FIRES.

A house on Centre ST., owned by Cant. N
Harding, and occupied by Mr.. Peter Knight,
was discovered to be on fire, in a, chamber,
about halfpast six, on Wednesday evening last.
1t was, however, subdued, after partial burn
ing of the upper story. The fire is supposed
to have originated from spark dropped in a
closet, where, few minutes before, a young
lady in the family, had been for the purpose
of getting some article of apparel. A chile
sleeping in one of the chambers was rescued
by the daring intrepidity of Mrs. K, who
rushed through the flames, caught the child in
her arms, and was taken out the window
where she was handed down to the ground
Mrs. X and the child were somewhat burned,
but not seriously.

The town is possessed with rumors" and tele
graphic dispatches. These last purport to be from
Savannah and announce the arrival at that port o.
Gen. Lopez, while the men are at Key West
The Creole was chased off the coast BY the
Pizarro. It is also rumored that the Delta has a
dispatch from Gen. Lopez himself. We doubt the
authenticity Of all these reports. Il true the ex-
petition has proved an utter failure-and the high
tragedy has ended in low comedy
The Delta may as well furl its Cuba flag. For
our own part we are not inclined to give credit to
these rumors The men who are embarked IN this
adventure are not to be easily foiled and we can
not believe they would so readily abandon an enter
prise Of this desperate character.
The Americans expected that the people of Car
denas would join them Gu masss. When they
found themselves deceived as to the feeling of the
people at this point they refused to try the public
pulse at any other point, and insisted on returning
to this country. Such is the purport of the dis
patch said to come from Lopez who it is said, ha,
been arrested at Savannah.
