The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1872-11-22

FRoM CeyIon we have news of dis
astrous floods, unprecedented in
height and violence since 1884. The
CeyLon Observer says that the water
"came rushing down like a wall,
soon filed the bed of the
Kalany (the old salt en-
bankment at it's mouth, the south
west wind blowing on a lee shore,
the waves and the tide all cOnspiring
against it's rapid egress in the seq, )
and overfowed the banks until the
whole country around was converted
into a vast lake, and boats were ply
log in some of the streets of Colom-
bo (the highest point in tue city be-
ing only seventy-five feet above sea
level, } while close by boats were nav
igating not only amidst but over the
ruins of human dwellings" The
loss of life, 1t adds, has not been
great

1l:30.

The fire is progressing towards
Broad street, having swept both
sides of Summer street to High street
and Purchase street. Goods are be-
ing removed from stores in every
direction in the vicinity of the fire.
Fire engines have been telegraphed
for from Providence, Worcester and
other places.

this great centre of the shoe and
leather business.
2:30 A. M.-BUILDINGs BLOWN. UP.
Two buildings have Just been
blown up at the qouth corner of
Devonshire and Milk streets, which,
it is hoped, will stay the progress of
the fire towards State street and save
the new unfinished post Office build
ing. The streets leading to the fire
are fenced in with ropes, and are in
care of strong detachments of police
who have strict instructions to per
nit no one to pass tue barriers on
any pratence. Thus it is impossible
to obtain more than a general ac-
count of the progress of the flames.
Both sides of Hawley street, and
also the Morton place are now
on fire. The fire on Franklin street
has not reached Washington street
3 A. N.
The steam fire engines have reach
ed here from Worcester. They were
pushed through by rail, distance
of A miles in Is minutes. At the
present moment the fire has not ex-
tended south beyond Summer street,
near the foot Of which tho Hartford
and Erie railroad depot was located,
but the flames continue to rage
fiercely.
BIO A. M.-TERRIFICALLY SUBLIME.
Lurid columns of flames and
smoke, detonations caused by the
blowing up of buildings and the
crushing and falling of walls makes
the scene grand and terrific. Nearly
the whole population appears to be
on the streets and the house tops
watching the confagration. The
fire has extended to Washington
street on the south and north cor
ners. Loud reports are just heard
and probably other buildings are
being blown up.
3:15 A. NJ.
The fire did not reach the Hartford
and Ere Railroad depot. The
whole of Pearl street Is in ruins
Several buildings on Washington
street, including Macculler and Will
liams are burned. The heat is so
intense that the fremen cannot
fight it successfully. The North,
National and Reserve Banks are
buried.
\. NJ.
It is impossible at this time to
give an approximation Of the losses
or even a correct statement of the
devastation. The fte is burning
as fercely as ever and will probably
cross Milk street towards State
street.
Boston, Nov. 10, 12:I5 P. M
The telegraph office has been re,
moved to Providence Depot. The
building adioinings the post Office
are now on FIRE. The fire is raging
over a space of several squares.
12:35 P. NJ.
Toe whole city is wild with excite
ment over the terrible devastation.
BosToN, Nov. 10, 1 2. Mt is
now estimated that the loss will
reach the enormous figure of two
hundred and fifty millions.
BosroN, Nov. 10. 1 A. M-The fire
is approaching Fanuel Hall and
Quincy Marke', and 1t is feared bOti
will be destroyed.

The fire is now believed to be under

STOCKS.

A sad catastrophe has taken place,
and ruin and bankruptcy in many,
very many instances, have been the
result. The unprecedented excite
ment in mining stocks had carried
business men of nearly every class
away with an irresistible infatuation,
and thousands of dollars which were
absolutely necessary to float legiti-
mate trade, were blindly invested in
stocks in the vain hope of achieving
rapid fortunes. The consequence is,
a large number of those who specu-
lated to any considerable extent, are
ruined and penniless, while a few
unscrupulous individuals have real
lied large fortunes out of their cred
ulity. Why men will risk their last
dollar in such ii ~precarious and I'M
certain traffic, with the light of past
bitter experience to guide them, it
seems difficult to determine; but
they will do it, and those who have
been victimized in the present case,
will be as eager as ever to embark to
the extent of their means in the first
mining excitement that springs mp.
1t is one of the peculiar phases of
western life.

The New York Express says IN
1868, when Grant was nominated, the
Republican Convention placed be-
meath the portrait of their candidate
the legend, Match him." The In
dependent Liberal Republicans at
Cincinnati have taken up the chal-
lenge, aud against a life of sometimes
brilliant military. but often disrepu-
table civil adventure, they matched
a life of honest andearnest~ endeavor;
against the spirit Of persecution the
spirit of forgiveness; against corrup-
ton honesty; in a word, against
Ulysses S. Grant they matched Hor
ace Greeley. Neither of them may
be of the very best material to make
a tirst-class President, but on the
score of fitness. who that is Just will
not say that Greeley is by far the
better man of the two? Politics are
sopractical in their results, that when
it comes to an election, the question
is not alwaysthe bestyou would like,
but the best you can get.

in favor of Greeley, and his election

London exchanges seem TO besome-
what excited and pleased at the visit
of Nellie Grant to the metropolis of
England. They record her visits and
moves with great precision, and it al
most leads one to imagine that such
a matrimonial union as the one pro-
posed some months since would not
be such a very unlikely affair after
all. 4 contemporary says: The
presence of Miss Grant affords Queen
Victoria an excellent opportunity for
a coup detat, and if her advisers be
the able. crafty men they are sup
posed to be, they will not allow the
chance to slip away" This is ran

A NasnlnSton dlspatch, OF a late
date, says:
Colonel Forney arrived here on Sat

the President on the political situation.
He found Grant disposed to look on
the nomination of Greeley Is a joke.
and found thai he did not believe, that
il Endorsed by the Baltimore Conven-
ton, he would stand chance ofelec-
ton. Grants idea was that in such an
event the Philadelphia nominee would
get as MANY Democratic votes a. Gree
ley would Republican votes. Colonel
Forney replied that his ExceIlency
was mistaken, and said that if Greeley
MAS nominated at Baltimore. the De-
mocratlc party would support him.
