Clsys, Franklins, and Taylors; areas were choked
with carpets, mattresses, feather BEDS and crock
cry. The sufferers were searching the more for
tunate parts of the city for apartments to which
to remove their families, and such portions OF
their goods as escaped destruction. Carmen were
busy loading and taking away goods from every
corner; parents were looking for their children,
and children for their parents; fremen, weak and
exhausted from over labor, were vending their
way homewards; drunken rowdies and thieves
were brawling and disappearing; In short, such a
scene as was presented in unfortunate Brooklyn
yesterday morning, not presented since the
memorable great fire IN New York.
