" Of human ills and frailties I discourse, Those taught by nature, and by art acquir'd. Of griefs conceal'd, and disappointments keen, Which young and gentle, the matured and sage, The lonely and the mated—all sustain. In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n, How health, how hope, how happiness to gain." 3. WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID ; With Diet Tables for all Complaints. Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—wh a t eat,Avhat drink, what shun, To reach in health fhll threescoje years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they 111 of matters everyliving crea ture able to understan I ought to k w, but which information in these enlightened times, e xcep t th . qua lity promulgated through I questionable channels, is at a very t able discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in theiriseveral healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and thture race of mankind have to rely. By. such knowledge, and which is herein faithMlly imparted, health will be found to b e i n our ow n keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; b y th e availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secu re th e like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the culti va ti on of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health , the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for thi s s eeming eulogy of his own writ hags, and the avowal of their int egr ity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited q ualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legiti ma t e study and pursuit.

RAILWAY COMMITTEE S. (SATURDAY.) HOUSE'OF LORDS. Room A. CAMBRIDGE AND OXFORD. IMPORTANT DECISION. Their Lordships met, pursuant to adjournment, at half past eleven ; o'clock this morning, Lord Mornington in the chair. They immediately gave their decision that the preamble of the Bill was not proved.. • •• - 1171-4, 21c.ink, on the part of the prot . notbrlN Ituggested that the line from Hitchin to Cambridge might be passed. The Committee cleared the room, in order to consider this suggestion, and on our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN announced that the Committee had de termined to pass the 13 miles of the line from Hitchin to Royston, which they thought would give accommodation to a populous manufacturing and agricultural district, and would be something to start from in making a more complete communication through the country accommodated. Their Lordships then rose finally, it being half-past twelve o'clock. This was the only Committee sitting in the Lords to-day. HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP 11. The Select Committee appointed to consider the merits of the Bills comprised in this group re-assembled at the usual hour this morning; Lord Morpeth iu the chair. TAW VALE EXTENSION. Mr. TALBOT commenced the business of the day by ad dressing the Committee on behalf of the opponents of the Bill. The tenor of his speech may be stated in two or three words. If the Committee, he said, threw out the pre sent scheme, it would give time to the Great Western Company to mature a large and more comprehensive scheme, and one which would afford double the amount of accommodation to this district to that of the Taw Vale line. The " larger and more compre hensive scheme," it would appear, will be equal in extent to the existing Great Western line, and will consist of the revival of an extended North Devon Railway. The " larger and more comprehensive scheme " is proposed to be commenced at Taunton, on the Bristol and Exeter line, to proceed thence to Barnstaple, and to run from Barn staple by a circuitous route to Crediton. Half way between Barnstaple and Creditors an extension will strike off, and proceed direct through Oakhampton, Dartmoor, and Tavistock to Plymouth, there joining the lines running through Corn wall. This scheme is supported by the principal landowners and traders of the district, including Earl Fortescue, and the Learned Counsel contended that, as the proposed Taw Vale line, as compared with " the larger and more comprehensive North Devon scheme," would only save a distance of eight miles between Crediton and Barnstaple, it would neither be prudent nor conducive to the public interest to annihilate the Great North Devon by prematurely sanction ing the trifling Taw Vale line—the one the substance, the other only the shadow of a railway. Mr. COCKBURN was about to address the Committee in reply, but he was interrupted by The CHAIRMAN, who said he believed there would be no necessity for putting Mr. Cockburn to the trouble of making a long address, the Committee being unanimously of opinion that the preamble to the Bill for making the Taw Vale line had been proved. He accom• panied that announcement with the remark that the Com mittee had arrived at that conclusion upon the merits of the scheme as a local and independent line, and without meaning to