dred passengers and $500, 900 in gold freight.
The dates from San Francisco are to the 18th

to disastrous food with which several towns bor-
dering rivers had been visited. The Telegraphic
report of it is as follows:
Sacramento, Nevada, and Marysyile had been com
pleely overlooked The damage has been frighul, and
all CONSERVATION at the latest date. The loss
aryssle is estimated at one hundred thousand dollars

houses hoated down the river. At Marysvle all the
stores were submerged. large quantity Of goods
destroyed At Nevada quartz mills the theatre EN-
pire hotel, and several houses were swept away The

There is no doubt that every bridge on the South and
Middle Fork rivers shared the same fate The country

Mr.. WEBSTER AND THE COMPROMISE.


Mr.. q. A. TAyENNER, of Alexandra, having adj
dressed Mr. WEBSTER on the subject Of the Com
promise has drawn from him the following reply,
which is published in the Alexandria Gazette
WASHINGTON, APRIL 10, 1852.
DEAR Sin: have the honor to acknowledge the
cept OF your letter Of the 9Th instant and thank you for
what you are pleased to say of my fidelity great
uonal wing principles trust there is not man ia the
country who doubts my appreciation Of those
which are usually called Compromise Measures" my
fixed determination to uphold them steadily and firmly.
Nothing but deep Of duty led take the part
which did take in bringing about their adoption by Con-
gress, and that of duty with unabat
ed force am of opinion that those measures and
ALL were necessary and expedient and ought to be adj
hered to by all friends Of the Constitution and all lovers
OF their country. That among them which appears
to have given the greatest dissatisfaction the
fugitive slave law hold to be law entirely constu
ona highly proper and absolutely essential to the peace
OF the country Such law is demanded by the plain
written words Of the Constitution and how any can
wish to abrogate destroy it, and the time say
that he is supporter of the Constitution and willing
adhere to those provisions in which clear and posi-
tive nunctons and restraints passes my power Of
prehension My belief is that when the passions Of
subsSde and reason and true patriotism allowed
PlVPcr sway, the puDHc mlnu NOrtn anu SOUTH
viii come to proper state upon these questions. do
not believe that further agitation make any consider
able progress at the North The great Of the
pie, Lam sound, and have wish interfere
with such things are, by the Constitution placed
der the exclusive control Of the separate States
noticed indeed not without regret certain proceedings
to which you have alluded and in regard these
to say that gentlemen may think necessary or
per that they should be called upon to affirm by resou
ton that which is already the existing law of the land
That any positive to repeal or alter any or all
of the Compromise Measures would with any gene
raj encouragement or support do not at all believe
But however that may be- my sentiments remain
and are likely to remain, quite unchanged. am in favor
Of uphodng the Constitution in the general and all its
particulars am in favor of respecting its authority
and obeyns its inunctions and to the end of life shall
do all in my power to fulfil honestly and faithfully all its
provisions. look upon the Compromise Measures as a
proper fair and final adjustment Of the questions to which
they relates and no reagtaton Of those questions
new opening of them effort to create dissatisfaction
with them, will receive from the least counte-
nance or support, concurrence approval, any time,
or under any circumstances.

BURNING OF HONG KONG. fcurSA.,

BY way of California we have accounts from Hong
Kong to the 4th January, bringing intelligence of
disastrous conAagration in that settlement The
San Francisco Herald of the 9th March says:
"Neary all the city is consumed Hundreds of lives
have been lost Every newspaper Office has been destroy
ed. The barque brings files, and dependant
the officers Of the vessel for the few particulars which
subjon.
I" The fire occurred on the Goth December, and COM
menced in the China Bazaar. II spread with fearful ra-
pidty among the bamboo houses of the Chinese and
communicated to the finest part Of the city, becoming per-
fectly resistless
"The loss of life among the Chinese was dreadful The
number that persisted had not been ascertained One
colonel Of English regiment lost his life in the attempt
to blow up building and arrest the flames Also lieu
tenant belonging TO her Britannia Maestys ship Hastings
was killed by the falling timbers Of a house which had
been blown up sergeant Of sappers and miners met
similar fate.
/" The public market destroyed and much suffer-
ing experienced for few days after the fire. The
Governor and Sir VIM Bowmen had convoked the Coun-
Gil and among other provisions adopted for the public
welfare was one forbiddng the construction Of bamboo

Mr.. CLAY AND NJ. KossUTH.
PROM THE NEW ORLEANS BEE OF ArRIL 9.

ORLEANS APRIL 9.
We have been kindly permitted by gentleman
Of this city to transcribe the annexed passage from
letter received by him day or two ago from the
illustrious and venerable HENRY CLAY It is in
reference to subject concerning which much has
been said While KossUTH has exonerated himself
from the charge of disrespect to or vituperaon of
Mr.. CLAY, if we understand him Alright, he still
believes that the publication of the particulars of
their interview was breach Of confidence at which
he was excessively provoked" From Mr. CLAY's
language it would appear that this interview was
not regarded as confidential, and that KossUTH has
no right whatever to complain of its having been
made public. We think so too:
WASHINGTON, MARCH 80, 1852 II
81 have distinctly understood what NJ. KossuTH
said Of me Louisville certainly had given him no
cause Of offence. The interview between him and me
be regarded private it certainly not
confidential one 1t attended by three members of
Congress- and the Attorney of the United States for this
District and would have been by others but my feeble
of health What had said in the interview with
Kossuth variously and sometimes conradicorily
represented ia the newspapers. Under these circum-
stances Mr.. EWING, of the members in attendance
preaced the statement which has been published and the
substantial accuracy Of which had been veriSed by
other attending member. Over my own sentiments and
language thought had entire CONTROL Just Gen. CAss
thought proper the Senate of the United States
what he had said to M. Kossuth upon their first inter-
view. Mr. EWING, in his statement, treated NJ Kossuth
with perfect respect and said nothing to compromt him
in the slightest degree Such dear sir the origin
and such the motives OF the publication alluded TO-
