into great confusion. During the an old malt
was found leaving the house with a quantity of
melted glass, Sze. He was stopped, and an pm-
ceeding to the kitchen, a fiery furnace, of
immense dimensions, was discovered, and
all the necessary aparatus for glass-blovi
ing, and the apartment contained bodies of the
most valuable glass. The blowers had all
been at work, but escaped prior to the arrival of
the Excisemen, who are now in possession of the
place and property. The old man was taken in
custody, and remanded at Bow-street for the at-
tendance of Mr. Mayhew, the Solicitor of the
house
Excise.

FlRE.—Yesterday morning, at about 5 o'cloci,
the house in the occupation of Mr. Hewitt, pork-butcher, at the
corner of St. Thomas's-street, Southwark, was discovered to be
on fire; and so rapid were the flames in their destructive pro=
gress, that before eight the walls had fallen in, and the pre-
mises were in ruins. Fortunately the inmates escaped, and we
are not aware of the occurrence of any accident.

DREAD7UL ACCIDENT.—This forenoon, soon
after ten o'clock, a young lady, of prepossessing
appearance, in endeavouring to cross the narrow
part of St. Martin's-lane, was knocked down by
a horse and cart, which at the moment turned
suddenly down, and before she could avoid the
danger, she fell, and the cart passed over her ; a
dreadful shriek notified to the passengers the ca-
tastrophe, and she was immediately raised anti
carried to a surgeon's, and on examination it was
found the young lady's right thigh was dread-
fully fractured, and she has sustained other very
severe injuries. Every medical care was paid her,and
she was put to bed. On enquiry we have ascer-
tained her name to be SRA,' and she has con-
ducted the millinery department of a house of
business in: Albemarle-street; and was on her
way to the City to make some purchases when the
distressing occurrence took place,
