 With this assertion the New York Evening Post of the 9th, begins a leading article, of which the object is to prove the complete as- cendancy of abolitionism throughout the North. The Post might have added another significant fact: The Know Nothings notwithstanding they would have us believe they were anxious for Stewards defeat, ron TO candidate against hsn
 As the Boston Post remarks, the election of freesoil agitators, pledged to an offensive war on the South, shows the character ot the prime movers of the new organization. They are those who mean to push fifteen States of thls Union to the wall on the slavery issue. It IS a mockery of the terms to call such party na- tional.-Montgomaery Advertiser.
 ''This triumph on the part of MT. Seward has been attained after severe struggle, which has ended in the return of most of the whigs, who had embarked in the Know Nothing move ment, to their allegiance to the regular organi- zation of the whig party, which is strongly at tached to that gentleman ."-Al5any Argus.
 "A majority of the whig Know Nothings agreed to vote for him. His enemies in the whig party had not the courage or capacity to defeat him. Every step they have taken for the last six months has been to help him. The Saratoga and Auburn conventions, the tempe rance movement, the ten millions canal debt, the election of Gov. Clark, the organization of the two houses and the formation of the Know Nothing party, have all been essential to MT. Stewards ucceSs."-Abony Ahds.

OBITUARY.

DIED-At his residence in this city, on the morning of the 7th inst, after an illness of six weeks, Judge WILLIAM 5. HUTT, aged eighty two years, one month and twenty -four days
 Judge Hut was no ordinary man. The re- mark has been often made in the hearing of the writer-"What an extraordinary man IS Judge Hut" And truly, so he was. At the advanc- ed age of eighty-two, he had all the buoyancy and elasticity of youth, with mind at all times fresh and vigorous He had his faults-and who has not? but they worked no ill to his neighbor He was fast friend, devoted hus- band, an affectionate father, kind neighbor and patriotic citizen. No man ever lived, or died in this city, who better filled up the mea- sure and aims of life, in all its relations, than did OM Father Hiat as he was familiarly cal- led by some of his friends.
 Judge Hut was born i'll Westmoreland coun- ty, Virginia, on the 11th January, 1773. In early manhood, he married the estimable lady, who now survives him; and shortly thereafter, emigrated to the territory of Ohio, and settled at Chillicothe. After his removal to Ohio, he was appointed postmaster to the Northwestern army; and was present, and took very active part in the defence of Fort Meigs. After the war, he returned to his native State, and settled at Kanawha c. H., where he held several inn portant State offices In 1S42, Judge Hutt emigrated with his family, three of his sons having preceded him-to this State, and fixed his residence in this city. Within a year or two after his arrival here he was elected a Justice of the Peace, and Associate Judge ofthe County Court which offices he held at the time of his death As an officer, he was firm, prompt and energetic. No man ever performed official du- ties with more honesty and firmness.
 But above all, and best of all, Judge Hut was christian-and died, declaring his conf-

Terrible COndagratiOn.


 Our city was visited last night by one of the most terrible fires that has occurred here for great Tenth of time It broke out about half past o'clock, in a new building erected by Jacob Morris on Clay and Levee street, and originated from stove-pipe running out to- wards the river, and not protected by tin, sheet iron, or anything of the kind Morris house was a large wooden building, and occupied as a cotfee-house. It was completely destroyed.- A blacksmith shop adjoining was also destroy ed.
 The fire communicated immediately to the old Oregon House, lately called Franklin Ex- change coffee house, the flames then spread to Rices coffee -house-called the Hippodrome- and in few minutes this was also in ruins- From Rice's the flames spread to Schawb's cotfeo-house and this shared the same fate A small dwelling between Rice and Schawbs was destroyed.
 Thus we find that four coffee houses in one vicinity, with nearly their entire contents, were destroyed.
 The fire was checked at the brick buildings on Levee street, a little north of the Prentiss House. It was terrible and fearful one, but the damage will not be reckoned very great we imagine, except by the immediate sufferers. It 1 however threatened, at one time, to wrap in flames the elegant block of new brick buildings on Mulberry street, and the Prentiss House was not considered entirely safc We indeed consider that nothing but the indomitable ener- gy of our firemen, and few real working citi- zens, prevented the fro from spreading to an alarming extent, and becoming one of the most destructive ones with which our city was ever visited
