Pease, cf the revenue service, we learn that Callion:de is ours completely. The stars and stripes are fly ing at every tlag-staff, and the people (we mean these of Spimish extraction) are represented as being satisfied. The American population is nugmenting in large numbers. The taking of Monterey on the Pacific was done by Commodore Bloat, upon his own responsibility, to use his words, from a rumour only, which had reached him, that our country was at war with Mexico. Ilia last advices from the Navy De partment were dated in July, 1845. Commodore Stockton arrived at Monterey a short time before he left, in the Con grew, and hoisted h a flag on board that ship, instead of the Savannah, which having run out her time, and the service of her crew having expired, was to be sent home. Commo dore Sloat has nut been relieved, but is on his way to Washington (leaving Commodore Stockton in command of the squadron), fur the purpose of explaining his acts, and representing the state of that country.—New York Evening Post, Oct 31. IdoveneNra OP GENERAL KEARNEY.--(FP0711 the St. Louis Republican, Oct. 13.)—General Kearney, with about 1,000 men, left Santa Fe on the 3rd Sept. for the Rio Abajo, or the settlements below on the Rio Grande. It was under stood that he would descend to Socorro, where he was to erect a fortification. On his route he intended to visit Albu querque. s venty-five miles below Santa Fe, the residence of sx-Gover , Air Armijo. The position of the ex-Governor was not known. By some it was thought that he had gone south ; ethers believed he was still in the vicinity. Gen. Kearney expected to be absent on this expedition from fifteen to twenty days. AbJut threa hundr ed men, with all the horses and cattle, not on duty, had been ordered to the Calestello creek, fifteen or twenty miles from Santa Fe. General Kearney was erecting a fort on an eminence to the north east of Santa Fe, by throwing up a strong embankment, and coverin the exterior with sun-dried bricks. A good road had been constructed up the eminence to the fort. Its posi tion is such as to command the town and surrounding coun try. The work was progressing . rapidly. The General was rapidly winning the good opinion of the Mexicans by his mild and conciliatory course. All dread of the army was fast leasing the minds of the people, and many of them seemed pi' ased with the change of government, especially as General Kearney had promised them protection from the Indians. Upon the arrival of Col. Price's regiment and the battalion of Mormons, General Kearney would set out for California. It was understood that the expedition would be divided into three parties, and would pursue dif ferent routs, until they armed near the Pacific coast. One party was to take the northern route by Abictue to the Green River, a branch of the Colorado. Another division would go by way of S,corro, and descend the Rio Gila. The third would depart front the Paseo Del Norte, and thence across towards the mouth of the Rio Gila. This, however, was not certainly i.nown, as the General's plans had not fully tran spired. Monterey is to be the termination of the expedition, a distance by the nearest route of about 1200 miles. A very large ports , ri of the country over which either expedition must travel is represented as barren, and destitute of game, and of sui,sistence inr horses. [For the Money Market and Commercial Intelligence by this arrival, ace page 4.] SOUTH AMERICA. VENEZCEI.A.—By letters and papers to the 9th instant, Ivo have information of the occurrence of popular disturbance., growing out of the dissatisfaction of a political prty in Venezuela at the rcult of the late election for President of that republic. This party (called " Guzma nistos," from the name of their leader, Guzman) claims the electiou of their favourite; at the same time that it is decided ;hat there is no choice by the people, and, conse quently. the election is to e made by the next Congress. Gent ral J Antoni Peet, b the former , had been appointed General-in-Chief of the Army of the Republic, and had i•sueel a very patriotic address to his countrymen, calling upon them to auppre•s sedition and maintain the honouraii 4 tranquillity of the republic. It appears by an offi cial note that Col. Guerrero, commanding a party of govern ment tro. pit, had ene.untered in the plains, at a place called Lagunade Piedra, on the 28 th of Sept.' a party of the faction, namberinc upward- of •500 men, and had dispersed them, letting 100 dead on the field of battle, and a greater number wounded or drowned in the Tisnados. Col. Guerrero took no prisoners. The government of Caraccas had ordered the apprehen•ion of Gunnan, as the cause and prime mover then tumults but he could not be found until after mum search. The 'Puerto Cabello Mario of the 9th inst, says, that he ha,: beenhere apprehenere ded at the house of a female friend in Caraceas. Twfi ve candidates for the Prcsinency, General Bartolome Salom, General Jose Tadeo Monegas, Manuel Felipe over, Colonel Jose Felix Blanco, and Auto hi° Leocadio Gunman. The latter is popular with the lower classes, but there is no doubt that before this the factions are pat down, and government and order firmly established.