The New Orleans Picayuti has. intelligence that the .iberals are sweeping everything before them in the more Testern States of Mexico, even down to the shores of the acific. The withdrawal of the imperial troops from at direction to meet the more pressing danger in New 30B, Coahuila, and Tamaulipas, perhaps left the door pen for them. It fs also probable that the large numbers Americans who have, recently gone as miners. colon Is, and adventurers, to Chihuahua, Sonora, and Sinaloa, ,ave had aomethjng to do with it For, though they went here with th encouragement of the Empire, the most of them,.apart from the evanescent prejudices acquired dur ng our civil war, ate Liberals in political sentiments, and till naturally combine with that jiartyor finally set up 'or themselves. Mexico is full of Americans, "divided, liscordant, belligerent," driven there by our civil war, nd of Europeans following the fortunes of a doubly Eu ropean dynasty.

NO 509 The Great Fire. The meagre, flat unsatisfactory accounts of the re cent fire in New York city, by which the-, country has bee dbprivs of iis gieatest museum of curiosi ties, have beea tdore tihau tatttalizing. "The telegraph wire between this point and Petersburg is the only one we are allowed to pse for press despatches at preBenti When wo receive news from New York di rect as we often do we are obliged to pay at the T-Ates of private messages, entailing -on us a great ex pense. As usual we have published tbe news in ad vance of our cotemporariea- the Record with its' no. ?ustomeI rapidity in obtaining news.hasa't fonad it out yet and we hasten to lay the following synop f ia of the particulars before our readers : - 'The fire originated in a defective furnace in the cellar un der Oroot's restaurant, beneath the office of the Mu seum, at No. 8 Ann street, and was first discovered bf an employee of the Museum, at precisely thirty-five minutes past noon. The alarm was instant'j given to the polic and firemen, and to the inmates of the Mu seum, of which latter, bappily, there were few. An hour earlier an' alarm of fire might have produced a fanic among the audience in the lecture-rooms and many ives might hare been lost. As it was, however, the SCaiiE WITHIM TH1 MUSEUM, from the moment iof the discovery -down to the time when, at about 1 o'clock,, the last venturesome fireman was driven from his ladder, was one of pain'ul interest for scarcely had the alarm been sounded in the street when the flames from the furnace below belched into the lower halls of the great edifice, and rendered it manifest that the conflagaration,; so far as the Museum was con cerned, had passed; human control. Then there was fly ing to and fro among the attaches ,of the theatrical de partment, who vainly strove to save their wardrobe and -other valnables ; the struggling countrymen who had wandered among the microcosm of curiosities rushed hither and thither seeking egress from the building; presenty the police filed in, to guard property and 8ave life, and at length the firemen came clambering up the walls, and howling into the lecture-room, dashing their axes through the floors, and swinging their trumpets, if to menace the multitude ; and to the three or four spectators who preserved sufficient coolness to take sober note of the spectacle, it seemed wonderful that there was not enormous loss Of life. At 1 o'clock the Museum was a mass of tire, and the flames had burst into the adjoining buildings in Fulton street, Broadway and Ann-street, while the roofs and walls of the buildings in the neighborhood and the eas tern front of St. haul's were menaced, and it seemed as though the entire block through to Nassau street must be consumed. But the firemen, who had now arriyed in force poured "cataracts of Croton upon the buildings in the centre of the btodk, and upon the roofs opposite ; 8 nd oneentirecompanyistoodin 4.be scorching heat at the head of Vesey street, and flooding the eastern front of 1st. Faui's, saved the venerable pile from ruin. From the MuseuM the names first "crept throaer the ad joining houses, and ! into the- upper story of Knox's hat store, No. 212 Broadway. Tell-tale smoke playing about the main cornice first notified spectators in the street below that Wi;,Hi-jr -is doomed. In a few minutes the flames fluked out of the upper story windows on Fulton street, aim tucu oeiuueu forth from those on Broadway. The beat bad now become ; intense and unendurable The crowd that thronged Park-row, Broadway and the Park were compelled to fallback. The throng that stood in Ann-street were driven, half way to Nassau. The buildings on Pat k-row give signs of yielding to the heat when the firemen began to play upon tneni, ana tor a long time were .successful in preventing them from taking fire. The steam fHmtbe heated buildings and the dense smoke darkened the air. The roofof the Museum had now fallen, and the in terior of the building was like the crater of a volcano. A stream of heated air. issued from the top, and was borne eastward by j the breeze directly over-the block, carrying with it light articles, pieces of burning wood, shingles, Ac. One man on Ann street, not far from Nas sau, was struck' on the .be id by a sbmgie autr knocked down. Others were in much danger by the pieces of burning material falling on their heads and clothing. This served to clear toe street, so tnat trie hremen were left masters of the situation.. At 1:30 came a crash resounding like the explosion of a powder magazine. The whole waif on jthe Ann street side had fallen. A cloud of dust and smoke filled the air, making it dark as twilight, and rendering it impossible to descry objects at snort aistance. At 1:45 o'clock the Broadway front of the Museum fell in three. different sections, one after the other; The first to fall was the part parallel with Broadwa which went over in one mass, falling flat on the pavement of the street, and then and not till then breaking up into innumera ble rfrasments. Another section was left in the shape of an elongated triangle, and not unlike the