and enormous embezzlements have within a

equally certain is that the perpe’ rater of these

those who have b’ “n com icted and punished,

Field’a Analysis to’ Wutkstone's Commentaries
Avery popular law work under this title has
‘■ere::t<y V*en published in New York from the
! second -London edition.
i This woik is a rief analysis of Blacks! one’s
j Commentaries of the Laws of England, in ass-
I ries of q-r stiony, to which the student'is to
frame his own answers by reading that work’
and particularly .calculated to aid the.memory,
and stveng'h -n and exercise the judgment in
the perusal thereof
T|,e Comments! es of sir William tllackslone
have held so high a rank among the celebrated
profesiona! g,-ntlemen of England, as to be ter
med by some ijf tin-m, a Law Bible, aid by all,
put into the hands of their students, as the” first
and most important exposition of that enligh
teneil system.
It is then, matter of great wonder, that upon
this valuable i ext,-there lias heretofore been no
senes of questions, or in fact n< Catechism , by
which to aid the student with a better no tiled
of perusal. Theology, all branches of edura
tion, Chemistry, Piiisiology, and various other
sciences, h .ve had aids of tins kind to faci'.iate
the student; while law, the most abstruse and
complex of ail sciences, is indebted to Mr. Field
for a first attempt. It is due to him, to say, a
more succinct, well digested series of -q lestiou s
could not have been put to the student by the
ablest Civilian cf the age.
This work has gone through two editions in
England, with a rapidity unexampled in law
publications.

Fire. The large three atoiy B ick
Warehouse, at the corner of High anti
Bridge streets, well slocked with D\y
Goods, Hardware, <£c belonging to Major
William Stansbury, was totally destroyed
by fire yesterday morning. The concus
sion produced by the explosion of gunpow
der. which burst eft’the doors and windows,
and fluew some goods into the street, gave
the first alarm, about one o'clock.
Insurance on Dry Goods had bean effec
ted for £ 1 6.000; on Hardware £IO,OOO, on
Groceries gj.ooo. and on the store £2,
800. Conjectures are various as to the
origin of this conflagration ; but there are
strong indications, as is said, of its being
the wi.rk of incendiariets.
Mr Joshua Gorsuch’a store on Bridge
street, was considerable damaged. Two
frame houses on High street were torn
down, and several others much injured.
The usual exemplary alacrity was dis
played by the Hose and Engine C ompany
ies, and citizens in general; but unfortuna
tely no water was to be had from the Fir-
Plugs, until some time had elapsed. The
most respectable families in the neighbor
hood were liberal in furnishing refresh

their attention, which is duly appreciated
by the firemen.— Patriot.

One of the charges brought agninst th

From the'Jefferson liepublican,
Mr. Printer—Travelers passing throug}

such an amount of public properly “g.uinj

been a difficult or expensive job to haul
these ships upon dry land, anti t 0 have *

out the mast] so that they might lute

use if ever wanted. The On auo s team

there i an abundance of tigging, blocks

what it has cost government one year w

1 perceive that ihe Lady of the Lake it

ped that this inimitable little vessel, at
least will be hauled out and pre-erwil at
a relic ol the fleet which once floated on
our waters; as she now lie: exposed to the
weather, she must shortly like the residue
of the fleet become totally useless.
It is tube legretUd. that the sbippint
