ing to a labouring man, named Michael Connell, residing
at No. 30, King-street, Drury-I ._ne, were incautiously sent
to bed with a lighted candle. by themselves in the garret,
where they commenced playing with it, and the clothes of
Mary Connell, a fine little girl about eight years of age,
caught fire, and before the flames could be extinguished
the whole of her body and legs were dreadfully burnt. She
was taken to the Middlesex Hospital, where she now lies
in a very hopeless state.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, OCT. V.—The
Sugar Market has not been brisk ; thc•prices demanded by
the merchants preclude an extensive trade. What have
been sold, have realised the full advance, at which ►►ll de-
scriptions remain stationary and very firm.—Bristol
Mercury.

Ou Saturday the Marylebone vestry were occupied
with the discussion of the best means to be adopted, since
Oxford-street is not to be paved, to obtain an equalization
of the rating on the part of the other parishes in which the
street is situated. Mr. Biers moved a resolution to- tho
effect that Parliament be petitioned on the subject. Mr.
Gibson seconded the motion, and Mr. Large opposed it, on
the ground tint Parliament would not interfere, ,the ques-
tion being one of a pecuniary nature. Mr. Gibson wished
to be added to the resolution the words " or any other sub-
ject which may be deemed necessary," which was agreed to
by Mr. Biers. A long discussion ensued, but the motion
was carried; and the vestry, after some furtnet business,
adjourned.
On Tuesday last, Oct. 24th, was shot by Mr. S.
White, of Cam, a very fine woodcock, weighing rather
more than 13 ounces.—Gloucester Journal.
