HinPEHS* PHISXIXD OFFICE.
The New Tork Tima sets down tho loss of tho
Harpers, by tho recent fire in New Tort, at one
million four hundred thousand dollars, of which
$lOO,OOO wasV their buildings, the remainder
being their immense stock of publications,
presses, type, and the other materials of their
, ?ost publishing establishment. -.. We -understand
that the Insurance on tbo wholo amount is hut
$200,000. Tho mass of valuable stereotype
platea owned by thofirm ore saved, as they were
all packed away in the large street vaults.
The Jannary number of the magasiuo.wiU be
delayed a few days, inconsequence of the stereo
type platea and copy haviog been consumed.
■ The main thing needed for. the resumption of the
extensive business done by tho Messrs. Harpers
is machinery. If their presses had been saved,
their stereotype plates oonld b* put into imme -
diate use to any required extent. As it is, they
will be compelled to nso such presses nnd print"
log facilities,na they can procure for the purpose,
~ otlil a now- supply of presses can bo made,
which.will probably require four, or five months.
Tbo Times adds the following:
“Among many new books which -were con
sumed is Dr. Kane’s History of hie Arctio Ex
ploralions—a largo octavo, profusely illustrated
with engravings, which bad beonready for somo
days,-but Was kept book, until a larger snpply
could be secured. We bclievo that Henry Grin
nell, Esq., had receivod a copy of tho work, so
that it will not have to bo re-written, as well .as
re-ißsned. Several other books were in a simi
lar condition. Mr. Adams, the artist who did
the engraving for the splendid pictorial Bible,
issued a few years since, was half owner of tho
copies of that workwhioh were destroyed. Somo
ten days since, he was nrged by one of tho firm
to insure his interest in them, bat did not think
it worth while. - He was then offered $lO,OOO for
it, but declined. His loss will probably be not
far from $15,000.
Having 'suffered from a fire somo ten years
since, the Harpers had taken extraordinary pre
cautions lo prevent the recurrence of such a
calamity. They had a large steam-boiler in the
cellar; but with this exception no fire was ever
allowed.to be used about tbo building in any
form. Tho gas lights wero bo arranged os to bo
perfectly safe. All the buildings were heated
by steam-pipes; ■ wbieh had been carried, at an
expense of over $6OOO, into every part of them;
and. instead of the charcoal furnaces generally
used in bindery establishments for heating the
tools; gas burners had been provided to take
their places. Under these fire
was impossible, but for one of those accidents
which cannot be foreseen, and against which,
therefore, no provision con be made.
It is necessary to clean the Ink-rollers used in
the Adorns presses; and this con only bo done
effectually by employing catnpbene. In order to
render tbo nso of this perfectly safe, a email
room had been provided on the third floor of tho
lover building on Pearl street, adjoiniog the
press room, boos to he of easy qcccss from it.
TMa room bad been carefully lined with zinc,
and all the precautions taken "which seemed to
fnsureita safety. The campheoo used was kept in
shallow iron pans, and the paper, rage, &c-, with
which it was supplied, of course were scattered
nhont the room. It seems that a Plumber was
employed in this room on Saturday, to mako'
come repairs; ond in tbo course of his work ho
hod occasion to use a light. Ho lit an oil lamp,
and threw the match into one of the camphone
pans, supposing it to be water. It blazed up in
etaatly—set fire to the paper, rags, &c., with
which it was surrounded—burst through thepar
titions, and almost instantly Bwept with tremen
dous fury through the entire range of buildings.
This occurred at 1$ o’clock, and in less than two
honr% the ontiro establishment was in ruins.
Some twenty minutes elapsed before any engine
brought tbeir streams of water to bear upon the
flames, and then the oonfiagration hod becomo
too fierce to bo chocked.
Ohio aad Pennsylvania Railroad.
This company is winning an excellent reputa
tion for tie safety and regularity with which its
business is done.
We learned not long since that the Company
had appointed an officer.which we believe is not
known on other roads. This officer was to bo
entirely employed in looking np lost baggage
and freight, and return it to the several ownerß.
She gentleman appointed was well qualified for
each business; and wo have no doubt wonld
save the' Company from frequent and heavy lia
bilities, besides giving mnch satisfaction to tho
traveling poblio. In tho harry attending rail
road travel, changing cars, &0., volnabls bag
gage will frequently be left and lost; and a
faithful agent constantly employed in looking.up
such property and forwarding it-to tho owners
Wonld be a useful agent to the Company,, and
give the public increased confidence in the road.
We hope the Central road will employ a simi
lar agent We believe it wonld give much satis
faction to tho public, end be profitable for the
road. .
MOHIE’S MAP.
Wo would advise our citiiens to supply thorn
salves with this Map. We have no doubt that
all who examino it will pronounce it the best
they have seen—far the best It is tho lateet,
and therefore best. Mow States and Territories
ore being formed so rapidly; new railroads un
dertakenso continually; new discoveries so
constantly mode in regard to the geographical
features of onr continent, that nothing but a
new map will keep ns posted up on snoh sub
jects. This map is not only now, hut correct nnd
reliable; and-presents to theeyo and mind a
larger amount of information in regard to tho
North American continent, than was ever pre
sented by any map before. It presents, also,
the relative and central position of this continent
to Europe and Africa on one side, and Asia and
Australia and Japan on tho other. That alone
Is worth thaw hole prioe of the map.
The general reader, and the readers of news
papers,- who wonld understand the current events
of the times, should have this oheap and valu
able map.

