,HENRY " TO HIS PARLIAMENT
A pale-worn man walked forth one night,
Meath the cold moons wan and Pickering tighti
His hair was gray, and his eye was dim.
He was heavy of heart and weary OF limbs
And on his brow were the lines OF care
As if hope would never again sit there,
And thus a sad lament did he wall
To his awe-siruck friend and the signing gale
| am here! he cried-I have reached the goal!
But it gives no rest TO the weary soul;
The White House portals have opened flee,
But sorrow and care were waiting for me,
Dallas! my friend, what shall | do?
A world of woe we have come into;
Ny shoulders bow meath the weight of power,
And the hour of fame is my saddest hour
Governor Jones was no more than O straw
To Bobby Peel and his threats of war!
l dtd not expect such a hullabullo!
But I've thrown down the gauntlet, what cam do
In many dilemmas by turns l've fout,
The tariff was nothing-I w~riggied right out;
But though now in a hobble, the world shall see

THE BIG CHINESE LETTER.

This singular document, which perhaps
surpasses in its dimensions, and in particu-
lars of composition, any State paper which
was ever addressed to our government, ar
rived at the Department of Stale on Friday.
We have had an opportunity of seeing the
extraordinary missive, and have been favored
with The following copy Of a translation,
which was made from the Chinese by Mr..
Parker, and transmitted with the original
document. The whole accompaniment is
almost as unique as the document itself. Ii

ANOTHER THIRD OF QUEBEC DEs.
TROYED BY FRET

Another great FIRE broke out in Quebec,
on the 26th ult.-just one month after the
great fire Of the 2Sih ult.-just. one month
after the great FIRE of the 2Sth of May by
which fully a third of the city was destroyed.
1t commenced about eleven O'Clock at night
in the back premises of M. Texsier, Not
airy, ST. Johns Suburbs, and spread with un-
relenting fury until nine O'Clock the next
morning, and in its course consumed about
1900 dwellings, and, at The least, rendered
homeless 6000 persons! Human aid was of
no avail. The wind blew fercely from the
northeast. Water could not be obtained 10
any extent, and even when had was OF little
avail, owiag to the rapid progress o! the de-
structire element.
About thirty streets were laid in ruins, from
this fire alone.
The following is the amount of insurances
effected:
Canada Office $4,000
Quebec do 1920
Montreal do $500
Phoenix do 1912
The Canada, il is said, will redeem its OBJ
legations; its capital is EI00,000, and by the
conhagration of the 25th ult. it lost ESQ.,
O00i
The flames spread, as during the last fire,
from street 10 Street, by the burning fakes
scattered by the gale then flowing; for, as on
the 2Sth, there had been a previous c%ontinu-
ance of dry weather, and at the time of the
break Of The fire, there ragged a violent wind
from the N. E.
From the Quebec Gazette.
The scene of desolaiion, distress, and af-
Fiction, and the extent of the calamity arc
nearly as great as after the former confagra-
ton; the value Of the property destroyed
probably greater. The population of ST. John
Suburbs was about ten thousand, and the pop
uIalion of ST. Roch had mostly found refuge
in ST. John Suburbs.
Quebec is now reduced 10 the Upper Town
within the walls, the Lower Town, from the
St. Charles below Hope Gate 10 Cape Blanc
on the ST. Lawrence, the extent which it oc
cupied, but they more sparsely built, after
the destruction of the suberbs during the ST.
eye in ITS. The remaining houses in the
suburbs are about as many as they were hall
acen:ury ago.
