LATER FOREIGN NEWS.

By the arrival of the Brittania we have later
news than that received by the Massachusetts
The news is of great importance--we leave out
the unlnteresting details, having matter of more
useful description with which to fill our columns,
giving the leading facts which are the over
whelming revulson of the Railroad swindling
speculations- the expectation ofa famine through
out the United -Kingdom-the great anxiety and
alarm Of the British Cabinet at the state of pop
uar feeling in relation to the Corn Laws--the
proposed opening of the British ports---the re-
newed agitation of the repeal question advance
of the price fgrain and depression in the price
of cotton. aE8HT1H1
The railway mania has resulted in an explo-
sion-as we predicted several weeks ago. We
saw that it was inevitable will the explosion Of
the bubble in England teach our own mad coun
trymen a lesson Of wisdom--or shall we continue
to rush forward to irretrcyable ruin 2 Shall we
pause-turn back, while escape is practicable
or end in maduess what has been commenced in

these speculatons which have brought ruin and

A more gigantic system of swinding has rare
ly been seen in these latter days, and the num-
ber of respectable" persons who have lent
their names tosupport bubble companies, make us
blush for the cupldity of our common humanity.
The wreck Of fortune and of character which
this insanity has caused, will be felt long after
the causes that produced it have passed away.
As proof OF the extent to which this huge sys-
TEN OF swlndling has been carried, It may be
mentioned that even ladies were not exempt
from its influence. The female friends and rela-
tives Of those who pulled the ewires Of. certain inn
posing pnppet schemes, were in the daily habit
of haunting the purlieus and offices Of the share
brokers in the Metropolis, to watch the market,

CITY AFFAIRS.


Sunday night, a little before l o'clock, fire
was discovered by Mr.. Taylor, Of the Auxiliary
Guard, in the southwest corner of the old Brew
ry, at the south end of New JERSEY avenue,
erected some years ago by G.. t. Coote, Esq, of
this city. When first discovered, it appeared to
have just been kindled, and Mr.. Tavlor imme-
diately ran over to the Anacostia engine house,
sounding the alarm as he went. He found a
good deal Of difficulty in arousing the fremen,
who all appeared to be enjoying sleep so soundly,
he however succeeded in getting that engine and
company on the ground before the flames had
made any very great headway, but the canal
was almost dry at the time, and it was some
raging with great force from the northwest fan
ned the flames SO powerfully, that all hope Of saw
ing any part of the property was given up at
once. Mr. Thornton Hickey, who occupied the
dwelling which was at the north-end, succeeded
in saving the most of his furniture, but nnfortu-
nately three persons engaged in getting out Of
the second story, after having got out what they
could, jumped out Of the window upon the COW
cred way into the cellar, which, unfortunately,
gave way, and precipitated them into the cellar,
hurting them all seriously. One Of them wor-
thy cilizen by the name of Grinder, another
name unknown to the writer, but an apprentice
to Mr.. Thompson Van Reswick, it is said, had a
leg broken just above the ankle. There was no en-
gine except the Anacostia on the ground when the
writer left, which he thinks was about o'clock,
A. M, but thinks he heard one going down
shortly after. The Anacostians as usual, exert
ed themselves to the utmost, but the odds here
was SO much against them, that their attempts
were useless + = s,.gsag l.t aW eF WEfg aEi
