a Montpelier dispatch, dated the
10Th inst, says:
There is to be u meeting Of the
Governor, State Auditor, State Treas
urer, the Inspector OF Finance and
the Trustees Of the Reform School at
Waterbury tomorrow, to consider the
question of an extra session Of the
Legislature TO vote money to rebuild
the school edifce, and either questions
connected Herewith. Although it is
a fact that no State officer nor all the
State officers together have authority
to take from the Treasury u dollar for
this purpose, the desire is to avoid the
expense of an extra session if posi-
bic. II is believed that the result of
this meeting will be the dcyioing of
means by which the school will he re-
built and the expense Of the extra
session avoided.

Burning Of the Reform School
Building.

The State Reform School building,
at Waterbury, was burned last Satur-
day morning about 3 o'clock. The
fire took from one Or the pipes connect
ed with the gasometer which by some
accident permitted the gas to escape
and ignite. The flames soon reached
the woodwork of the door leading to
the kitchen, and from there extended
quickly to ali parts Of the building.
An alarm was immediately given and
all the inmates were safely removed.
The smoke was so dense and the
fumes OF the gas so strong that it
was impossible for the officers to
reach the fire hydrant to attach hose,
and SO the ire met with no obstacle ;
indeed, in most OF the rooms the in
mates were in danger Of sutfocation,
and though the boys were warmly
clothed and quickly removed, the
officers had no time to save anything
Of the personal chattels, save the
scanty clothing they first threw on.
The building and furnishing, which
cost the State about forIy-eight thou
sand dollars, is entirely consumed.
There is insurance in various com
panies. amounting to about twenty
four thousand dollars. Tle boys are
lodged for the time being at the
Waterbury Hotel, and the trustees in
conjunction with Governor Peck are
nav engaged arranging for the future.
During the fire the boys, who num-
bered about 100, behaved splendidly
They were mostly placed upon their
honor, and none attempted TO run
away.
