GREAT FIRE4IN MEMPHIS.
A Whole Block Wrapped in Flames Rapid
Spread Of the Fire-The Streets Crowded
with People-The Loss.

MEMPHIS Tenn, Sept. 8, 1872.
The most destructive fire which has occurred
here In ten years broke out at hafpast two O'Clock
this morning, at a shOemaker's shop, a. Second
street. owing to the long drought and the COM
bustibe material Of the surrounding buildings the
flames spread 80 rapidly before the engines were
fairly at work that it was thought that the great
Chicago fire would be repeated, as within half an
hour after the fire was discovered the entire block
from Union to Monroe street was on fire.
and the air was filed with sparks which
set fire to numerous places some fully
ten blocks distant from the scene. When the fire
reached the extensive carriage works OF Bruce &
Company many Of the guests in the Peabody Hotel,
believing that that building would follow, hastily
evacuated it. The streets were crowded with
people, who were rendering valuable assistance in
removing goods. Day was breaking when Bruce's
mandatory fell with terrible crash, its huge
wall and roof smOthering the raging flames
inside, soon enabling the firemen to get control;
but southwark the flames had spread to Brackett'
livery stable, Wallace & Gbsons carriage works
and Ferris livery stable, and IN fact swept every
thing to Union street. For long time it was
feared that the Opera House, with the Post Office,
Court Rooms, &C., would be burned. The streets
were filed with the goods and inmates OF small
shops on Union street, many Of the inmates barely
escaping with their lives The total loss will not
fall far short OF $2100OO about onehalf OF which Is
covered by insurance, nearly all OF which is In
local companies

Of Last evening 1t Is generally conceded BY tho

opponents claim at the most $1,000. In the First

1853 towns and ten cities In the State will produce

idea that any such gain can be made. Among the
cities, Bangor, Portland. Bath and Lewiston are
looked upon sure to poll republican majority.
Rockland Is conceded to be democratic, and Calais,
Augusta, Belfast, saco and Blddeford are recK0ned

THE LIBERALS ARE NOWHERE.
Every endeavor Is being made to poll the fun
strength of the state vote. The eastern-bound
trains on Saturday night brought large numbers Of
voters, whose expenses to aud from their homes

made with the gubernatoral vote OF September,

the jingle Of coin IN every word Of endearment
There are few finer touches in modern comedy
than the scene in Macklin's "Man Of the
World" where Sir Pertinax MacSycophant
impresses upon his son the secret of his sue
cess in life When he was on the qsi vtve for
fortune he haunted pot the ballroom or the thea
tre-''nae, nae; ganged to the kirk" There
he found n-jawed, signing, singing old
devotee. ''Cheek by jowl'' he knelt with her.
and psalmed and groaned and won her poor
old heart Then he adds, triumphantly, II
married her in week, buried her IN month,
touched the siller, and wi full purse and
clean conscience began the world again"
Had it been story of the present day in
America he would have had long
story to tell about relatives, prison cells,
chemical tests and narrow escape
from hanging that MacSycophant never
dreamed of. It will always be called folly In
a maid of seventy entering or preparing to
enter on welded life it will never be out of
the order of things that she should die the day
after or the day before the act but with all
the comicalty Of the event it must be looked
to that injured relatives be prevented hereafter
from calling suicide or apoplexy by the, to
them, profitable name of murder.

dresses and trim parasols were once more called
into requistiOn, and the vendors of soda
water and other cooling beverages had their
time fully occupied attending upon thirsty
pleasurc-seekers. In the churches the con.
slant flirting Of fans betokened the calidity
of the atmosphere; in the parks the shadest spots
were most frequented, and "dOwn the bay'' and
cup the river" the bows Of the steamers were the
places where most passengers did congregate. AS
will be seen by the appended table ofthe thermome-
ter's range, the average heat Of the atmosphere
yesterday was nineteen degrees higher than that
Of the same date last year. This tends to show
that ruralizing for pleasure In 1872 need not be
