We regret very much to learn of a dis astrouc fire which occurred this mornirg at Long Cretk, in Eecder&ounty. Aboa 2 o'clock the alarm was given when it was discovered that tbe largest and hand somest residence in the, town was on fire. It wus known as the Satchwwll houee and was owned by Messrs. Bell & Bro., who occupied one portion aod Mr. W. T ewtJi the othtr. Toe citizens turned -ut pronjp-ij but the fire had obtained B'ich tie day when the alarm was sound d ih.u it was found to be impossible to H1VH Mlf In-. rflr (T hniMinn I'lir.nrh U i if otle oi the citizens Messrs. Bell & Bro javed all of their furniture but Dir. New. ell lost everything, his wife and family barely escaping! in their night clothes without having had time to save even an outside garment. Indeed, Mrs. Newell and her little granddaughter made a very narrow escape from a fiery death. The fire is supposed to have been accidental, and to have originated in the dining room around the stove. There ancejon anything. was no msur- A Good Joke on SioinuDody. Because a man's hair is. tinged with gray or contains a silver lock here and there, there is no reason tbat be should always appear as sober a9 a Judge about to pass tbe death sentence upon a prison er. At least, that must have been tbe opinion of some of oar grave and reverend seigneurs on Change this morning when one, a younger member f the Produce Exchange.offered twenty-five cents to an other to black his shoes. The offer was immediately accepted bya third party ,who is a member of one of the oldest commis eion houses on the wharf, which counts its commission account away up among the thousands. Entering into the spirit of the joke another member of the Ex change stepped out and soon brought back a boy with a shoe box, blacking andbrusb. All that was needed now to perform the job was a little nerve and resolution on the part of the party who accepted the offer, and this was not lack ing, for taking a seat directly in front of his patron he commenced tbe job while all stood around to see tbe operation. The shoe blacker our grave and reverend Seigneur, must pardon us for the time be ing in designating him thus performed his contract Worthily, gave a good shine and got bis quarter amidst vociferous ap plause and laughter by all present. The money, bowever, went to the genuine boot black finally, who thought it a cap ital joke and an e&sy paying job for him. Mora'.
