Pic-kens gives the following*descryition of
the grtflit LomAon fire, occurred upon a
wintjy night, Septemluu 9 3, 160 G : ‘lt broke
out # at adaaker's shop near London Bridge, on
th’e spot on which the monument now stands as
a remembrance of these raging flames. 9 IP
spread and spread, and burnt, aryl byrnt, f"r
three days. The nights wefe lighter than the
days; in.tkc; d#iy time there was an inimgwse
cloud of smoke, and in the night time there
\£as a £teat tower of fire mounting up into tjie
” sky, which lighted the wlytle country landscape
fijr ten ixMes around. Showers hoto ashes,
o rose iirto th air aifu on distant places ; fly
ing sparks carried the conflagration to grgat
distances, and kindled it in twenty new spots
at a time ; churclf steeples fell down with tre
mendous crashes; crumbled into cin
ders by the hundredsind the thousands. r lfie
summer had been intensely hot # and tiry, the
streets were vetoy narfow, flnt? the houses most
ly built of wood and planter. Nothing cold
stop ting tremendous fire hut tlie*want yf Louses
to burn ; nor did it stop until the whole way
from fihe Temple Bar was a des*rt
composed of jhe ashes of thirteen thousand
housfls and eighty-nine cTiurches. This was a
terrible visitation at t!?e time, and occasioned
greflt loss and .suffering t the two bund r*l i
thousand burnt out people who were obliged to
lie in tlfe fields under the open night sky, or in
hastily made huts of mud and straw, whilc°the
lanes and roads were rendered impassible by
carts, wliich® liyf been broken down jis they j
tried to save jlieir goods. But the fire was a
great blessing to the d?ty afterwards, for it arose
from*its ruins.very much imprc* cd— more
regularly, more witftly, more cleanly and care

tfhe following extracts from., the speech of Mr.
Bell, delivered iu the Senate on the 24th ana 2oth of
May, 1854, proves conclusively that hnercccrd is not
tainted with the d?lngej'G*is heresy.T>f Squatter Sov
! ereiguty,°and that he occupies what may be termed
T Southern ground in o reference toth* toleration or
prohibition of sfoverg in the Territories. The only
j constitutional manner in this question can bo
settled o is indicated the declaration of Bjll c
“that the peopie of a Territory, #/jcn they come to
farm their fa ate Constitution, ANL) THEN ONLY, were °
qualified to establish their domesti&vistitutfont” !
We quote Mr. Bell: m . * * 0
“As to th® principle of squatter sovereignty, I °
% isli further to say, that in late contest between gen
eral Taylor ntyl the honorable ami distinguished
Senator from Michigan, [(fen? Cass,] it ftas distict
ly brought forward as° an issue befefre the jieople of
Tennessee. .* * * * * ® In
that *>ntest, in comtnon with the South generally,
they [the people of Tennessee] repudiated the idea,
’ ,that a handful, or any number of inhabitants, in a
Territory of the United should have thepow
£ granted to then! by Congress of regulating their
domestic institutions and at their discretion, to°dciyz
tfl one section of the UnioiPtlie power
to enjoy, his right of property in slaves. We were
not prepared to reverse otid set aside
established practice and. doclrines@of the Govern
ment, from J 789 to that tigie. We could seeno pea#c,
n®qui*t, no end of agitation that was to result front
such o a course. We thought that if a f'cri itorial
Legislature shbuld, in one or two years, establish or
abolish slavery, the agitation of the question of sla
very woulfl still go on. JVe, in Tennessee. at® that
time believed we were advocating principles and
doctrines on this subject approved in all the south
crjuStatcs. The principle then contended for was
that the people of a Territory, u hen they came to firm
their State Constitution, unV thPn only, were qualified
to establish tljeir domestic institutions.” ®
