Ohio.-1rmblo i5'certainly elected. Duff says he
does not know yet whether Trimble or Campbell has
succeeded. Poor Duff the habit is incurablc. He
now lies mechanically.
From accounts the election in Ohio has been thin.
The voters in that State rated by state document
at $4,000 third of this number have not exercised
their privilege. We believe that the administration
party reposed in secury-that they will be reused bv
the results of the late congressional election and tnt
the Electoral Administration Ticket will be chosen m
fully 10000 majority. Details follow

Fyrc.-A destructive fire, such as rarely
visits our city, broke out last evening about
half past eight o'clock, in 4 board yard be-
tween Union and Beck's alley, and Swanson
and Front streets, below Queen. 1t is sup
posed TO have been the work Of an lncendiary,
as it originated in the shngle shaving shop,
where no fire had been employed during the
day.
Nearly all the neighbourirg houses were Of
wood, and very soon considerable number of
them were enveloped in flames. Several were
entirely destroyed and great number Injured,
but in the confusion we could obtain but few
authentic particulars The cases of individual
distress are very numerous-at least fifty fam
lies having been turned out, either by tho fire
attacking their tenement, or npproa ching so
near them as 70 cause reasonable grounds OF
alarm. Household goods literally strewed the
streets.
The board yard was ia. property of Robert
Il NJ Mullen, jr. and is very much injured.
TINS is said to be the third time il has been
set on fire. Z. ID. Growers stable burnt to

WIT. OF all species of what s usually mis-
named wit may Heaven deliver US from puns,
riddles and conundrums. Doct. Johnson says
that he who will make a ppn, will pick a
pocket and Addison with tho same good
sense, sets down punning and enigma manu-
featuring as the very lowest description of wit,
if indeed they be entitled to that name at all,
The difference between that and real wit is,
that one consists in play upon mere words
and sounds, while the other is the production
and sentiment In wit, there is very often real
sound sense and argument; and sometimes il
is found the mos, powerful engine Of all others
to conyinco people Of the absurdity of any
thing that prejudice or false reasoning may
have induced them TO believe. child may
be tiekIed to laughter with a straw, but this
is no evidence Of wit. Whoever tags together
words TO form pun, is obliged TO consume
much time in his vocation, whereas wit is al
ways spontaneous.

Mr.. burgess. II is with no displensuro

heard passing the lips Of a delinquent con-

moderate application of tie cat-o-nine-tols,
and escaped out Of hearing distance. Among
all these publications we have not yet seen
one which contains the least sarcasm, smack

their woful mistake when they made the wan
