              COLUMBUS, DECEMBER 249 o'clock, P. M. from the NerTork Commercial Adrtrtlier, Dec. 17. ' Dreadful Calamity!!! New-York lu been for Cilcon hours in flames! . They aro not ?ct exlinrlslied. A largo section, and that the sldest ur-i most wealthy portion of tbe city, it ju ruir"! and whether tho progress of the Dcstroye-" yet arrested we cannot tell. Since the corutagratiou of .Moscow, no calamity "y lire, so extensive, and so drcadlul, Las uolul-!n any ci'7 in the world. The fire broko out in Mpuhant streot, in the triangular block formed by Wall, William, and Pearl streets, at about nine o clock last night. A fierce wind was blowing from the north-west, and tho weath er so intensely cold as to render the efficient workings of the engines impossible. The consequents was, that the fire held the mastery through the night spreading with great and destructive rapidity. It was an awful night for New-York and the country. But we can neither describe the grandeur of the spectacle, nor its terrors, nor the desolation brought more distinctly to view by the morning light. The arm of man was powerless; and many of our fellow citizens who retired to their pillows in affluence were bankrupts on awakening. The fact of the poivcrlcssness of the firemen. from the almost instantanoous congelation of tne water and the benumbing influence of the cold, increased the consternation which prevailed among the thousands of the agitated multitude who were witnesses of the calamity many of them doomed to stand and see the destruction of their own fortunes, without being able to lift a finger for the rescue. To arrest the flames was at once seen to be impossible, save by the blowing up of ranges of buildings in advance of the fire, that its progress might thus be interrupted. Hut the difficulty was to obtain powder none of conscqunce being allowed in the city. A sufficient supply, therefore, could nut be obtained short of the Navy Yard whence, also, the mayor was obliged to send for a strong military force to preserve properly from the swarms of robbers who are ever ready on such occasions. What a commentary upon tho depravity of man ! Such is tho confusion that prevails, aud such tho difficulty of working one s way among the (moke, and lire, and heated ruins, that it is impossible to detail particulars with any pretension to accuracy. Ilclovv, wo have given the account prepared fur the .Mercantile Advertiser ono of the two surviving morning papers at the late hour at which that paper went to press. The conflagration continued to extend fur some hours nftcrivard. The reader may form some opinion of the magnitude of the calamity, by tho following statement, prepared by consulting the map after wo had walked around the ruins for the purposo of a delihcrato survey. 1 South sido uf JFall sired, from WiltiamVtreet to East river, including the .Merchants' Ex-Chnnpo, and cx .cpting some three or fuiir buildings between .Merchant street (funnel)' Ilam-ver) and Pearl. Also from William to Broad, buildings nut destroyed but injured iu tho rear. Exchange timet, bulb sides, from llruad street, crossing William to .Merchant street tiie Garden street church was embraced in this section. .VtrcAuHinirfcf (formerly Hanover) both sides, from Wall lo Hanover square. William ilrfft, both sides, from Wall street to Hanover square. Pearl street, both sides, from Wall street to Cocn'ics slip, including the whole sweep of Hanover square. Soc street, from Hanover squire to tho lane leadim to the head of Coenties slip. Exchange street, and part of leaver street, from Fenrl nearly to Broad. Water sli cil, both sides from Coffeo-liouso slip to Coenties slip. Front tired, both sides, from Coflcc-hous slip to Coenties slip. South street, from tho samo to tho sann. South side of Cojff'ec-house slip, from Pearl street to the East river. Doth Bides of Old slip, (including the Franklin market) from l'earl street to East rivir. North side of Coenties slip, from Pearl street to the river. Jone's lane, Goavcrncur't lane, Cuylcr's alley and pnrt of Mill Street. Seventeen blocks of buildings, of tho largest and most costly description, oro tut illy destroyed; the large block between Wall street aud Ex-lpn-v place, bounded on the west oy iJruad street, that between Exchange placo and Heaver street, limiting on liroad street, and that butween Beaver and Mill streets, also fronting on Broad, aro greatly injured, and may almost be said to be destroyed except tho single rango of stores fronting on Broad street. The number of buildings it is impossible to ascertain, but it is estimated between 700 and 1000. The amount of property destroyed is incalculable.Those acquainted with our city will at once perceive that nearly the entire seat of its greatest commercial transactions has been destroyed. It iB not probablo that the destruction of any given section, of