This dis trict for instance, was c msolidated with tle rittshua'U and Allegheny district in lssil. The President is only following Republican precedent. The State Board of Charities in their annual report say that then-are only about fourteen really flood jails in the State. Anion); those that elicit ssvial condemnation is the jail in this coiintv. And still it is permitted to rot and stink, and stink and rot, to the disgrace of the community, and the senthim; condemna tion of the State authorities. Who is to blame for this disgraceful state of affairs, is soinetliinjithat demands an investiga tion. Those Administration oiyans that are mi fn-e with their abuse of tietieral Kair child and other veterans, for their right eous indignation at the President's at tempt to return the emblems of treason to the Siutheru Statesjire simply funiishin proof that the ild -oin-rhead sentiment still exists in the North, as does the sevs sion spirit in the Smth.

IIakvei, chief of a division in the third Auditors otliiv in the Treasury lVpartmcnt at Washington, ha lieen ar rested for a system of forgeries by w hich he robbed the tioverniiient of !.Lint. and was prepared to add many other thous ands to his ill gotten pile. It looks as if the how l raised w hen this Administra tion came into iwcr "Turn the rastuls out w as a blind nnder cover of w hich. ther.iscals w etv turned in. The too-good-fir-anything-Mugwumis, are to lie con gratulated on their kimv in putting honest men into olticial imsitions. That old blatherskite .letf Iavis took occasion on the 4th of July to again air his views in a public rieech. Said he: "Our men fought for a principle and they have not surrendered " and he exhorted southern children to " remeinlicr that their fathers wen- neither rebels nor trai tors." Thus the virus of ivlielliou is in culcated and kept alive, and will be trans mitted to future generations. But if a Northern man lare, even remotely, al lude to the late war, its causes and re sults, the how 1 is at mce raised that he is " waving the bloody shirt " and trying to revive nist and buried issue's. J Err Iavis has apparently fallen into that condition of senility w hich causes its rictims to imagine a vain thing, and babble about it, as though it were a sol emn and undouiit.il truth. In an au thorised memoir of his life, which is now being prepared for the pre, lie assert that the Federal Government conspired during the war to have him assassinated, And that the tiovernorof Pennsylvania (Andrew Otrtinl released two noted des jerado's fnrai the icnitentiary, ujton con dition that they would go to Montgom ery and assassinate him. with the prom ise of a reward of (100.000 if they suc weded. Siting aside all oiher reasons, the well-known chivalric character of inivernor Curtiu, will stamp the lie njion this charge wherever it is published or re Jieated. The old traitor has evidently fallen into his dotage, and this miserable CilsehtKsi, the coinage of .a diseased mind, can be attributed only in his mental con dition. The Moruimisof Utah have inaugu.at eil protwdingw looking to the admission of that Territrwy a a State of tue Union, and they have incorporated in tlieir pro posed Constitution a clause abolishing and prohibiting polygamy. It is more than hinted that thin is a mere blind. w hereby the Territory is to be broudit into tl? nuion if stab, and that when once admitted, under the nwivtinil rijrbt to alter and amend it State consti tution, or to ejiforre by subsequent Iaw m much of it at- united her Mormon ma jority, polygamy can le continued or w inked at.

