FIRE IN LAMBETH.--Yesterday morning, about
Eve o'clock, a fire, attended with-a considerable destrutr
von of property, and nearly fatal results to the inmates,
broke out upon the premises belonging to Mr. C. Cooll‘
rane, a corn and seed merchant, carrying on business i 0
the New cut, Lambeth next door to the Windmill Ti:
vern. The discovery'was made by Police-constable 196
of the L division, through seeing a body of smoke pour'
ing forth from the basement floor. The officer intitve:
diately aroused the residents, when they found the floor:
ascending the staircase so fiercely as to prevent their
descending. They immediately went to the second floor,
bu- there they were f Mowed by the fire, and they were,
at length obliged to jump upon a leaden roof over one cu
the stores filled with hay and straw. Whilst waitit4
there for a ladder, the flames shot through the winder?•
and trap-door, so that nothing but destruction stared
them in the face. Two police officers having got a shoo
ladder, they held it out et arms length in the form 0f
a bridge, over which the parties passed into the holm
aujoining. Nearly three hours elapsed ere the 6re Wt/
furniture, wearing aprrisel, and st, ck in trade were de'extinguished, and not until the whole of Mr. Cochrane •
stroyed, and the premises nearly gutted.

Tua MARBLE ARCH.—We have no faith in the
statement of some of our contemporaries that I'm;
marble arch is going to Windsor. Our corresponaol3'
puts before us the suggestion made in the Au/racoon'
that it should be erected in front of the British Museuvl•
We incline much more strongly to the suggestion in oaf
own pages (among twenty others), that it should be made
to form a fitting entrance to St. James's-park.
