Jtev* John F. Chaplain then addressed the meet
ing. 110 said there were tests to driscriminato
Christians. True Christians will communicate the
good they have to their destitute brethren- No
man can httYt? the love of God in him who does not
lore his brother. Every one who possesses a Bible
has n treasure, which should be as much cherished
and loved as at the time when these books were
few and iwt possefsed by ninnyi The Bible gives
him spiritual food. It is the light of the world.
Kow. we have this light, and if we are true Chris
tians how can we keep it from those around us?
IVe should go still more earnestly to work, for,

I'XIO.N SERVICES AT THE FIRST REFORMED DUTCH

Recent Fires in Philadelphia.
Fire Marshal Blackburn has issued a partial re
port. making mention of a number <?f firCs sdb3e«
<juent to the iattcr part Of October.
A majority of the fire 3 referred to were of a
trifling character, but some few were highly de
structive, and of these the Marshal has made pro
minent mention. Oa the SOth of October the most
destructive and disastrous single conflagration that
has occurred in the city’ since the date of the ap
pointment of the fire marshal—a period of four
yoflTP and five months—happened at a large manufac
turing establishment on the corner of Twelfth street
and Washington avenue, known as Craig's Mills.
The buildings—some of them five and §(5 stories
high—occupied an area of ground nearly a quarter
of a rquare in extent, and they were filled with an
immense amount of valuable machinery, besides a
heavy srock of gmterial and finished goods. Th*
works were turning out flannel cloth, shirts,
drawers, haversacks, and knapsacks for the army,
and between two and three hundred hands were
employed on these eo» track?.
The total damage does not fall much short of
$5100.000. less than one-half of which sum was
covered by insurance, thus leaving a clear loss of
more than $50,000 to s&y nothing of the tempo
rary stoppage of work on articles so urgently de
manded at this time by the soldiers of the Union
causfiK and. what is still more sad, the throwing,out
pf employment of bo many needy operative juri
the commencement of winter. The sufferers by
this conflagration were the heirs of ’the estate of
Beth Craig, deceased; JbhnFrazier, JihnandWil
.son V.'att, William Dunlap, Joseph M. Davw, F.i
ward M(.‘Clean. Cary & Barr, Mills A Booth, Myers
Ackley, and George Campbell. The insurance
companies which sustained losses were the State of
Pennsylvania. Philadelphia Fir© and Life, Girard,
Commonwealth, Manufacturers 4 , and one or two
others in this city; and the Royal of Liverpool,
Fulton, Lorrillard and Manhattan of New York,
jEtaa of Hartford, Conn., and the Springfield,
Mas. 3 . No one of these companies, however, had a
larger risk than $5,000.
A thorough investigation into the origin of the
file sIIOW e& that the disaster was the result of gro33
carelessness on the part of ignorant and reckless
employees.
The flames burst out suddenly before the eyes of
tto YiothuicDi in one of the among a
lot of several thousand muslin haversacks, freshly
painted and varnished, and which had been hung
in too close proximity to a steam-pipe that pissed
through the apartment. In the preparation of the
coating of the haversacks, as a substitute for tur
pentine, the contractor used benzine, which, in its
tendency to ignition, is almost as hazardous as guu
pQTrder.
At an early hour on the morning of the 14th of
November, the large iron works of Messrs. Ridg
way A Co . corner of Clinton and Ash mead streets,
Germantown, vr«r4j vrfao irero en*
gaged iu the manufacture of bayonets for the
United states Government, were totally destroyed
by fire. Loss about $12,000 ,* insured for 000 in
the Mutual losuranee Company of Germantown.
Rumor attributed this fire to some rebel incendiary,
but an examination by the fire marshal satisfied him
that there was no evidence tfhftteYSr of design. On
the contrary, all the circumstances went to estab
lish the fact that the cause of the conflagration was
accidental.
On the morning of the sth of November, the OS*
itaVlishmeutof H. Fughe, manufacturer Of leather
[for the linings of military hats and caps, in Miller
street. Second ward, was burned out. The build-
ings occupied bulwged to the Search estate. There
was a lolal loss, by Si© fire, of about $2,500. The
reai estate was not insured. Mr. Pughe had a po
licy on his stock, machinery, and fixtures, in the
Commonwealth Loss to that company, $l,OOO.
The mi.-kap was a case of sudden ignition in a dry
ng*room, the result of hurry and the neglect of
rare in too regulation of the fires. The finishing
i*at of varnish on the skins, wUttfli WCT© dried in
1 vens by heat passing through sheet-iron pipes,
ras prepared with benzine, as a substitute for tur
lecline.
On sruudoy morning, November 24, fire was dU
overed in the large old four and a half story brick
uilding, No. 905 Market street, in the e3tablUh
lent of Messrs. Warden & Co,, who have contracts
:om the Government for manufacturing horse
equipments and infantry accoutrements. The fire
figinated, at a late hour of the uight, in a heap of
Aversncks. belonging to Joseph M. Davis, and
vhick had been sent to this factory to be strapped,
fhe coating of the haversacks which had been re
cently varnished, contained benzine.
They were temporarily Stored in a szq&U 9IOSO
00 in In the attic, and the pile heating, spontaneous
Otnbcstlon ensued. The premises sustained only
rifling injury by the fire, but considerable damage
T&9 <loue bv waW, especially to a large and vulua-
le stock of hardware in the store of Pemberton

aranee of $B,OOO, $4,000 in the Reliance and
4,000 in the Fire Association.
The Fire Marshal, in the course of late investi

