Osher physicians in that practice have not yet furnished us with reports, though it is expected they will do'so. The organ ization of the Board of Health, we trust, will be on such principles as will enable all physicians to re port to the public through it. The St. Louis Conflagration Details of the great fire continue to reach us. The fire broke out on board the steamer St. Cloud, which was - almost instantanermsly flcominunicated to the adjoining steamers.— i'• The burning boats were cut from their moor • ings and floated down the levee, setting ,hie to, such - boats as were unable to get out. A strong wind prevailing, the boats .almost the entire length of the levee soon presented solid sheet of flame. By:this time nearly the whole -city became aroused, and the utmost consternation prevailed. The heat from the burning boats set the buildings fronting on the levee on fire, the flames communicating at the lowest street, the very heart of .the business portion of the city—;and extending from Locust street three quarters of a mile down the levee, reaching back as far as Second street. Within these bounds nearly every bedding is in ruins. To attempt to give particulars in the midst of the excitement that now prevails, is utterly im possible. The St. Louis Republican office, with ex tensive materials and machinery, was entire ly destroyed. The offices of the New Era, the People's Organ, St. Louis Revielle, and Angieger des Western, shared a similar fate. Some of them, however, saved a great por tion of their materials. - There is only one daily paper printed in English language, the Uuion left. The banking houses of the Messrs. Benoieht, J. J. Anderson, Presbury, & Co., Clark & Brothers, Nesbitt & Co., E. P. Tesson, and the Telegraph office, subsequent ly removed to the - opposite side of the river. .The vaults of the different banking houses, however, are supposed to be secure. . The following steamboats, together with their cargoes, were totally destroyed :—White Cloud, Edward Bates, Bell Isle, Taglioni, Bo reas, No. 3, Agrypean, Eagle, Sarah, Kit Car son, Montauk, Timouri Acadia, Mameluke, Prarie State, Eudora, St. Peter, Red Wing, Al exander Hamilton, Martha, Eliza: Stewart, Mangan, Gen: Brooke and Frolic. A number of barges and wood boats were also burnt. • The burnt distrief embraces almost all the business portion of the city. The merchants mostly had on hand a very heavy stock of goods. There Was very little moveable prop erty saved. The whole river front of ware houses, from Locust street to Chesnut—thee squares—were destroyed; and extending to Main street, the flames swept both sides to Market street—crossing to Second street, di agonally; thence taking a course southward. More than a mile in lehgth, by three blocks in width, of the centre of te city, has been laid waste, and the fire will prodably contin ue until it reaches St. Geo ge street. On tl:e ri-yer, at Market street, the progress of the fire was stayed by blowing up the drug store of Messrs. Doenich & Valloux. Three peisons were killed by an explosion on board the steamboat Alice, and it is prob able that as twenty; lives are osyduring the progress of the ffestroyer. The City-Hall was several times on fire, but it is saved. At least three hundred houses aro bnrned. - Many robberies were commit ted, cf course. • Mr. Thomas B. Fargo, an auctioneer, was one.of those killed during the fire. 1-le threw a keg of powder. into the store of Doenich Valloux, for the purpose of blowing it up, and stopping the progress of the flames at .that point, but, unfortunately, the explosion took place before he could get away from the building. TIM value of the steamboat stock was about s3Bo.ooo—insured for 5200,000. Value of the cargoes of the steamboats, $150,000. Freight on the landing valued at $50,000. The total loss by the fire is about $5,000, 000. Suicide of Coolidge The Boston papers have 'the particulars of the suicide of Dr. Coolidge, who was senten ced to the Thomaston (Me.)' penitentiary for life for murdering Mr. Matthews. The circumstances, as reported to us by a passenger from the East this morning, were these: Coolidge had plotted with a prisoner about to be released, the murder of Flint, who, it will be recollected, was a student with Coolidge at the time of the Matthews mur der, and was a chief witness for the govern ment in the maiter. The plot was : that the prisoner, after his release, should go to Bath, where he should call on Flint, under pretence of being sick 3 that he should pretend that his sickness was in the lower part of the body, and that while Flint was bending down, he should 'strike him in the back part of the neck with a piece of iron, in a spot particularly pointed out by Coolidge, where such a blow ' would probably be instantly fatal. He was then to place near him a bottle of poison, and a forged letter purporting, to be a confession that he was the murderer of Matthews, in stead of Coolidge. If this plot was successful, Coolidge would, as he supposed,.be liberated. But, fortunate ly, papers detailing the whole plot, in the handwriting of Coolidge, were found by ...the warden on the prisoner who was to act so prominent a part in the tragedy, and who was to be paid a thonsand dollars for the accom plishment of the murder. Coolidge, upon this discovery,' was `forthWith placed in con finement, when probably seeing that his foul projects were all foiled, he ended his career of crime by taking poison. Upon going to his cell yeSterday morning, he was found exten ded upon the floor in an expiring state, and shortly after died. A YEAR'S Ron BBRIES ra LONDON—The number of robberies committed in the metropolis last year, was 631747, and the value of the property stolen was nearly a million of dollars.
