The REPORTED DESTRUCTION or Sr JoHS.-
In another column will be found an account. re-
published from our afternoon edition of yesterday.
OF the destruction of the city of ST. John. New
foundland, by fire. There has been no extensive
conflagraton in that city since 1915 In the three
years, 1876, 1877, 1918, the city suffered severely
from three successive fires. The account which
we publish to-day. represents the entire CITY as
having been consumed I; but this report is doubt
less exaggerated.


Al all events, there seems TO be little doub, Of
the occurrence of a very disastrous conflagration
in that city. This is the fourth time within year
that the British North American provinces have
been visited with calamitous fire. Quebec has
been but lately visited, for the third time within a
year, with an awful calamity, resulting in dread.
tu loss OF life and property; and now St. John.
the capital OF another province Of British Ame-
rica, has been afflicted by another tremendous
calamity.


We shall probably have the particulars in a dsv
on 60.
