Destructive Fire this Day.

This morning, about four o'clock, a fire broke out
in the premises in the occupation of Messrs. King
and Co., printers, Savoy-street, Strand. The print-
ing-offices were of a very extensive description, and
filled with a valuable stock and machines of a very
superior description.
,The alarm was raised by
Henry Stacey, who saw the fire first making its
appearance beneath the front entrance. In a mo-
ment or two after the alarm was given two of the
men, who were then engaged at work on the upper
floor, made their appearance at the windows, im-
ploring help. A man named Mahony had the pre-
sence of mind to run to the fire-escape station on

the outbreak of the fire, and by the fortunate arrival
of the machine the lives of the two men were saved.
The stock of printing materials, &c., were entirely
destroyed.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A WIFE CHARGED WITH STABBING HER HUSBAND
—Ellen Bennett was charged before Mr. Knox
with the following assault on her husband, Thomas
Bennett, a tailor, living at 7, Tower-street, Seven
Dials.
The prosecutor said that about 11 o'clock the
previous night his wife came home, and a few words
took place between them, and she seized a poker
with the intention of striking him. The poker was
taken from her, and she then seized the tongs, and
on them being taken from her, she stabbed him in
the face, near the eye, either with a key or a pair of
scissors. To escape from any further violence at her
hands, he jumped out of the window. A constable
came up and he told him what had occurred, and
afterwards gave his wife into custody.
Police-constable Stiles,l6B C, said the prosecutor
came up to him in Tower-street last night, and
told him that he had been stabbed in the eye by a
woman. He went to No. 7, Tower-street, but
the room door was refused to be opened by the
persons inside, and he had therefore to break it
open. He took the prisoner into custody and all
the persons in the room—the persons the prose-
cutor stated to have taken the poker and tongs
from the prisoner, who said they knew nothing about
the matter. _ _

Waav
The prisoner said she went home and her husband
abused her, and she struck him with a key which
she had in her hand at the time.
Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, and ordered
summonses to be issued for the attendance of the
persons who were in the room at the time the
assault took place ; consenting, however, to take
bail for the prisoner.

the bark Rowena ; on July 9 she was off Nantucket, and
next heard of about eight hundred miles east of Cape

sailed from Charleston about June 1, 1861, under com-
mand of J. Harrison Baker, who captured the brig Joseph,
bound from Honduras for Philadelphia, with a cargo of
sugar, &c. She accompanied the Joseph to Georgetown
bar, and on June 3, was captured by the United States
brig Perry, and sent with prize crew to New York, where
she was subsequently sold. She carried one eighteen
pound gun, and her capture created much excitement, as
her crew was at first held as pirates, though subsequently
released.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The letter of " Celto-Greek," which ap-
peared in your columns on the 9th inst., drew my
attention to the present price of currants in Eng-
land. I have made inquiries, and find that in Lan-
cashire, and other poor but populous districts; cur-
rants are in great demand, mothers of families, as
" Celto-Greek" suggested, making them a means of
supplementing the scarcity caused by the high price
of butchers' meat. But the present price of currants

-4d. to 6d. per lb.—is really too high for the
working classes. I have made minute inquiries in
the proper quarters, and find that the import duty
charged on currants is at present equivalent to 40s.
Is not so high an impost upon an article of such
general consumption in this country contrary to the
spirit of free trade ? And is it not the bounden
duty of the Legislature to remove every impedi-
ment that stands between the people and the cheap
enjoyment of what has become a traditional article
of English fare at this season, and which, in the
present state of the meat market, would add so ma-
terially to the comfort of many poor families ?—I
remain, Sir, your obedient servant,

ECONOMIST.

The Debt of the United States.

_.. --.m - --- --

The following statement pertaining to the debt and re-
sources of the United States of America was prepared and
read at a large and influential meeting of bankers and
others at Frankfort-on-the-Maine, on the 14th September
last, by J. F. D. LANIER, of New York, a banker of great
experience in the finances of America, and in the confidence
of the Treasury Department at Washington. Although
the statement of American finance made by Mr. LANIER
extends only to the end of August last, his exhibit is so
plainly and intelligibly written, and presents so clear aview
of the financial condition of the United States, that we
cannot resist the inclination to publish it in our columns:
The amount of the public debt of the United States of
America on the Ist day of August last was about two
thousand seven hundred and twenty millions of dollars, of
which $1,108,000,000 is payable in gold, $1,053,000,000 in
the legal currency of the country.

The most careful and liberal estimate of the Fiscal
Department of the Government fixes the ultimate war debt
at three thousand millions of dollars.

The immediate resources of the Government for the year
closing the 30th of June last were from customs, internal
revenue, &c., $318,251,589 10c., of which $82,000,000 was
in gold from customs.
The estimated receipts for the fiscal year ending the
30th of June, 1866, is : _ _

Dols.
From customs, in coin
Internal revenue 300,000,000
Lands and miscellaneous

Making a total of 396,000,000

The annual charge of this fund, estimating the interest
on $3,000,000,000 of debt, cannot exceed $165,000,000,
leaving an excess of revenue for other purposes of

$231,000,000.
The above estimate was made in June last. Since that
period, such has been tho rapid increase of customs that
receipts from that source are more likely to reach