any other city in tho world, of equal extent would have involved a groatere destruction of capital or ruined the fortunes of a greater number of men. Tho destruction of goods, of every description tbat can bo enumerated, has been immense; and what yet farther magnifies the calamity is the fact, that the portion of tho city thus destroyed, is one which has been almost entirely rebuilt within tho last five or bix years, and was covered on every hand with the most noblo and substantial ranges of mercantile edifices perhaps in the world. Before tho gunpowder was used in blowing up houses, there were many loud reports, from occasional explosions of powder, and casks of spirits. During tho whole night tho scene was one of awful terror, and indcscribablo granduer. Tho drought of the season had contributed to tho combustibility of tho matter, and the rapidity with which house after house, and range after rango, were wranned in flames, was truly astonishing. Tho wind being high, largo flakes of firo were borne whirling aloft through the dark vault of heaven with fearful splendor. From the direction of tho wind to which, under Providence, the Balvation of perhaps the wholo city is owing tho city of Brooklyn was considered in danger; ana mo nines of fire were borne along in quantities ucyonu l iat-busli.Tho buildings on Exchango placo having become involved in the conflagration, tho names commu sicatcd to the Mcrchai ts Exchange itself, tho ex emption of which had been so strongly confided i- rVtf A lartre amount of goods was deposited therefor safety. Bcforo these could bo removed, .and thu numerous tenants of tint edifice could ro-movo their private property, the firo rommunicit- cd to tho roor, and this sunn tatting in. c.irnou it the wall at tho east end of tho buili'ing, beneath ...u:.k .....! nr.nn nrnniid to hive been buried alivo. The splendid dome of the- exchange, after sorting columns of flame to an immense bight for pearly half an hour, until it was reduced to a body of firo, fell in with a tromendous crash, burying the elegant status of Hamilton in tho ruins. At Ilia time tha firo on Pearl street reached Hanover aquare.tho large epaca of ground was filled with piece gooas promiscuous puvu er, and much ortVs rrrvirtv was of the most val uable kind. So unexpectedly and rapidly did the flames extend on both sides of the square, that an unsuccessful attempt was made to remove it, fur much or it was destroyed in tho street, and tne residue, though deposited at a still greater dis tance in stores and otherwise, was shortly after ward, consumed. Dr. Matthews s church had been mado a depository fur goods in tho early part ol tne tire, which were ot course entirely consum ed with thcbuildins. leaving nothing but the walls. With the Exchange, the public has sustained a loss in the lino arts which is greatly to be regretted, We refer to the statute of Hamilton, erected by the munificence of our merchants daring the pre sent year, in the centre ol the rotunda ol that build ing. That, which was designed to remain forages, is in eight months precipitated from its pedestal, and is mixed with tho ruins ot the ill luted struc turo it was erected to adorn. Tho mero amount of property wasted and de stroyed, not by the names, but in the contusion, and hurry, and desperation of the timo, is probably equal to tho entire loss at ordinary fires. It is lamentable to see tho piles of costly furniture rich mahogany tables with marble tops, sideboards, sofas, Ace. Ace, broken and heaped up like worthless rubbish; rich merchandizes silks, satins, broadcloths, fine muslins, and every species offuncy dry goods, trampled under foot; packages half burnt boxes of cutlery and hardware burst open, and their contents scattered in the mud bottles of wine broken and in short, thousands upon thousands and tens of thousands of dollars laying wasted around, in the form of ruined merchandizes. Cojmen and porters wero heaping goods upon carts, barrows, in coaches and omnibusscs; the Battery and Bowling Green aro thickly 6tudded with piles of goods, some in boxes, others just as they wero snatched from tho shelves; marines with fixed bayonets patrolling among them for protec tion against marauders; and ail eyes fixed upon the volumes of dense black smoke, whirling away before the wind flames darting and roaring trom the roofs nnd windows of wholo streets walls tumbling to the ground, and tho firemen worn out with their exertions and alinos, discouraged from further efforts, vainly striving to make head against the flames, which seemed lo mock all human skill and power. Amidst tins drcadlul destruction, wo nro happy to announce that the shipping have not sustained any material injury. A vast many of thorn were lying at tlio docks between Hurray's wharf and t.'oentic's slip, and at ono time wa had our fears that the wholo would