We copy the following from the Rational Intelligencer of Tuesday last, being an extract of a letter from their New York correspondent, which goes to show the horrible condition of a portion of the free population in that great city of grog-shops, which the Legislature of the State, in the passing of a late license law, protected and secured from the control of the people: A fire, accompanied with loss of life, broke out on Thursday night, in a disreputable part of the city, called Dickens Place, from the fact, that it was visited, in company with some police officers, a few years since by the distinguished author of the Pickwith Papers," who was in search of some new phase of human life and society. The fire originated in a stable in Orange street; and some dozen buildings were either partially or wholly consumed, together with as many more small shanties occupied by Irish and German families. The scene at the fire is represented as affording a very graphic idea of the orgies of Pandemonium. In the cellars of the burning buildings parties of the lowest ten thousand' were crowded together carousing and yelling, nine-tenths of them being in a state of beastly intoxication. They reeled up at the alarm of fire, and, mingling their cries with those of frightened women, naked children, and stentorian firemen, joined to the roaring of the flames, an indescribable scene of confusion and phrenzy was produced.

The dancing-saloon described by Dickens was completely destroyed. A poor Dutchman was mortally wounded, and died this morning. Three other persons were severely, and, it is feared, mortally injured by the accidents of the occasion." SECOND ANNUAL SESSION OF THE NATIONAL DIVISION OF S. OF T. The National Division of the Order of the Sons of Temperance of the United States, commenced its second session at the Hall of the Sons of Temperance, 315 Broadway, New York, on the 11th insj.

The Organ says, a great amount of important busines was transacted, which will duly appear. The following resolutions, among others, were unanimously adopted: Whereas, the Order of the Sons of Temperanee was one of the legitimate results of the 1 redeeming Washingtonian movement; and whereas, in order to secure the success of sober principles, much depends upon the public agitation of the Resolved, That the National Division of the Sons of Temperance of the United States, recommend their brethren throughout the country to support public temperance meetings. Whereas, much good has resulted to our Order, as well as the cause of temperance generally, from public processions; and whereas the success of our Order calls for some universal Resolved, That the National Division of the Sons of Temperance of the United States recommend a Grand National Jubilee of the Order, to take place on the first Tuesday in June, 1846, in the city of New York. Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed to carry out the above. J.

W. Oliver of N. Samuel Ellis of James Fleming of N. Nathan Seeley of and A. D.

Wilson of N. were appointed said committee. WORKING FOR A LIVING. The following excellent article in the Offering, edited by the factory girls of Lowell, breathes the right spirit: Whence originated the idea that it was derogatory to a dignity, or a blot upon female character, to labor 1 And who was the first to say sneeringly, 'Oh, she works for a Surely, such ideas and expressions ought not to grow on republican soil! The time has been when ladies of the first rank were accustomed to busy themselves in domestic employment. Homer tells us of princesses who used to draw water from the springs, and wash with their own hands the finest of the linens of their respective families.

The famous Lucretia used to spin, in the midst of her attendants and the wife of Ulysses, after the siege of Troy, employed herself weaving until her husband returned frotn Ithaca." Indian Davensport Gazette states that quite an excitement has been created at Red Rock, by the murder of three Indians. It seems that two Indians of the bauk tribe stole the wife of an Iowa chief, and brought her down to the line." The chief, having got word of th6 trsinssictioni immcciiately came to Red Rock in pursuit; here an encounter took place, which resulted in the death of tfce two Saukies." Old Pash-pe-ho, one of the war chiefs of the Sauk nation, hearing of the affray, commanded a party of his men to take the chief, and punish him for the murder. The party, upon catching the chief, bound him to a tree, and with the sharp edge of a tomahawk inflicted deep wounds upon each side of his neck iust below the ear. In this situation they let him linger for the space of an hour, he all the time beseeching them to kill him, and end his miseries. I hey, niter a wreat deal of persuasion upon the part of the chief, knocked him in the head, and put an end to his existence.

He was then taken and buried with great solemnity, and a white flag stuck at the head of his grave to denote that he was a person of some eminence. So much for savage life and savage Ad. New York Express says: The number of arrivals in this city for the week ending the 10th of June, 1845, is for the month ending same date, 8,285. Of these, 5,907 were Irish. Of these, 120 sailed from London; 262'from Dublin; 150 from Glasgow 244 from Belfast, and the remainder from Liverpool.

