Large Fire in Buffalo. BUFFALO, Sept. 28.—A fire occurred

at half-past six o'clock this evening in Adams' block, on Washington street, near tho post office, which was occa­sioned by the bnrsting of a gas pipe in the basement of the Commercial Advertiser newspaper office. A large five-story building in the rear of the block was entirely destroyed. This building was occupied by Mathews <fc Warren, the proprietors,of, the Com merciul Advertiser, and an extensive job printing office; Adams & Co., wholesale tobacco manufacturers, and Clay, Cosack «fe Co., lithographers. The front building was occupied by the' above named parties, also the Platte Fruit aud Oyster Company, tho Assessor of Internal Revenue and sev-erai'Taw offices. The loss will proba­bly approximate $150,000. Mathews it Warren lost their ontire stock, of type, presses, paper, «.%c, valued at $110,000, on which they have an in­surance of $88,000. They had eleven steam presses in constant use, and when the news of the fire reached Mr. Mathews, ho was packing his valise to proceed to Now York, to purchase several additional presses. The paper will be issued as usual to-morrow af­ternoon, by the oonrte'sy ot the other paper.

T » K FLORIDA AIR PLANT.—Tho ed-i ,or of the Magiziuo of Horticulture says that Messrs. Washburn & Co., of Boston, have sent him two speci­mens of the Florida Air Plant, which arc great curiosities. Tho air plant belongs to the natural order "/from-eliaceoe" genus Tillamlsia It grows freely on the bark of the live cypress, cedar and maple. It sometimes grows on tho pmc. Its favorite lacality ap­pears to be the banks of tho St. John, where it flourishes on the large live oaks which overhang that glorious river. If does not penetrate the bark like mistletoe, but merely sends its roots into the cracks and fissures, and is really an " air plant," as it appears to live -entirely on air and moisture. It grows readily when taken from the tree and transplanted.

This plant is highly esteemed by the hunters, for if you pluck it from the tree, and invert it over a cup, you will get from it a supply of pure cold water. • The water is said to be ob­tained, from Mm heavy dows which prevail at night in Florida. Alter a day of hunting or traveling a live oak is hailed with delight on account of the refreshing supply of ice cold water which the air plants afford. The air plant is said to grow freely in the Kastorn States, and of course will suc­ceed in the Northwest.

I recently paid a visit to a newly-wedded pair. I. found tho wife—un accomplished, beautiful and intellect­ual lady—pale and dejected. Tho hus­band, whom I had known as a noble, whole-souled fellow, now peevish and fault finding beyond endurance. Sup­per came— sour, black, bullet biscuit audi cako reeking with tho fumes of foul alkalies. Now, thought I, for the peace maker. I went out and purch­ased a paper of Merrick Allen's Gold Medal Salera.ua, and presented it to tho dtjeeted wife, who is uow fatuous for her skill in housewifery, possesses tho full affection of her husband, and blesses the Invontor of Gold Medal Saloratu*.

Governor-Let it be kept beforo tho pooplo that

a Governor of the Stato ot New York is to be elected this fall. Tho Demo­cratic ring of* Now York city are la­boring to grasp the control of the State and wield it for the same pur. poses they have so long promoted through their corrupt management of New York city. With this view the King have nominated JohnT. Hoffman and are making tremendous efforts to oleet him. An houost, capable, inde­pendent man as Governor, wiolds a vast power for tho protection of the people andjtho public treasury. The oilice administered for dishonest aims and purposes carries equal power in working evil.

Mr. Hoffman's administration of the office of Mayor of New York, is a fair test of what ho would do as Governor. Lot us look a little and tell his capaci­ty as a ohief magistrate under his rule as Mayor of New York. Tho Streot Commissioner is allowed to spend $135,000 under tho false pretense of keeping tho streets in repair for six months, to chargo $07,000 for putting down $0,000 worth of timber on tho wharvos and piers, aud to draw $80,-000 for $6,000 worth of labor on the same disgraceful structures ; the new Court House swindle swells in magni­tude week by week; tho Common Council revels unchecked in every sort of yillainy, and the taxes increase at a perfectly awful rato. Mr. Hoffman was elected to guard us against such wrongs as these Ho has not lifted his finger in our defense, yet ho asks to bo intrusted with still greater re­sponsibilities. Does he take tho peo­ple for idiots ?

