ALARMING FIRES.— About half-past seven
o'clock last evening a fire broke out in Great Castle-street,
Regent-street, on the premises of Mr. Mitchineer, No. 39'
on the south side, which for some time threatened destruc-
tion to the neighbouring buildings. The premises are let dut
in tenements, and the fire was first discovered in the apart'
ment of a blind man named Gardner, it the top of a large
attached wooden building, at the rear of the front dwelling:
house, and within a very few minutes the flames shet
through the roof, at the same time extending into the fror.
buildings. A small engine of the brigade reached the spot'
from the King-street station, closely followed by various
others, when, there being fortunately a plentiful supply of
water, the flames were by nine o ciock so far extinguished 1040
allay all fears of its extending further. The building in which
the fire originated is nearly destroyed, as are also the front pre-
mises of Mr. Mitehineer. Just as the above fire was extin-
guished, information was received that another conflagration
was raging in the neighbourhood of the New-road, Marylebone,
whither the Baker-street engine of the brigade, followed by that
of the West of England Fire-office, instantly started, having
their horses still in attendance. Other engines of the brigade
speedily followed by hand, accompanied by hundreds of per-
sons, and on their reaching the spot, the fire was found to have
occurred on the premises of Mr. Bird, No. I, Daster-street,
Crawford-street, which was eztinguished without doing anY
very extensive damage.
The day before yesterday,
about twelve, a young
woman, decently dressed, applied to the concierge at the Are
de Triomphe, to be allowed to go to the top. As she was
alone, and he was unwilling to go up with her, he refused her
admission ; but she at length prevailed upon him, by stating
that she had come all the way from Vincennes, and must re-
turn immediately. When they got to the top, the infatuated,
girl eluded the watchfulness of her attendant, and threw )herself
off; but, instead of reaching the ground, fell upon the cornice
of the edifice. She was taken down with her back broken!
and carried to the Hospital Beaujon, where sh.l died in a short
time. She had with her a bag containing a long rope, with
which she, no doubt, intended to hang herself had she net
been suffered to ascend the Arc de Triomphe. We have ne:
learnt who she was, nor the cause of her desperation— Ga
lignani of the sth.
ANOTHER ANTICIPATED OUTBREAK Of
THE CHARTISTS.-From some information which the antho;
rities had received, they deemed it necessary to have all the
military in the town and at the barracks in readiness on Satur-
day night, but fortunately, their services were not required,'"
