On :he 7th of September, between one and two o'clock in the alvtaing, a fire broke out in the Quebec suburbs of Montreal. At ::.ii time not a breath of wind was stirring, but scarcely had the fire es:ended to the adjacent house, when a very high wind arose in the sJuth, and drove the flames with most appalling force and ra ;!di!y, in its own direction. The fearful consequence was, that the .?..r:es spread with the rapidity of lightning from house to house, ;1 .3 from street to street, until four sections of the Quebec suburbs tec.me almost one scene of devastation and ruin. 'louses demolished . . . 4 Houses burnt . . 12 houses injured . . . . 5 Barn burnt . . . • ,1 The number of persons burnt out amounts to 558, and ground • ::h the flames ravaged extends to three acres in length by two in :elt:i.

TIIK ACTOR AND THE CRITIC. innx 11i! EDINBURGII EVENING COURANT OF MONDAY. We think it an imperious, though a painful part of our dilly, to lay before our readers a statement of the follooN in circumstances : Yesterday (Sunda,), while the individual who is the responsible Editor of this paper, was attending a funeral in the Greyfriars Church-yard, a person, who we be lieve to be an actor in the Edinburgh Theatre, of the tame of Pritchard, at the moment the last token of respect was observing, and before the company had re tired from the grave, abruptly addressed him in lan guage to this effect " That notwithstanding the so. kmatty of the occasion—the holy day—and the S.l. credness of the spot, he could not omit the opportunity of saying that he would not permit his feelings to be irritated any longer, and that he (meaning the Editor of this paper), in his opinion, was a scurrilous rascal V' A cod was then thrust iuto the hand of the Editor, siho, recollecting himself, merely observed, that this v..s7ieither the time nor the place for such conduct and c'serzations;" and immediately tore the card without lookllg at it, and walked slowly from the church-yard with the Gentlmen who accompanied him. Ignorart, as we are, of the motives which have tempted the person we have named to so daring a yin la:ion of the sanctity of the day and place, and totally unconscious of ever having alluded to him but as an actor, we might leave these facts without commeat— but in our private capacity, we feel bound to say, after consulting a friend, by rank and experience in every respcct qualified to direct us by his opinion, that the committer of an outrage of a kind so unprecedented — so appalling to all feelings of religion and common decency—is not entitled to other notice than pity. In the exercise of our public duty we have had occasion to criticise the performers of our Theatre, and are con ten: to know, that in the general expression of our opi t;on,,, we have merely echoed the public voice. We shall not consequently be deterred by conduct, however gross or disgusting, from doing so. We owe the Public a duty paramount to every other consideration, and that duty we shall perform, as we have hitherto endea routed to do, fearlessly and honestly. PROM THE EDINBURGH OBSERVER OF TUESDAY. Tnseies ROYAL.—Last night,when Mr. PRITCHARD, who personated the Duke, in Clari, appeared on the stage, a sort of tumult ensued. Cheers and hisses came frcrn every part of the house ; but the former, as far as we could judge, predominated. Mr. PRITCHARD then came forward, and addressed the audience nearly as follows: " LADUJI AND Gurrixssam—Am I to undtrstand from this that you expect me to give some explanation respecting a paragraph which appeared in the Edinburgh Courant of today? If so, 1 beg have to state, Ladies and Gentlemen, that the Editor of that paper has been in the habit of perseveringly attacking my professional reputation. He has, likewise, attempted to withdraw from me the r:putation of a Gentleman—a character, which 1 presume to think, have supported off the stage to the satisfaction of my friends. Ladies and Gentlemen, was this to be borne? I - le has asscrted that Miss F oote mus t have felt herself degraded by acting Fir- L "‘te to my Don Felix—and why? because she had appeared in that character with Mr. Charles Kemble; thus contrasting my humble abilities with those of Mr. Kemble, who is at the ' "IT head of his profession—( Applause.) Ladies and Gentlemen, I beg leave to state, that the paragraph in the *want of today, with respect to our rencontre of yesterday, is not correct. The observations passed on me in the Saturday's paper so inflamed my niind, that yesterday, when I saw the author of this calumny, it war With the greatest difficulty I restrained myself till the melan choly duty we were called upog s : d perform was over. Upon re- Ltiog front the ground, I add him in the following terms:— SIC,I wish to speak with you.' He said, Some other time.' I replied, ' No, Sir, no other time; you have hurt my feelings to that degree, that notwithstanding this holy day, and the melancholy business we have been engaged in, I cannot forego the opportu nit y of telling you , in the presence of these Gentlemen, that you are a scurrilous reseal for defaming me in the manner that you have dune, and her e i s my a dd ress, ' upon which I presented him with my card, which he retained. This, upon my honour, is a true state ment of the matter." The play then proceeded without further interruption. At the Adjourned Middlesex Sessions, yesterday, Joseph .Ssech and Timothy Laois, respectable inhabit ants of Hounsl ow , were indicted for an assault on two c): the Bow•street patrol. The case was--Johnson had arrested a person named Levingstone, on an assault st.rrant, but who resisted, when the officers called upon the prisoners to assist them in taking their pri soner to the cage. Mr. Such said, Levingstone ought Lot to be treated so, as he was a respectable man, and could get bail; and Lewis hissed the officers, in com mon with a mob who had assembled. The Jury ac quitted the prisoners. ~..:_ hRIGHTON, OCTOBER is.

