ALARMING FIRR.—On Thursday morning between
eight and nine o'clock, the inhabitants of Field-lane,
Holborn, were alarmed by hearing loud cries of" Firer'
proceeding from the houie, No. 1, in the lane. Upon
the neighbours entering one of the rooms they found' a
quantity of straw that had been used as a bed in a get.eral
blaze. At the same time two or three children were in the
room, and the fire was burning most fiercely. Atter
some trouble the flames were extinguished; but one
child was so severely burnt about the body that it was
forced to be removed to the hospital. The outbreak
was occasioned by a spark flying from a lucifer-match
among the straw on its being struck against the box.
The engines from Farringclon-street station quickly
attended, but fortunately their services were not re-
quired.
