THE OFFICERS KILLED IN TEE CRIMEA. 1 Captain Stanley, 57t"n Re.;:ment, whn fell while corn standing his regiment in the Crimea, when quite a boy fought and bled in the cause of the Queen of Portugal, and was made Knight of the Tower and Sword. His Majesty William IV. himself gave him his commission and introduced him into the army. He was a branch of the Lancashire Stanlays. He married three years ago Miss Balfour, whose father, Captain Balfour, R.N., was many years member for Orkney. Captain Stanley will long be regretted by all who had the happiness of knowing him. This gallant officer volunteered to form part of the first party to storm Sebastopol. He was in terred close to his Colonel, Brigadier-General Goldie, on Cathcart-hill, Major Charles Thomas. Powell, who fell before Sebas topol, served throughout the operations in Scinde;ldunde bir C. Napier, including the battles of Meanee a H o at ff derabad, for the latter receiving a meda l ; he was a the destruction of Fort Imaumghur. Major T. N. Dalton, of the 49th Regiment, who fell at Inkerman, served in the Punjaub campaign of 1348 and 1849 ; was present at the passage ®o the Chenab, and in the battles of Sadoolapore, Chillianwallah, and Goojerat, and with the field force in pursuit of the enemy to the Khyber Pass in March, 1849, receiving a medal and two clasps. Captain William Kent Allix, who fell en the heights of Inkerman' wa s born in the year 1823, and was con sequently in his 32d year. He was third son of Mr. Charles Allix, of Willoughby, near Grantham. He was educated at Harrow and at Sandhurst, where he gained his commission without purchase, having passed so good an examination that he was specially mentioned in the United Service Journal for June, 1840, and was gazette(' on the 28th of July of that year to an En signey in the Ist or Royal Regiment, the depot of which regiment he joined at Buttevant, in Ireland, in th 3 autumn of the same year. The following spring he was sent with a detachment to join the head-quarters of the regiment at Gibraltar. He remained there a year, and was appointed Adjutant to the battalion, which office he filled for nine years, only resigning it in consequence of his gaining his company. He served in Canada, in the West . lndies, and a second time in Canada. He was appointed in 1853 Brigade Major to Lieutenant-General Sir De Lacy Evans, and also to Sir Richard England I during the period of the camp at Chobham, and at the beginning of the- present year Lieutenant-General Sir De Lacy Evans selected him as his senior aide-de-camp for the campaign in the East. He accompanied Sir De Lacy Evans to Scutari, to Varna, and to the Crimea ; he was present at the Battle of the Alma, where he was honourably mentioned in Lord Raglan's despatches ; also at the battle of Balaklava on the 25th and 26th, when be was again mentioned in the official despatches, and fell nobly on the field of Inkerman, discharging to the last his duty as a soldier in the service of his Queen and country. Ensign Clutterbuck, of the 63d Regiment, who was killed at the battle of Inkerman, was the eldest surviv ing son of Mr. Robert Clutterbuck, of Watford, Herts, and was only in his 20th year. George Evans, a private is the same regiment, also a native of Watford, was fighting by his side when be received his death wound, and in writing hems to his mother he thus alludes to the event :—" Our regiment and the 21st formed line. We then charged them, and we did it most gloriously ! We routed thousands of them, and as fast as we could fire and load our pieces, se fast they fell, for we could net miss them they were so thick. We chased them for the best part of a mile past titer own entrenchment, and close up to that, in the thick of the whsle of it, poor Mr. Clutter buck was carrying the Queen's colours and cheering the men on. I think the last words that he said were— ' Come on, 63d !' when he received a shot right through the neck, which killed him instantly. He died gloriously ! I never saw a braver man than him in the field that day, although it is with sorrow that I have to record his de..th. As for myself, thank God, I did not so much ai receive a scratch the whole of the day. After the fight Waq over I went and got Mr. Ciutterbuck's remains carried to the camp, where they were properly interred the next day. I took a small piece of his hair, which I send to you to give over to his respected filends. His father may well be proud of having had such a son, for he fought and died bravely, with the Queen's colours of the 63d Regiment in his hand."