A disastrous fire visited tie city Of
Quebec on tho night Of the 9Th inst, and in the
course Of eight hours burned over what is
known as the suburb of St. John Owing to the
fact that most OF the houses were OF wood, to
the utter lack OF water and the inofilciency OF
the fire department, the conhagration had full
Roadway and ceased mainly for want OF mate
rial. Several persons were burned TO death.

were burned, $500 persons rendered homeless,

Gen. Joseph Il. Johnston has been in
terviewed in reference to the structures OH him
as military man made by Jefferson Davis in
his recently published work. In reference to
Davis statement that he ought to have taken
Washington after the victory at Bull Run, he
said it was based on the hue-and-cry raised in
the South after the victory, and intimates
that Davis is either ignorant OF the true
state Of affairs or willfully misrepresents
the facts. To take Washington at that
time lie declares was impossible. Other state
ments Of Davis Johnston pronounces utterly
false. Other parts of the book which refer to
him he pronounces as misleading, unjust,
without foundation, and without justification,
except in the ignorance Of the author as 10
matters Of which he processes knowledge.

Jay Gould has filed Mt Atchison ar
ticles of incorporation for the Missouri Pacific
railroad, OF Kansas, with a capital Of $500, 900,
to lay a track from Atchison to Omaha. The
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy managers
have been threatening that in this event they
would construct a line from Beatrice, Neb., to
Salina, Kap., which would cut three Gould
roads, and divide the livestock traffic of the
Union Pacific. 1t is probable that the South
west is to have a lively war of construction
parties over the violation of an agreement.
