A letter from Durham, dated Jan. IL fay,: " yeller. day a molt diflreffing circumilance occurred here, which threw the whole place, as well as the country for many miles round, into the greateft difmay and conforion. About two o'clock in the morning. Mr. Sacvcor's cotton nsanufadory, which eomprifes a very extenfive range of buildings, near Elvet church, was clifcoveresi to be on fire. There premifes have long been admired by grangers, on entering the town, for their Ilupendous fize, and containing ex. ally as many windows as there are days in the year. The Durham Volunteers were immediately roofed from their beds, and with the greatell alacrity beat to arms - % their example was followed by the Lanark (hire Militia, quartered here. As faft as the military afTembled, they repaired to the fpot %%here the fire was raging with incredible fury; both Officers and privates tiled their greaten efforts to extinguith the flames, by carrying buckets of water, to aid the few fire engines which were collected from different parts of the town ; nothing, however. could avail. It being now near four o'clock, the conflagration had gained too much power to admit of any controtil; its blazes were Peen for nearly twenty miles round the country. particularly at Gatelhead Fell, Ham flerly, and Houghton-le-Spritig, which had a grand and awful effect. By many it was fuppofcd the whole town was on tire ; others anticipated Rill a greater misfortune, and were pet-loaded that the Ca. lamity had been occationed by the French, and would not be latisfied of the contrary, till they had travel led to Durham in the courfc of the night, and learned the fad. Great fervices were rendered by the Vo lunteers and Militia, in pi oteMing and removing the property endangered by the fire. At (even o'clock in the morning, nothing remained of the Itupendous building but the fhell, the greaten part of which fell to the ground in the courle of the day. It is underflood here, that only 6cool. is infitred on the premifes ; the ltds Inflamed will amount to upwards of 20000 i. The new building and cottages facing the road, ercaped being dolt oyed, in (-me mtafare, owing to the little wind at tire time, but more p tr ticalarly on account of the how.- that was lying on the boobs. which prevented the flames from com municating, or it is impnfroble to fay. where the difaßrout affair would have ended. It will be a fortu nate circuit:ol2sec. if all the perfons employed at the asannfaaory have efeaped being burnt to death ; at recent it is not clearly afccrtained ; none, that I have beard of, are known to be mans." OLD BAILEY SESZIONS. Yellerday the SeMons commenced before the Right Hon. the Lou) Mtroe. LORD Cotter Belton, Mr. Jutlice Roost, Mr. Justice LAweenci, Mr Re course, ice. germ; ak Cornriley. John Neenfran, EdextrilTajlor and yaw/ Draper, flood capitally indiaed on the late maiming and (booting All, for feloniougy and ma. licioufly Robbing and cutting Thomas Coltman, a Conflable, on the evening of the 3d of November lad, in the with of St. Luke. Mr. Kum opened the profecntion by fitting that the three prifoners, Taylor. Corneilley,',and Draper, were charged as principals, and the other prifoner Newman, only as an acccffary before the fie. He Paid the profecutors were of of two parifhes, St. Sepulchre's and St. Luke; that the Magiflrates had Wiled a warrant for the purp3fe of fearching difor derly houfes, and to apprehend idle people, who might be found likely to dilLurb the public peace; end that in confequence of this warrant being put into execution, the affaalt charged in the indiament took place. He then proceeded Ilsortly to floe the particular circumllance of the cafe, which will appear from the fubdance of the evidence which was adduc ed. As to the prifoner Taylor, he acknowledged, that although he was charged as a principal along with others in this tranfaaion, yet be could not un dertake to prove that any perfonal violence or threats were ufed by him on the occafion. Samuel Stidgentan, High Conftable of the Fin. (bury Divifion, in the pa&iOs of St. Luke, produced the Search Warrant, figned by two of the Magian:es of Hatton Garden. Bridgman depofed, that in obedience to the war rant, be iffued precepts to call feveral conflables to meet him, and that the profectitor Thomas Coltman was one of the number. In order to put it in execu tion they went to a pub;ic.houfe called the Cock and Bell, in Old•fireet. He therefaw the prifoner Cor. neilley, taking a pint of beer at the bar, but did not think it neceffary to apprehend him at that time.