Destructive Confagration-Loss@ Of City and Theatrical Pro-

Our citizens were surprised last night, between the
hours Of and two O'clock by the breaking out Of
large and destructive fire Main street, which resulted
in the consuming of Mechanics Hail. large and commo.
dous building, containing on its ground floor several
handsome sores and above well constructed and spa
cious concert room. The fire supposed by certain
persons to have originated in the latter by some mis-
management in the extnguishng Of the lights Messrs
Briggs Co g Excelsior Opera Troupe having few
hours previously concluded their evening performance
there while others conjecture it have been the work
Of an incendiary.
The flames broke forth the rear Of Mechanics Hall
