INSERTION OF PRINCE ALBERT'S NAME IN TUE LI-
TURGY.—The Gazette of Friday night contains an order of
the Queen in Council, for the insertion of the name of Prince
Albert in all Prayers, Liturgies, and Collects for the Royal
Family, immediately after the name of the Queen Dowager.
A copy of this order is to be sent to all parishes, and the
bishops of the several dioceses are directed to take care that
it is obeyed by the respective incumbents.
BURNING OF CAMBERWELL OLD CHURCH.—In the
early portion of Wednesday afternoon, the surveyor of the
Atlas Fire Insurance Company, in which the church is in-
sured to the amount of £4OOO, inspected the ruins, in com-
pany with several gentlemen. From the inquiries they made,
it appeared that the furnace which heated the interior of the
church was situate under the north entrance to the church,
and the chimney or flue extended to the flooring in the centre
of the middle aisle, and thence through the south side of the
organ loft, to the top of the tower. The account given by
the sexton as to the mode of lighting the furnace fire is, that
it was lit at an early hour on Sunday morning, and was burn-
ing till about eight o'clock in the evening ; and at no portion
of the day was the furnace overcharged, The circumstances
adduced by Mr. Searle, the clerk, and the sexton, that at the
time of shutting up the church after evening service there
were no signs of fire, and when the alarm was given by the
police, the organ loft was the only part that was in Ila•lies,
induced the above-named gentlemen to examine the base-
ment of the tower, which they did, and the result was, that
they discovered the origin and cause of the fire. It scems
that the end of one of the principal beams that supported
the organ loft has projected several inches into the opening
or centre of the flue. Soot had from time to time collected
on it,' and it is supposed that on the lighting of the furnace
fire .Qll Sunday morning, the soot must have ignited and set
fire to the beam, which smouldered until it came to the
wainscotting of the organ left, when it burst into flames.
There can be no doubt but that this is the precise cause, for
the aperture in which the beam projected is visible in the
base of the tower, and the brickwork around the flue proves
its having been exposed to an intense heat ; and also from
the fact that the organist and other persons who were in the
organ loft on Sunday evening, experienced a great heat dur-
ing the service, but at the time imagined it to come from
warming regulators in the body of the church. The bells,
eight in number, are wholly destroyed. It was suspected
that they fell entire, but it appears from the remnants dug
out of the ruins on Wednesday that they melted before they
fell. The portion found is fused into lumps. The spacious
vaults underneath the church have escaped injury, and the
coffins therein are perfectly safe. Late on Monday evening
the pillars in the interior of the church that supported the
roof were pulled down to prevent accidents happening, and
on Wednesday men were employed shoring up the walls. A
novel circumstance took place on Monday morning. A
couple were married on the ruins, and two funerals took
place in the ground adjoining.
