The alarm of fire which occurred night at 11 o'clock was caused by the setting on fire of a frame shedding and fencing; in the rear of the south-west corner of Howard street and Carpenters' alley. The flames spread rapidly to a small dilapidated frame building on the corner, occupied by the flour inspectors as an office, the two-storv house adjoining, owned and occupied by Mr. Wilson B.

Crook, commission, merchant, and a smali brick tenement on the alley. owned by Mr. Crook, and occupied as a dwelling by Charles Scott colored. The firemen were present in great in a few minutes, and by their powerful streams soon arrested the progress of the destroying element, and that, too. before the buildings were more than one-half destroyed The aggregate loss will scarcely exceed 81,000, all of which ts sustained by policies in offices In this city.

This Is the third time within a month that the same premises have beea fired by the torch of the incendiary, and it is hoped that the liberal reward offered by the In surance companies will result in the bringing to justice of the guilty parties.

Hayes, as master, of jnachlnery, and nominated Henry Tyson, of Baltimore, to fill the vacancy. The resignation was accepted, and the nomination unanimously confirmed.

Mr. Hayes has been in the service of the company for some twenty years past, having, served his apprenticeship in the workshops, and risen by the forco of his skill to the command of the important department from which "he has, after a five years' administration, retired. His successor, Mr. Tyson, has lately retarned front an extended tour of Inspection of the workshops and railroad machinery of Europe and of the Eastern States, and has thus had large opportunities for obtaining the latest information on the' subject.

P. had retired to bed, her husband not having then returned home, she was awakened by the fumes of burning pitch and oil, and upon descending to the first story discovered that a ball of combustible matter had been thrown up-on the floor, through a broken sash, and had communicated flames to a pile of kindling wood and a market basket near which it had been placed. A few days previously a dog upon the premises was poisoned, probably by the same, baleful wretches who attempted to burn the The Fuel Market. The condition of the fuel market is such as to induce housekeepers and others interested to supply themselves with a good stock sufficient for the winter season. The wharves are pretty well filled with a fair quality, the retail rates of which are as follows: Pine per single cord 2 75: prime article of yellow for bakers, Ac, at $3 Go; oak $3 to $3 75, and "hick- 4 50 to S5.

The wholesale tobacco houses, as well as a very large proportion of-merchants generally, now close their, respective places of business at 5 and 6 o'clock each afternoon, in order to allow their clerks as well as themselves additional hours of leisure for phy- siciii recrcauou buu niif ueciud-i pursuits Counterfeits. We still find in circulation counterfeit gold dollars.

People cannot be too cautious in the examination of these coin. We also saw yesterday a counterfeit quarter of a dol- lar, which was well executed. Proceedings of the Courts. Criminal Court. Before Judge Stump.

Mil- ton AVhilney. Attorney for the State, pro- secuting. following business occupied yesterday: The case of the State vs. John Tarring, la- -dieted on the charge of the murder of Eugene Broaders, (in connection with Chas. Robinson,) siAiruiiu uiiu i ill a liisiui, a.

tuts uuici uic corner or Camden and Eutaw streets. William P. Preston, Esq for the accused, Charles D. Craft aiding the State. Upon the opening of the Court the State's Attorney stated that one of the jurors, Mr.

James N. Muir, already sworn in the case, desired to be discharged, his wife and child being sick. The Court objected to such a course of procedure, as being calculated to do Injustice to parties under trial, but consented in the present instance to grant the request if it was concurred in by the counsel, who agreed to it, and the gentleman was relieved from serving in this cause. This left seven jurors empanelled in the cause, and me jouri men proceeded to the selection or tne I remaining five, those already selected being 1 Messrs. Charles W.

Murray, John Robinson, Thomas B. Birch, John Young, John Rowles, Henry J. Michael, James H. Milliken. Of the remaining five jurors Messrs.

