The particulars in regard to the fire
last night are given in our local col
umns. The necessity for some more
effective means OF dealing with the
dangerous and destructive element
must have been apparent to every one
present. And these means we never
can have short of couple of first class
fire engines. Had there been high
wind last night there is no telling
where the fire would have reached be-
fore the first stream of water WAS thrown
upon it. The disaster in all probabili-
ty would have been wholesale along the
entire block in which it originated. We
can always expect fires. but we cannot
expect many such unusually calm and
favorable occasions as last night. Let
us be warned while it is time.

JOHN NJ. Boris having been addressed
by certain parties interested, to know
his opinioRas to the proper construc-
ton of the twenty thousand dollar
clause in President Johnson's amnesty
proclamation, he replies that as the
clause applies only to those who
have voluntarily participated in
the rebellion, each one must
conscientiously decide for himself
whether he belongs 10 that class or not.
To the question whether detailed far
mers" can be said to have voluntarily
participated" he replies that many OF
the most loyal men got themselves de-
tailed as farmers for the purpose of
avoiding military service against the
Government, and whether, as farmers,
they voluntarily aided the rebellion
must be decided by themselves individ-
ually, as they know more about their
own motives than any one else. He
tells them that many are uselessly an
moving the President, and Squandering
their money upon lawyers, for the pur-
pose OF procuring pardon, under the
impression that, unless pardoned, their
property would be liable TO confisca-
ton, whereas it is safe enough unless
they have voluntarily participated, and
ii would be time enough to apply for
pardon after proceedings under the
confiscation act should have been COM
menced.
Mr.. Bolts letter contains also the fol-
lowing opinion, of special interest now
to many in West Virginia, as to the
non-efTect of the Presidents pardon in
the matter of suffrage and other politi-
cal privileges.
"This pardon, as I understand it,
when obtained. only RENTS the penal
ties that have been incurred by those
who have Cndeavorcd to overthrow the
government, riMoUt conicrYiny any IoO-
tticdt p5'iTHegeS wh1tcccs', which are con-
trOlled in some instances by the enact
ments of the United States Congress,
and i'll others by the provisions ofState
constitutions and State laws, neither of
which are or can be disturbed by the
pardon of the President"

From Cincinnati CARTE Of yes'ereIdy.l
The public We're never more puzzled
about gold than they are now, and the
feeling is so uncertain and so sensitive
that there is not much disposition to
venture on either side. Ii is known
that the Treasury Department. in order
to keep down the stock of gold on hand,
and TO provide for the payment of the
August coupons on the 80 loan, has
for some days been selling the customs
receipts averaging $500, 900 per dav, but
TINS has not affected the price material
Iy. This would seem TO indicate n
strong undercurrent, and IL more solid
OASIS than Bull operators would be able,
by transactions, real or fictitious, to
construct. The surface indications, for
some time, have favored lower prices.
panic has even been predicted. The
movements in favor of this were fnvorn-
Die. There has been no demand for ex-
port, owing to the large shipment of
bonds, nor is there likely to be for some
time, a resumption of specie shipments.
But the public are slow in being con-
verified to the low price theory, in the
face of n steady imitation of the curren-
cy. We may talk as much as we please
about the value of the, currency, and
thcoriZe until we are weary to nroyc
that lrredeemable paper money is, be-
cause of its ultimate safety, as good MS
gold; but the public will persist in adj
herring to the old idea of gold standard,
and act upon the principle that Quantity
has much to do in regulating the value.
1t is perfectly clearno that neither the
Government nor the banks can resume
specie payments at present. 1t is Just
as clear that they can never resume
witEa volume of paper money equal to
Sl.000,OOO,OOO. And it is equally mani
fest that while we are adding daily to
this volume we are travelling away
from, and not in the direction OF, specie
payments. Suppose, while in this po-
sition, specie exports should be re-
summed what then? a decline in bonds
in England would lead to this. We are
importing largely, and the fall imports
will be still heavier. Our exports of
produce, meantime, are moderate, and
n decline in gold would diminish them,
because home prices would be main
tanned above shipping point. Balances
are being adjusted now, by shipments
of bonds. Check the foreign demand
for these, and specie exports would nj
once be resumed. There is, then, but
one way to put down gold and keep it
down, and that is 10 contract the cur
rency. When this work shall begin
then we shall have decline i'll gold
and decline in pretty much every
thing else.

THE coal miners of south Pittsburg
and vicinity are on strike. It isalIcg-
cd that when they last went to work .
it was with tho understanding that they
should dig for four cents per busheI
only on condition that their employers
should sell the coal ant eight cents. The
latter, it appears, have not acted in good
faith in not rcduc ing the prices from
the previous figures. This action on
the part of the miners, says the Chromi-
Gle, was not anticipated, and several
large manufacturing establishments
south of the NIonongahela River were
compelled to close, owing to the scnrci-
ty of coal. Steps have already been to-
ken to settle the matter sntistactorilv
Tho coal men have been reaping a COL
