Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwi se wou ld have h a d t o pass t h e . nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitoue]y ovary weei.e. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they aro homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, antsleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

No connection with any of the same name. shivering men in the rigging, and a yell of indig nation, mingled with not a few imprecations, from the crowd on the cliffs, the steamer proceeded on her course. Within a few minutes of this cruel deser tion, a giant wave lifted the shattered hull of the Hannah More on its foaming crest, and dashed it with tremendous force against a de tached pyramid of granite, known as Rat Island. A loud crash was heard above the roar of the waves, the sides of the noble ship were seen to vibrate and collapse, and in twenty minutes little remained of her but a thousand fragments, fast drifting to the westward. Another effort was then made to save the crew. The same brave men who had gone out previously again manned their tiny punt, and by a stupendous effort were successful in bringing off five men, who were landed on the beach, and pulled up the cliffs by ropes. Before the little boat could be again got afloat the ship had broken up, and the remainder of the hapless crew were to be seen clinging to the floating spars, and being carried by the tremendous eddy running round Rat Island away to westward, where some of them were watched for hours drifting to and fro in the currents. One poor fellow IN as seen hanging to a spar, which was caught by a huge breaker and dashed against the granite pyramid ; he rose no more. A stalwart and brave man, Nolliscott by name, was observed to make a desperate effort to swim ashore. He reached land, but could obtain no footing on the perpendicular rocks. 'Turning his back on the treacherous rocks he swam to the wreck, seized a spar, and a second time made for shore, but was beaten back. When on the verge of exhaus tion the drowning man managed to get close under a lofty and precipitous rock, when an islander, named Isgar, threw him a rope, which was clutched with the grasp of death, fastened round the man's waist, and he, amid lusty cheers, was pulled up the rocks. One of his feet was terribly lacerated in the struggle ; thus six out of the crew of the ill-fated ship were saved. The body of one of the 19 unfortunate men, named George Greigg, of London, was picked up and buried." In Jeopardy. (Front Dickens's " All the Year Round.") I'm a bricklayer, I am ; and, what's more, down in the country, where people ain't so particular about keeping trades distinct as they are in great towns. This may be seen any day in a general shop, where, as one might say, you can get anything, from half a quartern of butter up to a horn lantern ; and down again to a hundred of short-cut brads—well, down in the country .I'vc done a bit of a job now and then as a mason ; and not so badly neither, I should suppose, for I got pretty well paid considering„ and didn't hear more than the usual amount of growlin arter it was done--which is saying a deal. Ours ain't the most agreeable of lives, and if it warn't for recollecting a little about the dignity of labour, and such-like, one would often grumble more than one does. Some time ago, it don't matter to you, nor me, nor yet anybody else, just when it was, work was precious slack down our way—all things considered, I ain't a-going to toll you where our way is. A day's work a week had been all I'd been able to get for quite two months ; so Mary, that's my wife, used to pinch and screw, and screw and pinch, and keep on squeezing shilling arter shilling out of the long stocking, till at last it got so light, that one morning she lets it fall upon the table, where, instead of coming down with a good hearty spang, it fell softly and jest like a piece of cotton that was empty. And then, poor lass, she hangs on to my neck, and burst out a'crying that pitiful, that I'm blest if I didn't want my nose blowing about every quarter of a minute. I hadn't minded the screwing and pinching; not a bit of it. First week we went without our puddings. Well, that wasn't much. Second week we stopped my half-pints o' beer. Third week I put my pipe out. Mary kep' on saying that things niust look up soon, and then I should have an ounce of the best to make up for it. But things didn't look up; and, in spite of all the screwing, we got down to the bottom of the stocking, as I said jest now. I hadn't much cared for the pinching, but it was my poor lass as got pinched the most, and she was a-getting paler and thinner every