There are so few “dorgs” in this city* however, that vve fear the acquisition of taxes from this source will not bo very large. Firct Yesterday morning, betwen twelve and one o'clock, the stable and barn ts John Bolder, Esq., in the 3tb Fire District, were discovered to be on fire, and a span of horses, with the contents of the buildings, were consumed. With admirable prompti tude our gallant Firemeu hurried to the spot, but arrived too late, lrom the great distance to be travelled over, to uccomplish say good. This is a considerable loss to Mr. 8., which we very much regret to learn. YrHerday—• The day opened with decided appear iices of a storm, and, about ti A. M., spened were the windows of heaven, and a very nice rain was the consequence, making svery apparent impression on the mer eury-awl followed by a pleasant breeze tad not disagreeable sunshine.

With open ejo and mouth spread wide With ainUter look and a shuMing stride ~ With visage keea, whereon was wrote The motto which beneath we quote— Mule*! “Whence cometh thou?’* the drover said ; “What do you leak —have you got ‘the red*? Do you a fine mule wish to bay t" “Yen, *lf, I do,” wae the reply— Mule*' Tho mules wero looked at and appraised, And then the drovor seemed amazed When the youth sot down at onco and wrote That he had bought—with legal note— ** Mules. ••I spoae it'* right," the drover cried ; ‘‘Oh, yes,” at once the youth replied ; “For I hove fixed my hand and seal — And hare no thought or wish to steal Mules.” The mules secured, on a “apeo” intent, Our hero to tho neighbors went, And several wero induced to buy, While still went up the young mao’s cry- - Mules !

As soon us the parts begin to swell, wrap the part affected with cloth thoroughly saturated with tincture of lobelia, ami the felon is dead. An old physician says he has known it to cure in scores of eases, and it never tails, if applied in season. Aorlli Carolina I.rfflsluiure. The Raleigh Standard, ol the 28th inst., stlftes that the Republicans cannot have less than 32 of the 5(1 Senators, and 08 of the 122 Representatives in tho North Carolina Leg islature, giving them IT majority in each House, or 28 on joint ballot. The £fleci. Immediately after the Radical victory in Arkansas, say3 the Missouri Democrat, th* bonds of that State rose very rapidly in the market. Precisely the same thing occurred ia Tennessee, and in this .Statu everybody remembers that our bonds were selling below seventy five before the election of 18C6, and instantly after that election jumped up ten per cent., and have since risen to 109, with fifteen per cent, back interest paid. Again, in Arkansas the papers ut once begin to talk of the prospect of having the long needed railroads com pletcd, and capital hitherto unwilling to invest in a State so unsettled, begins to look into its enterprises. Precisely the same result has followed Radical victories in Tennessee aud Missouri. In a word, Radical victory means restoration of credit, revival of business, re establishment of industry, development ot resources, build ing of railroads, order, prosperity arid peace Hebrew' fair in Kavniinnh. The Art Gallery is visited by all, and is only second in display of the gems of art to that at the Paris Exposition, although we doubt if those who witnessed the pictures there enjoyed it as much us those who are so fortunate as to inspect those.

Jttiia Insurance Company, HARTFORD, CONN., Jkcwkfokatkd, 1819. Capital, $3,000,000. WILLIAM Sill Lilt Is the Agent of this well known Company with which our citizens of the two past genera tions are familial. The Afina is proverbial for honest anil fair dealings with its patrons, and by tho Judicious management of its Hoard of Direc tors, they now have, in capital and surplus, assets amounting to $4,833,543 invested in tho beet securities of the country, most of which arc above their par value, and can he converted any day into money. Any Company is good when no (ire occurs, but those who insure in the AStnn may feel perfectly assured that ample meuus uro provided to meet losses If they occur. Tho pub ic are respectfully requested to call on Mr. Snr.AH and examine the assets of the Company. ap 30 121 Washington Item*- WajhinuToK, May 7.—Only Trumbull, of the doubtful Senator*, voted afaiußt tbe pub licatiop of the speeches made in retirement. The vote stood 20 to 28. The South Carolina Committee, with their protest against tbe Constitution, will appear bclure the Reconstruction Committee. These remonstrances, and their personal represent ation regarding the situation, attract the attention of the Conservative Republicans. The ceroplete city registration is a follows: Whites. 10,254; Blacks, 6.737. A Massachusetts member of Congress, to-day, remarked, in alluding to the im peaehers, that their friends were much disturbed. The House is in session, but is doing nothing. Gen. Uillem has made a report to Gen. Grant stating that the incomplete tables show a majority of over 1,200 for ratifica tion of tho Constitution in Arkansas. If his order had been complied with tho result would have been indisputable, but there are in tho counties of I’ulaski and Jefferson 1,900 votes which can’t be ascer tained for or against the Constitution. Where these irregularities occur each party charges the other with frauds. There is a deficiency of $87,000 for the administration of the Reconstruction acts in the Third Military District. It is reported that a joint resolution ordering President to send war vessels to Gult of St Lawrence to protect our fishing i nterost and demand reparation for certain injuries, is before Congress; in the debate l’ike said “who is afraid of war.” Resolu tion asks for nothing only that the luws shall be enforced. Amendment proposed to send vessels to coast of Ireland to take care of American interests there—rejected. Daring the debate Pike thought some one called him a coward, and he made some inaudible remark, for which be was called to order. Tariff question introduced. Pike wanted free trade for ship building materials. Eldridge asked if free trade was good for New England ship builders, why ’twas not good for Western laborers 7 After long discussion, somewhat jocular in character,but showing considerable sectional acrimony, it pussed by 92 to 39. Robinson offered a resolution expunging the impeachment resolution from the jour nal. The Speaker declared it not a privi‘ leged question. Robinson said ho would bring it up again ; it was a mere question of time ; it would ultimately be expunged. Stevens introduced a bill for the admis sion of Arkansas, which was ordered to be printed. Stevens’ bill provides as follows : Whereas, the people of Arkansas, in pursuance of an Aot entitled, “An Act to provide for the more efficient government of tbe rebel States,” passed March 2, 18G7, and the Acts supplementary thereto, have framed and adopted a Constitution of State government, which is Republican in form, and the Legislature of said State has duly ratified the amendment to the Constitution of the United States, proposed by the 39th Congress, aud known as Article Fourteen. Therefore, lie it enacted, That the State of Arkansas be entitled aud admitted to representation in Congress ns one of the States of the Union, upon the following fundamental con ditions. viz: that the Constitution of Arkan sas shall never be so amended or changed as to deprive any citizen or class of citizens of the United States of the right to vote who are entitled to vote by the Constitution herein recognized, except as a punishment for such crimes as are now felonies at com "ton law, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted. A delegation with the North Carolina Constitution, and several members of the Congressional delegation, have arrived. There was a heavy storm this afternoon, no western markets. IMPEICUMENT. The Court was prolonged in secret sessiou, it resulted in tbe adpotion of the following : That the Court will adjourn until Monday at eleven o’clock, when it will consider the rules and votes on the several articles which shall be taken at noon Tuesday without debate. Speeches shall be limited to fifteen minutes ou the entire subject, and not on each article. Members may file written opinions within two days after the vote on articles, to be published with the proceed ings. Motions regarding the form in which the Chief Justice shall put the question to Senators. Tabled. The stated adjournment to Monday was at the instance of Chase, who requires time to reflect on the proper manner of putting the question and other details. Foreign. London, May 7.—John Bright and other Liberals petition for a commutation of the punishment of the Fenian, Barrett, convicted of murder for connection with the Clcrkenwell explosion. Postponed.
