creased. After all that bas recently transpired, we
entertained a very sanguine hope that the Head of the
Slate would have retired to Windsor, to enjoy his cps-
misery comfort end repose. We learn, however, al-
?bough there are no external indications of it, that
Carlton Palace still continues the Royal residence;
nor can we hear, notwithstanding the rumours to the
contrary, that a departure from town is immediately
contemplated —(/hid.)
The statement which found its way into the Open

The Greenland Fishery has not been so little pro-

ROM PtR.ONAGE.—The recent mention of the par.
chase mil presentation of Scotch snuff-boxes, brings
to cur recollection a motto inscribed a few years ago
on an article of that description, which was bought
it Ediabures, for the purpose of presenting to a
Royal personage. It was a Mae Mall, mounted with
the eons) appendages of picker, spoon, brash, &c.
slid surmounted with a very fine Cairogornm stone.—
One thing, however, was wanted to render it complete
—as inscription; and the purchaser not having wit
?Bough to tarnish one, applied to the Edinburgh
silversmith for the rrquifits addition. The waggish
silversmith, after declining the leek as long as be de-
cently could, though meditating all the while on an
inscription that tuight he applicable to the purposes
of the iutecded donor, es well as of the boa, informed
his enquirer that he could not suggest any suitable
motto but me, and that hal a local and not delicate
allusion. What Is that i" demanded the noble cos.

ALARMING FIMB.--EDINIII7IIOB, Serf. 20.--Last
14,411 t, 'Wu eltven o'clock, a fire broke out in the
vetoed story of a house situated at the head of Lady-,
'eyed, West port. The building was inhabited by se-

of whom, in erecting their escape, occasioned greet
and immediate consternation in the neighbourhood.
The fire engines very soon arrived at the spot ; but
owing to a deficiency of water, the lire could not be
vat seder until the timber which sappored the roof
h•ame so materially injured, that it gave way and
the roof fell is, and thus completed the destruction
of almost every thing which the fire bad not already
reusutded, leaving only the hare walls standing. Some
of the furniture, but very little, was removed from the
.011se, before the flames had extended to all the apart-
'Dula. The son of Mr. Mae Stravick, who kept an
old cloths, shop on the ground floor, was serioasly
hart in the act of bringing out his father's goods. Se-
veral of the other inmates were conveyed to the Po-
lice-office, io a state of worthy, they having retired to
rest before the accident happened ; but we have heard
of no other instance of bodily injury baring occurred
daring the confusion.—Many of the sufferers, bow•
estrum's; Lave lost their all.
