IRELAND. Dgeuv. A Dublin solicitor, Mr. Hervey Oldham, has made aloe d'sc-ivery that the project of removing the juris- In of the Irish law courts to Westminster has already to some extent been put into actual operation. " The edge of the wedge," he tells es, " is already and the bestrew relating to cue entire branch of the law is already removed from the cognizance of its courts to the Exchequer at Westminster." This very I remarkable fact, which had hitherto escaped the attention of Irish lawyers and politicians, he hes round to have occurred is the case of the recent stamp act, recording to which every deed mast be sent to the Baud of Inlaid Revenue in London, to have the special stamp affixed, which, by that se, is to be de cis.ve of the sufficiency of stamp duty on such deed. This provision of the act is looked upon as of the ve7 highest importance, and the special stamp will, it is supposed, be requited in a greet proportion of cane; but if any legal question should arise on the ileeillet or duty, alts, the appeal is the case lice to the Cam of Exchequer at Westminster. It is supposed that the Irish lawyers who may bare seen the bill in ywogress satisfied themselves with the marginal note u this clause, where the w.rd "Weettninster" does rot occur, and this that it wee allowed to pass into law, and be made applicable to Ireland without any enjection. " What," exclaims the Freeman, " were cur representatives about? What were our lawyers about? What was the committee of the Lsw So ciety about ? What were our judgre, whose preroga tive has ben invaded, doing or thinkiug of, that so monstrous an invasion of our rights and laws should bays bees satterod to pees unnoticed through the legislature" Is tie commercial article of the Freeman's Journal the following very discouraging account is given of the revenue of the port of Dublin : We an egoiedisily soseersed it Wag °Wield to r‘port this the revenue of this port for the par wait/ this day shows vs y heavy falling at bon fat pear, whisk was also mask below the previous yaw The reveres left Vie year sidle.

A most destructive lire took place yesterday morn lag in the extensive coach factory of Messrs. Hutton, of this city. The flames were observed at en early Lour in the morning, and it is siappeed that the fire Lad been smouldering fromsome time in the preceding tS,tu day ) night, when a spark from the forges may have iited some timber ; but in a very short time alter t he fire was discovered the flames spread with amazing velocity, and a groat portion of the ex tensive premises fell a prey to the codiagration. Eve'y possibll effort was made to pave the valuable property, and the wellknown popularity of the re spected proprietors induced the people to make the very u:alust exertions on the OCC&&1011; but it is ne vertheless feared that losses to the amount of some . .:0.000/. must have been incurred.

COMM. 07 PERJURY BY ♦ POLICEMAN. James Deafen, a polite-constable of the E division, our. reedited to take his trial upon an indictment charging him with wilful and oorrept perjury.—Mr. O'Brien conducted the prosecutios. Mr. Robinson appeared for the defendant. This cue occupied the e , nrt a groat may hours, ard was not brought to a coaclaaion until near seven o'clock ; but the facts lay in a very mall compass. The indictment against the defendant, it appeared, was preferred by a Mr. John Day, who carries on the business of carpenter and sadettaker, In Hastinstfratreet, St. Pancras, and the perjury imputed to the defendant was alleged te' have beta com mittal by him upon the hearing of a charge of mauls pre ferred by the constable against the prosecutor at the Oterkenwell Poiice Court on the 26th Orober last. It appeared that on the day in question the defendant was on duty in Hastinim street, near me residence of the prosecutor, when he bed occasion to order • man who was selling grounded and chickweed to go away, and it seemed that when he had dose so, the prowcutor called to the man cad purchased some griundeel of him, and this led to en &item between him and the defendant, and at length blows were exchanged, and some other constables were calledon, and eventually Day and another person named Beans were token into custody noon *charge of usaulting the defendant, and toddies him in the execution of his duty, and the pro stutter and Seine were both fined by the magistrate. It WAS alleged that upon this occasion the defendant had falsely swore that the prosecutor had crossed the street to him and struck him, and that he end Sean. then dragged him into the proncutor's shop and there again assaulted him. The prosecutor swore distinctly that both thews allegations Were false, and his evidence win confirmed to some extent by other idiotism ; but it was at the some time admitted that there had been a waft!, and that tie defendant had received a blow while it was going on. On the put of the defendant saveral'wltaseess were examined, who gave • totally diffuse; version of the trans action, and some of them confirmed the statement he had originally made ma to the prosecutor having crowd the road end stunk him in the he bad represented, without his having given him any provocation. The evidence on both aides was of the most contradictory character. The Recorder having summed up, the fury, after deli berating for nearly half an hour, returned a verdict of Not Gaga y.

