on which occasion the following papers were found
TO be represented by the editors personally or by
proxy: Free Press and Spirit of Jefferson. Charles

Outside of the strict line of business. the con-
vention was interesting and improving to those
who participated in il. The most cheerful anu
kindly spirit prevailed; and the associations it TO-
dnced will always tend to preserve amenlty and
cordiality in their intercourse. The most serious
blow at the harmony of. the meeting was dealt in
the form OF a resolution that marriage not ces lie
charged for, on the ground that man who com
mits matImony ought to be made pay for his folly.
This was offered by Stewart of the Loudoun Demo

HALF THE BUSINESS PoRrIoN OF DAhyIILr IN

destructive cOnfagration that hns ever visited this
village. The fi:e broke out yesterday afternoon

with the Ligh south wind prevailing at the time
swept northward with fearful iapdty, and beyond

The entire business portion of the village on both

buildings (brlck) in which our Office is located
had a narrow escape. The west end OF our Office
is open, windows destroyed, type in confusion,
Out we are able TO regulate matters sufficiently to
issue this at an early hour this morning.
The strong wind wh'ch prevailed rendered the
IRE terrible TO contemplate, rs it rushed on with
mad Jury and rapidly destroying march. Its roar-
ing was like the rushing whirlwind, and its ap-
rearance like burning volcano. We have not
time Tor reflections us 10 the effect of this sweep
ing calamity on our village, but though severe
blow, we shall hope to see new and more Substan-
tia buildings rising, phenix-like, from the ashes
10 take the place Of msny of those destroyed
We regret to state that one of our citizens, Mr.
Kennedy, was SO severely injured by falling from
a third story window in the American Hotel as %
render his recovery exceedingly doubtful. He
struck upon the round OF a ladder on his back, but
ms injuries are mos y internal.
