John son, Jr., on the corner of Sixth and Wal nut streets, made a narrow escape from destruction by fire on yesterday after noon.

L. Boatwright, on the south east corner of Fourth andOrange streets, Fifth fire district Capt J. M. McGowan discovered the fire and gave the alarm. He and others who were soon at hand commenced to remove the furniture.when the engines arrived and soon extinguish ed the fire. The fire was: discovered bursting through the roof at the north west corner pf the house, near one of the chimneys. It originated between the ceiling and the roof, and must have caught from a defective flue. The great est damage done to the property was by water. Capt. B.'s loss does not amount to very much, and is covered by insar ance. Many Fires but Little Damage The second alarm of fire sounded this morning was caused by the burning of the roof of an old dilapidated building, used as a blacksmith shop, en the corner of Front and Walnut streets, third fire district. Upon the arrival of the fire department it was ascertained that the stable attached to Mr. Alex Oldham's mill,on the west side of Front street,wai pn fire, also the sawdust on Walnut street and the grass in the Methodist Church grave yard was burning. The fires were oon extinguished and the en? gines were turned back In a minute or two- afterwards smoke was discovered"' boiling ' out from under the shingles of the tenement house next east of the blacksmith shop. The Little Giant threw a stream on the house and the fire, which waa bo t ween the ceiling and upstairs floor, was soon under control. The fires are saicTtcrf have originated from sparks from the chimney of the Cape Fear Flour and Grist Mills. On the west end of the ten ement "one end of a piece of weather boarding had slipped down about two inches, and it is supposed that a spark must have blown in and set fire to the building. The damage to the house was very light, and istheught to be covered by in surance by the owner,whe is represen ted in this city by Messrs. Cronly & Morris. The furniture in the house - is more or less damaged, en which there is no in surance. . . How to e your owm painter z Buy the IT. T.
