At the recent meeting of the mem.

and Hook aud Ladder Company No. l,
a resolution was unanimously adopted,
rendering the thanks of the companies
to Captain ID. Il. Grove for his kind
ness and liberality in preparing the
platforms for the floats used by them
ON Carnival Day, without charge. The
cost of lumber and construction of the
platforms was no small sum, and Cap
tain Grove, in thus personally bearing
the expense, and presenting receipt
ed bill to the companies, did an act OF
liberality that was duly appreciated
and will not soon be forgotten.

DESTRUCTIyE FIRE.
Burning Of II Steam FIGURING Mill
Loss, 5000 10 $4,000.

Intelligence was received in the city
yesterday morning of the burning Of
Millers's mill, situated on Five-mile
Creek, about six miles south of this
cry. The mill was owned by Colonel
Grin Miller and DR.. Ewing, of this
city, and was regarded as one of the
best paying pieces Of property in the
county. A considerable amount of
flour and grain was destroyed, which,
together with the mill, will entail II
loss to the proprietors of between six
teen and eighteen thousand dollars,
upon which there is an insurance of
but four thousand dollars, principally
in Eastern companies.
The fire took place about two O'Clock
yesterday morning, and the origin of
il Is unknown. AS the mill had been
idle, however, for three or four days
previous TO the disaster, the general
supposition Is that the fire was the
work of an incendiary.
Sheriff B6rkley dispatched number
of his efficient deputies to the scene OF
the conIlagration, who will leave no
means untried to ferret out the guilty
parties IL any there are.

For several days past industrious
croakers have been busy circulating
reports in regard to the prevalence OF
small poX in Dallas. Not few of these
reports have been spread in the inter

ton of the trade that naturally seeks
Il market here The proclamation of
His Honor, Mayor Cabell, calling upon

while issued with the best and most
humane of motives, was rather prema-
ture and injudicious. That there were
and are few cases of small poX in
Dallas is possible, and it would be
strange, indeed, that a city of the pro.
portions of Dallas, and with II large
floating population, should entirely, at
all seasons of the year, escape this dis
ease. But that it exists to any sufli-
cient extent to create the slightest
alarm, is absolutely false. A meeting
of physicians was held yesterday, and

has figured quite extensively in New

His first introduction to the public was
in Cincinnati, where he was known
and recognized as n sneak-thief, and
subsequently served several short
terms in various Ohio prisons. Re-
leased from prison, he took up his resi-

after brief sojourn, he was convicted
of burglary, and sentenced to the peni-

three years. AT this institution, by

climate proving unhealthy, he mi

filled his position admirably, being
constantly engaged in putting up
jobs and then turning State'sa evil

was too low, mean or contemplate for

people of Louisiana are rid of n brute
