Destructive Fire.

Boston, Feb. 5. The Adelphi Theatre, of
which John Stetson is lessee, but recently
occupied by John Halls burlesque company,
was totally destroyed by fire, which broke
out about midnight, Saturday. 1t is supposed
the fire caught in a work room of the rear
basement. Most of the wardrobe of the COM
pany who performed on Saturday evening,
was burned. The building was owned by
Frank Andrews. Total loss estimated at $780,
600; mostly insured. The hotel adjoining,
kept by VIM. ID. Park, was damaged by fire
and water to the extent of $50, 900; insured.
A high wind and intense cold-thermometer,
six degrees below-created fears of more
disastrous condagl at on, which the heroic
exertions of the Fl en- n prevented.
At later hour two more fires broke out.
One in dwell ng on West Concord street,
and the other on Tileston's Wharf. Both
were extinguished with small loss.
The weather to-day was the coolest and
most clustering of the season.

ice Cutting and Housing.

A day or two since we took flying trip to
| the Ice House of Messrs. Rich and Lombard
Of Farmingdale, for the purpose of seeing and
| learning the nsodas operandi of ice harvesting.
Theirs is a model ice house, 225 feet long,
10 feet wide and so feet high, of between eleven
| and twelve thousand tons capacity, which was
Then nearly filled with nice, thick, clear ice,
varying from II to 20 inches in thickness.
What they call "feld" is staked out, the
now scraped off with large scrapers made for
the purpose. 1t is then marked off into
squares IL inches wide and three feet long.
This is all done by horses, first blowing
traight groove an inch or two deep, then
other grooves, which are readily made straight
and the right distance apart, by a guide or
brace extending from the plow or marker over
into the groove last made. After the "feld'
is marked ,'they then plow or cut down these
grooves to the depth of eight or ten inches
with plows, which are made with straight
BEAM and common handles. In the beams
running the whole length of the same are
fastened from five to eight grooves or blades
varying from c to l inches in length in the
different plows. They then, the length of
every five or six cakes. saw in the width of
two cakes, which are then with ''cleavers"
broken off into large cakes, containing ten or
twelve common cakes. These are flowed"
through canals to the foot of the slip near the
ice house, and there split or broken apart into
the smaller cakes. The slip from the ice
house extends down into the water, over and
under which revolves a double endless
chain belt carried by steam power. These
chains some four feet apart are connected to-
gether with logs or bars every eight or ten
feet apart. A couple Of men stand at the foot
of the slip with ice picks pushing up the cakes
Of ice which arc caught by the logs and made
to move one after another up the slip into the
ice house where it is slowed away. The en-
CINE used at this place is 10 horse power.
They had here some twenty men and four or
five horses 10 work. The cake of ice weighs
from three to six hundred pounds according
to its thickness. One acres surface of ice
will upon an average harvest about 1000 tons
of ice. The common wages of the field
hands is $3.50 per day, of the "stowers" in
the houses. 81. Ice well housed will keep
for several years. so if there is no sale one
year. it may be kept until there is demand
for it, NJ

Omce-HOlding Interference.

A special to the New York Times defends
the administration from the charge of in
reference in State politics:
WASHINGTON, September 22.-In the con-
test for the gubernatorial nomination before
the Republican convention of Massachu-
sets, 1t has been freely asserted that the
President and some Of the members of his
cabinet were secretly favorlng the nomina-
ton OF General Butler, and that the federal
officers in the State have been quietly in
structed likewise. Information in the DOS
session OF our correspondent enables him to
say that such reports are utterly devoid of
truth. Neither the President nor any mem.
Der OF the Cabinet has expressed any such
preference, and SO far as the President and
DIR boutwell, are concerned, both have
scrupnlously abstained from any expression
or action inconsistent with entire neutrality
IN the matter. Whatever may be their per-
sonal preferences, ami it is we'll know n that
the Presidents would not be General Butler.
there has been no intimation on their mart
either with any government official in Mas
sachusetts, or with any unofficial person
there or elsewere, which could he construed
as expressing desire for the defeat of one
candidate, or the choice of another. The
government officers in Massachusetts have
been left free to exercise their own prefer.
cnces without superior dictation. 1t ia safe
to add that the wisdom of such a course IN
the part of the administration ia ycrv an
parent in this case, and there is the best Of
reason for believing that it will he followed
in other States as we'll.
