The Fire King.-There can be nobody in this town who can read, who has not heard of the ex- plolts of M. Chauben, the consumer of poison and conquerer of fire of whom the Kenucklans would say that he can whip his weight in saamanders and that for ten dollars you may throw in streak of lightning, or steam engine to boot. He is now in this city, and has already exhibited his extraordina ry accomplishment to q select party of scientific gentlemen and some fire eaters. There is no jug glery in his performance. His secret is in his ant dote and in bis chemIcal preparations. This is eel tifed both in England, and by the gentlemen who attended at his private exhibition the other evening and strictly scrutinzed his proceedings. His next public exhibition is postponed until Monday, as will

 down in the program will be performed; to the as tonlshment of those who in the way of refreshment prefer cold water to prussic acid, and lemonade to melted lead; who would rather wipe their mouths with danask napkin than with bar of red hot iron, and would rather eat their beef steaks when nicely served up by the waiter, than get into the oven and cook them themselves. Walter Scott's Fire King was a fool to M. Chaubert who has the freedom of the destroying element and is at the same time harmless to his mortal friends. Mithri- dates fool to him. for he made no money out of his performance in the way of eating poison, and his familiarity with it at last proved his bane in the wrong way. They say the al sends cooks; but M. Chaubet has no need to make contract with him, he can jump into the fire himself, and make

 it do it's biddid on his own account. He is Chau- bert the Ignpotent and has busted Vulcan from his titles and prerogatives,-N, Y. Com. Adp.
