FIRE AND ROBBERY. Several attempts
have recently been made by some miserable
tiend to fire our beautiful village, and evi-
IDENTIFY as the sequel will show, for the pur-
pose of thieving On last Saturday evening
for the second time, the stable belonging to
Mr.. Wait, which was filed with hay. and sit
uated back of the store, was discovered to be
on fire. Leaving his little son in the store.
he fastened to the fire, but returning few
minutes after, he found that a purse contain
ing near $3.50 had been extracted from the
drawer, revealing at once the object of the
fire. The fire, though dangerous one, was
finally put out, through the industry of
number of our citizens.
Such proceedings are becoming so common
and are of so frequent occurrence, that we
think some measures should be speedily adop-
ted for putting a stop to them, and for the
detection and punishment of the rascals. The
whole of the above, was evidently consider
ate and unfortunately successful plan of
rascality.

TERRIFIC CONFLAGRATIONs-Th last ar
rival from the States, brings accounts of nu-
merous destructive fires among which we ewill
mention the burning of the Steamboat Geor-
gia, at the Lake terminus of the Carrolton
and Ponchartrain Railroad. Another occur
red at the Levee, New Orleans. The Delta
describes this as one of the most destructive
that ever occurred at the place. The fire ORR
ginated in the Steamboat Charles Belcher-
it quickly communicated from this to others,
and caused destruction of property amount
ing to something like million of dollars.
The lives of several white persons were lost,
and with them 80 negroes, men women and
children.
The New Orleans Delta says, that ''one of
the passengers of the Belcher who said that
his mother and sister were destroyed, became
frantic, and after the steamer sank he rushed
on board of one of the other burning boats
and was about to leap into the flames when
he was by force prevented. He then drew a
knife and stabbed himself in the region of the
heart, declaring that he had nothing further
to live for. The wound, it is expected, will
proVef fatal. The poor man, bleeding profuse-
ly was borne away in a cab to the Charity
Hospital, there to recover or die.

STATE CouPoNs. Considerable excitement
prevails all over the State in consequence of
the failure of Palmer, Cook & Co., to pay the
California Coupons, due in New York on the
1st of January, 1854 It appears that the
Book-keeper of Palmer, Cook & Co, has sworn
to statement that the American Exchange
Bank should have had on hand on the first of
January 1854, a sum more than sufficient to
meet the interests due in New York on that
day. But the President ofthe American Fix
change has also made statement publicly
thatthere were nofunds belonging to Palmer
Cook & Co. in the Bank at that time. and 9th
er evidences in relation to this, proves the
statement to be correct. In public opinion
the delinquency would therefore rest upon the
firm of Palmer, Cook & Co., and as they have
apparently done nothing to clear up the mys-
terry that hangs upon their proceedings we
think that the interest of the State demands
an investigation of their actions by the pro-
per authorities. as certainly the interests of
thousands are of greater Importance than the
private and suspicious reputation of Bank
ing establishment
We are pleased to see the. agitation of its
lmportancerin all our principal papers of the
City and State. Wherever there is rascality.
let it be brought to light.

quite large expense in the fitting up and
adorning of his present rooms, and from the
advantages which he now has in taking Da-

thing out of it, it will not be the fault of the
operator. Persons fond of such things.

DEBATING SocIETY.-We had the pleasure
OF listening to very interesting debate on
the "Pacific Railroad Question" on last Mon
day evening. The debate was highly inter-
esting and some OF the speeches were able and
instructive. Several Ladies were in attend
ance and judging from their looks they were
well pleased with the proceedings of the eve
ming.
On next Monday evening the question of
"Ladies Legal Rights" is to be discussed.
The debate will doubtless be an interesting
one, and it is hoped that large number of
ladies will be present on the occasion.
