Dr. Lykins came to knowledge of the

The wonder is how this singular arti-
Gle came into their possession. When
asked how long they can trace back its
history, they reply they cannot tell the
time when they had it not. The qucs-

WAsnINGroS, Jan. 10.
Chev. Hulseman, in a letter to the
President, on Friday last, enquiries
whether Mr.. Webster, in his speech at
the Kossuth Banquet spoke as Secretary
OF State, and if the views there ex-
pressed are the views of the United
States. If they a'e answered in the atlir-
native, it will be his duty to withdraw
from his post as Charge de Aflaires, and
await the instructions of his Government
as TO the course he shall pursue.
Mr.. H. has departed from the usual
course by addressing the President. He
says that he can have no communication
whatever with Mr.. Webster, as private
individual in his official capacity, after
his denunciation of the Austrian Govern
ment. Mr.. H. has been requested pri-
yately, 10 withdraw his note, and if he
does not Go so, he will be permitted to
retire to some other city, and there await
his instructions.
Mr.. Webster, it is said, had not an
swered and will not answer his commu-
nication. 1t is reported that the Prcsi-
dent and Chev. H. have settled the diff
Guilty.
New YORK, Jan. 13.
About eight o'clock this morning an
alarm of fire was given in the Sixth Dis
trict. Upon repairing to the building,
li0 Center Street, it was found that a
false alarm was given by an old woman.
The building is five stories high and oc-
cupied by company Of migrants as a
depot for them, of whom there were said
to be 500 in the building. When the
alarm was given rush was made for
the stairs, jam was the result, which
was followed by a catastrophe similar to
that which happened at the School House
in Greenwich Avenue. The railing Of
the stairs, yielding to to the weight pres
sing down upon the mass below, crush
ing and smothering those who had fallen
first.
The Police Of the 9th District repaired
to the spot and made almost superhuman
efferts 10 extricate the wretched beings
who were wedged between the walls, but
before the passage could be cleared, 6
persons were smothered. 1t is thought
that five Of the injured would die. A
number of those taken out were entirely
naked, their cloths having been torn off
in the efforts made to extricate them.
