It is believed that fluidal Kh an , the chief is question , has hitherto held aloof from the doings of his eastern clansmen, and that he will net now eftritgi it himself to support them. A reiefterennest of forty-tire men from each of the reginteats at p es haw ur left that @talon on the 13th ultimo to join the forces wider Sir Colin Campbell. By the last accounts from Cobol, information ha. been received that the A m „• r lhot !Unloosed khan is still alive, but in a very precariow state. The preparations for a struggle betwixt the Doses son, theism/ Ilyiler, and his brother Suttee Mahomed still kept the country in a state of the most excitement end alum, and many of the more wealthy of the Hinders bankers and merchants have fled into the neighhuaring districts lender British rule. Maharajah °hula!, Singh, the ruler of Cashmere, is reported to be in a dying Mate. Ile is said to be suffer. big greatly ftom dropsy, and in all probability will not long survive this attack.

On the Voil and inl ult. serious riots took place, during which • number of persons of both sects were severely injured by niimiles thrown at them. One of them, a Parsee, has siuee died. The troops had to be called out to the assistance of the police. and 100 men of one of the native regiments have been stationed in Sir Janisetjee Jejeehhoy'. meeting-hoose ever since these lath r disturbances commenced. A body of the I'ooea Irregular Hen.• has been ordered down immediately from Senior, and will be fuund of great meek.: in preserving order in the town. Mobs always dread coming into collision with a mounted force. A few day. ago a meeting was held at the residence of Mr. Lumelen, secretary to government in the general and judicial departments, at which the principal men of the 51aliumetlan and Parsee communities met together in the presence of the Chief Justice (Sir Erskine l'erry), Me.

This was agreed to, and the editor basing made the atereftde sought fur, in the prowess of the assembled heads of both castes, they now seem reconciled to each other, and there has hero no ezhihitien of a feeling of animosity on the part of either sect ever singe. The Priem , ' of ham, on the autho rity of • Lima lately arrived at Silshins from Lassa, states that the Emperor of China has just abdicated his thrones— haviag non: not it in favour of the usurper Tien Teh. The Calcutta papers notice a thvolfsil scent, nt which occurred re ce ntly e t the !Ins jid erected by Prince Goohun Ma homed at the corner of the rumtullah-street. The prince ha. been in the habit for many years past of making a distribution at the Musjid of warm clothing to the poor at the commencement of each cold season. This year. owing to the death of the Prince's mother, the acerptonod dole has been delayed beyond the usual period. On the Jay of the are Went a report gut abroad that the alms were to be dimolnited, and an immense crowd of beg gars collected at the Musiid, and, pressing upon one of the gates.rushed in in a tumultuous mam. The con.. queues was, that many were borne down and trodden under foot. Nine permits were killed outright, anal many were carried off to the hospital with serious injuries The Peninsular and Orien tal Company have, for sonar time past, suffered from a series of accidents to their steamers. The Hialostan, with the Calcutta overland outward mail of the Bth instant, took the ground at Mud Point while proceeding down the river, but was fortunately out off without damage, though she is said to have been for some time in rather a perilous position. It is supposed that she had struck upon a new sand bank, which was formed where two wrecked vessels had mink. The goeernorgenenil and the commander-in chief have both left Simla. The former is on his way back to Calcutta, and the latter is proceeding in the opposite direction, towaols the north-western frontier.

Our mosey market has, without any change in Bank rates, not improved its position, the reserve in supplies being even more stringent than before, and the pressure in Basaar financial affairs has been aggravated by further failures amongst the dealers and merchants engaged in the business of home manufactures.

The proceeding., which throughout were characterised by the greatest Unanimity, closed about • quarter before six eNdedg. Tee ether facts we may add, which do not appear la the 'Metal proceedings. A general desire and determination was expressed, teat as the men had threatened a strike, their object and intention should be tested, and that the question between the employers and employed, having been raised by the latter, should now be brought to some clear and definitive issue. We learn that individually nearly all the firms in this district have re ceived from their customers, for whom they are making mill or other machinery, in some cases under contracts with penalties as to non-fulfilment in time, the most cordial assurances that they approve of the course taken by the employers, and that they are disposed, under the eiream stances, to extend to them the utmost amount of indul gence that may be sought in the completion of these con tracts. Under circumstances such as these, lacking that which is an element of strength in some strikes, popular approval and support, it behoves the workmen to pause ere they take a step which, once taken, will assuredly prove irremediable. Up to last night it was quite uncertain at Manchester whether the operatives would pause, or were prepared to run the risks which must follow should the strike be persevered in.

