I I CITY INTELLIGENCES IOB ADDITIONAL LOCAL ITEMS SEE THIBD PAOK.J A Disastrous Fiek This morning, a short time after 12 o'clock, the large brick building owned by Joanna Longslretri and oocupiad by J. KiiRh Kitter & Co,, No. 22a Churoli street, be tween Hecond andTnlrd, was dlBOoveredon Are. u he private watchman of the establishment. JOHhua lieesley, was making his rounds, ex amining the premises, when he saw flames Issuing from a window on the first floor of the preiniHes. Jle Rave the alarm, and Mr. Hitler and two of hi sons, then sleeping in the building, were informed of the conlluaraUon going on. Mr. Hitter trained the roof, and from there dropped the keys of the doors down to the watchman. In order that the latter might Ruin access to the lower part of the building. An alarm was then sounded from box 61, at the comer of Third and Market streets, and the firemen were soon at the scene. Meeting with no rexlstance, but. aided by the combustible dry goods with which the building was well stocked, the flames rushed upward with great rapidity, and soon reached the roof of tiie bulldin?, baying destroyed everything in the Shape of slock in their progress upward. Messrs. Hitter & Co. had Just received an ex tensive assortment of silks, while goods, etc., which by them were valued at from $18,000 to 820,000. On this stock they have an insurance of $10,000, as follows: Reliance, of Philadelphia, $5000; Philadelphia, JI000-, Manhattan, of New York, $5000; and Metropolitan, S2000. The building, which Is built of brick, and four Btorles lu height. Is owned by Mr. Longstrotn, and Is supposed to be fully covered by in surance. From this building the flames assailed those udjolning, but thoenorgella inauner In which t,m firemen worked prevented their serious Damage by Are, and they were perfectly deluged with water. No. 227 was occupied by Messrs. Ivlus & Horner general dealers In dry goods, on the first floor; Mr. K. Knyser, dry goods Jobber, vai established on the second: and the remain ing upper stories were used as a hoop skirt inanutuclory. The goods and working mute rials iu all the rooms of this building wore greatly damaged by water. How the Are originated is yet hidden In mys tery. Mr. Hitter and the two young meu escaped trom the building by means of a trap door tli rough the roor, their retreat down stairs being cut off by the flames. A Robbery oh the Schuylkill. On Mon day afternoon last, one Patrick Larklns saw a man named Joseph Clark moving along in an Intoxicated state. From previous observations made by him, Patrick was assured that Clark had money npon his person. Some time after Clark went down Into the cabin of the canal boat I. M Benton, lylnaln the Falrmount locks. Allowing .sufficient time to elapse for .Clark to succumb to the soporlflo Influence! Lar klns followed him down Into the cabin, and there found him asleep, and without any com punction rifled Clark's pockets.laklng a pooket book containing a promissory note for 1500 and seventy-five dollars in greenbacks. Clark soon after learned of this loss, and obtained a de scription of the man who had visited the boat. Information wasgiveu Lieutenant Connelly, who despatched Officers Ewiug and Ualton. in pursuit of the culprit. Patrick was arrested in the vicinity yesterday by these ollloors; and at a hearing before Aldermnn Patchel, he was committed In default of $1500 bail. Lieutenant Connelly visited the residence of Larklns, Sr., at Twenty-fifth and Pine st reets, and found the cover of the pocket-book in the yard, and the promissory note in a drawer of a bureau, In one of the upper rooms of the house. The prisoner acknowledged the crime. He Is about twenty-five ycurs of age, goes uuder the alias of "Caflle," and Is well known to our police officers. . A Damper was put upon everything yes terday In the shape of a copious fall of rain, which varied the monotony of Its continuance with drizzling and pouring. As might be ex pected on sucq a day, business was not brisk to outside obsei vaiiou and everybody looked dull. During the thunderstorm In the morning, the lightning struck; telegraphic pole stand ing but a short distance from the Oakdale Park ticket-office, at once demolishing It, and Whirling the splinters in all directions. Burely this first of May, on which the weather determined to be as surly and disagreeable as possible, boded no good, especially for many who were destined to change their residing places; for moving operations of themselves are fraught with little pleasure and great trou ble even on a pleasant day, but a shower of rain, fluctuating In power, must of all things dampen the little existing ardor for moving, making It a most displeasing and highly disa srreeable transaction. To-day we witness a reaction. Dark heavy clouds have given way to a clear blue ;sky. The murky air Is lighted np and warmed.

