The Park CITY Mill.

We are glad to learn that our enterprising
fellow citizen, j. B. Kupfer of the Bakery, has
purchased a half interest in the Park City Mill,
on the north side, and with Mr. Vogel who has
for some time past had charge of the Mill, will
run it so as to make it first class brand with
all cons umers of good flour. The present
system of custom work will be continued for
time, but we understand it is the intention
of the proprietors, as soon as their arrange
ments are completed, to do strictly merchant
business, and to manufacture only superior
article of flour, that will in great meas ure
supercede the imported article. Mr. Kupfer's
long experience in the bakery will enable hin
to detect any degeneration in the product OF
the mill, and everybody may calculate with
certainty upon getting just the grade of fom
that they pay for.
Mr.. K. will continue the Bakery business al
usual, and still furnish his friends, and the
public generally, with his celebrated challenge
crackers as well as with all the other product.

The Election

I In6 hl6CUl0n AZ, CT.
In this city on Tuesday was spirited anair
The canvass throughout, has been cCnuo0UoN
with as much earnestness and enthusiasm a.
we ever witnessed, on both sides. Senator DC0
Titles interest in Kenosha County was only
second to his interest in his own county OF Ra'
cine for in his loyal and faithful days this had
been his strong hold, and here dwelt many OF
his staunchest friends and most ardent sup.
orters before his apostacy, and hence his anx-
iety and efforts to retain place in the public
estimation. On Friday evening last, he was
here and lahored through his piece, as noted
elsewhere. Again on Monday night, the Sen
ator and his son were both here, and both spoke,
with a grand illumination scene. But they
spoke TO strange audience, and took up their
abode for the night with strangers, or at least
very recent friend. On Tuesday morning, faith
er and son left us for home, and judging from
appearances, we should say sadder ifnot wiser
men, for coming events had already cast their
shadow before
But we were speaking Of the election on
Tuesday. The enthusiasm that characterized
the canvass had not diminished on election
morning. The day was fair one, and both
parties went to work, determined to make the
most of their means. If the democracy had
Johns n's bread Land butter, not only in hand
but in prospect, as an incentive to unusual eff
fort, the republicans were stirred by holier
and more effective enthusiasm-the same that
had rallied them so often throughout the war
for the Union-love of country and devotion
to the Union and the Constitution. Every vo-
ter was brought out, and at the polls both par
ties were sharp to prevent Illegal voting, and
in several instances we understand there was
warm discussion on the subject. But the cleo
ton passed off without disturbance and the re-
suit is as follows:

Destructive Fire.

Destructive Fire,
About half past eleven o'clock on Monday
night the alarm of fire was heard, and people
who had just retired or about retiring were
on the alert at once. The fire was found to
be in the rear portion of the house of Mr..
Spaulding, on Kenosha Avenue, at the south
east corner of the Park. A crowd of citizens
and fremen was soon on the ground, but the
flames had the start of them. Quite q wind
was blowing from the south, driving the fire
through the kitchen and into the main part OF
the house in an incredible short space oftime.
Such progress did the flames make it was found
impossible to save hardly anything. Acouple
of sofas, a few chairs, two What-nots, a part
of bedstead, two mattresses, and few minor
articles, were all that they succeeded in saw
ing. Before the engines were ready to work,
the flames had burst out of the front door and
the upper story front windows, and had made
such progress that there was no hope of saw
ing any portion of the house. The engines
were kept at work, however, and somewhat
retarded the work of destruction. The wind
was in the most favorable direction for the adj
jacent buildings. The sparks were all blown
into the Park, where they fell harmless. In
about an hour the fine residence, the so late
quiet and comfortable home, was mass OF
! ruins.
The loss on building and contents is estima-
ted at about Sc, 900, upon which there was an
insurance of $1,000 on the building, and s., oOC
on the furniture
The family had just retired, when they were
aroused by the cracking of the flames and
| had barely time to get ont with Such cIofhino
as they could get hold of in the hurry and
alarm of the moment, which was very little.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but it is
supposed to have caught from ashes in the
| woodshed, or from some defect in the kitchen
chimney. One thing is being demonstrated
and that is that people cannot be too care
Iful with their fire, ashes, sc,

Another Fire.

We regret to learn that the residence of Ho-
sea Barnes, in the town Of somers, took fire
and was entirely consumed on Monday last
The fire was discovered about noon. Mrs.
Barns was at home, and Mr.. B. was employ
ed but short distance from the house, and
first discovered the smoke issuing from the
chamber. On ha stening to the scene of de-
struction, he found the chamber so full Of
smoke that he could not enter it. By the ut.
most exertions he cleared the furniture from
the lower portion of the house, almost entire
", before he was compelled to desist by the
flames. The fire is supposed to have caught
from defect in the chi mney. He estimate:
his loss at about 81, 900, upon which there wa,
an insurance Of 500.