express any opinion adverse to the North Devon project. Mr. TALBOT said, of course the line would be upon the broad gauge. The CHAIRMAN replied, that he understood it was to be so. Mr. COCKBURN said it would depend upon circumstances whether the line would be upon the broad or narrow gauge. If the traffic continued hereafter to go by the Bristol and Exeter, it would be made upon the narrow, but if the narrow gauge line by - way of • - reovil were sanctioned by the Lords, and the traffic took that direction, then the line would be upon the narrow gauge. It was ultimately arranged to leave the matter to be settled by the Board of Trade. The clauses were then agreed to, and the labours of the Committee closed. GROUP XVII. MANCHESTER AND SOUTHAMPTON. The Committee met to-day at eleven o'clock. Mr. Brunel, the engineer to the Great Western, was then called and examined by Mr. AVSTIN—He concurred in the evidence given by Mr. Locke, and considered that the line now constructing from Reading by Basingstoke, by the Great Western Railway, would afford much better communi cation with Southampton than the Manchester and South ampton. He was of opinion that there was not sufficient traffic to jtstify the construction of the proposed line. No doubt, if absolutely necessary, the narrow gauge would also be laid down from Oxford to Basingstoke, as well as on the Oxford and Rugby, thus completing narrow gauge accom modation from north to south. He agreed with Mr. Stephen son, that if a railwry communication was required between the north and Southampton, that it should be made at the least possible expense. By the CHAIRMAN—There was not sufficient traffic between Cheltenham and Southampton to pay a line of any length between these points. From Cheltenham to Swindon, from Swindon to Marlborough, and from Andover to Southamp ton, was not an available route for a railway. lie could not see why another line should be made between Swindon and Cheltenham. It was possible, in the increased demand for railway communication, that a line from Swindon, by Marlborough to Salisbury, might be constructed with ad. vantage. By Mr. Ausznir—Had heard that the Manchester and Southampton proposed the removal of the station at Swin don. The cost of this would be about 30,0001., but if they removed the engine louses also the cost would be 100,0001. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant WRANGHAM—The dis tance from Southampton to Manchester by the Manchester and Southampton was 112 miles and a quarter, and by the Rugby route 131 and a half, but he considered that the gradients by way of Rugby would compensate for this dif ference of 17 or 18 miles. Knew Mr. Locke surveyed a line from Basingstoke to Didcot, and that the country was rough in that quarter. The object of the Cheltenham and Oxford line was to shorten the distance between that line and London, but it had gradients of 1 in 63, 1 in 75, 1 in 80, and l in 100, and so on, which were worst than that in one part of the Manchester and Southampton, between Cheltenham and Swindon. If the line from Cheltenham to Swindon was a continuous one there would be some advantage in favour of it over the Cheltenham and Oxford, as it was 14 miles less, so that a person going from Cheltenham to Swindon would no doubt use that line. There would be delay in getting the carriages on the Great Western line at Swindon. hvery train stopped ten minutes at Swindon, in order to enable the passengers to obtain refreshments. All the trains were compelled to stop there in accordance with an agreement enforced by law. Was engi neer to the Cornish line rejected last year, which had gradients of lin 40. This year they were lin 60; but they were not more severe than a portion of the route which the Manchester and Southampton followed, the Licky incline, for instance, on the Bristol and Birmingham. There would be no change of management at Rugby. The CHAIRMAN—Then it comes to this, that if the public require railway accommodation, gradients are not of much consequenc% Mr. Brunel was then asked by the CHAIRMAN if he con sidered, that the line being shorter, would divert the traffic from the Great Western ?—He said he did not think it would, because the traffic from CheltenhaM to London would take the route of the Worcester and Oxford. The CumumArr—Then, will you tell me, if it will not divert the traffic of the Great Western, and will be of ad vantage to the public, why they oppose it ? Mr. Brunel gave no direct reply. The CHAIRMAN—DO they oppose it to save the share holders of this line ? Mr Brunel—No. Mr. KEATING said that was a question for the board of management / to reply to, and did not come within the pro vince of the engineer. The witness was cross•examined by Mr. KEATING at some length, without eliciting any point of importance. Lieutenant Haswell, examined by Sir T. PHILLIPS—Had been acquainted with the Southern Channel for twenty years. Preferred Plymouth to any of the southern ports, both for passengers and