Xvocsal izitcalligessoo. Fird-Seurle, Hotel Burned. Our community were startled on Sunday morning last about 2,! ; ',' o'clock by the direful alarm of fire from which we had been exempt for a long time. The flames were first discovered in the News Office of Geo. on Public Avenue, two doors above Searle's Hotel, kept by Charles M. The r alarm was not given until the flames were seen bursting out of the roof of the News Mee, but in time to save all the effects of the Express Office, which adjoined the hotel. Our efficient firemen were upon the ground immedi ately, but the fire spread so rapidly that before their pipes could be brought to bear upon it the Express Office and Hotel below, and Harvey Stamp's grocery above, were being rapidly enveloped in flames. There was hut little sir stirring, which was in deed very fortunate, for with a common wind lila believed that no human agency could have prevented the &sumo:ton of all the row of bpild trigs on the west side of Public Avenue, our of. nee being ineludtsi. It ~,on beetune apparent that the hotel must burn, and busy hands were at work removing the contents, while the fire men, in connection with a bucket company, underthe direction of Avery Frink, stuateoled almost against hope in arresting its further pr., grew; beyond Harvey it Stamp's grocery. The name efficient work was U done upon the building west of the hotel 7 .ith the Nam , happy result, and almost as miraculous as it al, pears to those who viewed the situation, 11., buildings were destroyed except the Hotel, Ea press Office and News Office, all of which wet,. owned by Leonard Searle, The total loss is estimated at about $15,000.

Such be ing the case, their loss will be considerable. Being one of the number who wa.s in immin ent danger, we can truly say that bad it not been for the very praiseworthy efforts of our efficient fire department, we believe we should not be sit ting at this time securely in our sanettim pen ning this article_ We cannot say that we would be glad to return the compliment, as we hope none of them will be similarly situated.— But we shall hold than in grateful ca - m(11- branee.

Closing Cracks in Stos-es js may be convenient to kno' a ready method of chishig ep cracks, which are not tinconitnon. In asst-iron-stores; and we are assured that the following receipt is a reliable one. Good wood asket are to be sifted through a fine sieve, to which is added the same quantity of clay, finely pulverized, together with a little salt. The mix ture is to be moistened with water enough to make a paste, and the creek of the stove filled with it. This cement dotal not peel off or break away, and assume, an extreme deg,rce of hard ness after being heated. The stove must be cool when the application is made. The same suit statues may be used in setting the plates of a stove, or in fitting stove pipe, serving to tender all the joints perfectly tight.—Piai. l.e fps r. A New Floor Coverin,7. An exchange says "Save all your newspa pma, and when you get enough for the purpose, makeapaste as for putting on wall paper, and lay them down, one by one, pasting them till }our door ii covered, then let it dry ; then lay another in the same way. When again dry get some wall paper of a suitable color, and paste all over it. When dry go over it again with a good coat of varnish, and you hare a good cov ering for your Soar, which will wear as long as carpet, and look as well as oil cloth. This is a cheap method of covering bedrooms that arc not much used." lar.Non-paying subscribers arc thus talked of by a Western editor: "Wagons cannot run without wheels, boats cannot run without steam,'bullfrogs cannot jump without legs, or a newspaper Carried on everlastingly without money, no more than a • dog can wag his tail when he has none. Our subscribers are all good, but what good does a man's goodness do when It don't do any good? We have no doubt that every one thinks that, all have paid except him self:end/fa we are a clever fellow, and his no. 0 9Frq is a tittle matter, it Makes no difference. SLUMP ' _ 1 Explanatory. Since the publieution, in the DRAIOCILAT of lest week, of the report of the public meeting relating to the Judiciary question, a dispute has arisen among those participating in the meeting, 'as to the second resolution. The author of the resolution, and others, think it was intended to cover all the bills pending in the Legislature (or any to be presented) in reference to additional Judges and new places for bolding the courts. I But several lawyers present at the meeting claim that the 'subject of an additional Judge was not properly under consideration, and that those words in the resolution, as printed, were not adopted or intended to be adopted, so fares they !'understood. It is proper to here state, What I was not known to the public, that several !aw -1 , vets had signed a petition or letters in favor of I the passae,c of an act to provide for an addition ! al Judge; hence they could not consistently op pose it. This card is published to explain that the participants in the meeting differ as to its real object. The reporting Secretary was not prts ent during the discussion prior to the adoption of the resolutions. and only citnsented to act as reporter upon condition that the resolutions, &c., should he furnished hint. He correctly •re• ported what was reduced to writing and handed to him, at is shown by the original draft of the dhputed resolution which has been presented. J. G.

It snowed nearly qll Tuesday more or less, and the weather turned suddenly cold, the thermometer falling to four degrees be low zero. Yesterday it moderated slightly, and to-day the ice men are in their glory. We have had four days of sleighing, which for Pittsburg is wonderfill. To-night the atuwsphere betake= another snow storm. The Vcl of February passed off quietly, the Government offices, banks and the courts ob serving It. The day was intensely cold, and the ft'ature of the occasion was the parade of the Duquesne Greys a sPfendid military organisation, who notwithstanding the cold weather, acquit ted themselves nobly. Wagers seem to be the order of the day, and challenges Ere very prevalent. The latest sensa tion of this kind wax a challenge issued yodel . - day by a Presbyterian Kelleher of Allegheny city, who proposes to tilt for the championship of Allegheny county, the champion to be re warded with an elegant bible. What next ! The American citizens of African descent, are holding pow-wows this week to try to raise means for a Fifteenth amendment celebration.

We learn 'that on Monday afternoon last. a terrible explosi,m occurred at one of the Scranton Rolling Mitls, by which nine persona were killed. and several more severely (s,.me fatally )'injumil. The build ing was completely demolished. Alt Amusing Experiment. Procure four glass tumblers or common glazed teacups, and having wiped them as dry as possi- Ede. hold them over the tire to evaporate shy moisture that may adhere to the surface, for if there is the least moisture it makes a connection and spoils the experiment. Place them upon the floor in a square, about one toot apart. place a piece of board upon the tumblers, and have a per..on stand upon it. This person is now com pletely insulated . , the glass being a non-conduct or of ekericity. Now take a cetntuon rubber comb, and has Mg wound a pier' of silk around one end rd it, rub it briskly through the hair, and draw the teeth pandlel to the insulated per son's knuckhx, leaving a little spare between the tomb and the person's hand. The result will be a sharp, cracking noise, and if dark, there will be Wren 3 sin - cession of sparks. Hr peat the proems until the phenomena cease. The person is now charged with electricity, the same as A Leyden jar. To draw off the electric ity. approach your knuckles to the person's head or his no+e, (being careful not to allow ant por tion of your hotly to come in contact mitt 116,) and there will be a loud snap, and the sparks wilt he very brilliant. If a eat be held KO that the charged person can place his knuckles in proximity with the animal's nose, it will sud denly appear as if it were in contact with an electric battery. A. glass bottle may he used in lieu of the moth, but it is not so well adapted for the purpose. Much amusement may be de rived from this extremely simple experiment, and some ofAtir numerous young readers will Listen to ti•S'it fur themselves.
