TheJ correspondent of the Knoxville CirqnWe.says that "thirteen Democratic ne wspapers," under the name of Paul, White fe'Co.. have in "red ink" asserted that tlie "Public Printers have charged about thre'e times as much for printing tlie Legislative Journals as the law allowed. Neither Mr. Paul nor Mr. White has any newspaper. How many and what papers the "Co." own we cannot say. Mr. White is not "a printer; "Mr. Faul Is; 'the "Co." maybe. "Mr. White and the "Co." were not exam ined by Messrs. Gibson and Baxter be fore tltc investigating committee. Mr. Paul was. On that examination Mr. Paul -.stated that the nouse Journal of 1SC0-70, 'according to his measurement, contained 1,710,550 ems, without counting any alter ations of copy, running over of forms, lost jUmeor other incidentals properly charged -as" composition and of winch no one can make a correct estimate except the man who prints tlie book. In the House Journal of Ibi 0-71 Mr. Paul esti mated 1,467,5C0 cms, making a difference between ids estimates and the accounts of the Public Printers of only about one hun dred and fifty dollars, without making to the printers those allowances which every primer icsunes uiai mey pay ior aim are entitled to, and which, when added to Mr' i (Paul's estimate, wouldincrease the accounts of the Public Printers. f Relative to the "open" work in the com position on tlie journals, Mr. Paul states he cannot'say whether tlie printer is justi- tied or not. Put tike journals show tliat such is the rule, and the evidence shows that it is a bad rule for the public printers, for this composition for which they only get sixty-seven and a half cents per thou sand costs them over seventy cents, nence the more of such composition, the worse for the public printers. Mr. Taiil further says: I desire to state that in estimating the amount f composition in the several books submitted to me I do not claim entire acciinirv. I have measured as carefully and as closeh each book as the limited time at my conn nuid would admit of, and believe 'that my climates will be found to repre- sent very n'arlv the amount of composition, paper, presswork actually contained in the volumes. I would leg to state also, in strict justice to tho public printers, that there are cjnsiderable expenses, attendant upon the printing of a book in the !ost regulated cstablisment, aside from the wasjes paid to employes, wliich have been suggested to this commit- tec, and -whirli enter into and make up .1 part of the cost of composition, and which it is Ihe custom of many printers to estimate and count as composition. This is pecu liarly the case in table and figure work and work rcHiuirin1' irreat accuracy in execution. such as reports of public otlicers and insti tutions, and law reiwrts. Such is the substance of "the' red ink" clrarje of the CltronirJf,x correspondent. crats in New York, and he would not allow any Republican to be pardoned now for fear it wotdd be used as a reason why the Dem ocrats should be jordoned hereafter. The committee urged that it was not just to per mit men improperly convicted to suffer to enable the President to stiffen up his own back foranothcr and different case, and the pirdon of Bowen being all ended. Aker man said he wanted it to be understood that was his affair; that Bowen liad Mr. Grant to promise it, and the President was not dis posed to carry it out, and held it back for a week, but finally allowed it to issue. A Contested Sent. There is going to be an animated contest over Delarge'sseat, which Bowen is contest ing; but from the position affairs have re cently assumed, there is very little doubt of ueiarge s mamtaming ins right to his seat Tlie project of running Bowen for Govern or has been abandoned.

Clnims Against the State More KmU cnl Corruption. Wasiunoto.v, Nov. 12. Messrs.

