TItl MKANINQ OF THE NEW ARMY ASSIQJIMENT StlKRIDAK's INSTRUCTIONS IN THE ttANDH OP GEN. SHERMAN. A Washington special to the Cincinnati Commercial of the 29th inst. gives the latest o 03 dal disclosures in regard to the assign aaent of Gen. P. H. Sheridan to Ner Or leans: The statement yesterday of Gen Sheridan to a newspaper representative in Chicago that he knew nothing of any pres ent intention of ordering him to New Or leans, was correct, and the1 statements in these dispatches, which Gen. Sheridan Beemed to have denied, were also correct, 'with one exception. Gen. Sheridan is to go to New Orleans, but the orders directing him to proceed there were not, as was stated, sent by telegraph. Tbey havo been tent by mail to Gen. Sheridan, through Gen. Sherman by the way of St. Louis, and should reach Oen. Sheridan to-morrow. All that Sheridan could have known on Saturday was what was communicated to bim in a brief dispatch from the war department on Saturday, which advised him that confidential instructions bad been seat to him through the general ot the army, at St. 'Louis, ind that he was to follow tlfee instructions to the very letter. There is no possible doubt as tö the correctness ot this information, as It is derived from tbo highest official sources. The president, on Friday last, promised certain Southern republicans that, la view of possible contingencies. Gen. Sheridan should be ordere 1 to New Orleans, with Instructions to arrivo there not much after tbo beginning of the new year. This promise of the president ' was fulfilled on Saturday, when the confidential instructions were mailed to Gon. Sheridan through Gen. Sherman, at St. Louis. The text ot the instructions is, of course, of an entirely personal and confidential nature, bat it is known that they direct Gen. Sheridan, immediately and without delay, to tree himself from all other business, and to proceed forthwith to the South and New Orleans, for the general purposes of observation and inspection, and when be arrives there he is to implicitly follow the private instructions which the general of the army will communicate to him. It is understood that theses-private in scructions at any time empower Gon. Sheridan, in his discretion, to take full command both of the -land and naval forces in Louisi ana and the South. The reason which has induced the president to designate Oen. Sheridan for this duty is contained in those words ci a man oovkrnmext official: "We want Gen. Sheridan there, so that it there is any necessity, and the wires should be cut, there will be a man of pluck and energy in the South who can be relied on." Tho most serious objection which has been urged against Emory is his lack of self-reliance, and his repeated calls upon the president dur'ng the Penn revo lution for instructions as to the minutest details ot local .. administrative action. It is stated upon authority that the only reason which can now induce a withdrawal of tbe letter orderiug Sheridan South is tho unexpected publicity already given to the fact that he was to be ordered there. One of the reasons which has induced the president not to assign Gen. Terry to command in Louisiana is tbe health of that officer. The instructions of Gen. Sheridan, it is understood, direct him to acquaint himself with the actual condition of affairs in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Texas, but to make Louisiana his present objective point. On arriving at New Orleans he is to cont8r with Major Merrill 'upon the actual conditiou of affairs In Louisiana outside ot the city of New Orleans. Major Merrill is the officer who arrested the perpetrators of the Cou6hatta massacre, and has a high reputation for energy, courage and fidelity among military men here. An officer of the government, a military man of high standing, says that Merrill, thus far, has been the only military man in the South who has been able to apprehend tbe situation. The nature of Gen. Sheridan's mission is similar to that of Gen. Grant's In 18Ö8, with tbe exception that Grant was designated to discover why there is not prosperity in the South, while Sheridan is to learn why there is not peace, it is due to uen. Sheridan to eay that while tbe subject of such a general political mission wa3 some time since suggested to bim. be earnest I v protested against being designated to any such position, and when last here urged the attorney-general that if ha carod anything for bim, to use his influence not to have him asct South. It seems to be the settled opin ion here on tbe part of some government oQloers that trouble is to be apprehended in Louisiana, and for this reason it has been thought that tbe experience of Sheridan in Aew Orleans, m 1S6U will be valuable now. Sheridan is to go there in tbe capacity ot lieutenant general, with the duplication of tbe orders issued to Gen. Emory in September last, during the Penn revolution, so that in the event of an outbreak of hostilities. there v in ba no need for any further com-J

municaiion witn Washington.

