last a fire broke out on Mr. John Wanes% farm, and destroyed six
out-houses, a stable, and a rick of hay, alMnt six toes.
CHZLTS1111•111.-011 Wednesday evales a fire broke out on the
premixes of Mrs. hog, a widow lady, residing at Pardon-hill, about
three miles and a from Winehomb, which was found to be in a
blase. The barley-rick where the fire commenced was entirely consumed,
but the surrounding ones were saved.
Iwczwntsaure.—On Sunday evening last, about Sit o'clock, a
waggnn-house belonging to Mr. R. Reston, of Great Cranford, near
Wituborne, was discovered to be cm tire. which being thatched, and
containing 200 furze faggots, caused the fire to rage with very consider-
able fury. It is evident that the intention was to have emoted the des-
Itruction of the whole of Mr. Easton's property, which was within •
hundred yards to windward of the waggon-house. This property con-
sisted of seven corn-stacks, four large hay-ricks, and one of straw ; ad-
joining them were three bents containing about 130 quarters of barley,
a large number of outbuildings, nearly all thatched, and the farm
house.

rms.-1 Am night an awful lire entirely consumed the premises of
Mr. J. 0. Geller, sugar-refiner, William-mreet. The cause of this
unfortunate accident remains yet unlearned. Many poor persons in the
vicinity of the burning pile were induced, by their consternation and
alarm, to carry or their furniture, although they were perfectly secure
from danger. The warehouse itself was a very extensive erection, and
the amount of property destroyed must be veil! considerable.—Liwerpoi
