 BowERY THEATRE BURNT AGA1N.-Yester- day morning at quarter past 2 o'clock the interior of the Bowery Theatre was discover. ed to be on fire, and in the space of an hour the whole building, extending from the Bow cry through to Elizabeth street, was reduced to heap, ot nshes-nothing remaining but the two side walls and portion of the front. ine fire is said to have originated in the car pcnter's shop near the stage. It is hardly necessary to add that every thing within the walls was consumed. We regret to state in addition that the porter house of MT. Brad ford Jones, adjoining upon the Bowery on the north side, is also destroyed, together with a large amount of furniture, fixtures, sc. Also, Nos. 52, g l-2 all brick fronts; and No. 54.

 The most lamentable occurrence we have yet to record. During the burning of the theatre, the interior of which blazed like a volcano at the moment of an eruption, send ing the burning cinders in every direction, one of the embers unfortunately fell through a broken pane ofa sky light in club stable, No. 49 Christie street, setting it instantly on fire, and burning to death black man named Thomas, who slept in the loft, before he could be extricated. There were five horses in the stable, all got out without injury. The stable belonged to MT. Hamblin, who also had deep interest in the theatre. It is not known how the fire originated, but it is said to have been produced by an incendiary.

 The Montreal Gazette of the 3d, says, "last night, Andre Augustin Papineau, of St. Hya- cinthe, was brought to town from Three Riv- CTS, and committed to prison, on charge of high treason. It appears that the prisoner had been brought to Three Rivers, under a warrant for seditious practices, who was afterwards discharged by two of the Magis- trates of that place, probably on being in- formed of warrant for higher crime being out against him, butthat he continued in GUS. tody, on the verbal authority of one Magis- trate on charge of high treason. On writ of Habeas Corpus having been issued, in this interval, by the resident Judge, he was admitted to bail, himself in 400 pounds. and two others, Dr. Kimber and Oliver Boudreau, in 200 pounds each.

 Fire About 2 o'clock on Monday mor- 1.,-k nSk hNy alarm of fire. It proceeded from the bull ding occupied by Mr. Gabriel J. Seeley, as Store, which, with all its contents. was soon destroyed. MT. Seeley was insured to the amount of $2OOO, which will not wholly cov- CT his loss. On the building, belonging to MT. Horace Bull, there was no insurance.

 Horrid Bruiality-A man in Pittstield, by the name of Shearer, said to be between eighty and ninety years of age, and one oft the veal thiest citizens of this county, was committed on Saturday last 10 the jail in Lenox, for un- mercifully beating child of one of his ten- ants. The child, which was only about two and half years old, we understand was eat ing pudding and milk, and, upon crying for more, this brute in the shape of a man com menced beating it with whip, and so unmer- cifully that the child lived only 24 hours af- ter. It is said the mother was sick in an ad joining room, and remonstrated against his cruelty, but was slenced by threats that if she did not stop her noise," he would stop it for her also. Great excitement and ndigna- tion prevails-but we forbear saying more, as the case is under legal investigation.

 We take the following report of Mir. Ghol- sons remarks from the report of the debate on the Mississippi election, in the Journal of Commerce :-

 Mir. Gholson said he was free to say that the people of Mississippi were misled by the decision of this House in favor ofhinself and his colleague. In consequence of that de- cision, they had declined 10 become candid ates and their friends did not generally turn out. He was however, fully of the opin- ion that he and hts colleague tcere not members of the House, then he contestants, MeSsrS. Prentiss and Word, aoere members ofn. The House could not, in has opinion, racGte the seats. The House had decided that he and his col. league were not elected; and, though they and their friends were of different opinion, yet he was as content with the decision as any one entertaining a different opinion could be.-Troy Whig.

 Stand aside and let the n,echanics of the great citv speak-We noticed a call of respecta- ble portion of our citizens to hold meeting at the National Hall last evening to enter their protest against the passage of this Sub- Treasury Bill. We attended and was not surprised to see the faces of many that were familiar to us as the old and firm supporters of Tammany Hall, men that have been iden- tified with the party for years, and have giv- en It the triumphant majorities they have rea- son 10 be proud of, but how changed.
