Tut Cincinnati Gazrite says that "Bjn the eve of the Presidential election the Democratic party is bur dened with a large majority in the lower Louse of Congress, a contest for Speakership, a general war upon Presidential aspirants within its rank, a dispute as to whether the rag baby is dead or alive, a geucial set-back in the State elections, and ether troubles too numerous to men tion." TVe Lave herefore doubted somc wLat, but it looks to us now as if the 'Teoples' Freight Railway" was a Exed fact. Work has been cm tuenced upon it in Perry county, and already the Supreme Court has been akked to enjoin the directors from proceeding further. Evidently the Pennsylvania R R. is afraid it is go ing to be built, bence the injunction prayed for. Got. IlaiTaANfT has not yet se lected a saccessor to Attorney Gen oral Dim mick.

Tue Chicago Timet thus character ires tbe average Democrat : "He is politically tbe stupidest thing on tbe planet, and must confirm to the re quirements of Lis stupidity. Inca pable of bringing himself forward to the living present, he will continue to vote for tbe dead and buried Dem ocratic party, and to expect the mountain to open and release from bis sepulchre of ages tbe rock-rooted Democratic Babarossa." That sturdy Roman, Judge Persh ing, was during tbe late canvass, lauded to tbe echo by bis Democrat ic supporters for doing bis duty, by sentencing to the penitentiary a cou ple of Democratic County Commis sioners for defrauding the county treasury of Schuylkill, they will now have another opportunity of bestow ing their plaudits on another judge for sending to tbe same prison tbe Democratic Protbonotary and Li clerk ia Luzerne county for altering the election returns, and thereby at tempting to cheat tbe Republican candidates cot of their election. It is eigbteea years since a lemo- crat presided over the House of Rep resentatives. TLe last Democratic was Orr. of South Corliua. whose term expired March 4, 1S69. II was succeeded by Pennington, be by Grow, be by Colfax, and he by Biaine. The struggule between the various Democratic aspirants for this positon bids fair to prove one of great bitterness. Nine candidates bave already been named: Keer and Uolman, of Indiana; Cox and Wood, of New Terk; Saylor and Fayne, of Ohio; Randall, of this State; Lam ar, of Mississippi, and Walker, of Virginia, not one of whom, except, possibly, Kerr, is entitled to much respect either for abilities or charac ter.

Late advices from Washing ton say that political circles are deep ly stirred with a rumor started since tbe elections are over, that the ex Confederates Lave organized with a viow of controlling the approaching organization of tbe House. Tbe pro gramme ii said to be tke election of a Northern Democrat as Speaker, and tbe apportionment of tbe other offi cers, such aa clerk, aergeant-at-arms, and doorkeeper among Southern men.

J . c ., . were the which the ! , , . , . . j frauds in Baltimore by Democratic citv and State ticket : " i were successful at the late elections that the Ltmocratic press is compell- e(j t0 a(3nj;t tLern. The swindled candidate lor Attorney General, S. Tcacle Wallace, Esq., Las addressed a note to Governor Groome, giving notice of Lis intention to contest tbe election, and wc presume that other contests will also follow. The fact that from Governor down to tbe emallert office, the entire Democratic ticket was carried by the most un blushing frauds and personal out rages upon the opposition voters, is susceptible of the clearest proof, in fact is admitted. Now let us see whether there i3 honesty enough in the Democratic party of Maryland to grant a fair investigation, and do justice not only to the defrauded can di dates, but to the majority of the voters in that State. Frank Hughes of Pottsville, the champion of rerehinij in the late canvass, and the ppecial advocate in this State of inflation, evidently con siders tbe Democratic party no longer available as a political organization, and therefore virtually abandons it. He is out in a letter in favor of a new party, based chiefly of tbe doctrine of a legnl-tender paper currency. ne atks the co-operation of tbe men of all parties who favor, Erst, the immediate and unconditional re peal of the resumption act of tbe last Congress ; and second, a Govern ment legal-tender paper currency, re ceivable for ail debts, public and private, except where contracts re quire payment in coin, and made convertible into Federal bonds, the principal of which shall be payable n gold, and the interest on which shall be fixed at such a rate as will keep the bonds at par with gold ; such issue to be limited only by the wants of trade as determined by the reconversion ot sucn legal tenclerB into the bonds and back again. This is tbe scheme of a mere demagogue, by which it is hoped to array the rag, tag, and bobtail of the population in a mass, against the re sumption of specie payments and an honest currency. It baa no political significance, except that it shows the