exports, and for those from the southern counties, because it was the western depot for troops, and possessed an excellent breakwater and harbour, which protected the ships from danger d ur i ng t h e prevalenc e of heavy gales. It was superior to the port of Southampton, the approach of which from the Needles was a source of great anxiety and danger. Cross-examined by Mr. GURNEY —Had heard that the Oriental and Peninsular Steam-packet Company intended, no matter from what point the mails left, to keep their station at Southampton. Convoys, during the time of the war, started from Southampton and Portsmouth, and put into Plymouth on their route. The Channel packets for the last twenty years had left Southampton, and generally at night. Could not say he ever heard of any accident to those boats. Capt. Robert White corroborated the evidence of the last witness. The Committee adjourned at three o'clock. GROUP 'will. The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, in Room No. 24 (Grand Corridor). Present, Sir Robert Fer guson (chairman), the Marquis of Worcester, Viscount Newry, Mr. Srnollet, and Mr. Feßowe& They resumed the consideration of the competing lines, the I.VARUTICHSHXRE AND LONDON (THREE LINES), AND THE BIRMINGHAM AND OXFORD' UNCTION.. The CriArtorAN informed the parties that the Committee had come to the determination to hear the evidence yester day tendered against the accuracy of the levels in the plans deposited for the Worcester and Weedon line. Mr. Hughes, the engineer, was then called, and being ex amined by Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, gave evidence to the effect that the levels, in the plus deposited were Bo inae- JUNE 29, 1846. PRICE SD. curate that the railway could not be constructed according to those plans. Mr. HILDYARD, for the Warwickshire and London, again raised the objection that this evidence was inadmissible. After a prolonged discussion, during which the Committee manifested considerable impatience—(if we may not say, displeasure)—they yielded to the importunity of counsel , and the room was cleared. On the re-admission of the parties, The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee having given every consideration to the objection, were unanimously of opinion that the petitioners against the Worcester and were then ca ll e d Weedon li ne s h ou ld p rocee d w ith their evidence on the en gineering d e f ec t s o f t h at li ne.

Mr. COCKBURN th en sa i d that he. wishe d to g i ve some further evidence, but was not prepared to go on w i t h it at present. Mr. AUSTIN wished to k now w h at course the Committee have,an d t g h a e v i r e evidence whole line i n c r o e r s o ü b r o v r e a: o d n ? supposed his clients must tak e w ith regard to the case now set up ? Were they to If so, they must have time. The CitninmAN said that the Committee could not dic tate to the counsel what course they should take. Mr. Cocxnuns—But that must not interfere with the coming on of our case. Mr. AugriN— Certainly not. All the landowners' cases on our side can proceed. It was accordingly agreed that Mr. Alexander should pro ceed with his case on the part of the Birmingham and War wick Canal and Lord Warwick, petitioning against the Bir mingham and Oxford Junction. The only witness called was Mr. Collins, who put in a plan of the line, representing the land of the assenting par ties in blue, and that of the dissenting parties in black colours. The black certainly predominated. He got his data from the assents and dissents put in by the promoters of the Bill, and from the signatures to the several petitions. He stated the number of miles belonging to assenting, to dissenting, and to petitioning landowners on the line, be tween certain points on theAne. It is enough to stale; that oftellace, 25 miles out of 30 mites, and in another, .18 odt of 31, belonged to petitioners. In cross-examination, be ad mitted that many dissentients and some petitioners had ceased to be opponents since the plan was made out, and that many others might have done so, although he was not aware of it. He was not aware whether in the Warwickshire and London railway there were 4 miles of assent and 30 miles of dissent. Mr. ALEXANDER then addressed the Committee, on the part of the Canal Company, the Earl of Warwick, and other landowners. The Learned Counsel laid great stress on the fact that the Birmingham and Oxford line crossed the canal in four or five places ; destroyed the canal company's wharf and two corn-mills in their possession, and passed through their reservoir. Even if the Bill were passed, he hoped clauses would be inserted to protect them, so that the rail way company would not be allowed, while entering into competition with the canal company, to deprive the latter of the power of competing with them, by destroying the reser voir by which the canal was supplied. They must, at least, be bound to leave the same depth and area of the reservoir, and to supply the loss of the