Fortunately, however, the flames were discovered in time to extinguish them without any dam age of consequence and without causing a general alarm. Economising. The gas-fixtures were being removed, yesterday morning, from all the various apartments of the Court House building ex cept the court-room and the Sheriffs office, and the latter, we understand,, will have to run the "merchine" at his own expense.
