Blackbarn visited Bermuda ostensibly om o philaa- thropic miasion im connection with the yellow fever. ‘The evidence shows that he collected while there bed- ding and clothing taken from fever patients; that he purchaseé and infected now clothidg, which he packed tm trunks and left tw charge of partios, with orders to for- ward them to New York in the spring. One wihaees testified that Blackburn represented him- olf ase Confederate agent, whose mission was the de- stouction of the Northern masses. It was also shown that several persons connested with the rebel agency were Cognizant of these facta.

The train on the Ohio and Mississipp: road last night was robbed near North Bend, fourteen miles from the city, by @ gang of twenty guerillas. The safes of Adams’ Express Company were blown open by gunpowder and the contents taken. Passengers were relieved of their watches and money. The robbers escaped across the Fiver im skiff, | Extensiv: re im Jersey City. ERIE RAILWAY CAR MANUFACTORY BUBNED—LOSS ESTIMATED AT ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS—WORKMEN THROWN OUT OF BMPLOYMENT—PROBABLE INCENDIARISM. The Erie Railway car manufactory in Jersey City, situated near the Bergon tunnel, took fire at three o'clock yesterday morning, and was entirely destroyed, It com- prizedjiwo buildings—one four hundred and fifty feet long and eighty feet wide, and the other three hundred feet long and seventy five feet wide—and embraced what wore known as the car shop, whore the wood work of the cars was finished, a blacksmith shop, where the ordinary fron work was done, anda machine shop, in which tho running gear of the ears was manfactured. Five cars were standing in the shop whep the fire broke out, and three of them, unfinished, were burned up, while the others were seriously damaged; and the entire property in the buildings, including the tools of about two hundred and fifty workmen, worth from fifty tofour hundred dollars each, were destroyed or ren- dered comparatively valueless. The flames were first seen ba the engineer of a train that was on the way to Jersey City, and the attention of the watchmen employed at the building was drawn to the fact that it was on fire by the alarm whistle of the engineer. The machine shop was then in flames on the inside, and almost instantly they spread throughout the whole of that part of the building, and burst out on the . ‘The floor of the shop wax saturated with grease or oil used id the machinists, This accounts for the rapidi- ty with which the fire extended. A singular fact is that no fire is known to have been in the machine shop for about three weeks. All the buildings were of wood, and as the wind blew briskly m the direction of the machine shop towards the car and blacksmith shops, they also were in flames in the course of a few min- . ‘utes. The fire was a very large on irned with at florceness, and the country for round was luminated, At the distance of half a mile tho light was equal to that of bright day. Before any effective effort could be made to extinguish the flames the build- ea, gr? fallen. e stoppage of the manufacture of cars at this shop, which has produced as many as one hundred and twenty five a month of some kinds (particularly of coal cars), and sixty of all kinds, on the average, for the past year ang a half, will be, perhaps, a greatar loss to the com- pany than the sum of money involved in the fire. There are othor shops, however, and the Jersey City business will be transferred to Piermont. Tho loss to the mechanics, in present employment and particularly in tools, cannot be accurately stated. It is estimated that the tools cannot be replaced for Tess than twenty-five thousand dollars, At it two hundred of the men had property worth on the average about one hundred and fifty dollars each. The loss of the Erie Company, not far from one hun- dred thousand dollars, is partly insured, ‘The origin of the fire 1s not known. | It is understood, howaver, that the spark must have been communicated by a passing engine, or else that the fire was the work of an incendiary. Several men have recently been discharged from the manufactory, and they harbor the most bitter feelings against the ‘agents of the company by whom their discharge was effected. City Intellf, Foxrrat or Mason Dovema.—Major Emil Duysing, aged thirty-eight years, formerly Licutenant Votonel of the Forty-first New York Volunteers, and late of the Fiftoenth New York artillery regiment, died recently at Petersburg, Va., of wounds received in the battle of the Five Forks. He was one of the first who offered his ser- vices to the government and country of his adoption, ‘And they were more readily accepted, as he had not only received a thorongh military education, but seen active service in the Holstein war of 1848. He was a gentie- man by education and sentiment, and was by his comrades for his indomitable courage Kindness of heart. He was also dooply boloved by a large circle of friends, of which he was the centre, from his wit, humor and good nature.
