Wings who voted for Harper were voting for a
Wing, and the only one they could hope to elect,
while the majority of their journals told them that
this was the right course-that it would have no
political consequences, except 10 PROSTATE Loco
Focoism and secure City Reform. Thousands of
them have no idea of joining the new party or
adopting its sentiments. But the 5000 Loco
Focss who voted for Harper thereby renounced
and condemned their old party, voting for a
Wing in preference to highly respectable Van
Buren candidate, who stood good chance of
election. They voted to turn their own party out
of power; the Wings roere out, and voted SO
as to put part of their men in. Is not here a

Sd. The Gubernatorial Convention, for the nom.
ination of Democratic candidate for the Office of
Governor of Maryland-which assemblies at ten
O'Clock this morning, at the Odeon corner Of North

In reference 10 the National Locofoco Conven-
ton, il is confidently reported that Of the first
steps alter Il is organized, will be 10 offer resolu-
ton that candidate for the Presidency shall OBJ
tain the nomination unless he receives a majority
of twotlIirds of the Convention and the report
further is, that this resolution will be carried, and
that under its operation, MIR Van Buren, cannot be
nominated. Should these reports prove correct,
the Democracy will then have TO choose between
MIR Buchanan, Gen. Cass, Mr. Calhoun, Mr. Tyler,
and others.
In reference 10 Mr.. Tyler, the arrangement is

We are called upon 10 record the particulars Of
one Of the most extensive and disastrous fires which
has ever occurred in our city Between l2 and one
o'clock yesterday afternoon, the fumes burst forth
in the carpenter shop Of MIR Colt near the north
western corner Of franklin and Jackson streets,
which, before they could be got under, spread TO
the adjoining tenenents with irightful rupidity
Every building was Of wood, and as dry as finder
itself from the long drought so that nothing could
check the onward progress of the devouriDg ele-
ment The fire ragged for three hours
The attempt 10 picture the scene when the fierce
element was raging al its widest were impossible.
Many of the inmates Of the houses were laboring
under sickness and infrnity, and their eyes rolled
wildly as they were borne from their homes. Mo-
theirs, half frantic, searching for lost children
children were rushing, with loud screams amid
the fierce cracking Of the fames and seeking their
parents in every face All was confusion and de
spair but the most distressing sight Of all, per-
haps, the removal of the sick from the Maison
de Sante.
At little past four o'clock the FIRE had subsidized.
To attempt to give list of the sufferers, the
mount Of property destroyed, would be impossible.
Hundreds of citizens have been left without shell
ter and the loss has unfortunately fallen mainly up
on poor but industrious families many of whom
owned the small but comfortable dwellings, in which
they resided. Along Canal street. between Irene
and Robertson streets, stood number of large, ell.
egant and costly brick residences all Of which were
DESTROYED
We have heard il stated that the number Of hous-
es destroyed will not fall short of two hundred and
eighty, and many think that three hundred will not
cover their entire number

Texas will be annexed to the United States before the
adjournment of the present Congress IL is said there
is no hope that wothrds of the Senate will vote for
the Treaty and therefore it will be rejected by that pa
