partition which divided the spinning and packing
rooms. The place at which the fire evidently took
place, forbds every idea that it was the work of

insurance. 1t was the property of Mr.. John Tim
berake, worthy and enterprising gentleman.

ton of The earnings of long and laborious life
But this calamity falls not alone on Mr.. Timber
lake. BY the destruction ofthe factory, a number
of poor operatives have peen deprived of their
only means of livelihood. We are glad to see,
however, that an effort will probably be made by
the citizens of Charlottesville to repair, in some
measure, the damage sustained 1t is proposed
by writer in the Jeffersonian, to form a joint
stock company purchase the mill site, replace the
machinery, and by allowing Mr.. II. an interest in
the operations, and paying him a sufficient sals-
ry for superintendent, permit him to continue
the exercise of his superior business talents and
experience in this particular department
AS the amount requisite to accomplish this
desirable end, will not, it is estimated, exceed the
sum of $50 900, we hope and believe that no
difficulty will be encountered in raising the
stock.