From France, via Havre, the arrival of steerage passengers up to the same period were from various continental ports, 1,168, viz: Rotterdam 387, Hamburgh 66, Antwerp 78, Bremen 625. Total number of steerage passengers arrived from Europe in the month ending LirE and population of the earth is estimated at one thousand millions, and a generation lasts thirty-three years. Therefore, in 33 years the 1,000,000,000 must all die! Consequently, the number of deaths will be, by approximation: Each year, each day, each hour, each minute, 57; each second, nearly 1. If, on the other hand, as has beon calculated, the number of births is to that of deaths as 12 to 10, there will bo born each year, each day, each hour, each minute, 68; each second over 1, Commingling at reams from pure tee-total Springs." To the Editor of the Washingtonian Dear Sir: In your paper of Saturday, 7th instant, there is a notice of the Total Abstinence societies of the colored people, which conies far short of a correct statement. Permit me, therefore, to place ourselves in a true position.

The first and largest society, is the African T. A. S. of Georgetown, which meets quarterly at the African M. E.

church, numbers about 500 Asbury, city, meets quarterly. 400 First Baptist, meets at church, quart'ly 200 Union Bethel, meets as above 1501 Presbyterian, meets at church, quart'ly 00 i Wesley Zion, meets at church, 150 Tsrael, M. meets at church, 300 Ebenezer, M. navy yard, meets at church, quarterly 250 Sons of Temperance, recently started, I meets on Third street, between the canal and Maryland monthly 100 Making 2.150 Alexandria was the first to lead the way among the colored people, and, I regret to say, the first to turn back; I doubt whether there exists, at present, any colored temperance society in that place. The societies in Washington and Georgetown are in a prosperous condition; and although I have not taken the number of each from record, I believe I have not overrated them.

Allow me to add, through your kindness, that there is no cause which has benefitted the people of color of this District more than the cause of temperance. Through this great enterprise, they have acquired areputation which will compare, very advantageous. ly, with any portion of the Union. Washington, June 16, 1845. W.

H. Y. UNITED BROTHERS OF TEMPERANCE. Mr. Editor Association No.

2, of the United Brothers of Temperance, D. was instituted at Odd-Fellows Hall, Navy Yard, on Tuesday evening, the 17th by Association No. 1, D. empowered by Daniel Barnes, Presi. dent of Association No.

1, of New York, and Treasurer of the State Assembly of New York. The following officers were duly elected, and installed, viz: John L. Maddox, President; Alex. H. Lawrence, 1st, Geo.

A. Breast, 2d, and H. G. Murray, Vice President; H. T.

Pritchard, Recording, Jas. Faragut, Corresponding, and Benj. Goddard, Financial Secretary; Thomas Lawson, Marshal; S. Edelin, Deputy, and A. Figaro, Assistant Deputy Marshals.

Association No. 2 then tendered an invitation to the United Brothers of Temperance, of Association or any others, to join them, either as full members or otherwise, as may suit their desires. Meetings held every Tuesday evening. The character and importance of organized Temperance Associations are fast engrossing the attention of all classes, and ere long, through their benign influence, though soft and silent, yet sweet and powerful, they must rapidly result in the diffusion of hope, joy, peace, and happiness, not only among their members and immediate connexions, but also through the entire community. The extinction of intemperance, and promotion of benevolence, being I their characteristics, sufficiently entitlo them to the countenance and support of every moral I and good citizcn.

While yet there is merit in helping the good work on, we say to all, go and do likewise, for ere long you will have to make a virtue of necessity in being drawn into it, by its universal sway. FRESCA 1 TEMPERANCE DOINGS IN THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE CITY. Sir As your paper is a good medium of communication, I would request you to that a Temperance Meeting will be beld to' morrow evening at half-past three o'clock, on Mr. Danforth's grounds, Eastern Branch Hill. The people of the neighborhood are awakening to their true interest, by manifestI ing zeal in this good cause.

A meeting was held there on the 25th on which occasion five signers to the pledge were obtained addresses were delivered by Messrs. Whipple, Little, and Dr. Walsh. Anothar meeting was held at Skagg'g, on the 8th which occasion three signers to the pledge were obtained; Messrs. Owen, Dr.

Walsh addressed this meeting. The meeting in both of the above places are to bo kept up every two weeks, alternately, during the summer. A spirit of manly firmness, in prop. agating Temperance principles, and uncompromising opposition to the use of intoxicating liquors as a beverage, should be exercised by every man true to his duty and interest. Actuated by kindness towards tho oppressed and fallen, it is incumbent on us to labor, and bring them under the benign sway of Teetotalism and thus restore thein to manhood and them-' solves.

