Wo hasten tl this early rinur, to give
brief account of the awful fire with which our
town was visited .this morning.! .... About half
past 12 oVtock tho alarm of; fire was given
and in hastening to the spot a few minutes af
ler. we found several wooden buildings
in
fljmes, m the very Jicart gftlie square, bounu
ed by Market. Front, D-'ck.'ar.d Water st'n
i no lire urigioaicu in 1110 rvar ui
street, precisely in tho same .spot where it
was set on (ire some weeks j ago, and there
remains no doubt in the minds lof ihe.corn
munitv. but ! that 4 ho conjlagraiion of ..this
mornin? was also the fiendish work of a mid
night felon. The; wind was blowing a gentle
breezo from the North, end the f miw spread
with awful rapidity. In Jess than two and a
half hours. from the first alarm,, the whole
square was in' a sheet of fhme$.. Tho fur
ther progress p,f tho deyourjn element was
only arrested at iJock strecii oy tiQ ycroic
exertions of a fe'tv; hardy spirits; whoso scr
yiccs were invaluable on this occasion.'. Ve
cannot ppw begin Jo give n, tolerably accurate
guess at tho ftimyunt cf .property destroyed
much less to any wno .was'or was: not insured
We think hoVvever, that., the total loss .will
not fall far short of 173,000 dollars ; and we
learn that most of the buildings', as well ns
the goods on the stores, were insured. ; A
large amount of the latter. was removed from
the houses, even whilst they , wert wrapt in
(tames. It is with deep pain that wo record
the occurrence of an accident which happen
cd about an hour ago, by which two of our
best citizens wero seriously injured. Cm

' K' ' Tlio Whiffs, . ,
Governor's Election $c.
We learn that our friend, Mr. Asa Birg3,
has been keening his hand in in Electioneer-
ICS!. Wo understand that ho nas addressed
the faithful in Currituck several times during
tho last iwoor three weeks. " - ' .t
We beg our Whig friends to noto this fact.
It is n H sign of jhe times," and be lhat runs
may read. Throughout iho State tho Locos
are already marshalling their forces , determin.
id lo make a virarous efTort to . elect their
Governor, and n majority of tho next Legis
lature, and, wo arc compelled to sav, unless
the Whigs Oirojy 0flf the apathy and laziness
that enfolds them at' present, that effort will
be successful. . It is not only Asa Biggs, nor
is the effort being, mado only in Curriiuck
but it extends throughout the '.length and
breadth of the 'State: . It ia their policy to
visit the strong. holds of Locofocoism, and
bring every one of iheir brethren to the polls ,
to drum up recruits, ,nnd personally interest
every Loco in ,tha approaching election,
hoping, by theso means, to poll more than
ihr-ir strength, while the vote in tho counties
which give large Whig majorities, will be
comparatively small, :
i We warn our Whig friends of jhese things,
Unless they intend to throw away, ihcir ma
jority in this State, and give up their name
and being as a party, they , must exert their
energies, and g'J forth io yie wor,k. It tney
wish to preserve their organization, they must
show some disposition to do so, and not , wait
until the jeers and laughter of their opponents
aro ringing in their cars. If they wish for
success, they must deserve it. -.Wo earnestly
entreat our. friend to : stir thcimclves, to
make some preparation, and riot wait until
the eventful day, nnd then tumble into battle
without order, or regularity, or preparation.
The principles of ' the Whigs are 1hb Hne
now they have been for years past, they are
ihe principles of "our .fathers, sanctioned by
a Washington, arid have received the approba
tion of tho greatest and( bear men lhat ever j
existed in the tido of tirno. yocouse the
Whig havo been benten by" the tact of their
opponen's, i it docs "not prove: I Locofoco
principles right, or Whig principles wrong
So long as tho Whigs believe their principles
calculated to advance the prosperity, hap.
piness, and dignity of the country, so long
i$ it their duty to battle ! for them manfully,
and if they oust Jalldct ihern at Isast fall with
their face tu the foe. ' ,
Let eveiry Whig "who is anxious for-his
country, let every one who supported the
patriol and statesman, Henry Clay, once
more rally under the glorious Whig Flag.
I.c t them catch but one spark or lhat patriotic
C. j thai animated them in 1840, let them
m:.l.conc more cfiort for tho glory and honor
of their country, and all '.will bo well in the
" oid Nnnh State." . .
The Whigs havc"a majority in this State.
The conduct of the Locos proves it." If through
apathy and indifT : seethe Locos should
succeed in ectin .acir Governor, the "js
will receive, .id deservedly the 's-Zci and
scoffi of the il.jle .TJnioh-r-Vhe slo., unmov
