glare. The following are the only in
juries we have YET heard of. This
morning Mr. jesse Bunch, Il poor man,
living in the rear of Christopher Hug
hess was struck dead, and one Of his
children severely burnt. Last night
the chimney ofthe Auction Store at the
corner of Charles and Market street
was struck and slightly injured-the
fluid divided, one branch passed down
the chimney, entered the room, prostra-
ted young man, and passed out of the
door; its appearance in the street was
that of large ball of fire. The other
branch followed the water spout round
the caves of the store. descended the
spout to the window of Mr.. Canfield's
Lottery Office, which it shattered, and
passed into the street. part of this
branch of the fluid, it is supposed, en-
tered the gas tube at Mr. Canfield's win
dow, and descended into the pipes, as
lights of the offices, stores and city
lamps, from above Barnum's Hotel on
the opposite side, to Belvidere street,
were eXtinguished while the oil and can
die lights were untouched. This is a
most curious effect of lightning, and
will doubtless attract the attention of
the scientific. We are satisfied, al
though some entertain doubts, that the
gas lights were extinguished by the e.
lectrick fluid entering the gas pipes, for
the lights on the, other side of Market
street were not touched, and also be-
cause the lights were extinguished for
the same distance above that they were
below the place where the fluid is sup
posed to have entered the pipes.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
A few minutes before one, yesterday
afternoon, a fire broke out in a carpen-
ter's shop, at the corner Of Chesnut and
Charles streets, and Notwithstanding the
most spirited exertions, before it could
be subdued, it proved to be the most
destructive fire that has been known in
this town. for many years. We have had
no rain for more than fortnight, SO that
every thing was excessively dry; and
the wind blew almost gale. The fire
soon caught two dwelling houses in Ches-
nut street, and a block OF. Charles street
which extended to the corner Of Bea-
con street, and extended for consider
able distance up Beacon street. The
whole number of dwelling houses burnt
is l5.. one grocery and a carpenters
shop. Some of the houses DESTROYED,
were among the finest in town. Two Of
the houses were on Chestnut street, six
OF Charles street, and seven on Beacon
street. 1t was only by the greatest ex-
eruons that the fire was at length ar
rested, after raging with undated fury
for more than two hours The last
house burnt was separated only by a
brick wall from the next, the wind blow
ing directly upon it, and the out houses
were principally of wood. The distant
parts of the town were at the same
time in no small dar, ger from the burn
ing flakes, which were carried an i'm
mense distance by the wind We have
already heard Off great number of
places where the fire caught but
was put out before any considerable in
jury was done. We are not able TO
give complete list of the sufferers ;
the following is all we have learned.
On Chestnut street, the carpenters shop
and the 9 dwelling houses were owned
and occupied by Messrs. Stoddard and
Lincoln. On Charles street Messrs. Bal
ley and Stanford kept a grocery shop
at the corner of Beacon street, and two
dwelling houses were occupied by
Messrs. Griggs, Granger, Putney, Smith
Tilden and Misses Huse the owners we
do not know. On Beacon street, the
houses were occupied by Messrs. Bry-
ant, t. SWEET, II. G. Rice, w. Minot,
1. II: Carter, S. Austin and S. Dean,
and most of them were owned by the
same gentlemen. y large proportion of
the furniture was sa:ed. 1t was carri-
ed upon the common, where guard
vas soon formed for its protection.
We have heard several reports as to
the manner in which the fire caught.
One account attributes it to a chimney,
another to cigar, and third to boil
ing glue; but we do not know which is
correct. 1t was doubtless accidental.

1MPosToR.-A person, supposed to be
from 25 to 80 years of age, rather sIen-
der, has been about Hartford several
.days soliciting aims, and having the APP
.pearauce ola person afflicted with St.
Vitus' dance. He eudeavors to excite
sympathy by motions of distress, saying
but little, sometimes nothing, and walk
ing with difficulty. He was last Thurs
day invited by an overseer Of the work
house TO walk with him, when all at
once his limbs resumed unusual strength
and he ran like deer down State street.
A persevering constable being called,
pursuit was made, he was overtaken and
with the assistance Of two others, the
constable had him before magistrate.
Ills speech came-he was tried and
committedto the work house for forty
days. Our vigilant acting overseer or
dered the master TO search him, who
found concealed in pocket in the in
side of his shirt, 35 dollars in money.

NEW GOVERNMENT PAPER. A late num-
Der OF the National Intclligencer complains
that the publication of the public documents
has been transferred, from that paper, to the
National Journal, and the Crawford papers
have made it the cause Of renewed attacks on
the character of the Secretary of State. This
has called forth, in the Journal, statement
of facts which must, to every impartial mind.
produce perfect conviction of the propriety
Of the course which has been pursued.
When the late convention with Great-Brit-
ain, for the suppression of the Slave trave, was
submitted TO the Senate, it was strongly op-
posed by some members of that body, and. in
order to place the whole subject before the
people. the administration in their own de-
fence ordered all the documents relative to it.,
to be published. They were accordingly sent
to the Office of the lntelligencer, but the Edit
ors of that paper garbled them and published
only part, emitting such portions as were
most necessary for the justification of the ad
mihls'ratlon, at the same time stating in long
editorial ARTICLE, the arguments of those who
opposed the convention, without giving one
word which was urged in refutation of them.
by this act they clearly identified themselves
with the opponents Of the administration.
When called on to publish the remaining por.
ton OF the documents, they did it, but with
out Offering any excuse or apology for not do
ing ii before, and the suppression was charged,
by the enemies of the Secretary of State, to
him. Under these circumstances, it was deem
ed proper, by the Government, to seek a new
organ OF communication with the people, and
we are happy to find that the choice has fall
len upon paper conducted with so much a.
bllity and fairness as is the National Journal.

There's beauty in the wood f3
Its hue is of. the brightest green, ~
and, though above fair flowers are seen,
More softly do the violets glow
Reclining in the shade below; g.
The dewdrop's tints are brighter made
When on the green leaves they are laid ;
And sun and moon are sweet to view,
In broken fragments cleaning through.
There's beauty in the wood.
There's musick in the wood;
IT'S not alone the thrilling note
Of melody, breath'd from the throat
Ofevery tenant of the air,
That builds her nest and carols there
But oft, among the towering trees,
Eolus sends his gentlest breeze,
Signs through the grove his rounde!ay,
And dies, in whispering breaths, away.
There's musick in the wood.
There's quiet in the wood;
Around, let jocund glee and mirth,
And noisy folly shake the earth,
Around, let guilt and sorrow reign,
Murder and war, and grief and pain
Here, where no maddening tempests rave,
The hermit seeks his silent cave,
He dreams in joy, for peace is found,
Norsknows the pangs that rage around.
There's quiet in the wood. A
