Abolitionists, does not deserve the acquies-

A large fire occurred in Louisville, KY,
Tuesday night last, by which the Gait House
was burned, and some adjoining buildings.
The loss is very heavy, not less than 81, 900
00O 1t is not known whether it was cau--
ed by incendiarism or by accident, but it is
supposed that the hotel was set on lire, as
the United States had leased blocks of stores
in the rear of the Gait House, which were
filled with provisions, &C., for the army. Ii
is difficult TO a preach these stores, az
they are guarded by the military. But by
burning the Gait House it was hoped to fire
the United States property. The United

mess to make an agreement embracing all
prisoners held on either side, and make
such agreement applicable to existing pris-
