Later from 'Spain-Direct.-The arrival of
Alfred at New York from Cadiz, which place
die left on the 5th of February, has supplied in
teliigence from Madrid to the 28th of Jauuary
-nine days later than before received.
The affairs of the Queen appear to be acqui
ring strength, and she is said to be on terms of
cordiality and confidence with her ministers —
The only important measure which the latter
had undertaken since their recent induction
into office, was the raising of the military
iorce of the country from the peace to the
war establishment. It now consists of 120,000
men (instead of 60,000) and it is supposed that
this course has been resorted to for the purpose
of riding the peninsula of both Don Carlos and
Don Miguel.
The change of the ministry had caused so
great rejoicings in many parts of Spain, that it
had been deemed expedient to suppress the
manifestation of them, from fear of excesses.
The Carlist faction was not extinct, but was
tvlprl as formidable.
General San Martin has succeeded General
Vivas in the Captain-Generalship of Valencia,
and General Valdez takes the place of General
Saarsfield, both in the command of the army
and in the Vice Royalty of Navarre.
The most important feature in the present as
pect of Spain, is the contemplated re-organiza
lion of its government. The Cortez, it is under
stood, will not be convoked; but instead of it a
representative government established, consist
ing of two branches. Two-thirds of the upper
branch is to consist of the nobility, and one-third
of the higher orders of the clergy. The lower
branch is to consist of 250 members, elected
from the cities, towns, and villages.
It was believed that the adjustment of affairs
with the South American States would be one
of the first subjects discussed by the new gov
ernment.
Extensive Conflagration in New 1ork.—On
Monday last, between 8 and 9 o’clock, P. M.,
New York wa3 again visited by a destructive
l fire. It broke out in a stable in the rear of
Mulberry street, and almost adjoining the
rear of Mr. Chase’s Baptist Church in Mott
street, and was occasioned by the careless use
of a lighted candle. The wind being fresh,
the flames were carried upwards with incredi
ble celerity towards the Roman Catholic Or
phan Asylum, where their progress was imped
ed by the precaution taken in rendering the
rear of that building impervious to fire. Had
the Asylum been burnt, no human power could
have saved that immense church, St. Patrick’s
Cathedral, from total destruction. As it was,
it several times took fire, and was extinguished
by feats of boldness and daring. The Commer
cial Advertiser gives the following paragraphs:
The dwelling houses destroyed were from fif
teen to twenty in number, and included about
... i . il. _ l_
IIC1J1 UIC IHIIllUtl 111 UiC cu'wuvtvv. WI1
Spring,Mulberry, Prince and Mottstrees. They
were occupied by perhaps not less than fifty
families, chiefly natives of Ireland. A few of
these houses were of brick, or had brick fronts
—the remainder were two story frame buildings,
f here were in the centre of the square, the large
three story brick school house attached to the
Asylum, a plaister-of-Paris factory, a slaughter
louse, and about a dozen cartmen’s ^tables, all
which were totally destroyed, together with
one horse and several swine. The total num
ef of buildings destroyed, we think, is not less
ian forty, of all descriptions.
The great difficulty was, the want of a
?°od supply of water. Although the hydrants
Uere at no great distance, they afforded but
; a very partial supply. For some time the
public cisterns, particularly those in front of the
?ev- Mr. Pattern’s church, in Broome-street, af
0rfled a sufficiency for two lines, yet so rapid
*as *he progress of the flames, that water seem
to have lost its natural properties. We are
Phased to find that the Board of Assistants
1 Solution was introduced, calling upon the
^Committtee to inquire into the expedien
s * Staining a better supply of water for the
hydrants. "

Philadelphia.—A town meeting is to be held

*«cutive usurpations.

