DEATH OF SIR SAMUEL BUSH ISIBYRICK, K.H.L.,
&c.—This gentleman, so well known for his knowledge
of ancient armour, in testimony of which he was knighted
by William IV. in 1832, died on the 2d instant, at his
seat, Goodrich-court, Herefordshire, deeply regretted by
all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. _ Inlemwaas

shortly before nine o'clock, the private residence of Mr.
John Pew, known as Wharf cottage, Hertfort-road,
ALARMING FIRE AT KING
Kingsland, was discovered to be on fire. The flame*
commenced on the first floor, and before their existence
became known, one of the apartments sad all it contained
were enveloped in fire. An instant alarm was raised,
and several parties hastened to
raised that two children were sleeping in the room ad-
joining the one on fire. Some of the neighbours ran up
the stairs for the purpose of rescuing the children, but
the flames were rushing out of the door with such vio-
lence as to prevent any one from getting to the apart-
ment by the regular way. Fortunately the police obtained
a ladder, which was raised in front of the house, and by
that means the children were got out, but not until they
were nearly choked with the smoke. Intelligence having
been
...spatelicd to the engine stations, and, with as little
delay as possible, engines arrived. Unfortunately Mr.
Yew was not insured. A spark from a lighted candle,
it is understood, was the cause of the mischief.
SINGULAR SEIZURE OF ILLICIT SEIRITS.—On
Saturday evening Messrs. Bayford and Lewins, the
active excise officers, being on duty in Bigh-street,
Southwark, and observing a man of suspicious appear-
ance loitering backwards and forwards near to one of
the coach and van offices, it occurred to them that he
bad recently delivered or was waiting for a load of
goods, and from suspicion of his being engaged in a con-
traband trade, they entered the coach-office, where se-
veral packages were lying about. Having examined
the whole of them minutely, one large box excited their
attention, more particularly from the address attached
and its general appearance. They accordingly ordered
that the box should be opened, when it was discovered
that it was but a covering to a large tin case filled with
illicit spirits, 30 per cent. over proof. After this revela-
tion of the contents, of course, no claimant appeared.
The officers then seized the spirits and conveyed them
to the excise-office warehouse in Broad-street.
