It is in con templation to reorganize the uforemeuttoucd .Austrian Regiment upon n new basis. The nomination of Sr. General Baron Nei Ercte as Commander of the Second Territorial Military Division has been published. His headquarters are at Puebla. It i9 said that General Neiprete, with the force under his com mand, will 6hortly commence a campaign of reconstruction through Huusteca, and will return to Tnmpico. The presence of General Neipreto in Puebla, the Bending of General Mejia to !?an Luis, the substituting of M. Rosas Landa for General Tabera, give assurance ot approaching joint and vigorous operations. It is reported that the Liberals have exercised terrible retaliations in Monterey. One M. Cor nier, who refused to pay a force loan ol thirty thousand dollars, was shot. The Bishop of Monterey, accompanied by ihe clergy of his Diocese. 'is a refugee in San Louis Putosi. . The Council of Ministers have had under their consideration the revision of the last law rela tive to the rights ol redemption. It was expected that this fiscal measure would be modified favorably to the purchasers of national property. It is said that during General Sheridan's stay on the frontier of Texas, he passed the greater part of his time in Matatnoras, where he had frequent interviews with the Juarez Generals, and it is assumed that he came on a confidential missiou to them from the Government of tbe United States. The Eatatttte says: "It is assured that by ..virtue ot the new arrangements entered iuto fct.tween this Government and the Company, that the eerylc.fi ot the Kcrth Ametlcan line will cea.ee io be required for New York, and that the steamers will to run henceforth between Vera Cruz and New Orleans.

A Bank Messenger Robbed of $24,500 The Thief Pursued, Arrested, and Committed for Trial All the Stolen Property Recovered. It is not many days since a banker ar.d broker was assaulted at the door of his office by a desperate ruffian, who sought to secure pos session of a tin cash-box containing a large amount of money, checks, and drafts; but he was prevented in this by the determined resist ance of Mr. Craven, the" broker thus attacked. We have now another instance of this kind to record. About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon Mr. Moses Cummings, the messenger of th Broadway Bank, situated on tho corner of Broadway arid Park Place, came out of the Union Bank, iu Wall street, and started up that thoroughfare towards Broadway. He curried in bis hand a large bank pocket-book, in which were depo sited United States gold certificates of the value ot $-1000, a number of checks and drafts for the turn of $20,000, and $.100 in United States Trea sury notes, the property of the bank in which Mr. Cunimings is employed. As he passed tde corner of Nassau street, a man came up suddenly behind him and snatched the pocket book and its valuable contents trom the hand of the unwary messenger, and theu started up the street on a quick run. Mr. Cum mioga was at firct completely dazed by the oc currence, but in a moment recovered his pre sence of mind, and darted alter bis dcspoilcr, shoutin? as he ran, "Stop thief." The street was crowded at the time, and it appeared diffi cult to determine who the tiuef could be. A carman, however, named James Nelson, heard the hue and cry e-t up bvthe messemrer. sprang fiom his cart and Intercepted the (lying ihiet, succeeding atter considerable trouble in hold ing him until Mr. Cumtniuirs cume up and as nisied. Whcu thus secured the audac'ous thief dropped the pocket-book on the side walk, where it ili'gorgod all the valuable papers and bills, 'these were all lecovercd intuit, however, and returned to tho custody of the bunk mes-eneer. Officer Gilieathcr, of the First Precinct, who was on duty near by, was apprised of the fact-t in the case, and he at once took the detected fellow into custody, and escorted him to the New Street fetation Iiou"e. On arrivinsr there the piisoner pave his name as Joseph II. Clin ton. He was searched, but there was nothing found in his possession to add to the evidence already procured. This done, the prisoner was arraim'd before Alderman Coman, at die Tombs Police Court, when he was committed for trial without bail, Mr. Cummings having ma le the necessary affidavits. Clinton is twenty-two years of age, and a na tive of Ireland. He stated that he resided iu LesbroFBes street, and that be was a painter by trade. Desoite the facts of his being cauerht in tbe act, and with the stolen property in his pos twssion. the prisoner had the hardihood to plead act trullty.

