H o w the fireoriginated, we have been un able to ascertain ; buit when first discovered,smoke was seen issuing from the main hatchw ay, where about 100 bags of saltpetre had been stowed ; some of the bags were immediately removed by the crew and thrown over board ; but finding the fire had already spread too extensively to be extinguished in this way, the hatches were closed, in hopes they might succeed in sm othering it. M eanwhile, the cry of “ powder” having been raised, the truth of which seemed to be confirmed by some slight ex plosions, tlie crew left the vessel for the wharf, and lucky it was for themi that they did so. B y this time, the firemen and citizens generally had col lected in great numbers, and though some o f them were induced to hold back, deterred by the c ry of powder, and the fear o f consequences, still an im mense mimberhad already thronged, and were still thronging forward, and had filled the w h a rf and adjacent streets to the number probably of 1500 or 2000, when a most terrific explosion took place in the vessel, completely tearing the deck and scatter ing the burning fragments, as also m a n y heavy articles of her cargo, in every direction.

The Star makes a calcula tion to show how much the children have lost in wages r work, and from that draws the illiberal conclusion that it is always belter to submit to i sion than to resist it, because to get it remove cost a trifle. Such arguments would do well enough for the Journal of Commerce, as that paper has never expressed a liberal sentiment, but they are out of place in the Slar.
