This morning at half p#st two o*clock, the bells gave the alarm ©f fire, which orinafasd in die brick building owo«d by Benjamio Birdfali, Esq. in the centre of the square bounded by Broadway, Howard, Mercer, and Grand streets, which was so completely wrapped in flames when discovered,, that all attempts to extinguish, them were considered futile,and,of course, abandoned. This building was about 80 feet long by 60 wide, and occupied by Messrs. Cornell, Althouse & Co. as an iion railing, door, and grate and fender manufactory, which was one of the most exten sive kind ia the country, employing a steam engine, and a great number of artificers. It

filled with manufactured

and unmanufactured atticl^s, and is an entire loss with the exception of what may be gleaned from the ruins beneath the wall*.

The flames soon extended to the adjacent houses, and seemed to threaten destruction to the wKole square, but fortunately there was a dead calfc,and the burning cindcrs ro£epertendicularly to an immense height.

The first house which caught from the burning factory was the five story brick building, fronting on Broadway, No. 441, occupied as a cabinet warehouse and manufactory, by Miller and Campbell. This, like the iron factory, became so suddenly ignited that no attempt was made to rescue it from destruction. The only property saved from it was a portion of the furniture on the ground floor. The entire building and all the contents of the four upper stories were in less than two hours a heap of smouldering ruins.

We annex a list of the buildings destroyed and injured, as far as we have been able to gain particulars:—

IN THE CENTRE OF THE SQUARE. The iror. factory, mentioned above, which is in the rear of 20,22 and 24, Mercer street.

v:" ON BROAD WAT.

No. 447, a brick house owned by Mr. Birdsall, and occupied by llirarn Miller, as an extensive carpet warehouse. Thd goods from this house were removed, und the building suffered materially in the upper 6tory and roof. Fully insured.

No. 445ft. owned by Mr. Birdsall,e.and occupied by L. Lewis, brai»s founder, 'l'hc house was considerably injured, and the iptiuiance ou the stock was §500.

No. 415, owned by Mr. Birdsall, and occupied by Mr. Grandjean, hair dresser— considerably injured.

No. 443, owned by Mr. Birdsall, and occupied by N. Ludlam, as a fancy hardware store. This house was slightly injured, and the goods partially insured.

No. 441, was the five story cabkite warehouse, mentioned above. The loss to Miller and Campbell we learn is from 9 lo $10,000 more than their insurance.— The workmen, we are sorry to say, lost all their tools in the general wreck.

No. 439, owned by Isaac Lawrence and occupicd by Peter Bayard, confectioner, and Mr. Watson, whose furniture was removed, was slightly injured. The house and No. 443 owed their safety entirely to the brick wails of the building in the centre, which rose some 15 or 20 feet above their roofa, which served as a protection to the raging fire within that lofty building.

The abov6 buildings, with the exception of the two great factories, were of three stories, and brick. And nil belonging to Mr. Burdsall were, we are informed,

Mr. Birdsall, who was tlie principal sufferer by this fire^as determined lo rebuild, without delay.

We agNted at the spot a short time dfthre^Pclock, jost in time to witness

flames which commenced at thai period on 1 Mercer street. The appearance of these houses, yielding to tbe fLune*,was indeed

threatening and alarming. I But that of the prodigious cabinct wareI house on Broadway, was appalling—for an 1 hour it raged like the occan in a tempest, I mocking the impotcncy of man to arrest ils coune.
