The old Pacific Hotel in this city was opened for the reception of guests on Seventh and Poplar streets on June 28th. 1857. The hotel was three stories high, the first being occu« pied by stores. and it was a very good hotel for those days. I was about 25 years old at that time. and after serving a while asclerk changed lor the position of head porter. The house had been opened less , thana year. when, on February 20th. 1858, it was swept by such a fatal fire as this city has never seen before or since. That night thirty occupants of the house perished in the flames, and it was by the merest chance that I was not included in the number. I had given up my room for that night. and ‘ was sleeping with eight others. mostly rail- 1 road men. in the same room on the third 5 floor of the house. About 2 o‘clock in the l _ morning I was awakened by the fierce i crackling of the flames, and was conscious of a sheet of fire rolling through the cham- ber in which we were sleeping. I rolled ( n the floor and crawled along on my hands and knees under the flames, which filled all the upper part of the room. The stench hole. I the sted is in war, 'hen thof 3 ip the the ole. tab- rns. the out her lye, file from the roasting bodies of my dead com- 'Z panions was fearful, and I expected . h- to meet the same fate. Although " badly scorched I kept my presence of mind and crawled along out of the room. through the hall, and to the stairways leading to the second floor. On attempting todescend them I fell through the fire d which had destroyed them. setting my shirt on fire and striking on the banisters leading from the first to the second storey, and breaking two ribs. From this place I gained the street and was saved. Of the other eight men in the room not one escaped. Among the dead was Mr. Gerry, a newspaper man. In making my escape my hair was singed off my head. and when it grew out it was as white as snow. The terrible experience of that night whitened it completely, and although suc- ceeding growths have had some dark hairs mingled with them, my head is still very white. as you see. A long investigation ‘ was conducted after the fire, but its cause was never fully explained. It was proved that the watchman. who perished in the flames, was drunk that night. and. although some thought the fire incendiary. I always charged it to some swinging lamps in the back part of the house. The night was bitter cold and the wind blew fiercely. The fire department, which had recently been organized. was hindered by frozen fire- plugs. From that day to this I have never slept in a room that was not within easy jumping distance of the ground. although I have travelled a great deal and stopped in many hotels. Whenever I could not get a room suiting me in that particular I have frequently spent the night in a chair in an hotel office.

Girls. indeed. are often a great nuisance to afather; they have to be fed. doctored. clothed, educated. if possible married, and. if nobody will have them, provided for as old maids. All this means a good deal of worry. no doubt. But. on the other hand. . a daughter. if of a fairly good disposition. and not absolutely repulsive to look at. is often a great convenience in a house. She seestothe warming of her father’s alip- pers. is always ready tosew a button on his shirt, or find his spectacles, or docket his papers, or. in tact. do any of those in- numerable things which wives forget to do. and which no tenant can be trusted to do properly. Moreover, a girl‘s pleasures are usually quiet and unobtrusive. And even if she be a little high-spirited, a man must indeed be a nincompoop if he can’t snub and bully his own daughter into a complete sacrifice of her whimsto his convenience. There is this. too, to be remembeied. that a daughter. if moder- ately well treated by nature in point of appearance and by her parents in point of clothes. is often quite a credit to an old gentleman as he walks down the street with her. arm-in-arm. This is a matter to which fathers are often keenly alive. For be it observed that no one can get much dash out of a wife when once " the spread of age." as it is called. has taken fairly hold of her. For these and other reasons it often happens that a father is qulta fond of his daughter. and almost grudges her to the husband who is prepared to take her without a penny. But a son stands on a very different footing. Look at him from what pomt of View you please, a boy is an unmitigated nuisance. Of course. it is always possible that some good may grow out of him. as mush- ‘ rooms out of manure. When he ceases to be a boy. and grows to man's estate. he may become a very amiable member of society. But where is a father's satisfaction in that ? When the youngster grows up he takes to paddling his own canoe, and might just as well be sombody else's son for any benefit his parents get out of him. This is a sad truth. which fathers are not slow to anticipate. I have it on the authority of one of the most cele- brated members of the College of Physicians, anda man of undoubted veracity, that. when a son is horu,the first question which the father asks is, “ Will be live, doctor 7" This question being answered in the aflirmative, the next which may be sup- posed to suggest itself to the paternal mind. though it may not rise to the lips, is “ How soon, I wonder, shall I be able to send him to school ?"â€"Tmth. aria-19!? voided the éohfiwau'on Lingo!
