Dectrective Fire at New Oxleans—Loss The 000,00, 4s Picasuce, August 6.) justerday by one of the most hes ever occurred here, [t [From the New Oar cry was visi'e destru tive fires the broke out about 11 o'clock, in the house No. 91 | Tchoupitonlus sireet, the lower stories of which were occupied by W. 8, Wright & Co., and the two upper stories by KE.

Hirt & Co.'s men wore seal- ing bottles, and tyst thy fire in some way communi cated to the hquor they were botting. At any rate, the firet intimation Wrivbt & Co. had of the fire wus the flam:3s pou ing dvwn the hatch: way. They bael: managed to save their books acd payers when tre whole building was in blaze. By this time several fire companies had arrived, but they were uoable to get wa ter, the fire plugs being perfectly exiausted. ‘Word was immed ately sent to the Water Wonks, but from seme cause 0° other nearly sn hour elapsed before the water came. To's delay cauaed much comment, and the Waier Wi rk« Company was cea- su'ed very freely. We learn fom the superiaten- dent that the lugs io the back part of the olty wee all running when the fire occurred, and not- withstunsing there is un ordinacce requiring all the plogs t be ciosed on such occasions, except those in the imme inte neighborhood of the fire, yet these plugs remained opened until the com an} sent aound men and hd them closed. After tails Wes dope there was no lick of water at the fire. | But in the interim the fire had soread with fearfal tap’ ity, and had crowed Tenoupitoulas etreet, and extended beck to Foucher street. The heat: was most iutense, The day it-elf was one of the hottest of the season, and tis, nnited to the fire, almost drove the firemen fiom their engines, The gutters were filled wich onl, and other inflimmable material, and many of the evgiv+s ha: thir suction pipes in them, increas ny rather t sn subduing the flames. Tie heat was, for «couple of burs 50 iacense that it was diffienk for tae temeo to remain at the | brakes more th na few moments ata time, and | several persons were suost ack. The crowd was | immense, nd, as usual, gr atly obstracted the effurts of the firemen and of toe many persons who were busily engaged in removirg »roperty by hand or on drays. Mayor Lewis was on the ground, and exerted | if but we must say t at, though the firemen worked | himself to preterve order and seonre prom ot action: well, there ap} to be bat very little of that concert of action which is indixpensable ia so exten- sive a conflagrati p. We were sorry, to, to see to varda tho close of the fire @ aotrit of rowdy1-m manifeated by two compa- wies, which is a! moat the fl stot the klad that ever staiced the fair annals of our Fire Department. We allude to the fight that took place in Commorce street. We are not able to say who originated the @hffi uit; but it is tothe beet intereste and the credit of both comoavies that the affair should be atrictly inquired into, and the offending parties pro riy reprimauded. Our Five Department has itherto justly beasted of the amicable disposition evinced by the companies towards esoh other; we trust it will at once put a stop to proceedings that vill otherwise s:on scquire for it a reputation as disgraceful as that of some of its Northern breth- ren. The flames speedily made their way into the row of buildings ou Magazioe street, botween Poy: draa ond Lufayette, occupied by tho well known honees of Martis, Owen & Cobb, Shultz, Hadden & Latting, Woodruff & Co., Parmele & Brothers, &0. ‘The walla of tuese buidings had ee ay thought to be ‘ize vroof, but they certainly did not deserve that credit. Pork, lard, bacon, guany bags, Jiquors, rope, and su h materials, when all in flames at once, sre strong wats of fire-proof walls, and these speedily failed. Fo:tanately they fell without iojuring any one, and gave greater facilities to get at the fire. Wm. H. Cock & Co.'s store, at th) cor- ber of Tchoupitoulax and Lafayette streets, and opporite Converse & C..’s large establishment, was ot 0 fortunate. (ie wall fell wita a tremendous crash, burving three ;ersons In the ruins. They were oll extricated, and we heard that one of them hed sincecied. We did not learn their names. The flames soon crossed Commerce etreet, and cacght the houses extending throagh to Maga- zire street. Those oa the upper side of Lafayette atreet were siso im flames, and several of those on the levee side of Tchoupitoulas street ware burning. The fie raged with great viruleoce for fully five hours before it wa- subdued, consuming property valued at abouta milton of dollars.