Comb to Grief Again. Colonel James Buchanan Cross, one of the most accomplished swindlers that ever breathed the breath of life, has come to grief again. His operations In this city and State In times past still linger in the memory of our cltlssenB, and we doubt H any ine familiar with them will express regret at ihe fact that the Colonel is again ;?JeP,ady; It seems that he has been at his old tricks Of trade in Chicago, and having In divers unwar rantable ways succeeded in replenishing his nurse In that locality, proceeded thence to New "York city .and took np his quarters at the Metro politan Hotel, where he was living aftr a very comfortable and elegant ashton on his Ill gotten means. The police authorities of Chi caeo, however, contrived to learn of his where abouts, and a day or two ago they telegraphed to New York, requesting that the Colonel might be regained of his liberty to such an extent that he could be readily found when wanted. a New York detective thereupon waited upon ,e Colonel at his hotel, "d together ' they r.ro- Cross now awaits the arrival of the Chicago mAals who will dulyconvoy him to the scene of his nicest exploits. We sincerely hope he vlll there be disposed of for some time to come. Ak Interesting Mebtiho. A meeting will be held at the Town Hall.

A fla.VTV 00 had been previously THE DAILY EVENING The Cork Kxcmanox Association Mbbtino this mokninu to consider the chanob of Namk, ihls morning, at half-past !1 o'clock, a special meeting of "The Corn Kxchange Asso elation" was held at their rooms, at the corner of Second and Hold streets, to consider the pro posed change In the name of the Association. Howard Hinchman, Ksq., the President of the Associntion, In stating the object of the meet ing, said: "You are assembled, gentlemen, for the purpose ol taking preliminary action upon a subject of absorbing Interest, and I trunt ttintynu have already given il your most careful consideration; for I aubmlt, (rutilln men, that the subject of the chanue or the tlllnor this InMliiitlon tnki-s precedence In point of Import ance over any other suhjeot upon which you hare been called lo deliberate. And alihoiiKb II Is neither my purpose nor my province to express an opinion upon the iiiblect, 1 nevertheless feel consiramfd to express the hope that in your deliberation upon this Important Issue, you will be guidod not alone by the brilliant records that adorn the pnges ofour past hlsiory history that has rendered the i) nine ot j lorn Kxchange' so dear to us all-out that you will also reflect with earnest solicitude upon the unfiithonied and yet probnhle tuiure, for the grant Interest in an I fisted In the change of the title or this Institution Is not confined to our own mem be rs alone, but it has become a sul.Jot ordisrusslnn with kindred Institutions, and It Is p jsxlble, gentlemen, that when the bo is ol these kindred bodies shall have become known to yon,, they may have a controlling Influence upon your own deliberations. W'l'crnilt mo to add, gentlemen, thatlns the sublet before vou Involves an alteration In our Constitution, your rfellberatlons upon It will be governed by the fifteenth article of our Hy-I.aws, which suhmits the subject to yon to-day for discussion only, deferring tlnal action for a period of not lens than ten d ivs. With these brief remarks, gentlemen, the subject awaits your action." Mr. George W. Buaby'thon addressed the meeting, earnestly advocating the change pro- Sosed. He stated that those engaged in the our and grain trade did not comprise more than one-half of the present membership of the Association; and no one desired to have the name and character of his business thus Ignored. The "Chamber of Commerco" was about be ginning active operations, and would soou nllord to the Association accommodations twenty times as great as at present enjoyed. Mr. Buzhy urged the members of the Associa tion to regard every one as a brother In trade, and In a spirit of magnanimity to consent to the change of name, and hereafter put aside all exclusiveness of spirit. By so doing the last act of the "Corn Kxchange Association," under that distinctive name, will be a very commend able one. Mr. Buzby then read