 MR. ADAMs,-On Saturday evening, Aug. 30, we retired at an early hour, having been absent a few days. Soon after, the owner of the house, Mr. A. Northrop, called and requested candle to ob. tain something from the chamber in which his fur niture, Sc. was stored. This was about half past o'clock. You can have but faint imagination of my feelings when, about half past 10, the following cry aroused me "Get up f! Your house is on fire, fire" &c. On leaping from my couch found the room lighted from without, sprung .o my wife, carrying her to the next room. On passing out l found at one end of the ridge the flames rising ten or fifteen feet. Part of my clothing and furniture was saved-al my library isgone. The whole loss is from 500 to 900 dollars-no insurance My los: cannot be less than $2oO Myself and companion have abundant cause for gratitude that kind Pro vidence has preserved our lives, and that our lot has fallen among such sympathising friends.

 JOSEPH L. MORSE.
