with 1t, how grand, how sublime the
response of loyalty and patriotism to
the call OF humanitys rescue-to the
preservation Of law and constitutional

the recent uprising in our own glorious

upper part OF the town, and upon search

fire was in progress in the house on
Green street adjoining the premi ses OF
II. R. Dyer, and occupied by family
named Hennessy. The flames were dis
covered in closet, which contained a
straw mattrass, and being s considerable
distance from any stove or chimney fue,
and as the family were absent from the

to have been near the room in question
