THE FUGITIVE BURNED.

On Sunday night Oct 9Th about ? o'clock,
the Office of the Voice Of the Fugitive in Wind
sor, c. w with all of its contents, was consum-
ed by fire, together with several other apart
ment4 occupied by families in an adjoining
building.
Mr. Bib gives his reasons for believing the
fire to be the work Of an incendiary, and then
adds
The Voice of the Fugitive has been cloven
down, and partially silenced by the hand Of an
incendiary, We have some reason to believe
and the loss to US has truly been great one
They have destroyed for us in one night
more than all We have accumulated by ardu-
Gus labor and economy during the last three
years.
The great question with us now il, not wheth-
er we shall suspend the publication of our little
sheet OF not for the future for upon this point
our mind is fully made up.
We shall 20 forth in the name of outraged
humanity, firmly relying on the promises of
God and the justice of our cause for success
Our first object in sending forth this Extra
Sheet is to inform our patrons that the VoiCe
Of the Fugitive and Canadian Independent is not
dead, though crippled; but Just as soon as we
can repair the breach little we assure our
readers that the Fugitives in Canada shall be
heard from again, through this paper, regu-
larly.

DER NATIONAL DEMoKRAr.--Ths is the title of a
new German weekly paper, large quarto printed
on fine white paper and in the best typographical
style IL is edited in Washington ID C., by Froder-
ck Schmidt formerly editor of the kirchsn .sitnng
in Pittsburgh. As Mr.. Schmidt is known to be a
gentleman of superior abilities, thoroughly educated
and withal fearless advocate OF revealed religion
and sound morals, and is pledged to oppose the liccn
tious and infdc character of too many of the Ger
man papers of our country, should rejoice to hear
OF the success OF this great enterprise though may
not endorse all the standp points assumed in his
paper Romanism and infdelity, with their conso
qucnt tendency TO Reorganization and distraction in
politics and morals, the great and most threaten
ing evils in our country and five not mistaken
the National D,mohrdt will be formidable oppo-
ncnt Of these alarming evils and skilful advocate
of rational freedom and sound virtue. Under these
impressions, We have no hcsitancy in warmly recon-
mcnding the paper in question. The principal dc
sign says Mr.. S. of this publication, is TO circulate
among our vast German population n family ncwspa-
per advocating Christian and FREQ Democratic prin-
ciples, fully discussed in prospectus, which has
been freely circulated among the friends of genuine
liberty and of the rights of man.

Asylum of Blackwells Island. Who can read

"Here is women whom Joy has deprived
of her senses. Her husband and child we're

ing down to The shore every day as if with
the wish of being nearer the beioved objects
that lay buried beneath the sea, suddenly
she beheld them standing from a vessel
which had picked them up and saved them.
An overwhelming food of joy pervaded her
bosom-and then reason was gone forever.
She never has known them since, but sits on
what she thinks the same rock, where she
used to bewail their fate, wringing her hands
and moaning most piteously-while every
week the husband and son come andgaze on
her face, in hope to rouse one CLEAN of memo

the youthful mind, and imperceptibly to lead
it on to more serious subjects; the second
part contains historical subjects in poetry. ex-
citing the youth to taste for ancient history,
so much needed to form the character of a
true gentleman. The third part contains 4
a great variety of rich poems on Fheology.---
The fourth and last part, is perfect Scripture
al exposition of what the Scientific call AMI
NAL Magnetism; and. to the last part is at
tached an appendix, or Scriptural exposition
of evil spirits, together with lengthy supple-
ment containing the authors views of Divine
Revelation-closing with voyage down the
stream Of time The poetic efusions are not
only rich but musical-containing every kind
of measure-Pastoral Comedy, ,Tradegy, Pin

Important Movement.

We are glad to learn that an energetic
movement has been made, to construct a
Rail- Road from Fremont to Defiance.
We are informed that the people on the
route have been consulted, and are enthusias-
tic in support of the enterprise, and will give
it hearty material support. Grants for de-
pot ground at different points, and good
portion of the route are already secured on the
most fattering terms. Corporate powers are
already conferred on a number of our most en-
terprising and wealthy citizens. The road
will be built, and that without delay, and
then Fremont and the rich and extensive re.
gion west OF it will begin their march on the
road to that state of wealth and commerce fol
which nature evidently designed them. Her
interests are increasing from her present ad-
vantagcs. A plank road leads from Ere
mont to Rome One from Fremont to Tifin
and one from Fremont to the Green Springs
besides Mc'Cadamised road running from
Bellevue to Maumee River and passing
through Fremont thus giving it the advan.
tage of eastern travel. The Sandusky River
is navigable to the corporation thus giving il
fair chace for every possible improvement
that is calculated to render it a desirable point
for Eastern Capitalists who wish to locate in
the west, for the purchacee of real-estate OF
other property. They can find none more
profitable than Fremont in, which to invest
their capital. Her market is always thronged
with produce from her own viainity and that
of other districts 25 and so miles distant.

The night grows late, the streets are hush
ed-the moon-beams fleek the deserted pave
ment-and sleep strews its slumberous pop
pies over the inhabitants of the silent city
All are at rest save the printer, who is busy
al his case.
Dreams, lovely as winged cherubs, hovef
about the repose of man and maiden; visiols
as pure as the first lilies and beautiful as the
matron and child-but to the printer all is re.
ality, toll and WEAKNESS.
How nimbly and cheerfully does he adjust
the faithful types, as if he took "no note oi
time"-as if the duties that are wearing out
his life were more diversion than labori
Gus avocation. But amid their monotonous
discharge, believe US, the printer thinks oi
home and sweet rest and sighs within him,
self for the better lot of which others are pos.
sessessed. And yet there is no repose for him
though the night tramps on, and the jocund
dawn will soon appear.
Why do his motions grew less rapid? why
move his finger in so deliberate and mechani-
cal way? Whence is the smile that fingers
at his lip, like the sunbeam at the gates oi
morning? There is a gentle presence at
his side-an eye, blue as Violets, glancing in
to his own-an accent sweet as music, en-
trancing his ear, and reaching his very heart
1t is but moment-itis is only revery-
it did not even win him from his occupation
it only caused his hand to falter, not to
cease--the printer awakens to busy toll
again.
Ye who receive your sunrise favorite, and
wander, perhaps'Iistlessly over its pages, re-
member that it is the fruit of toll which was
active and untiring while your convenience
and comfort are bought with the price o.
WEAKNESS.
There is an 'electric chord" which being
chai ged with sympathy. will carry the gentle
burden even to the most distant hearts. We
bespeak its agency in behalf of the faithful
printer-Butf. Ex.
