The tire caught from a stovepipe.- The family were 'aroused about 1 o'clock to find the building in a blaze.

Mrs. Watson, sister. Miss Maggie Cowan, also a member of tlie family, occupied a room in the second story, and lost everything except the clothing she had on. The Rev. J. Rninple preached last SanC day on the theme bo popular with both the religious and secular press of to-day Hell, lie treated this subject inaschol larly and christian manner, and wound up the discourse by telling his hearers of the importance of knowing how to escape eternal puuislTnient.

It was accompanied with automaton performance and ventriloquism te keep the crowd amused while the money was flowing into his pocket. Then came another smart chap with a lot of jewelry, song books, and an imple ment for cutting class, sh?rpeuiug knives and scissors, &c. He was .also avery funny tallow, and pleased the people with a variety of songs and speeches while his goods brought him in the cash. The Bkugeus: The Tierger family gave an entertainment in Meroney's Opera House last Thursday night, to a large and appreciative audience.' This is 'the first time the Bergers have gotten an audience in this city. Four or tive yeais ago they came. here as t he Swiss Bell Ringers. The "Leon Brothers" were -here .at that time with something" like "the blondes" and of course the Bergers got no audience. The next time the Bergers came to our city, thu ground was covered with a deep rendering the weather too disagreeable for even men to venture out for pleasure. They were greeted this time, however, in good style and we hope they will stop with us again. - The entertainment was interesting and pleasing throughout. - The music by the orchestra was good, better than the Baud Tnusic, which was just above ordinary. Miss Anna T.Jerge.r-as-a cornet soloist is (among women) a good player. She lacks expression. Miss Etta Morgan, the saxophone soloist, executed the finest solo of the evening. x The Coleman sisters are young in the cause, but did their parts nicely.

Bkussels, Jan. 29. The Independence Beige has the following special from Vjeniia: "Austria, like other powers, c onsiders that the peace conditions require great modification as regards the aggran dizement of Servia and Montenegro and the retrocession of Bassarabia." Russia's demnnds.iu regard to indemni ty are deemed inadmissible because tend ing to. propitiate the occupation-of Bul garia. Austria will immediately send a note tothe powers ou these points. London, Jan. 29. A special to the Standard, dated Belgrade, Monday, says : "After a four day's battle, the Turks were defeated near Rutscarnik, by 40,000 Ser vians.

Among the thousands of refugees from Roumelia are many, armed Circassians. These have already plundered the towns and are flocking into Constantinople laden w ith booty. The government wishes to dis arm them and send them into Asia. Ap palling misery prevails from the Gulf of Salonica. The .whole coast is crowded witJi terrified Mohammedans seeking transportation across the straits. Hun dreds are perishing from cold, hunger and exhaustion, and no succor is possible un til the panic and confusion in the capital is abated. - SICKLY CHILDREN MAY BE RE stored to health and beauty by the use of ten cents' worth of Shriner's Indian Ver mifuge.

Champlin claims that his resignation as deputy collector of customs at New Orleans was caused by forgery, but the records show that he was regularly ousted by Anderson, aud Sher man holds that he has no power to re store him. It is represented that Ander son is disqualified and Copeland absent or sick. The Secretary- cannot' apooiut deputies unless upon the nomination of the collector, and, there being none, should both Anderson and Copeland fail the control of the custom house will pass to a special agent of the Treasury De partment. Special Agent Porter has de parted for New Orleans, with funds to pay employees aud to watch events. The Elections committee decided by a party vote to seat Wigginton, Democrat, from California.

