Fire at Nashville.
JAMES SPEED,
Atty Gen.
NASHVILLE, June

NASHVILLE, y unG III.
At about two o'clock this afternoon,
the extensive builing used for Quarter
master and COmmissary stores, on the
corner of Summer and Broad streets,
known as Taylor's depot, was discovered
10 be on fire, supposed to have caught
from the sparks of a locomotive on She
track running lengthwise with the
building. These sparks fell into the cell
lar, and so0G the flames began to spread.
Capt. W. W, Wainwright, in charge of
the building, had two or three inches of
water on the fire before the arrival of
the fire department, The firemen, how
ever, promptly rallied to the scene, but
Iouha IL Impossible 10 stay Tue flames
until half Of the imuIvAsa building was
destroyed. The other half, nuuG with
commissary stores, was saved from de-
struction only by the most strenuous
exertions of the firemen.
The loss to the Government is esti-
mated at about five million dollars.
Several dwellings near the scene of the
fire, with their contents, were also de-
stroyed. So great was the heat from
the flames that it was almost Inn
possible to approach the burning build,
ings. Two or three employees OF the
Quartermaster's department are sup
posed to have persisted.
LATER.-The destruction of Govern
ment property at the great fire to-day
is now believed will amount to from
100000 to $10,O00,000

Military Governments for the South


The Times Washington special says
A strong feeling is finding expression
among many leading men here, in favor
OF the policy OF appointing military
States such as South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama and Mississippi, and
Of keeping the States under strict mill
tary control, until the people are once
more thoroughly returned to their avo-
cations and the labor status Of freed
men properly adjusted with their late
masters. The efforts of the delegations
from those quarters are not meeting with
encouragement. There are several prom
nent Generals, with fine executive abili-
ties and cool heads, who can now be
spared to settle the disturbed affairs of
these states.

A POINT ON WHICH ALL PHYSICIANS
AGREE.
Out of ten thousand regular physicians you
cannot find one who will not say that stimuants
and lnvigorants are absolutely necessary in
medical practice, And yet in by-gone years hui
name Practitioners have hesitated to administer
them, because the tendish ingenuity of wretehes
who make merchandise of human inhrmities,
had 81 pollutei aud deteroratei them that the
remedy was deemed as dangerous as the disease.
This perpleXlty is happily done away with.
Physicians know, because the first analytical
chemists Of the age have demonstrated the fact,
that HoSTETTER'S CELEBRATED STOMACH
BlrTERS are absolutely and entirely free from
all pernieious elements, Hence they have been
introduced into the United States Army, and are
accepted, wherein the testimony of the wise, the
intelligent and the philanthropie is rated at its
Just value as the best protective against and cure
for all diseases arising from impurity in the air
or other unhealthy climate influences, that has
ever been tested by experience. In cases Of
Dyspepsia and Liver Complaints, we state with
out Qualifo atom, that the Bitters are as nearly

BY ALLooCK'S POROUS PLASTERS.-How
many persons, from stepping on a piece of or
ange peel, have been famed for life. A case
which might have been of this kind has Just
been brought TO our notice. A gentleman, from
placing the heel of his boot on piece of orange
peel, was suddenly thrown down, and violently
sprained his knee. He was six months confined
to the house, though he had the best medical adj
vice. AS last resort very eminent physician
was called in to see if anything more could be
done. After examination he said, "My opinion
Is, your knee will never be bent again. He
recommended that the whole leg and knee
should be encased in plaster of Paris bandage,
which would accelerate the permanent stiffening
of the knee, and said, "the sooner it was done
the better.n But the patient, before, trying
this application and having stiff knee for life,
enveloped it in our Porous Plasters, and in less
than two months his knee was perfectly cured.
