THREE steamers, the Charles Bod

THREE steamers, the Charles Bod
man, Exporter and John Kyle were
destroyed by fire at New Orleans on
Friday. They were all frst-ciass
steamers, costing respectively $IOO,-
600, $4,000 and 100000. They
were burned to the waters edge.
Much freight was lost.
The worst part of the calamity is the
loss of life. So rapid was the progress
of the flames, that but little time was
given the crews and passengers in
which to make their escape, and some
thirty, it is believed, perished either
by drowning or burning. Among
the lost is Mr.. JOHN FERRARD, sec
ond engineer of the Bodman, born
and raised in this city, but now a
resident of Bellevieu, Kentucky. He
was about 40 years of age, and bore
the character of skillful engineer,
and a good citizen. He leaves wife
and one child.

JUDGE TAFT, of Cincinnati, is re-
ceiving many complimentary notices
as a fit candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor. Even the
Cincinnati Volksbl0H speaks OF him
as a man every way worthy of the
high distinction. He is without doubt
an able and pure citizen, and would,
we are certain, honor the Republican
party if made its standard bearer.

CONSERVED PEACHEs-The Wilmington
Commercial says; They talk a good deal
down in the fruit-canning towns about
conserved peaches" We asked a gentleman
from among the orchards what they were,
and he rays the process OF putting up is like
this: A rich sugar syrup is boiling, when the
pared fruit, In halves, being placed In a wire
slightly cooked, and then, being removed, is
left TO become dry. This slight cooking in
the rich syrups forces more sugar into the
fruit and conserves IL, leaving sugar on the
outside In crystals. The fruit, being thor
Gus hly dried, is packed in boxes In layers,
sprinkled with sugar, and resembles what Is
known as French citron.
