THE FIBE AT EAST NEWABK.
At halt-past four o’clock yesterday morning the
spacious car building, owned and occupied by the
New Jersey Bailroad Company, situated at Eas
Newark, N. J., was destroyed by fire. The
smoke was first discovered issuing from the roof
directly over the engine, and, on the alarm being
given, the firemen promptly answered the call (hut
owing to the distance which thev had to run, the
building was completely enveloped in flames by
the time they arrived on the ground, and all at
tempts to subdue the flames were useless. Tnere
being no water within half a mile, the engines
were compelled to form a line to the Passaic river,
where they had considerable trouble in breaking
the ice in order to use their suction-hose, and
finally the ergines became useless, owing to the
ice which formed in the cylinders and air-cham
bers. The result was that in the short space of an
hour the building waß a blackened mass of charred
ruins. The building, which was of brick, was
erected by the Company about three years ago at
an expense of - 515,000, and has been used for
repairing cars belonging to the Company. There
were in the building six passenger cars undergoing
repairs, one of which was rescued in a damaged
condition. There were also in the course of con
struction several cars for the new air-!ine between
New York and 'Washington, in connection with a
fine stationary engine and a large number of tools
■belonging to the workmen, numbering about thirty
men, whose loes will not fall short of 53,000, upon
which there is no insnrance. The fire was evi
dently the work of an incendiary,, as the building
was leltinasale condition by the foreman, who
examined the engine-room and other parts of the
establishment where fire was used during the day.
Steps will be taken to have the affair fully invesli
gated, and, if possible, brine . the gulty party to
justice. There was no insurance.

The following is an extract of a letter- from an
officer of the Sixth United States Colored
Troops :
_Camp AT yoBSTowN, Va., Feb. 18. 1864.
Camp life at the “_Seat L of 'War, ” lias greatly im
proved the soldierly [bearing of the men, in
spite of the disheartening and depressing influ
ence of constant shovel business at the York
town Earthworks. Their clothes are dirtier and
rustier, but the men stand more erect, and my re
gimental line, now, i.e almost motionless. In fact
they are doing first rate, and becoming entirely
accustomed to the life and duties of a soldier
Their recent marching on Gen. Wistar’s Expe
dition to Bottom’s Bridge was admirable. I be
lieve General W. thinks there are ho troops better
than they' are, in the world,

THE PRESIDENTIAL QUESTION.
" [From the Baltimore American.
We find the following paragraph in the Philadel
phia telegraphed from Washington:
“ Information from Baltimore indicates the
triumph of Henry Winter Davis, in the recent elec
tions, in carrying the Delegate Conventions for
Secretary Chase for President, and the radical plat
form over the Blair conservatives, who ran tickets
hesded‘A. Lincoln.’”
The facts are that the only question that at pre
sent influences the Union voters of Maryland is
Emancipation in our own State, and that not‘a
delegate has been elected to the State Convention
with any view on the part of the people who elected
them to meddle in the Presidential question. If a
vote should be taken in that Convention, or any
where else in Maryland, at the present time, on the
choice of a candidate for the .Presidency, we have
np hesitation in expressing the belief that fully
three-fourths would declare themßclveß in favor of
the re-nomination of President Lincoln. Indeed,
at moßt of the County Conventions, resolutions
favoring Mr. Lincoln were adopted, and if it is the
intention of Washington politicians to force a divi
sion among the Union men of Maryland on this
question at the present time, we think they will be
disappointed.

The correspondent of one of our morning papers
says that the Secretary of the Treasury has written
to the Committee of Ways Meanß, urging them to
have passed a bill authorizing them to sell the sur
plus gold. We think there must be somemißtake
about this, as the act of Congress of 25th February,
1662, authorizes and directs the Secretary of the
Treasury to use the gold on hand, after paying the
interest, in the purchase or redemption in each and
every fiscal year, after the Ist July, 1802. of one per
cent, of the entire debt of the United States. This
would authorize the sale of sufficient gold to pur
chase for thiß year,of seven millions of Government
Loan, and for last year, if not already done, of
$3,600,000 of Government Loan.' To carry out this
act would require the Bale of about seven millions
of gold. We do not therefore think that the Secre
tary requires any authority to sell gold as he has
now the right to sell seven millions.

EXTRACT SARSAPARILLA.
It cleanses and renovates the blood, Instills the
vigor of health into the system, and purges out the
humors which make disease. It stimulates the
healthy functions of the body and expels the dis
orders that grow and rankle in the blood. Sncha
remedy, that could be relied on, has long been
sought for. and now, for the flrst time, the public
have one on which they can depend. Our space
here does not admit certificates to show its effect,
but the trial of a Eingle bottle will show to the sick
that it has virtues surpassing anything they ha Tv
ever taken.
Two tablespoonsful of the Extract of Sarsaparil
la added to a pint of water, is equal to- the TTihann
Diet Drink, and one bottle is fully equal to a gal
lon of the Syrup of Sarsaparilla, or the Decoction
as usually made.
KT THtSE EXTRACTS HAVE BEEN AD
MITTED TO USE IN THE UNITED STATES
ARMY, and are also in very general use tn all the
STATE HOSPITALS and PUBLIC SANITARY
INSTITUTIONS throughout the land, as well as
in private practices and are considered as invalu
