Fire.—Last night, about half-past ten o’clock, a fire was discovered in the back part of N. Crickard & Co.’s confectionery store, No. 17 Clark street. No general alarm was sounded, but the steamer “A. D. Titsworth” was despatched to the scene, and easily succeeded in extinguishing the flames. The loss will not amount to more than a trifling sum.