On the 24th of September lest the prisoner called upon • gentleman named ()urge Samuel Ford, solicitor. of Hen rietta.strut, Covent-garden, and introducing himself r Captain Poulton, produced a letter, and stated that he witted to negotiate the vie of some reversionary property. He then went on to say that the property, which amounted to about 20,0001., would revert to him at the death of his mother, who wee in a very declining sate, and 87 years of age, and that the opinion of the medical men was that she could not Ilse long.

BILL BWIXDIASO.—In 000megoesee Of the receipt of mead kitten from various parts of the wiantry on the sub ject of tbe mock mercantile 'getup of a gang of L mition swindlers, the Lord Kayo, mused inquiries to be seeds by the polies Nadas is the ration' locahUes to which the corn spondesse referred. The practice of the parties alluded to is to send to trades ems *Wars confidentially Informing then of certain fati• lidos of precerbig cosh for bills, or saloons upon good., and epos reselpt of the menrities or the property to tors the whole to their own advantage, leaving their credulous dopes to iyet ova the aggravated emberraeaments caused by the active prosecution of the system with the help of Providence alone. Th e f o llowing are paragraphs from one of the circulars : "We shall have no objection to make an ad of 20 gee ear. ea amount of invoice, if at any time you should le ken goods on hand and find sales dull, and we will •1111 ear best exertions to turn them into money for you to nieentage, towards paying your bills as they become due, ite remit you the ash as they are sold." " With respect to goods and parcels, plans to advise by letter first ; and whets goods are sent to turn into cash to pay bills with, they must be (awarded in sufficient time." "Oar boon will afford every facility, and be disposed to accommodate in every pra ct ical way the respectable trader, and we trust that our exertions to give satisfaction will be attended as hitherto with material benefit to all parties who may bosom, us with their confidence. Any further in formation requested will be immediately turnished, and all commando obtain prompt and confidential attention.—We are, sir, yours respectfully, B. Mo Putnam! AND CO., General Factors, 10, Union-row, Kingsland." One of his lordship's correspondents said in his letter, " I was inclined to put earself in communication with the writers, B. M'Pherson„ self-styled ' general factors,' 10, Union row, Kingsland, solely to find out the manner of their trensacuog basinem, and to give your lordship, who, through the press, can inform those who are in want (thank Gad 1 am not) of their assistance, that nothing can result from an experiment bat an exposure of the want of money, accom panied by the utter want of principle. I received an answer to my fictitious ease, and, in reply, was informed that I could be stoommodated with any amount, from 2001. to 6001. The parties at the same time stated that I should be recommended by thus to • respectable broker. I wrote • second letter, when back game a term of a bill, a eopy of which 1 inclose ; also the broker's address. need not add more on the subject. Probably the assumed names are well known to Mr. Goodman, who will, doubt less, put in execution any plan your lordship may think necessary to suggest, to check this villany. Should Ibe instrumental in patting an end t o it, the purpose for which I have taken the trouble will be fully answered. I write by this post to the bill broker, to know from that worthy his terms, and will in due course give your lordship the result." The following is • copy of the form of the bill referred to in the letter: " £3OO. " Landon. " Twelve mouths after date, pay to my order in London three bandied pounds, value received. Cs. EDWARDS. " To