DEATH on zscHoKKE.

The celebrated German writer, IIENRl
ZsCHoEKE, died at Aarau, in Switzerland, on the
9th June, in the 18th year Of his age. His name
fills no mean page in the annals OF German lit
erature and Swiss history. A native Of Magde-
burg, in Prussia; Zschokke commenced life by
joining company Of strolling players, and az
forwards studied philosophy and divinity at
Frankfort. on-the-0der. After many years OF
travel and varied adventures, he devoted him.
self TO the education Of youth, and fixed his resi-
denee in Switzerland at the close Of the last
century. His political services to Switzerland
were important, and he ever after considerable
as his adopted country. For the last forty years
he resided in hs peaceful retreat at Aarau, while
his pen has almost increasingly brought forth
works Of philosophy, history, criticism and fc-
ton The mere enumeration Of his productions
would considerably exceed the limits Of this
sketch. They belong to thepure school OF clas-
sic German Literature, and his histones OF Ba.
varia and Switzerland remain as noble monu-
menis Of his talent. His beautiful tales have
been translated into almost every language. His
checkefed life had endowed him with rare in
sight into the springs of human action, and
few Writers OF any age or country have more
largely contributed, during the course Of long
life, TO entertaili andimprcye their fellow men.

On Saturday the 18th Of June, we had in Peru
one Of those dreadful fires which are the curse
Of Constantinople. The fire consumed upward.

and respectable class Of Armenian, European

at ESOO,OO0, without taking into account fully
1000 families who removed their goods, chat

constructed by the Government for the medical
professors Of Galatn-Serai has been consumed
as also a number Of large stone houses, which
had so far resisted the fury Of the flames.

The following is, from the National Intelhgen.
Ger of last Friday;
'The readers Of yesterdays proceedings OF the
House of Representatives will be struck with q
remarkable incident which occurred in that body,
and one, we believe, without example in our Con.
gressional history, We refer TO the rejection Of
the bill making appropriations for the civil and
diplomatic serviceof the government for the cur.
rent fiscal year. The ground Of this strong pro
ceeding, we learn, was the invincihle objection
of one side OF the House TO the item appropna-
ting $50, 600 for the removal Of certain obstruc.
tons in the Savannah river. We presume, how,
ever, that the motion pending AT the adjournment
of The House to reconsider the vote Of rejection
will ultimately prevail, and the bill be passed
either with or without the offensive item, and
that the wheels OF government will not be al.
lowed to stop for want Of the necessary appropn.
