We have adyces three days later from
Mexico (via Havanna) and several days
later from Texas. All our information
comes through New Orleans and is nat
uraIy tinged with The ardent feeling for
annexation which prevails in that city.
The essential facts, however, are these {;
The Mexican Congress had not, three
days after the proposition for Non Inter
course with this country was made, yet
adopted that measure. On the other hand
the entire Mexican Press appears to re-
gard war with this country as the inev.
table consequence of annexation, should
Texas concur in and our Government con.
summate that measure. The feeling a.
galnst this country is strong and universal.
From Texae, we have the significant
fact that President Jones had not get taken

BOwERY THEATRE BURNED!!

SUPPOSED Loss OF LIFE This
doomed building has been once more,
and for the fifth time, reduced to masses
of smoking ruins. There is fatality
attached to the Bowery Theatre, which
is not the less remarkable thaH deplora.
BILE for those engaged in and about it.
Last night, about half past six o'clock,
the carpenters shop attached to the
theatre was discovered TO be on fire.
As soon as the discovery was made, a
number of persons closed the iron door
which shut off the theatre from the shop
and it was thought that the fire was sub
dued, when, as though a train had been
fired, the whole interior Of the house
belched out dense mass of fire and
smoke At seven o'clock not stick re-
NAMED. All was heated, blazing mass.
There are many circumstances which
lead one to suppose that the conhagra'
ton was designed.
1t it supposed that THREE PERSONS
whose names we heard, but forgot, in the
confusion, uere burned IN The building! !
They were attached to the company

cape.

department, leaped from window and

and was under the doctors care about four weeks
and got to be able TO walk about and tried TO do
little work which brought on slight bleeding
of the lungs. | returned home dispirited and sick
The next day while sitting by the hre, blood
vessel burst in my lungs, and commenced bleed
ing very fast. The doctor happened 10 be near,
and he did every thing in his power to stop the
bleeding, and finally succeeded after losing near
quart from my lungs, and more from my arm.
But this did not last but few hours, my lungs were
so spasmodic the doctor could not control them,
and for FIVE days and nights continued to bleeG.
until there was no blood to run; when it ceased It
left me so weak could scarcely breathe or stir.
lay for long time in one position, until my lungs
healed, and began to gain little strength. but
about four weeks ago relapse came on and pied
again at the lungs, and continued TO cough anu
raise large quantities of bloody matter every day,
and was rapidly fastening to the grave My
friends and neighbors had given up all hopes and
told me | must die. My physician could give
me no encouragement except that the lungs were
not yet liberated, and all hopes of recovery gone,
until one of your pamphlets were given me de-
scribing DR. Larbor's Extract of Lupgwon. My
neighbors obtained bottle for me, as last resort,
but with very little hopes ofts doing me any good.

night sweats have nearly ceased, my stength i'm
