CALAMITOUS FIRE IN THE BOROUGH. -.01N.... We lament to state, that a fire broke out yrnerday morning, between five and six o'clock, at a small house, two storits in height. in a close at the back of the Horse and Groom public•house, in Arc. Guildford.street, SOuth was k,-irverhich two Irish labourers, oacned,4anaes, Doyle and Edward Kenny, lost theft. lives. The cacti of this meancholy occurrence, as we gathered them on the spot, were theses—Doyle and Kenny had been 1 drinking at a publierhouse in honour of their patron Stint ; and although they were very much intoxicated when they left the house, between two and three o'clock in the morning. yet Doyle accompanied Kenny to his lodgings, and these they continued carousing by the Ere, and singing in honour of Ireland and St. Patrick, till they both fell on the floor amongst some shavings, dead drunk. It is believed that a live coal fell from the grate upon the shavings, and set them on fire. The flames soon extended to the ceiling, and a lodger who slept over them awoke suddenly out of her sleep, and found the room filled with smoke. She created an alarm, by calling .. Fare!' she found the boards so hot as to be Famful to her feet. She awoke her husband, and as soon as he got out of bed, they descended, the flames reaching as high as their chamber window, and it was with the utmost difficulty that they and the other lodgers escaped . with their bees. Very few articles of forniture were saved. The neighbours exerted them+elves in the, most prompt and praiseworthy manner, on being informed by the other lodgers that Doyle and Kenny wets heard in the lower apart ment a few hours before; and the firemen, on their ;st rive!, having extinguished the flames, proceeded to ex amine the place for the purpose of allaying the general anxiety that was felt for their safety. The worst which had been anticipates' proved to be realized. The bodies of the two unfortunate men were discovered, in a re clining position, with their heads against two chairs, their lower extremities burnt off, and their faces so much disfigured, that not a feature could be distin gnished; and on their being removed into a coffin, to be conveyed to the bone-house, for an Inquest to be held On them, they dropped to pieces.' These victims of their own imprudence, were bath between 50 and 60 years of age, an& were very indusseireus trace...': is had been employed at a mill inrihe peighboisrbootitor a great number of years, and he has left a wife and two children.

Mr. Rosa said that Mr. Browne had been brosght up 'by habeas corps. to apply for his discharge, to Which, he understood, theta'was no longer any oppo sition. Mr. Horn, for the assignees, without absolutely assenting. did sot object to his discharge, as the assig nees had no wish to keep Mr. Browne i . prison longer th'an they had reason to suspect that he withheld infor mation horn them respecting the property ; but should they hereafter see any grounds for believing that he could impart aay farther information, they would, of course, act upon them. On this understanding the discharge was ordered to issue. The LORD CHANCELLOR mentioned the cases of Watkins v. Made, and B.own v.