TBE ANSWER OF THEODORE TILTON TO THE ARTICLE OF MR. REECHKR IN THE CHRIS TIAN CNION A STINOINQ DENIAL OF THE CHAROES MADE. The New York Sun of the 26th Inst, gives the following card from Theodore Tilton addressed to the public concerning two trials, tbe one civil and the other criminal, involving his controversy with the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher: Mr. Baecber's pronunclamento in the Christian Union oi this week requires me to reply as follows: I. I have charged the Rev. Henry Ward Beecber with seduction and adultery. Thepe . charges I have already proved to the . full belief of three quartets of the people of tbisnation, including almost unanimously the legal profession, who, above all other classes, are most competent to weigh evidence. I now wait to repeat and solemnize this proof in a court of law. To this end two actions are pending in tho City Court of Brooklyn. Tnese are, first, a civil suit instituted by me against Mr. Beecher; . second, a criminal indictment procured by Mr. Beecher agaiust me. The first ot thrse causes, namely, miDe against him, is continually thwarted by his strange and unexampled' demand for a catalogue of the particular dates and places at which he committed his acts of adultery. What is the practical effort of this demand? The sexual lntttnacy between Mr. Beecher and Mrs. Tilton" extended (according to their own account of it) from the tall of 1KGS, tbroueh the whole of 186!, into tbe spring of 1870, overlapping three successive years; and yet Mr. Brecher, while publicly asking for what he calls the fullest investigation reqnests me to dwarf and Rhrivel my proof ot this prolonged criminality to two particular days, namelv, October 10 and 17, 1863; a limitation which bis counsel era willing to enlarge so as to include an entire autumnal month, during most ol which Mr. Beecher was absent from Brooklyn, sheltered in a ?afo alibi beyond an opportunity from crime. It H an affront to ethics and equity, and a miracle impossible, to limit Mr. Batcher's 14 months of adultery to two days. VNWILLINO TO APPEAR IN A FARCE. Accordingly I gave the public due notice that so far as the civil case was concerned (which is the only one controlled by me) I shall go into court on tbe first day when I am permitted to carry all my evidence with me, but never while I must leave nine-tenths of this evidence outside the door. In other words, to try Mr. Beecher for adultery, with the adnlterv carefully forbidden to be proved, is a farce at which I am not harlequin enough to play in these sad days. II. Meanwhile, since Mr.Beecher isseeking tobaflle my case against bim, I challenge him to end this by-plsy of strife over a bill of particulars by calling up bis case against me. This he has power to do at any moment. What is this case? Oil tbe 3d oi October last Mr. Beecber went before a grand fury in Brooklyn, and by bis own oath procured against me an indictment for libel. This indictment furnishes the best case to test the real issue between Mr Beecher and me. The real issue is not whether be shall pay ms a hundred thousand dollars for ruining my home (though not a penny of tM money would I accept, even if a hundred juries should mnltiply it to a million, but simply whether the Rev. Henry W ard Beecher is guilty ot seduction and adultery. And whatever complications may exist in my civil action against Mr. Beecher for damages, eliciting bis ceaseless demands for particulars, on the other hand, simplicity itself in not more simple than Mr. Beeeher's criminal case against me for libel if I have accused him falsely. In this criminal case I shall neither trouble him for particulars, nor drive him from the special term to the gen eral, nor drag him to AlbaDy to the Court of Appeals, nor compel bim to try his cause with a mere tithe of bis evidence, nor in any manner impose on him a gossamer's weight of difficulty in his BRINGING ME TO JUSTICE. Moreover, in the criminal case be will be relieved of his ill-omened fears of civil damages; he will have the attack instead of the defense; he will be entitled to the last word to the Jury; and if I have borne false witness against him. he will be ablo not only to prove me guilty, but to send me to tbe penitentiary. III. I am advised and believe that tbe cunning managers of Mr. Beecber's safety are seeking to contravene tho ends of justice by the following stratagem, to-wit : As ßoon as Mr. Beecher a counsel shall have restricted me so as to make inadmissible my proofs of bis fourteen months of adultery (thus cattine the very heart's core out of the civil suit), their plan then is to suddenly withdraw the criminal Indictment again; t me, which withdrawal is to m explained to tbe public by Mr. Beecber's chief champion and toilow-sufferer under a ehargo of seduction, tbe editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, as an act of unexampled magnanimity shown to mo by Mr. lieecber. Iiy this plan of operations 1 am to be prevented from trying Mr. Beeeher in the civil suit; Mr.Beecher is at the same time to be saved from the grim necessity of trying me under the criminal Indict meat; and so, by these two devices, Mr. Beecher is to escape trial altogether. I respectfully request all fair-minded persons to unite in determining that Mr. Beecher shall not haye the moral

