Editorial Notes.
The geueral belief in well-informed circles is that the Boston fire will not affect insurance so seriously as did the Chicago conflagration, though the rates will be advanced on all risks taken in future. This advance, if not too great, will be reasonable.
The horse disease has reached Cincinnati, and is making its mark as it has done in the Eastern cities. It seems that the disease prevails as an epidemic only in the more popular cities, therefore there need be no .serious fears of the malady entertained in and about this city, yet it behooves owners of horaes to take the best care of them.
The very dignified Supreme Court of our sister State of Illinois, never knew the value of a blasted reputation until the Chicago Journal took them to task for the laxity with which thfey handled Chicago criminals. The honorable and high-toned gentlemen.then deliberated among themselves as to the monetary value of their characters, and decided that $300 would suffice, accordihgly they fined Mr. Chas. Wilson, the proprietor, $100 and Mr. "Schuman, the editor, $200.
The City Commissioners are stiil figuring on the proposed extension of South Fourth street. According to report a majority of the Board will insist on the city "payihsc heavy damages for opening the street
Journal.
&
It seems to us that South Fourth street should be extended. Let the property owners, who are to suetain damages and benefits, receive a*.just compensation, but let not the opening of the thoroughfare be longer postponed. Individuals should not be allowed to retard the growth of the city, whatever their positions in the community.

From the Danbury News.
How a Youthful Wretch Spoiled a Young Man's Cliances. A rather contemptible trick was plaj'ed on one of our young clerks Saturday night. He bought a cut-glass bottle of cologne, with a glass stopper and pink ribbon, to present to a young lady he is keeping company with, but on reaching thelbouse he felt a little embarrassed for fear there were members of the family present, and so left the beautiful gift on the stoop and passed in. The movement was perceived by a graceless brother of the young lady, who appropriated the cologne for his own use, and refilled the bottle with hartshorn from the family jar, ahd then hung round to observe the result. In a little while the young man slipped out on the stoop, and securing the splendid gift, slipped back again into the parlor, where, with a few appropriate words, he pressed it upon the blushing girl. Like a good and faithful daughter that she was she at one hurried into the presence of her mother, and the old lady was charmed. Tbey didn't put up scent stuff like that when she was a girl it was kept in a china teacup, aud it was held together by samples of all the family's hair. But she was very much pleased with it. She drew out the stopper, laid the beautiful petals of her nostrils over the aperture, and fetched a pull at the contents that fairly made them bubble. Then she laid the bottle down ancTpicked up a brass mounted fireshovel instead, and said she, as soon as she could say anything: "Where is that stinkin' brat And he, all unconscious of what had happened, was "in front of the mirror adjusting his necktie and smiling at himself. And here she found him, and said to him "Oh, you are laughing at the trick on an old woman, are you, you wall-eyed leper." And then she basted him one on the ear. And he, being by nature more eloquent with his legs than his tongue, hastened from there, howling like mad, and accompanied to the gate by that brass-mounted shovel. He says he would give everything on earth if he could shake off the impression that a mistake had been made.
Communicated to the Evansville Courier. Tlie Barnes' Will Case. The trial of this important case continued all of last week to yesterday at noon, in the Mt. Vernon Common Pleas Court. Great interest is manifested by our citizens in the result of the suit. There were from thirty to forty witnesses subpcened from our city, among whom were many of our most respected aud substantial citizens. The result of this suit, the amount, of which is the largest that has ever been involved in any action at law instituted in Southern Indiana, is looked for with the deepest interest by four millions of Spiritualists scattered over the United States, to say nothing of the interest exhibited by our immediate community.
In a pecuniary point of view, should the beneficiaries receive the benefit of Mr.. Barnes' munificent legacy by the courts sustaining the will, our city would be relieved of a heavy burden in the way if taxation in supporting and educating that class of poor children, who are not provided for by any Christian association or secret society, or fraternity.

