NOTE.—The deaths are returned according to the
superintendent registrars' districts, as it is found im•
practicable to distinguish every place separately,

Our Liverpool correspondent informs us that in
the telegraphic dispatch of the news brought by the
Cambria, an erratum occurred respecting the accident to
the ship Tartar. It ought to be " six of the crew were
sick," instead of "six or the crew were lost."
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN BETHNAL' GREEN- ROA D,—
Last night, shortly before midnight, a fire that caused
considerable alarm, and was attended with a serious de-
struction of prtperty, broke out on the premises belong-
ing to Mr. Samuel Taylor, a clothes salesman, carrying
on business at No. 180, Bethnal-green.mnd. The flames
it appears, originated from some cause which could not
be ascertained in the front warehouse, and owing to the
ignitable nature of the stock in trade therein, but few
minutes passed away era the whole of the lower part of
the building became wrapped in fire. At that time the
whole of the residents were in the premises, and having
made their appearance at the front window they were
about to threw themselves out. They were persuaded
by the parties below not to do so, which advice they
obeyed, and assistance having arrived all the persons
whose lives were so greatly jeopardised, managed to
effect a safe retreat from the blazing building. The en-
gines of the parish and London, brigade were soon on
the spot, and there being an abundant supply of water
furnished by the East London Company, the three first
engines which came up were set to work ; but, in spite
of the exertions of the firemen, the fire continued,
to
spread, and it was not until the whole of Mr. layloers
stock in trade, with furniture and wearing apparel,
party,

consumed, that the flames could be mastered.

first floor, fell through the ceiling and was

an-
other happened in Playhouse -yard, St. Luke's, burning,
but,
owing to the timely assistance afforded, only one room!
in the house was burned out.
The Governor and Company of the Bank of
England have contributed an additional sum of 1001.
(making 3001.) in aid of the funds of the Committee for
promoting the Establishment of Baths and Washhouses
for the Labouring Classes, towards the completion of the
model establishment, Goulston square, Whitechapel.
DINNER TO AlEssas. T. M. GIBBON AND JOHN
BRlGHT.—Arrangemeuts are in progress for a grand
banquet to be given by the electors of Manchester to
their tried and excellent representatives in Parliament,
the Right Hon. T. M. Gibson, M.P., and Mr. John
Bright, M.P. It is proposed, we understand, that it
should take place early in 1850 ; but none of the details
are yet decided upon. A preliminary meeting of the
committee will be held at the Spread Eagle, Hanging
Ditch, on Thursday evening, to consider and determine
upon the steps to be taken in the matter; and, no doubt,
the banquet will be on a scale of magnificence in every
way commensurate with the importance of the occasion.