Cholera In Quarantine. The steamer Franklin from RiiHe Halifax is detained in quarantine with thirty cases of cholera. Later. It is ofiiciallv announced llml. the German steamer Franklin at-quarantine has forty cases of cholera aboard. There were twenty-eight deaths on the voyage. Nearly everybody aboard is mnm nr i ef fected. Most of the cases are serious and further deaths are probable. A rigid quar antine is enforced and every effort to alle viate their sufferinss. but care is taken to prevent the spread of the contagion. Mill loiter Details. The followins is a correct account of thn cholera at quarantine: The steamship Franklin, of the New Baltic Lloyd Compa ny, arrived Saturday night with a number 01 cases 01 cnoiera. blie sailed from Stet tin, Oct. 10, touching at Copenhagen on the 12th, when she had 22 cabin .mil Oil steerage passengers, and a crew of 07 men. When ten days out the first case of cholera made its appearance anions the steerage passengers, and when the steamer put into Halifax to obtain coal, there had been nearly one hundred cases of cholera and choleraic diarrhea, of which forty were fatal. Since leavim: Halifax one death occurred and to-day twelve patients suffering from cholera were sent to the West Bank Hos pital. The well passengers were also trans ferred to the United States steamer Dele ware, lately fitted up as a receivine shin bv the quarantine authorities. The Franklin after tho transfer of the passengers was or dered to the lower quarantine, where she will be thoroughly disinfected and detained until it is thouclit safe to leave her un to the city. AstoiiiHliuir Frauds In Brooklyn. The election frauds in Brooklyn are of the most astounding cliaracter.

Their reoit will be ready about Friday, when warrants win oe issued lor tlie uallot-stullers. Clinton Furbish, a member of tho Re publican General Committee of Brooklyn, lias commenced a $10,000 libel suit against John McDiarniad, a fellow-member, who charges Furbish, as Inspector of Elections, with counting him out for office in one of the wards. Henry C. Cooper, a clerk in the naval office, is held in $3,000 bail, charged with placing a cancelled stamp on the manifest of the ship Rhoderick Dhu. A Triangular Contested Election. Mayor Kalbfleisch professes to be satisfied that he obtained more honest votes than Powell or Booth, and will contest the right to office in the courts. He says if Powell takes the seat an election in the spring will be provided for, when he believed he would be elected. Tlie Southwestern Mails. C. F. Baldwin, special agent of the Tost Office Department, whose headquarters are at Mount Vernon, Ohio, lias been in this city for a few days, in consultation with a prominent railroad official, and has nearly perfected an arrangement by wliich the transportation of the mail from this city to Southwestern points will be very much fa cilitated, especially betw een here and Cin cinnati.

The west side of Market street, from the new building of D. T.

Burial cases jostled the re mains of wedding paraphernalia; here lay a pile of costly furniture covered withscorched bacon dragged from a neighboring provision house; there silks and calicos were pHed together against a tub of broken eggs sew ing machines and crates of cabbage were heaped together, and broken mirrors re flected the anxious countenances of the suf ferers trying .to sort out what was left of tneir property from the heterogeneous mass before them. It was indeed a sad sight, and one well calculated to dishearten men who had seen the city devastated by flood, liad recovered from this visitation only to be cast down again by the insolvency of the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad, and now saw the fruits of their labors swept away by fire just as brighter days were dawning.

