Total Destruction of the Portland Bazaar
and German Fair by Fire.

The most extensive conflagration that has oc-
curred for a considerable time past at the west-end

part of London commenced about ten o'clock yester-
day (Sunday) forenoon, and was entirely extin-
guished at five a'cicck.
Ihe building iu which the fire commenced was
termed the Portland Bazaar and German Fair. It

stood in Langbam-place, Regent street, and had
another entrance in Great Portland-street, St.

Marylebone. The building covered a space of
ground nearly 1,000 feet square. It was only two
floors high, but the property contained in the place
was more than an ordinary observer would imagine.
For instance, the Titian and other large pictures, to
which so much praise has been awarded, were in one
portion of the bazaar. The front entrance in Lang-
ham-place was rented by Mr. H. M. Whitaker, the
well-known importer and exhibitor of foreign birds,
inse&s, and reptiles, whose collection formed a
great attraction of this favourite and fashionable

lounge.
The Bazaar, as most public places of amuse-
ment are, was built in a manner to afford the great-
est space. Rows of massive iron columns rose
trom the base, and upon the top of these, stretched
along the immense width of the building, were
cast-iron girders. Extending towards the top,
and which formed the beautiful roof, were
placed vertically another row of iron pillars,
and upon them rested an equal number of
iron girders, as in the floor below. Each available
space in this large range of premises was fitted
up at great expense with fancy shops and stalls,
which had been presided over by 40 or 50 young
females, all of whom have been thrown out of em-
ployment, and those who merely rented the counters
or shops have been bereft of ail their property ; and
as far as at present can be ascertained not a single
stall-keeper or exhibitor was insured for a penny.
The front entrance, as before stated, was in the

THE ROUPELL FORGERIES CASE.

At the Essex Assizes, which are to be opened
to-morrow at Chelmsford, the case in connection
with the Roupell forgeries, in which such extraor-
dinary disclosures took place during the memorable
trial last year at Guildford, will enter upon another
phase. Mr. Roupell, it will be recollected, was
born before the marriage of his parents, and is con..
sequently illegitimate, his younger brother, Mr.
Richard Roupell, being the heir at law of the de-
ceased Mr. Roupell ; and in consequence of the dis-
closures of the forgeries of his brother, he now
seeks to impeach the validity of the securities held
by mortgagees of the estates left by his father at the
time of his death,,and which were taken possession
of and mortgaged by the convict Roupell. The
first case that will arise, and which will th
e
attention t 6
attention of the court at Chelmsford, will be in the
shape of an action for ejectment brought by Mr.
Richard Roupell against Messrs. Hawes and others,
the mortgagees in possession of the valuable estate
in Essex, called the Great Warleigh estate. The
case has been made a special jury case, and is ap-
pointed for trial on Thursday next, before Mr. Baron
Bramwell, the senior judge of the assize. Mr. Ser-
geant Shee, with Mr. Luch, Q.C., and Mr. Joseph
Brown, instructed by Messrs. Linklater, are spe-
cially retained, and will appear as counsel for Mr.
Richard Roupell, the heir-at-law. Mr. Bovill,
Q.C., with Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Garth,
will appear as counsel for the defendants, the mort-
gagees. The defence to be set up is one that will
result in the elucidation of some extraordinary facts.
Mr. Roupell, the self-convicted forger, will be again
brought up by habeas corpus and put, it is stated,
in the witness-box, and undergo a more searching
examination than he has hitherto been subjected to,
the assumption being that his avowals of the for-
geries are a fabrication; and evidence will be ad-
duced to show that the signatures of the deceased
to the several documents were genuine, whatever
mental incapacity or coercion had existed or been
used to obtain them. The action is expected to
occupy several days. By far the more important
case, however, as to the value of the property—
whatever may be the result of this trial—will take
place at the ensuing Croydon assizes, in the action
brought by Mr. Richard Roupell against the Equi-
table Insurance Office for the recovery of the ex-
tensive property called " The Roupell Park Es-
tate," at Streatham, and in which the same learned
counsel are engaged. The case will also be tried
before a special jury in the second week in August.

CRINOLINE ACCIDENT.--A. berious accident took
place the day before yesterday at Rouen, owing to a crino-
line. A lady was walking down the Rue Grand-Pont, when
a gentleman's foot got entangled in her long dress as he was
passing, and caused her to stumble. Her foot caught in the
hoop of her crinoline, and ahe came down with such violence
as to break her leg.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was rather a large supply of foreign stock on offer
in to-day's market, in, for the most part, fair condition.
From our own gracing districts, the arrival of beasts
fresh up this morning was seasonably extensive as to num-
ber, and in good condition. Although the attendance of
buyers was rather large, the beef trade was in a sluggish
state, and, in some instances, prices gave way 2d per Sibs.
However, a few prime Scots and crosses realised 5s per
81bs. At the close of business a clearance was not effected.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire comprised 2,400 shorthorns, ice ; from
other parts of England, 700 various breeds ; from Scotland,
70 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 100 oxen and heifers.
There was an unusually large supply of sheep in the pens.
The quality of most breeds was good. The mutton trade
was somewhat heavy, at a decline in the quotations of 2d
per 81bs. The highest figure for the best Downs was 5s
per Sibs.
Good and prime lambs moved off steadily, at full cur-
rencies. Otherwise, the lamb trade was in a sluggish state,
on former terms. Prices ranged from 5s 4d to 6s 4d per
Blbs.
We have to report a dull sale for calves, the supply of
which was moderate, at Thursday's quotations.
The pork trade was heavy. In prices, however, no
ohange took place.

