Fire,
. . ....,..
-. :.. -A datruotive fire occurred on Thursday
- nightabout ten o'clock, resulting in the
lbss of four fine horses, the stables in which
they were in at the time,_ alarge lot of har
ness, oats, corn, hay, &c.
The stables were in the rear of the Red
Z.ion Hotel, and were owned, by Mr. T. L.
Shields of Sewickley, and occupied by
- --Mr.' Shallenberger, Mr. Gordon of the
Red Lion Hotel, and Messrs. Lightcap &
Stewart, stage owners.
The buildings were erected in the shape
of three sides of &hollow square, leaving
the intermediate space to be occupied as a
yard. The fire originated in that portion
occupied by Mr. Shallaberger, who Post
tour -fine horses valued at $6OO, together
with a quantity of feed, harness, &c.
Messrs. Lightcap & Stewart lost nothing
hut their harness and feed, valued at about
$l5O. The wagon sheds and ice houses
adieining the hotel were Alestroyed, but
the ice was saved. Mr. Gordon's losi is
about $5OO. Mr. Shields loss is about
$1,500. There is no doubt but that the
fire was the work of an incendiary.
Daring the fire the firemen were very
much annoyed, and their labors retarded
by the bursting of hose, clearly demon
strating the necessity for a new supply
for which they have made application.
We hope soon to see this evil remedied,
and each company supplied with a - suffi
cient quantity of good servicable hose.
tom it[argantoun---The Rebels
Advancing.
We learn that on the evening of Wednes
day a messenger arived at Waynesburg from
Greensboro - bringin g the intelligence that
Col. Mulligan had met with a disastrous
defeat at Fairmount last Tuesday. He
had attacked a Brunk force of the enemy
' Under command of a rebel named Jones
and was fast getting the better of him,
when Jones was reinforced with two cel
l:mina of troops, one . under Imboden,,
coming Hermanhe Esville pike, and anoth
er underwho advanced by way
of Indian Creek, thereby nearly surround
ing Milligan's•small force.] After fighing
for five hours he was compelled to retreat,
being opposed by nearly twenty thousand
men. The rebels continued their march
upon Morgantown, and no doubt but that
ere this, they have occupied the place.
A dispatch was yesterday received in
this city from Gov. Curtin, the purport of
which was that he could do no good here,
that he felt assured that the government
was aware ofthe extent of the lnvo '
and that troops had already been sent
for
ward; that he had no authority to call out
the.militia except by a general proclama
tion, and that if the exigency here is press
ing, thepeople could form companies in,
accordance with the militia laws,&c.
The main body of the rebels are under
the command of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee,
whose object, without doubt, is to obtain a
supply of horses. How far, and in what,
direction he' will advance is a mere con
jecture, but as the country is thoroughly
aroused, his movements will without doubt
be arrested. We do not believe that there
can bs found in this community a man so
lost to ail feelings of manhood and pa
triotism, who would not at a moments no ,
lice shoulder a musket to assist in repel'
ing the invaders.
Gs.
We yesterday walked un
through the ex•
tensive cannon manufactory of Messrs.
Knapp, Rudd it Co., and while there had
the curiosity to count the guns. We
found lying in the yard, in the turning
lathes, being bored, and undergoing di[
ferent kinds of manipulation, seventy:
three guns of a calibre ranging from a 1l
pound rifled cannon to al5 inch gun. We
also counted 1.5 mortars. In one portion
of the yard lay orer one hundred tons of
shell and solid shot. We also learned
that twelve or fourteen guns were con
stantly at the testing ground at Wall sta-
Ther
tion, where their strength is being tested.
e are also a large number of cannon
in the Nasks, having just been cast. These
works are daily sending off guns to differ
ent points.
Fast Day,
Thursday, the the day set apart by Presi
dent Lincoln, as a day of humiliation and
prayer was very generally observed
throughout the city. The places of busi
ness were all closed and the churches
were well attended, solemn service being
performed in all of Ahem. Onq church,
ho - WeVer, opened the exercises with a
thanksgiving anthem, which was not alto
gether apropos in our opinion.
Vicious Horse.
About two weeks. ago, Jackson Stahl,
living at East Liberty, Payette county,
was kicked by a vicious horse, the foot
striking him fall in the facei fracturing
both cheek bones mashing his nose, and
breaking both the upper and lower jaw
bones, and knocking out all 'his front
teeth. The boyhas nearly recovered, and
his face (with the exception of the miss
ing teeth,) bears scarcely a mark of the
terrptikipjary.
Allegheny Mayor's Office.
Michael Kohn and Wm. Stewartliere
yesterday up before Mayor Alexander on
a chargk of drunkenness and were fined
one dollar each and costs. Jno. Williams
was also up on the same charge and was
let off-upon the payment of costs. Mary
Munroe was sent up for ten days on a
charge of vagrancy. Hannah Johnson
was committed for trial on charge of keep.
ing a disorderly house.
Metal-Tipped Shoes.
Shoes are an important item in the ex
pense of clothing children, as every pa
rent will understand. They invariably
wear out their shoes at the toe first, and
not unfrequentry before the other parts
are a quarter worn. Children's shoes with
Metal tips never wear out at the toe, and
it is safe' tat say that on an average one
pair with, them will more than out-wear
three. airs without them. We believe all
shoe dealers keep 'them:
• Trade Closed.
On account. of low W.ater in the Alle•
ghnny river; the'Allegheny Belle has been
withdrawn from, the trade and pat in the
Wheeling' and Parkerehurg trade. The
Leclaire also failed to reach Oil Creek,•
and his returned, and will lay ap until'
there is more water.
Destructive Pond Freshet.
On _Wedoesdaya pond fresh took place

the losi . to be - from p,OOO to 6,000 barrels.