The recent frequent burning of manufacturing
establishments, where Government orders were be
ing filled, in different parts of the loyal section of
the Union, has created some alarm in the public
mind. Many people lmve had misgivings of treach
ery being at work, and certain sensation newspaper
paragraphs have induced the belief that rebel in
cendiaries were applying the torch. The Fire Mar*
shal cannot speak for other cities and towns, but
ft* far as Philadelphia is concerned, ho is gratified to
state that out of about one dofiCH business plftOQS
doing Government work, that have been either de
stroyed or damaged by fire, since last spring, there
was not a particlo of testimony obtained to prove
that a solitary concern w«s designedly fired.
Stadjiixa Affair,—Yesterday afternoon an
altercation took place between a party of colored
n on, in a low den at Seventh and Baker streets, du
ring which one of them, named Kulan, was soverely
stabbed in the right breast, lie was taken to the
hospital. A man. who had also been stabbed, was
arrested upon the charge of cutting Kulan.
Charged with Swimming.—A man who,
for many venrsi was an importer of wines and
liquors, on” Front street, was arrested on Wednes
day, by Betectivo Taggart, on the charge of swind
ling. His method of operation was as follows : A
short time ago he opened an account in the Manu
facturers and Mechanics’ Bank, under a false name.
In a few days he deposited a check on the Kensing
ton Bank for $2OO. and then drew against it to the
amount of $l3O or thereabouts. Ilis chock was
signed with his real name. The check, on being
presented at the Kensington Bank, wag pronounGcd

The prisoner was committed, in default of $l,OOO,
by Alderman Beitlcr.
Arrest of Colored Pickpockets Tas
terdny afternoon, four well-known colored thieves—
Joe Kirby, Pete Keys, Josh Beal, and Luke Sulli
van—were arrested, at Eighth and Chestnut, by
Detectives Carlin and Henderson Xhc priaoUQM
w’ere all engaged around one woman, in trying to
pick ber pocket. It is supposed that Kirby is the
same individual who served a term of imprisonment
in the penitentiary, about four years since, for a
similar offence. This jg the only cnso, since thou,
In which colored pickpockets have figured. The
prisoners will have a hearing to-day.

Disease Amoxg Hogs. —The disease known,
as the “ hog cholera” is now prevailing among the
porkers in our adjoining counties to an extent never
before known. It is singularly fatal in its effects,
very few jmimAld surviving lb? attacks, What
makes the disease the more destructive ia the fact
of its being infectious; so that when one of a lot of
hogs is attacked, all thereat are almost certain to
contract it unless speedily removed fo another pOU.
Military Presestatiox.— On Wednesday
a number of gentlemen presented to Captain B.
Fullmer, of Company K. of Cborman's Regiment

Flax Cotton
At the last of Ihe Rhode Island Society
for the encouragement of Domestic Industry’, held
at Providence, the judges appointed to examine
the specimens of flax cotton made ths following
report x
“ The undersigned committee, appointed to ex
amine the flax cotton offered for premium at the
fair held in this city, on the lltli day of September
tasti respectfully represent that tlay h ave care
fully inspected all the samples that were contri
buted on that occasion, and having in view the
terms on which the premiums were offered—viz :
‘Fit for use on cotton machinery, 7 and ‘accompa
nied with a statement of its culture, production,
and preparation, including the cost of the various
processes, 7 they are of opinion that none of the
contributors are entitled to the premiums so of
fered.
u lt however, due to the enterprising
man who represented Mr. Stephen Randall’s pro
cess for breaking the flax, to say that flax, as pre
pared by them for working with wool, is, in the
judgment of the committee, much more valuable
than cotton in'all fabrics In which cotton Is now
mixed with wool, and in some kind of goods ap
pears to be desirable as a partial substitute for wool
itself.
11 Feeling a warm faforest in the substitution of
flaar for COU9D, they hare investigated the subject
more thoroughly than was required, simply to
discharge the duties for which they were selected,
and are led to believe that the
for ultimate success to© strong to allow the
investigation to rest here.
“ Therefore, they hope that the society will de
vise some plan whereby this investigation may be
continued, until the question whether or not flax
can be used am an economical substitute for cotton
on cotton machinery, is practically settled.

burn, S. IV. Mowry, Albert Waterman, Stephen

The committee Kiel ou the flSth of October, when
the foregoing report was accepted, and the follow
ing vote was passed:
“ Voted. That the judges bo requested to con
tinue their labors and investigations until a satis
factory result of the pwiAkiaablliiy- 0 f fl aas cotton aa
a fibre for manufacturing purposes is obtained, or
its impracticability proved. 77
The chairman of the committee was at the same
time authorized to appoint a committee raise
such funds as may be required for the contemplated
action of the judges. 77 Subsequently, the chair
man announced that the several members of the
committee on flax culture were appointed members
of the proposed committee to raise funds.
