DREADFUL FIRE.

Between the hours of fix and feven o'clock, yeller-
day evening, a dreadful fire broke out in the back
part of Mr. Upton's (-whitefmith) houfe, in Talbot-
court, Fenchurch-ftreet. The flames communicated,
in a few moments, to the adjacent houfes, a ftationer's
and a hatter's, and threatened the neighbourhood
with a general conflagration ; the blaze mounted to
a prodigious height, and filled the atmolphere with
ft .mes, fmoke and (parks of fire, to a great extent.
The feveral fire-engines of the city arrived in a few
moments, but it was near nine o'clock before a quan-
tity of water, fufficient to work them, could be pro-
cured.
This, added to the rapidity.of the fire, the
confined fituation of the place, the quantity of old
houfes, which are here, literally, in clutters, and
chiefly framed in wood, increafed the danger to a
molt alarming degree, and every apprehenfion was
entertained, that a very large portion of that quarter
of the city mutt inevitably fall a facrifice tothe flames.
All was buttle, confotion, and chard's. The inhabi-
tants were teen running in all directions, in the ist-
molt terror and fright, endeavouring to . preferve
themfelves, and filch part of their property as they
could carry with them. Fortnnately, the great pipe
in Combat was opened ; and, in a fbort time, a plen-
tiful fupply of water being procuied, the engines
began to play with effeet ; yet it was fcarcely fuppof-
ed poffible that the adjoining hnufes hr Jerufatem
and Jerico-courts could efcape ; however, by the ex-
traordinary.exertions of the firemen, (non after ten
o'clock, they had fo far got the flames under, as to
prevent any further danger, and, at eleven, all ap-
prehenfions were at an end. It then appeared, that
Mr. Uptnn's houfe, the Ilationer's, and the hatter's
houfes, were burnt to the ground, and the rear of
leveret of the adjoining houfes in Jerufalem-court
and Jerico-court much injured. Upwards of thirty
were damaged more or lefs. Shocking to relate,
a poor woman, who was flying with the little pro-
perty the had Melted from the flames, at the mo-
ment the front of Mr. Upton's houfe WAS falling,
palled under it, and was milted to atoms. In force
time afterwards foe was dilcovered among the ruins,
but not a fpark of life remained; we underland the
PAS an induftrious mother of a large family. An offi-
cer of the 9th regiment of London Volunteers, who
,was (landing near the fpnt. was all, much broiled,
and obliged to be carried home immediately. He
was not, however, we are happy to Rate, Materially
injured. When the alarm drum beat to arms, a
large body of the Volonfeers, confilling of the N•nth
Regiment of .Loyal London, the Buthopfgate, the
Royal Artillery Company, and come others,
.ed with the grea.iett alacrity. By their•tiMely and
a&ive exertions. many depredations were prevented
Before mullet-
Before twelve o'clock, the fire was cotnpletely got
under, and feveral engines had -retired.
