THE FrRE.-The loss Of Mr. Winn and OF
Mr.. Emery by the burning of their machine
shop Friday night is estimated at $4,000, on
which MIR. Emery had insurance for s250O in
the Charter Oak Office, Hartford, and $3.50 in
the Piscataquis office, South Berwick. The
estate of the late Nathan Winslow, as mort
gagee OF Mr.. Vim, had 5000 insurance in
the Conway Office, Boston, and $500 in the
Phoenix office, Hartford.
We regret 10 learn that our fellow citizen
Thos. J. Sparrow, Esq, loses about $1,000 by
the fire. He owned the two stored part of
the building occupied by Mr.. VIM, and in
that he had large lot Of tools, models, &c.,
which were entirely destroyed, and no insur-
ance on them. The building next below the
machine shop, formerly bake-house, owned
by Mrs. John Elder, caught fire several times,
and 1t was only by active excrtions that it was
saved, and the fire prevented from running
through to Fore street. ~ efT
From w1sst we witnessed at this fire, we are
satisfied that the city ought to reorganize the
chain-gangs, and thus prevent people not be-
longing to the Fire Department from crowd
ing into the street where the fire occurs.
There would not be so much property stolen.
We saw at this fire women and men come
there with large bags to all with articles saved
from the ruins; and this is the case at every
IRE. Large parties rush at the alarm to steal
whatever they can lay their hands on. With
the organization of the chain-gang, these dep
relations would, in great measure, be pre-
vented, aud the fire department could work
with more ease and Quietness.

er one hundred persons on board, fifteen of

all night, and were brought off next morning
by the steamer Tigress. The boat was valued
at 5000, and will probably be total loss
She was loaded with goods and stores, which
were badly damaged.
The rebels are said to be terrifying Jackson,

The London Times again adverts to the ac-
ton OF the New York Chamber of Commerce,
touching the rebel steamer Alabama, and denies
that any blame can be attached to England.
Her ship yards are open to all. She does not
tit out ships of war, but sells the component
parts to all corners. 1t quotes President
Pierce's message to Congress in 1855 to show
what America considered her neutrality was
justified in doing during the Russian war, and
says England has never gone beyond or fully
up to these bounds. The American theory is
perfectly sound, and English neutrals sit at the
feet OF President Pierce.
The Daily News has a different argument.

for every paltry infraction OF the. obligations
to which its subjects may be tempted, but