support of tbe community; either in thus compelling me to rf strict mv proofs of his adulteries of 1868, 1S6L and 1870, to two days nor in his scheme of first procuring against me a criminal indictment tor temporary effect, and then withdrawing it from subsequent trial. THE PARTICULAR.'?. IV. Touching Mr. Beecber's renewed de

mands for impossible particulars, I here repeat in substance what my counsel presented before the court a fortnight ago, in prompt fulfillment of their pledge to supply at a half-bour's notice all tbe particulars which we possessed, ibey are these: That tbe Rev. Henry Ward Beecbor committed atts of adultery with Mrs. Elizabeth R. Tilton on tbe 10th and 17th cf October, 1868, and at Intervals thereafter till the spring of 1870; that the said acts were committed at 124 Columbia street and 174 Livingstoa street, in the city of Brooklyn; that confessions of these acts were made by Mrs. Tilton on the 3d ot July, 1870, and at other times; that similar confessions were made bv Mr. Beecher on the 30th ol December, 1870, and at other times; that the confessions of Mrs. Tilton were made to Mrs. Martha B. Bradshaw, Mrs. Emma R. Moulton, Mr. Francis D. Moulton, myself and others; that the confessions of Mr. Beecber were made to Mrand Mrs, Moulton, myself and others to eay nothlag ol the aeries of Mr. Beecber's letters, by which be makes plain confession of his guilt to all who can read and think. And I respectfully submit that the statement of particulars of which the 'oregoing la a digest, and which was laid by my counsel before the court and the' public many days ago, la sufficiently explicit to warrant me in DOW demanding that Mr. Beecber shall either be estopped by public opinion from inipotmg unheard of restrictions on my evidence in the civil case, or else that he shall forthwith begin his criminal prosecution. Furthermore, I ask all Just men to join with me in declaring that it Mr.Beecher shall still further clog and hamper the civil action on tbe one band, and at tbe same time shall withdraw the criminal prosecution on the other, thus using both these cases only to prevent me from submitting to a jury the general fact of his long continued adnltery, Mr. Beecher shall then be deemed to have confessed judgment, and must stand sell acknowledged aa guilty before tbe civilized WOriU. J HEODOR8 TILTON. Brooklyn, Dec. 25, 1874. HOW THEY DID IT. . THE WTTANPOTTE, KANSAS, ROBBERS THE TES TIMONY OF WITNESSES IN COURT. The Leavensworth Times of a late date gives tbe manner in which the recent railroad robbery in that state was consum mated: Tbe preliminary examination of Will. McDaniels, one of the Kans.3 Pacific train robbers, took place at Wyandotte Monday afternoon. Tbe first witness examined was John Cloonan, Bection foreman on the Kansas Pacific railroad : was working on ine roaa, wnen two masitea men roue op to me; asked where tbe rest of the sec tion hands were; said they were all nzht here with me; told us to throw down our tools, as tbey were going to rob the train; one of them poluted bis revolver at me, and said he did not want any of us to move, or he would blow our brains out; one of them asked me if I knew how to throw a trai a off; told hiui no, did not know anything about It; then be proposed to me to go back afier my tools and tear a rail out ot tbe track at the station; then I eald that was a poor way to stop a train, as it would throw many passengers in the ditch; that we could flag the train with a bat, cap or anything, and that tbey were sure to stop; I would guarantee it; in about two or three minutes one of them told us to coma out, they wanted us to put some rails across the track, and compelled us to do so; in tbe first place they wanted to know where tbeengiue stopped when flagged, bo as to put tbe rails far enough away, so that the engine would stop betöre it got there; oho of tbem pointed a rifle at tne andcompellod us to put two defective rails acrof s