These works, the result pf years of untiring in*, dastryiopeopy an entire square, extending from Pike • .street to the Allegheny river. The fire commenced apparently ..in ope of the sheds on the bonk of the rjrertbnt the wind being very high, It soon common nicated to - one ,of the mainbuildings, which was almost instantly wrapped inflaraes'.'The stacks of fiasksy piled np in the yard, used for moulding, were immediately demolished by the devouring element. The rain daring the day and night was the only thing that could possibly have prevented the adja* cent buildings from taking fire. The extraordinary exertions of the firemen, although- for a time their/ efiorts appeared fruitleea as the strong wind dashed the water Jnto spray before, ii. .reached the firo, euc cccded in confining the fiames to one baUding. We could not learn the amount of insurance, if any. The loss is heavy, and will be the cause, per* haps, of throwing out of emplbymenti for a time, a of hands. , . . .This, no doubt, is the work; of some fiendish in. eendiary. PmaBpBOH Comhebcial College.—The exami> / nation of the. graduating pupils of-the Pittsburgh Commercial College, took place at the rooms of that Institution, on Market street,'entrance by Third street, on Tuesday night. It was the first exhibit - .tion of the kind which we had. ever the pleasure of attending, and we were tuily delighted with the : proficiency displayed, not only by the yonng gentle. v meh who graduated, but by all. the scholars who werepreaeot. The examination was a moat severe and critical one; yet the most abstruse questions were answered with a readiness which surprised the .merchants whocrowded the room, and expressed themselves htghijTgraiificd at the result. The com mittee of examination passed a high eulogium on the yonng men, Messrs. H. W. Lukins,. James Me- Ciurg,G. M. Portor,R, W. Hawkins, Wm. Hutch inson and A. C, Hawkins, who graduated and re* ceived their diplomas; and indeed everyone pres, ent waa of .the opinion that they had acquitted them /selves with credit.; This result is to be attributed •to the unremitting care'arid attention of Professors 0. K. Chamberlin and John Fleming, who are admi-* rably adapted to the positions which they occnpy. - Prior lb the dispersion of-tbe audience, Mr. Fie* miog made some appropriate remarks, in the course *.of which he pointed out to the young gentlemen who iprere' in attendance the duties which would hereafter devolve upon them as merchants, and hoped that they would conduct themselves as well in that capacity as while under his instructions. John. T. Cochran, Esq., then delivered an able address* in the-course of which he took occasion to • compliment .the pupils on the proficiency which they had displayed, and to point orit tfao ability of the professors who had instructed them. We understand \that quite a number of young gentlemen will graduate in a few weeks, when an other public examination of all the pupils will take place. Robbery.—Thomas Dunlap was arrested yester# day morning by High Constable Hague, charged with burglariously entering Sheplar’s tavern, in the Diamond, and robbing tho sleepers of a considera ble amount of money.

One person had one hundred and twelve dollars stolen from him, A purse found on Dunlap was identified. During tho administration of « Old Joe, n he wsb one of the guardians of the city, and as yet, it ap* pears, be has not got out of the way, altogether, of taking care of other pebplp’s property.

GUTHRIE, Mayor. State Mutual Fire Insurance Company. BRANCH OFFICE, 54 SmTHPtELD st., Pittsburgh, January Ist, 1851. THE best evidence of the success of the Directors in endeavoring to make the “STATE MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY” meet the wants of the community, is the unparalleted amount of business which has been done—having issued nearly 4,900 Poli cies iu a little more than seven months; and.adding over.S7o.oGo capital to the company. The Direciors are proud to say, that nearly all the property insured is of the safest kind, in small risks, and a large proportion insured for only one year. Number of Policies issued- 3,953 Amount of propertyiusured---- 64,073,568 00- Amountofguaraiueepreraiums's4s,49o 38 Amountof cashpremiums---—« 24,631,80 Amount of guarantee stock- 6 70,123 18 Amount of losses 3 3,800 00 To be deducted from the above the incidental expen ses of the office. To city or country merchants, and owners of dwell ings, and isolated or country property, it is believed this company affords advantages in pomtef cheapness, safety and security, inferior to no Insurance Company in this country. Conducted on the equitable and greatly improved sys tem of Classification of Risks, excluding all special hazards, insuring only a limited amount in any one lo cality, thus precluding the frequency and occurrence of laige fires, and also, on both the Stock and Mutual plan, it not only possesses the cheapaess and accommodation of both methods, but entitles the insured to a participa tion in the profits. .

WHEN the theory of the circulation of the’blood was established, the secret springs of. vitality were then partially exposed to our view. 'We saw and understood that the food we eat, was Convened into blood, which repaired the waste of the animal machine; the food is fuel, which keeps at a life heat the Internal fires that warm and invigorate our inner man. ' The blood is an electric fluid which carries ibis heatto every ramification of the body, even to the extremities of the hair and horny nail. While the blood,is thus the seat of - life, it is also the seat of.disease. Food gives the body strength; Brandreth’s pills give blood.the necessary Sower to throw out from itself all impurities, thus ren eringthe stream of life pure and healthy. If men were more sincere, there would be fewer, religions creeds; and if they kept close to nature’s laws in the management of their bodies, they would require little medicine. .As men grow intelilligent theyWillbecoine wiser and hap-, : pier; evettnow, their wisdom is proved by thefact that, when sickness assails them, they use Brandreth’s Vege table Univeral Pills, which soon restore them to health. They are peculiarly adapted to the climate, and require no extra care when they are used, in either dietor cloth htg. They should be always in the boose, so thntupon the first indication of sickness theymaybeused. One dose in the beginning is more potent for good, than a . dozen ofter the sickness is fixed in the system, incolds, . coughs, asthma, rheumatism j costiveness, fevers, and in all acme, heavy or deep-seated pains, their effects will be found beyond nil praise.. Three. or five will act like - a charm, often curing a dangerous malady at once, sa ving months of sicknesaand the evils thereunto attend ing. Remember, Brandreth’s Pills- are - a known and .•■ faUy tested medicine, one that is used by hundreds of thousands in this country and throughout the civilized world. They are quietly superseding all other medi cines. They take out only that from the . blood which is the cause oi weakness and pain, leaving strength-'and! health; they produce healthy sleep at night, and an ap petite thatreltshes nil kinds of food. .Sold at No. 29 Diamond alley—the only place in Pitt - burgh where the genuine Brandreth Pills are kept for sale —the undersigned is the oniy agent in the city. dec2&3m THOMAS REPPATH.
