FIRE Nun Hotuoncr.—Last night between the
hours of eight and nine o'clock a fire of an alarming and
destructive character broke out on the premises belonging
to Meagre. Norma" and Ifedcalf, bookbinders, carrying an a
large bushiest in Leigh.place, Brook's.ntarket, and" from
what had transpired during the same morning there I.

some incendiary. The premises of the firm were of consi-
derable extent. Messrs. 'Korman and Medal!, it appeared,
employed between fifty and sixty workpeople, leen and
women, at the present time, who had been engaged getting
finished a great number of Bibles and pniyer•books for the
Society for Promoting Christian Knowleilge, and other
artablishotenta. The posed doer d the building was tilted
up with moat espousee reale§ and entimmieg inachinea,
whilst the upper floors bad several gas stoves fur beating
the workmen's tools, and the r.-arehousee contained a vast
quantity of Morocco. nd Russia • halberd great value. At the
usual hour the various hands were ordered to " knock off."
and in the course of a quarter et an hour or twenty minutes
the workpeople left, the foreman being the last, whet saw
that the ps was turned off from the metre in the basement.
As was the usual custom, he waited in the pump to see
' that the last burner had consumed all the surplus gas re-
' maiming in the pipes ruitZthrough the different parts of
the building. Being sMi ' from what he saw that the
pet was turned out of the building be attempted to lock the
front door on the left of the building, but had some difficulty
in so doing on amount of the luck having been tampered
with. He however left the premises, believing that all
was safe. After being assy nut more than a quarter of an
hour, a man named Ensiebrew had his attention directed
to the , tint boor at the works, by seeing a huge Daly et

A number of Inglis* were speedily (to the spot, and the
firemen succeftled in eventually exthiguiehing the tire, but
not until a serious amount of property was destroyed—