We have stated that the loss by this fire is eati- meted at a million ot doilars. Of this about two- thirds was covered by insurance. Some of our in- gurence companies have suffered seve ely, but we trust and believe none more than they can stand. The lack of water in the start was the cause of this great loss. Had toere been a sufficieacy of water when the ergines fir-t reached the spot, not more than two and probably not mere than ome house wonu!d bave beea burned. We commend this fact to the attention of the city authorities. Another thivg is tne waot of a proper fire alarm. Nearly an hour clapsed from the time the fire commenced before the alam was spread Fence | througbout the city. With a telegraphic ire alarm, acd a proper supply of water, such de- structive fires could scarcely occur. In our brief and imperfe t notice of tis fire in our evening paper of yesterday, we stated that there ‘was @ rumor that some kegaof poder had expl ded in the store of Converse & Co. We are happy now to state that the ramor was false, as there was not a | ponnd of pow ‘er in the store at the time of the fire.

Luto this Dr. Thompson, the family phy- sician of Rey. Mr. Pharr, was invited. He protested innocence, and also a desire to bave the body examin- ed, that te might thereby clear himself of suspicion. With the ucdersta: ding that such examination would take place, the meeting dispersed. But no examina- tion took place.

It weot on gathering strength, until there was scarce @ village in tbe region round in which the matter was not canvassed. About six seeks ago, two young men wrote to the editor of the Lynchburg Republican upon the matter, whi h furnished grouuds for the article which ay peared in tiat japer, and whivo we and other editors bave copied. Emboloened by the supposi- tion tbat the body of tbe maidered had ao far moul- dered away as to hice all indications of his guilt, Dr. T. went to Lynchburg, procured the names of the authors of the statement in the Republican, and re- turned and prosecuted them for slander. He also the editorial in the Era of the 13th uttimo, he sent bis brother over to deal with us. but bis fulmen ended io breath. We felt a conviction all along that something was wrong. Our sus; iciovs were grounded upon the fact that be was epgaged to Miss Pharr—that her death was sudden, with symptoms peculiar to death from etrychn'ne—tbat he showed a heartless and bratal insensility on the day of her death—that anony- mous letters were sevt to several of our towu phy- sisiarz, with mavy other correlative facts. Hen-e, we e|cke with gieater freedom than we otherwise hither to get physicians to that they were ready to prove themselves guilty of slarder, by such a couree, if the Dr. was innocent!

Yesterday morning, at 3 o’clock, the up freight train on the Lexington apd Covington Railrcad, comprising twenty three cars, came in collision with the passen- ger train at or near Morning Side, formerly Clark- son's Station, about 24 miles from Covington, kill- ing the conductor of tre former, E.

The tireman of the freight traia, named Wright, bad one of his feet dreadfully erushe?, and must lose it. A lady had her collar bone broken and was much biuised. The baggage master on the assenger train, Geo ge Spillman, was considerably injured. The ergiceer ef the same train eacaved injury by jampiug oF.

EXxrLosion axD Fire at rue Navy YARD at Wasnincton.—Pre) tions having been made for castiog a cylinder for the United States steamship Fulton, now lying at the navy yard, a large number of ladies and gentlemen procs eced thitner, yester- day afterncon, to witness the operation. The com- mendant of the station, Captaia Paulding, together with other officers, were likewise present. About 5 o’clock the werkmen commenced ruoniog the metal into the mould, which had béen sunk ina trench for that puryore. The contenta of two furnaces were required for the cylinder. Nearly two-thirds of the reqvisite quantity of material had been poured into the mould, when suddenly a stream of it burst upward to the wooden braces and rafters, thirty or forty feet from the ground. The volume of burnin, liquid ipcreased ; and but a few seconds ela before the roof was in flames, which rapidly extend: ed over the building, which is sixty by one handred feet iv dimensions. Tho bursting was caused by the generation of steam in the mould, the sand compo- sing which was unintentionally damp. The specta- tors and workmen, directly they saw the eruption, retreated; and when, fortunately, all of them were out of haim’s way, the mould barst, with a dull, heavy cound, heaving up the bursing contents, and scattering them over the floor. The engineer pra- cently let off tbe steam from the engine, to guard agsinst further damage. The entire woodwork of | foundry, including the roof, was destroyed, not- witbstanding the active excrtions of the firemen and the hundreds of ns employed in the yard. The model and finishing department, which adjoins the foundry, was saved from damage, particular at- tention having been bestowed upoa it. Several of the persons working at the fire were out on their beads and bands by pieces of slate, which fell from the foundry roof. The loss of the government is considerable, not only in the building, but in ma- chinery and moulds.—- Washington Sentinel, Aug. 12. AGoravatep Case or Rarr.—H. W.

