A writer in the Norristowp, Pennsyl

says" Avoid even the appearance of

have never been more convinced of the
truth OF this passage, than in the con
temptation Of the fate of the miserable
being whose end we have Just recorded.
A very few years since, Richard john

be walked our streets as gay, erect and
joyous as any among US. Possessing a
fair and unblemished reputation, and a
profession which would have secured
to him at least competence, he could
look forward, through the vista of years
to come, and behold rich perspective
of happiness to himself, pleasure TO bis
friends, and usefulness to those around
him, Were these flattering prospects o
be realized? Alas, Too soon "the ap
pearance of evil" became familiar.

New YORK, April 10.

New YORK, April TO-
ANOTHER THEATRE BURNT. This morn
| ing, about three o'clock, this CITY was
alarmed by the cry of fire, and its inhabit-
ants most distant from the scene of confa-
grafton, were soon aroused by the excess
OF light to the consciousness, that it was a
very extensive one. 1t was ascertained TO
be the Lafayette Theatre, which occupying
space between Laurens and Thomson
streets, of 20 feet in breadth and 200 in
depth, with a single roof and wooden
cupola, presented, as we first saw it, in one
fierce and continuous blaze, a most menac-
ing as we'll as most magnificent sight.
The combustibility of the materials, and
the height to which the fire had got, before
the engines could arrive, together with
the narrowness of the streets in front and
rear OF the burning building, and its sides
being masked by brick houses, rendered
every effort to save it unavaling. 1t was
therefore abandoned to it's fate, and all ex-
ertlons were directed to save the adjoining
buildings, and though much injury was sus-
tanned, much more than at one time appear
ed unavoidable was prevented. AS it is, the
destruction is very great, including first, the
theatre and all its wardrobe-upon which
there was not one shilling of insurance the
ten three story brick houses forming the
block between Laurens and Thomson
streets, and fronting on Canal street. of
which the six centre ones were completely
Quilted, and present only the naked walls,
and the others were more or less damaged in
the interior and roofs-tbese were, it is I'M
derstood, mostly insured, and the goods in
them, for they were chiefly occupied below
as dry goods shops, also generally insured,
were mostly saved, though probably not
without injury from the haste of removal.
In Laurens street, three brick houses north
of the theatre, beginning with the Shak-
speare tavern, occupied by Mr. Allison.
and extending to No. 49, occupied by Mrs.
Dexter, and 81, by Mrs. Green, were des-
troyed; the two next adjoining ones were
also much injured. In Thompson street.
the double three story brick house, No. S,
occupied by Mr.. Sanford, No. 3, untenant,
ed, and No. 7, occupied Ivy Mr.. Carroll,
were more or less injured, the cornices,
window frames and architraves being all
consumed. A stable or two, and small
bake house, adjoining the theatre, were al
so consumed and il was in one or other of
these last enumerated buildings that the
fire originated. The whole is suspected to

G In our last we noticed correspondence
of New Jersey and ex-President Adams. Be-
heving it would be interesting to our readers,
we now publish it in full,
TO John Quincy adams, late President o. the
United States.
SRA number of your fellow citizens of the
counties of Essex and Middlesex, in the State
of New Jersey, grateful for your past services
to the Republic, and believing that the purest
motives and most patriotic principles have gov
erned your conduct through long course of
public life, cannot consent TO let you pass into
retirement without some public expression of
the kind feelings they entertain towards you,
and the hope that the evening of your days
may be passed in the enjoyment of that tran
guilty which is only the lot of the good; and
that YOU may continue to witness your country
in the possession of that rational liberty, and
that prosperity, public and private, which your
self and your father, in conjunction with nu-
lnerous band of patriots and sages, have con-
tributed so greatly to establish.
In thus conveying to you our assurances OF
respect, and our regret that you could not have
been continued in office another term, we beg
leave to say that our appreciation extends equal
ly to all your Cabinet officers. In them we
had entire confidence, and much regret that
our country should lose the services of such
able and patriotic citizens.
Although we regret on account of the Repub
tai of Office SH could not continue in the preslden
joyinent Of tho tranquility of private life, are
infinitely desirable. We regret, too, the man
ner in which the change has been effected, a:
boding good, either to the well government
or duration of the Republic. May Heaven il
mercy avert anticipated evils
In thus expressing our regret that you have
not been continued in office another term, and
our regret at the manner in which the change
has been effected we would not be understood
as condemnng the administration of Genera
Jackson, before it has commenced on the con
trary, we know we best express your senti
msnts and reciprncate your feelings when we
say, we hope his administration will dsappon
all our fears, and realize more than the bes
hopes of his friends, and that every means o.
promoting our national prosperity and glory
every means of increasing and securing indi
yidual happiness and comfort, within the con
stitutional power of the President, will be pu
in requisition by him.
With the best wishes for your individual hap
piness and that of your family, we beg leave
respectfully to subscribe ourselves. Your fel

rats, mostly grown, were destroyed-all Of the

which, the skins bring something from the
curriers'; the bodies are neatly dressed and
barbecued, and carried to the market nlaco
