FIRE.-lhe American Hotel in Con-
cord, y. H., and the lannon's building,
located directly north Of the hotel, were
burned on the morning of last Sunday
The hotel was three-storics, and the en-
tire loss Is estimated at S2j,O Con
cord, though an old city, is likely to be a
new one. 1t has been visited by many
destructive fires within few years, yet
through the energy Of the citizens, the
waste places have been rebuilt by new
and more elegant buildings, so that Con-
cord ranks with the first among inland
cities. h Is stated that this last fire was
the work of an incendiary.

STEAMSHIP "BALTIC," June %.

to touch with pilgrim shoOn, the places
made lllustrious by the achievements of
the past. And now the hope has promise
OF tuliillment. The good ship has found
a path which no yulture's eye hath seen,
over these bright summer seas. and at
length the white cliffs Of England rim
the far horison The steamship
which las so faithfully borne me. has
been a constant marvel. and before |
leave her cheerful saloons. | must make
record of the admiration and esteem she
has won from me. How ayes of thought
and experience center in this thing of
life. each maritime nation of history be-
inc represented here, and every genera
ton making its contribution for our COM
fort. First the log was followed out,
followed by the larger craft with its
three banks OF oars to which the sail
was added, creeping timidly along the
margin of unknown seas. Then the tea
kettle sang and water pressed up into the
vacuum formed by condensed steam.
Then the slumbering forces of nature
awake rpbbing the sail of her glory. In
the fitness of time Fulton gave the
paddle of the weary OarSman to this
mighty Titan with breath of fire and
nerves of steel. whose pulse beats on day
and nj ght. with no sense of fatigue and
the majestic steamship stood forth real
lzed fact, smoking the pipe OF peace among
the nations. and i'll her shuttlings between
the continents carrying the wool of the

souls to man her. She carries a burden
OF 2GGi tons, and in her last trip brought

The ,Sunitcirh Islands.

Every well informed person has I'M
derstood that England and France have
for some years been aiming to acquire
authority and fast hold in the Pacific.
especially in the Sandwich Islands. Our
government has been watchtul of these
efforts, and at last Secretary Seward has
succeeded in establishing treaty relations
between these islands ard the United
States. which must be of great advan-
tagc to Us, and equally adverse to the
designs OF all European powers. y re-
ciprocitv treaty has been negotiated be
tween the L. :. and the Sandwich Islands.
containing. it is said, provisions conced
ING peculiar advantages to our CONNER
cial interests.
These islands are located over two
thousand miles from our western coast,
but 50 tavorably that our whaling fleets
readily touch at the harbors OF the
islands. and make Of them Ravens, III
distress. or for rcplenislin@ their stores.
The various productions Of the islands
will more readily find market in the
United States in exchange for our pro-
duclion, adding, doubtless, to the volume
Of our commerce.
1t Is suggested, but probably without
substantial reasons, that Mr.. Seward
aims at the annexation of the islands to
the United States. He is known to ia
vor IN indefinite extension OF our ma
tional jurisdiction, and prldes himself
upon his success i'll acquiring the Rus
sian possessions upon our continent He
has yet TO popularlze his schemes ere he
will be able to carry them much farther.
Our people feel that we are now broad
enough, territorialIy; yet the day is,
doubtless, approaching, when the ques-
ton of absorbing Mexico will arise for
serious consideration, and many genera
tions will not pass before il will be done
There i such an unboundcl ambition ON
the part Of our merchants, and they are
potent in the land, to extend our COM
merce, that when the favorable moment
comes. Mexico will find a place upon the
map OF the United States.

NED NEvINs THE NEWS BoY.-We have
received from the Publishers, Messrs. Lee &
Shepard copy of Ned Ncvin,, or Street Life
in Boston, by Rev. Henry Morgan, the "Poor
Mans Prelcher.
We have watched with more han ordinary
interest this class Of the city population; and
one cannot we'll help it, for nowhere else can
such smartness be found in the Little Folks. y
In England they are called the " dangerous
classes" and in this country they are consld-
cred the "poor and vicious, but as class they
are the most active, the brightest anu the
sprightliest Of all the classes Of young folks in
America. We recollect ono of their tricks,
practiced few times in San Francisco some
dozen years since, which illustrates their smart
ness, and perhaps their standard of morality at
that time. On the arrival Of the steamer with
the mails, some Of the boys who had an old
stock of "Jernils " on hand that could not be
turned to money account would rush into the
crowd with them and sell them for quarter
cash just Us il they were some of the fresh ones
with the latest news. We have no doabt some
Of these enjoyed the joke, silly. while some
one who had been sold, would scold at the
cheat.
But this work is written by one who thinks
highly Of the News Boys as a class, and it is
said that his "boys seem to be taken out of the
street and put bodily into his book. 1t is
spoken highly of by the Boston dailies, and is
selling rapidly. Mrs. Kingsley is Agent for

LET WELL ESotGtt ALoNE-We know
the President must be sorely tempted to
Use whatever power he may possess to op-
pose IL measure which he a>saileu so vin-
dctively last Winter. That is well under
stood. The country appreciates the fidel-
tiy with which he performs his most unwel-
come work Bat he must ptrJorm it. Ills
administration will not be permitted to in
tertere with reconstruction by removing the
generals who have the confidence of the
country. and appointing men in whom il
has no confidence. Let the President but
attempt this-let him oppose his executive
prerogative to the operations OF the Militia
ry bill, an d in day this era of good feel
ing will become Il season OF rage and hate
this little cloud will cover tive heavens
with blackness. The country is intense
ly earnest on this subject. Let sheridan or
SickleS, for instance, be removed. and 4
Summer session OF Congress will be incvi-
table. With Summer sessionthe Presi-
dents functions will most ass,lredly be SO
limited that it will not be in his over ev-
er after TO remove any General Commands
inc. All the bitterness that prevailed last
year will be renewed, Il hundred questions
will suffer, and the Iork OF national pact-
fication be stopped merely that the presi-
dent and Congress may have another con-
troverSy. Such II controversy can have
but one result-for the people can feel with
Congress. and Will sustain it. The danger
is that the wise aad temperate measure OF
last session, under which the country Is
doing so we'll. will be succeeded by meas.
