One of the late Jamaica Papers contains the fold
lowing article
CATSKILL, Fan. Thursday night last,
the house of the Hon. DANLELSAYEIt, of Canton,
was burned down, and horrible to relate, foUr of
his children were consumed •in the ilames. The
circumstances of this unhappy affair, so far as have
come to our knowledge, are these :—At a late.
hour of the night-the back part (or kitchen) of the
house was discovered to be on tire, but not till it had
got hisuch a height, audits progress so rapid, that
every effort of the family, and the inhabitants or tho,
neighbotirhood, to save the house, .or the four
children who slept in the Chamber, the eldest, a
daughter fourteen or fifteen years of .age, proved
ineffectual. Some' few articles of furniture were
saved out of the tower part of the house. Hew
the tire originated 'is not, know-n ; but we 'feu n
that Judge Sam retired at rather late bed-tinie,
and previous to -retiring had the prvemition to ;;O
hitnsetfand exathine all his tires, aid con ,iJervkl

eioasot any thing inure than accident. • •

Frtgn the circumstances attending the robbery, it is
thought the robbers were very well acquainted with
the premises, and great hopes are entertained they
will be, speedily traced out.
