From Washington.
[Special. Despatch to the Bulletin.]

dent asserted it, and that it will occur before
the Waning of another moon.

to ftind the seven-thirties and compound
interest notes as rapidly as. possible. The

duce quite a sensation. •
Inauguration of the ?Mayor of N. York.
NEW Yonu, Jan. 2.—ME yozoffoffamn de
livered - his inaugural address, yesterday.
He argues that the City GoVernment should
be free from control by the State Legisla
ture. The funded debt of the city is over
$41,000,000, on account of which the Com
missioners of the Sinking Fund hold's9,-
500,000. The debt is amply .secured by.the
entire property of the city. He suggests . the
sale, at auction, of large, portions of the un
improved property of the city, virhich would
- now bring large prices. He believes. that
the city should hold and . contiol its markets,
wharves, piers, and ferry franchises, and is
-against the sale of them. The tax levy of
the year is over $18,000,000, of which $3,000,-
000 is for State Purposes, $4,750,000 for police
and other county purposes expended by the .
Commisaioners appointed by the" Legisla
ture, and $1,500,000 for riot damages and the
war bonds. The tax levy next year is ex
pected to be at least $3,000,000 less.
The Mayor recommends that the Cham
ber of Commerce be havited, to confer with
the Commissioners of the Sinking Fond on
the subject of iron piers and warehouses.
He hopes for the removal of the old mar
kets, which disgrace the city, and the erec
tion of new ones which would be an orna
ment. He calls for the prompt cleaning of
the streets and the prinif;ihment of all viola
tions of the city ordinances by throwing
garbage into the streets. He also suggests
sanitary regulations in view of the possibly
approaching cholera, and the vigorous en
forcement of the plans now in progress for
improved sewerage. He finally recom
mends a reduction of expenses and says he
will do' all in his power to thwart improvi
dent legislation and check extravagant
expenditures. •

The New York Legislature.
ALBANY, Jan. 2.—The Legislature met to
day. The Governor's message congratu
lates the legislatnre on :the return of an
hOnorable peace, and earnestly urges the
claims of maimed and disabled soldiers of
Nfivi• York for_ permanent' relief from the
General and State governments.
The Comptrollers report shows, a deft
cidney of ' $1,179,000.1. The receipts of the
fiscal year . , ending September 30th, were
$16,273,000. - Payments $16,183,000. The
funded debt of the State is ' 56,051,000,
$228,000 having been redeemed during the
year.
The Superintendent of Banks. reports,lo9
banks bonductinglitainess under the State
laws and that 193-have retired-from the old
system during the year, nearly all'of which
have been ,converted into national banks.
The amount of outstanding circulation is
about $27,000,000. The Goyernor speaks
favorably of the national banking system
and says the State has made steady progress
in agriculture and manufactures. The col
leges and academies of the State show a
gratifying continuance of prosperity and
usefulness; and the school system increases
in efficiency and importance. The Governor
suggests further legislation in view of the
increase of lawlessness and crime and ofr
sanitary measures to avert the cholera.
The receipts of the canal department for
the year 1865, show a decrease of $780,000
from the previous year, and the expenses of
repairs and maintenance of the canals ex
ceed that - of 1864 by $932,000. The aggregate
exceeds the surplus net revenue of the
canals by nearly $50,000. The canal debt
is $19,424,000, there having been paid during
the year $2,903,003; the balance of the sink
ing - fund available, to the payment of prin
cipal and interest, is $3,228,000.
. The Governor anticipates the payment of
the debt of 1864 by October 1868, reducing
the entire debt to $11,500,000. He does not
recommend present action on the subject o
the Niagara Falls ship canal, for constitu-f
tional reasons preferring to await the action
of the State Convention which will probably
meet early in 1867. He thinks a railroad
constructed exclusively for freight transit as
important; as even an enlargement of the
canals will, in his opinion, not long meet the
requirements of freight transportation, and
concludes with an exhortation for cordial
co-operation in support of the just- rights of
all citizens of the Union from which the
only element of weakness and danger has
been removed.
We should entertain no feelings of bitter
ness or unkindness to our misguided
countrymen, but be animated by a generous
forbearance. The end of the war is the
occasion of heartfelt joy and gratitude, that
the protecting hanil which upholds the
heavens has been our constant support.
State Comptroller Robinson's report says,
ther&is due from taxes by•Neliv, York city
$2,667,000, which if paid as it should have
been; would have left a surplus in the
Treasury in September 30th of 81,488.000,
instead of a deficiendy. The taxes are
now however in course of payment in the
city, where.they are not collected until the
fall, or nearly a year later than in the other
counties. .
The funded debt of the State is $13,613,000,
and the'Comptroller thinks a tax of 1- mill
on the dollar will be sufficient for the ex
penses of the State government. The ex
emptions-from taxation are unwise and un
just, and he thinks the currency should be
reduced.
The Auditor of the Canal department in
his report favors the: enlargement' of the
lockslof the Erie and Oswego canal, so as
to adinit the passage of steamers of 400 and
600 tons, running at a speed of 3i@4 miles
an hour, by which we can place wheat in
New York from Buffalo at 6c. per bushel
'over the tolls and perhaps at a less price.
He takes the same ground as the. Governor
in, regard to the Niagara Ship CaM3L.
New Years at Pottsville.

