Ncw reached this piaco on Wednesday morning, of u great aud destructive lire in New York City on the irtorning of the 19th inst. It broke out iu a sperm oil and candle factory in New street, and soon reached a store containing 5000 bags of salt-petre, which exploded wiih av ful effect blowing up many houses iu the neighborhood, and killing a number of person s. The flames immediately spread in all directions, haHing for a time the cffoits of the firemen. The True Sun gives an extended nccouut of the disaster. 300 buildings were destroy ed, consisting of Urge and costly buildings, comprising the most important and valuable part of the town, and the part in which wore mostly congregated the Fiench and German merchants. The loss of meich.mdise is es timated at about two millions of dollars ; aud the whole loss at not less than six millions some ny seven or eight. Of this, over four million') were insured. Sixteen thousand five hundied bales of cotton were destroyed. Some thought that it was the gas woiks that made the great explosion mentioned above, but it was not so. The number of persons killed by ihe cxpIoion and otherwise, hud not been ascertained; though supposed to be about 10 oi 12, besides many others severely iujmed. The haibor for miles w? strewn with frag ments, aud it was with difficulty that the ship ping v us kept from burning. The explosion wan heaid by u gentleman in a steamboat 30 miltis no the i iver. It hook the eaith all tuoutid the v'n inity, ami thiew uumbets of peoplo otV their feet. FOREIGN NKNS, The Britannia ar rived nt Boston mi Jvt'otday morning at fix o'clock. Thj Cambr ia, which left fjoston on the lllh of June, made her passage hi 10 days lti hours, tsaid to be the .-hoileSt passage on record. The Duke of Wellington cele brated the 30th annivemny of the battle of Waterloo, on the 18th of June, by a banquet nt Apsley House, where he Was surrounded by upward of 70 of his coiitpun ions in arms, at that celebrated battle. The prospect of an abundant haivest was good in Great Bi ituin. Theie wa a serious conflict between the country people and the police of Ireland, at the Fair of CaUin-ihassing, on the 30th of June. A light occurred the police interfer edthe mob attacked them, and the police tired several times, killing six and wounding twenty-five. v Cotton had risen iu price one-eighth of a penny, and firm nt that. The Fayetteville whig editor in hi elo quent denunciations of the removals which have been made by Mr Polk, forgets the de claration of Mr Clay, that if the whigs should get into power, scarcely one democratic of fice holder should remain as a monument of '.heir mercy. This declaration was made by Mr Clay, it is said, when he was confident of success. It is on a par with his cfhef declaration at Raleigh, that the democratic candidate might get about four States but wa only ctrlain of two ! Can nuch a man m this expect nuy sympathy from democrats ? Or can his party expect any favors from them ? When the t If-important, domineering spirit of wbiggfery learns to treat democrats as brothers and friends, they will be entitled to the same re spect aud consideration. The democratic State Convention assem bled in Mississippi to nominate State officers, passed a high compliment upou Senator Walk er, now of the Treasury Department, and ex pressed their unshaken confidence iu hiin W ibauk our Reverend friend for the two lost numbers of the Carolinian w hich he for warded by mail. The subscription list of the "Union'' is increasing rapidly under Mr Ritchie's charge. Every body ought to take it that is able. PATRIOTIC. It giyes us' pleasure to credit one of our northern whig friends for thefollowing remaiks,and accompanying toast, on the 4th of July last, in relation to the an nexation of Texas. The sentiments are no blethe language beautiful : " At the celebration of 'the fourth' in Bos ton. R C Wlnthrop, member of Congress from the city, is reported fo have responded to a toast to thb Cougress of the United States, as follows : , . ' He was unwilling to 3ay any thing which might teeni to be iu violation of the political neutrality usually observed ou the occasion of celebratiug the nalioual independence. But he felt constrained to express an opinion up- on a subject wntcn nnd been regarded some what as of a party character. At this moment, he said, there is now assembled a convention in Texas, which w ill this day, in all probabili ty, add another star to the Union. Ho could not say be was prepared to rejoice very warm ly iu such an event; but if it occurred, he would receive the new State wiih feelings of an American citizen, whose duty it is not on ly to stand by his country as it is now, but to static! by his country as it hereafter may be. This was the feeling he would cherish and inculcate with regad to Texas, Oregon, or other accessions of new States and he con cluded wiih the following : " 'Our Country Bounded by the St. John's aud the Sabine, or however otherwise bound ed or described, aud bo the measureim-nts more or less .still our coilnlry ; to be her ished in all our hearty, to be defended by all our hands " These sentiments expressed in Boston, by a Boston inanj prove that mauy of the north ern whigs show more patriotism and love of unity on this great southern question, than many of our southern whigs. We Could point to some southern whigs who do not even shew common sense in their mad opposition to annexation ; we say some ; we believe there are not a majority of the whigs of this character; especially in the country; they 'ive principally iu the towns, and are the most despicable" sort of people. MORE OF THE DISCUSSION. As the elec tion for members of Cougress is close at hand, tte must make much cf the time, iu shewing Mr Haughtou's positions on the great questions, and contrasting them with those of the democratic candidate, Mr Dob bin. We think we shewed hi.t week that he did not make good his position on the Tariff. We wi;h now to examine his position on the Oregon question. Ho was opposed, he said to giving Great Britain notice that we wished the joint occu pancy to cease- He was opposed to it be cause it would certainly produce a war. Great Biitain, he says, Would immediately send her forces to the country nnd occupy it. We hall shew how preposterous is this argu ment It was agreed upon betweeu the two countries in a written treaty, that they should jointly occupy and Use the Oregon until one or the other should be desirous that the claims should be finally settled, or that the joint occu pancy should cease ; in which case either par ly should give the other twelve mouths1 no'ice. Now, is it common" sense to suppo-e that these two nation.