The following results of the disaster is given by this morel
ing's Quotidienne :—" It was ascertained last night that "d
were dead, comprising those who expired in the hospitals,
from the state of others who are injured, there is every rese°7,
to apprehend the number will be increased to upwards of 96:,
The Debats states the number of dyad to be much smaller t':
that given by some of the journals, but more considerable th.e:
the number sta•ed by the Messager. According to the Delll,

Among the dead was M. Chavard.:s, an insurance ageu.'
Bezieres, accompanied by a friend and his wile. who had be
married only three months, and two other friends. The htioe.
band of the lady, who is lodged at the Hotel du Globe, in .0"
Rue Croix des Petits Champs, had both his legs fractured; ;_„
gendarmes dragged him trom the waggon, but it requiredr,
much force, that the joints of both the poor man's arms Rife
dislocated. This was partly occasioned by his grasping his i

the persons recognised at the Morgue are a lady nan::ll,.

FIRE AT HAMBURGH.
(EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER.) VIA
HAMBURG/I. MAY 10.—The dreadful conflagration ot
has destroyed one of the most favoured parts of our city,
length ceased Thirty-seven streets, including the au las
of St. Nicholas and St. Peter, witk their admirable steebbo
lie in ashes. A tremendous storm from the south confinif
flames at length between the rampart of the suburb of
George and the great basin of the Alster, and in that are
fire died out by its own rage. of
We count 1,200 houses gutted and destroyed , 01-

them were blown up or battered down with balls, to put It
to the progress of the flames. Four days and nights the
_..h4001
element raged, and mocked the almost superhuman encts
of our inhabitants. Many of them have fallen eat" 0,0
to their courage. During this dreadful perioi all disto—te
of rank or of station was obliterated, and all presented thilefosts4
fying example of self-devotion for the general good of a
native city. This excitement could alone have enabledki
bear the unceasing exertions of four days. But few -
their eyes during that time.
Now that the fire :s extinct,' some degree of quiet retutj;
but the pain and grief only now begin to be felt; FortWriY
there are not many quarters inhabited by poor pe°l;tfs#
eluded in the pale of destruction, and the inexpres ible ditto
and misery exhibited during the time of terror by 1100
of homeless wretches, exposed to all the inclemency bt d
night air, arose, indeed, from the precipitate n,ig ittit
those whose habitations have bezn spared, anclA for,
have now returned to them. The real sufferers are cat fist

Our new Bourse is saved, as also the Bank, at

portion of its contents. Indeed, the fire never reached jorp
commercial portion of the city, but rather the seat of jos' trba
and we shall long have to mourn over oar heavy loss. .00
