THAMES TUNNELL.—This morning, at one
o'clock, a fire broke out in the steam engine house of the Thames
"runnel, which consumed the roof of the same, but fortunately did
no further damage. The fire originated in the room appropriated
to the drying of the miner's clothing, but has not caused the
slightest interruption to the works of the Tunnel, which are pro-
ceuling very satisfactorily.

ward Jenks, who for many years has lived in a miserable hovel in
Qucen.street, Seven.dials, in a state of extreme poverty, has within
the last week, by the death of a relative abroad, come into possession

The late Lord St Helen's was born in 1753,
and unmarried. He was one of the trustees of the British Museum
and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries. His Lordship was the
second son of Sir William Fitzherbert, by Sarah, only daughter of
William Perrin, Esq. He was employed in some important diplo.
matic missions, and created an Irish peer in 1791, and in 1801 he
was further created an English peer. The issue of his Lordship's
elder brother are not in remainder to the peerage, which is conse-
quently extinct.