have been destroyed. The water was very low, and tliey could not, for some time, get away. The brig Powhittin was on fire, hut it was soon extinguished, and all, except one iir. brig in Coentie s slip, finally got into the stream, where they are now at anchor. In all coses ot great public or individual calami ties, especially those occasioning loss of property, the first impressions, and first reports are of course greatly exaggerated. And before concluding this hasty and very imperfect account, wo tako leave to caution the public abroad against giving credence to first report. Tho calamity is indeed a terrible one, and the losses will be immense. But still we aro warranted in the belief that tho burden will principally fall in such a manner that it will be borne without shaking tho creuit of the city, or checking its prosperity for any considerable length of time. Wo take it for granted nay, it is admitted on all hands that tho fire insuranco companies aro all ruined. Some will not bo able to pay fifty cents on tho dollar of their policies, and others, perhaps, not more than twenty five while others may be rather more fortunate. Hut yet, tho condition of things is not by far bo bad as many who aro on tho spot imagine, and not by any means as deplorab'.o as will bo represented abroad. A number of able and cool calculators, in consultation this morning, havo estimated the loss at ffeen millions of dollars. Now tho firo insuranco capital in this city to say nothing of insurances effected elsewhere is about ten millions. The calculation is, that about six hundred stores have been consumed the insurance of which does not average more thin about five thousand dollars upon each making tho sum of three millious. Tho loss, thereupon, in real estate, is not by far as great as will at first be supposed, inasmuch as the lots themselves constitute tho chief value b.iing often worth three or four times moro than buildings on them. Whatever amount, therefore, the insurance en1" uni 's mnv be abb to piy, the hold- of real ctt-ito will bo ah!-! to sustain and boir up under the 1-ws. Under this view of tho rise, it will bcsncn.thatthfre will rtmiin srern millions of insuranco capital to bo divided into a pr.i nti dividend towirds covering the losses on personal property. Many merchants, likewise, h ue doubtless insured their stock of goods in other cities: Ho til it on the whole, it need not be supposed tint the credit of New York will he disturbed. The losses most severely to bo felt and deplored, will he those of widows and orphans, whoso property has been invested in stocks. Wo had written thus far, when a well informed gentleman called with the following calculations and estimates. It corresponds very nearly with our own. The estimation of tho buildings burned is 50. If wo estimate theso at $0000 each, it will give in round numbers thrco millions and a half of dollars. And if wo csliinato tho valuo of merchandise in each build ing at twenty thousand dollars destroyed. t will givo about eleven millions; making in all about fourteen millions and a half. And though it may appear that tho estimate of the valuo of the merchandise ot each store is low, yet it is ooiievco that the property saved will reduce the amount to this average. Two.thirdsof this property it is believed was insured say ten millions. And if tho nsurance companies each had an average share. their capital, which amounts to eleven millions and seven hundred and fifty thousand dolrars, would pay tho wholo loss. But we apprehend tint it will bo found that many of our offices havo but small amounts covered by them, while otherof our ofliees havo taken an amount furoxecoding thoircnpitals. Tt is also probable that the insuranco offices of Boston and Philadelphia will como in to bear a small proportion of tho loss. The above, although mero matter ot opinion, will help our citizens trom tho data given to correct this estimate, or form opinions for themselves. In one respect tho disaster Ins befallen us at a most fortunato period. It is tho season of the ynar when tho stocks of goods nro reduced to the minium quantity; anil tho autumnal sales hive this year been so great, that as a general rule very diminished stocks wore on hand. A suggestion of (Treat importinro is mido by the city authorities. It is that everv orrtinint of n house or store, or building of any description, ta'te soma measures to ki?i wi'ch all nig'it. Tha h-si nnd engines nw useless from tho icn with which tlio v nrn choked tin: tho firemen arnexhiusted nnd worn out; and should a firo n-rvn break nut, there will bo nothing to resist its progress. Every one must theroforo keep watch for tho safety of his own premises. A civic patrol is organized, hut it isall-important that ind;vidual vigilance bo unremitting. This is not a timo to suggest modes of assistance or relief to the hundreds