DESTRUCTIVE FIRE ON SATURDAY NIGHT
Near midnight of Saturday last during the
heavy rain that was then prevailing, fire
broke out from the white lead factory of
low Harriet, which consumed the entire
structure, in spite of the combined efforts of
the rain and firemen. It was only by the ut
most exertions that the flames were pre-
vented from communicating to the extensive
buildings adjoining. The confagration was
a splendid one, and lit up the darkness of the
night with a glare as terribly grand as that
left by the fiery war-god Mars in his track.
The loss to the owners is estimated at about
$20,O 900, which was covered by insurance, in
various companies. The origin of the fire is
unknown.

LATE FROM CHRISTIAN CoUSTY, KY.-Lste
news from Hopkinsville, KY, has reached
the Evansville Journal. Its Saturdays issue
gives the statement of a Kentuckian who
left that place last Tuesday:
At that time six thousand rebel troops,
composed of Tennesseeans, Mississippians and
Keniuckians, were encsmped near that town,
under the command of General Buckner.
Generals Helm and Allcorn, the latter from
Mississippi, were also in the camp. The
troops were half naked, poorly supplied with
tents, and without a sufficient number of
wagons to carry the sick. They were armed
with shot, guns, old-fashioned rifles, with q
few United States muskets, forty of which
had been taken from the Union Home
Guards This force had just arrived at Hop
kipsville, and were nearly starved to death.
1t was found impossible TO procure meat,
coffee or sugar for the troops and even flour
was very scarce. They were not committing
any outrages upon the property OF Union
men, for fear of driving their Kentucky
allies from their support. We are informed,
however, that Major Breathitts house. at
Hopkipsville, was ransacked and riled by a
detachment of Buckners men. The rebels
are reported to be disbeartened and ready to
abandon their leaders. Unless they are
speedily furnished by the Southern Oonfed-
eracy with provisions and clothing, II is
probable that they will disband and return
10 their homes.

"WHAREAs: 1t has pleased the Supreme
Ruler to remove from our number our fellow
schoolmate, Lieutenant Daniel w. Finch,
who died of fever while in the service of his
country, at Camp Lookout, Virginia, on
Thursday, September 26, 1861; therefore,
"ResoEUed: That we bear unanimous testi-
mony to his excellent character and abilities;
that we honored and respected him while
living and sincerely lament his early death,
which cut off and left unfinished life which
promised to be one OF great usefulness; that
we keenly feel the loss of such good school
mate, citizen and soldier that although we
admire the patriotic. zeal which led him to
leave his freside and friends to do battle for
his country in the hour of her trials, we can
not but regret its untimely issue; that we
tender to the wife and relatives of the de-
ceased our sympathy and coincidence, and
commend them in their sorrow to Him who
doeth all things well.
"ResolUed: That we tender our heartfelt
thanks to our fellow-graduate, James G

BLEEDING CANDIDATE.-Two men ap-
preached a candidate on the Democratic
ticket, on Friday last, and strenuously in
sisted upon the said candidate coming OUT
for eectioneering purposes. They repre-
septed the mass of the party in very dry
condition, and nothing short of coming down
handsomely would do the business. The
entreated could not withstand the entreaties
of the parties to he treated, and so gave to
one the sum of $25 to the other SIS, to be
used in swelling up Democratic voters With
light hearts and, to them, well-filled pockets,
they started on their mission. The twenty
five-dollar man became interested in bar
gain with Jew, for full suit OF clothing,
which was finally concluded, leaving bal
ance on his hands of 81 so, which he disposed
of in treating bis friends The fifteen dollar
politician, no doubt having family in a very
needful condition, puI chased barrel of -four
and some hams, leaving a small balance in
his hands, of which no account has been
rendered.

ACCIDENT ON THE OHIO AND MISSISSIPPI
RAILRoAD-FTeigM Train Demolished and

small stream four miles west of Cochran, and
about thirty miles from this city, the bridge
gave way, and the locomotive and three cars
were precipitated into the stream and demol-
ished. The engineer, named Cyrus Perry,

SPRING GROVE CEMETERY.-The election of
Directors of Spring Grove Cemetery takes
place to. day at College Hail. between the
hours of three and five o'clock. This election
is one that the lot-ewners should look after,
as it involves the question of the Superin-
tendent. 1t is well known that party has
grown up disaffected with the doings of Mr..
Strauch, under the influence of whose energy
and taste Spring Grove has become one Of
the most elegant, if not the most elegant
place of burial in the world. The removal
of that gentleman from the station in which
be has 30 distinguished himself, and been the
occasion of so much honest pride and real
pleasure to so many of our citizens, would
be public loss.

THE Sketch Club met on Saturday evening
at the residence of John jeffrey, Esq, on
Fourth street. The attendance was good,
both of artists and amateurs, though several
of the former are absent at the wars The
subject to be illustrated was Burns's celebra-
ted poem of Tam OShanter, and number
of admirable sketches were presented.
Busts of Tam and the Landlady, in clay-the
material still wet, by Jones-the work of a
single day-struck us as exceedingly merito-
rious. The next meeting will be holden at
the residence of @. Garrett, Esq, No 10 West
Eighth street, the subject W. W. Fosdick's
poem Tubal Cain, which in order TO accomo-
date the members of the Club we have prom
ised to publish in the Press and which will
be given in a day or two, when His High
ness the Poet shall find time to bring in the
copy.

commenced the dialogue which follows:
Blair-"Mrs Fremont allow me to say to
you that in my Judgment Madame, your
proper place is at the head of your husband e
household at ST. Louis, and this intermed-

of it, in very bad taste on your part. And,
in conclusion, wish you to understand that
here is where we make men and unmake
them"
Jessie.-"Mr. Blair, permit me to say to
you that have seen some men Of your
making, and if they are the best you can do
