DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT WIL
Sixty BuIIdlnas Burned Los About
800,000.
Special to tbe Jouhmai.
.Rumors were afloat in the city yester
day morning that a fire had swept
through Wilmington on Sunday de
stroying an immense amount of prop
erty. It proved too true, as the following
special telegram in answer to an inquiry
from The Journal will show. Our sis
ter city baa the sympathy of every good
citizen of New Berne in this, her hour
of adversity:
Wilmington, N. C, Feb. 22.
' A disastrous fire swept through the
northwestern section of our city yester
day, destroying property estimated at
eigne nuuarea inousana uoiiars, upon
which there wan insurance to about half
that amount. The fire originated on
board the. steamer Bladen, which was
coming down the river, and when op
posite the city, she headed for the shore.
and coming in contact with the wharf
of th Clyde line steamers, ignited the
combustible material stored there, and
fanned by a high southwest wind which
was blowing, the names spread rapidly
and were soon beyond the control of
tbe firemen. The nre new northeast
wardly with terrific speed, burning tbe
steamer River Queen, the schooner
Lillie Holmes, the large new ware
houses of Messrs. Kerchner&Cald er Bros ,
the store houses and warehouses of
Messrs. Worth & Worth, Alex. Sprunt
&Son, J. W. Taylor's saw mill, the
champion compress, in which were
stored three thousand bales of cotton,
the large warehouses of the Wilming
ton, Columbia & Augusta and Wilming
ton & Weldon Railroad, the grist mill
of Mr. G. J. Boney, the mariners'
house, kept by Mrs. Bryson, the Cape
Fear flour mills, Front streejt M. E.
Church, offices of the Wilmington,
Columbia & Augusta and Wilmington
& Weldon Railroads, the residences of
Mrs. V. Bunting. Hon. George Davis,
Col. E. R. Brink, Mr. Sol. Bear, the
late Mr. Henry Nutt, besides many
other stores and dwellings. Embers
were carried by the force of the wind
nearly a mile and ignited buildings in
the northeasern section of the city .These
were wooden buildings, and in this
locality nineteen houses were destroyed.
In all, there were sixty buildings de
stroyed.
Many families are made uomeiessand
much suffering must necessarily ensue.
A large portion of the business portion
of the city is a mass of ruins and the
commerce of the city has received a
fearful blow, from which it will take a
long time to fully recoverer. Review.

In addition to tbe disastrous fire at
Wilmington wo learn from
the News and Observer that
the steamer Concord was burned
near Washington, N. C, with
472 bales of cotton on Saturday last.

- Congressional Work.
Senate. Feb. 9. Among the bills
introduced and appropriately referred
was one by Mr. Edmunds relative to the
eight hour law. lie said the bill re
lated to letter-carriers' hours of labor.
These hours seemed to be really in ex
cess of what human nature could en
dure. On motion of Mr. Eustis, the resolu
tion of inquiry heretofore offered by
him relating to the New Orleans sub
treasury and its treatment of the silver
dollar, was taken from the calendar.
Mr. Teller's amendment was agreed
to, extending the inquiry into the causes
of the defalcation alleged to haye oc
curred in the New Orleans sub-treasury
in connection with the handling of sil
ver dollars.
Mr. Eustis' resolution, thus amended.
was agreed to.
The Education bill was placed before
the Senate, and Mr. Evarts took the
floor in its advocacy. After paying a
glowing tribute to the philanthropy and
foresight of Mr. feabody in establish
ing the well Known Educational
Fund" for the South, Mr. Evarts said
that in his connection with the admin
istration of that fund he saw most en
couraging manifestations of the hunger
and thirst for knowledge on the part of
ignorant classes in the South, and
praiseworthy zeal on the part of the
intelligent classes of the South that edu
cation should become general. Mr.
Evarts had no misgivings as to the faith
ful application of the fund provided for
by tbe bill under consideration. He
thought the objections made to the
measure on constitutional grounds were
based on a narrow interpretation of the
constitution.
The debate was continued by Messrs.
Morgan, Ingalls. Wilson of Maryland,
Riddleberger, Hoar and Harris. The
debate then closed for the day.
Mr. Edmunds, from the Committee
on the Judiciary, reported favorably
bills to remove tbe political disabilities
of Alex. P. Stewart, of Mississippi;
Thomas L. Rosser, of Virginia, and
Edward l. w. Butler, of Missouri. The
bills were at oncenassad. Mr. Edmunds
remarking tnat one of the parties was
an aged gentleman, and desired before
leaving this world to be at peace with
tbe United States.
Mr. Beok said he did not know of any
smaller business for the Judiciary
Committee than to-be peddling out re
movals of disabilities in this way. -
Mr. Edmunds replied that all the
United States asked of any person be
fore relieving mm or tbe penalty im
posed on him by the constitution for
violating his ' oath and deserting the
constitution that he had sworn to sup
port and making war against the United
States, was that - he should present a
respectful petition showing that he was
ready to give up fighting tbe United
States add to pay the debts he owed.for
moneys received in bis official character.
If the Senator from Kentucky thought
that to be "peddling out '' removals
referred to, he was entitled to his opin
ion. '. J" ." , " -.' :;" - ; -.'- i
Mr. Beck replied that twelve years
ago the House of Representatives had
passed a bin removing all disabilities;
and .before that time the Senate had
done so. It did not happen both Houses
had done it at the same session, tie
insisted upon characterizing the present
mode as '.peddling out" and supposed
that in the present condition of the Sen
ate, nothing better could be expected.
At 5:15 the Senate went into execu
tive session, and at5:4Pp. m., adjourned
until Tuesday next. ' - "
House. Mr. Kelly, of Penn. , renewed
his request to have printed in the Reo
ord the review of the testimony in the
Fitz John Porter" case, prepared by
Judge Advocate lion.
Mr. Bragg, of Wis. , who bad previous
ly objected, said that as the battle was
over, .ne was in iavor or general am'
nesty, and would make no objection. :
The request was granted.
Mr. Wheeler, of Ala., asked leave to
have printed bis review of Judge Advo
cate Holt's review, but Mr. Steele, of
Ind.. obiected. -
The House went into committee of the
Whole on the piivate calendar. On the
first bill on the calendar Mr. Scott, of
Penn., offered a verbal amendment and
proceeded to deliver a speech on the
silver question. He prefaced his speech
by expressing his regret that the gentle
men representing his own political faith
bad seen proper to anticipate their party
'opponents in their criticisms of the first
Democratic President and the Secretary
of the Treasury who had occupied those
positions in . the past twenty-five years
toe reasons which be elaborated at con
siderable length. He favored bi-metal-lism
as the best policy for us to adhere
to at this time, and neither gold nor
silver monometallism, provided further
coinage of the standard silver dollar
could be regulated by requirements of
trade, and expressed the will of tbe
people, and not through operations of
an arbitrary law.
Mr. Geddes, of Ohio, protested against
a private bill day being consumed in
the discussion of the silver question.
He opposed the amendmeat offered by
Mr. Scott as a text for his speech that
tbe claim under consideration should be
paid in silver; contending that it was
not consistent for gold men to say that
bonds should be paid in gold and the
poor man's claim in silver. Mr, Geddes
then proceeded to speak upon the op
posite side of the silver question from
Mr. Scott, notwithstanding the efforts
of several members to confine the dis
cussion to the bill before the House.
When Mr. Geddes had concluded the
committee rose and the Houso passed a
dozen private bills.
On motion of Mr. Hammond, of Ga.,
it' was ordered that when the House ad
journ today it be to meet Tuesday next.
The House at 4:45 took a recess until
7:30, the evening session to bo for the
consideration of pension bills.
The House, in evening session, passed
44 pension bills and adjourned till Tues
day. Orders were issued today closing all
the executive departments on Monday
(Washington's birthday.)

assembled at Harper's schoolhouse to
witness the closing exercises of the

Mr. Maxwell's work showed itself in
the students to be efficient, both in the
theory and practice. No effort has been
spared on the part of the students for
the acquisition of knowledge. Some of
them deserve special mention for the
manner in which they appeared and

Master Chas. Maxwell, who delivered
the closing declamation, after school
closed.