wharf Mr. MELLOR then proceeded to open the case on the part of the trustees of the Independent Chapel at Birmingham and other petitioners. The Learned Counsel reserved his speech until after his evidence. Mr. Hedge, architect and surveyor, gave evidence as to the manner in which the line would injure the chapel. Ac cording to the plans it was to pass through the chapel, but it had been proposed to pass under it in a tunnel, by a devi ation. If this were done, the roof of the tunnel would be but five feet beneath the floor, and there would, therefore, be a great noise and vibration in the chapel, and when a train passed there would be a great interruption to the devo . tions of the congregation. - ,Mr. Hine was then called to prove that he had made ex periments as to the amount of noise and vibration produced ' by trains passing through tunnels. It was his opinion that the congregation would be very much disturbed. In cross examination he said, that he was an assistant at the Green wich observatory, and had made the experiments with a view to ascertain the effect that would be produced on astro nomical instruments. If the railway was carried beyond the chapel, so that no part was under the building, the noise would be lessened, but the vibration would not. Mr. Smith, the town surveyor of Birmingham, gave simi lar evidence. He had had considerable experience as to the effect of railway tunnels on buildings, and indeed had once lived in a house near which a railway passed within twenty yards, a canal intervening. The vibration produced was so great that a tumbler placed in the middle of a table found its way off when a train passed. The inconvenience was so great that he was compelled to leave the house. Mr. Hope, an engineer at Birmingham, and Mr. James, brother of the minister of the chapel and one of the trustees, gave similar evidence. Mr. COCKBURN here rose, and said that his clients did not consider that the inconvenience to the congregation would be anything like what the trustees of the chapel seemed to anticipate, but at the same time they believed the latter to be sincere in that anticipation, and they could not dispute their right to compensation in case the injury was found to be so great as they expected, lie therefore had to propose that a clause should be inserted to the effect that if the in convenience was found to be so great as was expected by the trustees, that the promoters should build another chapel on any site that might be chosen by the trustees themselves. Mr. BlEnnoa would be very happy to accept his learned friend's proposition, if he saw any chance of arbitrating it fairly. He must request time to consider the proposition. The case for the chapel trustees therefore stood over. • Mr. MELLOR then proceeded with the case on the part of Mr. Wyse, a petitioner. Mr. Birchwell, a surveyor, gave evidence as to the nature of the injury done to Mr. - Wyse's property. A proposition for arrangement was here made by Mr. COCKBURN, and this case also stood over, the Committee ex pressing a hope that the matter would be arranged before Monday. Mr. MELLOn then proceeded with the case for Sir E. Smythe, another petitioner against the Bill. Mr. Jenkins gave evidence as to the manner in which the property was affected. Mr. Howton was called to prove the nature of the injury done by the line to the property of Mr. Cresswell, a petitioner against the Bill. On the conclusion of this gentleman's evidence a discus sion arose as to the manner in which the question of the levels should be disposed of, and it was agreed that an engineer should be appointed by each party, and an umpire chosen, to re-survey the line from a point beyond the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway to Worcester, and that they should report to the Committee on Wednesday next. The Committee then rose at five o'clock, and adjourned till Tuesday next. GROUP XLVI. NEWCASTLE AND DARLINGTON JUNC TION, AND TYNE DOCX. The Committee met at half-past ten o'clock. It will be remembered that yesterday the Committee consented to pass the preamble of the Bill, upon the promoters of the Bill consenting to prepare clauses in compliance with certain resolutions of the Committee— namely, to form a canal for the exclusive use of the Yarrow Chemical Works, to provide proper drainage to carry away all the deleterious acid from the works, and also to secure them from the expenses of any damage or law-suit which might arise. The promoters required time to consider the matter, and the Committee adjourned until this day. At the meeting of the Committee to-day, the counsel for the promoters intimated that they could not consent to in troduce clauses to the effect required by the Committee. The room after some discussion was then cleared. On our re-admission, The CHAIRMAN said—The Committee have considered this matter, and it appears to them that these difficulties are rather technical than otherwise, and there also seems to be only two courses befo r e