Yesterday, the firemen belonging to the County Clece stationed
in the Whittebapel district. and Banister, a turncuck belonging to
the East .London Water Works, came before T. **Leas, Esq. in
consequence of Mr. Williams, one of the parochial cherchwardens,
refusing to pay them the rewards granted by Parliament for their
attendance at a Ire, which occurred at the Pavilion Theatre no
Friday night. Mr. Williams accounted fee his non-fayment, by
stating that he understood that there was no fire whatsoever at the
Theatre, and that chi. could be proved by Mr. Farrell, one of its
proprietors, who was then present.
Mr. Farrell stated that he was in the Theatre on the night in
question, during the performance of the'' Bottle Imp " when some
persons in the gallery, he believed called out fire The audience
became so alarmed. that many of them, in endeavouring to male
their escape. leaped upon the stage. The only grounds that be was
aware of for the alarm, was, that one of the gas-lights in the boa-
corridor burned so violently as to cause a beam which was beside
it to become vet), much heated. It certainly smoked, and caused
a smell of fire, but it did not ignite ; and from having been almost
immediately on the spot, he could say there certainly was no fire.
It must have been at least an hour, or an hour and a quarter, after
the alarm was given, before be saw the firemen.
The firemen said, that although they had not been seen, yet they
were in attendance with the utmost expedition, and ready to give
their assistance when required ; besides, they added, there must
have been a fire, as part of a beam was burned.
►Jr. Walker said that it was impossible for him to determine
whether there bad or had not been a fire ; but as there was a doubt
on the subj• et, he thought that the benefit of that doubt should be
le favour of the applicants, from their prompt attendance on the
occasion—especially as the building was one of a public nature, and
in the event of its ignition, several lief, might be the sacrifice. lie
would therefore, under the circumstances, otder that the rewards
be paid.
A master baker, la the Whitechapel-road, was convicted in the
penalty of £ for selling two querttrn loaves seven ounces short of
the legal weight.

Some alarm was produced in Chiswell-street, and
which was speedily communicated to the City, yesterday
(evening, by a report that the brewery of Mears. Whis-
bread and Co. was on fire. Engines went to the spot,
but on inquiry it was found that all danger—if any had
existed—from an escape and explosion of gag, bad bees
removed by the promptitude shown by the worktres(T
