" Of the gallant general.


This morning at little after Eve o'clock
an alarm OF fire was sounded from box 81
corner of Main and Isabella streets. The DE-
pai tment responded with their usual slacrity,
and found, upon reaching the scene OF the
FIRE, that it was in the rear of James Nelson's
blacksmith shop. The Central and Western
each laid line OF hose, and in an hour
every thing was as quiet as il nothing had
happened. Some man, after box 81 had been
sent in, ruug in box SO. This brought the
Hill house department out, and by the time
they reached the place there was nothing for
them to do. But they were not going to have
sll that run tor nothing. So, as a matter OF
form, they laid about block of hose aud
pitched in with the other two departments to
put out fame as large as the head Of a bar
rel. Mr.. Nelson reports that his loss will
reach $500. Besides the loss of the stable he
lost lott full of hay, wagon that was un'
| dergoing some repairs and a great quantity o
paints, oils and varnish. |, is .ully cgvereC
| by insurance.

NEW CARLISLE.

New CARLISLE, Oct. s.-General Hurst of
Chillicothr, addressed the people in the Town
Hxll last night on the issues OF the cam
paign with fairness and imphrtialily. In the
audience were the leading members OF the
prohibition party, some democrats and an en-
thusiastic compsny OF republicans. No one
could Justly find fault or critioise the speaker
The prohibitiouists went home we'll pleased,
and acknowledged that they had received
new light upon their regered doctrine. The
General show ed knowledge Of constitutional
statutory and common law which at once
gained him the confidence Of all prtseat.
He proved beyond phantom OF Q doubt that
there was vast difference between the Scott
law and the promised license law which four
times tailed in this state to re ceYe a sanction)
by the democrats. That tax was not per-
init to sell anything and that license was an
encouragement to the liquor meu in every
respect, except as to the cost OF the license,
which WAS tax. Ex Commissioner D. q.
Cory, one of the staunchest and oldest tenn
perance men and republican in this COM
munity, was chairman Of the meeting.-----
BY the way the prohibition party has Mr..
Cory on their list az one OF the forty votes
that they expect to get here. They also have
another man on their list that is OF the same
true brand who took the speaker by the hand
and said that his speech did more good in the
cause OF temperance and good government
generally than all the prohibition speeches
that be bad heard in the place.
The trustees of the NJ. f. church met. yester-
day, and organized as follows; President

Rev. Henry Miller, OF Adison, will ai-
dress the people in the town hall next Sstur-
day nigh. in the interest Of temper
ancs and the republican party. He
says partisan proh bition TO- in fact
II not in letter, snti-prohbition -
DR.. Van Cleve's sound logic and fearless ut
terances in the N. 4. church have done more
to set people right on the political question
this fsll in this town than anything that has
been done. Your correspondent could place
