Letters from India state, that the forest of Imel &lir (in the kingdom of Arai was, through the ne gligence of some wood-cutters, who had kindled a fire at the foot of several lofty trees, in a state of con flagration in the early part of Tune. The forest was 6,5 miles in length, and 28 in breadth ; and such was the power of the flames, aided by a high wind, that massesof burning a NA, weighing half* ton, were car , ried through the air to a distance of 20 miles. Fifty villages in the vicinity of the forest were destroyed.- 1 Many of the unfortunate and idolatrous natives be -1 lieving the calamity to be a direct visitation of some vengeful deity, and not choosing to survive the loss of their property, precipitated themselves into the flames. At the date of these letters the conflagration had continued with unabating fiercenessfer five weeks; and from the vast area in which the body of fire lay, together with the contiguity of other forests, the de struction of half the kingdom appeared certain. OLD BAH.Er. . Saturday T. Moore, Sarah Bailey, and Hannah Green were charged with robing David Roberts, of one £2O Romford bank -note, three £5 Bank of England notes, and some other notes and silver; in all upwards of 440. The prosecutor, a Welch drover, had been to • Romford market, and sold some cattle, from whence 1 he returned on the 7th instant, and was in Smithfield 1 market, where having drank too freely he sallied forth to -Field-lane, and was from that spot conducted to Saffron-hill, and found his way into the " Earl of Moira public-house, formerly " The Castle," there; when he was surrounded by the prisoners, who disco vering that he had a considerable sum of money about him, they sat down with him, and helped him to drink his porter; but observing that a poor Irishman, who attended in the house, was speaking to the land ; lord, as if suspicious of them, they suddenly decamped, 'and the unfortunate Welchnian discovered that they ' tbad emptied his pocket-book, leaving k on the table. ' %Moore endeavoured to pass the Romford £2O note to '-34r . Chapman. a publican, in Long-lane, Smithfield ; but he stopped it, knowing Moore, and hearing of the robbery, whereby the prisoners were apprehended. The capital part was dont away ; Moore and Bailey were found guilty of grand larceny, which subjects the'm to transportation for seven years, and Green not guilty. The following were convicted of fklony. viz. E. Saunders and C. Knapp, for stealing a quantity of printed books, the property of W. Fox ; G. Carring ton, for stealing 18 yards of ribbon. the property of -Eliz. Whiffin ; Marg. Molloy, for stealing 22 yards of cotton, the property of B. Webh; Mary Casey, for stealing several articles of wearing apparel, the pro perty of F. Buzzio.—And J. Maxwell was acquitted. Yesterday, Jane Anderson was indicted for stealing privately in the shop of Richard Robson, No. 72, Ox . ford-street, a piece of printed calico, value 10s. It appeared, that, on the 17th of December last, the prisoner came into the shop, enveloped in a large _shawl,. with a child in her arms: she asked to look at some printed calico, and purchased a yard. She was on the point of leaving the shop, when Thomas Jen kins, the shopman, missed a piece of cotton ; he im , Ancdiately communicated his suspicions to Mr. Rob non, who directed him to stop the prisoner, by whose side he found the stolen goods. The prisoner, who is not yet 15 years of age, stated, in her defence, that the goods had not been taken from the counter by her—the child which she had in her arms might have removed the property without her knowledge. . , The Jury found her Guilty of Stealing—but not g qlB.ll!ately—thus doing away the capital part of the 1 Indictment. The COMMON SERJEANT respited the judgment of - - the Court until next Sessions, that inquiry should be made as to the relatives of the girl; and, if possible, ' she might be provided for, without sending her out of the country. /Miry Gcucher was indicted for stealing a horse, a saddle, bridle, and chaise harness, from the stable of Richard Baxter, on the 17th of December, the pro • "perty of the said R. Baxter and others. The prisoner, it appeared, had been employed by Messrs. Baxter' and Godsal, coachmakers, in Novem ber last, and was consequently well acquainted with the place where Mr. Baxter kept his horse. Mr. sax . ter's groom, on the evening of the 17th December, Bauble-lucked the stable in which the gelding was kept : on the following morning he found the stable door had 'been broken open, and the gelding, saddle, &c. stolen thereout. On the 20th he discovered the horse in a stable belonging to Mr. Hornby, in Bed ferdbery, which the prisoner had some time before hired, as servant. to Captain Smith. The prisoner was clearly identified as the person who had brought 'the horse to Mr. Elornby's premises, and he was taken going up the yard towards the stable. On ex amining the stable, the stolen saddle and harness were found: and on searching the prisoner's lodgings, in a - pail under the bed, a alter was discovered, with the a i• 1 tials K. B. marked on it, which wa s d i r e identical , • . - , ' I hat with which the groom had secured the gliding.( IRELAND. . ,00 'the 17th of December.

