Fire in Columbia Destruction of the
Presidents Mansion.

On Sunday night, at half past eleven
o'clock, fire broke out in the Presidents
mansion Of the State University and burnt
it to the ground. The building was occu.
pied at the time by Pres. John H. Lathrop.
The fire originated in the southeast corner
of the front building, in the attic story, and
made considerable progress before being
discovered. The alarm was given to the
interior of the'town as soon as possible, and
the citizens with great and commenGibIe
alacrity rallied to the scene 10 assist in ex-
tinguishing the flames, or in rendering such
assistance as otherwise might be practi-
cable. But when the first of them reached
the spot the flames had made such progress
that staying them was impossible. The
scarcity Of water on the premises and alb
senoe of ladders with which to scale the
building would have in any event been un-
favorable to the extinguishment of the fire.
All the inmates Of the house escaped I'm
harmed and much of its contents were
saved.
The fire originated by means of defec.
tive nue. The building was erected at the
time of the erection of the University at the
expense Of Boone county, and has cost from
first to last about $4,000. There was no
insurance on it.
We understand that private appeals have
been sent to the Legislature 10 make good
the loss by appropriating sufficient sum
TO replace the building, This, we think, is
eminenily just and proper, and hope the
Legislature will not fail TO make the appro.

The Pork Business.

So far the season has not been particu-
larly favorable for handling the hog crop Of
This part Of the State. While The supply is
unquestlonably as great all through the
country as il was last year OF this time, the
same reasons do not exist for hurryipg it
into market. Last season cold weather set
in early--corn was 10 and 80 cents q
bushel-eonsequently there was nothing 10
be gained in holding. This season on the
other hand, the weather continues warm and
hogs fatten fast: corn is cheap worth about
20@3o cents, which, by feeding to hogs
brings from 80 cents to 81 per bushel-
hence farmers are holding-and not losing
by doing so. We are informed, on the best
authority, that the average weight of hogs
throughout this part of the country will be
from rs to 80 per cent, greater than last
year, and for the reason above given.
The packing prospects are not as favor
able as could be wished. Those who would
embark in that enterprise can not see their
way clear at present prices. The remem-
brance Of severe losses in the business last
year will deter them from running on ex-
tensive risk. Should the price of hogs fall
10 five and half, or six dollars per hun
dred there will undoubtedly be con: iderable
packing, but there is no present probability
that there will be any such decline, though
the New York and Chicago markets have
been receding for two or three weeks past,
and the hog market in the latter place is
rather weak, and declining at $40 per hun.
bred which is decline Of So per hundred
within the past six or eight weeks. The
fair.market value of pork here to-day is
SO 50@9-now coming forward. Should
there be cold snap presently there will be a
rush for the market, but the probabilities
now ere that the great hog crop for this
part of Iowa will not be packed before il
reaches the Chicago market.

Attempt at Ircendiarism.

On Tuesday night last, about o'clock, an
attempt ives made by some unknown per-
son to set fire to the ware house Of Burnam
4 Bowling, in this place. Some dastardy
wretch had placed shavings and other COM
bustible material in crack underneath the
house and set them on fire; but it was for
tunately discovered and put out before it
communicated to the building. Had this
attempt been successful it would have in.
volved at least two blocks of buildings and
tremendous amount of property in con-
hagration.
The people should now be on the alert
and visit vengeance on any found guilty of
such damnable vilainy. Too much care can
never be exercised to avert fires, so often
the consequence Of carelessness and negli.
gence In case Of fire at any point now
the scarcity of water would be severely felt.
Hence the necessity for prudence and cad
ton.
The more efiectually to secure agains
accidental fires, we think it would be emf
nently proper for the Board of Trustees to
direct the Marshal to visit the various bust.
ness houses Of the town and cause their
owners or occupants to institute a rigid ex.
animation into the condition of the hues,
stove pipes &c., oftheir respective houses.
