ALARMING FlRE.—Yesterday forenoon, about twelve o'clock, the neighbourhood of Cranborne-alley, Leices ter-square, was thrown into a state of the greatest alarm, by an immense volume of flame and smoke bursting from the shop and first floor windows of the house of Mr. Dunn, shoemaker, and from the amazing rapidity of the devouring element, it was at first thought not one of the numerous inmates Could that - escape. However, several of the neighbours, with great activity, tore down the shutters, and with the aid of the parochial engine, confined the flames to the lOwer pared the house ; .and whils they were engaged in this praiseworthy act, a scene that beggars description was going on among the lodgers, every room hav ing its occupants, and all, in a state of inconceivable confuilon and alarm, were flinging from the windows their furniture, Ste. into the street in every direction. One of the upper room win doWs was in the confusion thrown open, and directly after a large saucepan was burial into the street witlra loud exclama tion of !' take care of the pork,;" and in its progress through the air, a kg of pork, Several dumplings, and some greens fell out ; this incident had such a hidicrotis effect, that shouts of laughter were re-echoed on all, sides ; the owner, a tailor, ap peared at the window, and was with the greatest difficulty pre vented darting into the street after his dinner. It seems lie was awoke by his wife, who, in great alarm, informed him the house was in flames ; and his first impulse was to fly to the fire,lind hurl the not containing his faMily dinner, for safety, into the street. 'lhe flames, by very great•exertion, were con fined to the lower part of the premises of Mr. Dunn, which con sist of a double house, with two shops, until the arrival of the Sun, Exchange, and County fire-engines, wfren it" plentiful supply of water being obtained, in about an hour thelire was completely subdued, having destroyed the entire of the ground floor :. the shops ants the valuable stock in trade were completely redirced to ashes. It is supposed that the fire was caused by the gas escaping, but hoW it originated was not precisely aScer tainedi' the family were from home it is an extremely for tunate circumstance that the fire did not break Cut at night; had it done so, from the - confined nature of the 'courti, in all probability the most incalculable mischief would have occurred. STATE OF PERU. (From the (Hampshire Tekg,rapi.] The following are extracts from letters which we have received from naval officers employed on the coast of Chili and Peru. W e have no doubt whatever of the authenticity of the writers' state ments—an assurance we should deem unneces sary, didwe not know the great interest which is at the present moment attached by 'B r iti s h mer chants to information from that distant quarter:— " CALLAO, SEPT. 29, 1823.—President Bolivar arrived here on the Ist instant front Guyaquil, and N. as received with every mark of respect it was in the power of these people to be stow. A report has reached us, that an action has taken place between General Santa Cruz and General Valdez, in which the latter was d. feated, with the loss of 300 men. Notwithstand ing this event, I must alter my opinion (the writer's former letters to the printers expressed his confidence in the success of the Royalists) as it is next to impossible that Geniis! Cantarac can withstand the forces which will be soon acting against him on three different points. Besides, public opinion in Lima is changing against him, though the people are not pleased with being so often called upon for contributions, as they are told, ' for the salvation of Peru.' Bolivar's first act was to levy a contribution of 100,000 dollars : and yesterday he seized all the horses and mules." " CALLA°, Nov. I.—Bolivar has been called by the. Con , stitutional Congress of Peru, and by the chiefs of the army (h 0 own words), to the supreme authority by the title of Liber tador.' -He is to have the chief military command in all the territories of Peru, as well as the civil power. He is greatly esteemed and admired by all. Santa Cruz has requested an inquiry into his conduct, respecting his recent defeat. General Miller is appointed to the chief command of the Peruvian army ; he is greatly esteemed for his valour and military talent. This appointment has met the general approbation, and re-established much confidence. The Spaniards have about 12,000 men in Upper Peru ; the Patriots expect to bring into the field about 18,000. Those from Lima will not be ready to march in less than seven or eight weeks. Between this and Pisco, there are 6,000 Colombians, 1,000 Chiliang, and 1,800 Buenos Ayriens ; 2,500 'Cliilians sailed from Valparaiso for Pisco on the 15th of October, and are no doubt arrived ere this. The Chilian - army is to be commanded by :General Pintos. Santa Cruz is yet at Moquigua, with 1,900 Peruvians. Riva A gu era, the ex- President, has acknowledged Bolivar's authority; he is at Truxillo, with 3,000 men. Three thousand are to come here from Colombia ; they are to emliark at Penama ; and these are not included in the above-stated 18,000. Even Santa Cruz speaks highly of General Miller. We hear that the commisioners have arrived at Buenos Ayres; but Bolivar says that lie shall continue the preparations for war, but hopes that matters may be settled Without further bloodshed. The public treasury of the patriots is very desti tute. Bolivar, or the Congress, has laid a tax on house pro perty ; owners pay one-fourth of rent-100,900 dollars a month raised this way—to be in force four months from the date of its operation. The Government is continually borrowing money of British merch a nt s , w hi c h t h ey rat h er eicpect to lose. The Aurora frigate, Captain Prescott, soils on the Bth, for San Blas ; she is to return here the middle of March, 'then to Valparaiso, then to Rio. She will ultimately leave the Pacific about May, by which time the Briton, 46, fir M. Maxwell; will he here. The Tartar, 42, Captain Thothas Brown, lying here, is now senior officer in the Pacific. The Fly, 18, Captain Martin, is at Valparaiso. 