FIRE IN THB KINGSLAND -110 AD.—This morning,
about two o'clock, a fire broke out at the rear of the premises
of Mr. George Cane, saddle and harness maker, No. 44,
Kingsland-road. The origin of the fire is not known, but
Mr. Cane states that he was awakened at about the above
time by the noise of what he thought to be a heavy fall of
hail, but he soon discovered that the house was on fire. The
alarm was at once given, and in a very short time a strong
body of the police were in attendance, and rendered efficient
service. The back premises, which contained oil linen, or
waterproof cloth, were destroyed. The loss falls upon the
