NARROW ESCAPE FIRE-The Utica Globe Mills
narrowly escaped destruction by fire Sunday morning
last About o'clock fire discovered in the fourt6
story, used as the cardng room, and examination a
large box partly filled with wool prepared for carding
was found to be mass Of flames For safety in such
cases the water of the Utica Water Works COMPANY IL
carried through the building in large pipes and each
story Is supplied with short hose and pipe Each story
also supplied with of Philipss Fire Annihilaors
Inc nose was htted to the pipe and attempt made to
throw water the flames but the head was insufficient
10 reach IT, water was then carried to the fire in pals
but this also proved inadequate The annihator was
then placed as close to the flames as possible put in
operation, and the fire almost instantaneousv exn
gnished The box nearly converted into Goals Rv
this time the Water Works had flooded the floors and
would probably have prevented the spread Of the flames
but the Annator is entitled to the credit of extinpush
ing them The IRE can be accounted for no other wav
than by the superstition of spontaneous Combustion
There had been no fire in that part Of the building for
months, and faithful Waterman is constantly kent in
the building in the absence of the workmen The case
should receive the srctest investigation for the benefit
OF manufacturers similarly situated and we trust the able
superintendent Of the mills will give the public all the
light on the subject that may be in his power

THE WEATHER AND CROPS IN EUROPE

The weather. especially in the south of England hoa
been Of character to excite considerable uneasness for
"rnns In some districts rah has fallen quantities
greater tnan on any ocV"si>- rernrd for more than
century, producing heavy floods, ths have not only
swept off large quantities of outstanding H. and heaten
down the grain crops, but also inflicted gre general
damage property, and been attended in seye.sl in,
stances with loss Of life In Yorkshire and Scotlaad
however, there has been of moisture and TIN
accounts from those parts Of the kingdom perfectly
satisfactory Still the fact of the supply of wheat this
year being certain to be much below average to
be disputed by one and the consequence has been
further state of excitement in the grain market and an
other rapid advance in price, wheat having yesterday
been freely sold at rise of 2s s per quarter upon
the quotations current week ago. Whether this i'm
provement will be fully maintained may be doubted but
it must of depend upon the reports of the weather
from day day and the received from other
countries There is believe that it would have
been still more rapid but for the opinion generally enter
tanned that the stocks of old wheat in farmers hands
throughout the country larger than any period dur
ing the preceding twelve years. the recent prosperity of
the largest and most cnterprsing agrcuturis,s having
enabled themto hold for better prices From the con-
nen the statements during the past week are ss unfa
vorable, the weather from which England has suffered
within the last few days having apparently visited France
and Austria little earlier. Nevertheless much anxiety
is evidently entertained, and the hope to be not
that abundant harvest be realized in either Of those
countries but that it may be sufficient prevent actual
famine or distress.
An important announcement has been received from
Naples showing that in Italy also the prospects FIR
from encouraging Naples and Sicily usually produce
not only enough for their wants. but likewise to en-
able them to export large quantity, and in the most
abundant years 10000 or 10000 quarters havs
been taken from those countries by England alone
Decree however, has now been issued by the King Of
Naples dated the 18th instant prohibiting the export of
wheat OATS and barley from that day The export Of
Indian corn, beans end other pulse had been previously
prohibited-Landon Correspondence Commercial Advertiser
