NEAR TEMPLE- Bat —At about a quarter put nine o'clock yesterdayikvening, the smell of fire was perceived in Palsgrave.place, Temple-bar, and the alarm was ac cordingly given. Soon afterwards flames were observed to issue from the back-room on the first floor of a house tenanted by Mr. Harris, a taylor, No. 222, in the Strand, between Messes. Snow and Paul's, bankers, and Mr. Essex, the silversmith. The Barnes soon communicated to the frontage, where they continued to blaze with aingular beauty of appearance, though most de structive in effect, till nearly ten o'clock. Goods were seen removing in all directions. The fire engines came in succession to the spot, and played with such alacrity and e ff ect, b o th from the rear and front, that this otherwise destructive conflagration was speedily got under, so as to Tenors the apprehensions of the greater part of the neighbourhood. It was rumoured that screams of children were at first heard, and that lives were eventually lost, but we ascertained by after inquiry that the alarm was unfounded, ate that fortunately no person was musing. Harris's house (which wis stated to have Seen before on fire) war calmly burnt, and great damage was otherwise done, but the tire happened so early as to preclude the occurrence of fatal aceiderts, which might otherwise have occurred. At ten o'clock the roof of Mr. Harris's house fell in with &considerable noise, and contributed to overlay the power of the flames. Nl'ater was wanting at first, but great praise to due to the firemen, who worked with energy and suede. s. We under stand that Mr. Essex's house suffered much, and also that the flames communicated to the house occupied by Mr. Woods ; but all danger was subdued at cloven o'clock, at which hour the crowd had dispercsit. Mr. Meredith, the wealthy stable keeper. who is in the 65th year of his age, and rides 13 stone, undertook yesterday morn ing to ride four horses from Ills country reridence.

Martha Fuller sworn—l have been in the service of the deceased gentleman for theisst two years. On Tuesday I waited upon him at his dinner, it was about nine o'clock in the evening, he having been out during the day. Soon after eleven o'clock, the deceased, Mrs. Spottiswoode, and myself, with another female, all ' , enl i st!) to bed ; the deceased then appeared to be in as good health eabe had for some time past enjoyed. About three o'clock in the morn. dog my mistress rang the bell which bangs at the bed-side. I in. stoutly said to the young woman, " 0 dear ! 0 dear ! I am afraid some one has entered the house, and are murdering my master and mistress." On opening the door I heard my mistress scream out, and I then thought she was in a fit. She soon called out again and said, " Martha, c ome to me , f or your muter is dying." 1 - itimedirtely procured a light, and repaired to my mistress's bed room, on entering which I observed my muter, now deceased, ly ing with with his heed on my mistress's arm ; they were both m' bed. My mistress told m e to fetch a doctor, sad I procured the Re sistance of Mr. Christie, who ram. in about ten minutes. Pre vious to going for medical assistance, I observed my master to. breathe, but on entering the room again with the doctor, he was lying's' corpse. There was no blood about the bed, nor do I know the cause of his death. Juror.--You are not certain that your muter was alive when you lint entered the room ? iVitness.—No Sir ; I only thought I saw him breathe. Juror—Did your master eat heartily at his dinner ? Witness.—Yes, and smoked a pope afterwards, and appeared cheerful. Mr. Adolphus Christie sworn—l am a surgeon, residing at North Brixton. On Wednesday morning, about half-pest three 1 o'clock, the lost witness called upon me to attend the deceased gentleman. I went immediately, end on entering the bed-room, saw Mr. Spottlswood lying in bed. I momently examined him, but the powers of life were totally extinct ' • and it is my opinion that he died in consequence of a s u dd en effusion of blood on the brain, occasioned by appoplexy. There was no mark of violence whatever about his person. Juror—Did you attempt to bleed the deceased gentleman ? WitnessNo; on examination I found all pulsation had ceased, and during my stay I also perceived that his extremities Were rapidly getting cold ; I therefore considered it unneoesaary. 