Great Conflagration In Rev for*—Bar nan’s Hasean Totally Destroyed. The destruction of Barnum’s Museum by lire on the 13th, from the noted character of the place, caused great excitement. The New York papers are filled with detailed de scriptions of the conflagration, from which we condense the following: It broke out at about half-past twelve o’clock in the afternoon in a basement stor age room adjoining another room in which there was a steam boiler, under the rear of Barnunt's Museum, on Auu street, and swept upward rapidly through that famous establishment, and extended thence hlong Ann street to Broadway and towards Nassau street and through the block to Fulton street The progress ot the flames was very rapid, and soon all that was left of the world re nowned Museum was a heap of blackened and smouldering ruins, and ultimately, be-, fore mastery of the devouring element had been gained by the firemen, a clean sweep was made of all the buildings on Broadway between Ann and Fulton streets, along Ann street as far as and including No. 12, and along Fulton street to No. 155. Other houses were considerably damaged. Altogether eighteen buildings were destroyed,and others received considerable damages. At one time during the fire the Herald Building, and in fact the entire block em braced by Broadway, Ann, Fulton and Nas sau streets, was in imminent danger. That ancient edifice, St. Paul’s church, on Broad way, opposite Barnum’s Museum, was also at one time Seriously threatened; but it also was saved. Some lew of the Museum.curi osities were rescued ; but by far the greater part of this rare aud valuable collection, to gether with the other property in the estab ment, was in a very short time swept,out of existence. Mr. Barnum’s loss on stock is estimated at three hundred thousand dollars, on which it is said, he had an insurance ot only sixty thousand dollars. The loss on the building, which did not belong to Mr. Barnum, is forty thousand dollars. It was insured. Tbe entire losses on buildings aud Stocks by this lire foot up about one million and a quarter of dollars. During its progress sev seral persons received injuries, and there are rumors, though it cannot be ascertained to a certainty, that some few lives were lost. It is supposed the origin of the fire was acc-i --de ntal. The New York Herald has the following account ot scenes at the fire. ✓ SEEING THE CURIOSITIES. The majority of the crowd seemed delight ed at the chance of seeing the curiosities gratis. One of the employees of the Museum, who passed through the crowd with a bunch of coral in one hand and a stuffed raccoon in the other, was loudly cheered. But the ex citement rose to its height when the giantess, the fat 'lady and the white woolly-headed Albino passed down Fulton street, followed by a number of the ladies of the corps de ballet, who, poor things, had lost all of their theatrical wardrobe. The pantomime of the Green-Monster was to have been performed at the Museum iu the afternoon; but the Monster was consumed with the whales, the Happy Family and the snakes. The fat lady, the giantess and the ballet girls found a tem porary refuge in a newspaper office, where they rehearsed their losses to h small but se lect audience, and the Albino was spirited away to a more private location, where she could not be seen without paying for the privilege. About one hundred persons must have been thrown out of employment at the Museum, and many of the pantomimists, dancers and keepers will find it difficult to obtain employment at this dull season for amusements The crowd did not think of this, however. They were incessant in their cries of ‘boiled whale,’ ‘fried snakes,’ ‘broil ed monkey,’ aud ‘roast elephant,’ thus dis playing a sort of yamin wit and perfect fa miliarity willi the contents of the Museum. ‘Throw me out one of the canoes,’ or ‘Pitch me the bow-constructor, I wants it for a tip pet,’ or ‘How are you, learned seal ?’ pro voked continual laughter. HOW THE ANIMALS FARED. When the fire first broke out and the smoke Commenced to penetrate the galleries there arose the most peculiar Babel of sounds which it was ever allotted to mortal to The Happy Family quite belied that cogno men —the moukeys jabbered, the dogs bark ed, the cats mewed, parrots screamed, bears growled, kangaroos kangarooed, paroquets screamed ‘ otter, otter," aud the poor otter, not caring for the smoke, buried himself in his native element. The g birds fluttered against the bars of their cages and sang most doleful melodies. To save those poor ani mals was one of the first things thought of, aud the first who presented himself to our notice was poor “bruin” himseli, making the descent of tbe ladder in a very peculiar man ner. He seemed quite savage and not at all inclined for fun. After some consibe rable time he reached not the top of the ladder but|the foot,and once on terra jinna he looked as contented as a bear could look under the circumstances. Louder grew the jabberings of the mon key tribe, who leaped frantically about, the boa constrictor writhed in agony as the heat became stronger, and a dismal series of wails from the whales, who had not been used to tropical seas, mingled with the rhapsodies of the astrologer, the pantings of the fat wo man and the groanings of the giantess. The two latter were half frantic, and the maniac penman made the most artistic flourishes with his quill. Poor Ned, the educated seal, who was wont to astohish spectators with his sagacity, who used to turn the handle of a barrel organ, and do everything but speak, was seized upon by a couple of men; his res cuers succeeded in bringing Ned to a place of safety, and we may at some future time see him perform as of yore. „ With these exceptions, we fear all the ex ensive and interesting collection of animals tell a prey to the fiery element, with the ex ception perhaps of a few birds, which may have succeed in flying off. Rehabilitation -of Florida. Ex-Governor Marvin Appointed Provis ional Governor. —Judge Marvin, formerly United States District Judge for the Southern district of Florida, was appointed, on the 13th inst, Provisional Governor of that State by the President. This appointment completes the work of supplying all the States lately in rebellion with civil executives, and in once mcffe placing the entire sisterhood of the Union under the direction of Governors, either elected or appointed, acknowledging and in accord with the general government. Judge Marvin was to leave Washington, for Florida early this week. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. I From thetTew York Evening Post, 14th.) The market is dull and At the close there was a better feeling.

In many instances delays have resulted in paying mustered out troops, in consequence of regimental and company officers allowing their men to disband, it violation of orders, prior to their commands being re ported for payment and final discharge to the Chief Mustering Officer or his Assistant, after arrival at the designated State Rendezvous. In other cases there has been delay from company and regimental officers neglecting to furnish full data relative to the enlisted men, thus rendering the muster-out rolls imperfect, and necessitating corrections. With the arrangements of the War Department, as now completed, there need be no delay, and conse quently no hardship or inconvenience to the enlisted men, if foil data for the rolls be furnished in the field, and, if afteFarrival in their respective States, as well as during transit thereto, commissioned officers look closely after the comfort and interests of their men, and remain constantly with them, so as to enforce or ders and control them. It is therefore Ordered : That Chief Mustering Offioers, and their assistants, report by telegram the names of all neglectful officers, with the charges against them, to the Adjutant Gen eral of the Army, (withholding in the meantime their final payments and honorable discharges,) with a view to their summary and dishonorable dismissal from the service with forfeiture of all pay. The report, by tele graph, will be sent promptly upon cases of neglect be ing bronght to notice, and at the Same time the facts in full will be reported by mail.