Sambo again BETRAYED.

We have mentioned in another editorial
paragraph the trouble which the Radical
Convention had had in consequence of the
diversity of opinions existing in that body
as to the cxpediency of declaring in favor
of negro suffrage. We added that our
kilograms would contain the latest news
on the subject. Later papers inform US
that the question was disposed OF outside
the Convention, the Committee on Reso-
lutions having determined to make no
mention of negro suffrage either in the
resolutions or the address. The platform
will endorse the action Of Congress-.
The address appeals to Congress for pro-
lection, and pretends to set forth the evils
that have befallen the loyal men Of the
South since the full development of the
policy of President JOHNSON.
In consequence Of this shower bath, Mr..
ALBERT GRIFFIN, of Alabama, quit the
committee in disgust. We advise GREE
LEY to follow this good example, and quit
a party which dares not to set forth its real
principles and purposes. GREELEY de-
clared on Wednesday that the Convention
would almost be certain to come out for
what it calls "impartial " suffrage which
is soft term for negro suffrage.

Negro Suffrage,

The Radical members of Congress from
Ohio who voted last winter for comforting
the right of suffrage upon the negroes OF
the District of Columbia are denying upon
the stump that they are in favor of any
such measure in Ohio. They thus prove
themselves to be malignant, unprincipled
scamps, who are SO devoid of honor and Of
all sense of justice as to have tried to force
upon helpless people measure which
they dare not propose to their own con-
stituents.
But this reputation of their own oct is
a cheering indication that the people OF
Ohio, like those of the South, are opposed
to the extension Of the right Of suffrage to
negroes. The action Of the northern Radi-
Gals at Philadelphia also has the same
meaning. The antipathies of the races
must be respected. 1t is but the old story
that "blood is thicker than WATER" even
if the water be the tears Of the disinte.
rested gentlemen who supply the northern
people with lugubrious stories concerning
the wrongs and injuries suffered by Sambo
and his partners in distress-the "loyal.
lists" of the South.

MARYLAND Politics.

We are sorry to have to chronicle the
dissensions existing among the Conserva-
tives in the Fifth Congressional District OF
Maryland. Two conventions-one Of De-
p!ocrats, and the other Of Conservative
Republicans-have been held. The for
mcr had to adjourn because it could not
nominate anybody, while the latter ad-
journed because the former refused to
coalesce with it. Mr.. HARRIS is man We
greatly admire; but it would be inexcusa-
bic in him Or his friends to imperil the
success Of the party which sustains the
President on account Of any man or set OF
men. And it is treating the Conservative
Republicans stability to despise them be-
cause their votes are not needed in the
district. They will all be needed in the State
elections and even IL they should not be,
the Conservative Republicans ought to be
consulted in regard TO ell nominations.
These dlssensions about men and party
names are not regarded by disinterested
persons As indicating much patriotism.

An Amusing Show.

That tribe of troubadours who have left
the howcry land Of the South, and taken
their harps in their hands and repaired to
the City of Brothcrly Love for the purpose
OF playing upon thousand strings the
tune that delights the ears Of GREELEY
and FoxNEY, have tuned up their instru-
mcnts to too high key even for the negro
loving Radicals who flocked down from
the northern regions to meet them there.
Sambo is merely tool in the hands of the
Eadcals--not I" a man and brother" ex-
ccpt in so far as he can contribute to their
own asccndancy. But the troubadours
are in dead earnest. Unless Sanlbo be
cnfrarchiscd they are in powerless mi
nority. They therefore favor negro suf-
fragc throughout the country, and astound
their northern friends by proposing to say
as much in their platform. The Radicals
are thunderstruck. They realize the
meaning of ANDREW JOHNsON's sententious
declaration that he "doesn't like man
"who is more for him than he is for him
SELF" and beg the troubadours to play
in some other key. The telegraph will
inform the reader this morning as to the
result of this disagreement in the family.

The Vermont Elections.

"The star that never sets" shines with
increased brilliancy in the Radical hea-
VEINS. Vermont has elected Radical
Governor and two Radical Congressman,
and failed to elect third only because
her law requires that to make an election
valid on the first trial the candidate must
receive majority of all the votes cast.
The State Senate is unanimously Radical,
and the House not much better. And yet
q State such as this has two votes in the
United States Senate. We must have the
Constitution amended for her benefit, and
give New York city, which has more than
double the population of this miserable
little nest of fanatics, four Senator'S.