DEATH FROM FIRE.

Yesterday morning Mr. H, R Waithew resumed, at ele
Three Crowns Tavern, East-road, City-road, an inquiry
relative to the death of Eliza Thornhill, who was burnt to
death under very horrible circumstances.

Deceased was found burnt to a cinder at ten o'clock on
last Tuesday fortnight, the room of the house in which she
lived at, No. 8, Frances-street, East-road, being in flames.
She was so blackened and charred that the doctor who was
called in said that she resembled, as she was seen reclining
against the bedstead, one of the figures of the recumbent
blacks in the Crystal Palace. Every vestige of clothing had
been burnt off, and the steel hoops of her crinoline were
lying in circles on the floor around her body.
A witness, named Sarah Field, swore that a waiter with
whom deceased was known to cohabit, had been seen by her
to leave the house at half-past 9 o'clock, and that ho had not
since been seen.

Upon the resuraption of the inquiry, however, William
Partridge said that he was present when the man in ques-
tion returned to the house on the evening of the fire. He
was apparently quite ignorant of what had happened, and
when told of it would have fallen to the ground in a faint if
he had not been supported. The woman Field, who appeared
to have had some quarrel with him, came up, and said that
he was at the bottom of the deceased's death, and that he
should see how she would do for him at the inquest. She
said that, after a deal of abuse, in which she did not mention
that she had seen him leave the house about the time of the
fire.

Sarah Field, recalled, said that she had not bad any row
with the man i❑ question on the evening of the fire. On
being confronted with the witness Partridge she admitted,
however, that she had had some words, but she did not call
that a row, as he said nothing. (Laughter.) She further
admitted that she did not see the man actually coming out
of the house just before the fire was first seen, but that he
was only coming from the direction of the door. She now
believed the fire was all an accident.

Henry Clinton, waiter, said that he left the house at 8
o'clock on the morning in question. Deceased was not then
in the room, and he believed she was not sober. She was
smoking. He had not assaulted the deceased, but she had
fallen and injured herself.

The jury returned a verdict—That deceased was found
burnt to death in a certain room, and that she had set her-
self on fire while smoking, she being at the time under the
influence of drink,

The Great Omninational Derby Race.

(From Punch.)
This great event has naturally attracted an immense
amount of interest, not merely on account of the fame of the
competitors, but because of the enormous value of the
stakes. For the benefit of the unlearned, we may state that
these included " Peace and General Prosperity," and when
we add that " Civilisation and National Advancement"
also formed a portion of the prize to be contended for, we
need hardly say another word about its vast importance and
its great intrinsic worth. The following was the latest
betting on the course :-
3to 2 on John Bull's British Constitution
(offered)
10 to 1 against Louis Napoleon's French Empire
15 to 2 „ Victor Emmanuel's United Italy
(taken)

50 to 1 „ Czar Alexander's Quiet Poland
100 to 1 „ Austria's Hungarian Indepen

dente

1000 to 1 ~ Prussia's Pigheaded King Wil-
liam
10,000 to 1 „ Abe Lincoln's War Policy
10,000,000 to 1 „ American Re- Union (offered)
The Yankee lot for some months had been knocked out
of the betting, and indeed there was no chance that animals
so over-wi,rkeu could ever win a decent place. We warned
their friends long since that such must prove the fact, and
they have no cause to reproach us at finding our words
true. Still, with all their brag and bounce, the Yankees
have good stuff in them; and if they wenn but pay more
attention to their training, there really is no knowing what
they might not win. So far as we can trace his pedigree
straight back to John Bull's stables, it is clear that Brother
Jonathan comes of a good stock; and although of late the
breed has terribly deteriorated, still we could lay a finger on
a specimen or two of what in Yankee phraseology is known
as real grit:
The race has been so talked about that all its details must
be known, and we shall add but few remarks to the dry
official statement of the " coming in," which, as all along
had been expected, was as follows :

DEATH FROM CHLOROFORM.

Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at King's College
Hospital, touching the death of John Henry Lawrence, 38,
a clerk, who expired whilst under the influence of chloro-
form, administered for the purpose of an operation, on Sa-

turday last.
George Lawrence, brother of the deceased, said his brother
had always expressed a dislike to chloroform, and that he
believed it was administered against his wish and that of
his friends. He was a very nervous and excitable man, and
he was suffering from a disease of the heart; and one of the
surgeons at the hospital had told deceased so. He felt con-
fident he must have he over-persuaded to submit to the
influence cf chloroform.

