A fire broke out on Friday morning, at ono
o'cleck, in the second floor of the sugar-house of Mr.
Trollopc, Back-lane, St. George's in the East,
which burned with incredible fury. At half.past
two the whole of the building fell in with a tre-
mendous crash, eLecpting the north front, breaking
all the windows and fi.oing considerable damage to
an adjoining house. Much fear was entertained
for the safety of Mr. Johnson's timber-yard adjoin-
ing, from the anent quantity of flukes of lire which
fell into the yard. But the great exertions of the
firemen prevented a further extension of the confla-
gration ; the loss is considerable. Happily no lives
were lost.

The Fury, Captain Parry, and the Ueda, Capt.
Lyon, rcuched the Nore on Thursday afternoon from
Northfleet, and are expected to sail this day fin.
Hudson's Bay. They are to be accompanied by the
Nautilus transport to the latter place, which con-
vcys stores of every description for their use, so as
to render it unnecessary for them to consume any of
their sea stock.
If the reader is afflicted with Fistula, Piles, Cl'
Strictures, we would ask, has Le ever beard of the
late Martin Van Butchell, who used to treat these
complaints in a way peculiar to himself; and to
effect cures almost universally without having re-
course to either Cutting, Caustic, or Confinement,
which is the usual practice ? We find his son D.
D. Van Batchell, surgeon, accoucher, who resides
at Ni. 48, South-Arcet, Berkeley-square, continues
to perform cures of the most dangerous cases by the
same method, and is as completely sticeessfUl.—
Both rich and poor, who are thus afflicted, will do
well to observe he requires no remuneration until
they are satisfied a cure has been perfimmed ; in
fact, the poor are relieved gratis if respectably
recommended.

Report o/ the Lordi on Foreign Trade.—The re-
port of the Lords' Connniitte, appointed to enquire
into the means of extending and securing the foreign
trade of the country, presented to the house on the
11th ult. is just printed. It is a document of con-
siderable interest, and contains the evidence of 27
witnesses, which occupies upwards of 300 folio pages.
The inquiry pursued in this report is " into the
state of the British commerce with Asia, including
85 well that which is carried on with the territorial
possessions of the honourable East India company,
as with the inch!' endent states, in the same part of
the globe." The report, in conclusion, gives the
following important inthrmation :—" The committee
have been inthrmed by the members of his Majesty's
government, who are members of the committee,
that a bill was prepared to be submitted to parlia-
ment in the course of last session for extending the
private trade between India and foreign Europe;
and that the introduction of such a bill has only
been postponed in consequence of the inquiries de-
pending in parliament connected with Asiatic com-
merce.''

A King's Itlesscnger was despatched to Ports-
mouth last week, for the purpose of conducting
Gentilini (formerly valet to Buontiparte), and Ma-
dame Julie (femme de shamble to Mad. Bertrand),
to Cuxhaven. After eleven weeks passage at sea,
these unthrtunate persons (with an infant child),
were detained ut Spithead for three weeks, without
either being permitted to laud, or to see any person
from the shore, except an agent of government. No
reasoa has been assigned fur this inhospitable con-
duct.

There have been but few fresh arrivals of Wheat from the
coasts of Essex, Kent. and Suffiilk, since Monday, consequently
there was a little better demand for fine Wheat, which obtained
a ready sale at MondAy's prites, but the inferit r qualities remain
stationary, without much demand. Barley was brisk in ERIC, and
full as dear as on Monday. The demand for Oats was but
trilling, but there being only a few fresh samples at market, that
article was not cheaper. In other articles there is no alteration.
