As the building was a frame one, the flames rapidly ee spread, and before the engines got on the ground, ie had enveloped not cn'y Mr. Gartner's house, but the one next door, No. 216, occupied by Mr. Henry Degro. The two buildings, together with stables, etc., were entirely consumed. When our reporter left (124 o'clock), the main fire seemed et to be pretty well in band, while the buildings con tiguous being brick, there did not appear to be much darger that the conflagration would spread further. The tauildings, 214 and 216, will prove totally destroyed. What insurance there was on them, it any, our reporter could not ascertain. THE ALARM or FILEr about half past 9 o'clock last evening came from the fourth tire distrit, th aLd was caused by the breaking out of a fire in t, Apsosaoi lamser yard ad rztedamg to the Star Planlng Mills and several small residences ar sound them. The fire was first discovered in the ( flice at!ached to the planing mil, and spreading with great rapidity, soon ignited the lumber ard the acrjinirg tensmente. The destruction of property was very great, as but very little of the buriong lumber could be saved. It is not known to wL..t extent the property was insured.

Her R acting in the death warrant scene of the second t act was, we thought, the greatest triumph of the the evenl.g.

The love scene with Es- t on sex might, we thought, have been a little warmer and more emotional, and the oath scene at the ck c'ose of the second act was less spirited, all In all, than we had anticipated from Miss Janauschek's t in dieplas of intense yet subdued passion in other f ,he seemes Ye few am Wim thesa e r appleae f 'e in both cases, and not without reason, for despite he the points mentioned, there was created by either t ug icere an interest sufficient to rivet upon the d I layers the eyes of all beholders, and win their I of emphatic commendation.

About two o'clock, yesterday morning, the fire iii bells sounded the alarm for this, fifth, district. he The streets at the time were deserted, but not many moments elapsed before they reoechoed with ay the rattling of the fre engines, trucks and hose be carts hastening toward Camp street, opposite a Natchez Alley, where already, in the upper por ad tion of building No. 75, occupied by ex-Mayor E. ch Heath as an upholstery and houne-.frnishing as ie tablishment, a blaze could be seen. The chief he engineer of the department, Mr. O Conner, was e almost immediately on the ground, and arranged ry his forces with admirable system to fight the de de vouring element. at The hore was led In over the Academy premil sea from St. Charles street, and opened its torrent e upon the rear of the burning building.

The front and side wall of the house remain r stardirg, but the roof and floors have fallen In, t making the place a ruin. d Next door was the stationery store of Mr. John b We .

It will seem scarcely creditable )7 to some, but it Is nevertheless a fact, that not a ro week before the latter went over, body and soul, as to the Radical candidate, Mr. Johnson assured the ce writer of this that not a member of his cabinet, to his knowledge, entertained the remotest idea of of supporting Gen. Grant's pretensions. Washington specials of the 20th say th' piesi ps dent has become indignant at the contemptuous manner with which the Senate treats his recom le mendations for office, and threatens to refuse to le sign any more bills. He sent four to Congress to i day which had become laws withouthissignature. it Alter to-day the constitutional ten days in which I- he has to sign bills exoires, and every bll which e he does not sign fails io become a law. there is a, likely to be a good deal of the time of the 41st ( ongress taken up in repassing the bills of this in ses'ion. te A colored man. J. S. Richardson, of this city, r- as addressed a note to Mayor Bowen.,a chairman re of the committee on the sale of tickets for the in ly auguration ball. stating that a number of his col :e cred friends from Philadelphia and New York ý* would be here on the 4th of March, arid asks *e whether any distinction on account of color is to r- be made in the sale of tickets. Mayor Bow en this m) mrcing wrote him saying: "That any person of i respectable character and standing in this commn y nity who applies and pays for a ticket to the loau n guration ball, to be held in the north wing of the tL treasury department, will not be denied, at leat e so far as my action Is concerned. The que tlion of 's color never having been raised in the comndttee I catuot, of coarse, decide for them." The Washington correspondent of the Balti more Gazette says: It is broadly admitted that the party in Congress is an incongruous n-ob, ut t rly powerlfss of good. Mr. Fessenden yester day distinctly declared that "the Repiblican party, with nomically more than two-thirds ma 3 jority in the Senate, cou'd do nothing iat all." 1 And this was said in reference to the mudlie rea. r, pecting the constitutional amendment! i But If the Radicals as a party are at Irreconcila ic ble loggerheads, distinguished individual sonators have lost none of their effrontery. Senator Sher ma n, who it is now supposed will be the new sec t retary of the treasury, and who is a burning and a shining light In the crooked path of tergiversa tion. recently said that when it is recol. lected that this gentleman engineered this very law through Congress, and afte:wards vorid for the condemnation of Pr3sident o Jolnon upon articles of impeachment for a 0 violation of their provisions, admitted to be ex e tremely doubtful, this piece of selistalttcatlon Y would be refreshing if in any manner uncommon wi h Senator Sherman. I have known him solemn e ly to declare that nothing could ever indure him to deprive asy one. rebel or " loyal," of the right of et.lrage while according it universally to the negro population of the South, and I have known 0 ttis same man in less than twenty-four hours afterwards unblushingly to vote for and defend a bill prescribing this very enormity. Beyond the passage of the fifteenth amenament (giving negroes the right to vote and hold ofilce throughout "the Republic"), the bill granting Mrs. Lincoln a pension of $5000 per annum for life; the bill to compel the commingling of white and negro children in the public schools here: the bill a little forther tightening the screws up in the States of Georgia, Arkansas and Louisiana; bills further reconstructing Virginia, Mississppi and Texas: a few private jobs with " money in them," and the " annual appropriation bills," there will be no more measures of great public impo-tance got through Congress this ses'lon. t A VEsN:Ralt.E LaDy.--Mrs. Hannah Pettingallt, elf Iel bertown, lMass., celebrated her one hunoo dredth birthday recently. 8he had ten brothers and sisters, one of whom reached the age of ninety nino years.
