THE GREAT FIRE IN SOUTHWARK.
London, England, 1865-07-05

LATEST` PARTICULARS.

Not only were the two immense blocks of ware-
houses seemly destroyed in the above fire, with the excep-
tion of the soeth-eastern corner, but the front portions and
roofs of at least a dozen boners in Cutle-street, as well as
the roofs of several hones in Southwark-bri4emed,
including the Phoenix livery stables, were penally dm-
troyad by the falling walls of the warehouses, and the
quantity of burning materials blown on to them. At 11
o'clock this morning there was still a large man of fire on
the premien, and two of the steam engines were kept con-
stantly playing upon it. The thoroughfares along South-
wark-street and Castle-street are rendered impassable for
either carriage or foot traffic, consequent upon their being
covered for several hundred yards with the bricks and pieces
of timber thrown out from the burning premises during the
oonfisgration, as from a volcano.

The south-eastern corner of one of the warehouses pre-
sents a singular contrast to the rest of the building. This
porticos of the premises had been built on • new fireproof
principle, upon brick arches filled in with patent concrete,
and stands insect, while every other portion of the building
has been destroyed. flo far as the preservation of a build-
ing is coooerned, the test has been well tried, but whether
supposing this portion of the building had been filled with
goods, they would not have been destroyed or rendered
worthless loy the intense hest to which they would have
heed subjected, yet remains to be proved.
The whole of the premises destroyed had been recently
built is the most substantial way, sad fitted with all the

Duchies of Sleswig and Holstein ; but has declared
that it is not impossible she might do so in reference

thirty-six members, representing the different poli-

Duchies of Sieswig and Holstein, wonid be admitted
by him as the basis for an arrangement, but that

This was as action brought by the plaintiff, who carried
an businessat a baby Warn warshourc, enariescireet,

cover beck the purchase money of the above business, gad
also oompenaation in damages oa the ground that the de-
fendant wilfully and fraudulently misespresested the tek.
bp, ten. The &deadest pleadedguilty.
Mr.*. Chambers, Q. 0., and tt were counsel for
the plaintiff ; Mr. Serfeent O'Brien, Mr. Berjeant Parry,
and Mr. Beasley for the defendant.
It appeared from the evidence, of the plaintiff that he was
desirous of obtaining a business for his wife in London, and
in 000rrequence of what be heard he wart to the defendant,
who was then carrying on business at the premiaea in quire-
, tine. The defendant repudiated the trade as being one of
, great value ; that the customers were " fret class" cus-
tomers, the greater portion of them being ladies of title,
end that the amount of takings win 1,6001. per annum.
The books were given to the plaintiff, and were examined
by him and an acenuntent and they represented that
amount. Accordingly, the plaintiff agreed to porehthe the
• bunions, stock, fixtures, Ac., for the sum of 0061. 40.
, The premises were entered upon by the plaintiff and his
wife but it was soon maintained that the takings wore
nothing like those repreeented by the defendant, for they
! did not amount to more than about 101. per month. It
, was aleged that the defendant had been guilty of hand,
inasmulch as he knew the business was not doing anything
, like the trade asserted, and that the books were " made "

The defence wee a denial of any misrepnwentatioo. It
was alleged that the defendant bad told nothing but the
truth, that the books were regularly and properly kept, and
proved that the boon was doing the amount of trade that
was alleged. The fault laid on the part of she plaintiff and
hie wife, who knew nothing of the business. It was not
deeded that the business wee a bed one at present.
The ease occupied the greater portion of two days, and
