THK.tioilNlHO OF THK LtBR&RV OF CoNOnttAS.— Its Causz.—The cause of the burning of the Li brary of. Congress : has been discovered to boa careless construction of the floor of die gallery.— The joists which support the gallery had been in serted into holes made in (bewails of the flue thfoughwhich the building is heated. The fires in the committee-rooms below aro made of wood, and the soot which formed on the inside of the chimney took fire, and burned up to tho joists.— The timbers aro 100 far above the fireplace to be set on/ire in any other way than by the burning of the chimney, and such an event could not have oc curred at any-dme without communicating firo to the library. The alcoves of the Library were formed of limbers filled in with 41 briok-nogging.” The horizontal pieces were let Into the walls for the purpose of strengthening the structure, thus affording the means of communicating the fire to the vertical scantling, one of which was placed against tho wall in each partition. That such s defect as has been discovered should have existed in such a building, Is much wondered at. The fact elicited probably also explains why the same Library caught fire on the morning of the same day of .the month In the year 1825. The to Prevent IC* A correspondent of the New York Mirror, b medical practitioner, in an article on this eubjeot, Bay» ♦•The premonitory symptom ofcroup is a shrill, Bonoroos cough. The patient le not sick—has no fever, as often In a common cold—ie lively, per* haps even payer'than usual; his hands are coo), his face not flush, possibly a shade paler than usu al. T(ie solitary symptom may last for a few days, with no material increase or abatement, and without attracting any notice; suddenly, however, the disease hitherto latent, bursts forth In all its fatal fury, and too often continues its ravages, un checked,to the dreadful consummation. There* medlea for this symptom of croup are simple, and in moat Instances perfectly efficient. They are: a mustard poultice,, or a atrip of flannel dipped In oil of (urpeKiine, or spirits of hartshorn, applied to the ihrotfi; and nauseating doses of Hives* syrup to be continued as long as the cough remains. By this timely employment of mild agents, I unhesi tatingly assert that a multitude of lives might be saved every week, that are now lost through neg* ligoncs and delay. 1 * • Sccnk AT ah Ex*cohon.— At Chalons,in h ranee, a few months since, Joseph Monlcharmone, con vioted pf i double murder, was beheaded In the great market-place, in the presence of an Immense oonoourse of people, but not without much diffi culty* / When called upon by the ohapllan, who told Mm that he must prepare to die in a few hours, he uttered dreadful cries and Imprecations, •pd swore that he would never be dragged to the scaffold; When the officers of Justice arrived, his door was,barricaded, and he refused to surren der, A struggle ensued, he was pinioned and put into a carl. Arriving at the. scaffold, the guards untied hi? legs, and attempted to make him mount. Montbhartnont then.turned upon them and showed fight.' He was repulsed, and obliged to fiy to the top of the scaffold, where he was beyond the reaohmf his guards and executioners for several hoorsJ. ■ He then called upon the crowd to rescue him, but they-beeded.hira not. Stones were hurl ed at him, some of which wounded him badly, but he retained his position, covered with blood, finally, his executioners capitulated and agreed to take him back again. He descended, was pul in the cart, and re-oonveyed to prison, where, against his own suspicions, he was suddenly bound, and again taken to the market place. He was an eaayoonquosl this time. He was car ried up the atepa of the scaffold, struggling all the while, and in a few minutes his head was served from his body, end the law vindicated I Flax in Drraoir.—The Grand Circus Hotel, and two adjoining buildings, were completely destroyed by fireVai (feUoil, Michigan, on Monday morning, the 93d ultimo, ‘ '' ' ' IMPORTANT FROM NICARAGUA, Manifesto or tub Merchants or Orcvtown. By (he arrival of (ha Daniel the New York Times.has received some important intelli. genoe from Nicaragua. The American merchants and residents In San Joan del Norte, or Grey town, have Issued a Manifesto In reference to (he affair of the Prometheus, etc. We quote as follows: The port of San Juan del Norte (Grey town) is a free port. All articles imported or exported are free of duly. The City Government consists of a Council,.of which Mr. Green, the English Consul, is Chairman. The Council is competed of five members, exclusive of the Chairman, who are chosen annually by general election of the citizens. The names of the present Council are Wm. Gray. Henry L. Stevenson, Augustin Sigand, Samuel Shepherd, and James Geddes. Messrs. Gray and Stephenson are Americans; Mr. Sigand is a French man; Mr. Shepherd is a native of this coast; and Mr. Geddes .is a Scotchman. 