House A bill was introduced, and referred, by McCook, of New York, for the relief of the tobacco trale. On motion of Ewing of Ohio, the Mat thews silver concurrent resolution was taken from the Speaker's table and pass ed by over two-thirds. Baker, of Indiana, moved to suspend the rules and adopt resolutions declaring that in the judgment of the House no sub- suiies iu money, oomis, public land en dowments, or by pledge of the public credit, should be granted or renewed by Congress to associations or corporations engaged in, or proposing to engage in, public or private enterprises, but that all appropriations ought to be limited to such amount and purposes only as shall hs im peratively demanded by tho public ser vice. Adopted by a tw-th.irds vote. THE POLL-TAX WAR. As a matter of interest just at this time, when so many persons are being hauled np for failure to list their poll taxes, we publish in full section 20, chapter 15o, Laws of 187G-'77, referring to this matter, as follows : "That County Commissioners shall in sert in the abstract of the tax list of each township the description and valuation of all property not given in, with the name of the person supposed to be liable for the taxes thereon, and the names of all per sons in each township liable for a poll tax', who failed to give themselves in, and shall charge all such persons with double the tax with which they would otherwise be chargeable, unless satisfactory excuse therefor be rendered; and all persons who are liable for a poll tax, aud shall wilfully fail to give themselves in, aud all persons who own property, and wilfully fail to list it within the time allowed, before the list taker and the county commissioners, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and, on conviction therefor, shall be fined not more that fifty dollars or imprisoned net more than thirty days." Section 21 provides that the County Commissioners shall have power to ex empt any person from the-payment of a poll tax on account of both poverty and infirmity. ' This latter section, we take it, gives the authorities discretionary power to exempt from prosecutiou those who are known to be unable to pay the tax. There is no question of the propriety of enforcing the law iu all cases where the parties are able to pay, but it will do the county no good to prosecute those from whom there is no prospect- of realizing the money, even though it may be justly due. The design of the law is to put funds into the county treasury, aud prosecution iu such cases as referred to will have just the opposite tendency. Wil. Star. COST OF THE NEZ PERCES WAR. Washington Star. The President has transmitted a state-, lnent, in response to a resolution of the Senate, showing the cost of tlie late Nez Perces war. The statement shows4hat the actual cost of the war was $931,329, of which $581,738 were expended for the transportation of troops and supplies. Accompanying this statement is a report from the commissary- of general subsis tence, which shows that the cost of sup plying the troops eugaged in the Nez Perces war in excess of supplying the same number of troops in peace was $2o, 470. Both Houses of the South Carolina Legislature have passed resolutions fix ing Tuesday next for the election of the circuit iud!re8 ousted by the decision of the Supreme Court. Judges Mackey and Townsend, two of the number, handed in their resignations to the Governor on Weduesday, which were accepted. All the old judges are candidates fur re-election. THE RETURNING BOARD AGAIN. Well No Est and Anderson Fierce on Hayes and the Party Threats of Un pleasant Disclosures Unless (lie Adminis tration Helps IhemTlie Story 'of a Scheme Which Was to Hare Overthrown ' Hayes and make Conkling Temporttry President Pending a Xeu Election, New Yokk, Jan. 23. A special from New Orleans savs : "The excitement in ' the returning board case has abated. In an interview Anderson stated that the reason they hid in the custom house was to gain time: that the jury was drawn to convict them, aud their only object was j to gain time. He iutimated pretty bit- terly that the effect of their treatment by the administration might lead to some thing unexpected, but refused to say what. In conversing with the prison . officials, however, the trio have expressed them selves to the effect that they are deserted by those whom they put in iower they will make disclosures exceedingly. The special from New Orleans con tinues: "Anderson, though dispirited, at times grows tierce and bitter. Search has been made everywhere to-day for Wells, but without effect. It is believed that he started on Saturday for Washing ton, ami that the custom house resistance was for the purpose of giving him time to reach Washington ; that when "there he will go to the President and urge their desperate condition and show him that unless he does something they will be