Fires and Loss of Life.

Several fires happened last night and this morning in
the metropolitan district. One broke out on the premises
of Mr. McNeil. a lodging house keeper, No. 43, Royal Mint-
street, near the Tower of London. The discovery was
made about half-past 3in the morning by the police, who
aroused the inmates, and they escaped with great diffi-
culty. Three of the Royal Society's escapes promptly at-
tended, and the land steamers of Shand, Mason, and Co.,
were also soon upon the spot, as well as several manual
ones. Plenty of water being secured, the firemen went to
work, but the flames could not be extinguished until the
top rooms were burned out and the lower part damaged
by water. The origin of the fire is unknown.

A very lamentable fire took place in the premises of Mrs.
Partridge, No. 40, Devonshire-street, Portland-place,
which unfortunately was attended with fatal consequences.
From the particulars obtained it appears that some persons
in the street noticed flames curling round ono of the win-
dows. They immediately sent off for conductors Hutchins,
Arnold, Miskella, and Rowland, who at once started with
four of the Royal Society's escapes. Upon one of the con-
ductors entering the room he beheld a pitiable sight, for
near the window was lying, partially covered with a
carpet, Miss Helen Alexandra Todd. Where were still
flames rising through the ends of the carpet. Medical
assistance was quickly in attendance, but the poor creature
was found to have been burnt to death. Shand, Mason,
and Co.'s land steamers attended, but the fire was extin-
guished during the interval. There can be little doubt
the unfortunate lady first set fire, by some accident, to her
clothes, and the fire next reached the window.