As it was, Mr. Cour teney could nos or did not even go to the end of the rope. Previously tided energy and public spirit, the Messrs. Dixon, of to the commencement of the performance, men were engaged with Calder Iron Works. These Gentlemen set the arrogant boxes to go amongst the people to collect money—a very prudential orders of the mock committee at defiance, and when move of Jonathan, " I guess ; ' for had not such a plan been adopted, the unreasonable demand was made upon them, they it is questionable whether he would have been much the richer. warned every collier in their etriploy, who was dissatis fied with their present terms, to quit the works instan ter. The colliers belonging to three of the coal-works were so prudent as to withdraw their demands; but the colliers who work at the coal-pits at the village of Faa kine, having been so infatuated as to persevere in en deavouring to carry into effect the injunctions issued at head-quarters, their employers proceeded to eject every one of them and the'r families from the houses' they occupied in the village; and, following the exam ple of the Duke of Hamilton, they wisely resolved to replace them by new workmen. Last week present-d a singular scene at the village. There was a complete rooting out of the combined, and nothing was to be seen but the packing up of furniture and the removal or families, This beautiful and romantic spot truly re presented the picture of the deserted village, and many were the reg rets of the poor wives and childr nat leaving so pleasant a residence, and so good em ployer s. The scene was, however, soon changed. The labourers on the banks of the Monkland Canal and at the Iron Works seized the opportunity of breaking in upon the combination, and this deserving and excluded class immediately volunteered to occupy the places of the refractory colliers. For their protection a strong body of men were procured from Glasgow and the neighbourhood. They are principally men who have been in the army, seal have served in the Peninsular campaigns, and are of the most determined bravery and courage. They went up on Saturday, and have since been judiciously stationed round the country in the neighbourhood of the coal-works. They patrole night and day, and on the least alarm they can all bear upon one point. They have got one of the houses in the village converted into a guard-room. They have a fine assortment of fire-arms; and it was a novel sight to meet with heroes who had fought at Wa•erloo, or Vit toria, or scaled the walls of St. Sebastian and Badajoz, , quite busy preparing ball cartridges and all the neces sary preparations of war for the protection of the peace ful workmen. As the coal-pits ate situated close to the canal, it is apprehended that the colliers might attempt to cut the banks, and thus deluge the pits with water, and drown the new workmen. These places are there fore particularly well guarded, and if necessary, ar rangements are made for bringing the dragoons in a few minutes from Hamilton. The new workmen and their families are fast pouring into the village ; and far more than are wanted can be procured.' There are about ninety families from the parish of Campsie alone. There will be about three hundred new miners re quired fur the three pits. Early yesterday morning the new workmen made a successful commencement. They were accompanied by several regular bred col liers, who put things in order fur them, and are to in struct them in their new profession. Fortunately, al though the pits had been closed, the Messrs. Dixons had such a stock of coal and iron-stone', as placed them be. yond the power of the combination. These Gentlemen deserve the greatest praise for their meritorious efforts to break down a confederacy which is doing infinite mischief to the best interests of the country. The men employed at the iron works are quite enthusiastic in speaking of the kindness of their employers. The dis charged colliers were only allowed by the Committee to work four days in the week—they durst not put out more coals than what amounted to five shillings a day, which they generally accomplished in a few hours.-- The iron-works are very brisk at present; about 100, tons of pig iron are manufactured in a week. From the number of labourers that passed through Camlachie yesterday morning, there is no doubt that all the hands wanted at Faskine have been already procured. We hear that a modern coal proprietor, whose name is known to the public, immediately engaged part of the combined colliers, and sent his carts to Faskine for their furniture.

