GREAT FIRE IX CUARIJESTOX—A LARGE I'ORTIOX OF THE CITY IN ASIIES. FORTRESS MONROE, Deo. 13, via Balti more.—A flag of truoe uuder command of Captain Milward took Mr. Eddy, of North Carolina, to Craney island to-day. From Norfolk wo have intelligence of a most disastrous fire at Charleston, S. C. A despatch to the Not folk Day Book of to-day. from Charleston, states that a fire broka out iu that city ou Wednesday night, which was supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. At the date of the last despatch, 5 o'clock Thurs day afternoon, the fire was still burning. The Round Church, the theatre, the Institute, and other public bnildings, are stated to have been destroyed. The fire swept across Broad Street. Assistaneu had been seDt for from Augusta. The Grand Lodge of the Free and Accept ed Masons met at Richmond on Monday and elected Lewis B. Williams, of Orange, Grand Master for the ensuing year. NEW YORK, Dec. 14.—The special des patches received here from Old Point say that the fire at Charleston was the work of the ne groes. The Baltimore American of Saturday says: Our private advices from Norfolk do not make any mention connecting the slaves with the confhgration, further than that it was suppos ed to be the work of an incendiary. The fire is said bava originated in a sasb factory, near the junction of King and Broad streets; that it crossed Broad street, and to have reach ed the lustitute Hall, the Round Church and the Theatre, on Meeting street, must have passed diagonally across Clifford, Beaufort, Princess, Queen, and Chalmers streets, a dis tance of nearly a half milo through the very heart of the city. AR no mention is made of the desfraction of the City Hall, Court House Guard House, aDd Christ Church, at the four corners of Broad and Meeting streets, is to be presumed they have escaped. The Mills House, one of the principal ho tels of the city, about a halfsquare from the Round Church, ou Meeting, street, is also said to have been burned, together with the Catholic Cathedral, aud Asylum, on A;chdaie street. The fire was said to bo still raging ou Thursday evening, having continued for forty eight hours. The theatre, which is said to have been burned, is the extreme point on Meeting street, that wc are enabled to looato the extent of the conflagration, and its des truction would necessarily involve several squares of closely-built frame buildings in its rear. From an examination of the map, W3 think it likely that the Charleston Hotel bus escaped, though it is not more than a square beyond the theatre. There is another statement brought by pas sengers that the Catholic Cathedral is burnt.— This, if true* would extend the fire across King street, a distance of four or five squares west of the Institute Hall and the theatre, and would warrant the rumor that one half of the city has been destroyed. We learn that ihe fire was checked on Meeting street before it reached the largo build ing of Adams' Express-Clomp auy, on the corn er of North Market street, though most of the i-torehouses on the other side of Meeting street were destroyed or damaged. LATER. We learn that the passengers by the flag of truce from Norfolk state that the greatest ex citement prevailed tbero oa Friday morning, and that a great variety of rumors were afloat as to the origin of the conflagration. It was stated that the sash factory was fired by a free negro, who had been arrested, and confessed that it was intended as the first move for an <xfended slave insurrection. It was also rumored at Norfolk that a large number of negroes had been arrested, who had been found in possession of arms and knives, 3nd that the confession of the incendiary had been fully corroborated. Theae, however, are mere ruujors, suob as would likely be in circu lation under all the circumstances, and may or may not bo well founded. The despatch in the Norfolk papers, dated at Charleston, at G o'clock on Thursday evening, makes QO men don of a servifc insurrection. THE LIGHT SEEN AT SEA. • FORTRESS MONROE, Dec. 14, via Baltimore. —Thero has been no flag, of truce "sent out to-day, and consequently no news from Nor folk has beeo received, and there are no furth er particulars of the conflagration at Charles ton. The steamer Illinois has arrived from Port Hoyal, and reports that the pilot-boat Richard Rlvnt, of Norfolk, had arrived there. BALTUHORE, Deo. 15. I learn from the captain of the Old Point boat that ho was in formed by the captain of tho United States transport Illinois , arrived at Fortress Monroe £roui Port Royal, that he passed within six miles of Charleston harbor at ten o'clock on fbursday night, and that a tremeudous confla gration was evidently then at its height in that city- Tho reflection on 'the clouds exceeded anything he ever saw, and the whole bay, with the dark outlines if Fort Sumter, was brigbt lv illumiuated. It did not appear like the re- J flection from smouldering ruins, but from a raging, uncontrollable conflagration. This i bre hours later than the drto of the Nortolk ll'iy Rook despatch.

