James Far ton, In the history of the Sewing Mschlnes, In the At lantic Monthly, says: "Without presuming to give an Opinion with regard to the comoarallve merits of the various machines, we may say that we were exceed ingly struck with the elegance and Ingenuity of the Florence." This is a commendation worth more to the repn;v lion ot the Sewing Machine than any "Fair" gold medal premium, because It is the opinion of a man of genius and extensive observation.

It wua the first time that the Fenians of both wings of t he Brother hood showed a willingness to nnlte, notwith standing the boisterous conduct of a f 9v ad herents of the davage branch. Dr. Carroll oc cupied the chair, and speeches were made by John M. Moriarty and others, counselling harmony ;and united action amongst Irishmen of all creeds and classes, and begglug forgelfulness and forgive, ness for all past bickerings. It was resolved unanimously that suitable funeral obsequies, In memory of Allen, Gould, and O'Brien, take place on New Year's Pay; that the whole strength of tbe Fenian organization turnout In public parade, as well as all other socle- ties sympathizing with the martyred dead; and that all the expenses of carriages, hearses, muslo, and mourning badges be defrayed equally by both branches f the Bro therhood. A vole of thanks was passed to Blrnou Gartland, undertaker, for offering gra tuitously the use ol bis hall, hearses, and cai rlages. A committee of twenty-six persons was thon appointed to carry out the objects of the meeting. Communications from other societies will be received by Mr. John Breunan, Mr. Finn, Dr. Carrol, and Mr. Nash, who will assign them positions In the parade. It pro mises to be a very imposing sight. Thb Citt Ice-Boat, we are glad to say, is hard and efficiently at work, with every pros pect of being able to keep tbe channel of the Delaware below the city clear of all obstruc tions.

A full supply of eoal was taken In on Saturday, and yesterday was paned In cruising up and down the river. T! is morning she started down the river with a large tow.

About 6 o'clock last evening flames were dis covered issuing from tne smelting room of the Camden Nickel Works, situated on Cooper's creek, opposite the Camden Woollen Mills. The alaim was sounded, and tbe fir companies pro ceeded with as much alacrity to tbe aoene as they possibly oould, the snow greatly impeding their progress. A bose belonging to the esta blishment was attached to the donkey engine and a diminutive stream was thrown upon the lire. By this time tbe flames bad forced their way tbrongh tbe floor Into tbe upper story, annl tbe roof catoblng fire, threatened with destruction thesuiroundlng buildings. The steamers com-pot-lng tbe Camden Fire Department were run alongside of the creek, and thus a sufficient quantity of water was secured. All hopes of saving the burning building were then given up, and the streams of water were turned towards the other buildings. The fire burned with great stubbornness for about three hours. The building destroyed was abont 40 feet wltte by 80 loug, and was two stories In height, with a slanting gravel roof, Tbe first lloor con tained two cupolas, used for smelling purposes. The fire originated in this room, and was caused by the material being over-heated. The second lloor or the building was used as a dyeing room. Kverythlng in the structure was destroyed. A building adjacent to It was con siderably scorched. A high wind prevailed at the lime, but fortunately It was blowing in an opposite direction from the other buildings. Had It not been so, the whole works would have been a mass of ruins this morning. Mesfrs. Wharton & Flelsttnaun.the proprietors, estimate their loss at 915,000, upon wbioh there la no Insurance.
