   Stephen Puffer, of this village, has taken the contract to build trestle-bridge No. 2, Section 1, on the DeRuyter Branch of the Midland. This bridge is situated in Norwich Village.

   Moving Buildings. - L.J. Weaver, of Pitcher, has been engaged during the past week in moving the late residence of J.G. Thompson from North Main across the lots in the rear, to Miller Street, to make way for the Midland Branch. The house, which is of itself a very heavy one, was moved entire - wing, chimneys and windows - and not a light of glass was broken, not a brick or plastered wall disturbed.

   He has been visited by many of our citizens, during the time, who were curious to see how the thing was done; and all are satisfied that Mr. Weaver thoroughly understands his business. He will this week move the Haxton house from its present location to one on the south side of the lot. One of the chimneys in this house is a very large one, but it is to be moved with the building.

   Parties wishing work of this kind successfully done, will do well to address Mr. Weaver, at Pitcher.