'l'llo Blossoth, 28, is expected :here hourly. She is to go to Valparaiso, then to Rio immediately. There are no French Allips , of war iu the Pacific. The. American Franklin, 74, and Dolphin brig; are both at Valparaiso. Lord Wm. Paget, of the Tartar, is ap pointed to the Aurora, vice Mansfield, appointed to the Tartar." LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CITANCERY, MAn'ex 20. • CHATFIELD to.'3IOTT AND ANOTHER. 3lr. FI oUNE moved for an injunction to restrain the defend ants, R. Mott, and J. C. %lott, from negociatihg or drawing' any bills on account of the partnership, receiving any debta, or disposing of the stock. The defendants having in 1810 received a patent for an improved pianoforte, called the " Stistenente" ,pianoforte, the plaintiff entered into partnership with them for 21 years. lfwas agreed by the articles executed between them, that the plaintiff should pay to the defendant R. Mott, a sum of 1,7371., and to the other defendant 500 guineas, and to a d_ vance to the business a e4ital of 2,0001, J. C. Mott was also to bring in capital, audio iny his brother a premium of 1,000 guineas, if the profits sh6uld amount to 20,000/. in five years. —The plaintiff performed'his part of the agreement; but it turned out that the business, from which so much was expect ed, yielded no profit at all; and the plaintiff received nothing for the money he advanced, whilst the defendants had thought proper to take 600/. a-year each from the concern. The Court directed notice to be served on the other side, the injunction to issue in the iiiean time. • COVENT-GARDEN iIIEATRE.—CONST V. HARRIS. Mr. lIEALD applied to his Lordship for leave for Mr. Ro bertson to be tendered to 'the Master as a fit per Son to be ap pointed'as receiver in this ease, which could not at present be done, in consequence of the plaintiff having, made him a party, when amendin g his Bill, six d a y s a ft er his (Mr. Robertson's) name had been carried in to the Master by the lessees. II ae , is Lordship could not decid e w ithout hearing both parties ; namebut, h ewa t s o ip b c e l p in r e o d po t s o ed t . hink he ought to allow Robertson'slafcl FRAY. Counsel were further heard in this case at some length ; after which his Lordship decided that the issues ought`not to go, as at present directed. BEAUMONT V. ALLNUT. Mr. frAN.T applied &wan order, directing the defendant, John .Allnut, to pay over to the plaintiff, Sir George Beaumont, the sum of 201., and also to pay the costs of this application. Sir George having purchased a valuable picture of Mr. Haydon, afterwards lent it to that artist, for the purpose of being exhi bited by him in the British Gallery, Pall-mall, which he rented of the defendant. The'ren't falling into arrear,, the defendant distrained, and amongst others the picture in question was seiz. ed. An arrangement, hoWever, was made between Mr. Haydon which it w as agree d t h at t h e pic ture s h o Uld for the rent wi t h t h e l atter . ‘II.G. Beau iranenomdnattihn n beeidse afe pledgen ngndapnat' by party to this agreement, filed a bill in Chaneery to compel the defendant to deliver him up his picture; and the Vice-Chancellor decreed that the picture should be so delivered up. This decree was appealed from to the Lord. Chancellor, who made an interlocutory order, that upon Sir "George's paying LW/. (the sum for which the picture was a security) into Court, it should be delivered up toliim. He accordingly paid the money, and sent to demand the picture; but a Mr. Pinny,who took the gallery after Mr. Haydon, refused to give it up without an order from Mr. Allnut, or payment of 201., the cost of the picture's standing in the gallery. Sir George, therefore, served the de fendant with notice, that if be did not give Mr. Pinny an order to give up the picture, he would pay him the 20/., and then move the Lord Chancellor for an order upon him (the defend ant) to refund the money, and pay the costs of the appplication. Accordingly, having been obli ge(' t o p a y th e 20/ 1 . before he re ceived the picture, the plaintifrmade the present application, contending that the defendant had been guilty of a breach of the Lord Chancellor's order, for the delivery up of the pict ure . Mr. Su tiDEN, for the defendant, argued that this application was informal, the proper course for the plaintiff to have adopted being to enforce the order of the Court. But if Sir Cieptge Beaumont chose to pay 201.; or 2,0001. for the use of his gal lery, the defendant had nothing to do 'with that ; and could not therefore be said to have committed a breach of the order. At all events, there was no occasion for the present hasty ap plication, as the question might be disposed of at the hearing of the cause. Mr. Mu,' replied. The LOUD CHANCELLOR.—If I say nothing to the con trary when 1 come into Court on Tuesday morning, cake your order : but 1 have some little difficulty. • Mr. SuoDEN—Does your Lords s hip'conceive that they have a right to their m o ti on in point of form ' The 1 4 011 P CIIANcELLon..--;-That is; my only difficulty, as to their right in point of forin ; I have none whatever as to their right in point of substance.