They are com bining In put Mara rartabiasey, or, what is equivalent to the same SlM** asap bat ;tains makers shall be cm ployed In manerring machines, that require no skilled acquirements le asepedneasid them. The grounds for this demand are, eat a begs member of machine makers would be employed. Undoubtedly; but somebody else wield have to be dieseinaed is make roam for them. The fact is, the use of medium in machine manufactories his created a new dmommil he a @petite of unskilled labour which did not previously exist; but it has not only not diminish , bet actually increased, and that to • great enlist, the demand for skilled mechanics. The growth of our machine-making establishments is the best proof of Nis; and the number of skilled artisans now employed in our great manufactories, is a convincing testimony that the saving of labour in one direction has multiplied the demand for it in others. Is there • single workshop in Maachester that would not amply verify this statement? What right has the machine maker to demand that somebody else should be deprived of work to provide additional means of employment for himself ? le his indus try to be protected at the expense of men who have none of his acquired advantages? He is paid for his skill as • ma chine maker; but if he chooses to descend to the level of the unskilled labourer, the probability is that his services in that capacity would always command a preference at the market price. What he wants, however, IS a monopoly for himself at • higher rate of wages than the work is worth. He seeks to exclude for his own advantage one clue of workmen from the workshops, and insists upon being paid twin ma much into the bargain. Is this protecting industry, or meeting the right of a privileged clue? lies I not the man whose labour is worth a guinea a week quite as good a claim to employment as the man who thinks he should have two? When, therefore, machine-makers com bine to make their masters dispense with ono section of their workmen for the exOnideo benefit of another, what is this but an attempt on the part of one class of working men to deprive some other class of the means of employ ment, and to compel their employers to become the instru ments of their tyranny? Machine-makers have a perfect right to put their own price on their own labour, but they have no right to insist that the labour of other people shall be transferred to them, and that they shall be paid what they please for doing it. There might have been some show of plausible regard for the interests of labour, if the machine-makers had demanded that their own rate of wages should be given to the workmen now employed in merely superintending certain machines ; but no, they insist upon " the unconditional discharge of all labourers, or such class of persons at present engaged in working planing machines, or tools of similar character, and the employment in their stead of mechanics, members of the Union ' Here then we have a direct conspiracy of a highly skilled and generally believed to be superiorly intelligent body of working men to do what ?—to enforce any just claim of their own upon their employers ?—no— but to deprive another class of operatives of their present means of livelihood, for their own exclusive advantage. Is this justice or fair play ? Is there an aristocracy of working men entitled to victimise their fellows, and demand that any body of labourers shall be deprived of employment for their special behoof ? Stripped of the gloss which an affected defence of the rights of labour throws over the proceedings of this Mechanies"rrades' Union, what is the naked truth but stark tyranny, dictating terms at war with interests in every shape u sacred as their own ? The other propositions of the Union are quite as indefen sible, though not so monstrous, u the one wo have commented upon. They have put forth claims utterly in compatible with the heed conditions of trade. They have !sought not redress for reasonable wrongs, but the most outrageous concession to terms which involve absolute capitulation to atyranny as,destructive to the rights of labour, as it would prove fatal to the security of capital. We trust that the rash counsels which have precipitated the crisis will not be suffered to prevail in face of the exi gency that has been provoked. We are glad to learn that there is somo prospect of an adjustment, without the fearful alternative determined upon by the masters in case of any •ogle strike. The closing of all the machine manufactories in I.saiem sad Lancashire would be a most costly experi- Mat WI to men and masters. The inevitable result to the ossisaiss would be lose of labour and sure defeat. The bars se IMO he an appeal even to public opinion, much less he a asalest in which all forces, moral and material, would be arrayed against Nam. The grounds they have take vender compromise impossible without a surrender of all eentrol over their own establishtnents on the part of their employers. Their legitimate grievances are within reach of a legitimate remedy ; but when men assert • claim to "role the destinies" of a trade by denying all free agency to those who have their whole substance at stake on its prosperity, society at large becomes at once im perilled by the mere possibility of success to such extrava gant demands, and nothing lem than their derisive and complete discomfiture, at all hazards, would vindicate the requirements of the occasion.