1 2 3 Each roember'of the Council isa Magistrate,by right of office, and any act whether reialing'to the City or Harbor must be approved by the Council before it can become a law. There is a regularly organized police for the maintenance of order, a City Attorney to discharge the usual duties of that, office and a Port Captain and Port Surgeon, whose' duty it is to board all vessels entering the harbor. . All vessels entering the harbor are required to pay all harbor dues-except the-English Mail Steamers, and these vessels are exempt simply because they bring and receive,a mail to and from this place. The same privilege is offered to the Steamers of any other country that will in like manner deliver and receive a mail to and from the countries from which they come. - The steamer Prometheus commenced her regu lar trips to this port in July last, in connection with the transit steamers on the River and Lake, and the steamers from San Juan del Sur. The authorities of this town granted to lb‘d Company the privilege of occupying a certain portion of land on the opposite or north side of the harbor, for the purpose of fitting up the river steamers, discharge Ing coal,&o. Previous to the departure of the Prometheus for New York;the bill for porttoharges was presented, and payment refused, on the plea that the Company did not recognize the author)- ties, and consequently would not pay. The Prometheus was permitted to depart, and made several trips, each time refusing to pay as before. At the same time all other vessels arriv ing and departing paid (he regular charges without a murmur. On the morning of November 21, the Prometheus, being then in port,and about starting for N. York, with a large number of passengers on board, among them Mr. Vanderbilt, President of the Canal Company, who has just returned from tho Lake of Nicaragua, whither he had been with tho new Lake steamer Central America, was pre sented with the-usual bill of charges, including those due on former occasions, and payment again refused. I 2 A warrant was then Issued, with the approval of the Council, for the arrest of the Captain of the steamer for the debt. . The captain oftho port, with somooftho police men, went on board, and on serving the process the captain of the steamer refused. On this the port captain and his men retired, at the same.time giving notice (hat the steamer would not be per mitted to proceed to sea until the debt was paid. A few minutes afterwards the Prometheus was dropping down (he harbor, and immediately tho English brig-of war Express got'under way and The steamer still continued to drift toward themou h of tho harbor, when the brig sent a shot across her bow and another astern of her, when she returned to her anchorage, and Mr. Vanderbilt came ashore and paid the debt. The Americans here deem the Mosquito question a matter to bo settled between the Governments interested, and until that is done, that in order to maintain the laws ond give protection to citizens and strangers, the usual port charges, as well as all other taxes levied by the Council, should be paid. A rumor Is in circulation that a now revolution has broken pul in Nicaragua; that it numbers 3100 men; and 600 are on the march to Granada, and that the seal of revolution is at Caracas. Munoz is still in prison awaiting the lardy de liberations of tho Assembly, which is now in ces sion. Mr. Kerr has interceoded in behalf of Mu noz and his officers. Tho Director of the Slato of Nicaragua, Lou renno Pineda, has issued a proclamation to the People, offering his congratulations in view of tho restoration of peace and the discomfiture of thd “traitor Munez.** The Tribune has the following: Wo learn from an authentic source (hat (he par don of Munoz hns been confirmed, on condition of perpetual banishment to San Salvador. ' The same authority also informs us that at a meeting of the Town Council of San Juan, resolutions were pass ed ordering the steamer of tho Nicaragua Company to take a different channel on coining into tho har- bor, thus forcing them to land their passengers and freight at San Juan, instead of transferring them nt once to (he river-boat, as had been their practice. It is said that the captain of the British brig-of-war, which fired Into the Prometheus, had been officiously busy in the affair. Tub Destruction or tub Library or CoNOßßsa. The fire which occurred si the Capitol building, in Washington, on Wednesday,. destroyed the entire contents of the Library. The Republic soys: Tho library, situated in (he centre of the west front, was constructed with great taste and beauty. Tho room, was ninety two feet in length, thirty.four in width, and thirty-six in height, having alcoves over which were two galleries extending throughout the oppurltncol. The room was handsomely urna. menled, and tho light was admitted both from ample windows and from throe skylight* above. Paintings, marble busts, and cubinola, were a part of the attractions, In addition to the elegant folios of colored prints, and a choice collection of books, gathered from sli civilized countries, and from in. ternillonal exchanges. One of (ho cabinets had recently been placed In the library. The frame work was of mahogany, and in (ho maple panels, covered with glass, wore inserted choice bronze medals, commemorative of events in ancient times, and which were deposited through the agency ol M. Vatlormsre. Mr. Jefferson** library, embracing about seven j thousand volumes, was purchased in 1815 for twenty | three thousand dollars end this, wo believe, formed i the nucleus of the fifty five thousand volumes which , have since accumulated. Congress has, for a series , of years, annually ippiopriatod five or six thousand dolluis fur the purchase of books and papers{.and Is estimated (hut these have cost the Government, in addition to the Jefferson purchase, about two hun dred thousand dollars. However, many of these volumes, we learn, were kept in two small rooms adjoining tho library.— Among them were eight thousand law books, end twelve thoueand other works. These,' it Is reported, wore saved ; if so, the number of volumes destroyed is thirly-five thousand, some of which cannot be re placed. W. tep.il, that the content, of the mein library room, with Hi. trifling eneopllon. ilrotdy mention, od, were entirely destroyed l >■ w>. likewiie the root of thit portion of the building.

