A little after II O'Clock, last night, the alarm
Of Fire rcsounded through Burlington, and cal
led to the scene Of the CATASTROPHE multltudes
of people who were a great deal more orna-
mental than useful,-as usual!
The fire originated in the barn and stables,
in rear Of the residence of ENos PETERsoS,o on
st. Paul Street, owned by Mr.. PARTRIDGE, and
before it could be arrested consumed the barn,
the Carriage Shop in front, (owncd by Mr.. WIN.
MEAD, and occupied by JouN X. GRAY and
pretty much destroyed the dwolling-house Of
Mr.. PlTERsoy. Two valuable horses belong
ing to Mr.. PETGEsoN, and worth not less than
$500, were lost. We are Informed that there
was rot one cent of insurance on any Of this
property.
If water had been, as it ought to have been,
easily accessible, we are assured that the dwell
ling-housc and the Carriage Shop might both
have been saved. Pipes run through st, Pau.
Street, right past the scene Of this fire, but there
was no hydrant within available dIstance!-
How long. oh, citizens Of Burlington, oh, Sc

the only good they do is to fill the tender re-
~servoirs of locomotives We have no fault to

as we easily ran have, within every Square OF

last night, abundant supplies Of water can be

Worth rejecting on.

We commend to any and all our citizens who
feel interested in the true welfare and prosper
ity of Burlington, her growth in population,
wealth, and intelligence, the following brief
but significant paragraph which we find in the
last Boston Atlas -
THE WALLET MANUFAcTURE.-Thc Mcssrs.
Aims, at South Deertield, have an establish
ment for the manufacture of wallets, started
three years since. They now employ in their
shops, exclusive of stitchers, 1875 hands and
1875 dozen of the article are prepared for mar
ket daily. The yearly sales amount to Sl25,>
600, which is about double the cost Of the MA
terials worked up. Their success has started
up competitors. so that quite a village OF shops,
boarding houses, &c, owes its origin to their
enterprise in the business Boston Atlas.
Now we presume nobody will contend that
South Deertield, Mass, possesses as good fa-
cilities and advantage for this business as Bur-
lington. Indeed, Burlington is without a rival
in New England for all the natural advantages
and Inducements (such as chea pness and abun-
dance of raw materials, cheapness Of Transport
ket, excellence of position to avail herself Of
the best markets, &C., &c., for very many
branches Of manufactures, and yet we seem to
have hardly domestic enterprise enough to
make a horn-button. We trust the creditable
efforts of Messrs. lIickok and Landon, as pio-
ncers in the way towards the highest interest
Of our town, will be crowned with the trium-
plant success which those gentlemen and their
co-laborers deserve, and which the public good
requires. We verify believe that it would
prove the true "entering wedge" and with its
success we should soon see Burlington grow
ing rapidly to be what God and Nature" APP
pear to have designed her TO be, a great Manu-
featuring Emporium.

After this, Senator SEWARD made a very able
and conclusive speech on the vexed question
of the Fisheries, and the Senate adjourned.
In the House, nothing but talk, though con-
hicting statements are made in the papers as
to the action of that body on the amendment to
the Army Bill, appropriating 500, 600 to test
the prac;icability Of employing Camels instead
o. horses on the western plains--the Boston
Atlas saying the amendment was "non.concur-