The Anacostia Total Abstinence Beneficial Society held a stated meeting at the Hall of the Engine House, on Monday evening, the 16th on which occasion resolutions were adopted to meet at their Hall in season on the 4th of July morning, and thence proceed to the City Hall, and unite with tho other Temperanco Associations in the celebration of that day. 1 wo new rnembors were admitted, and two applications for membership were presented.

Pursuant to notice given, a number of the citizens of the "Island" convened at the School House on Maryland avenue, between 11th and 12th streets, on Wednesday eveniner, June 18, 1845.

The meeting being organized, the following gentlemen were elected officers for one year: Ji L. Smith, President; J. T. Cassell, Vice President; Wm. Lloyd, Treasurer; and Henry Day, Secretary.

After the appointment of Committees, the President stated briefly the object of the for. mation of the society, and urged the members to be vigilant in their devotion to the cause of Temperance, and use every exertion in counteracting the influence's made in our commu. nity by the use of alcoholic drinks. A motion was submitted, that the members of this Association subscribe for the 44 Washingtonian newspaper, published in this city by George Cochran Co. It was resolved, that the regular meetings of the Society be held on Wednesday evenings, in the school house as above.

On motion, the meeting adjourned. HENRY DAY, Secretary. LOCAL DOINGS. melancholy evidence of the non-enforcement of our city is chronicled this woek, in the death of a colored boy named Selden. He went into the canal, on last Sunday afternoon! to wash, and going beyond his depth was drowned.

This practice is openly carried on by the boya dtiring the wholcfcsummer season, to the great annoyance of passers by, and in direct violation of the law: and our police officers, (as with the lnw for closing grog-shops on the Sabbath,) by their culpable negligence, bccome parties to their infraction. These remarks, though general, we are happy to say are not applicable to the officers of the Second Ward as respects the grog-shops; with those they have endeavored to perform their duty, but have not been properly sustained. The Georgetown Total Abstinence society held an enthusiastic meeting in the market house last Sabbath afternoon. Addresses by Messrs. Cammack and by Mr.

Thompson. About fifty signed the pledge. The work goes bravely on in Georgetown. The Freemens' Vigilant A. S.

held its last Sabbath meeting at the Treasury Department Songs were sung by a portion of the choir, and a good, solid address delivered by the president, Savage. One, who acknowledged he was a drunkard, signed the pledge. This meeting was thinly attended, a portion of our uwrhing force being ahsent assisting the freemen of Georgetown in procuring the fifty- signers got there. We hope the Union Business Committee will proceed at once to lay their jurisdiction off" into districts, and procure speakers to fill the appointments, before the good weather shall have left us. An incalculable amount of good is done by street and there are not sufficient speakers in the field.

On Monday evening president Savage, and others, held a meeting on English Hill. Owing to there being but few speakers out this season, this part of our city has been neglected for some time past; the president, however, determined to wake tliem up, and succeeded 25 signed the pledge On Tuesday evening the stated meeting at the Club house was well attended, although a number had repaired to the Navy Yard to witness tne organization of a new branch of the United Brothers of Temperance. Addresses by Messrs Savage and signed. United Tuesday evening society No. 2, United Brothers of Temperance, was instituted at the Navy Yard, under a charter from the General Assembly of the TTniiod Brothers of the State of New York.

No doubt of the prosperity oftliis society, for among its members are some of the most efficient in the temperance army. Closing of see a notice in the daily papers, signed by a number of our principal dealers, that they intend, hereafter, closing their stores ly at 8 o'clock in the evening; thus affording them and their clerks some spare time to attend DOT temperance meetings, is it not? Come be happy to see you. may call it scaffolding at the new mill in the coarse ef erection in Georgetown, on Monday last gave way, and four or five of the workmen fell a distance of about thirty feet, upon rocks and rubbish. We understand that none of them were dangerously injured. See that your scaffolds are put up right, and well securer.

Since tne above was in type, we lwurd of the following feat which was performed by oie of Mr. Scmtnes' (the carpenter of the building) apprentices. When the scaffolding gave way ho fell, and taught hold of a girder some ten feet below with one land, and as his employer fell he caught at him, but he was beyond his reach. Mr. John Roes fell immediately after, and the apprentice (Elexius Spaulding) cauoit him by the shoulder, which broke the force of tnt fall, and most probably saved his life.

Agreeably to notice given by the Mayor, a public meeting of citizens was held at the City Hall on Thursday evening; at which several nsolutions were passed, and a committee raised to make arrangements for paying appropriate honors to the irumory of Gen. Andrew Jackson. Natal Court in the case of Captain Vooriiees closed last Thursday, and his defence will be made this day by lis counsel, Mr. Coxe.
