ioT A very destructive fire occurred in
Cincinnati, on Tuesday night destroying one
or two stables on the south side of Fifth st.
between Main and Sycamore, and burning the
eastern portion of the Dennison House, with
much furniture, cloths and other valuables
belonging to the proprietors and boarders.-
So. sudden was the confagration that the in
mates escaped with great difficulty, being
scarcely-able to get the clothes they had
thrown off on retiring, Pickpockets were
about. as thick as blackberries, and noted
thief, Burt Mackay, came near getting hold
ofalot of jewellry belonging to Mrs. Denni-
son, but was fortunately prevented by being
recognized by one Of the fremen. Many val
liable articles were stolen. Mr.. Donnison's
loss was mostly covered by insurance. ~

The Tribune & Clipper copies an entire ar
ticle from the State Journal, that abundant
reservoir Of Misrepresentation, going to show
that George +. Pugh, the democratic candi-
date for Attorney General, was opposed to
the new constitution, and the article states
that there is the best democratic evidence 10
prove its assertion. Now, we happen to
know that there is no such evidence at all,
and we defy any whig paper or editor to pro-
duce it, On the contrary, having been mem
Der Of the convention that nominated him to
office, we know that the same statement was
alluded to in the convention and most fully
bnd completely refuted BY those intimately
acquainted with Mr.. Pugh and with all the
facts in the case. So much for another whig
electioneering Misrepresentation.

TIE STCA-sE;P ATLANTIC. The fail
urc of the steamer Canada to bring any
things Of The missing steamer Atlantic,
together with the return to Halifax OF
the English revenue cutter sent to Sable
Islands, without having heard or seen
anything Of her, has had the effect of
still further depressing the spirits of
those who are anxiously looking for the
safe retorn of friends and relatives. The
statement put forth by the Springfield
Republican is also very discouraging.
1t is to tina effect that one Of the officers
Of the Atlantic stated, Immediately af-
ter her last passage home, that during a
heavy gale on the voyage, she event so
much by the head" plunging deeper
and deeper, that it seemed as though she
would run under; and that the engines
had to be stopped several times to allow
her 10 come to. Still we Observe that
the New York papers have not yet lost
their confidence in her safety, and eX-
press the belief that the next steamer,
.he Africa. will bring accounts Of her
arrival at some of the ports on the Irish
coast. BAIT. Sun.

Mr.. " iNrH7op Is 40 LONGER SryA.
ToR.-Ihsre Ia a mistaken idea that Mr..
Winthrop will mold MS seat in the Sen.
ate until his successor appears to take
his place. This is not correct. The
constitution provides that if any vacan-
CITES happen, by resignation or otherwise
during the recess of the Legislature of
any State, The executive thereof NAV
make temporary appointments until the
next meeting Of the Legislature, which
shall then Fill vacancies.
Mr.. Winthrop, by courtesy and ad-
opted usage, has held over the meeting
OF the Legislature. But the vacancy is
now filed by the Legislature, and the
moment tbi; fact is officially communi-
Gated to the Senate, he ceases to be SEN
ator. The commission Of Mr.. Rautoul
will be; or has been forwarded to Mr..
Winthrop himself, as is customary in
like cases. When he receives It, it is his
duty to present it to the Senate and re-
tire. 1t is unnecessary that his success.
sor should be present or claim his seat
Alr. Rantoui's acceptance, therefore, is
not prerequisite to the retiring Of Mr..
Winthrop.---BoS!oa Post, Tuesdav.
