ington special says the President has a
message on the late peace interview pre-
pared, embracing the letter from JEFF. Da-
Wis to Mr.. Lincoln, letter from Mr.. Lin
coin to Blair, and other documents. Publi-
cation of the message will dispel any idea
of a probable peace from this interview.
The Worlds special says this message
will show that most of the statements con-
cerning this interview have been false.
The rebels never mentioned recognition.
All they asked was an armistice pending

DANGERoUs.--There is, in the sidewalk
on the northeast corner of Broad and High
streets, broken iron grating, over which
salt barrel has been placed at times to keep
pedestrians from falling into the cavern
below. We have noticed on several occa-
sions, for instance on last evening, that the
barrel was removed from the broken graf
ing, thus exposing unwary passengers to
the peril of falling into the trap, and of
breaking their limbs or necks, perhaps
both. This is matter that should be at
tended to at once by the person or persons,
whose duty tits to see that such dangers do
not exist.

vlous, and where they captured few Wag-
ons Of Pegram's division.
In the meantime the rebel cavalry sta
toned at Bellefield were ordered up to re-
sist Gregg's advance, but their forces were
not strong enough, and consequently no
regular fight took place. About one hun

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. S.-The fire here this
morning originated in Blackburn 81 Co.'S
sheds for storing refined oil in bond. 1000
barrels of oil have been destroyed. 1t was
Insured mostly in New York. Forty build
ings, mostly three stories, are burned. The
oil that escaped from the burning barrels
poured over into Ninth street and down to
Foderal, filing the entire street with lake
OF lire and igniting the houses upon both
sides or Ninth street for t,'~ =3--.-, -
carrying devastation into Washington,
Ellsworth and Federal streets, both above
and below Ninth street. Fully five squares
OF houses, had they been placed in a row,
were on fire at once. The scene was one to
men and children We're literally % IT, roasted Wo
alive in the streets. Capt. Jas. ii. Hale,
who occupied dwelling in the vicinity,
with his wife, five daughters and two sons,
met with sad misfortune. They all sue
ceeded In getting into the street from the
house just as they left their beds, but,
mournful to relate, found themselves in
river of fire. The family became scattered.
Mrs. Hale had her youngest child, beau
tiful little girl in her arms, and was en-
deavoring to save her.. She fell, when
herself and little child, and another daugh-
ter about fifteen years OF age, were
burned to death in the street and their
bodies were so horribly mutilated that they
can only be identified by the peculiar cir
cumstances surrounding them. Capt. Hale
and two sons escaped, but three daughters
are missing. Six bodies in all have thus far
been recovered. Three of them were recog-
nized as belonging to Mr.. Hale's family
Another of the bodies is supposed to be
that of James Gibbons. There is also the
body of a boy not yet recognized, and that
of a fireman. 1t is thought that several
other persons have perished, and that there
are bodies still under the ruins. 49,.