ntter disintegration of the once great democratic party of Pennsylvania by the fact that one of its adnritted leaders thus openly proposes to aban don not only its organization, but all its past traditions and principles, for tbe sake, as be hopes, of overthrow ing the paity in power. It is, in short, a proposition to base a party on the single cry of "anything to beat tbe Republicans." OI K XE YORK LETTER. New York, November 12, 1S75. BERGIl'S GOOD WORK.. Henry Bergh's new Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children is doing as good a work as his old one for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, lie bas turned bis atten tion to the thousand and one shows in tbe city. AttheTivoli Gardens, iu 8;b street is a boy acrobat, adver tised under the name of "Prince Leo," who nightly performs tbe most diffi cult feats on tbe tight-rope. He is iittie, wee cniia, not over six rears of age, delicate and pretty as possi ble. A man named Leonard, a brute of a fellow, owns bim, and has taught him not only the common feats of tight-rope performers, but many more startling and dangerous. Leonard compelled bim to walk the tight-rope blindfolded, to ascend and descend a rope fastened at an angle of iorty-five degress, and a score more of other feats which tbe oldest equilibrists decline to undertake, and all without any netting underneath to save bim in the event of falling. Bergh stationed a few officers in tbe audience, and when Leonard and the boy appeared tbey sprang npon the stage and seized tbem both. At the examination the next morning, it was shown that the child was tbe 60 n of a drunken rag-picker rn Phila delphia, that tbe father sold him to Leonard, w ho has trained bim. Leon ard bas habitually beaten, starved and abused bim. When practicing, if the child failed in the slightest particular, tbe brute would kick and brnise bim, without mercy. He per forms none of the feats willingly; in fact, there is terror in bis face from the moment be is forced npon the rope till be is through. He trembles so with fear during bis performance that the chances of failure are large ly increased, but be does it because he knows that if be fails be takes tbe chance of being killed by the fall, and that if be escapes that, his brute of a master will half-kill him with beating. Think of putting a bey seven rears old. on a email rope stretched from floor to ceiling, a dis tance of sixty feet, at on angle of forty-five degrees, and compelling kim to crawl up the terrible incline ! And then when at the top, sixty feet from the fcUga, to slide down the steep descent with frightful Telocity, grasping we rope obit wno n ""bpgp,a arms 01 cis uinenri. . , , 4 , Jndge Donohue, will put the child in the charge of tbe Society, who wi'I 2nd bim a borne. BergU will go through all the 6hcws, and take every one of these children out of tbe bands of tbe brutes who own them. It is estimat ed that there are three thousand children in the city similarly employ ed, in the cheap theatres and in beg ging on the streets, who ere 6laves in every sense of the word. Mr. Bergh proposes to emancipate them. HOW THE RICH ME LIVE. Be:au5e a man happens to be rich it does not follow that be lives in !gorgeou8 8tyle. Iodeed lhe . bloated k U0 UVUUU aristocrat vi .fw iont, or me moi-i of them, live as quietly as other peo ple, and a great deal more so than those whose wealth is of ino;e recent date. Yanderbilt, wbose wealth runs up a long way into the million, lives on Fourth street, a most un fashionable neighborhood in New York, in a very plain house. Sam Tilden lives on 20tb, near Fourth Avenue; Peter Cooper on the corner of 22d and Lexington Avenue. Cy rus W. Field, on Gramercy Park, and Hamilton Fish, on 1 7th and Sec ond Avenue. Daniel Drew's abode is on tbe corner of 17th and Broad nay. AH these locations have been abandoned by the fashionable, years ago, but the old fellows love tbeir homes, and stay in them. Teter Goelet, one of trie richest men in New York, lives on tbe corner of 10th and Broadway, in an aid bouse with ground enough about it to pasture a cow, and he keeps bis cow on it. The ground is worth probaly $500, 000, but Goelet is fond of milk, and he wants it fresh and good. Counting in the interest on tbe ground, the old gentleman's milk costs bim about $10 per quart, but be doesn't care for that. He wants good, sweet milk in bis coffee and he gets it. A.T.Stewart, has a wonderful mansion on 5tb Avenue, but I rather thing be built it more for an adver tisement for Lis business than any thing else. The shoddy aristocrats the sud denly rich all live on 5th Avenue, and tbe streets that run into it above 25th. They are obliged to get into this location to show that they are rich those whose wealth is known and acknowledged can do as they please. I should prefer to be an an cient millionaire, for I should want tbe privilege of living where I sar fit without having snobs to put me out of conceit witb myself. MOODY AND 6AXKET are not the sensation th?y were when tbey began. You can get into the Rink now, without the slightest trouble, and unoccupied seats begin tosiiow.