A polyiranioud Stute in the Union is no more s-ibility than a new slave State, and we opine that the icop!eof Utah w ill have to give other pnsif than mere d'laratiour that, they have purged them selves of polygamy U-foro Congn-m w ill vote tj give theiu a plaoe in the sister hood of StaUs. By their works shall ye know them. Mr. Ci.evelami has decided not to visit St. Lrmi during the tirand Army en campment and he devoted the 4th of Ju ly to writing a Ion? letter assigning rea sons for his lock out. As a writer of let ters the President is not a success. He lacks tact and judgment, and permit his churlish humor to run aw ay with bis dis cretion. He was not invited by the Grand Army, but by a committee of citi zens to lie present on the oei-asion, and w hile it is probably true that his presence might have been distasteful to a large partion of the veterans, he is entirely right when he says he "refuses to be lieve " that the old soldiers desire or in tend to coerce or intimidate him. They are patriots and gentlemen as well as sol (iiers, and would have shown all due re-spei-t to the otlicial head of the govern ment they helped to save, though they may not admire the individual occupying that exalted position. The intimation that he feared jiersonal violence is puer ile of itself, and growsly insulting to the brave men whose manhood it impugns. Mr. Cleveland is not of, nor w ith the (irand Anny men in sentiment, and in truth has little, if anything in common w ith them. His sharp and unmlled for remarks, in his nnwages vetoing private, pension bills, his promised surrenderor the relicl battle-flags, his sending Mem orial day in fishing, his indifferent to, and unconcealed disdain of much that lies near their hearts, has placed a bar rier between them, but they have never shown the slightest disn-spect to "the siple highest oliicc the dignity of which I must protect." No one can honestly, for one moment, lx-lieve that, partisan ship is so rancomus in this non-partisan organization, that the President of the United States, w hoever he may Is-, is in danger of being treated w ith personal lisresicct. Imagine Andrew .luekson, whose mantle the IVmocrats fondly im agine has fallen ui Mr. Cleveland's shoulders putting in the childish dis claimer of fear to mingle among the sol diersof the Union!! Tut! tut! Mr. Cleve land you only prove that you were "hurt" by criticism of your actions. "'Tin the wounded bird that flutters." One of the oldest and most familiar catch cries of the iH-mocratic party is its claim to lie the workmans friend, anil the workingman's parly, and so jicrsisteiitiy has the assertion 1-een made that, many unretleeting persons have awepted it as tnith. The arty alsf claims to Ik- co extensive w ith the Union, and of course its doctrines and practices should Is-, and are held to lie the same, w herever it has an existanee. Keeping these declara tions ami this line of argument in mind, we invite attention to the record of re cent ev.-nts that come up to us through lcmoeratic Journals, in Greenville coun ty, South Carolina. First came news of na anticipated uprising among the negro laborers, for the pw-iose of inurdcringthe w hite males, and . taking the w hite fe- males as w ives, or worse ; this was fol lowed by the announcement that the w hite " night riders '' or " kuklux " were abroad terrorizing and regulating the col ored folks, and finally we have the dec laration that a few colored men had form ed a labor league, and w ere guilty of con spiring for a rise in the price of lalsir, and even contemplated a demand, at some fu ture time of f a day for labor. An " in formal court," comprised of white IVmo craU mounted and armed, was at once convened, and these workmans friends sent for and examined the memliers if the league, and compelled them to dis- I close the object and rub's of their organi j x-ation. and finding its puqsme to Is as i a! Hive stated, the aforesaid "informal ! court" magnanimously and mercifully I refraining from the use of their shot guns, j minted out to them the folly of the ; w hole business, and notified them that j the w hite people would not allow any ! such organizations to exist. They were then sent home and departs! well pleas I ed to be out of the trouble." It is stated I also that the Sjherilfof the county and n ' trial Justice were present at tlu-se law less proceedings. The same thing was rejieated at other plaivs. Not a murmur has Is-en rai'd by the white lX-iuocruts the workingman's friends anywhere in the Ninth, nor has even a protest lieen made 1 y any 1 eiiiocrat ic jiajn-r. Suppose any such outrage had Uvn pcrjic. rated on the members of a w orkingman's league in the North? What a howl of indigna tion the IViuocratic jsijs rs would have sent forth ! And why not in this cu--V Are workmen's right to imbine for in creased wages measured by the color of tlieir skin? The reason is patent and easy to Ik- discerned. The Ieuiocratic iiarty is the workman's friend, where he has a vote lie can w ield in his ow n inter ests. In the South the colored workman's vote is not needed, or if it is, can be regu lated by the shot gun in the hands of an "informal court." The solicitude of' the IeunxTotic party for the workman's rights is Is mmlcd and controlled by the political uses they can lie put to This ami nothing more. .

