buildings in our country; and Of these clean
sveep seems TO hayo been made-in Summer,
Bedford, Milk, Franklin, Federal, DevOnshire,
Pearl, Arch, Broad, and Kiby-sts and
Winthrop-place. The buildings here were
all or nearly all, of massive structure. III
we estimate their value exclusive OF land, at
from eighty TO one hundred Millions it would
not, in the opinion of competent judges, DO above
their real cost, or certainly beyond tho cost Of
rebuilding Mt the present time. The losses in
merchandise may be estimated at from
thirty to forty millions. 1t is not then,
improbable that the aggregate loss by this
great disaster may reach an amount Of from
$l2O08OOOO to $l5O,OOO,6)0.
Fortunately the losses fall mainly upon
class more able to endure them than in the
Chicago calamity; but still there viii be great
distress and suffering. Many a business man
who went home on Saturday afternoon inde-
pendent, finds himself to-day destitute (;
many an opulent merchant will now be
obliged to Struggle to keep his head above
water. Parts of High, Lincoln, South, and
other streets south of SUmmer-st. were COM
posed of tencment-houses, occupied by poor
people. Among these there must BIO Il
great deal Of suffering and distress and it will
be charity well bestowed TO contribute to their
relief 10 that end we trust the wealthy and
benevolent Of New-Yorl, viii exert themselves
to assist The citizens of Boston in distributing
contributions with n liberal hand. In
regard to the merchants who have been
the most conspicuous victims Of this calamity,
it is almost superfluous to say that the most
liberal accommodations and the greatest in
diligence should be granted while kindness
in every way should be extended to a noble,
suffering city, which has always itself been
prompt to aid other cities and communities
afflicted by sudden ard unexpected mistor-
tunes.
1t is perhaps premature to calcu'ate tlc e.
feet Of this calamity upon the business inter-
ests Of the country. Chicago WAS a debtor
city. Boston is undoubtedly a creditor city,
and has capital scattered in various ways over
Tie whole country New-York i.solf is doubt
less debtor TO Boston if the lalance were
struck and it is probable that drafts upon these
resources OF Eo,tOL's wealth will cause
some disturbance. Still the relations Of
the two cities arc SO clos and init
mate in business matters that the move
mCnts Of capital are not likely TO be
abrupt and whatever the effect may be, we
are not liable to any severe or immediate
trouble 1t is reasonably clear, however that
from alO0OCOO0O to s1Jo,OOO,OCO las been swept
ont of existence, IN actual loss which must be
borne, directly or indirectly, by people in BOs-
ton, New York, and other citic'. no man Of
business can say with confidence that lie VIII
escape cndrely the effects of tbs catastrophe,
for he may feel it through fl MS hero and
there, and in ways Of which he little dreams.
In all its aspects, therefore, We regard 1t as
very great national misfortune.

BUSINESS ASPECTS.

Wall-at. took the Boston fire far more qui-
ely than many had expected. There was
nothing like the panic that followed Chicago.
Stocks fell off from to per cent, and then
recovered from 2 to 4 per cent of the loss.
Better than all, the feeling, though anxious, is
hopeful and we arc sure the whole country
will breathe more freely as it learns how it's
financial capital has met the shock.
Opinions in regard TO the extent of the
loss differ considerably but from n care
full comparison Of estimates made by men
familiar with tho localities, wo conclude
that the loss mast be over $l0OOOO00O.
The burnt district embraced within ITS area the
most costly and elegant stores in the city,

At last the flames which have laid waste
the business center Of Boston are fairly
oueled Men begin to survey the field and
look squareIy. in the face the great disaster
Perhaps it is rot too much to say that the
proportions of the calamity diminish rather
than increase as they are scanned. A people
already wrought to the highest excitement,
were sure to be greatly alarmed by such an
outbuTst as that which occurred yesterday
morning, when an explosion of escaping gas
caused new fire, which threatened to plunge
into another rich region of the city. But the
flames were stayed, and Westinghouse. still
remains the Northeastern boundary of
the district laid in ashes. With these
alarms about them and the ruins still
blazing, it Is too soon to expect clear state
Inent from tho Boston insurance companies.
Most Of them are reported to be in cOndi
ton to pay at least fifty per cent of their
losses, while few companies outside of Boston
are broken. So much at least is reassuring
and cheering in the midst of the general con-
fusion.
~ for the total loss, it is variously esG-
mated bat scarcely any local authority puts
n at q largor amount than S100,00O000. Bos-
ION Offices hold risks amounting TO S3O0OO,0OO
The area burned is now ascertained to comprise
GO acres; this space was nearly all embraced
An the Fifth Ward, which contained a poplla-
ton Of 141CG, according to tho last census

some time ego attention was called to the
fact that the gas companies were charging
greater prices to the City Jlan to private Gus
toners. 1t was also ALLEGED chat a greater
number of burners were included in the gas
bills than were really in the streets and parks,
for lighting which the City pays so dearly.
The Board of Audit have carefully examined
this matter It appears and in allowing claims
of cas- companies, yesterday, q deduction Of
s21417O g was made from the whole amount.
This is q considerable saving, and, if final.
may DO properly credited to the account OF
official vigilance.

