that several hundred persons assembled at the

already one or two engines. This was the

ga small party of men proceeded TO the
house of the old Hook ana Ladder Company.
North Second street, took out the Hooks and
Ladders, and carrying them to the above
named house, began to tear it down. During
their efforts at this, several attempts were
made by the police to arrest the ringleaders,
and three persons We're arrested. At about
ten o'clock, another alarm of fire was given,
and the building in the rear of No. IS How

was made to extinguish it by the crowd The
building on the street was next fired, and
both these tenements were burnt to the
ground. The fire also communicated to the

EMIGRATION TO KANzAs. ALI the accounts
from the West represent that emigrants from
the Northern States are flowing into Kanzas
in unprecedented numbers. On Tuesday last,
company of fifty started from Boston, and
were reinforced by others at Worcester and
Springfield. On Friday forty more went from
Albany. AS far North as Rochester, in Min
nesota, between Dubuque and st. Paul, we
hear that the new settlers were blowing the
land as early as the 18th of April Free State
settlers need no longer delay going to Kanzas

they will find it abundant mild and warm.

three years ago to " crush out the element of
aboliiionism." Who has been crushed out"
i'll New England: Perhaps the Senator can
ascertain by casting his eyes over that side of
the Chamber. Crush out the spirit of abo-
litionism % When you crush out the spirit
of Christianity you crush out the ideas
of Democracy. you may crush out that spirit
of liberty which lives and burns in the hearts
of the American people. That spirit, that
sentiment, has laid its grasp upon the con-
science of the people; it has entered into the
Government of the country; it holds every
political organization in America in the hol-
low of its hand; and Its triumph Is as sure as
that the throne of the Eternal stands.
Sir, the good cause daily increases in
strength. III this city, twenty years ago,
when we had not a public man here, when
we had not State Legislature, l committed
myself to the doctrines which now control
many sovereign States of the Union and l
indulge the hope that l shall live to see them
enthoned in the Government Of the country,
and to see men who have misrepresented and
denounced us confde in us as men who main
tain the true principles of the Constitution of
the United States, and the sovereign rights of
every member Of this Confedelacy
NATIONAL EXPENDITURES. The Washing
ton correspondent of the Boston Aflas writes
as follows respecting the present enormous ex-
pedtures of the General Government:
the probability now is that the appropri.
ations for the next year will be swelled to
eighty millions of dollars. Our annual ex-
penditure has already run up to seventy mil
lions, under the present profigate and extrav-
agant administration. The country, it is
thought, will bear ten millions more, and all
the Departments vie with each other in rec
ommending new expenses to get rid of money.
Where recommendations from the Depart
ments are considered hardly we,ghty enough
for the purpose, the President sends in spe-
cial messages. Unless we have change of
men in power, it is impossible to fix any
bounds to the national expenditures. For
merly, the South really believed that they
paid, under the protective system, dispro-
portionate share of the public revenue They
were. on that view Of the subject in favor of
ali economical administration of affairs, and
their influence was SO far salutsry. But they
have changed their opinions They have, in
fact, adopted the more correct opinion that
they contribute comparatively little of the
public revenue, and they favor, instead of OPP
posing, large national expenditures. 1t is
this change of opinion on the part of the
South, which has brought such a flood of ma
tional extravaganza upon us, the end of which
nobody can foresee.''

brace up and tone the system, They are grow
