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.

Ma. Oakiit: I believe ittheduty of every

of their fellow man, and having had pochiva
proof in my own fomily.of the wonderful properties
of your Depumtive Syrup of Saranparilla, I most
conacientioualy recommend it to the sfflirtcd. 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. Asa purifier of the blood, I verily be
lieve it has not its equal.

Ma. Oaklkt :--My son Edmund Leaf, had ihe
scrofula in ihe most dreadful and distressing man
ner for three years, during which time he was de
prived of the use of his limbs, hia he id and neck
were covered with Ulcers. We tried all ihe differ

by Dr. Johnson of NonUtuWn, and also Dr. Isaac
Hiester, of Reading, to Use your Depurnlive Symp
of Sarsspatilta, of which I obtained sevrisl bottles,
the us of which d'ove the disease entirely out of
his system, the sore healed up, and the child waa
resloied to perfect health, which he haa enjoyed
uninterruptedly ever since, to the aatonibhmisit of
many persons who seen him duiing bis affliction.
I have thoucht it my duty, and send you this ceiti