Thomas Watts, Thomas Bowling, William E. Whitson, were selected. The prisoner's counsel raised again the point that the prisoner could not go to trial unless the State would admit the facts set forth in the affi-I davit in reference to what George W. Phlager, an absent testify to. To this the I State objected, urging its right, after the admis-j sion of the affidavit as evidence, to introduoe-wltnesses to set aside the same.

After a long argument on the part of counsel and the citation of numerous authorities the i court decided that the State did not admit the i truth of the affidavit only that witness, if present, would swear to the facts there stated, i and had the right to call witnesses to contradict them; and also decided against a continuance of the cause. i The selection of the remaining two jurors was i then proceeded with, and the list filled with the pames of Messrs. YCIliiam H. Onion and James i W. W.

Taylor. 1 The court then charged the jury not to sepa-I rate or bold converse with other parties in refer-' ence to this cause, and adjourned the court until ten o'clock this morning. The grand jury made 64 presentments total thus far 711.. U. District Court.

On Wednesday morning a party of nearly 400 persons, including more than 200 Odd- Fellows, left here in the steamer Georgia, Capt. Pearson, for a visit to Easton, with the intention of participating In the Impressive ceremenies of dedicating the new hall recently constructed in that city by the enterprising membersof Miller Lodge, No. 18-. The committee of arrangements of that Lodge, Dr. Samuel Martin, and Messrs.

John Mason and Jesse Hughes, were on board, and the trip down was of a very pleasant character, the cornet and cotillon bands of Capt. Linhard affording music for the merry dance. Arrivinc at the wharf a large escort of the order welcomed the visiters, and after a procession through the beautiful little town, the line halted in front of the court-iouse, and the visiters were soon engaged in partaking of an acceptable collation served up on tables the entire shady lawn in frnt of that butlding. Ample justice having been rendered the repast, the members proceeded to dedicate the hall, which is a handsome structure of brick, three stories in height, and having two of the other of 30 feet. The original building was destroyed by fire In March, 1855.

The architect of the present building is Joseph Kemp; house-carpenter, Geo. F. Dunning; bricklayer, Mr. Osbourn. The exercises were conducted by the officers of the Grand Lodge of the State of Maryland, as follows: George W.

Mowbray, Grand Master; William C. Cunningham, Deputy Grand Master; Joseph B. Escavaille, Grand Secretary; William H. Neilson. Grand Marshal; Benjamin Daffin, Grand Chaplain; Lemuel Prince, Grand Guardian; John Dobson, Grand Conductor; A.

G. Mott. Grand Herald, and A. H. Walton, Assistant Grand Herald, of Cumberland; Second Assistant, Mr.

Moffett. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr. Herd, of Hereford, Baltimore whilst the oration, an eloquent and chaste production, was delivered by Rev. B.

Brown, of Miller Lodge. Amongst the lodges In line were the Friendship Lodge, No. and the Salem Encampment. No. 2.

of Baltimore, and large delegations of Mount Vernon Lodge, No. 26, of Har- ford county, and the Dorchester Lodge, No. 19, of Cambridge It was nearly o'clock when the visitors returned to the Georgia, and, after a pleasant run of six hours, reached the city seemingly delighted with the programme of proceedings. The Church Heme Society. The anniversary I of the Church Home Society, a benevolent institution established by the Protestcnt Episcopal Church, took place on Wednesday evening, in St.

Paul's Church, on which occasion a very large congregation was present, whilst Bishop Whittingharh presided. The report of the trustees of the fund was read by Dr. Wyatt, setting forth the need of greater efforts being made to raise the sum of $20,000, with whichto build up an institution worthy of that denomination ia Baltimore city. The fund is $5,441 Invested; unpaid subscriptions $555. The report of the rector, Rev.

Mr. Tuttle, was read by the Rev. S. R. Sargeant, succeeded by a vigorous discourse preached by the Rev.

