EXPLOBION AND PROBABLE Lose Or Lira.—ln
a narrow thoroughfare, termed Windmill-street, the red-
dance of some of the most abandoned characters frequenting
the parish of Lambeth, stood a house and workshop belong-
ing to Mr. Evance, a fusee maker, in which dangerous goods
were daily manufactured. According to the statement of the
proprietor to his managing man, it seems that some boys
' employed by Mr. Evince were mixing some combustible
1 material; when they upset a pot filled with phosphorus
standing on the grate, and the consequence was that the
flames in a few minutes assumed a fearful aspect, and cow
I pletely enveloped several boys employed on the promises.
One or two of thorn ran out with their clothes to a perfect
blaze. The fire about their person, was extinguished.
Some were fortunately sashimi to return home, but dread-
fully burned. The other poor fellows were no badly
burned that they were compelled to be removed to
Guy's Hospital, where they remain without hopes of reco-
. very. Two engines of the London Brigade, from the
Waterloo-road station, were quickly on the spot, and the
fire was extinguished before the damage was very extensive.

recollected, lately impeached by his family in the English
law courts. The case has sines come before the Court of
Probate in Dublin, and happily resulted in a compromise.
The suit, in the latter instance, was "instituted by
Elialbetb Battey, otherwise Potts, to establish the
validity of a paper-writing, dated the 23rd of Fe
118430, as the will of John Manley Potts. The bdreZ sl3.
ants are Mr. Joseph Trumperant Potts, Mary POI* his
wife, and Elisabeth Letitia PotteL the demesne
in question the testator left all his of
sixonoe in the fund., estites in Vireseen7a, soda to
~,,,,,,,,eieg to two-thirds in the Beessiekris iferes-Letkr„
which produced about 4,0001. a year, to the plaintiff. The
will was impeached on the pound that it was not properly
executed awarding to the requirements of the statute, six!
that it was obtained by undue influence." After the use
had proceeded for some time on Monday, it was announced
that a compromise had been come to. The terms of the
settlement were not made known, but it was understood
that Elisabeth Battey has relinquished all interest in &tub-
ers's Nerso-Legier, in consideration of a sum of money.
