Tuesday morning, about one O'Clock,
Il fire WAS discovered in Mr.. Smiths

who was asleep in his room across the
street, was aroused by the glare oflight,
and, running over to the fire, found
the shop in full blaze, and in the car
riage shop, almost In front, a small fire
in the corner inside, the back door
being open. The flames spread rapidly,
caught the house owned by Mr.. Klein
formerly belonging to Ezelius,) then
spreadto the frame building lately
occupied by Mr.. Naughton as a tin
shop, {all Of these buildings being con-
sumed,) and were then carried to the
brick building occupied by Garretson
as asaloon and Bofenschen as a jeweler's
shop.-The latter building suffered the
loss of the roof, the ceiling upstairs and
was otherwise damaged.
Thesufferers by the fire are-Garrett-
son (damages1 about $500; Bofenschen
unknown, insurance on stock and build
ing $3.50; Conner unknown, insurance

Klein $1,000, insurance 5000; estate OF
Burns $500; J. w. Smith unknown,
insurance about $500; Gibson $3.50

The fire companies were on the ground,
and succeeded in arresting the spread
Of the flames. Our citizens wero gal
lantly assisted by the soldiers here, to
whom we return the peoples hearty
thanks. We extend our sympathy to
the sufferers, and hope they may never
be similarly visited.

During tho recent excitement in Vicks
burg, q call was made upon our people for
assistance. Messrs. Cobb, McEnery and
others promptly took up the appeal, and in
Two or three hours, collected from Trenton
and Monroe company Of about fifty men,
we'll armed who organized with Mr.. Shelby
of Trenton AS captain, and AIessrs, Stone
and Gunby as lieutenants, and with the
prompt assistance of the Secretary of the
railroad, secured a special train and were
on duty in Vicksburg within eight hours
from the time their services were asked.
The Vicksburger, noticing the aid rendered
. says tho people Of vicksburg feel grateful,
and will not forget the kindness in any
trials that may beset our people hereafter.

We should be pleased to SEQ all tho

is nearly snow-white, and the bread
made Of it is really delicious. Inquire

Having canvassed the election re-
turns OF all the parishes about which
there was no contest, the Returning
Board has turned its attention to the
parishes in dispute, numbering 26 in
all. a majority Of the protests come
from the Radicals, and where no other
objection would lie, that Of aintimi-
dation" has been made. The Board is
evidently bent upon having the Radi-
Gals organize the legislature. With
this purpose plainly in view, it is not
surprising that the people Of New
Orleans, as we are told, are excited and
ready to act.

having expired, and he declining tor pro
fessional reasons to be a candidate for re-
appointment.
lie was present at the services Of the
Sabbath school in the afternoon, aud in his
kind and affecting address to the members
of the school. he said his connection with
the institution from first to last had been
most agreeable; and he gratefully alluded
TO the uniform cOurtesies and cooperation
extended to him by all the officers and
lessees and Superintendent Col. J. Q.
Griffith and Rev. II. =. Bennett, with
their COPS Of self-sacriticing teachers;
to all Of whom he expressed
his grateful Acknowledgements for the
Jealous aid given in the discharge of the
important religious work assigned him.
The prisoners presented and had read a
paper expressive of their deep regret at his
taking leave of them, assuring him on be
half Of many who had attached themselves
TO the church under his ministry, and also
many Others. that they felt as though they
were parting with a true and tried friend
and a worthy brother.
Much good has been accomplished dur
ing the last two wears toward the moral
reformation and elevation of the inmates of
the prison, as is admitted 10y all, and we
hope the good work Will still 90 on and
never be abated.

The Southern Telegraph Institute of
Louisville e fUmbuS.

The Southern Telegraph Institute Of
Louisville, We presume, has through adj
verisements, become pretty thoroughly
known. 1t has been in existence about
two years. 1t is now published 10y the
Louisville papers rs a grand swindle. {.
w. Crozier, Jr., who has been a student
there, passed through this city yesterday en-
route for his home in Knoxville. He saws
his experience with the concern cost him
$500. While he was there about 30 students
were in attendance. The institution had
proposed to teach the art in three months
and furnish situations. He states that
they did not pretend to fulfill the latter
part of the obligation, and proved them
selves incompetent TO fulfill the first part.
When this was discovered about a month
ago, Mr.. Cr0Zier says a party Of the stu
dents had the prOprietOIs arrested
for obtaining money under false pretences
and placed under bond not to issue any
more circulars or advertise their establish
ment. Mr.. c. and three others also brought
an action for damages. This is not yet
decided. Many young men from various
places have gone to that institution 10 Learn
the art of telegraphy-sCme from Texas and
other States. 1t is a pity the outrageous
swindle has not been long ago exposed.