Unlike Girard's will, it makes no distinction between male or female children, black or white, or those whose parents are either dead or alive. •The third section of the will has been greatly misunderstood by this community. The bequest is the most liberal, in many particulars, of any ever made in the United States. The object of the testator seems to have been to provide for the most destitute, or those not cared for by any other charitable institution. The trial will doubtless continue till the middle of this week. There are no less than ten prominent attorneys engaged in the suit.
AN ambitious youth in Charlestown, Mass., who has little money of his own, but a wealthy father, recently conceived a brilliant party, at which all the notables of the country should be present. He accordingly sent notes of invitation to distinguished men in all the States of the Union, including President Grant, .Secretary Boutwell, Charles Francis Adams, and Horace'Greeley, also inclosing his own photograph. His orders for liall decorations were liberal, amouuting to $12,000, flowers a'one to the amount of $5,000 being included. The owher of the hall refused to allow the use of the hall without receiving$S00 in advance the" young man's father refused to furnish the money, and the magnificent, party fell through. The old gentleman, however, has to spend a few hundreds in telegraphing to the invited guests not to come, instead' of several thousands for dapcing.

The Fire at Boston Totally Extinguished.
The Total Loss One Hundred Million.
A General Advance on Wool Anticipated.
Little Fear of a Financial Panic
The Newark Leather Business Seriously Affected.
&c. &c., &c.
From Boston.
BOSTON, NOV. 12.—The fire is now totally extinguished and full and correct estimates of losses and insurances are being gathered. It is generally believed that the total loss is about one hundred million though some place it higher. About-thirty millions is held by local insurance companies which will probably give a dividend of fifty cents on the dollar. Numerous failures are inevitable. The entire area burned over reaches sixty acres. The losses by the Hartford companies will exceed $2,000,000. A large number of thieves have been arrested and it is reported that two incendiaries have been captured.
The theatres are closed in this city. Last night we had no gas. Candles aud lamps were used in dwellings, hotels and newspaper offices. The streets are dark, and much apprehension is felt in consequence, as the city is full of roughs from other places. Seven hundred and fortyeight buildings in all have been burned.
BOSTON, NOV. 12.—It has been raining all night until 11 A. M. to-day. The morning is broke, dull and foggy. A considerable number of persons are on the streets. Many of the large buildings partially or wholly insured are guarded by special watchmen. The city had no gas last night. The military guarded every street along the water front. Immense piles of coal present a black appearance is still smoking. Visitors from many of the surrounding points have arrived.
BOSTON, NOV. 12.—The dripping rain since midnight still continues. The last spark of the fire has almost disappeared.
BOSTON, NOV. 12.—SBY count 932 firms were burned out, and overl2,000 persons were thrown out of employment, many of whom were girls, and nearly all employees dependent on situations for the support of themselves and families. These are the persons upon whom the loss falls most heavily. -'hi
From New York.
NEW YORK, NOV. 12.—The Manhattan Market was formally opened last evening. The building is the finest market in the city.
Contributions are already being received at the newspaper offices aud other places for the purpose of aiding the Boston sufferers.
A number of the city papers make the Boston fire an occasion for giving the public a lesson on the folly of erecting buildings on the Mansard style, pointing out its combustible and dangerous character in case of fire.
Father Burke's lectures in reply to Froude commences to-night. The first subject is "Norman Invasion."
It is believed in business circles here, that the destruction of the wool trade by the Boston fire, where the stock was estimated at 12,000,000 pounds will greatly enhance the value of stock now in this city and Philadelphia,and that a general advauceinthe price, both here and in London, this month. The fire will stagnate the wool business for some time. It is also believed that the fire will cause an immediate advance in the leather trade. The traius arriving here from Boston yesterday and last night, brought a number of merchants -and others, who had been sufferers by the fire.
The excitement at the hotels last night, was unabated. Merchants, bankers aud insurance men crowded the corridors, discussing the calamity ana its effects on business. Subscriptions will probably be opened for Boston, and the amount placed to the credit of some Boston bank in such a manner as the urgency of each individual case requires. Very little fear of a financial panic is now entertained.
NEW YORK, NOV. 12.—The Market Insurance Company, this city, is reported bankrupt, the .People's and Hope Insurance Companies, of .Worcester, are also reported bankrupt. %.

CHICAGO, NOV.' 12.—The .Common Council, last night, passed resolutions expressing -the deepest sympathy with Boston, and regretting that our own fire had left the city Treasury destitute of any means of voting money as a city. Our citizens individually, however, are coming up generously. Insurance agents are greatly excited, and those whose companies escaped loss are crowding the newspapers with advertisements. The feeling in financial circles is more hopeful than it was on the first news of the fire. Mayor Medill sent a message to the Common Council, last evening, recommending several measures for their consideration. Tbey have refererence first to the matter of providing more thorogh protection against fire.
The Mayor recommends the purchase of additional -and larger patent fire extinguishers and the building of cisterns to be fed from the river, to afford a certain supply of water then he calls attention to the inadequacy oft the police force to the work of protecting the city from crime, and recommends the appointment of a considerable number of additional policemen.

