Special to the Xouisville Courier-Journal.: . WAsmsaios, Oct. 20. The' statement that the British and American Claims Commission gave a quasi-judichl decision to the effect that Columbia,South Carolina, was not burnt by tbe f ederal forces, is un founded. The eyidence before tho commis sion going to show that the town was fired by bberman's soldiers, witn tbe Knowledge and connivance of the leading officers , was overwhelming; but the agent and counsel for Ihe "United States, Mr. Hale, quoted authorities to show that a belligerent may lawfully destroy the property of arr enemy and oj an neutrals residing in tbe invaded coun try, and that the measure of such destruction must be the judgment of the invading belligerent himself. The com mission disallowed the twenty-lour aoutn Carolina causes, as they did nearly al oth ers, inoy rejected,- witnout assigning any reasons whatever, and the natural inference is that they decided questioos of law for the United States rather than the historical fact. pWhlch was established and very feebly dis puted. The documents printed and used before the commission constitute a very large mass. The proceedings are all con cluded, except the payment of the fortunate claimants. Mr. Henry Howard, Secretary of the British Legation, will probably be selected to disburse on the par. of Great Britain to British claimants tbe amounts found due to them. POLITICAL. .

His only firiog two shots and throwing away the pistol with two loaded chambers, and his exclamation and call "doctor, there is a man shot!" were dwelt upon as exc'udlng tho Idea of premeditated detlgu to kill. The counsel argued that Stokes bad no motive to kill, but Fisk, who was jealous, had every rea son for wanting Stokes out of tho way.

A fire broke out in Canastota last night, which was quenched this morning,, after burning over six acres of territory, destroying three hotels, thirty-two. dwellings and be tween forty and. fifty places of business. Tbe total Joss is estimated by insurance agents at $150,000; total insurance, $90, 000. The fire was undoubtedly incendiary.

Tbe citizens held a meeting to-night and passed resolutions inviting' pecuniary aid of the charitable everywhere, and appointing Mr. D. H. Rasbacht, Cashier of Conastota Bank, to receive any contributions. A committee was also appointed to investi gate the cause of such frequent fires. The fire at Canastota was first discovered shortly after midnight in a barn in rear of the Beecher block and adjoining the Eagle Hotel on Centre street. It quickly communicated to the hotel and Spencer's Manufactory of Opitcal Instru ments; adjoining the post office. A strong southern wind prevailed' during the fire. Northward the width of the track of fire was about half a block. The flames swept everything up to Canal, then leaned, over Canal .and. traveling on the block on the other side made J the destruction complete. Tbe stores destroyed were mostly wooden, with occa sionally a brick building. . An engine sent from Oreida and tbe Canastota engine played on the fire but the violence of ,the gale,' in spite of drenching rain, 'neutralized all their efforts. Finally, there being noth ing more to burn in that direction, the fire" was subdued. Two hours before discovery of this fire", a barn belonging to the Central road and used for spring hay was burned.

The Catholic parish of SL Brid get, over which Father Walsh presides, has lost 700 members by death since tbe fever appeared in its midst. St. .Paters parish, under the Domincan sway, from whence Fathere Dailey,-Carey,-Sbopby and O'Brien have Sbeen gathered to their fathers, has lost 200 of its members. St. Mary's Catho lic parlsn, comprised or uermans, over which the Franciscan fathers preside, has lost 60 of its f&ck. Rev. Dr. Slater's Meth odist church has lost, some 50 or more of its flock. The mortality among the other folds and orders has been reported from time to time. THE FEVEB AND THE PROSPECT. From the Memphis Avalanche, Oct. 26. The yellow fever has existed in Memphis since the 10th of August; for five weeks -it has been epidemic, and not less than 1,200 persons have died irom , tne disease. As early as the 0th August there were several deaths each day, in and about Happy Hol low, from a malady since, pronounced yel low fever. On the ldtn ot September the (then) Board of Health announced that about 80 deaths had occurred, though there is evidence that tbe number, dating from Aug. 11 or" 12, was much larger. ' By Sept. 13 the disease uad made considerable bead way, the official report for the week ending Saturday, the 21st, showing a yellow fever mortality of 128. During the; week ending tbe mti, the lever mortality dropped to vs. but it increased to 146 during the week ending Oct. 4. The first frosts came on the 6th and 7th inst, and that week the epidemic reached its climax, for during the seven days closing Saturday, the 11th inst., tbe fever mortality Increased to Jsau, its highest point. A rew davs later these frosts immediately sue ceeded by lighter ones slightly checked the progress of the disease; for the week's report ending Saturday, the lbtb, showed 252 deaths from the fever a decrease of 28, assuming tho previous week's reprot to be correct, though up to that time a large number, which should have been credited to yellow fever, was reported "unknown," owing to imperfections in the undertakers' returns. O ur opinion Is that instead of zoU for tbe week alluded to, the deaths from fever wero not less than 340, the total from all causes being 884, thus making the de crease 83, insteid of 28. On Monday, Tuesday and Friday morn ings of the past week there were black frosts, tbe last two of which made - ice, the mercury Friday morning falling-to 32 deg., the freezing poinr. Although tbe only im mediate euectr, or these heavy frosts nas been a slight increase in the death rate, ow ing to the sudden change to cool weather, we are still able to report another marked decrease in the total mortality. Duriog the week ending yesterday, (25th,) there were 162 deaths from yellow fever, against 252 last week a decrease of 90. Assuming the Howard Association reports to bo correct and they will be found so the fever Is now rapidly abating. The number; of new cases, as reported for the five days ending Jast night were, Tespetively, 54, 44, 39, 21 and 18 a rapid decrease in" -the 'aggregate. Hereafter the fever will develop only in those whose systems were & week ago filled with poison. We will hear of few new cases iu future, unless this poison be naraer to kill than any ever, before knoffn in yel low fever. Just now, the daily deaths about onset tbe daily list of new cases, leaving the con valescents to show the progress of tbe abatement. During the three days ending laat Eicht, nor Howard Association reports. eoavakscentsdlscbJrged, or ready for ucarge,were. respectively, 117, lou, Wf total 384, or a dally average of 128.

