Yesterday evening, at c..e n'eloek a fire brate out in a house in Ileurietta-street, Covent-garden, belong ing to Mr. Slaw., ladies' shoe-maker. Tee dames were first observed in a back room on the first 11;ar, in the occupation of Mr. Jenks, collector of the p sr.chial rates of the parish of St. Paul, who rented the upper part of the house. The family were from home at the . time; and in a few moments. the whole of the hack part of the house was on fire ; and as the wind was north west, blowing fresh, it was feared that all the houses near Covent-garden on that Mae of the way would be consumed ; however, by the timely arrival of . the engines belonging to the different insurance o ffi ces, and the exertions of the firemen, the conflagration was got under at seven o'clock, with only the house where the fire originated being burned down. At six o'clock one of the female servants of Mr. Jenks appeared in the street in a distracted state, end from her incoherent expressiins it was susposed that a child had been burned in the house ; but from the'most strict inquiry we have every reasol to hope it is not the case. When it first broke out, it : was generally supposed that it was St. Paul's Church that was on fire. The evening service was not performed in the church, in conse. quenee of the confusion and alarm produced by this occurrence. THE DROPPED CHlLD.—Only another hill of indictment was found at the Clcrlce n Se.ssions, at the suite uf the palish of St. Andrew, Holborn, against Ann .!rnr.ons, the midwife, for dropping the child in 'rash Street, Gray's Ina Lane. The first indictment, on which she and the mother of the chid are out on hail,`altd which they have traversed, charges them with 41 conApirmy ; and in case the first charge should not be. established - , is the cause of the second indictment. IlurrEttEn Sovermions.—Tile following singular circumstance tc.nk place ou Fri.lity last. A Mr. J. of Pcotonville, ea'ied on Thursday at a wholesale butter merchant's in the nrighbourlmod of Matins Street, and begged to be litvourel willi a firkin of butter for his private use. After tasting several, be bought one, and requested the seller to send it home. This was done, and on Friday Mr. J. sawed the firkin in half ; but ffndiug the saw met with some obstruction, he was induced minutely to examine the cause, when, to his titter astonishment, he found the impediment arose from several - sovereigns sticking indiscriminately in the butter; of course, Le made a closer investigation, and actually picked out two hilnired and twenty of the same coin. He doubted their being genuine, but on carrying them ton bullion broker in the City, he offered him two hundred aud twenty seven pound ten shillings for them ! An ALIEN DEPORTED.—f) nPrieay welt an Alien, of the name of Suing*, wu attested. by virtue of a warrant from the Home De,.artotent. and immediately conveyed to Gravesend, tu be em barked fa the continent. Some weeks agn, during the prepartion or a marriage feast, in the pari4ll of CoHarr, in Scotland, a person contrived to iutrodoce into ti.e broth a portioa of swrie atrial laxative medicines, which was followed by consequences not probably onatainnlated by the aut!oir of this tally trick. M any perk MIS who liar took of the broth have since b.eu taken seriously ill, and one wox.An has actually died.