— Balt. American, Oct. 29. COLONIAL. CAN AD.l.—Politics continuo dull, but they show symptoms of noosing. Mr. Hineks, the late inspector general, and the great gun of the Radical editors, has been into tipper Canada to address his constituents, in hope, no doubt, of a speedy opp atunity to regain his seat. The question of free trade will be a subject of discussion when ever a general election take s p lace. Upon one of the most practical parts of this question—we may add one of the simplest—viz., whether the 3s. on the importation of bread stuffs intended for re-exportation, should or should not be repealed ; the ex-ministerialists and their supporters voted for the continuance of the duty, and almost sueceeled in throwing out their opponents. At pre sent the whole of the press of this party is out in favour of the movement. This i s something like a sign of the times. The ministry who, some time ago, dis sented Colonel Gugy from the adjutant generalship of the Lower Province. have since offered him the post of police magistrate at Quebec. As the salary, however, is to be re duced from that of the adjutant-generalcy, 5001., to only 3001. a year, as the colonel is oat celebrated for a foolish humility, and as, besides, he is understood to be quite inde pendent of such an office, it seems difficult to understand why they should have subjected themselves unnecessarily to the certain humiliation of a scornful refusal. This is the more mysterious, as the colonel has not shown himself at all airy of his attacks upon them. In connexion with this subject, we may mention that the appointment of Col. Young to the se!jutant.generalellip has been officially approved at lance, much to the annoyance of some people here. The 2nd battalion of the 71st regiment has come down here from Kingston. It is said to have been ordered down on account of the desertions constantly going forward. Seventy men are understood:to have deserted in a very short time, moot of whom joined a recruiting party on the American shore. There seems to be very little doubt that these fellows went across in compliance with seductions held out to them by the authorities of the United States. Some of them liked their now service so little that they returned, and the rest were prevented from doing so by volunteers, who mounted guard over them until they could be sent to Mexico. The sericulture' shows have recently taken place in most parts of the country. These are exhibitions for prizes given by 60. (let", g. .t up by the people, but encouraged by government grants. There has been a sad accident off Sorel ; the boiler of the steamboat Lord Sydenham exploded as the boat was leaving that place. Several persons were b a dly scalded and five, includin g . a fireman and stoker, have since died, Very great mischief has been done by the recent gales. of weed.

Mr. Chapple had done p with respect to a ' hundred houses which witness had erected. lit. Chasple had never complained to witness that the work of those houses had not been done properly. Never received any complaint from the district surveyor on the subject. Gave the usual notices required by the Building Act to the district surveyor, which was evident by his attending . Could not my when he last saw Mr. Donaldson at the works. It was some time age when he saw him there. Saw Mr. 810 'in field, Mr. Donaldson's deputy, there oftener than Mr. Do- , naldson. Mr. Biers was also in the habit of visiting the works, and he expressed a wish that hoop iron should be sued to tie the walls, which was extensively d o ne. Attributed the falling of the houses to the wet weather and the number of men who had been running up and down the ladder and scaffold for some days before, which, added to the wet wea ther, occasioned the toppling of the chimneys, which would bring down the whole of the building with it, as it was all tied together. The Deputy Coroner asked Mr. Holmes if the jury were then to understand that the chimneys having toppled on a damp house had occasioned the fall ?—Mrelliemes replied that and other things together.—The Deputy Coroner said they had then come to this point, viz., that the accident bed been occasioned by the toppling of the chimneys upon a diunp house.—Mr. Bouning (a juror) wished to know the height of tee wall above the joists of the attic flooring.—ble Holmes: About twenty feet. The Deputy Coroner desired Mr. Holmes to explain to the jury what was the difference between the mode of building walls before and after the passing of the New Building Act. —Mr. Holmes explained that now wood must not be put into party-walls, which m ght be done before the pawing of the act. There was no difference beyond that. No wood bonds were now used. Thought houses built without wood bonds were not so safe, and that the alteration was an inju dicious one. Had heard many other builders say so. Buildings were more substantial with wood bonds, and the more safe. for hoop.iron bonds will bend. The reason for leaving out wood was to prevent the extension of fires, and therefore thought the benefit derived from the alteration was greater than the injury. The bricks used were Cowley bricks, which were c nwidered the best of brick.. Tho mortar was good, for he had seen worse on other buildings.