THE ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.

The FIRE was discovered issuing from the
sash aud blind mauufdctory of w. P. Rus.
sell 4 Co foot of Hussell street Mr.. Rus
sell thinks it to be the work of an incen-
diary. The establishment had been closed, j.,
and the furnace of the boiler covered with
water before the men left. The proprietor
did not leave for an hour and a half or
more after the workmen. When hr left
everything was in order, ani no 1gnS of
fire or anything approaching TO il. In
about an hour and a half afterwards Mr..
Russell heard the al"rm of fire-learned
that his establishment wis on fire. From
these circum tAnces he infers that the fire
was set, or was the result of rnrelessness
on the part ola number OF country negroes
who had been quartcred der an old shed
adjoining his establishment. in allowing
their camp FIRE To get ahead of them.

TIE FIRE IN CHARLESTON.
Some further particulars OF its dIsas-
trOuG spread.
(From the Courier Of the 18th. J

The fearful couaagration which has just
passed over our city will cause the l1th
and 18th of December, 1861, hereafter to
be remembered as one of those dark and
trying periods which, for the moment, seem
TO parnlyze all the long cherished hopes
and bright nnticipntions of the future. We
have heen visited by one of those disas-
trous dispensations OF Providence which
we cannot attempt TO solve.
Our city has received terrible blow,
which it will take the work of years TO re-
pair. Let US nerve ourselves, then, for
another start, thankful that we are still
left with the same hold spirit and strong
arms to make new, and perhhps more sub
stantial, prosperity for our beloved city.

PsA1As. cxty Y. Cat m1dnight I viii rise
to give thanks unto Thee because Of Thy righteous
Judgments.
The pastor commenced with al appropriate
introduction upon the character OF the occas-
ion and then said even in this midnight Of our
countIy>s history we may rise and lift up our
hands towards Heaven and give thanks to the
Lord.
Among the things for which We should be
thankful is life, and i'll that life involves. We
live and move and have our being in the Lord.
That We live Is, because He lives in US, and
that we have sense Of being is because His
spirit flows in and animates our Spiritual. and
thence the uluteria1 form. Like earth, with
its grass and flowers and trees and 1ruit5
without the sun and datmosphere-som man, with
all his thoughts and affections and deeds Of
love, without the Lord, is dead.
We shon]d also be thankful for the abundant
haryests which have filed our granarieS to
oyerfoWing; for the focks and herds which
have added their values to the riches and COM
forts Of the land; for commerce, manufacture
and various industries which have fouri5hed
in spite OF adverse Causes. No hungry cry in
vain foT bread Few, II any, suffer from lack
of fire or clothing. Few industrious but can
ind employment and its just reward. The
Lord has protected U.s. from plaques and cpl

over ali our land.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
REV " y. PATTON

After an anthem had been giTen by the
choir, Rev. E. IL Boring, P, E., read hymn
1923, commencing:
Eternal source Of every joy
and after it was sung, offered a comprehensive
and ferEent prayer The Rev. b Cox, pastor
Of The church read the scripture lessons and
hymn 1929:
20 God, oar fathers oft have told-''
The sermon was then preached by Rev. T.
1t. Eddy, DID,, editor Of the AoTthnestsfa
Christian 4docafe. The text was Isaiah xiv,
Is "Wlcrefore glorify ye the Lord in the
fires" He spoke Of Thanksgiving as one
naturally suggested By the dependent relation
we sustain TO the A1l-Giyer, and jet duty
more easily performed at some times than
Others. Easier for him who stands in the
Light Of prairie sunset, with immeasurab1e
fields Of golden grain, with happy villages and
satisfied industry all about him, than for him
who stands in the centre Of the Great Desert,
surrounded by tidclcss ocean Of burning
| sand, the wells dry, men and camels dying Of
| thirst. In the first instance it was easy to
| take up tle Hebrew anthem, His mercy en-"
| dureth forever" In the second it were hard
| to cay, Thou opcncst thy hand and satishest
the desire Of every living creature 1t Is
| easier for him Hho sails beneath skies blue as
! steel and lighted hY the fire Of omnlpotence,
! to sing:
% give thanks unto Him that By wisdom made
thu heavens: -,
| To Hin that stretched out the earth aboEe the
! waters.
That made great lights the snn to rule By day.
| The moon and stars to rule By n1ght:
| than for him who clings to fragment OF ms
wrecked ship through pitlless blasts and blind
ing snow, for days Of hunger and thirst, with
"no light Of the sun or the moon or any
star."
After some other Illustrations drawn from
the social relations, he said:
Ordinarily the Thanksgiving Proclamation
falls upon willing ears. It comes when me
harvest is shouted home-barns filed, the
grana1ies j2mmed, schools packed with enll,
dfen, and health at cur tables, and Fe tespoha q
