The alarm proceeded from the Car Repair Shop, north-east of the Pcftot of the New York & Erie Rail Road. Before the Engines which were promptly on the ground, could he got to work, the fire had ienveloped the entire building, aud from the it was evident that nothing could he done except prevent the spread of the flames to other buildings, of which there was little dan ger The Shop was entirely consumed. The principal loss must lie in tools, as the building ka> not valuable. The entire loss will not ex ceed SSOO. rt is said that there was large quantities of material for cleaning the cars mix ,'j with oil in the shop, and it is more than probable that the fire originated from some thing of this kind. If spontaneous eombus tion can occur from oil and cotton, it had as good an opportunity here to try itself as it could iind tl-ewhere. The Fire Companies aud the citi zens generally, were promptly on the ground, and all that could be done was done. Capt. Fox. the Chief Engineer of the Fire Depart ment. was on hand with the first, and directed in getting water from the reservoir. The wa ter was lowered into the box of the Engine the same way it is poured into the tender of the steam engines.— Oirrgo Times. \t Rome, I'ii., Jiilv 22d, by Rev. P. Cook.
