Fire at Lafayette.

On Sunday morning about O'Clock Mr. SroN-
SELLER, merchant at Lafayette, was aroused by
his storehouse being on fire. The store, store
house, dwelling attached, and the dwelling of
Mr.. GRorzMYER were all burned Nothing was
saved from Mr. SroNsELLER's dwelling, neither
was anything saved from the store except the
books. Nearly all of Mr.. GRoTzMYER's IS household
goods were saved. Tho storegoods. it is said
were insured to nearly their full value The
storehouse belonged to T. A. TAYLOR Esq. We
understand that there was no insurance on it,
Rumor says that soon after the fire was discover
ed it was found that shutter was broken off and
the lower part of the window taken out which is
supposed TO have been the work of burglar.

Drink Pure Water.

hours it will have absorbed nearly all the respired
and perspircd gases in the room, the air of which
will have become purer, but the water utterly
filthy. The colder water is, the greater its capac-
ity to contain these gasses. At ordinary temper
bonic acid gas, and several pints of ammonia
The capacity is nearly doubled by reducing the
water to the temperature of that of ice Hence,
water kept III the room awhile is always unfit for
use. For the same reason, the water in pump
stock should all be pumped out in the morning be-
fore any is used Impure water is more injurou:
to the health than impure air.

An Editors Audience.

"Whom are you talking to2" Why, to much
larger audience than the best conversationist ever
could boast Of, and to more than ever listened to
him during months. How few clergymcn, how few
lecturers, how few public speakers of any descrip
ton ever witnessed an audience half as large S
that to which the editor of the smallest country
paper breaches! How many clergymen are there
who are accustomed to audiences of thousand,
and few papers are there which do not strictly and
literally find more than thousand readers.

SarsapRrilla.

This tropical root has a reputation wide as the
world for curing one class of disorders that alict
mankind--a reputation too which it deserves as
the best nntidote we possess for scrofulous COM
plants But to be brought into use, its virtues
must be concentrated and combined with other
medicines that increase its power. Some reliable
compound of this character is much needed in the
community. Read the advertisement of Dr.. Az
ER's Sarsaparilla in our columns, and we know it
needs no encomium from US to give our citizens
confidence in what he offers.
