FIRE AND GREAT LOSS OF LIFE IN POATLAND.STREET, SOBO. At half-past 11 last bight a fire was discovered in the shop, No. 6, Portland street, Soho, occupied by a working jeweller sensed George Chard. Lobb, 73 C, the constable on duty, at onoe sent for essista•os, and Sergeant Allen, 20 C, coming up, saw • man named William Henry Jennings, • furniture dealer, of 2, Holten. street, Soho, endeavouring to pull down the shut ters of the shop. The sergeant told him not to do so, as the draught would only feed the fire, but the man still persisting, Allen threw him in the carriage way, and then, hearing sounds of persons inside, burst open the street door, and by that act enabled six or seven of the in mates to rush from the passage to the street. The ser rent then ascended the staircase to the second floor, where he found • woman and • ch'ld about two years old, which he brought to the street. Allen then saw Jennings pull down the shutters of the shop, when the thanes burst into all parts of the house. The sergeant at once took Jennings into custody. The sergeant again tried his utmost to loosed the staircase, but was unable, owing to the intense smoke and heat. He then ascended the fire escape, and took a child about two years old from the fire escape man at the second Boor window and brought it down. 73 C then went to the second floor bark, where be found a very old woman, whom he brought to the street, and then searched other rooms, but found no one in them, A mon named Abrams, who was instrumental in saving some lives, wu robbed of his hat and coat, which he bad left on in engine. The fire, which originated in the shop, was extinguished by the firemen, when it was found that the shop was burnt out and the upper part of the house seriously injured. On a starch being subsequently made by the firemen the bodies of six children of the name of Spencer, the fatherbeing a porter and in bad health, were discovered in the front attic. The tames of the children are Samuel, 14k ; Sarah Ann, 12g ; Emily, 101; Joel Walter, 9 ; Edward, 7 ; and Alfred, 3. The bodies were at once put in shells from St. James's workhouse. The father was dragged through the roof by a fellow lodger. and the mother managed to escape with one child, about 10 months old. Several of the inm►tes who escaped were taken to the St James's workhouse, where they were kindly treated by the master (Mr. Mackay) and the matron. The complaints of the inhabitants of the street of the lacy in obtaining water were loud and mend. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. A sensation which it is almost impossible to desale has been created throughout the whole of this district From the official investigation made by Mr. Sampson Low, the secretary of the Royal Society, it appears that Conductor Clark was called about half-paid 11 o'clock by several per. sons who came running, and informed him that the 11-e bad broken out He immediately started with his escape, and reached the scene in one minute and a half. He then found the fire coming out of the front shop, and the shutters down. He backed his escape to reach the second floor, as a man implored him to do so to save his three children, stating that they were the only children in the house. Having adjusted the escape, three or four men robed up, and Clark had to climb over their balks, and once he fell. The conductor rushed into the room with the fire burning around him, and between them they saved two children apparently suffocated. Clark next dashed through the flames and by nearly losing his own life managed to save another child, but in so doing he was terribly burnt over the hands. These children were ap parently between the ages of one and five years. By this time the house was fully on fire, when Mr. Inspector Spencer arrived and also conductor Robinson, with the Soho escape, just as Clark was bringing down the third child. The crowd seemed for the most part partially tipsy, whilst some ware so drunk that they caused the greatest confusion. All the available force was placed round the burning build ing, but unfortunately, whether the tomcod's had gone out or bad not been called, one thing is clear, that whilst the "snorting steam-monster" was puffing away, not the least supply of the New River Company's water could be obtained for ten minutes, and during the interval the flames made fearful progress, and the whole of the lower and upper part of the house was in flames. At this conjuncture a scene that defies description ensued. A man, his wife, and other branches of his faro'ly came up, inquiring where his six children had been taken to. No one, of course, knew anything beyond the fast hut three children bad been sand. Water at length having been obtained the engines were set to work, and Shand and Mason's land steamer did wonders in a comparatively short space of time, eventually sub- I du'ug the fire. A search was then made of the upper floor of the building, and in the top room were discovered the bodies of the six unfortunate children. They were not much burned, death having evidently been caus:d by suffo cation. The names of the poor creatures were—Samuel Spen cer, aged 14; Sarah Anu Spencer, aged 12 ; Emily Spencer, aged 10 ; Joel Walter, aged 8 ; Edward Spencer, aged 7 ; sod Alfred Spencer, aged 3 years. The parents of the children, it seemed, upon hearing the breaking of the shutters, rushed down to see the came. They found the place on fire, and were unable to ascend again to save their chodren. Captain Shaw, in his official report, describes the damage as follows :—" No. 6, Portland-street, St. James's, Mr. Chard, jeweller, ground-floor burned out, and upper part of home very seriously damaged by fire ; sic lives lost. No. 5, ditto, if. L. Keyes, let out io tenements, frost scorched and ceiling damaged by water ; contents insured in the Sun Office. No. 7, ditto, Mr. Webb, engineer, ainiilar &swage ; insurri in the County Ftrwoffice. No. 1 opposite, Mr. Smith, harness maker, front of premises damaged by fire, insured in the County Fire-office. House of Mr. George Saunders , butcher, similar d amage t o th e premises and the contents. So much damage (says the gallant captain) was canoed by • Winger pulling the abutters down." MARLBOROUGH.STREET POLICE-COURT. William Henry Jennings, furniture dealer, of 2, Hollen. street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Knox, at the M►rl borocgh-street Police Court, by Inspector Gasper with re sisting Policeeergeent Allen, 20 C, at a house on fire in Portland -street, Soho, the previous night. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, de fended; and Mr. Staples, foreman of the C d , ariet, attended to watch the case on the part of the London Fire Establishment. Sergeant Allen, 20 C, said—Last night I was at a fire at C Portland-street, and saw prisoner trying to pull down the shop shutters. I told him the danger he was likely to muse. As he refused to go I threw him in the carriage way and then burst open the door. Seven or sight of the inmates rushed out of the passage where there was no fire. I then went up and brought down two persons, and then entered the house again, and from the first floor brought down a second child. While at the door with the child eaw prisoner spring the bar, and two shutters fell, the fire that time being principally confined to the shop. I seized the prisoner and haodc I him over to a constable. I then went up to the landing, but could go no further. In consequence of the draught caused the fire went right through the house. By Mr. Knoz—&: lives were lost. By Mr. Lewis—l don't know the prisoner, and that he has rendered assistance at fires. I don't know it was a friend of the prisoner's who saved some lives. Mr. Lewis—All the sergeant has said is perfectly true, tit. Inspector Draper—Mr. Staples is present, your worship, if you would like to hear him. 11r. Knox—There is no nonentity. 11r. Lewis—l am sure everyone most admit that great 'edit ie due to the sergeant for his conduct throughout. 'a babel( of the prisoner. all I can my is, that he has assisted . a great many fires, and that all he did was to attempt to •in an entrance that he might be of assistance. All I can y will not alter the unfortunate state of things, ►nd it is ulch be regretted under the truly painful circumstances, lien the police were in the execution of their arduous duty, bet the prisoner did nut at once desist and go away. 'bat she prisoner did he did with a good ioten ion, end with that remark I will leave thecase in your orthip's hands. Mr. Knox—l am prepared to take that view of the case, , 1 to believe that the prisoner was actuated by good in. ration, and that in acting as he thought for the best hehas "woe ¢ large share in causing the death of those unfortunate bildren last night. Any person who opposes the antbori .yes, whether the police or the military, in the execution of 'heir duty, does a moat improper thing, however good his ntettiona may be ; and I should not be doing my duty if I id not mark my sense of the prisoner's conduct. The real Punishment, however, to him must be the regret he will `eel to his death that in what he did last night he was l4rgely concereed in the death of those who perished. 51r. Knox then sued the prisoner 5/. or one month, for •betructiog the police is the execution of their duty, and said—Mr. Duper, I should way much like the ear geant's conduct to be represented to the Oommissioaers of Polio'. It is beyond all praise. It is more like the heroism of a soldier on the field of battle. Be risked his life for others, and no one who beard the feeling manner in which he detailed his conduct, could fail to admire it. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) WORSHIMIREEL BTARIUNO. Frederick Deitz and Frederick Become, respectable-look ing persons, and described as butchers, were charged before Mr. Leigh with the following serious assault : George Murphy, whose bead wan bandaged, stated that he was a porter and lived in Chambers-street, Whitechapel, and on the previous night, while returning home in company with one David Lynch, they overtook the prisoners, against one of whom he believed his companion acmdentally pushed. Deitz instantly struck him (witness) down and kept him there u he lay on his backluntil a police-constable came up, and relearned him ; subsequently he found that he was bleeding from the head. Lynch, who is a labourer, gave a similar account of the matter, adding that he perceived something glitter ing in the right band of Deita—that Flat vine struck him three or four times on the heed, although he raised his bands to ward the blows off, and then knocked him down by a blow on the chest. After the prisoners were in custody be maw blood flowing from a cut in his wrist, and there were like wise two wounds on his bead. Barnard, 191 H, said that on hearing cries of " Po"es !" and hastening to the spot be found the four persona in question engaged as described by the prosecutors; he caught hold of Herrin.), who directly struck him on the head with his fist. He did not, however, release his prisoner, but with the other hand dragged Delta from Murphy, as he was on the ground. Not any knife or sharp instrument was found upon either prisoner. Medical evidence was given of the injuries inflicted, from which it appeared that on the heed of Mr-phy there was an incised wound reaching nes-ly to the bone, and that it most have been mused by • sharp hurt' ament, such as a small- Waded knife ; another and similar wound, bat not so deep, ems near it ; and Lynch had two wounds on the hr ad also. The prisoners denied hav:ng poxesaion of knives, and declared the injuries were caused by the fist or the fail. Mr. Leigh ordered their committal to the Central Cri minal Court on • charge of wounding, but consented to accept bail in heavy sureties, which were quickly produced. SHARE LISTS.-(THIS DAY.)