The business of Pittsburgh is again unfavora
bly affected by the low stage of the river. The
largo class of boats aro still inactive, or employed
in tbo lower trade; and there ore probably n
hundred and Ceventy-fivo pairs of coal boats
waiting for a riso in tho Tiver to bear them to
market. Wo learn that coal is now retailed in
Cincinnati at mnoh higher rates than nro usual
at this season of the year. Another successful
ran of coal wonld greatly relievo the coal trait
here, ond the coal consumers in the South-west*
era cities. - We have no complaints of soarcity of
money hero at present, ond it is obtained at lower
rates than those paid a few weeks since. Tbo
fall trade has been considerably delayed by tho
low stage of water a large portion of the autumn
months.

: The receipts for eleven months of the present
year exceed the estimate of tho Chief Engineer
and Superintendent for tho whole year. The
estimate was $600,000, It will be about $070,-
000. It was estimated that $600,000, after de
ducting expenses, would pay a dividend of 7 per
cent on tho finished portions of tho work. Tho
estimates are made good, and a surplus of $70,-
OCO left.
: Tho road has cost, including its stock, build
ings, 'itc., nearly $5.000,000 —some $150,000
less, which will be absorbed in the improvements
the company is now making. About $2,000,-
000 of this is in stock, and $3,000,000 in bonds
bearing 7 per cent interest. Allowing $400,000
for tbs expense of working tbo road, which is
about forty-five per cent—a very liberal calcula
tion on a road so well built and favorably situa
ted—wo bavo not earnings to tho amount of
$500,000, or ten per cent on tho oost of tbo
whole improvement. The bonds, however, only
have seven per cent interest, and will absorb
$210,000, leaving $290,000 fortho stockholders,

A letter writer from Now York, in tho Wash-
Sngton Union says :
. The mint returns for November show a great
decline in the manufacture of money, notwith
standing that money wbb so mocb in demand
during that month. The figures are as follows:

Out of $8,680,000 of’ pold only $932,508 was
turned into money; $827,979 was turned into
bare, which aro sold nt A per cent, discount for

follows :

Of tho exports of fagots, a coneiderablo por
tion wont on board from tho California steamers;
therefore, tho excess caßfc at Philadelphia over
exports is greater than appeared in their figures.
There was at least $6,000,000 of ingots offering
in this market at a discount, at a time when
money was worth I@2 per cent, per month.
This through the inability of tho mint to tarn it
into coin. Of tfao money coined, it will be ob
served that a largo proportion has gone into cir
culation, gay three-fourths, and nothing has pre
vented a largo circulation but tho Inability to
supply it freely.

We received the following letter yesterday
from a friend, whom we know to bo practically
and theoretically acquainted with the business
upon which he speaks:
' Wheeling, Deccmhcr 13th, 1852.
Afeattt, Phillips $ Gillmorc; Observing in jour
paper of this dateu communication from M. T.
C. Gould, eulogizing tbe newly discovered pro
cess of making wrought iron directly from the
ore, by Renton’s process, I take tbe liberty of
giving yon a few ideas on tbc subject My opin
ion is, after haviDg been in contact with several
of the venders of the patent rights, and seeing
somo of tbe iron and nails, that it is a patent
humbug, got up to speculate on tho unwary.
Von don’t boo any large mills turning out tbis
cheap and good iron, but c furnace built in some
out of the way corner, to run a little occasion
ally to Bell rights by. Much, if not oil the iron
made. Is extremely weak and retteu. The pat
ent right venders will sometimes give a tnau or
company $3,000 worib of his wares, fur tho use
of hiß'namc in getting np a company of victims.
Inclosed you will find pomo of the naito made at
tbe factory of Norton, Acbeson & Co. The nails,
you will perceive, are very bad, though tbo iron
was mado at Fox's, back of Ironton, of Hanging
Rock ore. Try one of these nailß and **ee bow
it goes. Tbe blooms lost 12 per cent in taking
a light heat on them, and the manager considers
the blooms worthless for nails. Brother Phil
lips, don’t cheat the natives through your press,
but expose tbe bnmhug.

