FRE.-The Cotton Factory situate
near Watertowp Bridge, in MiddIesex,
on Thursday morning last, about half
past Z o'clock, while the workmen were
absent at breakfast, was discovered TO
be on fire, and notwithstanding the un-
exampled exertions of the people in the
vicinity. who promptly assembled, was,
in the short space of about two hours,
almost wholly destroyed. The fire o.
riginated in the garrett, and probably is
another instance of spontaneous combus-
ton, from the cotton litter and sweep
ings of the Factory. The machinery
in the Factory had just been put in com
plete order much the largest proper
ton being entirely new, and the re-
mainder thoroughly repaired. The
first story had been prepared and appro-
priated for machine-shop, and furnish
ed with tools and fixtures for extensive
business. The loss is extremely heavy,
being estimated from 90 to $4,000 dol
lars, and fails principally upon Messrs.
Wiswall and Hunting. The only insur-

Senator IN Congress.-We regret to hear of
the resignation, by Mr.. Otis, of his seat in the
U. 5. Senate. The frequent change of Rep
resentatives is highly injurious to the interests
of New-i3ngIand. If such individuals as Mr..
Otis cannot be induced to remain in Congress,
there is little reason to hope that men in
more active business can. In This, respect the
southern States possess great advantage over
Us. Their statesmen are trained up for pub
lick life, and devote themselves to it. The
state Of society in that portion of the Union IA,
yours such course. But in New-E England,
the men best fitted for publics1 life are usually
the most actively engaged in private pursuits,
and cannot make the sacrifice which the pub
lick service would require of them. Hence
the frequent changes that take place among
the Representatives from New-Ensland; while
those from the south remain in Congress until
they become veterans in politicks. The con-
sequence is, and from the nature of the case
must be, that our Representatives have not
the influence which they ought to possess in
the councils of the nation.
On this subject, however, the people Of
New-Engand have no right to complain, so
long as they contribute By their own Efforts
to increase the disadvantages to which they
are exposed. Every effort they make to di-
minish the compensation Of the members of

The Berlin Stale Gazette announces
authoritativeIy that the famous Decla.
ration ofthe Diyan, Of the 28th Feb. is a
forgery.
The London Courier recommends that
this annunciation should be coupled with
the Austrian article which precedes il,
the rise of the Austrian funds, and the
Improvement of the exchange at Pc
tersburg. The Turkish note is said to
have been fabricated by a mercantile
house wholly for the purpose of specd-
lation, in which ii was successful.

Foreign .NeaOs.-By the arrival yester-
day ofthe ship Hannibal, capt WatEinsnr.
in 81 days from Liverpool, we have re-
ceived London papers to the evening of
the 18th of April. They contain ac-
counts from ConstantinopIe to March
18th. 1t appears, that since the reiec-
ton of the. Russian utimatum, which it
was expected would have been followed
up by immediate war, Lord Strangford
the British minister, and the Austrian In
ternuncio, have presented another note
to the Divan, the object of which was to
open again the door of negotiation, and
If possible prevent the caiamities of
war. This note was accompanied by
one also from the French minister. Nj.
aatour Maubourg, advising the Turkish
government to pause before they enter
into hostiIities with Russia. 1t is propo-
sed in the joint note, that the Ottoman
troops shall be withdrawn from MoIda-
via and WaIlachia. as a proof of its wish
to remain at peace. The Divan, it is
said, has consented to take the PROPOSE
ton into consideration. We repeat what
we have before said, that there is no
probability that car 1ciH be declared be-
tsveen Russia and Turkey.

New-York Statesman, a caution against Z. UnLe,
la fellow, who had comprised the CASH. in New
York. by several ingenious manouvres. The Nor
folk Herald of the 9th received by the Steam Boat
this morning, announces his arrest in that city on
Tuesday last, at the instance OF captain j. L. Marsh,
and on his evidence and some other testmoney re-
|quired to find bail; and failing to do this, he was
committed to prison. 1t appears, that under pre-
tence of his having check for $500, he had OBJ
tanned advances from captain Marsh, and led him a
wild goose chase. At length, being cornered, and
traced to house in Little Water street, and war
rant having been obtained he was found on the roof
of an adjoining house.