For years the-ac- quisitio of Cuba has been desired by the ameri- cans, 18 & tro) ical volovial possession, and an addi- tion to the slave power of the Southern States. Strong ¢ndeavors are being made to interest all seo- tions in the movement, The sugar plaaters of Louisinuea are told that the price of sugar is now as low at it Cao be sealant tah and that the pro- abilities are that it wili be further reduced shoud the medified tunff pasa. Competitioa with the pro- | duction of Cuba, where labor, soil and climate are vil favorable, and where sugar can be mode all the year round, is out of the question, Bat the oon- trol of the sugar market would be the best teiff the planters of Louisiana cou'd possibly desi.e, und the acquisition ef Cubs affords the only means of obtuining such control, The flag of ruia 18 alzo flaunted in the tace of the cotton planters, whore interests ure alle to be identified in the struggle. If by the repeal of the duties the growers of sugar are forced to abandon their preac&t busi- ners, they will tun to cottua cultivation, au@ tree or four bundred thousand bales would be added to the crop spuually. Planters now say cotton is low enough—as low ee they can affurd to ratee it. Add 400,060 beles t» the crop, and decline in prive, for years to come, must be tae inevitable conse- uence. The possession of Cubs, therefure, affords the only means, in Ame:ican opinion, for the salva- tion of suger planters. ‘Cuba (they assert) muat be revolutionized to avert evils which threaten our ceetruciion. That is, land must pass into the hands of our countrymen, before we can have soy assur: apce that we will be paid for our to'l and laber.”’ Here are the statements of an influential journal of the Soutbern States:— An expedition ison foot for the regeneration of the island, ano that expedition bas the cordial, undivided cr inaucivlly and otherwise, of the # of Lout . and cf those of Texas and We sxsert what we know, a. The optoion is not only general, but unapimour, that without Cubs all will be lost—s#ith her, better times will come, and the labor of the hus- bupiiman receive adequate reward. The reasons for this conclusion are irresistible. Stop the slave trade, aad you have the hest tariff {cr the protection of your rugac ho: man ingenuity can devise. With Cuba in our possession, this wili te done—never without such possession. We will have command of the sugar markets of the word, and ‘he goveruwent can dictate such terms in frautug recipryca) duties with roreign governments as will piace = by the side of the grain grower and pork raiser of the est. Cuba produces about 320 000 tons of , and amount of sugar now Espa made would be in the bands of the Americans. Five years ago a lead- ing American writer thus stated the prevalent opi- nion with respect to Cuba:— No one cap coub! at this moment there is a well fixed and almost universal conviction upon the minds of our people that the porsession of Cubs is indispensable to the state the fact without entering into the reason or justi- fy ing it, that such a conviction exists. Call it the lust of ieminiop, the restleseness of democracy, the psssion for lapd or gold, or the desire der our interior impreg- nable by commanding the keys of the Gulf, the pos- session of Cuba is still an American sentiment, ‘not, to be sure, 8 late, but s growing and strengthening one. The americans usually pursue & means toanend, and they invariably accom; lish their object sooner or ater. The resources of the island are very important. It bas upwards of three hundred miles ef railroad completed, and a farther considerable extent in Progiess. The taxes are enormous, and the govern- Tent revenue of the isiand amoants to nearly £3,000,000 sterling ver annnm. Its average ex- ¥$31'000,000, snd ita imports ‘$35,000,000, or tone 4,000,000, sn , or toge- ther above £12 000,000 sterling. For some time tue cultivation of coffee in the island has been grada- ally abandoned, while that of sugar and tobacco has greatly augmented. The population of Cuba, according to the latest return (1851), amounted to one million and a quay- ter, of which 436,100 were slaves, 205,570 free colored persons, aud 605,560 whites. The military force of Cuba