City Intelligence, Fing.—Yesterday morning, about day light, a fire was discovered in the upper story of the building No. 2 in the court No. 29 Ann street, rear of Stoneall’s. The fiames were discovered by the pressmen in Richard’s printing office in the rear, who gave the alarm, andthe firemen, with their usual energy, confined the destruction to the room in which the fire originated. It was occupied by E. M. Townsend and F. Ritter, as a book-bindery. The ru- ling machine of Mr. Townsend was destroyed, as also con- siderable ready work. His loss was about $400; that of Mr. Ritter’s not so much. The second and third stories below were occupied by Mr. Austin and F. Dominge, jewelers, whose damage was trifling, being principally from water. The building belonged to Mr. Fuller, the gymnasium keeper, and was fully insured. We find the following article relativeto the matter in an evoning pa- per “ There is not ashadow of doubt that this fire was the work ofan incendiary, as Mr. Ritter informed our reporter that his place was carefully locked last evening, about half past six o’clock, and moreover there never was any fire used inthe part ofthe room were it evidently origina- ted. opinion is further strengthened by threats made by an individual some time since, who it would be well for the police to look after.” Such was not the case, as afire had been used in a fur- nace in the room all the day previous, for the purpose of heating their tools, and preparing bookbinders glue,which was left partly burning when the room was locked at night. Such isthe statement ofa journeyman in the em- ploy of Mr. Townsend who closed the premises at dark, and as there is no way of entering the building except through the stair door, which was found closed when the firemen fentered the premises, there is no doubt that the room took fire from the furnace, Loox Ovt.—Notes of the Citizen's Bank of Augusta, Me., altered to Citizen's Bank of Worcester, Mass., are again in circulation, Dealers must keep their eyes ‘ The snceess of Elssler at her farewell engagement at the SAMUEL WARD KING. city yesterday, was the most imposing sight we ever | Park has created a feeling of surprise here, as many anticipated By his s Exeellency’s Command et beheld.

Mr. Secor, knowing that the note had been altered from the broken Bank of Milling- ton, Md., immediately seized the rogue, and officer Braden landed him in the police office. He there stated that the note had been given him by Mr. Arnoux, tailor, in Fulton street, to get changed, but finally confessed to officer Welch that he received it from Emmeline Stevens, former- ly butcher Joe Morrie’ woman. Officer Welch immedi- ately went after her, when she confessed that she gave the note to Hamilton to get changed, and that she had obtain. ed it from a gentleman from the South who slept with her the night before. She was discharged by Justice Merritt, and Hamilton committed Tixvine Porter Cximmen.—Mr. Charles P. Lyman, one of the boarders at the Howard House, having miss severel articles of clothing, and $60in money, at different periods, from his room, within a few days, gave notice to the proprictor, who yesterday caught a colored porter employed in the house, named Henry W. Parnell, in the act of stealing from the pantaloons of Mr. Lyman, while they were hanging up in his room. Upon being arrested he confessed having taken $4 of the money that is missing but none was found in his ession. On search- ing his pockets, the following billet doux from his colored “Jadye love” was found, addressed to the “Rey, Mr, Parnell, Esq.
