This morniug, about three O'Clock, fire broke
out in a one story house 10 the suburb known as
Pocahontas. The flames quick ~ communicated to
the two story house adjoiniog, occupied as q
dweliog and store by Charles Haley. The efforts
of the firemen were entirely useless, owing to the
want of water, and in less than one hour both
houses we're burnt to the ground. The buildings
and contents were owned by Haley who holds q
policy of insurance for S000 far less than his real
oss.
Capt WIN. PAENILI- it is understood, has tep-
dered his resignation President of the South
Side Railroad Company. 1t will be no easy matter
to fill the vacancy, more competent and disin
terested gentleman than the Captain cannot be
found in connection with any of our public works.
