REGISTRATION OF LETTERS FOR THE UNITED STATES.
—Arrangements having been made for extending to let-
ters between this country and the United States the
system of registration in force in the two countries re-
spectively, on the Ist May next, and thenceforward, any
letter addressed to the United States (including California
and Oregon) may be registered, on payment of a regis-
tration fee of sixpence. This registration fee, as well as
the ordinary postage to which these letters are liable,
must, in all cases, be paid in advance, and no charge
whatever will be made on delivery of such letters at
their destination. This system of registration will apply
equally to letters addressed to California and Oregon,
which may be specially directed to be forwarded by the
West India Mail packets, via Panama. Similar regula-
tions have been made in the United States fur the regis•
tration of letters addressed to any part of the United
Kingdom.—By command of the Postmaster General—
RomaND Mee,Secretary.—General Post-office, April 22.
THE LATE FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE IN FINSBURY.—
Yesterday Mr. Baker held an investigation at the Castle
Tavern, Sun•street, Finsbury, respecting the deaths of
Rosa Gallendi, aged three years ; Julia Gallendi, aged
one year and eight months; and Sarah Gallendi, aged
two months. The deceased, who were described as re-
markably fine children, were left alone in a, room by
their mother, in which was a lighted fire, on Thursday
last, and on her return in about half an hour smoke was
issuing from the crevices of the door. Some of the
neighuours, at great personal risk, managed to extricate
the children from the burning room, but all three were
dead. Their clothes were not burned, or even scorched,
and it was clear that they had died of suffocation. The
evidence, though taken at great length, did not throw
any light upon the cause of the fire, which, according
to the statement of one of the firemen, seemed to have
originated in a cupboard near the fireplace. The coroner
baying summed up, the jury after some consultation,
returned a verdict to the effect that the three children
were suffocated in consequence of the fire breaking out,
but that bow the said fire was occasioned there was not
sufficient evidence to prove.
