FIRE-.Considerable excitement was occa-
stoned on Sunday morning last, between eight
and nine o'clock by an alarm of fire, coupled
with the hurried and startling information that
the Methodist Church was actually exposed TO
destruction. Our citizens turned out with
pals and soon large number were on the
ground BY q removal Of portion of the
floor about the Northwest register in the au.
dience room, and the lathe and plaster beneath,
in the basement the fire was reached and soon
extiuguished, but not until some damage was
doue to the csrpetug, aud saturaiing, if not
soilipg, the whole interior Of the house. The
cause of the fire was the TOO close proximity
of one of the hot air fiues with one of the main
sills The space between the two could hard
" have been more than two inches and the
whole surface of the timber was burnt away,
and but for the fact that some one was present,
a little time might have onve'oped the whole
stru cture 10 flames. The frequent destruction
of public buildings from the cause that ex-
posed this, would seem TO call for greater care
on the part of builders and architects. The
admonition thus administered. led 10 al. .exami-
nation by the officers of the new Congregation
al Church, and its was found that The pipe from
one of the furnaces rested drectIyl upon the
lath, and was, therefore, exposed at any time
to ignition and conaagration.
The fremen were promptly on the ground.

Then there are so many transitions OF thought
-shrewd conceits and flashes Of well timed wit,
that an audience never slumbers or tires for lack
of interest.
There is one other excellence, pervading both
manner and matter, Of too great Importance to
be passed over in silence. We mean the un-
mistakable moral tone manifested throughout
his subject. While he does not allow his rclgi-
ous principles to become obtrusive and often
sive to those who may differ from him, still no
opportunity is lost, TO add moral or draw an
inference in favor of Christian virtue and sound
morality This element must add immensely
to the popularity of Mr.. Chester, among the in
telligent and religious, who are among the best
patrons of public lectures. We predict for our
young friend and former townsman, Anson q.
Chester, n brilliant career; and none will be
more welcome among us in coming days, or
command n better house. R.Hc.

ented, by whic the rivet holes shall perfectly
fit each other, though sheets have to be Tapped
over each other. Boiler plating is nearly one
quarter of on inch thick; this would require
the outside plate to be three.quarters Of on
inch the longest; this machine by its own mo-
tion makes the variations necessary, so the
holes perfectly correspond in the out and inner
plates. Thus much lessoning the labor OF
boiler making and adding to their strength.

EDITOR TELEGRAPE--Permit me to offer a
thought or two on the subject of Arson G.
Cbesters Poem on 1.-THE Gods" delivered on
Wednesday evening. To say the people were
pleased is too tame, the audience were delighted.
From his former lecture on "OH Boys and Girls"
we were led to expect much; but it was more
than we expected Within fifteen years we have
listened to many of the most popular Lecturers
who entertain city audiences, and do not hesi-
tate to say, Mr. Chester's Lecture and Poem
will rank anon the best His manner in speak
ing is very easy and graceful, showing, at once,
fine cultivation, as well as genius; while his
style and composition is smooth and gentle. with
q large stock OF originality and spicy variety.
