Un kliTlay evening a stable above Seem .1 street below' Ueion was diseoverel to l.e on fire and extinguish ed without damage. We Were..not_et all surprised er, these prom, antory_symptems to hear the cry of tire on Saturday night ahem' ten Welock, end find it nu false alarm. The lwilliant light indicated some of the alleys Dour Third amt Union streets as the locality. We found ,m reaching that neigh borhood that at small unoccupied stable on an alley running north front Union street above Third, had hCen fired. This was ry seen emmutned, burning fiercely. The flames spread to the two-story frame dwell ing house on Union street, in front of the stable, "eclipsed by Mr. Siehlita as a gro' eery and lager beer 'shop, - owned by Mr. John McDonald, and to two adjoiningdwell ings, also property of Mr. McDonald, all of which were eonsnmed. The hose was at ta:hed to the plugs at Third and Cherry and Fourth and Union, the nearest to the fire, but for same reason the supply of wa ter•was not nearly sufficient to keep one en gine at work, consequently hut little emit' be done fur some time in staying the pro gress of the fire. Finally the Susquehanna engine was stationed at Fourth and Union and suppled one of the engines from Mr. Joseph Mack's well. Fortunately there was little wind, and the buildings did not burn freely. Frame dwellings on both sides of the tire, although not a ljoining, were in danger, as were those oa the opposite side of the street from the falling sparks, hat all were sayel. We have nut heard whether the buildings were or,were not insured. This fire undoubtedly was the work of malicious mischief on the part of some of the desperately :than lined rowdies who dis grace our town. It w as eertlinly not per sonal malice, but a desire fur an oseite:nent. A more dangerous lie ttion for a tire, had the wind been from the northwest, could scarcely have been selected. Cannot the disperado+ who so wantonly sacrifice pro perly and endanger life be diseuvezed and punished? There must he something radically wrong with our water facilities. The sure ly at the reservoir, we believe, is equal lo any emergency, but there certainly was a diffi culty in obtaining it from the plugs on Sat urday night. The present reservoir• is too low: this will be t•cinedied wh om the Com pany erect their prop•se.l reservoir —soon We 11011C—bIlt, there must also lie a Gault.-in t'm mains, else the supply of water• would have been more abundant.

Cm Wednesday night Mr. Holub... brother and Mr. S. Hollings worth were on the watch in the store. At ahoot half past one n'elock the dour was opened, hut so cautiously and quietly as not to alarm the watch, and the intruder only discovered himself on Mr. Hollingsworth motion towards the yard to get a drink.— Alarmed the thief dashed Wit so quickly that neither of the watchers could get at shot at him. In his hurry he dropped a coffee bag containing sonic thirty or forty pounds of sugar, evidently stolen elsewhere. The hag has on it "Henry Suydam," and was probably stolen from that gentleman's store. The thief entered with a key. Mr. IZambo has endured these peculation. he thinks, with sufficient patience and f,rheitrance, and henceforth any intruder will meet prompt and warm recognition of his presence from a regular watch employed on his premises. It might. be as well for others to be on the look nut for prowlers, as the stolen sugar is evidence of other fields of enterpries. Tho l i kr or We Inesday night is suspected aml wateited.

The work is to be ready fur the track in fifteen months. By the con tract the road is to be commenced nt this emit-accordingly the contractors will pruba ' bly break ground at the Chestnut Hill sum tail very soon. This will be good. news to Columbian.. The prosecution of this work a4,ininz our town Must add materially to the business, as its completion will to our permanent prosperity. It will within two years furnish a new geld profitable market fur our limber as well as bring to our lentil dealers of all kinds, customers from a region of country now trading elsewhere.