Mr. W. W., Shipping Merchant, Liverpool." Across the copy of the bill were the words, " Accepted at Messrs. Rodgers, Aldis, and Co., bankers, London ;" and on the bark were " Pay to Mr. D. 8., or order, Chas. Edwards." Serjant Daboil, of the X division of the metropolitan polies force, said—l went, at the request of your lordship, to the address, No. 10, Uaion-row, Kiegsland. The row consists of a few very small houses, and I inquired at all the houses there, bat could heer:nothing at all of M'Pherson and Co. Even the postman, for whoa I waited, could give me no information about them. However, upon looking over some papers which I seized some time ago from • gang of swindlers, I found the circular identical with that issued by M'Pherson and Co., with the exception of the name of the firm, which is, I understand, changed as occasion may require to Wigram and Co., Muter man and Co., or Bouquet end Co. I am convinced that M'Paerson is no other than Winans, whose real name is Sporran, and whom I have known for years as a bill stealer. The gang is an extensive one, and has been very successful, particularly in Ireland, where Wiliam has a son, who is of great use to the villanous system. Some time ago 4001. worth of printings were procured by Boaanqu.t from a gentleman in Kilkenny, through Wigan's eon. The party who sustained the loss called upon me to represent the circumstance, and I took him to Wigton, who then lived in Georgestreet, Kingsland, and asked him whether that was the man with whom the dealing had been bad. The dupe, however, could not swear to the identity of Wigram, who merely said, on hearing the charge, " Well, I yea were a fool to put with your property." The Lord Mayor—My object in publicly bringing forward Ste subject of imposing upoa men in pecuniary difficulties by means of these circulars is to protect the community as far as I am able as chief magistrate of London against • very extensive mode of plunder. I have received aumerous cons. manications from individuals who have sustained irreperable mischief by the plan of operations thus adopted, sod amongst the dupes are several clergymen as well as men en gaged in industrious trades, who, after having entrusted i heir Ws to those fellows who had stolen the names of eminent bankers and merchants, heard of the fate of their secu rities until applied to for payment. I can under the present circumstances do nothing bat 'dries thou who may receive communications of this kind to avoid holding any corn. spondence with the writers, and to express myi hops that this exposure may be the means of WASS many a man and many a poor family from distress. I think it is but due to the officer who has given me the intelligence to state that the cilia as of London are much indebted to him for the exertions be has made to detect the gang, and that the con tinuance of such activity may enable the magistracy one day to mulish the delinquents. Ax INFANT Taw.—A little boy, named Joseph Neville, was charged will having picked a gentleman's pocket of a handkerchief. The prisoner was not expert in the office, and was caught in the act by the prosecutor, who seised and ' held hire. The Lord Mayor—How long have you been picking pockets ? Prisoner—l have been at it just three months, sir. The Lord Msyor—And how many pockets have you picked during that time t Prisoner (shaking hie head) really don't know. The Lord Mayor—Do you mean that you don't know be cause they were so many t Prianer-1 do your lordship. The Lord Mayor then sentenced the wretched child to be imprisoned for one month, and gave some particular direc tions respecting it to the principal gaoler. BENETOLINCE.—The Lord Mayor requested that the press would acknowledge the receipt of 201. from T. and 8., and 101. from the Mercers' Company, for the poor boa.