- Still the Evangelists keep up their efforts with as much vigor as ever, and the religious elewent of Brooklyn seems to be in no wise dis couraged. While their success is not what we anticipated, tcere can be no question that tbey bave accomplished great good. They Lave succeeded in awakening tne proteasing cnnstians to a more keen sense of iheir duty; tbey bave brought back backsliders, and bave alarmed thousands of sin ners. The requests for prayers come from every Slate in the Union. Moody's method is peculiar. He selects a subject for each meeting, and compels the attention of tbe audience to that one subject, and nothing else. For instance the other morning tbe subject was "Love." Frequently a good brother, in the course of his remarks, would get at some other phase of Christian experi ence, bu the moment he did so Moody would brinir bim back. He had to talk of "Love" or nothing. They now hold five meetings a day. A WONDERFUL WORK Or ART. A memento of interest is tbe por trait of Washington, woven of silk by tbe Jacquard loom, in Lyons, twenty years ago. Not a dozen cop ies ot tbis curiosity exist, and tbe marvelous tkill of tbeir workman ship, together with tbeir rarity, put a high value on tno6e in private bands. The owners of the Jacqnard loom wove pictures in tbe same manner of the crowned beads of Europe. Na poleon I, Josephine, Yictoria, tbe Pope, and Charles X., among the rest, which were always reserved as presents for sovereigns, one copy be ing made for each member of a royal family, after which the frames were destroyed o that no more could be produced. Tbe United States con sul at Lyons seeing these portraits, suggested to the manufacturers that there were millions of sovereigns in our country, and it would be well to present tbem with a picture of their Washington. Tbe firm, Ponson, Philippe fi Viberty, agreed, if the consul would give them an authentic portrait of Washington, and an engraving after Smart's Washington was selected as a model. Tbe labor of making one of these silk pictures is something in credible. It took two years to con struct tbe loom, three engineers work ed at the design, and 28,000 sheets of cardbcard were used in wearing. TLe chain is of white silk, the filling of black and white, each stitch, guid ed by passing through a perforated bit of card, which as it was used, rose to tbe top of tbe loom and was cut off. The best of the Quest silk is used for these woven pictures. An expert selected from a hundred pounds of the choicest raw Bilk only ten pounds fit for the purpose, the rest going to make superlative dress silks! Of tbe portraits made, the first was for Mr. Goodrich, wbose idea it was to have this imperishable souvenir of Washington; tbree others were pre sented through him to tbe cities of Boston, New York and Philadelphia. One now bangs in tbe Boston Atbene um, the New York copy is in the Governor's room at tbe City Hall. A few others found tbeir way by gift or exchange to private bands. Con sul Goodrich entreated that copies bought be multiplied and sent here, urging Miat a furtune might be made by tbe sale of them, but the French men shrugged tbeir shoulders, obsti nate on a point of pride which was with them to keep these weavings unique. Mr. Goodrich was lately offeied $5,000 for his picture by a millionaire of this city, who is a col lector of curious things, but this offer was no temptation. A copy of this silk engraving is in tbe pos session of Mr. O. S. Baldwin of Brooklyn. The picture has every appearance of a steel engraving in line and strip pie, is peculiarly soft and rich in shad kig.and an admirable study of Stuart's portrait. Of the thousands w bo have seen one of the five first copies in tbe Governor's room, not one ia ten thousand has bad the slightest idea that it is one of the marvels of nine teenth centnry inventions. No one detects tbe fabric except by closest scrutiny, but it is silk and well nigh imperishable. TBI NEXT DEMOCRATIC CAXDIDATE FOB TBI FRXSItVI.NCY. Gor. Sam Tilden a . few months jago was confident of being tbe next Democratic cnuditlate lor tue i resi dency. He had it all fixed. His programme was to help to beat Al ien in Ohio, which would settle Lim ; to help elect Pershing in Pennsylva nia, which be could afford to do, Pershing having no presidential ws piralions, and then to make bis name the rallying cry of the Democracy of New York, which was to carry tbe State by C0,000. A pretty pro gramme, was it not ? But somehow it didn't work. Allen was barely beaten in Ohio, Pershing was unmer cifully beaten in Pennsylvania, and the cry of "Tilden and Reform" was beaten 20,0fltf fn the : citv ( of New York, and escaped defeat in tbe State br only 17,000!" Where does that leave the calculating Tiluoa : Allen is as strong as ever he was, ; and if there is a man on earth who k.iurrJ tt.o nnitrir.i haired of 1 i Western Democrats that man is I