from Vicksburg states that another disas-
trous confagration broke out at r. M. In
Waltemyer's confectionery store, on China

joining buildings on Washington and Null

The Washington Hotel very narrowly es-
capped. The origin Of the fire is no doubt
from incendiarics, as an attempt was made
to FIRE the dwelling on Crawford street
about daylight.

in the fourth district, involving q loss of
s25, 900, mostly insured.

SOUTHERN OFFiCE-HoLDERs STILL RULED
OUT learn that the decision of the Su-
preme Court in the test oath cases has re-
ceived very narrow construction at the
Treasury. 1t is, for the present at least,
held by heads Of bureaus in that depart
ment that the decision does not embrace
officers Of the Government, and that no
salaries can be drawn by officials who have
Been unable to take the oath prescribed by
the act of July rs, 1862. From this it
would seem that it is thought in some quar-
tiers that, however plainly the reasoning OF
the court might apply to other than the very
cases before it, the special matter decided
only should be considered as settled.
Doubtless, this question will receive the
early consideration Of the Attorney Gene
raj, when, it is to be hoped, a different
ruling will be uniformly adopted. The Co.
vernment itself is evidently sufferer from
the limited number of persons, under ex-
listing circumstances, from among whom
they are compelled to choose the officers
connected with the revenue and postal sys-
TENS in the southern Washington
letter in Baltimore Gazette.

PRICES OF BREADsTUrFs.-Every re-
marks upon the price of bread, and its
poor quality. Early last week flour ar
rived in large quantities-more than 5000
barrels were received in one day from New
Orleans by sea. Wheat has sympathized
closely with -four, and the wholesale de-
cline is ten cents per bushel on all descrip-
tions. Receipts at Milwaukee and Chi
cago, also, are increasing, though mode
rate, and the shipments thence eastward
are not liberal. Prices decline in western
markets in sympathy with this, and private
advices speak of much less confidence in
the realization of the extreme views en-
tertained in December. Corn, also, is
dull, Notwithstanding margin in favor OF
shipments to Liverpool. We nowhere see
in the retail market any evidence OF the
fall in the wholesale markets Of the coun-
try.-Ne,o York Express.