JLowh About laoo.OOO. About 9 o'clock this morning an alarm of fire was cent by telegraph from the Sixteenth Ward to the Central Station, and upon arriving at (ilrard avenue and Ocrmanlown road, we discovered that an immense factory, situated on the corner, was wrapped in flames, and threat ened with immediate destruction. The firemen were promptly at their posts nnd woiked with herculean might for three hours to subdue the flumes, but the fiery elemeut gained a fierce headway, and it was soon manl iest that nothing of the main building could be saved. The structure alluded to has a front of about four hundred feet on Germantown Road. The main building was five stories hitih. with an additional edifice of lour stories, and a wing of three stories in height. The fire broke out first in the "picker-room,' on the hith floor ot the main buildinv, about 0 o'clock, and being beyond reach, the flames made rapid encroachments on the main build ine, reducing it to a mass of ruins in little more thnn an hour's time. The tire thou leaped over Into the four-story structure, extending several hunnred feet on Canal street, and buned out the upper stories ot that and the top story of the building, three stories in height, lust beyond. Observing tho havoc of the flumes it seemed best for the Chief Engineer nnd his Assistants to flood the whole place with water, and thus save as much of the immense structure as pos sible, without regard to the damage I hat might be inflicted upon tbe machinery and stock within. This course was adopted with benefit, as much of the small bnildiiigBjwns saved from total destruction. E?323SS3 ESa rS;I9 The police, firemen, operatives, aud citizens succeeded in removing a large quantity of stock and some valunkle macuinery be tore the fire reached certain portions of the building, but the bulk of the stoik of materials and of the machinery had to remain to be totally de strojed. rC28 One of the operatives, Miss Elizabeth Grim shaw. a prcpos-essing ywung lady, was observed to rush frantically out of the edifice shortly after the lire broke out, and n number ol persons supposing that her clothes were on fire, rashly cast upon her several heavy bales of cotton, hoping thus to smother the flumes in time to save the poor girl's life. When she whs extricated she was quite un conscious, and upon beiusr removed to tho Penn sylvania Hospital, in the ambulance of the (ilobe Fire Company, it was discovered that tbe young lady had received serious internal inju res, irom which it is leared she will not recover. The whole of the factory buildings were a part of the property of Isaac Biuswanger, and this gentlemnu's loss is rouahly estimated at 950,000. The structure was kuow"n as the Globe Mills tho oldest establishment ot the kind in this city. The first storv of the main building was occu pied by John Wilkinson, cotton sninner. Stock and machinery damaced mainly by water to the extent of $20(10, fully insured. The second floor was occupied by Holt & Eirk licad. Loss about $1000; insured. Third-story leased bv Major-Ueneral Robert Patterson, as a cotton store-room. Entire stock nestroyed. Loss $15,000, insured. The touith floor was occupied by I. F. Mid night, as a zephyr miinu factory. The entire stock of poods aud niatetial, and a large lot of valuable niachmeiy were an totally destroyed. Mr. Midnight's loss Is about $20,000, which is only partially covered by Insurance. Tho fifth story was rented by John E. Frv and William J. Derbyshire. The loss of these tren- tlt nien will loot up about $9000, upon which they have au insurance of $(000. Henry Tinner occuoied a portion of the wing. His loss is about $2000. insured. There were others doing business In this im mense establishment, the particulars ol whose losses we could uot obtniu. Several persons were slightly injured by jump ing out of the windows duriug the contla r a Hon. Lizzie Brophy was severely injured mtbrually ty jumping trom a wmaow. A Quarrel Among Paper Collar Makers. There is at present a quarrel existing between the manufacturers of paper collars, culls, shirt-bosoms, and other articles of that description, which bids fair to rival the great iudia-rnbber controversy which occupied the courts of the land so many weary years. Since the