sition and to reply to the charges against
him, before the change was made. The
request was granted, but it is not beliey-
ed that anything he can say will cause
his retention. An investigation Of the
management of the office Of the Superin-
tendenu and Disbursng Office of the De

John Bright says: "When the debt of
the United States is much reduced, when
their revenue is in excess of their wants,
then their tariff will be reformed and
their import duties will be reduced. -
This is both reasonable and probable, and
the time that Mr.. Bright foresees cannot
be very far distant.

and with great difficulty all OF the

morning the flames burst forth and the
building which cost nearly million Of
dollars, will be total loss. On account
of the bad condition OF the roads the
steam engines were unable to reach
the scene.
This afternoon the tiremen succeeded
in saving a portion OF the west wing,
consisting OF eight or ten wards. A
number OF male patients have been
returned to it. The attaches OF the hos.
pital made no attempt to check the fire,
but devoted all their energies 10 remov-
ing the patients, some OF whom became
intensely excited, and were removed
with great difficulty, considering FIRE q
great treat. Several OF the inmates es-
capped from the keepers, and were found
at Bloomsbury, thirteen miles away. A
number were taken away to-day by
friends, and it isGeXpected that more
will be called for tomorrow Several
steamers are still playing on the ruins,
which have been visited by Thousands
OF people from the surrounding coun-