the Comm i ttee —either to negative the clauses of the Bill, or to inform the par ti e s promoting the Bill, that, as they decline to prepare specific clauses in accordance with the resolutions agreed to by the Committee, the Committee d ec line proceeding with the clauses of the Bill, and will therefore make a special report to the House. The latter course is the course the Committee will adopt. The Counsel for the promoters intimated that his clients had determined against compliabce on these points, and would stand or fall by that determination. After some further discussion the room was cleared while the special report was prepared, and the Committee then separated. SUGAR DUTIES. The rumours which have circulated during the day with respected to Lord John Russell's intentions respecting the sugar duties, have been numerous and varied. A report which gained some credence in the outports a few weeks ago, has been revived in London, to the effect that three rates of duty will be adopted :—One on colonial sugar, ono on foreign free-labour, and a third on foreign slave-labour. The rates named have been 10s., 155., and 20s. per cwt. respec tively. Now, it requires no particular knowledge of Lord John Russell's intention with respect to the sugar duties, to know that their cannot be a word of truth in this rumour. If a distinction be kept up at all on slave-labour sugar, it, can only be on the ground of excluding it from con sumption, but the moment the rate is reduced for the purpose the e ad re m v i e t n ti u n e g , i i t t t i o s consumption, and any longer dit to defend hal a different to increase t rate. Lord John Russell's principle distinctly is, that free and slave-labour sugar should be admitted on the same terms. In the meantime the market for British Plantation is somewhat duller, from the belief that foreign sugar will be more freely admitted. The second sale of Chinese suer took place yesterday, but the prices obtained were su s ga ca rc , i i so good.

To-day there was a retail demand for the best samples of fresh wheat for immediate consumption at last week's prices; for other descriptions scarcely any in quiry. Beans are held firmly for more money. Oats and shelling each the turn lower. Malt again sold better. ELECTIONEERING PROSPECTS AT WINDSOL—As soon as:the papers arrived at Windsor yesterday morning, con taining the intelligence of the defeat of Sir Robert Peel's Ad ministration, by a majority of 73 in the Commons, consider able excitement was created amongst the leading men of both parties in the town. It was intimated in the course of the afternoon, that in the event of a general election, both the present Members, Colonel Reid and Mr. Ralph Neville, intend again to offer themselves. Even at this early period the names of two or three Liberals have been mentioned as likely► to ofifig themselves. 31st FOOT.—The main body of this regiment arrived at Cawnpore on the 2d of May, from the Punjaub, on their way to Calcutta, where they will embark for England. The sergeant-major died on his arrival at Cawnpore, from the of of the woands he received in the late battles, and was buried with military honours. The 61st, stationed at Cawn pore, assisted in doing honour to his interment. 61st FOOL—lntelligence has been received of the death of Captain C. F. H. Mayne, who died at Cawnpore, at the latter end of April. He had been for a long time in a de clining state of health. The men of the 61st are in the en joyment of excellent health, the average nick in hospital not being greater than when at home. ROYAL ARTILLERY.—DEATH OF COLONEL H. Tag- LAWXY, GOVERNOR OF ST. HELENA. — lntelligence reached Woolwich, on Thursday, of the death of Colonel H. Tn..' lawny, R.A., Governor of the island of St. Helena, who ex-• pired on the 3d of May, after an illness of only a few days' duration. His remains have been interred with military honours, and the inhabitants of the island speak of his death in terms of the most affectionate regret: The deceased officer entered the Royal Artillery, as Second Lieutenant, on the 28th of April, 1796. He served with the forces in Holland in 1799, and was in the Peninsula and the south of France from November, 1813, to the end of the war in 1814, inclu ding the passage of the Adour. He was a member of the celebrated Cornish family of that name, and has left a large family, most of whom are, we believe, in England. Yesterday morning the whole of the Royal Artillery as sembled in the Riding-school to see the sentence of a garri son court martial on gunner and driver James Jeffrey carried into execution. The prisoner, who has been in the regiment 11 years, and bears but an indifferent characte r , regimental which nece ss a ri es were r and sentenced lashes , the his whole o f was tried for di to sp r o e s ee in i g ve of lso partof inflicted. Major Hope's Company was medically examined on Thursday, prior to its embarkation China to relieve Capt. or Ch. Greenwood'ss Company. RAILWAY RETURNS.

