MR. DENVIL.—This gentleman,
an actor who for •
considerable reputation in the metropolis
merly enjoyed
during the production of Byron
's Manfred at Drury-lane
Theatre, is now, it seems,
suffering deeply from the misfor-
tunes brought on by illness and limited professional occupa-
tion. A 'performance is about to be given for his benefit at
the Pavilion Theatre (of which he was once the manager),
which, it is to be hoped, will enable the few friends who are
exerting themselves in his behalf to afford him the relief of
which he stands so much in need. .

y Yesterda
at the corner of Agnes and Cross Streets, Waterloo-road.
The discovery was made by one of the constables of the L
division; whilst patrolling his beat. Smoke which ha saw
issuing from the lower part of the premises convinced him
that. the place was on fire; he therefore raised an alarm,
and, after repeatedly knocking at the doors, sncceeded in
arousing the inmates, consisting of Mr.- and Mrs. Belton,
their son, and two female lodgers. By the time, however,
that they were made sensible of their danger the whole of
the basement was one immense body of fire, and the flames
had extended half- way up the staircase. Finding it impos-
sible to escape down stairs, the two female lodgers leaped out
of the top window, Mr. and Mrs. Belton were obliged to re•
sort to•the dangerous expedient or first throwing their child
out of window, and afterwards jumping out themselves.
Mr. Belton was very severely hurt about the feet, but the
other parties fortunately received no
injury of any import-
ance. The West of England engine arrived, followed by
several belonging to the. London: brigade. ITnfortunatelv,
during the excitement, which prevailed, the turncock had
not been called; and the consequence was, that although the
engines were all ready. to be worked, not a drop of water
could be procured, and the house, with all it contained, was
soon reduced to ruins. At length the turncock having been
/ apprised of the misfortune, attended immediately, and a
- / plentiful supply of water was then obtained. The whole of
