DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN ST. JAMES'S
STREET.
At the workmen were removing the old materials of some
houses at the corner of Little Hider-street, St. James's.street.
about half-past eleven o'clock yesterday morniug, three of
the houses fell in, sod buried in the ruins 18 persona who
were engaged in taking them down. Immediate assistance
was procured, and every exertion made to extricate the us-
fortunate star . Seven men and a boy were dug out and
conveyed to St.George'a Hospital: two of them, we regret to
state, were to all appearance deed; the rest hail sacred very
much. It appears the workmen had incautiously pulled away •
the interior of the houses without Lakin due precaution for
the support of the walls and the chininies. Sir Thos. Farquhar
sent to the officer nu duty at St. James's, requesting the as-
sistance of a file of men, and Captain Talbot, of the Col.!-
. streams, with the grestrat promptitude dispatched them to
• keep off the crowd /who were pressing upon the workmen,
and prevented them prueeedisig with their hansaue but peril-
ous task. The houses at the corner are in an equally den.
gernut soda. The premises were formerly the White Hart
public-house, behind which there is uuw a large manakin
building fur Sir Thomas Farquhar.

The new front to Westminster Hall, we ore in-
formed, is only an earnest of further improvemects.
The whole of that extensive building, it is siid, will,
be repaired; the ancient amines of the Saxon Kings
rind Judges are to be reriored to their proper niches;
and the armorial hearings of dot fiooder, RUFUS.
and his Knights, are to be replaced, and alai) those
