On yesterday Thursday, about half mast
eleven O'Clock. one of a block of wooden
buildings was discovered to be on FIRE. The
alarm was Immediately given, and we soon
had all the citizens Of Madisonyille there
numbering about two hundred persons But
before ladder could be procured. the flames
had reached such pitch that it was impos-
slble for them to be extinguished with buck
cts OF water. The building that first caught
was an unoccupied hotel. The fire then
caught Cropwell's store, and we thought it
useless to try and save the house, but com
menced removing all the stores and valua-
oles. The fire kept on from one house to
another, until 1t reached Capt Merritfs cor
ner, which, If the wind had not favored us,
would have burned, and no knowing where
1t would have stopped, and it required all the
labor and exertion that men were capable of
using to keep it checked. One man, MIR.
David Morgan, exerted himself to the ut
most and had wet blankets and his hat burnt
on him. Also one of Captain Merritt's SER
wants, John, had three blankets and hats
roasted off his back. 1t is supposed to have
originated from the sparks of kitchen
stove-pipe close by. Nine houses were burnt
altogether. id S.
