A write up of the deserted village of Long Lake was given in tbe Mantón Tribune laet week. All that reniained of this once flourishing luraber burg was destroyed by fire only a few days ago. Five or six years ago the place contained two large saw mille, a nutnb 3r of good buBiness places and many quite fine residences. It claimed a popul.ition oí severai nundred inhabitants and when it first sprung into existence bid fair to make a flourishing village. But the pine was soon exhausted, the milis were removed and with them went the inhabitantt?, until not a family wís left. For several years the buildings stood to mark the spot where pleasant homes were once located, but the forest fires of 1893 bave now completed the wreek by wiping tl e whole thing from the face of the earth.