Out of near six hundred persons reported sick by the visitors of the Howard Association, there were but nineteen new cases in yes-, terday's report. The Odd Fellojys report only two new cases; and all the different visiting committees report those who are sick to be doing well. Besides this, tbe weather on Thursday and Friday was cold enough to Mil the growth of the fever, but yesterday it grew warm towards night, and after dark, we had a heavy, misty fog, almost a rain. If this is followed by an other cold spell we look confidently for a speedy abatement of the scourge. In the meantime let us work on and trust to God. Who alone can give 'us full and. final relief.

The warrant charged Frank Hambrick with having been drunk, and while in that condition indulging-in conduct of a char acter which our ordinance-makers have characterized as disorderly. Mr. Hambrick himself was not at all communicative on the subject, but a witness stated that, al though be would not want to say that Mr. Hambrick was positive drunk, he knew tbe latter had taken something which made him act funny. The court was in a mirth ful mood also, and played off a practical joke on the funny Mr. JHambrick by lining mm 90. An officer testified that James Nelson was observed trying to break into tho back window of a house; tbat upon arresting him, Nelson proved to be very salubrious, and indulged In language of a very abusive nature towards the officer, Mr. Nelson ad mitted the truth of the charges in the war rant, but explained ins conduct by saying he was so drnus tnat be bad "strayed oiu" When his case was disposed or, Nelson "strayed off" In the direction of the work house, under the kindly escort of a police man who happened to be going in that di rection. When tbe name ot Mary liumoeton was called, a policeman who is acquainted with the characteristics of tbat nowise fair but vory frail damsel, volunteered the informa tion tbat sue was down at tbe worKbousa too druok to appear in society, or even to receive company at ber apartments, un der these circumstances, tho couit, with an exhibition of gallantry highly commend able, postponed the trial ot her case until this morning. Jsq response being made when tbe name of 'Wash Wilson was called, Club Colburn. Esq. stepped forward In a hesitating man ner, but yet witn mo air 01 one leeung the weight and responsibility ot a grave public duty to be penormed, and stated to the court that be had just left the residence of Mr. Wilson, and that that gentleman was so drunk as to be confined to his bed, and he (Club Colburn, Esq.) would therefore suggest the propriety of postponing the trial of Mr. Wilson's case until such time as the court, under the circumstances, might deem appropriate. All he asked, continued Mr. Colburn, was "simple justice as between the city of Nashville, the party of the first part, and bis bosom friend, Mr. Wilson, the party of the second part. To be sure, if tbe court Insisted upon it, tbe presence of Mr. Wilson could, be secured, but in that case, it would b j absolutely necessary to bring his bed also, and as tbat article oi household furniture was of exceedingly gen erous dimensions, while the mahogany staircase leading to the police court-room was somewhat narrow, such a step would bo attended with considerable difficulty. The mjnd of the court instantly grasped the Balient points of the argument advanced by Mr. Colburn, as right bower for the absent (and dead drunR) Mr. Wilson, and ine de sired continuance of tbe case was. granted- Lou Christy Is not what you would call a handsome, or attractive woman, but yet she ij a person who would strike you at pneo tbat is If you said anything she didn't like.

Life Ahraptly TormI nated Domestic Tronbles Supposed toXfavo Been tho Caase. From the Dresden Democrat, Oct. 24. Rufus Boyd some years ago married a daughter of Wm. Lee in this county. His married life was an unhappy one. His wife was pure, .gentle and ccntidlng; he was wild, reckless and unprincipled. Ho was remonstrated With by his father-in-law and motber-ln-Iaw, on account of bis neglect and mistreatment of their daughter, and. for their trouble, Boyd attempted to reward them by shooting both .in bed. Shortly after this bis wife died, when he removed to Missouri where be married again. Rumor says that ho lived unhappily with his last wife, and rumor even goes solar as to allege that bis treatment had more or less to do with ber death. A few days ago he re moved with, his family, consisting of three little girls, back to Tennessee. He went to what Is known as tbe old Ablngton place In Obion county, nearMid dleburg or Mt. Pelia, wheie a nephew, W. G. Boyd, was living. The family were not at home at the time, and it Is reported that Mrs. Boyd requested her husband to notify him to find a stopping place somewhere else before she returned. This was last Wednesday or Thursday. Friday he was taken With a chill and was tenaeny watcnod all hight.by his little daughter, a child of twelve. Before day she laid down to take a little rest. In the morning her father was missing and. upon search being made he was found In the stsbla dead, having taken a olow line and tied it around a beam, placed his h&d in the loop, twi3ted himself up in it until it tightened around the neck, and then swung off of the door plate. Hfs body being bent and tbe ropo very close to the wall, prevented tbe rope from untwisting and he choked to death. Itwas snpposed co was driven to the sad act in a fit of desperation. Shunned ar.d avoided by his,, old friends and relatives, no home to go to, and ah outcast among chris tians, he concluded to seek oblivion in death. He was about 47 years old 3 City Hotel Block.
