houses were destroyed, between S and s

houses belonged to widows McKeldcn and

noon about the same hour, the alarm OF lire
was given from the eastern part of the city,
and three or four small brick and frame
houses, The property Of Mr.. Law, Dir Tay'

burnt. Owing to the violence Of the wind,
the flaming cinders flew great distance,
and two or three houses comparatively re-
mote from the FIRE, would have shared the
fate ofthe smaller houses which were burnt
but for the the alacrity Of the citizens, "a'

Between 10 and II O'Clock yesterday,
whilst the wind blew almost hurricane
we had another cry Of fire, and the eii-

LATEST FROM BERMUDA

We learn from Captain Briggs of III,
schooner Betsey, arrived here last nigbt in
nine days from Bermuda, that the hume.
rous depredalions committed recently, BY
Carthagenian privateers cruzing off that
Island, on British and American vessels
had induced the Governor to send on, tx,
eighteen GUN brigs, TO cruize for The pro.
lection Of shipping, bound in and out, with
instructions 70 capture every vessel this
description that they fell in with. The
briggs came out in company with the Bet.
sey. Several American vessels were board
ed and robbed by these picaroons, shor,
time before the Betsey sailed, and one OF
the crew had actually been logged TO death
for demonstrating with some severity a.
gainst their enormities. No papers ware
brought by the Betsey.
Captain Briggs states, that Markets at
Bermuda were excessively dull, and 50
glutted with American produce, that Sc
veral vessels which had touched with um-
Der, flour and bread stuffs, having been
unatie to effect sale, higher than cost,
bad sailed again for the Islands. In cor
roboration of the above, capt. B. states,
that few days before he sailed, 600 bar.