day, till I couldn't bear to see it. I run out o' the house, and down to Jenkins's yard, where I'd been at-work last. I soon found Jenkins ; and I says to him, " Governor," I says, •' this won't do, you know; a man can't line upon wind." " True for you, Bill Stock," he says. " And a man can't keep his wife upon wind," I says. "Eight you are, Bill," ho says ; and he went on end spoke as fair as a man could speak; end said he hadn't a job ho could put me on, or he would have done it in a minute. " I'm worry sorry, Bill," he says, " but if times don't mend, I tell you what I'm a-going to do." " What's that ?" I says. " Go up to London," he says ; " and if I was a young man like you, I wouldn't stop starving down here, when they're giving first-class wages up there, and when there's building going on all round, as thick as thick, and good big jobs too ; hotels, and railways, and bridges, and all sorts." I faces round sharp, and walks off home ; for when a feller's hungry and close up, it lays hold on his temper as well as his stummick, more especially when there's some body belonging to him in the same fix. So I walks off home, where I finds Mary a-looking werry red-eyed ; and I makes no more ado but I gets my pipe, and empties the bit o' dust there was in the bottom o' the jar into it, lights up, and sits down aside of Mary, and puts my arm round her, jest as I used in old courting times ; and then begins smoking an' thinking. Worry slow as to the fust, and werry fast as to the second ; as smoking costs money, and the dust was dry; whereas thinking came cheap jest then—and it's sur-prising how yer can think on a empty inside. I suppose it is because there's plenty o' room for the thoughts to work in. well, I hadn't been settin' above a minute like this, when my lass lays her head on my shoulder, and though she wouldn't let me see it, I knowed she was a-giving way ; but I didn't take no notice. Perhaps I held her a little bit tighter ; and there I sat thinking and watching the thin smoke, till I could see buhdings, and scaffolds, and heaps o' bricks, and blocks o' stone, and could almost hear the ring of the trowels, and the "sar-jar" o' the big stone saws, and there was the men a-running up and down the ladders, and the gangers a-giving their orders, and all seemed so plain, that I began to grow warm. And I keeps on smoking till it seemed as though I was ono of a great crowd o' men standing round a little square wooden office place, and being called in one at a time ; and there I could see them a-takin' their six-and-thirty shillings and two pounds apiece, as fast as a clerk could book it. And then all at once it seemed to fade away like a fog in the sun ; and I kep' on drawing, but nothing come, and I found as my pipe was out, and there was nothing left to light agen. So I knocks the ashes out—what there was on 'em—and then I breaks the pipe up, bit by bit, and puts all the pieces in my pocket—right-band trousers-pocket. " What for ?" says you. Nothin' at all, as I launcs on ; but that's what I did ; and I ain a-telling you what happened. Perhaps it was because I felt uncomfortable with nothing to rattle in my pocket. Howsomaver, my mind was made up; and brightening up, and looking as cheerful as if I'd six-and-thirty shil lings to take on Saturday, I says to her as was by my side : " Polly, my lass, I'am a-going up to Loudon !" " Going where ?" she says, lifting up her head. " London," I says ; and then I began to think about what going to London meant. For, mind yer, it didn't mean a chap in a rough jacket making up a bundle in a clean blue handkercher, and then shovin' his stick through the knot and then sticking it over his shoulder, and then stuffing his hands in his pockets, and taking the road up wards, whistlin' like a blackbird. No :• it meant something else. It meant breaking up a tidy little home as two young folks—common people, in courso—had:been a sav ing up for years, to make snug; it meant half breaking a poor simple lass's heart to part with this little thing and that little thing ; tearing up the nest that took so long a-building, and was allus so snug arter a cold day's work. I looked at the clean little winders, and then at the bright kettle on the shiny black hob, and then at the worry small fire as there was, and then fust at one thing, and then at another, all so clean and neat and homely, and all show ing how proud my lass was of 'em all, and then I thought a little more of what going up to London really did mean, and I suppose it must have been through feeling low and faint and poorly, and I'm almost ashamed to tell it, for I'm such a big strong chap ; but truth's truth. Well, somehow a blind