To Smoa a Rocxd of Bmsf.— One ounce of powdered Cayenne pepper, half an ounce of clove*, half an ounce of allspice, and two nutmegs. Rub into yeur beef first an ounce of salt petre, then a capful of sugar, and two handfuls of salt. Break up the spicea fine, anil add them, laying the round in a large bowl or other covered vessel tight enough to hold the brine that will be forming. Turn the beef everr morn ing, rubbing the spices in with the hand. It ftiay be cooked in a fortnight, or left for six weeks. Stew in a pot, with beef anet strewed fine over it Add some beef gravy, or a quart of wa ter and a bottle of port wine or claret It must be done slowly, taking care to keen in the steam. It will require three or lour hours, perhaps five, according to the size. Cook it also in the pickle drawn from the beef, adding three or four gallons of boiling water. Take care that it does not touch the vessel it is boiled in. If yon choose you may tie it in a cloth, or wrap it in a coarse paste made for the purpose. A large round often keeps until too hard and dry to use; it is better than ever then for a relish if grated up fine, and is especi ally nice for tea. IrlkoSi Milk Maain. For five years past I have practiced hauling manure as fast aa made in the winter, and spreading it on grain and grass fields. I find this winter that my 30 head of cows and calves and two horses, well Uttered, make a good boat load of manure for every 14 hours con fined in the stables. My boat is ? feet long, 3} feet wide, and can be piled 3) feet high. I made it by grabbing oat a small oak tree and splitting it in two for runners, 3 inckes wide at little and 6 inches at big end, the bilge on each aide of a half-inch making crook enough to answer well. Place them three feet ■part, bark aide np, and pin two-inch plank acrossthemjwith 1J inch auger then t>ore four stake-boles and pat in stakes to hold side-boards, they to haTe cleets on inside at their ends to hold end boards from falling ontward, and to fit in tight enough not to fall inward ; and then, aa the manure rises in loading, all is secure, till, arriving at field, pull out the stakes, put the boards behind the boat, and then pitch in and spread the high, square heap on all sides, the bones to more on from time to time, and the load is spread is a j iffy. The boat packs down deep snow when a sled would not. In winter time the boat needs to have a tongue so attached aa to take it off when snow and ice disappear. Three or four •uch cheap boat receptacles at the proper points around the stables, to receive the dailv make of manure as thrown out, would economize time in getting it to the field. As to the general utiUty of manuring land in winter, I fully agree with J. T. \an Wyck. The six points of advantage which he names in the communication published in the Weekly Tribune of the 25th of December are worthy of the careful attention of every farmer. Another correspondent in this fertilizing department of the Tribune • well speaks of the great advantage of seeding grain-land to grass after, or on the mulch spread from the stables. This point of advantage when once experi enced will never be forgotten. Pass over a stubble in September sown to clover or other grass the preceding March, after a winter mulch of fresh manure on parts of the field, and the glaring contrast in the condition of the grass or clover on the mulched and unmulched places tells a significant tale. Desiring to impart a little information to Tribune correspondents, as well as to receive so much of them, I send you these few lines.—/?. 11. Clark, Springdalc Farm, Portage Co., Ohio. Farmer* VI tit tag Kerb OUaer. Better, but not a substitute for the interchange of experience through the papers by farmers, is the practice of naiting and talking with each other, examining each other's means and methods of doing business, exchanging suggestions on the farm and stock man agement and relative to devices for facilitating work. Scarcely any farmer will consider his time lost who devotes a certain proportion of it each year to this method of acquiring information and suggestions for use in his own hus bandry ; for there are some things far mers mast learn which no amount of newspaper description will teach—no thing but actual observation will answer. This sort of education, it seems to us, is too mnch neglected by farmers. Ex perience has taught ns how profitable it is, how much it saves in the way of ex periments, and how mnch it enriches in the way of actual suggestion of improv ed methods, and by the accumulation of facts that never reach the pnblic, be ause