MR. ArKINsoN-As an attentive reader OF
your valuable paper, will you permit me to cor
rect what consider paIpabIe error that has had
general circulation with regard to the late most
melancholy fire in the city Of New York!
II has been stated that with The exception Of
the great fire which occurred ia London on the Sd
September, 1866, and the conAagrs,ion Of Mos
COW on the 9Th September, 1912, no calamity
from fire has ever visited any spot on the inhabi-
ted globe equal to that recently experienced in
Ncw-York.
With all Difference to those better Informed
than myself, particularly in Chronology, ] invite
their recollection to the great fire which took
place in the City Of Copenhagen, on the 5,h June.
1895. commencing at the Arsenal. (called in The
Danish language, Gammel Iiom,) and which, in
fory-eisht hours, laid nine hundred and forty
three houses in ashes. IAFNIENsIs

THIRTEEN DAYS LATER FROM
Europe.

BY the steam boat Bunker Hill, Capt. San
ford, which arrived yesterday morning, CO.
py ofihe Journal of Commerce of Tuesday
last, was received in town, which furnishes
us with some late and very gratifying intcli-
gencc, as to the probable state Of our rela-
tions with France.
London dates to Dec. 18th and Liverpool
TO Dec. 10Th, have been received by ship
Victoria, Capt. Merrill, and letters from
France written by persons holding distn-
guishcd political stations. AS we predicted
in our remarks on the Presidents Message,
the most conciating spirit predominates in
the French Ministry, who wait only COM
munication of a character similar to that mes
sage, or for the message itself to come at
once 10 an nmicnbe arrangement.
The Journal of Commerce says: We have
had access to letters from France, written by
persons holding such political stations as en-
title them to all the Cons id Grafton of official
organs. They soy that the French ministry will
not permit any degree Of resentment or other
passion to enter into their measure towards
tue Ouiteu StutcS, dUu Will W uOtllUg except
for the promotion Of the best interests of
France. That CONTRARY to what has been so
often said.) they will not commence hostilities
on account OF any measure on the purt of the
". States which Is short Of actual aSgress. on,
not even a non intercourse, and " i'll under no
circumstances strike the first bloic.
Farther, that even though Gen. Jackson
should use insult ng language or recommend
hostile measures, no notice will be taken of
it by the Government of France; that the in
demnily money will be paid on receipt Of any
communication which can upon the Most llb.
raj Interpretation be construed as II compli-
ance with the provlso to the bill Of appropri-
ation,-and even should no explanation be
received during the administration Of Gen.
Jackson, the money will he RENTED to this
country immediately on his successors COM
ing into office. II OH the otter hand, the
United Suites should commence a war,
France will go into the combat with all her
resources. The writer's Of these letters evil
dently anticipated a very warlke Message
from the President Mt the opening Of Con-
gress: so much more SO than they will find it
t. be-, that the most intelligent French gen
tlenlcn here feel no doubt that the Message
will be received as satisfactory.

The Mexican Embargo.

The following intelligence in relation Ia
this political movement is Of considerable in
terest. We find it in the New Orleans Bee
of the Oath December.
The embargo said to have been laid on A
mercan ships entering the ports of Mexico,
is not wholly without foundation; yet it is not
Of such a nature as to warrant apprehe nsions
of rupture with the Mexican governmcn mt,
ar any cessation Of our trade with that coun-
try.
II is true that the port Of Tampico was
closed for few days; but that was to prevent
intelligence being communicated Of the e.
Qnpment of Mexican cutters for the coast of
Texas; and it is also true that the Kanawha
was not permitted to land any Of her passen-
gers or discharge her frcight; but that was
because she had been freighted with provis-
ions-which are declared contraband by the
revenue laws Of Mexico, and because she
had gone victualled purposcly to support the
attempt Of General Mehia on Tampico.
1t is equally true that the port Of Vera
Cruz had been closed for n short time by mr.
bitrary orders, aud from similar motives; but
jt is also true that this species of embargo
had not received the sanction Of the general
government. and must be considered rather
as individual acts, and as resorts supposed to
be required by policy or just Indignation.
The ports Of Mexico are now open to our
arade; and greater tranquility prevails in the
interior Of that country than we had suppos-
ed-at least so we are informed. II was al.
30 stated that the former refractory states of
Jalisco and Guanahua had declared in favor
Of Santa Anna and centraism; and that even
Zacotecas is likely to give her adhesion to
the central form Of government, as her citi-
zens seem more disposed to follow trade than
promote war or insurrection, and are engag.
ed in forwarding conductas with large a.
mounts Of specie to the maritime coasts.-
We were also informed yesterday by IN ex-
pcricnced merchant, thut most Of the Mexican
states will now combine against Texas, in a
common cause.
The embargo rumorcd was, therefore rath.
er mcnaccd than enforced, or, if enforced,
was resortcd TO in only few instances, and
Tor special purposes,

1T is stated says the Baltimore American
that conversation was held with the Presi-
dent, on Saturday, OH the subject of granting
reliefby Government to the City of New York,
but that he had expressed constitutional scru-
Piles with regard to it. He stated that New
York had lost about ten per cent of its capi-
tai by the late calamity, but that Cheraw, S.
c. had lost on u recent occasion, ninety per
cent of its capital, and that no relief was gran
ted by the Government
1t seems to the microscopic eye Of the
President, that CHERAw stands in the same
light to the Treasury and the nation that New
York does! We hope the nation Of whom he
claims to be the representative will teach him
q little discernment.

DESTRUCTION TO sAvE.-The N. Y. Ameri-
can gives the following description of the
method pursued in blowing up, or rather
down, buildings at the great fire of the 18th
December. There can be no doubt that pow
der was an efficacious and valuable instru-
n,ent in checking the progress Of the flames.
u may not be uninteresting, or without use,
to state the mode of proceeding adopted in
blowing up the stores. Two barrels Of pow
der generally, Of 100 lbs. each, were taken
into the cellar of the devoted building and
placed about the centre of it, at q small dis
tance apart; the heads Of the barrels were
then knocked out, and train, by means Of
planks, or long pieces of calico or linen, of
which too many were lying about in the
streets, was formed from the barrels to the
exterior Of the cellar door; on this, straw-of
which the crates from the crockery stores
supplied enough-was laid, and sprinkled
plentlfully with powder; the doors were then
closed, and all persons desired TO retire from
the vicinity oftho building, except the person
who was 10 fire the train; this was done by
laying burning brand on the straw, project
ing from the cellar way, and OH which, tor a
foot or two, no powder was sprinklcd. After
a few moments Of intense suspense, a sudden
flash, rumblng explosion, slight tremor
Of the earth, the audible shivering of glass
windows for hundred yards around, dense
cloud of sulphurous smoke, and shapeless
heap Of ruins-told how well the work had
been done. The effect of these explosions
was not to project any thing to a distance,
for in no one instance probably, was frag-
ment of any size thrown from the buildings;
but rather as it would seem, to lift up and ex-
pand the wals-so that beams, floor, mer-
chandize and roof, all fell in at once, and up
on them and covering them up, the walls
themselves. Hence il was Immediately per-
ceived, that the danger apprehended by some,
of killing and wounding many persons, by the
materials which such explosions wonld-it
was supposed-scatter far and wide, was not
incurred, and that moreover from the compact
heap in which the ruins lay, little or no addit-
ional aliment was afforded to the flames.
Greater confidence was therefore felt in hav-
ing recourse to such an expedient.