Wm. Fergusson, house-surgeon at King's College Hos-
pital, said that deceased was an in-patient, and was suffering
from fistula. He had performed an operation on him in Ja-
nuary last, when he used chloroform successfully. On Sa-
turday last it was administered, in his presence, by one of
the pupils with the utmost care and caution. He took it at
first without any particular symptoms. He became a little
incoherent, and was convulsed. He was then allowed to
breathe a little fresh air. The chloroform was again admi-
nistered, the convulsive action still continuing, when sud-
denly he ceased to breathe, the pulse at the wrist ceasing
about the same time. The usual remedies to resuscitate him
were used, but in vain—the poor man was dead. He never
offered any objection to the chloroform in his presence. He
was satisfied the chloroform was the same in quantity and
strength, and used in the same way as on the former occa-

sion.-He was not aware that he was suffering from disease
of the heart, or any other complaint which would make the
use of chloroform dangerous.

Arthur J. Pollock, house physician, said he made a post
mortem examination of the body on Monday. There was
some disease of the heart and lungs, but not sufficient to ac-
count for death. He had no doubt he died from chloroform.
After hearing further evidence,

The jury returned a verdict that the deceased died from
chloroform properly administered.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,--1 shall feel greatly obliged if you will kindly per-
mit me to call attention to a subject which seriously affects
the health of the public at large. I allude to the dangerous
and extensive adulteration of almost everything we eat and
drink. Anyone doubting this has only to go to the Food
Museum, at South Kensington, and there will be seen the
deleterious ingredients with which we are all slowly poi,oned,
openly displayed. Our tea is mixed with carbonate of cop-
per, carbonate of lead, Venetian red, Prussian blue, Dutch
pink, and black lead; chalk and marble are mixed with
sugar; red lead, red ochre, and brick dust with cocoa;
copper in pickles, and ground glass in snuff. No wonder
that the doctors are so often puzzled as to what ails their
half-poisoned patients; they know no more what has brought
about the symptoms than the man in the moon, So they
sum up in the old way by saying, "The system is out of
order," and send in physic. Now comes the question--
are there any means for checking these really dangerous
practices ? One would think that if the vendors of poisoned
provisions were punishable by law there would soon be an
end of them, and if cheap and simple tests could be brought
into general use an enormous demand would reward the in-
ventors, who would deserve well of their country.

I have said nothing about the mere cheating adultera.

tions, such as linseed in pepper and sawdust in coffee,
which gives it that peculiar woody taste so often observed.
Now, although there is nothing poisonous in sawdust, it is
not agreeable to have one's coffee flavoured with a worn-out
chair or an old bedstead.—l have the honour to be, Sir,
your most obedient servant, GEORGE ELLIS.

DEATH FROM FIRE.

Yesterday morning Mr. H. It Walthew resumed, at tie
Three Crowns Tavern, East-road, City-road, an inquiry
relative to the death of Eliza Thornhill, who was burnt to
death under very horrible circumstances.

Deceased was found burnt to a cinder at ten o'clock on
last Tuesday fortnight, the room of the house in which she
lived at, No. 8, Frances-street, East-road, being in flames,
She was so blackened and charred that the doctor who was
called in said that she resembled, as she was seen reclining
against the bedstead, one of the figures of the recumbent
blacks in the Crystal Palace. Every vestige of clothing had
been burnt off, and the etcel hoops of her crinoline were
lying in circles on the floor around her body.
A witness, named Sarah Field, swore that a waiter with
whom deceased was known to cohabit, had been seen by her
to leave the house at half-past 9 o'clock, and that he had not
since been seen.

Upon the resumption of the inquiry, however, William
Partridge said that he was present when the man in ques-
tion returned to the house on the evening of the fire. He
was apparently quite ignorant of what had happened, and
when told of it would have fallen to the ground in a faint if
he had not been supported. The woman Field, who appeared
to have had some quarrel with him, came up, and said that
he was at the bottom of the deceased's death, and that he
should see how she would do for him at the inquest She
said that, after a deal of abuse, in which she did not mention
that she had seen him leave the house about the time of the
fire.

Sarah Field, recalled, said that she had not bad any row
with the man in question on the evening of the fire. On
being confronted with the witness Partridge she admitted,
however, that she had had some words, but she did not call
that a row, as he said nothing. (Laughter.) She further
admitted that she did not see the man actually coming out
of the house just before the fire was first seen, but that he
was only coming from the direction of the door. She now
believed the fire was all an accident.

Henry Clinton, waiter, said that he left the house at 8
o'clock on the morning in question. Deceased was not then
in the room, and he believed she was not sober. She was
smoking, He had not assaulted the deceased, but she had
fallen and injured herself.
The jury returned a verdict—That deceased was found
burnt to death in a certain room, and that she had set her-
self on fire while smoking, she being at the time under the
influence of drink.
