An extra from the Office of the Thomaston Re-
corder, gives the following:

FIRE.-On Sunday morning last between two
and three o'clock, the citizens of this village were
aroused by alarm of fire. 1t proved to be at
the State Prison. Two buildings within the pris-
yard were destroyed. One occupied as a
shoe-shop, dollhouse, and cook-room and the
other for storage of grain, carriages, &c. In the
first considerable quantity of leather in the at
tic where the fire commenced, was consumed
In the latter several carriages and about 700
bushels of corn shared the fate of the building
The boots and shoes on hand were mostly saved.
By the persevering efforts of the citizens and of
ficers of the Prison, several other buildings were
saved from destruction, two of which were i'm
mediately contiguous to one of those destroyed.
1t was undoubtedly the work of ncendiaries.
The loss is considerable, but we are unable to
snv how much-probably about four thousand
dOllars.

Tom, Of General Harrison.

By the following paragraph, copied from the
Shelby (Ky.) News of the 9th ult.: it will be seen
that those with whom the decision of the question
properly rests have decided that the remains OF
the great and good man whose loss a nation
mourns, are to find permanent resting place on
the bank of the Ohio river, at North Bend. The
Baltimore Patriot observes However national
or central feeling, mingling with respect for the
memory of the individual, might have favored
different disposition of these remains, and induc-
ed the wish that they should repose in the nation
al cemetery, none can question the rights otthose
who have thus decided, on the fitness OF the de-
cision. To US, the spot designated as the final
resting place of the remains of Gen. HARRISON,
seems peculiarly appropriate:
We learn from Col Todd, that on his way to
his residence in this county last week, he, in per-
formance CT sacred Duty called upon the ven
cradle Widow of our lamented deceased Presl-
dent. Whilst there, he was invited by that lady
to a consultation with herself and her only re-
naming son, as to the ultimate depository of the
remains of her distinguished and beloved husband,
the Great and Good President. 1t was determin-
ed, at this consultation, to remove the remains
Immediately to North Bend, to be deposited upon
a beautiful and elevated natural mound, where
the monument may be seen for several miles up
and down the Ohio river. There the
traveller OF distant ages, will be refreshed by
visit to the tomb of the Warrior, who was never
defeated; of the Patriot, who died poor; and of
the Statesman, who from the proud height OF
President FELL like star struck from it's sphere,
covered with glory and renown.'

Loss or BRIG CoR1xrH1AN. of Garainer.


The Brig Plato at Baltimore, from Havana, re-
ports the arrival of the Clarion, April &c, in IL
days from New York, having been detained two
days in affording assistance to the brig Corinth-
an of Gardiner, in this State, from which they
saved the captain and crew, nine in all. Capt.
Stone of the Cornthian, and his officers, have
published card at Havana in which he states
The Cornthian wrecked on the Bahamas,
on her passage from Philadelphia for New Orle-
ans, and after being on the wreck ten days, suf-
fering the most intense torments, the Clarion for
tunately came to her aid previous TO which
more than thirty vessels had passed the Corinthi-
without being able to render her any assist
ance.
Capt. Stone returns his thanks for the kind at
tention of Captains Dunn and Glover, and also to
the passengers of the Clarion. She came to
chor near the wreck, and lay there nearly two
days. Capt. Stone speaks in the highest terms
of Ericsson propellers, and is satisfied that with
out them, he and his crew must have persisted, as
ordinary vessels could not approach her. 1.-THE
Clarion is steamship.

New STEAM Boat. The new Steamer, for
some time past expected on the Kennebec to con-
meet with the Rail- Road at Portsmouth, for Bos-

our waters, under command of Capt Andrew
Brown, very experienced and afable MASTER
The new Boat is called the 50 NJ Y. Beach" and
is about the size of the Huntress-perhaps a rr-
fe smaller, and of about the same speed For

TONE" There's nae luck about the house
Sand are We sure the news is true,
And are We sure he's sign'da
/ can't believe the joyful tale,
And leave my fears behind.
If John has sign'd and drinks no more,
The happiest wife am
That ever swept cottage hearth,
Or sung lullaby;
For there s nae luck about the house,
There's nae luck at a
And games the comfort of the house,
Since he to drink did IA
Whose eye so kind, whose hand so strong,
Whose love so true will shine,
IF he have bent his heart and hand
The total pledge to sign.
But what puts breaking in my head
trust he Il taste no more;
Be still, be still, my beating heart,
Hark bark he at the door
For there's nae luck about the house,
There's been nae luck at a,
And games the comfort of the house,
Since he to drink did ia
And blessings on the helping hands
That sent him back to me.
Haste, haste, ye little ones, and run,
Your fathers face to see.
And are you sure my John, you've sgn'd
And are you sure tis past
Then mines the happiest, brightest home
On Temperance shores at last
There's been nae luck about the house,
But now It's comfort a
And Heaven preserve my ain gudeman,
That he may never ia !"
