On Wednesday, a tremendous fire broke 
eut in Little Friery-stveet, Plymouth, which 
raged for seven hours; and when it was ex- 
tinguished, about four o’clock next morning, 
four houses were burnt down, and one house 
pulled down, to prevent the fire from com- 
municating.: Three drunken sailors were 
with difficulty rescued from a burning room; 
nor would they quit, though the upper beams 
were falling round them in flames, untilithe 
engines were directed to play in upon them, 
which made them jump out of the window 
into the street. “The tars fell, like cats, on 
their legs, without receiving the least harm, 
giving at the same time three cheers.
