A very destructive fire occurred at the farm
near Sheridan, of Michael O'Connor, Of the firm
of NJ. O'Connor & Co., this city, about 10 o'clock,
on Wednesday night, burning his hay-barn and

valuable buggy, harness, four horses, about 155
tons of hay, and other valuable property. The
total loss is estimated at six or seven thousand

taneous combustion of hay lately harvested. The
barn the finest in the county.

LOWER THAN INMANY YEARS
In Accordance with the Public Demand
The New appraisement Is Approved.
The Action of the Board in Ordering the Re-
ducton of Twenty Per Cent. in Center
Township Upheld by a Legal Opinion.

The County Board of Equalization has had
sessions under difficulties but it completed its
business yesterday as the people wanted it to
thus giving Marion county, for the first time in
several decades. anything like reasonable real
estate tax valuation. At the outset there was
diversity of opinion but the fnaiity found all
the members in accord. 1t was thought the
Van Vorhis opinion would further complicate
matters, and lead not only to a muddle of the
records. but long and serious litigation. 1t
seems, however, that the members came
to their last formal meeting with one pur-
pose only and that was to receive the returns
of the reappraisement through the auditor on
the certiication of the assessor to that officer
that they are correct. In little informal talk
preceding the presentation Of the assessors re-
port. the question suggested by the Van vorhis
opinion vas lightly touched upon without any
serious difference, the expression of Mr. How
land being accepted as the view entertained by
his fellow members He said. tapping the table
with his right forefn:er and giving his words
an unmistakable emphasis, This is to be the
only return we have had, the only legal one,
notwithstanding what we have done heretofore.
1t must stand as the assessors work, and all we
have to do is to accept it." Mr. Baldwin,
eqally as emphatic, conceded with this ex-
preston. 1t was suggested, though, that
further legal opinion would not go amiss, and
following this Mr. Ketcham was sent for and
requested to review the questions set forth in
the Van Vorhis opinion. He told the board he
would be ready by o'clock in the afternoon
with his written conclusions.
In the meantime Assessor Quill was complet-
ing the formalities of certifcation of his re-
turns to the auditor, and the board utilized its
time by considering a few clerical corrections
and changes in the list of corporations and
banks. These were covered by reducing the
Eagle machine works valuation to $50, 900, that
Of the Indiana Insurance Company to $24, 900,
and by giving the Indianapolis Gas Company a
cut of $25. 900, thus placing its assessment at
$475000. The Pneumatic Company also came
in for share Of this good fortune, by having its
tax value reduced from $4,000 to S., COO. BY
this time the assessor had closed up mis- bust
ness with the auditor, who, in the person of his
deputy, John Clinton, presented to the board
the following returns of Center township values:

LETTER FROM FAUQUIER.

ICo-rcspondcnce of the Alexandria GAzErrE.l
BROAD RUN STATION, Feb. 4.-For the
last two days the snow and wind have been
bllzzording around us with fury, as if pcs
sescd ofeu evil spirit. Thermometers range
at G. and s. above zero, and pumps, wells
aud branches frozen. 1t is really difficult
for man and beast to get water. None
can know how bitterly the poor suffer, es-
pecialIy the aged poor Having barely sui
ticiency for food aud clothing, few OF them
are prepared to resist the arctic wave That
is now overwhelming US. An Old couple
near our town, took to their bed Tuesday
and to.day were found by kind neighbor
still abed, with no fuel and but little pro
visions TO keep body and soul together.
Cattle food is becoming scarce. fine young
ial mer took two days to haul one load OF
fodder eight miles. SO much was the snow
driftcd, and the hills were SO steep, be
had TO put four oxen and four horse;
to the wagon. A report is just i'll
that good lady over the Prince William
line, sent young man TO cut wood for an
old woman who lived alone-he didn't GO.
To day she was found frozen to death.
Bachelors must have . hard time OF 1t !;
quite spry young fellow about four miles
away, came in at night and finding the
pitcher oil water had frozen through and
through, in his cold and comfortless room,
considered the subject" it to bed
with him and thawed it out. By the fire it
would have broken.
There is quite deal OF chat as to the i'm.
mense number of bags Of fertilizer used ID
Virginia in 1854, amounting TO about Co.,
GOO. Some of the unfortunate wheat grow
ers grumble, and say they believe they
must have used q little sand on their last
crop. It comes hard just now on the poor
| fellows. What with the small crop of wheat
and the big fertilizer bills to pay, even yet,
the good old COW will have to be sold to
satisfy the demand. "Only think of it,"
said one, twenty pounds of sand or marble
dust to the bag would, at the prices we pay,
amount to $1S0000. All for nothing.
We have had no mail train to-day, and
feel as if out Of the turmoil of the city.
The owner of Huntley, a farm near here,
dressed not long ago five hogs, which
weighed l $50 pounds, one of them weigh.
ing 400 pounds. This hog, converted into
bacon and sold at 123 cents per pound,
would being about $50. They were fed
about twelve ears of corn each since they
were taken Off the acorn mast. The

