travel, and the other streets in the burned dis

smsd military guard Is stiil on duty. Thousands
OF people visited the ruins yesterday.
THK MOST INTERESTING LOCALITY
among the ruins yesterday. and to Which hun.
dreds were attracted by the operations there m
progress, was the rear OF the store Of Shrieye.
ITump X LOs. Beneath the sidewalk was a

HE goods were placed there after the fire Wa

THE MOST NOVEL AND INTERESTING syRvtcK
yesterday was the enc held in the Old South
Church, probably the last that viii be held there
mics Of soldiers, which had been quartered there
while guarding the city, and a few citizens, i'm
GLIDING some ladies. The interior OF the
church presented a strange scene, the floor
being strewn with the articles OF a soldiers
camp. The choir was composed of soldiers,
and a soldier presided at the organ. The ser
vices were conducted by the Rev. Drs. Manning
and Murray.
Bosron PRIDE AROUSED.
The Boston correspondent of the New York
Times writes: There has been quite a breeze
about town to day friday over the decision of
the Citizens Relief Committee yesterday that
Boston II in need OF assistance from abroad, aud
will thankfully receive contributions of money
and materials. The solid and substantial citl-
Zens denounce il as hasty and mi udiciOus action
and declare that they feel their honor and mau
hood has been touched. One OF the evening
papers, commenting on il, says: "We could
not find room TO print the Professionally OF
them from heavy losers by the tire-against this
action of the committee, which has put our citv
in false attitude before the country; one not
IN harmony with its character for home beney-
olence and financial integrity. The feeling of
dissatisfaction amount almost 20 Indignation"
The fact is, the number of people maie destl-
tute by the fire is comparatively small and most
ly working people, of whom the people OF the
city are abundantly able to take care, while the
great majority Of losers are merchants, large as
well as small, whose pride alone would prevent
them from taking penny of contributed money
from outside.
