LAW INTELLIGENCE.--Jan. 18. COURT OF CHANCERY. JORTIN V. THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. Their lordships delivered their judgments upon this appeal from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Stuart, pro nounced in January, 1854 ; the argument upon the ap peal having been heard early in December last, when Mr. Roundel' Palmer, Mr. J. Baily, Q.C., and Mr. C . Hall appeared on behalf of the plaintiff and the Solici tor-General, Mr. Wigram, Q.C., and Mn W. Pall for the defendants. The plaintiff was the holder of mortgage bonds upon the harbour, land, and buildings, as well as upon the rates and dues, which under the Act 57 Geo. 111., c. 34, were the property of the Folkestone Harbour Com ' pang. After the bonds had been given by the company to the various persons from whom the plaintiff derived title, the property comprised in such mortgages was mortgaged by the company to the Exchequer Loan Commissioners for an advance of money ; and upon the occasion of such mortgage to the commissioners the prior mortgagees under whom the plaintiff claimed, by a memorandum of even date with the mortgage, con ceded to the commissioners a qualified priority as of the rates and duties only, without mentioning the harbour, land, and buildings. The principal and inte rest upon their mortgage being in arrears, the commis sioners, under the powers given to them by the acts of Parliament authorising them to lend money on mortgage, took possession of the whole property of the Harbour Company, including the buildings and harbour, and sold the same to the defendants, the South-Eastern Railway Company. The questions upon the hearing before the Vice-Chancellor, and upon the appeal were—first, whe ther the commissioners, by their acts of Parliament, were empowered to give and had given to the plaintiffs a title discharged from the prior mortgages of the plain tiff, as it affected the harbour, land, and buildings, as to which there had been no concession of priority to the the commissioners, or whether the defendants' title was subject to such prior mortgage ; and secondly, whether the whole or any part of the principal and interest in respect of the plaintiff's mortgage was barred by the statute of limitations. The Vice-Chancellor's decision in favour of the plaintiff on both questions was affirmed by their lordships in theirjudgment upon the appeal. THE MANCHESTER, SHBVTIRLD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAIL WAY COMPANY V. THE LOCAL BOARD OF HEALTH FOR THE DISTRICT OP WORKSOP. Mr. Rolt and Mr. G. W. Collins moved for an in junction to restrain the defendants from diverting certain streams of water from flowing, as they had previously flowed, into the Chesterfield and Gainsborough canal, and from using the water of such streams for the pur pose of cleansing the sewers made ley the defendants, and then from discharging the same water in a polluted state into the said canal. The canal in question was originally made under the provisions of an act passed in the third year of George 111., for making acanal from Chesterfield through or near Worksop, to join the River Trent at Stock with, and to supply the said canal, whilst the same should be making, and when made, with water out of such springs as should be found in making such canal, and out of such brooks, streams, and watercourses as were, or should be found within the dietauce of one thousand yards from any part of the said intended canal, and from certain other sources men tioned in the act, with powers to make reservoirs, side cuts, and drains, on adjoining lands, for the purpose of supplying the water to the canal. By several acts of Parliament the Canal Company became amalgamated with the Railway Company under the title of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway Company, and by the 263 d section of 12 and 13 Victoria, it was amongst other things provided that the company thereby incorporated should at all times thereafter maintain the canal and works thereto belonging in working order, and preserve the supplies of water to the same, en that the said canal should be at all times kept open and navigable for the use of all persons desirous of using the same. A local board of health having been established for the district of Worksop under the provisions of 11 and 12 Victoria c. 63, and 15 and 16 Victoria, c. 42, and a considerable population beginning to grow up in the district, that board had constructed a sewer for the purpose, as alleged by the bill, of draining the houses already built, as well as any that might be built in the same locality. And by this drain it was alleged that the water which used to flow into the canal would be diverted and used for the purpose of cleansing the sewer and cess-pools, and would then be emptied into the canal in a filthy and polluted state, carrying with it the refuse from the houses, pigsties, and stable ; and that the proper course for the Board of Health to have taken would have been to make their drain in such a way that it might be carried under the canal, and so into a stream on the other side. Mr. James, Mr. Selwyn, and gr. Forster appeared for the defendants, and after some discussion offered to give an undertaking to do nothing more until the right had been tried at law. Mr. Rolt suggested that the question should be set tled by a common law judge sitting with the Vice-Chan cellor. The