Tbc Chicago Fire.
So near as we can mako out from tho earlier
dispatches iu this edition, tho great Chicago
conflagration was finally extingniahed by a
heavy ram noma limo after three o'clock yester
day morning- Tho additional details are dis
tressing. Tho loss is roughly estimated at two
hundred millions, and we havo no donbtwill be
in excess of that sum. The destruction was no
complete and nniveraal that tho merchants
generally lost even their papers. The great balk
of them are mined. Ten thousand will be com
pelled to make assignments.
Many of the insurance companies in New
York and elsewhere announced a temporary
suspension Tnesday morning. Easiness failures
in Now York and Philadelphia are reported,
and many more said to be pending. The enor
mous extinction of value by this fire will be a
staggering blow, for a time, npon the whole
commercial and financial fabric. Everybody
will feel it more or less, and if the currency of
the rountry were on a specie basis at this time,
there would bo an universal panic in the money
market. Fortunately, as affairs aland, it will
not impair the volume or valne of tho currency,
although it will produco a good deal of strin
gency and cunfnsion for a limo. Its financial
effects, however, are still to be developed.
The moat luolanebolly featnro of all, is the
loss of life reported, which wo fear will bo
shown lo be greater than is now apprehended.
It was a fire altogether without precedent in this
country, and such an one as would havo liecn
impossible bnt for the long drouth and tho ta
rtans gale which drove great billows of ilamos
beforo it with tbo fury and intense boat of a
blast fnrnacc.
A Loose EurnANT.— At tho close of an exhi
bition by O'llricn'a menagerie in Meridian, Con-
nocticnt, last Thursday, tho largo elephant
loosened his chain which held him and went on
a tramp. IIo want throngh (he rtnAis, upset
ting Ihreo or fonr cages, smashing one or two
in pieces. Coming in contact with a male, he
ran his Insk right throngh him, killing the mule
instantly. lie then made minco-meat of hint
by stamping upon him. lie then took i<|> bin
line of march fur the orchard, tearing up trees
in his wi'd career. Ho brhnght ono of his tanks
lo bear upon a Ireo with such foreo as to break
the task off close to tho flesh. Tho town was
wild with excitement. Oonfu.-lou prevailed on
all sides. A number of shots wore fired from
shot-guns and pistol*. One gentleman fired
aixeen shots at tho lingo mounter. This only
increased his rage. In most instances tho allots
bounded off from bis tcugb bide. At six o'clock
in tho evening ho had not been retaken.
Tax Croc e.r 1871.—If tho facts, elsewhere
stated, sajs the Montgomery Advertiser, re
garding tho cotton receiptn at Mscou and Col
umbus, Georgia ami Montgomery, Alabama,
could lie regarded ns acenrato indices to the
extent of the incoming crop our estimate of
2,420,000 halos would barn to “ roost n liltlo
lower.” Hat tho crops of Arkansas and Texas
are a nhailo better than ours, and wo linvo put
that fset in the balance as a counterpoise to
the inferenoo growing out of the manifuat fail
ure of the Alabama and Georgia fields to pro
duce thus far fifty par cent, of tho cotton in
1871 that they yielded in IS70. If the goneral
yield of the South averaged no moro Ilian
Georgia and Alabama wo should have an aggro
gate of 2,1 !H),000 bales as the orop of 1871. lint
allowing 2:10,000 for tho superior crops of more
favored sections (over and above tho average
ahown by onra) wo havo 2,420,000 bales or
eleven this year where there wero twenty last
year.
tin art. A dispatch from Galveston daring
tho election said the negroes in that oonnty rt
fnved to vote, alleging fear of discharge from
employment if they voted the Radical ticket
It waa supposed that this was part of a scheme
to procure the annulment of the election if the
Radicals were defeated. Galveston oonnty being
largely Democratic, nothing was lost by the
contumacy of the negroes, and in eaae of defeat
all might be saved, by showing a notorious case
of “intimidation,”
The Dnorrn in tux Wist.—Chicago dates of
the <nh instant, aay the drouth now prevailing
in the West has not been equaled within a pe
riod of twenty-five years. All throngh.central
and southern Illinois the wells and small streams
are completely dried up, and the inhabitants
find great difflonlty in obtaining sufficient water
for their households and stock. The soil is so
dry that ploughing is rendered impossible.
No Moax Oaxcs Belli.—The Atlanta Son
thinks the platform of the New York State Dem
ocratic Convention one of two good things done
by that body. Well, our opinion is, if the plat
form suits Mr. Stephens, it will be equally ac
ceptable to every Northern and Weetem Demo- . ,
cratio politician, and, thereupon, all controversy their
between them and Mr. Stephens might be put to
root. We printed that platform yesterday.

A small dose of Ku-klox, judiciously admin
istered among some of tbe nurses of Savannah,
would possibly be a good thing. One of thorn,
aa related by the News, of Monitor, “a" short
time ago, dropped an infant from her arms on
tbe pavement, and severely iojored it; and, tbe
other day, just aa the little one was recovering
from its hurts, the same none turned tbe car
riage over, again injuring tho child, and it has
since died.”

