FIRE.-The alarm of fire about two
o'clock yesterday morning was occasion
ed by the burning of the West Virginia
glass works, located about mile west
of Bridgeport, Ohio. The establishment
and surrounding frame buildings were
entirely destroyed before the flames could
be subdued. As the fire was such dis
lance from the city and as supply DIVA
ter could not have been obtainedfor our
city fire engines they were not brought
into use. The citizens of Bridgeport
did everything in their power to save
the property, but owing to the scarcity
of water the fire was not extinguished
before the works were entirely destroy.
ed. The establishment was owned by
Messrs. Ripley, Cowl & Co, of this

A RELC.-We have been shown a
deed or title drawn up 10y Governor Pat
rick Henry, of Virginia, in l7S3 grant
ING to Benjamin Johnson seven thous'
aud acres OF land in Yohogania county,
tor seven presumption treasury warrants.
The document is gotten up in ancient
style, covering a sheet of paper near two
feet long and one foot and a quarter
wide. 1t is signed in a bold hand "P.
Henry" The lesser seal of the Com
monwealth can scarcely be diseerned
on the lower corner ofthe document
The deed was found few DAYS ago, by
Mr.. Samuel Herrot, among a lot
of old papers which had been Slipped to
TO this city by Adams Express humber
of wears ago. The package was not
called for at the Express Office. and at
the last sale of unclaimed packages it
was disposed of at auction. The an
Gent looking document is much the
worse for wear, but will be preserved as
a relic. 1t will serve to remind its owAel
Of the good old times of Patrick Henry
and "Oid Virginia"
