FIRE.--About midnight, the alarm Of fire was
given in the Fifth District, and it was discovered
that the building corner Of Fulton and Nassau
streets, Immediately opposite the Herald office,
was on fire in the ground story. The fire originated
IN the segar store Of Mr. Ezekiel, 90 Nassau street.
the contents Of which were entirely DESTROYED
The stock of goods in the haberdashe store adj
joining was also destroyed. but the promptitude
and efficiency OF fire companies "Protector,"
Southwark" and several others in the ward, who
were on the spot In few minutes after the alarm
was given, prevented the flames from spreading,
and saved the building, in which several families
were sleeping at the tire, but were aroused and
conveyed to places Of safety. We do not know
whether Mr.. Ezekiel, and the proprietor OF the
haberdashery, were insured, but they were the
only sufferers to any extent.

JOHN JONES IN AN AGONY. John Jones is in
terrible state of agony at the prospect Of the
prescription" as he calls it, which MIR. Polk has
adopted towards the Tyler Incumbents in Office
The removal of Major Lews-"the constant and
devoted friend Of General Jackson for upwards OF
thirty years"-has furnished poor John with the
theme Tor amonody, which is really one Of the
most pathetic pieces that we recolect 10 have met
with. And 1t must be confessed, indeed, that the
havoc" has been perfectly heartrending Just at
the very time when the "Old Kitchen Cabinet"
had the ires nicely blazing, and the pots and dish.
ss all, clean and ready, to be kicked out for ever
the whole bunch of them! No wonder tha,
John Jones should be now weeping and wailipg.
He finds some consolation, however, in the fact.
that Blair has been decapitated As for Blair
himself he appears to take the matter very phloso
phically. Probably he imsgnes that he has in.
duence enough to effect restoration. Verv
doubtful, indeed.