the track and down under the rails at one end; tbey then tinted one of the rifles at me, and told me they would kill me if I did not da wi.at they told me, and it I did they would not hurt me. He told us to put one end of the rail under the north side of the track, and lay tbe other end of it on top of tze south rail, aud the other under tbe south rail and on top of the north rail on tbe track: after thev went I took the obstruc tion off tbe track; tte train could not pass until they were taken oil; the men were all masked ; I could not describe any of them. VINT. E. BARNARD testified as follows: Am a fireman; saw several men there; some strangers were do ing one thing and some another; one of them bsd charge of me; these men were masked; I saw five masked men at first; I expect they were making arrangements to rob tho train; 1 can not describe tbo man that took me off tbe train and guarded me better than any of tbe rest; be was a man about five foot eleven or six feet high; not a very heavv man. but one that would weigh ISO pounds: bad a mask on; noticed in particular how be was shaved through the mask; be bad chin wbifkers; bad on a belt full of cartridges such as used for carbines in the army; he had a navy revolver In his right hand and one on his left hip, and a carbine; bad a hat on and a long coat; I saw five masked men; could not swear that tbey were all armed when he came in ; I saw them with arms in their hands afterward; tone man fctood at the left side of tbe engine wben I got off to tbe ground; three of tbem stood there when Murphy and I got off the engine; he took charge of me; I cau't swear positively that I have seen that man tince; my opinion is that I have: saw nim first in Kansas City, then in the Kansas City jail, then at tbe state line on tbo train, then in this court; tho defendant here is the man. . A. J. PULLEM testified: I reside four miles from here, between here and Muncie; was at home on the Stb, cutting out a fence row on the south end of the place; about 1 o'clock five men came riding up from towards the bridge, going toward Muncie; saw the same five men going back tbe same way they came, about 5 o'clock; ooe ci tbe men looked familiar, as if I bad known bim some place; they were armed with rifles, and pistols each side of tbem; as he W6nt up be was on tho side next to m$: aa they came back be was on the other side ot the road; I think I have seen one of them since (the one riding on the near side) in Kansas City and at Atchison ; have seen him in tbe court-room; that gentleman there, the defendant, is tbe one who rode on tbe Bide next me, going np. Here the case rested, and the defendant declined to offer any evidence. In default of bail, the mammoth sum of $S2,G00. the defendant was remanded to the custody of tbe sheriff of Douglass county, where he will remain untilJanTiarv 18. It has leaked out that Mr. David Sinton has at laet determined upon the plan for his nob!e gift to the city a monument for the old Fifth street market space, and an offsettto the Probasco fountain.

JESSY WREN'S SONU.

Mrs. Duddlngtsn'a poem In Harper's for Jan uary, j Ahl wben I was aehlH. at nhjht Palu kept me oft awake. But 1 lorgot It In desire To see the morning break. For then mv blemed children came In long, bright slanting rows, with wheels of light above thlr heads, And light all through their clothes. I uaed to det my little dolls Like belles I saw at night Flash from the steps of their carriage Into the door-ways bright. But I could never fashion robe Of that strange beamy white. And though I tried, could never make Those wondrous wheels of light. Down, down, through tbe golden weather Tbty bent like Kilver grain, Hajtrjg; Mnly,all together, "Ub, who la this lu pain?" And when I told them, they answered, "CV me play with u l" and came Bo clone 1 felt a strange delight Ha all my feeble utue. They looked at one another When i cried, 44 1 cn not play!" With gltmujr of their lily bands Folded my work away, And swept about me, and drew me Into tlittlr bono in, bright. Till their gentle warmth pasted through me, And oh, It made me light. And when my children laid me down. The old familiar pain. The crutch, the care, the heaviness, 1 took them again. But oh, the nmell of miles of flowers. Where flowers never grew: The tender oool of Ruminer showers, Thasoent of wood-land dew, Came in by the door and window ; And bird I could not aea, In time to faintly beating wings, . Hang iweeteet. &lra to me. And when my blessed children came, And took me up to slay. Lo! all tbe pin and heaviness Forever fell away. THK LOVE THAT IS "UOLDEN." . From Tinsley'a Magailne.

