occasion of presenting memorial from
the inhabitants Of Petersburg. 1t will
be recoIIected that Mr.. l.. was recently

Of Mr.. Rives, resigned:
"Would to Heaven" said Mr. Leigh,
''the President could see his error in the
light in which some Of his warncst friends
regard it, and reverse his unhappy mea-
sures. Such change of policy, for
whatever reason is adopted, would be IL
great allcviation of the dis,resses that
alllict his groanng country. Such an
acknowledgment and counteraction of
his errors, would evince the his hest vir
tue, wisdom, and magnanimity, and ac-
qure for him more OF true glory, and
more Of the affection and gratitude of his
countrymen, than even the victory of n.
Orleans, achieved for him. But, if he
shall vain gloriously shut his eyes to the
evidence of his errors, flashing Lightning
through the darkness that surrounds--it'
he shall obstinately persist in his present
course %! measures-it neither the opin-
ions of the people, nor ,he voice Of the
Legislature, can make him-it
"rhe fures that relentless breast have steel'd

in the performance of its duty. Let him,

sponsibility. "Upon his responsibility

Nothing gives more satisfaction to u

while at Washington. They discovered
on the list whole sheets Of doublets.
The same names are repeated by TWEEN

lnouced the gentlemen to examine lit

to strong light, they could discover
where the ends were pasted together,
and that some of the sheets contained
the signatures affixed TO some memorial

From the Providence Journal Of Monday last.
FiRE.-A fire broke out at half past 8
O'Clock, last evening, in the stable late
ly occupied by MIR. Sharpe, on Benefit
st' eet, in the rear ofthe Frank lin House.
The stable was the property Of Charles
Potter, Esq. Of this city. When it first
broke out, II was one immense column Of
flame. The stable and the black smith s
shop, adjacent occupied by Mr.. Samuel
Chase, were entirely consumed. The
two wooden houses on College street,
next TO the stable, also the property of
MIR. Potter, was considerably damaged,
and the furniture Of MIR. Sharpe, the oc-
cupant Of the upper one, was probably
nearly destroyed. The stable belonging
to the Manufacturers Hotel, containing
about 80 horses, took fire, and the side
next 20 the flames was entirely charred,
and one corner Of it entirely burnt lhro',
and the brands falling among the horses.
The fire was also communicated d to the
Frank lin III ouse, but was very soon ex-
tinguisned. We cannot, Of course give
any estimate at present, of the actual
loss. Had not the air been unusually
still, or had The wind blown as it did the .
night before, the devastation must have
been very great.
