FIRES IN LONDON.—The number of fires that have taken place in the metropolis and its suburbs since the commence ment of the year, according to the records kept by the brigade authorities, amount to more than 300. The loss of life is happily not so great as formerly, which is attributed to the judicious course pur sued by the superintendent of the force, in providing every con stable of the metropolitan police with printed instructions for his guidance on discovering fire. The most important injunction is that of keeping all doors and windows closed until the arrival of the brigadernen and engines. To THE SPORTING WORLD.—The sale of Bell's Life in London exceeds twenty-four thousand. Bell's Life is published at 170, Strand, every Saturday, in time for the afternoon railways. Beira Life, May 17, will contain a full report of the pugilistic contest between GMI and Norley. SERIOI7B ACCIDENT 'WITH GIINPOWDER.—Yesterday afternoon a distressing accident occurred to a lad named James Cooper, aged ten years, the son of respectable parents, residing at 17, Jane-terrace, Isabtlla•strcet, Waterloo-road. It appeared that he was making fireworks, and, while mixing up the combustibles in a mortar, the whole contents suddenly ignited with a loud report, forcing out the windows of the room, and frightfully disfiguring the poor boy, 'who was taken up quite insensible from the effect of the explosion.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY, MAY 12. Important accounts from Washington to the 21st ult., and from New York to the 23d inclusive, have been received this day by the packet ship Liverpool, Capt. Eldridge. We learn by these advices that the Oregon notice passed by the Senate had been amended by the House of Represen tatives. The amended form was rejected by the Senate, then insisted upon by the House, and, ultimately, committees of conference were appointed by the two Houses to compromise the dispute. The members of the Senate Committee were Messrs. Berien, Hayward, • and Corwin ; those of the House, Messrs. Ingersoll, Owen, and Hilliard. The amendments of the House of Representatives were as follow: Where, in the Senate resolution, one object of giving the notice was declared to be, " that the attention of the two Governments may be more earnestly and immediately de voted to renewed efforts for the amicable adjustment of all their differences and disputes in respect to said territory," the House substituted—" be the more earnestly directed to the importance of a speedy adjustment of all their differences and disputes in respect to said territory." The word " amicable," it will be observed, is here stricken out. The second section of the Senate resolution authorises the President, at his dis cretion, to give the notice; the House proposes to authorise and request the President to give the notice—the phrase " at his discretion," beinisbstricken out. Should the Committee of Conference fail to arrive at an understanding, and the Senate still refuse to " recede" from its disagreement, the notice will entirely fail. On the 18th ult. the Oregon Occupation Bill passed the House of Representatives in the following amended shape— ayes, :03 ; nays, 46 : " A Bill to protect the rights of American settlers in the ter ritory of Oregon until the termination of the joint occu pation of the same. " Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the territory of lowa, and the laws of said territory, so far as the same may be applicable, as they now exist, are hereby extended over all that portion of the territory of the United States which lies west of the Rocky Mountains ; and also over all that portion of the intermediate country west of the Missouri river, and between the 40th and 43d parallels of north lati tude. Provided, that this Act shall not be construed nor exe cuted in such a manner as to deprive the subjects of Great Britain of any of the rights and privileges secured by the treaty signed in London, October 20, 1818, and continued in force by the treaty of August 6. 1827. " Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, that all the country described in the first section of this Act shall constitute one judicial district, and a district court shall be held therein by the judge to be appointed under this Act, at such times and places as he shall designate; and the said court shall possess all the powers and authority vested in the present district courts of the said territory of lowa. An additional justice of the supreme court of the territory of lowa shall be appointed, who shall hold his office by the same tenure, receive the same corn' )ensation, and possess the same powers and authority as are conferred by law upon the other justices of the said court, and who shall hold the district courts in the said district as aforesaid. " Sec. 3. And be it further enacted, that the President be hereby authorised to appoint the requisite number of jus tices o:f the peace and such Ministerial officers as shall be necess; iry for the due execution of the laws: Provided, that any subject of Great Britain who shall be arrested under tha provisi ons of this Act, for crime alleged to have been com mitted within the territory of the United States west of the Rocky Mountains, while the same remains free and open to the vessels, citizens, and subjects of the United States and of Great Britain, pursuant to stipulations between the two Powers, shall be delivered up fof trial, on proof of his being such :British subject, to the nearest and most convenient authorities having cognisance of such offence by the laws of Great Britain. " S ec. 4. And be it