ALARM OF FIRE AT CHELSEA. IlosriTAL.—On
Tuesday, at half-past six r.ar., some of the veterans of Chel-
sea observed flames of fire apparently issuing from the roof
of the main building of the wards. The ',word was passed,
and the fire alarm was beat by the drums, and Colonel Leb-
lanc, the commandant, with a large party of men, were
immediately upon the spot, with the engines of the establish.
ment, fully prepared to act with vigour and effect. It was
found, however, or. repairing to the roof of the building, that
although there were good grounds for alarm, and that danger
was imminent, no damage had actually been sustained. The
plumbers who had been repairing the lead-work of the roof
had left the place it dusk, and had negligently forgotten to
extinguish the fire in their portable stove, the blazing of
which, as the twilight faded, attraeted the attention of the
watchful veterans of the hospital. Great credit is due to the
hospital stair for tl.e promptness with which they answered
the summons of the alarm sounded by the drum.
" IT'S A FAcr."—Jenny Lind is to be married at
last—not a mere press marriage—for she has been given
away by nearly every editor in the kingdom; but a real
marriage, to be celebrated by wedding-cake, favours,
and every possible happiness. The name of the future
husband is to be a Mr. Harris, so that the long-talked-
of myth—the original Mysterious Lady—the female
Frankenstein that our dearly beloved and much libelled
Mrs. Gamp created for her own future torment—will be
proved to be no fable, but a real exist( nt beautiful being.
Who, in the name of all extravagance, could possibly
have guessed that the Swedish Nightingale would even-
tually turn out to be Mrs. Larria!— Punch.