THE RAWMAItSH COLLIERY EXPLOSION. The evidence of Mr. Morton, the government M ot mines, which was given in ortolan in yesterday's sor t y:w r ss, went to show the cause of the explosion and the degree of blame attaching to the various managers and servants connected with the colliery. Mr. Morton then gave the followingsuggestions fur the future regulation of the signet—lt will be needful in future, when a new beak is opened out, to light it for souse time entirely with safety lamps until the roof has become freely broken down. it Ls reasonable to conclude that if the No. 3 beak, which was comparatively a new one, had been worked with safety lamps the recent calamity might have been avoided. The trap-doom have hitherto been only single in this pit; they ought to bo double so u to prevent leakage of air. The oupply of fresh air at present is conveyed around this pit in one current only, but it will be needful ere long to divide it into two or mere separate streams by which the total quantity of air will be greatly augmented ; all obstructions in the airways and shafts, such as carves and cages, should be removed at night, and cages with open grating instead of solid bottoms are always preferable. It is dargerous to continue the golds of that pit iu their pre sent stagnant condition, and in future it will Ms much safer to allow a portion of fresh air to pew them, and thus pre vent them from being what they now are--extensive gas holders. It is well known that several of the great explo sions during the lot few years at Haswell and around Barnsley have been more or less augmented, if they have not originated, with the pent-up fire-damp of the goats. Any future emergency in this pit—and we know not how soon it may come—must in my judgment be met either by greatly increased ventila tion or by the exclusive use of the safety lamp. It is not difficult if fairly attempted to treble the quantity of air now passing through this mine by a modificatiou of tho existing ventilating arrangements. fhe airways are et present suf ficiently huge, their sectional area being from thirty to fifty square feet. The staple it which connects the thick coal works with the ventilating furnace is too small in diameter, its sectional area being less than that of the underground air-roads. Thu smallest diameter of this staple pit is six feet, and it should be increased to nine feet at least. The furnace ought to be entirely removed tram the five feet mine into the thick coal below, and the present downcast shaft converted into an upcast, and glee reran. According to existing arrangements, the upcast column is nut only the smallest in diameter, but the shortest in length, and, to make the ventilation effective, these cnuilitioua ahuutd be completely reversed. At the same time it will be ad visable to sink a new air pit, which might hereafter be used as a drawing shaft, from the surface down to the five feet mine, at or near the face of the north-west levels in that seam, (or the purpose of airing the five feet works sepa rately. Eventually the thick coal shaft, which is of ample diameter, and about twice the depth of the other pit, would become the upcast for the whole system. As the thick coal is now known to disengage suddenly abundant feeders of inflammable gas it will be rater in future to exclude ea much as possible naked lights from the return air-ways, and to avoid passing the return air over the furnace. The pro posed new furnace in the thick coal may be supplied with fresh air only, and the vitiated and gaseous atmosphere of the mine may be passed up an inclined drift into the upeast shaft without coming in contact with the flames of the fur nace at all. I feel quite satisfied that these recommenda tions and suggestions if carried into effect would greatly tend to improve the general condition and safety of that mine, and I am equally satisfied that Messrs. Charlesworth, with advantage to themselves as well as to the workmen, will act wisely in adopting them. By the Coroner-1 am clearly of opiuion that the ex plosion was caused accidentally by the fall of the roof in the goat No. 3 beak, which fall drove out the gas upon the workmen's lights. By Mr. Smith—Supposing the ventilation to be trebled might not a similar break in the roof produce a similar re salt ? _ . Mr. Morton—Possibly it might, but it is not my opinion that it would. Mr. Benj. Byram, of Wentworth—l have been mineral agent to Earl Fitzwilliam for nearly 20 years. I, along with Mr. Morton and other gentlemen, inspected the new 111110 feet pit at the Warren Vale Colliery, on Monday, for the pur pose of ascertaining the origin of the explosion. We found strong evidence that the tire had extended through nearly the whole of the workings; and from the state of the third beak, and from the direction which the blast appeared to have taken from that point, I am decidedly of opinion that the first ignition of the gas was in that third hank. In all material points I concur with the evidence of Mr. Morton. Wherever there is the least suspicion of explosive air the pit ought to be examined by the fire-trier at least two hours before the men go down, and the state of the goals, as well as the general air passages, ought to be care fully examined. In this instance the gas was no doubt fired by the fall of the root. I cannot impute criminal blame to any one, but there seems to have been a laxity of discipline in examining and reporting on the general state of the pit, arising in my opinion from the belief that there was no inflammable gas in the pit. Tho explosion proves the contrary. If I nad been asked my opinion about the Warren Vale pit a week before the accident I should have said, judging from oar own pits in the neighbourhood, that this pit was efficiently ventilated. Mr. Jeficeek, general colliery viewer, Sheffield, and Mr. C. Locke, mineral