fy We yesterday had the pleasure of a call from our cotemporary, Mr. Overall, the talented ediUr of the 5Iobile Evening News, who is in our city ou a brief visit to his many friends. We have much pleasure in" welcoming to our city Mr. William J. A.

Mr. Hughes, we perceive it stated iu the Mobile Uegister, will attend, while he remains here, to affairs connected with thnt journal, with which he is connected. We are satlRlied he will meet with all the personal aud business courtesy bespoken for him. lie is staying at the St.

Charles Hotel. Relief ok as Americas Artist. We see that in New York a meeting of the friends of Thomas Doughty, the gEeat laudscape painter, now suffering with a disease which it is feared will prove incurable, was held lately at the Astor House, the poet Bryant in the chair. It was thought not advisable to hold an ekhibi tion at present of Mr. Doughty's works, but to start a subscription for his benefit.

All who may be desirous of contributing to this fund have been requested to send their subscriptions toW. C. Bryant, Evening Post OtBce, to Henry Peters Gray, 7(W Broadway, or to D. Huntington, Appleton's Building, 348 Broadway. This is melancholy and, we must say, reflects sadly upon the taste, liberality and patriotism of the country, of which, when poor Dughty is under the sod that must soon cover him, his works will be the pride and the boast.

Here is a man who has been all his life painting landscapes that vie with those of the greatest living masters, in whatever part of the world, and has illustrated some of the most beautiful and characteristic scenes in our country, lying on his death bed, an object of charity! In (lod's name, let him have it, shameful though the fact be that the neglect of his countrymen imposes such a necessity upon him as to be its recipient We hope there will be found enough of the lovers and appreciators of art, in this section of the country, to add materially to the fund now solicited. fiv" Puns Farri and Mary the contestants of last week on the Metairie, run again this afternoon, on the Union Course. Oil Manufacturing Compast. Thechar ter of a company which has been formed, under this style, for the purpose of making oil from rosin, will be found in our advertising columns of this morning. There is no doubt that this is an undertaking which holds out the strongest hopes of success, and cannot but confer great public benefit.

Oil has actually, and to a great extent, decreased in the amount produced during late years, while the demand for it has increased enormously, and must continue to do so. Our boundless pine forests will furnish material for making it in vast quantities, to the best advantage on the spot, and at a cost very largely below what it is at present. We wish the company a prosperous prosecution of the enterprise. Passengers by Steamship Quaker City.

A private telegraphic despatch was received yesterday by a friend of ours, conveying the positive information that the treaty of peace between the Allies aud Russia had been signed at Paris. The date of signature must have been probably on the 29th of March, the day on which the Cambria left Liverpool. Immediately prior to her sailing, a London" house, whose sources of information are of the very best, telegraphed the important fact to Liver pool, with instructions to advise their friends in the United States of the actual termination of the war. We hnve every reason to believe in the entire reliability and correctness of this news. The Drainrttic Fund Dinner at Aiew York.

This excellent institution numbers among its members the gentlemen and ladies of the dramatic profession in every part of the land, and, as a matter of interest to them, and to those who are interested in the welfare of the drama and its professors, we have ever endeavored to keep up the record of its advance in influence, prosperity and well doing. The eighth anniversary of the formation of the Kuud, the 10th April, was celebrated, at the Metropolitan Hotel, this year, with peculiar honors, in the form of a dinner, the tickets of admission to which were disposed of many days before it came off, and then could not be had at any price. Two hundred and twenty five guests sat down to table. The hall was splendidly and appropriately decosated. At the head oi the hall were bus peuded the portraitu of Washington, Shakespeare and Garrit k.

Ou the walls at inter vuls were inscribed the names of those who had added lustre to the drama by the pen or by filling the ranks of the profession. The President of the Association, James T. Brady, presided. Ex Judge Edmonds aud Col. Fuller, of the Mirror, were at the opposite end of the tables.

Seated by the side of the President were Thomas Francis Meagher and Judge Daly, and Mr. Blake, of the Broadway theatre. Many members of the dramatic profession were present. At half past 9 o'clock the cloth was removed nixl the doors were opened for the admission of ladies who had beu invited to be present to listen to the speeches and music, which was to form the concluding part of the entertainment. About sixty ladies were present.

When they had seated themsaaes, a glee party, led by Mr. Charles M. Wolcot, sang noli.1 Lfoutinc. Mr. Brady, the newly elected President, Irinrla tli fieur i a iwl tlion a TI nnn nrkri j.

