About two yesterday morning a fire broke out in
house in Bermondsey-street ; but, by the speedy
rival of engines it was got under, after destroying
:le principal part of the furniture.
Thursday night, about six o'clock, a fire was dis-
overed under the extensive premises on South Bridge
street, Edinburgh, belonging to Messrs. Glasox,
TnoNsoN, and CRAIG, which, at first threatened de-
struction to the whole tenement, but from the prompt
measures taken by the Lord Provost and Magistrates,
the early attendance of the fire engines, several par-
ties of the military, and a number of gentlemen, and
the high constables of that city, the fire was corn-
Fletely got under, in the course of an hour, without
do;ng any material damage to the building.
Thursday night a fire broke out in a candle-maker's
shop in Leith, attended with several alarming cir-
cumstances • but we are happy to say that it wa-. soon
got under through the activity and vigilance of those
who attended, without any serious loss having been
sustained.

Tuesday evening, about nine o'clock, a fire broke
out in the house of Mr. Ws ia, confectioner, in the
High-street, Southampton, nearly opposite the Star.
Inn ; the flames burst violently out at the top of -the
House, and, for some time, the neighbouring houses
were threatened with destruction ; but owing to the
-.llmnes, of the night, the unceasing exertions of the
it .rnen, and of every one who could be of the least
• Tvice, it was fortunately got under, in the space of
'mut two hours. A company of the 77th regiment
I loot, and the volimtetrs, were of very essential
...;lity in keeping the street clear and protecting the
I Terty.

AMP/CM- liTlSfe

Two Grand Concerts were given last week, at
Norwich; they took place on Thurday and Saturday,
and were not only numerously attended, but all the
families of consequence in the country were there.—
Miss PARK, was the attraction, and however delight-
ful her rormer vocal exertions may have been, never
appeared to so much advantage as on the present oc-
casion. She was warmly N:ed on her entrance
into the orchestra, and sang sons, with the most
happy effect; the favourite airs of the evening were,
Farewell ye limpid Springs, and Nel car pin nor seri
cento, with variations of her own ; both of which were
e e)red. On Saturday Miss PARKE sang a bravura song
with the oboe obligato, in which she displayed all the
powers and compass of her voice, and executed the
most difficult passages with the greatest precision and
ease ; this, and an air of MOZART'S, with new varia-
tions, were rapturously encored, and repeated amid
reiterated plaudits. Miss BOOTH, a young Lady of
Norwich, made a very successful debut in a concerto
on the piano forte. Many eminent performers from
London assisted, and the whole was most ably con-
ducted by Dr. BISCKWITH.
