FIRE AND Loss OF LIrE.--A slip from the Office
Of the Trenton State Gazette mentions the desruc-
tion by fire OF the old True American Inn, on Mill
Hill yesterday morning. while the inmates were
all asleep. John Bozer, bcarder, had barely
time to escape with his life after running to The
front room and awakening two men who were
lodging there. These men did not escape, and
their black crisped remains were taken from the
ruins The trunks of the bodies, shapeless and
oaoss shocking sight, without the legs, and one
them without head, are all that remain. A poor
roman, in delicate situation, shrieked in vain
from third story window, the stairway being cut
OFF BY dense smoke and FIRE. No ladder could be
found and she jumped ont and is severely injured.
A little girl years old, promised to follow her,
but did not and was burnt--her remains being
found in the ruins.
The innkeeper and inmates were all Germans,
the two mon burnt having been there but few
days. Four persons escaped The severe storm,
retarded the engines. The house was the head
quarters of General Washington on the I'd OF jan
uary, i777, being the place where the council was
held which DECIDED upon the march upon Prince
ton.

The STREET CoNrRAcroRs.-These gentlemen,
it seems have been made responsible for the action
of the elements; and have become exceedingly
obnoxious for getting up the last great fall of
snow, whereby streets have been SO greatly en-
numbered. The Plebean, and the Sun (tha, vsry
neutral paper) having been foremost in requiring
these func.ionaries to take the responsibility of
the weather. we hope they will have the fairness
not to say the dscency, 10 give those gentlemen
credit for the warm rain of Monday night and yes
.erdsy morning, which has carried of, the snow al
most as rapidly as it came. 1t rained very hard
nearly all day yes,arday, but in the evening and
through the night the sky was clear and the air
warm. The labor of thousand mea for a fort
nigh, could not have cleared our streets half as
thoroughly as this single shower has done it.
