FIRE IN A COTTON WASTF
two o'clock on Saturday mr
Clarence street station, that,
Mr. Martin Rourke, Albion st, rn,
was on fire. Several engines were imm,,cliatcly despatches
to the spot, and, upon their arrival, fl In\es were bursting
through seven or eight windows from the cellar, in which
were stored 150 tons of cotton waste. The flames reached
half way across a small street, on the opposite side of which
was a row of cottages. The cellar was art hed and fire-
proof, the arches being supporte i by pillars, which were
so intensely heated that in ten minutee they would have

ree were brourt

back of the premises from a small street, and three others
from Albion street, and directed into that part of the building
looking into the main yard. The fire extended through a
shaft into the second and third storeys; which were also
filled with waste. Ladders were raised, the windows
broken, and, by the exertions of the firemen, in three hours
the fire was extinguished. Two men were, however, left in
charge of the premises. The inhabitants of the adjoining
cottages removed all their furniture. The damage sustained
is supposed to be about £560, and the origin of the fire to
be spontaneous combustion. The building belongs to Mr.
Fernley.
THE DUBLIN CRIMEAN BANQUET.—The time and place
for the Crimean banquet have been at length determined
on. An offer having been made to the committee by Mr.
Scovel, the lessee of the government stores at the 'Custom-
house, to place that large and now vacant building at their
disposal ; and a sub-committee appointed for the purpose
having reported favourably on the propOsed site as an eligi-
ble one, the offer has been thankfully accepted ; and the
time for holding the banquet has been accelerated by a coin,
munication from the Lord Lieutenant, stating that unless it
took place by the 23rd instant, be could not be present at it,
as he was about leaving for England. The committee have
accordingly intimated to his Excellency that preparations
could be made for h?lding the banquet on the 21st, 22nd,
or 23rd instant, according as it might suit his Excellency's
—,ence. It is not expected that the Custom-house
4utholittea will withhold their permission to have Mr.
Scovel'a offer curried out; and as the clam subscribed
amounts at present to about £2,500, and but a small portion
of it need be expended in preparing the banquet room, the
original idea can be carried out on a comparatively grand
scale. The committee have come to the resolution that all
these who had served in the late campaign, and who are
decorated with Crimean medals, whether connected with the
army, royal navy, marines, pensioners, or constabulary, or
any other branch of her Majesty's service, should be equally
t
uponelig the itiblefor invitations at the forthcoming banquet. A de-
putation was also nominated, consisting of the. Right Hon.
Lord Talbot de Malahide and other gentlemen, to wait
