Charing cross, has just published a very excellent
map of the seat of war in Denmark. The proposed boun-
dary lines of the Danish, German, and neutral powers, are
very clearly shown, and the map, therefore, will be found
of great service at the present period.

deplorable cause of death by fire °courted in the Borough to
the wife of Mr John Beckett, late relieving officer of the
West London Union. It appears that the unfortunate crea-
ture, who is not more than 30 years of age, was alone in
the house at the time, with the exception of her family,
consisting of five small children, and having newly taken
the premises, she, in the absence of her husband, put the
children safely to bed, and then descending to the lower
part of the house, began to put the place in order,
taking a lighted candle with her. Her cries having
alarmed the neighbours, end the police observing the flames
through the basement windows, they got into the premises,
and there they found the poor woman in a complete bicac
from head to foot. As promptly as possible the fire was
extinguished, but the sufferer had ceased to exist. Medical
assistance was called in and other efforts used, but it was
found to be a hopeless case, life having been destroyed by
the fearful element. It is supposed (the candlestick being
found on the floor) that she had set it thoughtlessly down
and her dress having caught the flame it ignited, and hence
the calamity. The requisite information has been sent to
Mr Payne, the coroner, relative to the unfortunate occur-
rence.
