fire broke out in the rear of the coffee-house Of
Peter McManus, No. II New Levee street, one Of
q row Of three one-story buildings, at the corner
of GraTier. The fire department was so promptly
on the spot and at work that in few minutes the
flames were under control, and by half.past II all
danger of the fire spreading had ceased. None of
the buildings were entirely destroyed, but McMa-
nus's house was gutted, and Eds coffee-house
adjoining and the Kentucky coRee-house, on the

Financial.

The Commercials money article SAYS:
Money continues very abundant and the
loan market dull. Call loans are readily
negotiated at per cent, with exceptions at
3 per cent. Discounts are quiet at 5@7 per
cent. The chief effect of the foreign news
has been to confirm the advance in 5-20's
made during last week. Old 5-2O's are de-
cidedly firm at 1O416 @10422S, although fair
amount is offering, TO be exchanged for the
second and third issues, at prevailing lower
prices for the latter bonds.
Gold continues firm under a scarcity for
delivery caused by speculation.
The stock market shows rather more
strength, but is on the whole quiet. Erie,
however, remains very active, with signs of
a movement for an advance. Between seven
and eight thousand shares were bought by
one firm at the regular Board, the price ad-
vancing to 631a. Michigan Southern rose

DetermIued TO RuIe or Ruin.

The Daily Union, vigorous but conser-
vative Republican journal, has this to say
about the Radicals of its party:
The signs are that the leading men of the
Radical party are determined to rule or to
ruin-to nominate all who voted for negro
suffrage in the District of Columbia, and
for the joint resolution to amend the Con-
stitution, by packing the conventions, and
threatening to defeat any conservative man
that may be nominated. In the Columbus
| District, Mr.. Shellabarger is to be put on
the track without even the formality of a
convention, and in the Cleveland District,
| Thaddeus Stevens has addressed letter to
the Radical paper, so indOrsiDg the course
of Judge Spalding in Congress, as to al
most order the people to elect him for a
| third term. Andin every district through
out the State, the fiat from Washington
has gone forth, that all the present delega-
tion must be renOminated. If this be done,
then will madness rule the hour, for it will
require the entire vote of every conserva-
tive, as well as Radical, to prevent loss of
several members. Several of the Republi-
can members of Congress represent dis
tricts too near equally balanced to be
trihed with. To save these, Candidates
must be nominated who, while they are
firm in their Union principles, are not so
connected with extreme Radicalism, or ex-
treme conservatism as to lose votes, but on
the contrary, to gain them.
We do not believe that Republicans can
be got to vote for men that they believe to
be disunionists, but when they see men in
the field as candidates for Congress who re-
fuse to admit loyal men In the South to
their rights in the Union and under the
Constitution, and who, by voice and vote,
declare that the Southern States are out of
the Union, thus making secession an ac-
complished fact, we do believe that but
partial vote will be polled, and that the
great falling off will be from the Republi-
can side.
1t is but q waste of time, we fear, to thus
talk reason to men who seem to have no
reason in them, yet we do warn them that
II they hope for success in the coming cam
paign, they must not carry their radicalism
to the verge of madness, nor overstep its
bounds as many of them are disposed to
do, but they must aid in nominating the
best men for Congress, by which term we
mean those whose wisdom and moderation
have endeared them to the people, and in
whose hands the destiny of the country, in
this the hour of her great need, can be
safely entrusted. II this be done, then all
Is well. If not, then the fault be upon the
heads Of those who deserve it.
