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. Mcxicai. Lemons. —Miss Baber, whose lessons in murto are noticed in the advertising columns, haa the highest testimonials from the Savannah Conservatory in respect to her professional skill and capacity as a music teacher. She is a very faithful and xealons instructor. Contesting the Honors.—The Mobile Regis ter contests the claim of the Cincinnati Com mercial, that the Louisiana Legislature U “the most corrupt body on the face of tbe earth ” and insists that tals honor belongs to the Stanton Legislature of that State. day evening, the iron steed will be able to “tie to” a tree inside the corporation.

TIIE GEORGI A I'll ESS 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 “Savannah Racing Club” has blossomed ont with a new name, and now signs itself the “Savannah Jockey Club,” with Colonel George 8. Owens, President; Dr. J. D. Fish and Cap tain J. M. B. Lovell Viee-Preaident*, and Dr. J. T. McFarland, Secretary. The annual reports of the Mayor and Treas urer of Savannah have jost been published, and give a very gratifying exhibit of tho condition of tbo city finances and of the present and pro spective prosperity of tho city. Tbe increase in tbe valne of s ns eased real catato since 1869 has been $3,339,960. The total value of city real estate, including that not snbjcct to assess ment is upwards of seventeen and a quarter millions of dollars. Total losses from fires da ring the past year, $287,800. Nnmlier of deaths in tho city for tho year ending September 30, 1871, 1,033, eighteen more thsn tho year previ ous. Tho total funded debt c-f tbe city $2,817,140.

Dominick, charged with tho xunrder of his step-father, Robert Pilkinton, some 18 months or two years ago, and who was pardoned by the Governor, and tbo pardon afterwards revoked, and who then sued ont u writ of lutbeax corpvi before Judge Green, which was decided agsiiiht him, and afterwards carried to the Su premo Court, and tho judgment affirmed, was rc-arrested in Piko county on Snnday, and lodged in nnr jail to await bia trial at next Piko .Superior Court. A STnoixiNO carpet-bag negro, with s lingo foreign name, lectured in this city one nigbt last week on “Had American Slavery a Mis sion?’’ He gave ont at one of llio colored chnrcbes on Snnday night before, I hat for 15 cents a bead in fractional currency, ho would tell the “newly enfranchised” eome wonderful things that tbe white people did not want them to know, and which was important to them. The hall was crowded, but what he said we have been unable to find ont, although we have asked several negroes. llnllock and Hi Kimball returned to Atlanta on Monday. Wo find tho following items in the Atlanta Constitution of yesterday: Fatal, Accident.—About half paat five o'clock 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 son, whoron|Hin Judgo Pittman bound him out 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 little follow, with n jack knifo, began to cut ber, and inflicted several. slight wounds npon her person. A young man named Patterson, living at Fairliurn, Campbell connly, had his pistol to fall from his pocket on Monday, and a shattered arm was the result: 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. Tho Era, same date, says: 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 ne gro man was slightly hart on the han-L It was indeed a narrow escape. A Federal soldier named Divine, diod Monday st Atlanta, of typhoid fever. Another soldier 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.