seemed to come over my eyes, and my head went down upon my knees, and I cried like a schoolboy. But it went off, for my lass was kneeling aside me in a minute, and got my thick old head upon her shoulder, and began a-doing all she could to make believe it was all right, and she would'nt mind a bit, but we'd get on wonderfully well up there ; and so we talked it over for long enough, while she made be lieve to be so cheerful, and knelt at my side, a-ciphering away—a-putting down nought for herself, and a-carrying I don't know how much for me—till I glowed up, under the discovery that whether work was plenty, or whether work was slack, I, Bill Stock—christened William —was rich in my good wife. There was something like a thought, that was, and PRICE.... 4d. fsTAMPED sd . seomod to stiffen me up, and put bone and muscle into a fellow till ho felt bold as a lion ; so we set to talking over the arrangements ; and two clays arter, Polly and I was in a lodging in London. Nox' morning I was up at 5, and made myself smart ; tot fine, but clean, and looking as if Iwarn't afraid of work; and I finds my way to one of the big workshops, where the bell was a-ringing for six o'clock, and the men was a calling in; while a chap with a book was on the look out to time the late ones, for stopping on pay-day out of their wages—which is but fair, yer know, for if two hundred men lost a quarter of an hour apiece in a week, it would come to something stiff in a year. Well, there was a couple more chaps like me standing at the gate, come to see if they could get• took on, and one of 'em slips in, and comes out again directly a-swearing and growling like anything, and then t'other goes in, and he comes out a swearing too, and then I feels my heart go sinking down ever so low. So I says to the "Any chance of a job?" I "Go somewhere, he bay s, cutti so I asks t'other one. ;kr, rough ; • "Any chance of a job ?" I says. "Not a ha'porth," he says, turning his back, and going off with the lust one; and I must say as they looked a pretty pair of blacks. So I stood there for quite five minutes wondering what to do ; whether I should go in and ask for myself, or go and try somewheres else. I didn't like to try, after seeing two men refused. All at once a tall sharp-eyed man comes out of a sido place and looks at me quite fierce. " Now, my man," he says, " what's' your business ? What do you want ?" " Job, sir," says I. " Then why didn't you coma In and ask ?" he says. " Saw two turned back," .1 says. `L Oh ! ,ro don't want such as them hero," he says, " but there's plenty of work fOr men who mean it ;" and then he looks through me a'most. "I suppose you do mean it, eh ?" " Give us hold of a trowel," says I, spitting on both hands. " Bricklayer?" says he, smiling. " Right," says I. " From the country ?" says he. " Yes," says I. " Work slack there ?" says he. " Awful," says I. " You'll do," says he. " Here, Jones, put this fellow in number four lot." If you'll believe me, I could have taken hold of him and hug ged him : but I didn't, for I kep' it for Polly. Well—l wonder how many times I've said well since I be gun !—I was in work now, and I meant to keep it. Didn't I make the bricks and mortar fly ! My hodman did his day's work that day, if he never did it afore. Then some of the men began to take it up, and got to chaffing ; one says there'd soon be no work left; and another says, I'd better have a couple o' Paddies to keep me going, one for bricks, and another for mortar; while one fellow makes hisself precious unpleasant, by keeping on going "puff! puff ! puff !" like a steam-ingin', because I worked so fast. But I let them chaff as long as they liked ; and bime-bv I comes to be working alongside of my steam-ingin' friend, and jest as he'd been going it a little ext►a, I says to him quietly— "Ever been out o' work, matey ?" "Not to signify," he says. "'Cause if ever you are, and come down worry close to ground, you'll be as glad to handle the trowel again as I am." Ho didn't puff any more that day, not as I heerd. The Italian Budget. FLORENCE, Jan. 22. At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies this day, the Finance Minister made his Statement. Signor Scialoja said the expectations of his prede cessor had been realized. The interest upon the public debt for the past half-year had been duly paid, and there remained in the Treasury sufficient funds to meet the present wants of the Administra tion. Upon taking account of all the resources at the disposal of the Treasury on balances and realizable credits, it was certain that these resources would suffice to meet all the expenditure of 1866, including the next half-year's interest upon