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Dec. 15.—Shipping yarns have
been quiet to-day since the arrival of American
commercial advices, but very strong. With spinners
under heavy contracts, some of them deeply en-
gaged for weeks forward, there is a strong feeling
among many producers that high prices will be
maintained. So far as could be ascertained there
has been no giving way among shipping spinners.
In home trade yarns there has been a steady mar-
ket, but with rather less business doing. There has
been very little change in prices. The finer counts
of yarn are the scarcer, and there seems to be a good
demand for them, and they are difficult to purchase
for immediate delivery. The cloth market was more
sensibly affected by the China's advices than that
for yarns. It entirely checked the advance of prices,
and led to operations to-day being almost sus-
pended. There is, however, very little disposition, on
the other hand, to make any concession in prices.
Manufacturers are generally so well engaged, and
there is such an entire absence of stocks, that, as
we can see, the depression amounts to very little in
actual reduction of prices. Makers are more eager
now to accept the offers placed before them earlier
in. the week, but they show no disposition to tempt
business by lowering their quotations. Although
we close with but a small business, there is no great
general change, or apprehension of a great fall in
values. Both at Liverpool and in this market we
close with less actual depression than was expected
in the morning, when the steamer's news first came
to hand.

CARDIFF, 14th.—The steam coal trade is mode-
rately active, the proprietors being fairly off for
orders. There is every prospect of a larger business
being done, and many are making preparations to
meet the expected increased demand. There is not
any change to note in house coal, the supply and
demand continuing about the same as last week ;
but as winter has now really set in merchants'
orders are naturally expected to increase. Several
of the large iron companies have commenced to ship
coal, and consequently the means of supply are at
present larger than they were. The iron trade is
not so active as was expected, the trade with
America being still characterised by irregularity ;
and the entire closing of the Baltic trade has also
influenced the market. There is a fair amount of
business doing in rails ; and, although there is no
great improvement to note in plates, a slight in-
crease has been evinced in the demand. Pig iron
realises full current quotations without difficulty.
NOTTINGHAM, 15th.—At our Exchange-hall to-
day there was a tolerable attendance, and the
demand for lace yarns was firm, at the extreme
rates of Tuesday. Hosiery yarns a steady sale,
and quite as dear. Silks and spun silks maintain
full prices. There was a slow demand for brown
nets, and prices remain without material variation.
In mosquito nets there is a fair amount of business
doing for the time of the year.

destroyed or bonded by them. It will be seen that there
have been 4 steamers, 78 ships, 43 brigs, 82 barks, 68
schooners, in all 275 vessels, of nearly 1,000,000 tons in the
aggregate captured. We now add a short account of each
vessel fitted out in behalf of the South. The first South-

THE TALLAHASSEE

made two raids from the port of Wilmington, N.C., in
1864, capturing and destroying nearly thirty vessels, a
number being fishing vessels ; on August 13, 1864, being
within six miles of Nantucket lightship, and ran back to
Wilmington.

. THE CHICKAMAUGA,
under command of Lieutenant Wilkinson, left Wilmington
October 24, 1864.

THE SHE'SANDOAII

was built in October, 1863, at Glasgow, and called the Sea
King. She is 790 tons, 200 horse-power, ironframe, wood
planking, owned by William Wallace, of London, being,
like the Alabama, entirely of British origin and equipment.
In September, 1864, she was sold to Richard Wright, of
Liverpool, and under command of Captain P. L. Corbett,
who received written authority to sell her for not less than
£45,000 within six months from October 7, 1864. She
cleared at London for Bombay, and arrived at Madeira, off
which port she afterwards received guns and crew from the
British bark Laurel. She was christened the Shenandoah,
and under command of Captain Waddell she sailed towards
St. Helena, near which she destroyed a few vessels; thence
going to Bay of Bengal and Straits of Sunda. She put into
Melbourne for coal, and thence proceeded to the Arctic
Sea, where, between the Ist of April and the end of June,
1865, she destroyed twenty-nine vessels. She arrived at
Liverpool November 6, 1865, and surrendered to a British

Sept. 4, 1862. She was then refitted, and under the com-

Native Literature in India.

(From Galignani's Messenger.)
We find several curious facts concerning the
intellectual state of India at the present moment
in M. Garciri de Tassy's inaugural lecture, which
is now printed. After stating that the dialect more
particularly called Hindoostanee or oordoo, which
is composed of Hindee, Persian, and Arabic, is
likely to become the reigning dialect of India,
owing chiefly to the influence of railways, the dis-
tinguished professor informs us that no less than
seventeen new periodicals printed in Hindoostanee
have this year been added to the already existing
ones, and that most of these new journals have
appeared in provinces where none existed before,
such as, for instance, the Punjaub, Oude, and
even Afghanistan. Most of them are in oordoo,
but a few are in Hindee, which is the old dialect
of the country. The Agra Law Journal is pub-
lished both in English and in oordoo ; and the
students of medicine at Lahore have got up a scien-
tific periodical, called the Panjabi. There has also
been a vast number of new publications : among
them Bagavat Allalwa, being a detailed account of
the insurrection of 1857, in the province of Malwa,
by Nizam Uddin ; then the Jauhar-i'acl, an allego-
rical moral novel like the " Pilgrim's Progress," and
various poetical works chiefly of an erotic stamp.

frequent, as well as that of a French on into an

TIIE NATIONAL GALLEThe National Gal

Vittore Caipaccio, representiug the Virgin and Child with

ture, is St. John, and on the left St. Christopher, carrying
the Saviour. The figures are life sizo, and the picture
comes to us direct from the gallery of Couut Alvide Moce-