den. i'tuneyivania jjeiuocracy owes him nothing, for with his help they were beaten out of their boots, and no man from New York need enter the ring, who has Tammany stuck to him.and wLo came so near linking the party in the Slate. Exit Tilden... If be ever had a chance it is gone. Small men should . never undertake large combinations. . The Democra cy must look elsew here for a candi date. And when it conies to a poiut the people of New York are not as fond ot the Democracy as they were on general principles. Now that TAXES ARE HIGHER THAN EVER tbey remember that the city has been under Democratic rule for years, and fo wLatever is bad in the govern ment, which is to say, the entire gov ernment, that party is responsible. When business was beaoiing, and wbn the property-owner had merely to put figures on bis property, they did not care for taxes. But now it is quite different. Rents are down a half, and thousands of buildings are standing empty, while taxes are mounting up frightfully. Tbe taxes have to be paid whether business yields profit or not. And now that tbey are worried to raise money to nay their taxes, they begirt to find that it pays to pay some attention to I j - - nolitics. and the more men think the less Democracy suits them. It was tbis feeling that overthrew Tammany this fall it is .his feeling that will give the State to the Ref ublicans next year, sure. The rings that have plunered tbis citr and Brook lyn own the Democratic party, and tbe tax-pavers find mat tcey can on ly kill tbe rings by killing the party. Democracy in New York is not a corpse yet, but tbe oeath-rattle is iu its throat. Let us make a judicions nomination, and tnere win oe no trouble about carrying Ne York. : EEECHER. Beecher may be cs popular ar ever iu bis own church, but bo is not out side of tbat body. He attended the Moody and SaoFey meetings quite regularly up to last Saturday.- TLe clergymen present on tbat day were invited to remain after tbe meeting, to consult as to tbe best means of carrying on tbe work, and Beecber stayed with tbe rest, but, alas? be was coldly received, and many of tbe reverends did not speak to bim at all. He has not been at tbe Rink since. In his sermons he speaks of Moody as "Brother Moody" but tbe evangelist always prefixes the plain "Mister" to Beecher's name. there is no getting rid of tbe fact,tue public bave lost confidence in Beecb er. He does not stand where be did two years ago, and never will. Innocent or guilty, he has , lost bis grip, and tbe sooner he withdraws from public gaze the better it will be for his name. Pieiro. Unlbord' Bnrlal. The bones of Joseph Guibord were yesterday laid to rest in Cote des Nieges, the parish cemetery at Montreal, in which be purchased a lot during bis lifetime, but from which his body was debarred for six years by an ecclesiastical decree, which WA3 finally annulled by tbe Queen's Privy Council. A brief re view of tbe incidents of this remar kable contest between tbe civil and the ecclesiastical authority may not be out of place. - Josepb Guibord was a French Canadian printer in Montreal, whose fame aud promi nence have been entirely post-mortem, as be was in bis life nnknown outside his own circle of friends. Whin tbe Institut Canadien, a free reading room and library, was found ed, Le became a member. Tbe In siitut had upon its shelves certain books thai were interdicted by the Papal Index, and Bishop Bourget ex communicated its members. Guibord, however, refuted to Bever bis connec tion with tbe Institot. In 18G9 be died so suddenly that no priest could be summoned, and. of course, with out opportunity to confess, recant and receive the last sacrament of tbe Church. On tbe Cth of November. 1869, his friends sought to bury his remains, and were refused admiseion to Cote des Neiges, the parish ceme tery, as tbe Church authorities would not permit an excommunicated per son to be buried in consecrated ground. His wife, herself a true daughter of tbe Cborcb, besought her Father Confessor to repent, and finally, at the instigation of her late hut-band's friends, applied to a Superior Court for an order to com pel the Church to allow his burial in tbe lot be bad bought, and at tbe time of bis death owned, in tbe cem etery. She obtained tbe order, and from a Roman Catholic Justice, but tbe Church appealed. Tbe widow Guibord soon after died, and was buried in the lot alluded to. Tbe Institut Canadien 'appealed the case to tbe higbest tribunal, the Queen's Privy Council, and on No vember 28, 1874, that body granted an order commanding tbe Cburch authorities to receive tbe body of Joseph Guibord for burial, witb tbe full rites of the Church, in tbe conse crated ground of his own lot, a right of which they declared his remains indubitably possessed under tbcj old r reach law. Un receiving the frivy Council's order last July, tne Superi or Court issued a mandamus com manding ibe Fabrique de Notre Dame, who control the cemetery, to bury tbe body with the usual rites. Tbis- was served