The fire last night on Water street.
mentioned briefly in the columns OF the
Dispafch this morning, proved to DC
more serious than was supposed ct the
time the report closed. Thenpper por.
ton of the building was destroyed ana
the walls tumbled in. The building be-
lopged to Mr. Cicero Burruss, banker,
and was insured for $40, 000--s6, 900

as follows: Connecticut, $4,000; Lion,
az. 500; London Assurance, $3.50.
Tho other portion of the building
was occupied by r. p. yaight q Co.,

damaged. Insured for $4,000 in the
following companies Home, OF New
York, $4,000; Liverpool and London
and Globe, $1,000; North British Mer-
camille, $4,000.
The answer Of the Southern Tele-
graph Company to the bill filed by Cen
eral Malone is curious document. 1t
goes into a wholesale denial Of the
charges preferred, but admits that Mr..
Dimmock, president, advanced $780,
900 to the company, for which he re-
ceived stocks and bonds to the amount
of s2,5OO.OOO. 1t says that the line
would have been completed to New Or

of the answer has been sent to Receiver
A. l.. Boulware.

0NANCOCK, January 6, 1885.
Captain b. 5. Rich, superintendent of
the Iife-saving stations of the Fifth dis
trict. which extends from Cape Hcnlo-
pen to Cape Charles. will. as required
by law, hold an investigation into the
recent wrecking of the Norwegian bark
Lena. and the consequent loss OF eight
lives. There is no doubt that the life
saving crew at Hog island did all that
could have been done to rescue the un-
fortunate sailors. and yet more lives
were lost in this one disaster than in all
the previous history of the service in
this district. Superintendent Rich has
perhaps the best-organizel district in
the country.
Nowhere in the world are the people
kinder to the preachers than here on the
Eastern Shore. During Christmas
week Rev. W. C. Walden, Southern
Methodist, and Rev. John w. Hundley,
Baptist, both well-known and highly
esteemed in your city, were literally
buried beneath showers Of good things.
Reports from other sections show that
all the preachers on the Eastern Shore
received the same kind of treatment.
Accomac will soon lose her most dis
tinguished citizen, Hon. John Nicely,
who intends to make Norfolk his future
home. Mr.. Neely's record as lawyer,
legislator, and public man, is known to
all Virginians, but none except his
neighbors can appreciate the void in
affairs which his departure will cause
here. His charming wife and accom-
plished daughters will be missed almost
as much as himself.
Much complaint is still heard about
the irregularity of the mails from Nor
folk and other southern points. The
defective and inefficient facilities for
Transporting the mails across the bay
between Norfolk and Cape Charles fur
nish ground for these complaints, while
the failure of the north-bound express
train on the Eastern-Shore road to con-
meet at Wilmington, Del, with the train
for Baltimore has raised a tempest Of
righteous indignation all along the line,
as well as in Baltimore, Norfolk, Ports
mouth. and other cities along the coast
Of the South Atlantic States. These
complaints willprobably cause the Post
Office Department to restore the mail
service on the Old Bay Line or compel
the railroad to provide better facilities.

Close or a Public Warehouse CHARGES Dis

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch. |
JANUARY I. 1885.
The owners of Moorc's warehouse,
one Of the largest of the four tobacco
warehouses in this city. have given no.
tice that on and after the 10th of Feb
ruary next that property will be closed
as public warehouse. II is presumed
that it will be opened thereafter as
private one.
The assessors Of lands and buildings
for this city, appointed few days ago,
have actively entered upon their duties.
In the Mayors Court this morning
Nat. Hamme (colored), charged with
shooting Edmund Walker on Christmas
day, was discharged. TWAS shown by
the evidence that the shooting was done
in self-defence, and under circumstances
that the counsel for the prisoner de-
clared would have justified killing.
The ball from Hamme's pistol struck
Walker in the forehead. but glanced.
Hamme was fined 500 and costs for car
rying pistol, and the weapon was con-
fiscated to the State.
In the Mayors Court yesterday and
to-day fines aggregating 800 were i'm
posed, and most of them paid, for yio-
lations of State and city laws-the
largest pecuniary business done by the
Court for long while.
There are six colored lunaticS in the
city Jail awaiting admission to the asy-
lum.
1t is understood that the State granite
quarry on the grounds Of the Central
Lunatic Asylum has been leased in
part by citizen of Richmond. The
granite here is represented to be among
the finest in the country.
The sum of $4,000. which the House
committee is reported to have agreed
upon for the improvement of the APP
pomattox river, is regarded by the
friends of that improvement here as
ridiculously small, and out Of all pro-
portion to the great amount in taxes
this district has paid into the United
States Treasury during the past few
years, aggregating many millions of
dollars. The fault heretofore has been
that the appropriations for our river
have been too small to accomplish any
real and lasting improvement. With
$4,000 or 100000 in hand, work
might be done which would not only
greatly benefit our port and its COM
merce, but save large expenditures in
the future. ROBIN ADAIR.

II is evident that strong feeling has

boldcrs foreign policy, and that Mr..

cided steps TO rebuke the repeated
snubbings that England has recently
received from some Of the leading CONT
mental Powers. The people are growing
restless under what they consider the ar
rogance Of BISMARCK especially, while
