Editor Times. —As previously an
nounced the Sunday School celebra
tion came oil at Shiloh on yesterday,
and proved a decided success.
1 lie utmost good order prevailed
during the day. The following is a
programme of the exercises :
First—Singing by the choir.
Second—Address by Rev. W. C.
Dunlap.
Thi rd—Si n gi n g.
o £3
Fourth—Address by J J. Gaston,
Fifth—Singing.
After which we adjourned to the
table, which was loaded with all the
substantial arid delicacies the country
affords.
After dinner there was a sermon by
the Rev. David Stripling, with which
the exercises closed and the happy
ciowd dispersed to their several homes
each with the consciousness of having
spent a pleasant and long to be re
membered day.
The school at Shiloh is as orderly
and well conducted as any we have
ever seen, and would do credit to any
city. We found Mr. Robinson the
superintendent to be a pleasant and
affable gentleman.
Col. Walker, marshal of the day,
proved himself the right man in the
right place.
We need pass no eulogies upon the
singing as it is a well known fact that
Shiloh can boast of the best choir in
the county.
Jn conclusion we would return our
thanks to the people of Shiloh for the
kind and hospitable manner in which
we were treated.

Editor Times :—Crops iu this sec
tion are looking well, where we have
had «rain, although we are needing
rain at present. People generally are
clone laying by. Wheat turned out
sorry. Oats very good.
We are glad to say that we have
one of the best literary schools in the
county, taught by Prof. W. J. Doster
at Macedonia. His school yumbered
10G students last week, and still ins
creasing. 1 would say to the citizens
ot Sand Ilill to look to our interest
and up home societies. We
have a thick settlement and still cn
larging. We need a school house,
and must have one Let us all take
hold of it, and build us a good house,
as we have the right man in the right
place to instruct our children. I visit
ed his school house last week and
the house was crowded so bad that
the dictionary class had to form aline
in the yard to spell. Now gentlemen
can we be successful in farming unless
we have good tools and stock ? Well
it is the same way by a school. A
teacher cannot work to advantage
unless he has a roomy house. In con
clusion I would urge the people to
look into this matter, as we cannot
spend money in a better cause. I
hope that I may hear from some other
friend upon this important matter.
I am glad to say that I am still re
ceiving Jsome new subscribers to the
Times. Come up gentlemen and sub
sciibe as you will be pleased with it.
Yours truly,
J. M, Hamrick.

Hood and Johnston.
A correspondent writing from the
Allegany Springs, Ya, says:
“ Just now r there are not more than
one hundred and fifty people here
(though nearly all the best quarters
are engaged), and among them I find
several distinguished families from
the South* General J. B. Hood is
here, with his wife and family, which
is a thoroughly representative one.
Mrs. Hood is a tall, elegant and beau
tiful lady. The General uses crutchs
es, though a wooden leg supplies the
place of the one he lost at Chicatnau
ga, and the strength of his arm is
somewhat impaired by the w ound he
received at Gettysburg. Otherwise
he is healthy, handsome and hearty,
as lie ever was in Ills life. Though
only married since the war, General
Hood has four of the prettiest chil
dren I ever laid my eyes on—two
of them twins—and all so near of a
size that it is hard to tell which is the
oldest. But what astonished me
most were the nurses ; four nurses for
four children ; and they all seemed to
be busy—in fact, to have their hands
full. Three of the nurses are as black
as coal, and are young plantation ne
gresses from Louisaua, while the forth
is an old plantation mammy, evidently
a family relic, who will die as she
has lived among her old and her best
friends.
“Many a poor £okl southern negro
woman regrets the day she forsook
her old owners, when emancipation
proved rather a curse for them than
the bles-ing lor which it is intended.
General Joseph E. Johnston now vis
iting at Abiogdon, has engaged rooms
here, and, with his beautiful and ac
complished lady, will spend the season
here. And this is a coincidence —
Hood and Jodnson hobnobing at the
same watering place. Johnstson, the
most distinguished of all the living
officers of the late confederacy, Hood
the bravest and most gallant, who, by
virtue of Jeff. Davis, superseded
Johnston in command of the army at
Atlanta and left the way open so-
Sherman’s march to the sea. Had
Johnston been in command the way
would not have been so easy, and the
obstructions might have been serious
enough to thwart the Lieutenant Gen
erals design. But, I suppose Hood
and Johnston will meet as companions
in arms ; bysgones will be by goues,
and they will talk over the past as
only two distinguished and great offi
cers who have done their duty can af
ford to do,”
Baltimore in Flames.
IMMENSE DESTRUCTION OE PKOPERtV.
Baltimore, July 25.—A little after
ten o clock to-day a fire broke out in
the ] Jailing mill of Joseph Thomas <!b
Cos., on the sonlhside of Clay streets.
