From The Buffalo Com. Advocate.
BURNING OF THE GREAT WESTERN

Information reached here this morning of the de.
s,ructon of the Great Western. The clerk, in COM
munica,ing the fact TO Messrs. Gelston and Evans
the principal agents inthis city, says" have to
inform you that the Great Western took fire last
evening Sunday about o'clock, while living at the
dock IN Detroit, and in very short time all her up
per works were destroyed. Captain Walker thinks
her hull is perfectly sound and her engine beyond
doubt, very little damaged After having the hull
lowed down to Huron, preparatory to refrting again.
Capt. Walker will return TO Buffalo"
Nothing farther is said OF the destruction. We
however, learn from gentlemen who came passengers
in the Buffalo, that the Western had been on "trip
to Tie upper lakes, was returning and caught fire
while crossing Lake ST. Clair The FIRE was early
discovered and soon got under, but il would seem
not entirely quenched After the boat had re lched
Detroit, the smothered fire again burst FORTH and in
an instant the whole vessel was one entire sheet of
flame. The fire burned with such rapdity that very
lew oithe passengers secured their luggage. One
gentleman from Orleans county was much burned, in
attempting 10 save his valise, which contained
large amount ofmoney. The bar-keepr was on shore,
and also lost considerable sum In short but few
articles OF value were rescued, so furious was the
conhagraiion.
he Great western was a most SPLENDID specimen
OF naval architecture, and of the finest vessels
ever Sc, afloat ON the Western waters. Her loss
Will be regretted by the community generally She
originally cost 100000, and was owned in shares
by the agents here, Capt w, and few enlerprsing
persons at Huron. There was no insurance

 Their rounds of glory run, Where science leads thee to explore
 In every star sun. Thus, when some long -lov'd comfort ends, And nature would despair, Faith to the heaven of heaven ascends, And meets ten thousand there; First faint and small, then clear and bright, They gladden. all the gloom, And stars, that seem but points of light, The rank of suns assume.

Du'' LOT Inc sake OF the argument lei the inbound
cd assumption OF the Enquirer that the Sub-treasury
Is temporarily abandoned, be admitted and the in
curry recufs, Is wise In the "Anti- Subtreasury'
Enquirer, to oppose the opponents Of the scheme,
until Il Is permanently abandoned IL not ceniessedly,
al least In the satisfying and sufficient light Of an
earnest effort the part OF It's friends to secure the
adoption of some other permanent schemel
And, now, for the application Of this view Of the
subject thus briefly submitted, denying that The Sub
treasury scheme is even temporarily abandoned in
good faih (whie win here cite the facts, in proof
that the scheme Is still insisted on, that the ezctsire
sub-reasuTy friends OF Mr. Van Buren,, in the Ge-
neral Assembly of this State, In the recent aborive
attempt to elect Senator, pertinacously refused,
during the protraced contest TO give support In ear
nesl 70 any other than a Subtreasury nominee D
ihen, me Enquirer Is opposed 10 the Sub-treasury,
lhe measure OF fiscal agency sill insisted on, and
demanding instant constant, unremiuing resistance;
| ana YET opposes the reelection Of Mr. Rives, who
Is one OF It's most conspicuous and efficient oppo-
nenis-opposes his reelection, alleging that Mr..
Rives is not friend of this Administration, Of
which the Enquirer itself is not friend as to this
measure II Is evident that the Enquirer to approve
itself honest in opposing Mr.. Rives's reelection
must exhibit proofs sufficient to satisfy an intell
gent people, that Mr. Rives is opposed TO and oppo.
sing this Administration as regards other measures
than the Sub-treasury, and the matters intimately
connected with Il. respectfully call for the proofs,
begging the Enquirer to observe that do not consi-
der II Otherwise than reasonable and proper for ev-
cry friend Of The Sub-treasury, by all proper me-
thods to oppose Mr. Rivess reelection to the Senate
| Of the United States.
As for my humble self, SO far as my votes will go
and the free expressions OF my opinions may have
the good fortune exert any influence shall insist
on the issue Of Sub, or no Sub-treasury-and shall
act with the wings far as to oppose the election of
any friend Of that scheme preiering any other per-
son to represent me, unless indeed, be be an i'm