The wonderful rapidity with which Chicago re-
covered from the effects of her great fire give
assurance that Boston Will also before long, retrieve
her losses in the recent calamity Not only has the
population Of the Lake City increased during the
past year. but her general prosperity has advanced,
even when duo allowance is made for the natural
increase of wealth that would have taken place had
no great disaster occurred Ii appears FROM the
statistics of the twelve months since the fire, COM
pared with those Of the year 1870 that the receipts
of grain have been % per cent greater; that the
wholesale trade has advanced from S402,0O0,00O to
$780, 100000 while the value of the manuiac-
tured products has increased moro than Ono-third.
The rebuilding of the New Chicago displays similar
evidence of the indomitable spirit of her people.
Nearly eight miles of permanent magnificent build
ings have been erected ut cost Of moro than
SiO,OOOOOO. betrayed mainly by enteprisng citizens
who never lost confidence in the advancement Of
their city. Not printing Office was left by the fire
in AL Chicago except few job Offices, and all tho
leading newspaper establishments were destroyed
Now the city - amply supplied with presses; all
the principal journals have revived, and tho leading
one, The Tribune, has u larger circulation. greater
receipts aud liner building than before the fatal
9th Of October. In view of these facts no one need
doubt that Reaugdm would form an appropriate
motto for devastated Boston.

Ii may be q little late, but it is, neverthe-
less. rood that The Board Of Aldermen have
passed an ordinance fcIbidding the construc-
ton Of Mansard roofs in this city, except Of
freprocf materials. What constitutes " fire.
"proofr materials is, perhaps, an open question;
but Iel, is no difference Of opinion as to the
need Of enacting severe regulations applying
to the building Of these fro-traps on top of
city structures. Boston and Chicago have
proved how dangerous are these inflammable
architectural fancies hanging high in the air.
Ncw-Yolf, which has innumerable slight Man
sard roofs far out Of the reach Of the fire en-
giues, may fnd to its cost that framing on
roofs structures forbidden on the ground is
inviting calamity. The warning has been
often repeated; the proposed precadtion is
not taken a day too soon.

There was n lady in our land
\ She dressed SO very fine
She was courted by Doctor
He courted her so kind;
And when they were married
J He took her to his clan
J, And played on the Instruments
And says, MARY Pm Your man."
Then he took her TO his Shanty
Near the Springs Of great renown,
And left Mary sadly weeping
/ While he hired him to- Washington
With his fancy cOncnbines;
/ There he turned himself around
And scowls upon poor Mary
And says "yOu are none Of mine."
There the Doctor cut shine,
And dressed himself 40 fine;
He walked the streets Of Washington
With his fancy coDcubines:
He turned himself So proudly,
Aud thought 10 give poor Mary pain,
And says to her 'our children
never will maintain"
Then S-G-he courted her,
lie courted her so kind;
He told her he had house
Two stories high and fine:
Now s. c. is very rich,
And his farm brings rich returns.
And he TELLS the widow 10 marry him
And it shall all be "HuRN."
Then S. -G-was very dumb
And straight he went away,
For Mary told him he needn't come
~ -. l..
Though Mary labored very hard
To get her dresses fine,
Yet she tells the gentlemen,
She will never Aarry them for "quOin."
On the great dav of celebration.
When the ladies all turned out,
With their glorious bands OF music
And their flags, and boys to shout;
Then came Mary walking by.
Twas the fourth of July 50 bright;
And whispered in her ear,
And she said it was "all right"
Her cherry cheeks, her ruby lips,
Her sparkling eyes SO kind;
l never shall forget
The day she promised to be mine.
Though her enemies opposed her,
Auu ITleu ~ Sct ucG uoWu,
Yet Mary pledged her life she'd he my
w-sfa
And for my sake she'd die.
When the winds began TO blow.
Aud the leaves began to fall,
Then we went TO Petersburgh,
And on the clerk did call.
Then the people took their flight
And then they ran away
And gathered up their Bells
A shivcrrea" to make.
Twas on the lst Of October
When we made the written pledge,
Forsaking all the rest
Because we loved each other best
She LETT her mother all alone
And moved her things to inc,
She says she's married an honest man
That will never cause her to grieve.
