The FIRE THIS MoRslSG.-About half past
O'Clock this morning a FIRE broke out in the
Grocery Store Of E. d T. B. Fisher in the Ohio
Block, Sd st., near the canal, and for time
threatened direful consequences. 1t seems that
It is impossible for FIRE here TO do very great
damage II our fire department can get a sup
ply Of water.
The fire was doubtless the work Of incendaS
ries, who are believed to have first broken in
the cellar, when they made their way up stairs
Previous 10 setting FIRE to the premises, they
robbed a box which was under the counter, Of
about $500. They set FIRE to the Store in some
three or four places, by soaking brooms with
burning fluid. and setting fire to them; and
they also act FIRE 10 the goods in the cellar
The stairway from the store room above was
burned, and the flames had such draft that
before 7 B. Fisher got awake his bed clothes
were on FIRE. The damaget to the Store room
and contents, is not known; they have an in-
surance Of about 81 500 on the property
They intend to renew their stock at once, and
will open again in three or four days.
The frame kitchen Of Mr.. SCHNEIDER, adioip.
ing, was considerably damsRed by the fire, and
We learn that the rear of the building was m ore
or less injured from the cellar to the roof
These are IS near the facts and circumstances
as we can get them at the present time.

H@.The following statement in the
Charleston Courier shows a realizing sense
Of the real significance of the disunior
movement:
The truth is that disunion, out of South
Carolina and few earnest spirits here and
there in the Gulf States, is mere game oi
the politicians. 1t is raw head with
which they hope to frighten the inevitable
Yankees from seiEing on their share of the
public spoils. This is the truth, and when
the State acts on different theory, it is the
fable Of the mountain and the mouse, az
exhibited in the present form Of the South
ern States conference question.

NEW STYLES OF WAGoSs-It would be strange
il after the "but e'end" of half a century, War,

about wagon, but II he did not acquire a
knowledge Of the tastes Of the people, and the
foresight to get up just such styles as will take.
The new wagon-extensionAtop, two seated
Ph@tou-which Phillips is manufacturing at
his shop is the neatest, cosiest aud most sty lish
as well as the most convenient we have seen
for long while. Col. Greer was out in one Of
these establishments the other day, and We
don't think we ever saw prettier turnout;
aside from its shape-the symmetry Of all its
parts--what adds to its "invitinguess" is that
where it needs to be, it is strong, and where it
is not needed the work is light and "etherial." d"

ken care of than by T. @. Buutin. Factl He

It, too. Buntin is such a comfortable looking

body feel al home, aud is clear indication
that the eommissarat department Of his house
is under efficient management. Il send you

exceedingly to stop at shabby, third class hos

datioM can be had at such houses as the Buntin

falling into such traps iu future. Weary trav-
eler, il you are ever within so miles of Terre
Hauto and want comfortable resting place
and stop at the Buntih House. My word for
it, you will be satisfied.
Terre Haute has always had unusual attrac-
tions for me- 1t has so Cheerful an aspect; the
streets are SO well laid out and clean; the
buildings SO good. aud business in so thriving

politicians (the Democrats) were drowned in
