FIRE IN LAMBETlL—Yesterday (Wednesday) morning
a fire broke out on the premises of Messrs. Stephen
Green and Co., in Princes-street, Lambeth. Several
hours elapsed before the flames yielded to the exertions
of the firemen, and not until the whole of the newly-
erected pottery and its contents, valued at several thou-
sand pounds, bad been consumed, with the sole exception
of four kilns. The prernises adjoining and counnunicat-
ing have received serious injury from the flames entering
every floor, but, owing to the exertions of the firemen,
under Mr. Henderson, Mr. Connorion, and Mr. Hello-
way, the great hell-tower, which stood in the centre of
the works, escaped. The Hide front of Messrs. Jones's
whiting-works is likewise damaged by fire, and the stock 1
by water. The water-side premises of the same firm are
also scorched by the intense heat, and so are several
houFes on the opposite side of Princes-street.
THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.—Since our last we
have had several days of thorough spring weather. The
sun has shone forth in uninterrupted brilliancy, and his
cheering rays, albeit tempered by somewhat sharp
.breezes, have made all nature, animal and vegetable, re
joice in the change. Vegetation has made a rapid ad-
vance ; the trees are bursting into leaf, and on every side
are indications that spring has really arrived. The.
wheats continue to wear a promising appearance, and,
although none of our crops can be said to be forward for
the period of the year, yet all look healthy and vigorous.
The grass crops have shot up greatly since the late rains.
Altogether the country presents a highly satisfactory
appearance, and fairly justifies sanguine hopes on the
part of our agriculturists. Feed of all kinds is plenti-
ful. - , 5 ussex A drertiser.
