At five o'clock yesterday morning, the school-room of the 'fork Military Asylum at Chelsea was diseovered to be On tire ; and it was so near morning, that immediate assistance was af forded by the :active exertions of the little objects of this noble charity, who, to the number of several hundreds, were em ployed in procuring water : and, by the speedy arrival of en gines from town, by ten o'clock In the marning the fire was ex tinguished, but not until a considerable portion of the interior of the southern extremity of the main edifice was consumed from the dining-hall to the roof. Last Sunday sight, a dreadful fire broke out between 11 and 12 o'clock, in the honse of Mr. Maeda, at the west side of St. Stephen's•green, which raged with unabated fnry until the en tire of the building was destroyed ; the most prompt exertions were made to stop the progress of the destructive element, but natiarionatirly there happen e d to be a scarcity of water, and notwithstanding all the efforts made to obtain it from the ad• jacent Iniases, they could not possibly supply the engines.

An old gentlewoman, of the name of O'Neill, (a re lative, we understand, of Earl O'Neill) who was deprived of sight, is, anima( others. missing. It is said the fire broke out in her apartments. A Mrs. Hare, who also lodged in the house, is missing. And the proprietor of the house, Mr. Magna, is not to be found.

Five frames, in the frarnesmith's shop were destroyed, except the wood% or:, of UDC of them ; and in one of the hams a calf and a pie were con tim d. The pig forced its way out, but the calf was burnt to dealt. And, to add to the calamity, the occupiers of tne houses, all of them working people with eamilies, had not the opiaorns nity of sa, big scarcely a single article of furniture, or even ditching, except what they had on.
