DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN SAVANNAH.
The Savannah Georgian of FRIDAY saws:

Between twelve and one o'clock last night the
extensive drug store of Mr.. NJ. j. Solomons cor
ner of Barnard and Congress streets, was discover
ed to be fire. Notwithstanding the prompt
alarm sounded by the watchmen in the vicinity OF
the Market it was sometime after when the bells
were struck. The drug store of Mr. Solomons, on
the corner, the dry goods store of Mr.. Lipman ad-
joining, on Congress street. and the shoe store OF
Mr.. Hale, next door TO Mr.. Lipman and the hard
ware and tin store, gunsmith shop, etc, OF Messrs
Lowell & baltimore, adjoining Mr.. Solomons, on
Barnard street. are all destroyed.
Comparatively few goods were saved, and those
in greatly damaged condition. We could not
learn the probable amount of loss or what portion
is insured They were all irst class establishments.
each having fine stock of goods We think the
loss cannot be less than from $4,000 to $66 OOd by
the occupants. y
The block OF Buildings were owned by Geo. w.
Owens. Esq, whose loss cannot be less than from
s15,Ono to $4,000 probably insured ,e .-,,.i
A2l-2 O'clock, the time we write, the water in
the ciserns is becoming low though from the effci-

control, and will probably not spread beyond the

THE BRIG NAPOLEON AND THE SAN FRANCISCO.
The Boston Times has obtained statement from
three Of the crew ofthe brig Napoleon. enow atthat
Iort,) which spokethe San francisco on Christmas
day il which il is stated that Captain Strout, of
the Napoleon, after promising Captain Watkins, of
the steamer to take ON board portion of his pas
sengers ON the following morning, ordered his men
to put sail, and, about O'Clock in the evening,
bore away in an opposite direction, against the
remonstrances of his crew, alleging, reasonfor
his conduct that they were better OFF on the steam
er than they would be on his Vessel, which would
be sunk by the crowd if he had gone alongside OF
her. According to the statement of these seamen
they about seventy soldiers swept overheard
when all was anxiety to hear from the steamer, we
are not disposed toplace much confidence in any
portion of their statement