Opening of Canals.—We are authorized, says j
I the Albany Argus, to state, that the Canals will
; be ready for navigation on the 17th day of April
j next. It is the intention of the Canal Commis
| sioners to have the repairs completed and the
i water let in, so that the whole extent of the ca
nals shall *be navigable on the morning of that
day. ___
A strong view—The Philadelphia Commercial
. Intelligencer, a decided Anti-Bank paper, says:
“ We have never been the apologist or cham
' pion of the Bank of the United States; but own
that we are struck with surprise at the blindness
of those who prefer one hundred United States
i Banks, equally corrupt, and, as organized, far
, more powerful. Such an engine will be enabled
to rule the country with a rod of iron; and it will
be in the hands of those who will not leave it
unemployed.”
Labor is honorable—The following paragraph
extracted from the Message of Governor Davis
to the Legislature of Massachusetts, is highly
creditable to its author.
“While we continue to respect labor—while
we look upon it, as it is, the great element that
imparts to our country a growth which errors
in public policy can scarcely check, and to our
institutions their overpowering strength; while
we hold it to be meritorious and honorable, in
stead of servile; while we cling to the purity and
simplicity of life, which belongs to this condition
instead of degenerating into the follies, the va
nity and false hopes which overgrown wealth
often begets; while we pursue a policy that will
give to this labor the most ample scope and en
couragement in all its various occupations, we
shall have little occasion to entertain apprehen
sion for our free institutions, if we also continue
to provide liberally for the culture and improve
ment of the mind.”
Junius.—The authorship of Junius, it is ex
pected, will now be revealed, as the injunction
of secresy, it is said, terminated with the life of
the late Lord Grenville. [Doubtful.]
A correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer
asks, shuddering,—“ Is it true that the address
of the majority of the Virginia Legislature is
to be prepared by a gentleman of the Federal
Party?” The editor of the Enquirer must have
thought of the gentlemen of the Federal party,
Messrs. Taney, M‘Lane, &c., who have certain
offices at Washington.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman to his
triend in Baltimore, dated
Washington, March 10, 1S34.
The rumors of the resignation of the Secreta
ry of State increase and I have no doubt he
must retire. He is a high minded statesman,
and how can he remain among a set actuated
by purposes purely selfish, and which his clear
head sees will bring indiscriminate ruin upon
the land? His efforts bring back to “the old Ro
man” to wiser counsels are fruitless. In fact, he
stands alone, and is counteracted by all around
him; even the Secretary of War who, at first,
co-operated with Mr. M’Lane, aids in his con
versation with the President, to countenance
him in his unhappy course—at the same time he
would induce the opposition to believe that he
still adheres to his opinions against the removal
of the deposites. This man has been greatly over
rated. He lacks firmness, and has not the en
larged views which a statesman ought to pos
sess. ___
The National Gazette says:—We stated yes
terday that we had reason to believe that Mr.
John A. Brown, whom the President had endea
vored to injure, [see Pittsburg Report in yester
day’s Gazette,] has no loan from the Bank of
the United States. We have since informed
ourselves upon the subject, and learnt that nei
ther that gentleman nor his house have had a
discount or a loan of any kind from that insti
tution since 1829, and that they do not owe the
Bank of the United States one dollar.
In Kentucky, the Legislature of the State has
passed an act to establish a Bank, to be entitled
the Bank of Kentucky, with a capital of five
millions of dollars, and a charter to continue
thirty years.
Mr. Tanner is making arrangements lor pub
lishing, as speedily as the nature of the work
will admit, a new and much improved edition
! of his large and excellent Map of the United
States.
The Richmond Compiler says:—'“ Chapman
Johnson, Esq. addressed the People at the Coun
ty Court House yesterday morning, on the sub
ject of the President’s course in removing the
i Public Deposites. His speech was about three
! hours and a half in length, and decidedly one
; of the ablest and most conclusive arguments
we have ever listened to, on that or any other
' subject. Repeated cheers interrupted the speech
and the crowd left the Court House at a late
| hour with but one feeling—that of gratification
| and delight.”
That the President entertains no idea of an
early adjournment of Congress, is evident from
the fact, that he has sent in, as yet, but few of his
nominations. He has not nominated the Secre
tary of the Treasury, who was in office three
months before the commencement of the session,
yet the two Houses have been sitting about, or
nearly four months. _
A bill has been before the Legislature of New
York to abolish capital punishments. It was
rejected in the House of Assembly on the 8th in

