A LAMPBLACK FACTORY ON FIRE.—At an early
hour this (Saturday) morning, the extensive lamp-
black factory, belonging to Mr. Joseph Nicholls, situated in
Alfred-street, Maiden-lane, king's-cross, was discoveredto
be on fire. Conductor Ward promptly attended, and several
engines of the London Brigade followed in rapid succes-
sion, including some of the land steamers, by Shand,
Mason, and Co. The firemen at once went to work, and,
with the aid of the small hand-pipes, and the directions
given by Mr. Bridges and Inspector Baddeley, the fire was
got out without setting the large engines to work ; but a
great portion of the roof has been burnt off, and the stock
in trade damaged by fire and water. The origin of the fire
is unknown.
