FIRES AT DUBoIs.-We learn from
the Kcynoldsville Herald, of tho 2Sd ult, that
Dubois City, this county, was visited by two fires
week before last, one Of which destroyed the
dwelling house Of Mrs. Hanle6ngcr situated near
the posionicc. The Gre occurred on Monday
evening, April 18th. Mrs. II. was absent from
the town, and had len the house in charge Of a
small boy, who was locked In. Mr.. Fred. Tracy
broke in and got The boy out, and, with assistance,
saved The goods in the lower room, but the furni-
ture Of the upper rooms were entirely destroyed.
The FIRE is said to have originated from n de.
fcctiyc auc." The building was insured for 800,
The second Ere occurred nj the large lumber
yard Of Mr.. John Dubois, on Thursday evening,
April 18th. About 10 o'clock P. NJ, The blowing
Of the whistle Of the large mill engine caused a
rush 10 that direction, and u was soon discovered
that a pile Of dry lumber had become igni,ed by
sparks from the burning slab pile. by the united
action Of the citizens the Gre was exungu ished.
The ere resulted from earelessness, and had 1t
been later In the evening, or had there been a
heavy wind blowing at the tine, the smsil mill
and the new mill would have been burned, and,
in all probability, the large mill would have been
destroyed, to say nothing Of The millions Of feet
Of lumber that would undoubtedly have fallen a
prey 10 the fiery element.

ALL TO MARKET.-Our lumbermen
have enjoyed one Of the finest rafting campaigns
ever witnessed in this latitude. The streams
were 10 fine rafting stage from Thursday Of last
,week until Tuesday Of this week. The water did
not vary six inches during all this perio cd. About
two hundred and ten RATS passed clearheld, be-
ing the river and Chest creek stock, and we are
told that there are not over eight or ten RATS let
behind. Clcarfeli creek is cleaned out-logs,
spars and RATS, all gone. We were unable to as
certain the number of RATS made and run out Of
the stream in question. It looks now--ruesday
m%orning-as though everything in the shape Of
logs and timber would get into market before the
GOOD subsidies. What the lumber is selling ct be
low, We have 0 ilearned. 1t is probable that no
prices will be Fixed until the latter part Of the
week.
