troops on the plains are all needed; the
troops in the Southern States are still need
ed. and further reduction can be made in
the way already used and now in opera
tion, where il is safe; namely, by allowing
companies to dismiss by discharges with

stopping appointments of Second Lieuten-

continued by absorption and retirement of

say it is fuerses, hard others that 1t Is pesos,

Destructive Fire.

2i' 5A -..'''- MT. VERNON, N0Y. 30.
About one o'clock Sunday morning, No
vember 20, fire broke out in the grocery
store of John Tudor, on the southwest
corner of the Public Square of this city.
In a few minutes the whole block, consist
ing of five two story frame buildings, were
wrapped in flames and burned to the
ground. The lower stories of the build
ings were occupied by John Tudor, War
ner Terry and Porter & Danbert, as gro-
Gerry stores, and Vohl & Tudor meat shop,
and Christian Weaver's shoe shop. John
Tudor's loss is about 5000, no insurance:
Warner Terry's about $500, insured; Vohl
& Tudor about $400, no insurance; G. Wea.
yer, including the building. about S25OO,
the building insured for 81 200; Porter &
Danbert about $780, insured. The building
occupied by Vohl & Tudor was owned by
Samuel Israel, and valued at about $4,000,
on which there was no insurance. At one
time the splendid new building of A.Wolff
was in great danger of destruction, but es-
capped with a slight damage. The build
ings destroyed were old frames, valued at
about 12,000, upon which there was no
insurance, except 81, 200 on the property
owned by G. Weaver. The upper stories Of
the buildings burnt, were occupied by four
or five families as residences. .-gA

statement which, originating in
the New Orleans TIMES, would in-
evitably involve US in libel suit.
Having several Of such suits now
on hand we should not deem III
safe to reproduce this story except
from high Radical authority.
The statement we refer To IS To
the effect that our very distin-
guished delegation from this State
to the great Radical Pow-woW was
bought for Fenton, the New York
candidate for Vice Presidency, for
the sum 81 one Thousand dollars I!
The assertion Of the Copsnaerc5ql il
broad and indiscriminate. lis r56
that certain delegates were bought.
but that the whole body Of them
were landed over in gross to the
purse proud New Workers, for d
sum less than-t that for which Judas
sold our Saviour, Seeing that the
consideration Id the one case was
greenbacks and ia the other silver.
TT might be regarded as imper-
tinent in us to attempt a defence
OF these gentlemen from So grave
an accusation, but we, neverthe
less, cannot fail to protest against
the idea that the Collector Of this
port, who, few weeks ago, was So.
sturdy a defender Of the President,
and who handles SO many millions
ia a department where everything
is conducted SO openly and with
such nice regard for the strictest
rules Of Official honesty and pro-
priety that our United States
Marshal, whose financial antece-
dents have been So entirely be-
yond Teproach and criticism that

ton that SO earnest b patriot and
truthful a historian as Shelley J,
that band, embracing men of
their exalted characters, should be-
bid off for SO insignificant d sum
as one thousand dollars, is utterly
improbable, preposterous and out
rageously calumnious. Indeed, the
statement involves q gross calumnY
upon our State, that her honored
