A moft alarming and deftru€tive fire broke 
ent on the 3oth of laft month, in the exten- 
five cotton manufa€tory of Mefirs. Wood and 
Bothwell, in Carlifle. The recent difafter 
experienced in this town, owing to the want 
ef a fire engine, was not, it feems, fufficient 
te convince the inhabitants of the neceflity 
of this means of precaution agajnit the ruin- 
eus ravages of fire. For want of this falu- 
fary preventive, the whole of the premifes, 
together with the valuable ftock in trade, 
was confumed inthe fhort {pace of three hours. 
A flrong wall fortunately prevented the new 
brewery from fharing the fame fate. A very 
fmall frre engine, beionging-to the caftle, 
was ail the affiftance that could be procured. 
What adds to the calamity, upwards of 200 
peaple have been thrown out of employment 
by this terrible differ. It gives us fatis- 
action to hear, that a fubfcription is new on 
foot, for furnithing the town of Carlifle with 
tive fire engines.

-A very liberal fubicription has been fet on 
foot in Liverpool, for eftablifhing a library 
and reading-rcom in that town. Not iefs 
than 300 perfonus have fubferibed ro guineas 
each to carry this ufeful inftitution into 
effect. 
In confequence of a-letter inferted fome 
time fince in the Courier, figned Philanthro- 
pos, ftating that the French prifoners of war 
were treated with great inhumanity, fed 
upon oftals, and confined in dungeons, a 
deputation of the mayor and magiftrates have 
examined into the a€tuai ftate of the prifon. 
Frem their report it appears, that every at- 
tention is paid to the health, the comfort 
and accommodation of the captives, and that 
the affertions advanced by Philantbropos have’ 
no foundation in truth.
