Thirteen miles of the proposed canal, from the point of its intersection i the Beaver division of the Pennsylvania Canal, were divided i 25 sections, arid included the a across the Shenango, the dam across the a i in Poland, Ohio, six Locks and eight Culverts, and were all taken by good and responsible companies at an aggregate cost of These contiacts i the entire line in the state of Pennsylvania and extend a three miles i Ohio and will be seen to fall short estimates of that portion of the i heretofore published, and also lessen the supposed distance to Pittsburgh a two miles, by i i i the Beaver a division a 2i miles below Castle. Allowing a reasonable sum for bridges and other small items for extra jobs, no foreseen, it may be well supposed that about per mile will complete this section for use.

The work is already commenced and the contracts are all to be completed by the 1st of September 1836, at which time it is contemplated the line i be completed up as far as Youngstown or a a put into immediate operation. A great majority of the contractors who were disappointed in obtaining contracts have already repaired to Ravenna, where another letting ia to be offered on Monday the 17th instant, to include about the same distance and a greater amount of woik.

And how, let us i i has Gen. a i been bro't forward? Emphatically by the people--the real democracy of the country--not office-holding democrats.

His pretensions are tensive portions of the line, and will fiord a safe data to estimate the probable expense of the balance of be line. Should the project of washing down the deep cut at the i succeed, according to the ex- jectutions of the Engineer, a large urn will be saved in the estimated expense of that part of the probably enable the company complete the canal iu two seasons.

The contracts already made, for a portion of the line, which had al- a been supposed to present greater difficulties than the average of the whole, and i i an average am of lockage, would seem to a a the belief that the whole line will fall below, rather than exceed the estimates, and that the whole woik i be speedily executed. It is supposed that the i i be located as far as Warren i i a short time, and put contract.

The loss falls with peculiar severity upon editors and printers; the est a i of twelve or thirteen newspapers and periodicals are among those destroyed--upwards of twenty prinling-o'ffices, including some of the most extensive in the city, and many book binderies, in which a vast amount of business was done. Among the newspaper establishments destroyed are those of the Transcript, Jeilersonian, Morning Herald, Courier des Etats Uuis. Spirit of Seventy-Six, Old Countryman, Christian Intelligencer, New- Yorker, Catholic Diary, Protestant Vindicator, and several extensive printing-office of George P. Scott Company, in which the New York Mirror was i is also gone. In short, the loss is enormous.

We understand that i a to the amount of was effected on some of the i i and other property destroyed, but that amount is far short of the loss sustained. In one establishment alone, we are informed the stock was valued at $150,000. The great height of the buildings, most of which were of or six stories, rendered the exertions of the firemen almost ineffectual. But the most a i tidings are yet to be related; lives have been lost, to the number at least of four, and it is feared that others have also fallen victims. The names of the four whose fate is ascertained, are as follows: David Carlisle and Daniel D.

Wyatr, printers, working for Mr. Turney, 115 Fulton street. They odged in the fifth story of the bail- ding and were both to death. Samuel Blanchard, Master book- i he lodged in the fourth story of the same building, and leaped Tom the window, was so dreadfully njured that he died in fifteen minutes. The fourth was a colored a lame he was buried under the ruins of one of the fallen walls.
