Gen. R. D. Lilley OF this city. Agent of Wash
ington & Lee University Col. VIM. Townes OF
Boydton, Va, and ]. A. H. ST. Andrew of Farm
Vile, Va, were guests at the banquet given last
Tuesday evening, at the Atlantic Hotel in
Bridgeport. Connecticut, by the st. Georges
Society, in double commemoration OF the an
niversary of England's Patron Saint and the
anniversary of Shakspeares birth, and replied
appropriately TO toasts-Gen. Lilley to "Our
Guests;' Col. Towncs to the 'United States;'
and st. Andrew to "The British Association of
Virginia.
Gen. Lilley concluded his remarks as fol-
lows:
"Your society," on account OF the noble pur-
pose for which it was organiZed-to care for
Englishmen in distress-cOmmandS my pro-
found admiration; and it is particularly pleas
course on this festive occasion, when their
bright memories of good, old England are cher
lshed and kept alive. We have quite a number
OF Englishmen in Virginia who have cast their
lot with us within the last ten years and are
aiding in developing the resources of our State.
They have received a cordial welcome, and
have so thoroughly identified themselves with
us that we feel thatthey are part of us. There
b ONE among as for the last eight or ten years,
and by his independence of thought and ex-
preston upon all subjects in which he and our
pie are Interested, has shown the highest integ
rity of purpose and those qualities of mind and
heart which have secured for him the esteem
and warm regard of all who know him person.
ally or by character-and in Virginia we call
him Saint Andre,o! And now, Mr.. President,
visit Virginia and enjoy the Inequalities of our
people. for whatever faults Virginians may
have, there is always with us cordial greeting
and an honored place for the guest"

WELLsBURG.
Di.asterous Fire--Incidents. d


WELlsBuRe, June 9th.
Correspondents Of the IntellIgenoer.
II has been good while since We had
q Gre, yesterday evening about seven and
s.h ali o'clock the FIRE alarm was sounded,
flames were dicoyered issuipg from the
livery stable Of Mr.. John Brown, situated
on jail alley, in the center Of Court
House block. The origin Of the ERE is
unknown. In few seconds the stable, q
wooden structure about % by so feet, one
story with the customary hay loft, was en-.
,irely enveloped in the devouring ele-
ment, which rapidly communicated with
the lumber yard Of Robt. Thompson's wa.
gon and carrisge works, the stables and
out buildings Of Messrs. Jos. Apologize,
DR.. Kiker, Wilson Beall, Hugh Barth,
and J. N. Charnock, which were all
entirely consumed. At this writing il
cannot be ascertained what the loss will
be. Mr.. Brown lost valuable horse
which could not be gotten from the stable,
and several vehicles. Mr.. Thompson's
loss in lumber, tools and damage TO prop.
erty Is quite heavy. All Of the buildings
in the immediate vicinity, and, in TACT,
the entire town for while seemed TO be
doomed to the fiery element. One Of the
engines, which never can be depended
upon, could not be got 10 work. The
sparks from the burning buildings were
being carried upward and descending on
the adjoining property at a rate that be-
came feariully alarming. The wild
eat excitement prevailed for an in.
slant; buckets were procured, and men
and women climbed to the tops OF
the houses and gave battle 10 the threat
ening sparks which fell around them for
awhile thick and fast. Some will say that
is surely mistake about women being
on the housetops, but It's true. A young
lady at Mr.. Wilson Beall's, we do not
know her name, was on top OF that gen.
tleman's residence and did good service.
We also noticed Misses Stella and Lloa
Moore on the roof OF their residence as.
sisting in warding of the FIRE. Many in
stances Of heroic conduct are reported on
the part OF both ladies and gentlemen.
Had Il not been for the buckets we would
have had such conaagration as would
have made a barren waste Of the entire
business portion Of the town. Fortu.
nAtely there was calm at the time.
Mr.. John Laishley, Of Wheeling, was
in town during the fire and rendered val |
liable assistance.
Mr. Wilson Beall hsd all his house
hold goods removed to a place Of safety.
The Town Couneil sustained tho Mayor |
in his action suppressing the sale Of the
Pittsburgh Sunday Leader, BY passing an
ordinance prohibiting all unnecessary
labor or trahc on the Sabbath day.
Miss Annie Moore, Of Tiltonsyille, is
visiting Miss Bose Wheeler.
The ladies In the vicinity oil the Gre
have the thanks Of those fighting the
flames for the excellent coffee served.

CLEVELAND, O.. November S.-Dr. B. 7.
Brown, one OF the eldest and most respected
homeopathic physicians OF the city, tells
and vouches for the following: Last sun
day had patient. whose condition l re-
garded so critical that called counsel OF
physicians. He is butcher named Joseph
Eain, living on Webster street. His case
was very bad one, Of infiapnlatory rhell-
matism. The doctors regarded his recov-
cry as hardly possible, and Sunday evening,
after placing hoops over him ia the bed to
keep the covering from touching him, |
left, thinking lie would hardly stand
ii till morning, as an examination OF the re-
oion OF the heart proved that the disease was
nearing that vital part. Monday morning,
however, I called around to see my patient,
and was greatly surprised to find him as
we'll as ever, apparently, and walking about
tie house. | anXiousy asked, How is
thiS?' Kahn answered - I will tell YOU.
Last night expected to be dead before this
time, but now am feeling as well as ever.
During the night the words Who healeth
Eall thy diseases p came suddenly to me.
repeated them over and over Il few times,
and then substituted smy' for thy and
said, who healeth all my diseases?' The
words I repeated for few minutes, when,
in moment, ali the pains and cramps left
me, and was as you see me now, perfectly
well."
Dr. Brown regards the case most re-
markable one, while Kahn, who is Free
Methodist, is positive that his recovery is
due wholly to divine interposition. He
says it is miracle, but to-day he was obliged
to take TO bis bed, and before he gets up
again he may find that it is not very last
ing miracle. .a...

show cause why he should not be Juror
