A movement was made by a number 'of our business men last week to skut .001011 Oki old "quarters," "levies" and "lips''=—that is, to take them only at 20, tOlind 6 cents, respectively—but failing to meet general approbation in regard to the "quarters," they still go at their nominal value. "Levies" and "lips" pass for but ten and five cents. There is, however, no telling how soon " quar ters " may be down to twenty cents, add to save our patrons from loss on such as they may have, we would ad vise that they be brought to this office right soon, where they may bo invested iu subscription, Sc. The average value of " fps" at the Mint, we are told, is 51 cents, "levies" 10f cents, and "quarters," about 221 cents. Comparative fineness of Amer can coin, 90Q-100th; Spanish do. 897- 100th. Fire at New Oxford'. About 10 o'clock on Wednesday morning last, the Franklin house, in New 'Oxford, kept by Mr. JACOB MAR TIN, was discovered to be on fire. Mr. Martin hastened to the second floor, •where ho found the bedding and cloth ing in the room of one of the boarders burning rapidly. On the alarm being given, the citizens of the place quickly a.bsembled to give assistance, but before the fire could be subdued, the contents of the room were cot-aimed, together with the woodwork of the passage, stairway, doors of the adjoining rooms, &c. The devouring element had al ready worked its way to the roof, and but for the active efforts made to sup press the flames, the entire building must have fallen a prey to them. The damage to the building is considerable, not counting the furniture, bedding, &c.; but we suppose that by this time it is repaired. It is not known how the fire originated. iirOn Friday last fire was discover ed in a box of old papers on the kitchen garret; but no damage was done. This looks like incendiarism. Another Fatal Accident. The particulars of a fatal and distress ing accident were told us yesterday morning. On Wednesday last,while Mr. JosErn KLUNK and son were engaged with a team of horses haulitig.we did not learn what, near MeSherrystown, they approached a hill, when the father alighted to draw the rubber. Whilst 'he was doing this his son, Fsarccis, a boy about 13 years of age, was thrown from the horse upon which he was rid- Lig,in consequence of the horse stumb ling, and being unable to recover him self, the heavywagon passed over his bo dy, inflicting internal injuries sufficient to cause his death in half au hour after wards. The above is front the Hanover Spec tator of Friday. That paper also says that it was in error in noticing the dt=th'of the child of Mr. V. Wentz a week ago. The death was not caused by the fall, but was •the result of dis ease. New Court lileasse. We understand that Mr. TURNER will to-day commence pulling down the buildings on the site for the new Court house, and intends to push work a. steadily forward as circumstances will admit, to the completion of his con tract. Mr. ABRAHAM TAW ET will do the mason work, and Mr. Sot omos Powsas tho granite. . Llittlestowis Esilririvii. We learn that the track-laying on the Littleatown Railroad is progress ing finely, and that its completion nay be looked for in the course of a few weeks. We congratulate the citi zens of that vicinage on the near ap proach of the regular visits of the "iron horse," and hope for a great good time at the "opening." New Bridge.. A gentleman at New Oxford "sends us word" that we omitted to mention the Bridge crossing the Railroad on Righ street, in that place, in our notice of s recent reconnoissance along the line of the Road. The bridge, put up by Capt. John Camp, is a substantial Ooze of workmanship, and doubtless satisfactory in every particular. It is sufficiently elevated above the track to alloy► the locomotive to pass beneath, with room to spare. It will prove a great convenience. Bednetioa. It will be seen by reference to Mr. Xaturravr's advertisement in another eolaran, that he has reduced the freight on the First Class from Philadelphia to - New Oxford, to 40 cents per 100 lbs. sate* of Property.

Exhibition, by representatives from each School in the Borough, which took place in the new School building, on Tuesday - evening, gave a high degree of satisfaction to this large audience in attendance. 'rho young ladies and young gentlemen par ticipating in the exercises generally ac quitted themselves in a creditable man ner—" acted well their parts." The receipts fur tickets of admission were quite handsome—something like El the first evening. The Exhibition was repeated on Wednesday afternoon, to which all the schools of the town were admitted free of charge. In the evening, it was again given, at half-price, and the num ber in attendance was lair. Much credit is due to those concern ed in the active work of getting up this Exhibition, for their patience and por severence. To them its success is in a great measure° w ing. The Blues' Band also deserve a word of commendation. They contributed no little to the pleas ure afforded by the Exhibition, by their first class music. That serenade of the town from " the house-top" on Wednes day evening was especially happy, and we hope for a repetition on every na tional holiday. " Make a note of it," gentlemen of the Band. The new School building has a com manding location, and is one of the most attractive in appearance which the town embraces. Mosers..Geo. & hexer CIIIIITZMAN, the contractors for its erection, have made an excellent jab of it- Quirk Work. A friend at :New Oxford informs us that the "First " was a decidedly mov ing day in that now improving village.

He moved out of a house in the morning, but was mihusanizther to move into. So he fell to work, and by sun-set had put up a new domicile, complete, and moved into 'it the same day !

S. .11fax Killed in Washington.—WAsii moroN, April 6.--Capitol Hill was this evening the seeno of great excitement. Thomas Berry, a brother-in-law of two young men named Develin, was killed by wounds inflicted whilst in the yard of their dwelling. It appears that Berry, accompanied by two friends, visitud the fatal house, his friends re maining outside, when by a side door Berry entered. The horrid deed was consnmmated in a very few minutes— supposed only two or three. It insta ted that Berry had been warned Against any further visits there. Both the Devehns were committed to jail. This horrid deed is attributed to domestic difficulties of long standing, which do not yet fully appear.

For the apace of nine days the crew walked up and down the beach in the hope of attracting the attention of some pass ing vessel, and were at length relieved by the steamship Daniel Webster, which took them all on board. They describe their sufferings as having been very great.' They were trecinently at tacked by bears, panthers and wolves. Twelve of the former they succeeded in killing, and also three of the latter. Five other wrecks were found on the beach, some of which were of recent date. The bodies of nineteen mon and a grave with a slab at its bead bearing the name of Captain Adams, were also discovered forty miles below Stryker's inlet.

It is perfthitly Fire and Water proof, and in p riot of durability is cqu:d. if not superior, to any thtalic Roofing. It can be pot on rarer tin, tar, iron, or shingle roofs, however fiat or steep they may be. In p lint of resisting the elements of fire and water, nothing has yet been discurered equal to the Elastic Cement. Those who hare ut.ed it, hare testified that it is the very perfection of Roofing, and that there is no further room fir improvement.— No ono will now think of putting on ohingleg, when this Cement can be had for much less money and will outwear four shingle roofs. This Roofing is warranted as represented. The Elastic Cement is the cheapest and best protection from decay for wood exposed to the weather or dampneas of the ground. It is also the best paint fir iron, effectually preventing rust: and wherever applied per fectly excludes dampness. The subscriber has this Cement for sale, in quantities to Suit. Fur further information, apply to GEORGE A. COLE, Frederick City. Md. Iffirgpeciatens of the Roofing may be seen at the Pruthonutary's Office, in Gettysburg. April 6, 1858. Assignee's Notice.