the public debt, without the necessity of having recourse to extraordinary means. That declaration would suffice to put an end to the rumours as to pretended intentions of the Government, and the necessity for a new loan. The deficiency anticipated for 1866 would be 265 or 265 millions. It would be asked how did the Government propose' ; 'to supply that de ficiency ? It was time to renom& operations which were dazzling, but ruinous, and which only result in contracts f9r sales and loans. There were but two modes on which an equilibrium in the Budget could be effected—the diminution of expenditure and the increase of receipts. r First, what saving was it pos sible to effect? Of the 938 millions of the Budget 443 millions represented the amount required for the payment of the interest upon the public debt, and for other engagements guaranteed by the public faith. It would be impossible to break public faith. The nation which should be wanting in the fulfil ment of its engagements merited to be placed under a ban by all civilised people. The 17 millions which figured in the Budget on account of pensions would be reduced gradually by the natural diminution in the numbers of the pensioners. The 21 millions for pri sons might in time be somewhat reduced, but it was not an item easy of diminution at present. 59 mil lions are devoted to the purchase of raw materials, which are needed for State monopolies, and which afterwards became sources of revenue. That amount could not be reduced; on the contrary, it would be desirable to increase it. There remained 396 millions on which reductions may be effected. Of these 396 millions, no less than 230 millions were applied 'to the military and naval services. The remaining 166 millions represent the expenses of all the other branches of the public service. Since the consti tution of the Kingdom of Italy economies to the extent of 150 millions ,had been effected, but, on the other hand, the Budget had been augmented by new expenses, by obligations for railways, and other expenses, which make up a total of 139 millions. That was the true reason why the country bad not yet been able to derive the benefit of the consider able, savings that had b een e ff ecte d . I t was n eces- I nary, then, to consider what other savings were pos sible. The Cabinet, keeping in sight the political and financial situation of the kingdom, and the necessity that the country should be strong and well provided with the means of defence, still be lieved that upon the expenditure for the army and the navy a reduction of 30 millions might be ob tained. Upon the administration of the lotteries a saving of 230,000 f. could be effected. Upon the service of the Treasury, if the Chamber should ap prove the transfer to the Bank, an economy of two millions might Le looked for, and an additional 2i millions would be gained by the application of new laws of administration. By a reform of the judiciary organisation a saving of four milli ons might be expected. The Minister of the Interior koped to effect a reduction in his Budget to the extent of 2k millions, and a law for the abolition of sub-prefectures would be proposed. The Minister of Public Works would propose to effect economies amounting in the whole to four millions. A plan for the reorganisation of the department o f c i v i l en gineering would produce a saving of 300,000 f., and alterations in the regulations affecting the Post office and the telegraphs would result in a saving of 500,000 f. All these savings added to those which would be proposed by the Minister of Public In struction of millions) and by the Minister of Agri culture and Commerce would amount to nearly 54i millions. That amount, deducted the deficit of 265 or 266 millions, left still a deficiency of 2111 mil lions. rt then became necessary to consider what permanent steps could be taken to meet that deficit. Persisting in a resolution not to resort to extraor dinary measures, but to rely solely upon stable and permanent resources, he was called upon to point out by what means he proposed to augment the re ceipts. The Ministers had been of opinion that, be fore resorting to new taxes, they ought to review the existing imposts, and consider whether it was pos sible to obtain from them larger results. The three great Aaxes were the land-tax, the tax upon movable property, and the registration tax. With respect to the tax upon movable property. a new assessment might be made. The land-tax should be consoli dated in' such a way as to allow of distinct taxes leviable upon the revenue and upon the property, a change that would be of equal advantage to agricul- 1 SCIENTIFIC AND ORNAMENTAL PRESENTS.