PENNSYLVANIA OUTLAWS. THEIR EXISTENCE IN THE OIL REGIONS OF THAT STATE RECENT ATROCIOUS MÖRDERS BEATEN ANDSU0T IN OPEN DAYLIGHT. The New York Herald of the 2Gth inst. gives still further Instances of the doings of the "Molly Maguires" in Pennsylvania: The Molly Maguire of Ireland and the Molly Maguire of Pennsylvania is not the tame person; in Irelanl it was tbe imposition of tbe landlord that raided his ire; here his anger burns at the slightest grievance, either real or imaginary, and causes him upon the least provoc-tion to use tbe pistol or the knife. The minister ot the Catholic Church may deny his existence because bis existence is independent of the church. He is a man excommunicated from the lakh, who would as soon assault a priest as an overseer. He is well represented by the man whom a Catbolio priest a tew years ago, upon his own evidence, cent to the penitentiary, and whose term of imprison-1 ment expires to-day. The Molly Maguire of the Schuylkill region is shrew and cunning and strategic. I am informed that he often obtains the influence of dare devils totally unknown to the overseers of tnese localities to do bis work. My informant went so far as to tell me bow a certain "boss" wRsssaulted unexpectedly by three desperadoes whom he had never seen before, and escaped death at their hands only by a miracle. I know another instance where a man was followed to Europe, and immediately upon his arrival at Liverpool was slain by a party who was to bim unknown. I do not wish the readers of the Herald to rely upn my own words for the truth of what I say, for I am a stranger in this neighborhood, and a stranger anywhere is liable to be misled or misinformed. I submit, therefore, below an interesting and graphic statement rendered to me to-day from Constable John J. Kitroher, a well known man in Schuylkill county, and one of tbe bravest and most daring officers this country ever naa. CONSTABLE KARCHER'S STATEMENT. "I know that tbe Molly Maguires exist among us aud can prove it beyond all ques tion from my own personal experience Coroner Hesser. buried yestesday, was as saulted last week and his body cut and hacked in tbe mo it terrible manner by par ties who will never be known. A day or two ago tbe chief burgess of Tomaqua was knocked down and beaten by unknown men, while it was only yesterday that John Leitenbureer was shot twice in opon day light by a man named Britt. Leitenbnrger met unit at iiecxeitsviiie, ana demanded his immediate, surrender. Britt swore that if Le'itenburger dared approach bim L would kill nim with the shotgun ho held primed and cocked in his band. Leitenburger bravely attemnted to fulfill his duty, when Britt discharged one of the barrels full at him. The first shot tore the victim's band and fearfully lacerated one of his arms. Without waiting to learn the effect of tbe first shot, Britt, with deliberate aim, fired tbe second, which took effect in Leitenburger's groin, causing him to fall. As he loll he fired with unsteady aim, and then, In open daylight, the wouldbe murderer made his escape. A warrant was at once issued for his arrest. Despite this surmise ot many, Britt did not flee the place; but, on the contrary, appeared a few hours later, armed with two revolvers ana a gun, nu ueueu the whole place to arrest him. He paraded tbe streets and walked up and down the railroad all day, but no one ventured to lay a hand on him. Officers Price and Darling went after him, but he was such a battery in himself that it would have been foolhardy for them under the circumstances to have at tempted bis arrest. I lelt here to catch bim this morning at 4 o'clock, but upon my arrival he bad cone, and, though I searched the town everywhere, I could not find him. During the last three years l have arrested mare than TWKNTT MURDERERS, and not one of them has been executed. I have seen numerous letters, addressed to different patties bv tbe Mollies, all of which were of the bloodless and tbe most brutal nature. Why, let me tell you a single case in point. There was a young man who lived in this neighborhood lormerly, by tbe name of Bradley ; along with a man earned Farrell he went one day to a funeral. Farr ell, after the servicea were over, invited Bradley home to supper with bim. and upon arriving at the house asked bim to take a chair at tbe table. Bradley did so, and Farrell, excusing himself, went up stairs. Presently he came down carrying a shot gun. Without one moment's warning Farrell discharged both barrels into Bradley's body, instanfly kill

