Last evening a fire originated in the drying and jappanning houe connected with the extensive pencil manufactory of E. Faber, on First Avenue, between 42d end 43d Streets. The building was one story of brick with a frame story above, and owing to the dryness turned very rapidly, and soon communicated to several piles of cedar logs. By good management the engines kept the flames from the manufactory building. This prevented a large destruction of property. The stock in the drying room is estimated at $2,500, and the damage to the cedar logs will not tali short ot S30.UOO. An insurance of i'3.(MK) only is ou this property, in out of town companies.

Secretarj Mcculloch's Report Forger Arrested Xamber of Voters : la Xew York A Heavy Failure, ic. New York, November 30. In the various wards of the city, yesterday, 2,887 voters were registered, which makes a total, with those registered 8t the beginning of the month, of 130.000. - Wm. H. Dodge, manufacturer of chronometers at No. 192 South Street, was arrested, yesterday, charged with forging the signature of William II. Webb for a check tor $2,803, payable in gold. ' ; The failure of the young and enter-' prising firm of Sherwin & Co. is accounted for on two theories. First, it was caused by the fierce rivalry of A. L. Stewart, who sold goods for lower prices than Messrs. Sherwin & Co. could buy them at. Another is, that the three weeks delay in refitting the old Maisou Doree was fatal; the goods they previously bought having fallen so much in that tims as to cripple their resources at the start. By the closing of the firm nearly 300 persons are thrown out of employment. Henry N. P. Meyer, for many years cashier for 3Iessrs. C. G. Gunthef & Sons, . died suddenly on Thursday nif ht. ' . ; . The Tribune's special says Secretary McCuiloch has finished his report, and copies will be sent to-morrow to the principal newspapers. The document, which is of considerable length, refers to the reports of the different Treasury Bureaus, drawing from them facts and figures in support of the views advocated in his own report, and elaborating upon them at length. McCuiloch alludes to his earlier reports, going back , to the time of his nomination; also to the reports of Secretaries Chandler and Fessenden in support of his views and of the policy of continuing to coutract at the rate of four railhon.3 per month, as provided by law. lie shows there were months when he could have contracted the , above amount, but refrained from doing so because he did not think it necessary or expedient. He takes strong ground against expansion, which, to use his own language, "would be ruin, and would lead to repudiation." The views of General Butler, Mr. Stevens and others, are commented on, and the tendency and results of the different finance schemes, if carried out, are enlarged upon and contrasted. He interprets the law in reference to the 5-20's as binding the country to their payment in coin, principal and interest, and believes that if the policy looking to their redemption in currency shall be adopted, the effect will be disastrous. He states that he has sufficient gold in the treasury to meet the demand on the Government and keep the market in check. He gives his reasons for not selling more gold and endeavoring to bring resumption in that way. The speculators would, to morrow, buy up all the gold he could offer, and then easily control the market, and make the premium higher than ever it has been. He believes that the Tribune' policy of resumption would lead to an immediate crash in business, which he hopes to avoid. He comments, at length, on the Internal Revenue Commissioner's Report, and gives it as his opinion that if the Internal Revenue Department and the Treasury had sole control ef the system, the taxes would be fully collected, and an end put to fraud and corruption. The report has been read at a Cabinet meeting, for the information and guidance of Mr. Johnson, who has some financial views to propose in his forthcoming message. New York, November 30. The Commercial' Washington special of the 30th ?-iys: lhe 1 resident s message is moderate and conciliatory in tone, but it argues that the Congressional plan of reconstruction is a failure, and that the country pronounced against it at the rail elections. Economy, retrenchment and uniform taxation, are recommended as a means to effect the restoration of specie payment. The Finance Committee will press to a vote the Fessenden Bill limiting the circulation ot JNorthern Banks and increasing it South. , Only filty-seven votes can be counted in the House in favor of impeachment. ---<>--- ST. LOUIS. ----- Spotted Tall Awaiting the Commissioners—He is Unwllling to go to Washington till Peace is Made— .Northern Indians Still Belligerent —Settlers' Train Attacked—Indians on the War Path. ----- ST. LOUIS. November 30.—A North Platte dispatch of the 27th says: Spotted Tail and three hundred of hiss people have been here since Saturday waiting for the Commissioners. Half a dozen Ogallallwas are here with Blue Horse. Spotted Tail says no more Indians will come in.. He says he is anxious to get their annuities and return to camp on Willow Creek. In his speech Spotted Tail said he was unwilling to go to Washington until peace is made with the Northern Indians and a treaty signed. He is willing to go to Phil. Kearney next Spring and sign a treaty with the Indians altogether.

Generals Harney and Sanborn and Indian Agent Beauvois and Jack Howland arrived to-night , by way of Cheyenne. Spotted Tail has since expressed his willingness to visit Washington if allowed to take five wives alone. General Harney and Colonel Lappan remain over to satisfy the clamor of the Indians for goods. The Northern Indians are still belligerant. On the 6th inst., a sutler's train, escorted by Lieut. Shirley and forty soldiers, was , attacked on Peueau Creek, twenty miles above Phil. Kearney, by Red Cloud's band. Lieut. Shirley was shot through the foot, and two men killed. The Indians ran off six wagons, and $20,000 worth of goods. They numbered three hundred. Some Crows were among them. At noon of the 15th inst., fourteen Indians, led by Big Bear's sons, came within two "miles of Fort Laramie, and ran off seventy head of horses and mules. The herders followed them with forty-five mules, accompanied by Capt. Well and a company of the Second Cavalry, but they were not overhauled. Twenty-seven mules were found on the trail, and some run through with spears. Three hundred Indians are on the war path, and it is supposed are awaiting for soldiers to come up, where they expected to decoy them into their trap. CINCINNATI.