so few farmers ever write them. It is, therefore, urged here that no pos sible investment of time cau give great er compensation than that expended in exchanging visits with the best farmers of a townsliip or county. Adulteration of Milk. According to Mr. J. Alfred Wanklyn, the most common modes of ad alteration of milk consist in removing the cream in greater or less quantity and in adding water; and consequently the testing of milk resolves itself essentially into the detection of the skimming and watering, and the measuring of the extent to which these operations have been car ried. For this purpose he finds it most satisfactonr, first, to estimate accurately the normal composition of milk, or at least the average limits of variation in this respect, and then to find out what deviation from this average is presented by any given sample. The result of many inquiries on his part is to show that the solids left by evaporation of cow's milk vary comparatively little, in different animals or m different seasons, and he thinks that a range of from 5 to 12 per cent, expresses about the aver age amount of these solids. Arctic Exploration. To the generality of mankind the fas- ! si nation which lead* so many to take put in arctic exploration ia incompre hensible. Even those who ace some method in Livingstons'* madness, can discover nothing to justify the risking of life ami treasure IU efforts to jxue trate the froien tone, which must ever remain impracticable for human use*. But to the men of soiouoe, the question of the prospective discovery of the pole ami the results which may (low from it, u fraught with auiutcreat tlmt has attach-1 .H! to few other of the great cosmic in vestigations. Who knows what meteor ological ami magnetic mysteries may not lie aolve.l when that hnl.leu region j shall have been pel rood ! what toologi- ; cal and ethnological secrets may not IH> divnlg.nl! There may lie the key to the laws of storms, of atmospheric sml oceanic currents, and of the tides. He hui)} that frosen barrier there rnav be placid seas and warmer regions rich iu anisial ami in vegetable life. Titer* may still exist genera and species long supposed to Wo extinct, and perhaps vestiges and remains of man cut off for ages frouiconuuuuicatiouwith his kind. The possibility thst all or any of these mysteries may be unlocked by him who first shall enter that charmed region, lends a fascination to arctic exploration not easily appreciate.! bv the masses, and in comparison with which the perils ami hardship* incident to it are reckon ed a* of little account. This, as well as the love of adventure inhereut iu man- j kiud, ia what lead* men yearly to tempt those inhospitable climes, and attract# ability and skill from easier paths to in vestigations attended onlv by privation and danger. Siuce the days when the adventurous keels of the Northmen tirst ploughed those seas, nearly all civilised nations have interested themselves in the arctic problem. The ship* of Venice and of England long sought there the mythical northwest passage to the In dies; Danes, French, and Dutch, emu lous of the Spaniards, w ho mouopoliaed the other routes, pursued the quest with energy au.l seal, some aeeking the passage from the east and some from the west; Russians tried to penetrate northward through Siberia, and by ahip through Bell ring's Straits ; and later, when this commercial dream was ended and science alone demanded further ex Clora tioa, England sacrificed some of er noblest sons on the altar of polar investigation. America, too, has not been behindhand in adding to the world's knowledge of those desolate re gions. Even uow Captain Hall and his companions are braving the rigors of the arctic seas in the hope, not a vain one we trust, of Wing the first to reach the open waters and perhaps the pole itself. Worthy competitors from Sweden, Nor way, Austria, Russia, and England, are in the field, striving to reach the ooveted goal through different paths. It is prob able that some oae of these parties will solve the long mooted question of the existence of sn open polar sea. Most of the precedent geographical doubts have been cleared up by the numerous explorers before them, so that undivi ded attention can be given to the great problem. If it be not settled uow, science may well fear that difficulties, insurmountable by human skill and perseverance, lie in the way. Significance of Hair. Hair parting naturally iu the middle, and falling over the temple, as it gcuer ally does in women aad sometimes in men, indicates the feminine element; in a man symmetry and beauty of