As to the motive, of the'Senalo for the refusal to commend' Harrison, Mr. Cushing is altogether at fault. Ho says it-grew out of **a groundltt* and malieiov* attack an the integrity of Gen, Harrison, by perron* concent4 in tone of the army contract,” d-t. - Harrison himself declares that the .role against him was the consequence of the opinion entertained of his "dfmerit$” by the majority of the Senate, and having reference to his conduct of the campaign for which the honor was claimed at the bands of the Senate.— Qlobe. ' -

The National Intelligencer, brings forth a letter of Mr. Cushing of the House of Representatives, denying that Harrison's name was‘struck out of the resolution proposing thinks and & gold medal to Shelby and Harrison for the success at the Thames. Mr. Cushing says; “The allegation, that the thanks of Congress were refused to him is founded upon the authority of an imperfect, and therefore erroneous, paragraph in ooh of the newspapers of the day, and upon the artifice of suppressing moat of tbo material facts of the case as they appear in the journals of the Senate and House of Representatives.”

Mr. Cushing then goes on to give the history of the resolution of 1816, as follows:

Pleasant Township.

“The resolution was discussed in Committee of the Whole, and it is the action in this Committee of the Whole, separated from the responsible action of the Senate itself, which is unfairly cited alone, by those to whom your letter refers, aaovidence against the bouorof General Harrison. 'The journals of -the Senate show that, instead of striking out the name of General Harrison from the resolution, the Senate, by a vote of ayeq and noes, refused to concur In the amendment of the Committee of tho Whole to that effect; that is to say, the Senate, in' the most format manner, expressly rejected the proposition to strikeout tho name of General Harrison.. After which, suspending for the present a final de- ' cision on the resolution, the Senate ordered it to be recommitted,' without change, trftbe Committee on Military Affairs.for futber consideration. TTbii was the 30th of April, 1S10.

THERE will be a meeting of the Democratic Republican citizens of Pleasant township at Mcorefield on Saturday tbe 11th of April next, at 1 o’clock, P.

Dram the LoutmBe Gaictfc AWFUL CALAMITY! A most disastrous fire—thirty-eight large and , heavy establishments burnt out. -Half mil* Hon of property destroyed*' % - On Thursday night, about tbe “dead o’ night,“ the most calamitous fire occurred that ever visited our city. It baa beensuggesled*'.hatit was the work of an incendiary, who bore some ill-will to John Haw kins, in whose furniture establishment on Pearl street,the fire was first discovered. Tbe wind was high and the flames were borne onward with fearful rapidity. A large)portion of the merchandize which was removed from the stores, was burned up in Main street, although tho width'of tho street is at least ninety feet from banquette, to banquette. In some instances, it was with great difficulty that lives could be'saved. They were frequently in the most imminent danger. There seemed to be at one time, an unaccountable apathy on the part of die citizens not connected with tbe. firs companies. Although the goods were re-moved-from the buildings where the most danger was to be apprehended from falling walls, it was then suffered to remain and take fire and be consumed, although there were bands enough idle and to; their pockets to have saved thousands and tens of thousands of dollars, We hear surmises "that the Insurance Offices of our City and the agencies have suffered severely.,; Our merchants are generally sure-footed and guard themselves against accidents—and in proportion to -their care, the Insurance Offices must suffer* We annex the names of the sufferers with a feeble, estimate which is far below the mark. The fairebt portion of our city is a waste of ruins. The largest business houses are destroyed. The time* arelsuch that we cannot hope that.it may

Jjist of Letters

Tbe Telegraph asserts that the charge against General Harrison, of voting to sell white men for debt, was "seriously brought forward for the first time in 1S36.” This is a slight mistake, Judge, and the very paper in which you make tbe assertion contains evidence that the charge was publicly made, in newspapers as early as December, 1821, just fifteen/ years before, and was considered sufficiently-serious by tbe General, at least, to induce him to It—and a beautiful reply it Is, too, as our readers'shall see next week. The writer of this / who was a resident of Cincinnati at the time, is under the impression that the charge was again brought up against the General, in 1822, when he was a candidate for Congress, and that it contributed not a little to Itia defeat; for he was beaten .by James W. Gazlay, aman who had been in the country comparatively but a short lime, and whose claims upon the suffrages of the people were inferior to hundreds of others who might have been named. If we are not mistaken it was again brought up when the General was a candidate for a State Legislature in opposition to a pedlar'oj gingerbread, from a wheel-barrow in the morJtriiipocc. Whether it was or not, it is sufficient to know that the pedler was eleoled over him.—Allan [J7/.] Com. Gazelle. .
