AZOTHER GREAT WlLlit? NU L( TOOLEY-
sTRW-ITHIS DAY)

This (Thursday) morning, about eight o'clock,
Tooley•streei and Dockhead, Southwark, were the
same of another terrible fire, which up to noon had
atd in ruins property valued at several thomead
pounds, sad it was even thea impossible to tell for
bow many days the fire might last and what might be
the number of buil.hop jeopardised. This fire conixonneed
on the premises of Meninx Curling such Co., whereupon,
moms, from Tooley-street into thickhead. The buildings
ware batter known to the public as forming a portion of
wharf, whilst on the western side stood Nark
1k0W..11 wharf, only separated from the premises of
Yew. Curling by an extremely Darrow convoy.
' Thebnildisg in which the olimmater commenced was 300 or

tity of geode, iaelading S.OOO hales of jute, ice The pre-
mime termed Yank HOMO./ bad over casks of tallow
and green depoeitcd in them, and an immense quantity of
sores-sat oil. The eastern end was termed Hertley.wherf,
is which naphtha, oil, turpentine, resin, and other ignitable
Articles were stored. The lastnamed bu ildingn were erected
especially in a peculiar manner to resist, if possible, the
maim. of a fire breaking out near them. With all the pre-
cautions taken in building the wharf, heal jj not been for
the praiseworthy exertions rendered by the firemen, pro-
perty exteoding over mire of ground would have been

The discovery appears to have been mule by an officer of
the X division, who, eaonline to his own account, noticed
gooke pouring out of some of the windows facing Mark
Itrown's warehouses. The officer at once sent off to
the Tooley-street station of the fire brigade, and
also to the ruins of the great fire close by for
proper assistance to mole Immediately. During that
time men employed on the wharf and a number of
strangers, by great exertion, and at no little per-
sonal risk, managed to get out of the warehouses
severe! hundred bales of jute. but that which could
not be reached blazed up like a furnace in full
operatioe. Information was simultaneously dispatched
to the Southwark Water Company's offices, apprising the
secretary of the outbreak, and in the course of three or four
minutes Mr. Quick, jun., the engineer. assisted by Mr.
Reetler, the chief inspector, attended. The fire by
thin time had got the complete posseesiou of the
building containing the jute, and although it wee
dalight, the fire rose high, and spread a
light over the neighbourhood. Mr. Supermtkodent Cad --
ford, and Inspectors Reid, Moore, 'Eurpin, Mackintosh,
Mackenzie, and Mr. Superintendent Evans, of the Thames
police, had a number of boats moored along the front of the
wharves, manned by nearly 50 constables, to protect the
property of the sufferers. there being not Imo than 50 men
trying in boats to steal the salvage.
The engines of the parish, under Mr. Squires, and the
London Brigade, under Superintendents Ilendersoe and
logo, and engineers Perrver, Flinn, Gemini (superintendent I
of the steam engines), and Mr. Hodges, the distiller, with
his powerful hillside, were quickly on the spot
and at work, owing to the good supply of
water, and the judicious directions given by Mr.
Shand, of the firm of Shand and Mason, and Mr. Birk-
beck,* soo.io.law of the late Mr. Braidwood ; the land
steam engine and the powerful &ate were called into re-
quisition, but the tire for hours continued to extend, and at
one period it was feared that it would have communi-
cated with Mark Brown's wharf, &Weise the extensive pre-
mises of Messrs. Hartley, whoa name is so well
known in the shipping Mark. Fortunately smelt

maim under the heaps of jute, fr.c. Mr. William Hodson
and Mr. Lima two gentlemen who are assessors for various

and by their directions the extension of the fire was cut off

Wharves.

TM premises in which the disaster occurred were erected
as messily as 1N69 and 1860. They were of substantial
brick and timber.
The Royal Society's fire escape conductors were invert,
and rendered essential aid to the firemen. As to the origin
of the fire nothing is positive!) koowu, only that it cow
messed in 11 2 warehouse, rapidly extending to 1) 1, and
from thence to the other warehouser.

The property destroyed heing under floating policies lb
is impossible at present to tell what insurance offices will
be the sufferers.

Another fire broke out this morning in the
premises of Mr. J. Raby, situate in Oxendondoe 1, Lower-
road, Islington. The inmates having been around, they
escaped with difficulty, but the Imo could not he ex-
