Grout Fir at Wsw OHmniTn Squares In AihtiTno Hundred mid Klghtr Ilonsca Burned, The New Orleana papers bring us terrible ac counts of a disastrous fire which broke out at noon on Saturday, 10th inat., destroying nearly 300 houses principally frames, tenanted by poor peo ple. The long drought had made the buildings ignitable as timber. No water could be obtain ed, excepting from the gutters, and the confla gration took its own undisturbed course. The flames burst forth in the carpenter shop of Mr. Gott, near the northwestern corner of Franklin and Jackson streets, which, before they could be got under, spread to the adjoining tenements with frightful rapidity. The wind, fortunately, blew towards the swamp, and not towards the river, so the fire was carried with lightning rapidity down Jackson street, communicating to the houses on either side, and soon presenting a broad blaze some hundred of yards in width. To save their furniture was all that the unfor tunate residents of this section could hope to a thieve, and even in this they were many of them A appointed. In this way, says the Picayune, the fire raged for three hours, during which time it kept down Jackson street, burning out to Canal on the right and Common on the left, and cross ing Treme, Marais, Villcre and Robertson, to Claiborne streets, in all ten squares Of all the buildings which occupied this space, none are now standing save the Maiaan de Sante, or Dr. Stone's Hospital, and a few houses along Com mon street. At one time it was feared that the Charity Hospital would be destroyed, and it was a sorrowful sight to see its numerous inmates peering from the windows at the broad lake of destruction raging before them j but fortunately the flumes, although they leaped, roared and crackled in every direction, Hid not cross Com mon st. The Muison dc Punte was saved, but not until its inmates had been removed. To attempt to picture the scene, while the fierce element was raging at its wildest, were impossible. Houseless unfortunates were seen rushing through smoke nnd flames, and seeking a shelter which only proved temporary, for the flames were again upon them. Beds and bedding, furniture, groceries- in short every thing that could be moved in the hurry was seen piled and thrown together in Canal and Common sts., the owners Bitting upon the little wreck that was left to them of all their household store. Many of the inmates of the houses were laboring under sickness and infirmity, and their eyes rolled wildly as they were borne from their homes. .Mothers, half frantic, were searching for lost children children were rushing, with loud screams, amid the fierce crackling of the flames, and seeking their parents in every face. All was confusion and despair; but the most distress ing sight of all, perhaps, was the removul of the sick from the Maison de Saute. God grant we may never be called upon to witness such a spec tacle again. No estimate of the loss has yet been given, but it must have been very great, as a few of the houses were costly.

We had the miafortnne to oe two of our children, by the breaking out of ulcerous sores that Covered the face, head and neck, although we bad some of the most scientific physicians, lo attend them snd had tried all the known letnedies, including Swaiins' Panacea, without avail. Another of my children waa attacked in the smue manner, her lace and neck was completely covered; the discharge was so offensive, and the diaenae at such a height, that we despaired of her life. Seeing the wonderful effect of your Depurutive Syrup of Sarsapsrillu, we weie induced to make trial of it, as the last resort ; it acted like a charm; the ulcers commenced healing immediately, a few bottles entirely restored her to her health, which she has enjoyed uninleriuptedly ever since.
