On Monday night ab< ut 1 o'clock the large barn of Mr. <• J. John ston, who lives in the Western part of town, was discovered ablaze with fire, and the roof almost ready to fall in. The alarm was given and a large number of peo ple quickly responded, but could do nothing, and the building and its contents were totally destroy ed, together with a large fattening hog, which was nicely baked in his pen beside the barn. In the barn was about 200 bushels of corn, 2000 bundles of fodder, 4000 pounds of cotton seed hulls, and several sacks oi meal. Fortunately the wind was in such direction as to cause the forked fiames which leaped out in great fury from the hugh mass of burning fodder and miss the new and handsome dwelling of Mr. Johnston only a short dis tance, else it could not ffeen ; saved; as it was it. took 'heroic work to prevent the house from being destroyed.