Strand. z -* * :.atkzA* Tte Wreck of the Hannah More. The Western Morning News supplies the follow ing particulars respecting the wreck of the ship Hannah More, at Lundy Island :—" The Hannah More was a fine clipper -built ship of 1,179 tons register, belonging to Messrs. Baines, of Liverpool, and at the time of her loss A 1 at Lloyd's. Her crew consisted of 25 hands, all told, one of whom, a man named Daniel Mills, was working his passage home. She was laden with guano, and had made a good and quick passage from the Chincha Islands until Monday, the Bth, when, at the entrance of the Bristol Channel, she encountered stormy weather, and her captain ran her under the lee of Lundy Island, and anchored in the roads. The boisterous winds continued, and on Wednesday night began that terrible gale which strewed the western coasts of England with so many wrecks. Early on Thurs day morning the wind chopped round to every quarter and with hurricane force ; the Hannah More was exposed to its fury. It was at first thought advisable to slip anchors and run to sea, but as on the first attempt to set sail the canvas was blown to fragments this was seen to be impossible, and dis may was caused by finding that the ship was drag ging.her anchors and drifting towards the granite sides of Lundy. The cable of one anchor now parted, and the ship swung round, exposing her broadside to the fury of the heavy cross sea. Almost instantly her decks were swept clean of every article not firmly fixed, and even a portion of her bulwarks was torn away, her boats and topmast also going by the board. While thus holding on with one anchor, in fearful suspense, came the first gleam of morning, and the inhabitants of the island crowded to the cliffs. The crew were seen clinging to the rigging. An ordinary punt, a mere cockle shell, was carried to the beach, and two brave men —Samuel Jarman and Thomas Saunders—got into her. But the raging sea was too much for them, and presently, in spite of their utmost efforts, the little craft was beaten back through the long line of foam upon the shore. Again was an attempt made to reach the ship, but the boat was again forced back. The effort was then seen to be hope less, and the men on board the Hannah More were given up for lost. And then occurred an incident which made the blood of the spectators boil with in dignation. A screw steamer hove in sight and came near the shore. A signal of distress was waved from the shore, and was answered by the gesticulations of a crew of men hanging over the steamer's bulwarks. She slackened speed, hove to, remained awhile under the lee of the island, but made no effort to rescue the perishing. Presently steam was again put on, the bow was turned up channel, and, amid a groan of despair from the 25 z.‘vi.ef, f ,. ture and to the Treasury. The augmentation frait#,l-414-' that source joined with the produce of the tax ripQn•LE buildings would add about 125 millions annually to the revenue. A reform of that nature in the taxation of landed property upon revenues from land, and upon buildings, would enable the Government to withdraw the plan presented by their predecessors for levying taxes upon doors and windows. The sums thus pro duced would not be sufficient to effect the desired equilibrium in the Budget, and therefore it became necessary to deal with the indirect taxes. Among thtse-taxes that which science and experience had proved to be most equitable and most advantageous was the tax upon production. During the preva lence of the oidieuz Italy produced annually 20 million hectolitres of wine, but before the appear ance of the grape disease the production was double that amount. Taking a medium quantity-30 million hectolitres----as a basis of calculation, and - a tax fixed at If. 50c. per hectolitre, the produce to the Treasury would be nearly 45 millions. The next point to be referred to was, said Signor Scialoja, the most disagreeable portion of the Statement. His predecessor had proposed a tax upon the grind ing of corn. He himself shared in the dislike with which many deputies regarded that tax, but he thought its unpopularity depended in a great mea sure upon the manner in which it vas levied. For the present the Ministry would leave the subject of a grinding tax open for discussion, and possibly some practical result might in the end be arrived at. In the:MeZt - ntime the Government must ask the Cham ber to . conscult T'. - posing the Government duties upon oil, corn, and Tf the Chamber should grant the demand the x.c.icji I.N - ) an addition of 30 millions to the revenue. up all the figures which he had previously giv;. f , eneral result would be as follows :—The total • %\ as represented by a sum of 265 or 268 millv,;ts. I , Aa the 541 of savings ; or, in other words, there a deficit of 211 millions, to which must be added '66 millions from a tax upon movable property, which must be considered as never having existed before, and which must be incorporated with the new tax upon revenue and with the tax upon build ings. There was thus a sum of 277 millions to be covered. To meet that sum an amount of 115 or 120 millions might be expected from the tax upon incomes, 20 millions from the increase in the registration and stamp duties, 45 millions from the tax upon the production of wine, and 30 or 35 mil lions from the Government tolls upon oil and flour. Those sums together would amount to 210 millions, from which must be deducted about 10 millions which would be lost by the operation of consoli dating the tax upon landed property, and by the diminution in the produce of tolls upon certain ar ticles of production. There would then still remain a balance of 80 millions to be provided for. As to the means of meeting that deficiency, he believed this would te found in the continual development of the national wealth, in the consolidation of the national credit, and in the rapidity of the national progress. When they had succeeded in bringing the Budget to an equilibrium the destinies of Ital y would be certain and secure.

