13?" Poetry, by "Jtate,'' shall appear in our next
J3P Several correspondents inform us that the
verses published by us yesterday over the signature
of Anna, are not original, having appeared some ten
years since under the title ol "The Folse One.” We
may have met them before, but if we have ever read
them- they had entirely escaped our memory. It
would be very unreasonable to expect, in these days
that an Editor should be familiar with the fugitive
poetry that deluges the literary world. Anna is en
titled, at least, to the credit of good taste in her se
lection. But if she holds literary larceny in the light
in which we regard it, she will be apt to prove tbe
force of the aentenoe which closes each stanza ofthe
pilfered poem.
Death of James McLaws.—We regret to an
nounce, says the Augusta Republic of Thursday, the
death of an excellent and worthy citizen, James
McLaws, Esq., who expired yesterday morning at his
residence In this city. Mr. McLaws has held the of
flee of Clerk of the Superior Court of this county for
many years, and waa well known to ail our citizens
as a man of uprightness anh probity.
cr Messrs. Cabew & Hopkins, have (established
in Charleston a manufactory for the making of
Southern Negro Shoes and Southern Leather. We
wish them, says the Courier, entire and complete suc
cess in their praiseworthy undertaking. Such enter
prises deserve the support and patronage of every
friend of Southern Rights.
‘ vw We give place in another column to the com
municatioli of "Chatham." It is from the pen of a
well known and highly respected citizen, whoso name
would add weight to his opinions and views.
The Fibst Snow.—In New-York on Sunday
night last about ten o'clock, the first snow of the sca-
sonfell. It was accompanied by a higl, wind, which
blew it away as last as it fell, so that tbe streets were
scarcely whitened:
DESTRUCTIVE EIRE.
FROM FIFTEEN TO TWENTY BUILDINGS
B TRUTH!
About half.past 8 o'clock laBt evening a fire broke
out in a small house in Bay Lane, in the Eastern part
of tho city, owned by Mrs. Maktuew, and occupied
by Daniel Sullivan . In this building several
families resided, some of whom were sick. The
fire originated, as we understand, by accident. A child
took a lighted candle up atairs—when It reached
the top of the steps, Itmado ainisttep and threw the
candle forward, which fell upon sonic loose cotton,
and immediately ignitiug it, set the bed on fire, and
in u few moments the building, was in flames. So
rapid was tho progress of tbe fire, that the inmates
barely escaped with their lives, losing ull they had.
The fire soon spread to the adjoining tenements
which were all of wood, and although the firemen
were immediately on the gronnd, and used all their
efforts to subdue it. the adjacent buildings on Bay
Lane, were all consumed except the one occupied by
Mr. Seaman, on comer of East Broad and Bay Lane,
and owned by the estates of Mrs. Wohthinoton
and Mr. Walte* Smith, and one small building
owned by Mrs Snider.
On Bryan street, all the houses in the block were
destroyed except two small buildings on tbe corner
of that street and Houston, owned by Mrs. Snider.
In this block were several buildings owned by Mr a.
Martiiew, Mrs. Snider, and the estates of Mrs.
Worthington and Mr. Walter Smith.
On the block between Bryan and St. Julian streets,
all thqbuildings were destroyed excepttliB dwelling
house owned by Cnpt. John Dennis.
On East Broad-stg two large two-story buildings, oc
cupied as dwellings and stores, took fire and were
soon enveloped in Hamcs. At this time the wind
sprung up irom the South West, and the fire burned
with a rapidity defying the efforts of those who la
bored to stay the flames. Conspicuoe among our
firemen, we noticed a party of some forty sailors,
who tendered good servico by using a hook and
chain, in tearing down the burning buildings.
The principal sufferers are Mrs. Marthew, who
lost two buildings. Mrs. Jane Snider, a widow
lady, who lost five or six buildings. The estate of
Mrs. Margaret C.Worthington, and tho Estate of
Mr. Walter Smith which lost nine or tnfi buildings,
Mr. Martin Ahnow, which losttwo building's, and
Mr. Sanders, who lost his Grist Mill.
The occupants of the houses, whose names we
could not ltarn, have lost nearly every thing.
Thelittle furniture and property which was saved
is lu a damaged condition. In many instances the suf
ferers are poor, and their loss will be severely ielt,
particularly at this season of the year, and wetrust
our citizens will contribute liberally to the relief
of those who have suffered by this calamity.
In the present scarcity of dwellings it will be dif
ficult for those who have been thus suddenly render
ed homeless to provide themselves with shelter, and
wo would suggest that his Honor the Mayor tender to
the sufferers the free use of the house on the Spring-
field Tract, recently purchased by the city from the
Stiles estate, and which is now unoccupied and which
would accommodate many of them, until they enn be
better providad for.
