The fire originated in the Fairplay Hönse, and spread rapidly in every direotiou. AW tho stores, the printing office, United States laud of¬ fice, post office, express office, hotels and other business places, with two or three exceptions, were burued. Many lost everything, except the clothes on their persons; Much suffering will re¬ sult, as the season is too far advanced for rebuilding, and the weather is al¬ ready extremely cold. George M. Randall, Episcopal Bishop of Colorado, New Mexico and, Wyo¬ ming, died this morning, of pneumonia. Soranton, September 28..The bodies of Mrs. O'Mara; aged sixty-five, and her daughter, aged thirty, were found near Montrose Station, on the Delaware, Lackawana .and Western Railway, this morning, but not mangled by tho trains in any way. A coroner's jury elicited sufficient evidence to warrant the belief -that they were murdered and placed on the traok by Dauiel O'Mara, the old lady's Son, add his hired man, named Irving. Daniel O'Mara inherited some property, on condition that he would support the mother and daughter, the latter of whom was partially blind from her birth. The supposition is, that Daniel killed them to be relieved of the burden of supporting them. He and Irving.nre both held to answer. New^York, September 28..At Pros¬ pect 'Park, yostenlny, there were two races. The first race was for $1,000, mile heats.

The How¬ ard Association have opened'an orphan asylum, which feeds nearly two-thirds of the population. The fever, beyond question; the doctors say, was imported from Cuba. An appeal for relief from President L. E. Simmons, says 700 are sick. The peculiar character of the disease requires skillful attention and nursing. Hundreds are without means dPr employment. The destitution is as heart-reading as the disease itself. We fee> that the great publio heart will re¬ spond to this appeal, oxtoited by the most dire necessity. Our own resources are nearly exhausted, tho wealthy are broken dawn, and the poor are threat- * ened with actual starvation; the sick and dying are about to be deprived of the commonest comfort humanity can offer them. We appeal not to our fel- low -oo tin try men, but to our fellow-mon, for aid. -.j Hanover, N. H., September 30 .

The citation was granted, and made returnable ou the 7th of October. The banks aud banking houses asso¬ ciated to do nothing more than to cer¬ tify oheoks, do but little business, while those not iu the association have largely increased their busiuess, paying all ohecks upon them as usual.

