THE MAINE BLECTION—FALL OF A BUILDING AND LOSS OF LIFE IRISH MILITARY COMPANY DIS- BANDED—THE WEBSTER-FRANKLIN ESTATE. + Boston, Sept. 18, 1854. The Portland Advertiser, of this morning, says that in the Sixth district the run wili be close between Milliken (fasion) end Fuller, (democrat,) with the chances in fa- vor of the former, who, by the returns received, is some nine hundred votes ahead of his opponent. 0 far, Milliken bas not received a vote in Arostook county. A building fell in Lowell on Saturday afternoon, bury- ing three persons, one of whom—Dennis Shea, seven. teen yeors of age—was instantly killed. The others escaped with slight bruises. The building had been partially burnt before the accident. The official order of the Governor disbanding the Bay State Artillery of this city appeared in the afternoon pa- per, and causes some excitement. The company is chiefly composed of naturalized Irish. At the time of the reception cf the Montgomery Guards, from New York, a row occurred betwoen the three Irish companies of the city, which led'to a reprimand from the Governor. ‘The Bay State Artillery made an impudent rejoinder, and they are now disbanded. In regard to the sale of Mr. Webster’s right in the Franklin estate, it is said that it will probably be bought by Mr. Paige, one of the trustees, and that no outside competition is expected or desired. « Celebration of the Adoption ef the Federal .

The delegates marched in processions, with torchlights, ban- ners, &c , from the various wards to Independonce square, which presented a beautiful appearance, the platform being illuminated by gas lights and decorated with flags. The resolu‘ions were read from both stands by J. Murray Kush, and a¢opted. The General Health, THE YELLOW FRVER IN THE SOUTH. Bartrmors, Sept. 18, 1854. The yellow fever is increasing at New Orleaas.

THE AUSTRIAN CONSUL, A man named Jacob Ryback, a native of Grata in Styria, contrived, as it is-alleged, to obtain from a num- terof small manufacturers in Vieuna a quantity of dry goods amourtizg in value io about 75,000 florins— $87,(00—with which it appears he came to this couhtry intending to enjoy his oasfiy acquired wealth in comfort. ‘ihe Austrian Cocbul General of this city, Charies F. Loosey, sq , who had-beenayplied to by the duped cre- ators to save their property, lost no time in performing bis duty, and ccmpletely suoceeded in foiling the intea tions of Ryback, Mr. Loosey haying been appointed by the Court as receiver of. the goods, therevy enabiirg the partion to claim them. Exasperated at the failure of his attempt, Ryback threatened several times to kill ths Consul if he did not stay the proczedings agaiast him, but finding thet no notice was taken of bis threats and too much forbearance manifested by the Consul, he watched for an opportuaity when nv witness was pre sent, and enterea Mir. Lovsey’s office in the Hanover builéings, Hapover aquare, on Friday afternoon, a” about 4 o'clock, and there demanded the papers ia his case; ov being refused, he drew from his pocket a double bar relled pisto! and presented it at vir. Lowey, who. nothing dvunted, seized Ry back and wrested the weapon from him At this ivstant a friend of Mr. Loosey’s entered the Con. sul’s effice, and Kyback departed. Un examining the pistol it was found tha: it «as not loaded Mr. Loosey, accomyauied by his couneel, Mr. Le ue, proceeted to the ‘tombs yesterday and lodged iaformation vefore Justices Osborne, whe issued a warrant for the arrest of Fyback. These asenults—acd all other acts tending to distusb the public peace—murt be put down; the strong arm of tho ’sw must intervene to pucish all aggressors, for though the weapon in thie instance was not loaded, a timid man might have been terrified into compliance with the arsailint’s demand; or had Mr. Loo-ey his re volver at hand, ho would rot bave waited, perhaps. to inquire whether the 1 point him was loaded or not. If a gentleman is to be threstened to be shot down. in the very heart of the city because of the honest per- formance of his official duties, then, iudeed, may wo look for ward to seenes of blood, for no man ena feel safe unless provided with an instrument of de‘euce.
