The Salem (Mass.) Register Publishes letter
written BY George c. Gray, Of that city, who
has been doing business at Valparaiso for about
year, giving an account of the great Ere there
by which he was burned out. The fire broke
cut about 81 o'clock. A. ~, in the cook house
of the Englieh Club Room, and from the nature
Of the building burned very slowly, 20 that it
might easily have been confined to that locality
had the 6remen Understood and one their du-
~. As soon as the adjoining buildings, which
we're of wood, took fire, the fremen gave up all
hope Of saving any thing, and stopped working
the engines, and the flames had unobstructed
progress, famed by . strong northwest wind,
and checked only BY the rain storm which pre-
vailed.
The buildings destroyed contained splendid
stores, as fine ss any in Boston or New York,
hled with elegant goods. The factory Of Will
lisms l. Co., Of New York, with the great stock
OF lumber in it's yard. made q terrific blaze
One attempt was made TO stop the career of
the dreadful element by blowing up house
with gunpowder, but the operation was delayed
too long to be of any aervice. The eonhagra
tion had its own way, and the people trusted in
Providence to stop it. The scene at o'clock
in the afternoon was . frightful one. Three or
four lumber yards, with hundreds Of thousands
Of dollars worth oflumbsr and twenty or thirty
large builduge, were all burning at once; the
rain vas pouring down; the sea was running
very high, and the waves were breaking on the
beach and throwing the spray upon the Ore,
| which burned till o'clock ia the evening,
when the wind shifted. and il rained 90 violent
y that the fire gradually died out.
The loss, which is immense. falls chiefly on
the foreigners, quite . number of whom are
Americans. Il is estimated at four or Eve mil.
lions of dollars, the greater part of which ID
insured. Messrs. Williams L Co. are fully in.
sured This Ere will make business good II
Valparaiso fer some time to come, and carpes-
ser's wages will be high. The Cbilanoss were
nightly pleased to see the factory burn, and
expressed their joy BY sbouting "viva Chill, y
clapping sheir hands, &s. Quite . number Of
lives were lost By the fire, and great many
persons badly injured.

tains some remarkable passages. We extract
one or two Of then, - fellows:
Bus they are oaly part of many contempor-
ansous circumstances, which reveal TO the coun-
Try an important fact. They warn it of wide
spread and desperate conspiracy in the South
ern States against the authority Of the laws.
Constitution, and Government, the continuance
OF the Union, and the integrity of all existing
institutions, not only in the Southern States, but
in every quarter that can be reached from the
Southern States. We see evidences of this
movement in the Efforts to revive the African
Slave trade against the wish aud conviction Of
nine senths Of the Southern people.
Il seems to US that none can contemplate the
msvemsnts and Vaccinations Of this class of
men at the South without eoncera and rsproba.

when it behooves the Southern States to frown
down Q movement which strikes 1t the root of
every principle and every interest which the
South can hold dear.

Union is the recognized organ, 10 directly re-
sponsibls for this state of things at the South;