AID STOW% ex re I Itaaw•Te. I f ir" Prim . atritti THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER, .27, 1862. _ WESTMINSTER. George Poster and Arthur Jer7ll,t;o boys, were obargrd with befog Brook and incapable of taking rare of them selves._ Mr. Paynter, on looking at the defendants, said—Whit, are these boys charged with being di uric? Inspector Butler—Yes, sir, they are. Mr. Pa) liter —W hat are their ages? Inspector Butler—Fceter is 16 years of age, Jet :n only 12. Mr. Paynter—lt is really shocking. Were they much intoxicated? Inspector Butler—They were found lying in the Ken sington-road at eight o'clock last evening, so thoroughly in toxicated that it was necessary to carry them to the sta• tion-hone on the stretcher. Mr. Payoter—How esme you boys to get in this shock. ins state? Defendants—Christmas boxes. Mr. Pay nter —Clu:stmas boxes Defendants—Yi • ; the money we bad given us. Inspector Butler—Jerrie was insensible for many horns after he was brought to the station-house. Mr. Payntee (to the boys)—Who made you drank Defftdaatl—Nob ;we did it ourselves. Both boys at this laughed. Mr. Paynter—lt is nothing to lxugh at, and I am vs/ sorry to find that you do not feel becoming regret at your misconduct. It is a most melancholy thing to find boys of such ape upon such a charge before me. It is a moot unproausinl beginning in life, and it is difficult to say what may be its e id. I s.sb I had it in ml t 'war to punish those who supplied you with liquor until you got ;qui this shocking state. They were fin( 15s. each, and locked up in default. WANDSWORTH. THE CASE Or STEALING • POST LETTER. °vow and hie mother, Eno,. s Haute& were re-examined before Mr. Ingham, on • charge of atee` . tig and recei‘:ng a post-letter containing a money-order. . . . . It will be remembered that the case was brought to light by El.on's stepmother, who lives in Mendip-rood, Battersea, to whom the prisoner lawn stated that, while in the company of Hollis, he stole the letter from the box at the post-office in High-street, Wands worth, sod that Hollis's mother had the mooey-order. When Sergeant !Keenan spoke to Mrs. Haines she denied having a letter. brought to her by the boys, but afterwards stated that they brought her a piece of paper, upon which she hand: d him the money-order, and ex pressed her ignorance of its value, and asse..ed that she kept it to shore her husband, but she had forgotten to do so. Mr. Peacock, from the Post-office, now attended, and sug gested that there was no evidence against Hollis, and that the female should be punished for the unlawful posicssion of the onler, as she was the more to blame. Mr. Wilson, who defended the female, endeavoured to show that the conduct of the stepmother in communicating with the police was for the purpose of getting the boy into a reformatory, and relieving herself of the borden of his support. He also said that his client, although a very re spectable marrir d woman, was an illiterate person, and was unacquainted with the nature of a money-order. The boy Hollis wee discharged, and Mr. Wilson a"ed him sea witness. He mew 1 the other boy of the rob bery, and said Eleon went to his (witness's) mother and Cold her that it was a money-order, and that if she could pass it she should have half the money. Witoma's mother said she would let it remain until his father came home, and that he should read it. The prisoner Ellen, whom Mr. Wilson stated was known as the " daylight thief," though so young, said Hollis first pointed out the letter to him, and proposed that he shou'd take the money-order to his mother. Mr. Ingham sentenced Bison to be whipped, and to re ceive eight strokes and seven days imprisonment, and the female to be impriaon . I for two months with hard labour. It appears that, according to the terms of the Whipping Act, the number of strokes ordered by the meg:strata are to be mentioned in the commitments. FRIGHTFUL CARRIAGE ACCIDENT AT GOLCAR. A gloom has been thrown over the locality of Gol- I car, a village near Huddersfield, by an event of a most melan choly character which occurrcl on Christmas-day. The' Rev. J. E. Downing and family had aoceptal an invitation to dice, on Christmas-day, at Milmbridge House, the residence of Mr. George Armitage. The party left the parsonage about half-past 4 in the afternoon, in two carriages, one of which contained ,Mr. Downing and hie servant, and the other his wife and son, the Rev. H. Down ing, the curate of Golcar, 'and another lady and