COMMODORE RnflEßs.-1t is a fact, not generally
known, that the American Commodore ROGERS is a
*Scotsman. About 20 years ago, his father rode with
the mail, then carried on horseback, between Montrose
and Arbroath. The Commodore was bred a bakers
in Montrose;but left that business early, and went to t
sea ; and being soon after pressed into our navy, ha
sock the firkt opportunity of deserting, and entering '
into the American service, where he has gradually
risen to the station he now holds. It was on his de.
sertion from the British navy that he assumed his
mother's named ROGERS/ his own name being GRAY.
DREADFUL FlRE.—This morning a dreadful fire .
broke_out in the back premises of Messrs. Bowden,
and Tucker, extensive Drug-broia►cs, in Camomile. '
street, Bishopsgate-street. The flames raged with
terrible fury, and extended their ravages along the
back of the Bishnpsgate.street houses, as far as to
Houndsditch, where several houses have sulfa-ed.
We are concerned to add, that two maid-servants are
missing, belonging to a family which ciranced to be
out of town. No estimate can yet be formed of the
extent of the loss.
