JoHN MoRRIssY died at Saratoga Springs
on Wednesday of last week, in the 47th
year of his age. lie was born in the coun-
!y Tipperary, Ireland, and, like all true
1ipperay boys, early in life turned his
attention to the use of the shillaIah aud to
indiscriminate fighting, 50 that, as he said
himself he was never happy in his younger
days unless he had a fight on hand. We
need not at any length trace his career af-
ter he came to this country with his pal ents,
who settled at Troy, n. Y. He was a la
borcr in the iron works at that placs-thea
a prize fighter in three or four memorable
matches-then a Democratic politician in
New 1Ork-afterwards member of Con-
gress, and when he died a member for the
second time of the State Senate OF New
ork. As the world goes Morrissey was
exceptionally honest, and not common
plunderer like Tweed AS the keeper of a
iirst-class gambling saloon his victims ad-
mitted that the seductive, but hazardous
amusement playing faro and other games
was conducted on the square, and that
fools and their money are easily parted by
the most legitimate methods He enioyed
the confidence and respect Of some Of the
foremost business men i'll New York, and
by them his word was regarded as good as
bis bond. He was the sworn foe of Tam.
many Hall, and in his death the enemies of
that political organization have lost their
most aggressive leader. lie was buried in
the Catholic cemetery at Troy on Saturday
last, an immense crowd, including most OF
the members of the State Senate, following
his remains TO their fiuaI resting place.

House Burned.

Last Wednesday night between
9 aud 10 o'clock the cry of"fre,
fire." startled the citizens of our
town in the vicinity of the depot,
and soon a crowd, attracted By the
light, started in the direction OF the
flames, which was found to be the
kitchen of Nine. Rene Krebs, situa-
ted on the bank of the P~ascagoula
Just above the drawbridge.
The entire building, consisting of
kitchen, servants and store room,
together with a lot of provisions,
was consumed. The building was
situated about fifty feet from the
dwelling, and but for the timely as
sistance of those who went thither,
the dwelling would have burned.
The loss in provisions and building
amounts to between $500 and $500.
The fire originated in the servants
room and was accidental.

In crossing. the river the two-horse

in the fiat first, and the one.horse
carriage, containing the people,
was in the rear end of the Hat.

frightened him, when he backed
the carriage, with its freight of hui

those inside jumped into the water,
and for a time it seemed as all

child, and held him above water
until Mr.. Jas. Castanero, who a
on this side of the river, went out
in a boat and saved it, Mr.. Raby
being so fatigued By this time that
he was unable to swim back to the
fiat against the current of the
stream, which was very strong. In
tie meantime Mr.. Delmas, who
was on the opposite side OF the
river, went out in a perogue and
rescued Mrs. DeaEle. Mr.. Deakle
during this time jumped into the
water and saved the negro girl.
Mr.. Raby's mule was drowned ;

fell over a wharf and sunk a third

She describes her sensations as not
unpleasant: could distinctly e the

why they did not assist her; saw
the pole coming down, and imagin-

the moment it touched her she
grasped it, and says she could have

Mr.. Geo. Hightower came near
losing his store and stock of goods
last Tuesday night under the fol-
lowing circumstances: After sup
per several persons were in his
store, and during the evening some
one threw either the stump of IA
lighted cigar or knocked the fire
out of their pipe into a box used as
a spittoon, which was filled with
sa wdust and sitting near one of
the counters. The sawdust took
fire, but the store being closed, at
fording no ventilation, it slowly
burned all night, and finally burned
through the floor and caught the
counter. Early Wednesday morn
ing Mr.. HightOwer went to his store
as usual, and upon unlocking the
back door was Mortified to find the
building full of smoke. He imme-
diately closed the door and a
across the street tor a neighbOr,
and together they entered the
building and extinguished the fire,
which soon would have been blaz-
ing up the counter and shelves.
The counter was somewhat burned
and a hole was burned through the
floor. Had Mr.. III. been an hour
later in going to his store the whole
building would have been in flames.
