E. Dixon, but occupied by Mrs. M. E. . Pat ten as a boarding bouse, was on fire, Be ing Sunday afternoon all the firemen wore idle, and in a very short time after the ularm the different fire companies were on tho spot, rendering what aid lay in their power. There was such great de lay from the time the tire was discovered to the lime the alarm boll was sounded, that the lire had gotten under full head way before any of tho fire department had arrivod. No ono knows the origin of tho tire, whether it was the result of ac cident or au incendiary. When first dis covered it shone forth in full blaze from the roof of tho houso, and in such posi tion as very hard to roach. The ontiro roof was destroyed, and the upper floor and walls very greatly dam aged by lire and wntor. The lower por tion of tho house was deluged, and hence much injured. Tho house was insured in tho Georgia Homo Insurance Company for $5,000. Tho estimated loss on tho house is $2,500. Tho greatest loss has fallon ou Mrs. Patten, for aside from the burniug of hor home, and temporary broakiug up of her boarding-house, she has lost Inrgoly in furniture, glass and silver ware. There wore several families boarding in the bouse, whoso furniture, Ac., was insured, Mr. Chapman’s loss, about $500, was fully coverod in the Georgia Homo; while Messrs. Henry aud Win. Bruco, whoso loss is $500, are in sured with the Firoman’s Fund Insurance Company. Mr. Verstillo had no insurance on his furniture, and lost most of it. While a groat doal was saved, it was necessarily damaged very much, from breakage and wator. Tho lire department did ail they could to Hftvo tho house and personal property, while tho City Light Guards (undo a de tail and guarded the proporty from the depredations incident to tiros. Such nu selfishness is to be praised, and is a valu able adjunct to tho former management. another ai.ahm. At ton o’clock in tho sauio night tho alarm was given, and tho stooping fire men wero soon aroused and at their posts. It turned out that tho embors of the same firo had blnzed out, and that the walls of the rooms lately extinguished were again on lire. In a short whilo ovory spark was extinguished, and ovory Aestigo of tho tire was suou in oharred posts aud wet ashes. Wo particularly regret tho fire on ac count of the loss, and serious personal iuconvouionco to Mrs. Patten. Sho has struggled heroically with adverse fortune, and now in the present stringency it is iudood hard. She has the sympathy of the community, and we hope will soon he able to resume her pleasant boarding house. Religious. Kov. Father Feruican will preach in tho Catholic Church to-day, ut 10} o'clock.

What they are, and my merits, 1 trnst time and opportunity will prove, as I will hereafter be found at Mr. Tiff Moore’s Gallery. mb 10 It Uemby Cabling.

Attention { As my Address on elementary Aobi- cultural Chemistry, teaching the ohoap- est and shortest means for procuring and compounding manures, is enthusiastically received and heartily endorsed by almost every intelligent planter in this section, and that I may be compensated in a meas ure somewhat commensurate with the acknowledged merits of the production and value of tho information conveyed, I do from this date establish the price at 50 cents per copy. Iu consideration of this change, 1 do hereby agree to re fund the money to any farmer who, after reading the production, will certify to me he is not fully satisfied with the invest ment. There is no slavery ao hopeless as that whioh compels a man to support a family by the cultivation of poor laud. The problem to be solved by the South before we can hope for agricultural recu peration and prosperity, is cheap and re liable manures. The Address solves that problem. I defy the agricultural or sci entific world to disprove one fact or post- tion taken in the Address. J. Monroe Lbnicabd, Columbus, Ga.
