ezer (2) are furnished in the text. （3) Jonas, s. of Ebenezer (1), d. 3 Oct. 1817—Paige. His children who were heirs of Anna Cutter's estate in 1842, were Jonas, of Cambridge (proprietor of the well-known Fresh Pond Hotel); John, of Cambridge; Elizabeth, Mary, Francis, Joseph, all of Cambridge; Susan, wife of Oren Willard, of Ashburnham; Nancy, wife of Richard C. Hastings, of Boston; Harriet, wife of Reuben Winslow, of Roxbury. （4) Joshua, s. of Ebenezer (1), settled about 1813 in Cincinnati, Ohio, and deceased Feb. 1832. He was one of the celebrated Boston Tea Party in 1773, and his account of his participation in that event to Rev. Timothy Flint, in 1827, the well-known writer on the Western Country, was reproduced in the Old and New, for January, 1874. At the time of the destruction of the British tea, in Boston Harbor, Joshua was a journeyman blacksmith in Boston, living with a tory master; and owing to his being a young man not much known in town, and not liable to be easi<

nd for years remained silent. But, in 1877, the town built a schoolhouse near Malden line, which was called the Curtis school, and Mr. Curtis donated to it the shipyard bell. It hangs in an iron yoke, with a solid wheel of wood for the bell-rope. The tongue of this bell is somewhat peculiar, in that it swings in all directions. This is a small bell, 14 inches high and 19 inches diameter. An ornamental design encircles its crown, and above it is the inscription, Cast by G. L. Hanks, Cincinnati, Ohio. No mark of weight, tone, or date is discernible upon it, and its weight is probably less than 200 lbs. At present it is, and for many years it has been, the only school bell in Medford. The other bell referred to was the depot bell. Installed, at the opening of the Medford Branch railroad, at first on a little platform at the end of the roof-ridge, it was later housed in a cupola. The old-time style of ringing was similar to that of church bells—ten or fifteen minutes before the

the visit was devoted exclusively to this object. I came away quite a Robinson Crusoe, and could, I think, scoop out a canoe, at least, and rig it in true nautical fashion, should ever an occasion call for it. At this place, too, I beheld a wonder. With my own eyes I saw the buds of three large roses growing on the limb of an apple-tree! That beats the knockers all to pieces. The traveler who thus wrote was Rev. B. F. Tefft, D. D., the editor whose Tracks covered a journey from Cincinnati, O., to Bangor, Me., and return. In this section quoted from, he described Boston and suburbs as seen from the State House cupola, and in another place we find that Captain Rich was of Brookline. He visited Bath, Me., and mentions its ship-building, but as inferior to that of Medford in amount. His publication at New York and Cincinnati, 1840-1877, was that devoted to literature and religion issued by the Book Concern of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and held the esteem of the peop

Selling his children. --The Cincinnati (Ohio) Press says that a widower of that city, having three fine children, aged respectively 2, 4 and 6 years, and desiring to visit California, felt them an encumbrance, and so made an arrangement to exchange them with a person for a certain amount of apple butter, and actually completed the bargain.

A Riverine league. The citizens of Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington and Newport on the Kentucky side of the Ohio, have entered into a combination and raised a guard for their mutual protection. A similar combination has been formed by the cities of Louisville and New Albany and Jeffersonville, on the Indiana side. At a meeting of the Mayors of the three cities, General Toley, of Indians, stated that the entire people of the 8th Congressional District in Indiana are preparing to stand by Kentucky in any and all extremities, and that they will protest the border against aggression from any quarter. The mules, pork and corn of Southern Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, can only find a market in the Southern States. A tariff for the benefit of the New England Yankees is as oppressive and odious to them as to any other portion of the sentiment.

under the influence of "rot gut." They were fined $10 each, and sent to jail. The correspondent of the infamous Greeley speaks of drunken rows in Richmond, Virginia. He ought to come out this way, where he can write more truthfully about rowdyism and fights with butcher knives among brother soldiers. As I remarked in a former letter, I am strongly of opinion that the city of Cincinnati is the most vulnerable important point on the free Border States, and from the hills of Covington it affords a splendid target for Southern Columbiads and Minnie rifles. I further believe, that 20,000 or 25,000 well drilled men, commanded by a Davis or a Beauregard, could make it appear any other than like a "Queen City." I trust the beloved old Commonwealth will be able to sustain herself in common with her sister Confederates in the pending fearful conflict with the would be dictators, who have pulled down this goodly fabric of the best Government the world has yet seen. Cosmopolite.

Collecting Black Mail. --A young man from Cincinnati, Ohio, was recently called upon to visit New Orleans, La., on pressing business. He had hardly taken up his quarters at a hotel, when some swindler, who had seen the visitor's address upon the hotel book, called upon him, and represented himself as a member of a "Vigilance Committee," and succeeded by threats in inducing the young man to pay him $50 as black mail. The stranger made known the circumstances to the Mayor, who instantly took the necessary steps for the arrest of the swindler.

ey, which two years since counted thirty or forty ranches. Two Mexicans were killed belonging to the train of Messrs. Elisburg and Amburg on the 3d, at Cook's Spring. They had been sent back from the train to look for a missing mule. Nine men sent in search of them were also attacked at the same point by the Indians. The Indians succeeded in getting five mules from the train. A party of emigrants, California bound, were also attacked the same day; but being forewarned were prepared for the red devils, and gave them a warm reception, causing them to beat a retreat. Mr. H. C. Grovesnor, Superintendent of the Santa Rita Mining Company, and two Mexicans, were killed by the Apaches on the trail between the Santa Rita mine and Fort Buchanan, some two weeks since. Mr. Grovesnor was a lithographer and an old typo, a native of Cincinnati, Ohio, where his family reside. He had resided at Arizona several years, and won the golden opinions and confidence of all who knew him.
