Terrible FIre--Many Lives Lost.


iOn Tuesday night, at about II o'clock
fire broke out in the Fifth Avenue hotel in
New York. The fire was discovered by
one of the guests on the second floor, in
the stairway and elevator leading from the
laundry to the servants apartments in the
top of the building on the Twenty third
street side. A large steam pipe, nearly five
inches in diameter, for heating purposes,
had rendered the woodwork so inflamable
that it fell an easy prey 10 the fire and as
if through funnel the flames shot with
astonishing rapidity to the servants de-
partment on the seventh floor. There are
400 assistants of all kinds in the hotel, and
Of these fully 100 are women. The alarm
was Immediately given, and the appliances
for extinguishing the flames, with which
the hotel was well provided, were brought
into use, but the efforts of the employees
were Of no avail in checking the flames.
After some delay the alarm was given, and
the Fire Department were soon on the
ground. In the meantime the panic
stricken guests had been aroused and
thronged the halls, while from the servants
apartments, now cut off by the flames, the
most agonizing shrieks came. To the eff
forts of the firemen the fire soon sue
cumbed.
AS soon as it was possible the flremen
made their way into the servants apart
ments, where most shocking sight

there were seen in various postures, and
horribly disfgured and distorted by the
flames, the bodies of eleven girls. AS first
reported the number was much larger,
even as high as twenty-five, but thus far,
only eleven bodies have been found and
taken to the Morgue. Some of the bodies
were found lying in the beds, but major
ity were lying on the floors, near the doors
and windows, which latter were covered
with strong network of heavy wire,
which prevented the escape of those who
sought egress in this direction. So strong
were these barriers that considerable effort
on the part of the iiremen was necessary
for their removal. Two of the bodies were
locked in each others embrace, and theil
flesh had been literally roasted. Margaret
Pagan, one of the hotel servants, was,
however, found terribly burned about the
head and body in her bedroom, adjoining
the elevator on the top floor OF the build
ing. There were six hundred and fifty
guests in the house, none of whom were
injured. Eleven bodies have SO far beer
removed from the ruins, all of them being
the bodies of women. 1t is feared that
more yet remained to be discovered The
loss to the hotel is about $15O,OO0.

Terrific Storm.

London, December GA terrific westerly
gale, causing great destruction to property
of all descriptions, prevailed yesterday
throughout England. The telegraph wires
were Frustrated, and many buildings were
demolished and others damaged. In this
city large number of pedestrians were
dashed to the ground by the violence of the
hurricane. The street lamps and advertis-
ing boards were blown down and many
persons were injured by the flying debris
Dispatches from the seaport towns report
numerous marine disasters. Eight ships
were blown ashore near the harbor of Ply
mouth. The telegraph wires in the north
of England, which were deranged by the
storm, are not yet in working ORDER
Dispatches from all other sections of the
country bring intelligence of great destruc-
tion of property. The gale was as severe
in Wales and Ireland as in England, and
was accompanied by lightning and rain.
Many towns were flooded, and several ves-
sells are ashore in Cork harbor. The dam
age to property in that city is very great
Many buildings were unroofed and trees
blown down. Three pinnacles of the tower
of st. Thomas Church, in Exeter, Devon
shire, were blown down while the congre-
CATION was at worship, and falling on the
roof, crushed through into the body of the
church. The congregation were seized
with panic at the first intimation of dan
ger, and rushed from the building. None
were killed, and their escape is regarded as
miraculous. The ship Leborna, from Sun
derland, for New York, went ashore and
was wrecked off Lowestoft, and the crew
barely escaped. Many of the huts used by
the troops at Aldershot were destroyed
At Oxford the chapel of oriel College, Ok
ford University, was badly damaged, and
the freight depot Of the Great Western
Railway was entirely demolished.
London, Dec, 12-Intelligence of ma
rine disaster, attended with appalling loss
of life, has just reached this city. The ship
Franklin, which sailed from Hamburg sew
eral days agofo San Francisco, with large
number Of emigrants ON board, stranded on
the coast ofVheland, An island of the Meth
erlands, in the North Sea, and went to
pieces. Eighty persons are known to have
persisted.

The Herald's Washington special, states
that the Credit Mobilier investigation will
show that several congressman for time
accepted enormous dividends from that
concern, which they devoted to charitable
and political purposes; but they will at
tempt to show that they were not identified
with the management of the concern, or
with legislation for it. Attempts are being
made to hush up the investigation, but it
is expected that startling developments
will be made from an unexpected quarter.

aetrenchrnent and Reform,

The House Committee on the Judiciary,
ON Friday, agreed to report bill increas-
ing the salary Of the President of the Uni
ted States, on and after March 4th, from
twenty-five thousand dollars to fifty thou
sand dollars per annum. The increase is
on the ground of augmented expenses of
maintaining the position of President since
the passage of the act fixing the present
salary. The passage of such law at this
time would no doubt be violation of the
spirit, il not Of the letter of Art. H. Sec. Z

JOHN J. PATTERSON, formerly of Juniata
county has been elected U. s. Senator
from the State of South Carolina.
A despatch to the N. Y. World says,
that Mr.. Patterson, was the next day ar
rested for bribery, on the afiidavits of
eleven members of the legislature. He
was taken before a justice, but crowd of
his friends created disturbance, and Pat
terson escaped in the confusion. He was
again arrested in the evening and commit
ted TO Jail for twelve hours for contempt,
but Immediately released on hG6eas corpus.
A later despatch says that the above re-
port is not correct He was arrested by
Justice Kirk on affidavit of Assemblyman
Lilley, and Immediately discharged on
bail, since which Justice Kirk has been
removed by a unanimous vote OF the Leg
islature, and Assemblyman Lillcy has
disappeared in consequence Of a warrant
being out against him for perjury.
As matters now stand, 1t seems that Pat
terson has actually defeated the darkey
who was his opponent.
