THE CS IS EAT F1UCAT PIlTSIItUGII. The Gazette of the l'2ih gives fuller details of the tonßajratioa. No i(ba cau bo given oa piper of the dljtre&i that prevails none forniaj of the ruin that it ha brought upon the city and thousands of its people. -We subjoin the Gazette's account, written on Friday, the 11th instant : We have thrown together, under different Leads, the principal incidents, with a list of the chief Fttircrers, of the great and ever memorable fire of last Thursday. Our readers can rtly upon the accuracy of our statements, and vie assure them we have no whit exaggerated. Many things that ought to be mentioned, are probably overlooked We have done V, V.. ..1 l l .1 . .

.... r . r ... I interior imsaisasier cm me ousmss ana prosperil of riUsburg: We have carefully inquired of many of our clearst headed business men, those most thoroughly con versant with the resources of the city, as to the pro ' bable effect of this disaster upon its prosperity, and . ...;,k ... r ,u L,,rth ,.r vuuiltu TV aus vua wnu ikiiun JCUC Ul lJJ Ofcl 111- i va ? the. merchants who were burnt out, the position of their circumstances, &,c, wa are fully convinced that though the commercial prospects of the city are terribly shaken, yet it is not totally prostrated, and in due time will rise above it all. Our large manufaclories are unlouched-the only mills of any importance which are burnt being the Globe Factory, which is the emallest in the city ; the Kensington Iron Works, and Bakewell &, Pcars's Glass Works. Various other small establishments were destroyed, but it is with great satisfaction we announce that the gTeat leading branches are comparatively untouched, and that business, so far as they are . concerned, will go on as usual. As'for our wholesale merchants in the grocery, queensware, and dry goods branches, who were burnt some of them will commence forthwith. Some are wholly ruined, many much crippled, but we bel.eve the majority can go on as usual, and yesterday they were busy getting places of business and offices. It is with heartfelt pleasure we observe the fortitude with which they bear their losses. There is no repining, no despair, no sullenness ; but a calm, determined spirit which must carry them up again. The effect will be to set us back for a moment, but we never had more confidence of the strength and spirit of our merchants to overcome it all in time. It must not be supposed that all the business portions of the city fere consumed. Most of tbe dry goods jobbers arc untouched. So of the hardware merchants, and a number of the heavy houses are out of the limits of the burnt district. And it fortuuately happens, too, that a large amount of groceries from the east for the city Lad not arrived. We repeat, therefore, that, though the city is terribly shaken, it is neither ruined nor to tally prostrated. The Appearance of Things. Yesterday morning1 we walked around the Burnt district. The appearance of things is awful nothing but an immense forest of walls, and chimneys is visible, and desolate heaps of brick and mortar. The fierce fire licked every combustible clean up. Nothing that would burn escaped. The wharf was covered with merchandise of every description, furniture, &.c. and many piles which were rolled out, a3 it was thought beyond the reach of the flames, were consumed. Files of burnt and partially consumed Coffee, Sugar, Nails, Iron, Cotton, Paper, Tea, &c. &c, "Were scattered along it. Of the JMonongahela bridge, nothing remains but a long line of burnt timber acros the river, between the naked piers, all over the hills piles of furniture, bedding, &c, are scattered. Along the streets the only valuable things visible were safes which the merchants took the precaution to haul out of their stores, and it was a" prudent foresight, inasmuch as many cf them proved of very little use. Among the ruins, crowds of people from other parts of the city and the country were wandering and gazing upon the scene For ourselves, we, more than once were lost, and had to look around for some well known land-mark to fix the locality. Incidents of the Fire. A fireman had his face burnt so raw that the blood ran from it. Mr. Malcolm Leech was on the top of his warehouse