time, the GOODNESS of the parties had sponded
with the GOODNESS Of their names.
The Senate spent the whole time of its Session in
going through the Cove rnors Message and referring
il to the Committees. Every thing went on pretty
tremendously, until they came to that part which
touches on the Heidelberg war. On this point
debate arose, which alte civ CAV and severe

the effuson Of blood by his Proclamation. Mr.. Hun.

picture presented by the Senator from the First but
he had understood from the New York Herald that
the Heidelberg campaign was an expedition to kiss
the pretty Dutch girls

Ia the House Of Representatives today, that
scourge Of God that living Of the country, the
New JERSEY contested ell cton, was called this
morning with the order Of the day and Mr. John
NJ. Botts, of Virginia, new member, and gentle
man who brought some reputition with him from
X edmond, as n man of parts, took the floor, and
made a long and very elaborate speech
Ii was MIR. Botts's maiden effort and when he
took the floor, fall sides of the House came 10 dead
pause to listen to him. From the flourish Of trum-
pets that accompanied MIR. Bolts from Richmond to
Washington, much was expected, and curiosity and
expec tatIoB was on tiptoe.
IL any one had made up his mind that Mr.. Bolts
was to make a display that would rank him with
Charles J. Fox, Sir Philip Francis, Edmund Burke,
Lord Townsbend, or the Earl Of Chatham, Why then
he only listened TO be disappointed
Mr.. Bolts is undoubtedly a man Of talents; pos
good voice, pretty clear hsad,a good figure,
and very respectable portion OF seli.esieom HIS
education has evidently been liberal in its extent

Virgil

not particle If that modesty and difiidence-those
rare qualities which are ever the conconiiants OF
talent aud genius.
A. MIR Bolts came heralded to us, as the very
Jupiter Tonans Of American el9quence, laid more
attention To him, than otherwise should Lave done
To sum up, let me say that Air. Bolts 10 certainly
above the mediocrity Of men and as youag states
man. gives an earnest OF future excellence. In the
exordium OF his speech he was pleased - introduce
a good zeal Of that common place twattle about
liberty, the Con stituion and all that which, how
ever good it ight have been originally, has become
exceedingly stale and vapid Of late years.
Mr.. Bolts also pleased to be veSy pious :! lie

ORIGIN or TIE Recent FREs.-lt appears from
the recent returns OF the Fire Commissioners, that
our ments on former occasions, relative 10 the
origin Of fires correct viz that in foar cases
out Of FIVE buildings designedly Sc, on fire
The last returns from the Fire Commissioners, are
very curious as relating to the fires at Mr. Bends
store in Cedar street and Mr.. John nazletts store
in the Bowery. In one case, the COMMISSIONER
" the uhoie building teas enreioped IN flames soon
after IL tcas discorered and in the other, that "hs
store IRA, fired in fire separate and distinct places"
These are remarkable statements, and require to be
more thoroughly Investigated and were we IN the
situation of either Mr.. Bend or Mr.. Hazlett, we
should use every effort to clear NJ the origin OF these
fires The sense Of the community demands it,
When an entire building is enveloPed in flames
soon after fire Isdscovered, it leads to the belief
that the building was set on fee in more than one
place. II is very strange-very.
