At Newbridge, Nov. 12, 1879, by the Rev. S.

The Washington Market Index speuks thus of THE BUTTER house men positively assert that if people who eat olec- margarine knew how it was made and of what it was made, they would never touch it.

not withstanding the fact that the manufacturers of it state that they have secretly placed it in competition with batter, and it has never been diecovered, even by experts. What the public want to know is this: Must they be compelled to eat oleomargarine, simply -because the men who control the cutter trade in our cities are asked for oleomargarine, and must, to save themselves from financial ruin, keep it on hand and sell it Suppose they do come out with a great blast of trumpets and say they brand it; the consumer don't bay it from them, and it is just as easy to scrape off a brand as it 18 to have one tub ship out of the immense warehouses of our burter merchants unbranded, or, at least, so faintly branded that it would require a locomotive headlight and a powers ful microscope to find it Of course, we know our wholesale houses must sell everything asked for -wooden hams and nutmege, or lottery tickets, if they are asked for. But this plea of improving -the grade of butter throughout the country by the introducing of a counterfeit imitation, is as tensonable as it would be to have a committee on currency issue a flood of fit money in order to have the nations of the earth reach standard of values. Farmers ate the backbone of the country, Whether they be rick or poor, they all, perhaps make butter, and they make butter from the milk of cattle.
