the Loss.

BOSTON, Nov. 10-Sunday, 9 o'clock P. NJ
The party of 400 Portland business men on
their arrival at once struck to Dock Square,
and were glad to find the Fsneuil Hall and
Market intact. Crossing into State street we
found everything safe except the rear part of
the Post Office. A general survey of the bnrnt
district was made which was greatly impeded
by the guards of police and the Ninth Regi-
ment and a detachment of Cavalry. The area
is not SO great as was reported on the route
down to Boston. The area extends from Sum-
mer street on the south to Water and Central
street on the north and from the southeast side
of Washington on the west to Federal and
Battery-Marcb ON the eastward side; on Kilby
street the fire extended to within few stores
of State street. The best of order now pre-
walls and the military guard the district well,
while thousands Of people press for admission
to streets which bound the fire. The firemen
have displayed the utmost heroism in combat

jaded out; still the engines are at work in put
ting out the fires in cellars, while the gas pipes
and coal heaps are burning brightly, present.

great Portland fire of '66. A portion of Wash

Many Portland men have interests in prop

than they feared Real estate men estimate
the value of the buildings lost at one hundred
millions, and the stocks are valued at as much
more. Very large and valuable stocks of dry
goods, shoes and leather, and wool were on
hand, and recently laid in for the fall trade. 1t

Association of the Portland Fire Department
are to give band concert and grand ball at
City Hall next Friday evening Tht entertain
ment is for the augmentation of the relief fund,
which has been materially reduced by the late
heavy drains upon it. 1t is hoped that our citi-
zens generally will respond to so worthy an OBJ
ject We append some statistics in regard to
the association:
The association has paid from it's treasury
since its organization, for the relief of members
who have been injured or rendered sick while
in the discharge of their duties as firemen, the
sum of $4989.
A large proportion of this amount has been
paid during the past ten years. owing. undoubt-
edly to the fact, that as our city increases
in business and consequent wealth, build
ings are larger are built higher, and, are
nine times out of ten more hazardous to the
life and limb of those whose duty it is to enter
them when on fire.
One member of the Fire Department, injured
Aug. Z, 1858, has been since that date, and is
now, under the kindly .ministrations of the Re-

bers, that so long as he lives, his weekly stipend
shall be forthcoming.

deep anxiety in this city, whose interests are SO
closely connected with those of Boston. The
news received here at six p. M, that the fire
was under control, afforded great relief to our
whole community. The Union National and
Eastern Insurance offices of this city suffer
heavy losses by the fire, but not they say, to
an:extent in the least affecting their solvency.
The Nationals state that their monthly receipts
will cover the extent of their losses and that
their business will be uninterrupted. The