— Chelmsford Chronicle. THE MAOKINNONS OF THE COLDSTREAI GIIABDS. Amongst those brave officers who have fallen in the glorious battle of Inkerman particular mention should be made of one, as he sprang from a family whose blood has been so freely shed in past years whilst fighting against the foes of their country. This allusion is to the late Lieutenant-Colonel Lionel D. Mackinnon, the third son of William Alexander Mackinnon, Esq., M.P. for Rye who died from th e woun d s h e rece i ve d w hil st gallantly leading on, with his brother officers, the Cold stream Guards against the crushing attack of the Russian columns. His sad death in this terribly con tested action recalls to mind the eminent military services of two other members of the Mackinnon family, both of them connected with the Coldstream .Guards. Major-General Mackinnon, the great uncle of the late Lieutenant-Colonel Lionel D. Mackinnon, entered at an early age into the Coldstrearns. He first served under the Duke of York in Holland. During the re bellion in Ireland he was Brigade-ilfajor to General Sir G. Nugent, and distinguished himself equally by his courage and humanity. He was in the expeditions in Egypt, in Germany with Lord Cathcart, aid at the taking of Copenhagen. In NOS he embarked for the Peninsula and fought with great reputation under Lord Wellington. Ho was killed at the memorable storming of Ciudad Rodrigo, on the 19th Jaemary, 1312. A monument is ereetei in St. Paul's Cathedral to the memory of this distinguished officer. Colonel Daniel Mackinnon, who died in ltertford street, May Fair, in June 1836, was brother of the ktnourable member for Rye. He entered the army at the age of fourteen ; was sent immediately to the siege of Copenhagen, then to Bremen, and the following year to the Peninsula. His activity, extraordinary courage, and frankness of manner, soon won for him the esteem of his companions in arms. On one occasion, in the presence of the English and French armies, he descended to the bank of a river and quietly took account of the - position of the enemy, amid a shower of balls. Throughout the whole of the Peninsular campaign he distinguished himself by similar acts of cool and determined bravery. At Waterloo, when he was Lieut.-Colonel in the Coldstrearns, he led the advance against the French ; his horse was shot dead under him—he was wounded himself and lost his sword —but, falling near a French officer, he took his sword from him, and gently told him that "he hoped that they might sup together that night." In the subse quent part of that memorable day, he was with the Coldstream in the farm at Hugoumont, and con trived to defend it until the French troops gave up the contest. At the close of the action, he was com pletely delirious from pain and fatigue ' and was sent on t o Brussels ; but thevround which was in his knee affected his system ever after. In 1826 he became Major and Brevet-Colonel; and in 1830 he succeeded to the Lieut.- Colonelcy and command of the regiment of Coldatreams. Colonel Daniel Mackinnon could wield the pen as well as the sword ; for he became the able historian of the Coldstream', whose valuable services he himself so much nhanced. The more especial subject of this notice, the lamented Lieutenant-Colonel Lionel D. Mackinnon, was educated at Sandhurst, and entered the army in 1843, taking up his cemmissien in the Coldstreams, which distinguished corpe he accompanied to the Crimea with all the mili tary ardour evinced by his renowned relatives ; and there fell, with seven of his brother officers, in the noble discharge of his duty, leaving behind a name which will be ever cherished with affectionate remembrance by every survivor in his regiment. The regret which is felt at the loss of this young and promising officer will be increased when it is known that he has left a widow and three children to mourn his death. His lady is the daughter of the late Major-General Sir Dudley St. Leger Hill, K.C.8., at the time of his death, in 1851, Colonel of the 50th regi ment and Major-General on the Bengal Staff. There are other members of this family holding com missions in the British army ; but, as we trust they are yet living, it is as well not to speak of their services.-- Church and State Gazette. THE LATE BRIGADIERGENERAL FOX STRANG WAYS. The following detail of the last moments of Brigadier Geueral Fox Strangwayslis from authentic sources : Among the brave and distinguished who fell in num bers on the fatal banks of the lukerutan, none has left, from high to low in his bereaved family circle, and amongst a most extensive and attached circle of friends in many parts of Europe, regrets more deep than the late Brigadier-General Fox Strangways. He died as he had lived, foremost in the ranks of his country's gallant • ;Idlers.

