The loss Of machinery by the burning Of
Colts Armory is estimated ct $500, 900.
There were six miles Of steam pipe in the
building, and the scene presented by the
ruins as they remsin resembles the an
oient city unearthed by modern explors-
ions there are nothing except crumbling
fragments where q splendid building so
recently existed. The question is now
asksd-Who fired the Armory? That the
superstition Of an emisssry coming from
the rebels to fire the building is not prepOs-
ferrous, is shown by the fact that not long
ago workman did come there with the
piteous story that he was deserter from
the rebels, end he was employed. But

connecting the two main buildings, 30 that
it was likely to take both and destroy the

where the patterns and much choice dry
wood we're stored, which would readily
kindle. 1t is grestmystery how it could
have caught fire itself, and no one but 6
rebel sympstbiEer could have desired its
destruction.

in which they declare IS follows:
That we wear pledge Of exclusive al.
legiance to the Government Of the United

fectionately exhort our people, who by

tempted 10 sympsthEe with those who
seek the overthrow Of this Government, to
seek the word Of God as their guide and
not esteem loyalty thereto ss optional, or
matter Of taste, sympathy or preference,

the religious duty Of prayers and effort for
the restoration Of our national unity, peace
and prosperity, or, in the language Of the
Disciples, to use all lsudable means to en-
join obedience to the powers that be.
That we will not receive into the Con-
ference or elect to Ministerial orders there
from to the local OF itinerant ranks, any
man Of known disloyslty; that in view Of
the great change in the Providence Of God,
which is taking place in the public mind,

lieVe the time is not far distant when the
Baltimore Conference will no longer be