Mr I.'eabSie: When I received the ex tremely cordial and gratifying invitation from the citizens of St. Louis, tendered by a number of her niresentative men, to visit that city during the National Encampment of the iJnuid Army of the Republic, 1 had been contemplating foratime the acceptance of the invitation from that organization to tlie same effi-ct, and had considered the plraiure w hich it would afford me if it should be possible to meet not only mem bers of the Grand Army, but the people of St. Louis and other cities of tlie West which the occasion would give me an opportunity to visit. The exactions if my public duties I felt to lie so uncertain, however, that when lirst confronted by the delegation of which you were at the head I expected to do no more at that lime than to promise the con sideration of the double invitation tendered nie. and express the pleasure it would give me to accept the same thereafter if possible. But the cordiality and sincerity of your presentation reinfonvd by the heartiness of the people who surround you, so impressed me that I could not resist the feeling which prompted me to assure you on the sjiot that I would lie w ith you and the Grand Army of the RcHib!ic at the time designated if nothing happened in the meantime to aliso lutely vv-nt my leaving Washington. Immediately ujion the public announce ment of this conclusion, expressions emana ting from certain iniKrtaut members of the Grand Army of tlie Republic, and increasing in volume and virulence, constrained me to review my aiieptanoe of these invitations. The expressions referred to go to theextent of declaring that I would Is- an unwelcome giiet at the time and ph-e of the National Kiicampnient. This .statement is bases, as well as I can judge. Um certain ifticial acts of mine nvolviug iiiiiriaiit Kiblic interests, done timlcr the restraints and obligations of my oath of oni-. which do not seem to ap icr to accord with the wishes of some of the memliers of the Grand Anny of the Re public. I retuie to t ln vc thai this organization, founded iiin atriolic ideas, vomiosed very largely of nun e-Ulliil to lasting honor and cotiiidi ration. and whose crowning glory it should Ik- that they are American citizens as well a veteran soldiers, deems it a part of its miiM'in tocomias an object or purpose by Irv ing to intimidate the Kxeciitive or ineree those chargtsl with making and exe cuting the hiws. And yet the expressions to w hich I hate referred indicate such a prevalent- of unfriendly 6-eling and -such a menaiv Uian iKYsisinn which should be har motiioiiv jsueefui and cordial, that they can noi Is- ignioil. I )s'g you to uu-ler-taiiil that I am not oiiiM-ious of any act of mine which should make me fear to meet (he Grand Army of the Republic or any other assemblage of my fellow citizens. The account of my official stewardship is always ready for presentation to my countrymen. I should not be frank if I failed to confess, while diclaiming all rvciitinent. that I have lieen hurt by the un worthy and wanton attacKs upon me grow ing out of this mutter and ihe reckless way in w hich my motives ami actions have been mbrcpnveiitcd Isilh publicly and privately, for which, however, the Grand Army of the Republic, as a Ixsly, is by no means resuui- sillle. The threat of is-rsonal violence and harm in case I utnlcrtakc- the trip in (uestiou, which siimn of misguided, and unbalan ced men. under the stimulation of excited fit'Iiug, have made, are not even considered. Rather than abandon my visit to the West and disapiint your citizens I might if I alone were eonceniiil. siiliinit to the insult to which, it is iptite ojienly asserted, I would lie helplessly subjected if present at the encampment ; but I should bear with mi there the iieople's highest ollice, the dignity of which I must protect, and I is-lieve that neither the Grand Anny of the Republic as au organization nor anything like a majoriy of its nienils-rs would ever emuurage any such a scandalous attack iisui it. If. howev er,amoiig Iho memU'ishipof this Issly there are some, as t-erlaitily sit-ins to lie the ease, determined to denounce me and my official ads at the National Kncanipmcnt 1 believe they should Is- icrmittcd todo so unrestrain ed by my pn-sence as a guest of their organ ization or as a guest of the hospitable city in which their meeting is held. A numls-Tof Gniinl Army jstst have sign i tied their inten tion. I am inlonnisl, to remain away from tiie encampment in cac 1 visit the city at that time. Without considering the "merit of siirb an exi'U-s- I fivl that I should not be the cause of sie h non-attendence. The time aii'li'l.iir fortheeni-anipnient werefixtsl long ls-lore my invitation were nsvived. TIiosa' iln-inms to partii-i;ile in its proceedings shoiiid U- first regarded, and nothini; should Is- permitted to interfere with their inten tions. Another consideration of more imiairtance than all others remains