ExtraOrdIumry Ca.uaIt,e. in Russia.

Fires continue to prevail in various parts of
Russia. The R',ssian Correspondence of ST.
Petersburg says:
"A conhagration has destroyed I08 houses in
GOrOdOk, iii the government of Wilma. Nearly
all of them belonged to Jews. Two children
perished in the flames. Three days after anoth-
er fire broke out in the Jewish quarter at Grod-
no, and destroyed 81 houses. A considerable
fire has also taken place in BOrisofF in the GOV
ernment of Mohilew. The church, the syna-
gOgue, 295 houses and I35 shops BECAME the
prey of the flames. The government uses all
its efforts to prevent these disasters A sum of
{, $50 rOubles has been granted by the Governor
General of the Western Provinces for the pur-
chase of fire engines. Henceforth every dis
trict town Will possess one constructed accord
ing to the French system; a nd-pump, hatch
cts ladders DC. 1t remains now for the inhab-
itants to organize the service properly"
As appears from the last years returns, there
occurred in European Russia "a term in which
the capitals of Moscow and st. Petersburg, as
well as the two separate dependencies of Poland
and FindaDd are not included) no less than FIVE
hundred and forty-six fires in towns, and 4,005
fires IN villages within the four months from
May TO August. The damage in the towns was
estimated at 3Sl2, ,507 roubles, in the villages at
9,2622l6 roubles. Large as these figures are,
they must be small in comparison with the dam
age of the current year.
Within the same period $50 murders aud $40

COULDN'T KILL HIM.

Ed. p Rockwood, late private in the 57th
regiment Massachusetts volunteers in battle at
Coal Harbor, Va, June Sd, 1864, was hit by a
ball in the chin, which badly fractured the bone
and tore out several teeth. Another ball hit
the right shoulder, fractured the shoulder blade,
and the ball remains undiscovered. The third
ball passed through the right side of his sbdo-
men and brought him TO the ground. His com
panions dragged him to hole, where his body
and head could not be reached by the enemys
firearms; but his legs being exposed, one ball
passed through the calf of his right leg, anoth-
er cut deep groove through his right shin, an
other cut through the top of his right instep,
and another carried away the next to his great
toe. He lay IN the hole from o'clock A. M. to

THE FOURTH IN LONDON.

The Americans in London celebrated the
4th of July by dinner at Willis Rooms
There were upwards of two hundred ladies' and
gentlemen present on the occasion. Hon. Free
man ii. Morse, United States Consul presided
Minister Adams was compelled to be absent,
and also to abandon his intention of receiving
in the evening at his house, such Americans as
might be in London. on account of the death
Of near relative. John Bright, who was also
invited, could not attend, but sent a letter, in
which he said:
."You call it the eighty ninth anniversary, and
so it is in reference to political independence
and freedom from the rule of the English mon
archy; but 1T Is or viii be, the 4th Of July on
which you can proclaim yourselves free from
a much worse bondage than any which England
has inflicted upon any of her colonies and de-
pendencies. Your continent is free from sla-
very, and from the evi1 working of that insti-
tuition upon your noble political system. con-
gratulate you upon this new and greater free
dom with all my heart"
Letters were also read from the Hon. and
Rev. Baptist Noel, Rev. Newman Hall, Mr.. ].

A WeaItby Churcb Corpora,iou.

The New York World devotes several colums
to detailed statement of the immense property
held by Trinity Church, in that city. Its real
estate originally consisted of 2068 lots, granted
it by King William III, in 1897. Since I746,
31s lots have been given away, 1859 have been
sold, 59l remain; yet, owing to the rise of prop
erty, the value of the remaining lots is very
much greater than the original value of the
whole VIM. B. Astor leases large number of
the lots, which leases will expire at the close of
May, 1866, when the Church will come into full
possession of them. Their value is estimated at
$6,000O00. The Astor lease includes 1886 lots,
which were let, in 1867, at seventy five cents
yearly per lot for term of ninety mine years.
They are all occupied by buildings which bring
Mr.. Asior high rents, and comprise some of the
most valuable sites in the First Third, Fifth,
Eight and Ninth wards. Mr. Astor pays Trim
ity Chapel $269 per annum for all the lots, be-
ing about seventy five cents for each. If we
estimate the rental from each building on these
lots at the low average of $500, the fortunate
leasehOlder must receive on an invested capital
Of 1863 an income of $l69,O00 per annuml In
a few years all the leases given by Trinity to
various parties will expire, and the property will
revert back to the corporation. The value Of
the whole real estate will then it is said, not fall
far short of twenty millions of dollars.