soul —genius of a certain kind, which im plies the feelings of the woman com bined with the thought of the man. It is a very common characteristic among poets and artists, as seen in Homer, Virgil, Shakspeare, Milton, Goethe, Dante, Raphael.Titian, Handel, Mozart, Tasso, Chaucer, Keats, Burns, Hoff man, Longfellow and others. In pic tures of Christ, aud in other exalted, highly refined and beautiful characters, tins peculiarity is always introduced by the artist Sometimes the hair, on rising from its bnlbs, turns in irregular rings on the forehead, giving an open air to the physiognomy. This indicates good na ture, as well as exuberant vitaUty. Crinkled and wavy, and close curling hair indicates vivacity and excitabiUty, if not brilliancy. Regular curls symbolize ideality, and, when only part of th* hair is worn in curls, are instinctively disposed over the organ of that faculty. Straight hair may be said to indicate in cultivated persons evenness of char acter and a straightforward honesty of purpose, as well as a clear head and good natural talents. The dark-haired races aro physically the strongest, but less endowed intel lectually than tbe fair-haired. The first are more inclined to manual labor and active exercise, and the last to mental exertion. Tbe dark races are workers, the light races thinkers, poets, artists, etc. Black hair indicates strengtk, and predominance of the bilious tempera ment, aa in tbe Spaniard, tbe Malay, the Mexican, the Indian, and tbe negro. Red bair is a sign of ardor, passion, intensity of feeling, and parity of char acter, and goes with the sanguine tem perament, as in the Scotch, the Insh, the Swede, the Dane, etc., etc. Anburn hair is found most frequently in connection with the lvmpbatic tem- Srament, and indicates delicacy and re ement of taste, and, if the mind be cultivated, fine moral and intellectual power. It is common among the Ger mans, the Danes, aud Anglo-Saxons. Dark brown hair combines the strength of the black with the exquisite susceptibilities of the liyht hair, and is, Serhaps, all things considered, the most esiraole. Workingmen Determined to Strike. The workingmen of the city of New ! York, the Tribune tells ns, are very re : tioent, but nearly all trades are quietly I and effectively perfecting their organi zations for s combined strike this spring. 1 Secret societies are forming, but the most diligent search among the leaders | failed to yield any definite information of their plans, beyond the general dec laration that a strike has been deter- J mined apon in April or May. Thus far the Crispin organization has been the most prominent in instituting measures for an increase of pay, and therefore a reporter sought out A. Limberg, the chairman of their combined lodges. He was found exceptionally communicative. He said: There are five lodges in the trade, one German, one English, and one French, engaged in the manufacture of goods for men's wear ; one for mak ing ladies' boots, and one of women who call themselves Daughters of Ht. Crispin. The total membership aggre gates about 12,000, and all are a unit for higher wages. Now we work 16 hours s day, and if we make no mistakes with car work fail of which we are com pelled to assume), we are able to make only about 812 a week. We shall de mand an advance of 10 per cent, at least, and I am favor of asking for sn increase of 25 per cent. We are in communica tion with all the other trades, and I know and do not care to conceal the fact from you, that this city will witness a strike of all the working classes. The time fixed upon is about the end of April or the beginning of May. The cigar-makers employed by one firm have already struck for an increase of pay, and their demand has been acceded to. This information was corroborated in other quarters by workingmen, from whom it was also learned that the car penters, joiners, and others in the build ing trade, will demand eight hours, and that the committees from the various branches of this interest have met in joint session, organized, and definitely decided to strike. The fact that the International organization is heading the movement, was ascertained from good authority, as well as the fact that they boast of a membership of 10,000, and are determined to win in the coming contest with their assumed enemy, cap ital In many States it is an offense to shoot, trap, or otherwise interfere with quail, partridge, and prairie chicken, and the law remains in force until tho Ist of September. It is, as a conse quence, illegal to purchase these birds or to set them. Interior of an English (oat-Fit.