-, both undoubtedly having pacific intentions, would enter into r. treaty, and make therein provision for the abrogation of that treaty, if either had the remotest idea that thai 'abrogation would be the cause of war: ouiu any t wo inaniuuais, unrguoor ing farmers, in a dispute about a piece of pas tu'e land.j but desirous of settling the dispute amicably, would they agree that their Mock should jointly graze ou it for a certain time, or such time as they should de.-ire to settle it, if they knew that when they came to end this arrangemontr a fight would u tne conse quence ? Certainly not. Iheielore, we think Mr Hdughto'h s position Is not sustniued by sound reason. If the Uiiited States say to England, as the treaty declares they may say whenever they choose, ' We wish uow to settle this claim ;o this territory, and as the treaty pro vides, we hereby give you 12 mouths' notice that ie wish the joiut occupancy to cense; you retire to your undisputed part of the ter ritory, and we will retire to our undisputed part, and we will enter into a negotiation for settling the claim." Reason and common sense tell us that this course could be no cause of war. Aud therefore wo think Mr Dobbiu's and the derhecratic party's policy on this subject is dictated by common sense aud reason ; aud the course of the whig party we ihiuk is only conceived in a spirit of op position, without either rhyme or reason to justify them. We must give Mr Haughton credii for his candor in boldly declaring his preference for n a United States Bauk. There are not man v vhig candidates candid enough, or bold enough, or green enough; to declare (hem selves in favor of a U. S. Bauk after the ex posure of the corruptions which were practis ed by the old Bank. Some hard-faced whigs w ill say that no one ever lost a cehl by (he U. States Bauk. They may tell that to (he ma rines. Let any one ask otir merchants if no loss was ever sustained by it. One of them has frequently told us that he could shew whether or uot any person ever lot by it, aud icho it was that lost. Yet the whigs consider it one of their gieatest arguments iu favor of a Bank. We deem it uft necessary to gay another word as to his position on the Bank, as one of Mr H.'s own patty has pro nounced it, what the people long ago hate condemned it as, t( an obsolete idea.,: The election for members of the 29th Con gress will take place on the 1st Thuisdny, the 7th of August next. MANUFACTURER'S - PROFITS.- A.1TAKE.--Ia the, last, Observer, we I We are informed upon authority which can- find the following paragraph in-au article un- not be doubted, and which can be producea if necessary, that a woollen factory iu New Jerscy has been making- equal to llo Per cent for the last 12 mouths ! Is not that coiu ing money by the cord ? Mr Dobbin in his speech here said that the manufacturers were making "10, 15,20 and 25 per cent a year;" but ihe tariff" Journal, the -Observer stoutly denied that they made any such profits except in a few individual cases. xSow w hat will be thought of that Journal which denies that the manufacturers make these profits meutioued by Mr Dobbin, when it is admitted by a manufacturer that he would not take 115 per cent for his operations of the last year ? Surely there should be some de pendence placed in a public Journal, but can one that will quibble as the Observer does be depended upou? And this case we have mentioned above is not nn individual case. Even here in the south, the Petersburg Intelligencer publishes that a factory at that place, has just paid a semi-annual dividend of 8 per cent.; 16 per cent a year; and again, the Merrimack fac tory, as we see by the papers, has declared au extra dividend of i0 per cent, besides funas enough to build another factory. And yet the Oaserver tells its readers that " now nnd then, perhaps one ca.e iu a hundred," Mr Dobbin may be correct '. We ask seriously if such a journal can be depended upon for correct in formation ? DISTRIDU HON. The Observer, iu remarking upou Mi Dobbiu's objections to the policy and principle of distributing the proceeds of the public lands among the States, snys that " Gen. Jackson was originally the decided ad orate of Distribution, as his two first Messages lo Congress clearly show." It is tiuej Gen. Jackson advocated "distri bution"; but of what? Not of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands. His Mes sages do not shew that he ever advocated auy such thing. He ifetrhrhehded the distribu tion of the " surplus revenue." He recom mended it in his first Massage, as being pro bably the most preferable way of getting rid of it. He recommended it also expressly under the belief that no alteration of tho fheu existing tariff would be then made, which would materially lessen the reveuue; We do not think'it can be shewn that Genl. Jackson Over advocated or recommended the distribu tion of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands. And certain we are, and we invite proof to the contrary, that no democratic President ever recommended "Distribution" of auy sort, when there was not enough of mouey in the Treasury to cairy on the Government ; like the whigs did in 1941 and 2; We defy the invention of man to point out a more a'jsurdj ridiculous, nnd duwise policyj than that of distributing money to the States from the public Treasury, when there was not money enough in the Treasury to Carry ou the Government and pay the pub lic debts. Yet this is the policy advocated arid pursued by Henry Clay and his paity in the Congress of 1841 &. 