surveyor, stated their concurrence with the evidence given by Messrs. Mcrton and Byram. In he course of the inquiry a juror asked Mr. Morton whether he had power to descend and examine all the coal pits in hit district ? Mr. Morton said he had that power undoubtedly, but if he was to begin now it would occupy him two or three years unremittingly to make a personal inspection of all those pia. Hit whole time was pretty nearly taken up by occasions like this. . _ The Coroner remarked that under the act of parliament of the session of 1549 there were only four inspectors of mines appointed, and experience had proved that the num ber was decidedly too low. Mr. Morton, for instance, had about 2,000 or 3,000 eoalpits in his district, which consisted of the counties of York, Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, and Warwick. The coroner further observed that it was his intention to confer with government with a view to the appointment of additional inspeeton, in order that there might be an occasional anticipatory examination of mines, without which it would be impossible to prevent these Esie. mitosis accidents. At the close of the evidence, Mr. Charlesworth rose and said the jury would probably wish to know what part he and his partners took in the management of the colliery. The fact was that, having a number of collieries, some of them situated at considerable distances from each other, • personal superintendence was impracticable. That being so, they gave their orders to Mr. Goodison (in whom they reposed the greatest confidence), that the ventilation should be well attended to, and that the safety of the mine should be itedulopsly taken care of. He would now read a notice that the, had already got printed : " Notice.— ' Itawmarsh Colliery.—The proprietors order that no person be allowed to descend the pits until the bottom steward, or • sae that he has confidence in, has been down and examined the works, and reported them all safe. It is likewise ordered that the engineman shall not allow any Mu be go down until the bottom steward has reported Him all ash.—By order, William Goodison " That regu lades wield be enforced at all their collieries. He felt us 7 dialdthd for the suggestions made by Mr. Morton, and hs begged to say that, as far as lay in their power, NA se far as they were practicable and reasonable, they skald be carried out. There being no other witnesses for examination, the in quiet was then adjourned to Friday. THE BELPER MURDERER. TO THE EDITOIL Ol TUB ZIPRISS. 818,—In the account, in the columns of the Ex posit, of the murder of Mrs. Barnes, of Field-house, Belper, it is stated that the murderer (Turner) was a local preacher in the Wesleyan connexion. lam happy to say that this is totally inoorrect, and that the murderer has since, at the instance of an influential member of that society, signed a declaration, to the effect " that he never was a preacher of the gospel, in connexion with the Wesleyan or any deno mination." You will therefore, I trust, have the goodness to contradict your report in this respect, lest any scandal should attach to so respectable a body, by reason of its con taining among its members • character which would dis grace any religious society.—l am, ite., Belper, Dec. 31, 1851. Ww. Macntrr hints. A HIGHWAYMAN'S NOSE BITTEN Orr.—A Very extraordinary incident occurred teat Monday evening on the Carlton-road, about a mile -and-a-balf from Notting ham. It appears that about 8 o'clock on the night Ia ques tion, a poor labouring man was returning to his native vil lage (Carlton), from Nottingham, and in consequence of the numerous robberies that have taken place in this loca lity daring the last few days. be armed himself with • heavy walking-stick. Upon paring a lonely part of the road, two highwaysesnmade their appearance,and demanded his money. One of them aimed • tremendous blow at his head with • life-preserver, this blow, was, however, partly warded olf by the walking- tick, which was broke4by the force of the blow. Both of the robbers now engaged with the labourer, who, before he received any further material bruises, sprang upon one of his assailants, and, getting the robber's awe in his mouth, bit it to such an extent as to leave it attached to his face by a mere shred. Whether the fearful howling of hie companion intimidated the other highwaymen, or that they imagined their opponent was a match for them, is not known ; they, however, imme diately decamped over a field near. The police are in pur suit, and it is highly probable that the mutilations of the face of the robber may eaues his apprehension, and perhaps lead to the discovery of the whole gang. Finn AND LOSS OP Lion.—Last night at eight o'clock, one of the inmates of No. 10, Great St. Andrew's street, Seven Dials, perceived smoke issuing from • beck room in the house, and immediately raised an alarm, when Mr. Armfield, the landlord, on going up stair*, found Mary Manton, aged 50, dressmaker, lying on the ground nearly burnt to • cinder. The engines from Meters. Curette an d Delafleld were promptly on the spot, followed by the Lon don brigade, and a plentiful supply of water being obtained the fire was extinguished, when the unfortunate woman was removed in • shell to the workhouse. The house sur geon was promptly in attendance, but all human aid was in vain. It is supposed that the deceased woman accidentally sat fire to herself, as the candlestick was lying by her side. YESTERDAY THE SCREW STEAMSHIP CITY Or XANCRISTIa left the Mersey at two o'clock in the after noon for Philadelphia, with upwards of forty puss ere, and a very full cargo, chiefly of Manchester and Ellieftleld goods. The salute fired at her departure was generally mistaken for that of the incoming steamer, the Arctic, which however though twenty-four hours overdue has not yet arrived. I I I