Vice. Chancellor, however, said he thought there was a question which ought to go to a jury, and therefore he should direct that the defendants under taking not to open or permit to be opened any side sewers, or other sewers into the main sewer which had been constructed, the motion should stand over, with liberty to the plaintiffs to bring such action as they might be advised, and with liberty to either side to apply. WOODARD T. THIS EASTERN COUNTIES AND THE LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAILWAY COMPANIES. This was a motion for an injunction to restrain the defendants from constructing their line of railway from Tilbury to Southend, over the plaintiff's land, referred to in certain notices which had been served by the com pany in December, 1852, or interfering with Mrs. Woodard's possession until compensation had been made. The plaintiff's lands consisted of two leasehold farms at Hadleigh, in Essex. The company, in 1852, had served the usual notices of their intention to purchase, upon the deceased lessee, of whom the plaintiff was adminis tratrix. In the course of last year they applied to the plaintiff's professional adviser for• the purpose of obtain ing possession of the land. Compensation for the crops, and for interference, was required as a condition of the assent to this request. It turned out that the company did not take posses s i on , nor pay f or th e crops . Th e plaintiff's solicitor then communicated with the Com pany, stating that it was intended to sow the land, and demanding compensation by reason of the rail way crossing the Kersey Marsh Farm. In October a sum for compensation was agreed upon by the solicitors or agents, and it was arranged that accommodation works should be erected by the defendants. These agreements did not appear to have been sent to, or exe cuted by the parties, and, during the last month the de fendants took the land without paying any compensa tion or giving notice, as was alleged, or making the de posit required by the Lands Clauses Act. Mr. Daniel and Mr. Nalder were for the plaintiff. Mr. Rolt and Mr. Greene were for the companies, and stated that they had reason to believe the plaintiff acquiesced in the entry, and they were quite prepared to pay a reasonable amount of compensation, and if it was deemed insufficient, the existing statutes afforded a remedy without the extraordinary aid of the Court by lin unction. His Honour thought the case was not of a very serious character. The plaintiff was justified in apply ing to the Court under all the circumstances, and he must, therefore, grant the injunction as prayed, until further order, as the entry was illegal. whole matter might be thoroughly investigated. An in- ' vestigation had accordingly taken place, and one of the surgeons who had given the certificate had superintended the proceedings upon the part of the person by whom Mr. Greenwood had been confined. Several, however, of the witnesses who had attended upon the part of Mr. Greenwood had not been examined ; the witnesses upon either side had not been examined on oath ; nor was the alleged lunatic himself, or his attorney, permitted to be present, notwithstanding that an application asking for such permission had been made. The investi gation had terminated in a resolution of the justices de claring that they saw no reason why Mr. Greenwood should be set at liberty. That gentleman possessed pro perty to the amount of 1,5001. a year, and out of that sum his cousin and heir-at-law was generous enough to allow Mr. Pinder, the keeper of the Retreat, for the board and maintenance of his unhappy relative, only 1001. per annum. Mr. Greenwood was a bachelor, and shortly previous to the date of his confinement he had had two or three violent attacks of spasms, and had in consequence deemed it prudent to settle his affairs as soon as possible. In speaking upon the subject to his cousin, Mr. Eastwood, he had mentioned it to be his in tention to make a will, and had expressed himself as wishing to deal kindly with his illegitimate daughter, Mrs. Ormerod. Only two days after that conversation he had been permitted torgo alone to Blackpool, a distance of fifty or sixty miles, and had returned upon the 29th of September to his own house. Upon the 2d of October, to the inexpressible astonishment of his en tire neighbourhood, he had been lodged in an asylum under the circumstances which had been detailed. Not a word bad been said about his being insane up to the moment when he had spoken with respect to the in tended disposition of his property. Two or three months previous to that time his relatives had been with him at a public meeting, at which he hadibeen treated as a per son of local importance, and as one fully competent to deal with matters of business. There was the evidence of farmers to show that in his capacity as a corn-dealer Mr. Greenwood had always exhibited considerable shrewdness, and that he acted as president of the market table at Wakefield. In addition to all that testimony it appeared that a very short time before he had been confined he had renewed a lease of a very extensive farm upon his estate ; that his broker, having been per fectly convinced of his competency to deal with the matter, had refused to interfere between him and the lessee, though urged to do so by the latter ; and that the lessee had complained of the terms of his lease, as being very hard as against himself, who had so many years been Mr. Greenwood's tenant. Mr. Justice Coleridge said the learned sergeant might take a rule nisi, but that it was desirable the writ should be made returnable in chambers. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins—Withia a week ? Mr. Justice Coleridge—A week would, in my opinion, be too short a time, considering the voluminous charac ter of the evidence. Rule granted. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Tin. 18. CLERKENWELL.—Mrs. Mary Cumber, wife of a man of independent means, residing at 34, Frederick street, Gray's-inn-road, was charged with assaulting Frances Thomson, her servant. The summons had been issued the day before at the suggestion of Mr. Tubbs, the relievin, officer of the Marylebone Union. On that occasion the girl ex'nibited the state of her back from the injuries inflicted on her, and it was so horrible that the magistrate shuddered, and, without hearing any further statement, directed a summons to be issued. When the case was called on, Mr. Tubbs stated that the proceedings were instituted by the Marylebone Board of Guardians, the complainant having been placed from the workhouse as servant with the accused. Mr. Tubbs put in a medical certificate to the effect that the complainant's back and arms were co vered with weals and discokrations, probably caused by a stick ; and added that the complainant had on Wed nesday sought refuge again in the workhouse, ax she said, to avoid continued ili treatment. The complainant, a diminutive, but otherwise healthy locking girl, on being sworn, said—l am 16 years old, and for above two years have been servant to Cumbet. Yesterday I was dusting the passage, when she came to me, and said, " Look at the clock l" She then called me into the back parlour and beat me with a cane over the shoulders because I did not clean my self and get my work done by 2 o'clock to lay the din ner cloth. When she beat me, I had only my cotton frock on, and an apron and collar; and after she beat me, she told rae that if it was at 12 o'clock at night she would strip me naked, and beat me until she could not stand. She then went upstairs to dress, and I put my bonnet on and went to the Marylebone Workhouse. She might have struck me 40 times, but I cannot say, because I was running about the parlour when she did it. I was beaten in the morning before, and twice be fore that. Once because I used a house-cloth to wipe up something, my mistress stripped me naked in my bed room, and beat me. Cross-examined by Mr. Wakeling—My mistress's daughter and another servant were present when she beat me in the back parlour. I never complained to the work house until yesterday. On one occasion my mistress did eomplain to my sister of my pilfering, but that occurred because I was sent for two pennyworth of carrots and two pennyworth of turnips, and the greengrocer gave me the change 4d. out of 6d. I did keep the 2d.; but when I told my fellow-servant she told my mistress that I had twopence out of the change, and my mistress said that ought to be hers as I had taken it from the man wron g ly. At first I deniedit, but to save myself from a beating, I confessed I did pilfer or steal the money. I have broken things, but when I did so I paid for them at times. Mr. Wakeling—Have your ever written or received letters from your sister about your bad conduct. Complainant—l have received letters from my sister. Mr. Wakeling—Are these them (handing the com plainant some papers),? Complainant—Yes ; these are mine. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Really this is very paltry treatment of a poor child, to take her letters, addressed to herself by 'her sister, to whom they are a great credit. I have perused them, and I think it a most miserable proceed ing to open any person's box to take letters and make them evidence for the defence, but after all there is no thing in them. The cane (produced) was a rattan, about the thickness of a man's little finger, and about a yard long ; and to verify the excessive punishment inflicted the girl ex posed her back. Its appearance made every one in court shudder. A. more strict cross-examination showed that a most extraordinary amount of work was desired of a mere child, and because she did not do it she was badly treated. Mr. Wakeling, in admitting the assault, treated the matter as a mere correction for insubordination ; and the magistrate, deciding that the assault arose out of a mere hasty display of temper, inflicted a fine of 40s. The money was immed;ately paid, and the defendant departed. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. —J ames _Henry Puttca., of Oakland Cottage, Brook-green, Hammersmith, was brought before Mr. Hardwick, charged with embezzling various sums of money, amounting to more than 4001., received on account of his employers, Messrs. Garrard and James, solicitors, 13, Suffolk-stre e t, P a ll-m a ll. Mr. Morgan, of the firm of Humphreys and Morgan, appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Stephen Garrard, of the firm of Garrard and James, stated that the prisoner was in their employ as ca9hier up to the previous night, when, in consequence of circurnatanc es which took place in the office, he re quired defendant to hand him a particular account of the rental of an estate, the rents of which were very much in arrear, and told him that he should collect them himself to-day. From the prisoner's manner at this an nouncement he (prosecutor) was induced to charge him with having received the rents, and embezzled the money. Prisoner at once admitted that he had done so, Prose cutor upon this desired him to make out an account of all the money he had received and embezzled, as the facts must come out on an investigation of the books, and the communications of the various tenants. The prisoner then proceeded, in prosecutor's presence, to make out the particulars of the account which he now held in his- hand, admitting monies received and em bezzled amounting to near 500/. Prosecutor was not at present prepared to go further into the case, and begged for a remand. Prisoner was remanded for a week. BAIL COURT. El PARTE GREENWOOD. