On Thursday morning, about a quarter j to 8 o'clock, our citizens wore aroused from their idutnbcm by tbc cry of fire and the ringing of belln, and to tbeir utter dismay found the ftiof of the Court House in a blaze. It WiUf Homo time before many bad reached the scone of destruction, ami by j tint tunc the devouring element had so progressed that none would venture in tho j second story to endeavor to rescue the | court records, valuable papers, itc., and : then, too, there were no 1 dders or water I at hand ; in one hour the entire fabric and contents were a mass of ruins. The loss is ! diflicult to estimate at this writing, (wo ' write on Thursday noon.) hut nOthim?short r f O of$100,000 will approximate to thcuiuouut. A You no Lady Pkaoiikao.?A Miss Bravo has been presented with a free paw j of indefinite duration, over one of the I'enfjylvunia railroads. Being nt home alone, she saw that a tree had fallen on a curve or the road on the opposite side of the rivc>, nnd that the ours, without warning, would inevitably bo thrown off into the river. She crossed in a skilF, and as the train approached, sucoccded in stopping it, thus | saving, in the opinion of those on hoard, nil the lives on tlio train. Instructions have boon given, whenever she travels on the train, to atop for her at such point as slic funis most convenient for reaching her home. A 1'ioirr.?.V large crowd collected at the corner of State and Market streets, on Saturday night, in consequence of a tight with knives between Frank l)ol P.mvn m?l . Vrnnk Burden, reputed io be Spaniards.? The conflict was n very earnest nne, and I ' Harden w?a cut sufficiently to bleed to a considerable extent. The outs nrc, howf orcr, incro flesh wounds, and no serious eonsequcncofl nrc likely to follow. The interfcrcnco of the polled, who arrested Del JJuweand confined hitu in the Guard House quieted the excitement. Jealousy is the alleged cause of the quarrel. f Charhntnn Mrrcuvy. - 'i m< ?

Information.?Tho washerwomen of Holland and Belgium, so proverbially dean, and who pet up their linen ho beautifully white, use refined borax as a I washing powder instead of soda, in the pro- i ]?ortion of a lariro handful of borax powder to about ten gallons of.boiling water; they save in soap nearly half. All the large washing establishments ndont tho same mode. For laecs, cainbr.es, Ac., an extra quantity of the powder in used, and for crinolines (required to bo made very stiff) a strong solution is necessary, liorax being j n neutral salt, does not in the slightest degree iujvire the texture of linen ; its effect is to soften the hardest water, and therefore it should he kept on every toilette table. ' To the taste it is rather sweet, is used j for cleaning the hair, is an excellent den- j pt trifiuo, and in hot countries is used in combination with tartaric ncid and bi-carhonate of soda ns a cooling beverage. (Jood tea cannot bo made'with bard water ; all water may be found Koft by adding a tcaspoonfull of botix powder to an ordinary sized kettle of water, in which it should boil. Thosaving in the quantity of to:) used will be nt least onc-titth. To give to black tea the flavor of green tea, add a single leaf from j uic uincn currant tree. Smart Boy.?"