to be noticed. Tin fact was relcrred to by you when you ver bally present! t the invitation or the citizens of St. bonis that the coining encampment of tin- Grand Army of the Republic would be the first to Is- held ill a Suit hern' stale. I siippise this fact was mentioned as a pleas ing incident of the fraternal f-cling fast gaining ground throughout the entire land, and liaihsl by every sitriotic citizen as an earnest that the I'uioii has really and ill fact ls-eti saved ill sentiment and spirit, with all the Is'iietits it Vouchsafes to a united sople. I cannot rid myself of the belief that the least discord on this propitious occasion might retard the progress of the sentiment of common hrolhcrhtNid which the Grand Army of the Republic has a good opjsirtu nity to increase and foster. I certainly ought not to lie the cause of such discord in any event or umn any pretext. It seems to nu that you and the citizens of Ml. Louis are en tilled to this unreserved statement of the conditions which have constrained me to forego my contemplated visit and to with draw my ai-oeptanee of your invitation. My presence in your city at the time you have indicated tsin Ita but of little moment 4iui)ianil with the iiiisirtance of a cordial and harmonious entertainment of your oth er guests. I assure you that I abandon my plan w ithout the least JsTsonal felling or re gret, constrained thereto by a sense of duty, actuated by a desire to save any embarras ment totheicople of St. Ixuis or tlieir ex pected guests and with a heart full of grateful appreciation of the sincere and unaffected kindness of your citizens. Hoping t he encampment may be an occa sion of gr.-.il usetiilncsa. mid that its proceed ings may illustrate the highest patriotism of American citizenship, I am yours very sin cerely, Gbovke Cleveland. Pes Mi.i.nks. In., July tnn. Tunic, Commander of thcG. A. R. of Iowa, who has been absent from the city several days, returned thi evening and was asked what he thought of Cleveland's refusal to visit the St. liuis Lncampment. He said : "Cleveland's hack-down is so complete that wedou't foul like exulting, but it was the wisest and best thing he could do. I see he attemjits to get sympathy by insinu ating that threats of violence had been nia.le against him. I ran say that no threats of violence were ever made or ever dnwined of The old soldiers do not mean tot brow bricks in order to show their contempt. I liave liad letter by thebushel from all parts of the t'nited States, and I believe that i per cent, of all the old soldiers were opfioeed to luring him review them at tlieir Knoainp nient. As to the suggestion from St. Louis that the citizchu will treat the Grand Army with incivility. I can say that the old sol dicrsask mi livors of St. Lituisaud do not go there for that purs?. They are not a set of fiolitician and they will find all the en tertainment tliey want in n-newing and strengthening tlie tics of fraternal tions." A Terrific Eaploelon. Aelikutos. N. J..'Joly 7. An explosion occurred in tlie Celonite Maniifacturiiig Works at llu'clock. A Swede named August and Mi Ariauia Much more were instantly killed aiid about twenty others seriously in jured, none fatally. The works, three brick building, were totally destroyed. The loss iVi,ii. A number of stores and houses were damaged and people were thrown dow u in houses Itwin the Itiree of the explosion. About fifty people were employed in the works, men, women and children, many of them Swedes, or natives of some foreign coun try. As soon as the explosion occurred the employes scattered in ail directions. Reilly and Susie Whit Held, both young girls, were badly cut about the face and hands. George Vinberghl. 14 years of age, was cut alioiit the face and liad two migers blown off. Will liura C'urr and an unknown were also badly cut. A man named Fay, living at Newark, was badly hurt. He was sent to St. Mich ael's Hospital in that city, where he lies in a critical condition. In the village the explosion caused a panic. Hardly a house or store for a qu arter of a mile has a whole window left. The station of the Greenwood Lake Railroad, which stands across the track 150 feet from the Celonite works, was badly wnsked. The machine slsip of Mr. Kastcmft had every pane of glass blown in and otherwise dam aged. On the south side of the railroad track is a three-story brick building occupied by licckwith i)c McDonnell as a machine shop. The widows were demolished and briPk were hurled . in among valuable patterns, while the cornice of the building was torn off. The force of the explosion was so great that several persons were knocked down in the street and at their houses. Chinamen Murdered. PoirrLAMi. July 7. Recent reports from Idaho Territory are to the effect that a num ber of Chinese mining camps scattered along l he Snake river have iieeii raided. It is re lirted that there are from fifty to sixty Chi li -se miners on the