further enacted, that provision shall hereafter be made by law to secure and grant to every white person, male or female, over the age of 18 years, 320 acres of land; and to every white person, male or female, under the nos of 18 years, 160 acres of land, who shall have resided in the , said territory described in the first section of this Act for five consecutive years, to commence withi n th ree y ears from the pas sage o f this ' Act ; provided, the said land ,shall be located in said territory. "See. 5. And be it further enacted, that there shall be ap pointeec, in the manner provided by law for similar officers, a superintendent of Indian affairs, and such Indian agents and snb-agents as shall be necessary for the public interests, to whom may be entrusted, under the direction of the Presi dent, and in accordance with the existing laws, so far as they may be consistent with the purport of this Act, the regula tion of trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes, and the execution of the laws herein extended over the country de scribed in the first section of this Act. "Sec. 6. And be it further enacted, that the President be, and he is hereby authorised to cause to be erected such block houses, stockades, or military posts, as shall be necessary to protect emigrants, settlers, and traders, on the route to and in the territory of O regon , against Indian depredations and aggressions, and to furnish such ammunition and supplies as shall be necessary to their defence. " Sec. 7. Be it further enacted, that a post route be esta blished from Fort Leavenworth, vid Grand Island, on the Platte river, Fort Laramie, the South Pass of the Rocky Mountains, Fort Hall, Fort Boise, Fort Wallawalla, and Oregon city, on the Willamette river, to Astoria, at the mouth of the Columbia river, on the Pacific Ocean. " Sec. 8. And be it further enacted, that it shall be the duty of the Postmaster-General to cause the United States mail to be transported on the said route from Fort Leaven worth to Astoria and back, at least once a month, by such means of conveyance as he may deem most advantageous to the public service, and on the best terms that can be obtained by contract, in the mode now provided by law for the trans portation of the United States mail. Provided, that if, in the opinion of the President of the United States, it be expe dient to cause the mail on the route aforesaid to be carried by detachments of mounted men in the service of the United States, he may order the said mail to be carried in that way, instead of having it transported by contract, as above provided. " Sec. 9. And be it further enacted, that the sum of 100,000 dolls. be, and the same is hereby, appropriated to carry the provisions of this Act into effect." (From the New York Sun.) OREGON NOTICE. —The Senate resolutions, in dissolving a treaty which had preserved peace between the two Govern ments for twenty-eight years, expressed an opinion favour able to the "amicable" adjustment of the disputes which must of necessity grow out of the abrogation of that treaty; and they also left the notice in the hands of the President, who has charge of the negotiation, and is therefore best able to judge of the proper time for giving it. But the House of Re presentatives struck out the clause favourable to an amicable adjustment of disputes, and COMMANDED the President to give the notice. The Senate resolutions, in matter and form, were not adopted hastily or unadvisedly. They were the result of council, deliberation and understanding. The majority had agreed that a notice of some kind ought to be adopted, to settle the question definitely, and not leave it open to future contingencies. Above all, the Senate wished to save the American people from the very deli cate position in which an agitation of the question and the movements of political parties might hereafter place the country. The Government has full power to act in the mat ter now, but leave the question unsettled to the next presi dential election ; let us have a war candidate and a peace candidate, with direct issues before the people, and what will be the result ? In November, 1848, the people will vote for a President—for war or peace—the whole of Oregon or none -49 or 54 40 ! The result of that election, sup posing it favourable to war and 54 40, will be known in England sometime in December, three months before the successful party comes into office ; and does any man in his senses suppose that England would wait for us to carry out the policy thus sanctioned by the people? No, while we lay comparatively helpless, without preparation of any kind, she would be prepared, and the laws of nations would autho rise her to strike. Although the first blow would be severe, we know our people too well to doubt their ability to inflict terrible and tenfold retribution upon the enemy. But when would such a struggle terminate ? Not in three, nor five, nor ten years. It would be a long and bloody contest, which other nations and other tongues would reap the benefit of. While America and England were de stroying each other, other nations would be built up by the ruin of the British empire, or the poverty of the American republic. Here, then, is the evil which the Senate wished to guard against, and the resolutions they proposed had the sanction of those best acquainted with the posi • tion and probable results of the negotiation, including the Executive himself. A fearful responsibility now rests upon the Senate. That branch of the Government must adhete to the position it assumed with so much deliberation and forethought. Questions