Ootl 0 f Ravagps of thb Yellow Fbveb in Memphis and ShrevsronT..Private ad* vices and the letters of correspondents from Memphis and Surevoport give a far mere terrible accuoui of Vüc ravagvö of the yellow fever in those places than oan be obtained from the meagre tele¬ graphic detain. In Memphis, the disease first made its appeurunce iu a locality, reeking with filth aud degraded humanity, kuowu as .'Happy Hollow." Thu populatiou of that place before the fever decimated them numbered, perhups, 1,000 souls, and was composed of uegroes und a low class of Irish. The district is situated on the river bank, and the habitations conerot of rude hovels and shantirs, iu which goats and pigs struggled for the mastery of the place with their owners. Por sevend days previous to tho 15th nit., the fever had been creating havoc in "Happy Hollow," although the fact was not generally known. On the night of the 13th, tho presence of the pestilence was fust made known pnblicly, and on the next moreiug, (Sunday,) the Board of Health officially declared its exist¬ ence iu tho city. Up to Saturday night, thirty-uiue deaths, it was announced, had occurred iu aud about "Huppy Hol¬ low." On Suuday, tho death-roll was augmeuted by fourteen deaths which were reported, while of many others no notiticutiou was given. Many bodies, it is said, were thrown into the river. The tidings of Sunday produced a wide-1 Npread commotion in the city, which almost resembled a panic. People hur¬ riedly p..eked up their clothing and left by boat and traiu. The streets were filled with hacks, either bearing away the score« of refugees or doing service in funeral traius. Ou Tuesday, tweuty more deaths occurred, although the tele- graph reported a smaller number, aud ou Wednesday the death list footed up !seventeen, making, with those previous¬ ly reported, ninety deaths. In the meantime, the people.those who could conveuientiy get away.were basteniug 'from the cüy iu crowds, and w hen, ou Friday, the 10th, services were heid iu [the leading Protestnot churches, most of the Jburcb-goers were found to have left the town. Ou that day, the princi¬ pal streets of the city were deserted and wore fl mournful lo«d;, as, iu obedieuce lo the Mayor's proclamation, many td the places of business were closed. For the twenty-four hours ending at 0 o'clock, ou last Friday night, the deaths from fever numbered twenty-two. Tut pestilence had made its way from "Hap¬ py Hollow" aud "Pinch," where it had previously prevailed, and bud, spread over every part of tLe city and iu the -iuburbs. Shelby, a fashionable .«treet, had Hi victims us well as "Happy Hol¬ low." Hourly upphcatio^-s were made to the Howard Association for nurses, but in the mejority of cases, although over eighty were iu constant attendance upon the sick, this needed relief could not be obtained. Tho large wages of twelve dollars per day were offered for nurses, but without avail. The regular pay for permanent nurses is thirty-five j dollars per week, with board and travel- jiug expenses paid. A correspondent who visited "Happy Hollow" and j "Pinch," saw at least tweuty fever patients in the tbror.s or dissolution. In one t-hauty could be seen tlv« ghastly ! spectacle of the father of the family (an j Irishmau) sitting .dead iu his chair, with his head fallen upon his breast, while on ia rude bed near by lay his wife dying. Two girls, daughters of the couple, were also sick in tho same room. All four died during the night, aud were buried in the Potter's Field. Iu othtT shan¬ ties, three bodies ready for onriul were I found, in others, one or two, aud iti others »tili, whoie families were either j dead or dying. The Board of Health vainly endeavored, by two or three de¬ vices, to stay the pestilence. They turued the water from tho plugs into the dirty gutters, aud for two or three nights in tncoessioo, the gaa from the street lamps was permitted to escape nil night as a disinfectant. By Saturday moi l ¬ ing last, a number of the streets pre¬ sented a funereai appearance, a majority of the houses occupied by the poorer classes being closed, and nearly tili the corner grocer;. ; &t.d meat-shops being shut up. Pasifcugei :- on /. Shreveport steamer, which reached New Oilcans on the 17th, 'describe the pestilence ami destitution i in that town us frightful beyond all tele¬ graphed reports. Fully ouc-hulf Of the 5.ÜUU or 15,000 inhabitants had fled in every direction, many of them only t«> die ou retching a place of apparent refuge. The sickness was the Mexican vomito, au.I had been brought to the town by the Trans-Atlantic Circus, u strolling cfjnpatiy from Vera Cruz, which hud traveled along the line of the Texas PaciÜc Railway, ami had left the seeds of the contagion »long their route. Two other causes, in the opinion of the citizens, aided to intensify the malignant land fatal character of the pestilence, and these were tho unhealthy condition of the towu, arising from the removal of the Bad River raft aud the infected atmosphere, caused by tho stench of dead cattle upon a sunken steamboat, tho Ruby, which lies in the river near tho towu. While the circus was iu Shreveport several of the member died of the disease, and after it left others of tho compauy who remained also pe¬ rished. So fatal id the fever that but few who uro attacked recover. Three days is generally the longest limit of the sickuess, and many die iu forty-eight hours' time. Tue poorer classes were the first to suffer, but it has now spread through all ranks of society, aud many prominent people have died. In some cases whole families have been aw^pt away. The first case of vomito occur red on August 30, wheu a Mrs. Stouer I died; then a gentleman who had nursed her wus prostrated and died in bis turn. I Following these were the cases of th.ee ! men who came tb Shreveport from the raft in tho Red River, whero they had jbeen working. They were all three taken sick with the vomito and died. Thea« deaths caused a pafiio, and the deathi followed thereafter with fright¬ ful rapidity. The negroes bad gene¬ rally escaped the pestilence, but the qondfuuu element had suffcfed. 'The town, with its deserted streets, wears a gloomy appearance, and so many have gone away that there are barely enongh left to bury the dead. The blacks are frightened and demoralized, and it is difficult to hire them to nurse the pa¬ tients. As a general rule, the digging of the graves in performed by the oiu men of the town.

f Ravagps of thb Yellow Fbveb inMemphis and ShrevsronT..Private ad*vices and the letters of correspondentsfrom Memphis and Surevoport give afar mere terrible accuoui of Vüc ravagvöof the yellow fever in those places thanoan be obtained from the meagre tele¬graphic detain.In Memphis, the disease first made its

