EDWARD EVERETT ON THE CABLE.

One of the finest things yet spoken on the cable is
the following by Edward Everett
"Does it seem all but incredible to you that in
teligence should travel two thousand miles, along
those slender copper wires far down in the all but
fathomess Atlantic, never before penetrated by
aught pertaining to humanity, save when some
laundering vessel has plunged, with her hapless
company, to the eternal silence and darkness of the
abyss? Does it seem, say all but miracle of art
that the thoughts of living men-the thoughts that
we think, up here on the earths surface, in the
cheerful light of day-about the markets, the ex,
changes and the seasons, and the elections, and
the treaties and the wars, and all the fond nothings
of daily life-shoud clothe themselves with ele-
mental sparks and shoot with fiery speed in mo-
mcnt, in the twinkling of an eve, from hemisphere
to hemisphere, far down Cang the uncouth mon
sters that waow in the neither as along the wreck
paved floor, through the oOzy dungeons of the ray
less deep; that the last intelligence of the crops,
whose dangling tassels will in a few months be CO.
quoting with the west wind on these boundless
prairies, should go flashing along the Shiny decks
of old sunken galleons, which have been rotting
for ages that messages of friendship and love, from
warm living bosoms, should burn over the cold
green bones of men and women, whose hearts, once
as warm ours, burst as the eternal CULTS closed
and roared over them centuries ago?"

greater in consequence. Last evening the formal
celebration took place, in which all participated,
and soon after retiring the alarm Of fire was sound
ed, and the dreadful confagration began. Again
the iiremen and citizens lily prepared to meet
it, and the fire did its worst.
The fire originated after eleven o'clock in
the livery stable of IIeavey Il McAnally, on Miner
va alley. The flames quickly spread to the east
ward northward, and westward. The Third Pres
byterian Church on Main street speedily took, and
destroyed without drop of water being thrown
upon it. So the brick block at the corner of
Stone street, owned by Mr.. Butts. The fire could
60 no farther east for want of material but the
three-story brick block next to the church, on the
west, owned by John F. Bush, already on fire,
and was consumed. The large block next, west of
Minerva alley and built in the same style as Miner
va block soon caught fire, but for time there
hope that it ms 5ht be saved.
This hope was disspated, but it was
separated by brick wall from Minerva Block, it
was thought the latter might be saved. Here, too,
all were disappointed-the fire fingered for a while
at the wall, but when it passed, it rushed wildly to
the work of devastation, and after laying this fine
block in ruins, it passed southwark along st. Paul
street, till it had destroyed some fifteen stores.
The grand total by our figures stands Sl72 900,
with a total insurance of SOB, 500 There are some
small losses and nsurances which we have probably
omitted. This is by far tho most destructive fire
ever known in this city.

IDLE ruRI0SITY CIIRED.

On Franklin's first trip to sec his father in Bos
ton, he was worried almost to death by the abomi-
nable inauisitiveness of the New England tavern
keepers Neither man nor beast could travel
among them in comfort No matter how wet
weary, how hungry or thirsty the poor traveller
might be- he was not to expect an atom OF refresh
ment from the silly publcans until their most pestif
erous curiosity first gratlhed. And then Job
himself could not stand such questions as they
and where he might be a-going, and what religion
so on. After having been prodgously teased in
this way for several days, until at last the bare
sight of public house almost threw him into
ague he determined to try the following remedy at
the very next tavern: Soon as he ahghted from
his horse he desired the tavernkeeper to collect his
whole family, wife, children and servants, every
soul OF them, for he had something vastly important
to communicate. All being assembled, and Won
dering what he had to saw he thus addressed them:
"My name is Benjamin Franklin. | am printer

DREADFUL CONFLAGRATION-F BLOCKS
AND TWENTY STORES In RUINS.

From the Rochester Union Aug 1871
Our city has been visited by dreadful calamity,
and a large district in one of our business centres
has been laid in ruins by fire. From eleven o'clock
last night until daylight this morning the devour-
ing element held sway, and not subdued until
every building the south side of Main street,
from Stone to st. Paul street, had been destroyed
together with all the stores the east side of
South St Paul street to Bucklands Block, incud-
ing a number of buildings on Minerva alley. The
well-known Minerva Block, and the Third Presby-
terian Church, among the buildings totally de-
stroyed. The fire may be said to have fairly spent
itself without resistance, for it burned until it
reached walls which offered nothing of combus-
tble nature.