is by no means insignificant, ani any PE ae it NBR cae against Caba qill be likely to meet with a warm reception. The mili- tary force of the island is at the present time as follows—Spani-h svldicrs, 24,000; mulatto flank companies, 3,000; Spanish forces embarked and on their way to Cuba, in three frigatee, four eloops of war, and two war steamers, about 8,000; makiog a total of 35,000 men. In aduition to this,:the police agents are well armed, and their number im in- creased, and they are provisionally commissioned as a police Yt amounting to 4,000 men. The sailors and marines, on the atyival of the squairon, woud number 5,000; so that the entire defen- sive force of the islard numbers 44,000, which, with the frigates,steamers and sloops of war engag- ed in the rame defence, shows that the authorities of Cuba are pretty well Eecvare’ for any foray npon that island. The y osition of Havana is sach, de fended as it is by powerfal fortifications on both sides of the entrance from a¢a and on the land side, aa to make it jastly considered the Gibraltar of the Western World. The Commercial Bulletin of New Orleans, a pa- per cf no mean repute, being the most important Caily organ of the slave States, thus lays down the law for us in no measured terma:— It strikes us that Great Britain cannot with “good grace,” or any other sort of grace, good, bad or indife- rent, ‘protest agninst the acquisition of territory by the Unitea tates, no matter how strongly her preiUlections may run in a contrary direction. Of all the nations of the earth. t Britaia should hold her peace when an: of her neighbors propore adding territory to their doumi- nions. Other governments may protest, and other coun- tries may, perhaps, complain with some show of reason or justico, But England, so long aa her own possessions re- main unmotesied, can bring neither argument nor reason to bear, to justify her in complainiog of, much less ressting, the : cquisitiveness of her cotemporaries. This is the nation, wiseceres tell us, that is going to ob- ject, Jorsibly employ force, to provent Cuba from fall- ing snto the hands of the United States. Has England anncxed so much thet she supposes she has exclusive rigtts in that line? Has she bought so much thit she would run all the bidcers out of the market? Has she acquired so much that she will not brock rivalry in’ac- quisition? Has sho robbed so much that she assumes to be, par excellence, the sole robber nation of the earth? If so, we think she ill find herself lamentably mis. taken. But, whatever may be her views, she not interfere with the United States, either in the purchase or nequirition by force of the Inlind of Cubs. It would be Dusintre for hee to get into a war with the It would not poy, end she knows it. Be- she has felt twice the ‘talooa of the Amarican engl, and then, again, she cannot get along without our cotton. Cuban annexationiats need have no fears about English-opposition. It will never amount to anything. ba is too valuable a pogseasion to the Spanish overnivent to be parted. with on easy terms. Asthe jast of Ler once vast valuable colonial territories, irre- spective of its great present importance, she natu: rally clings PP gh eer gae | to this “ Queen of the Antilies”—the be Nees richest, and most beautifal of the West India Ixiands. Attempts at insurrection from within, and attacks from without, have been equally repelled, and all overtures for its purchase ecornfully refused; and with all its maxeuvriog, wo believe the time is fur distant when the ban- ner of the stars and strip:s will be suffered to,wave over the forts of Cuba, aud slavery be perpctusted & poerfal commercial State, which boasts that Cad and fis institutions are the freest in the world. Horrists Derravity.—Yesterday morning, be tween 1 and 2 o'clock, the inhabitants in the vicini- ty of South and Broad streets were aroused from their slumbcrs and startled by the crics of murder, in a female voi-e. Two of the night watchmen on that beat, followed by a lieutenant of police, heard the cries, and started in search of the place from whence they iseued. They were directed by thé noise to the third story of a honae in a court running from South stieet, below Broad.