Since writing the above we leara that a sub-
cription has already been set on foot, headed by one
of our wealthy citizens with tho handsome contribu
tion of $200. Such liberality is worthy the highest
commendation.
in Congress and the North, will see that, as her Repre.
sentativea have spoken in the halls of Congress, so
the South will act. They, the majority In Congress,
und the North, will realize when perhaps too late,
that there is a linn beyond which foiboarance ceases
to be a virtue, and upon that majority and the North,
will rest all the consequences that may follow.
But if the people, in Convention, shall solemnly de
clare that no aggression upon the rights of the South
have been inflicted, that by the recent acts of Con
gross, equal justice has been.'donu to tho South—that
the Constitutiop has been maintained in its purity—
that the Fugitive Slave Bill is a boon, a gracious boon
to the South, for which the South should be very,
very thankful—ireSommend submission, meek sub
mission, und wait,quietly wait—the next move of that
tyrannical majority and overbearing North, and re
turn to their hollies—then will tbe declarations of her
Senators, and Representatives be recognised as mere
hectoring, tho solemn enactments of her Legislature
ns empty bravado, and the State of Georgia become
a bye-word, a (bing, at which to point the finger of
contemptand acorn. CHATHAM.

The Great Boston Fowl Exhibition,—The se
cond annual show ofthe New England Society for
the improvement of Domestic Poultry took place in
the Public Gardens of Boston on the I2th, 13th and
Hth inst It is stated that never before in thlB coun
try, and scarce ever before in any country, have so
many fowls been gathered together for exhibition.—
More than twelve thousand specimens were presen
ted to the ey o of the spectator on Wednesday morning
beneath Wright's huge tent, and hundreds of belated
fowls were constantly arriving by express, wagon,
wheelbarrow and porter back. There wero the su
periour sizes of Shanghai, the prolific Poland, and
the palatable Dorking, the gorgeous vestments ofthe
Golden Pheasant, &c. &c. Daniel Webster had r. fino
pair of white Swans, very large, each one being more
than a twenty pounder.

‘‘LIVERPOOL, NOV. 1.—Anxiety respecting the
etata of political matters on the Continent has had
an unfavorable effect on the Cotton market this week

The people ot the State of Georgia, by their repre*
centatives, will soon, meet iu Convention,and the ques
tion now is, not what that Convention will do, but
whatitmustdo. That it ought to do, and will do
something, I believe, is admitted by all parties. The
nature and character of that sometbing is the ques
tion. Both parties admit that by the late acts of
Congress, there have been aggressions upon therights
of the South, and it is intimated by some, with every
prospect of still further aggressions. An eminent
Senator has gone so far as to declare “with an unfal
tering conviction of our wrongs, which reflection
only serves to confirm, and a lively apprehension of
further aggressions, which each day’s intelligence
but tends to strenghen &c." Another faithful and
true representative declares, in answer to a com
munication from citizens of an adjoining State, “that
justice has nol been done to the South and I see much
that threatens her, not only in the distant future, but
in the impending hour, all ofthe signs of the North
painting to r.easless hostile agitation." These declar
ations, from such men, cannot fail to convince
the most sceptical that the North und tho majoiity
In Congress, have but just commenced the war.
Aggression means wrong—wromr, a withholding
ofjuaticc, or a depriving of right. Wrong, a with
holding of justice, a depriving of right, infers two
things—redress or submission. Tbe history ofthe post
in all 1 countries show that submission to aggression
upon inherent, or constituted rights, however iusig -
uificant in the beginning,lead essentially to the severe
eat tyranny, the most complete degradation. Wit
ness the state of Ireland, Poland, Hungary,&c. Our
own revolutionary struggle and eventual success
was the result of a quarrel which had its beginning
over a cup of tea ; had our forefathers submitted to
drink that cup ns the tyrants dictated, where
would have been this Union ? But they resisted, bold
ly, ; manfully resisted this encroachment upon their
inherent, constituted rights, aud the world realized
the result.
Our State Legislature, in solemn assembly, after
due and serious deliberation, uttering the voice of
the people, declared that if tho Congress of the Uni
ted States passed certain acts they would consider
the same ns nggressiona upon the constituted rights
of the South, aud that tlio people of the State should
meet in Convention to say what shall be done in ref
erence to said acts of Congress. Our Senators and
Representatives in Congress loudly, strongly, vehe
mently declaimed against tho constitutionality of
such acts, aud boldly declared their denunciation by
the South. Was all this a mere voice, a letting off of
steam, un ebulition of “Dutch courage." a mere ef
fort at speech making, tho inflations o~f little-minded
politicians, who would burst themaelves in order to
rank among the great of the land? Or was it the hon
est convictions of true honorable, high -minded men?