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins, in moving for a rule in this case to show cause why a writ of habeas corpus should not issue, directed to Mr. Pindar, the keeper of a pri vate lauatic asylum, called "The Retreat," near Lan caster, to produce the body of Mr. Greenwood, stated that Mr. Greenwood was a gentleman of large fortune, residing at Todmorden, in Yorkshire ; that he was 65 years of age ; and that, up to the 2d of October last, no doubt of his sanity had been entertained by any one of his acquaintance. There were in support of the motion the affidavits of 30 individuals, four of whom were me dical gentlemen. One of those four gentlemen had attended Mr. Greenwood regularly for the last 20 years, and the remaining three lived in his immediate neigh bourhood, and had been acquainted with him for a long time. Each and all of them had declared upon oath that there existed not the slightest reason to suppose that Mr. Greenwood was insane. His own medical attendant had stated that he had seen him upon the day on which he had been placed in confinement ; that he had often previously conversed with him ; that he was acquainted with all his antecedents ; and that the only evidence of any infirmity in his case was a Blight decay of mem ory an d an absence of the activity of earlier life. The gen tl emen in question, wi w t e h o lh e ex ception of one, had gone t o see Mr. Greenwood his confinement at least o nce , w hi le some of thetnsilaede visited him three times. Those visits had been made for the express purpose of testing the sanity of the alleged lunatic ; every means had been resorted to by those gentlemen in or d er t o sa ti s f y themselves upony that point, and they had declared upon oath that there existed no growled whatever for supposing Mr. Greenwood to be insane, or t• justify his confine ment. They had gone even further, and had given it as their opinion that confinement would be prejudi cial to his health, and would shorten hie existence. In addition to the evidence of the members of the medical Profession, there was that of Mr. Greenwood's servants, ofgentlemen of prope . rfy . who lived close to his house, and of clergymen withthe residing in his neighbourhood. All exception of one, had k nown him for the last t t h os e persons, hirt y or forty years, and had repeatedly conve rsed with him up to the very last day of his con finement. Two of t hem had been with him upon the morning of that day i n the sho p of bea hairdresser, to which place he was in th e habit of going to sha ve d . He had upon that occasion exhibited his usual propriety and regularity of demeanour, a nd had stated that his cousin, J. Eastwood, was about to drive him to see Stoueybnrst, an educational establishment in the vicinity. He had appeared to be delighted at the prospect of the drive ; but, instead of being driven in the direction which he hadanticip whatever he had been taken byla cousin, LAMBETH.— The ch a i rman o f the Board of Guar and,or without any der hatever, or medical certificate,i i dians of the parish of St. Mary's, Newington, accornpa had been lodged in an asylum. He had been kept nied by one of the gurdians and Mr. Burgess, their clerk, waited on the Hon. G. C. Norton, an d having referred in that asylum a d ay and a night, and upon the following morning had been driven a distance of to a report which appeared in the daily papers of Mon twenty miles to Blackb urn , where a certificate o f hi s day, wherein his worship was alleged to have co mmen t e d 1 inanity had been obtained f rom medical men w h o h a d never previously seen Mr. G reenwood. Upon the autbo- o i n era ifisceev terms on the conduct of Herring, th e re li eving . r of Newington parish, in his negligence of the po or , rity of that certificate he had been conducted back to the ; he said that in consequence of these severe remarks the asylum ; an d a ll those steps had been taken, notwith- board had called on Mr. Herring to furnish them with stanai ag th at t h ere were re s id en t i n Todmorden four hie written explanations.

William Coombs, an ex-policeman, and well-known to the London thieves as the " Surrey Wolf," stated that he was at the boa-entrance of the Surrey Theat re l ast night, about half - past eleven o'clock, when the audience were about to leave. Ho saw the prisoner pushing among the crowd, and suspecting him, watched his actions, and saw him go up to two ladies, and feel a b ou t their d resses . He called the atfliction of Mr. Phillips, one of the check-takers, to his actions, and finding he still pushed among the females, he gave him into custody to Watt:l:lough, 105 L.

