Affair* In Iffv V?rk-(.Uy Nkw York. October 8.? The reform dele gates to the Democratic State Convention issue an address to the Democratic voters of I ho cit y. They rehearse the proceed ing of the late Convention at Rochester, claiming tint, they obtained a success over Tammany there, urge nil honest Democrats to nominate men of t he highest character lot intelligence and integrity for the Legis lature, having no doubt of their abilitv to elect them by overwhelming majorities, thus assuring the utter and s^fcedy down fall ot the Tammany ring; then some por tion of the stolen millions may he recov ered. They close hy saying: **Lot uh pledge ourselves to vindicate and redeem the honor ol Hie Democratic parti*, and u^e every means through the ballot-box and the court# to bring t he criminals who disgrace our party to condign punishment." The address is signed by the whole reform dele gation. The committee of seventy have prepared an address to the worUingmen, setting foith clearly and concisely the method by which! the ring robbed the city treasury and do- J cetvcd the workingmen into supporting them. The members of the committee say that an etVort is being made I o cast, i he bhtne and odium for thetalsoand forged vouchers upon tin* lute eountv auditor (Watson), who cannot replv ; but the committee have over whelming proofs against men now living, and at the proper time they will be forth coming, :uui men whom the community would hardly suspect will be found having la hand in the city treasury, and dividing i lie spoils. 31 r.

The most terrible ronll ^ration that ever occurred in this city broke out about 11 o'clock la>t night. The lire started in a large planing mill situated between Clinton and Canal and Van r>uren and Jackson streets. Tlie wind was blowing very fresh, tiud the flames spread wit li almost incredible rapidity, and in a tow minutes the entire structure was a mi-s of lire. The immediate vicinity was built up mainly with small wooden tene ment house* and two story buddiugs, oo cupied as groceries, saloons, ?&j. N A KUOW ESCAPES. The inmates of many of these houses, startled from slumber, "had barely time to rush out. in their scanty night attire, leav ing their household goods to destruction. In sever d instances children were hastily wrapped in blankets and quilts to break their fall, and thrown from second-story windows to tho ground. A SECOND FIKE. V.'h.-u the alarm sounded for this firean otberof iiniriiude was burning on Well* street, near Adams. Several engines wore nccessitily k-pt at work upon this lire.

A change in I lie wind, however, saved it. It contains thousands of bu-hcK of main of all kinds. A block of buildings on the north side of Van Huron street were dest roved. THE SCENE in i he vicinity <d the contl igratlon was in describable. "Half of the population of the ci'v seemed to be gathered there. Tugs in the liver were engiiged in towing to places of safety the vessels moored in the neigh borhood, while locomotives were hastily pulling our great numbers of cars standing on the truck in the flames.

Margaret Hadley, living on the north side ol .Jackson sttcet, being sud denly surrounded by flames, was unable to escape, ller remains, burned to cinders, were found this morning near her house.
