WHO that has read ,the history of the United State‘s‘th‘at has not been struck with the theory emblazoned on its every pageâ€"that “ God has - made of one blopd all nations of the~ earth todwegll upon the earth ;” whilst on the other side of the same that the Southern‘portiOn of this great Re- public subsists by their traffic in human blood, ;,and reducing the. “image of God” to the condition of a chattel, and a thing having no ~.. -_. .-~ more’right or‘i’priwlege than cattle." Ever since ‘2 the union between Ndrth- and South was a fact, this anomalous statewof things has con- tinued, and the “ irrepressmle con- flict” has of consequence been carâ€" ried on with ,Iieyer varied success. For a while, «heWeVer, it seemed that the bullying and swagger of the South ovcrawed the people of the North, and a brutal Brooks could, in the. Senate House, cane an illustrious Sumner because he dared to say that slavery was the‘ most d--iabolic&lÂ¥bf-"crimes, no one daring to avenge the insult; and slaverywas.seen*<“attenipting to ex- .lend her borders in every direction, till it was feared by many sincere admirers of .ll‘lB-z‘rReDUbllc that her glory was about, to bc- tarnished by becoming, nota bulwark of liberty, but the only stronghold on earth for the blood bespangled banner of slavery; and, [that a people who professed to be the frecst of the free, would in reality prove to be the greatest desposl; for of. a,ll:dcspot- isms, that which robs man of his manhoodiis the most .accursed.â€"â€" But we trust that a better era has commenced, and that slavery has, in the person of the U. S. elect President, received a check from which it will never recover. It is a great triumph ofright over wrong. The defenders of the “ peculiar in- stitution ” have been badly beaten at the polls, as Lincolnâ€"~tlie on- com p romising opponent of slaveryâ€"- has been elected President by an overwhelming majority. we need not say that England and Canada heartily congratulate the North on their bloodless tri- umph.

There was scarcely any bustle, neither was there any quarrelling, fighting or drunkenness, but every ,thing passed off in the most orderly andpcaceable manner. After the exhibition was over, the Directors, lJudges and others, sat down to a really sumptuous dinner, provided by Mr. Jennings of the Pine Grove Hotel ; indeed, we. must injustice say, that this was the best agricul- tural dinner we sat down to this year.

Mr. Rowe sent the challenge to the Aurora Club at the time of the King Fair by \Villson Linton, and also left word with Mr. Christison that the Springhill Cricket Club would play the Aurora Club on the same conditions as Were offered to the Richmond Hill Club. 1n consequence of this challenge, I sent a letter to Mr. Rowe stating that the Aurora Club would play them a friendly game.

Sage, Rebuilt Gardner and Fire“ Marshall Lovo, immediately by‘a horculean ef- fort, raised a ladder big enough, for eight giants to handle. Mr. Gardner penetrated into the building and brought out the girl, almost sulfuâ€" cated. She was handed down the ladder by her gallant deliverer, and received by Geo. Love in safety. [‘wo other girls, Bridget Mulcahoy, cook, and Ann McAulev, chambermaid, must have perished in the attempt to struggle down through the smoke. They Were sought for, but unavailingly. V _ 'rvvo LIVES LQST. On the same floor, on. the side next Main street, several gentlemen beardors at the Clar- endon had their rooms. Mr. Henry L. Cham- lain. of the firm of Lowe &' Chamberlain, oc- cupied the room in the northwest corner, Mr. William, Cal-land, Mr. C. H. COwan and Mr. B. Franklin, of New York, had rooms adjoin- ing. These apartments were quickly barricad- ed with smoke. Mr. Franklin escaped by a suffocating ordeal. Mr. Cowan states that hearing the alarm he got out..of bed, and open- ed the door into the hall, when his room was instantly filled with smoke. He then opened- liis window and called to Mr. Car-land in the nextroom. He heard that gentleman as be supposed, let down his window from the top. Mr. Cowan then made his way downstairs, al- most choking in the 11:111.. :11 , was the last who came by that route. Mr. ‘_arland,it seems. had a window in his room open to the ball, so that his must have been enveloped in smoke. He probably never left his room, and so perish- ed in the ruins ' Mr. Chamberlain, a short while later, failing to make his escape by the stairs, was seen at his window, frantic with alarm. e was told by the firemen to hold on till they could raise their ladder, but all appeals to his reason were vain. He threw himself to the ground, and striking the iron balustrade in his descent, fell mortally injured on the pavement. Both his legs and arms were broken, and his face was horribly mutilated. lie was taken first into Peabody’s drug store. and afterwards to Mat- thews’, but expired in a short time. THE ALARM IN THE HOTEL. The excitement in the hotel was intense. Gongs were sounded and every conceviable alarm given. Guests and boarders rushed from their rooms and hurried, some with scanty ward- robes, down into the laidies’, parlours.‘ Happily all were suffered to escape, and nearly all of the baggage of the inmates was saved, together with a large pa__rt of the boardors’ furniture, dire. All were speedily got out and properly cared for. . . * _ THE Losr,’ -' , The night was one of uninterrupted rain, but as the fire gained strength itgruse through the roof and burst out at the windows inhig-her and wilder forms of flame, and at rlast, in spite of all efforts, raged demoniacallyxiu all parts of the main building.’ The utmosttlgtgat‘couldbe done, was to save the wing on Division-street. Roof and ceiling fell in with thunderous crashes, and. the whole of the stately, substantial. structure, that so long has been, a pleasant home for the traveller and an ornament to the city, sunk to a shapeless mass of ruins. Before daylight. only the strong brick walls stood up, out of whose glassloss and shashless windows. looked forth the ghasth desolation of the interior. All Saturday painful rumours were rife that still other lives than those whose loss we have mentioned had ‘ been sacrificed in the general destruction. It is pretty certain however, that only four persons perished. On Saturday afternoon excavations were commenced with a view to discover the re- mains of Mr. Carland, but up to night those efforts were fruitless. The bodies of the girls, Ann McAuley and Bridget Mulcahey, were also yet unrecognized amid the ruins. It was thought altogether likely that all three would be resolved into unrecognizable ashes.