Exhaustion, c..nse- quent on the shattered state of his wounded leg, brought Shr on a succession of fainting fits, and merely uttering a few words of affection and farewell to his family, he gra- .-- d ua lly sunk, and expired in little more than an hour and a half from the moment of receiving his mortal Si wound. Thus fell on the fatal battle-ground surround- 12 ing Sebastopol as brave, as gallant, as good a man and r ,. so ldier as is numbered among that gallant band of brave u i `.. ; and noble spirits—the officers of the British army — worthy to command troops whose gallant bearing is not 3. to be surpassed in any army of any nation, though well worthy are their brave allies, the French, to fight side 2' by side with our eastern heroes. To his regiment the loss of such a man and such a 2 soldier as Brigadier-General Fox Strangways is irre- 2 parable. One and all, from the highest to the lowest ranks, in the Royal Artillery, mourn him as "the ; bravest and best"—jealousies are silenced—all spirit of 3 rivalry inseparable from all large bodies of men M all professions subdued—all unite in one common tribute of deep and sincere mourning for him who has died for his / Queen and country on the battle-field of " the luker man Valley," and unite in the prayer, "God grant his seal rest and peace." OBSEQUIES FOR THE KILLED IN THE CRIMEA. 25 The Freeman's Journal gives the following account of St. the celebration in St. Paul's, Roman Catholic Church, 20 of obsequies of the soldiers who have fallen in the Rue- sty siaa war : "The interior of the church presented an aspect of St. sombre grandeur. The high altar, and also the side altars 25 were draped in black. The centre nave, constituting the Ste lower choir without the sanctuary, veal richly carpeted r o • and surrounded with seats for the attendant clergy. In the St. centre of the nave was erected a tastefully designed cats- 10 falque, covered with black velvet, bordered with rich St. silver lace. Surmounting the catafalque was an emble- St. matic coffin covered with a pall of silk velvet, embroidered St. with a cross in white satin. On the lid of the coffin was St.l displayed a helmet, worn by a soldier of the Royal Irish St. Dragoons killed in the action at Alma, and who, pre- St.t• vioua to his departure for the war, had bees an atten tive frequenter of his duties in this church. At each 12 corner of the catafalque, the flags of Great Britain and 50 the French tricolour waved over the coffin. Around the 16,1 base of the erecaon were placed six massive tapers of wax, 16i lighted. The funeral bell, which tolled during the St. morning from the church tower, called together a vast 19i congregation, including crowds of gentry and citizens 14 of all classes, among which latter might be recognised. ?.9 many of the wives and relatives of the deceased sol- Ili Bt. diers. A large section of the military still in garri- St. son were mingled with the congregation. The church 20 organ pealed forth but once previous to the ceremonial, 10 when the tones of the Dead March were heard. At this 11.1 period an incident fraught with deep and melancholy in- St. terest occurred. Mr. Wheble, brother of thelate lamented 50 Rev. Mr. Wheble, the pious missionary at the seat of war, 40 who has lost his I:fe while discharging the duties of a 25 1 philanthropist and a Christian priest, entered the church, 25 t. . conducted by the Rev. Mr. Smith wick, and took the place assigned him, in order to assist ie the devotions B S s l t 2 .3 about to be offered up for the repose of the souls of our St. brave soldiers. Shortly after 11 o'clock the vast body 50 of clergy issued from the sanctuary. They were con- 25 siderably over 100 in number. The ceremonial com- Leo menced with solemn office for the dead. At the proper 6; period the grand pontifical high mass commenced, and 2f the canticles peculiar to it were sung by the full choir 50 of priests. At the conclusion of the high mass the 20 solemn absolution of the dead was pronounced at the Q . head of the catafalque by the Lord Bishop of Bombay. g E The ceremonial then terminated." St. LETTERS FROM THE CRIMEA. IPaid4 RAILVATO. The following letter is from a surgeon serving i the camp before Sebastopol : " Camp before Sebastopol, Nov. 8. " A gain I have to tell of the hard-fought battle- field, and of my preservation from its dangers. Praised be God, He has sheltered me once more under the protection o His guardian arm, so continually outstretched to save and defend me from all danger. Ere you receive this the newspapers will have given you the intimation of the battle just fought, and of our success therein. Since the commencement of the campaign we have been thrice en gaged in actual battle ; and that of Inkerman has truly been terrible and sanguinary. Oar gallant foe seems de termined, at least on land, to test our strength, although by this time he must be well satisfied that English shot and steel are irresistible in opposition. " At about daybreak of the sth the enemy was re ported to be moving against us, the first intimation of which was the usual desultory firing from the English advanced pickets. Fancying for a while it was but an \ affair of outposts, I determined on lylag quietly and r i 2 snugly in my tent few a while ; but had no sooner so rj ; determined than the booming of our field guns (of which " a small number are always ' ready,' near to our most 20 20 exposed position) warned me that it was desirable to 20 turn out, the more so as there was heard in the distance 25 a steady roll of musketry. The alarm was general through the whole Allied camp, when, throwing aside slumber and blanket too, and without regarding my toilet (being at all times