THE GAZETTE. The following address was delivered at the Methodist Church in this place on Saturday. July 13th, in reference to the death of the President of the United States, hut was not furnished in time for our last paper: Address of €en. It. r. Hale. MY FRIENDS: —The occasion which calls us together is one of peculiar solemnity. As children meet together to pour forth their united grief at the death of a beloved pa rent, so on this day our nation mourns the death of its political parent. President Taylor is dead! and we, as part of the great family ol States, have left our homes to unite in lamenting his death, and paying a proper tribute of respect to his memory. A few months since and death seized in his icy grasp the lamented James Iv. Polk, ex-President of the United Slates; and on two successive occasions, apparently but as yesterday, we were assembled in this temple to mourn the death of President Harrison and ex-Prcsident Jackson. They : were all great men—beloved in life and I mourned in death. By long and arduous service they had merited honor from the people, and the people had bestowed upon them their highest honors; and when they died a nation mourned. Again has the angel of death swept over our land, and the great head of the people has fallen from the high pinnacle to which he had been eleva- j ted by his grateful countrymen. At the capital of our country, at this very moment, a noble array of the great and the brave of our land are following the lifeless remains of the hero to his tomb. Such honors are fitting, and speak well both for him who died and those that mourn. But we, j though unaccompanied by the pomp and parade there displayed, 1 trust, mourn our loss with grief equally sincere, and render to the memory of the noble dead a homage equally ennobling. In every village, town j or cottage throughout this whole country, Zachary Taylor was honored and beloved, and in eacli and all the new? of his untimely death has spread the dark clouds of grief. Zachary Taylor was born in Orange coun ty, Virginia, September 24th, 1784. His father had been a soldier of the Revolution, and in the year 1808 he followed his lath- . er s example, anu entered the arm)* as ; First Lieutenant. In 1812, as Captain, he commanded at the gallant defence of Fort Harrison, and won his first laurels, for which lie was brevetted Major. In 1819, he was made Lieutenant Colonel; in 1832, a Colonel, and served with distinction in the Black Hawk War. In 1830 he was ordered to Florida, and, at the battle of Okee-Chobe, won the distinction of Brevet Brigadier General. In 1845 he took the command of the Army of Occupation, on the Rio Grande, and won imperishable re nown in the battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma, on the Bth and 9th of May, 1846. The 21st, 22nd, and 23d of Sep tember, gave him the victorious possession of Monterey; and on the 22d and 23d of February, 1847, he won his richest gar land on the field of Buena Vista. The land mourned for the blood of her best and bravest, poured forth on that gory plain; but with her tears for the lost, she watered the laurels with which to crown the Hero Chief. The highest honors of this great republic were conferred upon him; and, although opposed by one of the greatest and most popular men of our land, General Taylor was elected President in November, 1818. On the 4th of March, 1849, he entered upon his duties as the Chief Magistrate of this great nation, and now, after the brief period of sixteen months, we are called upon to mourn his loss. From every part of our land we hear the cries of mourning —the outpouring of the hearts by whom he was beloved. All parties and all classes for a time forget their bickerings and unite in testifying their gratitude for his services and their mourning for his loss. But the richest tribute to his memory is to be found in the proceedings of the United States Senate. There we find, amongst other distinguished Senators, his late competitor for the Presidency, Gen. Cass, pouring forth his deep, heartfelt feeling at the death of his victorious opponent. \V hat a noble contrast does the simplicity of our free in stitutions here present, when comparer! with the old world! There the unsuccess ful competitor for the crown would be con signed to a gloomy dungeon, or banished to°a foreign land. Here the defeated can didate records, in undying language, the services and virtues of the victor. It is gratifying to us, to see the waves of political strife stayed in the Hulls of Con gress, and heart joined to heart in this hour of bitter grief and mourning. May this kind feeling reign there, as elsewhere, throughout our whole land; and as we stand around the grave of our honored and lamented President, let us unite our hearty j prayers that the Union may be preserved unimpaired, and the blessings of civil and religious liberty rendered perpetual in our beloved country! From California. The steamer Crescent City arrived at New York on the 22d inst., with later