Courageous Faith.

Nr. Eiacaid relates the fol'oming incident,
arikingly illustrative cf The character Of the
Christian Rarms.
Two young Karens, from the province
Of pantauna, were sent here BY the pas
tor Of a church to bring letters and to get
a few books. Ten New restamcnts, Pill.
grim's Progress, seven tractsaad two hymn
books, were wanted. They remained Two
days and then set of OIL their long j"ur'
ney back. The books were carefully roll
led up and put in the bottom Of a basket,
and then the ba.kc. filled up with rice and
dried fish. This done, they gave the part.
ing hand, and in trcmulous voice said to
each ole Of US, "pray for US, thu, we may
he delivered from the calamity Of falling
into the hands Of officers with these
books" Two Christian boys, some six.
teen or seventeen years Old, trusting in
God, set of on journey Of lS0 miles to
&C, this handful Of books. Hero is faith
that will remove mountains.

Tho Arctic Searchi

Commodore Wilkes has cointnunlca.
ted letter to the National 1ntelligcn-
Ger, giving his opinion ofthe probable
Effectiveness ofany farther search for
the lost expedition of Sir John Frank
lin. He considers any further search
in vessels would be but lost labor,
time, and expence, as he says it is evi.
dent to the simplest mind, that if ves-
sels can trach Sir John, and if he can
be by them approached, he certainly
would be enabled to get out. He
recommends, as the only and true
course, a thorough exploration over
the ice by sledges or boats, under n
well organized system Of operations.
He maintains that such search would
certainly result in the discovery of
some tidings Of the fate of the gallant
Franklin aud his companions.

Destructive frs.-At about a quarter

Destructive frs.-At about a quarter
past ten o'clock last night, fire broke
out in the Iron and Nail Warehouse Of
Campbell, Chess & Co., on Water street,
below Ferry, which, in a very short time,
en,irely destroyed that building,-'ogesh'
er with lare amount Of stock. The fire
also communicated with the warehouse OF
jacob Forsyth Jr., on tho lower side, and
with the building on the upper eide, in
which is the office Of the Surveyor OF the
Port: The two latter buildings were great.
" injured; and also the stock in savsEal
other stores in the block The whole
block at one time seemed to be in great
danger; but the efforts OF our vallisnt
rirenlen were so faithfully directed, that
only the three stores named were much
injured; and as much stock was removed
as it was possible to reach.
The fire spread to the extensive ware
house Of J. Irwin & Sons, which together
with the contents (rops, hemp, co'dage'
&C., was entirely consumed. The bull;
dings occupied BY S. Irwin & Sons. j
Forsyth jr., Edwards, Morris & Co., were
entirely destroyed. together with the con-
tents. The buildings were owned by
Messrs Irwin & Sons, and were insured
together with portion Of shoir con'entS.
The warehouses Of Mcssrs T. Woods
s. Son, Armstrong, Crczar & Co, and
Lorenz & Whiteman were partly insured.
The loss altogether will not fall far short

Mixed Marriages.

The Dublin (Ireland) Evening Mail
contains the following:-"An edic
similar to that which has created so
much domestic and social unhappiness
in Belgium, has been promulgated in
many, if not all, the Roman Catholic
places of worship. against mixed mar
riages, interdicting henceforward the
intcrmarriage of Romanists with
heretics. 1.-THE prohibition went no
further. we should advise its adoption
toto cnlo. But it is accompanied by
a strict injunction to those Roman
Catholics who are now SO uniteo, to
employ every possible means to gain
over their partners to the same faith; /;
never to intcrmit the most strenuous
exertions for that purpose and on no
account to agree or abide by any pre-
vious contract binding them to con.
sent to the bringing up Of any one of
their children out Of the pale of the
Roman Church. This command, be-
ing accompanied with dcnunciations
of heavy penalties upon the disobe'
dent, will lay the foundation of much
domestic misery, and lead to the total
disruption of confidence and peace
between many whom the law of God
and of this land hath joined together
for mutual support and reliance"
