An alarm was sounded from the Central Guardhonse by officer Tucker, and the fre department was quickly on hand. The fire was first discovered by the watchman, and he, With others, made an attempt to enter the abies, but were deterred by two ferocious < inside. 1t is supposed that the fire origi- pated in the engine-room adjoining the stable. ‘The flames quickly spread to the main baild- ‘eg. In which was the bakery, eapplied with macbinery and a large stock of materia’, but httle of which (and thal-from the lower story) was saved. The apparatus was promptly at work, but were powerless to save the main butlarng, which was entirely destroyed. The James spread to the one.story building on the east side, owned by Mr. Tanssig, in which Mr. \ S. Brady bad « quantity of Property stored, snd that. too, was almost entirely destroy . A lew pictures were saved from this building, but & number of billiard tabie fixtures, gas i and bar-room furniture, worth about 31,500, on which there was po insurance, was destroyed. The borse and carriage bazaar of Messrs. W. L. Wall & Co. was damaged somewbar by the fire and the falling of the walls of the bakery, as also was the one- story building owned by Mr. W. H. Philp and formerly ceeupted by Jobn Farrell as a produce bouse. In the stable of Mr. Taussig were four valuable horses, which were burned to death. The business was managed for Mr. Taussig by Mr B. Katz, who had fourteen men employed, and it ts estimated that his loss, in- cluding mrchinery and stock, will be about 26.000, on which there is an insurance of SiH This fire occurring in the early part of the evening drew together a large crowd, and had the effect of thinning the andi- ence attending the performances at Wall's pera House, in the immediate vicinity. The pobce were or the ground in full torce under or Richards and Capt. Reid, and aided 10 stree While the fire was Im progress, but bad been extinguished in the one-story building eastof the bakery, a portion of *be east wall of the bakery fell, mashing in the ro »f the ene-story. Three members of steamer No. 2. were on the roof of the small house at the time, and went through with it to ound floor. There was great excitement is time, and the crowd made a rush to the “potto rescue them. They were gotout ina few moments and taken to the Central Giuard- house. where Drs. Woodbury and Keasby were in attendance. but found that none of them were injured beyond a tew bruises. We learn since the above was written that the loss of Mr. Taussig (he being absent from the city) is estimaied by some of his employees atfrom eight to ten thousand dollars, nearly cevered by insurance in various companies. ‘The main building was the property of Jacob E. Lyons. of New York, and was in- sared in the People’s Company, Worcester, ass. for $2.50¢. The total loss is variously estimated at from $15,000 to $20,000.

He deemed it a mat. ter of simple justice that propriation should be made. The amount named was in accordance with the estimate of the city sur- ¥eyor, and the act of May 5, 1*66, required the General Government to bear its share of bur- dens for improvement im the vicinity of its own property. Mr Washburne said the explanation did no* fully satisty him. He believed the appropri- ation to be erroneous, and it was founded ply upon the report of an officer who nad nevy- er been authorized by this House. in the further course of debate, Mr. Dawes, of Mass., referred to Mr. Ingersoll as the keep- et of the morals of the people of this District, by virtue of Bis position as chairman ef the committee on affairs of the district. Mr. Ingersoll said he preferred to be excused toacertun extent. He was perfectly willing to tage charge of the morals of the people ot the District durimg the recess, but met while Corgiess was in session. [Laughter.) The tuotion to reconsider was lost. The bill was then passed as amended. The Principal items are as follow: For public Printing, €60,000; paper for public printing, 450,000; for fencing the grounds south of the ‘Treasury building and President’s mansion, $15,000, for repairs and preservation of public buildings, $25,0.0; for facilitating communica- tion between the Atlantic and Pacitic States, 340.000; for the Metropolitan Police force, $95,564 97; for Department of State, to supply = deficiency im expenses for foreign inter- course, $250,000, aie A Was8INGTONIAN CoMPLINENTED.—Lieu- tenant George A.