These were actions of assault and battery, committed at Billericay, on the 29th June last. To each action the defendant pleaded Not Guilty. The plaintiffs and the defendant are respectable tradesmen at Billericay. During the last Election for Mahlon, for which Borough. it will be recoils cted, there was a very hot contest, party beat had extended its in fluence to the neighbouring town of Billerkay, in which many Maldon freemen resided. The plaintiffs and the defendant espoused opposite sides, the plaintiffs Whig and the defendant Tory. On the 29th of June, the election being then over about a week, Captain Spiny, a Gentleman of fortune, residing in the neighbourhood, praweas dinner- soli. temantry, other persou of the Rise party, at the Crown Inn, Billericay. The plaintiff. Mr. Wm. Rolph, who was one of the Captain's tenants, got a hint, tor his own comfort he had better stay assay, as the embers ef the late ele ction contest were still glowing, and something might occur which would be unpleasant to his feelings; accordingly, Win. Rolph staid away. There is a public thoroughfare through the Crown Inn yard, and part of Mr. W. Rolph'spte. raises abutted on the yard. In the evening, about eight the defendant, who had just come from the Crown, with his political zeal, whetted by copious libations, to the appropriate toasts which bad been given at table, met Mr. W. Rolph in the yard. There bad been some old bickerings between them. On the instant, the de fendant shook his Mae watch ribbon at Mr. Wm. Rolph, in a taunting manner ; the latter, in return, shook his orange ribbon at the defendant. Both actions were accom i anied by jeering expressions, which , were not proved in evidence. The defendant then seized William Ralph by the collar, and knocked his bat off. A scuffle ensued, and blows were exchanged--- with mutuality of black eyes and bloody noses. The plaintiff, George Rolph, who witnessed this scene, from his shop, on the opposite side of the way, came to rescue his brother, who was immediately pulled away, and pushed through his own gate, and placed in secu rity from further violence. The defendant then di rected Isis attack towards the plaintiff, George Rolph, and several blows were interchanged between them. In the meantime, a constable, named Curtis, who was also of the Orange party, was sent for, and on his coming up to preserve the peace. the defendant seized him by the necktl.th with grt at violence. After a vio lent struggle, the defendant was overpowered, and placed in the care of an ostler in the coffee-room of the inn. Much abusive language was attributed to the de fendant, who, amongst other thiags, said that William Rolph was a d---sd thief, and he had evidence in his pocket, black and white, of the fact." During the con flier above-mentioned, both plaintiffs were perfectly sober, and the defendant, who was flushed widowing, had evidently come worst off in bodily punishment. It was stated that varioiss attempts bad been made to allay the bad passions occasioned by this transaction, by amicable arrangement, but without success, and these actions Were proceeded in. When the, first case was opened, the Learned Judge interposed, and endeavoured to cacti his influence to induce the parties to tome to an amicable compromise, and settle their differences privately. The defendant's Counsel was disposed to yield to this propos.tion, and ' a communication was made with the other side, but the term! proposed not being acceded to, the causes went on. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALZ told the Jtiry that the plain tiffs were respectively entitled to a verdict, and they would say what damages ought to be given ander all ! the circumstances. _ The Jury found for . the plaintiff in each cue—DAma• get ls. costs la.

The istaintiff's . wife bad WED respectably brought up and virtuously educated,.and until an improper acquaintacee with the defendant had begun, she and her husband lived in harmony together. Mrs. Mason was the mother of four children. and be would shew, that until seduced by the defendent,(ehrs. he was sorry to say. was a married man, end a father,) she had beets an affectionate wife and tender patent.— The defendant had regularly used the house, until his ifittniliarity with the plaintiff', wife became too evident to be concealed, and a notice forbidding him to come is the premises was' served upon him.

He argued, that ' as the plaintiff bad by his conduct previously to Wake field's intimacy with his wife exposed bar to the designs of any intriguing individual, by drinking so twinned, as to be unable to watch over her conduct and morals; and as, immediately after, the discovery at Bogen', be had taken her home and continued to live with her as before, it was plain he did not estimate his li ss at a single straw, and he trusted the Jory would give• the plaintiffthe smallest coin in the realm as damage:. Mr. Baron Gaaaow. in summing up, observed,, if we bad the power, we should all say we very much disapprove of the condutt of the defendant; but. we cannot settle what sum we would make him contribute to a public charity ; we have no power for that purpose. We are to say what compensation the plaintiff desersirs. Is it a case in which he would deserve as much as Mould pay foe a dinner upon his victory? If so, he would probably sit at the top, and his wife at the bottom, of the table, and they would all get drunk together. The Jury immediately found a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages, One Farthing. Mr. Baron Ganaovt—The public are much indebted to you, Gentlemen, for this .verdict. Thew sorts of actions are quite disgraceful. Mr. CANNIELL.—In• only one case, since the statute of Elizabeth, where a very young man was enticed iu a very scandalous manner, the Judge certified for the de fendant. It would be a stock to the morals of the country, if a defendant like„tfl • e present , should so meet with the protection of the Jddkei that he should inter. pose and prevent the defendant paying the plaintiff's costs. He submitted more damage would be does By such a certificate, and that the balance of convenience would be the other way. • Mr. Baron Gisastow.—l feel myself. bound by the author ity to follow it, and I shall be glad it ameba be followed. I think the balance of inconvenience would be if the Judge were prevented from 'certifying. The action was such that you had just enough to stand epee to prevent a nonsuit. I think if a defendant conies into a Court of Justice impleaded by a man who has conducted himself like this plaintiff, and who retaliate only a farthing damages, that the plaintiff ought ipst, to have mote lost, than damages. _ LANCASTII.B„.ISIAsca ti.