If the former, kis evidence could not be taken against Hut; bat if the latter, he (Mr. Lewis) would ask the alderman to remove Newland from the dock and place him in the witness box, in order that he (Mr. Lewis) might croes-ezamine him upon his former statement. Alderman Lawrence said he looked upon Newland both es a prisoner and a witness, and would therefore decline to remove him. Mr. Wellington Williams was then willed, and said- I have examined my stock since my last appearance la this court, and have ascertained that the articles produced on the arm examination form part of the property missing. Those articles taken from the ladies and gentlemen's department, are valued about 91 or 101. I Cannot yet sell how much has been taken from the children's stock, but I believe it rafted' 201. I shall be able to ascot. tam in the course of a day or two the exact amount. James Swain, pawnbroker, stated, the first article, a child's frock, was pawned on the 17th of December, for Is 61. The next, a frock and cape mu pawned on the 18th, for 31. Oa the 26th, the cloak and 'hood were pledged. New. 'lead brought them all in ; when he brought the cloak and I hood he asked 10s. and 1 offered him 56., lee went outside, and I heard him s peaking to some person. Ina few minute, the talking comeed, and he came lain the shop and agreed to take the 6s. Mr. Lewis objected to this evidence. Ald. Lawrentme-I don't think, Mr. Lew s, that you have any right to complain. I have not as yet mentioned the name of your silent. Mr. Lewis-I am aware of that, Sir; but I an see in whet way you intend to being this evidence to bear upon the thane against Hatt, sad I object to it accordingly. Aid. Lawrence-I am potting then questions for my own satisfaction, and I shall therefore pursue the course I have b Vitn . ess continued-The next pledging consisted of four children's coats, en the 28th Dec., for 6.. They were all in the name of "Liston," and pledged generally in the evening. Crow examined by Mr. Lewis-It is not an uncommon thing for people pledging at oar shop to come after clerk, so as to avoid observation ; and also to go out on having less offered them on their goods, and to return and ultimately take the reduced amount. Babassa Haddole -I am must to Mrs. Parsons is Lillipielsao. Mr. Williams's warehouse adj,ins our house. I hug dies seen Newland carrying boxes to and from Mr. Willlame's. Oa Thursday, Dee. 19, he brought a pasteboard kaa as oar shop, and asked me to take care of it for him for Nut five minutes. This was about 6 o'clock in the evening. 1 Ti. box produed is the one prisoner left with me. He did not come for It until about 11 o'clock the next morning, and in the interim I o pin ed the box, and saw it contained this child's cloak sad hood.

He was Is the habit of !mill i( g hues, similar to the one produced, containing millinery, from Mr. Williams's. I saw the cloak and hood on the Tuesday previous to Newland coming there, and missed it two days after. Croacexamiaed-The box was in that part of the ware. Douse meat easily acesesible to 'treason. We have about 30 boxes of a similar description generally on the coaster, bat If primmer took the one predated from there, he must have carried it through the workshop, and be sesta not have dons so without being perceived by the young men at 11r.

Alderman Lawrence, with the advice o: the chief clerk, said that the ordinary nouns must be wine through and the new charges takes, as a eromiessmination upon matter that bed not come before the court was unusual and scald net consequently be allowed. Some miser charges were then advanced by Mr. Williams, after which . . Mr. Lewis woo about to tall witnesses as to Hart's cha racter, bat upon learning that the alderman bad determined to commit his client for trial, said be would abandon his purpose. In the meantime be would uk the alderman to swept bail for the appearance of Hart to take his trial at the Old Bailey. Alderman L1112011:111 said he could not think of accepting bail in such a case as the one now before him. .

ASEACLTING THE PULICE.—John Jeffreys, apparently a stableman, was charged with assaulting s police.sonstable The officer stated fist late on Saturday night he ob. served the prisoner in company with two notorious thieves, and followed them irate Drury lone, where the prisoner ' separated from his companions and retired to a house in Charles-street. Witness, who was euziona to Sind out where he lived, walked there behind him, ard was looking up at the house, when the prisoner opened the second ft use window and en.ptied a chamber utensil over him. Witness, assisted by another constable, tten entered the house, and went up stairs to the second floor, where they found the prisoner at the door flourishing a poker, and threatening that he would smash them if they cease near him. They succeeded in getting the poker from him, and ultimately took him to the station. On the way there the prisoner, who had been previously very violets', said, "If you will take your hands off I will go quietly," which witness did, but it would seem only to give the prisoner an opportunity of striking him. Not content with that, however, the pri soner also knocked him down and kicked him dreadfully on the shin.,, Mr. Hall eked him what be had to say ? The prisoner denied having thrown the dirty water over the at/it:sr . ._ . Mr. iiiil—yiell, what do you gay to the susaalt ?