THE PREACHING OF BENPIOO S1JCCT HIS REFORMATIONSOME STRANOK UTTERANCES FROM" A STRANGER 80CRCK. The London Standard gives an account of the preaching of a reformed prire fighter from which the fallowing extracts are taken: Bendlgo weuld say that two years ago he realy did die oi bis former Belf; and accord ine to bis own utterances yesterday, he is more astonished than anybody else can be at the apparition from outre tombe, "To think" he said In his evening autobiographical address, "that I, who 3d years ago won the champion's belt from Burt, and afterwards thrashed Ben Caunt, inoula be here In London to fight for Jesus Christi I am a brand plucked from the burning." In the sensational style of the advertisement, Bendlgo is a "miracle of mercy." Tha. "mlraole" U here used in its conventional rather than its theological ßense, we may learn from the authentic comment of the superintendent of the Cabman's Mission, tbe Rev. John Dupee, who, in introducing the reformed pugullist to the congregation at eaoh of the three revivalist nervines, innk ni him aa tv .greatest miracle of tbe nineteeth century." xu uem;riuing mis evening aervloe we are virtually dtscrlbing alL Ol course we shall not bind ourselves not to incorporate a feature or two from the ret. A hymn given out by Mr. Dupee came first, and it waa the same which bad done similar duty In tbe morning. In tbe prayer, also by tbe superintendent, one was struck with tbe mention of "Bendigo" by name. In the morning the same peculiarity was remarked, even tbe familiar form Bendie" being employed. We chronicle, without criticising, for which, where so much was excellent, we can find no heart. The Almighty was besought to "bless B-ndlgo, and grant that, as be had been valiant in the ring, and bad never been overthrown In tbe arena, so he might be unconquered in hi i Christian warfare." Although, of course, the prayer was thought extempore, there were short petitions, reminding of thesa in the Litany, which were a great improvement on tbe long winded paragraphs too often to be found in the public prayers of the dissenting pulpits of all denomlua--tions. Mr. Dupee and his brother, Mr. James Du Dee. of Notti and known tbere as the 4,01d Street Preacher," made some appn priata remarks uy mw way oi inirouucing their REFORMED TOWNSMAN, Bendlgo, to the congregation. The champion wa fcom there, it seetn,Octber 11,1811, so that ,1 not more than fcixty-three years of age. He has fought 21 putlltle encounters and, through drink, baa been 28 times in goal. Many efforts bad been mad 3 in vain to Induce bim to change bis mode of life. But about two years ago be waa induced to go and hear the eoiebrated converted collier, Richard Weaver, and from that time he became a reformed man. Bendigo, who, throughout all the three servioes, sat on the platform on the superintendent's right band, is a not unpleasant locking man. His face reminded us of more 'than one bishop. Nothing of tbe sneaking iznobleness ot a Hti?ging or a Uriah Heep is traceable In his features. Indeed it is inconceivable that a wearer ot the champion's belt should ever have been an utlerally hopeless man, wild and vicious as l is course may too long have been. Ho owns himself an utterly illiterate man. unable, as he deeply regrets, to read the Bible be has learned thus late to love. "I tried this very day," he said, "and read eight or nine letters, but could make nothirg of tbem." But be pro tests that he leeis noco tbe less tbe trutha of the gospel in hia heart, and is now quite happy, which he never was be!ore. 4,When I was fighting in the prize ring," be says, "little did I think I was fighting against Ood. But when I came to the cross, I was licked in the very firt round." Before tbe moral crisis, he speaks oi having experienced, be knew full well there was a Ood, for the stars in heaven taught him that. Once when he beard that infidels were men who did not believe in Ood, be declared aa be doubled bis fists significantly, that ' be would soon make tbem believe." God had now taken possession of bis heart, und he had found rest. "Whereas I was blind," be said, "now I see. I do not think myself a poor man. I live in a bouse at 2s. a week, and with Jesus Christ in that kousö I deem myself a gentleman." Bendigo's remarks evinced deep feeling and no choice was possible between the belief in his sincerity and the conviction that he is tbe most finished and artistic actor in tbe world. This is, we believe, Bendigo's first appearance in London since his ohange of life. But in his native town, Nottingham, and In the midland districts in general, many thousands have taken a deep intrest in the converted prizefighter. BATESVILLE BURNED UP. THE TOWN PRACTICALLY DESTROYED. Occasional Correspondence of the bentlnel. BATE3VILLE, Tec. 28, 1874. Again the fire demon has visited our town, and destroyed II. Schräder Co.'s furniture factory, tbe American Express office, J. F. Hammerle'a ' erocery, the stove and tbe ware store of J. H. Severinghous, and F. Meslemaker's gro-' eery and tbe fine residence of F. Steigelmy er. Tbe fire was discovered in tbe fourth story of the factory, used aa varnish room, and spread so rapidly that nothing could 1 saved. Three cars belonging to the I., C. & L. R. R. Co. were burned, aud It was with great difficulty that their depot and telegraph office was saved. H. Schräder & Co. estimate their loss at 100,000 and about $30,000 on outside buildings and cars. Batosvllle, we may say, is dead, iorocthour furniture manufactories have been destroyed in tbe short time of seven weeks, and most ot tbelnbabitants depended on them for a living, and many that logt their tools haveno means to start out again. Mr. nenrader resides in Cincinnati, to whom tho iiewa was telegraphed immediately. j. tr. UGLMI. That staunch radical and reformer of a few days and full of trouble, Gen.