It was not in the tub, but standing on the gratiug on which the tub had BI.HHI, that we had to descend; or the naked gratiug with nothing to i " hold on" to but a cross-chain over head. Rut the pit was only six hundred i feet deep, and the ooal smoke that arose I from the enormous tuiue furnace was , uot unbearable by the time it had be numbed one's senses a bit.

It is villainously cruel to serve the poor i little chap* so. * The matter stands th * i way. The hewer is the man whose business it is to break in" at the foot of a coal wall. He lies on his sides or on his stomach, and he breaks in with his peck right along for a length, say of twenty feet. Naturally in the process of pecking he makes a.leal of "slack," and the bov in question is called the " slack boy.'' Regarded as a boy, as s human creature, he is slack indeed, lie is not much like a boy. He is more like a large-sited monkey. AU fours is his perpetual posture, and he wears a leather girdle about his waist from i which an iron chain depends, the other end of it being attached to an iron cart. The slack boy has an iron shovel as well, and the business of his wretched life is to crawl in at the hole the hewer makes, to fill his cart with chi|>s ami dost, and then to crawl oat aguiu with his losd, always on his hands and knee*, and with his* poor limbs hung about with a few rags of which nakedness might be ashamed.— London .Society. The Catch of Seals. The outfit for the Newfoundland seal fishery, this vear. promises to be unusu ally large, the fleet will number twen ty-one steamers, with but few sailing vessels, and probably from nine to ten thousand men will embark, this vear, for the ice-fields. A correspondent, writiug to a Halifax paper, from St Johns, N. F., gives some interesting facts relating to the business and the habits of the s.-al, whose fur is so much sought for. The Arctic curreut, setting South of Baffiu's Bay, at this season of the vear floats on its surface those hngc ice-Selils, two or three hundred miles in breadth, and of an unknown length, on which the seals bring forth their young. The mother seals deposit their young in these icy cradles about the middle of February. Tenderly as any human mother, the females watch over their helpless off spring lying amid the ice-hummocks, uttering continually a low whine, very like the cry of a human baby, who is peevish or uncomfortable. The mother seals fish all around, during the day, and return at intervals to suckle their young, each having op ice hole by which she reaches the water. The young, thus rocked by the great billows of the At lantic, grows at a surprising rate. ' In four weeks from their birth thev aro iu the best condition for beiug taien, and the oil obtained from their plump bodies is then of the finest quality. Tbe aim of the seal-hunter is to reach them when in this condition, about the middle or end of March. From the island, tic scaling vessels take their de parture, as soon as possible after the Ist of March, and, steering Northeast, dash in among the ice-fields, and beat about in search of the young innocents, lying in herds, or ••patches," as the sealers phrase it, over a large area of ice. The young seals aro killed by a slight blow on the nose, and then the hunter " sculps" them with his knife tliat is, takes off the skin with the thick layer of fat adhering to it—leaving the carcass en the ice. Grave fears are entertained by some lest the employment of so mnny steamers may ruin the fishery, and ultimately lead to the extermination of the seal, as in the case of the South Sea fisheries. This is a hazardous business at the beat, and frequently those who lose theircap ital in it, lose their all. The seal is the soureo of considerable profit to the Newfoundlanders, and in fortunate seasons some of those engaged in the business realize a large return upon their investment. Among the new steamers fitted out this year, is the Neptune, bark-rigged, with engines of 120 horse power, the largest and most powerful sealing vewel ever employed at seal or whale catching. The steam ship City of Halifux, formerly Inmau mail steamer between Ht. John's and Halifax, has also been added to the fleet. Hailing vessels have bnt a poor chance when competing with steamers in this business. The use of steamers, involving the investment of a large cap ital, has a tendency to concentrate tlio entire business in the hands of a com paratively few adventurers.

