in the pot house at the Window Glass

tipguished by the employees before any
considerable damage was done. The
alarm was promptly sounded from the
Vigilant house, and the Vigilant was
promptly ont and at the fire, but did not
make any connection, as 1t was under
control. From the time the first alarm
was sounded until the Atlantic bell took
1t up fully twenty minutes elapsed. EY.
cry fire that occurs makes 1t more evi.
dent that some, better and quicker system

THE UPRIGHT PIANo.-We noticed
yesterday another invoice Of aein,oay Pi.
amos being received by Messrs. Adams s.
Lucas, 1903 Market street. It includes
two beautiful Uprights.
The Upright Piano is, from its small,
compact form, and handsome exterior,
especially suited to the boudoir, reception
room, and the parlor Of any house, where
a Grand or Square Piano could not be
placed.
Messrs. Steinway s. Sons have, after
long and earnest study and experiments,
succeeded in producing Upright Piano.
tortes, which are the most perfect instru-
ments Of their class ever constructed. The
volume Of tone is fully equal 10 any OF
Steinwsy's best Square Grand Pianos,
while the quality is Of the most exquisite
musical character-pure, sympathetic,
and in the highest degree pliable. The
durability Of these new Upright Pianos,
and their capacity for standing in tone, is
unparalleled in the history Of piano making,
and even greater than that OF the best
Grand or Square Pianos.
Too much cannot DO said in favor of
these instruments; in fact, they must be
seen and heard to be appreciated. .
An immense demand has already
sprung up for these instruments, which
are rapidly becoming the American Home
Pianos Of the future. We advise our read
ers to call on Messrs. Adams & Lucas and
examine these Instruments; also their
large aud elegant stock Of Organs and
Pianos Of various styles and makers.

then started with one lile.boat and one
yawl lowed astern. He succeeded in
dropping the yawl along side the
schooner; four men jumped from the
rigging into the boat, greeted by cheers of
spectators. The next moment the yawl
plunged under the schooner, and the boat
then rolled over. Three OF the sailors
again succeeded in reaching the rigging,
the other was seen for moment when
an immense breaker swept the poor fell
low away. The tug came into port and
righted the boats, and again started to the
relief of the men. Again the boat got to
the vessels side, but swamped before the
men could leave the rigging. Everything
possible will be done to save the uniortu-
