Fire. Many persons building dcw
houses are useing the llaltitnoro and Spear
Heaters for warming thoir rooms. If prop
erty set and applied they oro useful, eco
tintuiooJ and couvinieut. If uot properly
set ttey are very dangerou". Mr. Daniel
fcjmith, of Wilcox, put two info his new
house aod from each of them the house
tuck firo. The house of Hubert V. Kime,
Fsq., of this place toot fire two weeks ago
Iroin the tamo cause In both iutitHU
ccs the heaters were put intc chiuineyB
which were lathed aod plastered upon the
outside. No parson should e?er set them
la a lathed and plastered chimney ; when
they aro U'-eJ, let the plastering be put
drcctly upon the brinks, aud never allow
the heater to oomo iu contact with, or be
set so that any wood work is ucar it.
Wilcox is growing und thriving rapidly.
The Lumber Company at that plaC6 have a
large lot of Hemlock lumber on baud ready
lor maiket. The Kuipirc Li'io have offerd
rates of transpotation which the proprietors
thiuk will do to ship at. At al! eveuts the
experiment will be tried, and if the busi
ness pays, tlio hemlock timber of this coun.
ty will be a mine of wealth. Col. A. I.
Wilcox has about two millions of pine lum
ber to move to Wilcox from his mill, about
rcveu utiles from town, and the teams
havo commenced upon it. The horse Gun.
Grant rode, wliou he was there last sum
mer, will do duty in a board team this win
ter, unless hauling is cheaper than it has
been heretofore. Everything about Wilcox
has to wctk iu the winter.
OVEAX S TEAJISUU'S.
We have not much faith in the ability
of our peoplo to compete with tho mauufac-ture-cs
porting nations of Europe in buil
diug and running Iran Steamers across the
Atlantic. Of course they can be built and
run if Uncle Sam will loot the bill ; but he
has too many bills to foot already.
As to allowing steamships to be built for
us on the Clyde aud the Tyue, admitting
them free of duty, registering thtm as
American, and eluistning them Ontario,
Albauy, Massachusetts, it will never
go down. It wore a waste of breath to
discuss it. And the introduction of foreign
materials free of duty will be little more
acceptable. Who can insure that the
dra shack will not exceed the amount actu
ally paid into the Treasury ?
The best way to eucournge American
Fteaniahip-building is to offer und pay so
many dollars psr tuu for every first-class
Ocean Steamship that may hereafter be
built, uiaiuly of Amciican materials by
American wcikiiicn in American ship
yards. If those who profess a deep interest
in American, Commerce aud Shipping will
unite with us iu asking Congress to favor
(his policy, we sha'l hope for its adoption.

Livingstone's explorations in Africa
show that somewhere iu the interior of that
vast contiucut is a region highly elevated
aud sulubrious, aud of remarkable fertility
and already the keensighted traders are
speculating upon tho advautages which will
nccure to the nation first breaking into that
virgin field of operations. Tho New York
Times says, "our commercial posistioo gives
us, especially with an Istbmiau canal, the
full beuifit of any future South African
trade. For from ucar the Cape of Good
Hope, in direct Hue to the Equator, ou the
wcridan of Cape St. Koquo, nature baa
made the fiuestsca routo on the Atlantic ;
aud so certain and regular are the wiuds
whicn sweep the American trader home,
ward, that 6ai!ors have called this the Gull
Stream in the air." Important aod mighty
changes are os the eve of taking place in
the trade and commerce of the world, and
we should be prepared to clutch our full
share of the harvest

Mr. Ashbury, of tlu yacht Cambria, who

after tuking careful souudings ho is of the
opiniou that tio vessel drawing over nine

London, Deo. 9. Prices of rebel bonds

London, Dec. 9. Tho government will

London, Dec. U. The British steamer

SAD DUO WXIXG CASE.
Chester, Dec. 13. On Saturday after
uoou last the city of Chester was thrown in
to a conditiun of sad but ioteuscexoitcuie nt
by the. sudden aud unexpected taking away
of two much-loved and highly respected
young people, well known residents of this
city, named respectively Miss Mattie
Irwin and Harman Cochcran. Within
the cemetery iu this neighborhood is a small
lake, 4ti winter used as a skating park.
Miss Irwin and Mr Cochcran proceeded to
the lake, accompanied by a little girl, and
glided out upon the icj. Just as the
young couple had reached the deepest por
tiou cf the lake, the ice broke bcueath them,
and both were precipitated into the water.
Before aid could be brought to their assis
tance they had disappeaicd beneath the ice
Every effort was made by those who had
beeu attracted to tho spot to save them,
but owing to the rot tea condition of the ice,
and the want of ropes oro'.hcr material, it
was nearly an hour baforc the bodies were
recovered from the water. When found.
hey wcro tightly locked iu each other's
arms. 1 ho altair has cast cloom over
the entire city. Einjwrium Independent.
Gen. Thomas las been to Alaska, and
what does he find that we have for our seven
.millions and more of sterling coiu ? Ice
and snow, of course, and a few abandoned
coal mines, the care of a few hundreds or
thousands of degraded Aleut and Koloshe
Indians, most of whom "seem to havo no
control over thcir"pasMon for stiong drink,"
aud several millions of seals which, to be
worth anything, must be protected by a
garrison of from two to three hundred meu
with a revenue steamer, ai a cost that will
probably far exceed all the revenue that
will be derived from them. As ' to ever
settling the country, Geu. Thomas, looking
at it with the business eye of a soldier,
thinks that to be entirely out ct the qucs
tiou for the present, at least. The well
stocked gardens aud tropical verdure of
which we have heard so much dwindle
into a few radishes, potatoes, anil lettuce,
with barley, oats and wheat that will uot

Jake the elephaut off our hands we might
be induced to sell. X. Y. Tribune.

down by wooden stakes into the road, art
adopted in the parti of tho coasts of Den.

pends on the height of high water. Some
propose to use this dovico for the protection
of Alameda. The idea is, thai the forco

from the shore to such a degree that on
reaching it they have lost their power entir
ly. Tho mole is placed from a hundred
to a hundred and fifty feet outside. Frame
bulkheads have been tried in Alameda aud