McCollister tit Hoer.
We direct the attention of our readers
to the card 'or , this firm in another col
umn. They manufacture and deal in all
kinds of-tobacco, snuff and cigars and
are at all time fully prepared with a large
stock .to meet the wants of the public at
the very lowest cash prices. They will
continue for a short time to occupy the
old stand on Fifth et., but in order to
meet the increasing demands of their
business have rented and fitted up tLe
spacious store room No. 108 Wood et.,
where one of the firm, Mr. Chas. C. Baer
may always be found. We commend the
house to those who use the Weed, and to
those who buy to sell again. The latter
class particularly will find it to their ad•
vantage to call and examine their stock
and prices before purchasing elsewhere.

Dr. Randall still continues to operate
upon corns and bunions with the same
success that at all times attends his prac.

following are the names of a few of the

A disgraceful fight took place. n Thum

Boy Killed on a Railroad.
On Thursday evening about twenty min.
utes before eight, as the Express train on
the Cleveland & Pittsburgh road was cord
ing up, a boy standing on the track was
struck on the left side of the neck, thrown
entirely clear of the rails and instantly
killed. The body was brought to the - city,
and taken to the coffin warerooms of Mr.
Devore, where they will_ remain until
thin afternoon in order that he may be
identified. He is supposed to be about
14 years of age, and from his dress it is
supposed that he was engaged in farming.
The accident occurred a short distance this
side of Sewickley.

Emma Waller.
This most artistic of the Tragediennes
of the modern stage will close her engage
ment at the Theatre this evening. She
takes her leave of her dramatic admirers
in her celebrated personation of Lucretia
Borgia. The interest of this play is of the
deepest sensational character, being "a
picture in little" of the crimes of Pere
Borgia, of his eons Cemsrir and John and
of his, daughter Lucretia—the heroine of
the piece, "who passes the rosy" poisoned,
kills cavaliers in platoons thereby, and
finally dies by the dagger of her own son.
The entertainments will conclude with the
great local drama of The Fireman's
Bride. In bidding farewell to Mrs. \Val

Persons who are familiar with the' -
: 1
yr.
gion between Acquia creek And FalmoUth,
sate that all forests between two points
are leveled and everything like ornamental
trees and fences is destroyed. From the
highest elevation nothing is seen but bare
and sacrificed surfaces. Much of such a
destruction of forests must exist on the
South siCe of the Rsprahat neck. Like
reports eubstantially are made from all
parts of the country where armies hav e
been, and the fact suggests the distress
that must have come to the tens of thous
of households by the present civil war.—
Not is the end yet.
It is understood that there is a difference
of opinion between the Judges of the Su
preme Court as to the rendition of fugitive
strives under the law on the subject. Ap
plications thus far have only been made
to Judges l'isle,r and Wiley, who have com
plied with the provisions of law. A re
port prevails that the practice of redition
H suspended.
It is stated at the Navy Department as
I lie reason why the President did not sign
the act of Congress to remedy the grievan
cosses of the many brave officers who had
l rank or position by the action of the
Naval Advisory Board, that it • would be
in effect a condemnation of the action of
said board. Information having reached
the Secretary of the Interior that the con•
Viet, of the Albany (N. Y.l prison from
the District of Columbia were suffering
from too severe toil and privation, he sent
George C.
,spunWhitting, E
a ., of the Interior
i , spa merit, thither t `make inquiries and
resort facts. At Albany convicts are not
alio .ved to talk during work, or indulge in
areesoruents, while h ere they could work
tor theoaselves after doing a certain task,
and con'd talk among themselves, &e. It I
is said that the discipline at Sing Sing is
less severe Than at Albany, and Judge j
Usher may bot required to decide what kind
of prison treAtment is best calculated,
in his judgment, to temporarily arid per-
atanently benefit the caiminal. I
Tomorrow will be an event of interest
in this city: i. e., the sale of the half doz
en lots on which the National Intelligences
fin:Wings now stand, on Seventh street,
°city a little of which space is needed for
purposes connected with the publication
of the paper. It is classic ground, as it is
the site of the original building that was
burned by the British troops upon their in•
vasion of Washington. This and the
public buildings were the only ones de
stooyed.

There is some one dead in thetollse.
And the clock in the hall is still,
And the maid walks.assoft as the mouse,
That walks in the flour at the mill.
Ti - e sun-lig:lit creeps in at the door
The dog lies asleep in the shade :
The cat is curled up on th fl oor.
Where the light in dashes is laid.
The'white sand on the floor is damp.
And the table of pine is clear:
The taper is trimmed in the lamp.
Standing straight are the chairs with fear.
The curtains fall softly and white
The fry leaves cling t g o the wall:
With a quiver of changeful light
They carpet the door of the hall
Thate one in the house is dead.
the long summer clay knows;
That thei , oppies and flowers have read
In the low South -wind that blows.
The carpet of grass in the yard
Is netted with the clover-blooms white
And its green is all over stared
With butter-cups, yellow and bright.
The s pring - house, far down in the shade,
The leafy beach -tree spreads around;
Ilas a spring, that runs to the glade
Witl, a lonely, sorrowful 3ound.
The bright crimson roses aro dead.
No water nor rare have they had
The bird. in the tree over head
Sit sorrowful, silent and sad.
