Fire w tou _Old-Kesi Road . —On _Wcdncrday evening , beeween seven and eight . o clock , a fire broke outon the premises belonging to Mr Munday , a carpenter and builder , carrying on _business in St Jamei ' _a place . Canal-bridge , Old Kent-road . The fire originated , it is supposed , from a spark flying from a lighted candle in . the lower part of the dwelling house , and progressed with such violence that in ten minutes the house waa one . sheet of flaine . . Se _^ veral parties at once set to . work to extinguish the flames , bnt without success , and the _workshopsand the piles of wood next became ignited . Several ear _ginesioon reached . the scene , but notwithstanding the immense qnaatity of water scattered orer the
flames , they were not subdued until the dwellinghouse , the workshops , and timber-yard were reduced to ruins . The damage done is very considerable , and the sufferer is insured for only £ 500 . _Independent of Mr Monday ' s loss , the premises of Mr W ickson , butcher , have sustained much damage , the roof of the slaughter-house being burned , and the back part ofthe dwelling severely injured . The buildings occupied by Mr Payne , shoemaker , have sustained much damage . .:. . ..

Holloway's . — se , not , or sultry weather , tne food inthe stomach frequently ferments and brings ori bowel complaints , which is at all times dangerous to weak arid elderly persons . When the liver ia out of order it induces heavy or drowsy sensations , the forerunners of direful diseases , as Dropsy , Apoplexy , Paralytic Strokes , ( tc . Such , aad other baneful consequences are immediately prevented hy a few doses of these searching Pills , while they speedily and surely banish disease when the system is already under its direct influence . Persons at the turn of life should , at so critical a period , take Hoi . _loway ' s Pills . Nat-oleos Bonapabie . —His fate furnishes a remarkable instance ofthe instability of human greatness , and there is no doubt that his dislike to medicine remotely caused his early dissolution : for rather than take some simple remedy , he allowed disease to gain the ascendancy over hi . constitution , and death was the result . Thus it Is that persons cannot he too watchful of their state of health , and being always provided with a safe and efficient medicine , such : as Frampton ' s Pill of Health , enjoy the two greatest blessings of this world , health aud long life .

Need we look further for precedents than Burden or Brougham , —who ence so great patriots as they t And who since such renegades ! Itis such ' creatures as they who retard the cause of liberty far more tban the people ' s oppressors ; they disgust the ardent , ridicule their principles , and bring into contempt the active and sin . cere advocates of freedom ; ' It fa mncb to be desired that the new blood wbich' will flow into St Stephen's , in the persons of Fox , Pearson , J . Williams , arid Thompson , will not be inoculated with the aristocratic itch ; ' that their eloquence will not evaporate in Dr Beid _' satmosphere ; tbat tbeir ' nerves will not be shaken by the aristocratic cock-crowing ; that their vanity villi not bb fed at the mahogany of a Lord Fitt-foodle ; that their bumble acquaintances will not
be shirked upon meeting them arm-in-arm with , or in the ' fashionable cabriolet of , a Sir .

I am led thus to remark ; upon perusing in the Stabthe report of the . ' Tower Hamlets demonstration / in . which I find the following evidence of a succumbing spirit on the part of Mr Q .

It may 'be said , tbat' the gentlemen ; in question are quite capable of taking care of themselves ; no doubt they are , for as yet the breath of slander has not fell foul of them , but go we thought of Brougham , Burdett , and tbe counterfeit Harvey . ' Wo all know evil communications corrupt good manners ; and that the danger arises from our aptness te imitate the manners ef others , when _^ ut before us in an attractive'form , and from , the pains taken to corrupt us ; and as the new Uooi men are now public property , they must expect tobe well watched , cautioned , and questioned , without taking of . fence at the publle doing _so _^ ' ' , ' ¦ " I - ' ¦ '"¦ - lam , Sir , your obedient Servant , - _'' --- " ' . _I'j .

I have never been ' misled , 'because I would not baled ; I am my own leader , and when I fail to be such I shall consider myself unfit for service ; the individual who requires

When , however , the people consider the question * ) fairly , they will . see that It is much more
rational to draw up a Hat of wrongs , and send to Parliament men who will abolish them , than it is to unite and petition men for rights who sever mean to grant them ; but , so far as I am concerned , it is immaterial to me whieh course the people take . One great error of ihe people is , in supposing that persons have an interest in bringing forward plans for the benefit of all .

