THE CALAMITOUS FIRE IN
DOVER-STREET.
LATEST PARTICULARS.-(THIS DAY.,
FINDING OF THE BODY OF MRS. ROUND.

This morning, so early as five o'clock, workmen employed in the
service of the Directors of the Globe Insurance-office, were set to
work upon the ruins of Raggett's Hotel, in Dover-street, the arena
of the recent conflagration and loss of life, so that the necessary
preparations might be made for fully protecting the firemen while
they explored the several apartments.
By
six o'clock the shoring was finished : the walls, however,
especially the interior one, appearing much out of the perpendicular,
and, consequently, very dangerous. At that hour, despite the im.
pending and fearful appearance of the whole building, ten men in
the service of the London Fire Establishment began to turn over
the rubbish on the ground floor in the back room, and in the rooms
immediately contiguous to the stair-head, just over the hall.ceiling.
About eleven o'clock Mr. Loder, the principal engineer of the
western section of the brigade, received information from one of the
men engaged on the upper floor that he had found a body. Mr.
Fogo, the foreman, being informed of the fact, the circumstance
was kept exceedingly quiet, and only those informed of it who were
immediately concerned in the discovery. The Earl of Huntingdon
was upon the spot at the time, and upon viewing the remains his
Lordship appeared to feel the deepest emotion. There is no
doubt, we understand, as to the identity, though the remains
are deplorably mutilated. It scarcely admits of a doubt, from the
position in which the body lay, that the ill-fated lady,
immediately after having been seen by the waiter, Robinson, on
the first.floor landing, when the alarm was given, was over-
powered by fright, smoke, and flame, and that as the flames
progressed with such terrific rapidity that escape was hope-
less, she sank down on the floor, and thus perished. As soon as
possible after the finding of the body, information of the fact was
communicated to the family and the official persons connected with
the offices of insurance. A shell was speedily procured, and the
remains deposited therein and conveyed to the workhouse of St.
George, Mount street, Grosvenor square, where the others lie, to
await the adjourned inquest this afternoon.

THE ANTI-CoRN-LAW BAZAAR.—This exhibition
concluded with appropriate festivity. A gay and numerous party
crowded the theatre. The Gothic.hall, the illuminations, the
lanthornC remained; the stalls and the unsold goods had been
mostly removed, and a festive party filled the theatre from eight
till the commencement of the morning. Refreshments, too, were
provided. The exhibition was not, indeed, open to the public.
It was a private party of the friends of the League, but the pri-
vate party consisted of many hundred persons, indicating how
numerous must be the vast body of which such a multitude is only
a specimen.