LOCAL OPTION,

The State Senate committee on General
Laws held a meeting on Saturday, when the
local option bill passed by the House OF Del
egates was taken up, and several ministers,
a delegation OF Good Templars, and several
friends of temperance who were present ad-
dressed the committee and proposed several
amendments.
The committee then commenced to con-
slider the bill.
An amendment was proposed and adopt.
ed requiring the petition for an election to
be signed by nc..tonrth, instead of one fifth,
of the voters, &c.
Several other amendments were adopted,
among them two making the law apply to
cities as we'll as to counties and making it
applicable to distilleries now established as
we'll as those hereafter 10 be put into opera
ton.
Mr.. Heaton pronounced the whole thing
n 'humbug." He did not favor prohibition
because it does not prohibit. He offered an
amendment, which was agreed to, which
provides that in these elections the ballots
used shall have on the m "for" or against
taxing the sale of Intoxicating liquors"
Mr.. Heaton's theory Was that if licenses are
not granted liquor will he sold anyhow, ana
he thought it better that people III 'o''hs
should know whether they are VOTING 10 US
prive the State of it's evenue or not.
Mr.. Staples said that I1e was warm aa'
vocate of the bill as it CRIME from me House,
but that with the amendments to 1t put on
by other members he would have to oppose
it. He therefore moved that the bill he re-
ported adversely. -, :,
This motion was carried, and the bill will
no renorted with the recommendation that
it do not pass.
Mr.. Berry gave notice that he would in
troduce an independent bill on the subject.

Those Railroad Gates.

| TO The editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
1t has been q matter of great interest to
your country neighbors tosce the outcome OF
the law passed by your honorable City Coun-
ell in regard to tho gates to be placed Mt the
points in your city where the said roads
cross the streets, said streets being the prn-
clpa avenues for your country ncighbors
and customers to reach the business portion
of your city. 1t was stated in your issue OF
Saturday last that "&r. II. II. Garter, sup.
erntendeut of the 3. & P. r. r., had been
ia consultation with the Committee on
Streets of the City Council in reference to
the erection Of the gates, and that he Mr..
c. had stated it would cost SIS 900 year to
operate and erect three gates, and that q
hagman would accomplish the same pur-
pose, etc. 1t is wellknown fact that rail.
roads always try and generally succeed in
getting oil they can and giving as little as
possible in return, and they will try TO prove
10 your honorable City Council that the flag
man svW do as well, and if so will sa7e a
great deal, as they will be able to get men
TO do that work at from 90 cents to 81 per
day. In most of the cities north ofyou they
have been compelled to erect the gates, and
your council should make them do the same.
They have g. fiagman now who is supposed
to BIO far enough ahead of trains to give
warning, but it is fact that can DO easily
proved that he is seldom more than few
yards ahead of it, and from the files of your
own paper and of late dates any one can see
several accounts of narrow escapes thatha
been made. Another law should have been
passed at the same time in regard to not al
lowing freight trains to stop en- the streets
and block them up for long time, from
Duke street to the local depot, and oblige
persons to walk or drive several blocks out
Of their way in order to pass them. 1t is
sincerely hoped by your country neighbors,
who have to come to your city to make their
purchases, and where they spend all of their
money, that the honorable City Council will
not allow themselves to be forced from their
good law, but that they will compel the
railroads to fulfill it to the letter, and pro.
tect not only your own citizens, but your
county neighbors and customers, and dothe
same in Alexandria as they have had to do
in Washington, Baltimore, and all other
places. Possibly, after having to pay heavy
damages for soma serious accident that is
liable to occur at any time, they may find
that it would have been cheaper TO have
erected The gates. RUsTICUs.