At the head of the vessel was a platform erected for the purpo se of performing the ceremony of christening, &c., on which were several officers of the army and their ladies. Shortly before the hour appointed for launching, one o'clock, the Captain-superintendent of the yard, Captain W. H. Shirreff, led the amiable daughter of Colonel J. B. Parker, of the Royal Artillery, to that part of the platform where she was to officiate, who having dashed the suspended bottle of wine against the bows of the vessel, named it the Teazer. The work of splitting out the blocks from under her keel then commenced, and the iron ballast descending, knocked away the dog-shores, and in a second she "rushed sublimely to the floating deep." She is a beautifully con structed boat, and is to be fitted with two engines of fifty horse power, with a screw propeller. She is built upon a new principle, with three thicknesses of oak plank, two di* • gonally, and one fore and aft; she is to carry one long River Gambia. 85 cwt. It is stated that she is destin e d f or the River Gambia. Her draught of water in launching is 2 feet 11 inches fore, and 3 feet 7 inches aft. The following are her dimem.ion :—Length between perpendiculars, 130 feet ; length of keel for tonnage, 118 feet 10'y s inches; breadth, extreme, 21 feet 9 1 / 2 inches ; breadth for tonnage, 21 feet 7 1 ,4 inches; breadth, moulded, 20 feet 11 3 / inches; depth in hold, 9 feet 2 inches; burthen in tons, 295 72-94. New rule, 194 tons ; engine-room, 84 ; and registered tonnage, 110. Mr. Laird, the master-builder, Mr. Laing, assistant, and other principal officers of the yard, were present; also Mrs. Shirreff and daughter, and friends. The launch was beautiful. JEWISH FREEMASONS—IMPORTANT DECISION OF THE GRAND LODGE OF ENGLAND. —The Grand Lodge ofEngland has, after a correspondence and remonstrance, conducted by the Earl of Zetland and the Grand Secretary, resolved to withdraw their representative from the Grand Lodge at Berlin, in consequence of the refusal of the Russian Lodges to admit Jews to their meetings, though such Jews have di plomas of the Grand Lodge of England. The representatives of the Grand Lodge of Berlin in this country, is to be in formed that he can no longer be acknowledgede or take his seat in the Grand Lodge of England in his official character of representative. FIRE AT THE GEORGE AND BLUE BOAR, HOLBORN. —Friday night, between ten and el yen, a fire that at one time threatened very serious consequences, broke out in the upper part of the booking-office, attached to the George and Blue Boar, Holborn. The flames commenced, from same unknown cause, in one of the top rooms, and extended from thence through the, roof. Several engines of the London Fire Establishment, with the West of England one, and two escapes of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, quickly attended. The flames having obtained such a strong hold of the building, it was found impossible to sub due the fire without the aid of an engine. The one from Holborn station was therefore instantly set to work, and by carrying the hose up the staircase the firemen were enabled to discharge the water in the right quarter, and in a short period the flames were entirely extinguished. The damage done is, considering the magnitude of the premises, not very considerable. The property, we understand, is fully insured. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—A very alarming and destruc tive fire broke out, shortly before twelve o'clock on Friday, on the premises of Messrs. Miles and Edwards, upholsterers, of Oxford-street. The rear of the house, in the main street, is flanked by extensive workshops, which run back into Red Lion-yard, a narrow turning, leading out of Vere-street. In the upper story of these workshops the fire broke out. From the inflammable nature of the contents the flames spread with surprising rapidity, and in the course of a few minutes burst through the roof, illumining the whole western dis tricts of the metropolis. The engine belonging to the parish of Marylebone was early on the spot ; but owing to the great height of the warehouses, it was utterly ineffectual in keeping down the fire, and great fears were some time enter. tained that the flames would extend to the adjoining pre mises, right and left. On the arrival of the brigade firem e n, the e at fi e r r e was was however, two or three active officers ascended to the roo fs o f the adjoining houses, and dragged up the hose of their re spectiveroef in little warehouses happilyg t extinguished b w c e more than half an hour after the outbreak. Among the spectators at the fire were a great number of the nobility, the P° u r strongest. edonenthatgi n e portionhf r u o s n it owf was hhceh who were just about taking their departure from Lady Lynd hurst's assembly, in George-street.
