DAsTARDLY OUTRAGE.-On Friday
night trio of negro rascals assaulted
in most cowardly manner Mr., Michael
Henry, at his residence on Wood street.
1t seems that he had retired and hear
ing a noise at the fronts door went
down stairs armed with a pistol and
opened it, whereupon the three ruff
fans assaulted him with bricks and
stones. Fortunately he was not struck,
as be quickly fell back on the inside OF
the house. The rascals then commence
ed furious bombardment upon the
Misunderstanding in the doors and
windows. This naturally drew shot
from Mr.. Henry who, after one or two
rounds, put them to flight. The next
morning blood was discovered on the
ground. which is pretty good evidence
that the shots took effect on one or
more of them. Strange to say, tie
desperadoes escaped both detection and
apprehension. Where were the poll ce?
Echo answers-where?

THE OPERA HoUsE.-The Opera
House will be opened tonight by that
Prince OF Managers, II. Clay Ford. who
brings with him a company, of which
the impartial, reliable, and talented re-
porters of the Richmond press speak in
highest terms of commentator. The
elite and fashion of Norfolk have,
doubtless, treat in store for the next
four nights-the length of Mr.. Ford's
engagement in this city. 1t is not ne
cessary for the ladies to send out scouts
this time, TO reconnoitre and ascertain
the nature of the entertainments, as they
did, fortunately, when Whitman made
his debut. Ford is too well skilled IN
the business, aud has too much at stake
to attempt to deceive the people, as
Whitman did, with a side-show variety
troupe. raked from the dens of Cloths
am.
He advertises the young, blooming,
piquant Chapman Sisters, and the IN
imitable comedian &. B. Bishop-one
of Norfolk's greatest favorites-and he
will produce them; not deceive and
swindle the people as Whitman endea-
vored to do by sensation promises TO
present stars, whose twinkle we failed
to see.
Tonight will be presented F1xion,
or the Man at the Wheel" This popular
production was successfully presented
in Newly rk for four consecutive months
aud has attracted, wherever presented
large and fashionable audiences. The
company will perform in this city only
four nights, and flour people miss the
rare opportunity thus offered it will be
their own fault
We hope that the agent has not so
far forgotten his interest by failing to
charter the ferry boat for the Ports
mouth people, VIII, like to see fine act
ing.

LARGE AND DESTRUCTIVE CoNFLAa-
ATIoN.--On Sunday morning about
o'clock a large and destructive fire. sup
posed to be the work of an incendiary.
was discovered by the Waterman in the
employ of Messrs. Peters & Reed Issuing
from the large brick warehouse jointly
owned by Myer Myers and w. Hardy,
of Norfolk. The Waterman states that
the flames, when he first saw them were
coming from Mr.. Myer Myers end, in
which G. w. Brung & Co. had about
200 bales of hay, which we think were
insured. The alarm was promptly re-
sponded to by our energetic fremen and
citizens generally. The intensity of
the heat and the proximity of the mil,
lions of slaves in the yard, also the
shocks in the adjoining end, (Mr. Har-
dy's,) owned by Mr.. Charles Reed,
amounting to / 100 white oak, with
heads; also 1900 red oak, besides other
things, made it an impossibility to save
them. They were all covered by insur-
ance in the International Company of
New York. At one time great danger
was apprehended that the whole yard,
filled as it was with slaves, Shingles
and lumber, would be consumed.
AT this juncture the Hope steamer,
from Norfolk, arrived, and now, with
the assistance of that noble compony,
together with our own companies, the
fire was kept from spreading.
Among those who are losers are, j.
h. Langley, about 5000 slaves, no in
surance; j. Fl. Johnson, about 10 900
slaves; G. Reid, we hardly know what
number he lost, but he was insured in
Deming's office, We understand the
building was insured, to what amount
we did not ascertain. We hope to see
the rubbish soon cleared away, and to
hear the noise Of busy workmen rect
ing new warehouse in its place.
We add that the fire possibly might
have occurred by the combustion of the
hay, as Instances are known where ships
have been destroyed by fire, at sea,
caused by the combustion of hay.
The Virginia engine played upo the
smoking ruins all day, up to between
two and three o'clock, when the Chief
Engineer called for assistance once more
from the gallant Hope Company, OF
Norfolk, which was promptly and cheer
fully responded to by its brave mem
bers. They reached the scene about
three o'clock, and relieved the Virginia
by soon getting stream on the unsub-
dued fire, and kept it from spreading to
the large quantity of timber and slaves
that were in danger.
We are requested to tender to this
the thanks of our citizens for
their timely and efficient services, both
when the fire first broke out, and after
wards for the relief of the wearied fire.
men of the Virginia. When the Hope
returned to Norfolk in the afternoon the
walls had all tumbled down and the
danger was believed to be over.