August 30th, and on September 2d tbe remains were taken from the tomb where they had rested six years, and borne to Cote des Neiges. The ignorant French Canadian people of tbe parish fleck ed to the cemetery to tbe number of a thousand or more, and violently re s;sied the entrance of tbe funeral cortege, which was attended by about three hundred of the friends of Guibord. M. Doutre,-President of the Institut, and couusel aud leader of the Guibord party, attempted to address the mob, which so infuriated them tbat they aitacked tbe biare with stones, and compelled its driver to seek safety in flight The driver was rcriou'ly injured, and numerous j wounds and bruises were inflicted in the confllict of tbe day. but no lives! were lest. TLe body was returned to the tomb, where it bas since bceu guarded by fln armed force. - Bisbcp Bourget, evidently alarmed at tbe sertbVs --results of bis mtolerant preachings, at once published a letter in which he deprecated the riotous proceedings, and urged his people to refrain from further violence, prom ising an easier and more satisfactory 6o!utionot-the difficulty' by cursing tbe spot of Guibord's interment, thus protecting tbe consecrated cemetery from pollution., -The next Sunday Bishop "Bsurgei's decree ' cursing I Gujjlxrd'a lotwas read in the Cborcb tcf Notre Dame. Since then there bas been a great deal of talk over the affair, and it was anticipated teat any attempt on the part of the friends nf ' fill ilmrrl f. hll TV hi m in the CeOlC- Til-itwy would be violently resisted tbe populace. Nevertheless, his re mains were yesterday laid beside bis wife. Tbe Klupldest Ieopl om Earth. The most demoralized, confused, broken-op, scattered, disintegrated, confounded. lost, dazed, knocked-out- of time people that exist to-day on this planet are that body of citizeus who call themselves "Democrats." Like tbe tribes of Israel, tbey have been wandering fur many years in the wilderness, unable'to . find their way out, and compelled to subsist on extraordinary short rations. Unlike the Israelite wanderers, tbey bavn't got any ; Moses. For fifteen years they Lave been without a bead. For fifteen years tbev Lave been running wildlr bitber and thither, in search of a leader. Every few years some body bas come forward and tender ed bis services as a leader, but only to demonstrate his utter incapacity for the position. McClellan, Sey mour, Pendleton, Thurman, Hen driks, old Bill Allen, and last of all, Sam Tilden, have proved failures in tbe role o Democratic Noses TLe failure of Tilden leaves the headless Democracy worse off than ever be fore. Its physical organism, its nervous system, its mental ana mor its mental ana ;ai: structure (so far as it has any) are all torn ur. Its condition ia one that realizes, the chaos more com pletely than anything else that has lately appeared. Six short months ago. Tilden seemed to be the most promising Mo ses the headless old body bad found since it became an aimless, scattered and disentegrated crowd of wander ers, without a reason to be. His vigorous and probably honest blows against the famous Tammany ring sent Lim np like a rocket to the chair of Governor. His too palpable in triguing for a higher flight sent him down like a stick, and proved that he, like tbe rest, lVnot of tbat stuff of which political Moseses are made. Fof the tournament of 187G Sam Tilden is out of . the field, and the headless old corpse has no one to put forward in bis place who can bring tbem any reasonable hope of success. Chicago Timet, Item. Railway Arrldcat. Augusta, tov. 18. A frightful accident took place last night on the Charlotte, Columbus & Augusta Railroad, near Pine House, about twenty-five miles from Augusta. After the regular passenger train left Columbia yesterday afternoon for Augusta, it was follod by a train of empty cars from Augusta. The two trains rolled on at tbe rate of twenty miles per hour, one following close upon tbe other. Tbe passenger train had just reached the siding, aud was about to stop when tbe second train came rushing along, and and tbe engine telescoped the ladies' passenger car, throwing it and tbe smoking car from tbe track. A ter rible scene followed. The ladies' car was filled with passengers. Men, women and children were jammed together, wounded, crushed and bleeding. After a few moments con fusion the windows and doors were broken open and the passengers - car ried from the wreck. But one life was lost, tbat of Charles Nightingale, of Brunswick, Ga., and who seemed to bave been steamed to death. Tbe son of Mr. Hegesbeimer, United States Coast Surveyor, who was in the smoking car, was seriously in jured. Mr. Desbmao, of Baltimore, commercial traveler, bled a great deal and appeared badly wounded. Governor Chamberlain, of South Carolina, was among tbe passengers. Tbe outward train from Auguta, beiug unable to pas tbe wreck, re turued with the wounded, some of whom, however, proved to have but slight injuries. Krrloa Mate mt Affair on tbe Mexi can Border.