Oregon side of the Snake river, about forty mile aluve l-wistou, and from the many mutik ted r-maius that have floali-d down the river U is expected either Indians or whites have raiilcd tin- camp and murdered most if not ail the Celestials. Every few days Isslies have lieen discovered lodged in the stream and in most cases the remains were fonnd to have bt-eii stablied or shot. The general impression is the mur ders were committed by whites, who kill the Chinese and rob them of their polddust. The Chinese residents of Ix-wiston, Idaho Territory, are greatly excited over the reports and the discovery of the murdered bislies of their countrymen. They have sent up sever al scouts to make an investigation of the matter. They also are said to lie in corres-piinliiii-e with thp Chinese Minister at Washington n-garding the outrages. Some of the Idaho jiHis-nt are calling loudly on Governor Pennoyer. of On-gon, to make an effort to discover the perjietrators of these murders by offering rewanls. Among the Chinese the impression prevails that there is an organized band of anti-Mongolian vigi lantes raiding the placer mining region. WashihutoN, July 7. Neither the Chinese Legation nor the Department of State has re ceived any information concerning the re ported murder of Chinese miners in Malm Territory. A Plague of Locusts. Perham. July 9. The country is alive with locusts. Trees, walls and buildings are covered with the creatures. They are crash ed iimicr fisit on the sidewalks and in the streets. High in the air every dear tlay, w hen the wind is strong, millions of them e.tu lie svu going as the wind carries them. Cox at Perham are a dead loss. Ten thou sand acres can already beconnted as destroy ed. Vegetation in places is devoured to the i r.sit. Klsewhcre the leaf is stripintl oil" ami the kernel Imri-d, leaving the bare stalk and busk withering in the sun. Everything is eaten except wild grass and foliage. In some places currant bushes and young trees are stripMl of bark and foliage Numerous as these insects are, this is evi dently only the beginning of their ravages. Their increase is something beyond compu tation. It is said that after hatching in the spring they keep together iu swarms and at that time may he caught oil tarred sheets and cremated. Sime very gbsimy rejsirts arecomingfmm Southern Minnesota about damage to cmps of all kinds by drought and chinch hugs. The wheat crop is badly injured in sjHit, and while the general crop of the State will be fully up to the average, individual loss in Mower, Filmore, Rice and Renville counties will be heavy. Chinch bugs are destroying the com in most places and that crop will be shortened consiik-rably. In the central and northern pinions of the State the crops are all right. Cmps in Dakota Territory are doing well everywhere. Child-Mutllators Punished. CwcAiao, July K. Mine De Benkalear and Dr. Hirt were each fined and sentenced to thirty days in the county jail by Judge Tuthill to-day for destroying the birthmark i on the jierson of Isihy Andrews, concerning the possession of Whom a struggle has been in progress in the courts for several days. Contempt of court was the offense for which this punishment was administered. It con sisted in tampering with evidence, and the evidence was the birthmark, by means of which the child was identified. Mine. De Benkalear acknowledged having ordered the tlesli cut away from the child, and Dr. liirt admitted having performed the opera tion. Judge Tuthill, with extreme severity, declared that no excuses for any statement that he had heard could not excuse the bar barity which caused the mutilation of the child, and therefore iassed sentemv iihiii the culprits. An apieal was taken. Egtfed Out of Town. New Philadelphia, July IS. Dr. Charhsi Bntilcy and partner met with tough treat ment at I'hrichsville, this county, the other day. They are the agents for the " Austral ian King of Paiu," and sold tlieir medicine from a covered wagon. The dis-tor and his partner in some way incurred the ill-will of some of the I'hrichsville people. They took the doctor to a neighboring drug store, cut his long lock on one side, only clipping one-half of his flowing mus tache, and then let him go. They then took his young high-hatted partner to Stillw ater creek, where they ducked him completely. The jwir were then placed in their carriage and egged out of town. The doctor claims that the attack was unjust and has employed the best legal talent here to prosecute Un guilty parties. Bled to Death. Allektowii, July . A horrible accident happened yesterday afternoon near Lanark, a small place live miles south of this city. Mm. Mary liaumganlner, 5 years of age, with her son, aged 15, were driving in a bug gy to a wheat field, having with them a grain cradle. While going up a hill the harness broke aud the horse backing down the side of the mad, both were thrown out and frll on the sharp knife of the cradle.

