119 counting-houses; atJ notwithstanding the
; exertions, of thefire-mastera and citizens, it
1 was not got undar till it had destroyed the.
whole of that extensive building. . To make
an estimate of the property destroyed with
the building, would at this time be impossi
ble, but from the best calculation that could
be made at the moment, it was conjectured
thai between five and six hundred bales of
Cottan.' and from I 2 to 15,00 barrels of Rice,
were either consumed or destroyed.
The Stores were the property of Mr. Wfl
. liam Roper, Planter, and together with the
wharf, were rented by Messrs Waring and
Smith, whose loss on this melanchollv occa
sion will "undoubtedly be very ureal 1 The '
persons who were owners of the properly lost,
it isimpossible to designate , part belonging
, to Plancers, and part to Merchants ; yet altho',
"the loss in itself is a serious one, its falling
on a considerable number of persons will fen-;
lt der it less distressing'.'", r ';7 ?.-!!,'( :
The origin of this unfortunate accident is
unknown t By some it is attributed to accident
!c by others itis conjectured that it may have
, originated in the cotton itself, as the heat of
V that article, when in large compact bodies, is
said to have sometimes created a shouldering
fire and consumed itself. ." . '
