The Fire in Nae Jcrsey, of witch public men
ton has at last been made, is really alarming.
Day after day, urged by The winds, and fed by
miles OF forests dried in the heats ofsumner, the
flames have ragged and spread. BY night pill
Iar of cloudy fire stretches over half the State;
and by tbs bilIowy nasses of smoke mounting
snhlimely into the air, appear like one vile sea
Of fire. We have watched these da3liing piles
for hours from he heights OF BordentoWn, aud
their effect is sometimes wonderfully grand.
The odour OF burnt pine scents the atmosphere
for leagues on every hand; and by day the fii-
ming volumes rise as necessarily al evening,
being sometimes many coored from the sun.
An immense amount OF lumber and other
property must have been wrecked IN this econ
Stunning fire." Nothing but thunder storm can
arrest -aud even that, if but of short DURATION
would tail. 1t will he Il marvel, if no lives are
lost in this far spreading gration.-I'hI.
