FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE.-The dwelling
house Of Mr.. Nathaniel Stone near the
east line Of this township took fire on Fri
day last about 9 o'clock inthe evening and
was almost instantly consumed. Mr. and
Mrs. Stone who were below, barely escaped
with what little clothing could be caught up
at the moment. A son and daughter, up
stairs, were alarmed; but they seem to have
been troubled to find the window on account
of the smoke, the stairs being already on
fire. The son, at last, found the window,
called to his sister who replied, "well,'' and
threw himself ont. His sister, young
woman of % years Of age, persisted;
nothing more having been seen or heard
Of her. She was probably suffocated by
the smoke. IS
The contents ofthe house were, Of course,
all destroyed.-O Ohio Observer, Feb. 10Th.

rous denuncaton of the President. The demo-
Gratis were driven, some of them, to unwilling sup
port OF the administration, in self defence. But
as soon as the wings adopted the milder and more
sure upon the ranks of the democrats had par
tally ceased dssension began to appear in the
midst Of the latter. The friends Of Mr.. Calhoun,
in the Senate, and those of Mr.. Wright, in the
House, were most active in producing this dis
union. The Wilmot proviso was again brought
up in a different form, by Mr.. Preston King Of
New York, but the House totally repudiated his
bill. The proviso itself was moved afterwards
by its author, as an amendment to the three mil
lions appropriation bill. A large party was still
IN favor OF II, but not by any means so large
that which had carried it through the House the
previous session. A large maj rty OF nine on an
unusually full vote, gave token of its ultimate
failure.
But while these things were passing in the
House, Mr.. Calhoun and his friends, holding the
balance OF power in the Senate, were aiding the
wings TO thwart the administration. MIR. Cal
hon''s hostility TO the present administration is
easily traced to the causes detailed in my letter OF
Yesterday, and is further explained by the fact
that he was Secretary OF State at the close of Mr.
lylers administration. His friends have unde-
viatingy followed his lead, and he has thus far
been enabled to control the vote OF the senate
Mr.. Benton gave the administration a sort OF
sulky support Sulky is not the exact word. He
was pompous and patronizing, and defended the
PRESIDENT against every body but himself. Mr..
Cass gave the administration quiet, temperate,
anu uiRnlneu support. Inc wings, Whatever their
diversity of feeling, betrayed none in the senate
chamber, except on the anti slavery amendment
introduced by Mr.. Upham. But even then there
was silent vote-no discussion.
These are the prominent subdivisions OF party
in the Twenty ninth Congress. There were
others ofless importance-such as the division on
the tea and coffee question, the Lieutenant-gen-
eralshp, the Ireland relief bill, (about which |
Will have something TO say land others not OF sui-
hcient general interest to demand eucidation.-
The course of Mr.. Calhoun and his friends has
united the democratic party in support of the
administration. The number of maecontents is
now very small. Harmony prevails to greater
extent than one could have thought possible at
the close OF the first session. And yet, l very
much doubt II the two great parties that have so
long divided the country, can ever again hedge
themselves round with those barres which, dur
ing the Twenty-ninh Congress, were not only
thrown down, but broken into small fragments.
