Asfar as We have been able to lCarn
the very best men in all parts of the
State have been nominated as candidates
to the Constitutional Convention and
State Legislature. The people have
determined that tho framing Of our or.

This is an earnest ofthe capability Of

TIE GREAT FIRE.

Since our last issue, one Of the
greatest cities of the Union has been
literally burned to the ground. Gil
cago, the pride and boast of tho west,
has indeed passed through fcry or.
deal. Originating from lamp cxplO.
sion, the flames spread until four miles
in length and Ons.aud. half miles in
width Of the doomed city, were wrap.
ped IN their consuming embrace. =
For several days no check could be
put upon the devouring element, md
at one time it seemed that the entire
city would be destroyed.
Not bank. insurance, express,
newspaper or telegraph office i, left
the business portion Of the city is gone.
The loss is now estimated at Three
Hundred Millions of Dollars, and it
is supposed that over Five Hundred
people we're burned to death.
All ngreo that this fire was Of far
greater magnitude than any that has
ever occurred upon this or any other
continent.
Various cities and individuals have
subscribed in all several millions Of
dollars for the relief Of the sufferers,
aud the Government is using all the
army supple, in the west for their
support. The railroads are carrying
everything to them free of charge.
We notice with pleasure that the
city of Wheeling subscribed s., 200 to
the relief fund; aud that our friend
George Il. Jingle, Esq, added to
that donation Of fifty barrels OflOur.
All over tue country subs, riptions are
pouring in to aid the thousands Of un.
f0riunates tins thrown upon the cold
charity Of the world.

COREA.

Corea, the scene ofthe recent naval
exploit under Commodore Rodgers, is
a country of Northeastern Asia. It's
area is 10000 square miles, more or
less; in fact, its limits are SO uncer-
tain that anylarge figure may be men
toned. Its population, we are told,
is 10000 900, or perhaps II, 900, 900.
1t is called by the natives ''Tsyosien.''
The Chinese, to whom it is tributary,
call it "KaO-lee," and the Japanese
"Korai," whence its tributary name.
1t is Bn extensive peninsula, bounded
by the Yellow Sea, the straits ofCorea,
and the Sea of Japan. In addition to
the continental territory, there is q
large archipelago of Islands, about
which much is not known. In the
west and south, the soil is fertile, but
in the north and on the coast, the
agricultural wealth of the people is
not great. The climate is very cold,
and in summer,too abundant rain falls
Its most valuable exports are the med.
icinal root ginseng and Corea, tiger
skins. which are far more beautiful
than those of Bengal. The minerals
include gold, silver, rocksalt, copper,
and coal. The musk of COrea is
WOrld-famous. Their manufactures
are, for a barbarous people, of consid'
cradle excellence. Their sabres are
known throughout all Eastern Asia,
and their matchlocks r superior to
anything the Chinese a produce,
Their textile fabrics of silk, hemp,
and grass are substantially woven.

A TROUBLESOME REGULATION
By reports to the Treasury Depart
ment it appears that a law passed
through Congress by Senator Chand-
Ter is giving the collectors of all lake
ports a great deal of trouble. One of
its features isthat any vessel touching
at intermediate port between the ports
of clearing and destination should not
report at the custom house, the mas
ter should be fined $50. A case is
pending where a vessel cleared at
Racine, Wisconsin, for Buffalo, stop
ped at Chicago without reporting to
the collector, and-he subsequently ex-
acted fines amounting to S120 for this
dereliction of duty. An appeal was
made to the Secretary of the Treasury
for refunding the amount, and the
collector was ordered to return the
money, as Chicago was certainly not
an intermediate port. The depart
ment has vRinly endeavOred to fix
some rule by which collectors at lake
ports, who N constantly making
blunders under the act referred to,
may be guided in the transaction OF
business, andnow announces that ev-
cry case will have to be acted upon
severally hereafter.

FeIgned Insanity of the Gargett MUIR
derer.
About the time of the opening Of Court,
Wednesday morning, and as Hunter
was being conducted from the Jail to the
courtroom, he began to make the most
violent demonstrations, cursing, swear
ing, and using the most abusive Ian
guage. These demonstrations increased
as he drew near the door of the court
room, and by the time he had reached
the bar, were violent in the extreme.
His rawlings were somewhat incoherent,
but the burded of them was that they
were all on him ; that they were all OF
the same stripe /; that he cursed them all
&c. The ordinations were interpreted
with oaths of the most hOrrid character,
which he shouted at the top of his voice.
When finally he reached his seat, and
was told by the sheriff to sit down, he
vehemently refused, and began to strug-
gle in the most violent manner He
was Immediately seized by the sheriff
and his deputies, and fairly forced into
his chair. Even then he continued to
rage, but a word from the court and the
sight OF handouts o quieted him,
though he frequently thereafter brought
his hand down very emphatically upon
his knee, and appeared otherwise ex-
cited.