Mr. Meech, the late Jackson candidate for
Governor of Vermont, is one of the signers of a

NOTICE.
APPLICATION will be made to the President
and Directors of the Fire Insurance Com
pany of Alexandria for the renewaPof certifi- (
cates for twenty shares of stock in the said Com
pany, issued in the name of William H. Miller,
viz: for ten shares, numbered 3,261 to 3,270, in
clusive, dated April, 1814; and ten shares, num
bered 260 to 269, inclusive, dated June, 1814—
which certificates have been lost or mislaid.
We are requested to say that the object of the’
meeting on Friday evening, is to instruct our re
presentative in Congress, to obey the will of his
constituents, in the present alarming crisis, or
resign his seat. In addition, to appoint a Com
mittee of Safety,to watch at this dark and event
ful hour, over the general interest.
To the counties of Hanover, New Kent and
Charles City, we recommend the example about
to be set by-Richmond and Henrico. Is it not
shameful—is it not intolerable—that at such a
time, the voice of this people should be silenced
on the floor of Congress, and they by ther .Re
presentative, made to approve principles and to
support measures, which their souls abhor?

Scan Mag.—This is the title of a farce lately
brought out at one of the London theatres,
which the London Athenaeum speaks of as one
of the broadest and most indecent pieces exhi
bited on the stage in many years. As an evi
dence of its utter unfitness for reprepesenta
tion, it is mentioned that the female part of the
audience left the house precipitately, disgusted
by the broad allusions of the dialogue. The
manager of the Park Theatre, we understand,
is about to favor this community by getting up
the scandalous farce.—N. Y. Post.
March of Morals.—The latest Paris papers
give glowing descriptions of a new ballet by M.
Taglioni, called the Revolte au Serail, which
has lately been performed at the Opera House,
with enthusiastic applause. It attracts, every
night, admiring crowds of enlightened and fash
ionable Parisians, of both sexes. The scenery
is splendid, and some of the incidents are said
to be piquante beyond all parallel. The follow
ing is a specimen:
Under a kiosk, surrounded with magnificent
columns is a large basin of white marble, in
which are seen bathing eight beauties of the Se
raglio! The water is transparent, and the heads
and busts of the lovely Odalesques while play
fully sporting, are seen above the surface. Af
ter a little time, the beauties come out of the
bath dripping, and are dried by female slaves,
and dressed on the stage!
What an effect such an exhibition must have
on the virtue and morals of a people.

A Generous Act.—On Saturday week before
last, as the Rev. F. E. Pitts, of this city, was a
passenger on board the Steam Boat Tobacco
plant, Capt. Organ, a scene occurred, the des
cription of which cannot fail to touch every gen
erous heart. The boat was rounding to for
the purpose of effecting a landing about 16 miles
above Clarksville. The curvature in the course
of the boat had made a proud swell in the wa
ter and a whirlpool near the wheel of the boat.—
The Rev. Mr. Pitts had just stepped out from
breakfast upon the guards of the boat with a se
gar in his mouth, and saw a child, about four
years old, belonging to Mrs. Rama, (‘apt. Or
gan’s sister, playing on the guards. The child
was suddenly precipitated into the boiling
waves near the wheel of the boat. Without
waiting to give an alarm or a thought to his own
danger, Rev. Mr. Pitts plunged'in after the
child. As he struck the water the child had
sunk; and while he was somewhat embarrassed
with his overcoat floating out upon the waters,
he watched the rising, caught the child as it
came to the surface, and swam ashore with the
senseless little sufferer, and had the happiness
to see its suspended vitality return, and place it
in the hands ofits mother. Such was his pos
session of mind, that he kept his segar in his
mouth until he reached the shore. The grateful
feelings of friends at such a rescue may be ima
gined;—they can never be described.