Several Buildings Dedrayed' ler
- :Damaged. ---
VERY I-lEAVY LOSS
This • morning, about half-past twelve
o'clock, a fire broke out in the large Pictot
stone building No. 607 Chestnut street.... The
names originated in the second story, which
was occupied by John Er. Simmons, dealer
in photographists' materials. The alarm
Was promptly sounded, and the firemen
were early upon the ground, but before they
could get fully to work fire had' gained
great .headway, and presented a very
threatening aspect. The 'a parent
which the fire began'was filled with com
bustible material, and the fire raged furl
,
ously.
Adjoining premises No. 607 on the east is
the large brown Stone clothing store of
Messrs, Rockhill & Wilson. At the rear
end of the western wall of this establish
merit,. at the second story, a- heavylass
partition only
e piarated it from ba ld ing
No. 607. Throe this partition the' fire
speedily work , its , way, and the upper
part of the structure was enveloped. A
considerable portion of the stock of Messra.
R. & W. was removed however.
No. 6Q7 Chestnut street, extended through
to Jayne street, anti at first the mass of the
fire appeared to be at the rear end. In a
half hour after the first alarm, the flames.
leaped forth from all the windows of :the
three .upper 'stories and shot high into the
heavens; creating a light which could be
seen for miles. Then a dense black smoke
rolled out; the fiery element burst through
for a moment or two t 'axid then all would be
darkness apin This scene continued for
nearly a half hour and was grand and awe
inspiring. The heat was great on Jayne
street, but the firemen maintained their
ground heroically,iand immense volumes of
water were thrown into the burning struc
ture by the steam engines. At one time
there were no less than fifty-eight streams
on the Jayne street front.
The eratensiv paper warehouse of Charles
Magarge & Co., at the southwest corner of
Sixth and Jayne streets, was in great
peril; but the windows being - protected by
iron shutters, it escaped damage.
Several small buildings on Jayne street,
immediately opposite the burning state tare,
took fire, but the firemen immediately
turned their streams upon them, and the
flames were extinguished before any serious
damage was done.
The roof of the Falstaff Hotel, at the north
west corner of Sixth and Jayne streets, took
fire several times, but no serious injury was
done.
Shortly after one o'clock the floors in the
interior of the building No. 607 Chestnut
Street began to fall through, and immense
volumes of sparks and cinders shot up in
the air and were wafted across the city in a
putheasterly,direction. These sparks fell
in showers in the streets and upon the sur
rounding buildings, but did no damage.
This was another very - pretty sight. By this
time the police and firemen had got fully to
work to rescue the goods from the buildings
threatened. Long lines of men with coats,
vests, clothes, boxes, itc., upon their shoul
der., were to be seen wending their way
down Chestnut street.
The goods wets take to the police station,
to the telegraph office and almost every
office along the State Rouse row.
Shortly before two o'clock the front cor
nice of building No. 607 came down with a
crash: This was rather unexpected and
caused the firemen and spectators to scatter
in all-directions. It was at first thought
that a number of parties had been
injured by the falling stone, but as far as
can be ascertained nobody was hurt. Other
portions of the front wall continued to fall
at intervals, and now but three stories re
main.
A general alarm was rung between one
and two o'clock, as the fire was raging so
fiercely and threatened the destruction of
the entire block. The firemen from other
districts then came upon the ground, and
as they arrived went immediately into
service.
By two o'clock the fire had been got
pretty 'well wider control by the firemen,
although an hour or two elapsed before it
was safe to allow the companies to depart
from the scene. As late as noon to-day
some of the timbers in No. 607 were still
burning and "several streams were required
to prevent further damage.
Building No. 607 Chestnut street, which is
totally destroyed, was owned by the
pro
prietors of the EVENING BULLETIN. The
front basement was occupied by R. Penit.-
tan as ale vaults, and the rear portion by
four express companies for the storage of
unclaimed packages.
The first floor was dccupied by Harnden's
Express, the Howard Express Company,
Howard & Co.'s Express, and Wells, Fargo
dr. Co. In the front portion were the desks
belonging to the several companies, and the
rear part was used as the regular freight
storage depot. The books, papersand valua
ble packages in the front were rescued. The
money packages were in the fire proof safe,
which escaped the flames. The greater part
of the freight on the first floor was removed.
The second story was occupied by John
H. Simmons, manufacturer of photograph
materials. His stock is a total loss.
The third floor was occupied by Herbert,
Oesterle & Baner,•dealers and manufactu
rers of gimps, laces and fancy trimmings.
This firm also occupied the fifth story.
The fourth story was occupied by Joseph
As eel; bookbinder, as a sheet room.
The losses of all the occupants are suite
heavy, but are pretty well covered by insu
rance in nearly all the city companies.
Nos. 603 and 605, the four-story brown
stone store owned and occupied by Messrs.
Rockhill & Wilson, as a clothing house was
badly damaged in the upper part, and the
whole -structure was deluged with water.
The 'stock was principally removed, and
was thereby somewhat injured. The loss is
estimated at $50,000. The building is insured
in .the Fire- Asioxiation, Hand-in-Hand,
PennsylvanlEs and other city companies.

