t 4 o'clock, a fire broke out in the large brick building fronting on Cary street, between 1st and Adams, which was used as a storage and drying house of the C. S. Bakery. The locality in which the fire occurred is better known to our citizens as Dill's bakery, and the large number of brick buildings used in the manufacture of crackers, bread, &c., for the Government, in whose possession it has been for the past two years, rendered it one of the most extensive establishments of the kind in the risk of his own life, manfully, stood upon the roof, which was on fire all round him, and succeeded in cutting the shingles away, and prevented the fleunes from spreading till the steam engine could get to work. The loss by this fire will probably not fall short of seventy five or one hundred thousand dollars. Mr. Dill, we learn, had a partial insurance on the building. It was evidently the result of an accident, and occurred in the room used for drying the bread preparatory for packing.
