About / O'Clock this morning, one Of
the most destructive fires that has visited
us for years, broke out in the buildings on
Main street, opposite the Mansion House,
known sas Spaaldingt Exchange, Erie
Hall, Bank OF Att;ca, and several other
spacious stores, which were entirely cons
sumed. The fire extended down CONNER
cial and Floyd streets, burning several
valuable buildings on .ench street.. The
coldaess Of the night, and the scarcity of
wsfer, rendered il impossible to subdue the
fearful progress Of the flames.
w ff1iitis-sAis ito FIRE WAS raging, another.

Swan street, where private dwelling was
discovered to be on fire. The 6remen
could not divide their forces, and three
handsome dwellings wero consumed.

anything like the immense loss. The of.

Destruction Of the Congressional Ii

The Washington press, for several days
past, have given particulars Of the late con.
flagration within the Capitol. The burn.
ing of tho library is lobe deplored as ma,

say that many of the " orks destroyed were
TO be found no where else--and many oil
these have been regarded of indispensable
use. % The legislation of The country, and 10

that Library contained. For a long time
serious apprehensions for the safety of the
entire Capitol were feared, for had the
flames communicated to the cupoln, the
whole building would have been consumed.
As it is, the Library has been entirely
destroyed-nnd the damage to the walls

the loss. inflicted by this disastrous fire, it
is impossible to even estimate. Since act Of

The damage to the building must also be

which no expenditure of money, no toll,
or energy, can possibly again restore.