The annual reports of the Mayor and Treas

of tbo city finances and of the present and pro
spective prosperity of tho city. Tbe increase

yesterday momiog as the Georgia Railroad pas
senger train waa coming into tbe city, a negro
man named Richard Kendrick, was rnn over
and killed by a train on the Air Line Road, jnat
Ill-low Bell street bridge. Kendrick, it appears,
was blind in one eye and doaf in one ear, and
waa on tho Air Line track watching the Georgia
train coming in. His body was cat in two, and
death must have been instantaneous. Tbe ver
dict of tbe Coroner's jury was in accordance
with the facts.
Scene at Fulton SurERion Court.—Delta
qnnnt grand juror is brought in by a bailiff.
Judge, patting on a Jove-like frown, begins to
question :
Judge—Mr. Juror, why haven’t you put in an
appearance beforo this ?
Jnror—May it please your Honor, my bnsi-
ness is better now thsn it has been for a tong
time, and I thought I could play out of it.
Judge—Wbat made you come this time?
Juror—Tho bailiff come after me.
Judge—Would you have came if the bailiff
bad not gono after yon ?
Juror—My name is Goorgo Washington, and
I c-iu’t tell a lie! I would not!
Judge—Mr. Sheriff, collect $23 from Mr. Ju
ror and koep him in cnatody until f urther orders.
IIsniAS Conrus Case.—Yesterday Judge Pift-
insu had an intereating halieas corpus caso up
before him. Emma Terrell, a colored womau,
sued out tbo writ of habeas corpus for tbe pos
session of her son, Wm. Morgan, eight years
of ego. It appears that Emma bad abandoned her

to C C. Green, Esq. Emma wanted him back.
Upon bearing tbe evidence. Judge Pittman
swarded tbe child to tbe custody of tbe mother.
Upon the announcement of tbo decision, the
bov began to cry vehemently, and dropping on
bis knees beforo Judgo Pittman, besought him
not- to take him away from Mr. Green.
Yesterday morning Mr. Green sent tbo boy
in under tbe charge of two men. Tho mother
forcibly took possession of him, wheren|ion tbo

and inflicted several. slight wounds npon her
person.
A young man named Patterson, living at

Tbo Atlanta Sun, of yeslorday, nays:
In a short interview with CoL B. Y. Sage,
the Goneral Superintendent of the Air-Lino
Railroad, our reporter was informed that twenty-
five luiloa of Ihe road beyond Gainesville were
ntsirly ready for tho iron, which will be laid
down in a low days. Also, that ten miles of
iron have been laid down this way, commencing
at Charlotte, and that seventy-five miles aru
nearly completed, that the track layers will not
be able to catch up with tho grading. A large
forco is at work, and tbe road will cortainly bo
completed throngh from Atlanta to Charlotte in
tho course of 1872.

Accident at WiTHins ,t Jones’ Founduv.—
An accident, which might bnvo had tbe most
fatal conscquenoes, occurred Saturday, at the
foundry of Messrs. Withers A Jones, near Uio
State Road shops. A grindatono of the Berea,
Ohio, manufacture, and weiging 1,300 pounds,
burst while making 340 revolutions per urinate.
A fragment weighing 600 pounds waa thrown
fifteen feet, and another piece weighing 300

nately, nono of tbe workmen were hurt. A ne
gro man was slightly hart on the han-L It was
indeed a narrow escape.
A Federal soldier named Divine, diod Monday

died of the same disease, a day or two before.
There are several other cases in the garrison
there.
Upon W lint Principle tlie Legislature
Should Organize.
Mr. Stephens, in yesterday's iasne of the At
lanta Sun, after referring to the reports that
have gone forth from Atlanta in regard to the
formation of certain rings or combinations hav
ing for their object the organization of the Leg
islature in tbe interests of certain selfish
schemes, speaks these words of wisdom, which
should be read and heeded by every honest
member of both houses. He says:
Let the Legislature organize npon no princi
pie. exoept Democratic principles, on which the
majority was elected. Upon these principles
they can give no countenance to corruption in
tow or high. In the selection of
i, therefore, let both Houses look
mainly to ability and fidelity to carry ont the
great trust committed to their charge, with a
fixed determination to be governed in all their
actions, from tbe beginning to the end, by no
policy, but that which shall best vindicate the
honor, dignity, and rights of the State, as well
aa the rights and interests of the people at large.
If any discrimination is made in guarding the
rights and interests of one close with more vigi
lance than those of another, let it be in behalf
of the tax paying, laboring class, wbo ore earn
ing their bread, in some department of industry
or other, by the sweat of tbeir brow.
Let the rights and interests of this class, who
are scattered all over the land, and who can
neither form combinations nor employ lobby rep
resentatives, be the special objects, if any are,
of their greatest cue and watchfulness.