The Ninth Indiana fought bravely to the last. After driving the enemy into their hsr* | racks no less than five times, our foroes retired ; in good crdor.

This is a most perfect preparation, and seldom fails to dogood. It is harmless in its effects but powerfußto relieve Fain. If you use it once you will not likely be without it again. You will find it. a constant household friend, giving ease and relief just needed. Keep it constantly on hand and it will savo yon many hours of pain and suf fering. There is hardly a pain it will not ease There is hardly an accident that wili occur where it will not be useful. Should one of your family get burned or scald ed. cover tho burned part with a clbth of several thicknesses wet with the "Master of Pain," and keep the cloth saturated with it. In a short time it will draw all the fire out. It will cause a prick ling sensation—this is the fire coming out. Keep it wet with the "Master of Pain" until the pain i and urickling ceases. Let the wet cloth stay on ! fornix or fight hours, after which apply some healing ointment or sweet oil. In nearly all cases of Pain or Soreness of the Chest, Throat, Side, Back, Spine, Limbs or Joints, it will give relief.— Rub it on freely with the baud or with a flannel cloth until the skin becomes heated and burning. For soreness of the throat rub it on until it pro duces a little soreness. For Croup use it in connection with the Cough Syrup, by rubbing it on the chest. For Rheumatism and all deep seated pains, if the pain is not speedily removed by rubbing with the hand, lay a cloth wet with the liquid over ttie part affected, and pass a warm smoothing iron over it. • For Pains in the Breast, Side or Back, the same may be done. For Tootb-acbe, drop it on cotton, and apply it to the nerve of the tooth, also rub tho gums and cheeks with it. For Feet, apply the "Master of Pain" reely, and dry it in belore the fire. For Head-ache rub it on the forehead. It is called "Master of Pain." I did not give It this name—l don't like the name. When 1 first commenced making it it was without name or label. I made it and sold it by the ounce at my Drug Store. 1 had no idea then of making a business of it. Some who bought it called it Master of Pain, and by this name it became known for many miles round. And finally, when I had a label printed I wss compelled to adopt the name, Tor by that name it was known. Alter all, tho name is not so very inappropriate. It is used to alleviate or remove pain. It is put on wherever there is pain. Sometimes it will cause pain, but the result always is freedom from pain. Reader—try it—take a bottle with you—use it whenever occasion requires- give it a fair trial. PUBLIC SALE.

The World's Favorite. For Years the Standard Magazine. Pronounced the Press of the United states, THE BEST LADY'S MAGAZINE IN THE WORLD, and the cheapest. THE LITERATURE is of that kind that can l>e read aloud iu the family circle, and the clergy in immeuse numbers are subscribers for the Book. THE BEST LADY WRITERS in America contribute to its pages, and we have some that write for no other magazine. THE MUSIC is nil original, and would cost 115 cents (the price of the Book) iu the music stors; but most of it is copyrighted, and cannot be obtained except in "Godey." OUR STEEL ENGRAVINGS. All eflorts to rival us in this have ceased, and we now stand alone in this department, giving, as we do, many more and infinitely better engravings than are published in aDy other work. GODEY'S IMMENSE DOUBLE SHEET FASHION PLATES, containing, from five to seven full length Culoied lashions on each plate. Other Magazines give only two. FAR AHEAD OF ANY FASHIONS IN EU ROPE OR AMERICA. Godey's is the only woik in the world that .gives these immense plates, and they are such as to have excited the wonder of publishers and public. The publication of these plates cost SIO,OOO MORE than Fashion-plates of the old style, and nothing but our wonderfully large circulation enables us to give them. Other magazines cannot afford it.— We never spare money when the public can bo be nefitted. These fashions may be relied on. Dresses may be made after them, and the wearer will not sub ject herself to ridicule, as would he the case if she visited the huge cities dressed after the style of the plates given in some of our so called fashion magazines. OUR WOOD ENGR.I VINGS, of which we give twice or three times as many as any other magazine, are often mistaken for steel. Tliey are so far superior to any others. IMITATIONS. Beware of them. Remember that the Lady's Book is the original publication and the cheapest. If you take Godey, yon want no other magazine. Everything that is useful or ornamental iu a house can be found in Godey. DRAWING LESSONS. No other magazine gives them, and we have given enough to fill several large volumes. OUR RECEIPTS are such as can be found nowhere else. Cooking in all its variety—Confectionary— the Nursery— the Toilet—the Laundry—.the Kitchen. Receipts upon all subjects are to be fouud in the pages of the Lady's Book. We originally started this de partmeut, and have peculiar facilities for making it most perfect. This department alone is worth the. price of the Book. LADIES' WORK TABLE.

