The loss by the great fire in Montreal, is es-

about A. NJ at the corner of st. Peters and
Lamorine streets, consuming two children
From this it spread to the old St. Andrews
Church. The dwelling house of Mike Mahony
and others were consumed, then crossing the
street, communicated to the store of Bryan,
Brothers q CO., then to the Custom House,
which soon shared the same fate. The strong
south wind prevailing, carried the flames TO ST.
Pauls, communicating with the store building
occupied by the customs consuming that and
the store Of Seymour & Whitney, also some
out-buildings in rear of rockingham d. Work
mans The fire then extended down both sides
the street as far as st. Joseph street, where it
was subdued. Several houses facing the steam
boat wharf were consumed.

n- We are happy in being able to place at
the head of our paper this week the names of
the nominees of the Baltimore Democratic Con-
vention. FRANKLIN PIERCE, is, and has long
been distinguished as one of the public men of
our country. In the councils Of the nation his
course has been characterized with honesty and
firmness Of purpose; he has ever kept aloot
from all petty intrigues and log rolling that so
often disgrace public bodies and public men
always found advocating and sustaining meas.
ures that pertain to the well being and the great
est good of our whole country firm adherent
to the constitution and its compromises in the
fullness Of their spirit and meaning-the ripe
statesman in peace, the patriot in war, the pride
of his own Granite State, where men of iron
nerve are raised the delight of the social cir.
Gle, of home and its vicinity. Such are n few
of the good qualities that encirce the brow Of
our nominee for the greatest office in the world
His name and fair fame will be a tower OF
strength to the Democratic cause in every State
in the Union. For reconciling the factions Of
New York and some of the other States, per
haps no better nomination could have beer
made We much deplore the defeat of LEWIS
CAss, our own favorite, and the most able o.
statesmen; still we bow in perfect submission
to the wisdom Of the Convention, and heartily
adopt their choice as our own.

The Cincinnati Wines.

A few weeks ago the junior mem.
Der of Corneau & Son, Of Cincinnati,
invited party of distinguished gem
tlemen of our city to meet him at Nib
los saloon, to partake Of some spe-
cimens of their rich Catawba wines.
With the erepast, we are told, that pre-
ceded the production of the famous
sparkling Champagne, Mr.. Corneau
placed upon the table specimens of
the " still " wines manufactured by
him some from the Isabella grape,
but this only by way of contrast with
that made from the Catawba, or native
grape. This is a delicately favored
hook and might be easily mistakin for
the true Rhine wine. The sparkling ar
tice which followed is the same made
into champagne, by what process the
same as in the manufacture Of. the
French wine) the intelligent manu-
facture explained to the company !;
who appeared to enjoy the interesting
description given by him of the mode
Of culture, of manufacture, &C., as
much as they did the flavor of the
Catawba itself, The demand for the
Ohio wines, he said, was far beyond the
possibility of supply. But very small
quantity Of them reaches our market
on the sea-bord, they have been taken
up by the Western purchasers, as soon
as they are made, and even engaged
beforehand. Mr.. Corneau said that
he had been obliged, since he hasbssa.
in the city, to decline large orders from
his inability to fill them. Our friends,
the Messrs. Harpers, seem to have
drawn aside by them, as in their July
monthly Magazine they have been seen
fit to pronounce upon them eulogy,
and that alongside a tremendous Maine
Law engraving. But the day has
gone by, we believe, for at least Amer
lean teetotalIers to be gulled with any
thing under the appellation Of mild
wines, or pure unadulterated wines, or
good wine. Where alcohol is, there
is the serpent, and It matters not
whether it be born and bred in Amer
lea or France. On the most favorable
supposition that they are pure, unadul-
terated, and even not branded, they
all tend to create the appetite Of the
inebriate, and no man can stand
pledged for them an hour after they
come into the market, that they are
what they pretend to be. Here, on the
broad principle of total abstinence
from all intoxicating liquors, as bev-
erage, in the entire excision oftheir use
and sale, can the American people
stand with safety and standing here
they are blessed in them selves, and
blessed in their children within them.

EE We take the following from
the New England Farmer, a Boston
paper:
The LIQUOR Law.

paper
The Liquor Law.
The new liquor law appears to be
pretty generally observed throughout
the State except in this city, where
the sale, licensed and unlicensed, is
continuing as before. Prosecutions
have not yet been commenced, but il
is understood that preparations are
nearly ready for the opening Of the var.
The East Boston Vigilance Committee
have called uuon all the unlicensed
liquor sellers in that section Of the
city, and given them warning that IN
less they shut up shop within certain
time they will be "putoverthe road"
In most cases the committee was cour-
teously received, and those upon whom
they called promised that they would
abandon the traffic at once. Many
of them said they had already done
so. In one or two instances the keep
ers of the shops showed considerable
fight, and threatened hard if anything
further was done by fhe temperance
people.

In Rhode Island, the law is wofk-
ing well. Several seizures Of liquor
have been made in Providence, and
the work of destruction has already
commenced. The following figures
from the journal of that city, show
ing the number of commitments to
the watch houses for drunkenness and
other causes connected Herewith, tell

ding to the Journal, "the law is opeh-

On the best of authority it is SAID
the reported disapproval of Queen