The Streets Committee brought up a report which had been sumbitted to their engineer, stating that the damage done to the subway in SoUthwark-street had been made good. Mr. COLLINSON did not agree to the report of the engineer, for it was impossible for the contractor to make good the damage the water company had done to the subway. It was a Fact that the company, although they had ref tised to use the subway, be cause they said it would be dangerous to their pipes, had sunk them six inches below the crown of the side entrance of their subway, and had thereby tres passed upon the Board's territory, and, in fact, adopted all the danger to which they referred when they refused to make use of the pubwle j t (in order to preserve the street), while thcry put the public to the inconvenience of having the roadway broken up, and themselves to the unnecessary expense of doing so. Mr. NEw TON moved that the report be referred back to the committee. Mr. CoLuNsoN seconded the motion, and it was agreed to unanimously. UTILISATION OF THE SOUTHERN SEWAGE. On the motion of Mr.! EvANs, this question, which was appointed to come on at one o'clock, was adjourned for a fortnight. METROPOLITAN RAILWAY BILLS BEFORE PARLIAMENT. Mr. SMITH, the solicitor to the board, reported that the following bills had not complied with the standing orders, and were therefore considered as dead :—Barnet, Hendon, Hampstead, and London Railway—Bricklayers' Arms and Elephant and Castle Railway Clapham and London-bridge Railway—House of Parliament Approaches—Kil burn Railway Metropolitan Railway (Station Collecting Line) No. I—Midland and Great Wes tern Junction Railway—North Surrey Railway-- Waterloo and Whitehall Railway (Extension to Newington-butts). Some routine business was disposed of, and the board adjourned. COOLIES IN THE SOUTH.--In Louisiana an effort e n i i g A r r o o s d s i u n e ge Cooliestheattention as y planters tish ebesinugbjieuicnatdiest o Georgia and Alabama. The proposal to bring labor from India and China is too absurd to be entertained. The Coolie trade has been a curse and a stain on the civilisation of the nine teenth century, and it is not at all probable that the United States Government would ever allow any State to traffic in these poor creatures. Slavery was bad enough, and they have got rid of the pest. To introduce Coolies wonld be to revive slavery in another form. The idea is repugnant to every principle of humanity and Christianity, and its effect would be to retard the progress of both, and check the advancement of the Southern States. Such foolish schemes do not aid the South ern people, or tend to their prosperity. They arc now in pressing want of labor, and they have it at their doom without seeking to traverse thousands of miles of ocean and drag an inferior quality from the " jungles of llindoostan and the tea-gardens of China." THE AMERICAN FENIANS.—The New York cor respondent of the Times seams to attach consider able importance to the Fenian movement. He says I am informed upon authority which I believe to be perfectly trustworthy that the leaders of the Fenian have plans of the citadel of Quebec in their posses s i on , an d soundings of all the Canadian rivers, and that an attempt is fully planned against one of the cities. In point of fact Americans begin to be anxious about the probable conse quences of this colossal conspiracy. There are now 700 "circles" of Fenians in the United States and over 380,000 members. The monthly receipts from subscriptions are $200,000, and O'Mahony is mid to have several millions accumulated in the banks. Money comes from Australia, and nearly all parts of the world where Irishmen are found. These are facts which you may consider as being beyond dispute. Tho brotherhood has established a sys tem of espionage over every "doubtful character," and your correspondent, when in New York, has the advantage of being constantly dogged by watchful Fenians, who contrive to get copies of his visitors' cards, and other wise make themselveS'agreeable." ANOTHER YNCENDIARY FIRE IN HERTS.—We are sorry again so speedily to have to record another fire supposed to be the work of au incendiary, which was discovered between eight and nine on Wednesday night at Mr. Marson's farm, Maple Cross, West Hyde, llickmans worth, and so frequently occurring in this district, is really now becoming quite serious and alarming to the tants, this making the third fire occurring since Tuesday morning in this week. The fire was first discovered in on o of the farm outhouses, in which a quantity of haulm. was stored, and which was burnt down. It was feared that some of the horses would have perished in the conflagra tion, but fortunately all were saved. The parish engine was the first to arrive, then Lord Ebury's from Moor Park, but the fire was well got under before the arrival of the latter engine, and before 12 p.m. the fire was completely extinguished.