breaking out of the late Rebellion, the paper-collar business has increased to nearly ten times what it was before hostilities com menced, owing to the demand among soldiers and sailors tor those articles. There is, at the I resent time, allot' $10,000,000 invested in the manufacture of paper collars and cuffs; and from 3000 to 5000 persons are furnished employ ment in this branch of business. Unfortunately, a quarrel has arisen amone them, and there is a prospect that the lawyers will absorb a good share of the profits. The quarrel hinges upon patents. From the best information we cm gather, the first patent for tpaper-collais was issued in 1854 ro Walter Hunt, of New York, who is said to have been the inventor of the sewing-machine. and also ot a diaper-pin. Each one of these articles has since made tbe foitune of several gentlemen, out iur. Hunt laded to acquire a for tune. After his death, Lockwood, of this city, bought the paper-collar patent Irom the widow. The orimnal patent cranted to Mr. Hunt was lor a collar manutactured from a comUnntinn ot paper and muslin, aud that gentleman, in his application, distinctly savs that paper collars were previously in nse. ana mat all he claims is the introduction ot the muslin. As early as 18X2. and from that time to the present, rnpor collars and cutis have been worn but no patent whs issued previous to the one ranted to Mr. Hunt. Mr. Lockwood has had t lie patu.t renewed several times, and eacli tune bus claimed more than Mr. Huut ever conrem- nlaled. until now it is assorted that tuo old original patent covers not only paper and muslin collars, but collars maae ot paper alone, iir. Loci. wood, and several omer eeutiemnu eimu-geu iu the business, merged their interests find formed the ''Union Paper Collar Compauv," ar.d under this name have notified other dealers that the claimed a monopoly or tho busiur Huits hHve been commenced npainst several manufacturer.', and letttil (balers have been warned aguiut selling colitis of any other make than their. The Union Company is understood to have licensed twelve persons to manui.ictuie their collars, piomi-inir to rupprexs all infringements ol their rightb with, n three month-". Tho three months have ueuiiy elapsed, and although leual steps have hem tiikpn lookin? to that end.no other nianulact in ers f.ave vet been suppressed. Ye-'terdav a number ot the paper collar manu- laoturer met tor the purpose ot completing an Association and raisimr funds to defend all suits bioimnt acainst themselves or customers by the Union Company. These geutlemen deny the validity of any paper-collar patent which does not recognize muslin as oni of the component parts ol ihe collar, aud ar resolved to tight tho "Union Company" on that line. "The Union Company" publishes the uamef of tifteen lawyers employed to prosecute their chbcs, and doubtless th new Association will employ an equal number, so that there is a prospect of plenty of litigation before the ma ler Is finally settled.

We have thought that the lreciuent expose of the various swindling organizations now abounding in the country would deter others from entering into such schemes. But it seems we are mistaken. In the universal desire to eet rich last, these fraudulent concerns are em gendered. There are of course some gilts enter nriRPH rhht nr not onlv leural and Droner. but laudable for their benevolent objects. It is by takme advantage ot tne lair name ot these that the swindlers hope to succeed in pushing their neianous schemes throuuti. We had the pleasure ot receiving a specious looking document lust evening, postmarked Williamsburg, JSew York. On openinc it we could hardly retrain irom outwara signs ot pleasure at finding the fickle goddess was once mote to prove propitious to us. Owing to some lucky thought or philanthropic impulse on the part ot tne uirectors ot a uut, lin'erpnse." they had selected us as the fortunate recipient of their luvois. The scheme was as follows: "$401,000 worth of rich and elegant lewelrv" would bo distri buted amongst the favorites of fortune, irre spective ot the intrinsic value oi tue several nieces, lor the low price of $2 each. The usual formality of paying twenty-five cents toknov what vou wanted had or course to be crone through first.