Under the rule of Hoffman and his owners tho Now York Ring spends $25,000,000 a year. Just fanoy what would become of tho State Treasury if tho same gang got ooutrol of the offices at Albany ! The last Legisla­ture was bad enough, but an honest Governor found means to defeat some of its worst schemes. If Tweed and Sweeny got thoir man into tho Capi-^ tol, we should be turned over to the plunderers, bound hand and foot.

Domooratio Ritual . With the Democratic leaders theory

and practice went hand in hand. Dn-ring the struggle to put down tho mombers of tho Democratic party who took up arms against the Gov­ernment, their allies at tho North fol­lowed their profession by practice just as far as prudence permitted. Hero is their record condensed:

Encouraged the war of rebellion; Afforded traitors while in arms

against tho Government, aid and com­fort;

Communicated through spies in Washington city information to tho rebel leaders;

Aroused opposition to securing troops in the South;

Refused to vote supplies to Union troops periling thoir lives for tho de­fence of the Government;

Opposed the enfranchisement of Un­ion soldiers;

Denied all aid to the families of men who were in the army;

Denounced the payment of bounties to- volunteers;

Depreciated the national currency to destroy the national credit and thereby bankrupt the creditors of the country ;

By which- gold has been kept at its fictitious price, and every consumer In the land has beeu overtaxed.

Are the believers in this ereod safe men to take charge of the govern­ment ? They, joined by their brothors greycoat, demand of tho pooplo a sur­render to them of the management of publio affairs I Will it be done ?

STATISTICS OB ODD-FEIAOWBHIP.,

The Report of the Grand Secretary, read at the recent meeting of the Grand Lodge at Baltimore, furnishes the following statistics: Number of Lodges in the United States and Brit­ish North America, 3,142; Grand Lod­ges, 41 ; Grand Blncampments, 31 ; members, 243,798. Money expended in relieving the brethren and their widowed families, in oduoating the or­phans and burying the dead, $683,000. Annual receipts, $2,003,145. This Or­der has been established on a perma­nent basis in Australia, there being in that country 4,000 members affiliated with the organization in the United States.

JSTThe Tribune editorially says that a friend recently dropped in on a Democratic Convention at George­town, Kentucky, and that on this 60 casiou a rebel lawyer was speaking. " As there are no reporters present," he observed, " I may venture to spoak more freely than I otherwise should doom it prudent to do. We shall hold white electors in every Southern State, and choose Electors for Seymour and Blair. If the House refuses to count tho votes oast by those Electors, the Northern Democraoy are pledged to us to resist by force the inauguration of Jtho Republican President. Wo have agreod to baok them. Eight years ago, they promised to back us; but Ithc.y failed, and left us in the lurch. JA>w, we have promised to back them, .and shall not fail." This is tho prevailing spirit among the reb­els. They talk of revolution and war with the utmost freedom. Shall wo treat all this as having no meaning, and as mere idle vaunt ?

Irishmen Aroused. The Irish People, one of tho most

prominent of the Celtic-American newspapers, and hithorto strongly Democratic, last week declared for Grant and Colfax. From a brilliant articlo, defending this ohange of front, wo insert the conclusive summary of tho reasons why Irishmen should not voto the Democratic ticket:

As a great many of us voto for this or that party for very slight reasons, or for no reasons at all, I venture to offer some cogent roasons for not vot­ing the Democratic ticket. If ono or all of these argumonts has weight with any undooided pr unprejudiced Irishman, tho effect will be the salu­tary division of the Irish vote. I for­bear to offer any reasons adverse to the Radicals, because there nrcjunough and too many of our people at present opposed to them.

