dispatches Of yesterday, saying that at

and sounds OF explosions in the direction
OF Mont Peee. The population OF Fort de

Later dispatches under yesterdays date,
say that fire was falling at lie Garbet, Ga
southern suburb of ST. Pierre on the west
side of the island), and that the inhabi-
tants and troops had evacuated the place.
No further fatalities had occurred
The dispatches received here also refer
TO the departure Of Gov. L'Nuerre, ac,

Of the legislature OF Martinique, yester.

No confirmation has been received here
OF the dispatches reporting that Fort de

According TO the will as originally drafted
he left $1,000 TO Flora NJ. Newton Of Syra-

the common council was held Jan. 4,

without the approval of the mayor and
with his objections thereto, whereupon
the ordinance. with the message OF the
mayor. was laid over to the next meeting,
which by adjournment, was 10 be held

Of the council was at the council chamDer
at Q o'clock on Jan. 9Th, but no quorum
was present and he directed the clerk
of the common council TO read the roll
call at 9:35 o'clock, and as none or the
members responded or appeared In the
council chamber TO transact any business.
he declared the meeting adjourned for
lack OF a quorum.
