GULGONG. Saturday, 7.14 p.m.
A store, owned by Mr. Asher, was totally destroyed by fire this evening. The loss amounts to £2500. Clifford's Sydney Brewery had to be razed to save Ryan's public-house. There was no wind at the time of the fire. Great exertions were used to stop the progress of the fire, and they were successful.