CLERK EN WELL. THE " John Butcher was charged by Mr. John Baker, gentleman, of No. 3, Warwick-lane, Gray's. inn, withal& assault and robbery. Thomeson,l74 G, and Tyler, 412 A, stated that in con. sequence of information of a rebbery and a description of the persons of the thieves, who were believed to be in the habit of visiting a place called the "Xi chin,"in Fox-court, Gray's-inn-lane, on Sunday night they (the cfficen) con cealed themselves in Holborn-buildings close by, when they saw the prisoner pull the prosecutor out of the house, and forcing him against the wall, put his own right arm round bis victim's neck end thrust his left hand into bis pocket. The officer. immediately rushed upon prisoner and forced his hand from the prosecutor's pocket. The prosecutor was intoxicated at the time, and said he had been robbed of a silk handkerchief and other property. Mr. Baker being sworn, said that he had been with a party and drunk freely of wine. As he was returning home be wee accosted by some women who inveigled him into Fox court, where they dragged him down stairs into a large kitchen, filled with men and women, &c. He was anxious to get out of the piece, when be was followed by the prisoner, who attacked him as described by the officers. Mr. Combs asked the officers what sort of • place the " kitchen" was ? Tyler rep tea that it was a house let out to notorious thieve., edger,, prostitutes, and the wont of characters, who even accommodated with beds at 2d. and 3d. per night there were fevers! beds is each room where men, SWIM boys, and girls slept indiscriminately together. There wets two large kitchens with ranges, large tires were kept during toe day and night. The thieves regaled them selves. The kitchens were lit "up with gas, and there were so I.s. than 200 persons constantly to the house. The prisoner was known as a thief. He denied the charge, but he was sentenced to two months' imprisonment with hard labour. WORSHIP-STREET • A Savaoa.—Richard Saitubury, a gasfltter, living at Homerton, was charged with having seriously iejured his son, aged 10, by throwing him down stain, and else with having practised a long continued series f neglect and cruelty towards his wife and two other children. The wife, an attenuated, care-worn looking woman, in an advanced state of pregnancy, stated that she had been mar. riel eleven years to the prisoner, and that he had been in the habit of subjecting her during nearly the whole of that period to a systematic course of ill treatment. He was in the receipt of liberal weekly wages, but as soon as they were p..id to him on a Saturday night it was hie constant custom to squander the greater part of the amount in drink. On returning home on those occasions, he invariably corn. minced an attack upon her, which resultei in her being driven out of doors to wander all night shout the streets, or seek shelter in any wretched outhouse where she could fobtain a temporary refuge. Last Sa turday evening he drove her out u usual, and after passing the night in a wa.er-closet, the daughter of her land. lord took compassion upon her, and invited her into her room, where she remained until Sunday afternoon, when she win alarmed by the cries of her children up stairs, ac , computied by angry exclamations from the prisoner, which were followed by a scuffing noise, and a heavy fall at the foot of the stain. On hastening up to ascertain the cause of the uproar, she found her son lying bruised and bleeding in the passage, and having elicited from the boy that his father had flung him down stairs because be refused to cum ply with his orders to go out and purchase some poison, which he declared to be his intention to force down his throat, the landlord of the house immediately proceeded to the station house, and procured the assistance of poinci ana:able Francis, who took the prisoner into custody. • Ti. ripmer's *mom mats fir gee lit& figlow, law co, firming his mother's evidence, stated that at the time in question his father, who had been drinking all the morning, and had more than once threatened to throw him out of the window, ultimately ordered his to proceed to a che mist's in the neighbourhood and purehue twopennyworth of Writ of lead, which he told him would serve for his dinner, and that if he refused to take it he would cram it down his throat. On expressing his unwilling:use to perform such an errand, hie father mixed hold of him, and dragging him into the leading threw him down the whole flight of stairs, at the Mot et which he was found lying by his mother. After some further evidence to the same effect, Mr. Arnold severely animadverted upon the systematic 1 brutality which the prisoner had exercised towards his nem ' tnnate family, and ordered him to be remanded until Wed nesday next, but consented to accept substantial bail for his IP - The prisoner wes unable to procure the required sureties, and was acoordiegly removed in the police van to the House of Detention. Baresvotareca.