dure the Whips and scorns, which in fulflment Of
the prophecy, they have met with in every coun-
try where they have appeared than leave the
haunts Of Indebtedness and gain, shat they rath-

Fire at Saco.-On Monday morning the
3lst ult. FIRE was discovered issuing from
the roof Of the Stable Of John Clea,es. Esq
The neiebborhood was immediately alarmed
and exertlon made to subdue its ra,ages--buf
their combined efforts being insufficient 10 ex
tinguish the flames, their exertons were direct
ed 10 the Stable contiguous, which WAS con-
necied by shed only Of about 20 feel in
length, which they Immediately pulled down
and thus by their well directed efforts ikay
succeeded in confning the FIRE TO the building
in which II originated. The Osler who at
tented the Stable had visited il about O'Clock
that morning, but says he carried no light
with hiu--and from the circumstance of It's
making ITS hr.i appearance through the roof,
il Is naturally ocniectuied that the fire was
kndled upon the top of the hay mow--bui
We do not learn that suspIcIohs are fixed upon
any one though there are appearances of its
having been communicated by design.
We are happy 10 learn that ibi, calamity

travellers as notwithstanding still Stable
