LETTERS OF MARQUE. We learn from
Washington on the very best authority, (says
the N. Y, Evening Post,) that a correspond
ence has taken place between the secretary
of state for the United State and the author
tiles of Cuba, touching the fitting out of Mex
lean letters of marque, in the ports of that isl
and. tits known that there is an express
stipulation in our treaty of 1893, with old
Spain, against the fitting out of privatecrs
from any Spanish port, which stipulation
has been pressed upon the attention of Spain
In reply to Mr.. Buchanan's letter, we are
told that the most positive assurances have
been returned both by the government of
Cuba and that of the mother country, to the
effect that the terms ofthe treaty will be most
vigorously adhered to- No privateers of any
description will be suffered to depart from
any Spanish possession Mr. Buchanan main
tains distinctly that any violation ofthc treaty
would be just cause of war.-JlaA

FIRE. On Thursday last, about o'clock
P, NJ. flames were perceived bursting through
the roof of the long wooden building known
as " The Recess" belonging to the estate OF
the late Judge Wheeler, situated on the east
side of the Greek, in this village. The fire
had obtained such Roadway, and spread so
rapidly, that not the least hope was entertain
ed of saving the binding, aud the efforts Of
our citizens were devoted to saving what
they could Of the furniture, &c. and to the
preservation of the neighboring buildings
In less than two hours the entire building
and large portion of its contents were con-
sumed.
The upper part of the building was occu-
pied by Mr.. John Bennett as a Cabinet shop.
Much of the furniture which he had on hand
was burned, and that which escaped the fire
was materially damaged. Mr.. B. was insured
we understand, in the sum Of 81 ,500-which
will probably cover his loss.
Among the sufferers by the fire was Mr..
John Gardner, workman in the employ of
Mr.. Bennett, who lost, in tools, clothing, &c +,
about $780, Whitehall Dem.