the follow! u Beries of resolutions: Whrrem, This Corn Exchange Association was pri marily organised for the purpose or enhancing the Interests of, and affording greater facilitiei to, that particular branch or the large merchandising interest ol Philadelphia designated as the "Flcur and Gralu Trade." and was especially adapted to the wants thereof; and, whereon, by invitation from time to time, through a series of years past, Its membership lias largely increased, and now consists of represen tatives or the various mercantile, commercial, and manufucturlDg Interests of our thriving metropolis; and, whn-rat, the waut of a great Business Mart, or Kxchange, sucu as may be inuud In the leading cities or our Unloo. for the regulating of trade, aud where business men of all ciusaes may daily meet lor a full aud tree inter change ot opinion, to make purchases, effect s.iles, etc., Is now being agitated, and is much needed, therefore. In view of these facta, and In Justice to thone members of our Association who are not, from the nature ot their business, properly represented by the title "Corn Kxchunge," and to meet public opinion, and provide for a growing want lu the com niuulty , be it Jintalvd. That the name of this Association be changed from "Corn Kxchange Association" to the more comprehensive title ot "Trade Kxchange," and that a committee be appointed lo procure the legisla tion necessary thereto: Bald change of name to take ellect by proclamation of the President of the Corn Kxchange Immediately upon receipt of the Legisla tive enactment. Jrjlvrti. '1 bat said change of life shall be decided by ballot on the 2 Ml day of May, 1867, tor which occa sion the President shad appolut one Judge and two tellers.

M. Hemtvfd, 't hat one thousand copies of tbe foresting preamble and resolutions be printed, and one copy thereof, enclosed by tbe Secretary as early a practi cable, to each member ot the Corn Kxchange Asso elation. Mr. C. J. Hoffman moved an Indefinite post ponement, asserting that there was no neces sity for a consideration of the subject, before the occupation of the new quarters. This motion was temporarily withdrawn, at the re quest of Mr. Thomas Allmau, who moved that all after tbe preamble be slrlckea out, and the following inserted: Rrjtohvd, That the Board of Managers be and they are hereby Instructed to confer with the Hoard of Trade, the Coal and Drug Kxchange, and kindred or ganizations, with a view to uniting with this Associa tion, under one suitable name, to occupy the Chamber ot Commerce building about to be erected; and that they report, wheu expedient, the result of their oou fererce, with such suggestions as they may deem ad visable. Mr. Hoffman then renewed his motion ot postponement, which, after a lengthy and ram bling dlsousslon on the question, as to whether or not the motion was la order, was lost. The amendment of Mr. Allmau was then lost, after which the words "Trade Exohange" were stricken out, and the resolutions so amended as to provide lor suomitung to a vote uy uaiiot such names for the Association as might be proposed. The resolutions were then adopted, and the meeting adjourned. Previous to the adjournment the following titles were proposed: "Trade Exohauge," Trade and Commercial Exchange," "Produce - i r. irYtitanffAi'riiminArnliLl Kircfi unie .." "Chamber of Commerce." "Board of Trade," and "Corn Excb"g" a rv" "Bankers' and Brokers' Telegraph. Our brief and pleasant business experience with this company Induces us to call the attention of tbe business public generally to what we conceive to be of vital Interest to them the duty of sustaining Dy. their patronage its praiseworthy efforts to sustain a healthy com petition In what is fast getting to be a giant and oppressive monopoly. If one huge coin- titlon by fair or foul means, through the cri inlnal' negligence of the business public, that nubile has no right to complain if, In the end, the exactions made upon them by the success ful monopoly shall become almost unbearable. For this reason, therefore, we trust our busi ness men.wlll extend a liberal patronage to the Bankers and Brokers' line, to the Immediate .-on oU ..omnia heneflt of their pockets.
