Norwicn, Nov. 22.—The steamer City of New London, of the Norwich freight line, took fire this morning about half ‘4 o'clock in the ‘Thames river, and is still burning. There is little reason to hope that either her hall or cargo will besaved. Several persons known to have been on board nave not yet reported themselves, and there are some reason to fewr they have perlshed. The fire caaght in he kitehen at6:30 this morning. Some of the crew lost thier lives, but itis not yet known how many. ‘The flames were first discovered issning from one of the ventilators. Capt. Brown was on deck, and ordered the boat anchored. Eiforts were immediately made to extinguish the flames, and after a short time were apparently success- ful. A rigid examination discovered no traces ot fire. Ancuor was hoisted, and the boat pro- ceeded up the river. When about three miles below this abreast the mouth of Poquetan- nock, con was discovered in some cotton, which wason deck. The donkey pum® were started, aud the eaptain and engineer, aided by the crew, in less than one minute had three streams On the fire. Despite all exertions the fire spread with great rapidity, and soon envel- oped all the forward part of the boat. The cap. taim seeing that all efforts to extinguish the tire were useless, ordered the boat beached; bat the engineer could not start the engine. ‘The donkey pumps were, however, still kept at work until the engineer notified the captain that he feared an explosion of the boilers, in which event all would be lest. The spread of the flames had in the meantime cut off all comma. nication with the boats, and rendered the lite- preservers inaccessible.’ The passengers and crew then threw themselyes into the water, clinging to such portions of the cargo and boat as had fallen overboard. Those who were able to swim had not much difficulty in reaching shore. were picked up by boats from Hloatin es of the cargo in an ex- hausted condition and taken to fatm houses in the vi where they were cared for and resuscitated. Some half dozen -of the crew and passengers are still missing, and it is feared are lost, among whom is C. B. Rogers, aweil known manufacturer of this city.

Mrs. ‘Brooker occupied a stage box. Mrs. Wood- hull in the course of her remarks said that the institution of marriage was all a mistake, and the sentiment provoked first applause and’ then hisses and intense excitement, in the midst of which Mrs. Brooker, from the stage-box, asked her sister, so that everybody could hear, “if she would like to have come into the world ‘without knowing who was her father?” Shouts of approbation greeted thissally, when Mrs. Woodhull said, loudly, “There are’ thou- sands of noble men and women in the world to- who never knew who their father was.” She proceeded vehemently with her lecture, giving no chance to the lady in the. private box to interrupt again. The fatter still kept her place, although alone in the Vox, for her friends rapidly deserted her, and several times she essayed to speak. Mrs. Woodhull angrily shouted out her sentences until she was fairl compelled to pause by the boisterous demand ol the audience for a speech from her opponent. A policeman was summoned, and he attempted, in vain, to induce Mrs. Brooker to leave the box. Finally Theodore Tilton advanced and at- tempted to quell the excitement, which had be- come u| .
