Fire M Orange.
Ioranss gIszas, ) Trfbuns, Oct. II

lA4A8c t42443sl 1fzo1ne, 0et- II.
About 10 o'clock Saturday night
the alarm of fire was given, and the
inhabitants of our little city, knowing
the possibility of blaze playing sad
havoc with the business portion of the
town, sprang to their feet in an VI
slant, and looking oIs the illumination
of the sky struck them with fright and
terror. There was no jingling of fire
bells to give warning of an approach
ing engine-no hook and ladder com
pany, and no trumpet voice of stern
command; but pell-mell the people, big,
little, old and young, made the most
rapid speed possible to the scene of
what promised to be a most serious
confagration. The fire originated in
the loft of w. FL. Stark's livery stable,
on Fourth street There was no one
at the stable at the time. The loft
contained considerable amount Of
hay, and whether the fire was the
work of an incendiary or caused by
spontaneous combustion is not yet
and may never be known. The flames
devoured the building in marvellous
short period, but men were on hand in
time to save the horses and the bug
gies. The building adjoining the
stable and owned by Mrs. Finch, was
soon ignited, and although great eff
forts were made to arrest the flames
here, they leaped to the next house, a
new building just put mp by Mr.. ID.
Gilmer. This brought the fire in
close proximity to Front street, and
greatly increased the alarm as it was
well known that if another building
went many others would be destroyed.
Desperate and almost super-human
work, however, prevented the further
spread of the flames, and in short
time all danger was over. The losses,
as near as can be ascertained, are
about as follows: W. III. Stark, S700;
Mrs. Finch, S40o; ID. Gilmer, $500.
Others sustained trifiing losses. This
blaze demonstrated how poorly we are
prepared to contend with the fire-fend
no organization and no one to lead.
The merchants threw open their stores
and rolled out buckets and blankets,
and the men worked faithfully; but
still amid the confusion and lack of
concerted action, we came fearfully
near loosing large portion of the
town-when, had we been prepared
for such emergencies, this fire could
have been easily controlled. Nearly
every one took a hand in fighting the
fames--the mill men. railroad men,
and many Others having no interest in
the place whatever were most faithful
in their exertions, and cannot receive
toosmuch praise.

Washington, Oct. 2O.-3The case of
I the stranded steamer State of West
Virginia, involving the constitutional
ty of the jury law of that state, which
excludes colored men from jury lists,
was argued in the United States su-
preme court to-day.
In the railroad case, the decision of
which was simply announced on the
last day of the last term, the opinion
of the majority of the conrt affirming
the constitutionality of the Thurman
sinking fund act was delivered by
chief justice Waite. Long dissenting
opinions were read by associate
justices Strong, Bradley and Field.
In discussing the case of the Central
Pacific company, of California, Justice
Field maintained that the Thurman
act is an unconstitutional invasion of
the sovereign right of the state of
California, inasmuch as it assumes IL
legal control over state corporation,
and takes from the state all the latter's
authority over company of its own
creation. Justice Fields opinion CON
cludes as follows: j am utterly at
loss to find where the authority of the
United States TO interfere with a state
in this respect and take such control
from it is to be found, excepting tbeo-
ries of those who regard the general
government as the all-controlling power
of the nation, to which the state, even
in local matters, must bend. i can
not assent to any such theories. The
government created by the constitution
left the state control of local matters,
and it never entered into the concep-
ton Of its trainers that under it crea-
tions of the states would be taken by
it from their control and they left
powerless and helpless in the matter.
The doctrines advanced in the opinion
of the majority of the court go further
than any doctrines heretofore adyanc-
ed, and any evsn thought possible in the
history of the country, to destroy the
independenceeof the states, and estab-
lish their hslplessness even in matters
of local concerns against the will of
congress. He mnst be dull indeed
who does not see that under the legis-
lation and the course of decisions of
hate years, oar government is fast drift
ing from its ancient mooring, and run
the system established by our fathers
into a vast centralized and aoDsalirla
ted government.

lBaton Rouge Letter to Brooklyn Eagle.l
As the cane is passed between the
rollers it parts with its juice, and as
seen crushed and apparently dry after
the operation it is called bagasse. The
juice is conveyed to u series of kettles,
where in due time, after being boiled,
!. it is crystalized into sugar. A conspic-
nous object, when yieSd from river
steamer, is the huge chimney, appa-
rently more than 100 feet high, that
stands near every sugar-house. The
chimney is psed to burn the bagasse in.
Some years ago i visited a plantation
and said to the proprietor thereof:
"Why do you not use the bagasse for
paper material, instead of burning it
ups" His reply was: 81 do not know
that it could be used for making paper.
All the planters bnrn the bagasse, and
4 do as my father did. i don't know
about making paper"
i collected some of the bagasse and
sent tito a paper manufacturer in St.
Louis who made paper of it, and wrote
to me letter stating that the bagasse
was an excellent material for use in
paper-making, as it had a good pulp
and a fine and strong fiber. j published
the result of my observations, hoping
that planters of Louisiana would take
advantage of the information, and, in
Stead of burning the refuse cane, bale
it up and send it to market for paper
stock. Nothing everlcame of the sug-
gestion so far as 4 know.
Last week 4 took up Southern pa
per and read an article, wherein the
writer, who evidently thought he had
made a discovery, declared the value
of bagasse as an article of commerce,
and by a careful estimate showed that
the planters of this State could benefit
themselves to the extent of millions of
dollars annually by selling the waste
cane for paper stock. But it is hard
to teach old dogs new tricks.