appeurunce iu a locality, reeking withfilth aud degraded humanity, kuowu as.'Happy Hollow." Thu populatiou ofthat place before the fever decimatedthem numbered, perhups, 1,000 souls,and was composed of uegroes und a lowclass of Irish. The district is situatedon the river bank, and the habitationsconerot of rude hovels and shantirs, iuwhich goats and pigs struggled for themastery of the place with their owners.Por sevend days previous to tho 15th nit.,the fever had been creating havoc in"Happy Hollow," although the fact wasnot generally known. On the night ofthe 13th, tho presence of the pestilencewas fust made known pnblicly, and onthe next moreiug, (Sunday,) the Boardof Health officially declared its exist¬ence iu tho city. Up to Saturday night,thirty-uiue deaths, it was announced,had occurred iu aud about "Huppy Hol¬low." On Suuday, tho death-roll wasaugmeuted by fourteen deaths whichwere reported, while of many others nonotiticutiou was given. Many bodies, itis said, were thrown into the river.The tidings of Sunday produced a wide-1Npread commotion in the city, whichalmost resembled a panic. People hur¬riedly p..eked up their clothing and leftby boat and traiu. The streets werefilled with hacks, either bearing awaythe score« of refugees or doing servicein funeral traius. Ou Tuesday, tweutymore deaths occurred, although the tele-graph reported a smaller number, audou Wednesday the death list footed up!seventeen, making, with those previous¬ly reported, ninety deaths. In themeantime, the people.those who couldconveuientiy get away.were basteniug'from the cüy iu crowds, and w hen, ouFriday, the 10th, services were heid iu[the leading Protestnot churches, mostof the Jburcb-goers were found to haveleft the town. Ou that day, the princi¬pal streets of the city were deserted andwore fl mournful lo«d;, as, iu obedieucelo the Mayor's proclamation, many tdthe places of business were closed.For the twenty-four hours ending at 0o'clock, ou last Friday night, the deathsfrom fever numbered twenty-two. Tutpestilence had made its way from "Hap¬py Hollow" aud "Pinch," where it hadpreviously prevailed, and bud, spreadover every part of tLe city and iu the-iuburbs. Shelby, a fashionable .«treet,had Hi victims us well as "Happy Hol¬low." Hourly upphcatio^-s were madeto the Howard Association for nurses,but in the mejority of cases, althoughover eighty were iu constant attendanceupon the sick, this needed relief couldnot be obtained. Tho large wages oftwelve dollars per day were offered fornurses, but without avail. The regularpay for permanent nurses is thirty-fivej dollars per week, with board and travel-jiug expenses paid. A correspondentwho visited "Happy Hollow" andj "Pinch," saw at least tweuty feverpatients in the tbror.s or dissolution. Inone t-hauty could be seen tlv« ghastly! spectacle of the father of the family (anj Irishmau) sitting .dead iu his chair, withhis head fallen upon his breast, while onia rude bed near by lay his wife dying.Two girls, daughters of the couple, werealso sick in tho same room. All fourdied during the night, aud were buriedin the Potter's Field. Iu othtT shan¬ties, three bodies ready for onriul wereI found, in others, one or two, aud itiothers »tili, whoie families were eitherj dead or dying. The Board of Healthvainly endeavored, by two or three de¬vices, to stay the pestilence. Theyturued the water from tho plugs into thedirty gutters, aud for two or three nightsin tncoessioo, the gaa from the streetlamps was permitted to escape nil nightas a disinfectant. By Saturday moi l ¬

ing last, a number of the streets pre¬sented a funereai appearance, a majorityof the houses occupied by the poorerclasses being closed, and nearly tili thecorner grocer;. ; &t.d meat-shops beingshut up.

Pasifcugei :- on /. Shreveport steamer,which reached New Oilcans on the 17th,'describe the pestilence ami destitutioni in that town us frightful beyond all tele¬graphed reports. Fully ouc-hulf Of the5.ÜUU or 15,000 inhabitants had fled inevery direction, many of them only t«>die ou retching a place of apparentrefuge. The sickness was the Mexicanvomito, au.I had been brought to thetown by the Trans-Atlantic Circus, ustrolling cfjnpatiy from Vera Cruz,which hud traveled along the line of theTexas PaciÜc Railway, ami had left theseeds of the contagion »long their route.Two other causes, in the opinion of thecitizens, aided to intensify the malignantland fatal character of the pestilence,and these were tho unhealthy conditionof the towu, arising from the removalof the Bad River raft aud the infectedatmosphere, caused by tho stench ofdead cattle upon a sunken steamboat,tho Ruby, which lies in the river neartho towu. While the circus was iuShreveport several of the member diedof the disease, and after it left others oftho compauy who remained also pe¬rished. So fatal id the fever that butfew who uro attacked recover. Threedays is generally the longest limit of thesickuess, and many die iu forty-eighthours' time. Tue poorer classes werethe first to suffer, but it has now spreadthrough all ranks of society, aud manyprominent people have died. In somecases whole families have been aw^ptaway. The first case of vomito occurred on August 30, wheu a Mrs. Stouer

I died; then a gentleman who had nursedher wus prostrated and died in bis turn.I Following these were the cases of th.ee! men who came tb Shreveport from theraft in tho Red River, whero they hadjbeen working. They were all threetaken sick with the vomito and died.

Thea« deaths caused a pafiio, and thedeathi followed thereafter with fright¬ful rapidity. The negroes bad gene¬rally escaped the pestilence, but theqondfuuu element had suffcfed. 'Thetown, with its deserted streets, wears agloomy appearance, and so many havegone away that there are barely enonghleft to bury the dead. The blacks arefrightened and demoralized, and it isdifficult to hire them to nurse the pa¬tients. As a general rule, the diggingof the graves in performed by the oiumen of the town.