GOV. BKOTVX ASD TAXES. From the Columbia Herald. The Appeal cannot more earnestly desire the relief of our people from the burdens of oppressive taxation than does Gov. Brown. He only wants taxation at a point tliat will maintain the State government and protect its credit its financial honor and integrity. Less the Appeal cannot ask. The lowest rate that will accomplish this end must subserve tho object both of his Excellency and our cotemporary of the Appeal. Gov. Brown feels, as all good citi zens who liave the welfare and prosperity of the State in view must feel, a laudable pride in upholding the honor and integrity of the State; he wants our State credit preserved, and preserved without unnecessarily bur dening and taxing our people, and so does every other good citizen. No man has more at heart the welfare of our people than Ids Excellency; and no man is further from un due influences, from anv ouarter. tliat those who were yesterday burned out, have to-day secured new places of business.where they will dispose of tlie remnant of their stock that was rescued from the flames, and will soon make a new start, in life, with hearts as undaunted as ever. THE HISTOllV OF THE FIRE. In the Times of Sunday we gave a brief sketch of the terrible calamity which has befallen our city, but were necessarily com jielled to omit all but the bare facts. To day we propose to give as full an account of the great fire as our reporters were able to uuiaui yesieruay. THE FIRE ORIGINATED in the jewelry store of W. F. Fischer &i Bro., on the southwest corner of ilarket and Elgthth streets. The store was a one story frame building, built about five years ago and a perfect tinder box. THE ALARM was first given about one o'clock Sunday morning by Mr. Clias. Ford, of. the St. Nicholas, who was on his way home at tho time. One ofthe proprietors of the Times was on liis way home at the tune the alarm was given and was near the corner of Mar ket and Ninth street when he heard the cry of fire. He hastened to the spot, arriving there about the same time with N. F. Toune, S. J. Lynch, Henry Deutcli, Bud. Ware, Lieutenant of Police Wilbur. When the party arrived: '0 FLAMES WERE VISIBLE. Oidy a smouldering glow iu a crack in the ceiling near tlie corner of the building, but in the side towards Eighth street, The party mentioned above at once broke in the door and were met by Mr. W. F. Fisher, who came out from his sleeping room in the rear of the building, in his night clothing, presenting a pistol and de manding '-what they meant." They soon pointed out the imminent danger and he hastened to assist them in extingishing the fire. With a hatchet, a niece of ceiling was cut out showing a blaze extending to the floor between the outside battens and the ceiling. A bucket of water was dashed into the aperture aud the flame was appa rently extinguished. In a few seconds it was seen, however, to be burning above the hole tliat had been cut. With the assist ance of others, Mr. Lynch then got upon the roof and saw the flames rapidly creep ing up between the two shells of the build ing and almost ready to burst out. He called for water, but none could be ob tained, and in a few more seconds the lire burst tlirougb the roof and soon became un controlable. Thus from the want of half a dozen buckets of water at the proper time and place, the city sustains a loss of over $100,000. PROGRESS OF THE FIRE. When it was seen tliat the fire was beyond control, every one commenced removing goods from the wooden buildings adjoining on the south. But before more than half the property coidd bo removed these build ings, or rather tinder boxes, were wrapped in flames. Meantime the church bells were sounding the alarm and a large crowd col lected, but with no organized fire depart ment and no recognized leader they could do little or nothing toward checking the lire. When the flames reached the store of II. N. Snyder Co., they were checked by the solid high brick wall of Clipinger's new build ing, but passed to the rear of it and seized SOUTH CAROLINA.

Had these caught fire the destruction of the whole block bounded by Market and Railroad streets lietween Sth and 'Mi would liave seemed inevitable. Maj. T.J. Carlile.with II. C. Evans T. H. Payne and others succeeded in removing tlie paints, etc., before the Clippenger building caught fire and then with tlie Chemical Fire Extinguisher with the A. and C. Railroad Company, kept the flames down, so that Kaylors' building was saved. While the fight against the fire was going on at tliis point, the devouring elements, as if enraged at tlie opposition pen, had lea-ed across Eighth street and attacked the large warehouse of D. Kirkpatrick Co.. whole sale liquor dealers aud rectifiers and of Ruble A: Height, dealers in agricultural im plements. Tlie proprietors and their friends fought the tire as long as possible, with wet blankets etc., but were soon compelled to succumb to the rain of firebrands and cind ers. Kirkpatrick Co. were carrying a very extensive stock ofline liquors, and had .111 extensive rectifying apparatus. Some forty or fifty barrels of liquor aud several thousand cigars were saved.but still we fear the loss was greater than the insurance. Ruble He'ght, who occupied the north half of the building, lost everything, intia ding a valuable horse in a stable at the rear of the building. The burning of this ware house was a terribly grand spectacle. The flames from the immense quantity of spirits stored within, blazed up many feet in the air and the intense heat of the burning al cohol created a vortex which drew in the surrounding air with tremendous force, al most like a whirlwind. Before the fearful heat thus engendered tlie adjoining buildings, all one and two story wooden shanties, vanished like leaves before the wind, their owners liaving scarce ly time to remove their property. The two-story brick building belonging to the Fort estate, scarcely checked the ad vance of the flames, which then seized upon the large frame building adjoining, erected by the government in 1804, as a Quartermaster's warehouse, and owned by R. Church, of Knoxville, but then occupied by Nassauer Roseutlial, nurt nollan and the Waterworks Company. About this dings occupied by Mrs. Fisher, Mr. Gold stein, Peeple Co., W. F. Fisher and E. G.