After satisfying them n the 2d of January inst. Mr. Ballinger, a shoemaker, residing in Mary-la- Bonne, it appeared had employed Mrs. Jones to con- . vey a bundle from Greenwich, containing the articles : mentioned in the indictment : when she got into Ox ford-street, about nine o'clock at night, being unac- . quainted with .the road, she requested the prisoner to ' direct her, which he agreed to do—the night being ! very cold, the prosecutrix went into a conk shop, in Little Mary-la-Bonne -street, and called for some soup, . part of which she gave to the prisoner for his civility! selves there, they proceeded to the part or the dwel ling oecnpied by one Fleming, who had the care of the place for Mr. Harvey, and summoning him to come forward to a window, they immediately fi red 1 four shots at him, but fortunately without doing him any injury. Fleming instantly returned the fire, from a well-loaded pistol, and shot one of these, deluded wretches dead on the spot.

Those who wish to save much in their adventure, and purpose to have a Ticket or Share in the present valuable State Lottery, may reap the fruits of their ; intention by buying speedily. Hourtsav and Co. have a long time noticed to their Friends and the Public, the cheap price they are selling at, when compared with many Lotteries past. The novelty of the Scheme hits created an unusual demand at HORNSBY and Co.'s old established Licensed State Lottery Offices, 26, Cornhill, and St. Margaret's Hill, Borough, where Prizes to an immense amount have been sold. In the parish of West Twyford, five miles from London, there is only one house, and the farmer who occupies it is perpetual Churchwarden, and Church. warden of a church which has so incumbent, and in which no duty is performed. Overseer of the poor is not necessary. The parish has been in this state since the time of Queen Elizabeth. • A miraculous instance of preservation from destruc tion occurred in the East Essex Regimental Hospital at Harwich, in the middle of the night of Friday se'nnight :—A chimney was blown down into one of the sick wards, the whole contents of .which,' near a ton in weight, fell on each side of a bed in which a sick Sergeant lay ; the bedstead was shattered to pieces, and himself enveloped under the ponderous load, notwithstanding which he was extricated from his alarming situation unhurt—another man, who slept in the next birth, also escaped without the smal lest injury. Yesterday a boy, while cleaning a two pair of stairs window at the house of Mr. GrisewQod, sadler, on die pavement, Moorfields fell therefrom, dislocated his neck, and died , instantly. Sunday morning a young man was thrown from a spirited horse in Whitechapel-road, and so much hurt as to be taken to the Hospital with but faint hopes of recovery. Yesterday Mary King and Ann Holmes were charged, at the Mansion house, with stealing a shawl, in the shop of Mr. Gray, linen-draper, in Sun-street. Mr. Gray stated, that the prisoners came into the shop. pretending to purchase a shawl; that they looked at different sorts, and pitched upon one at 10s. value, which King agreed to pay at Gel. or we 13. per we.rle, and that it should be put by for Holmes, and left 6d. as the first payment; but. when they were going, he missed one, and accused them with taking it, which they denied ; but, on ordering the boy to fetch 2 con stable, King put her hand in her pocket, threw it on the counter, and said she meant to pay for it. On searching no money was found upon either of them. They were both fully committed. Witheri, Quelch and Freeland, (the latter of whom is a broker) were yesterday re-examined at Marlbo rough-street, charged with having broken into a watchmaker's apartment in the Brazen Head public house, Lisson-street, Paddington, and stealing 20 watches, on Christmas Eve. Quelch was admitted evidence ; and he stated, that he accompanied Withers to the prosecutor's house, when he first divulged his intention of the robbery. Withers having procnred a ladder, he ascended to the work-room, on the first ;Boor, and stole the watches; one of which the wit ness picked up, which led to the detection of the thieves, he having pledged it at a pawnbroker's; when he was taken into custody.—He also stated, that he followed Withers to the house of Freeland, 'who got up, being four o'clock in the morning, and received the property. He received tel. 9s. as his share, the next morning.—The prisoners were fully committed for trial, Saturday night the apartments of Mr. Wake, of Spitalfields, were robbed of wearing apparel and other-things, to the amount of about ie3o. Saturday morning, at half past eight o'clock, as .•a porter was carrying a chest of tea on his shoulders, in Curzon-street, May.fair, a man, dressed as a sailor, accosted ar.d bid him to put down h; load at Lady Reed's door.
