NELSON.
June 28.
By the explosion of a kerosene lamp a seven-roomed bouse owned and occupied by Mr Jago, formerly of McMecken and Co.'s, service, was destroyed last night. Policies in the Liverpool and London office existed on the house for £200, and on the furniture, jewellery, etc., for £400, and in addition to these Mr Jago's son, a jeweller, held a policy over his working tools, etc.. for £100. The loss in neither case is fully covered. Fears are entertained here for the safety of the schooner Dido, belonging to Mr Levin, of thie port. She left Lyttelton on the 10th instant, and has not since been heard of.