DEAR SIR-The mild weather is openingthe chan
nels Of communication with various sections Of the
Interior and the merchants of the country are again
busting through our business thoroughfares-glad-
dening the hearts, and filling the purses of the trat.
hckers in merchandise Pearl street is again OBJ
structed with mountains Of packages-and the pc
desrian, whuse limbs not supple, had better wend
his wav through some obscure side street. nor at
tempt forcing passage which requires activity, eau
lion and skill to accomplish. But Of all the changes
which are wrought By the magic wand Of Spring,
nothing can compare in beauty and spirit with the
temperance of the numerous steamers, which
bound forth like hounds from the leash-with ban
ners fying-to welcome the coming of the buds and
the flowers Already, the bugle heralds their daily
departure-groups of the wealthy, the fair, and the
eminent crowd their Observation-Disclosures wave
adens are interchanged- smiling faces, and light
hearts, and sparkling eyes meet your view on every
side. And if grief and dependency reign in the
bosoms Of any, it appears not on the surface.
This has been most unpropitious season for the
Park IHeatye-while the National has gathered gold
and laures-but the tide is now turning in favor of
old DrSry, and Hamblin and Rienzi are the centre
of attraction. In fact, both theatres are nightly
! filed and the close Of the season bids fair to be
pleasant and profitable. Already, the ruins of the
Bowery Theatre, which impaired quite an ancient
and classic appearance to that section Of our modern
Babel, are metamorphosed into structure fitted
for the display of histrionc eloquence, and under
the direction of Hamblin. The public look for It's
occupancy in the early part of May.
We all look, with great anxiety, for the settle
ment, without bloodshed, of the difficulties in Maine
Under the apprehension Of a serious rupture, our
stock market has dropped.

FOR THE MADIsoNIAN.
When wrote you from Richmond on the Oath OF
February, did not entertain any desire or expeca-
ton, BY the question, achcre aciute anil Subrcasuy
Richmond Enquirer be found? of putting my re-
speced friend, and my once kind friend, to the
trouble Of defining his position. Such, however,
has been the effect of the innocent inquiry; and,
| whilst | will now proceed to handle the important
parts Of the Enquirer's reply to it, must also make
some addition to the definition of my own position
The Enquirer says il will be, where il has always
BEEN opposedto the Subtreasury scheme-a scheme,
| will add, which has in it sufficient infusion Of
federalism to render it the object, as is already
we'll nigh the case, of the enmity and derision Of
every republican Of the old school. But of what
avail is it to be anti Subtreasury and still support
its friends; and yet, little stranger, still oppose its
opponents That this question was in the minds
eye of the Enquirer when IFS reply Of the Cd March
was written, is manifested from its tenor. ave
say" il reads, alirays arhere II has bcen viz: anti
Snbrcasuvy, (where il is likely to recur though for
the present. we consider it laid on the shelfnot to
be acted on this session, nor likely to be acted on
during the next Congress.") "Laid on the shelf"
Why did not the Enquirer, as is usual with it, exert
all Its strength In support of its assertion, and men
tion the circumstances which concur 10 ascertain the
fact that the scheme is laid on the shelfF' Will
the Enquirer, to which l constantly look, and not
often in vain, for light give the desired light on
this point by naming the circumstances which Justi-
fy that assertion Will the Enquirer contend that
the Sub-treasury scheme is even temporarily aban-
doned in sincerity when the President In his last
annual message tells the representatives OF The Peo-
Pile that recent events have confirmed him IN his
first impression and does not seek BY his friends in
a, ole pharp ay nj N ar
as is attempted in the Enquirer to secure the adop
ton of any alternative scheme7 And what pray,
is the alternative scheme OF the Enquirer "Spe-
cial deposites"ll must spare the mark, il being
needless TO aim any blow at il, beyond a respectful
reference of the Enquirer to the letters of yalerus
Publius" in the columns Of this paper, which we're
devoted TO an examination of this underlined scheme
OF special deposites suggested FIRST think, by
New York village newspaper and STILL with so little
success advocated--talfed abou,--used as a conve-
nient retreat-by the Enquirer.
