The scene of the occurrence is at the back of the Wee et the north end of Farringdon-street, and stretch jig from Skinner-stmt to Ttunagaln 7 lane. It appears that • the works nearest Skinner-street a vault, which had been Breed femme time, andwhichwaa formerlyoeenpied byMr. haece,wine merchant of Garlick-hill, was discovered bythe crime. Up to this time it remained unexplored, but • tbe tims mentioned sbove, two of the contractors' work men-4ns &blacksmith and the other a storekeeper—entered t, to what purpose is es yet unexplained. It is supposed bat they must have taken a light in with them or stook • Inciter while inside. Be this as it may, their &b -oat had nellibeen long observed, before a load report was lord proceeding from the vault, and shortly afterwards Ire two poor fellows made their way out at the Skinner street end very much scorched about the face and arms- Beth were at once taken to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, there they had their wounds dressed, and they were &tw eeds conveyed to their homes. The most serious part of the calamity was witnessed in Turnagain-lane, which ter. Instal the vault, the brick and wood work of which were blown eat with considerable force. A man named John Griathe was pacing near this place at the time, I ud the explosion had the effect of knocking him we distance and felling him to the ground, thereby wing concussion of the hips and ribs. Mr. George Rey' olds, reporter of the City Press, who was also passing up Temgcn-lane at the moment was likewise forced down nth great violence, and sustained severe scalp wounds ad other injuries. No time was lost in their novel to the hospital, where they now remain in great Jeering. The neighbours assert that a tamale was struck by • large piece of timber while passing, but nothing definite as to what became of her could be ascertained. THE FIGHT BETWEEN DAY.) MACE AND GOSS.

It says that: The net revenue of the half-year, after payment of intermit on debentures and preference charges, leaves a balance of 69,1561., as oompated with 56,7881. for the corresponding period of 1865. The dividend then paid was at the rate of 34 per cent., leaving 2614 to be car ried forward. The dividend now recommended ia ►t the rate of 4 per cent., carrying forward a sum of 4,5331. The position and progrese of the various works which the company are empowered to carry out, are detailed in the report, of the consulting and resident engineers and render it unne cessary for the directors to do more than refer the pro prietors to those documents. The new workshops have enabled the resident engineer to effect the extensive works of construction and repairs enumerated by him with great efficiency and economy. The company have not had any bill in parliament this year ; they have, however, obtained powers for their protection in the bills promoted by other companies which affect the North Staffordshire system. A resolution will be proposed to the meeting for em powering the directors to borrow 91,3001., under the acts of 1863 and 1864, for making the Leek and Burton branches, and the Silverdale and Market Drayton Railway. IMPORTANT LIFEBOAT SERVICE. LYTHAM, LANCASHIRS, AUGUST 4. During a very heavy gale this morning a barque me observed very near the sand banks off this place (says Et J. Edmondson). The weather was very thick, and the exact position of the vessel ooald not therefore be made oat ; but, as it waa considered that she could not possibly clear those banks, the lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was launched without delay, and proceeded rely quickly in that direction. Fortunately for the vessel, the wind veered somewhat more in her favour, and she was then enabled to escape from immediate danger, and the mimes of the lifeboat were not required to her. While, however, the lifeboat was returning to shore she fell in with • French brigantine bound to this poi and rendered eery important service to her, as from the ignorance of those on board she would certainly have gone upon the Solthottee Bank had not the crew of the lifeboat boarded her, took her in charge, and placed her in a part of the Channel where she could ride in safety until kought into Pert No charge will be made to the French vessel for din Important assistance. The cost of this valuable life toat was presented to the National lifeboat Institution 'host three years since by Thomas Clayton, Esq., of Fikeield, and since then the boat has rendered most serortant service to distressed vessels.

The samples, however, came to hand in fair average condition. On the whole the demand was in a sluggish state, nevertheless the rates current on Monday last were well supported. The show of foreign wheat was Reasonably good. Even the finest samples met • slow sale, at late rates. wWe w ere rather scantily supplied with barley, for which the demand ruled inactive, on former terms. Malt moved off slowly, at late currencies. The supply wee tolerably good. There was a very large quantity of foreign and colonial cat, on the stands. Good sound parcels were in fair re quest at full quotations, but inferior kinds gave way 6d. to 10. per quarter. In beans very little was passing on former terms. Peas were very dull, and prices bad a drooping tendency. In flour very little was passing, yet pleas were sup- The arrivals of grain end seed-bides vessels off coast were moderately extensive.

