FIRE AT MONTREAL.

On :he 7th of September, between one and two o'clock in the
alvtaing, a fire broke out in the Quebec suburbs of Montreal. At
::.ii time not a breath of wind was stirring, but scarcely had the fire
es:ended to the adjacent house, when a very high wind arose in
the sJuth, and drove the flames with most appalling force and ra-
;!di!y, in its own direction. The fearful consequence was, that the
.?..r:es spread with the rapidity of lightning from house to house,
;1.3 from street to street, until four sections of the Quebec suburbs
tec.me almost one scene of devastation and ruin.

The number of persons burnt out amounts to 558, and ground

Marir.btrett, which, us it was, could only be prevented from taking
file by the treat and unremitting exertions of the 70th, must have
become . prey to the flames. The number of poor families thrown
