Extraft of a letter from Lurd Ilk !IRV PiTTT to a
Gentleman of W,,rcefier
" I entirely agree with you, in thi.tking the introduelion of the
Ezell, DIAII iota private dwellings would be un every account ob-
jeinionable, If afmed by law ; nor have I ever contemplated it in
any other light than as an optional accommodation to the indivi-
dual, who might think it his Intereft to have the tax levied upcn
him in that manner. Finding, however, that there is an übjedion
to the 11.111 U of Excite. I (ball have no hefitation in altering the form
of the hill, and making it an 'Relied tax only in all cafes, fubjedt to
the abatements and modifications I have Rated In Parliament."

Friday fennight, about half pall twelve in the
morning, a fire broke out at Mr. Lbnd's, Borlthans,
near York. It originated in the front cellar kitchen,
and but for the timely aifillance of the engines, mplt
have done confiderable mifchief ; as, when dilcover-
ed, the floor of the room above was on fire, but
fortunately, by the judicious application of water, it
was prevented from riling, and happily estiaguifhed.

ThurfcLty a fire broke out in the Salutation Inn,
Perth, which did confiderable damage ; that was
increated by the report of a very combufiible article
being in the premifes, which prevented that prompt
affiltance necellary in fuch cafes; but, by the intre-
pidity of a Gentleman who rated to the fpot, that
impediment was removed, with great danger to
himicif.
