TUE BOSTON CONFLAGRA1 ION.

The frightful conflagration in Boston,
by which property valued at five mil
lion dollars was destroyed, following so
close upon the very destructive fire in
Lynn, a town only few miles distant,
constitutes very striking coincidence.
The flames at first threatened to reduce
20 ashes the whole of the most impor-
tant business section Of the city. in
which case it would have reached the
proportions Of the famous confiagration
that took place many years ago, and
which has only been surpassed in this
country in extent and destructiveness
by the confagration that laid Chicago
in ruins.
All of our cities that are situated on
the great lakes, or adjacent to the
ocean. are constantly liable to the same
visitation. as the flames are likely to be
famed by the terrific gales that are 80
often blowing from the water towards
the land. Boston is especially exposed
to this danger, as the eastern winds are
driven i'm to the city with irresistible
force from the sea, converting burp-
ing house into furnace, and in winter
time freezing the water in the hose.
There were two notable facts about
the recent confiagration. In the first
place, it began in a building that was
supposed to be absolutely fire-proof,
having been put together upon the most
modern and improved plans with that
view on account of the vast amount of
valuable goods that were expected to
be stored in it. The testimony of eye
witnesses is that this fire-proof building
was devoured by the flames with as
much rapidity as if it had been finder
box.
In the second place, the fire was I'M
doubtedly attributable to electric wires
that had bsen introduced into one Of
the rooms of the establishment where
the conflagration began. This is new
phase of the element Of danger which
such wires constitute. Hitherto this
danger has not developed itself beyond
the killing of an imprudent lineman
who has brought himself in contact
with the current, or the destruction of
the life of some animal that had been
inadvertently exposed to it, Hence
forth the electric wires running into
buildings will be regarded with more
suspicion, and will very probably be
more carefully insulated.

land. Steps will also be taken with a
view 10 bringing about some degree Of
equality in the freight charges Of our
railways, and the defects Of our system
of public roads will be considered and
legislative assistance sought to remedy
them. In addition. an effort will be
made to put certain Of our agricultural
institutions under the legal control OF
practical farmers.
The only encouraging feature in The
present situation of our Virginia farm
ers is their firm resolution TO combine
TO secure what will be beneficial to them
all. Their weakness hitherto has lain
in their lack Of cooperation, although
there has always been the same reason
why they should act together. There
can be no question whatever that they
can be relieved OF many of the present
disadvantages that obstruct their pro-
gress by legislation in their interest,
and their demand for this legislation is
supported by public sentiment, and
should be acceded 10.
Truly, our agriculturists are OPP
pressed, but unfortunately they are
more oppressed by circumstances which
local law makers have no power to
alter or remove than by unequal legis-
iative provisions. Let them. however,
secure change in these provisions and
make all additions that their interests
require. This is the only practical step
that they can take to improve their con-
dition in the immediate future.
AT the same time, let them and their
associates throughout the Union re-
solve that at the first national election
they will as body cast their votes in
favor Of radical reduction of a tariff
that directly and indirectly imposes
such burdens upon the class to which
they belong, whether they dwell in
Southside Virginia or in the valleys OF
Vermont and Massachusetts,. A COM
mon cry is being raised by the farmers
over the whole extent of the Union,
and the revolution in political ssnti-
ment on this account that began in
Iowa must be repeated and pressed in
every Commonwealth. II the farming
class of the North had been uninfu-
enced by sectional fears and antipathies,
Cleveland would never have met with
defeat on the tariff issue. There are
many evidences that the present tariff is
bearing so heavily on this class that at
the next election its members will fol-
low the dictates of their practical in
ierests rather than the promp ings Of
their prejudices.

ing az headlands only those points
that have universally been considered
such BY oystermen and others familiar
with the river, Hog Island flats, ac-
cordipg to the rule laid down by the
arbitrators, is in Virginia. BY an act
passed at the last session Of the Legisla-
ture this grclnd was thrown open to
citizens Of Virginia for planting oysters.
In accordance with the law 1t was as
signed TO citizen Of Northumberland
county, who at once took possession,
and expended large sums Of money in
planting oysters on 1t, and has paid Vir-
ginia a good rental for the privilege.
From the beginning this lease OF the
State has been molested by dredgers,
and in order to restrain them special
commission was issued to an officer,
who was paid and furnished boat by
the lessee, without any cost to the State,
TO protect these flats from depreciation.

WE referred yesterday to the incon.
sistency of Harrison's professions IN
favor of civil service reform at the
time that Clarkson was deliberately re.
moving thousands of officials simply
because they were Democratic ap-
pointees. In making an examination
of Mr. Wanamaker' annual report as
Postmaster General, We find the follow
ing expression of opinion. which, in
the light Of his conduct, has the un-
mistakable ring of hypocrisy:
with the advent of new Post
master General he says, "the whole
organization at the top is changed, aud
the work falls into unframed hands.
In our form of government,
this constant change will continue, but
from business point of view, thus to
unsettle the service, aud to be always
educating new sets of men. cannot be
beneficial to any department"
Everyone will subscribe TO the
of this utterance, but why
make so just and accurate a statement.
and then act upon principle
Numerically in opposition; why, in
deed, unless the writer is a political
Pecksniff.