steeple of a church. In a few moments this sunk slowly down, the point still remaining upright and in position until the whole section disappear- J 1 . J?J i - ; A 1 I 1 a. eu. it uiu not appear to ia.ii, uui apparently sun. iJ4.cu the earth. This wais exactly analagous to the fall or sink ing of the spire of Chichester Cathedral in England a few. years ago. . Bu Tne section oi tne iront wau iacmg um. uw, auu a.i a slight deviation from the parallel of Broadway, still re mained, and all eyeB were turned i its direction. It was a very large, nign; portion, rsacmng to tne uppermost story. About five minutes later this great facade careen ed graeef ully over and slowly fell not in among the burn ing ruins but out on Broadway. It fell as a trap-door on a hinge and remained intact until it was smashed upon the pavement, sending up a frightful spray of bricks and mortar, and a vast cloud of rfmoke. This, finished the old Museum.. . The shock caused by the fall of the Museum front seem ed to give a fresh impetus to the flames here, which belch ed forth streaming ! almost across Fuiton street, and en dangering the opposite buildings on the south side. Thence the fire crept east to adjoining houses on the north side of Fulton street, leaving for a while the lower stories of the Knox building comparatively intact. The fire, which had; now extended through the rear, into the shops and warehouses on Fulton and Ann streets, burst forth in the upper stories of several buildings, andi raced with ungovernable tury, and tne nuge sparKs- m any of them as large as a man's band which were nnm on the breeze over the honsesteps and lodged far Hwn through th comthe&cial districts of which the Postoffice is the centre, threatened to extend the disas nHafinitoiv. Ttiifc-t.hfi nceuDants of buildings whereon these firebrands fell poured Croton on their roofs, and spH bv the soarks bevond the burn- ing cf a number of signs and awnings in Fulton and Nas sau streets. - , t , , , , i rtnor.rrf th rnn frh the devoted block sped the volumes of fire until after two o'clock, when the firemen 'succeed yA in Ta r ti.iiv nhftckincthe lames as they daslseor against th wlla of the sixth building from broad way. and nothing remained to be done but to save surrounding nrnnoi . It S A. clock the fire was wholly under, and the following numbered buildings had been totally de stroyed , the walla bf only three being left standing : On Bfoadway Nos, 212 2U, 21, 218, 220 and 122.

If Raleigh has not been so rap id in its patronage of . progressive ideas as some oth er communities, north and south, it has keen the result of that' hostility to harsh utilitarianism which has always been a peculiarity of Southern character rather than any spirit of opposition to true reform or real advancement. VVe have here, however, institutions of learning, charity and humanit of which we are justly proud, and many other things with which we would not part for much that is elsewhere esteemed excellent! And we may justly fe-" licitate ourselves that there has long resided in our ''city of oaks" an artist whose portraits would not discredit like effofsfce of the earlier masters. Our reference is to Mr. W. Carl Brown. Addison said "we find a secret awe and veneration for one who moves about us in a regular and -illustrious course of virtue," and we will recognise the fi delity of the sentiment not less readily if th assertion be extended to embrace the patient and often unremunera tive labors of the artist whose life realizes the Miltonian description of 'Close ambition, varnished o'er with seal" ; an ambition whicb is veiled' with sueh scrupulous modes ty as to be only a shade less beautiful than the magnifi cence of the-portraitures he makes on canvass. His fault is modesty and unostentation in excess, and if possible we would woo him from his secluded to a more conspicuous and appreciable fame. He has genius and skill of high order and North Carolina is proud to own him. We are not certain that his rooms are open to visitors or that he has portraits which may be inspected they rarely remain uncalled for beyond completion but those who wish to see art in sublimity should contrive to see some of the many portraits he has painted. They are worthy the artist and .tke age. Another. Ezekiel Stanley, of Granville county, an elderly gentleman, who came to the city on a market ex pedition, was deprived of a five dollar greenback yester day, in a very cute way. It appears the veteran chicken vender had disposed ef a fowl and received the five dollar nete in payment. He gave change and the purchaser de parted, when another soldier approached and graciously informed Mr. S." that the money he had received was en tirely worthless, a counterfeit of the most bogus order. He further represented himself as a special agent to stop inroads upon law and order, and requested to see the note which had been palmed upon the green 'un. Not ques tioning the disinterested zeal of the blue-back, it was un suspiciously banded to the imaginary detective, who, at" once recognizing its genuineness, made tracks for parts unknown. The patriot-rogue has doubtless before this moment quaffed several glasses of grog through the in vestment of Mr. S.'e fi ve,, probably toasting the memory of the Carolinian who was so easily victimised. This-is tin age of small criminalities and unless a thor oughly bld and summary polioy.is operated against the wrong-doers, the eoadition of society throughout the land will be far more insecure than at any former period of our History, innovations -rarely have, their beginning in a formidabie form ; the approach to great crimes is natu rally through petty offences ; and the safest method of preventing the former is the severe and certain punish ment of the latter. Special Meeting'. We invite attention to the ac tion of the Board of Commissioners, found below, relative to the necessity of the occupation of this city by a mili tary iorce : Ralwqh, July 18, 1865, At aspecial meetiner of the Board of Pdmmi.ninro Raleigh, held this morning, oresent : Wm.

