BENTON WOOLLEN M I LLS BURNED LOSS J2-' 1,000. Abont half-past one o'clock this morning a Are broke out in the Kenton Woollen Mills on Vront street, between Scott and Greenup, and in a very short time the entire establishment, one of the most extensive and complete of the kind in the West, was totally destroyed, together with all of the machinery, and nearly all tbe stock on hand. The fire originated in the drying room, immediately over the boilers, and was caused, it is supposed, by a defective fine The flames, when first discovered, wore bursting out of.the windows, and so rapidly did lhev spread that by the time the engines arrived the whole building was enveloped. The mill which belonged to Messrs. Glaser Sc Brother, of Cincinnati, had been in operation abont two years, and gave employment to one hundred and nlty persons, about half of them Messrs GInser A Brother estimate their loss at 8125 000, SKM.OOO of which is in machinery, consisting of twenty-four broad Crompton looms thirteen narrow Crompton looms, six nets of cards, two dressing frames, two wool nickers two 430 spindle mules, seven 210 spindle tacks besides a number of hydraulic presses, and shearing and finishing machinery, all of tbe lutest and most improved patterns. The stock of fancy cassimeres on hand was quite large In aduition to which all the looms, nob bins 'and spools were filled with yarn in process of manufacture. A small quantity ot wool, and about forty or fifty barrels of dye stuffs were saved. Kverything else was lost. Messrs. Glaser A Brother were i nsu red for ? 170.000. The follow ing companies are the principal losers: Commercial, Albany, New York, SilOO; Nor wich of New York city, SiSOO; Loriilavil, do., tWXK)-' Arctic, do., $5000; Tradcsmens'. do.. $3000; Jefferson, do., !000; Pacitlc, do., S2IK)0; Baltic, io 2r00; North America, do., $"0')0; North America, of Philadelphia, 3000: Stale of Penu- Jvlvania, of Philadelphia, fc'JOOO; Koynl. of iiveroool, England, SSHKi; United Life, of Cov ington.

The;floor of the Covington and Cincinnati Suspension Bridge was slightly scorched, and in veral of the guy-ropes burned in two. The company also lost !oine timber, which was lying in'an alley between the mill and the bridge. A stable, belonging to Mr. John F. Hunter, fronting on Scott street, was also cati anmeri. One of the Cincinnati steam engines came across the bridge and played upon the fire. The Covington engine, U. S.Grant, was early at the conflagration, and the company worked manfully, but their efforts to save the building were fruitless. A dozen engines could not have checked the devouring element. This is the most disastrous fire that has visited our city for many years. Cincinnati Ecenimj Times, Uh inst. Mr. Charles Reade and His Critics. Mr, Reade Bends to a Loudon paper the fol lowing letter: To the Editor of the London Sun. Sin I have to thank you for some kind words relative to a Matement lately put forth, that my story, Griffith Gaunt," Is compounded from two In dependent and original tales lu Household Words. Will you oblige me by stating, as the truth Is that I never saw either of those tales, nor read one line of them. By the extracts I am con vinced they are simply short stories founded on the cte celebre "Pivandiere." The bare out line of that true narrative is made use of In tbe econcLand third volumes of "Griffith Gaunt," &nd hence, no doubt, has arisen a part ial re temblance between three tales of very different calibre, based, however, upon one great fact. In the parallel that has been drawn, all the points of difl'erence between "Griffith Gaunt" and his predecessors appear to be fraudulently oppressed, of course by this artlfiee, and by one criti caster wordlag In his own languaite the three English plots, a slight similarity may be luude to appear a great one. "When two short tales and one three-volume novel are all based on an outline, that would so into a page, the short tales mutt, by trie na ture of things, be more indebted to the hUtori n rr-rnrd than the volninlnous fiction can be. Yet the editor of t he Mound Tattle picks me out ot the three siory-ieners an lue uuu jjjukuw ibl.; tri-volnmlnous Me.