—The Deputy Coroner having directed that Mr. Donaldson and Mr. Blore be recalled, Mr. Donaldson, being sworn, said that he had found no occasion to complain of the materials used or the mode of erection, except that they put bats, which are small bricks, at the foundation, when he wished them to put good bricks there. His duty was only to attend to the thickness of the wall. Mr. Holmes was building under an agreement with Mr. Alexander (the owner of the property), and Mr. Blore, his surer) or, had the right to object to any materials. Thought the lime treed good. Could not prevew: builders using hats. He had only to do with the quality of the bricks used, and not with the form or size.—Mr. Holmes observed that he had had several walls not raised very high fall, and so had other builders. The Deputy-Coroner remarked that if a wall falls without having the superincumbent weight upon it, it did not argue well for its security.—Mr. Donaldson further said that a house might as well he run up in six weeks as in six months, and, therefore, be could not complain in this case of Marc. The chimneys above the attic floor, fur the 20 feet, were one foot 10 inches thick, and when that toppled over it took the attic joists with it, which caused the front and back walls to doutee in, being in a green state. The number of labourers which follow each other closely in a string occasioned a con tinued rocking of the ladder, and caused the accident. The Deputy Coroner wished to ask Mr. Donaldson where he derived that information from, a; he was not himself there at the time of the accident.—Mr. Donaldson said from the labourer.. He did not know their names. Marra was one that told him so.—The Deputy Coroner asked if the facts which had been disclosed were known, before the Building Act was passed.—Mr. Donaldson replied that he and about twenty other surveyors were applied to by both members of the Lords and Commons for their opinions on the subject, and it was decided that keeping wood out of party walls would effect a great saving from tire. Ira building was examined after a fire it would be seen that the wood was all burned out, and only holes lett in the walls. Thought an iron hoop tie was as good as s wood one. No wood was now permitted in a party wall where there are chimneys. Thought more timber might be put in front walls.—Mr. Holmes being recalled, in answer to a juror, said, in his opinion, bricks only being used in a wall was no cheaper than if wo od was used. Mr. Blore, in answer to questions put to him by the deputy coroner, said he saw the buildings on Tuesday last, when he complained that there was not sufficient bonding in the wall, and told the workmen that they must take live or six courses of bricks off. He asked to ace Mr. Emmen., but was told he was not there lie then asked for Mr. Em melees son, but he was not there. He then saw Mr. Stock weU, the fore man, who told him what he desired should be done. Ile was of opinion that it had not been done, as the wall h id, before it fell, been carried up to a great height. Did not stay to see that it was done. Preferred bond tim ber, but iron tying does for it. Wood bonds were liable to fire. Thought, when he was last there, that they were getting on too fast, but he had no power to stop them. In his opinion wood was the best bond and tic to a wall that could poi-ably be had. Mr. Donaldson further said that wet weather had a great effect on buildings that were going on. He considered that the oscillation of the men running up and down the ladder and scaffold was very likely to have caused the toppling of the chimneys when the scaffold was removed, which the de. ceased and Collins were engaged in doing at the time of the fall. Mortar when used ought to be allowed to set ; for when it is moved by the oscillation he had spoken of it gets rotten. --The deputy coroner said he should then adjourn the inquiry until Wednesday next. A person in the crowd here begged permission, before the inquiry was adjourned, to address the coroner. His name was, he said, John Dewier, living in Chelsea. He was a bricklayer. and wished to give his evidence in defence of his order. He had examined the materials, and could give evi dence respecting them. The Deputy Coroner asked him if he was employed on the works ?—He said he was not, but he had examined the materials since the accident, and he wished the Deputy Coroner would appoint some eminent surveyor, quite un connected with all the parties, to examine the materials, and give an unbiassed and impartial opinion of them. The Deputy Coroner said he did not like volunteer eve denee, and therefore would not examine him that night. He might, however, give his name and address to the sum moning officer, and might perhaps be examined on Wednes day.—Strangers were then ordered to withdrew, and the deputy coroner rem lined with the jury for about a quarter of an hour, when the inquiry was adjourned at twenty minutes to nine o'clock.—The body of the deceased was re moved immediately after the adjournment to his lodgings at Kensington, to be " waked," and was followed by a large assemblage of his countrymen.

