LONDON, Sept. 20, 1869. ‘The Paris correspondence of the London Times says the Emperor's recovery has caused a lull in the flery debate which had begun between the party of the Empress Eugenie and the friends of Prince Napoleon. The rivalry already displayed by eacn faction gives, it says, a foretaste of what is in store for France when the death of the Emperor lets his family loose and gives up the State to their unseem- ly aiscorda, BELGIUM. Piim’s Mission to Napoleou—Public Opinion of Intervention in Cuba. BRUSSELS, Sept. 20, 1860. The Indépencence Belge thinks it improbable that General Prim would claim the good offices of Eng- land and France to prevent the recognition of the Cuban insurgents as belligerents by the United States. If he should make such a demand he certainly ‘Would receive & negative answer. But should the answer of either country be favorable, the interven- tion of @ third party would be sure to lessen the “chances of success for Spain, The Washington ad- ministration will follow a policy, based on the public opinion of the country, with prudence and consideration, Should that course lead to the recog- nition of the Cubans, no suggestion from Europe could have any eifect, ENGLAND.

It has been settled also, between the same two leading Powers, that there shall be no interference from this side between Spain and the United States on the subject matters of the Cuban revolution and American diplomacy in Madrid. General Sicklvs’? Notes—Failure of Prim’s Negotiations. Lonpon, Sept, 20, 1869. The London Post thia morning says it now appears that America has only made friendly representa- tions to the Madrid government in favor of the rea- sonable demands of the Cubans. It is probable that Napoleon suggested to the Regency that Spain should act considerately toward Ouba, and so dis- arm American influence, ‘The French government favors a reconciliatory policy at Madrid and non-intervention at Wash- ington.

Six thousand persons were present. George Henry Moore, member of Parliament for Mayo, Ireland, presided. Mr. Moore, on taking the chair, addressed the meeting. He condemned the Knglish government for the prolonged incarceration of political offenders; contrasted its conduct in this respect with that of other States in Europe and America, and concluded that England could only be compared with Russia. He hoped the British people would no longer tole- rate such excessive severity, and demanded the liberation of the prisoners a+ a matter of justice. it, Bradiaugh and others followed in the same strain. Resolutions urging the unconditional pardon of the Fenians were unanimously adopted. ‘The proceedings wero very enthusiastic. No dis- qutbance whatever occurred, IRELAND. !

WAVERLY, Sept. 20, 1869, Athat(-past seven o'clock this morning the ex- press train on the Pennsylvania and New York Rail- road, bound north, collided with the way train standing on the track at Atnens, Pa., four miles from this place.

Extonsive Fire Richmond—Ineffictoncy of the Fire Department—Excitement Among the Populace—Fears for the Safety of the City-The Conflagration Fiually Subdued. Ricuwonp, Sept. 20, 1869, About aeven o'clock this evening @ fire broke out in the very heart of the business portion of the city on Main street, between Thirteenth and Fourteenth, which has been burning for an hour and a half, and at present writing it seems to be merely getting under good headway. It had been burning for a quarter of an hour before any alarm was given by tne bells, and then it was a quarter of an hour more before the first hose carriage arrived and a atream was got on the flames. The steam engines, only two in number, were soon after on the ground, but the flames gained on them. The scene is close to that of tho late disastrous con- flagration, which it bids fair to exceed in destruc- tiveness, It originated in the basement of the crockery store of Gary, among the straw of old crates in which the crockery was packed, and if it had been taken in time, or had the city been sup- plied with a fire alarm, it could have been put out with a single stream and without any loss. At present the flames are spreading and it is impos- sible to say what the loss may be, George C. Gary & Co.'s store will be a total loss, They have $8,000 imsurance in the Atiantic Company, of New York. ‘The fire creates a great deal of excitement and thousands of people are gathered around the scene of conflagration. ‘the flames have burst forth in the centre of the square, which is a very valuable and important one, and seems to defy the efforts of the department to prevent their spread. SECOND DESPATCH. RicumonD, Sept. 20—9 P. Ma The city is lighted up and all the people of the city, men, women and children, seem to have congregated in the vicinity of the fire. Such’ a sight bas not been witnessed by them since the burning of Richmond on the memorable 34 of April, 1865. The glare of the flames, unimpeded by the efforts of the firemen, light up the scene, and, as the engines seem to be powerless, the people lose faith in them, and fear the pride of their city is doomed, ‘Tho fire is spreading and the telegraph office of the Western Union Company is in aanger. I write amid the excitement of the terrora that surround the wires over which this message must pass, doubt- ful if you will recetve the conclusion of the atory, for the office may be in ashes before moraing. Such a scene of excitement and dread 1s unusual in this quiet capital of the late Confederacy. ven the inaugurauion of Governor Walker to-morrow is not thought of in the presence of danger. The Governor is on the ground, animating by his presence the fire- men and reassuring the people. The fire has now caught the galvanized iron cor- nice of Kensey & Davis, on the corner of Thirteenth and Main streets, and it is not far to tho telegraph office. The scene is terrible but grand. As yet there appears to be no abatement, although a shout goes up, as I write, from the firemen, who seem to think that at last they have gained a victory over the arch enemy—the dread Fire King, the slayer of the great Barnum. It is half-past nine. The up town Ine gets @ stream on tl je corals of the corner building, which seems to rip off Whole sheets of fron and flame. For awnile the cornice waves defiantly in the air, and then, as the water pours into it, the writhing mass waves to and fro for a moment and comes down with a thundering sound, almost sbaki the solid earth as it falls, and fills the air with fire and fame. A hand engine has just come upon the ground. it is worked by citizens, the real chivs of Richmond, with their coats off, and they are doing splendid service. All Richmond ts pre- sent, and @ more excited population could not be conceived of, THIRD DESPATCH. RICHMOND, Sept, 20-10 P, M, It is ten o'clock, and thanks to the exertions of the citizens, who have done nobly, and to the fire department, which has done all that its very infe- rior organization permita, the fire is now uader con- trol. The flames were confined to the square in which the fire occurred. The excitement is subsid- ing and the people are returning to their homes. It 18 now understood that Gary has $25,000 insurance in New York and Virginia. ‘The fire is feared to have been the work of incendiarism. There can be no doubt of the inefficiency of the present fire sys- them of Richmond. The tire to-night has shown beyond question that the city is entirely at the mercy of incendiaries. The Loyal Lengue en the War Path—Assnssi- nation of Democrats In the South. RICHMOND, Sept. 20, 1869. Iam in receipt of the foliowing information from Jones county, N. C., which adjoins Lenoir, where the arrests of eighteen members of the Ku Klux Klan were recently made:— A few evenings since Mr. David Green, a respect- able citizen of Jones county, while crossing Chin- yepin creek, seven miles from Trenton and iess than a mile from his residence, on his way home, ‘was fired at by a party of men concealed in the un- dergrowih, Eleven buckshot took effect, seven in his left side and two in his head. He was taken up shortiy after he was shot and carried into a house near by, Where at last accounts he was dying. As Green was a democrat it is supposed that members of the Loyal League attempted his assassination. The Fire in the Dismal Swamp=—Three Ne-« sroes Burne RICHMOND, Sept. 20, 1869.