'line Jury having viewed the body at the deceased's dwelling, on their return, they unanimously pronounced their verdict—" Died by the Visitation of God." AFFLICTING SUICIDE OF A YOUNG LADY. CORONER'S INQUEST. On Thursday night a Coroner's Inquisition was held at the Artillery Arms Tavern, Vauxhall-road. before Mr. limos, the Deputy Coroner for Westminster, and a respectable Jury, to in quire into the death of llfi.s Elizabeth Georgians Burt, a young lady just turned sixteen years of age, daughter of Mr. Henry Burt, of the house of Wood and Co. the brewers, in the Horseferry road. The Jury, afar taking a view of the body, returned to the Tavern, when the following evidence touching the lamentable affair was brought forward:— Mary Gale stated that she was a servant to Mr. Baker, the pro prietor of this tavern, and knew the deceased young lady, who re sided with her father and mother in Willow -street, Vauxhall-road. On Tuesday evening she met her, and the deceased said she was very ill. and that some person had told her that James Gant, a youth with whom she kept company, had been seen walking on the Sunday previous with another young lady who resided in the neighbourhood. IVitness laughed at her, and told her not to mind It. She seemed terribly affected, and shed tears. tVitness saw no more of her until about ten o'clock the next morning, wben she (witness) was in her master's yard washing dishes, and the deceased spoke to her over the wall that separates the yard of the house of her parents from that of witness's master. She was crying bitterly, and on witness asking what was the matter with her, she said she was very ill, and requested her to go and fetch Mrs. Thatcher, a neighbour. Witness observed she looked very dejected and pale, and repeated the interrogation—WhlCl the matter? The deceased then said she had just taken half on ounce of arsenic, avid that she had purchased it at the shop of Mr. Kendrick, an oilman opposite. Witness was not aware that arsenic was of a poisonous nature, and asked her it she thought it would kill her ? and sbe said. " Oh yes, I am dying I-1 am dying !—Oo and fetch Mrs. Thatcher." NA'it ness was terribly alarmed at what site had heard, and went to Mrs. T.. .eho proceeded to the house of the deceased Juror—Did at :deceased state. whether she had been cautioned by Mr. Kendrick as to using the arsenic? Winn es—She said that she told Mr. Kendrick, when she bought the pakiMr that it was .0 destroy rats; and he (llr. Kendriik) had told her to be very careful of it, as it was rank poison, and that the least bit would destroy any person. Coroner—Did the deceased, when you saw het last,-seem to be , in her senses ? _ Witness—She cried bitterly, and seemed to be quite thought:cse of the danger 'the was in, and appeared melancholy. Mrs. Thatcher, who resides next door to Mr. Burt, stated that when the last witness told her that Miss Burt wanted her, she went immediately to the house, arid in the parlour she saw the deceased sitting on the sofa, weeping very much ; she seemed to be dying. On her speaking to her, she said she had taken poison, and that ' her father and mother were from home. Witness saw on the table a tea-cup which had contained the draught. The deceased said that she bought the arsenic at Kendrick's, had mixed It in the tea cup, and bad 'swallowed it all. Witness instantly ran for Mr. Painter, the surgeon, In the Horseferry-road, who came instantly, and used every means in his power to prolong life, but she died after the most bitter agonies, about haltpast seven in the everjng. Mr. Painter, the surgeon, said that when he saw the deceased she was quite sensible, and told him what quantity of the poison she had taken. lie ettendecl her for nine hours, during which time he administered emetics, in which were upwards of forty eggs, and other remedied, to counteract the effects of the poison, but without effect. She lingered in the most excruciating agony till eight o'clock in the evening, when she expired. Ile had opened the body, and found that the coats of the stomach were completely destroyed • that five minutes after she had taken the draught there was not th e least prospect of her recovery, the internal injury being so great, from the quantity she had taken. Mr. Henry Burt, }he father of the deceased, was called in ; lie I was deeply affected, and shed tears. He stated that he had of late observed a great alteration in his daughter's behaviour, and from circumstances that since her death had occurred to him, he had no hesitation latticing she laboured under an aberration of intellect. He knew nothing of any intercourse between her and young Gant, I nor had'he seen any letters. Mr. Kendrick, oilman, in the Vauxhall-mad, stated, that about 10 o'clock, on Wednesday morning, Miss Burt came into his shop, and asked for half an ounce of arsenic ; he asked her for what pur pose she wanted it ? She said that their cellar was overrun with rats, and that she was going to spread it on some bread and butter to destroy them. Witness served her, anti she, looking at the quantity, said, Why, Mr. Kendrick, here's not enough to de stroy one rat," Witness told her that there was enough to poison fifty such rats as her and he ; had he suspected for what purpose she wanted it, of course, be would not have served her at all, nor would he, had she been estranger. One of the Jury thought Mr. Kendrick had acted highly intim. per to ll such a dangerous drug to an inexperienced person. Mr. Kendrick said, he did not usually mil it : he hept it for the purpose of:introducing it into green paint. Me had taken every pains to caution her, and told her to throw what she did not use down the privy. The Jury consulted a short time, and then returned a verdict— " That this decrawsl poisoned herself in a state of temporary insanity." An Inquest was held 'yesterday at the Star, Spitalfields. on view of the body of Elizabeth Bonner, who was supposed to have come to her death by apoplexy. Frances Kelly, an inmate of the 1 Star, which adjoins the house in which the deceased used to reside, deposed, that on Monday last. between the hours of twelve and ot:e at noon, she heard a noise something resembling a groan, and finding that it proceeded from the mom occupied by the deceased, she at first coneidered that she might be intoxicated, to which pro pensity she was greatly addicted, and therefore took no notice of it. The noise, however, having been repeated several times, she gave the alarm, and in company with the landlord forced open Owl door, and found the deceased quite dead, lying stretched on the fluor. Surgical aid was immediately sent for. but life was quite extinct. The deceased was nearly sixty years of age. The sur. geon's opinion. which was that she died in a fit or apoplexy, was tally confirmed by the circumstances attending her death. and the conduct she had for some time past pursued. and the Jury without hesitation returned a verdict of tt Accidental Death." A melancholy accident befel Mr. Remington Hoare, of Hornsey, well known as a frequenter of the turf, on his way from Doncaster, after the gold cup had been run for on Wetinteday. He was travelling home by way ((Nottingham, with a Me. Evans, in a gig, when the home shyed. and ran the vehicle off the road down a precipice of four or five feet. clan upon Iyealtam ; and 111 r.

[From the Leel ir lortelligencer.l By wav of introduction to the letter of our Correspondent at Bradford, which will be found below, we have a most important fact to communicate, as regards the existing " tunt-out" of the Cumbers and Weavers. This week the principal-master spinners of Leeds have resolved to reduce the yaps paid for combing. The cause of this proceeding is shitpfy that they cannot find a market for the yarn on hand, the prices of which are daily declining. At, Nor wich, and other places, the manufacturers are glutsed; and, in consequen c e, th e worsted spinners of Lancashire, as well as this county, are not only compelled to lower ststOntwu of the workmen, but apprehend they shall be', oblig4 to throw many out of employment. The reduc tion new proposed in Leeds is on the coarser sorts of wool, from Silt to 24d. per lb. and on others in proportion. It is not supposed the men will " strike" rather than come $0 lama imposed on the masters as well so thymielves by ne cessity. The reduction is to take place from Saturday next ; and whet' announced in a mill not f ar f rom thi s town last week, the men did not subscribe, as usual, to the Bradford " Union." Meantime the combing of wool, half by machine?) , and half by hand, iemaking rapid progress, and threatens to place the operatives soon in a still worse state than they are at present. How foolish awl futile the attempt to force up wages under-such eircumsilsees as we have now mentioned:— Bourdiratu), Surr.ll, 11324. The rapiers, Mr. Thompson in the Chair, lead a meet ing on Monday last, at the (hurt-house, Da -strut, at which reolutions were passed, one e 4 ' wkier after stating that having learnt that " prsond‘Wence bad beets offered to several workmen for vetthdrawing from Rile Union, an outrage which the associated masters very ;ta mely regret," says, " that the associated masters wilt sustain the expense of proper legal proceeding to be promptly adopted against auy other persons who may offend in a similar way, particularly as it has been confidently re. ported to the meeting, that many of the workmen would return to their employment immediately, were it not that they are intimidated by the threats with which they have been assailed." The men had their usual weekly meeting on Monday, at Fairweather-green, but passed no resolutions. The junction of the masters of other places with those here, does not appear to have effected any alteration in the mea sures of the men. Support from other trades increases in proportion to the exigencies of the Union, and though about 1000 additional members have- beat • thrown nut of employment, and have made application for the Union allowance, the supply augments with the demand. The following announcement was posted in this streets of Halifax yesterday morning : "'l'o Wool-combers Silk and Stuff-weavers.