500 men, has now attained a high state of efficiency.
Since the corps were first enrolled more than 1,200 men
have enlisted; a large number of whom have volunteered
into regiments of the line, and it has also supplied a
great many men to the Norfolk .

in the Forbury, Reading, by the• Adjutant, Captain
Lynch, by whom they were called on to volunteer for

each. Their de-tination ii said to be Gibraltar. Scarcely
more than 100 will remain of the entire regiment who
hare not volunteered. .

FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE AT CITATITA3I.—A
serious fire, unhappily attended with loos of life, broke
out at Brompton, oliathani, about twelve o'clock on
Wednerday* night.. It commenced in the house of a
grocer named Flemming, whose wife and child were
rescued from the burning building by a party of invalid
soldiers, but the servant girl,.-Efary Taylor, lost her
presence of mind, and perished in the flames. Flemming
himself escaped with difficulty. The fire soon spread to

the premises of Mr. Passty, tohaeconiA ; Mr. Chapman,
Corn factor - Mr. Hills, saddler ; Mr. Ramage, baker ;
and a small house occupied as a lodging-house, were all
in flames, and were eventually destroyed, The cause of
the fire is not knomn. All the eufitrers were insured
. with the exception of Mr. Ramage. .