ready attired for action), I was quickly in the saddle, waiting my turn for duty. "In comparatively a short time oar outposts were driven in, when column after column of the enemy came pouring over the hills which separate our lines from theirs. Soon all was bustle, though order prevailed in tact, and quick as thought our troops were face to face with their adversaries. The advance of the enemy was so rapid we were taken entirely by surprise, so well had they planned and directed the attack, since their ad vanced troops were upon our very camp ere sufficient force could be brought to oppose them. This latter, however, was soon remedied, for on came the artillery at a gallop, and were speedily followed by the infantry, who quickly formed, and were seen crowding the side and crest of the hill, when the fight soon wore the aspect of a real battle. My services were soon in requi sition, when I made, as I thought, convenient arrange ments .., for the wounded, but which I was compelled to 17? abandon in the course of an hour, from the circumstance 20 of solid shot and live shell falling thickly around me, so 20 as to render my position anything but agreeable. I 20 now fell back on my own camp, where, having a tent 20 and all things handy, I established as comfortable an 20 hospital as could be wished, and where I was soon in 10 0 requisition by a host of applicants of all ranks, who had been sent to the rear for surgical aid. I was soon, 100 however, again compelled to beat a retreat, the Russians 20 haviwg advanced their battalions into such a position that 25 they regularly enfiladed our whole camp. It was well 25 for the inmates of the tents that they had abandoned 25 them so speedily, for the shells of the enemy blew them 100 into shreds in a short time. The battle continued for hours, and we had been contending against five 100 times our number, yet, happily, without our adversary 20 obtaining command of our position, or most probably 5 I should have a different tale to relate than the one 5 lam at the present moment so agreeably engaged aq in. As it was, the Russian columns were so strong and numerous, and, moreover, they fought so bravely 100 and so well, that the issue at one period of the ~,,,, day was doubtful, for they charged our gu n s up to their ~',,,n' very mouths, and, what is more, they rushed in and 1 00" spiked some two or three of them, and bayonetted our , gunners who were opposed to them. This arose in con- 20, sequence of our force being so weak that we could nut 100' detach a sufficient number of infantry to protect the ar- 20 tillery, and, as the place where the battle happened was 5 a hill-side, covered with thick stunted brushwood, we could not ' limber-up' and retire before they were among us. Their triumph, however, was but of short duration, for, on a regiment or two moving up, otir bravo gunners dashed in again, and had the good fortune to recover their guns without other aid than their own. This one fact will show how fiercely raged the battle, for when the enemy came to such close quarters as to get into hand-to-hand encounters with artillery, you can imagine that the ' dogs of war' seemed indeed to be let loose, and that the ' demon of strife' strode triumphantly along, gloating over the carnage his nature exults in. Dreadful indeed was the fight ; far more severe than that of the Alma. "Our loss has been very sad ; three General officers killed, and three others wounded ; of other officers, 32 killed and 79 wounded, so that 100 will not cover our loss. Our entire loss we can yet hardly estimate, though it is reported that 3.000 of our army are hors de combat. The whole of the English force eng aged num bered 11,000, that of the Fren c h 6,000 , of whom they lost about 600, but my own opinion is that both these latter numbers are magnified. " From information derived from the prisoners, we found that a large portion of the forc e we h a d been; en gaged with had only arrived the day previously ro from Silistria, and that theyhadbe e l n n t r w eg o ar m d o t n o t t h la s e o p wth e e s ir march from the Princi palities. of the siege it goes on but slowly, but no doubt surely.grs You ask me whether a certain amount of app re h ens i o comes over in going into action. Most certainly there does, and I believe the very bravest man who lives experiences such, although, of course, in different de grees ; all that sort of thing soon wears off when once the mind is employed, and you are prevented from dwelling upon the danger you are exposed to. He must, however, be a heartless being indeed who can unmoved behold without awe the dread reality of war but I much question whether such a mortal exists. In answer to your inquiry respecting the locality of the surgeon in action, I may remark that when there is only one attached to the battery, he is net expected to keep close up, but so soon as he sees the position it has taken he should make arrangements as to where the wounded shall be brought, as well as where he is himself to be found. When the enemy is in force, it would be hard to say where one place was safer than another, 1 100 since a variety of circumstances may alter the state of 10c1 things, and h en ce it happens (unless a position be taken 2 0 up at a most inconvenient and unreasonable distance 20 from the great scene of operations), the surgeon cannot be said to be free from danger. Wherever duty calls 50 him, there is his right position ; yet let me entreat you 50 to hav e no f ear on my account, rather believing that the 100 Almighty is continually mindful of those of His crea- 100 tures who, with lively faith, wait on His providence for protection i n the hour of tr ial , and of danger."