— He, however, took up five diforderly perfons, and tent Coltman and ethers with them, en Old greet watch houle, and he himfelf then proceeded to the bonfe called the Oxford Arms, in the fame &en, about the did:ince of a furlong from the other. He law Newman fitting in a box in that honfe, in coin pony with feveral others ; he alto faw the prifoner Draper, but was not certain of feeinF Taylor. He heard Nenman fay, " d—n the High Conflabk,"l previous to any didurbance happening : lie took no notice of his condua, but paffed on in order to view the whole company till he came up to Draper, with whom he had tome quiet converfation, and told him, that he• (the witnefs) had come there in order to do, his duty, and therefore he could by no means be par.' tial. At this time ltc heard Newman calling him (witnefs) by name, and uttering various oaths very loudly. The witnels turned round to him, and find. " hold your tongue Jack. otherwife I mull order you into cusody. ' The ex preffions which Newman ufed were, to the belt of the witnefs's recolleason, " d—n Bridgeman, b—t him, d—n the conliabk, who dares for them d—n all his b—y traps, d—n their b-y livers." The prifoner Newman then Tared out of the box with violence, and tiled the fame' words; after which be turned round to the box where bis comrades were, and laid, " d—n you, you are all a let of b—y fools, if you fuffer one of yourfelves to be taken." He then added," I would rather die firft r" or, " you could rather die Left." He, the witnefs, was not certain which of there expreffions was ufed by the prifoner, owing to the confulion which then prevailed in the !tonic. by their attempt. ing to puffs and drive away the officers. The witnefs feised hold of Draper by the coat, but owing to its tearing. he made his efcape at that time by aunt:tog up the fide of a table in one of the public boxes, where be pulled fomething out of his pocket. which the wit nefs had no doubt was a knife. Draper faid,at the fame time, " d—n your b—y liver, I'll cut out your b—y liver." On this, one of the officers (truck that prifoner over the arm, which tended to confofe him, and prevented him from opening his knife. He then riffled out upon the witnefs, and feized his flick, bin he was immediately feized by two of the Officers.— The witnefs faw one of the Officers fall, while the prifoner, with the greateff violence, got away from the other. The deponent then (deed Newman. who, he conceived. was a great acceffary to this dilturb• ante. and continued ufing fuch violent expreftions all the way towards the watch-houfe. When arrived there. one of the watchmen told the witnefs, that Coltman was violently cut. When Coneilley was feized, tome blood appeared upon him, and be Did repeatedly, " I with fhad cut their b--- livers out;" and ufed various other dreadful expreffions. Cor neifly made an ends for the blood which appeared upon him, and laid. " that tome of the b—y traps (meaning the confeables) had cut him." The witnela anfwercd, and laid, . 1 that he did not think that could be true, as he believed that none of the oinecrs had any cutting indruments about them." He then laid. "he had been cut by a bit of glafs." Ncwnian and Cinneilley were then orderedlto be handcuffed toge• titer for coating fuch a riot. Newman had arrived at the watch houfe before this molt violent part of the affray happened. The deponent was not certain of teeing Taylor there, but when brought to the watch lu,igfe, the witnefs faid to him 66 well, Mr. Tay- , tor, do ycu know me this he anfwered, that be did not. He denied alto ki.owing ally thing of the Cock and Bell, and the Oxford Arms in White-1 crols-flreet, and even difclaimed any knowledge of Hockwood (a reticin who made his efcape and' Draper. Tad he wns AJa mes Sadler, knowing that Draper being a Sadler, went fornetimes by that name. On this he confeffed having flame knowledge of Draper, but faid that be bimfelf had gone away before the affray happened. (Crofs-examined)—Newman was fomewhat drunk, tint not ituitid nor Ramming. The winters knew him to have been oncei fiflrmonger. and afterwards a publican, and as fuch had occupied the Oxford Arms, but had lately given it up ; that prifoner's wife was prefent when he was in the watch houfe, and the witnefs heard her check him for ufing Inch violent expreffions. No knife was found about the prifiner Cnrneilley. T. Leach, Ll+ one of the Juices of Peace for the Comity of Middlefes, faid that his name, signed to the warrant, was his own hand writing. and be be. sieved. that the name of Mr. Tunnn, was the real ftgastort :bat Getttlestaiki buttbey Woo: had any , r rl * 14 eashltados tordier abaft r tte co llol4 warrant, or he - Mould have the only warrant of the kind, which he had fince be came Into (Ace.