Injured, Mon Law into* Ohibokk Nation.—We learn from the Fort Smith Herald, that a Creek Indian, who was charged with killing a Mrs. Ratliff and a negro woman, some time since, near Fort Gib son, was. arrested and given up to the Sheriff of. Illinois district, and was awaiting his trial at the] court-house, when ho was taken from the Sheriff by a mob of men with blackened faces, end killed upon the epot. He was shot three times and stab bed In several ’ (Cj-Lleut.

Disastrous Fire in Quebec* Queße<V Dec. SO.— A very disastrous fire broke out this morning, about 3 o’clock, in the eastern end of the Artillery Barracks and Ordnance Stores.— The military barely escaped with their lives. 'Mili tary stores to the value of 840,000 were destroyed. The building, Which was valued at from $50,000 to $60,000, was almost totally destroyed. Tub Militia and Bounty Land alor Davis, of Mass., writes from Washington, that (ho Secretary of the Interior has acquiesced in the suggestion that all the Militia of Massachusetts, in service, during the war of 1812, lor a period 0f.30 days, should be considered as coming within tho provisions of the Bounty Land Act, of 28lli Septem ber, 1851. Indian Depredations.— Lute accounts from Fori Dodge, on tho.

Q7 f 1851. —The Kossuth ex cilcmcnl is fl.it. 1 There will be no glorification pro. cession in Washington. Ills policy is hero regard ed at perfectly absurd, am) his abolition spmpathisera In New York have ruined hit prospects for financial assistance In this latitude, ’Ho is expected here on Alonday, Bangor, Maine, Deo. 27.—A liquor riot occurred at Aiount Desert yesterday, doting which tho officer was knocked down, and the liquor earned off and secreted. Tho authorities, have sent to Ellsworth for ossistance, os further (rouble Is apprehended. 1 Kossuth.— Tho New York Courier snd Enquirer, whilst demonstrating vory conclusively .thu imprte. ticability of Kossuth’s schemes In this country, ■peaks highly of him as a man. . It says;. “Ficcly as wo have discussed the causes and ths principles of the Hungarian struggle, and earnest ate, and ever shall'be, ourumlcavuis-to »a*o Uia neutrality policy of this country unimpaired, we still cherish sincere respect for the man Louis Kossuth. He is one of the groat, gallant spirits of (ho age—of unquenchable enthusiasm—of unconquerable cour. age—of undying patriotism—gifted with tho meal splendid endowment; and matter ofun almost magic power over the hidden energies of the human soul. If he has his faults, he belongs to that rare order of men whoso faults spring from the noblest parts of their nature. It is the very loftiness of his imagina tion, and tho very spirituality ofhla temperament, that betray him into practical error. Question his moans as we.may, wo know that his ends are high snd his motives pure, lie is a man of faith and of hope—but, alas, a faith and hope that but too rashly spurn the aotua) realities of life—that like tho faith and (he hope of the Alpine hero of the Excelsior, urges him into sublime untried paths,the end where of Is glorious ruin. Surely, (he generous, fervent nature of M. Kossuth, too quick to believe what Ida burning earnestness yearns for, ought to bo dealt with, in this strange land, with perfect fairness, and if possible, bo secured from, imposition. 11 . , Frightful Ravage or tub CmitiitA.— By the arrival of the Bermuda steamer at Halifax, on Fri day, we learn that the cholera Instead of being on the decline, was extending its ravages in many parts of the island* The Morning Journal says:—''From nil parts of the country our accounts are lamentable;—the peasantry are again being swept off, and the dis ease Is spreading fearfully—while the violence with which It acta, leaves but little time fur the beneficial application of medicine.' At Muntego bay the town Is Infected In all quarters* At Leiih estate the mortality has been very great—death carrying offhls 30 and 40 victims daily from that properly and neighboring estates. ' The effect of this disastrous stale of affairs is already manifest in mercantile matters. Tilt Way to Stavt Them.—The following scone of rufftnism occurred on Tuesday, In the Court of Sessions,Now York: Two desperate characters named McCoy and Sul ; IWan, were sentenced by tho Court to ton yeors and live months imprisonment, each, for burglary | and (ho sentence was no sooner pronounced, than they abused the presiding Judges, using llio most offensive language, and then assaulted the oinoors having them In charge* The Court not having recorded the sentence, immediately, In consequence of the conduct of the prisoners, recalled them to (he Bar, and fixed tho term of imprisonment In the Stale Prison for each fifteen years and four months, telling thorn at tho sumo Unto, that If they made another demonatlotlon of (ho kind, their Imprisonment Would he for the term of their natural life. Creosote.— Persons Cannot bo 100 cautious how Ihey uso this dangerous liquid. Tho Williamsport (Md.,) Sentinel gilts the following acoouut.ofa re. cent esse in that town t A Gentleman purchased creosote of one of our druggists, and after applying a portion to the tooth he rubbed a small quantity on tho guma and cheek ot one side of his lace.
