have been instrumental in contributing to the beau

amongst the first settlers when all was nothing'
but an open marsh, where now -lies the smoulder

We understand that the fire originated in' Dod

means of hot ashes thrOwn under the building by a
serlant girl who; on discovering the smoke nrigi ,
natmg; from the pile ; hastily dashed on water and
left ; believing the fire was in consequence extin
guished. On account of the combustible material
and mea' the building, it was not extingukhed,

con unicating spontaneously with all the building

sq ' e. it ran up the other side of the street west
war iv, until it reached E. W. Harlan's large three
sits., brick dwelling, separated from Market square
by an alley twelve feet wide.
Lis believed that, had this house not been as
high, the rod e° easy of access, water so contigu

effort on the part of the citizens, aided by adverse
went, the application of the fire begin°, that the

on the 13th of July next. I concur entirely in

which it operates, an exemption from the evils of

to commemoraliit. - It is infpossible to disguise the
conviction, dud - this p e originates out of the
question, now unfortunate agitating the whole
Union, of the immdtictio r i of 'slavery into New

Mexico and California W ile no one can be more
opposed than I tun to .he tension of slavery into
these new territories, : eith i by the authority of
Conmress or individual eat !prise, I should be un
willing to do anything to ncrease the prevailing
excitement I hope that the question will be met,
in a spirit of calmness and r i candor, and finally set
tled in a manner to add stingth and, stability, in
stead of bringing any dan4er to the c.stence of
our Union. 'ln all our chtference of opinion, we

Hon. Thomas Ewing.
The Secrettu'y of the Interior has been from the
first day of his appointme4, the object of the most
malignant attacks and dergmciations from the Lo
cofoco press and politicians. The Washington
Union has just trumped an old storT about lied
scrips, which it charges upon Mr. Ewing with an
air of ,more 'seriousness than is usually affected. It
extends back as far as. IS', and might with equal
truth be said to have occurted before the flood. The
Union devotes 'nearly a column and a half to what
it terms the. details" of Mr. Ewhig's u`onderful
and shocking operations. It tells one falsehood to
start off upon, and. then it. obliged to tell twenty
more to sustain it.
The great! difficulty , with Mr. Ewing in the eyes
of the,Locufecos is, Tits steady and perovering. ef
forts in bringing back. they Administration of the
governmentito the hands of honest men. The De
many respects, the most dmtcult under sue govern
ment. In the various, land offices scattered thro%
out the West, the Secretary found a set of men
whose qualifications for the most part consisted in
party services alone,--;men in whom moral, upright
principles seldom found , a stopping place, and
whose convictions of duty were governed only by
the fear of detection. lie l'incestigated as we lave
reason to know, so far as he could; the facts in re
lation to the officers, and found that the public
service demanded their removal.
Since the accession of ,Mr. Burke, the I - n ion

Canada —The Questioi of Annexation.
The Canada papers coat nue to discuss the
nitestion f of A:iiit:-ITIQN.. . Great anxiety is
also expressed fiir — ffie, Air I decision or LTIO
Home , GOvernment, Al 6 ter, dated Toron
to, and published in the ' ichester Democrat
expresses the opinion th .t " the time has
come for Annexation," ant, that "a majority
of the, people are in favor of the measure."
The writer says that "you , cannot enter the
house et any well informed mania Canada
and broach the subject o i politics, but ~ m:
nexation is spoken of . as , cure for all our
present misfortunes ; and tl e :fact is, that until
we have' annexation, we s 311 have no peace, -
no preSperity, not safety n this. Province."
A Montreal correspond 41t of the N. Y.
Tribune says that three ye , rs hence, Canada
will be a portion of the nited - States Re
public. The British Caindians, he affirms,
" are most 'anxious : for , nexatiou." The
Montreal Courier says dr t "haying exam
ined the' Constitution of t e United - States,
the editoris of the opinion het its provisions
may be readily applicabl , to the interes6
and institutions of Qamidn. ' Th , re are al x,.
two Trench . papers in the wer Province,
which .have. taken grounds n-thvor of annex
ation. ' The London Tint s says that it 'is
growing familiar with the idea of allowing
I x.
Canada to be annexed to tUnited `tats ,f
lt.
and the 'London Examine remarks; `` We
hesitate not to say, that if Ye and the North
Amerhian Colonies can rt in peace and
friendship, the departure- w fild undoubtedly
be a gain to both parties,. b t more especially
to oursClYes." .
A writer in the Mpntrc
"The United.fAates havei'