SUICIDE OF MR. ALSAGER. We have to announce the demise of the above gentleman, who expired at an early hour yesterday morning, at his residence in Queen-square, Bloomsbury, from the effects of injuries inflicted by his own hand on the morning of Friday, the 6th in,t. Mr. Alsager's official position and high standing in the commercial world as city correspondent of the Times newspaper, was such as to occasion extreme surprise when the painful fact first became known ten days since. For two or three days snbsequent to the dreadful attempt being made, Mr. Alsager was considered by his medical atten dants to be going on fasourably, and sanguine hopes were entertained that his life might be saved. On this assumption we have hitherto purposely avoided making any allusion to the painful affair, but now that the world has closed upon the unfortunate man the same motives for con cealment no longer exist. Mr. Alsager retired to rest at his usual hour on the evening of Thursday, the sth instant. On Friday morning he was tailed at 8 o'clock by one of his domestics, whom he answered in a collected manner, and was shortly afterwards heard to leave his bed. Huff-an-hour elapsed and her master not coming down stairs the servant again knocked at his bed-room door. On this occasion Mr. Alsager called to her in a tremulous voice to " come in," and upon opening the door the girl observed her master resting against the side of the bed with blood flowing from an exten sive wound in the throat, and a smaller stream issuing from his left arm, one of the viens in which had been divided. The young woman instantly gave the alarm, and medical assistance having been sent tor, the unfortunate gentleman was plead in bed and the best n cans at hand used to stanch his wounds. On the arrival of the medical men the usual appliances in such cases were adopted, and the unfortunate gentleman continued to go on favourably for some days. On recovering from the state of syncope into which the im mense low of blood had thrown him, Mr. Alsager conversed freely with those few friends admitted to see him. His re marks were, however, confined to general subjects, and he abstained from making any allusion to the rash act which he had perpetrated. lie did, however, more than once, in re ference to his weak state, express a hope that he should soon be better. During the early part of the week, and up to Thursday last, the unfortunate gentleman continued in a composed state of mind; so mach so, indeed, that on Wed nesday last he executed his will, and affixed his signature to the document in a firm hand. On Friday unfavourable symptoms first appeared; in flammation presenting itself around the principal wound. Every effort was made to arrest its progress, unhappily in vain; and after lingering in great torture for more than 48 hours during the greater portion of which time the unfortunate gentleman was in a state of delirium, Mr. Alsager breathed his last at two o'clock yesterday morning. For some few hours previous to his decease he was in a calm state of unfo mind, and his last moments were pe rfectl y tranquil. r tunate gentleman had attained his sixty-sezenth year. He has left a family of eight daughters and one son to lumen the loss of an indulgent and excellent father. With regard to the motives which influenced the deceased to the commission of the dreadful act, which has terminated so fatally, all remains a mystery at present. The inquiry before the coraner, which is appointed to take place this day, may probably throw some light on the matter. Rumours of unsuccessful speculations in corn as an insti gating cause have oozed out through the weekly journals; but it is believed they are entirely unfounded. One fact is generally understood, viz., that Mr. Alsager had ceased to hold the appointment referred to in the early part of this notice for some few days previous to his attempted suicide, but whether this had anything to do with the melancholy affair, it is of course impossible to conjecture. It should, however, be added, that the day on which the deceased at tempted self-destruction was the anniversary of the death of his wife, to whom he was most devotedly attached. TILE PREMIER AND MRS. MARSH.—A daughter of the late Mr. James Marsh having addressed a letter to Lord John Russell, requestinga pension from the Civil List for her mother, his lordship forwarded the following reply Dowaing.si ree t—Madam: I am requested by Lord John Iluraell to actsnosledge the receipt of your letter of the 7th inst., soliciting a pension for your mother, as the widow of a scientific man. In reply these to express to you his regret that he cannot hold out the pros pect of his being able to forward your views, IV the want of hinds would prevent him, even were he able, consistently with the stronger claims of others, to recommend Mrs. Marsh to her Majesty fur a pen sion on the Civil List—lhave the honour to be, Madam, your obe die nt servant, R.

ATTEMPTED BRIBERY OF A RAILWAY OFFICIAL. —The Sundaes Times understands " that some singular dis closures are likely to occur respecting an attempt to bribe a railway official of high standing to betray the interests of his company.

Mills, deputy coroner for Middlesex, held an inquest in the large room Of the Hoop and Toy Tavern, Old Brompton-road, on the body of James Casey, aged forty-three years, a bricklayer's labourer, in the employ of Messrs. William and James Emmens, builders, of Knightsbridge, and Notting-hill, who was killed by the fall of three new houses in Alfred-place West, Thurlow-square, Old Brampton, on the evening of Thursday last. The jury having been sworn, proceeded to view the body of the deceased, which was lying in an adjoin ing room, and which presented a shocking spectacle. On their return to the inquest room the following evidence was gone into : Patrick Marra deposed that he left the buildines about five o'clock on the Thursday evening, leaving the deceased and John Collins standing on the scaffolding, they being the e two " scaffolders." Deceased was quite sober. About minutes afterwards witness heard the noise of the fall of the first two houses. The scaffold witness had spoken of was round the chimneys of the middle of the three houses which have fallen. Did not know the cause of the houses falling down. Had never pointed out that the materials were im proper for the purpose, and that the buildings were unsafe. Never took any notice of the materials. Never thought himself in danger when on the works. Had seen the sur veyor come to look over the buildings, and also Mr. Holmes, the head-master, who came every day. Mr. Emmens was doing the work for Mr. Holmes. Never heard Mr. Holmes say anything about the place being unsafe. Could not say how often he had seen the surveyor at the buildings.—John Walsh deposed that he had been engaged on the works under Megan. Emmens as a labourer fur nearly a twelvemonth. Was not present when the houses fell. Did not leave them from any fear of danger, but at thewsual time of leaving the work. Did not think it was hispl to examine the quality of the materials used. The Deputy Coroner inquired if the man Collins, who was on the scaffold with the deceased when the houses fell, was able to attend and give his evidence 2—Martin, the able to sum moning officer, said he was no t. He would not be attend until the beginning of the ensuing week. He was injured on his bead, side, and arm.—After some conversa tion between the deputy coroner and the jury, as to the pro priety of an immediate adjournment, the deputy . eorouer said ho would first examine M.