A. C. Coxe, of Grace Church, from the parable of 10th chapter and 35th verse, and constituting a most admirable effort fn behalf of a wholesome and general system of benevolence on the pirt of Christians. The report of Mr. Tuttle embraces a number of interesting statements attesting the great importance of the work and the good which has already been accomplished in relieving the wants of the suffering poor.

Large numbers of most worthy and needy persons had found a happy home within the walls of the building, and made to feel very sensibly that some persons not only cared for their souls but devised liberal things for their bodies During the past year the principal means of support was derived from the congregations of St. Paul's, Emmanuel, Grace and Mount Calvery churches. Drowned. Y'esterday afternoon, when theshlp Marion was lying in the stream and ready to proceed to sea, one of the sailors who shipped as Joseph Moflit jumped overboard, and was drowned. He had oeen taken on board by a couple of officers but a short time before, and appeared to be sober.

He conversed on deck with the captain and mate, and nothing appeared ont of the way. When he jumped Into the river the act was observed, but the sailors were all aloft, and It was some minutes before a boat could bs lowered. A canal steamer passing by stopped and their boat was started for him, but the poor fellow sunk before he could be reached. His effort was doubtless to escape by swimming ashore The deceased is said to have belonged to Baltimore and resided somewhere on Federal Hill. The body has not been recovered.

Dreadful Affair. On Wednesday afternoon a man named Christian Bay, aged about thirty-three years, and engaged in the Maryland Sugar Refinery, accidentally fell into a large vessel of boiling syrup. Exertions were promptly made to rescue him from his awful condition, and scarcely a moment elapsed ere it was done, but not before he had undergone the horrible process of boiling alive. Nearly the entire skin of his body was scalded so severely as to come off. He was'carefully conveyed to the Lombard Street -Infirmary? where every possible means were re sorted to in oruer 10 save ms me, dui numan ei-forts proved After undergoing the most excruciating agony, he expired yesterday morning at 8 o'clock The large and valuable establishment known as the Powhattan Mill, owned by Messrs.

William Mason A Sons, Baltimore, and situated on Gwynn's Falls, 7 miles from the city, underwent a narrow escape of destruction by fire at an early hour on Tuesday, in consequence of a piece of steel coming in contact with the revolving machinery, and communicating a spark of Are to the cotton. The proprietors and operatives by dint of well directed efforts succeeded in extinguishing the flames with a very trifling damage. Fortunately, the picking-house in which the occurrence took place is separated from the main building by a thick fire wall, and the communication through a heavy doorway of iron. Inquest Dr. Benson, coroner, was called on yesterday morning for the purpose of holding an inquest over the remains of a man named Gus-tavus Grier, who resided at No.

19 South Liberty street, aged about 33 years. It appeared that he was discovered by a 'fellow boarder at an early hour yesterday morning, his head and part of the body hanging over the bedside. Judging from appearances, it was evident that his last moments must have occasioned great pain. He was engaged as a clerk in the clothing establishment of Stein Bros who give him an excellent character. The jury hearing the evidence rendered a verdict of death from apoplexy.

Great excitement existed at San Francisco, owing to a terrible murder which had been com- mitted. A man named Casey shot James King, the editor of the Bulletin, ia the public streets, on the 14th, and Mr. King died two days after on the 16th Great excitement ensued.

The old Vigilance Committee called a meeting, and placards of an inflammatory nature were posted calling on the citizens to take the law into their own hands. On Sunday, the 18th, some-three thousand citizens, completely organ- ized into divisions and companies, armed with i muskets, marched by three separate streets from the committee rooms and took possession of the jail, taking thence Casey, together with the gambler Cora, and carried them to the commit- tee rooms, where they remained stronsly-guard- ea up to the sailing ot the steamer, it was supposed thev would be hung.

They have been engaged all the morning in comparing views. There seems to be a general disposition among the delegates to take no decided steps towards a nomination.

