destructive fires occurred in Baltimore Friday night
The first destroyed the upper stories of two buildings
on the south side of Batmore-s, occupied by Grit.
th's carpet warehouse, and armory by the Juni-

the work of an incendiary: Soon after the fire had
been got out, second one broke out in North Gay-st

cots chair factory and furniture wareroom, Tarrs cab
met establishment, Mr.. Mitche's dwelling on Freder

FILLMORE ON SLAVERY. The hatred of Fill
more for Governor Seward is well known. The H.
6any EUeaing Journal, the wing organ at Albany,
Is also well known to be friendly to Gov S., and in
consequence of this fact Mr.. Fillmore and his ere-
tanners have established during the last spring,
new paper at Albany, called the estate Register''
to advocate the views and pretensions of Mr.. F. and
be his especial organ 1t may therefore be fairly un
dersood to reflect his opinions
In that paper, during the month of April last while
Ten Taylor was in good health and Mr. Fillmore
had no reason TO look for his immediate accession to
the Presidency the following explicit declaration APP
peared. 1t may help us to guess what is lust ahead
"Ihe attempt to make the wing party an Anti
Slavery party Is not only impractcabe, but if posi-
BILE, would be, according to Washington and his pre-
sent worthy successor fraught with the worst conse
quences to our country. In its operation upon the
party, the movement thus far has been most perni-
clous Beyond all question it lost us the election Of
1874 and well nigh wrecked US in I84s. 1t Dor
tends nothing but unhappness and evil to US in the
future. If there has been any party purpose in the
adoption by wing conventions and legislatures ofAnti
Slavery doctrines. it has most signally faied.''

ACCIDENT AT CATsKILL. Mr.. Foster fell
over the Falls on the CatskiIl mountains, Sunday
morning, but is ina fair way to recover. His leg
was fractured dagcnaly between the knee and thigh
and his lower jaw broken. There were some slight
bruises on the other parts of his body but no inter
nal injury.
His escape is one Of the most remarkable we have
ever known He fell over perpendicular precipice
between seventy and eighty feet in height The rock
from which he slipped was somewhat shelving, and
ashe slid afew feet before coming to the edge, this gave
him projection forward, causing him to fall some
fifteen feet beyond perpendicular Descent throwing
him into the stream, instead of on the rocks imme-
diately below. The water, which was four or five
feet deep, broke the force of his fall.
When his companion reached him, he was sitting
upon log in the stream, close to the falling sheet
of water. Heidi not recognize his companion for
some five Minutes, owing to his bewilderment from
the fall, but orty recovered his senses fully and
evinced great self-possesson and even sang froid
instanceof which it is stated, that when in ex-
aiming his l5uries, asympathetic remark was made
upon the loss of his teeth he observed that was no
matter as hewas dentist
