Particulars Of the Fire Of Friday Might. In a
portion Of our edition of Saturday morning, we
stated that at the time we went to press de-
structve fire was raging near the President ct.
depot, and that the extensive machine factory
of Messrs. Wells * Miller had been entirely
consumed. We were in error in stating the
names Of the sutfercIs,-!t was the planning mill
of Mr.. r. Erickson that was destroyed, and
not the factory Of Messrs Wells < Miller. The
fire broke out a short time before l2 O'Clock,
and such was the comhustbe nature of the
building that IN brief period it, together with
its contents were entirely destroyed. The loss
is about $4,000, on which there is policy of
insurance of $1,000 in the Hartford Insurance
company of Hartford Conn. The flames soon
extended to the adjoining large three story ma
chine shop, owned and occupied By hessrs.
= Shannon & WenwaT, which, in like manner,
with all its valuable contcns-macAinety, &c.
fell prey to the deyouring element. A
large number of tools and materials were con-
sumed, together with the building, upon neither
; of which, we regret to learn, was there any in
surance. This loss viii! fall heavily upon the
proprctors, amounting probably to from eight
TO ten thousand dollars. \ considerable guam
tity Of lumber, lying contiguous, which had
} been left there to be manufactured, and boards
) TO be planed, was also consumed. Some Of the
adjoining lumber yards were in imminent dan
ger, and suffered little but to no great extent,
Had not the tiremen been so active and ener-
getic in checking the flames, this fire might
have been still more destructive. They work
, ed with interchangeable energy and perseverance.
:, The alarm between and o'clock on Sa-
turday morning, was caused by the flames break
Ing out afresh from the same place as mention
ed above. The fircmen were, however, soon
on the spot, and subdued them, before any fur
thGr damage was done.
! Funeral Sermon at Monument Square. We
learn that on Saturday last, at meeting of the

JACKSON. Rev. John A. Collins, presiding FL
!, der of Baltimore district was appointed to pro-
nounce funeral sermon. and Rev. Henry Sill
Ger, of North Baltimore station, to assist in the
exercises. Sunday afternoon, July 18th, at
i O'Clock, at Monument Square, was designated
S as the time and place for the interesting SER
vices. From the high reputation and acknow-
lodged abilities of the clergymen selected for
the solemn occasion, our fellow citizens gene
rally may anticipate the most appropriate moral
improvement of the loss of the nation in the
death of the Hero and Patriot, and the triumph
of christianity in the tranquil and happy death
Of an humble confiding christian.