EMOLUMENTS OF THE SCHOOL-KEEPER AND MARSHAL. The syndicate appointed to consider the duties and emoluments of the offices of school-keeper and university marshal respectively, with a view to their re-adjustment, if necessary, have reported to the senate : " That they find upon inquiry that the duties of the university marshal in term time have greatly increased during late years, and they are of opinion that those duties cannot now be satisfactorily discharged by one person. The syndicate recommended accordingly that the Vice-Chancellor be empowered to engage the ser vices of an assistant to the marshal during each of these terms in every year, at a remuneration not exceeding ten pounds a term. The syndicate are further of opinion that no change is required in the emoluments of the marshal, nor in the duties or emoluments of the school-keeper." A grace to confirm the above report will be offered to the senate, at the congregation on Wednesday, Dec. 6, 1854. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday.) MANCHESTER, Dec. I.—Tuesday's market was the most gloomy one we have had for some weeks, as well from existing depression as from a discouraging view regarding the future. We are not without other slightly encouraging symptoms in our market, such as indications of the approach of a better demand for several kinds of domestics, and an apparent pause in the decline of prices at large. These more favourable signs may be only illusory, as feared by many, but, for the moment, they certainly relieve in a small degree the despondent tone of our greatly de pressed market. We learn from merchants that the manufacturers of Germany have a sound trade ; and it is much in their favour that the price of rye, the staple food, is receding ; a fall equal to 6s. per qr. has just taken place. The previous extreme indisposition to buy yarns from our spinners for that country remains, how ever, unabated ; and a restoration of confidence will probably be a slow operation. NOTTINGHAM, Nov. 30.—A few houses in the hosiery trade state that they are doing a small increased busi ness ever the amount they had been doing for some weeks past, but to do this business orders are taken 'at unremunerating prices. LEICESTER, Nov. 30.—The Government orders and others for wrought knit hose, stout shirts, drawers, and gloves, besides a large quantity of warm fancy hosiery, have very much relieved our market and kept up em ployment. Stocks of ether kinds of goods are light ; and as there is firmness in worsted yarns, and spin ners well employed in contract or other orders, the operatives are tolerably well employed. Still, the high price of provisions bears very heavily on them, as no increase in their wages takes place. Cotton yarns have receded a little. There is but little doing in wools, growers not being willing to take less than 28s. per ton at present.—Leicester Journal. WOOLLEN TRADE. ( From the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.) LEEDS, Dec. I.—There has been no change in the state of the woollen market this week that requires any notice. On Saturday, as well as on Tuesday, the markets in both Cloth-halls were of a quiet order, and the transactions •f a limited character. Prices remain without change, and stocks are without material alte ration. The trade in the warehouses has been flat during the current week, but this is usual at this period of the year. During the month of November, we be lieve, the trade done in the warehouses has not been below an average of ordinary years. HUDDERSFIELD, Nov. 28.—The market was notably flat to-day. Everybody seems to be doing as little busi ness as possible. ROCHDALE, Nov. 27.—There has been a tolerably good demand for flannels to-day, at prices similar to those of the previous Monday. BRADFORD, Nov. 30.—Wools.—The same dulness we have reported for some time prevails. The con sumption of all kinds of combing wool is diminished, and farmers still hold at prices which cannot be obtained here. Yarns—This branch is suffering, a result, no doubt, produced by the unsound trading of a few who, in our days of prosperity, were induced t 9 betake them selves to a trade with which they were unacquainted, and to add to it undue extension of speculative adven tures. HALIFAX, Nov. 25.—1 n piece goods the market has been very dull to-day, and both in this and the yarn de• parttnent prospects are very gloomy and discouraging. In the long wool market the business is very small, and prices still exhibit a declining tendency. Short wools are firmer in price ; they are more asked for, and have become rather scarce. The Lord Chancellor has presented the Rev. Harvey Vachell, chaplain to the Queen's Prison, to the rectory of St. John's,Horsleydown ; and the Rev. Geo r g e Goodenough Illayter, to the rectory of Burnham- Sutton, Norfolk.

