WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 17,1866. PBEVENTION AND CUKE. Two or three thousand houses burned, and twenty thousand persons made homeless, in Quebec; a serious conflag ration at Ottawa, Canada Weßt, and the destruction by fire of an entire square in Ashland, in the- central part of our own State, are the reported doings of one day’s operations of the fire-king. This huge destruction of property, the con sequent misery that it must inevitably entail, and its detriment to the general progress and prosperity of the world, should prompt men to the discovery of some means to prevent such serious disasters. All known mechanical contrivances have been applied to the extinguishment of fires; but unfortunately there is not sufficient attention bestowed upon the subject of j preventing such calamities. The greater portion of Quebec is composed of stone buildings roofed with tin, > where the wood-woTk is sheathed o packages Cotton and Woolen i cmtstlcs. fox cash.
