FIRE IN ELMIRA. —About 4 o'clock, on
Sunday morning, the 12th inst., the boarding house kept
by Mrs. ELLEN Waito, in Elmira, was entirely destroyed
by fire. The Press says that the fire originated in a room
occupied by one of the borders, who came to the house in
a state of intoxication, and probably set fij;e to his bed
by the careless use of a lighted candle. As soon as the
alarm was given a son of Mrs. WAKD went up to the
room and endeavored to extinguish the fire, but was so
strangled by the smoke and hot air that he could Dot ac
complish his object. Most of the furniture was saved,
but the building was an entire loss, as the insurance on it
expired some time since and had not teen renewed. The
loss is probably between three and four thousand dollars.
