TOTAL DESTRUCTION OP THE HULL
THEATRE ROYAL.

Scarcely had the excitement, consequent upon the great
conflagration at Messrs. Hodges oil mill a few nights ago
subsided, than the town was startled by a report, at first
received with incredulity, but which was unfortunately
confirmed by the fact that the Theatre Royal, Humber-
street, was on fire. The rumour rapidly spread through
the town, and though just upon the stroke of twelve
thousands uJon thousands were seen hurrying to the
spot, all or more less exhibiting that peculiar state of ex-
citement which is caused by a fire. The -cone -which was
presented to the view of the spectators at half-past twelve
admits of no description. It is impossible to give even
an approximate estimate of the damage. Very little pro-
perty was saved from the flames. The old Theatre Royal
was destroyed by fire in October, 1859.

It is strange, but true that it was a common saying in
Hull, that the Theatre Royal was doomed, that it would
never pay as a dramatic establishment, or that it would be
burnt down. The latter prognostication has been unfor-
tunate verified.

Various rumours are, of course, prevalent, as to the ex-
tent of insurance on the building ; but we are in a position
to state the North British and Mercantile Insurance Com-
pany (represented by Mr. F. B. Grotrion) is liable to the
extent of £2,000.