Soon alter a general alas m was sound
ed, and the fire soon extended to the
three adjoing blocks, and an immense
conflagration is now raging. A stiff
southwest breeze is blowing and im , »
mouse cinders are wafted several
blocks off in the vicinity of the Cathe
dral. The locality of the fire is in the
immediate vicinity of the Presbyterian
Church. Rev. Dr. Smith, corner of
Liberty and Saratoga streets, where
the Presbyterian assembly was held.
The entire southwest corner of this
block is burned. Particulars will be
given as fast possible. Several fire en
gines from Washington have ar
rived.
Later.— The fire extends to Frank
lin street and Lexington Park. Four
churches are burned. The Cathedral
is threatened. It is reported that
St, Alphonsus is burning. Several
lives are reported lost, but the report
has not been confirmed. Water is
ample, and unless the wind increases
the flames will be confined to bounds
indicated.
One o’clock p. m.— The fire is still
raging, but will probably be confined
to the area bounded by Lexington
street on the south, Howard street on
the west, Mulbery on the north and
Liberty on the east. After breaking
out in the planing mill of Thomas &
Cos., on the south side of Clay street,
the flames rapidly spread across Clay
to the block bounded by Howard,
Liberty, Saratoga and Clay streets,
consuming nearly the entire block.
At this hour few buildings remain at
the northeast corner of the block, at
which point the Central Presbyterian
church, of which Dr. Smith is rector j
is located, which structure is now on '
fire. The probability is the entire
block will be consumed. From Clay j
street south the fire worked its way j
back to Lexington street, burning all
the buildings on Park street. The
fire is still raging on this block. On
the west side of Park street, from
Lexington to Saratoga nearly every
house has been burned. Fully two
thirds of the entire block, bounded by
Clay Park, Saratoga and Howard
Streets, is being consumed. The First
English Lutheran church on Lexings
ton street (Rev. Dr. Barclay’s), is en
tirely consumed. It is possible the
fire will not extend much beyond the
four blocks named. The streets in '
the immediate vicinity and for a num- \
her of blocks adjacent, are being jam- I
mod with thousands of people, furni- j
turo, wagons, drays, and every vehie> j
cle imaginable, loading up with and
removing furniture.
The greatest consternation prevails,
and the streets are being filled with
frantic women, hurrying in every di
rection with children, bedding, cradles
and various pieces of furniture in their
arms.
The whole fire department of the
city, with two engines from Wash
ington, are now successfully battling
with the flames. The supply of water
is ample, and unless the stiff breeze
increases to a gale, and wafts cinders
in other directions, it will undoubted
ly be confined to its present locality#
Baltimore, July 25 2:10 p m.— The
fire is still raging, but has not
extended any great extent be
yond the blocks named in the
last dispatch. Central Presbyterian
Church. Doctor Smith, Southeast
corner Saratoga and Liberty streets,
is a complete wreck, nothing remain
ing but walls. With the exception of
three brick dwellings on the south
east corner of this block in the inter
mediate rear of the ruins of the church,
not a building remains. At this hour, ;
the wildest rumors prevail in regard
to the fires in other portions of the
city, but an inspection oi the localities
named as on fire, fails to verify the
report. The roofs of several buildings
on Calvert street, north of Saratoga
street, have taken fire, among them
the Children’s Aid Society, Calverts
street,adjoining the city spring,but all
have been extinguished. St. Alphon
sus German Catholic Church, a beau
til’ul structure at the northeast corner
of Saratoga alid Park streets, is in
imminent danger, but at this moment
has not taken fire. Dispatches have
been received from Philadelphia offer
ing assistance. About one hundred
buildings have been burned.
Three O’clock p. m.— The fire is
still raging. Eight blocks and five
buildings have been burned. The an
thorities arc sending for outside help.
The water supply is failing. Clay
street, from Liberty to Howard, two
squares, is burned. This is a narrow st.
filled with carpenter shops and box
factories The steeple of the Central
Presbyterian Church is on fire. At
halt past one o’clock the fiercest por
tion of the fire was on Saratoga street
between Park and Liberty streets. On
the South side, every house on the
square was in flames. The lire reach
ed this square from the back buildings
which reach to the destroyed houses
on Clay street.
Notwithstanding the intensity of
the flames and the natural excitement
incident thereto, no panic prevailed in
the neighborhood of the fire, hut all
did their utmost to prevent the spread ;
mg of the flames. The new Salvage I
corps appeared on the scene and are
doing good sevice. No estimate of
damage is possible under the circum
stances. The work of moving is Will
going forward and the streets are
impassable. On Mulbery street the
buildings ot the Maryland Academy
of Art have been burned. Dr. Dal
rymples’ school adjoining is on fire.
Three handsome private residences on
the north side of Mulberry street, be
tween Cathedral street and Park, took
fire, but were saved with considerable
damage. A force of forty men are
passing water to the dome ot the Ca
thedral, which is covered with blan
kets.
Ten Minutes Past Four Oclock p.
m. The fire is now completely under
control and many who removed their
goods and furniture on blocks adja
cent to the hire are moving back.—
Reports are still circulated that several
children were burned and men kill
ed, but a strict inquiry at Marshals
office fails to verify any death by
burning.
