CHI A r L E STON.
SATURDAY MORNING. JULY 21, 1866.
TIE BURNT. DISTRICT.

We have before us a copy of the Charles
ton Mercury of 18th December, 1861, in
which is contained tho announceme of
"The Great Fire" that was sweeping through
the city while the stained and ragged sheet
was then passing through the press.
Qnarter-pdst o'cloch-As the clock OF st.
Nichaels tolls the quarter, the Cathedral steeple
has fallen with tremendous crash. The Cathc-
drai is burning furiousiy; likewise St. Andrews
Hall and Mr. Petigrn's mansion and as the flames
have now crossed Broad-street and the wind has
not iulled the lire will not st. short of the river.
Such is the record as given in the last bull
letin, and the prophecy was fulfilled to the
letter.
A subsequent issue On the l7th gives the
dreadful details, filling six or eight columns
of that then enterprising paper; the list of
houses burnt alone occupies over four columns
of close set up type.
We could reprint much that would really
interest our readers, but We pass to the figures
Of losses. The Mercury says
The wild gucsses which were Mt first prevalent
have given way before close calculation, and we
are now able to present some reasonable views Of
the actual amount of losses and insurance. 1t is
safely estimated that the losses u real estate is
fully three ntut0n tUe hundred thousand d0harS.
On this there was insurance for about one million
five hundred thousa dollars only. The sweep
Of the contlagr alton was eighteen hundred yards
by an average breadth of three hundred yards.
The hopes entertained of o speedy restora-
tion Of the houses of the thousands who were
made houseless on that dreary night, have
never been realized. Wars stern realities
caused an entire abandonment of the proposed
rebuilding, and we are still kept in remem-
brance of that terrible calamity by the tot
tering walls and gaunt chimneys that come
to view constantly.
We have reverted to this great loss to
Charleston because we think the time is op-
perfume for inaugurating some measures look
ing at least to the making an honorable of
fort to negotiate loan of $3,OO0,ooO, with
which to rebuild our waste places.
It is proper to say that tho remarks of the
Hon. GEO. A. TRENHOLM, some weeks ago, at
the quarterly meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce, inspired very general hope in
the community that his clear and practicable
views would have ere this been called into
requistion by the proper authority, our City
Council. We do not profess to be able to de-
termine if such loan as Mr.. TRENHOLM
suggested could be negotiated but as plain
business calculation, with gold at SO premi-
'um, we venture the opinion that there are
some capitalists who would give preference
to per cent. bond, secured by mortgage
of that best of all securities, REAL ESTATE,
payable In currency, and eventually redeem
able in coin. Cannot some Alderman put the
ball in motion-and try2
