FIRE.-A FIRE was discovered in
one of the rooms ofsthe second story
of John NJ. Adkins store house,
Saturday night about 10 o'clock,
and an alarm Immediately sounded.
When the room was entered, it was
found to be caused by a lot of coffin
boxes burning, Which caught from
a stove pipe passing up through the
room. The fire was soon under
control, and the damage resulting
will not exceed $50. The people
responded to the alarm and our
hook and ladder boys were soon on
the ground. Had this fire been
later in the night, the whole square,
which is principally frame build
ings, no doubt would have gone up
in smoke. As it was property
owners on the same square and the
square Immediately opposite, were
pretty badly scared.

The Pittsburg Dispatch directs
attention to an aspect Of the road
question, now receiving consider,-
tion in the press, which is neglected
by all who deal with the subject
The country roads are owned by
the public, used by it, and upon it
is laid the duty OF caring for them.
as rule, all over the land, the work
of maintenance and repair is not
done. Public money is spent in the
pretence of doing it; but nothing
can be expected of a system Of man
agement in which the penalties of
bad work are not imposed on those
directing it. There was a time,
says the Dispatch, when respect
able PERCENTAGE of roads was i'm
proved and operated by corpora
tons, and the roads thus maintained
were the best roads. The lapse of
these roads, or most of them, to
public ownership has distinctly re-
suited in deterioration of the
character of the roads. Corporte
management has its abuses; but
they are insignificant and harmless
in comparison with the abuse of
public management.
