This morning early, a fire broke out at a baker's
in East-lane, Greenwich, which in a abort time
consumed the inside; with the stock in trade, be-
sides damaging some other houses.
Major P. HAWKER, to one old dog, shot, a few
days ago, in the wild parts of Hampshire,' with
other sportsmen around him, no less than twenty-
five brace of partridges, and a hate, between the
hours of nine o'clock in the morning anti six in
the evening.
Wednesday afternoon a man very- genteelly
dressed was sitting at a door in Hackney•road,
apparently in a state of despondency. Several
persons went to his assistance, and asked his name
and address. He said be was the Duke'of Wel-
hngton, and had dined with the Prince Re-
gent, and talked in a very incoherent manner. lie
at length untied his handkerchief, and took a
clasp knife from his pocket, and thrust it into his
neck, which made a groat incision. .A man seized
his arts, and took the instrument •from his hand.
He was taken to a surgeon's, who dressed the
wound, and the unfortunate man was conveyed
to his home at Shaeklewell.

The Americans have lung been amusing the
world with accounts of a Sea-Serpent a mile long;
and now they have discovered a Flounder as big
as a house, according to the following paragraph
in a New York Paper which we received yester-
day :—" We learn from a Gentleman of the first
' veracity, that a Flounder, as large ►►s the front
of a two-story house, was caught in one of the
creeks on the side of Long Island. This fish was
chased in flow sea by a shoal of sharks, and had
been badly wounded by them."
DREADFUL ACCIDENT.---Yesterday as George
Rose, a youth about 17 years of age, who was
at work at Thomas's note], Berkeley-square,
was ascending a ladder with a bucket of water,
in front of the house, and had got about 20 feet
higi►, one of the staves gave way, which pre-
cipitated lti►n into the street, and broke both his
arms, fractured his skull, and dreadfully bruised
him in several places about the body. The un-
forlooate youth was immediately conveyed 10 St.
George's Hospital, where he now lingers in the
most excruciating agony, and but slight hopes are
entertained of his recovery.