Fuller, of the Evening Mirror, to the ninth'. After the toast and speech to the Dramatic Fund, the excellent treasurer, Mr. Wemyss, read a brief atatement of the present condition of the fund, from which it appeared that meinliers have been added to the Assoia tion during the past year, and have been paid to qualified applicants; the annual increase was $5,30:., und the cap.tal amounts to $31 A great niuuy volunteer toasts and speeches were inad" songs were sung by many eminent artists, among whom were several distinguished members of the Opera troupe, and a munificent collection (the great business object of the dinner,) was taken up, by way of addition to this excellent fund. This association is composed of ladies and gentlemen attached to the stage, and is a benevolent and mutual protective association. Each actor who is a member of the association, and who is by illness incapacitated from following the duties of his vocation, is entitled to receive $10 per week, and after obtaining a certain age, heis entitled to a pension of MO per annum.

We are gratified to be able state, (on the authority of the press of Xew York.) to those persons who are attached to the fund, and are now absent from New York city, that the annual festival was one of which they may be proud. 9 Vsr The New York Legislature adjourned on the 8th in a snarl. By the constitution they can only receive pay for a session of one hun died days, and when their time was up, they voted to adjourn, leaving half of the most important public business untouched or unfinished. They would not stay a day without pay. They had something like a panic, because one of the members died of the small pox.

Nearly forty members of the Legislature addressed a letter to the Governor asking him immediately to convene the two Houses for aji extra session iu order to pass the ordinary appropriation bills, and the apportionment bills, for dividing the State into Senato rial, Assembly and udicial Districts for the next election. ihe Governor aeciinea in a very tart note, in which he hinted that as the Legislature had neglected business, the must take the responsibility, and the State must get along as it could. It is not unlikely, however, that he will change his mind and call the Legislature together, time enough to have the Districts "fixed up" for the fall election Party interests will be strong enough to exact that of him.

Gr The Clay Club, of Augusta, an appropriate ner versary of the birth of the on Hyphen dee oraUon xn the Richmond Suction. A JtZaZ; many la4.es, was The Great Fire in Philadelphia. Tho Philadelphia North American, of the 11th inst, gives the following account of the commencement of the great fire in that city, a brief notice of which we had by telegraph: About 1 o'clock this morning, a fire broke out in, the Artisan Buildings, a very extensive manufacturing establishment in Raustead Place, running west trom Fourth street, above Cuesnut. The flames spread with great rapidity, and for some time the labors of the fiieinen were unavailing to check their progress. The height of the buildings, and their peculiar situation, mude it a mutter of great difficuitv for the various companies to bring their streams to beur with much effect upon the burning portions As we write this, about 2 o'clock, A.

the contlagra lion is raging furiously, and appears to have not yet reacned its height. The United Slates Hotel is in imminent danger, und the occupants are all removing with their baggage to less dangerous quarters. The rear of the hotel is on tire, and the whole building will soon be flooded wiih water. We have not learned how tlie fire originated. It will no doubt prove one of the moat destructive that we have had for some time post.

Several buildings onKanstead Place are now totally destroyed, and the supposition was that those immediately iu front, on Fourth street, will soon full a prey to the devouring element, as tbe wind appears to draw in that direction. Large fiery cinders, or flakes, of the burning materials, are carried for several squares, endangering wooden roofed buildings ou which they mar chance to lull. P. S. It is now hulf past 2 o'clock, and we are obliged to go to press, wiuieut any further particulars.

There seems to be no abatement in the fury of the flumes, and the walls are falling every few minutes. A Philadelphia despatch, of the 11th, to the Baltimore Patriot, 4gives further particulars, as follows About midnight last night a 6 re broke out in the upper part ol the Artican buildiugs, a vast establiab metit, five stories in height, forming a hollow square in the rear of Chestnut and Fourth streets, occupied by various branches of manufacture, which, together with nearly all the contents, entirely destroyed. Every part of the building was tenanted by workshops, with valuable machinery driven by an eighry horce power eugine in the basement. Mr. Duval, the wll known lithographer, occupied tloor.

Ilia loaa ia estimated at 100.tHXi, on which he hus but insurance. He had forty steam presses and an immense stock of stones, "Ate, in cludiug the lithographs of Coin.

The total loss is not yet estimated, but it must prove very heavy. The fire was so rapid that scarcely iinvihuig was saved except from the lower floor. The rear of tne United Slates Hotel, on Chestnut street, adjoined the building, and its destruction et med inevitable. The boarders took alarm and nVd for sufety, hut the damage to the building from tire was very slight. It was, however, flooded with water.

Robert Pile and M. llroy, printers, also occupied the buiiding, which was owned by Coroperthwaite, and valued at covered by insurance. Messrs. Coropefthwaite booksellers, bad some 12,000 worth of slock among the various printing and binding eMahlishments, which was mostly insured. The autrrepate of the loss is supposed to be not less than S.110,01.0.

The firemen were soon on the fr round after the alarm was given, but owing to the arge amount of combustible material stored on the premises, the great height of the building and the narrajnes8 of the street, the utmost exertions of the various fire companies were powerless to check the rapid spread of the flames, which soon spread to No. occupied by the same parlies, and to No. 38 on the other side, the extensive type foundry of J.
