follows: Storage and building for manufacturing and
drying licorce brick boilerhouse, boilers aud evap
orators steam-engDe, cutting dyewoods, cutting ma
CHR es, storage rooms and Office The fire originated
in the stesm-engne building and thence rapidly
spread to the adjoining buildings. Two sets of men
were working in the establishment day and night, aud
one set was scattered throu yh the various buildings
when the fire was discovered.
The workmen brought several streams TO bear on
the flames but the fire had gained too great head way
and all attempts to extinguish it appearing futile, the
men tuned their attention toward saving the neigh
boring buildings.
Several Fire Companies from the village were
promptly on the grou I'd and rendered efficient service
They saved from destruction by their exertions some
500 or 600 cords of wood.
The six buildings with their contents, including ma
chinery were heap of ruins in less than two hours
after the alarm was given.
The business of the Company was manufacturing
corice end the various dyes used by dyers in this
City and elsewhere. No correct estimate can as yet
be made Of the loss it is not known what amount
Of merchandise there was in the various buildings.
The loss on buildings, machinery and merchandise
will not, however exceed 100000.
The following is list of the assurances on the es-
feblisbment.

NEw CAR-vrsrnGroR.-Repes,e attempts have
been inside to get up some plan whereby pure whole
some air may be introduced into railroad cars while
in motion, which shall at the same time be effective
in excluding the cinders and dust Thus far, how
ever these efforts have been only partially successful
On most of the great hcroughares Of the country the
ordinary cars are stu used and they are ventlsted
BY raising the windows and opening the doors, and
the consequence Is that those who make long journeys
in warn, dry weather look though they had wal
lowed in the sand and dirt But within a few days
nsw project has been devised by Mr. v T. Corbett Of
th. City which so far as we can discover promises
to secur, the end sought car has been fitted uF
according to the plan, and is now running upon the
New-York and New.Haven Railroad. The con-
tivance is very simple. A hoe made in the car q
covered by piece OF me Wue-ciOtni 1uen d ooA =
placed over it, in which are two swinging vaves-the
whole constructed TO admit the air and exclude
the dust. We can see no reason why the improve
ment viii not operate successfully as il seems to be
exactly right in theory. Any quaint OF air may be
let into the cars-you may have perfect hurricane
of breeze if it desirabe-whie there seems to
be difficulty in keeping out dust if you have tight
cars ard keep the doors and windows closed. Anoih-
er thing in its favor is the cost. halfdozen cars
may be fitted up for a sum not greatly exceedin,
$780, We sincerely hope the invention may be ex-
actly what it appears to be.