—The magistrate acknowledged the receipt of 101. from "R. P." and also - the first half of a 101. note from .• S. A.," for the outvotes of the poorbcx. SOUTHWARK. A Dart or YouNo Txtavaa.— Thonseu Carney, Edward Crspps, Janus Mussy, Thomas Williams, and William Ponlick, five ragged and filthy buys, were charged with trespassing on property belonging to the South Western Rail way Company. Sergeant Harris, 6 L, stated that at 3 o'clock on the pre- ceding moraine he examined the arches under the terminus of the South W Railway, and observed a hole capable of admitting a man's body in sae of them situated in Granby. street, Waterloo-road. On looking through this aperture he discovered the prisoners, some of whom had pipes in their mouths smoking, while °then were talking and laughing, and all seemed as If they were perfectly secure from dis covery in their hiding plaos. The moment be threw the light of his ball's-eye upon the group they all started upon their feet, but the arch being enclosed on all i.ides they had no opportunity of escape, and were secured without difficulty. They bad worked holes, and undermined the arch in 'several places. In a hole covered with a piece of board, lte found small parcels of coffee, sugar, pepper, candles, &o. There was also a quantity of coals, and straw covered a portion of the ground. The magistrate then asked the witness it he knew the prisoners ? The sergeant said that they had all been convicted of petty offences. Bent, the detective officer of the South Western Railway, said, that a number of their companions were convicted some time ago for a similar offence, and that it cost the company 701. to repair the arch which they damaged by taking up their quarters in it. Mr. A'Beckett said they were charged with trespassing on the railway company's premises, and for that offence he should commit Carney, being the worst amongst them, to six weeks' imprisonment; Crippe, Hussey, and Williams to one month each, and Pontick to 21 days. THE OLDEST litHABITANT OE HAMPSTEAD, Mr. Rowbotham, a dock and watch maker, died mostly, at the me of 90.

The advises per Africa, from Liverpool, which were re ceived yesterday, are considered favourable in a commercial view, arid our cotton market haa improved accordingly. Go , verieweat sett. r tttt and State stocks are also to better re quest, and prices have an upward tendency. We have seldom if ever witnessed ao buoyant a stock market at this seam of the year ; the " fancy" descriptions partake of the impulse, and a speculative feeling appears to be increasing in them, descriptions. For a correct list of prima we reter to our table of sales, also the quotations of prices offered and asked for the different descriptions. The demand for foreign exchange, so far, as has not been active, we quote:—London, 1101 to 1101; Paris. 6 10 to 5.124; Amsterdam, 411 to 41$ ; Ham burg, 361 a 37 ; Bremen, 80. In the mosey market we have nothing new to notice. Since our report of the 21st instant the rates continue easy, and the supply quits abundant for all the wants of trade. First class short paper is in demand at 6 to 7 per cent.; long, same character, 7 to 74 per cent. ; auction passes freely at 7 to 9 per cent., and names not as well known at 9 to 12 per mut. Loans on call, sto 7 per cent.; a few favourite signatures could be negotiated at a tell* under these rates. The old year is rapidly drawing to a close, and many firms are busying the/amino in closing up the accounts of the old yeas, which has a tendency to dimish the supply of certain kinds of paper on the market, and prevent new traneactions. The high rates for Foreign Exchange attract attention, lest gold to a cot siderabla amount to meet the old indebtedness on our last year's foreign trade, may yet have to go forward. The price of hills, when the movement in our great staples for export is the most setiye, are generally lower than at any other period of the year. We now me the reverse, and rates ruling as high as at any point daring the season. (From Tema and Brothers' Circa Oz.) Curios —Our last circular w's written on Friday, 20th instant, for the Arctic steamer of 21st. Oa Saturday, 21st, the sales amounted to 600 bales, and the war panic had set tled down to a calmer feeling—one of res . goation to the fate impending on the advice' per Africa, hourly ezpected. These came to hand on Sunday morning, and the effect thus tar has been shown today in 'Weser( upwards of 4,000 bales, at very irregular prices, varying from I to 9 advance, and in some instances, in Uplands, which were the most depressed, eves le. above the rats, accepted on the ever memorable M•incley, 16th December. We revise our quotations, tieing as our basis the moderate sales of the day. This reaction proves that the &cline on this side was produced by no °Our cause than a feeling of distrust arising from the ur.set- Ced state of political affairs on the continent, greatly allayed by the advice, per Atria.

