Fires-Chri.tian Cburch Burnt.

Vest .rdly morning about O'clock fire broke
out in the carpenter saop of H 4rtey l. Atkssou on
hi sh street, between Broad and Demumbraue., The
shop consumed together with some materials.
Il said that this hre was evidently the work OF an
incendiary.
While the 6remen engaged at the above
confagralion the Christian Church, on Cherry street
just above Spring, was discovered TO be 10 flames,
aud the Ere Companies made all possible haste to
th At building save IL, if possible, and prevent the
further progress of the deVouring element. high
wind was blowing from the southwest at the time,
and the flames spread rapidly that the whole
Church was soon completely enveloped in them
Ali efforts TO save it proved sboruve, and the FIRE
men turned their attention TO the adjoining bouses
several of which were in great jeopardy The dwell
ing of James Walker, Eco, which stands only few
feet from che site Of the Church, sevsrsi times
on fire, but owing TO the intrepdity aud hsrculean
lIbors OF the fremen, it saved, although sus-
tanning some damage, did also some of It's furai
ture. Fortunately, when the dome aud spire fell
H. the aorth aud east walls Of the Church remained
standing, thus protecting in great measure the
buildings ia the direction which the wind blew. The
house OF K. j Morris, Esq, being the next house

doubtless owes its preservation in great degree,
TO the standing wall above ferred TO- as well as to
its own fire wall
The destruction Of the Church, and It's furniture,
(none Of which saved,) is estimated at $40 900,
on which there no Insurance.
As to the origin of the FIR. there are various re-
ports and coujeetures, the most probable OF which

High street, several buildings In various locali-
ties, we learn, took FIRE from toe same source.
ANOTHER About O'Clock P. H., yesterday, the
static of B. S. Weller, ST., Cherry street south
OF Church, was discovered TO be on fire. The flames
bor,l forth 10 great body, 10 consequence the *
nation Of combustible matter in the stable, aud al
most immedAt, ~ communicated to the rear portion
or ch of Mr.. Welers residence. The ell was Of con-
siderable length, and the upper portion was oeeu-
pied by persons boarding with MS w. The fur
niture, between fire, water, and the ln-judged eff.
forts Of individuals in removing H. is almost eOu-
pletsy ruined. few articles only we're saved in
tolerabie state Of preservation. The roof and
considerable portion of the interior of the building
viii have to be rebuilt. Besides all this loss, Mrs

in her wardrobe and eaunot be found, the ward
robe having got broken in lis removal and the moU-