SWINDLING BY ALTERING A CIIEGLIE.-..-A fatal similar to that upon a publican, at the foot of Blackfriars . - bridge, reported in this paper about a month ago, was per pointed to Friday. A stylishly-dressed young man drove la a hares and gig to the door of Messrs. Early and Townsend, drapers', in Holborn. Upon alighting, he entered the shop, and desired to be shown some cambric handker chiefs. After inspecting several, he selected half a dozen, and &eked that they might be Dammed, and he would eaD for them on the following morning, at the same time pa= 10s. as a deposit. He then addressed Mr. Early, and asks, if he could oblige him with a cheque upon his banker's for 81., in exchange for the same number of sovereigns, which be placed on the counter, remarking that he wished to send that amount to a friend ie WhitechapeL, and that he could easily forward it in a letter. The gentlemanly demeanour of the applicant induced Mr. E. to comply with his request, and he wrote a cheque for 81. on his bankers, Rogers and Co., Clement's-lane. The swindler, of course, acknowledged Mr. Early's kindness, and hoped that he would not be disap pointed with his handkerchiefs ; he then entered his gig and drove off. According to subsequent inquiries, the cheque, shortly after two o'clock, was presented at the bankers, a " 0" having been added to the 8, and the letter "y" to the word eight, and the correctness of the document not being doubted, Mr. Fuller, one of the principal clerks, paid the whole amount, 801., in gold. The delinquent then disap peared. lie is described as being 5 feet aor 4 inches high, no whiskers, light brown hair, dressed in a dark green great coat, with black neckerchief. The colour of the horse in the gig is supposed to be grey. WORKING MEN S CHESS CLUB.—On Saturday evening a meeting of working men was held, in Bunhill-row, for the purpose of forming a chess club. GENERAL REDUCTION IN STEAMBOAT FARES.— Yesterday, in consequence of the competition existing on the River Thames, the fares of nearly all the steamers under went a permanent and very extensive reduction. The fares are now consequently, between Gravesend and London, 6d. each person : between Woolwich, Greenwich, and London bridge, 3d. and 4a. each ; between the latter pier and Chel sea, 3d. ; and between London -bridge and Nine Elms Rail way Station, ?d.: a similar fare is also all that is charged for conveying passengers between Hungerford-market and Chelsea. Other boats ran during yesterday, between Lon don and Westminster bridges, at the extraordinarily low fare of one half-penny each person. DEMOLITION OF WESTMINSTER-BRIDGE AND CON STRUCTION OP A NEW ONE. — it is definitively arranged ' by the Westminster Bridge Commissioners, that the present bridge shall be removed. It is therefore intended to apply during the next session for an act to pull down and sell the materials, and to appropriate the proceeds towards the erec tion of a new bridge, which will be built from the eastern end of Whitehall-place, to Sutton-street, in the York-road, Lambeth. Powers will n!sn be taken in the act to allow the commissioners to make the fall swing new streets in cotinsx ion with the bridge:-Ist. A new street from the south aide of Charing-cross by the south-west side of Northumberland- house to the north bank of the Thames, near the end of Whitehall-place, passing over Angel-court, Craigs-court, the eastern ends of Great Scotland-yard and Whitehall-place. On the Surrey side of the bridge there will be a new ,erect in a direct line to the east side of the Westminster-road, to Mason-street, Lambeth. On each side of the bridge it is intended to construct large and commodious piers tor the use of the steamers plying on the river. The bridge will very much resemble Waterloo bridge, as it is to be constructed of granite. CAB AND CART ACCIDENTS.—On Saturday, be tween 12 and 1 o'clock, J. Goleford, aged 60, a porter em ployed at Hungerford-market, was knocked down and run over by a butcher's cart, nearly opposite to the entrance to the market, through which he received such injuries as to cause his death in Charing-cross hospital within an hour after his admission—ln the course of the same day, a young female, named Frances Hillerie, was taken into the accident ward of the above-named institution, wounded in such a friehtful condition, that her recovery is thought to be impos sible. The injuries sustained were caused by her being run over by a cab at Charing-crens.