' Ori the 3 rd inst ., as thedeieridant _was _^ street , a disturbance ' bad arisen owing to Baldwin using what appeared to bystanders unnecessary ; violence , - in compelling a vendor of fruit to go away . A mari' of the name of Edwards was passing at the time , having a large bag on his shoulders ; he remonstrated with the constable upon his conduct , when he . was at ence . laid hold of by Baldwin , and told he should take him to the station-bouse for obstructing him in the execution' of' his duty . The man put down bis bag arid refused to go ; several personfl _^ _lnttrfered , arid the 'defendant feeling that a gross excess _, of duty ; , ' _was _\ beirig _pursued by the _polioemaBJalsp _iri . terferre ' d , _aridadvisedBdwards if the police _constabio persisted , not _tolbarry his bag ; but as
_tbeconstable was the younger ; of ithe , two , , to _| compel him to carryit , arid he ( the defendant j ; would go fo the station-house and _ropreserit the conduct of theconstable to the inspector . He did so , and on . tbe defendant arriving at _thefaarlick . bili station , before he could see the inspector , Baldwin took him into custody ' and placed him inthe dock , making " a charge against him for obstructing him in the oxercise ofhis duty . The inspector refused to entertain either . of the .. charges ; and directed the . constable if he bad aRj- complaint to make to summon the . parties . Alderman Copeland said it was most monstrous that a tradesman of the City of London should besubjected , at the mere willandcaprioe ofa _police-constable , to ,. be . taken into custody aBd placed in the dock appropriated to felons , simply because there was a , fancied obstruction in , the . exercise ofhis duty . : Such an occurrence could not have taken place in tho _metropolitan district without the ' eonstabje ' _s _dismiRRttl . He should mark bis sense of the conduct ofthe
constable by dismissing the summons . There was also a summons against Edwards , which the alderman dismissed . . _,-.. HAMMBB 8 MITH . — Mobb _'RESPicrABiiiTr * A »» Petty Labcengi . —A . Waller , who refused . to give his address , was finally examined on 0 charge of robbery , while pretending _tobs in search of lodgings .. On Satur . day the 4 th inst ., the prisoner called , to see some lodg . _Irgi at the house of Mr C . W . Durnford _, High-street , ' NottinB-WH . .. Mrs _Dnrnford ' showed him the rooms . ' Whilo the prisoner was inquiring , very minutely , as to the accommodation , he suddenly , asked her if she would oblige him with a glass of spring water , at , which juncture Mr Durnford entered the room . He prevented his wife getting the water , and asked the prisoner , who
agreed to take the _apaitments , for bis name and a reference . ? Tbe prisoner accordingly wrote dowri _, 'Mr John Robens' as his name , and his reference ' Mrs Miley , No . 5 , Quintain-street , _Mile-end-road , " and quitted tbe house , saying he should wish to ; enter the lodgings . in two or three days . Mr Dnrnford , however , suspected at once the prisoner ' s ; abject was . plunder , and determined on watching his proceedings . He accordingly followed him unperceived until he saw him go to the house of Krs Spice ,. No . . 4 ,. _Kotting-hili-terrace , where Waller knocked at the door .. Knowing that ; Mrs Spice was 90 years of age , and bedridden , also that . if he went to the house the prisoner would recognise him ; Mr Durnford looked oat for some other person , and seeing Mr 0 . E ; Barnes , surgeon , oalled him to his assistance , and
explained the circumstances to him , Mr Barnes happened to be Mrs Spice ' s medical attendant , and went to the house . On being admitted , he found one of , the servants in thefronVpatlour . witb tbeprUoner , who wai explaining to her thathe should each morning wish his boots to have an exquisite polish . Mr Barnes immediately told the prisoner that he did not believe that he wanted any lodging , and ordered _, him to accompany him into another room .:.: The prisoner did so , and Mr Barnes dirested bim to empty his pecketa , on which he pulled out a pair of old-fashioned sliver sugar-tongs , and gave tbem up . ¦ They were , found to have been' taken from a drawer ofa sideboard in the front parlour while the servant went up stairs to Mrs Spice . to communicate to her the prisoner ' s application for the lodgings . He waa then given into custody .
On Monday a solicitor , with some members of the prisoner ' s family , were in attendance . His solicitor submitted tbere was no _oaso against his client , inasmuch ' as there was ) no positive proof . that the sugar tongs were Mrs Spice ' s property , or that they were in the drawer on the _> Saturday , not having beea seen from the previous Wednesday ,. Mr Bcadon . saidbe differed in Mo from tbat opinion . He thought that the case had clearly been made out against the prisoner , whom he must commit fer trial . . The solicitor trusted the worthy magistrate would : not inflict sueh a . disgrace on the family of the prisoner , who were of the highest respectability . He bad received a liberal , education , and it would be destroying him to send him to prison , as he would-ever , after lose all self-respect . After repeated endeavours of tbe solicitor te get a fine inflicted , during which the prisoner sobbed , and wept , Mr Beadon said
he did ; not know whether he was acting right in doing what he was going to do , when the inquiry showed that , had it not been for the energetic conduct of Mr Durn . ford and Mr Barnes , tbe prisoner might have had In his possession a quantity of more valuable property . Wben , however _^ he' was asked to temper justice with mere ; , heconldbutbear _inmiad the number of persons brought before him on similar charges - . ' . who were not so well eduoated . as the prisoner ; and therefore , although he would take the-case under _; the clause pointed out , be would not inflict a penalty , wbich be had been asked to do , as be felt he should not be doinx his duty if he did not send the prisoner to prison , with hard labour for two months . Tha solicitor , implored the _aaglstrateta alter bis decision as far as bard labour was concerned , and : remit that ; . but Mr Beadon firmly resisted the appeal , and the prisoner was committed .

Complainant : I hepe your worship will uot send me to gaol again . Mr Seeker ; I have no wish to imprison you if you find bail that you will appear , but a warrant was obliged to be issued to compel you to come forward , and if you are permitted to go at large you might probably keep out ofthe way , se that the prisoner might escape from _tblscharge on which he ha . been taken into custody .