Ill thi morning's despatch j which gave indications of the destruction of the business part of the oil town of Clarendon, tlie story was not bnt half told. The fire burned itself out this morning, spreading far mil inlo tiie outside limits. The fire broke out siiiiultaiKously in the Weave Hotel and in Brown Bros.' planing mill. The meagre water supply gave out and the people be- I came horrified as tbey realized their helpless ness. Apeals for help were immediately sent out hi Warren and surrounding eomi try. When the Warren Fire Department resinded it was discovered that the hose was Mot brought along. Wlien valuable time was lost and the department was in working onler tlie flames had encroached upon the pumping station and the water works were burned. A stream which ran near the dcjK.it was sought, but it gave but a meager supply The atmosphere became so charged with heat that a number of oil tanks in the upper part of the town exploded and rivuletsof fire ran throngh the streets and wound their serpentine course under the buildings iu all directions. Men whose cheeks were blanch ed with terror ran hither and thither for their families and children. High above the rearing of the flames were heard the cries of those looking Sir loved ones. Fortunately all had instinctively sought the hillside and but one s-rson burned. He was a man em ployed at Mann & Co.'s feed store and was burned to death in the barn. The telegraph and telephone offices were burned in the early stages of the conflagra tion. This left the x-opte without means of communicating with the outside world. Several trains coming east which were made up of oil-cars were stopped ' beyond the town. Twelve hundred ieople on the Jiillsides and in vacant lots were in a most pitiable condition this morning. They hail neither money nor fissj. and many of them but lit tle clothing. The g-ssl Samaritans of War ren loaded a train on tiie lYiiusylvatiia and Krie with provisions and sent it to Clarendon at an ta!y hour. All day the out going trains from Clarendon were densely crowded with the sufferers who were going out to the place of refuge or to seek the hospitality if relatives and friends, many of them having lost all they had ill the world. - The buildings ik-stmyed were alsiut 3IJO in number. There was not a great deal of in surance iu the town. The rates were all the way from " to 10 per cent and would not amount to over $7o.mm. The loss is estima ted in all at from Xi.n"! to $."inn.uou. This includes household goods, store goods and buildings. There were in all over 3no build ings, including reshU-necs. There is a gen eral Is-lief that the fire was the work of in ivndiaries for the purjsise of robliery , A HirTKL PKOPKIKTOK A1TTSEII. It is now well established that the lire was of incendiary origin. Public rumor at Clar endon says that two weeks ago, when liipior licenses were refused to all applicants in Warren County, Mahoney, proprietor of the Weaver House, threatened to tire the town if t he decision of the court was not reversed iu two weeks. This morning, after the fire burned out. the citizens looked about for Mahoney for one of the fin-s started in his nsun in the hotel but he was not to be found. A warrant charging him with arson was sworn out and searching parties scoured the surrounding country to apprehend him. He was found hiding in the woods, six miles from Clareudou, and because lynching was feared he was taken to Warren jail. A charred skeleton was found in one of the rooms of the hotel, and it is supposed to he that of a hack-driver named Sullivan, who is missing. He was seen about the hotel early in the evening. Hakkisbi ni, July (j. Governor Beaver to day received a telegram from James A. Parmlee, of Warren, staling that 200 families are homeless from the fire at Clarendon and are without shelter and asking that liNt tents Is; loaned them. The tiovernor promptly orilen-d the tents lo he sent. Kkik, July 7.The remaining srtion of the tow ti of Clarendon, in Warren, county, which was visted by a conflagration on Tues day morning w hich almost entirely swept it out of existence, was again the sceiice of destructive flames to-day. After the relief firemen from the surrounding town had re turned, supjKising their work to be done, lire was discovered in the woods to the south of the town. No apprehension was felt, as it was thought the direction of the wind would naturally keep it away. This afternoon, however, it changed, and blew strongly di rectly from the tire to the town. Iu a short time the oil well, derricks, tanks and houses of Patrick