THE municipal election in Washington,

extraordinary excitement. SAYLES j.
BowEN CFoRNEY Republican,, present

and large portion of the colorcd voters
supported Bowen, while portion Of the
Radicals, all the Conservative Rcpubli'
cans, the Democrats and Il large number
OF the cOlOrcd voters supported EMERY.
The contest was one Of the iiCrccSt ever
known in the city, and it engendercd an
angry and virulent controversy between
the opposing parties. To such an alarm.
ing extent WINS this manifested thnt ii was
feared serious trouble and rioting would
take place ut the polls, and in order to
keep the peace, If possible, the United

the Emperor'S speech on receiving the re-
suit Of the late vote on plebiscitmn, with
the exception Of left and legitimates.
The various parties seem satisfied, each
applying u portion Of His Majesty's words
to itself All agree in affirming that no
dissolution of the legislature is intended,
and that His Majesty spoke with great
moderation and dignity. The Emperor M;
poleon's speech contains 5S2 words, and
was transmitted from Paris TO Havre in
ten minutes.
Intelligence from Portugal adds but
little to the details already given by

Letters from Tangiers state that ques'
ton which has been for long time under
discussion among diplomAtists Is on the
point OF being solved. The Emperor Of
Morocco appears 10 have made up his
mind 10 accord to the Ministers Of foreign
powers tho right Of residing near his per.

measure would be Of great advantage for
the expedition OF business, which could,
upon important occasions, be carried on

Yesterday afternoon, about O'Clock, a

OF the city. The flames were first discov-
cred in an old building in Pera street, on
the north side of Golden Horn. a strong
wind was blowing at the time, and the
fire quickly communicated to the adjoin'
ing buildings. The efforts of the firCmen
and citizens to stop the progress OF the
flames were futile, and IN few hours the
residences of English. American and Por.
tuguese Ambassadors, Consulate's room,
theatre, many churches and mosques
thousands of houses, and tue richest
stores and shops in the city, were reduced
to ashes. The loss Of life by falling walls
has been fearful. 1t is estimated that Mt
least thirty people have been killed or in
jured by this cause alone. The loss Is i'll
