from the Norfylk J9urnsl !

Now hat the agony Of the first sudden
net i over, we deem il due 10 the public
-4.t this melancholy occurrence should be
made a Salutary lesson, which may operate
il some degree as 4 preventive OF similar
accidents in future. Within the last five
- we have published accounts OF the de-
s.-QctiOn, by tire, OF one hotel in Kentucky,
smother III New jersey, and the SDotSWoOd
iii richmond. The last was the saddcst,
hccau>e Of the lrightfGl loss Of life, and be-
cause il was nearest home.
The frequency of these calamtieS should
admoni>h Us Of the uncXpreSsible import
anc" % adopting every conceivable safe
-uaTQ--fir>t, for the avoidance OF fires !;
secondly, for the egreSs OF occupants OF
Buildings in case Of fire.
In addition to the recommendations
already made by US, we would advise that
in al! large hotels there should be on every
lror q trusty man, awake and Watch1ul
from an early hour in the night until sum
n" n the morning, whose duty IL should
J." u exercise a careful vigilance through
o4C The night over the CRATES and gas fix
tues, and LIGHTS of all sorts, The stairs,
soe, should always be made OF iron; and
there should, if practicable. be more than
one stairway from each floor.
Unless something is done to secure life
IN the large hotels against sucn accidents as
he burning OF the Spotswood, the upper
rooms Of such ed1ices will soon be at 4
discount with travellers as we'll as resident
i,UarderS.
These fire warnings are terrible. Let us
al profit by them.

consider as 10 some means OF so regulating
