| DESTITUTE BY THE FIRE LossEs.--Ye II
witnessing the scene of the late fires in the Fart,
District, we were grieved to behold some thirty o.
forty persons, male and female, old and Young
thrown on the bleak world without dollar, a din
ner or friend. One poor old widow woman
who had seen cheerful days, sat on the blackenet
ruins, weeping and weary, penness and pitiabIe
alone in this great world. Think of it, young belle
and dashing matron, with your warm parIors am
bounteous larders, your rich attire and social lux
ury, yoHr ballroom and opera box think of it
and ask yourself what it is to be old friendiess ant
poverty-stricken, alone in this great world Hat
we space to relate this poor aged womans pas
history-once the belle, then the happy wife, amor
the affiuent mother seeing the world roll in it,
bright glory, and being in and of it--had we space
to tell of this gay and sad life-turn, as the poor
weeping woman told it to us, then we think many
woman's heart in this good city would pulsatngly
cheerfuly respond to our hopes for relieving this
and other poor victims of the late fearful conflaera.

Robinson she threw pile of the "flimsey into