looking at the fire, and when coming down, was injured pretty severly by a fill. The only life lost, that " we heard of, was a poor woman in Third street. Amidst all this distress, there were those who added to the calamity by stealing. Among others, the Rev. George S. Holmes had about 300 stolen, which he bad gathered up by economy, on a Methodist preacher's salary. He had also & large number of valuable manuscripts, the labor of twenty years. -To show the rapidity of the fire, we may mention that a gentleman of our acquaintance arrived at the American Hotel about one o'clock, and leaving his trunk walked out to eee the fire which was then nearly a quarter of a mile off. In a short time he returned, and found the hotel in flames. He lost his trunk, with nearly all hit clothing and papers, and a consid erable sum ot money. r .i ...I t " i- e une- reason oi u.e rapiuuy wun , wine, uu- ".'i spread, is to be found in the extraordinary dryness ot i the weather for the two weeks past. We have not had a ehower of rain in that time, with one trifling exception. Every particle of wood in the houses of the city, was as dry as tindef. The First, or West XYarä. The business part of this ward, is almost entirely destroyed. The destruction in this ward extends from the corner of Wood and Water streets, up Wood street to Diamond Alley, from thence across to Fourth street, to the United States Bank, across Fourth street up to the Mayor's Office, across to Third street, and down the' south side of Third street to Ferry, diwn Ferry to Front street, up north sida of Front to Mar ket, down east side ot Market to W atcr, and up V ater to Wood, the place of beginning. In all this vast space, the only buildings left standing, are the Third Presbyterian Church, Johnson &, Stockton's, and the American printing offices, and tin; warehouse of the Globe Cotton Factory. The Second, or South Ward. The destruction in this ward. ncarly the oldest part of the city, and one of the mo3t populous of the five wards, is complete and overwhelming. It is left almost without inhabitants, only two or thr?c dwellings remaining. -, The Individual Jesses. The losses of some individuals and houses are enormous, ranging from 8-3,000 to -21)0,005. Thus, one firm of wholesale grocers, the heaviest holders of sugar, molasses, &.C., in the city, and also PWacio f e foldings i which vthey did business, cannot have lost less 5 n from to 8100,000. There is the Monongahek HousJ als3 which coit j$2Q0,CX) including the furniture. In mZPJ instances merchants not enly lost stocks worth 8iC,000, ' . . .1 t 1 j .it put ajdo ineir aweiun-j ritmsea anu every aouar worth of furniture and clothes they possessed. S-iid pne, I have lost $33,0C0f and bare now but one dollar in the worjd. Toe Insurance Offices We believe, are totally ruined. We learn from a reliable source that the Fireman's Insurance Office Jiaa lost ;! 10,000, and will pay about 40 cents on the dollar. The Fire and Navigation Company have lost .'200,000, and will pay the whole amount. The Penn Office we have heard nothing of, but believe it is ruined, and will pay only a small per centage on the dollar.. The Mutual OiFice, we understand will Dar all its risks. Losses 5,000. We regret D learn that Samuel Kingston, Ej.,has been missing since the fire was raging on Thursday afternoon. He was last seen froiu iuto his burnin;r oSce. It is feared be is lost. ' Great solicitude was felt r some time to know whether the vaulu of the Bank of Pittsburgh had stood the brunt. Yesterday forenoon they were opened and found unharmed. All the papers, specie, etc, were moved into the old U. S. Bank, where the Bank now does business. Kensington. This flourishing adjunct of the city is well nigh annihilated. I he course of the fire was extraordina XT. The last lar-je buildinz in the city, this side of it was the lame new Steel Works-of -Messrs. Jones &. Ouif'. noticed in another place. When the .fire reached this it dipprd d-mn a steep bank into the eanal. and consumed the Lock fender's liouse, and then rla.nrr. it wi-nt comoletelv over a number of frame 'huildinT on the orDOsite bank, inrludin the. work tettovA of Mr. Tomlirnon. the contractor of the Iron Steam Shin on the stocks.

