SPLENDID CARs.--We were shown on Mon
day two cars built by the P. w. & B. R. r. Com
pany at their shops in this city. These cars are
intended for the usual travel of the road, and were
the last Two built under the superintendent of
Mr.. T. W. Bowers, who has left the car shop to
go into business at FELTON,.
They are fitted up in splendid style, and are
five feet longer than ordinary cars and have but
the usual number of seats, thus avoiding the
usual cramping of the limbs.
The seats have lower backs and are covered
with elegant velvet plush. The door and wood
work are of solid black walnut, and the pannels
are of birds eye maple and fine walnut veneering.
The roof Is elegantly painted in fresco painting
on canvass. Altogether these cars are of the
most beautiful and comfortable ever put on the
road and we learn that the Company is building
others like them

The PENsIoSs.-Si the 4th of March last.
a large number of pensioners NEEDY widows and
MANNED soldiers, have been anxiously waiting for
the little pittance the government pays them. The
semi-annual payments were due and ought to
have been promptly paid the first week in March
last, but up to this hour none have been paid. In
one or two instances, the sick widow has looked
in vain for her pittance until death sealed her lips,
and she can no longer ask her government to
give her that which will feed and clothe her faith
crless--now worse than orphan children. In one
instance pensioner has been compelled to beg
the money to bury her dead child.
There is something sadly out Of joint some
where, and we think If the authorities were COM
PEELED to receive the importunate calls of the hum
dreds of pensioners who almost daily throng the
office of our nslghbor, W.B.wiggins. they would
from sheer WEAKNESS be compelled to furnish the
funds.
1t seems that the present very worthy Pension
Agent at Dover, David f. Burton Esq, who was
the original agent for this State and superseded
w. Walker Esq, has not as yet been supplied
with the requisite funds for paying pensions.
Why, we know not, but we must be permitted to
say that IL Is q crying sin and On outrageous
shame that the men and the widows of the men
who fought ard laid down their lives for the life
of the nation, should be compelled to suffer thus.
Before President johnson removed MIR. Burton
to give place to my Policy man, pensioners
were never compelled to wait and the pension
agency in this State was model of promptness.
Mr. Burton was re-appointed because the Senate
would not confirm Mr.. Walker and had conf

Destructive Fire I'm the Second ward.
About eight o clock Monday evening fire broke
out In stable belonging to Mr.. Horn, carriage
manufacturer in yard on Walnut street, below
Second The stable was filled with carriage stuff
such as wheel rims, &C.. and of course burned
rapidly, and soon spread to the adjoining build
ings.
From Horns carriage shop In Walnut street.
just above Front to Second street, and along
Second TO Hirzel's gun and machinery shop were
quite number Of frame houses and several sta
bles while back of these houses were other sta
bles so that there was block of buildings just
at the corner Of Second and Walnut Sts., oil of
which, except two houses directly on the corner,
were of frame.
The majority of those buildings were burned
down, and those left standing were more or less
injured.
The fire started, as we have stated, in Horns
stable from there 1t quickly spread to an nd
joining stable belonging to Mrs. Stevenson, and
from thence again to two small stables on Second
street, also belonging to Mrs. Stevenson. By this
time the flames were 50 high and the heat so in
tense that large number Of buildings seemed to
catch fire all at once. frame stable belonging
to Mr. Green, carriage maker, the frame work.
shop of Mr.. Hrzel dealer in machinery, frame
house in an alley, near Horns shop, and two
frame dwellings in Walnut street, the three last
belonging to Mr.. Horn, were all ablaze at once,
and almost deied the efforts of the frcmen to ex-
tinguish the flames. All attempts to save the sta
blcs were abandoned, and the fremen turned
their attention to saving the surrounding proper
ty. The roofs of the two brick houses belonging
to Mr. j. I. Robinson were on fire again and
again.
The interior of the brick portion of Mr.. Hir-
zels building was in flames. Mr.. Horns shop, a
large four story building, caught fire repeatedly.
The roof of MIR. Bowers bakery caught fire sew
erai times. Then every few minutes while the
fire was at Its height gust OF wind would carry
the flames across Second street and the roofs OF
the buildings on the other side would catch fire.
The excitement was intense Mt such times, and
had the fire ever crossed that street 1t would have
passed entirely from under control and great
portion Of the eastern part of the city would
have been this morning II blackened pile OF ruins.
AS it was, the fremen succeeded In preventing
Its spreading and worked most noby. They were
us usual short of hose, none of them as yet hav-
Ing full complement. Besides this the steamers
could not get sufficient supply of water from
our insignificant fire plugs. Still they worked
most nobly and were most efficiently aided by a
strong stream put on from the Cornish Pumping
Engine of the p. W. Il B. r. II. Co.'S shops n

RAPID Observation-Disclosures H. L. Van
Cleye who has achieved great reputation in the
West for the rapidity of his calculations, and is
popularity known as the lightning calculator"
is now in this city for the purpose of raising
classes to whom he can give instructions in his
method of calculating. We have seen some of
the Professors calculations, and have never seen
such case and rapidity in making difficult and
tedious calculations displayed by any one else.
We are satisfied that his system is well worth
learning and that 1t cannot fail to be of immense
importance to every business man.

The Cecil Wing ventures the following
prophecy
We predict the next fundamental law Of
the State Of Maryland that goes into opera
ton will grant the right Of the elective fran
chise TO every citizen Of the State, without
respect to race, color, or previous condition,
unless he il denied that on account Of crimes
for which he has been convicted. We think
It not unlikely, from the present stir in the
Copperhead camp, that such provision
win be engrafted Into the new Constitution
which they propose to frame for Maryland;
but whether they adopt universal manhood
suffrage or not, 1t will constitute an article
in the next Constitution which takes effect
in this State.
