Business was entirely suspended yesterday.
All the stores down town were closed, the
streets piled up with goods saved from the fire
Hundreds Of wcmen and children lookingior
shelter. There were a few merchants "on
Change but the only conversation ran OIL
TIE probability of the Insurance Offices being
likely or not to meet their engagements
The correspondent Of the Ledger also writes
as follows, on the same afternoon:
spent a very melancholy hour this fore.
noon amongst the ruins, which are strictly
guarded by the military and the police. Max
ing my way into what was New street, found
about twenty firemen actively engaged in re-
moving the ruins Of the store adjoining that in
which the fire commenced, fer the purpose of
recovering the body Of MIR. Augustus Cewdrey,
a promising young member of the New York
Bar, and of the company Of the Empire En-
CINE, No. AZ.
1t is now reduced to q moral certainty that
his remains ale beneath the cumbrous and
smoking pile. While making my way through
the heat, smoke and ashes of Broad street, the
bodies OF two men were taken from the IuiEs Of
a store adjoining that in which the explosion
took place. They were in such state that it
was impossible to distinguish them further than
that they were human remains; but it is sufi-
cienGy certain that they were two porters at
tached to the store who were engaged in res
cuing the goods, but were involved in the great
crash produced by the explosion.
A couple of hours previous, charred and
mangled corpse was exhumed from the ruins
Of the second store below that which sprang
the deadly mine. That also was the corpse OF
a man employed in the store in the capacity of
Z laborer, and who shared the fate of the two
porters.
These four deaths are all that have, as yet,
been positively ascertained. il is pretty GER
tain, however, that female persisted in one OF
the houses Of New street, and iremen, who had
been on the ground most of the time, since the
commencement ofthe confagraton, assured me
that at least ten, and probably twelve lives had
been lost.
The occupants of most of the public and pri-
vate houses on the West side of Broadway, from
Grace Church to Morris street, who yesterday
morning abandoned their domiciles to their
fate, which seemed inevitable, have mostly re-
turned to them, though their loss of furniture,
which was removed into the Battery, and the
public streets, must have been immense-espe-
ciallyin ruined pictures of great value and cost
ly parlor furniture.
Very many escapes from destruction, some
Of them really marvellous, occurred during the
raging of the devastation. That of Mr.. Hart,
member of Engine Co. No. ~, who was
blown from the roof of the store on Broad-st,
in which the explosion took place, to the roof
of another store, on New-st-a distance of pro-
baby $50 feet-and who landed on his feet,
and sustained no other injury than slight
bruise of his ankle, is an occurrence so nearly
incredible that would not give credence to it
till had it from his own lips as well as those
Of eye witnesses.

took place al No. 10 Greenwich ST. NJ. Henry,
son OF John Carey, died Of consumption while
the fire was raging, and while the flames were
spreading to such an extent that it was sup

FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE FIRE II
NEW YORK.


We have bu: few additional particulars u
the great fire in New York. The correspon-
dent of the u. S. Gazette, however, in the fol-
lowing letter, written Oh Sunday afternoon,
says
1t will be some time before il can be asccr-
tanned how many lives are lost, but have no
doubta great number have persisted. have
lust seen the bones of two men exhumed. 1t
is supposed that they were those Of the porter
and cafman of Messrs. Olrichs & Cugar, as
they were found in the ruins of that establish
ment on Broad street.
a number Of men, women, and children are
missing, and from what can learn J have no
doubt that upwards of fifty people have perish
ed-but such has been the intensity Of the fire
that probably one half OF their remains will
never be discovered. The cause of the explo-
sion at the fire is still matter Of disputC
Crocker s. Warren's store contained not only
upwards of 1000 bags of saltpetre, bat large
quantity of shellac, the gases from which, uni-
ting, would certainly be dangerous-but there
are d number of men ready TO affirm that they
were cautioned to keep away, as the store con-
tanned upwards of go kegs Of gnnpowder.
Our public authorities have acted thus far in
a manner beyond all praise, and trust they
will find out the cause of such dire loss OF life.
The losses by our insurance companies are
heavy, and some Of them will not be able to
rarru on

Tribune, with weighty carpet bag slnng by
an old umbrella over his shoulder, and making
his way with huge strides apparently toward
the Staten Island landing, for jaunt into the
country.
At intervals, the booming Of the walls or
roofs falling in, would come TO the weary
watchers on the Battery-a sound OF gloom
and dread. And yet we thought we observed
a degree Of fortitude and Composnre amid those
unhappy groups, such as was by no means to
have been expected. Not tear did we see
not a sob, hardly sigh, did we hear, even a.
-nong the women and young children. Many
families, homeless as they were, surrounded
their little stock of furniture, took breakfast,
apparently-and it was but apprentices
merTly and with as much gusto, IN that pleas
ant air, and under the shade Of the trees, as
though they knew where they should lay Their
heads that night-which not one in twenty did
know.