Importantcs ) aiust the fearful dangers of spurious imitation It is stated that the building and furniture of the club are insured. The Crown and Anchor Tavern is noticed by Strype, writing at the close of the 17th century, as " a large and curious house, with good rooms, and other conveni ences, it for entertainments." "Here (says Mr. Peter Cunningham, in his excellent 'Hand-book of London') Johnson and Boswell occa• sionally supped together. Here Johnson quarrelled with Percy about old Dr. Mouneey ; and here, when Sir Joshua Reynolds was maintaining the advantages of wine in assisting conversation, and referring particularly to himself, Johnson observed, I have heard none of those drunken—nay, drunken is a coarse word—none of those vinous flights.' " The house ceased to be a tavern in 1847. COURT OF LIEUTENANCY FOR THE CITY OF LONDON. A special general court of lieutenancy was held on Friday, at Guildhall, for the purpose of re ceiving an application from the Colonel of the Royal London Militia, requesting that the Commis sioners would offer to her Majesty the services of the regiment to be permanently embodied, to do gar rison duty, and to be ready with their active exertiox to perform any other duty which the Queen might be pleased to call upon them to execute. The court was most numerously attended. The Lei(' Mayor presided, supported by several of the aldermen, Sir James Duke, Bart., M.P., Colonel Sykes, Mr. Walter, M.P., Sir Arthur Poland, Mr. H ug h es Hughes, Mr. Thompson Hankey, Mr. Dobree, Mr. Dodd, Sir R. W. Carden, Mr. T. Hankey, &c., &c. Colonel WILSON said it was necessary that he should explain to the court the reason it had been spe 'ally summoned. He then read some correspondence which had passed between the Secretary at War and Lord Palmerston and himself, in which thanks were expressed for the offer he had made early in the year of the ser vices of his regiment. He stated that after having read the accounts of the late desperate battles in the Crimea, he felt it to be his duty to seize the earliest oppor tunity to ascertain the feelings of the officers of his regi ment on the question of offering their services as a per manently embodied regiment, considering that it should be a point of honour with the City of London that its regiment, instead of being the last, or amongst the la s t, ought to set the example of tendering . their services t o her Majesty in the present eventful crisis. Under these circumstances he had desired the adjutant to write to all the officers for the purpose of ascertaining how far they might be able and willing to give their services, in the event of the permanent embodiment of the corps, and he felt tie highest gratification in having it in his power to represent to the commission that he had received most satisfactory answers from all, with the exception of two young men who had only joined as Ensigns at the last training ; that the answers were not only in the affirma tive, but expressed the most unequivocal delight at the prospect of rendering active and able assistance in the great present emergency. The Colonel here read some of the letters amidst loud cheers. He had, he concluded by stating, upon receiv ing those answers, requested that a meeting of the com missioners might be called, and he had now the very high pleasure of placing the regiment at their disposal, and begging that they would deal with the application in the manner which appeared to them to be most eligible. (Cheers.) A long discussion ensued as to the mode of forming the resolution, and at length Mr. J. Walter, M.P., moved, and Colonel Sykes seconded, the motion—" That th e Lord Mayor be requested by the Court to offer to her Majesty the services of the Royal London Militia, to be embodied and to be employed in such way as her Ma jesty may be pleased to direct." The motion was then unanimously carried, and the meeting broke up. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. CUSTOM HOUSE, DEC. 2.

