ARSON.—On Tuesday last an e xamiva tion
took place before the Magistrates at Liverpool, into the cilium-
stances of a fire which was discovered en the premises of:a Mr.
Clay Hall, tallow-melter, in Cleveland-square. The fire was
first seen by some watchmen, who, obtaining an entrance to
the premises, found a quantity of staves on fire in a back room
of the building, aid proceeding further another fire in a front
room ; the latter fire had burnt a large hole in the floor, and a
tub with tallow in it was blazing in this room. fly ,great exer-
tions both fires were subdued. An Excise Officer deposed, that
he had locked all up safe after the workmen had left., No one but
Mr. Hall was then on the premises. The stock was proved
to be of very trifling valise, but Mr. Hall had recently insured
it to a large amount in two Offices, the County and the in-
surance Company of Scotland. Many'circumstances of strong
suspicion were stated, which it might be improper in the pre-
sent state of inquiry to publish, as Mr. Hall is fully committed
to Lancaster gaol to take his trial at the next Assizes, on the
capital charge of setting fire to the premises.
