FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE AT EAST DRAYCOMBE.—
On Wednesday night a fire broke out on the premises of
J. W. Patterson, Esq., of Wilton House. It wan first
discovered by one of the police. The engine from Dray-
combe, and others from Marston and Layfield soon ar-
rived; but before any efficient means could be brought
to bear upon the flames the fire had made rapid advances,
and by three o'cleck in the morning nearly the entire
edifice was consumed. By nint of great exertions on
the part of the firemen an extensive range of offices were
preserved. A considerable portion of the furniture and
other effects were saved. The inmates, with the excep-
tion of one of the female servants, succeeded in escaping
from the building uninjured. It is supposed that the
female in:question having delayed leaving the premises
until her escape by the roof was cut off, had sought the
roof, as she was seen upon the leads, and heard from
thence imploring for assistance, which the persons below
were unable to render. There is no doubt but she
perished in the flames, although no portion of her re-
mains have been discovered. Mr. Patterson and family
are at present on the continent. The property is be-
lieved to be fully insured.
SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A CARLIST GENERAL
OFFlCER.—Yesterday Mr. Bedford received information
of the death of a Spanish refugee named Le Chevalier
Constade de Peres, formerly a Major-General in the
service of Don Carlos, residing at No. 7, Haddon-street,
St. James's, under somewhat suspicious circumstances.
It appeared from a statement made by the summoning
officer, that on the breaking up of the Carlist forces the
deceased escaped to this country, where he became a,
teacher of languages. Sines the arrival of the Duke de
Montemolin in London, the deceaSed had become more
than usually animated. On Wednesday last he dined
with a Mr. Zenora, of 13, Maddox-street, Regent-street,
whom he left in good health, and returned to his lodg-
ings. Next morning he was discovered lying in bed life-
less. No vessel containing anything of a deleterious na-
ture was found, but from strong rumours that have got
abroad in the neighbourhood, the coroner has ordered a
post mortem examination of the body to be made prior to
his holding an inquest.

HORRIBLE MILITARY EXECUTION IN RUSSIA.—A
letter from St. Petersburgh gives an account of the exe-
cution of a soldier for the murder of a non-commissioned
officer against whom he had a hatred. The murder was
perpetrated under horrible circumstances. The mur-
derer entered the sleeping-room of his victim, where he
stabbed him with his bayonet, and then cut the body
into pieces with a razor, and putting them into a sack
threw them into a canal. The sentence was, that he
should pass through the ranks of his regiment receiving
blows from sticks until death should ensue.. He went
boldly through the first part of his punishment, singing
a war-song, but at length his voice failed and he fell.
The surgeon on examining the body declared that life
was extinct.--French paper.