We have as vet no answer per telegraph from southern markets to the Africa's advice,. _ _ When we estimated the crop on the sth ult. at 2,07.5,000 to 2,153,000 bales, we fully (mowed to see the receipts on or before the 1.4 of January 50,000 to 75,000 bale. in excess of last season, for we knew that the comparatively high prices ruling would induce *very planter to use his utmost exer tions to market his crop. Contrary to expectation, the receipts are materially behind times of last season (58,565 bales), the deficiency being now greater in the aggregate then before the rise in the Alabama Rionfe, the lowness of which had previously delayed the receipts at Mobile ; and the stocks at the interior towns were also light. With all the Jaen before us bearing upon the question, and guided only by the d • to furnish reliable information, we r, iterate our full and unshaken confidence in the opinion that our estimate will prove a full ore. FLOM-The market has settled into its usual winter quiet. There is a moderate demand for home use, but for export less inquiry.

ANNUAL RETURN OF FIRES IN LONDON.—Yeattir day morning Mr. Braidwood, the superintendent of the Ludon Fire Engine Establishment, laid his report of fin s which had occurred in the metropolitan district during the past year, before the managing committee, at the chief sta tion in Watling street Mr. Braidwood described the Lumber of premises totally destroyed and considerably damaged as being 247. Of these the moat exteneive was that which occurred in Mark-lane, City, and which was not entirely extinguished for nearly two months. The property destroyed on that occasion was roughly estimated at upwards of 200,0001., bat the precise amount of lots has never been accurately learned. Neither could anything likely to be depended upon be gleaned as to the origin of the misfortune. The next fire of any importance was that which co tuned on the night of Thursday, the 3rd of October, in the Southwark Bridgeroad. Although the engines of the brigade were stationed immediately opposite, and the Num& was on the spit in less than two minutes after the alarm wee given, the whole of Messrs. Brookes' candle works were burned down, and several bonus seriously damaged. The next district which suffered, and that to • serious extent, by fires, was Bermondsey. From the 17th of October to the 25th of December, a great number of very alarming and de vastating conflagrations happened, which laid in ruins a vest amount of property. Amongst the kuildiage described as considerably damaged was the Travelless' Club. The report returns the number of buildings slightly injured se being 621, whilst in the preceding year they were only 582, showing an increase et 39. The total number of premises entirely destroyed and seriously damaged in 1849 wee 256, being 9 more than lest year. The twat number of fins of all kinds last year was 868, whilst is 1849 they were only 838, showing an increase of 30 fins during the put twelve months. The feu alarms during the lest yesr were 91, whilst the year before they were only 76. The chimneys on Ilse lest year were 79, whilst in 1849 there were 89. The number of fatal fires last year was 17, and the number of lines lost 18, whilst the number of persons who perished from the same cause in the preceding year was 28, which shows a decrease of 8 last year. The total number of calls for assistance during the peat year was 1,038, whilst in 1849 the calls were 1,003, showing an increase of 35. The origin of a great many fires cannot be accounted ter; • great amber, however, are returned as being caused by sparks, gee, huller matches, smoking tobacco, clinakinuess, and ex plosion of fireworks.
