The burnt district already exhibits signs of activ- ity,and is covered with tents, and gangs of laborers, clearing away preparacory to the immediate erection of stores, eto. Asan instance of the indefatigable spirit of our cltizens under calamity, we will cite that of William McNulty, who has erected an iron building on J street, im the heart of the burnt dis- trict, which will be opened this morning. The Stata Hospi! atients have all boon re- moved to a store on the corner of N street and the leree. The bodies of those found in the ruins were removed there yesterday afternoon.
