Flaz.—About eight o'clock last evening a fire broke out at the great depot of naval stores, oppo site the Cofferhousr-slip, on Long Island. In a few minutes several stores and sheds, filled with naval stores, &c. were in a vivid blaze. The illu mination was sublimely grand, and on the city side attracted an wieniblage of thousands of spectators, who filled our wharfs and stores on the river side, and hundreds were seen on the hills in the rear of the flames. The wind was very light from S.S.W. end the flames received but little aid which was not derived from the combustibility of several thousand barrels of naval stores, which, like the lava of Mount Vesuvius, spread a most interesting sheet of fire over un extensive wharf to the river, and pre sented • most splendid blaze to the serfirce of the water. The curling smoke, rendered brilliant on its edge by the blaze beneath, was au exhibition which requires powers more able than we possess to describe ; and the only regret on the occasion, which was general, is, that much valuable property is destroyed. The stores were principally owned by Mr. Henry Waring, and were rented by Captains Waite and Merry, who had on storage the property of numerous individuals: It was not in our power last evening to obeairs rurther particulars. 'Since the above was in type, we learn the pro perty destroyed includes Thomas Armstrong's por t ter-house and store-yard ; Mrs. Varideveer's porter house ; J. Tuttle's dwelling-house ; and the stores or Wiring and Kimberly. It is supposed that the buildings contained about 1,400 bales of cuttou, and 12,000 barrels naval stores. The naval stores may be estimated at about 24,000 &tilers, and the cotton tit about 56,000 dollars ; making a loss, in cluding the buildines, of shout 100,000 d o ll a r s . The brick store of Messrs. Waring and Kimberly, full of cutter, is the rally building which was not laid in ashes. It is not known how the fire oil ginsied, but presumed to be the work of an in cendiary. (From the Baltimore Patriot, of holy 19.) FIRE.—The large three-story brick warehouse, at the corner of High and Bridge -streets, well stocked with dry goods, hardware, &c. belonging to Major William Stansbury. was totally destroyed by fire this morning. The concussion produced by the explosion of gunpowder, which burst off the doors and aiiidoas, mid threw some goods into the street, gave the first alarm about one o'clock. Insurance on dry goods had been effected for 15,000 dollars, on landware 10,000 dollar., on gro ceries 5,000 dollars, and on the store e,BOO dollars. Conjectures are various as to the origin of this con. flagration : but there are strong indications, as it is said, of its being the work of incendiaries. Mr. Joshua Gorsuch's store on Bri•lge-street was considesublv damaged. Two frame houses on High-street were torn down, and several other. much injured. EW TORN.

It is stmt. d in a.Mioisterial Paper, the Qnotidinme. that the conversion of the sanitary cordon into an array of observation on the southern frontier, is for the purpose of seconding the determination of the Congress of Verona. This is • direct admission that the internal afEiirs of Spain will he a principal subject of discussion in that Assembly. The mis sion of Sir WILLIAst A'CouaT, as Minister Pleni potentiary of England to the Court of Madrid, de rives peculiar interest hum this circumstance, as af fording a proof of this country bring in perfect amity with the constitutional Government of Spain, which appears to be viewed with fear and jealousy by the Holy Alliance. New York Papers to the 2511, of August have arrived. We are happy to had that the account of the recent fire in that city was greatly exaggerated. It broke out in a depot of cotton and naval stores, which, with several others, was consumed. The total loss is not estimated at n►ore than 100,000 dollars. From the combustible nature of the mat. ter, the fire presented a most awfully splendid up. pesrance, which induced an apprehension that the extent of the calamity was much greater than it really war. A very destructive fire also took place at Balti more on the 19th August. in which much merchan. dize was destroyed. In both cases the fire was pre sumed to be the work of an incendiary. The yellow fever, acco►ding to the last Report of the Board of Health, still menaced New York with its continuance. " The Custom House," says the /Valiance: Advocate of the 24th August, " has moved, ■nd arrangements, it is said, are making for the removal of the Banks and Post Office. They had better all go together, than one at a time, because the business will move with these institutio►s. The alarm down town yesterday was excessive, and if the excitement is kept up. that part of the city will be greatly thinned. Those who have no business, and can go out of town, can have no excuse in staying below. The Board of Health continues advised on all ease*, and is determined to do what is right, and full confidence may be placed on its Reports. The Mantun' are vigilant. and danger will not be concealed." These Papers contain au interesting account of the first Legislative proceeding in the newly-acquir. ed possessions