CLUE TOaTHE' M URDERERSL- (From the N. Y. Com. Advertiser, Nov. This morning the town 'of New, Lots“ N. J., was thrown into a state of excite- ment by the discovery of a cold-blooded murder that had been perpetrated during. the night, the victim of which was Theo-- dore Colyer, a farmer, living about [half a: mile from east New York, on the Ridgeé wood Heights, between the Jamacia plank road and the Cypress Hill roadl. Mn. Colyer Went to market last night with“; load of trunks and did not return. Hie wile seeing his waggon in the yard about half-past 5 o’clock this morning went. out- to the barn and there found her husband. lying dead on the floor with his head spliy ope-n. , . . . - . The statement given by Mrs. Colycrr. is that yesterday afternoon Mr. Co you. went to New York with a load of prorucc' A which he sold for about $50; he is also known to have collected bills to the amount ., He returned at6 o’clock, , he went out to the store bf Mr. Tcrney; on the plank road, to change a bill to pay. for ,. boots he had purchased there. While .in"... the store he had occasion to pay comm, money’ and drew out a roll of bills. Some- one remarked ‘ Colyer you-arc: flush gov night. I .~,,,. Two strangers who. were in the stone, got up and looked over Colyer’s shoulders... and then went and sat down, and .laughcdi together in a low tone in German. Col-w r yer borrowed a pitcher and had it‘ filled: with beer, and saying that he was now: going to feed his horses. He left the. store, and was followed in a few moments-i. by the two men. Mrs. Colyer says! that about ten o’clock she went out on. the stoop to look for her husband, but not: seeing anything of him, nor any light ll!" the barn, she thought he had not returned she went to and returned to bed. ' L This morning when she woke masher. was surprised at finding that her, husband-- had not come in during the night. She: got up, lit a tire, and got breakfast-,, and; then went out to the barn._ The barn 59.. about 200 yards from the house; the thing she noticed was that the door, was, open, and there was-a pool- of blood on? the threshold, and a' few feet further o‘n.‘ the floor lay the body of her husband}: frightfully mangled about the head and?" face, and in a pool of blood. ' " She uttered a piercing scream, which“. attracted the attention of other members-.5 of the family, who came out and' carried? Mrs. Colyer fainting into the house- ‘ The' whole neighborhood was soon alarmed. The skull of the deceased was literally . split in two, and the brains scattered over , the floor. It is supposed that he- ofi’cred. M some resistance, as a straw cutter was, found lying near hand,cOVered with blood... and this could not have been. theweaponu , used by the Inurdcrersues .t'lie- saturii’ in... the wounds show that (they: were'inflicfedl with an axe, or some heavy blunt instruir“ ment. I .. It is supposed that Mr. Culyer had inc-‘7' his possession: from $125 to $200, allot?” which was taken by the murderers, as went as his gold watch. In taking the watch, it seems that in their hurry they could not unfasten the chain, but broke it, leaving .1 part of it attached to the vest ofdeceased. , The two men who are suspected of the - murder are Germans, farther and sumâ€"e- Tliey were employed recently by Meson”, Conklin 8L Clary, contractors, who are repairing the Cypress I-Iills road. Their ’- names are not known, but a full descrip- tion ot the men has been given to the' police authorities. They were discharged: from work on Saturday, and have been seen around the neighborhood during Sun‘s day and Monday, but this morning the"i , were nowhere to be found. - 1 ' v The pitcher of beer which Colyer took - with him from the ;store was found in. the barn on the lloor, not far' from tbe'body. The theory is that the two Germans fol- lowed Colyer from the store, and mur derd ed him soon after he entered the barn. Mr- Colyer was in good circumstances, _ had one of the finest farms in the neighbor» hood, and was much esteemed by: “I. neighbors. He leaves a wife and lfrree young children to mourn his loss.