who are ruined by this terrible calamity, but some-hing must be done. The government will no donbt soe tho propriety and necessity of taking instant measures to relieve the merchants who havo custom house: bonds arriving ot maturity; but what can ho duno for tho fire insurance companies, all of which hive doubtless lost all their capital, is moro than we can con jecture. Tho consequences must bo dreadful. J. ho prosperity ot this city Ins never been sub jected to a shock so terrible. During tho night all descriptions ot carriages were in the immediate vicinity of the firo, cither waiting to removo books, driving away with mer chandise, or in attendance upon those who were watching the progress of tho flames. l'earl street, from Hanover square to uroad st. was a depository for piece goods; and piles, valued perhaps at half a milliok, were burnt. Old slip was also'filled with every species of valuablo property, which was destroyed. A large number ot tho militia are ordered out to protect property through tho night wo have not been able to ascertain how many, but understand that the orders embrace several regiments. frj" I ho Tost Olhoo, in which every thing was saved, has been removed to the Custom Ho'uso. No mails have been delivered as yet to-day, but we aro to have a delivery this afternoon. POSTSCRIPT. One O'Clock, P. .'. The firo has boon mas tered, and wo rejoice to learn, did not cross Coenties Slip, nor advance any farther south upon l'earl street. nrrWe aro gratified that we are enabled to state that the Banks, with one accord, are act ing in this emergency upon a scale of the most extended liberality. To day, tho officers bavo taken the responsibility," in all necessary cases, of " doing as they would be duno by." A meeting ol liank directors is to bo held tomorrow fur farther consultation. From the Mercantile Advertiser. Destructive Conflagration ! Millions of Property Destroyed I ! ! A little before 9 o'clock, last evening, a fire broko out in tho store of Comslock Ac Andrews, in-Merchant street, which threatened extensive destruc tion. 1 he street is n mow, and built on both sides with high stores, principle occupied by dry goods jobbers and importers. The wind blowing a gale at ft. W., the thermometer at or below zero, tlio hydrants mostly frozen, and tlio engines, almost unlit lor service in consequence uf the freezing of th J hose from their cxposuM tho nracdin ' night. great fears of extensive d iniagj wero exurossjd it the commencement of tho lirj and tli .'s J tears have been more tlun realizjd. Never h is such a conflagration been witnessed in this city. Tho amount of property destroyed must bo MANY MILLION OF JjJLLAiM. In the course of twenty minutes from tha com mencement of tho fire, not only the building in which it originated, but tho wholo on both s.iles of tlio street to Pearl street wero in a blaze. Never was a more rapid extension of tlio ft uues. The stores on Pearl street, and on each sido of Mer chant street, were soon enveloped in the devouring clement. Soon tho fl lines extended across to thu south side of Pearl street, and at this lime, eleven o'clock, have destroyed nearly tho wholo block, on that sido of the street, from and including the store of Arthur Tappan, As Co., to Wall street. iiicncotney nave already axtendeu to Water street, increasing in strength and violence, and now threaten tho destruction of all the property on Water, Front, and South street, from Pearl street to tho river, and trom the wc6t side ol Wall street nearly to Old slip. Some vessels in Coffee House slip are already on fci ..iut, to iun-....i( cold aud tho scene of destruction is most sublime and awful! It is just reported that tho stores in Exchange place, in reir of tho Exchange have taken firo. There is now a loud explosion ol pow- !ur or tlio bursting uf casks of spirituous liquors in a store in Water or Front street. Tho engines can do nothing to stop tlio progress of tin fla.ncs. Half vast 11. Tho flnncs a.u now raging in every direction from the placo whero they "ruinated. All the buildings in Fringe street, below the Exchange, ar; ucstroved throe or four of tho iluings in Ex'.'liingo ul ice, are on tiro, and tho wholo block to William street, as well as tho Ex- c'.nng., is in dang jr. Tho wind has sotnswhat sub uded. It is in;iossi'jle to calculito thiamout of dam- lie alrevly sust linjl suc'i "o:Js as coul I hn Ins- tily s.ivcd, tir) strewe 1 iu tin strjet.'. Wo shall annex a list ofsu.::i oi't'n oc:ii,iiil.