O. E. SHANNON. THE KLY DISCOVEIY WBITHY OF ANY CONFIDENCE FOK RESTORING THE liiLH m GillY. Many, since the great discovery of Prof. Wood, havejnttempted not only to imitate his restorative, but profess to have discovered somethiug that would produce results identical ; but they have all cotpe and gone, being carried away by the wonder ful results of Prof. Wood's preparation, and have been forced to leave the field to its resistless sway. Head the following : Hath, Maine, April 18th, 1859. PROP 0. J. WOOD it Co. I Gents. —The letter IJwrote you in 1856 concerning your valuable Hair Restorative, and which you have published in this vicinity and elsewhere, has given rise to numerous enquiries touching the facts in the case. The en quiries are first, is it a fact of my habitation and name, as stated in the communication; second, it is true of all therein contained; third, <tes my hair still continue to be in good order and of natural color? To all I can and answer invariably yes.- My hail is even better than in any stage of my life for 40 years past, more soft, thrifty, and better colored ; the same is true of my whiskers, and the only cause why it is not generally true, is iliat the substance is washed off by frequent ablution of the face, when if care were used by wiping the face in close connection with the whiskers, the same result will follow as the hair. I have been in the receipt of a great number of letters l-ota all parts of New England, asking me if my hair still con tinues to be good ; as there is so much fraud in the manufacture and sale of various compounds as well as this, it has, no doubt been basely imitated and been used, not oulv without any good eileot. but to absolute injury. 1 have uot used any of your Restorative of any account tor some months, and yet my hair is as good as ever, and hundteds have examined it with surprise, as 1 am now 01 years old and not a gray hair in uiy head or on my face ; and to prove this fact, I send you a loek of my hair taken off the part week, i received your favor of two quart bottles last summer, for which ,1 am very - grateful ; I gave it to my friends rid thereby induced thern to try it, many were skepti cal until after trial, and then purchased and used it with universal success. 1 will ask as a favor, that you send me a* test by which J can discover fraurt in the Restorative, sold by many, I fear, without authority from you. A pure article will insure succqss, and I believe where good effects do not follow, the failure is caused by the impure article, which curses the inventor of the good. I deem it my duty as heretofore, to keep you apprised of the continued effect on my hair, as I assure nil who enquhe of me of my unshaken opinion of its valu able results. I remain, dear sir, yours, A. C. RAYMOND. . Aaron*, Ruu Ky., Nov. 80, 1858. * PROF. O. J. WOOD : Dear Sir -.— l would certainly be doing you a great injustice not to make known to the world, the won ierfi'l, as well as the unex pected result I have experienced from using ONE bottle of your Hair Restorative. After using every kind of Restoratives extant, but without success, and finding my head nearly destitute of hair, I was finally induced to try a bottle of youi Hair K storative. Now, candor and justice compel me to announce to whoever may read this, that I now possess a new and beautiful growtli of hair, which 1 pronounce ricner and handsomer than the origi nal was. I will therefore take occasion to recom mend this invaluable remedy to ALL who may feel the necessity of it. Respectfully yours, REV. S. ALLEN BROCK. P.S.—This testimonial of my approbation foi your valuable medicine (as you are aware of) is unsolicited : —but if you thiuk it worthy a place among the rest, insert if you wish ; if not destroy and say nothing. Yours, &c., Rev. S. A. B. The Restorative is put up in bottles of three sites, viz : large medium, and small , the small holds | a pint and retails for one dollar per bottle d the mediums hold at least twenty per cent more iu proportion than the small, retails lor two dollars der bottle; the large holdsaquait, 40 per cent; more m proportion and retails for $3 a bottle.

ANTHONY'S FIRE, and hide D t E whole class of complaints arising from IMPURITY or THB BLOOD. This compound will be found a groat pro-- moter of health; when taken in the spring, to expel the foul humors which fester in the blood at that season of thefcar. By the time ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, i/ not assisted to do ; this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the ■vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when von find it is ob structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; but with liiis pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any tiling else. During late years the public have been mis led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any. Sarsapa i rilla. but often no curative properties whatev er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which ilood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still wc call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And we think we have ground far believing it has virtues which are irre.-istible by the offlLnarv run of the diseases it is intend ed to cure. In order to secure their complete I eradication from the system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle. PREPARED BY DR. J. €. AYER & CO. / LOWELL, MASS.
