smoke was seen issuing from the gro
Gerry store and meat shop of Fred. W.
Bennett, cornero of Locust and Second
Streets. After FIVE or ten minutes
hallooing the bells commenced ring
lug, and at intervals they rang on. At
precisely II O'Clock the engine got
into position on the corner of Main
and Second and, after some delay, the
hose was stretched along Second
Street. When some time was con-
sumed in getting the hose de-
tached from the reel aud the nozzle
on, at thirty five minutes after one
o'clock a door was broken open, and
the engine got to work. Tue smoke,
in the meantime, was breaking forth
from various parts of the building,
and the windows became so hot that
one could not hold hand upon them.
Soon after the engines got to work,
the whole building twas flooded. and
the whole stock of goods was Of
course. destroyed. Theh g FIRE
was speedily extibghsheda AT
this late hour NO estimate of
the damage can be aseertained.
1t is supposed that the stove fell over
and setthe building on fire, though it
was said that a side door leading in
from a naYf.ovv alley uaS faund open
which led to. the supposition that
some one had broken in to rob
the store, and had set fire to it.
The delay Of the engines was proba-
bly, occasioned by the fact that no
| ght was visible to direct attention to
the locality of the fire. Mr.. Bennett
saved his books, in a damaged cohdi-
ton, The swell mob was around IN
full force, which strengthens the be-
lief that the promises were seton fire.

understand from reliable sources,
that there are Certain parties in the
city who are endeavoripg to add to
their revenue by boarding steamboats,
bsIyly. nosi1g around. and when they
find any failure to comply with all
the requirements of the steam boat
laws of Congress, go straightway and
report against them, and, by crowding
matters, generally succeed in inducing
the boats to pay over the fine, of
which these harpies pocket one half.
Now. our acquaintance with steam
boatmen leads us to believe that not
one in a hundred of them ever delib-
erately violated the law of Congress
or of State. The omissions which
some times occur are almost invari1
ably the result of neglect on the part
Government officials. whose duty it
is to post steamboat owners and COM
manders.in reference to the require
ments of the law, and to furnish
them with all the papers necessary to
enable them to run without mOlesta-
ton or interference Where steam
boatmen deliberately neglect a known
duty, or refuse to comply with the
requirements of the law, after being
appraised as to what the law is. should,
of course. be punished after being le-
gally convict d in a court, of law; but
for harpies to sneak around to take
advantage of the ignorance of steam
boatmen or the neglect Of INSPECTORS
or collectors of customs, that they
may pocket the. fees of the informer,
is so nearly allied to stealing, that it
inspires the scorn and contempt of
all honorable men. We are glad to
learn that some of these cormorants
are likely to be made disgorge some
of their ill-gotten gains 3a 3ai /

A lad of eleven years, who had
doubtless been trained up to think it
moral duty to abuse 'nigger, ;"
was presented on charge of having
struck a negro boy on the head with
half brick. From the testimony,
it appears that the act was one of
pure eussedness," the negro not
having given the slightest provoca-
ton, but was beset, while passing
quietly along, by three or four small
boys, al Of whom threwsat him, but
only the one presented struck
him. The Recorder, after an
earnest moral lecture, in which he
expressed his deep regret at being
called upon to punish boy CT such
tender years, for a crime of such In
humanity, fined him 81, with So %
costs. and let him go on his own
recognizance until Friday, at which
time he is to return and bring his
father with him to fix the matter up.
Philip Hamburger dropped in to-

H In his report upon the condition
of South Carolina, Gen. Sickles relates
that in one case where freedman was
murdered, the two men who killed him,
sat upon the coroner's jury, and united
in the verdict that s'tbe deceased came
to his death by causes unknown"
The above, it is true, is but an isolated
case, and we would not give it as an
expression of the general sentiment of
the Southern people. Yet it is none
the less true, that such outrages are
altogether too frequent in the South,
and too often winked at by the officers
of the law. If they would have us be-
lieye them earnest in their oft repeated
declaration of their willingness to ac
cord to the freedman the full protection
of the law, they must manifest little
more zeal in prosecuting and furnishing
the perpetrators of these foul outrages.