New York, June 12 Fremcnt's chances are still by many considered best A portion of the members, however, propose to postpone the nomination until after the republicans nominate. Others desire an immediate nomination, and propose to appoint a committee to confer with a similar committee on the part of the republican convention, and thus secure the nomination by both conventions of the same candidate. A letter has been received from Speaker Banks urging the convention to select the strongest man, and at the same time signifying his willingness to accept if nominated by both conventions.

The chairman of the committee (Hon. Alexander H. H. Stuart,) appointed to inforjn Hon. Millard Fillmore of his nomination for the Presidency by the convention which was held In February last in Philadelphia has communicated to the Richmond Whig the annexed response of that gentleman accepting the It will be seen that Mr.

Fillmore appeals. to his past course as a pledge and a guarantee for the' future, and s'ays as to sectional agitation- he is prepared to use all'the means in his power to suppress iti Paris, May 2lst, 1356. Gentlemen I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter informing me that the National Convention of the American party Which had just closed its session at Philadelphia bad unanimously presented my name for the Presidency of the United States, and associated with it that of Andrew Jackson Donelson for the Vice Presidency This unexpected communication met me at Venice on my return from Italy, and the duplicate, mailed thirteen days later, was received on my arrival in this city 1 ast evening. I This must account for my apparent neglect in giving a more prompt reply. You will rdon me for saying that when my administration closed in 1853, I considered my political life as a public, man at an end, and thenceforth I was only anxious to discharge my duty as a private citizen.

Hence I have taken no active part in politics. But I have by no means been an indifferent spectator of passing events, nor have I hesitated to express my opinion on all political subjects when asked, nor to give mv vote and private influence for those men and measures I thought best calculated to promote the prosperity and glory of our common country. Beyond this I deemed it improper for; me to interfere. But this unsolicited and unex-i pected nomination has imposed upon me a new duty, from which I cannot shrink; and therefore, approving, as I do, of the general objects of the party which has honored me with Its confidence, I cheerfully accept its nomination Without waiting to enquire of Its prospects of success or defeat It is sufficient for me to know that by so doing-1 yield to the wishes of a large portion of my fellow-citizens in every part of the Union who, like myself, are sincerely anxious to see the administration of our government restored to that original simplicity and purity which marked the first years of its existence; and if possible to quiet that alarming sectional agitation, which, while it delights the monarchists of Europe, causes every true friend of our own country to mourn. Having the experience of past service in the administration of the government, 1 maybe permitted to refer to that as the exponent of the future, and to say, should the choice of the Convention be sanctioned by the people, I shall, with the same scrspulons' regard for the rights of every section or the Union wtilcn then lnnuencea my-conduct endeavor to perform every duty confided by the Constitution and laws to the Executive.

As the proceedings of this Convention have marked a new era in the history of the country, by btlnging a new political organization into the approaching Presidential canvass, I take the occasion to re -affirm mv full confidence in the patriotic purpeses of that organization, which I regard as springing out of a public necessity, forced upon the country, to a large extent, by unfortunate sectional divisions, and the dangerous tendency of those divisions towards disunion. It alone, in my opinion, of all the political agencies now existing, is possessed of the power to silence this violent and disastrous agitation, and to restore harmony by its own example of moderation and forbearance It has a claim, therefore, in my judgment, upon every earnest friend of the integrity of the Union. So estimating this party, both in its present position and future destiny, I freely adopt Its great leading principles as announced in the recent declaration of the National Co ncil at Philadelphia, a copy of which you were so kind as to enclose me, holding them to be just and liberal to every true interest of the country, and wisely adapted to the establishment and support of an enlightened, safe, and effective American policy, In full accord with the ideas and the hopes of the fathers of our Republic. I expect shortly to sail for America, and, with the blessings of Divine Providence, hope soon to tread my native soil. My opportunity of com paring my own country and the condition of its fieople with those of Europe has only served to ncrease my admiration and love for our own blessed land of liberty, and I shall return to it without even a desire ever to cross the Atlantic again.

