kijled accidentally. One hundred, families
are houseless. The fire resulted from care
lessness in Meyers’s bar-room. The ouild
ings and atreetsoare; crowded, with debris
and goods. Great credit is due to Generals
Dudley and Wood, and their men, for their
superhuman efforts to subdue the flames
and prevent pillage. Five or six buildings
were blown up to arrest thepfogre'saof the
flames. The .theatre caught Are but the
City Bank and' teltegraph office escaped.

The ImAum of Muscat.—a. rather amus
ing affair took place shortly afcerthecom
nieuoemeht ih toe summer of hostilities ne
tween Syed> Selem, Imaum of Muscat, and
Syed Toorkey, claimant of that dignity.
Byed,Belem, to protect, himself against ms
enemy, built a barricade of bags of rice and
dates across the eastern part of the town.
Syed Toorkey, being very short of provi
sions, made a desperate sortie from Fort
Jelalli, which he held, carried off the entire
barricade, and lived for some time upon it.
Syed Selem made another little mistake.
He called upon some of the wild tribes of
Arabs in the interior to come and aid him;
but, upon second thoughts, he came to the
conclusion that they might prove harder to
get rid of than Syed Toorkey, so he reoalled
his invitation, and placed guns in all the
roads to keep baok his allies if they should
nsist on coming.