Connor were tin fire. The gas and oil from it sioutiug high into the air pn-scntcd a magnificent picture. The resi dents left their much hoard shelters ami bent every effort toward fighting the flames. Having no adequate tire aparatas their efforts were of little avail, and the wells, tanks and buildings owned by Realty Bros, of Warren, were sism in Haines, and the fire had even taken a hold usiti some of the rough shelter sheds. Apieals for aid were telegraphed to Warren, as on the night lie fore, ahd at 4 o'clock a lire comwnv was sent to the sevno. Before they arrived live wells, taiiksand over thirteen houses In-longing to (he Anchor Oil Coniiaiiy had been fired and the oil was literally flowing a burn ing rivi-rdown the hillside and just the edge ol the burned town, consuming some of the tents and siasls. The firemen by sitierhu inan efforts turned the course of the strnims of liquid fire, conquered the flames and finally left tor their homes at 9 o'clock to night. The lire is still burning in the wismLs but a large font- of watchers is present to tight it at every lsiiiit. A correct statement of the houses burned Imsed usm actual count retvived I'Miight, plai-es the number at Jsl. The loss is $JIkJ, ooo. and the insurance falls short of Jloo, mio. There are now but seven hoa-s-s left in the tow n. Not one place of business is left. All is a black, smouldering ruin. James Mahoney, the imvndiary, was taken from the jail this morning and given $ hearing. He was bound over to appear at court to answ er to the charge of arson, but was after wanis reh-asc under heavy bail and is now at large. The tents sent by Governeor Bea ver to the sufferers have arrived aud pro visions and clothing are being collected in the surrounding towns ill large quantities. W. (.'.

Lainler Post of the Grand Anny, which ha lieen at Get tysburg and in the South Sir eight days, re turned home yesterday. The organization was hospitably entertained by tlie R. K. Lee Camp of Confederate Veterans, of Richmond, being iu tliat city from Monday night until Wednesday morning. One feature of the trip has attracted National interest and is I ic ing much disciisscd i-qMS-tailY in New Ku gland. The Lynn Grand Army nieiii!s.-rs mingled with the Pickett nu-n at Gettys burg and saw or heard no repulsive talk con cerning the late unpleasantness until they reached Richmond. On Tuesday evening a banquet on a larc sile was held at Sanger Hall in that city. PnJlly 4 iple at tended, including nearly all the representa tive men of Richmond, save tiie Governor, who was in New York city, and the Mayor of the city, who was confined to his holm- by illness. The speeches were all of a satisfac tory tenor until II. V. Flouniay, Secretary of the Commonwealth of Virginia, was cull ed upo'i. His remarks concerning the war and its results were so objectionable to many that they left the ball. He defended the Confederate action in tire straggle in suuli a manner as to make him-elf repulsive to the Northern visitors. He wanted the American flag " amended "' to the extent of placing the rebel stars aud bars iu a prominent position thereon. It was the most unreconstructed speech imaginable, and the excuse offered by the few members of R. E. I-ee Camp object ing to theexpressed sentiment was that ."the man must be inflamed with wine." The ed itor of the Richmond Tiiiua, who followed, made a more radiiHil speech regarding the changing of the flag than did the Secretary of State, claiming that complete unity and gtssl feeling would never result until the old rebel flag became a portion of the Stars and Sti-qics. The latter sjieaker n-ad his siech from manuscript, so that it could not he said his was a hasty remark brought on by an indulgence in liquids. He dwelt upon the "new flag" business at much length, and thought it only fair that such amendments as we suggested should lie immediately made. The more conservative members of R. E. Lee Camp hcrame much incensed at such talk from their prominent and repre sentative memls-rs, hut no one of the sj-ak-ersfrom Richmond who followed endeavored to correct the remarks. Col. Allen O. Shep herd, of Lynn,a member of Gov. Ames' staff being called iijNin, opposed stmngly any such change of the National colors us was promised. The Lynn members looked at the Richmond papers the next morning, and found that all references to the flags lieing changed had been cut out of the speeches. The occasion as liberally eo vitrei! for sev eral New England pais-rs by corresmndcnts employed on Southern pajs-rs, but the Hag business was not referred to.?