of Florida. The inauguration of the Lord Mayo► and Sheriffs of Dublin took place on Monday last. In the eves. hag his Lordship gave a splendid banquet at the Mansion -horse to the Lord Lieutenant, end venni personages of distinction. The pleasures of the day suffered no alloy from any ebullition of that potty spirit which disturbed the harmony of some late similar scenes. In the hat of appropriate toads there is one which will be read with peculiar satis faction. It is the acknowledgment of the megnaui mous end besetrolent exertions of this country fo► the relief of the distress I. Ireland. What a pies.. log substitute was this expression of gratitude and affection for any of those party toasts which has e an often excited the angry passions, converted a scene of festivity into a scene of strife, and kept alive tortillas distinctions and jealousies: On the health of the Lord Lieutenant being drank, his Excellency, In returning thanks, took credit for steering the Country through the calamity With which it was re cently afflicted. His Excellency is entitled to the praises of having done every thing in his pdwer to suppress the outrages dnd alleviate the &tress with which the country hie been visited, but Wilier he has not yet steered it through the calamity. Many of the acknowledged causes of the distress remain, and may to a certain extent reptoduce the same effect in the ensuing reason; and the spirit of outrage, we lament, has itgain made its appeirinee in the south. In the former case nothing but-pal; believe have been applied—in the latter coercion: but hod coercion been a cure, the disease would have ceased jo exist a century ago. When the relations between landlord and tenant shall hove approached the state that prevails in England—when the cynics: sion of the tithe system shall have ceased, and religion shall become ■ bond of union, and not a sword to divide the Roman Catholic from his neigh bour—then, indeed, his Excellency may congra tulate himself and his friends on having steered the country through its calamity. At the late Corporation dinner at Lynn, the Marquis of TITCHFIELD declared, that the acces sion of his relative, Mr. CANNING, to office, will cause no change in his political conduct, or pos aibly have the slightest eflict upon the performance of the great ditties which he owes to his consti tuents. We hare read this declaration with pecu liar pleasure; at the same time we acknowledge, that from the iudependeot character uniformly maintained by this amiable yelling Nobleman, the course which he has prescribed for himself w pre cisely what the country had a right to expect. Yesterday afternoon, at a quarter before fire o'clock. his MAJESTY left Carlton Palace in hi. t►avelling carriage ■nd four fur his cottage at Windsor. We understand that his MAJILITIP wrote a most eaciotaa invitation to the Martinis CONYNEHAIII, requesting his presence at Carlton Hume. The Noble Marquis, in consequence, immediately sailed for England to attend his MAJCSVT.—(DabIia Morning Post.) The following intelligence from Quebec, relative to the overland expedition to the Arctic Ocean, tinder the direction of Lieutenant FaAPILLIN, is interesting. It would seem from this account,. if correct, that in August, 1921. Captain Pau?, who entered by Hudson's Bay, had not sdvanetd far to the westward : " QUEIVC, •vovl7 17. " Through the politeness of a derstirolaa who has jolt arrived from a diatom port in the north.west ue have received intelligence that the expedition which was Sited out by the direction of the Admiralty, in the sammer of ISIS, under the orders of Lieutenant Franklin, was oa its mars to Hodson's Bay " The expedition advanced ot near to the Copper Mine River i■ the followiwg year, as the approaching wiater would permit ; and in the spring of the last year, having embarked the tauten which they had tarried over land, they descended that river until it discharges itself into the Hyprrhoreas, or Flowen Ocean. The expedition then marmited is the exeratioa of its ulterior object, Namely, to explore the coast of t►e Puler Sea, from she =oath of the Copper Wee River sound to Betimes Bay. This, however, it wash/ appear, from the info►matino we have been able to collect, it could not farther effect than by someying a few headrest miles of the coast to the northward and eastward, the winter having set In towards the latter end of August with such eternity, as to oblige the party to return. It does not ap pear, from the arrangement which was made, that landmarks should be placed by either Captain Parry or Lieutenant Frauklin, as they should ant arrive at certain potties as they proceeded; or that the former had reached so far at the party of the latter. Several deaths had occurred; among Vthotn were Mr. Wood, sine Canadians, sod one Eseiteunsies. " It is stated, from observation made in this expedition, that the month of the Copper Mine River titters by several degrees of latitude from Ilia( laid down by Wars." Letters have been received from Bahia dated July 26. They mention Butt the place was in a formidable state of defence, and one ktter sap, that if attacked. it will cost the essailanta a few thousand men.
