Special to the Herald
Mineols, Aug. l0.-About j o'clock this
morning the alarm of fro was heard. The
first who arrived on the ground found G. S,
Hays.store (now used for ware house and
the east side Of II. Newsom's store in
blaze. The adjoining buildings, all being
wood, the flames spread rapidly and were not
checked until the following buildings were
laid in ashes, viz: j. II. Newsom's store
house, c. S. Hayas store house, Weaver &
Benefits meat market, Drumword Il
Williams meat market. Graham's mill-housc
and the Masonic hall. All except Graham's
mill house faced on johnson street. Cinders
fell upon several adjoining houses, but the
united effort ofthe people saved further de-
struction of property. About one thousand
dollars worth of goods were saved out of
j. II. Newsom's store and ali of Newsom's
books and papers. Some few articles were
saved from the other buildings, The Bible
and part of the Masonic regalia were saved,
but their books and papers burned. The to-
tai loss above all insurance, is estimated at
$4,000. j. H. Newsom was insured on
goods and building to the amount of $4,000.
The Masonic hall was insured in favor of
B, f. Read on private account, to the amount
of $500. The fire is supposed to be tho
work of an incendiary, though nothing def
mite can be ascertained SO far that would
probably lead to the apprehension of the
guilty parties. Several suspicious characters
we're observed strolling about the streets late
las: night. Among the valuable things
burned were several fine stock hogs, and
fine dogs. For some time Boon Goods livery
stable was in imminent danger All of his
stock were turned loose, and driven from the
stable, and all other property removed from
the stable. There is considerable excitement
upon the streets this morning, and the insur-
ance agent is in demand. A fire company
is being formed, and our enterprising mer-
chants are proposing liberal donations to
make the organization success.

trOyed-Menyy Loss.

New York, Aug. l0.--This morning about
7 o'clock the hull of tho burning vessel,
Nctsux, still ablaze, nosted against the pier
occupied by the American export lumber
company at Hunters point. The premises
occupied by this company occupy both sides
of Newton creek, the offices being situated
on tho south side Of the creek, while lum.
Der yard is situated on the north side. At
the time the Nictaux came in contact with
the pier they were unloading three large
lumber vessels Tho FIRE Immediately com.
municated to the lumber in the yard, spread.
ing in every direction with lightning rapidly,
From the yard the ire spread to the vessels,
and Notwithstanding the efforts of several
small tugs, which fastened to their assistance
six bsrges, one schooner aad one
ship we're soon enveloped in flames. So in.
tense was the heat from the flames that the
property situated on the south side of the
creek WAS in iminent danger. Over ten acres
Of fire are now raging wildly, and it appears
not to be under control of the hremen. Sew
eral Of the burning vessels were towed out
anu bufp uIllbNu VIVA luhue -
Blackwell Island. The fire is now spreading
in every Sirection and no estimate can be
formed ss TO its probable extent. The scene
from the river is one of ndescribable grand
ure, the flames rising in every direction and
davouring everything in their path II is i'm
possible, owing 10 the confusion this evening,
to ascertain the names Of the burning vessels.
The fire was caused by burning barrels of
oil floating away from the bank into the
bark, which was seriously injured by the
fire, at Charles Pratts oil works on Sunday
last. The burning contents Of the bark we're
being played on all this morning, and it
seems to have escaped the notice of those
who were busily engaged that it was on fire
until at last they came in contact with the
lumber ladened schooner, Norther Home,
lying at anchor some two hundred
feet off the point of Newton creek, and set
her on fire. The flames quickly leaped on
ward to the i'll fated yard. Tho utmost con.
sternation seems to have seized on all those
present, which was Intensified in high degree
by the fact that the creek was almost unnav-
igable on account Of the large number Of
vessels lying in it. AT last some cool-hesded
captain commenced work in the right direc.
ton, and one by one the vessels were got out
in the stream with the exception of those al
ready mentioned, and tho lighters and all
lumber-laden vessels, which will become
total loss.

Trade with Rrazir,,


Washington, Aug. lO,--The consul Of The
United States at Para, Brazil, informs the
department OF state that line of steamers
has recently been established between Bahia
and the United States. 1t ia intended that
every port between Bahia and Para shall be
astopping place, but no stoppage will be
made between Para and New York. At
present there are only two steamers of GOO
tons burden, but others will be added as the
business increases. The consul thinks that
Americans ought to have the carving or
this trade, which Is large. lie is also Of onin.
ion that there is an excellent opportnn;lrto
establish line of steamers between New
York and the Amazon valley, and remarks
that 1t is currently reported
that the citizens of Manoas, a city Of some
eight thousand inhabitants, about eight hun.
bred miles from Para, on the Rio Negro.
near its junction with the Amazon. are de-,
sirous of establishing direct trade with The
United States, and are willing to grant a
subsidy OF about $4,000 each trip, but
whether monthly or tri-monthly isnot stated.
The import duties are six per cent. and tbe
export duties three per cent. less at Manoas
than at Para, for the purpose of encouraging
direct trade with foreign countries. The
agent at Para Of the British line of steamers
makes no secret of the fact that their steam
ers have paid enormously.
