Disastrous Fire.

At late hour on Sunday Evening,
an alarm of Fire was sounded through
our streets, and a lurid mass Of flames
lighted up the North Eartern portion
of the City A trip towards the fire
showed it to be the Cutlery Manufac-
tory of j. Conner & Co., short distance
from the City, on the East Fork. The
Engines all started for the scene Of con-
lagration but the No SIS was the only
one which reached the spot, the 2's
having broken the tongue and the
steamer a spring on the trip. Two
streams were put upon the fire and
succeeded in saving nearly all the
machinery. The Building was entirely
destroyed together with large amount
of finished and unfinished stock. There
was an Insurance of $4,000 on the es-
tablishment, and the probable aggre-
gate loss will reach $4,000.
