THE WEEKLY ARGUS.
REDUCTION IN PRICE.

| There never was a time in the history OF our
country when greater necessity existed for cir
cuating pure Democratic documents. Radical
| legislation has made grave yard and desert Of
| half of our country; our liberties have been in
frnged upon to an alarming extent; overvhelm-
ed with debt, and staggering upasr Its load OF
corruption and imbecility, our government is
the scott and by-wofd offoreign nations; diFpis.
Ell at home and derided abroad, it is ovcrhang
ing the very brink of destruction; the departure
of our people from the glorious precepts Of the
past, has led them into a labyrinth Of anarchy
from which many see no escape but in military
despotism. The New York ImperioHst, founded
and supported by the bond -holding aristocracy,
is laundering for the establishment of an Empire
its efforts receive the countenance Of high gov
eminent officials, and the appreciation Of the
manufacturing nabobs ofthe East we ore rapid
ly drifting upon breakers which must soon test
the stability of the ship Of State. There is no
hope for the future, save in rousing tho people
to their duties as citizens and TO Il realization OF
the peril in which their liberties arc placed.
There is but one way to redeem the country from
the demagogues and plunderers who are fast urg-
ing it to ruin. The masses must return to the
principles of the fathers Of the Republic, drive
from places of trust the spoilers fattcning upon
tho life blood of the nation, and place in power
only those who will administer our affairs with
prudence and economy. There must be a
change in the government within the next four
years. The people must choose between Democ-
raey and Imperialism The struggle has already
commenced. The Democratic party will be
found, as in the past battling against monarch
cal ideas, and for the supremacy Of the people
Circulate the documents.
With this object in view, we have determined
to reduce the price of the WEEKLY ARGUS, and
hope, thereby, to place it in the hands of every
Democrat in the county, and within the reach
of every political opponent who may desire to
investigate facts and listen to the truth while yet
there is time. On and after the LIST of July, the
price Of the WEEKLY AaGrs will be as follows:

Between six and seven o'clock last night an
incendiary fred the extensive three-story
frame grist mill of McKeon Bingham, in
close proximity to the Delaware, at the foot
of Penn street, Camden, New Jersey, and
although every effort was made TO stay the
flames, the building was quickly consumed.
The saw mill adjoining a one-story frame,
next ignited, and was also destroyed. Then
the flames made their way among the piles of
lumber in the yard Immediately adjoining,
and before they we're checked large guam
tity of flooring and other sawed woods was
burned
The grist mill was an old structure, and was
formerly used as a hat factory. 1t contained
about $1,000 worth of grain, which was con-
sumed. The machinery in both mills was
rendered worthless by the heat The firm
estimate their entire loss on the mills and
lumber between $50, 900 and $50, 900, and
their insurance at $25, 900, divided among the
Girard and Home of this city and the Royal
of Liverpool.
The fire was first discovered in the southern
end of the first floor of the grist mill near
the engine-room, and it is said that but few
minutes before this couple of men were
noticed leaving the building, and it is sup
posed that one of them kudled the fire.
The fire made great light, and continued
to burn vigorously until long after dark
Several Philadelphia fire companies crossed
the river and rendered efficient service.

LONDON, June Ga meeting of conserya-

course should be pursued in regard to the bill
for the disestablishment of the Irish Church.
Lord Cairns urged that opposition be made

party did not wish to dictate, and were anxious
that the judgment OF each peer should remain
nnfettered. He felt that as the country had
never pronounced on the present bill, and as
the feeling of the House of Lords was so OPP
nosed 10 Il, the most polite, consistent, and
