some witnessing the transit of the boss planet,
while others saw only the transit of fifteen

occupations, and may be INDUCED in any
day in the year, provided the undertaken does
not overtake you.

A Cairo dispatch, of Monday, says: "In
conversation with the officers of the Guiding
Star to day your correspondent learned tn at
the Congressional Committee expressed
themselves as entirely dissatisfied with the
present system OF river improvement, and
are disposed to look upon the whole thing
as steal of large proportions. The Oldest
pilot on Lbe river evidently manipulated the
unsophisticsted congressman to much better
advantage than did the educated engineers
who were at various times interviewed"

A small Blaze.

For the first time in many @ month the
fire alarm was sounded in Benton yes
terday, about 2 o'clock, and in a few
minutes there was a grand rush for the
scene Of the confagration. The burning
building proved to be the residence of
Chas. Dryer, on Franklin street, near
Payne's blacksmith shop, and before the
flames were subdued almost every arti-
Gle within the house was burned OF
damaged beyond repair. The building,
the property of MI. Payne, and which
is. not a very valuable one, was not dam
aged to any great extent. The origin af
the fire is not known, but it is supposed
to have caught in some way FROM the
kitchen stove which was not put up with
any particular regard for safety from fire.
We understand that Mr.. Dryer claims
he lost 5000 in money, which amounth he
had given his wife for safe keeping, and
she, with a W1man's instinct, had CON
cealed it in the bed. The bed was
burned and the money with it. But a
day or two before Dryer sold his interest
in the Grand Union barber shop and he
had considerable money. II, as hesays,
lie lost the sum named, together with
all his household effects, he is decidedly
out Of luck and deserving Of 9 greatdeal
Of sympathy.
