About three o'clock in the morning of Sunday se'nnight, a fire was discovered in a Yard belonging to Mr. Thomas Bromhead, of Duddington, near Stamford, which destroyed the produce of about 50 acres of land, principally barley, a barn, stable, wheat-safe, and hovel.- The farm-yard is situated above a mile from any dwelling-house, and from the flames arising from different parts of the premises, and smoke issuing out of the barn at the same time, there is no doubt but they were set on fire by some vile incendiary. In the apertures of the wall, which were made to air the corn, some matches were found, and it was not until the doors were opened, that the flames burst out of the barn. The loss sustained, including the building, amounts to at least �500, no part of which was insured.-Early the same morning, some corn-stacks, &c. were burnt at Head's mills, near Biggleswade.