In sue ami grandeur, in whirl and dash, in the uumber of men employed, and iu the general glitter of the spectacle, I > have never seen any aitempt at military display in my own country to equal the reviews hcbl regularly every year ui the | Champ de Mars ou the Emperor's /< !r : day, though it has lecn my lot to wtt j uess two pageants, in both of which the I military element occupied a conspicuous place, which were undeniably more 1 striking and impiessive than anything i else of the kind in my recollection. Olio of these was the funeral of the ! Duke of Wellington, the other the pro i ccedings ou the day of Thanksgjviug j for the recovery of the Brines©! Wales, scarcely wore than a year ago. The former was a day ef mourning, and, from the position of the dead man to t whom the honors were made, one of si in oat purely military organisation ; but the litter was a public rejoicing offer ing many points of detail, or for com parison with the ceb brutiou just accom plished. Aud, in the first place, let me venture to hint that in llio matter of dijooration you are somewhat behind hand. The display of fisgs and all that ■ is known by the generic name of "bunt ing" was singularly poor and inappro priate. The Stars and Stripes form a Tory pretty banner —oertauily quite as pretty aa our old Union Jack or OUT of the Continental tricolors ; but nothing , else but Stars and Stripes floating from 1 windows, encumbering flagstaff*, <- ■ tooued across balconies, stuck in the Lheads of horses, spread out and earned ' UmoaUßy by the sooty fingers of our colored brethern, became as wearying and monotonous MM was the tut\juur prrdrix to the French younmt, or the Mullutl hot and mutton cold, klullou vuuug sad mutton old i Mutton ietuivr. mutton tough. 1 thank the Loci I to had siiougb. to the Eaton school boy. Nor, if 1 may be permitted to ssy so, did J ever assist in any public celebra tion 111 any country in which the em blems of other nations were so entirely and persisteutly ignored as on the pre sent occasion. I can safely say that never, during my eijterience, has there been a public holiday in Loudon with out the display of a vast number of American flags, not merely put forth for American residents, but forming part of the geueral display, intertwimug with French and Italian Tricolors, Gorman and Russian Eagles and Ottoman Cres cents. lam not idiotto enough to im pute this omission to the national vanity or selfish urss. tkxl know* tliat I, who in America have experienced diu rial kindness, appreciation and hospitality than were ever previously shown me in tar life, would be the last utan wilfully to sug gest anything offriinr to tlie nation j whoui in v aujuurn haa been o pleasant, j It merely struck uie as an onusMuu and as such 1 record it. Nor was there the smallest taste or display in the dreasing ,of the street*. The temporary struc tures which had been erected were in most cases left m their original rough hewn state of bare boards. No dn uuty had shaped their ends ; no artistic baud lor eye had been called iulo requisition to cover or color them. It is not, I know, the season for tiowera, and floral decoration was not to be looked for; but evergreens are always to be hail, ! and -tastefully arranged, can bo mode very pretty andollectivc. The question see ins to me to resolve itself into the old dictum, trite and worn though it l>c, but ao full of truth, that if a thing la worth doing it ia worth doing well. Rut decidedly the military portion of to-days display was by faj the finest and moat impressive. Nothing could be better than the bearing and dressing of tlio West Point cadets, the Navy cade a, the regulars and curtain of the military regiments, notably tho Albany Durgeaa corps and the Boston Lancers. The Fifth New York regiment was also deservedlv cheered. It soems question able whether the Firo brigade is a per misaable portion of such a procession; but undoubtedly it was most effective, and the floral garlanded wheel* and the , horses, each bearing upon his neck a floral wreath, formed a pretty sight. The presence of the veti-rna of UioMexi can war was well timed and interesting. Hut surely it would have been lmtter to have paneled them before tho eyes of 1 their fellow citirens in aomo vehicle more dignified than s broken-down omnibus with a linen placard bearing t their printed designation. And from time to time an air of ridicule was | thrown over the whole proceeding by ' the