II the latter, then the Convention must do something.
It should insist first of all (if not too late) that theline
of 36.30, should he recognised, and rendered perms-
nent.ua guaranteed to the South by the Missouri Com-
promise—.that tha Fugitive Slave Bill should be
strengthened by fu rther enactments, rendering its evn-
sien or resistance impracticable, and ils execution
more efficient,that all further discussion in the halls of
Congress on the subject of slavery muBt now and for
ever cease—that ns the citizens of the non-sinvehold;
ing States connive at the invcigbling of our proper
ty, and prevent its recovery, that we also by solemn
Legislative action interdict, by heavy taxation or oth
erwise, the products of those States, when within our
limits, or declare the same a* forfeited to the use ol
the State, until our property anil our righta are re-

| NEW-YORK, NOV. 18,1850.
The murder ii Dey-sL caused considerable excite
ment, and the plice has since been visited daily | by
hundreds of persons. The murderer is suffering
much from the injuries he received, and still adheres
to the first storj, that ho was attacked first, and
fought in self defence. No one believes it however,
ls the others coald have no motive in attacking him,
a poor destitute Individual. Tho eons are still-alive,
and this morning hopes were entertained of thoir
recovery. It is very doubtful, however.
The fine weather has departed, and it is now dark,
bleak and cheerless. There wuia slight tall of snow
last night, but itdidn't amount to much—it melted as
soon as it touched the ground.
The city is very healthy—thedeatlislast week num
bered 290; men 64, women 62, boy's 92 and girls 72
It was rumored last week that tbe bodies ot Count
d’Oraoli and wiloJ(Mugaret Fuller) and child had been
fouud at Fire Island: it -a not so, it was a stupid and
unfeeling hoax.
I mentioned the fact of young Inman obtain
ing a heavy verdict against the Williamsburg
and Brooklyn Ferry Companies for injuries received.
On Saturdny a young girl obtained $2000 damages
against tho New Jersy Railroad and Transportation
Company, tor injuries to her feet on landing from
the ferry boat, and which caused amputation to be
necessary. These companies stand poor chances
with juries when the circumstances will justify heavy
damages.
We ure to have a temporary Bishop it seems,
instead of Bishop Onderdonk ; the election is to
take place on the 27th inst. Dra. Seabury and
Whitehouae, are spoken of as likely to be candi
dates , one being of high, the other of tho low church
party. The two cannot agree I hear, and how the
difficulty is to be settled I cannot imagine.
Archbishop Hughes and suitleft Europe on Saturday
in the Baltic. He proceeds to Rome,l learn. By tbe by
there is an ordination to-day of two converts to tbo
church—Jno. Murry Forbes, D. D.,and Tbos. Preston.
Tuey were made deacons on Friday, and today will
become Priests. We rarely hear of such instances
in this city. Talking of such matters, I may state
thut the dwedenborgiansnow occupy the church for
merly preeidi d ov»r by Dr. Hawks.
Another murder waa committed on Saturday
evening on board the steamer Isaac Newton, iu Alba
ny, just ns she was about to start for New-York
Two men it seems, deck passengers, quarreled about
a stool, which one insisted upon having, and the
other refused to give up, whereupon one seized a
knife, and without further ceremony stabbed the
other in the abdomen. Tho yound is believed to be
mortal.
Jenny Lind's time is getting short here, and it is
well thut it is so, lor there is a very great fulling of
in the attendance at the Concerts. On Friday there
were whole ranges of seats entirely empty, in the
principal tier, and a man in llarnum's employ was
very busy bringing persons from the cheaper parts
of the Hall, and filling them up. This did not look
well, and shows how much reliance is to be placed in
the newspapers, who cry out “continued excite
ment" “undiminished attraction", Sic.
The umount of tolls received on the New-York
Canals this season,[thus far, is $2,801,674. This is
not so much ns last year, but it is nevertheless a con
siderable sum for merely one line, and affords some
idea of the immense traffic between the East and the
West. The lai gest amount ol'tolls ever received was
in the season of 1847, when they realized the enor
mous sum of $3,852,451.
We have had all sorts of Panoramas exhibited
here since Barnard first commenced with his gigan
tic one of the Mississippi. Many of them were per-
act daubs; others were only indifferently good and
n few were meritorious. The strangest idea for a
Panorama, however,is that now on exhibition here
the Pilgrims Progress of Bunyan. The conceit of the
thing is the drollest part of it; for it is of great in
terest, and will, I should think, render that work
once more in general demand C1IARLEMAC.
