Palladium office, Boston, January g.,
4 fire broke out in this town last evening,
in one Of the centre brick buildings OF
block in Broad-street, on the east side,
,.w rods north of India wharf. The alarm
was given little alter 9 O'Clock in the eve
ming. and the citizens assembled with the
engines, &c. in few moments, but the
flames ragged with violence, and all that was
combus,ble in the building where the hre
commenced, was consumed. The contigu-
Gus houses, were however protected. The
house burned was four stories high, and two
rooms ieep. An idea seems to prevail that
the IRE commenced IN the rear room of the
third story, by some use Of oil over the tre
in preparing quiIls-" dutthing quilts. =
This fire, in the melancholy destruction of
human life, has been more remarkabl than
any otherwe rccOllectin Boston. The house,
it is said, was inha biieG by a great number
OF persons-and among other parts the 4th
story was tenanted. From hence, lad
named Jackson. about l2 or II years of age.
escaped from the flames, lowering himself
down by the spout. A woman named lay
Tor having no other hope for safety, threw
herself from the same story, and was so
much injured that she soon died afterwards.
Mr. Patrick Jackson, his wife, and an aged
woman, aud two children persisted in tbs
FIRE. That remained of the victims TO the
flames have besn collected this morning, ex-
cept the remains of the aged woman, fol-
which search i. now making among the ru-
ms. Nos. OF the furniture in the house was
destroycd--ond much belonging to the neigh,
boring houses was greatly damaged. We
understand the house destroyed belonged to
Mr. VIM Welch.
