— The Messenger office was insured for $1,000, which has been promptly paid. There was a mortgage on the office of $500 ; after paying this with interest, we have left, out of the insurance, onlv four hundred and sixty-eight dollars and thirty-three cents. Those who are in- debted to the Messenger will see that we need all that is our due, and we trust they will promptly respond, that we may be enabled to procure material for printing the Messenger on a larger sheet than this. With our next issue we pro- pose to send bills to all subscribers in arrears, and all others who feel disposed to aid us in getting a new press, may pay in advance, for as long a period as they can afford, and they will be credit- ed with the amount and the paper sent the full time — or paid in advertising — if it be for a thousand years. Providence permitting. Money may safely be sent by mail. — Already "shanties" are being built along the streets, and quite a number of our dealers have resumed business. The funds and valuables in the Banks came out all right. The Commercial Bank is now located in the insurance building, to which the Internal Revenue Collector's office has also been removed. The Glen's Falls Bank is in the brick dwelling house nearly opposite the American Hotel. The post office occupies the place for- merly known as Judge Hay's office, on Park St. G. W. Sisson's drug store is opposite the American Hotel, on Bay St. The Messenger office is now operating in a cornhouse, one mile north of the old place, on the Lake George road. I^All property taken from the fire, the owners of which have not been found, should be left at the new stone church on Glen St., where it may be identified. Our files of the Messenger were burned, and we will be thankful for back num- bers returned to us. — Hardly room enough this week for the letter just received from the ii8th Regiment. — Gen. Grant is pounding away at the very doors of Richmond. SUPREME COURT— The Dividend Mutual Insurance Company against Albert N. Cheney, George W. Cheney and Lucinda Cheney, his wife.