—A meet ing will be holden on iVednesday, the Vet day of Septem ber, 1845, at three o'clock in the efteraeon, on Barstow- Hill, Bank Top, near Halifax, to talee into consideration what means are most proper to adopt to counteract the tr.is chievous consequences likely to arise from the extensive combination existing amongst the manufacturers connected with the worsted trade. . " JAMES GREENtIPOOD, PteSiclt:lt." FATAL. ACCIDENT.—A dreadful accident occurred at Seaton on Friday. As a number of young men were en joying themselves in a boat, shooting the sea birds, one of , the party (Mr. Mackie, clerk with Messrs. Backliouse, of Yolk) raised his head in the boat at the moment when one of his companions was presenting his gun to tire, as he in tended, over his head. Mr. Mackie, however, by thus ris ing unexpectedly, received the contents, and, dreadful to relate, was killed on the spot.—Leeds I ntelligenecr. Ex IRAMIDIN•IIV SIIICIDE.—A few days since, SS the village of Box, in Wiltshire, an excioeman named Martin shot himself at the instigation of his wife, who waited upon him in bed whilst he did it, with the waah e hand Wein to cat.* the blood. The poor *bow eras woad at the time, and could not recollect the fact, further than that IL: bought the powder, and loaded the pistol with a stone. His wife, in a very cool and deliberate manner, opened the window to let out the smoke, and then shut it, saying thet he might not catch cold before she called in the neighbours. In the course of the evening, being very drunk and zioisy in the house, because Mr. Washborn, the surgeon, would not let her go up and irritate the dying man, she three:- ened to split his skull with the candlestick. She was taken before a magistrate the follolving morning, by the Rev. Mr. Mullens (Surrogate at Box), and upon her promising to conduct herself better in future, Mr. Washborn did not press the affair against her; but her promises were soon forgotten, for when her deceased husband'` mother see: persons to convey his corpse to Tewkesbury for interment, she would not let it go out of the house until they had given her a pound note.—Derset Chronick. POISONED CHEESE.—A professional gentleman in Leeds, of the first respectabilit, sent us yesterday morning, fer jpspection, a portion of , what may be literally termed poi soned cheese. Of all sorts of food we had thought this one not only free from hut repugnant to adulteration. The sample now before us shows to what an extent and perfec tion the science and art of contaminating the necessaries of life has been carried. Many persons, it is well known, fancy and prefer " old cheese, and the artificial mode employed to provide this favourite article is exemplified in the portion we have been shown, which iu no respect differs from the rest of-the cheese. It has inserted into is a number of common brass pins, and in consequence of the inherent moisture acting on them is as mouldy, inky, and and green, as the most exquisite epicure could desire. Some parts of it indeed are so " high' that they resemble what is commonly called blue stone. 'fhesc delicious ap pearances are produced, however, by acetate of copper, and the digestive advantages of having eatenemch cheese after dinner would be a violent sickness of the stomach, and the other results of having swallowed a deleterious substaac' We account for the discovery of' the process by suppoyip ; that the wholesale merchant, who resorted to this ettetheel of expediting " age," forgot to remove the means.—Lee de Intelkences. DESTRUCTION or CATtIITILL•IO.—A correspondent at Salford, Lancashire, who signs " chyinist, late of Louth, Lincolnshire," supplies us with..tbe following re cipe in answer to the inquiry in our paper a cortnight To destroy caterpillars, take one pound of shag tobecco, boil it in twelve pints of water until reduced ' to six pitife, Alter, and met with the liquid two litiinces of alum, teed one dr. of powdered capsicum.