First: The Democratic party is al hided to tho Anglo-Confederate party in the Sooth, which carried of tho war for the destruction of the Union. Had Englaud and the Confederates been successful, this Republic would have been ruined; ar.d with its disintegra­tion tho hopes of all succor for the Irish exile, and all aid for his cause, would have been lost forever. The success of tho Secession would have been a great colamity for Ireland, and as suoh the Irish citizens of Am­erica resisted the policy and the man­ifest handiwork of England. There­fore it is unreasonable for them now to ally themselves with England and England's devoted friends, for this is what they would do if they connect themselves with tho Southern " De­mocracy."

Second. Tho Southern planters form­ed a real aristooraoy, with peculiar and unjust political privileges just as flagrant as those of any European aristocraoy. Tho war has levolod them down and leveled the negroes up. Hut the planter party are now trying, under tho pseudonym ot Dem­ocrats, to recover their formor aristo­cratic position and privoleges. Now, aristocracy and title democracy oatinot exist; therefore, every genuine fVlond of American democraoy must resist tho planters' policy.

Third. Roverdy Johnson has taken occasiou to assuro the English in ad­vance that whoever may bo elected President he will be a friend to Eng­land. Doubtless it was Mr. Soward, tho ninety day prophet, who advised him to venture on this agreeable pre­diction, and impose on the John Bulls by a reckless disregard for veracity. It this statement were as true as it is manifestly false, we should be justified in voting for neither Seymour nor Grant. But we suspect that Johnson has a better right to know the opin­ions of tho former than those of tho latter, and therefore tho declaration made at Sheffield should prejudice us against the Democratic candidate. We should be the most egregious fools in tho world if we voted for a true frlond to England.

Fbrtrih, The Democratic party are now obstructionists, conservatives, tories, reactionists, while the Repub­licans are progressive, liberal ami ag­gressive. I t is with the party which moves forward, and that loves liberty for liberty's sake, that the Irish should advance; for it is only from these that we can hope for any help.

fifth. The Radicals passed the bill for tho protection of naturalized Irish­men, as we asked them to do | ami be it remembered that only one, Demo-crat voted for the reprtsai clause in the original bill, while seven Republi­can votes were given to.'sustain it.

Sixth, We hold the, Democratic party mainly responsible for the ahti* Irish and pro^English policy of Presi­dent Johnson. He has* shown himself indifferent to tho into of our comrades,

and we should visit his sins upon his political supporters.

Seventh: Pertly through devotion to England, partly in aeoordanoe with the old polioy of the Southern aristoo­raoy, the Demooratio party are oppos­ed to tho annexation of Canada, and in favor of the absorption of Mexico. As Republicans, anti-monarobists, and anti-English citizens of tho United States, the l'Vnians should oppose a party Whose polioy is exactly the re-vorse of that which favors their inter­ests and wishes.

Eighth: Here is a spcooh going the rounds of the papers winch has not been explained nor refuted so far as I am aware, audi therefore, I consider it perfectly authentio. It was delivered by Frank Blair at St. Louis, in re­sponse to a Fenian serenade:—

[The speech was published in the STANDARD of Aug. 25th. J

The man that spoke thus is unwor­thy of a single Irish vote. But wo are neither unreasonable nor implaca­ble, and Gen; Blair Would do well to set himself right with us on the mat­ter, if he can.

Ninth: August Belmont, the Head Center of the New Ydrk Demo6racy, and the Chief Engineer of the Tam­many Hall Convention, has been open­ly charged in the public press with swindling the Fenian Brotherhood, and making himself an accomplice of England, in a most treacherous man­ner, in a purely commercial confiden­tial transaction. Are Irishmen made of suoh sorry stuff as to support a party whioh is guided by thoir mean­est foe ?

in Soenes at the L a t e SUeotlon Montana.

