 The fire broke out at Q o'clock, on the 10th nlt. Tn the store of Comstock x Andrews, in Merchant street. This is narrow crooked street m the rear of the Exchange, formerly called Exchange street, and was altogether occupied by dry goods merchants, auction cers, &c. &c. The weather was intensely cold-thermomete below zero--the wind blowing gale, and the hydrants frozen so that all the efforts that could be made to ar rest the progress of the dreadful element were ln vain.
