FIRE IN TILE WEST INDIA DOCK.

Yesterday morning a little after twelve o'clock the neigh-
bourhood of Limehouse was much alarmed by the appearance
of ire towards the West India Export Dock. It was soon
discovered that the ship William and Alfred, outward bound
West Indlarnan, was on fire. The floating engine belonging
to the Dock was instantly brought to the spot, and several
other engines arrived soon after. By the great exertion of
the people belonging to other ships and the Doris, the ire
was prevented from communicating to any other vessel, or to
the warehouses ; but, we are sorry to say, the William and
Alfred was burnt to the water's edge, together with a great,
deal of property she hail taken on board as part of her cargo.
We have sot heard that any person was hurt. or how the ire
commenced. It was above two hours and a half before pie'
dames subsided.

BLANCHARD V. THE FAIT INDIA COMPANY.

Is this ease Mr. Bonne moved ilia( so snorts of an order
made in this ease might be dissolved, as directed that the
East India Company should pay to Mr. 114gOer a sum of
money for the passage of a nonuser of men. who were called
lascars, back to India ; and the Lammed Counsel also moved
that Mr Bagster should be ordered to return the sum of LW.
that hail been advanced as wages rot the timers, should be
returned to the Plaintiff.
In this case it appeared that Mr. Bagater, a gentleman well
known among the shipping interest, had gone out with a ship
and cargo for Mr. Blanchard, Iho owner, so the East Indies,
to dispose of both. Mr. Bagstcr bought the ship himself, and
it was navigated lionie by lien from India. When it arrived
hi the river Mr. Blanchard obtained possession of it on the
ground that it had been improperly sold, and a suit was dc-
pending in the Admiralty upon Ilse question. There was some
question ss to bow, sad by whom the seamen. who navigated
the vessel should be Fltili borne and their *ages to he paid.
Mr. Blanchard, es the bolder of the vessol, was 'ganged to
eater into an agreement to pay their wages, and also to pay
for the passage of the me. who it was stipulated should within'
three works be sent away. Elwin an application made to this
Court, it was allowed to Mr. Minter to send use; the men,
and an order was given that the East India Company, olio
%rid Ilse freight, should advance the enuswy for the passage to
Mr. Banter.
Mr.lbetura now said, that Mr. Roesler had titillated Isis
agreement is nut has ing "cot the men ow at the liapitationiir
the three weeks from the time at which the agreement was
made. As Mr. Blanchard was liable to the p ,vment of the
wages of the men as long as they iernaiued iu England, grid.

LINCOLN HORSE? FAIR.

Lincoln horse fair, relich began ou Monday the 42.1 ul.
timo, has bees well attewded ; buyers were ,serous, sad
sales have bees effected without difficulty, at better
prices than bid hers expected. Many foreigners have
Amended, and bought freely. Valuable horses wee, re-
fiver scarce, tool fetched very high prices ; one dealer on
Monday actually paid 6001. for four. Those of the sag
hind that were tokraltly earful were sold • good deal bet-
ter thus formerly. The black, or earl kind, seem to hare
improved in price more than others—it is supposed that
they were sold fifty per ceat• better thsit they were last,
rue. Inferior horses were as usual numerous, rota very
difficult of sate.—The sheep fair oti Thursday eras not a
large one, but was well attended by buyers, and eery few
if any stork were left macula. The prices were the Witt
that have been reported this yrar, and better eves than
had been expected, notwithstanding the •bnorlarrire of
keeping. 110,11 sold from Us. to 29r.; the heat price was
335. Of Sheathogs the show was small. mod the prices
nearly the same as hugs, viz., about 275. to 30.. The
fair has been more favourable to the sellers of stock than
•ay sim-lar market fur many mouths past. l'he prices
of good '.iorset, and fur sheep and horned cattle, continued
looking upward throughout, sad almost every head was sold.
As usual there was a great attendance of pickpockets sod
bad•aisposed people, and we regret tu.say, • very respertaitle
jobber, named Newton, of Hollerach Fen Eerie, fell under
their machination and became a severe sufferer, having
'his pocket boot oaten, containing no less • sum Maio
100/. The poor mau did uut discover the theft lilt he
• had drawn his purchases in sheep, sod was proceeding to
deliver cash far 600 head, whe• he foetid out his shocking
lofts. A reward of 2001. was shortly alter advertised, by
handbills, fur a return of the money if fouled. hut the
finders have got off undiscovered. There were 1.1001. of the
Wiabech bank, 6110/, of the Bi*tsu beak (Claypene.), and itlo/.
of the Sleafora bank, which poraday may lead to detecting
the abstracters of this ill gotten proprriv.--Another person,
named Enderby, had lua lure lott Melted of IN. 10s. which he
had just received fur • busse sold by him in tie Street. He di.-
covered h,s loss own after, hut the thief escaped detection.
A respectable person, while standing on the steps of • shop,
was pushy,/ against by two or three (elem.., and was robbed
in a trier of mote than 301. Oue farrier lost his treat coat
in a @angular manner: whilst in the idlecp pens he observed