K. Hacalay, as President, have, to-day, issued a circular to the people of the United States, respecting the proposed celebration of the completion of one hundred years of American Independence, by an International exhibition of the arts, manufactures and products of the soil and mine, in Philadelphia, in 1S76.

From New Jersey.
NEWARK, NOV. 12,—The Boston fire will more seriously affect the business property of this city than first supposed. The leather dealers and harness and trunk makers feel the loss greatly, many having very large debts outstanding in Boston.
From Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, NOV. 12.—The horse disease increases. All the cars on Seventh and Ninth streets, and on the John street and Central Avenue routes were taken off this morning, on the other roads are about one-fifth of the regular number running, and others will probably be withdrawn this afternoon. Business is almost at a stand still. The horses first affected are recovering.
From Ohio.
COLUMBUS, NOV. 12.—Governor Noyes has been invited by Governor Smith, of Georgia, to meet with the Governors of other States, at Macon, to consult upon measures to unite the Mississippi river with the Atlantic ocean by a canal, so as to reduce the price of transportation.
A Straw Peddler Worth Half a Million. A New York paper says: Old Wight the straw man, is a character. For more than forty years he has peddled straw in this city and Brooklyn, to the poorer class of the population, to make straw beds. Sixty-five years of a° e, or thereabouts, he is still young and active. He has an honest, farmer-like look, and wears old and patched garments of an ancient fashion and appearance, but which, nevertheless, look comfortable and appropriate to the man. His overcoat is of blue cloth, with ^a double cape. He wears a straw hat winter and summer. His boots are fasteued together with thongs of leather, and were fashioned by himself. The soles of them are at least two inches thick, and have the appearance of having been worn with sundry repairs for at least ten years. His horse, which is blind of one eye, appears to be well cared for, and is probably the only horse in the city that has not had the prevailing disease. Whether he is too old, or has an immunity from contageous disease on account of his mode of life, it is difficult to say. •The, harness covering his horse's back is composed of small pieces of leather, rope and bits of chips.
Old Wight lives down in the meadows, foot of Tenth street, Brooklyn, in an old shanty-constructed by himself. He has acquired great riches by means of his industry and miserly habits.
4
His
property, composed of lots and shiall. houses erected on them, scattered all over Brooklyn, is variously estimated as worth between $300,000 to $500,000—all acquired by selling small bundles of rye and oat straw at five cents a bundle, and investing his gains in real estate in Brooklyn.
Love on the Wing.
A young man writes that he has fallen in love with a young lady with very light complexion, and beautiful dark blue eyes, and adds, I have made up my mind what I will do if I cannot get her, and asks what course he had better pursue. To whom we reply If the facts go against you in the matter of those beautiful blue eyes and light complexion, don't do anything rash. We remember a pair of blue eyes and light complexion, which we once thought indispensable to our future happinesss—but they dispensed themselves otherwise and we have lived to be thankful that that particular pair of blue eyes did not incline to beam kindly on U3. Twenty years of time, with the wisdom which comes with it, generally cures the sting o* such juvenile disappointments and makes one smile to think he ever imagined his happiaess depended on succesa in' that particular quarter. If you really think you must marry the girl, don't be in a hurry to let her know it, if you expet to succeed. Do not make yourself too cheag, if you wishto obtain one who is dear. Be manly, dignified, honorable and faithful, and acquire intelligence and success in your business or profession, and you can marry any one who would be the best for you, whatever the complexion or color of the eyes.
From the New York World, 7tli. Mr. Marble's Return.
Mr. Marble's editorial associates*,' presuming on the control they have exercised during his illness and absence, take the liberty of stating that he has returned to the city in restored health, and will rfesume to-morrow that efficient direction and supervision of these columns, to which the World has been chiefly indebted for its success as a newspaper. This will be a welcome announcement"to ourreaders and to Mr. Marble's troops of attached personal friends. His faithful lieutenants are too glad to restore to his more skillful hands their temporary trust and responsibility, and again.cooperate with him, in their accustomed aud more congenial way, in his always successful efforts to brighten and vivify the contents of this journal, and give edge and keenness to its discussions. The health of a leading journalist is of sufficient public concern, especially to its own readers, to justify this trespass on Mr. Marble's habitual reserve, and this announcement of his recovery and immediate resumption of his ordinary duties.
