ENLARGEMENT.

At last, after the consumption OF good
deal of time in getting "a good ready" we are
enabled to present the FREE TRADER to our
readers in an enlarged and improved form.
The FREE TRADER is not only enlarged and
printed on new type, but on a new Steam
Press by Steam Power. In the additions we
have been making to our printing establish
ment in the last few months we have nearly
doubled our material and capacity to do job
work well, cheaplyand promptly, Running
all our presses by steam, having abundance
of material and a strong and reliable corps Of
first-class workmen, we claim to be able to do
job work not only in Il style equal to the best
Chicago offices, but at less than Chicago
prices
1t is possible, in the these additions and eX-
tensions, we may be II trihc ahead of the i'm
mediate wants of the place. but we have con
fidcncc in the future growth and extension of
our city, and that before the year is out all of
our steam presses will have enough to do to
keep them on the "ful Jump"

1t seems ungracious to alludc TO the latest
developments in the case of Schuyler ColfaX.
1t is like speaking i'll of the dead, and Il
breach of the Latin injunction, De m0rtuiS
Mill HtsiJlonUm." Most of the rural radical
papers, and among them conspicuously the
Ottawa Rtpublicdn, have announced so fire.
qucntly and conidentially that ColfaX has
fully vindicaied himself" that in the light Of
the developments since these papers got the
news, it is almost cruel to undcccive them.
After Colfax had denied in his South Bend
speech that he had ever received single
Credit Moblicr share of Cakes Ames, are 100
or one per cent. dividend on such share, and
then, before the Poland committee, admitted
that he had received 90 shares from Cakes
Amcs, and at least $14G3 dividends on them,
it was hard enough to ask the rural press to
reconcile these opposite statements and pro
nounce him fully indicated" But since to
their own satisfaction they had done this, it is
little less than an outrage to ask them TO clear
up this last lie in which ColfaX has been
caught.
Before the Poland committee, in attempting
to explain the very crooked and questionable
transaction with Nesbt, by which he rcceiv.
ed in such strict confidence that mysterious
$1,000 grcCnbaCk, and afterwards two or three
$1,000 drafts, ColfaX solcmnly declared that
for all these largesscs he had done Ncsbit nc
other service than to procure him tickets tC
the inauguration ball, or some such trihe
But now it appears that Coltax, contrary tc
law, and in breach Of his oath of Office, had
actually prepared an argument in favor OF
a, the renewal Of fat contract he had with tho
post Office department, and that the contract
was. upon this argument, extended, and thai
the argument, with the name of Colfax ut
tached to it, is still on file in the post office
department. The "smilcr has made a DIES
pcrate attempt also to explain away these ugly
facts, and has got the Postmaster-General tC
certify for him, but both utterly fail to change
the facts, or to wipe out that ugly argument

Two Grant Fires,

Boston was visited, on Friday of last week,
by another serious fire, accompanied with the
loss of several lives. A large five story build
ING on the corner of Hanover and Blackstone
streets, occupied by G. A. Sammct as manu-
factory of mattresses, was discovered at 10
from the iniiammable character of the mate
rial with which the building was filled it
was apparent that it could not be saved
When the fire was fairly under Roadway, it
was discovered that number Of girls, EN-
ployed in the 4th and 9TH stories, had taken
refuge on the roof, from which they were res
cued with great difficulty from the very jaws
of the flames.
While the fremcn with hcrculcan efforts,
had raised ladders to the 4th and 9TH stories TO
delugc them with watcraad II number were on
the ladders, it was noticed with unspeakablc
horror, that the wall against which the lad
ders were placed was falling. The men came
down with the wall and were burned in the
debris. Two were crushed To death instantly,
and Il number badly injured. \ girl was al
so killed, who in her fright leaped from 4th
story window.
On the same day ii fire also broke out in
New Orleans which rsged with intense fury
for over six hours, destroying five compact
blocks, or 223 buildings, rendering over 400
people homeless, and breaking up numerous
business firms. Happily, however, the loca-
ton Of the fire was some distance from the
business center, and most Of the houses de.
stOyed were second class dwellings.
