The fire commenced in Charleston last night,
at o'clock, In Resell Cc.'s sash factory, at
the foot OF Hazel street, and communicated to
the opposite side Of Hazel, to Cameron C Co. s
machine sbops.
Under the impulse thus given aud a stiff
breeze with a small supply of water, the couhs-
grafton assumed a formidable character, nearly
cqualing the most extensive conhasration on
the Ame rican continent.
The theatre, Floyd's coach factory. opnoste
the Express office, the old Executive bull ling,
and all the houses between that point ami Queen
street, are burned. The whole of one sid 4, uf
residence to Mazyck street. A considerable
PARTON of the city, from East Bay to King At,
is destroyed. Among the prominent build lgs
burned are the Institute and St. Andrews Hall,
Theatre, Catholic cathedral and the Circular
church.

Baltimore, Sunday, Dec 15.-We learff nom
the Captain of the Norfolk boat, that hs was
informed by the Captain OF the steamer Illinois,
which had arrived at Old Point, from Port
ton harbor at o'clock on Thursday night, aud
that tremendous conAagrAtion was evidently
at its height in that city. The reflection on
the clouds exceeded anything he ever saw, and
the whole bay, with the dark outlines Of fort
Sumter, was brightly illuminated. 1t did not
appear like reflection from smouldering ruins,
but from a raging uncomfortable, conhagra-
ton.

THE NEWS.

Monday, the 21st Of October, will be noted in
the history of the present rebellion as an eventfu
day. While our brave troops were being slaugh
tered at Balls Bluff, in Virginia. the rebel General
Zollicofer, with six thousand Tennessee secession
lists at his back, made three separate attacks on
Camp Wildcat, in Kentucky, and each time was
driven back by General Garrard, with twelve hun
drsd Union men. On that day, also, two thousand
hve hundred Union troops, under command Of
Colonel Plummer, encountered body of rebels
estimated at Eve thousand, commanded by Generals
Thompson and Lowe, at Fredericktown Missouri,
and completely routed them. II may be source
OF gratifcation to know that, while the gallant
Colonel Baker was giving his life to his country at
Balls Bluff, the rebel General Lowe fell at the
battle Of Fredercktown.

THE ORLEANS PRINCES IN THE FEDERAL,
ARMY.-The discussions in the English journals
on the subject of the admission Of the Comte
de Paris and Due de Charities into the army Of
the United States, and the mysterious silence
which the French press preserves with regard
TO it, furnish equal evidence that both nations
are greatly concerned about the event They
think that in taking these royal exiles into our
military service we have some elective, or
rather dynastic, object in view-that, in other
words, we are looking forward to monarchy.
But our foreign friends need not be at all un-
easy about that. The President and people
will take care Of the government without as
sistance. We have admitted these two well
conducted young gentlemen into our army be-
cause we considered their desire for an active
life commendable; and, although they are the
grandsons of Louis Philippe, there is no dan
ger Of any reputation they may acquire in this
country endangering any dynasty of Europe,
50 long as it takes care of its own
people. In aifording them this opportu-

in cash., clothing and shoes. The winter is
upon them. What are they to do?
This naval expedition will settle the ques-
ton. 1t will open one or two Southern cotton
ports. and, upon the test Of allegiance to the
Union, the Southern cotton planter will be in
vted to bring forward his cotton and ship it to
England. Beginning within the lines of Occur
patton Of our Southern army, shipments of
cotton thus secured will soon spread whole
some Infection throughout the cotton States, to
the extent of decisive counter-revolution.
We know that the majority, and great MAORI
ty, of the substantial people Of the cotton
States were dragged headlong into this suicidal
rebellion. We are assured that they are anx-
iously awaiting the hour of their deliverance,
and we believe that they have had enough of
Yancey's Utopia of Southern confederacy to
rise against it with the very first encouraging
opportunity.
This opportunity will soon be made manifest,
and the consequences, we apprehcnd will con-
vince even Lord Palmerston Of the moral and
material power of the government of the
United States in this war for the Union. In a
word, from this great seaboard expedition,
from our still increasing armies in the border
slave States, from the desperate financial straits
Of the rebel treasury, from the terrible exac-
tons and sufferings which this rebellion has
brought upon our Southern people, from the
increasing signs of Southern Union reaction,
and from the approach of winter, with its Sc
we're necessities, there is every reason to hope
that this great Southern rebellion will be ut
terly subdued and forever extinguished by the
next 4th of March.
This will be glory enough for President Lin
coins administration; and very much of it will
be due to the wisdom which planned, the ener-
gy which equipped and the skill and courage
which will have achieved the great objects of
this naval expedition. We expect national
jubilee on the 4th of March.

that of the Duke Of York, who served in the
army OF Louis Philippe-where members Of
reigning or exiled houses have been allowed to
serve in foreign armies. 1t is much better for
these young men, whom courtesy still invests
with the title and rank Of princes, to be follow
ing some useful employment than to be vege-
tating in hopeless obscurity like the Stuarts, or
degcnerating like the elder branch Of the Bour-
bons, which can claim no more brilliant orna-
ment than Henry ", who is to be found idling
somewhere in Germany.
All royal exiles become private individuals
for the time being, and there is no reason why
either Louis Napoleon or any other sovereign
should be either offended or in fear at what We
have done in the case Of the Comte de Paris and
the Duo dc Charities.