like the Oregon, which belong only to the treaty making power, should never b e b roug ht into the arena of party politics, and we "look to the Senate," with confidence in its wisdom, for some movement calculated to bring this matter to a close at an earlier day than that contemplated even by the giving of the notice. A rumour from the frontier, similar to the one we gave yesterday, is alluded to by the New Orleans Picayune of the 14th. An attempt was made in New Orleans to give currency to an impression that an action had taken place and our troops defeated, but it was treated with derision. As to the Congressional elec tion in Texas, thus far, Williams has 968, Pellsbury, 861; Cooke, 804. Captain Haiglier, formerly a member of the Texian Congress from San Patricio, was shot through the heart by a Mr. Pool at Goliad. Pool was arrested. It was said to have been in an affray. The charges against Mr. Webster had fallen into universal discredit, and had recoiled upon Mr. Ingersoll with most damaging effect. On the 20th ult. a message was received from the President, in the House, in response to the resolution calling for the accounts of the disbursements of the secret service fund, which Mr. Webster was accused of having appropriated in part to his own use, and in part applied to improper purposes. The • President refused to send the accounts' vouchers, and replied that by a law of 1810 this fund had been used by the President, upon his certificate only, without any account or statement of the object ; that the amount used during Mr. Webster' administration of the State Depart ment was only 5,169 dolls.; that he could send President Tyler's certificates, upon which the money was drawn, but that they would furnish no means whatever of judging of the propriety of the expenditure, or even of its objects. In a case of impeachment a Committee could examine the con fidential papers, but the executive would not, upon any light occasion, allow them to be published, for it would destroy the object of the fund. He had not yet used any of the fund, but should not hesitate to do it if occasion required. No President would use the fund except in extreme cases. Mr. Ingersoll then alleged that Mr. Webster proposed a special mission to settle the Oregon question and make a commercial treaty. Mr. Webster had denied this, and Mr. Adams, being appealed to declared as chairman at that time of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, that Mr. Ingersoll's allegations were utterly untrue and unfounded. The affair ended in the President's message establishing the failure of Mr. Ingersoll's charges being printed. The President, in 'a message communicated to the House Fund called t f h or e by Mr. Ingersoll. e ft rv li i n ce ed Fun to of information relation the o s t h , raedt Service The prospects of the Sub• Treasury Bill in the Senate had assumed a doubtful aspect ; and it was thought that, should it pass that body, it would be in an amended and ame liorated form. The New York Chamber of Commerce had petitioned against it. No advance had been made with the Tariff Bill. The American journals publish, in extenso, the correspond ence which has passed between the Mexican Executive and Mr. Slidell. The documents add nothing to material to the information we already possess. _ _ " By the latest accounts from the army of Occupation," says the New York Herald of the 23d ult. : " We learn that the Mexican army is now 8,000 strong and continually increasing. To oppose this large force we have about 3,000 men, who, by daily desertion and sickness, are decreasing fast. To increasb our difficulties, the Mexican authorities have committed an act which, in all probability, will lead to a general engagement between the two armies. It appears that two men, who were the videttes thrown out by the advanced guard of dragoons, have been captured by the Mexicans ; and, on being demanded by General Worth, who proceeded with a flag of trace for the purpose, the Mexican officers who answered him declined to convey any propositions to their commander until the American army should withdraw from its present position. This, of course, was not done. Meanwhile the greatest activity appeared to prevail in the Mexican camp. Four redoubts were thrown up in one day and one night, in expectation, no doubt, of a general engagement." The New Orleans papers mention a rumour that General Taylor, in au action with the Mexican forces, had sustained a defeat. The statement was entirely discredited. The Caldedonia had arrived at Boston on the 20th ult. ,The Unicorn had left that port for Halifat on the preceding day. Lake Champlain was clear of ice, and navigation Wi shortly be resumed. 1 Our accounts from Canada are of much importance, and bring reports of a probable resignation of the Ministry, in consequence of an adverse majority in the House of Assembly. The House was in Committee on the proposed repeal of the duty of 3s. per quarter now levied on wheat from the United States, such repeal having been suggested in a dispatch from the home Government. The Ministry advocated the repeal. A postponement of the subject, moved by Mr. Merritt, was opposed by the Ministry, but carried by a majority of 7; whereupon Mr. Draper, the Attorney- General, moved that the House adjourn, in order that he might have time to consult with his colleagues as to the course they should pursue. The papers anticipate a resig nation, as we have said, but those which support the Ministry express their belief that it will not be accepted by Lord Cathcart. NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.
