few minutes before q O'clock last evening.
fire was discovered Ii the upper portion of
hirs. IN. M. NoffiEet's residence, no. 81S
Main street. between Sixth and Seventh.
Almost as the same moment alarng were
turned in at Stations 20 and 25, the former
at the corner of Fifth aud Main streets, and
the latter on Seventh street between Cary
Canal. The gopgs in the engine.hcuses Of
course struck In the most incoherent mar-.
ner, and the firemen with their restye horses
waited with anxiety In front Of the doors
with the engines fred-up ready to go, but
they couldn't tell where and it was not
until one of the fremen who happened to be
near the fire at the time ran up TO the engine
house on Broad street that the men there
knew where to 60. Streams were put upon
Mrs. Norfeet's dwelling and that of Dr..
Mahoney, which adjoins Mrs. Norheets on
the east, and In short time the fire Tas put
out, and the houses, certainly No. Gig,
completely deluged with water. s.s;
The fire originated In one Of the small
upper rooms at Mrs. Norffeetis probably In
the third story-oYer the passage, or alley,
which leads In from the: street below. There
are two small rooms on the third floor. one
Of which was occupied by Mrs. Norfleers
children, and In the other was stored quan-
Itity of kindling wood, etc. There was 9.
stove In one of these rooms, but there was
no fire in ii, and the other room was locked
up. It was therefore inferred that the IRE
was caused by defective fiue in the adjoin.
ing tenement on the west that it first caught
the thin partition between the two houses,
and was then communicated to the roof.
Messrs. Slingluff, Myer, and Morris also
occupy rooms on the third floor. Their fur
niture was damaged considerably by the
water. They were not insured.
The second floor was occupied by Mr..
Gushing Daniel and wife and Mr.. r. 81.
Brock and wife. Their furniture was in
jured by water, but they were insured for
81, 800.
The parlor and Colonel W. E. Cutshaw's
room are on the first floor, and although the
furniture and books in these rooms were
scattered considerably when taken out they
are probably not much injured.
Mrs. Norfeet lost all of her clothing and
much of that of her children. besides hav.
ing her furniture greatly injured. Her loss
will be about $3.50, upon which she has nc
insurance.
The house was owned by Mr. Joseph Fl
Crenshaw. Il was damaged to the extent o
S400, and was insured.
DR.. Mahoney's loss upon his house wa!
about 5000. He had risk upon the house
in the Granite Insurance Company fol
81 700. His loss upon furniture Is abou
5000, upon which there is an insurance o
80, 500 10 the Virginia State Insurance Com
pany. His carpets were torn up, the furni
ture thrown into great confusion, and th'
ceiling in several of the rooms badly injured
by water.

EDWIN BOOTH AS HAMLET.-Edwin Booth
will appear at the Richmond Theatre as
Hamlet on Monday night. This was also
his opening piece in Baltimore, and of the
performance the american of that city said:
NTo say that the theatre was crowded, that
the Audience was refined and critical IN cha
racter, and that when Mr.. Booth stepped
upon the stage be was received with an ap-
plause that was only checked by his own
rebuke, and that when the curtain fell he
was enthusiastically called before ito say
all this Is simply to repeat what Is no news
to any of the great audience that witnessed
and enjoyed Mr.. Booths sHamlet.' Not
Withstanding that he does nothing in which
there are not evidences of careful and intel
ligent study, yet it seems to be granted as
matter of common consent that in Hamlet
he has made a crucial test of his powers
of COMPREHENSION and acting. As scholars
and actors for three centuries have pondered
over sHsmlet,' and scarcely any two nave
given it similar Interpretation, Mr.. Booth
can ask for nc greener laurel than that in this
critical quarter Of the nineteenth century he
is recognized as easily principal of the inter-
prefers of this most puzzing of Shakspe: g n
creations. How much of his triumph Is due
to his face and figure we shall not attempt to
discuss. That personally he is entirely fitted
TO his own conception of the melancholy
Dane is invariably apparent. The slender
figure, the scholarly and deep-set face, the
melancholy eyes, and the weird expression of
the countenaRce, all prepare US for the eX.
pressiye infections of the voice and the
quiet intensity of the acting. Mr.. Booth has
his own Interpretation Of Hamlet
and he acts up TO 1t. That it as.
cends into the loftiest domains OF dramatic
art it would be absurd to deny. 1t is the
Hamlet of the patient student elaborated
by the thorough and competent actor. Ger.
tain Investigators of Shakespeare might deny
Mr.. Booths conception of the character,
but none could detract from the beauty of
his ide4l nor his faitbfulness to it. To wit.
ness Booths sHamet' Is an intellectual
feast. and that he is never permitted to don
the ssbles except before . full theatre we
take to be an encouraging evidence OF sensi-
bility am opg the better class of play.goers.
HMr, Booth was very fortunate last night in
his support. Mr.. T. B. Warde, who played
Laertes, is evidently an actor Of whom praise
can safely be vouchsafed. In his work there
are such evidences of culture and finish as
persuade us that he ought to be witnessed in
parts of greater scope, such as he will be
afforded later in the week. Dir. Lanagan's
Polonious bore comparison with the cast, and
was given with rare excellence. Miss Blanche
Chapman as Ophelia probably played the
character better than had been done for many
years preyiou ly in Baltimore. Mrs. Lana
gan, who gave the Queen, showed at first
some traces Of her recent absence from the
sta9e; but she soon recovered, and in the
great scene with Mr. Booth fully coped with
the onerous demands Of the situation" J

Annual saving for The year 900
The interest on new bonds to be offered for
consols is put at As per cent. The London
holders OF these securities now realize Al
per cent, gold. The higher rate OF interest
would insure exchange, especially as the
new bonds would In few years carry 8
per cent. interest. Besides, the consol or
tax.receiYable bond is not, from its condi-
tions, fayorite security in the London
market. The new bonds, If they inspired
confidence in prompt payment of interest,
would have more value, and insure the con-
version Of all consols not directly held by
State taxpayers. Gold is here estimated
one hundred and fifteen-higher than the
present rate. AIy dimunition would benefit
the State Treasury. The best fnanciers con-
cur in opinion that the laws of commerce
must constantly tend to reduce the premium
on gold. Some high authorities hold that
before three years the rate will be nearer
Los than 1.15. OF course it n " be urged
that natural laws might be interferred with
by unwise Federal legislation. war, Sc. but
human wisdom can only deal with reasona-
BILE probabilities. The great and immediate
financial advantage the State and all her cili-
zens would derive from restoration Of her
credit i. is too obvious to dwell on. But all
4his is subordinate to the question of the
form and character of the new bonds.
Holders of consols cannot be induced to
exchange for new securities which do not
bear assurance of prompt payment, and the
non-consol class would not surrender six
per cent. bonds for similar ones Of much less
interest. The points were discussed in Lon
don. and the opinion was haZarded that Fir.
ginla might be willing to hedge the new
bonds with such guarantees as were in ac-
cord with her own laws administered by her
own courts. 1t was not for moment sup
posed she would consent to refer questions
between her creditors and herself to any tri.
bunal but her own. Your obedent servant,
