From tie Quebec Mercury Of June l3h.1
IL has sgain pleased the Almighty TO shl ct
our already chaslened city. Last night at II
O'Clock, fire broke out in the Theatre Royal,
Lewis street, formerly the Riding School.
AT The close Of Mr.. Harrison's exhibition of
bis chemical doroms, (from the information we
nave been able TO gesn,) cAmphine lamp was
ovefses rom some cause or other, and the stage
at once became developed in flames. The
house had been denseIy crowded. but some had
fortunately left before the accident. rush
was at once made for the staircase leading from
The boxes by those who, in the moment OF ex.
element, forgot the other passages of egress.
In an incredibly short space Of time, the whole
OF the interior of the building was enveloped in
one sheet of fame.
The newly erected platform, covering the
PIT and communicating at each end with the
stage and boxes favored the progress of the
fames. The staircase communicated with the
boxes. II had fallen from the weight OF those
who crowded upon il; one foot was interposed
between the hapless crowd and eternity, and
on that space, we, with five or six others stood
the fierce flame around us, and the dense smoke
repelling all efforts to extrleate us. As far back
as we could see, there was a sea of heads and
wrthing bodies and outstretched arms. NOISE
there was none; and though but few means Of
escape was presented to the doomed, yet at the
extreme end faces could be seen calm and re-
signed, Of persons who as the funeral pail Of
smoke gradually eDshrouded them, appeared to
drop into eternal sleep.
BY our side was one brother striving to ex.
tricate another, but abandonment was unavoi.
dabie. One poor creature at our feet offered
his entire worldly wealth for his rescue.
The agonizing expression Of the faces before
US can never be etfaced from our memory. The
flames at the time were above and around US
but human aid was of no avail. In five minute
from the time of which we make mention TIL
mass of human beings who had bot short in
terva previously been the enjoyment of tu
and active life, were exposed to our view
mass ofcalcined bones.
| Up TO this hour, forty-sx bodies have bee
recovered from the ruins. Most Of them ha7
bean recognized. A greater loss of life thai
in the two dreadful CONGREGATIONS Of last sun
mer. Sad wailing pervaLes the city. Scarcel,
a street can be trapereed in which the closed
'shutter or the hanging Grape do not betoken q
sudden bereavement.
Fathers, sisters, and children of both sexes,
indulge in the deepest lamentations over the
calamity, which has fallen upon many of those
who were thus suddenly and awfully summon.
ed into The presence OF their Creator.

CALlrORNlA-CAPTAIN FREMON1

Letters have been received at the Navy De-
partment from Montery, bearing as late date
April 18Th.
The unwaranted attempt to drive Capt,
Fremont from the country has already been al
uded to in the newspapers. After having been
ordered away By Don Jose Castro, commandant
general, Captain f. expecting an attack, for,.
fed himself about twelve leagues distant from
Monterey. Castro assembled about 1000 men
in front OF the entrenchnent. After remaining
there three days, he concluded TO treat, when
it was discovered that the party had quietly
gone off, leaving some old saddles and trash
which the Callfornians magnifed into munitions
of war.
Three hundred rifemen offered their services
to Capt. L. but they were declined.
The movement against Capt Fremon,
seems to have been directed by the central
government of Mexico; but it is not believed
that the people of California entertained any i'll
towards him, or would willingly have done him
harm. His own conduct in the whole matter
seems to have been marked alike by courage
and discretion. We subjoin copy Of letter
written by him TO the American consul at Mon
terey, when in expectation of an attack, and re-
ceived by the consul in the evening If March
l0.-The captain remained in excellent health
and had gone North:
"MY An sif!-i this moment received your

quires instantly. ! am making myselfas strong