The grca'.cet h?3 was in the Pal

Loss or Lire in the late Fike. It is now frared that mauy persons lo"t. their lives in 1 he reemt eon flotation. On Saturday we mentioned that S. Kingston, Esq., and Juhn hmon, were missing, and that tears were entertained for their safety. It i now pietty certain that they were turn ed Ml. K. at the houe of hi jon-in-law, W. R. Lecky aud Mr. J. at McKenna 1 auction room or in Pipctown. A gill employed in the house of Mr. Lecky, above named, who was supposed to hare been asi.tin Mr. Kingston in saving goods, is also believed to be burned. Maigaret Denning, a woman liviDg at George Belle's, is missing believed t be buined. Mis. Jane W'yatt, an sged woman, who lived near the corner cf Second and Ross streets is also supposed to hare Leen burned. Mrs. Magtoue, an aged womai who lived near Grant street Mm. S. Brook, woman who lived in Tlird street. Within the limits of the second waid, (here are said to be but fifteen houses standing. In tL-at ward alone we suppose about 3000 peisons have been foieeJ to seek new dwelling) of these many wie duvt-u from their homes so u tJenlv that they had not t me to save their furniture, and very many of them have saved nothing but the clothe that weie upon their peisons. Commendable Liberality. We understand that as soon as the people of Wheeling heard of the great calamity that had befallen our city, they shipped a bundled barrels of flour for the relief of those who had been left destitute by the fire. Between foity and fifty barrels hare already been received. They also sent a lare quantity of bacon and po tatoes. This is the right kind of sympathy, and we can as sure the citizens of Wheeling that their piompt benevolence is properly appreciated by the unfortunate nuuerers, as well as thoe of our citizcus who were fortunate to escape tbe terrible effects of the fire. ----- FROM OREGON.--Oregon, according to the following acconnt, taken from a letter in the Peoria Register, is an uncommonly fertile country. The letter is written by Mr. Carver, one of the emigrants. "The harvest is just at hand, and such crops of wheat, barley, oats, peas and potatoes are seldom, if ever, to be seen m the States, that of wheat in partic-ular--the stalks being in many instances as high as my head, the grains generally much larger--I would not much exagerate [sic] to say they are as large again as those grown east of the mountains. The soil is good and the climate most superior, being mild the year round, and very healthy, more so than any country I have lived in the same length of time. Produce bears an excellent price--pork 10 cents, beef 6 cents, potatoes 50 cents, wheat $1 per bushel. These articles are purchased at the above prices with great avidity by the merchants for shipment generally to the Sandwich Islands and Russian settlements on this continent, and are paid for mostly in stores and groceries, the latter of which is the product of these islands, particularly sugar and coffee, of which abundant supplies arc furnished. Wages for laborers are high--common hands are getting from one to two dollars per day, and mechanics from two to four dollars per day. It is with difficulty men can be procured at these prices, so easily can they do better on their farms. The plains are a perpetual meadow, furnishing two complete new crops in a year, spring and fall, the latter remaining green through the winter. Beef is killed from the grass at any season of the year. If you have any enterprise left, or if your neighbors have any, here is the place for them. Dr. McLaughlin has just commenced a canal around the Willhamette [sic] Falls, which he expects to complete in two years, at a cost of thirty thousand dollars. Our Legislature (the lower House of which I have the honor to be speaker) which has just finished its session, granted the Doctor a charter for twenty years--he entering into an agreement to complete the canal for boats of thirteen feet in width to pass in safety; the whole to be completed in two years as above stated. He has a number of hands now engaged in its construction, and no doubts are entertained of his ability to complete it. He is constructing a large flouring mill, with four run of burs, which will be ready for business this fall. He has already two saw mills in operation at the falls. Every thing is flourishing in this country. ----- TH ClIIVALRT. Brownlow, the fighting parson of the Jonesborough Whig, who is now travelling among Ü,e &uth Carolinians, gives the following account of those immense personages : "The real South Caroli nian' assumes to be a man of much rnrportance, and in his buggy or sulky, he throws himself back like an English lord, sitting astride his seat, and sticking his herds out in imitation of the man riding a comet, in Elton's Comic Almanac T Io matter where you meet with the travelling South Carolinian, he always has his whip in his hand, a cigar in his mouth, and upon his countenance an air of great self-importance. The