Of the last century, and it was considered
the most magnificent stracture of, the kind
In the country: In the year 1822. the theatre
took fire and the flames spreading through
,the structurewith great rapidity, the entire

theatre was rebuilt at once and the new
structure Wan the one so wellkliown to most
of the present generation Philadelphians
as the Chestnut Street Theatre, or "Old
Drury," as it Came to be known.
' On t.he night of :December 26th, 1851, the
great fire at Hart's Building took place, and
the flames extending itollte westward,: de
stroyed the Shakespeare Suilding on the
opposite corner and adjoining the Theatre.
The Shakespeare Building was totally de
stroyed, together with the buildings north
of it onSixth - ntreet.
In 1854 the Chestnut Street Theatre was
taken down, and the buildings now num
bered 603 and 605. and 607 and 609, were
erected on the site. The Brown Stone
Clothing Hall of Rockhill At Wilson occu
pied the eastern half of the theatre lot, and
two beautiful Picton stone structures were
erected by Mr. Rulings Cowperthwait on
the western half.
In the year 1865 the EvEierge) BULLETIN

and they were waiting to secure possession
of the property, in order to fit it up for their
publication office. It will be rebuilt with
out delay, and at once occupied by the Buz.-

that it will be long before the site already
ravaged by , three destructive conflagrations
will be visited by a fourth.