By following up tbe clue thus presented there was no difficulty in tracing the vehicle to a house some three miles distant, an! situated near the main road leading from town. The building was surrounded, and some eight or ten persons therein at the time were captured. A search was then insti tuted, which resulted in the finding of all tbe stolen property. Numer ous robberies have been purpetrated ia Westmoreland county recently, and it is now thought that the gang of desperadoes who were operating in that vicinity have all been captur ed.

A very destructive fire occurred at Irwin's Station, on the Pennsylva nia Railroad, about 22 miles from the city, yesterday morning. TLe fire was first discovered in a billiard saloon in the basement of Jacob Goehring's building, located in the centre of the frame block on Main street, in the southwest portijn of the town. The flames spread with fear ful rapidity, and for a time it was apprehended tbat nearly the entire town would be destroyed, but they were gotten under control after four teen buildings had been destroyed. A telegram was sent to this city for assistance, and Assistant Chief Evans immediately sent two steam ers to the Union Depot, where a special train was shortly ready to take them out. Tbey did not go, however, as in a short time a dis patch was received stating that the fire was under control, and tbe engines would not be needed. Tbe fire con tinued for about two hours, and to stop its progress it was found neces sary to blow np a couple of buildings with powder. Of the fourteen buildings destroy ed, ten were stores. The loss ameunts to fully $50,000, most of which was insured. Pittsburgh a zelte. A tipark In a Kef af Pander. and tbe Re a it. Pottsville, Nov. 18. A terrible accident occurred at tbe Potts col liery, Locust Dale, tbis morning, and was caused by the explosion of a keg of powder. It appeared tbat Alfred Steeley, Mordecai Jones, Robert Payne and John Durkin, and a boy, aged about eighteen, were sitting on a box which contained a keg of pow der, when a spark from one of tbe miner's lamps dropped into tbe pow der, and it ignited and exploded. Every stitch of clothing was torn from the bodies of Durkiu and Payne, except their shoes, and both are a mass of raw flesh. Steeley is terri bly injured in tbe abdomen; his groans and cries are fearful, and he suffers dreadfully from tho terrible pains. Jones is also frightfully burued. The men were removed to their homes and medical aid was summoned at once. An Ontbreak I the Western Peniten tiary. Pittsburgh, Nov. 1C. Five of the prisoners confined in the Western Penitentiary, three cobred and two white, broke out in open mutiny tbis afternoon, and with hatcbets and iron bars attacked Mr Charles Weav er, the contractor under whose super vision tbey were working. Weaver, wbo was unarmed, was driven into a corner and badly beat en, and would, undoubtedly, bave been killed, but for tbe opportune ar rival of the deputy wardens, wbo confronted the prisoners with revol vers aud forced tbem to relinquish their victim. The five convicts were secured and placed in dungeon.--. The trouble occurred in tbe whip factory, in which about ninety con victs are employed. Flrea. LoiisviLL, Ky., Nov. 16. Tbis afternoon a fire was discovered in tbe city hall, aud the flames gaiued such headway that it was thought tbe whole building would be destroy ed, but by tbe energetic efforts of ibe fire department tbe fire was confined to the tower of tbe building. Water bad to be thrown 150 feet high, com pelling two engines to play into the same hose. By means of long ropes the hose were drawn to the top of tbe hall and there used to great ad vantage. It la impossible to esti mate the pamage at present, but the loss will fall below the insurance, which is $45,000. Tha Denver Mnrderera Arretted. Denver, Col., Nov. 17.
