Bailin, fire-work maker, carrying on basin's' in teat th.-
reughfare, by which two or more lives were sacrificed, and
esr ral path s severely injured. At the time of the cala-
mity, 13 persons were on the premises, when a loud 'solo
den wee heard, which blew the tiles off the roof, forced
the winnows out, both back and front, lifted the fl wrings
from 'hair bearings, and eta two children sleepit g in the
first floor out of th.• window, and an immense r set of flame
issued from the building. The inhabitants hastened towards

burning mass, bat in spite of which the flames continued to
weed, and it wee not until the house wee gutted that the
firemen could get the mastery over the conflagration. That
haring at length been scoomplishod, the firemen were in-
formed that several persons were supposed to be in the rains.
After some time sprat in turning over the ruins the firemen

to be removed to the hospital. Upen calling together the
parties who worked end lodged in the premises, it was found