Morris, of tho V. 8. Army, has forwards! to
Washington tbo particulars of tho into massacre
by Indinns, of a portion of Copt. Gunnison’s
surveying party, on tho Western Plains. 110
says:
On the morning of (ho 2.lth of October Copt.
J. W. Gunnison, with ft portion of his scientific
party, an escort of seven men. and Mr. William
Potter, of Mnnti, ns guide, left our comp on
Sevier, for the purpose of surveying tho lakes.
The same morning t moved with the remainder
of my command fourteen miles up tho Sevier,
there intending to await tho return of tho Into
Capt. Gunnison. On the morning of the 20th,
at 114 a. M., tho non-commissioned officer in
charge of the escort came running breathless) t
into camp, saying that their party bad been sur
prised, and ho believed ail had been killed.
immediately proceeded to the fatal spot with nil
the troops I had, in hopes of saving somo of tho
party, or rescuing tho wounded. On my way I
met three or four more of my men who had es
caped, all of whom oonfirmed tho sad intelligence,
hut I knew not who had fallen. - Pushing rapidly
on, I reached at dark tho spat where three of
the party had fallen. Their bodies were filled
with arrow wounds, though not othorwiso muti
lated. I baited my command hero for the night,
and waited until daylight, when I proceeded on.
Reaching tho vicinity of tho camp, I found tho
remaining corpses of tho party, all of which
wero stripped, and somo mutilated.
Capt. Gunnison was killed hy .fifteen arrow
wounds, and his left arm cut olf. Mr. Breute
feldt had both arms cat off. Tho statement made
by tho survivors is ns follows: That Capt. G.
reached the first pond or lake at S i>. m., on tho
25th instant, and encamped between tho lake and
river, and at a bend on tho river thickly fringed
with willows; that the party aroso at daybreak,
and wero in tho act of breakfasting, whon a
terrific yell wns raised on their left, aooompanicd
hy a dißChargo of rifles and a shower of arroWß.
Tbo escort seized thoir rifles, and somo fewshots
wero exchanged, when, finding that the Indians
were rapidly closing around-their little party,
they nil tried to reach thoir horses. Those who
succeeded escaped, while those who failed foil.
The lowest number of Indians is stated at sixty.
The American party consisted of twelve men.

Privates Caulfield, Liptrott, and Mohrteens,

The Indians seonrod eight rifles, two double
barrelled shot-guns, seven pistols, and about one

Highly Important oo tlie Eastern (tuts*
tlon.—Treaty of Alliance between
France and England.»«TUe News Con
firmed* ...
F£om special information, upon which ws place
entire reliance, wo learn that on the-eleventh day
of November, in the city of London, a most impor
tant treaty of alliance -wds. agreed to and.signedby .
Count T Vahwski on the part of France, and Lord
Clarendon on the part of England, in refercnce to
the Turkish question. Tbus our views of yester
day coDcermoß this reported arrangement are
positively confirmed. ' ■ -
The treaty thus concluded between -the high
contracting parties of England and France was
despatched immediately by couriers to Berlin
and Vienna, with an intimation that from the
day of its arrival at each of these capitals a pe s
iiod of seven days would be allowed to the cabi*
nets of Prnssia and of Austria, to determine
upon tbeir assent or refusal to enter into the ar
rangement. If agreed to, well and good pif re
jected, it was to be understood that Franco and
England would take the settlement nnd the re
sponsibilities of this Eastern controversy into
their hands. • -
Wo farther learn, that from the terras of the
treaty, Russia will be required forthwith to eva
oonto tho Danubian Principalities ; or that, io
refosing, she hazards the momentous question
of an immediate joint declaration of war from
England at® France. And as the shortest road
to pose*, when once this declaration is/mnde, we
may safely assume that, tho active operations of
the allips ngnitist Russia will bo of tho most ef
fective and formidable description,; by land and
sea/ We may count ufftn the movement of two
hundred thousand Frenchmen, io tho highest
state of equipment and (liecinline, across the
Rhine and tho Alps to compel Austria and Prus
sia to show their hands. We may also expect n
riraoltoncous movement of tho French and Eng
lish fleets near Constantinople into the Black
Sea, nnd that the exterminations of the Rns
sinus in those watrrs will speedily follow; while,
unless prevented by the freezing of the Baltic,
another squadron of the allies will no doubt nt
the snmn time set sail for the latitude of St. Pe
tersburg.
This positive und* warlike alliance between
Franco and England is due, first, to tho onmis».
takeahle wishes of the French army, the French
neoplo, and the natural inclinations of tho Napo
lent* dynasty, resting, ns it does, upon the glo
ries and the unavenged disasters of the empire.
Secondly, this allhnce ngainst fhc timid and
trifling expedients of Lord Aberdeen, is due to
ilioforec of the public opinion of Eoglawd, which
is beginning to have a voice even In the foreign
policy of the government upon questions of such
import as this Eastern struggle. Thus a pro
gramme of prospective military operations is
opened before us of the most startling nnd im
posing grandeur. Ooco bsgnn, npon the plan
"f this treaty of November, the war wilt proba
bly go on. until Napoleon tho Third, on the
Rhino, tbe Po, the Dannbo, the E'he. nnd tho
Viatola. shall nvongo tho treacheries which pros
trated Napoleon tho First. Tt is the beginning
of a cow order of things, and God speed the
right.— X. F JTrrohi.
