FIRE IN ST. MARTINsvILLE--G Great Loss Of Life
and PropGty.--We find in the franklin Banner of
Thursday last, the following account Of 4 terrible
calamity in st. Martinsyille:
On Sunday evening last fire broke out in St. Mar
tinsville, which not only laid waste the principal
portion of the town. but attended by fearful loss
Of life. The circumstances so far as We have learned
them are these: The fire originated ina stable in the
rear of Mr.. Fontanettcs store, to which the flames
quickly reached, and spreading themselves in their
destructive progress, in short time the entire square
was a mass of flames. This square embraced the
principal business houses of the town. some of them
fine brick buildings containing quantity of valuable
merchandise. In one of these stores were forty kegs
of gunpowder, which exploded with a tremendous re-
port, blew down the walls, carried i'll the roof and
buried in the ruins thirteen persons who We're in the
store at the time endeayoring to save what they could
from the confagratlon All these persons are said to
have been instantly killed Wehave not been able to
learn the names Of the sufferers. The gentleman who
furnishes the information was an eyewitness to this
awful scene and estimates the probable loss Of prop
erty to be about 100000. We cannot learn that any
of this loss was covered by insurance.
Since the above was written we learn from another
source that tWenty-thrce persons arc missed since
the explosion occurred and the supposition is that
they are among the victims. A gentleman who az
rived here last night by the mail boat states that when
he left st. Martinsyille seventeen bodies had been
found among the ruins, and that dgent search was
then being made for Others who are supposed to be
there.

KANSAS AFFArRs.-The Leayenworth Herald Of

KANSAS AFFAIRs.-The LeaYenWorth Herald Of
the 9th says:
A pro-slavery meeting was held there on tile ID
inst, at which it determined to offset the inu-
encc of the free State agents sent abroad by despatch
ing George W. Mclean to the Southern States to give
the people the proslavery aspect of the case and to
urge emgrants to emgrate to the Territory, and aid
in rescung the control of affairs from the hands Of
the abotionists of Lawrence Robinson, Lane, Brown,
etc.-who are doing everything possible to bring on
a civil war. They apprehend That many free State
men will refuse to follow them into rebellion against
the federal authority and the laws of the Territory.
The Herald Of Freedom says that Messrs. Robinson
and Lane have adopted precautionary measures and
organized regiment that the forts are guarded day
and night, and that munitions of war were being col
ected in readiness for instant service nattac being
expected.
The Topeka Herald appeals to the friends of the
North and East to hold themselves in readiness to
march at moments notice. 1t says that the strug
gle begins to show itself in earnest, and nvokes the
people Of Kansas to die i'll preference to surrender
ing.
