GOV. MILLARD,s SPEECH.

Read the eloquent and patriotic speech of Gov.
Willard, of Indiana, in another column. 1t was
delivered the 29th August, at the State capital
to vast assemblage of Democrats and anti-Know
Nothings. The Indiana Sentinel noticing the speech,
says:
1.-The star grafton of the day that of A. P.
Willard. He is beyond all question, the greatest
orator of the age and of the soundest and most
reliable Democrats. If he is not next Govern
or there will be gratitude in republics. When
Willard speaks, the GREAT HEART of the Democracy
responds Every auditor feels that he is speaking
with his whole soul, and the electric spark of gen
Jus is spread from mind to mind, until fame of
enthusiasm is kintiled in every breast.
Three cheers for Willard, the great champion of
nationality. We love him for all that he has said
and especially for has noble Uindication Of South
ern BRETHREN and his indignant seorn and repudia
tior of the Uile and reasonable doctrines Of Abo-
ton. God bless Willard, because he is not afraid
or ashamed, in the presence of thirty thousand
men, say that the Southern States true to the
Union and the Constitution, and that the of the
South worthy descendants of our revolutionary
sires"
We look in vain for such sentiments these in
the newspapers and among the Know Nothings of
the free: States.

WELpoN, N. c., Sept. 80.
Dear Erpress III have scarcely time or material
just now for long letter, so only drop you few
lines to say that all things are still assuming ia
vorable feature in the pestilence-af1ict cities
Yesterday, only three deaths took place in Nor
felk, and am happy to say no new cases occurred.
In Portsmouth, there were thirteen deaths yester-
day, all cases that were far advanced in the power
of the epidemic There were no new cases at all.
The nurses who came to the afflicted cities from
afar are now going homeward; between thirty and
forty of them came up to-day, per Seaboard line, on
their way South. They bear with them the good
will and commentator of all who know the suffer-
ings that Norfolk and Portsmouth are just issuing
from.
The Seaboard train will run daily hereafter, for
general accommodation, as usual.
Yours, truly, @. j.

FIRE IN SALIsBURY.-We learn that a fire occure
in Salisbury on last Thursday night which consum-
ed the Drug Store of DIR. Sill, with all it's contents
the Postofice, the law office of A. H. Caldwell, Esq,
and probably some other buildings. The fire is
supposed to have been the work of an incendiary.
We gather the above from a passenger on the cars
The Salisbury papers will no doubt bring US the
particulars in a day or tow.
The building occupied by DR.. Sill large
wooden house on the south east of the Court
House, commonly called Chambers corner, oppo-
site the Mansion Hotel. The square was burned
down to the large brick store occpied by Mr. Mills.
This building much damaged, but it enabled the
citizens to arrest the further progress of the lanes
We learn from the Fire Insurance Company here
that Dr. Sill has insurance of So 900 his drugs
and medicines "A portion of the buildings burned
belonged to j. F. Chambers, which he was in
sured to the amount of about 1900; and portion
to John l. Shaver, insured to considerable amount.
The loss of the insurance company here will proba
bly, be between six and seven thousand dollars.a