—ln St. George's hospital, Hyde-Park corner, on Saturday, a man of the name of Luke Chain, a drover, employed by Mr. T. Gunn, butcher, Walker's-place, Pulteneyedrect, Soho, expired, in conse quence of numerous injuries received some time previous, while driving a number of sheep along the Bayswater-road, when he was run over by a horse and chaise. The driver of the vehicle in question is in custody, in consequence of the accident having resulted, at least through culpable negli gence. Yesterday afternoon, a child, named Emma Thwaites, aged about 7 years, was knocked down and run over by a "Hanson " cab in High Holborn, through which she received such injuries, by her head coming in contact with the kerb stone, that it was found necessary to convey her to the Royal Free Hospital, in Gray's-inn-road. FIRES.—IN WELLINGTON-STREET, STRAND. — Yesterday morning, between the hours of seven and eight, a fire, that did considerable damage, broke out in the pro mises belonging to Mr. M. J. Pitt, a hat-manufacturer, No. 10, Wellington-street North, Strand. The flames originated in the front shop, and were discovered by one of neighbours seeing smoke issuing through the window shutters. An instant alarm was raised, and the inmates, after some trouble, succeeded in effecting a safe retreat. The engines of the parish, Linden Brigade, and West of England Company were prompt in their attendance, but the flames had, by the period they could be set to work, travelled completely round the shop, destroying in their progress the whole of the stock-in-trade, and extending from thence through the partition into the adjoining tobacconist's shop, is which they also did a deal of damage. The supply of water furnished by the New River Company being very abundant, a copious stream was discharged by . the engines into the , blazing property, which soon extinguished the flames. The whole of Mr. Pitt's stock of hats is destroyed, and the shop ' is burnt out. Had it not been f or the earl y arrival of the firemen, the whole of the building must have been I destroyed. The origin of the fire, or whether or not tho sufferer was insured, could not be ascertained. — IN UPPER THAMES-STREET. —Yesterday afternoon, at a quarter to four o'clock, the extensive five-story warehouse, belonging to Messrs. Edwin Edden and Co., wholesale drug gists, situate No. 154, Upper Thames-street, opposite AU -1 hallows Church, was discovered to be on ire. The alarm, having been given at the police and engine-stations, with all possible expedition numerous brigade engines, with those of the West of England Company and the parish reached the scene, where the firemen found smoke in dense bodies issuing from every floor in the building, which led them to believe that the whole of the interior was wrapped in flame. The I water being abundant, no time was lost an setting the engines to work, but it was with the greatest difficulty that the fire men could find out the exact seat of the flames ; at length, however, they ascertained that the fire had begun in a cup board under the staircase on the ground floor, and had ob tained a strong hold of the flooring. By five o'clock, the flames were entirely extinguished, but the damage done, more especially by water and smoke, is very considerable. While Girrard, sub-engincer at Watling-street station, was in the basement, directing water upon the flames, a bottle of vitriol fell over him, burning his coat and injuring his back. The cause of the outbreak could not be gleaned, in conse quence cf no one being on the premises. Mr. Waller, inspector of the City police, was early on the spot with a fire escape, which fortunately was not wanted. The same pre mises were totally destroyed by fire about three years si nee.— AT THE NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICAN COPFEE-HOUSE.— Last night, shortly after ten o'clock, considerable alarm was created in the immediate vicinity of the Bank of England, in consequence of the sudden outbreak of a fire from the North and South American coffee-house, in Threadneedle street, opposite the Royal Exchange. It appeared that one of the inmates was suddenly alarmed at seeing smoke issuing from a sleeping•room at the top of the house. Upon getting to the apartment, the bed and bedding were found enveloped in flame. Information having been instantly despatched, several brigade engines arrived. The mains in the district afforded an instant supply of water, and the engine from Watling-street station was got ready for work, but the fire men, with the aid of buckets, succeeded in extinguishing the flames, and without calling the engines into requisition ; but before they had accomplished their object, the fire bad penetrated the roof, and destroyed the contents of the room. The lower part of the premises, it is feared, must have sus tained some injury by water. Not the remotest idea can be formed nd a strong as to the body ori o r po n of the disa s ter. tiay asvlnswpeed the W omen in getting the flames subdued. nation."

