THE LATE FATAL FIRE IN HOLBORN.—ADJOURNED
INQuE-T.--Yesterday Mr. Wakley resumed the inquiry
respecting the death of William Chapple, landlord of the
premises, 14, High Holb •rn, who died from injuries re•
ceived at the fire which took place there on the 27th ult.
Since the previous inquiry, John Rolfe, aged 16, appren-
tice to Mr. Maidmist, saddler, who occupied the shop
and part of the house, has died from injuries received on
this occasion. It will be remembered that Mr. Maidmist
was not present at the former inquiry, iwben the sum-
mcning officer stated that he had been unable to find
Mr. Maidmist. Mr. Wright, solicitor for that gentle-
man, now stated that he wished to make a complaint
atzainst the summoning officer. On the last occasion
Mr. Maidmist was not summoned, and he wished to
know how this happened ? After some explanation, the
coroner ex inerated the summoning officer from blame,
and Mr. Maidmist was examined. On the night of the
fire he slept in the back first floor, and hie mother and
the apprentice in a partitioned room above. They all
escaped by jumping out of the window of his room into
tile yard, where they got on an outhouse. The house
was filled by hot smoke, but they saw no fire till they'
were on the outhouse, when they saw flames darting
through the roof. Mr.i H. Owens, chief clerk of the
Times Assurance Office, proved that Mr. Maidmist in'
sured in that office on the 21st July for 3001. ' • and Mr.
W. Blythe, clerk in the Alliance, also proved that Mr.
Maidmist insured in that office for 8001. in last April.
Ho had been previously insured in the Beacon for 300/.
After some further evidence the coroner urged the im-
portance of an adjournment, in order that the premises
might be officially inspected, and a model made. The
jury fully acquiesced in the desirability of such a pro-
ceeding, and the inquiry was then further adjourned.
.A COMMERCIAL UNION IN AIIISTRALIA.—It is under
stood that the chief object of the Governor's visit
to Beechworth, and of his proposed meeting with
Sir William Denison, is the establishment of a com-
mercial union similar to that which bas for many
years been in beneficial operation between Prussia and
the minor States of Germany. In Germany, pre-
viously to this union, commercial affairs were in as un-
satisfactory a state as can well be conceived. Every
petty State had its own tariff, its own custom-houses,
and its own customs regulations. The consequence was
that the internal trade of Germany was subjected to innu-
merable and vexatious restrictions, which were just so
many clogs upon the wheels of industry. Upon this
subject M'Culloch, in his Dictionary, well remarks,
that "nothing has contributed s much,to the growth
of industry and wealth in Great Britain as the perfect
freedom of internal industry we have so long enjoyed,
and that intimate correspondence among the various
parts of the empire which has rendered each the
best market for the products of the other." In
recommending a similiar union to Australia we do not
overlook the importance also of a political and federal
union, but there is this grand difference between
the two kinds of union, that the political union
involves so many considerations,—there are so mall
interests to be reconciled and so many prejudices
to be overcome, that it must be a work of mall'
years. On the other hand, the commercial ',Mimi,
is one of comparatively easy attainment, the cow
flicting interests are few, and the feeling among the mer-
cantile body throughout the colonies is entirely favour-
able. The establishMent of a commercial union would
in all probability very greatly facilitate and promote the
still more important object of an Australian political
confederation, and with this object there could not be a
more useful preliminary measure.—Melbourne Argiis)