- of tlu stores and stid'erers, as wj cm goither in tin confusion that prevails. .Many ionu mse stouks of giodsare consumed. It is UJIieved that inor) liian one hundred stores and warehouses, including many of tho most valuable in the city are alreadydestroyed. Twelve o'clock: Tho rear of tho Exchange is now on lire, which is extending into the Post Of-flco. A strong force of firemen is placed there, and hopes arc entertained that this building will be saved. The firo is still extending to South street some of tho vessels between Coll'eo Houso and Old slips have taken fire. One o'clock 1 ho Exchango still on firo in tne rear. 1 ho letters havo boon removed tloin the Post Office, There is now no knowing where tho flames will bo stopped tho hydrants aro exhausted tho hoso of many of tho engines aro frozen, nnd useless, and tho flames extending. Never was a moro awlul sight than is now presented. The firo is yet extending west in Pearl street and will probably extend to Old slip, and sweep off all tho valuablo buildings on tho three squares bounded by Pearl, South and Wall streets, and Old slip. Tho buildings' on tho west sido of Wall street, between tho Exchango and Pearl street, oro yet standing, somo of thorn much damaged in tho rears. JNcurly tho wholo block, bounded ny .Merchant street, Exchange placo, William street, and Pearl street, an inimunso pilo of new and valuable warehouses, is now on fire and many of them reduced to ashes. Tho sccno grows worso and worse tho Exchange, it is said, cannot be saved. If this is destroyed, all Wall street below Will iam streot must share tha saina fato, and exposo to destructions tho buildings cast to an incalculable extent. Tho stores of Howland and Aspinwall, Moses Taylor, Smith and I own, Osborn and loiing. and tlio whole on South streot. Fruit stre -t, Water sinet, and Pearl streot, batwjon Colfn House and Old slips aro rapidly consuming, Foirs aro now entertained lint t!u fire will extend on l'earl strjet below Old slip. Tho (Jazette ollieo nnd many of tho merchants ara clearing out. Tho Exchaiigt.it is now said, cannot bj saved, and wo nro preparing to move our publishing olfice from tho opposite sido of thu street. Tliree o'clock: Tho Exchango is in ruins it is reported tint sJveral persons h ivj bean killed, or severely woundod by tin filling of ono of tha walls. Tho firo Ins now extended north fro n tho Exchigo to Willi vn street, on Inth sides, and tliroitons to continin through to Broid stroet. The Girdcn Btrcet Church i reported to bo on fire. Tlio cast sido of Wall street is yet safe. The scene of desolation from Poarl etroct to tho East river is awful. A messenger has just been despatched to the Navy Yard, for a supply of paw der to blow up buildings in order to stop the pro gross of the flames. Tho wind continual high and there is yet no favorablo prospect of any cessation of the flames they havo now reached the rear of Broad street. Pearl street, from Wall street to Old slip on both sides, all destroyed. Water street, from Wall street to Old slip, all destroyed. Front stroet, from Wall 6troet to Old Blip, all destroyed. South street, from Wall street to Old slip, all destroyed. Merchant street, all destroyed. Exchange place to William street, all destroyed. William street, from Wall street nearly to Old slip destroyed. Four o'clock. There is hope that tho fire in Wall street will bo stopped by the American Insurance Company, and that tbat building, and those below, to Pearl street, will be saved. The buildings above the American Insuranco office on the west sido of Wall street to Will, iain street, including the Exchange, are all da stroyed and two or thrco above William streot. Tbe fire is raging toward Broad street, in tha rear of Wall streot, and may extend to tba buildings on the latter. The east side of Wall street is yet safe. The flames are yet extending down William street; the buildings on that street and fronting Hanover square including the Gazette office are burnt down. This is a terrible calamity to New-York. It is believed that moro than two hundred Valuable stores and warehouses are destroyed, with the principal part of their contents. No estimate of the amount of damages can be made some individual stock of goods are estimated as high as two, three and four hundred thousand dollars. The loss cannot fall much short of TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS and many are of opinion that it will exceed T1IIHTY .MILLIONS ! 1 Tho list of sufferers annexed is very incomplete, and does not include ono third of the number. Wo havo lust heard the Mayor say, that an at tempt would no made to arrest the tltmes before reaching Broad street by the blowing up one or more Mr. Lord's stores with powder. Nearly tho whole of Lord's elegant row of storei in Exchange place, and the church opposite, aro in ruins and tho flames extending rapidly toward Broad street. Tho Daily Advortisar, and tho American, news paper ofliees, aro dostrovod witil ulL-iks -iittchiZS presses of the establishments. FIVE O'CLOCK. We go to press while the fira u still raging. It is said to have extended below Old slip on Pearl street and there is no calculation where, its ravages will bo bounded. Ila'f past Jioc.
