Reads the Postal Cards.

A correspondent at Millsboro, Sussex
county, writes to the Delawarean in re-
gard to the postmaster at that place,
"that there is hardly day pass es that
he does not insult some one, either by
his cross, grabbed talk, or by reading
persons postal cards; and if he is told
about reading them he will tell you that
he has the right to do so. Now admit
that he has the right, does he have the
authority to read them aloud? l do not
believe It is the intention of the law. He
is not fit to be a postmaster. He held
that position at Gumborongh. Perhaps
he suited the people at that place, as
they were all afraid of him. This mans
full name Is William Henry Belts"

SUPPOSED WORK OF INcRNDIARIBs
NASHVILLE, Tenn, April IA, 1873.

ocE HOhh oF INCENDIAHIBB.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. April "A, 1873.
Fifty-seven houses were burned at
Clarksville. the principal tobacco market
OF Tennessee, at an early hour this morn
ing. including eight groceries, four con-
fectionery establishments, two jewelry
stores, three clothing stores, two drug
stores, one book store, two saddlery
shops, two public halls, the Court House,
Chancery Court Clerks office. one furni-
ture store, one feed store, a coal office,
one newspaper office, one bank, one tin
and stove store, two millinery shops, one
gunsmith'S shop, one restaurant, one bar
Der shop, one livery stable, one immense
tobacco warehouse, containing 400 hogs
heads of tobacco; eight or ten residences,
one hotel, one agricultural implement
warehouse, one blacksmith shop, a shoe
shop and other small houses. The fire
lasted six hours from the time of break
ing out, eIhausting itself. Fortunately
there was no wind.
ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
The fire is supposed to be the work of
an lncendiary. The negroes of the vicini-
ty have been very discontented of late,
owing to two causes. The first Of these
was the lynching of one of their number
a few weeks ago for an attempted out
rage ON white girl belonging to one Of
The hrst families in the county. Subse-
quently negro named Seat, while resis-
ting policeman named Phillips by at
tacking him with stones, was shot and
killed by the officer. The negroes were
intensely excited over this act and made
such threats of revenge upon Phillips
that he had taken up his quarters in the
Jail for protection.
The fire broke out half-past eleven,
and when the bell was rung alarming the
town it was taken for riot alarm, and
the people did not turn out promptly, all
dreading the result. When the lire had
got under way and was raging furiously
the negroes gathered in knots and re-
fused to give any assistance, openly ex-
pressing their satisfaction at the FIRE.
LOSS AND INSURANCE.
F. P. Gracy is one of the heaviest
losers on his immense warehouse, cover
ing over an acre of ground, worth S1O,-
600; insurance $1,000.
In the warehouse were 400 hoesheads
of tobacco, which is still burning and
will probably continue to until it Is con-
sumed as there are no means of extin-
gushing it. The loss from the turning
out of $500 hogsheads in the street and
letting them run down hill, bursting and
scattering the tobacco in the streets and
afterward getting wet by rain was also
large.
