Messrs. MUNROE & FRANCIS, who printed the first volume, that the work is not continued with them; on the contrary, it gives us pleasure to state that it has been promptly and neatly printed by them. The increasing patronage afforded has induced the publisher to provide an office, and place the paper on a more permanent basis;-and it is with satisfaction he announces that arrangements have been made with Messrs. FARRAR & BOWEN, to take charge of the establishment, who will attend to all that appertains to the typographical department.

NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW.-The fifty second number of the Review is published and contains a more than usual variety of matter.-Some forty pages of this number are devoted to a critical notice of "The Last of the Mohicans." For contents see advertisement.

BOSTON MONTHLY MAGAZINE.The first number of the second volume of the Magazine is published, illustrated with a lithographic portrait of General Joseph Warren. Its contents are both instructive and amusing.

A great quantity of hail fell at Albany, during a heavy shower on the 27th ult.; some of the hail stones were an inch in diameter.

DESHA.-At the June term of Harrison county Court, held at Cynthiana, Ky. the case of Isaac B. Desha was called, but all the Jurors were rejected they having formed or expressed an opinion as to the prisoner's guilt. A second effort to obtain a Jury on the next day was also unsuccessful, and the trial was abandoned for the term. No expectation is now entertained that he will ever again be tried in that county. This will in effect acquit him, or keep him a State prisoner at an annual expense to the state of three thousand dollars.

THE FIRE AT CHARLESTON.-The Southern Patriot of June 24, says, "On inquiring we learn that this was the most extensive fire, for the number of buildings consumed, and amount of property destroyed, that has visited Charleston since great fire of 1810-and is the first fire that has occurred in the same part of the city for upwards of 25 years. Most of the retail country business was carried on in this neighborhood. Apprehensions were felt for the safety of that extensive building the Orphan House, and it was entirely owing to the prevalence of a westerly wind that the fire did not reach it. The loss of property in houses and goods must be very great. It has been estimated at upwards of One Hundred Thousand

Dollars. Several poor persons who possessed small stores were burnt out and their goods destroyed. Much distress consequently prevails.

Mr. E. W. Reinhart, for some time past publisher of a paper at Chelmsford, has issued proposals for issuing one in this city, to be called property was insured. "THE NORTH AMERICAN DEMOCRAT.' The avowed object is to support Gen. Jackson for the next Presidency.

The origin of the Fire is said to have been accidental.

We are informed by the Nantucket Inquirer, that in the year 1820 there were more than five hundred persons in the town of Nantucket bearing the name of Coffin, all probably the descendants of Tristam Coffin, who settled in this country about the year

1644.

Application is to be made to the New-York Legislature at the next session, for leave to build a McAdamized turnpike road from Albany to Troy.

CONTEMPT OF COURT.-The manner in which affairs are administered in the English Court of Chancery, is now occupying much of the public attention in that country. A recent case will illustrate its character.

A child of seven or eight years of age was committed to York castle jail for a contempt of Court! The child was committed nearly a year ago, for a breach of the rules of the court in not appearing, by his best

Holmes' Sign.

GEORGE B. HOLMES respectfully informs his customers and the public, that he has removed from Court-street to HowardStreet, next door to Holland's Coffee House, for the convenience of more ample rooms. If clean cloths, a fountain of pure water, and keen set razors, are desiderata, this warm weather, they may be found at his saloon. He has long considered himself a physiognomical Hair Cutter, suiting the contour of the face by his disposition of this important feature, the hair. He professes to understand all styles of cutting exhibited on the medallions of every age and nation, but prefers to follow no one with servility, but rather to be guided by taste, science and skill in each individual case.Come and let him try. July 8.

NOTICE.

PELLAGRINO MAGNONI, Hair Dresser, informs his Friends and Customers, that he has removed from Elm-street to his former stand, in Wilson's Lane.
