FIRE AND LOSS OF LlFE—This Day.

Before the firemen of the metropolitan brigade
had left the great fire in Clerkenwell they were
called to attend another in King-street, Covent-
garden. Upon their arrival they found the lofty
range of premises belonging to Mr. 11. Bocking, a
basket-maker, in flames. Mahoney, one of the
firemen who had charge of the escape, hearing that
some one was in the burning building, ascended his
escape, and tried to push his way into the premises,
but the fire rolled out of the window so furiously as
to terribly burn the intrepid man, and he was unable
to render further assistance, but on the contrary was
obliged to be removed to the hospital. The band,
manual, and steam engines of the Metropolitan
Brigade quickly arrived, and, baying a good supply
of water, went to work in an admirable manner, but
they were unable to get the flames extinguished
until the building, which was three stories high, was
burnt out. The firemen, as soon as the ruins were
sufficiently cooled, entered, and found that a lady,
named Loofort, aged 67 years, had been burnt to
death. The body was placed in a shell and re-
moved to the dead-house to await the coroner's in-
quest.