Coombes—Yes, I am paid by Mr. Shepherd, and I look after the thieves. Mr. A'Beckett—l dare say your looks are enough to fright 3n them away. However, your evidence is not enough to convict him before a jury, therefore I must discharge him. case Herring the officer had not mentioned a single word t of his having done so at the time, for had he done so his (Mr. Norton's) interference would have been at an end. The fact was that a number of poor persons (he understood as many as 27) belonging to the parish of Newington, had been in attendance at this court to ap- ; ply for relief, and many of them having complained of being in a starving state, he had relieved them with half-a-crown a-pieoe, and directed the officer to request Mr. Herring to attend to their cases. Finding on the next day that this had not been done, and that a proper representation had not been made to the guardians as to the state of same of the persons, he sent for Mr. Her ring, and expressed to that officer what his feelings were, but if these expressions acted improperly to his prejudice he was sorry for it. Mr. Burgess said that one of the great evils which the board of guardians and the officers of the, parish had to deal with was that of this court being made a court of appeal for imaginary grievances, or the manner in which they are to discharge their duties. Mr. Norton replied that the court was not one of ap peal, and Mr. Burgess was very much mistaken in saying so. The court, however, was an open one, and it was the duty of a magistrate—at least he (Mr. Norton) should always feel it to be his duty—to hear the com plaints of all persons requesting his advice, were they paupers or others. At the same time he wished to state that there was no person less willing to interfere with the duties of the guardians or the parish officers so long as those very onerous duties were discharged in a humane and proper spirit ; but finding so overwhelming a number as twenty-seven persons on the same day coming to complain of the same parish, he confessed that he felt it his province to interfere. Mr. Burgess, the chairman, and the other members of the . board of guardians, said they had frequent op portunities of observing the conduct of their relieving officer, Mr. Herring, and never had occasion to find fault with it. Mr. Norton replied that he had every reason to sup. pose from many communications which had reached him, that the board of guardians were too much disposed to place implicit reliance on the representations of Mr.. Herring, while it was quite clear that in the most re— markable case relied on his representations were nol,, correct, for had the family of the person before the board been visited by him or his deputy, Mr. Herring would have found three or four children in a state of nakedness, and without a bit of fire. He (Mr. Norton) always he - lieved the guardians of Newington parish to be most humane and desirous to do anything in their power - to alleviate the sufferings of the poor, but he did not thin k those necessary inquiries as to the state of the poor wr.as made by their officers. Mr. Burgess here read the resolution of the beard .of guardians, acquitting Herring of all blame, and requests d that he might leave a copy, but Mr. Norton objected to the document on the ground that it impugned the accuracy of the report of the pro ; ceedings before him, which he declared to be perfe , zti'y correct.—Mr. Burgess then retired. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, J'ANITARY 10, 1855. WILFUL FIRE-IZAISING. Dr. George Lillie Smith and Robert Campbell we re tried before the High Court of Justiciary at Edinburg: o, on Monday, for the crime of wilful fire-raising, at 'laughs of Kinnaird, near Brechin. The - prisoners were charged with having, on the 30 th September, or the .Ist October, in or near the stackya rd of the farm of "laughs of Kinnaird, parish of Farn.ell, Forfarshiro, occupied by Mr. John Smith, wilfully s et fire to one or more stacks of grain, by applying to the: re lighted matches or other ignited substance—the fire thus wilfully applied haying taken effect and burned the whole stackyard, containing altogether fifty-five stac. l ,cs of grain. _ The pannels pleaded not guilty, and the case went. to trial. A special defence was put in for Smith, that At the time of the fire he was insane ; and for Campbell, that Smith was liable to get excited, and that his co: k duct under that excitement was calculated to alarm and overa,we those with whom he came i n contact. After a long trial, which lasted for three days, The jury unanimously found that the pannel, Georg e Little Smith, committed the act of fire raising mentione d in the libel, but that at the time of doing so be wa s ins tne ; and found the pannel Robert Campbell no t guilty. • The verdict having been recorded, Lord Cowan said he had now much pleasure in discharging the jury, an d expressed his regret that they had been so lon g detained. The prisoner Campbell was then dismissed from t) te bar, and Dr. Smith wai ordered to be brought up on Thursday at half-past ten for judgment. THE ALLEGED UNLAWFUL PLEDGINII. Livießroor,, Thursday.