Local Intelligence.

FIREs.-About ten o'clock on Wednesday
proved to be the barn of Mr.. D. Wineow, on
the Bedford road, a portion of which was
occupied by Mr.. Fl. Mehn as a slaughter
house.
Mr. Mohn had four large beeves, which he
had killed for market two sheep and veal
burnt up, and Bear, which Inc designed
shortly to kill.
About two o'clock on Thursday morning
another alarm was sounded, caused by the
burning of the slaughter house Of Mr. j.
Britton, located in close proximity TO the
Tannery of The Messrs. Withers. on Centre
Street. The flames spread rapidly, and were
soon communicated to the new building re.
Gently erected by those gentlemen, from
which they spread to bark shed, when they
were finally checked. Mr.. Withers had nc
insurance on the part Of the tannery burnt
His loss is from $4,000 to $4,000. Tht
fremen worked manfully, and deserve grea
credit for their untreing energy.
There can be no doubt but these fires wer,
the work of an incendiary, as the Apparatu!
Of the Cumberland Company was tied so as
to delay their getting to the fire. A
reward of $500 has been offered by the
Mayor and Council for the miscreapts, which
we hope will have the effect Of bringing them
tojustice.

Droll Incident in a Theatre..An Inyet.
crate Whistler.


a few evenings since a little event
occurred at Niblo's Theatre, New York,
which will be remembered by all who
were present. Pending the appearance
of the members of the orchestra, who
for some reason we're behind time, a
plainly dressed man in the third tier
commenced whistlns tho peculiarly
plaintiff melody. the "Last Rose of Sum
mer," with sweetness and grace quite
bewltching. By degrees the accustomed
hum OF voices in the parquette and boxes
ceased, and all eyes were turned upward
In the vain endeavor to trace whence
g, the my sterious and thrilling strains.
The AUDIENCE seemed entranced with
inc strange warbling notes and trills of
.ne whistler, and perfect quiet rcigned
throughout the house. Some Of the
actors peered from behind the curtain.
ana even the musicians crept silently
into the orchestra. With the most in.
tr'cate variations the whistler filled the
air, when storm of applause broke from
the audience, which almos. shook tho
house to the centre. Again we're the
shrill and peculiar notes Of the whistler
heard, and again was the house reduced
to breathlcss silence. The strange
music ceasing the second time, the Or
chestra struck up an operatic air, but
their music was fairly drowned by the
storm Of applause. One of the ushers
finally traced out the whistler, and churl-
ishly turned him out Of the house.
