The LOTTY SLEIGH was a barque of 220 tons, and was insured. She shipped a full complement of seamen and the captain had all his effects and a considerable sum of money on board. Two of the crew after being landed went to the Sailor's Home, one of them before the fire began was engaged in putting the powder on board from the magazine boat, and although he knows little of the origin of the fire, he speaks of the terrific rapidity with which it spread over the vessel. Most of the clothing of the crew is lost and many of the poor fellows are left in pecuniary distress. Besides the powder the vessel had a large valuable cargo for the West Coast trade, the loss to the owners or underwriters will be large.
