THE FIRE IN FINSBURY'.

We stated yesterday that a fire, attended with
considerable destruction of property, broke out in the
premises of Mr. F. bPNeill and Co., Patent Felt Works,
situate in Lamb's Passage, Buakill-row, Finsbury. By
great and continued exertion the firemen were enabled to
obtain a complete mastery over the flames, but net before
six o'clock in the evening, when half the factory was de-
stroyed. It is understood that the firm is insured.
