Particulars ofrhe Late FIrc.

Particulars of me Late Fire.
The big blaze of Wednesday evening
an account OF which was telegrsphed the
Register, by which the livery stable OF
John Brown, and the adjoining stables
of Joseph Apologize, DR.. hlrklr, John
Chsrnock and Hugh Bark, and several
out buildings belonging to Joseph Apple
gate Robert Thompson and Wilson
Besll, were totally destroyed,
created an intense excitement,
and for awhile It seemed
that the fine residences within the square,
could not be saved from the devourlng
element, but the almost super humsn e.
forts of the citizens ayeted the impend-
ing calamity.
The cause of the fire is shrouded in
mystery, but the general impression Is
that spark from 81 adjoining dwelling
Ignited the straw in the loft Of the livery
stable. In very few minutes after the
fire was discovered the entire stable
w.s in flames, snd il wss with
difficulty that the horses could be re.
moved, and even then so rapid was the
spread of the flames thst one of the horses
could not be gotten out, and persisted.
The fire spread to the adjoining stables
with fearful rspidity, snd soon there was
circle of finder boxes shooting lurld
flames skywsrd. 1t seemed, for time,
as though the ContsgrstIon would be.
come general, sad with that view Msyo or
Caldwell telegrsphed the Wheeling Fire
Department for assistance, but In twenty
minutes afterwards he saw it WAS useless
and the order was countermsnded.
A sc-cslled fire engine was called into
requisition, but its services did not repsy
the labor of working it. 1t is an sntedi-
luvian affair and is Curlousiy named
Enterprise" which title seemed like
"sarkssum.'
INCIDENTS.
During the excitement ludicrous oc-
currences were legion. In dwelling
house near the fire sewing machine
was thrown out OF q second story WIN
dow, and bedclothes, carpets, etc, were
carefully carried down stairs.
Che total loss will not exceed $4,000 on
which there is sn Insurance OF 500.
About ii P. NJ. the Hudson and Gran
tie Hotels gave q nice lunch, tree OF
charge, TO aIl who helped to suppress the
flames.
We noticed several ladies on their
housetops with water, which they used TO
extinqulsh the sparks that were falling
around.
l.P. Klein, the accommodating oper-
stor here, kindly remained in his office
to late hour to enable your correspond
ent to get the facts as telegraPhed yes
terdsy.

TIE RAsrFRN sIrUATION.

The dispatches are often conflicting
and unreliable, but enough can be sifted
out Of statements that food the wires
and burden the press to make it evident
that a conflict between England and
Russia is imminent. The government is
on the point Of ordering the British feet
to The D~ardanelles, if this has not already
been done. The British parliament has
voted an appropriation Of e6,OOO,.
900, aud an effort is put forth to
place the entire navy in readiness
for service. 1t is understood that
Admiral Hornsby has been ordered. to
enter the Dardanelles by force, IL neces.
sary, and on the other side the news
comes that torpedoes have been placed
ia that famous strait to give the iutru.
ders a hearty reception. Turkey has
notyet given her consent to the approach
Of the British feet, and is not likely to DO

LONDON, February l3.-Last nights
announcements in parliament have not
appreciably relieved the tension or d.
minishsd the excitement here. The
Pail Mall Gazstte Of yesterday after
noon expressed the expectation that the
government would seek permission to
enter the Dardauelles by means of a
formal pledge that the feet should have
no other business before ConstRntinople
except hat declared 10 Lord Derby's
statement of Friday. The Pail Mall
Gazette considered this about as perilous
and humilialing a position as was posi-
BILE. 1t declared it to De the imperative
duty Of the ministry to redeem the coun,
try from this position at any cost, asd
demanded such reconstruction Of the
cabinet as would leave no doubt that it,
like the country, is of one mind.
The Times Vienna dispatch says on
this subject: What looked yesterday
merely probable seems today pretty
certain, namely, that the entry of the
British feet into the Dardanelles has be.
come the subject of negotiations, osten
sibly between the British government
and the porte, but in reality through the
porte between England and Russia"
The Times, in its leading editorial arti-
Gle, says: However desirable oompro.
mise may be, it can only be based upon
the establishment Of some degree of
mutual confidence, and it is necessary
to observe that it still depends upon Rus.
STA to take the first steps requisite for
this purpose"
A portion Of the militia will soon be
called out, and two corvettes, now in
American waters, have been ordered to
join the Mediterranean squadron.

patton proclamation to bis cabinet. Both
houses Of congress participated in the
ceremony, which was witnessed by a
large crowd Of people. Speeches were
made by Mr.. Garfield, of Ohio, and

Of whom made statesmsnlike and highly
significant remarks. The painting has
been finished some time, and while
greatly admired for correctness Of ex'
preston and detail, has nevertheless
been severely criticised as a work Of art