IV RWIIT: —I . see by a notice from Con stable head the voters of Colombia w ill b e required, on Friday, 13th inst., to elect a Constable, Judges and Inspectors of our fall election, also, an Assessor and two As sistant Assessors. Altho these are all offices of a minor grade, each has its SC:Orate ins port an cc, and it is to be hoped that the peo ple will take sense pains to make goad selec tions. It will be the duty of the ASSCS,MI' to make the triennial assessment, Eecry body knows bow important this is, because upon it depends the assessed value of our real estate, which cannot be changed for three years. I think we ought not to select either the richest or the poorest—no extrem ist of any kind, but good honest men m sound judgement, who will neither through fear, favor. affection or malice, over-value or under-value property, but who will make it their -aim to estimate every man's property fairly. Sane years ago, the property in Columbia was a timatc.l so blab that CIO Commissioners of their own accord the per centago, lest we should be compelled to pay more than our jest quotn; and !only , - times we have seen that sonic men's property have been estimated entirely too high, and others entirely too low. The assessor should personally inspect every property and assess it separately (not lump two or more pieces together as is sometimes done), so that every property holder may know hew he is taxed and be able to appeal if he thinks injus tice is time hint. No man should be elected who may be suspected of a disposition to revenge himself upon his neighbor by over estimating his property, as I fear hits some times been dune. "Asrrutso tx IlEasox."—Wlaen the United States army started for Utah, there was a scarcity of transportation, or, in other words, there were too few baggage waggons. Now, every soldier knows how like the op. ple of one's eye arc these same same bag gage wagons, drawn as they are by six mules on the long marches across the plains. A Colonel of dragoons, who had command of one of the columns, restricted the officers Very much in their allowance of baggage, and was most bitter if any one tried to ex ceed the just amount. One morning the Colonel met one of his captains, (a dragoon course,) when he burst out as fullo,vs: '•Captain, do you know what these artil lery °Tutors want to take across the plains?" "No, Colonel, I do nor," said the captain with an inquiring look. “Well," said he, if you'll believe me, there's ono of them wants to take across a box of books." "Books!" exclaimed the captain: "what nest, I wonder? Now Colonel, I have but little to take across my ell—nothing, in fact, but a barrel of whisky." Of course, captain, of course; anything in rmon; but the idea of carrying areal of books across that stretch is a li the more than I can eland."

