AN APPZAL TO THL IILNIANITY CF ENGLISH
LADIEi.—I: ha; been correctly ascertained, that
there ate, in the lace-makint; Counties, upwards
of '2C0,000 peer women and 'children entirely de-
per..len,. for support on making pillow-lace, which is
now reduced in price, through the introduction
of cotton-lace, manufactured by macninc.-y, that
their earnings will net, on an average, amount to
sixpence rer day, and thousands of them are, at the
present moment, in a state of statvation. They trust
that the Lenevolent dispositions of the Ladies will
prompt them to introduce, as much as possitle, the
use t,t pillow-lace in their vari6s articles of dress,
whici. will he the means of rescuing thousands from
the ,e;.ior.able state of distress and misery to which
they e now reduced.

FIRE.-Or the night of Wednesday sennight, at
o'clock, the house of Mrs. LYNN, in Est Cross-street,
Ilishorweat mouth, was observed to be on fire. The
doors were immediately forced by the neighbours,
and although the fire engine, and every assistance,
was si•eedily procured, the conflagration was not got
under till nearly twelve o'clock. When Mrs. LYNN
nts fouled, she pre-:nted a horrid spectacle, being
burnt almost to a ci.ider. Most of the furniture and
the floors of the house, were consirned. It is pre-
iirticcl that the deceased had set her clothes on fi-e,
and had communicated the flames to the furniture,
&c. Lieutenant-Colonel 13nowx, the Officers, and
sol,licrs of the .10th, attended, and their conduct was

Ltirious disposition.