—Clifford Firth and John Archer, brokers, of Walraer-buildings, Liverpool, re manded from yesterday on a charge of having illegally pawned a number of barrels of tar which bad been en trusted to therm for sale were again brought up for ex amination. Mr. Simons, barrister, prosecuted; and Mr. .A.spino.,ll and Mr. Conway defended the prisoners. It appeared that Messrs. Laurie and Co., of New York, bad consigned a quantity of tar to the prisoners, upon which the latter had made an advance of money. Some of the tar was subsequently pleeged to Messrs. Firth and Son (brother and nephew of one of the :pri soners), and it was now contended that when they did se pledge it they did so for an advance much larger titan the one they had themselves made, and which was a -vio lation of the 6th clause of c. 39th of sth and 6th Vie. The defence was, that Laurie and Co. having received aldvances, were enabled, by ♦irtue of a document which was put in, to pledge or dispose of such goods in consi deration of the advance. It was denied that the goods were pledged for a greater sum than the advance ; but, even admitting such to be the fact, the offence, if any, did not come under the provisions of the Factor's Act. Mr. Simons asked for a remand, in order that further evidence should be produced to prove that the goods were pledged for a larger sum than had first been ad vanced ; but Mr. Mansfield said he could not allow the parties to be detained in custody until a charge could be made up against them, Inasmuch as the depositions upon which a warrant had been issued made a specific charge which had not been maintained. He should, therefore, dismiss the case. Mr. Simons entered his protest against such a course being adopted when he asked for a remand to produce the evidence which was so desirable. Mr. Evart, the other magistrate on the bench, said if he understood Mr. Simons correctly he undertook to produce proper evidence to make out a case, if a remand were granted him. Mr. Simone—Exactly so. Mr. Ewart then observed that ho thought a remand should he granted. Mr. Simone here conferred with Mr. Aspinall for a few istoznente, and then stated that though the present case was dismissed, he had another charge against Messrs. Firth and Archer for illegally pledging 10 bar rette of tar, and if the bench had no objection to allow them out on their own recognisances, he would be glad to have this case heard on Monday next. The bench said they were quite agreeable to such a course being adopted. The defendants were liberated on their own recogni sances to appear on Monday next at twelve o'clock. The case has excited the greatest amount of interest in the town, and during the proceedings tho court was densely crowded with the principal merchants and others engaged in commercial pursuits. It is stated that other charges of a similar nature will be brought forward should the one now intended to be proceeded with not be successful. EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION, AND NARROW' ESCAPE OF THREE -FIRE MEN. Yesterday morning, about three o'clock a fire, at tended with a destruction of several thousand pounds worth of property, happened in the premises belonging; to Mr. William Abseil, a cooper, carrying on an ex tensive business at No. 13, Blossom-street, White Lion street, Norton Folgate, nearly opposite the Standard Theatre. The building in which the disaster occurred was one of considerable magnitude, and contained a costly stock of goods ; and from the fact of the premises being ap proached by a gateway the conflagration was not dis covered by the police on the beat until it had made con siderable progress, and not until the flames had con - - nienced pouring forth from the different windows in the cooperage, and almost at the same moment they rushed through the roof and rose several feet into the air, ,com pletely illuminating the neighbourhood for miles round. The engines of the parish, with two or three of the London Brigade, were as early as possible on the spot, followed by that of the West of England Insurance Company and three others of the London Establishment. Upon the arrival of the firemen they could see quite suf ficient to satisfy themselves that nothing but the most strenuous exertions on their part could subdue so fearful a fire, which at that period threatened to destroy the front dwelling-house, and also the large ivory-turning factory at the back. Fortunately, an early supply of water was obtained, and the several engines were forth with set to work ; but in spite of the exertions of the firemen the flames continued to spread, and whilst the firemen actively employed the fire communicated with the front house, and as they were trying to extinguish the flames the roof suddenly fell in, knocking down Baylis, one of the engineers, who fell back ; and Mr. Howell and Mr. Connerton, of the Wsst of England engine, likewise fell. They, however, succeeded in effecting their escape without receiving the least per oh, The :I II : 12 th e o per sonal injury, except Baylis, who was severely struck on the head. The firemen, however, kept to their posts, and at length succeeded in subduing the fire, but not de stroyed ; the property of Mr. Carter, the ivory mer chant, considerably damaged ; and a Mr. Mitchell, a lLoa allikewiselo s Cooperage w of Mr. Abseil was entirely de and water. will amount ohe a use tin g eAt r n e ttt oi Atlas sla deal considerableof will Thfiet police o p l r i principally ta n l l d y i e l keeping an immense crowd of danger. ai andd Sunspectatorsto outthfi 0 e of o r elfi s um,m c e e fire men b y and b y SINGULAR ROBERRT. —The house of Fould, Oppen helm, Co., in Paris, was robbed on.
