Printers have turned out, and with the excep-

you two slips, no papers have been published to-
day, and none will be published tomorrow. The
25 per cent. demanded by printers over their for
mer rates Of from 90 to 80 Dollars a week, is
generally considered as an imposition. The fact
is that printers are scarce.
As yet nothing has been definitively settled

LATE FROM ENGLAND.

The Packet Ship EUROPE, Capt. MAR
SHALL, arrived yesterday morning from
Liverpool, whence she sailed on the 4th
instant, and shortly afterwards, we re.
ceived intelligence of the arrival of the
London Packet Ship MONTREAL, Captain
GRIFFIN, which left Portsmouth on the 3d..
The papers brought us by these convey.
ances are to the latter date from London
and to the former from Liverpool.
We do not, to our regret, preceive in
their contents, any indication of a decided
Improvement in the London Money
Market. We have heard, however,
through private sources, that considerable
sales of American Stocks had been made
there, at advantageous prices-a circum-
stance certainly encouraging in itself.
We hope it may prove the precursor OF
better times.
In England, as here, the situation of
the financial and commercial interests, are
the absorbing topics. Politics seem al.
most forgotten. The ministers have given
notice of motion in Pertinent for the
abolition of Church Rates-a measure, il
possible, in the eyes of the Conservative
party, more obnoxious than the Irish Mu.
nicipal Corporation bill. There is little
doubt we think, that the session will end
in dissolution OF Parliament.
Nothing decisive has occurred in spain.
An earthquake has devastated Syria
from one extremity to the other. The
results have been most awful. Several
villages with all their populations have
been swallowed up. We allude TO this
event now, because our news.collectors
report to US, that Capt. FARRAN, of the brig
Monterideo, arrived here yesterday from
Cadz, had stated to them that the Earth.
quake had occurred at Symrna. In COM
pairing the circumstances stated by Capt.
Farran, with those stated in the English
papers in relation to an earthquake in
Syria, we have no doubt that Capt. Farran
is under mistake and that it is that country,

been visited by this calamity.-Courier

Longevity Among Printers.-A late
French periodical contains the following in
teresting calculations In twenty. three
printing Offices in Paris, there were no.
ticed in each, printers whose ages ranged
from 40 to 10 years. An aged master
printer asserted that he had known more
than fifty compostors or pressman, who
had passed their sixtieth year. Among
thirty-fve persons engaged in one office,
one third ranged from As to 80 years of
age. A printer who worked in an office,
a few years ago, said there were out of
40 workmen, 25 whose ages ranged from
so to 10. This Office was appropriately
termed imprimerie des bir5ussiers, or the
printing office Of the greybeards." There
are II printers now working in Paris, of
whom seven are 10 years of age, one 80
and one 80. A printer worked in the
office OF Didot the younger, until his death,
when he was SO years of age, and another
continued to work until the age of "a. A.

"Some time since l was informed that the

here and obtaining supplies of ammunition from
small band Of Indians, and some two or three
old Spaniards, residents near the mouth of Black

Indians passed down the river in canoes, &c.

Fall Of building and loss of Iye.-Yesterday
afternoon, between one and two o'clock, two
story frame building on the Third Avenue. three
doors above Twenty-sixth street. fell 10 the ground
burying in its ruins eight or ten individuals.
The grading of the avenue on which it fronted,
together with the excavations which had been
made some time since on each side, left the house
standing on mound of earth some ten or twelve
feet high. At the time the disaster occurred a
number of laborers were employed in removing
this, for the purpose of adding in its place low
er story to the house, and the building being as il
was supposed securely propped up, the inmates
consisting of two or three poor families, remain
ed on the premises. All the women and children
belonging to these, except mother who with an
infant only three days old in her arms, sprang
from the attic window and reached the ground in
safety, were carried down with the falling tim
bers. Fortunately for them, the beams over tho
apartments in which they were in, fell in such a
way as to form a complete shield. Measures
were promptly taken by the crowd who gathered
around to remove the rubbish and extricate the
sufferers. The half stified and plaintive suppli-
cations of those incarcerated beings expecting in
slant death, we will not attempt to describe
They were all however rescued in safety except
an aged female who was slightly injured, and two
of the laborers, in one of whom life was extinct,
a piece of scantlng having passed through and
through his body. The other was SO severely
bruised that he died on his way to the Hospital.
Their names were James May and John Wilson,
both natives of England. The former has left
family in very destitute circumstances.