apjiearance of moat inharmom | on* items. Such wero the Tarioua squads of negro people, dreased in pre posterously gauity colors, the rauk and tile unable to keep atp ( the bands uu altlo to keep time. Such were tlic j shambling, struggling collections of , citizens in plaiu clothes, with hats and , garments varying in color and shape a* ' much as did their owners in aire and ! height, without tho faintest uotiou of j keeping step or line, and reminding iui Englishman, irresistibly of the holiday 1 outing of some convivial and benevolent brotherhood in his native land. To the stranger a noticeable feature was tho lack of cavalry, aud the rough and ready appearance of such as were present, which wonld have been admis sible and in some cases admirable in the field, but was not ta be expected on the parade ground. To the eye accustomed to tl apick and span neat ■ tieaa—l do not allude to the style* of the uniform, but only to the manner in which it was worn and kept—of the Euglish and French household troops, of tlio Life Oaards and the Cent (tardea j or the Prussian Uhlan*, or, indeed, of j the light cavalry and husaars of any of Hie countries named, there was some thing provoking in the slovenliness of tho dress, the want of polish to the accoutrements and the wretchedly ill ' groomed condition of the horses which was strikingly disappointing. To be i sure as regards some of the horses, large allowance is to l>o made, many of them having been procured in tlio town 1 —useful animals, more fitted for domes tic service than military display. In deed, a canard is current that one regi- ment, not be named, were mounted on horses belonging to the Knickerbocker Ice Company of Now York, snd that many of the mr mberm lost their seats in resequence of the animals pulling up suddenly st the doors of the houses where they were accustomed to deliver the daily cooling allowance. I was "a little disappointed in the sue of the crowd. I havo heard it since re marked by many jiersona that they had never seen anch a throng in their lives ; but measuring it, not from an English, but frum an American standpoint, f am inclined to say that in very few places did it doubt the ordinary erowd to be encountered on Broudway at the height (|f tfce business tide. The peonle were, ckr the main, good hnmorrd, but, like most crowds, it had its ugly elements. Noticeable, t#o, was the fact that there was very little cheering. That idea that Bptpns are the only people that can cicr has long since' been exploded. I have heard American hurrahs quite as hearty as English, and your " tiger " is an effective qui volant for our "Kentish fire." But it ia certaiu there was very little cheering to-Juy as the President passed by. nnd to what there was be never made the least response. Lord Chestertleliii lays dpwu the axiom that it is the duty of a gen'tleman to raise his hat in reply to a similar salutation, •rru though it l>a proffered by a l>#g gar : but rreaident Orant'ft store pij>ft might bare been nailed to hia bead, and bia far# waa aa cheerful and eipreasive aa the figurehead of an old frigftte, Old Pruiaaart aaid that we Kugliab were eery and in our pleaaurea: that we took thetn " moult tristnnent. ' If the worthy chronicler bad lived a few eeuturiea later and been tempted to oeine over here (I have uo doubt the American Lecture Uureati would have offered bim an eugagcmeut). be would probably have paid thrin tlie aaiue compliment. Itefore the oeeaaion of lua aecoud trip to tliia country Mr. Charles Dickena told a friend wh" wua about to vieit America that be would And the Amer icaua a act of aad, aileut people in tail coata. The tail coat accusation now falla barmleiuily, aud aa for the aadiieaa and the ailcnoe 1 have never in mr life heard more merriment, occasionally, in. deed, verging on the giggle, or more incessant and for the moat part race I lent talk than ainoug the memtiera, ea pcciaily the female members, of society into which 1 have had the huuor of ad mission. Hut the crowd to-day struck me aa being dull, and w&utiug in that element of rough but humoroua chaff characteristic of an F.ngliali mob A more disagreeable morning it would be difficult t< imagine. The sky was quite cloudless and of a bright steely blue, and the wind, which during the whole night hud IsN-n " raving in turret aud tree —not, by lite way, that I have seen a turret in Washington—had not abated its fury, and was tearing and roaring throng* the