means of few qualifying words, it could shell
ter Slavery from the force of the quotation. But,
in this, it fell into great mistake Its greater
mistake, however, was in presuming to quote
the Bible at all. The Administration should
have been aware that the Bible is holy weapon,
and is therefore fitted to Anti-Slayery, instead
of pro-slavery, hands. They should have been
aware, that it is more dangerous for pro-slavery
men to undertake to wield this weapon, than
it is for children to play with edge tools. The
Bible can never be used in behalf of bad
cause, without detrimont to such cause.
l conclude, Mr.. Chairman, by expressing the
hope, that this egregious blunder of the Ad-
ministration, in calling the Bible to its help
a blunder, BY the way, both as ludicrous and
wicked as it is cgregious- now that the
blunder Is exposed, be not without its good cf-
feet, in the way of admonition. trust, that
this pro-slavery Administration, and, indeed,
all pro-slavcry parties and pro-slavery persons,
will be cffoctually admonished by this blunder
to let the Bible entirely alone, until they shall
have some better cause than Slavery to serve by

GREAT coNFLAeRAT1oN IN NEW YORK.

GREAT CONFEDERATION IN NEW YORK.
A fire broke out in the city of New York
about one o'clock on Tuesday morning, Dec.
9th, which destroyed several large ware
houses and communicated to the shipping,
where the destruction of property was i'm
mense, including the Great Republic, and
her valuable cargo.
Of the shipping the packet Joseph Walker,
belonging to the Black Star line was destroy
ed the clipper White Squall was towed
down the river mass of flames. The clip
per Red Rover was towed out of dock in
flames, and was eventually burnt to the wa
ter's edge. Many other vessels were burnt
in their spars rigging, or hull.
The greatest less by this fre-the one
that will cause thrill of sorrow in every
American heart, is the almost total destruc-
ton of that magnificent clipper, the Great
Reeabhc.( She was lying at her pier re-
ceiving her freight previous to her depart
ure for Liverpool, which was to take place in
a few days. The flames seized upon her lofty
masts more than two hundred feet above the
deck, and beyond the reach of the engines.-
The burning materials fell upon the deck and
in an incredibly short time she was burnt to
the waters edge. An attempt was made to
scuttlc her but the water was not deep
enough to sink her.
The Grr0t Republic was built the present
season at East Boston by Donald Mckay
She was the largest vessel in the world and
was built as substantially as any man-of-war,
to whioh she could readily have been altered
when necessary. Her length was nearly $50
feet. Some idea of her capacity may be
gathered from the amount Of her cargo,
among which We're 900 tierces of beef, 1000
barrels Of -four, 1000 bales of cotton, 1000
barrels of resin, eco chests of tea land $4,000
bushels Of wheat and corn. Her cost was
nearly $500, 000. Mr.. Mckay, her builder
and owner, had been offered $4,000 more
than her entire cost and has refused the Of
fer. The amount of insurance on the YES
sci was S2S0,000. The whole amount of
loss by the fire is estimated in round num-
bers at 100000. In addition to pecuni-
airy loss the destruction of the Great Repub-
lie may be properly regarded as national
calamity. The presence of this magnificent
ship in foreign port would inspire feelings
Of patriotic pride, by all who cherish re-
gard for the honor of the "stripes and stars"

From the Boston Commonwealth.
A CASE OF CORPORAL PUNISHMENT.

A FEW days since, Kentuckian, named
Payne, visited Canada, in order to decoy
certain fugitive slaves across the line, it is
said, where they would become subject to the
fugitive slave bill. He was after " three
boys" who had escaped from a plantation in
Trimble County. He said he "would like to
see them-had favors to confer upon them
would give them free papers; )" but the "boys"
could not be induced to 60 over to Detroit,
as he wished, although thad been given out
that they were sick of life in Canada, and
very anxious to return to Kentucky.
One of these fugitiyes, named Alfred, had
an old account to settle with this slave-hun-
ter. Payne had at a former time brutally
aoggel Al'red's mother, by throwing he'll OH
the ground and giving her fifty lashes on the
bare back. Oae account of this matter says,
eve cannot give the reason for this brutal,
though customary act" Alfrel had long
thirsted for revenge, and he took this occa-
sion to square the account according to his
notion of justice. Payne visited his hut to
coax him over to Detroit, and while in the
hut he received regular plantation 1ogglng,
such as he had been accustomed to admins
ter to the sort of people from which he now
received this peculiar delight of slavery. The
Detroit Dcm0crat says =
"Thc fugitivcs threw Payne upon his face,
pulled off his boots and pants, stripped up
has coat and shirt, and Alfred gave him twice
as many blows as Payne had given his moth
cr and if Alfred has the soul of man, the
miserable wretch felt every blow he gave him
The whip which was used was one that had
been usei on Southern plantation and it
is kept at Windsor for the purpose to which
it was applet on Sunday last"

Hear her in the following:
THE MoRMoys AND PoLYGAMY,-A new
question is likely to arise in politics. "Shall
the mormons with their polygamy, be admit
ted into the Union 2" We wish to commit
ourselves in advance, and say yes, certainly,
to be sure why not? We have thirteen
States now, in which polygamy is practical,
and provided for by law. We have an adj
mihstration whose chief business it is to de-
fend, spread, and perpetuate the institution.
Now, VIC like variety, and rs these thirteen
States have all one kind of polygamy, and
the Mormons another, we want the Salt Lake
folks to make up collection. We have long
been in national communion with set of
men who keep concubinos and sell their chill
drcn. We should like a specimen of those
who educate and support all of their off
spring.
To our minds, II plurality of wives is de-
cent and proper, compared to purchasing
mistresses like sheep, as do our brethren of
the South, or yet to licensing brothels and
gaming and drinking houses, MS do the "ia-
Tiers" of our Eastern cities.
While men are sole legislators, they will
provide for their own vices, and we think
the Mormons have by far taken the most de-
cent course. The present members of this
confederacy have not been and are not SO
very crcumspect in their own morals that
they need be very prudish about their compa-
