Information was brought to the Second District station house. yesterday morning, that the wife of a man named Bernard Hogan, residing on the corner of Charles and Tellman etreets, was lying dead in bed, her appearance indicating that she had been violently beaten. Officer Jo- sephus Buck immediately proceeded to the house, and found the woman tn the back basement. her face all covered with bruises, and marks of blood about the floor, and the walls and eeiling all bespattered. He took a view of the premises and went to notify Coroner Ball.

At balf-past twelve O'clock, yesterday afternoon, & fire broke out in the warehouse of this company, situated in Momtgomery street. The fire originated in the cellar of the warehouse, where raw sugars are stored pre vious to refining, and spread to the first floor, where a _ at f the who gave the alarm, and all the hose, (with which the building is ntifully supplied.) was brought to bear on the fire, which was put out in about half an hour. The # on the second and third floors were alse badly da: by water. Nothing but the complete internal a: mnt of their hose, used in putting the fire out, saved the entire building from destruction. ‘The da: which is principally by water, will amount to about $18,000. ‘The company are fully insured in different offices in this city aud in Europe. Asno lights or fire is ever allowed in the warehouse, the fire, most probably, is the work of an incendiary. "The front door on Montgomery street was left open while the men were at dinner, and it is supposed by the proprietors that the incendiary inust have thrown's. lighted mated into the building through this door. It will be remem dered that this establishment was almost wholly destroyed by fire about two years ago, and since that time the atest precautions have been taken by the proprietors, order not to have a repetition of such an event. The workmen are obliged to change their clothes when they come there in the morning, for a suit which belongs to the establishment, so by this means none of the men can bring any pipes or matches into the building. During the entire day men were cmployed bailing the water out of the cellar.” If the iron shutters on the cellar floor had been open it would Lave greatly facilitated theire‘forts to extinguish the flames, and the fire would have been got under with very trifling damage. As the warehouse which took fire is separate from the rest of the establishment, the business of the company will not be suspended ene moment. THE VETERAN Corrs ov 1812. Anumerous meeting of the above corps was held last evening at the American Hall. Jaisea B. Murray was chosen President on the oecasion. A series of resolutions were offered by Colonel Haight, stating that they had watched with great interest the proceedings of the Senat® in regard to an extension of the Bounty Land Act, passed Sepiember 28, 1850, so to augment the quantity of land ided by the operations of that act,as to ensure 160 acres d being duly im- pressed with the propriety and justnoss of the measure, they respectfully urged its speedy action. ‘That ia view of the serviceswhick they bad rendered their country during the war of 1812, they were not unmindful of the hazards they had run or the claims due to them; and sf- ters lapse of 40 years they have become old and infirm, cepending for support on'the charity of others. They therefore earnestly invoke the aid of Congress in their be- half, by extending the acts of March 18, 1818, and the 1st of May, 1820, for revolutionary services, so as in like man- ner to embrace those of the war of 1812. They also re- quest that the several Senators of this State use their best endeavors to promote this object. They also returned thanks to Senator Brodhead, of Pemusylvania, who in- troduced the bill they wanted now to be passed daring this seasion of Congress. A collectiim was then taken up to defray the expenses | of the meeting, which was paid over to the finance com- mittee of the corps. On an amendment, offered by John C. Hoyt, those sailorsgwho served in the last war were included in the series of resolutions. Dr. Van Pert, one of the veterans, then addressed the meeting. He said that it gave him great pleasure to be- hold faces that evening which he had seen forty years ago. He need not remind them of the alacrity with which they tonred out in the service of their country, at the call of that honorea and distinguished man, Daniel D. Tompkins. He was the friend of the poor man and the soldier, and was indeed a true patriot. Their object was most certainly a most laudable one. When Geueral Ia- fayette landed here, after the war was over, he was deputed to receive him, by command of Gov. Tompkins, and when he wasasked what would become of the Ameri- ean navy on the sea, he said that, although it was not able to Cope with the English, yet when they met them single-handed they always sunk them. He also said that the stars and stripes would yet ride in triumph over the sea. So what he said then has now come to pass. Mr. Waist next addressed them. He said that ho was about twelve years of age when the last war broke out be- tween this country and England. The people, he said, were frightened when they heard of the declaration of’ war, for they thought that England, who was then mistress of the seas, would overwhelm’ their little navy. They had no fear of danger by land, but on sea they were afraid of the strength of Great Britain. But the Ameri- cans came out victorious. They did not forget the bat- tles of Lundy's Lane, Chippewa, Plattsburg, and New Or. leans, where many of those present fought, and where thousands of the American le were slain. There ‘was no need to mention the scenes of the war of 1812—the prosperity of the United States shows what service the veterans, for the lore of freedom alone, ren this country. They, the plain citizens, conquered those whose trade was war. The Ameri- cans fought for their country alone—but England 4 France fought for glory, and riches, and terri- The appearance of the veterans at the present time did not look much as if theyfought for sordid means. They were, he was ashamed to ear mre like mendicants than anything else. He hoped 4 the say- ing that “republics are ungrateful,” would not prove true inregard to their case. The government of this country ought to bestow gifts on men who were the only remnant of those who fought for their country. They should give them thet which was befitting a lorious republic. They had squandered money away dn foreigners, which, if spent at home among those ‘who. were in more need of it, would be more righteous and patriotic. He then referred to the New York Volunteers, | whom he said were entitled to a recompense ax well as any of the other corps. They deserved a reward for their bravery, and should receive it. If liberty is no more than @ name, and it Congress is not a mere inconsistency, the veterans would receive their reward. He then alluded to Kossuth, whom he said he did not like, and the reason was, because he found fault with this country when he was receiving its hospitality. Why should he and his suite have been so well fed, while the veterans who loved and bled for their country were nearly starving ? A petition, requesting Congrese to amend the bounty law waa ithen signed by a great number of the veterans, after, which the meeting adjourned. Tw Weatuen.—Yesterday the weather was very fine, excepting that it was rather cold during the morning and evening It froze very hard on Sunday night, so much 60 all the ponds in this and the neighboring cities are again covered with a thick coatof ice. The sidewalks were very slippery, and many persons yesterday no doubt came in rather too close contact with the ground. At seven o’clock last evening the thermometer at the Hexatp office stood at 30 degrees above Zero. Up to a late hour last night it was very clear, and still continued cold. St. Vatexmins's Day.—The number of valentines deli vered by the letter carriers has not diminished in the least this year from that of former ones, The prices pald for them varies froma cent to fifty, and. in rome cases, even a hundred dollars are paid for valentines. These costly ones have generally some valuable trinket enclosed in them, and it is not an unusual thing for a young lady to receive a gold watch for a valentine. We are certain the letter carriers maile more calle yesterday, and with more profit, than they had done for weeks previous. There was but one thing to mar the pleasuse of the day, that was tho vending of those atrocious and disgraceful valen- tines which we oftem see exhibited In the windows of the stationery stcres. No doubt the day was a source of great enjoyment to all those young people who received and sent tales of their love to cach other. Police Intelligence.
