FIRES IN Charlottesville No 1.-On
Friday afternoon last, about 3 o'clock, the
barn and stables of COL W. R. Myers were
destroyed by fire, which communicated to
the kitchen and other out. houses of Mr.. G..
H. Elms, which were also consumed. The
general impression was that this fire origi-
mated from spark lodging upon the roof
of the barn, where the flames were first
discovered, but subsequent events, which
we proceed to notice, give good ground to
base the opinion upon that incendiaries are
at work, determined to burn out the city
The loss of Col. Myers will not exceed
500 Mr.. Ems' loss is perhaps about
$3.50 or S400.
Fire No. 2.-At about II o'clock, on
Saturday night, the barn of Mr.. Cook was
fired, and the building, to ether with its
contents, were consumed. Loss about $500.
Fire No. 3.-At day. dawn, yesterday
(Sunday) morning, the unoccupied tcne-
ment of an out house, known as the Meth.
odist parsonage property, occupied by the
Rev. Mr.. Kennedy, was fired, and all of the
out.houses Of the premises, together with
the store.room in the rear of the dwelling
the property of j. NJ Springs,
were entirely consumed Charlotte Bul-