lost. If he refuses, then a disclosure will be made of the whole fraud on the condi tion that the prosecutiou is stopped. It is said intimations have been had from certain leading Democrats that if the re turning board would show Hayes election to have been a fraud, their prosecutiou will cease." Maj. Burke was interviewed at New Orleans about the so-called electoral bar gain yesterday. He defended President Hayes and the Southern Democratic Con gressmen from the charges of party infi delity, aud said the people of Louisiana had expressed no favor for the electoral bill ; they regarded it as a means of let ting Mr. Tildeu down easy. They had been led to expect that Mr. Tilden and the Democratic party North would claim their lights and, if need be, enforce them. Regarding the counting of the vote, he said "the Tilden managers iu Washing ton had schemes for defeating the count iu tiie Senate and for holding a-uew elec tion under Conkling, but the party had never authorized them." "1 know, positively," said he, "that 'Senator Conkling had a speech prepared in favor of the throwing out of the vote of Louisiana, in which event he was to have been elected President of the United States pending the new election, which would have taken place a year afterward. Mr. Tiklen's friends were satisfied with this arrangement because thev thought with his wounds fresh bleeding he would have lio trouble in securing the Teino cratic nomination, and Senator Co'ikling -doubtless thought that with the control of the patronage he wnnld easily shelve Mr. Hayes and becoinw the Republican candidate. The caiisc which prevented an attempt at carrying this plan out was the distrust felt by Mr.. Conkliug's adher ents, on the Republican side, of the car-, pet bag Senators from the Southern States. They were all ready enough to slaughter Hayes, because they had become alarmed at some of, his utterances, and at Grant's declaration, but it was feared that instead of supporting Senator Conkling they might vote for Morton, as they probably would have done." New Oki.kans, Jan. 28. The Superior Criminal Court was crowded to-day when the three members of the returning board, Messrs. Anderson, Cassanave and Kenner, were brought to the bar. The counsel for T. C. Anderson tiled a motion for change of venue, alleging that he could not have a fair trial in this parish, the prejudice against him having increased iu the last few days. After the argument Judge Whitaker stated that the jury had been drawn in a most impartial manner, and was composed of honest, conscientious men, of unimpeachable character. What could the accused demand more The court had said Friday that it would not be trilled with, and considering the motion for a change of venue as an attempt at delay, the court denies the same. Th defence took a bill of exceptions. The Attorney General renewed the motiou for a severance in the trial of the accused. He said the State had wished to try the case of the State vs Wells first, but as lie had not come forjh he would move to call up the case of Thos. C. Anderson. Jude Cullom, of the counsel for the defence oivosed the motion for a severance, as it would only be detrimental to the accused, depriving them of their combined peremp tory challenges. The court granted the. motion for a severance, and the case of Thos. C. Anderson was then fixed for trial. Witnesses were called and the em panelling of the jury was proceeded with REGISTERED TOBACCO STAMPS. Green B. Raum, Commissioner of In ternal Revenue, has issued the following circular to Collectors : "Collectors are hereby informed that it has Ihhmi decided to prepare all registered stamps for tobacco in denominations' of ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty and sixty pounds; each coupon representing the tax upon oue pound of tobacco, so that where manufacturers desire so to do they cau cover any package containing not less than ten nor more than seventy poumls with one stamp and the coupons attach ed. The new stamps will be issned by this office as fast as supplies of the differ ent denominations of the old-issue stamps are exhausted. It is estimated that the stock on hand of stamps of tlie denomina tions of 15 pounds, 21 pounds, and 22 poumls will be exhausted from .sixty to ninety days." A CURfOUS DEATH t Atlanta Constitution, 18ih. - - -We had a talk with Mr. CV K. Maddux on yesterdayV concerning the sudden death of Mr. De Taum' In the lecture hall' on Thursdar night.!

Suddenly I noticed this gentle man, with whom I was not acquainted, beckoning to me with the forefinger of his right hand. I thought lie wanted to ask me some question, aud I said to him : "'What is it!' "He replied, Cease for awhile !' I stop ped, wondering what he meant, when he fell back against the seat and said, 'I be lieve I anTdying. "In a few hours, three hours, I think, he was dead. It was a curious death.