Seward and:ft:imam)), from the,mi nority of the Committee, reported in favor of a National Convention as contemplated by the fifth article of the Constitution. The Post Office Appropriation bill was then taken op and an amendment adopted reducing the oPproprintion fur the overland snail service. In the House the joint resolution to amend the ConStiintion, With - Corwin's amendment was reconsidered and adopted by a-vul e of 133 to 65—a Constitutional majority. The following is the joint resolution, with Mr. Corwin's amendment: Be it ennead by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of Amer ica, Congress assembled, (two-thirds of both Houses concurring), That the following article he proposed to the Legislatures of several States as an amendment to the Con stitution of the United States, which, when ratified by three-fourths of said Legislatures shall be valid, to all intents and purposes, ns part of said Constitution. viz: Art. XII. Nu amendment of this Con stitution, having for its object any interfer ence within the States with the relation be tween their citizens and those described in section second of the first article of the Con stitution as "all other persons" shall origin ate with any State that does not recognize that relation within its own limits, or shall be valid without the assent of every one of the States composing the Union. Corwin's amendment: "No amendment shall be made to the Con stitution which will authorize or give to Con gress the power to abolish or interfere, with in any State, with the domestic institutions thereof, including that of persons held to labor or service by the laws of said State." This amendment, it will be remembered, was lost in the Muse on Wednesday fur want of a two-third vote. After a reconsid eration .of that vote yesterday, Messrs. Kil gore and Stanton, both Republicans, made earnest appeals to their party friends to sup port the amendment, declaring that the slave States remaining in the Union were entitled to this additional guarantee. Mr. Stanton then called the previous question, and in a nearly fall nott , e the re-alt was the adop. tion of the amend.nent by a two-thirds ma jority. Frtin.sr, M.suen I.—The propositions of , the Peace Congress were ignominiously slaughtered in the Senate—not by the Hales, Sumner: and Wade: of that body, but by those of whom the country vainly expected better things. The Northern extremists were not allowed the opportunity of es en aiding in t h e slaughter, the work was done outright and completely without their assis tance. Immediately on the propositions coining up as the special order, Mr. Hunter proposed to amend the first article, that re listing to the Territorial question, by sub 'flitting Mr. Crittenden's proposition with the prorisi m relating to Territory to he hereafter acquired. Mr. Seward objected , that the amendment would change the whole • character of the ;Irtielr., and if so altered it I would not be the recommendation of the Peace Conference, but of Congress. Mr. Bigler, and subsequently Nr, Crittenden also, .joined in objecting to any alterations of the propositions as they cause from toe Peace Conference. Mr. Hunter, supported the decision of the Chair, persisted in I pressing his amendment and spoke in its • defence, Mr, Mason declared that he would! not vote fur the propositions, Mr. Green, of I Missouri, said that he would vote a4ainst Glens: and Mr. Lane stigmatized them as "a cheat, it humbug and a deception. - lu the 11.oise, the remainder of the re- port of the immitrec of T:iirty three not ',resht •ily tune lon was taken tip. '1 he Act for the admission of New Mexico was laid on the table. the object undaulitedly being to a t u t the action of the Senate on the other p irtions of thr report. The amen looms to the Fugitit e Slave Law ropo l ied hy the Committee were passed. The chief femme. of these amendments are giving the fugitive slate who asserts his freedom the right of trial by jury in the State to which ho s returned. with the aid of ciontsel and the prnerss of procuring evidence at the cost of the Voited Staves: and releasing the citizens of the free States from the oblic,a• tion of aiding, the capture or detmtion of a fugitive slate except when a forcible rescue is attempted. :s;eititer amendment is prat totally of any importance, though regarded as obviating some objections made in the Northern States to the present fugitive Shave Law. The last article of the repot proposing an amendment to the act fur the rendition of fugitives from justice, was re• jected as unnecessary and nut particularly desired by anybody. Sarmtvar, 2ND,—The Senate continued in session on Saturday- up to midnight, and then adjourned until Sunday evening at seven o'clock. The (lay was spent in heated and acrimonious debate on the Peace Con ference propositions and on the House prop osition (Corwin's) fur the amendment of the Constitution. The test rotes taken sh o ved that the latter would pass, but (there being no previous question in the Senate) the op ponents of it sought its defeat by preventing a final vote. Mr. Wigan, of Texas, made a violent speech, and was replied to with great severity by Mr. Johnson, of Tennes see. The sentiments expressed by the latter excited the galleries to trememluous ap plause, and after several threats they were I finally cleared, and kept so fur an hour's time, AT.

Mr. Crittenden declared that all that was nece:tai v to preserve the Union was a goarantee fru i t toe Republicans that they would not use their power to disfran chise the South of its rights in the territo ries; that they would agree to learn New Mexico as it is until that Territory shall hare t pomdation to be admitted as Congressional a State. He regarded this as the vital point necessary to retain those States now in the Union, if nut to bring back those that have gone. He declared himself still for the Union and against secession, and would say to Kentucky, "stand by the Union until ne cessity forces von out of it!' A debate fol lowed between Senators Trumbull and Wig fall, which was still iti:f,progress at mid night. The House, on Saturday, ngreea to the Sen ate's amendments to the Post Office bill.— The resolution reported frem the Select Com mittee, censuring the Secretary of the tavy fur accepting the resignation of officers of the Navy who had engaged in hostilities against the government was passed.