I beg of you, gentlemen, to accept my thanks for the very flattering manner In which you have been pleased to communicate the results of the action of that enlightened and patriotic body of men who composed the late Convention, and to be assured that I am, with profound respect and esteem, your friend and fellow-citizen, Millard Fillmore.

The Wasaington Guano Convention. Among several resolutions which were adopted by the convention of farmers at Washington, this week, was one moved by Col. Piper, of Carroll connty, as follows Resolved, That this convention respectfully recemmend to the farmers in the habit of using Peruvian guano alone to substitute a mixture of Peruvian and Colombian guano and other phos phate guanoes in proper proportion, as recom mended ty proi. Booth, of Philadelphia, and Stewart, of Baltimore, and other distinguished Uhemists, as among the most efficient means to reduce the present high price of Peruvian guano. In some remarks by Col Piper before the con.

vention he stated that he had used last season a compound of one-third of Peruvian with two thirds of Mexican guano, which retlly consti. tuted a fertilizer and not an exhauster, and he assured the convention that he had one of the finest wheat crops in his neighborhood, as admitted by all who had seen it. The land to which this was applied was corn ground, which, of course, was a draw back upon it. The Colonel- stated that he was indebted to Dr. Higgins, the Maryland State Chemist, for the information which induced him to use this compound of guanoes.

Sumner by the President on the 23d of May. It will be seen that it is very decided in Its tone, and can hardly iail to produce a salutary and pacific effect: Wmshing ton City, May 23, 1856. "To Colonel E. V. Sumner, Fort Leavenworth: "I have just sent by telegraph, to Gov.

Shannon, a dispatch, of which the following is a copy: "Since my telegraph of this morning; was sent, the Secretary of War has laid before ine Colonel Sumner's letter to you of the 12th instant. This suggestion strikes me as wise and nrudent. and I hope that before this reaches you, decisive measures wiu nave oeen tasen to nave process in the hands of the Marshal quietly executed. "My knowledge of facts is imperfect, butwith the force cf Col. Sumner at hand, I perceive no occasion for the posse, armed or unarmed, which the Marshal is told to have assembled at Le-compton.

The instructions issued to yourself and Col. Sumner, during your last visit to this city, must be efficiently executed. Sufficient power was committed to you, and you must use it. "Obedience to the laws and consequent security of the citizens of Kansas are primary objects. must repress lawless violence in the Territory, in whatever form it may manifest itself.

(Signed) "True copy, Franklin Pierce. V. Sumner, Col. 1st Cavalry." This document appeared in the Kansas Herald "Extra' of the 3d Instant, and upon the following day a proclamation was issned by Governor Shannon, of which the following is represented as the purport: "All persons belonging to military companies, unauthorized bylaw are commanded to disperse, otherwise they would be dispersed by force of the United States troops. The proclamation requires aU civil officers of the government to be vigilant in enforcing the laws against offenders and protecting the property and persons of all law-abiding citizens.

The proclamation further says that all aggressive parties outside of the Territory will be repelled. That the military force under the control of the Executive is ample to enforce the laws and protect the rights of citizens. The proclamation of President Pierce, of February 11, is appended, and notice given that it will be strictly enforced. A requisition has been made on Col. Sumner for a sufficient force to insure obedience to the proclamation.

The tone of the President's despatch indicates very distinctly tne earnest desire by which he is actuated that all unnecessary disturbance should be avoided, that peace sho.uld be restored and maintained, and that the laws should be upheld for the safety and protection of all good citizens. We infer from the allusion to instructions given to Col. Sumner in Washington that the President supposed him to be fully advised as to his resources and the use of them in any emergency. If so, there has been some misapprehenion, which has caused delay in the use of means thaj might possibly have prevented many of the act of violence that have recently been perpetrated. A recent despatch says that the proclamation of Gov.

Shannon has had no effect on either party. However this may be, we have no doubt that other means can be made available to subdue the excitement.
