Like o succession of West India hurricanes.
the late autumnal elections have swept over
the land. Along their destructive tracks the
drift snd the rubbish Of the old wing ana de
mocratic parties are scattered in every direc-
ton. The whig party was, in fact, dispersed,
dsbanded and demolished in the campaign OF
80, and the democratic party has been torn
into fragments and thrown into hopeless con-
fusion OF factions, through the disorganiziag.
demoralizipg and suicidal spoils policy or
corrup. and imbecile administration.
There is no wing party-there Is no demo
cratic party. There remains only Of the late
overwhelming democratic forces which brought
General Pierce into power, party Of demo
cratic spoilsmen, like the Office holders party
Of John Tyler, or The spols party Of Van Buren,
In lS40. But from the ruins, the loose mate

parties of the last twenty. five years, there have
suddenly sprung up several new political or

naturally of contracted or disorganizing and
revolutionary character. They are

2. The Know Nothings.

Each of these organic atoms, from the develope-

evidently in the field as political party in

ARsoN.-The trial of Charles A. Peverelly, for
the crime Of arson, which has excited 80 much
interest from the previously respectable position
occupied by the prisoner, terminated yesterday
in his conviction, after a patient and impartial
investigation of his CASE This result is general.
~ regarded with satisfaction, from the frequen-
cy of the offence with which the prisoner was
charged, and which has latterly been fearfully
on the increase, owing to the ineffciency of IL e
measures that have hitherto been adopted to
arrest it. This has been in great degree at
tributable to the want OF concert which pre-
vailed between the insurance companies and
the authorities, or rather from the commercial
repugnance Of the former to endanger their re-
putation for promptness of payment in cases of
loss by fire, which rendered them naturally un-
willing to resist the claims made upon them,
even where reasonable suspicious existed of the
demands being fraudulent. The creation of the
office Of Fire Marshal by the authorities has
happily removed most of these difficulties, the
odium of resistance to doubtful claims being by
this measure taken from the shoulders of the
insurance companies, whilst the efficient aid
rendered by this officer to the magistrates
makes the task Of investigate and the convic-
ton of offenders matters Of less difficulty than
before. The conviction of Peverelly is the Sc
cond that has taken place since the appointment
of the Fire Marshal, and it has served to de-
monstrate the advantages that the public are
likely to derive from his labors. 1t will be seen
by the following extracts from the Revised
Statutes that the laws bearing upon this Of
fence are sufficiently stringent for the purpose
Of prevention, when certainty is impaired to
their operation =
Every person who shall attempt TO commit an offence
prohibited by law and in such attempt shall do any act
towards the commission OF such offence but shall fail In
the preparation thereof shall be prevented or inter-
copied IN executing the samc upon conviction thereof
shall in cases where no provision is made by law for the
punishment OF such attempt be punished as follows
II the offence so attempted DO punishable by inpr
sonment In state prison for four years more by
imprisonment in county jail, the person convicted OF
such attempt shall be punishable by imprisonment In
state prison or In county JAIL the may be, for
term not exceeding half the longest of impr
sonment prescribed upon conviction for the offence so
attempted-Revsed Statutes vol. p. SS1.
The punishment of the prisoner will be at
least term Of five years in the State prison.
A few more such examples amongst the incen-
diaries who, in seeking to accomplish their vile
ends, SO frequently sacrifice the lives and pro-
perry Of others, will greatly diminish, If It
cannot wholly put stop to the repetition Of
this offence We cannot conclude without