he &leaded himself tratiallied the soldiers that he could be
so other than the Pretender. Otte of them fired at him:
Mackenzie fell, mad with his last breath he exclaimed, " You
have killed your Priucc!" This (estrous sacrifice, sillipend-
ed fur the time all purruit, sod afforded an opporturrity to
the unfortunate Charles to escape from the hands of his
enemies. It is well known that Kennedy, who repeatedly
exposed his life to save that of his Prince just named, and
who, though meats and poor, despised the reward of 30,000 L
which was offered for the person, dead or alive, of deo Royal
fugitive, was afterwards hanged at Inverness for stealing a

This was an App, xl hum the Cumin of Session (Scotland).
The AttnetterGenerAl and Mr. Wetherell were beard fur
Ibe Appellant; and Mr. Sugdeo for the Respondent.
Further argument postponed.
Lord KENYON mitred that the Select Committee on

SUPPLY OF STATIONERY TO PUBLIC OFFICES
(IRELAND).
The Earl of DARNLEY said, that in the last
Session he had given notice of a motion relative to
the espeuditure of stattouery in the public offices in
Ireland; hr was on that occasion assured by his
Majesty's Goverirgeni, that an inquiry should take
place. He wished to know from the Noble Earl
opposite (Liverpool) if that iore-tigation had taken
place, and if it had, what was the result ?
The Earl Li LIVERPOOL said that such an inves-
tigation had taken place, but the further inquiry
had been stopped for a short time on account of the
change of the Gaveritnarnt in Ireland, but it was
again in progre.s. The first question which it had
been neces.sry to inquire into was, whether corrup-
tion had crept into the serving of the offices with
stationery; a report had beau made, declaring that
the corruption did not exiat. The second question,
whether the stationery was not furnished at too high
a vire, was now under inquiry, ant when concluded
he would have I/0 objection to.lay the report before
their Lordships.
The Earl of DARNLEY said, he acquitted the
person chiefly concerned in furnishing the its.
tionely of the charge of corruptor; ; but he ob-
jected to the patent, which gave him the exclusive
right of furnishing it, which, he itiought,ought to
be abolished, and laid °pro to competition. as he
upderstood it was in this country. If the patent was
not sbolislied, he should think it his duty to Wog
the subject before their Lordships.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL txplaused.
DIVORCE.

Toe Bid of Ludgate[ give notice that he
would, on Nloisday next, move the aecuud reading
of Sir J. M. Doyle's Divorce Bill.
LORDS OF THE ADMIRALTY.
Viscount Al ELY! LLB moved the second reading
of the Bill for reducing the number of Lords to
form a Board from three to two.
The Earl of DARNLEY swished to know from the
Noble Viscount, whether he lissl been reported
truly in what he sold last Maio, that the reduction
of two Lords, so far from tending to ecouomy, would
add to she expvtiditure of the country.
Viscount MELVILLE said, he had uo hesitation in
spying that lie did express himself to that effect,
and he was sure lie would I:ollVltiCie their Lordships
that it was the cu•e. A few mouth buck he 'resit
to the $ I dock yards, and, oil examination in
them, found that there were several expenses that
might be curtailed. mid which it was intended that
Board should inquire taro; but the umber of

SMITHFIELD cLue CATTLE SHOW.

On Friday and Saturday Mr. Sadler's yard in Cos-
well-street, was open for the inspection of one of the
most numerous and well-selected group, of fat cattle,
sheep and pigs, which, in the opinion of our reporter.
the premiums offered by the Smithfield Club have
ever been able to draw together, in the last twenty •
four years.

The company who attended ware highly respect-
able, amongst whom the Marquis of Exeter was no-
ticed, and many others of the known patrons of agri-
cultural improvement ; and the animals, and the deci-
sions as to the prizes, seemed to give unusual satisfac-
tion. The only matter regretted was, a great falling
off this year in the attendance of farmers and country
gentlemen ; but many of whom, it was hoped, had
merely deferred their journey and attendance at the
show and dinner until this day.
At the head of every animal a label announced its'
owner, and feeder and its breeders' names, its age,
food, and every other particular; besides which, tin
labels of a larger size announced the adjudication of
the prizes, amounting to 120 guineas, as follows,
viz.—