2, and sustained of cour.e) by his party presses throughout the country. Gen. Jackson in his gecond Message said that while he still thought that to distribute the surplus revenue among the States would be the preferable way of getting clear of it, yet it had beeu objected to ; aud he enumerated some of the objections ; among which were "an apprehension that the existence of such a regulation would produce an improvident and oppressive taxation to raise the funds for dis tributibn " and ' would create h discreditable and injurious dependence ou the part of the State Governments upon the federal power." Iu his third annual Message, he recom mended a reduction of the tariff, and says not a word about "distribution." dei the head of " Mr Haushtoii at Raleigh." We give it entire that Mr H. may make his own standing ou the question : " Next the Texa question, and took occa sion to correct an error into which the Editor of the Democratic-paper at Fayetteville had falleu. That prist, had represented him as saying, tha.Uipou thk subject his sentiments bad undergone a change that charge he most positively and indignantly denied. Ou the contrary, he said that he stiil was most uu compromisiugly opposed to annexation, as he had always been, and that were the question again to be agitated was it again and anew submitted to the people, he should use all his efforts and whatever ability God might ive him, in opposition to it, because be thought it fraught with danger and injury ; but now, since Cougress had passed a law for its ad mission, it was his duty, as a law-loving and law-abiding citizen, to yield to that law his most implicit obedience and support, until the proper tribunal should prouounce it unconsti tutional, h is a question which has been taken from tho political arena; aud is now a purely national one a supreme law of the laud, and to which we are bound to adhere." W'e saw that the Fayetteville Obseiver charged us with misrepresenting Mr Haugh. ton ; but we took no notice of if, bein s6 like most of his other attacks. Mr Haughton, we suspect, took the Ob server's word for it, without looking at our pa per. We will quote for him exactly what we repoited him to say, to wit : " Mr Haughton replied, iu answer to Mr Dobbiu's question whether he was for or against annexation, that no man in the country was more oppos ed to it than he; yet, as it had become the law of ihe land, .,o far as the United States were cdncerued, he had nothing to say against it, nnd would not vote for o repeal of the joint resolution, were he elected to Congress ! ! ! " It will bo seen by the report of Mr II. 's re marks at Raleigh, as quoted above from the Observer, that we reported him uearly the same as ihe Observer's correspondent. We did not intend to assert or to insinuate that Mr H. had changed his views upon the sub ject ; but when we said " who could have pre dicted six months ago that such would be the auswer of a whig Candidate for Congress at this day," we alluded to the fact that he de claredj if elected, he would ubt vote to repeal the resolution. He has now somewhat chang ed his positiou, aud says, (taking the cue from thejNew York Tiibune,) that he would yield support to the resolution, until the "proper tribunal should pronounce it unconstitutional." Ifanyofour readers construed us to mean that Mr Haughton had changed, and was now IU favor of annexation, we beg leave to say .L.-...L 1 1 ... ... uiiii mey nave misiaKeti our meauins. vrc depeud upon Mr Haughton's Uncompromis ing opposition " td annexation, to give Mr JJoUbiu twd cfr three hundred w-hig votes. A SCARE CROW About th ee weeks ago, the New Orleans papers published the proclamation of ihe Presideut of Mexico, which proclamation stated that the Uuited States had resolved to incorporate Texas with the American Union, that such a proceeding was a monstrous novelty, a usurpation, a trampling on the conservative principles of societyj nu insult to Mexican dignity! &c, &c, and the President consequently "decreed " that Mexico "calls upon all her children to the defence of her national rights, aud the government will call to arms all the forces of tho army," &c, &c. Tho proclamation is note going the rounds of the whig papers, (properly speaking, tonj papers,) and is shewn as au evidence that Mexico is thirsty for blood, and that war is proclaimed in effect, if not actually; These whig papers must think the Ameri cans a Very cowardly, fearful people ; or else they are hard run tor a little political capital.

We hope that the people of North Carolina, will reject this unwise policy which imprudent counsellors would urge upon them. The State has other and more important uses for her money than supporting murderers and robbers to keep them from hanging. She has a higher duty to perform to her uneducated children, her blind, and deaf, and dumb, and insane. She has them to provide for ; and we hope she will perform this duty and not spend her money in taking care of the reck less criminals, whose career of crime shuts them out from any such consideration, at least until the just named more worthy classes have been provided for. 00- The thermometer, was 148 degrees iu the sun, in Boston, a few days ago.