Postmaster General advertises that he will re ceive proposals, until the 10th of Slay, for furnishing fifteen thousand balances lor the various post-othces in the United States. They are to be constructed on a plan best calculated to ascertain the weigh! of letters and other mailable matters, under the post omce. law of 3d of luarch,. ISlo, and will be required to nidi l.ir N..r.nn on,l tint, rrltmn wairrht Vwit H'Cntl hi IT caie u imi vumc, auu auy giu t. ..v an ounce and ei;iht ounces. The Anti-Hesters. The anti-rent troubles in Rcnsclacr and other counties in New York, appear to be on the increase. Every week brings fresh tidings of outbreaks, violations of the laws, and assaults upon public officers, and peaceable citizens. They are rotni)elled to kceD a lame ruard around the prisons in which any of tbe anti-renters are connneu, in. oruer to secure Uicm. lins w a aepiurawe &iaie or auaira. The Cherokee Advocate, alluding to a law before the Legislature of JUisjoun P secure to marnea wo- to property belonging to them before mw "e"" " amaze, boasts ? "Lcroccs uave uci-u vv-aiu-erably in advance of many of their white brethren in this respect tho ncbts oi meir women iiavin": oeuu amply secured almos; ever euicc uiey naa wnuca laws The great foot race, at New Orleans, on the 30th of March, (Sunday,) was won by John Gildersleeve, of New York, "who ran the ten miles in 59 rminutes and 50 seconds. There were but four entries for the race - Gildersleeve, Archer of New Orleans, Thomas Ellsworth of Boston, and an unknown person in a mask, who gave out at the end of the first mile. The purse was $500. Ohio Eeef for England. Mr. Norman C. Bald win,' says the Cleveland Herald, has packed, during thr nnst neason near that city. 13. 138 head of cattle, making over 5,100 tierces of beef expressly for the Enirli-.h market. The cattle are cut up by an English packer of forty-four years' experience Ivnirtrn vd Piracv. Slave Trade. Ca pt. John S.

Claims to Office. We often hear and read of claims tö rffice. "We are told, and especially by partisan newspapers, that certain persons have claims upon the Governor of a State, or the President of the United States, for an appointment to some office. "And what are the foundations of such claims ! We are gravely told that one man has a claim to odlcial appointment, because be rendered essential services in an election ; that another has such claim, because he has always been a member of the party, a "Whig," or a "Democrat that a third has such claim, because, in addition to his uniform, consistent "Whiggery" or Democracy," he is iKor. haa bern mifrH-tfinat in kni, ., j

therefore needs a salary ; that a fourth has euch claim, because he is incompetent to any private business, cannot take care of b s family or himstlf, and Lj therefore fit for rkthing but an oäice. " We protest against this whele doctrine of claims. Offices are created for the people, and not fir the offi cers : as the instruments f.ir t business, and not as the sources of profit to individuals. When a custom bouse was esiablishd t XT-o. York, Philadelphia, Boston, or other port, the people wanted a revenue, and they decided, through their legislative representatives, that it should be raised by taxes on foreign merchandise. Accordingly they provided, through these legislative representatives, a custom-house with all its machinery -f regulations, for collecting such taxes and transmitting them to the treasury : and as taxes must be collected bv individu als, officers of the custom house were appointed i and as individuals will not work, either for themselves or society, without compensation, salaries for such officers were nccessaay, and were ordered accordingly. According to this, which is true cf all governmental offices, an office is an instrument for transacting that business of the people in their collective capacity which they cannot transact collectively, and an officer is a person hired to transact a particular portion of this business. In all this, where is the claim of an individual to an office 1 Under what obligation is the community to employ one person more than another, to transact anypoition of its business 1 If the community selects A for this purpose, is B wronged ! And if it selects neither, and disjienses with the business, is either wronged. If a printer nceus a dozen journeymen, can any dozen of tire printing trade present a claim upon him for employment ! He may have sufficient reasons. for preferring some other dozen, and certainly has the liberty of choice. By the same rule. it a community need a collector of taxes, it has the right to choose, and no person can urge a claim upon it to be chosen. How preposterous would be the claim of a tailor upon all his 'neighbors to make all their garments! Ufa lawyer to conduct all their lawsuits ! Of a physician to advise and treat them in all their maladies ! And if tbe claim of each upon all his neighbors would be preposterous, how much more