advices from California, and brings one hundred arid forty thousand dollars worth of gold dust in the hands j of passengers, besides a considerable amount on freight. Another tremendous conflagration has oc curred in the city of San Francisco. It broke out on the 14th of June, and before the flames could be subdued about three hundred houses, stores, dwellings, hotels, &e., were burnt to ashes. It is estimated that the loss will reach five millions of dollars. Supposed to have been tbe work of an incendiary. The great fire in Sau Francisco originated in the baking establishment, a small wooden building in the rear of the Merchant's Hotel. It is said to have been caused, not by incendiarism, but by a defect in the chimney. '! i,e Haines quickly communicated to the Mn chant's Hotel, Waverlcy House, the Sacramento Hotel and the theatre. It progressed with great rapidity, destroying all the buildings on the | south side of Clay street, from Market street to ; the water on the north side of Clay street. Also . all the buildings between Harney street and Montgomery street, except Battel's and Kller ade's buildings. J On Sacramento street from Harney street to : the water, not a building has been left standing. California street, on tho north side from the j Custom House to Harney street, is wholly de stroyed, including ah the most valuable build ings. Below Montgomery street, on the east ; side of Harney street, all is in ruins—also be tween Clay and California streets. Every build ! ing on Montgomery street, between Mr. Nagcl's , ar 'd Mr. ( annon's (of Baltimore) auction store, ; are burnt. Between one side of these points and C lay street wharf, and Adam's &, Co.'s office on the other, there is an entire ruin. That part of the city between Montgomery street and the water has sutlered much in the destruction of very valuable property, including all the buildings on Central wharf, and a very large quantity of lumber, j Among the buildings destroyed was that of the San Francisco Journal oflice—also the office i of the Herald. They lose a large quantity of printing material. In Erett & Co.'s warehouse a vast amount of property was consumed. Commission merchants are losers to a very heavy amount. The loss, it is believed, will fall most heavily upon shippers and on houses established by persons from tbe New England , States and from New York. A San Francisco letter of the 14th June says 1 > that within the past few days business has be come somewhat more active, but in general there are complaints of dull times. Small sales and large profits have been the order of the day. This state of affairs is not confined alone to San I Francisco, but extends to nearly all the sur- ! rounding country and regions, where much inac tivity prevails in consequence of the streams being greatly swollen and the water too high to allow of successful mining operations. The bulk of the miners are leisurely waiting a fall of the streams, and their number at the mines has greatly decreased. Numerous new and rich mines have been discovered since last season, and when operations shall again have fairly ' commenced, it is confidently believed that im mense, almost untold, quantities of gold will be discovered. The late Administration. Numerous treaties of importance appear to have been negotiated by this government during the last six months, of which but little has reached the public, except on the authority of mere rumor. With the late British treaty, which reflects so ranch honor on the country, 1 and which we ourselves have emphatically de- j nominated "the Great Treaty," the public has , been officially made acquainted. We have learnt that treaties have also been ! made by the Secretary of State with the Sand wich Islands, with New Grenada, with Peru, and Mexico. The treaty with the Sandwich Islands was ; negotiated with Mr. Jarvis, the Commissioner on the part of his Hawaiian Majesty. It has been, we understand, unanimously approved by j the Seriate, and intelligence of the exchange of j ratifications, which was to take place at Hono lulu. may be soon expected in the United States. This treaty, we understand, is not only atrea- i ty of Commerce and Navigation, but contains a postal arrangement with the Sandwich Islands, j and a provision for extradition of fugitives from justice. Of the other treaties w r e have no precise in formation ; but we understand that they are considered highly important to the commerce 1 and navigation of the United States. Besides these treaties, negotiated by the Sec retary of State, under the direction of the late I President of the United States, the Convention for the Railroad across the Isthmus at Tebuan tepec, and the several treaties with Nicaragua, j San Salvador and Guatemala, with the negotia- ' tions for conventions of accession to the Cen tra! American or Britsh treaty, will forever ! mark the era of President Taylor's administra- 1 tion as one of the most successful for its diplo macy in the history of this country.—A 'at.