NENAGIL—The Tipperary Vindcator sacs, there are fifteen hundred tickets given out by the relief committee to as many destitute families. In the Union Workhouse there are over one thousand inmates. There were one hundred and forty additional applicants at the weekly meeting on Thursday, of which but thirty were admitted. A letter was read from the commissioners about receiving more than there is room for in the house. Intense misery prevails in some of the lanes and alleys of the town, which should be cleaned by the town commissioner. The new works in the district are nearly completed. A few of them are advanta geous. Another evasion must be anon held.

THE IRISH MARKETS. DORIC, NOV. 13.-The receipts of grain to our markets arc again very moderate, the total for the week amounting to only-Wheat, 1,826 barrels, at 21s. to 355. per barrel; barley, 1,886 barrels, at 13s. G.I. to 201. 31. per barrel ; oats, 7,699 barrels, at 7, fid. to 17s. GI per barrel. With small supplies the trade in wheat is brisk. In Indian Cunt-meal owing to the mills not having been turned on, the manufac ture of the article has scarcely kept pace with the decline in the raw material, the selling price being still 161. 10s. to 171., whereas, taking the value of the latter as the standard, it should be saleable at 161. or under. Oatmeal, wheatmeal, and barleymeal are less inquired after, and less free of sale. Millers and bakers alike appear dbiuclined to make purchases, being evidently impressed with the feeling that lower rates will by and bye be obtainable.- Limerick The supply of wheat at lad Weilnesila)'s mar ket was small. Prices advanced Id. a stone from the previous market, the average being for red, 19d. to 21d. ; white, '2ltl. to 22d. a stone. Oats and barley the same as la st quotations. -Newry : Indian corn rates at 141. to 141. 10s. a ton ; In dian meal 15s. 6d. per cwt., and oatmeal 17a. 6d. to 19 5., according to quality.- Maryorough : Wheat, 335.

THOROUGH DRAININO.-Mr. Smith, of Deanston, the founder of the present system of thorough or surface drain age ant sub soiling of land, has arrived in Dublin, as we understand, to undertake the direction of the vast projects at present in contemplation for applying the money presented at sessions for reproductive works to that invaluable system. WARNING , To LAPOURERS. - PUBLIC AND PRIVATE EMPLOYMENT,-The relief committee of Thurles, county Tipperary, have found it necessary, in order to repress the exhibition of turbulence, and to protect private employers of labour, to issue the following cautionary proclamation :- " To the Labouring l'cople.-At a meeting of the relief committee of Thurles, held on the 29th of t) totter, the following lesolu tions, proposed by the Venerable Archdeacon Cotton, and seconded by the 11ev. William Barron, were unanimously adopted -Resolved- That we have eve, y reliance on the quiet and peaceable conduct of the labouring populatin of Thurles, and its neighbourhood. At the same time, we hereby declare most positively, that we will sot a second time recommend for work, nor give relief to, any person discharged from the public works by the cneincer or those acting under his directions, or who shall in any manner oppose or el:outlet them. ec Resolved-That as we consider that public works, though necessary at this time, ought not to interfere with the ordinary operations of agriculture, we will not recommend for employment any person who shall have left his work in the country, or shall have refused to accept work when offered to him by any farmer in his neighbourhood, at fair and reasonable wages; and if we find any Well person already employed in the public works, we will immediately withdraw our recommendations, and will re comu end the engineer ,o dismiss them.

The Mansion-house (Dublin) Relief Committee hate re ceived 1971. 15.. 2d. for relief of the destitute in this country, and 1001. from Moorfield's Chapel, in London. OPPOSITION TO Till SHIPMENT OF ORAIN.-On Tuesday last, a company of the Bth Hussars, who had arrived in Ennis Co. Clare, on Saturday, from Tulle, whither they had been ordered in consequence of an apprehended meet ing of the peasantry, together with the company of the 73d at present sationed here, and a number of the constabulary, escorted a few loads of corn from this town to the village of Clare, in order to have it shipped for Limerick. This mili tary escort was deemed necessary, owing to the determined op position which has been manifested by the people around that village to the shipment of grain. Even the presence of this military force did not deter the mob from rushing upon the ears laden with grain, and endeavouring to stop their pro gress. Captain Leyne read the riot act, after which the police found it necessary to strike some of the most deter mined of the mob with the back of their swords, in order to force them from the cars. This was at last accomplished, and the loads of grain allowed to make their way to the quay, when it was discovered that there were no boats to receive it, and they were, consequently, obliged to convey it present except kpagat Captain nth Leis Leone. There was no magistrate DEPOSITS TIT YAMMERS t 1 LOCAL BANKS.-Pcrhaps the best place to quote the following announcement from the Limerick Chronicle, is in connexion with the above: "There in the banks of otnheeyellodged ose of the recent har vest,Ln e i m v e err and by e s : sem, y l 4rgin r e f a y k seeutrsmday f at adding considerably to the aggregate amount.

