The Washington correspondents
are busiiy picking up every scrap
of information they can gather in
regard to tie Forthcoming message
of the President. Much of their
statements IS no doubt mere rnmor
OF heresaF, but long practice in the
art 0f guessing has given these
gentlemen q certain sort Of skill
intleir profession, which frequently
enables then. to hit near the truth.
One Of them says lit il understood
that one of the points of the forth
coming message of the President
in relation To the. finances of the
country, he viii suggest to Com
gfess tie desirability Of adopting
such measures as win insure d
speedy resumption of specie pay
ment. AS has previously been
stated il these dispatches, the f.
nancial question will be the lead
ing feature of the Presidents sug-
gestion to Congress. His theory
Of dealing with the great financial
burden now weighing upon the
government is simple and conpre-
hensiye. and il carried ont by wise
Legislation, year hence will wit
uess the practical operation of the
system, giving the debt a more
solid basis and tile industries OF
the country relieved from the I'M
certainties and fluctuations which
are continually destroying value" "
The New York Herald, which
from it's long personal support Of
Gen. Grant IS likely to be well
posted, says editorially: eve ex-
pect that the forthcoming first an
nual message of President Grant
to Congress viii be model in it's
brevity and its practical recon-
mendations touching our domestic
and foreign affairs. Among other
things, we shall be surprised if it
shall fail to satisfy the country on
these subjects we expect to get
some very interesting facts and
decisive propositions" T* .@

Between twelve and one o'clock at

Of Galveston at the dry goods

Of Strand and fremont streets,
and soon spread to adjacent b1ild-

blowing at the time, and the FIRE
soon spread to adjacent blocks.
The sun arose next morning on
the ruins Of seven entire blocks,
which, the day before presented

commerce. We are informed that
only five houses out Of the seven
squares were saved. The loss is
estimated at one and q half mil

Philadelphia is much exercised
because the students az Pennsyl-
vania College Missed, annoyed and
insulted some fifty ladies' who at
tended a clinic. Not only were
they insulted in the amphitheatre.
but they were followed on the
street. The war WAKES hot, some
insisting that the male studen' .
were wrong, and others, that thew
were right. The young gentlemen
put in q rather ludicrous excuse.
They say that it offends their
modesty to see operations per-
formed in the presence of ladiss.

selves to the undertaking. How.
