MORE FIRES !

! yr There we're two fires last evening. One
occurred nearthe First Presbyterian Church, in a
kitchen, (on the premises OF MessTs. Poore Muir
ray & Roper,) which was destroyed About
eight o'clock another fire broke out on the Basin,
South side Of Byrd, between ninth and tenth
streets in the extensive Tobaccobox Mandatory
Of ]. A. Pal,esoa. The building was consumed,
together with large quantity OF lumber stored
therein. A Stable OH the premises was also burnt,
with a valuable horse. The fire next spread 10 a
small Grocery, adjoining, and kept BY Mr.. Lip
mantle Grocery was burnt to the ground, but
the stock was saved-having been removed before
the fire reached the building.
The fire mex, extended 10 the residence of Capt
VIM R. Richardson, which was entirely con-
suned, together with some of his furniture-much
the larger part having been saved BY promp
removal.
The fire next communicated 10 the Tobacco
Factory of d. NJ. Branch, on the opposite side O
Byrd street, and did considerable damage. a
frame house, occupied by MIS- John Brown, was
entirely consumed; the factory was also much IN
jured From this, the fire communicated with
shed in which some 200 hhds. tobacco were stored
and but for The timely and wel-directed efforts
Of our fremen, the building would have been Ger
tainly destroyed.
The fre-proof warehouse Of Messrs. Henry
Ludlam & Co. adjoining, in which large amour
Of tobacco and -four was stored, happily escaped
all injury. We understand that there was
small insurance on the tobacco box mandatory
Of Mr.. Patterson. II is not known how the FIRE orr
ginated though, as it was first discovered in TIT
carpenters shop, il is suspected 10 have been lh'
work of an incendiary.
The fire on the premises OF Messrs. Poore
Murray & Roper, was the result Of carelessnes
in some Of their servants.

MORE OF 1.-THE WHITE HAT.

A lale arrival from Texas throws some light
upon the mysterious movements Of the British
champion, Capt. Elliott. He is still playing The
diplomatist, for forms sake-bul at the same time
condescends 10 act as land agent for his fellow
citizens Of Great Britain. This business may
suit his peculiar talents at intrigue. Certain il
is, lha, his bungling games of football with in
dependent Republics, proved a miserable failure.
The Houston Star OF the 29lh says il has been.
assured by persons high in authority that Capt
Eliott's visit 10 Texas is merely OF ceremonial
character; that he is there TO take formal leave OF
the existing Government, and will probably re-
main until The meeting of The Legislature and
that, possibly, he intends 10 submit the claims OF
British subjects TO Empresario Grants, with. an
ultimate view OF laying them before the United
States Government for adjustment.
