The building and about $90,000 worth of to bacco and cigars was consumed, not to exceed $1,000 worth of manufactured goods belutr saved from the lire. It is not positively known to bo so, but the impression prevails that the fire was the work of an incendiary. The building, together with the stock ot manufactured tobacco on band, was worth from $30,000 to $3.1,000, with $10,000 insurance on building and stock. The loss of this establishment is a heavy blow to Metropolis, and we hope to hear of the tlnu returning business again soon.

The Lady or the Tea Parly Throw it Cup rull or the Beveraite, Keel Hot, at nra. . s. n. Caiuo, III., Dec. 13, 1875. Mu. Epitok: 1 have to begin tills let tcr by scolding some one of your type setters, for using the word "save," In stead of "earn," (as it was written in tny manuscript), thereby giving Mrs. S. J. S, a rhnnce fn accuse me of misrepresent' Hon. I am filled with admiration verging upon consternation, when I witness the dexterity with which she slips out of tha tight-fitting robes with which 1 clothed her last week, and tries to transfer them to the Centennial Association and your humble correspondent. It is afeat equal to any of the ropc-untylng mediums, and will uo doubt be as much appreciated by the world. It Is scarcely necessary for me to assert a fact well known to the public, that 1 could not have meant tbe Centennial Association ladies were gos sips, because their characters are too well known in Cairo to make It necessary for me to defend tlicm from such an accusa tion, or heap such a one upon them my self. As to my own predilection for gos siping, it would be tuclcss to deny it, as all newspaper letter-writers are more or less altllctcd In that manner. Mrs. S. J. S. thruita that terrible two edged question at mc again, "where, If not out of your husband's pocket, tho money comes from," etc. I, for one, shall not attempt to dispute it so far as I am concerned, and I don't see what rea sonable objection can be raised to such a natural state ot affairs. Hut If Mrs. S. J. S. were as strong an advocate of woman's rights ns she professes to be, she would not try to leave the Impression upon the public mind, that all women get their nickles from their husbands' pockets. I could refer her right hero In Cairo to wo men who sew, teach, wash, iron and even carry on business Miecessfully, thereby earning their own living, aud in many cases supporting or helping to support their husbands. In reply to the question, "why, if an hnntat penny only is to be turned, resort to such means?'' I can heartily answer that we think the pennies very honestly turned Indeed, when wc furnish a nice Mippcr and a pleasant evening fur tweii-ty-llyu cents, as we intend doing at our tea party next Wednesday night. Finally, Mrs, S. .1. S.;teems to miscon strue the motives of our society entirely. Wu have not the least desire to "tie" her hands on the contrary, we want her to continue using them as effectively (for the good of our cause) as she has already been doing. And if in assisting the Cen tennial Association, I also anlst the woman's suffrage cause, then indeed will my ambition be gratified, for that Is Just what I want to do. I noticed with pain that in the latter part of her letter, licr mlud seemed tu wander. She was not, could not have been our opponent lastSpriug, because our assoclatlou did not then exUt. It was only organized on tho 2;id ol November, aud thercloro her statements as to what It did or didn't do last spring, must necessarily fall harmless to tha ground. She closes In u contradictory spirit of egotism, humility and candor; ut least it seems to me, to savor of vanity, to refer to one's self as having "a ready pen and readier wit ;" aud then again, I think It an unnecessary piece of candor to call herself "a mere foam that rises to tho top of tho highest wave, and whose greatest ambition is to favor popular opinion." Now, allhoutrli foam Is u bountiful and sparkling tiling, 1 really think Mrs. S. J. S. is too solid to be likened to It, ami that sho has any desire to curry favor with the public I can scarcely believe, Judging from her loiters. Let me close this long epistle by re. ferring to an article signed M. W. also in tills morning's Otizttte. If I were a man, I would like to wager that M. W. never has and never will give u dollar towards making the new levee, and that tho rea son our association will "never get a cent out ot him," Is because he lias not got any to give, aud bis friends will not loan hltu any.

