Chislamr-t. • The flames were first discovered by the night patrole
on the road, issukug from several ricks of hay. The watchman im-
niedietely gave an alarm, and fin innately with the assistance of
several of the neighbouring gentry, succeeded in awakening the
family of Mr. Biggs, and rescuing them from -their perilous situa-

quantities of hay, straw, &c. were deposited, besides several
other adjoining buildings; and at one time, the whole yard, con-
taining sixteen ricks of bay, straw, corn, &c. &c. were in one conti-
nual blaze; which gave a grand but terrific appearance. The atmos-
phere was completely illuminated, and the various fire engines from
their different stations, throughout the metropolis, were put in re-
epiWtiou, and proceded in the direction of the fire ; many of them
on arriving at the turnpike at the Lower Road, Deptford, not being
able to go any further, put up their horses, and several of the fire-
men went to the fire. The fire had been burning upwards of two
Lours before any assistance could he procured, and consequently had
got so much a-head as to preclude aU possibility of extinguishing it.

from Lewisham, Bromley, Sze. were extremely active on this occa-
sion in protecting the property of the inhabitants in the adpieing

Ws are happy to add, that no lives were lost.