so would be a similar claim upon the whole community ! And if a claim of any person upon a whole community, to be its tailor, lawyer or physician be absurd, equally so is a similar claim to be its collector, sheriff, attorney, marshal, judge, navy agent, secretary, auditor, surveyor, or anything else. ' Having thus far exhibited the absurdity of all such claims, Ave will examine some of the grounds upon whica uiey are usually urged. We are told that this or that man should have an office, because he has rendered important services in an election, and indeed was chiefly instrumental in electing. the appointing power. ' V bat has lie done ! He has timde fifty speeches to public meetings ! He has written a volume of articles for the newspapers ! He has subscribed liberally to the expenses of the election ! He bos carried hundreds of voters to the polls, 8nd secured their votes tor the right ticket ! Has he done all this under a sense of duty to the community 1 Under a sense of his moral obligation to labor for a good government! Then he has faithfully discharged his duties as a citizen and a patriot, and has his reward in the approbation of conscience, and in the security of his own rights and. those of his fellow "taen, obtained in tliat very government for which he has labored. He has his reward in accomplishing his object, and in the reflected benefit of the good example which he has set, and needs no other. Has he done all this' to gratify avarice cr ambition ! To obtain the salary or lienor of an office ! Then has he forgotten his obligations to society und acted under motives exclusively selfkh. -Docs he deserve "Office for tbisT H.is'he licen faithful to the community in forgetting Iiis obligations to it, and in thinking .only of bis personal advancement 1 He has not, and therefore does not deserve an office. He has exhibited want of fidelity in the relations of citizen and patriot, and thus furnishing a reason for belief in his infidelity as an officer. And in making his speeches, writing his essays, and carrying voters to the polk, has he ever misrepresented or concealed the truth ? Has he said or done any tiling to gain an election, which a rigid conscience would not justify If he has drJne this under patriotic, and not under selfkh motive,' still has he done wrong, deliberately of ijjnorantly, and therefore cannot be implicitly trusted as an officer. .He may do wrong in office, as he has done wrong out of it. . But he has been unfortunate, is poor, and therefore needs a salary; If this be a sufficient reason for a.p; pointment to ofTice, no community would' suffer for want of officers, for the unfortunate and the poor are hound everywhere. But while we admit the obliga tion of society to provide for those w ho cannot provide for themselves, we deny its obligation to select these very persons for its agents, the transactors of its business. If misfortune or poverty gave a claim to office, the claim would be proportionate to the dfffree of these circumstances; and hence the greitcr their degree, the greater would be the qualifications of the sunerers for public business, and a President or Governor, in seeking persons for officers, would be bound to select the poorest and most unfortunate, and not the ablest : and thus a test of qualification would be the loss of property, health or faculties, and not the possession of brains. . But he is incompetent to provide for himself or us family, and therefore should have an official sala i. Btit if he is incompetent to provide for himself, cart he provide for a community ! It his own busi ncss be more than h can manage, can he manage that for a State 1 He requires a guardian, arid therefore is not a competent guardian of the public: An invalid. soldier or Bailor, it qtnlihcd tor otticc, mar have a claim to It over other3, if such cl lim be allowed in any case, for he has become disabled in the service of his country, and may therefore claim its support. And the community, bound to give mm bread in some mode, acts judiciously in giving him an opportunity of earning that bread by a continuance ot public service. lut m no oincr cases uo we au mit the slightest obligation upon the community to srivc or .TS V nv rvfrvrns I'hiln.

Being greatly alar hied st this, I applied to a physician, bit be said be thou cht ha could do bait little for me except give ne some Mercury pills, which I refused to tnke, feeling satisfied that they could do me no good j many other remedies were then procured by my w ife and friends, and none did me any good, and the Dikuiici or slooo and cosairTio still continued every few days, and at bist became so offensive 1 could scarcely breathe, t was also seized with a v'-olent cough, which at times caused me to raise much more I lood than I bad done before, and my disease continued in this way, still growing worse until Feb ruary, w hen all bone of my recovery was given up, and my friends all thought I would die with a ciLtnno eopsrxmoi.
