NEW ZEALA.ND,----liis Majesty's store-ship
Dromedary, Capt. SKINNER, in her late voyage to
New Zealand, anchored in the Bay of Islands,
and took on board a cargo of cowdy, or pine
spars, sufficiently large for the topmasts of ships
of 98 guns. They were loaded at Whangarooa,
where the Boyd was cut off by the natives and
the crew and passengers murdered. Some of the
vestiges of the ill-fated people are still visible,
and the chief actor in the dreadful affair, a native,
who has long been at Sydney, and known by the
natne of George, openly avows he was the chief
perpetrator. The bones of the unfortunate men
are worn as ornaments by the natives.—(New
South Wales Advertiser, Dec. 23, 1820.)

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.-Yesterday morning, at
eight o'clock, a fire broke out in the manufactory
of Mr. Moseley, turner, packing case, and look-
ing glass frame maker, in Misnel-street, St. Luke's.
It occurred during the absence of the workmen, at
breakfast, it is conjectured, from fome shavings
having been ignited by a fire, which was used for
the purpose of melting glue, and owing to the
combustible nature of the stock in trade, it burnt
with the utmost rapidity. From the street being
very narrow, and the great scarcity of water which
for some time 'prevailed, it was not got under
until the premises were completely gutted, and
property to a large amount, consisting of the
stock in trade, working tools, &c. was destroyed.
The flames communicated to an adjoining house,
and to the dwelling house of Mr. Moseley, in the
rear fronting into Baltic-street, both of which
were materially damaged.—Monday night, about
r 2 o'clock, a fire broke out at the house of Mr.
Webster, oilman and tallow chandler, Chapman-
street, St. George's in the East. It originated in
the shop, and was first discovered by a neigh-
bour,
w
who,e obliged
rwitli to eslic diffictiy,
roused the inmates.
They ;pe by jumping from the
windows on a bed, but a lady who lodged in the
house had her arm broken by falling against the
pavement. The whole of the house, together
with the extensive stock in trade, and valuable
furniture, were destroyed.

GEORGE BUCKE, Esq. has obtained the Prize
'Gold Medal, given by the Corporation of Dublin,
for the best English Ode on the subject of his
MAJESTY'S visit to Ireland.

The house of Major-General BEATSON, at
Knowle-farm, near Frant, in Sussex, was broke
open on Sunday last, during divine service,
while every servant was off the premises. No-
thing was lost. It supposed the ruffians were
alarmed in the larder, wheke they attacked some
provisions, by some Gentlemen who came to the
house to see the farm and improvements. A
black man, seen on the road, was suspected.
Sunday evening, during the absence of the
family, who were gone to prayers, some villains
broke into the dwelling-house of Mr. HARVEY,
silk manufacturer, in Elder-street, Norton Fal-
gate, and robbed it of 3501. in gold, three silver
watches, and jewellery to a large amount, also a
quantity, of wearing apparel, household linen,
&c. with which they escaped.
