DESTRUCTIVE r' IRE AT COLCHESTER.—Yesterday
morning (Friday) a most disastrous fire occurred at the ex-
tensive malting-houses at New-quay, near the Hythe, Col-
chester, in the occupation of Mr. John' Garrad, an extensive
maltster and tanner at I3ures St. Mary, Suffolk. About half-
past three o'clock in the morning, as one of Mr. Garrad's men
was going to the malt-houses, he discovered flames issuing
from the stupendous roof of the building. lie instantly
alarmed the inmates of the cottage near by, and a messenger
was dispatched to Colchester for the fire-engines, which
(three in number) were at the spot in less than an hour, ac-
companied by the engine from the Hythe. By this time
the whole fabric, together with five kilns, were in flames
from one end to the other, which, notwithstanding a good
supply of water from the river, defied the exertions of the
firemen and a great number of persons, who, from the alarm
given, were present, and, rendered every assistance in their
power to subdue the raging element, but their efforts
were unavailing, as hi less than two hours nothing was
left standing but the outer walls. The roof fell in about
five o'clock with a tremendous crash. The five kilns.fell soon
after. The property consumed is to a very considerable
amount, as there were between 3,000 and 4,000 quarters of
malt, and about 1,300
quarters of barley, besides other
valuable property, in the different chambers. About 5,000/.
worth of the malt is the property of Messrs. Hanbury and
Co, brewers, London, and the remainder of the stock is Mr.
Garrad's own property, whose loss is unfortunately not
covered by insurance. The. 'premises were the property of
Mr. Charles Ilawkins, timber-merchant, of Colchester, and
are insured in the Essex and Suffolk Equitable. We have
not heard whether the property of Messrs. Hanbury and Co.
was insured. The precise cause of the tire has not been
ascertained. Many conjectures are afloat, and the prevalent
opinion is that it originated from one of the kilns, the whole
of which were charged with malt for high drying. Another
opinion is, that the malt, after being thrown from the kilns
the night previous, must have ignited on the chamber, and
caused the calamitous accident. There does not appear the
least reason to suppose that it was the act of an incendiary.
Thevalue of the property consumed (including the buildings),
is estimated at about 12,0001. A considerable number of
workmen will be thrown out of employ by the accident.
COUNTRY COUSINS.—In emulation of the example
so successfully set by the metropolitan railways for country
traffic in the last Easter holidays, cheap rail Way trips to the
metropolis have been announced from Leeds, Derby, and
Nottingham, during the approaching Whitsuntide holidays.
A train is announced to leave Leeds on Whit-Monday, the
97th of May, at 6h. 50m. A.M., and reach London at 511. 30m.
P.m., leaving London, on its return, on Thursday, the 30th of
May, at 11 A.m.: the fares being from Leeds to London and
back, first class, 505., and second class, 255. Cheap trainswill
leave Nottingham for London twice during the Whitsun-
week, giving the passengers the option of staying four or
eight days ; the fares by the second class, there and back,
being 28s. Cheap trips are also announced as during the
Easter week, by the Dover, Southampton, Brighton, and
Colchester Railways.
