The FIRE which occurred in Brookly on
FFidky last, proved the most destructive
which has occurred for many years, The
two buildings which were burned extend-
ed 300 feet along thedock and 200 feet back.
The buildings contained animmense guam
tity Of nitrate ofsoda or crude saltpetre,
and, as proved on this occasion, highly
explosive and dangerous article. Among
the other contents were sugar, melasses,
wool; hides and guano. aIii7syr.sq3 ,a15

The monster 2Q-inch army gun made at
the Fort Pitt Works has been finished for
some time, and has only been awaiting the
completion Of the big scales upon which to

of the new truck necessary for its transpor-
tstion. The scales. are now completed, and
Yesterday the truck arri7ed. The estimated

culation among the clergymen of New

of resomtiDnsadopted at a meeting of the
clerical and lay members Of the Diocesan
Convention of New Jersey, held immedi-
ately after the adjournment Of tho con-
uention in Newark, on the 26th Of May.
The resolutions set forth that ''Rhereas,
by recent enactments of;the government
of the United States, contrary to the usual
custom and laws of nations, the clergy are
liable to enrolment and draft for military
service, thus imposing in the alternative
Of substitute, burden of expense, that
from their self-denying position, they are

forcing them into service and position
inconsistent with their vowsi separating
them from their hallowed responsibilities,
and leaving the people to perish in iFrelig-
ion and vice." therefore the clergy Gre-
spectfuIly and earnestly petition the gov
ernent Of the United States to enact such
exceptions to the general laws respecting
enrolment and drafting as may leave the
clergy in these states secure in the admin

Wepubllsh this morning the regulations
for recruiting in tho rebel states and in
vite the attention of all our readers to its
provisions. We have urged both city &
country, to be ready for the time when
recruiting could be commenced. in rebel
districts. The regulations now published
are guarded carefully to prevent the
frauds which might otherwise attend re-
cruiting. We would suggest to the City
Council that they not only pass the bill
levying a tax upon property TO pay the
bounty Of s1OO which It is proposed to
give, but that they select, or suggest the
selection by the different Wards, of such
men as will promptly and faithfully raise
the quota Of this city.
Armed with a liberal bounty, but a
few weeks would elapse before the quota
of the city could be raised. -
As to raising a bounty Of 500, in ac-
cordanco with the provisions of the Bill
passed last winter by the State Legisla-
ture, we think there can be no hesitancy
in the mind Of any loyal patriotic cit
zen. A tax equalizes the burthen so that
they fall on the rich and the disloyal as
well as on the poor and loyal, .E..-.l
Let the bounty, therefore, be applied
immediately to recruiting in the rebel

How Taxes were Levied in England.


How Taxes were Levied in England.
If we wish to know how taxes were
levied in England when engaged IN its
wars against Napoleon, and also to draw
a favorable contrast as regards our own,
we may read with advantage the follow
ing interesting extract from Charles
Knights biography, just published in Lon
don: 1.-THE people at this time, even at
Windsor, grew gloomy and discontented
Public affairs were unprosperous; parties
ran high the taxes increased with the ex-
penses of the war, and the yearly addi-
tons of the interest Of the debt. 1t was
not only the actual amount Of taxation of
which the middle elases complained, but
of the oppressive mode of their assess
ment. The excisable trader had too long
been familiarized with thepresenee Of the
revenue officer to complain. He walked
into the talloW-ehandlers workshop with
out ceremony, put @ seal upon his dipping
vat, and locked up his moulds. He looked
over the grocers wares of tobacco. pep
per and tea at his good pleasure: and this
process, which he called taking stock, was
insulting and troublesome to the honest,
and no real check upon the fraudulent
sThe liquor merchant did not dare to
send out dozen of wine or a gallon of
spirits without permit. The income tax
was truly inquisitorial, for the local COM
missioners had no hesitation in ordering a
tradesman to procure his ledger and cash

of assessed taxes, the resident officer Of
revenue, called an inspector, Immediately ]
