Fine ~ GREENfirLD AND Loss OF LrE.--
The beautiful residence Of Daniel w. Alyord
and mother, Of Greenfield, was totally destroy
ed by FIRE at o'clock Thursday morning, 10Th
inst. The flames probably caught from de-
feet in the chimney. anl spread with such ra-
pidiiy that but snail portion of the contents
of the dwelling were saved. A little cUlored
boy, named Charles Taylor, living in the fam
lily Of Mrs Alvord, persisted ia the flames lilo
was once in place of safety, but during the
hurry and confusion it is supposed he went back
into the building to save some of the clothing
and was sullocated by the smoke. His remains
were found during Thursday afternoon. The
other inmates of the house barely escaped, and
saved but few articles of clothing. The por-
trait of Gen. Joseph Warren, which was high
ly valued by the family, was saved by Major
Reed. But a small portion of the valuable Ii
brary IN the house was preserved. Nearly all
the furniture was burned. The grounds around
the dwelling were tastily arranged with fruit
and ornamental trees, flowers, &c the greater
part of which are destroyed. The total loss is
about $4,000, insured in only S25OO at the
Franklin mutual office This is the second
time Mrs Alvord has been burned out within a
few years.

been swindled to the exten, in the aggregate Of

that amount OF exchange and shipped away to

been carried out successfully at the west, by a

that five thousand dollars were in the bags from
