A sa5o.ooe BLAZE.

NEW YORK, n. y, Aug. 5.-The
Penn sylvania Central railroad depot
at Jersey City took fire last night and
was totally destroyed. The flames
spread so rapidly and the heat was
so great that the firemen and
employees were prevented from saving
anything on the shore while the tug
boats could not get near to tow out the
ferry and freight boats and these were
swept away in the general destruction.
The depot piers also burned,
thus involving the loss of all
the freight and the cars upon them
The wind was light but yet sufficient
to give fierce northerly direction to
the flames. The ruins OF the depot
have been smolderiDg all day and the
engines are still at work. All travel
from the depot is suspended.
