On Monday evening, the 11th of May, a sorrowful affair happened in the theatre in Amsterdam, in Holland; by some accident a small rope took fire by a candle, which communicated to the boxes, and in a few minutes the whole house was in flames. The smoke and confusion was so great, that though many escaped out of the house, near three hundred persons perished in the flames.--Among them are some of the first families in Holland. . . |
