with interest, on the years when the Presidential

overthrow the liquor law, distracted thousands of
votes from the Republican nominees, and gave
them to those of the Democratic party, the Re.

the express disclaimer Of making the election a

at their Convention, expressing no opinion on the
yepeal Of tie Missouri Compromise In addition
to these, 10000 votes were given for the Wing
candidate, who openly stood on strong anti-slaye-

this year, to the Republican candidates. Since

To the citizens-Don't forget the sick in your
demonstrations at the coming anniversary of our
Independence, but bear in mind that the Physi-
clans in Boston have petitioned the city aulhori-
ties of that city, to suppress all noise arising from
fire works or arms of any description, on the
night previous to the fourth for the welfare
of the sick. May such generous feeling of
sympathy as that evinced in Boston, appeal to
all the citizens OF our city, and awaken in us
special regard for the comfort of those who are
confined to beds of pain, by not intruding our
noise upon them from the going down of the
sun, to its uprising. We pray you, give to the

GREAT FIRE IN NASHUA, n. 1.-The Nashua
company's Mills took fire, yesterday noon, in
the eastern portion, Immediately after bell time,
and in less than ten minutes three hundred feet of
the building was one burning mass. The fire
spread with great rapidity, the wind blowing vio-
lently, and several houses adjacent were also con-
sumed. Many other buildings adjoining were
saved only by great exertion.
One of the operatives in the Mills persisted, in
the attempt to save herself, by getting out of the
window on TO the roof. She was precipitated to
the ground, some sixty feet. Others are supposed
to have persisted. The total loss is estimated at
between $500, 900 and 100000.