gentleman. On arriving at a point in the road, about a quarter of a mile from the Parsonage, the horse made a dash forward, and came in contact with a well which fences the road from a precipitous descent of some 40 feet in depth. The force of the concussion was so great that a portion of this writ was knocked down, and Mr. Downing and his servant were both jerked over the precipice. The set /ant happily alighted on a alight projection only a few yards from the road, and escaped with al;ght injury; but Mr. Downing fell the whole distance, and wag picked tip almost Wire. Medical assistance was at once sent for, and the reverend gentleman was conveyed home on a sofa, accompanied by his grief-stricken relatives and friends. He lingered until ten o'clock the same evening, when he dir 1 from the eff. ,ts of the injuries. The deceased gentleman was universely beloved and esteemed by hie parishioners, amongst whom be had laboured for upwards of 26 years. His son, the Rev. H. Downing, assisted his deceased father in the dis charge of his ministerial duties, as curate.—Manchester °attrition. THE CASE OF THE REV. MR. 1/PLATTOHLET. The following were the points raised for the Rev. Mr. !['Laughlin before Lord Heaves, on the strength of which he was liberated ad interim:—l. The proceedings com plained of were irregular and inept, in consequenoe of the departure of the presiding justice from the recognised form and substance of oath usually administered in the courts of Scotland. 2. The qualified oath above-mentioned having been accepted by the court, more especially after the ex planatioos given, the complainer could no t b e h e ld a s g uilty of a contempt bideclining toaaswer tle questions referred to. 3. The complainer was illegally and improperly committed to prison for contempt, in respect that in his testimony he complied with all that he undertook in the oath taken by him, and that he was not required totake any otheror further oath. 4. It was irregular and incompetent for the justices to issue the sentence and warrant complained of, in face of the offered plea of guilty by the accused parry, which would I-eve rends-ed any procedure against the complainer as a witness unnecessary. 5. The information possewed by the complainer in regard to the subject of inquiry before the justice having been obtained by him as &confession from • penitent to a clergymen, and having been received on the footing that it should not be disclosed by the complainer, be was not bound to answer the question put to him. 6. Generally, in the circumstances stated, the proceedings com plained of being illegal, unjustifiable, and oppressive, the warrant ought to be suspended, and interim liberation should be granted as craved. HYDROPHOBIA.--A farmer at St. Meurice (Saone et Loire) has just died in horrible suffering from hydro phobia, after more than three mouths from the time of being bitten by a dog. When the bite took place, he made use of some quack remedy. and paid no further attention to the wound, which healed up. Just 96 days after be felt the first attacks of the fearful malady, and seeing that his PM was hopeless, immediately put his affairs in order. On the following day he was raying mad, but between the paroxysms had sufficient presence of mind to warn the bystanders to keep out of his reach. As his fury kept on increasing, the assistance of gendarmes was obtained, and he was rolled in • blanket, and bound on a bed, where he died, three days from the time of the first attsok.—Geliyna ni.

Sandbank at six o'clock this morniog. At daylight information of the wreck was brought to Lytham, and the life boat of the National Lifeboat Institution stationed there was thereupon 'mulched, without delay, to her aristeace. Oa nearing the vessel they perceived the crew attempting to leave in their own boat, as the did not oh. wave the approach of the lifeboat. Owing to t h e heavy surf that was running, their boat was in a sinking condition when the crew, numbering thirteen men, were taken from bar by the lifeboat. The ship's boat went down iRIMO. Matey afterwards, and the poor fellows had the narrowest escape of their lives. The vessel has since become a total wreck: This valuable lifeboat has during the past two or three mouths saved 14 men from the American ship Annie E. Hooper, of Baltimore, saved the schooner Circe, of Ar- broath, and her crew of Ave men, and brought the derelict sloop Mert,of Strauraer, into port, and saved 13 me. frost the barque Brazil, of Liverpool.
