Great Fire at Lennoxville.

Nearly the whole village OF LennoxviIle,
p. O., was DESTROYED by fire on Monday.
The fire started in Charles Brooks hay
NOV at lbs O'Clock in the forenoon, being
caused by children playing with matches.
Mr.. Brooks aud family had started for
Montreal that morning Charles Holmes,
Brooks clerk, discovered it and attempted
to extinguish it with Babcock extinguish-
err. He used two extinguishers and went
after the third, though he thought the fire
out. and when he got back the fire was
breaking through the root. The alarm was
given aud help telegraphed for to Sher.
brooke. q. II. Converse, the Passumpsc
railroad agent at Sherbrooke, Immediately
made up train and took the steam fire
engine and Eve car loads Of men to the
fire.
From Brooks barn the fire spread to his
house, then took his store and Bucks hotel
aud from there swept northward, taking
almost the entire village in its way. Sweep
ing out the buildings along Main Street, it
bore off to the east across the railroad track
and took the old smelling works on the
rivers edge. North Of Bucks hotel the NJ.
Il. church aud livery stable we're taken
Among the buildings burned beside those
named were Cushing's house, barn, and
store, Taylor's bakery, house, and barns,
Johusou's tin shop, and lot Of smaller
buildings. Most of the furniture in Brook s
house was saved, but little in the store.
About half the contents Of Bucks hotel
were saved II or Ii hogs were burned.
Not building was left on the west side Of
Main Street from Brooks house to as TAR
north as Henry's jewery shop, which is on
the east side OF the street. This shop was
saved, though several buildings north Of it
on that side of the street were burned.
The principal buildings left are Henry
shop, mentioned above, Abbott's store and
post-ofhcc, Oaswell House, the English
church, Bucks store, and Clough 4 Robin
sons store, the fire not reaching down to the
southeast where these latter buildings are.
Three.iourths of the wealth of the village
has disappeared in day. The loss is esti-
mated at about 5000, 600; insurance about
$4,000.
The heat of the fire created strong
wind and the cinders few thick and fast ;
everything was dry and there were eight oil
ten buildings burning at time. The
steamers had to throw water from the river
through n long hose, aud could not make
much show against the fire, which it might
be said stopped only when there was moth
ing more to burn. Mr.. Brooks, in whose
barn the fire originated, has been making
extensive repairs upon his buildings this
summer, and was making every arrangement
to promote safety against fire, and it SEEM
particularly unfortunate that such an ex
tensive fire should have originated in hi
own buildings.

bought glass inquired it he had got his glass
lilo told him he had, and the circumstances.
"Well," said the builder, III could have got
you the glass for ~ cents a light, charges
all paid. The merchant got discount of
80 per cent. on that bill, for cash" The
poor merchant had sold ut wholesale, ouly
making little over 81 per cent.
We arc net surprised to hear the mechan.
les and workingmen in this village talk
about combining aud organizing a council Of
Sovereigns Of Industry. We shall not be
surprised If this talk ends in something be-.
sides smoke. We are only surprised that
the thing has not been done before; that tho
mechanics of the village have waited until
the farmers Of the town had tried similar
combination and proved it a success before
entering into II themselves. There is every
inducemeut and even necessity for workmen
here to be organized. They not only pay a
large portion OF our taxes, and a large por-
ton Of the profits which enable so many
storekeepers to get living, but they have
been controlled by narrow ring Of shrewd
schemers whose day of power draws nearer
ITS close just in proportion as the working
people draw nearer to each other in oo0per-
alive unions. This ring rule has been most
thorough and complete, aud its effects reach
into every sphere Of life. Politically, the
ring has this year met two pretty emphatic
deieats,--the nomination AMI election Of u
farmers county ticket, almost entire, and the
defeat of Poland. What more is in store it
would be hard to tell, but it the proposed
new order is introduced, there is quito likely
to be a tumble in prices aud a diminishing
Of the number Of men employed in waiting
for customers at good salaries. We have
charged that there is "ring" rule existing
here. Does any one doubt it Proof is
plenty. Look at the Portland Street bridge
contract, where tenders wero advertised for
but when men outside the ring applied for
specifications they were refused and the
work was done by the village ring. Look at
the Caledonia County Agricultural Society,
Differed by professional men whose interest
in agriculture is measured by the amount
that the farmers contribute TO feed and
clothe them. Look at the county caucus
called the day before the farmers festival
because farmers would hardly feel like CIV
ing two days to public matters in the same
week, in the busy season Of the year. Look
at the ballot box open to Judge Poland but
closed to au opposition ticket under the same
circumstances, in the town caucus. One has
only to open his eyes aud look about him to
see convincing proof on every hand that a
ring not ouly control the town but are
straining every nerve to perpctuate that con-
troll. The ring, both political and CONNER
cial, see in this proposed council Of Sover.
eigns cloud considerably larger than a
mans hand, and with no little anxiety watch
the course matters are taking We think
there will be considerable Of shower.
