LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,
Fire in the Fourth Ward
A fire, attended with considerable loss
of property, broke out on Irwin street, in
the Fourth Ward, on Friday night. It
was first discovered in the dwelling of J.
Mauler, drayman, a two story frame tene
ment, and communicated thence to a tav
ern adjoining, occupied by Mr. Frazer.
Both houses were gutted, and two others
considerably damaged. There was a
strong wind blowing at the time, end our
readers can imagine how cold it was when
we state that the thermometer was very
nearly down to .-2ro. If hand engines had
to be depended on, the entire block must
have burned down, as the cold was no in
tensely bitter that the men could not have
stood five minutes on the brakes. As it
was, however, the engines soon got the
fire under, and two or three thousand dol
lars will repair all the loss. There was a
good deal of difficulty in getting water,
but this was a trifling matter compared
with the trouble which the firemen bad to
encounter in getting their hone away after
all was over. We saw numerous sections
so firmly attached to the ground with ice
that they had to be cut out, while others
were so badiy frozen that they could not
be removed at all. The "Duquesne" had
to leave several sections of their hose ou
the ground, and it will tegaire considera
ble of a thaw before they can be remov
ed Some of the other companies, too.
had, we believe, to abandon their• hose in
the same manner. 1, was altogether u
hard night on the fireman, but they work
ed with a will throughout, and in less than
half an hour had the flames subdued.

this : Shortly after the election of IBn2,
W. W. Mason wished to send a dispatch
over Barry's telegraph line, asserting that
Venango county had gone Democratic.
Barry knew this to be untrue, and refused
to allow his operator to send the message.,
although a legal tender payment had been
offered. Mason thereupon brought en
section against Barry for damages. A
verdict was rendered for the defendant,
thus deciding that a telegraph line is not
bound to send a dispatch which contains
an untruth, Notwithstanding this decision,
it would be unsafe to allow operators to
decide upon the truthfulness of every dis
patch which passes through their hands.

PAYMENT OF TEE 1E 0 32 filiurA.—A
days previous to the October election, a
telegraph dispatch was sent from Harris
to all parts of the State announcing as area
son why the militia called into the service
of the State more than a year before that
time had not been paid, was because there
had been "no pay•rolls," but after a whole
year's deliberation and arduous labors, a
form of pay-rolle had been made out and
was then in the hands of the printer, and
the patrtotic malitiaman who had dropped
all his business and Hew to the defence of
the Statz would be paid immediately. The
election being over, the matter again rest
ed for near three months, and now we are
again informed that the Adjutant General
of the State is at Washington begging the
Government to give the militia men halt
pay. It is to be hoped that hie efforts will
not be in vain, and that those who left
their homes and business may get what
they sc nobly earned.

Tex (ix Carat: Pint holJl Al.—The :din
ers of Petroleum in Western Pennsylvania
are discussing the bearings of the proposed
tax of ten cents per gallon on crude petro
leum, the repeal of the drawback for ex—
portation as at present allowed on refined
oil on which the tax has been paid, and to
allow the exportation of refined as now
under bond. It requires three gallons of
c:udo oil to make two of refined. The tax
of ten cents on crude becomes fifteen
ents per gallon on the refined burning oil,
government guage at the refinery ; add the
present tax ct ten cents per gallon, making
the round tax of twenty five cents per gal
lon at the stills on every gallon used tor
home consumption. This tax could not
much perhaps interfere with the business
in petroleum, if it were not that the article
exists in Canada to a very large extent,
I though of inferior quality to ours. Refined
oil is also manufactured from the coal of
New Brunswick, and with the additional
tax proposed, it is believed that the Cana•
des can be supplied with as good an article
from their own manufactures at less cost
than we can supply.
In England, also, the manufacture of coal
oil has been carried on under restrictions
which are now about being removed.
Add ten cents per gallon to the crude
oil c f America, or eleven cents it leakage
is taken into account, and fifteen cents
tor refined, and the English manufacture
will be greatly stimulated to the exclusion
to the same extent ot American pro
duction. It is asserted that it the govern
'nem pianos this or any tax on crude or
refined oil which is nm entirely removed
on e.e..porte ot each, the E Ireet wilt be, and
twelve months, to completely ruin
the refining intersts, reduce the value of

such difficulty. Bow is this?