The President has issued proclamation, pre-
cisely similar in language to that for the recon
struction of the other rebel States, appointing
Hon. Richard p Marvin as Provisional Gov
ernor of Florida, aud providing for the re-estab-
lishment of State and Federal law there. Judge
Marvin was for many years widely known as
an able lawyer in Western New York, then as
a Judge who bad few equals upon the bench
He also represented that of the State during one
or two terms in Congress. Subsequently he
received the appointment of United States Dis
trict Judge for Florida, and removed TO Key
West, where he resided until the commencement
of the war. His unwavering loyalty was the
cause of his return at that juncture to New
York, and he now goes back as Provisional
Governor of the State which his influence and
great personal popularity could not restrain
from the madness of rebellion.
The appointment of Judge Marvin makes
complete the reorganization of the Southern
States according to the Presidents plan. The
Provisional Governors who have been appointed
by the President are as follows:
North Carolina, William W. Holden; South
Carolina, Benjamin F. Perry; Georgia, James
Johnston; Florida, Richard p Marvin; Ala
bama, Lewis Nj. Parsons; Mississippi, William
l.. Sharkey; Texas, Andrew j. Hamilton.
The remaining Southern States are provided
with civil Governors, elected in accordance with
legal FORMS

Written In an hour of Dark Dependency.
One by one my hopes have perished,
One by one my joys have fled,
And the friends that most cherished,
Now are numbered with the dead
All my days are sad and dreary,
All my nights are spent in grief
Naught can cheer my life so weary.
Naught can bring my heart relief
Much loved friends with whom I've parted,
NevermOTe their forms to greet,
They have left me broken hearted I-
We no more on earth shall meet
Ne'er again on this side Heaven
Shall this aching heart find rest
Till my sins are all forgiven,
And I'm numbered with the blest.
But when have passed deaths portal
And have reached that blessed shore.
| shall LiUe with Christ-immortal
shall meet those friends once more
Then farewell long nights of anguish,
81 shall see my God and friend, -
Nevermore ON earth to languish-
Care and toll and pain shall end.

The following lines, from the Ns,o Jerusalem
Messenger, comprise an appropriate and beau
tiful answer to the above:
Take no Thought for the Morrow.
One by one the sands are flowing,
One by one the moments fall;
Some are coming, some are going,
Do not try to grasp them all.
One by one thy duties wait thee,
Let thy whole strength go to each;
Let no future dreams elate thee,
Learn thou first what these can teach
One by one, bright gifts from heaven,
Joys are sent thee here below;
Take them readily when given,
Ready, too, to let them go.
One by one thy griefs shall meet thee.
Do not fear an armed band;
One will fade as others greet thee,
Shadows passing through the land.
Do not look at life $ long sorrow,
See how small each moment PAIN;
God will help thee for tomorrow,
So each day begin again.
Every hour that fleets SO slowly
Has its task to do or bear;
Luminous the crown and holy,
If thou set each gem with care
Do not linger with regretting,
Or for passing hours despond,
For the daily toll forgetting,
Look too eagerly beyond.
Hours are golden links, Gods token.
Reaching heaven; but one by one
Take them, let the chain be broken
Ere the pilgrimage be DONE

ASTHMA AND COUGH CURED.

The Pine Tree Tar Cordial gives instanta-
peous relief in cases of Asthma and Whooping
Cough. 1t often cures whooping before it runs
half its course, as it acts at once on the phlegm
and mucus, and expels them from the throat,
and the sufferer is relieved. In case of Asthma,
use DIR. Wishart's Dyspepsia Pills with the Cor
dial rs they have never been known to fail to
cure that disease.