The President justifies the measure as one of prudence and necessary precaution. Thb House adjourned until ten o'clock un Monday morning. AIONiDAY, 4ru.—Tho closing scenes of Con gress were interesting and exciting. The Senate met on Sunday evening, and eontin ued in session until seven o'clock on Mon day morning. The whole session of twelve hours was consumed in an excited debate, the subject under consideration being the House amendment (Corwin's) to the Con stitution. This was finally passed by a two thirds vote, yeas twenty-four, nays twelve, and now goes to the Legislatures of the States for confirmation or rejection. If three-fourths approve, it becomes a part of the Constitution. . This is the only portion, of all the various propositions and plans of compromise proposed, that finally received the sanction of both Houses of Congress. The proceedings in the Senate and House en Monday were merely incidental to the adjournment. In the Semite Vice-President Breckinridge made a brief farewell address and declared the Senate adjourned without day. The Vice President elect, Mr. Ham lin; then took the oath of office, read the proclamation of President Buchanan calling an extra session, and took his seat as Vice• President. The new Senators were sworn in and the body remains i session to attend to such executive business as President Lin coln may place before it. In the House Speaker Pennington responded to the usual complimentary resolution with an earnest farewell addre,,s in which he rook occasion to emphasise his devotion to the Union and his arxie,y fur an adjustment of the nation at difficulties. All the appropriation bills were passed and signed before the adjournment. The most imp.wtant act of a general character which failed was the PociEe Railroad bill— it was never exhumed front the load of amendments under which the Senate buried it. The force bills of Mr. Bingham, fur the collection of the revenue, and that ‘.l Mr. Stanton for the eaNirr.t• ,Jut T •!,e m. litia of the States, were b air net the Republicans in the act for the suspension of / no bill was paved with re' ceding States.

An explanatory amendment was pastel as ne cessary to correct discrepancies occasioned by errors in the enrollment. The Missouri State Convention convened on Friday of last week. An incident of the organization seems to indicate very emphat Many the temper of the majority of the Con vention with reference to the Secession ques ion. A resolution was adopted on the first day requiring the members to qualify by taking an o ath to support "the Cnstitu tion ot the United States" as well as the Constitution of the State of Alissonri. A motion was made the next day to reconsider the vote adopting the rel dation, b it it was rejected—G3 against 30. The members then qualified as prescribed. The latest despatches from N ,rth Caroli na assert with much teeiitiveness that the State has gone against the holding of a "Sovereign Convention" by from three to live thonmnd majority, whilst a large ma jority of anti-secession delegates have also been elected to the Contention. reNNltsosr„—Bayard Tavlur, in giving an account of an interview he had with the English pcet laureate, says:—ln form and voice, Tennyson is a thorough Englishman; in features, complexion and hair, a media , - cal Italian.

She shrieks. The nasty, ugly thing. Mad am, the spider is, perhaps, shocked at your Brussel's lace, and, although you may be the most exquisite painter living, the spider has a right to laugh at your course daubs as she runs over them. Just show her your chrochet yrork when you shriek at her.— "Have yon spent half your days," the spi der, if she be spiteful may remark, "have you spent half your days upon those clumsy ottomans? My dear lady, is that your web? If I were big enough, I might with reason drop you and cry out at you. Let me spend a day with you and bring my work. I have four little bags of thread—such little bags. In every bag there are 1,000 holes. Out of each hole threnl runs, and all the threads,--more than 4,000 threads,—l spin together as they run, and when they are spun they make but one thread of the web I weave. I have a member of my family who is herself no bigger than a grain of salt.— Imagine what a slender web she makes, and of that too, each thread is made of 4,000 or 5 ' 000 threads, and have passed out of her four bags through four or five thousand holes. Would you drop her too, crying out about your delicacy. A pretty thing fur you to plume yourself on your delicacy, and scream at us." Haring made such a speech, we may sup pose that the indignant creature fastens a rope round one of the rough points of the lady's hands and lets herself down to the floor. Coining down stairs is noisy, clumsy work, compared with such a way of locomo tion. The creeping things we scorn are miracles of beauty. They are more delicate than any °multi clock or any lady's watch made fur pleasure's sake no bigger than a shilling.