The /famed, 18, Comnisnder Egerton, is on her passage to England, from New Zealand. She has been in commis-ion upwards of five years, having hoisted the pendant Oct., 1841. The Hyacinth, 18, Commander Francis Scott, is ordered home from the West Indies. She has been in commission upwards of three years. The l'enyeance, 84, Capt. Lushington, is to take troops to the Mediterranean. The Amazon, 20, Capt. Stop ford, is ordered to join Tice-Admiral Sir W. Parker's squadron. The Hecla, steamer, in the Mediterranean, and the Hermes, steamer, in the West Indies, are ordered home to be paid off. Capt. Sir E. I'arry, the celebrated Polar voyager, is to succeed Capt. Carter as Superintendent of Hasler Hospital. This acknowledgment of scientific services will be acceptable to the navy generally. Few officers on the list have better qualifications for the situation than Sir R. Parry, whose urbane and gentlemanly demeanour is universally known. The following are the particulars of the packets ordered by the Lords of the Admiralty to be built, which are to run from Holyhead to Kingstown; they are to be of 650 tons each, and 350-horse power. The Carodoc, constructed by Sir W. Symonds, to be built of iron by Ditchburn and Mare, and the engines to be supplied by Messrs. Seaward and Capel. The Llewellyn, constructed, and to be built of iron, by Messrs. Miller and Ravenhill ; the engines by the same party. The Banshee, constructed by Mr. 0. Lang, jun., to be built of wood by Mr. Thompson, and the engines to be supplied by Mr. Penn. The Co/within, constructed by Mr. Laird, to be built by him of iron, and the engines are to be found by Mr. Forrester. The T earer, a small iron steamer, with engines of 100 horse power, and fitted with the screw propeller, was tried again on Friday, at the mile in Long Reach ; her engines, which are on the vibrating principle, by Miller and Raven hill, attained a maximum number of nearly sixty revolu tions, but she did not make very rapid prescreen, the stern of the Teaser being square, which is apparently the worst form for the action of the screw propeller. The Ilosamond, s. v., Commander Foote ; the Sidon, Captain Henderson ; the Grappler, s.v., Lieut.-Com. Ilawkes ; and the Mats, a small new screw steamer, the sister boat to the Tearer, will pro ceed down the river on experimental trials in the course of next week. PROVINCIAL. LANCASHIRE. TN! AFRICA" EXPEDITION PROM LTVERPOOL.—Letters have been received announcing that the expedition got up and sent out last year by Mr. Jamieson, and others, for the purpose of exploring the Niger, with a view to developing the commercial resource* of Africa, has again failed. This is the second failure. The following is a copy of a letter read by the Commercial Association : ' Liverpool, November 9, 1948.-Bir,—lt is with extreme sorrow hays to communicate to you unfavourable intelligence of the Ethic steamer, and the consequent relinquishment of her re-aacentthe teeof Niger.—Capt. Becroft and Dr. King writs , that, when upon boon river, the vessel's boilers suddenly gave way; and that, although the engineer succeeded in repairing them, so as to complete the exploration of that river, they afterwards burst so frequently, as to rend A' it altogether unsafe to hazard another ascent of the Niger with them. Accordingly, the vessel has been laid up at Fernando Po, under care of Capt. Decrial ; and Dr. Meat is on his way to EntltauL Upon his arrival, a statement of particulars and acoauhts shall be prepaied and after having been submitted to the committee of subscribers in Liverpool for examination, they shall be laid before you, with the view to a call on subscriptions, so far, and also to obtain your opinion as to the further prosecution of the enterprise. I may here add, that the Gaboon river was found to be of no importance as a highway to the interior, not being navigable further than the tide ascended ;• say, some 50 to co miles. —,Sincerely regrett these untoward circum stances, I remain, air, your most obedien servant, Rosser JAMIIISOS. Tun Drre ox Tr.A.—The merchants of Liverpool are pushing the agitation for a reduction of the duty on tea, and on Friday circulars were received by, the Chamber of Com merce and the Commercial Association, announcing that a deputation from the association in Liverpool intended to f be in Manchester on Tuesday, and requesting the attendance o the members of the associations to confer on the subject. It is likely this subject will come very prominently les. More the commercial world before p ar liament again assemb YORKSHIRE.