A correspondent of the Fall River (Mass.) Newt writes a letter from Helena, Montana, under date of Aug­ust 10, from whioh we take tho follow­ing paragraphs:

" Five-eighths of the voters here are old rebel soldiers, principally guerril­las and bushwhackers from Missouri, and oommonly known as ' Pap Price's men,' from thoir loader, Gen. Price, of Missouri. Three years ago the United States flag could not fly in Montana, savo from a few government posts, and the mau who avowed himself a Union man, or a Yankee, was shot like a dog. The rebel flag waved over store, saloon, and cabin, and was flaunted by Idrunken demons whenev­er a political procession appeared up­on the streets. Even ono year ago, when tho publishers of the Herald (a Radical sheet) moved into a building, aud raised the stars' and stripes upon the roof, they had three fights upon thoir hands in less thanjlit'tcen minutes. But the flag remained. Emigration from California, Oregon, and some of the other Western States, has had a good influence, however. Many old Union soldiers aro horo, and tho rebel element, though still in the ascendant, cannot carry things with so high a hand as it formerly did."

" Election day was the hottest of tho season; the sun beat fiercely down upon tho dusty street, aud tho miscel­laneous crowd who jostlod one anoth­er in their attempt to distribute tick­ets or persuade a voter, were drench­ed with perspiration and foul with dust. A dozen whisky shops in the immediate vicinity were thronged with thirsty froemon, and before noon there were ' drunks ' enough to pay the expenses of a Massachusetts Police. Court for six months. Fights, of course, were innumerable, and it hap­pened in all but one case that tho reb­el Democraoy were pretty roughly handlod. About noon, a long, lank, whiskey-soaked Missourian came Jto the polls with fight written 011 nis countenance. ' Hello !' said he, ' I'm tho man ! show me u nigger lover, and lot me chaw him up.' l ie had hardly uttered the words before he found one in the shape of a Federal Major, who planted his list, on his nose, deposited nim in tho gutter, performed a war dance on his ribs, aud would have killed him had not the crowd rushed in and separated them. I saw twenty fights of the kind, and many men who came to tho polls with decent looking facos, went home, in the language of this oountry, ' with a head on 'em like a pizened pup.' Strange to say, no­body was killod, though pistols were drawn sovoral times, anu thoro was probably not a man there who did not nave his hand on that indispensable articlo two-thirds of tho time. Shoot­ing would have taken plaoe 111 two in­stances, only that, tho orowd was so thick that mon wore afraid of hurting their friends.

I saw tho United States Marshal of the Territory, Gen. H.——, spring from his horse and defy threo foul-mouthed ruft'ans to moot him. But thoy know him to bo a dead shot, and skillfuijenough to throw a knife thirty feet and drive it through a man's body, and docliuod to dismount. I also saw an ox captain of New York volunteors challenge a New York gam­bler aud cut-throat, who calls himself the " King Boo " of Helena, to fight him then and there, with fists, knives, pistols or any thing olse he choose, out Mr. Gambler sneaked off amid the, jeers of the crowd. I could lill a col­umn with such scenes. Both parties had brass bands in wagons to wake tip voters, and every few moments they would bo brought to tho polls to chcor tho hearts of tho faithful there. The Democratic band played " Dixie," tho " Bonny Blue Flnjj," and;" Maryland," and the rebel yell whioh arose at times was indeed startling. Men shouted and screamod, danced aud sung, and hugged one another, and even rolled in the dust in their excite­ment. An old soldier who stood by me said " it's the same old yell; I heard it at Gettysburg and Antietain." The Republican band gave thorn " Yankee Doodlo " for " Dixie," and the " Star spangled Banner " for the u Bonnie Blue Flag," and every Un­ion man cheered for U. S. Grant, and the.Union, and so loudly too, that the groans from tho rebel throats did not drown them. A strange fcaturo of the election to me was that the rally­ing oommittees wore mounted, and could hurry men to the polls with a celerity I have nevor seen equalled.