A - ; An account of N. Jolly for table for Mavor's office, for tne sum ot spiiu, was presented and on motion allowed. Un motion, trie Board adjourned. J. J. CHRISTOPHER, CI k. PrOYOSt's Sancjum. The complainants before the Assistant Provost yesterday were, it may be, not so nu merous as on some occasions agone. They were variega ted, however, as usual, arM presented as nany different phases of life a hues of complexion were repiesented. There the snuff-dipper and the tobaccorcheTyer the tem perate and intemperate victim and yictimizcr black and white the dandy and the mendicant all. all stand and each in turn pour out his or her plaint. They are all heard and medicine administered according to the nature and stage of the disease. . For instance : a soldier of the 47th N. Y. infantry, found upon the horse of Lieut. Norton, 4th New Hampshlre.was taken into custody. He stated that a soldier of the 12th New York cavalry had given him permission to ride, say ing that the horse was his. Both were-placed in confine ment to await an investigation of their cases. Mr. Pool, who was deprived of his pistol, Monday even ing, on supposition of its having been purchased without authority from a soldier, had it restored to him, as it was proven to be private property. - . i The patrol arrested Thomas Rogers, 48th New York, on the street at 2 o'clock in the morning, for disorderly con duct, ' The case of rape reported Monday, appeals to be not so bad after all, as the victim is a young woman of very bad reputation and is cow perambulating the streets as of yore. ' Robbery iu Broad Day. The sufferer himself Mr. Jubal Emery, of this county, relates to us that he was robbed of a gold watch , yesterday morning," at.th e 'market house. A soldier deliberately took the time keep- er from him and then made off at a rapid gate, Mr. E. at tempting to overtake him. Aorowd of soldiers, proba bly accomplices oF the light fingered rascal, cut off jbig advance and not only defeated the arrest of the criminal and recovery of the wateh , but one of the aiders and abet tors managed to una some excuse tor toe act and gave- flie unoffending citiaen a flogging. . This narration bears its commeatary on its faoe. i If such flagrant outrages.ean be attempted and consumma ted in broad day-light, in so public plac as the market, we are fallen on evil times. Some steps should be taken and at onee to render such performances perfectly impos sible. ! Mechanics and Workingmeii We havemdn tentkmally omitted to say that at their meeting Saturday last,. at the court-house, the Mechanics and Werkiagmen perfected an organization by electing the- following offi cers: President, R. Dobbin, and Secretary, Jno. N. Bunting, A committee was thereafter appointed -to report some ferm of future and peimaneat combination, after whieh ' an-adjournment was effected.- . We believe that'a large amount "of good can be accom plished if te organization baaed upon judicious princi pies and confined to its proper. sphere of operative influ encebe perpetuated by the general endorsement of the classes interested. Honorable competition is indeed the great spur with which mankind are forced to effort in all pursuits, but we should rely rather upon superiority of capabilities than any mere cheapness for suceess and preferment in all profession With such a spirit anima ting them, mechanics and workingmen may net only find true but accelerated prosperity . . . I Glad to Correct. In stating, in our last issue, the purpose of the military authorities to decline future deliv ery of mail matter to citizens, we derived the information directly from parties connected with the poet-office. It is very agreeable to say that there appears to have5een a misapprehension of facts in the premises. According to present advices the office is'to be changed to another locality and perhaps no other alterations will take place. We are greatly enlarged at finding that our people will not be deprived of the privilege of communing with their friends at a distance ; but while this is true, it is to be hoped that no abatement will be made in efforts to have a regular postmaster appointed. We should not expect or desire the army to do for us what a citizen can and should do. Military. Changes Capt. J. D. Stubb, A. Q. M., whose politeness and attention has rendered him so ac ceptable as quartermaster at this, post, has been relieved and ordered to Newbern to taka charge of U. S. Military Railroad 8 at that point. Lieut. John C. Stubbs accompanies him and Capt. Jas per Hodge takes the position here. We have omitted to say, previously, that the entire Commissary Department at this point has been turned over to Capt. E. L. Lawrence, l. ., an affable officer and thorough business man.