great, wide, bare, , blank spaco which aro called streets, ami which will some day be built upon, with devilish glee. During the night the wind had acted sa a scavenger and hud swept the streets unusually clean, but by eight o'clock its self-imposed duty was still unfinished, and waifs of paper and aerajrs of straw and various Other debris and litter were laving hunt ed by it into corners and tlieace car ried away into less important localities. Burning of the President's Missouri Farmhouse. The St. Lonis Republican says: The oouutry residence of President Grant, on his farm on the Gravois road, was destroyed by fire recently. It was a commodious brick house, two stories in height, aud was known as " Wish ton-Wish." It commenced hunting at noon yesterday, and was in ruins at four o'clocg. As more than ordinary iuterest at taches to it on account of the elevated position of the owner, and the fact that the President anticipated eventually to retire to it ? we enter iuto some dcteils regarding it The farm is one of eight hundred aerea, ten uulee from the court-house, on the Gravois road, in tjic county, and is a fine tract of liuid, through which Gravois Creek passes, wait ring it very well. A portion of it is heavily tim bered, and about one-third is in a high state of cultivation. There were two residences upon it, and tlas one was upon the summit of the lull. It ceui mauded an excellent view of Cguildelst, the Illinois bluffs, and the country about the Insane Asylum. It waa in the Southwestern port of the tracl, and about half a mile from the other build ing. It was erected by Mr. Lewis Dent in IH4B or Imm. and was built of what is known as " stock " brick. The ground In-tween it and the Gravuia road was finely set with shrubbery, cedars, birch, and various kinds of shade trees. The house had double piazzas or porches, and was designed with an "L. l'here were on the ground fb>r of the nuun building a large parlor, a wide ball, and a sitting-room. On the same floor in the " L " was the dining-room ; and the kitchen was in the basement of the same part of the building. There were three chambers in the second story. The place had been fancifully finished, and there was a good deal of elegance about it. Mr*. Grant occupied it dur ing part of the war. and at the time of the first election of her husband. Upm femoral to th* White House, a Mr. Edwards was placed in the building as teuaut, to take care of it, but during the last two years Mr. Peter Bims has been in charge of it, he, with his family, occupying threw rooms. The furniture in these belonging to the President was packed tip and placed m other parts of the building. The parlor was always kept in order as a reception room fur the v isitors who called there in surnftW to see the house. The budding cost Mr. Dent $4.000; there was obout $3,000 worth of furni ture belonging to the President, and a quantity Wlougtng to Mr. Minima in it. A few valuable articles bad been re moved to Washington. As slated before the fire commenced at noon. It ia supposed that it origi nated from the kitchen fire, as it haa not been customary to heat the parlor. It gained considerable headway, there Wing no special appliances to extinguish it. and, as there was quite a brerxe, tlie flames were too powerful for the simple menus at hand. There is a cisteru soar it, and energetic efforts were made with buckets to subdua the lire, but without effect. The roof fell in, and the fire kept homing until 4 aclock, wheu the building was thoroughly gutted. Tlie length ot tune which ensued Wfora the resideucc wa* destroyed, enabled the parties at tlie scene to remove a large portion of the furniture. The loss would probably be about $5,500, and it is stated then- was no insuranoe. There was no alarm given to tlie fire department of tlie city. If one bail been sounded from tlie box at the Insane Asylum, it would have been responded to, sad two engines sent out, though they might have been of no use, owing to the distance of the fann. Tho other residence which was not burned wo* considered mure valuable than tlie brick one. It is a frame one, much larger, and was built by Mr. Wm. 1,. Long, father of Hoo. John F. Loug, in 1814. It WHS greatlv improved in 1818 by Mr. Thomas limit, and was then considered a magnificent country resideuee. It was still further improved by Mr. Frederick Dent, father-in-law of tlie President, in 1823, and haa always been kept in excellent condition.
