BOSOM.

EE
 The burning of a very important if not very large part of the city of Boston, com ing 50 soon after the appalling Western calamities of last year, not only shock the public with the magnitude of the disaster, but give rise to apprehensions even great CT than those that followed the burning of Chicago. The doubt arises whether all our great cities are not so badly planed that, one after another, they must all un- dergo the terrible ordeal by fire.
 The circumstances of burning Boston differ from the circumstances of burning Chicago in no particular that the wit of man can avoid, except by actual rebuild ing. .-... .-t..s-. ...... ...t ......
 While the wind was strong from the south, the heat of the Boston fire was of tine same intense, overpowering kind as made the Chicago fire irresistible. The inability of solid, granite fronted build
 ings to resist this heat was the same in this case as in the other, and the high Mansard roofs proved over again how dangerous and absurd it is to allow story of wood to surmount five or six stories of brick or stone in the narrow and crowded business streets of great city. Nothing, it would seem, but fortunate Hull of the wind saved Boston from the fate of Chicago .- . .'e : --.
 Does not this great fire teach the East that the case of Chicago was not a pecul- iar one-that all American cities are open to thesame liability-that narrow streets, high buildings, and wooden roofs, are ut terly incompatible with safety. ......
 In one respect, happily, the great East I------1 AA-- ey-~-t ur--I-----4 4R..ns ~-- very dissimilar. While the former occasions half the loss, it does not cause tenth part of the suffering that resulted from turning the population of half city home less into the street. Moreover it is not the struggling laborer or the petty retailer that loses his all, but the wealthy whole sale dealer, to whom loss does not mean as we'll ruin as famine. ,..atE ,t............
 In pluck the two great centres of Yan- kee energy seems not to differ. Disaster is powerless to retard the progress of ei ther; and the business of the country is scarcely aware of the blows that have fal- len suecessively on the Hub of the great West. and on its companion at the oppo- site end of the axle in the great East.
