There does not appear to be the slightest hope of

Fears are entertained for the houses adjoining.
Great efforts are being made to save some part of the
wardrobe, which since the present lessee has held the
theatre has become very valuable: it is being thrown
from the windows at the back ptrt of the theatre in

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
Yesterday afternoon, the inhabitants of the surround-
ing neighbourhood were thrown into a state of the
utmost consternation from the breaking out of a fire,
which, before it was subdued, rendered the once cele-
brated Olympic a mass of ruins. Of the building only
a portion of the walls and the portico in Drury-lane,
which used to lead to the box and pit entrances, are
standing. The first information which the i❑habitants of
the adjoining houses and the passers by had of the ca-
lamity, was from the several persons connected with the
theatre rushing into the streets and calling out fire, and
almost immediately after the flames and smoke were to
be seen pouring out in all directions. Within five minutes
after the first alarm had been given the engines from the
parish church, followed by those from Chandos-street,
West of England, the Waterloo-road, the Farringdon
and Watling-street stations arrived, and these were suc-
ceeded by those belonging to the more distant stations;
yet with this powerful aid, coupled with a plentiful
supply of water, and assisted by a large and powerful
body of police, under the direction of Mr. Superintendent
Pearce and Inspector Ward, of the F division, the ex-
ertions were unavailing, and the Olympic is totally
destroyed.
The following authentic particulars connected with
this calamity have been obtained from Mr. David-
son, the lessee in conjunction with Captain; Spicer.
Mr. Davidson informed the reporter that he had been at
the theatre during the whole day, making the necessary
preparations for the production of the several pieces
which were to be produced that evening for the benefit
of Mr. Bender, it being the last night but one of the
season. At ten minutes past five o'clock he left the
theatre for his chambers, at which time the house vas
is
perfect safety. In less than half an hour he returned to
witness the destruction of his property (one of the per-
sons connected with the theatre corning with the intel-
ligence of the calamity to him in a cab), and front the
isiformation which he obtained from the several parties
in the building at the time of the accident, the follow-
ing is the origin of the fire:—Tha drop-curtain on the
the stage, as all the frequenters of the theatre aro
aware, was of green velvet, but, from being very old,
it was lined with common cotton. The curtain, in-
stead of drawing up, divided in the centre,
and was drawn to the sides. On that side next
to the right from the entrance to the boxes and pit
was situate the prompter's box, and here a gas-light
was located, over which was invariably placed a tin
shade to prevent any accident. Last evening, the per-
son whose duty it was to attend to the gas was absent,
and the party who lighted the prompter's lamp forgot to
please the tin shade over it; the light of the gas thus
came in contact with the curtain, and in an instant all
was in flames. The carpenters and those on the stage
declare that the fire ran up as if it had caught a train
of gunpowder; for some secends they were stupified,
but as soon as they recovered their self-possession they
ran to the top of the flies with an intention of cutting
the supporters of the curtain away. While this was
being done Mr. Stirling, the stage manager, and the
treasurer, had filled what buckets they could with water,
hoping that when the curtain fell they should be able, if
not to extinguish, to at least prevent the flames from
extending until help was obtained, and thus save the
building and property. The carpenters, however, camp
running down, declaring that all hope was lost, for the
flames had caught the various inflammable matters, sixth
as turpentine, &c., so as to render it impossible to save
the building from total destruction. This opinion, un-
fortunately,
was too well founded, as within an hour the
whole was one mass of flames, towering up like a pyra-
mid, and, though still day-light, showing to a consider-
able distance.

Prospectuses, with tables of rates, &c., may be had at the sake,

It is to be regretted that Mr. Davidson is not insured.
That gentleman and Captain Spicer took the house about
eighteen months ago, and, singular as it may appear,
an insurance was to have been effected to-morrow. Mr.
Davidson having come to an agreement with Mr. Farren
and Mrs. Nesbit to let the house for the summer season,
they were to take possession in a few days. The loss
sustained by the present lessees is about 2,0001.
The house was originally built by Philip Astley for
equestrian performances. George 111. not only assisted
Astley pecuniarily, but gave him the timber of a cap-
tured French seventy•four, of which the whole of the
interior of the theatre was composed, the masts being
used as the supporters. The ground on which it stood
belongs to the Earl of Craven; but the owner of the late
theatre was Mr. Cavell, a descendant of old Astley by
marriage, and that gentleman's loss is covered by an
insurance in the County Fire-office for 3,0002
Independently of the above loss, from 15 to 20 persona
have suffered morelor leas by the calamity, most of whom
are in humble circumstances, but from the confusion
which prevailed it was impossible :to obtain anything
like a correct account. The greatest sufferer is under-
stood to be the landlord of the Fountain, the corner of
Maypole-alley, which nearly abutted on the theatre.
The inhabitants in Craven-buildings brought out their
goods, and sustained in this way much greater damage
than if they had actually remained in their various
rooms.
By nine o'clock all danger had ceased; and although
there could not not have been at one time less than
from 10,000 to 15,000 persons about the vicinity; yet,
owing to the admirable arrangements of the police, it
was understood no accident occurred.

(LATEST PARTICULARS.)
Daring the whole of the night, and up to this day,
four powerful engines have been constantly throwing
streams of water on the smoking ruins. It appears that,
with the exception of the theatre itself, no other building
has been totally consumed, and, very different to the
cases of the Royalty and Astley's, but little in this me-
lancholy instance is insured.

Several of the houses damaged in the under-mentioned
list are the property of the Crown. The following are
the names of the occupiers, an official return of which
was obtained this day:—

TO TUN LADI2B.
This lady had the following letter inserted in the " TIMM" neWtS_
paper on Aug. 7, 1546. Reader, remember, this letter was put 1s
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
4. Mist. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, lierough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstoue, or the Ilerbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than
I over was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to;the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
lis. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in her estoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, bat as a care of nervous headache as a toilet perfume iti far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasnre in answering any
Lady of resectability to the aboveSwau-street, Borough."

most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshig
