The Extensive Frosts.

The widespread area of low
temperature, accompanied by kill
ing irostt, in all the northern
States from Maine to Minnesota,
can hardly be regarded otherwise
than as a public calamity. hile
wheat and rye were not far enouch
advanced to be seriously injured
by the frost and corn is scarcely
planted, fruit and all early vege
tables above ground are doubtless
much damaged, if not entirely
destroyed in the northern belt ol
States and probably in many sec-

line ot Pennsylvania. The grapes
in tho Chautauqua and Seneca
LaKe sections of New York are
certainly destroyed, and it is hard
ly possible that the apples in

I here are several silver linings
to this frigid cloud, however, the
most important of which is to be
found in the fact that the great
staples upon which humanity de

A Large Capture.
About the largest capture made by the
revenue officers in along time was made
here by Deputy Collector Shelbnra
Wednesday night
The officers got wind that a quantity
of blockade whiskey was coming to town
that night and were on the lookout for
it About 2 o'clock a dray belonging
to W. R. Ilerndon was captured on
Main street, and the driver, Charley
Bray, and Ceorge Durham, who bad
charge of the whiskey, were also takea
in. The officers knew that there was
more whiskey in the lot and forced the
man to tell its biding place.
He told them that they would find a
wagon containing the other lot of whis
key in the yard of A. A. Andrews, on
Milton avenue.
The officer went as directed and
fonnd the wagon and the whisker.
There was three 6o gallon barrels and
one io gallon keg in the lot filled with
corn whiskey. The whUkey and the
horses and wagon was seized. The
whiskey and team is supposed to be the
property of Dan Andrews, who runs a
government still near Rorboro.
Thursday morning Shelbnra also
seized two more barrels of whiskey, ana
the property of Robert Chisenhall, and
the other belonging to M. C, Herndon.
Th; entire lot seized includes 310 gal.
Ions of whiskey, three horses, and two
wagons. Unless the owners come np
and claim their property, which is bard
ly probable, the entire outfit will be
sold by Collector Thomas.
Two ot the horses csptured are fine
animals and are well worth $300.