Knilrond Matter. The special train last Sunday on the Ten nessee and Pacific road, from Lebanon to this city, netted the handsome sum of $128. One coach was full of iersons from Leba non who came to hear Rev. Dr. Earle, the minister of the Baptist Church now con ducting a revival in this city. A coach and baggage car were crowded with colored folks of the benevolent society, who came to attend tlie funeral rites of a member of their order buried here Sunday.

It is a convenient arrangement for hotels and tnaieleis, and affords an excellent advertising medium to business men. The Washington city newspaper piaise the wisdom which laid out that city with such broad streets and avenues, as they are regarded as excellent preventives of the .spread.of fires, Traynor's drug store, which enabled tho fire to be checked at that point, after having made a dear sweep from Market street to Railroad avenue for some 400 feet. The following is a list of the losses by fire as near as we can ascertain them at present, commencing at the southernmost point to which the fire reached: D. T. Clippenger, stock of paints, oils, etc., in small frame building, destroyed, .and foundation of north wall of new build- ORIGIN OF THE FIKE. It is believed the fire was the work of an incendiary. Our hypothosis is that coal oil or some other inflamable fluid was injected in Fischer Bros, building, between the shells ofthe building and fired. The object of course was plunder. During the fire Col. Jos. Meo was addressing the crowd and urging them to go to work. While he was speaking two well dressed strangers were seen in the crowd, and one was heaid to say to the other, "He had better go home. He will have enough of his own business to attend to soon." In a few min utes a pile of shingles saturated with coal oil, was found blazing against the side of Mee Mills oil warehouse, just below the corner of Market and Sixth street. For tunately the fire was extinguished before any damage was done. Similar attempts to fire filestore of Divine Goodwin and the Montague block were also detected ui tune. The Mayor has offered a reward of $1,000 for the arrest of these scoundrels. It is probable that there is an organized incendiary gang operating in tms country. It may be that Chattanooga was expected to be another Chicago, and was fired for the same purpose. Perhaps the Cliicago Times' revelations about the International Society were true. INCIDENTS. Lew. Flemming, the popular clerk of the feu JMcliolas Hotel, took eighty feet of small hose Irom the hotel, attached it to the hy drant of the National Hotel and kept tlie small slianties in the rear of Kaylor's Hall from burning, thus assisting greatly in stopping the spread of the fire. Mr. Rosenbaum, of Rosenbaum Calm, when i; was feared the fire was getting pos session of Kaylor's Hall, shut his doors, packed the most valuable dry goods iu trunks, put the keys in his pocket, went outside, locked his doors, and waited till the danger should be imminent before mov ing. The fire did not reach them, neither were their goods damaged. Sensible. J. Long, furniture dealer has removed to the building formerly occupied by C. C. Seigfried, where he wdl sell off at cost. H. Schnider fc Co., and Nisbet Mc Glohon have removed to the Montague block. Moses Wells will furnish lime to those burnt out, who wish to rebuild, at 20 cents per bushel, 10 cents less than the market price. Probably as much property was stolen .13 was burned. Thieves held carnival Sunday morning. Two boats are missing at the wharf, supposed to have been used by thieves to cany off their plunder. We find it impossible to give credit to all who deserve it for their efforts at extin guishing tlie fire. We could not be ubiqui tous, and from what was told us yesterday, the whole credit of discovering and extin guishing the fire, is due to each of about three hundred distinguished citizens. The scenes of yesterday suggest their own comment, but we may have a few words to say about them to-morrow. break the windows and doors down. The citizens, many of whom had gathered upon the platform, endeavored to persuade the Andersons to desist and leave the place, but they declined to comply. Finally, T. G. Boyd, who it seems is a Justice of tlie Peace, succeeded in liaving them mount their horses and start, which they did as though they were going home.

At this juncture, the officers to whom tlie warrant for their arrest had been hand ed, together with young Snead approached tnem. The warrant liad found its way into Snead's hands. The officer before men tioned seemed to address Sam, who was yet on lus horse: while Snead said some thing to John and they both walked about eight, or perhaps ten steps to one side. when Snead attempted to inform John of his object to arrest him and to pull tlie war rant from his pocket at the same time.

This is a brief, and I think substantial his tory of this case.