Much of tiio city facts ujhiii the lake, and to make the buildings more secure new quays were built along the front, (in Tueslay night, while the inhab itants were aslircp and .without a sound of warning half ol the new quays slid into tin water, followed by forty houses. Ill addi tion to these a crow lid inn and the Hotel Zurich, a four-story structure, filli-d with visitors from various' mrts of the country, vanished entirely. So fur as can he learned one hundred lives were lost, though it is ini jHissihle to tell at the present time ihe exaet number of casualties. The tsiuse of the disaster is not known, as the quays were supposed to have been built in the strongest and most workmanlike manner. It is liclicvcd, however, the wash ing of the water undermined the masonry . The scene of the accident at the time was apialling. Hundreds of Hop!e were strug gling ill the wati r and their cries w ere heart rending.

A natural gas balloon asi-enskui nnder the management of Pnitessor Carl Meyer, of Mohawk. .V. Y., was advertised as one of the leiiding features f the Fourth of July celebration. But owing to a failure to inflate the balloon, the ascen sion was postponed until yesterday. The air ship was thirty-two feet in diameter and about sixty fivt high, and weighed, when lil lis 1, ime hundred und sixty pounds. It is said to have lieen the lightest la!lim of its mwcity in the world. Previous to this time four successful ascents luive been maile with it. It was worth aliout 4nu. A XARKOW ESCAPE. A few moments after 4 o'clock, amid the almost breathless excitement of the multi tude, the lull loon was started. Clarage, the gymnast taking hold securely of the trapeze bar, there being no basket, gave the won! to his assistants to let go the guys. The air ship gave a buoyant upward movement, but it was evidently too heavily weighted for the conditions of the atmosphere. A strong breeze was blowiwg from the south, taking it in the direction of a line of telegraph wires running along State street. The balloon struck the wires. By a quick and agile movement, displaying wonderful athletic powers and remarkable presence of mind, the leronaut turned a somersault over the wires and and the first obstacle was cleared without serious harm. It was a most thril ling exhibition. another ousTiircrio:. Thus freed from the entanglement the bal loon sailed toward the Park school house. j where Clarage struck forcibly against the j iron cresting. A piece of the wrought iron entered his side, near the hip, producing an j ugly and serious wound, w hich, however. , would proliably not have proven fatal. I'ass j ing over the school house, the plucky and daring a-nmaut still clung to the traieze the ; hi Ih sin made a downward movement, com j ing within fifteen or twenty feet of the ground. Clarage was then carried with tcr ; rlfic force against the niof of a neighls-ring barn, tearing off the shingles as he was drag- ' geil by. eaketied bv the hurt received at the school house he evidently lost control of! the bal loon and struck his head against the bar.

A great rmwd of horritiisl sss tators of this series of catastrophes rushisi to the as sisiauiv of the wounded man, and he was borne tenderly to a neighUiring drugstore, where a physicians examination revi-alcil that the venturesome a;ronaut was suriVring from congestion of the bruin and evident in ternal injuries, while his body was covered with bruises. From the moment he struck the earth with such appilling force he d not again regain consciuusness. His vt 11. il injuries, though serious, were lioTconsid cred fatal. He was then taken to Frank's Hotel, on State street, w hen- he died shortly after nisiti to-day. Charged With Pension Frauds.