WESTMINSTER COURT 'OF REQUESTS, OCTOBER 15. -ftw--- EDWARDS V. BRADY.—This was the suit of a regular bred cockney prize•shoemaker, against Brady, an Emeralder, all the way from Cork, to recover 11.195. l 1 d. a reduced debt, said to be due to Edwards for the im provement of the Irishman, who denied having been improved at all; issue was therefore joined, and Ed wards was put to the proof. For the better understanding of this matter, it must be observed, that in this overgrown London of our's there are many of these crack shoemakers, that keep a sort of academy for the improvement of grown Gen tlemen who arrive from the country to mend or make their fortunes, but whe are yet too botchy in their bu siness for the spick and span beaus and belles of the metropolis, and for this they are charged from one geinea to five, as the case may be. Edwards stated, that when Brady arrived from the Green Isle, he was sick a botch as never was seen no wheres ; and taking pity upon his poverty, he agreed with him for four guineas to have the run of his garret for three months, out of which he had turned so many shoe-perior snobs ; here Brady took his seat for three months, and, if Edwards was to be believed, went forth upon the town a better man than his master for hand ling a wax end. Here Edwards made an end; and poor Brady began his story by assuring the Commis sioners upon his soal, that Edwards was no true man ; that he had indeed turned him out of his garret, but no better workman than he went in ; that the statement he had made was a vamped up matter ; that he was only vexed because he had left his quarters, and had refused to pay him his further exorbitant claim, which he pro tested was not due to him at all at all, as he had al ready paid him two sovereigns and two shillings. To induce the Commissioners to believe his story, he added, that when be took home the first pair of shoes he made, upon his own hands. he got,—what think ye,—not paid for them, nor another pair to make, no—be got the bag. The Commissioners being of opinion that something was due, gave Edwards ,El of his claim ; which decision, as is very often the case, satisfied neither party. Letters from Zsnte, to September, state that Jussur PACHA, Governor of Patios, was killed in a sortie, and that the Turkish army occupied at the siege of Missolonghi is nearly dispersed. It appears that the expedition of CANARIS against Alexandria has not been without some success, as one of the frigates was burnt. DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—Sunday, a very alarming accident took place in the parish of Cults, near Perth About one o'clock, a loud and alarming explosion was heard upon Lime-bill, accompanied by a sudden ascent of a dark cloud of smoke. A rush of the neighbouring inhabitants immediately took place to the spot, when it was ascertained that a house at present inhabited by a labourer of the name of Inglis, had been completely unroofed, the window glass forced out, and thrown to a distance, and all the doors shattered to pieces. The first Am of attention and sympathy was, (.1 course, Mrs. Inglis herself, with her three young children, who were found in the open air, and, with the exception of the mother, altogether uninjured. Her case, was, how ever, well calculated to excite sympathy. In her anxiety to rescue her children from a danger, which, in fact, was over ere she could comprehend its nein. e, she had rushed into the open air with the two youngest in her arms, whilst the oldest boy had effected his escape through a shattered window; after accvmplish ing this convulsive effort, she had sunk down exhausted and almost lifeless upon the green Lod, whilst some parts of her dress were in flames. The unfortunate mother was conveyed to an adjoining house, where she lies at present under the medical advice of Dr. Scott, Cupar ; and though dreadfully scorched, is likely to do well. The explosion was owing to a shovel being cast " ben the house" by Mrs. Inglis, which, alightin , upon the hearth-stone, struck fire, by which an open cask, containing upwards of 20 pounds of gunpowder, was immediately ignited. The Allrwin Zeitung, of the 7th instant, received this morning, contains favourable news from Greece, corroborating the reports of LIRA HU& Pacum's retreat to Navarino, the insur rection in Candia, and the repulse of RIDSCIFIIN Pacna, who, in the last assault on Alissolonghi, is said to have lost between three and four thousand men. Tint STOLEN CHILD.—In consequence of the letter received by Weller (the unfortunate man who had his child stolen frnm the arms of a girl in the Borough Road) from Mr. Dodds, the landlord of the Woolpack Tavern, Chatham, in which it stated that a woman had entered his house with an infant, and which Mr. Dodds strongly suspected was the stolen child, Weller, accompanied by an officer of the Union Hall Police Of fice, proceeded to Chatham ; but on their arrival, and to the wretched father's inexpressible grief, it turned out not to be the object of their search, and he returned 'home at a late hour on Wednesday night to his broken. hearted wife, who was anxiously awaiting his arrival; but on her being informed of her husband's ill suc cess, she fainted away, and remains so alarmingly ill, that it is supposed, if the child is not speedily found, death will put an end to her sufferings. In the Court of Requests, Castle-street, a linen draper, named Brooks, of Parliament-street, was sum moned before the Commissioners.--The complainant had been induced to purchase some calico that was ticketed in defendant's window at only Is. per yard ; but when it was cut, the shopman demanded one halfpenny per yard more, which complainant re fusing, he seized part of the purchase-money and the calico, and refused to give up either. The halfpenny, it seems, had been inserted in a small pencil-mark in the tail of the g; which practice the Commissioners condemned as unfair dealing, and ordered the linen draper to pay all expenses. • ~.., • ..
