AT hAlfpast one o'clock this morning
Gre broke out in the frame residence
Of Louis Schmook, on the corner Of
Clay street and Rayburn avenue. The
family we're In bed at the time, and
barely escaped with their lives. The
buildings frame one-and the furni-
ture we're entirely destroyed. Mr.
Schmook, who is a teacher OF music,
lost a valuable piano, and two others in
course Of repair we're also destroyed.
The loss is estimated at between three
and four thousand dollars. No insur-
ance. The ERE is believed 10 have been
the work OF an ineendiary. In this por-
ton Of the city there are no public els
terms, and the engines had much diff
Guilty in reaching the scene. Mr.. Tom
Nagle. who resides near by, deserves
credit for tearing down his fence and
having his cistern ready for the engines
by the time they arrived. This thought
fulness on his part preserved the adjoin-
ing premises OF Mr.. Pendergast from
destruction, which property caught fire
several times.

friends will hear with sincere grief the an.
nouncement of the death Of DR.. R. s. j.
PEBBLES, one Of Richmond's most accom-
pli>hed physicians and useful citizens. The
sad event though distressing is not, however,
entirely unexpected, for the deceased had
been for months p.st IN delicate health. and
bis friends have long feared that his death
was near at hand. - .a--.t,
DIR. PEBBLES was a gentleman ofsgreat
natural mental endowments, and Of the
highest culture. During the war he was
gallant soldier of the South. and fought for
Confederate independence at sacrifice
which few would have made from patriotic
impulses alone. He was for several
years member of the Board Of
Health of this city, and contributed
not little towards raising it to its present
efficiency, resignips only when ill-heaith In
terfered with the discharge Of his duties
He was also professor In the Medical Col
lege of Virginia, and in that capacity dis.
PLAYED to great advantage bis remarkable
talents. All who came in contact with him
were Impressed WITH bis dignifed atfabiilty
and courtly grace; and no man ever made
aud kept more friends. 80.