DESTRUCTION OF WHITTINGTON CLUB The Sir James !loss (barque), from Pernambuco to Lo n . HOT TS E. don, Oct. IG, lat. 6 N., long. 24 W. rn, S!* 1 , 1- ()clt fn. 14 The range of premises occupied by the members of this club, extending from Arundel-street, into Milford lane, and running almost parallel with the church of St. Clement's Danes, in the Strand, was totally destroyed by a fire, which broke out in the kitchen of the establish ment. about halfspast five o'clock yesterday morning. With this structure has fallen all that remained of the once famous Crown and Anchor Tavern—the favourite scene of metropolitan political meetings during the latter part of the last and the early years of the present ceo- tury. The fire was of a mast destructive character, scarcely allowing time for the escape of the few inmates sleep ing on the premises. Indeed, several female servants would in all probability have perished had they net succeeded in mounting the roof of the printing pre mises of the Illustrated London News, whence , after in curring great difficulty and danger, they at length des cended to the street in safety. The discovery was made by Mr. Brace, secretary to the club, who, with his wile and child, was sleeping in one of the first floor rooms looking into Arundel-street. He was awoke about 10 minutes to 6 o'clock by a loud crackling noise as of wood burning, and hastily arousing his wife, be ran up to the upper floor and called the servants, nearly 20 in number. The fire, which had evidently originated in the kitchen department on the ground floor, made great progress before Mr. Brace was aroused, and at this time it advanced so rapidly up the staircase and through the passages of the building, that before the servants could descend the whole interior was in flames. Only one man servant succeeded in following Mr. Brace down stairs, and this person, with Mr. and Mrs. Brace and their child, were the only parties who escaped by the entrance door. All that the other servants could do was to effect a rapid exit through one of the parapet win dows, and by making the circuit of the stone coping round the building got on to the roof of the adjoining warehouse, whence some were rescued by means of the Royal Society's fire escape, and others were lowered by the " lilt" attached to the premises. Scarcely one of these parties saved a particle of their clothing, and seve ral were almost in a state of nudity. The alarm having been given to the police, the engines were soon upon the spot, but, before they could be got into work, the fire had attained complete ascendancy over the building, and threatened destruction to much of the adjoining property, to the salvage of which the efforts of the brigade were chiefly directed from the first. The large premises lately re-erected by Mr. Ingram, and known as the Milford-house Publishing Establishment, on the east side of Milford-lane, directly faced the burn ing pile, and it was deemed necessary before 7 o'clock to force an entrance into this building, for the purpose of conveying hose to some of the upper storeys, so as to command the flame, which at this period extended across the narrow thoroughfare, and had a most alarm ing appearance. By this means a large volume of water was directed upon the most dangerous parts of the fire, and their virulence somewhat abated. A short time later the steam-floating fire engine was brought up from the station at Southwark-bridge to the bottom of Arundel-street, and the machinery being in full work an immense quantity of water was thrown upon the pre mises. But all the efforts of those engaged failed to arrest the fire, and first the roof, and subsequently floor after floor of the enormous building fell, carrying de struction with them, and ultimately leaving little more than the bare walls standing. Among the fire-engines, the officers of which particu larly distinguished themselves, was the little band in charge of the West of England. The deputy-foreman of this office, Barrow, and Wilkinson, an officer of the brigade, narrowly escaped being killed by the unexpected fall of a mass of ruins, beneath which they were engaged in their arduous duties. For some time their brother officers considered they were killed, and their escape unhurt is described to have been miraculous. The plate and money were dug out of the ruins about mid-day yesterday. Nothing else can be said to have been saved. Mr. Brace was very active in doing what he could for the servants of the establishment, who have lost everything, and are greatly to be pitied. The inconvenience to the club, which is said to number nearly one thousand members, will be very great. They have lost an extensive library of modern books, and some of the more polite members have also lost the wardrobes," in which they were accustomed to disport heinselves upon " gala nights" and "festive occasions," .or which this club has obtained a remarkable distinc- Wild Craikshahk (barque), with part cif bulwarks washed. away, Oct. 30, lat. 25 N., long. 31 W.
