He will be immediately reai out. Senate, as you know, was elected in 1868, when theKaow Nothing party was unborn, Tae Senate was Seward by a large majority. You have placed in your list of Kaow Nothing State Fenators who voted for Seward, the nam‘ of these memters:-—-Wm. H. Robertson, James C. Ho; kins, George Richards, Josiah B. Williams, and Abija! H. Walker. The only one of these who has ever ba- longed to the regular genuine Bark+r order ia Josiah B. Willlams. The other four are members of the bogu Seward order, which met at Schenectady, and passe ir solutions agaiast slavery. Thus you see that only o1 enuine Know Nothing Senator voted for Wm. H. Seward. Williarns was the only Know Notuing Senator who be longed to the regular Barker order who votel for Be- ward.

He said he was also a native of Philadephia, but that he had come to this city when he was very young, and had made it his permanent home.

The firemen came, and very soon ripped up the flooring on the basement over the furnace, and aoplied a siream which put anend to any more fire. La this instange the fire did not extend beyond the base- ment floor—-however, considerable alarm was manifested by the famll, also some of the ueighbors became uneasy lest their own premises should be jeopardised by the fire.