RerenS Mabeao Coram Cae at Vlenaa-tbe Chllal Ulven . to the rather,. The Several day ago we staled that ,an 'In teresting habeas corpui ens was then, on trial before Judge Baker lu the Johnson county circuit court; that a yoifng man named Hodge and a daughter of Capt, Alf.,Cutting ware the parties, ami the contest for possession of a child a little boy. At thu time the Item referred to was written w were ignorant of the real facta lu the case, and in order that we might not do either party lnjustlcc,.re: f rained from comment. Since then, wo haye learned morn about the matter, and now are able to give our readers the facts, at we gathered them from a gentleman who wus in Vi enna during the progress of tho iriai, nnu wno nut himself to some troublo to learn all about It and the hlv tory of the parties to tho stilt. In 1872, a young lawyer named Berry llodgc, and Miss Alice Cutting, a hcatitt fill and accomplished young lady, (laugh tcrol Capt. All. Cutting, the well-known boat builder ut Metropolis, were married Mr. and Mrs. Hodge lived together for about a year, or until February 1873, when n child, a littlu boy, was born to them. They were, to alt appearance. Happily mated, and much attached to each other. If there was ever any cauae of disagreement or difficulty between them, no one but themselves was aware oi it. Shortly after tho birth of their child, Mr. llodgo was attacked with hemor rhage of the lungs, and failing to obtain relict from borne physicians, he resolved to go to Colorado, in the hope of regain ing his health. His wife accompanied him as far as .this city on his Journey, and the two spent a day or two together ncre before lie proceeded on his way to tho "far WesL" Mrs. Hodge re- turned to Metropolis, and Mr. Hodge went to Colorado. Husband and wife kept up a cor respondence, and the letters which passed between them wcro full of expressions of love, and hope for tho spcedy,rccovery of the husband. Mr. Hodges speut six mouths in Colo rado, at the expiration oi which time, haying regained his health, and liking the country, he concluded to locate there. He wrote to his wife informing her of his intentions and requesting her to go to bun. In answer to this requctt she refused to go unless he should come to Metropolis after her. In the Spring ot 1874, having been successful in business, Mr. Hodges came to Metropolis for his wife, but she declined to go with him. Bttore comlughchad several times urged her to go to him, but she steadily re fused to do so. He also sent money for the support of the child; but his wife re turned the moaey to him without mak ing any explanation of her reasons tor so doing. At tbe last term of thu Massac county circuit court, the wife, Mrs. Hodge, tiled her bill for divorce. Information of this action on the part of his wife being made kuowu to the husband, lie came oa to defend himself. Arriving at Metrop olis, Hodges wrote u not to Ids wife urging her to forget tbe past, and go with him to his home hi Col orado. To this note ho never received a reply. Despairing of ever getting his wife to go with him to Colorado, Hodge resolved to take legal steps to get posses sion of the child. To this end he sued out a writ of habeas corput for tho cus tody of the child. The ease was tried be fore Judge Uakor lu the Johnson county circuit court last week, and resulted lu tho father obtaining the custody of the boy. Our Informant slates that during all the trial there was uotblug brought out to show that there had ever been trouble between the husband and wife ; but on the contrary, while they lived together, they were, ut laasi to the outside world, tbe happiest when alone together. Their correspond nice, which was ot a most interesting character, would lead oue to bollevo they were ns much attached to one another us ever. Indeed, tho whole affair seems to beau Inexplicable mystery, and it is doubted whether the parties themselves really kuow the causes leading to their es trangement. Mrs. Hodge is a most accompliilied aud beautiful young lady, now ubout twenty-oue years oi age. Mr. Hodge Is In his twcnty-lifth year, aud represented to be a young lawyer of extraordinary attainments in his profession, and very Industrious. Judga W. II. Green, of Cairo, and it. W. McCartney, of Metropolis, appeared for Mr. Hodge, and Judge J. 11. Mub key, of Cairo, aud Judge Allen, of Car bondulc, for Mrs. Hodge. 'Portrait Glnrea."