A Vow:eves& EIPRLLIED. —At the annual re view of the 14th Kent (Woolwich Dockyard) Volunteer Artillery on Saturday, the 28th ult., one of the members of the 26th Kent (Royal Arsenal) Rifles appeared on parade in a state of intoxication, and was carried away lace downward. The following order has been subse quently promulgated :—" 26th Kent Rifts Volunteers, Battalion Order :—Private M`Guinn, No. 5 Company, 26th Kest Rifles, is dismissed, in consequence of disgraceful coniuct at the review of the leth Kent Volunteer Artil dii key. —J . BAILER, major commanding." A very clever robbery was committed on Satur day at Glasgow. A gentleman had drawn 6601. from the bank, but before placing the notes for the amount in his dla pocket, he turned for a moment to converse with a friend, leaving the money on the counter. When he gain looked at the spot where he had left the notes they had gone, and no trace of them has since been discovered. Hr. Hawkahaw continues to be fully occupied . S with his investigations in the Channel, with a view to the ad selection of the site for the tunnel between England and Frame. These preliminary examinations will not be corn - plied for some weeks yet. In she mean time he is inun dated with all kinds of impracticable suggestions from all kinds of people. The most onoi nal idea, perhaps, is that suggested by one writer, of sinking an iron tube for the - trans to pass through, the tube itself to be suspended by • buoys in the Channel —Raihcay Pews. xd Some greatly improved carriages, just constructer' at the Longliedge Works of the London, Chatham, era Dover Railway, have been put upon the High-level Crystal _, Palace line. The first-class carriages consist of four comport '" ' manta, but the partitions between each two have been removed for about one-half of the height of the carriages. The stuffed backs of the centre seats accordingly reach only to about the shoulders of the passengers. In conse quence of this arrangement the carriages are lighter and cooler, and much be.ter suited for summer traffic than those of the ordinary description of first-class. The second and third class carriages are also considerably improved, and the whole of the cartiages being built of the same design and uniform in style, the trains have a vastly improved appearance. The carriages are coupled owe ~ , closer together , and the bu ff ers are shorter than in the old ni form of train. The trains of the South Western working the short traffic between Ludyste-hill and Clapham Junction are coupled up closely in the same manner, ad following in this respect the example set by the Greenwich trains of the South &Mem—Railway News. Hoisgs Fos Irray.—Two Italian gentlemen, Colonel Castillingo and Signor Bon. have been purchasing horses in England for King Victor Emmanuel during the last few weeks. They have bought altogether about 25 choice animals. Tea GERMAN VINEYARD& —The Moniker Vini role comments in the following language on one of the re- molts of the German war :—" Aa we foretold, the cultiva tion of the vine—that which demands the moat handwork' —his been completely neglected for the last two months an the other side of the Rhine. The props are not erected ; the branches are allowed to drag on the ground like the stalks of the pumpkin ; and the huda are not pared. The flower has been drenched by rain; the juice ts thin sad scanty ; and whatever may be now done there is no remedy possible. This is a great misfort. , se in a hums nitarian point of view ; but, as the mishap is irremedia ble, we must, as men, roa'm up our minds on the rub ject ; and as Frenchmen sod vine-growvls, we must, if ad not rejo'cle, a:: least congratulate ourselves in being the heirs to profit by the disaster.

The =favourable weather for the harvest, the 10 per cent. rate of discount, and the commence ment of the holiday season, tend to cheek any tendency towards improvement in the stook and share markets. The transactions to-day are ex tremely limited, and the few changes which have occurred in prices are mostly in an adverse direc tion. Consols have declined per cent. British railways and foreign bonds have also given way in some cases. Other securities are mostly quoted the same as on Saturday. Consols are now quoted 871 to for money, and 871 to } for the account (August 9). The rate in the open market for three months' paper is 8 to 9 per cent., with a good demand. The supply of money is considerable. There is very little business in foreign stocks, and prices in most instances are unchanged. The variations comprise a rise of per cent. in Turkish of 1866 and Italian of 1861, and a decline to the like extent in Spanish Pas sive and Certificates. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 48 to 50 ; ditto of 1865, 261 to } ; Greek, 114 to 1 ; Spanish Passive, 194 to 1; ditto Certificates, 144 to ; Italian of 1861, 51} to 52 ; Brazilian scrip, 41 to 31 die. ; and Mexican, 164 to 174.

The serious effect which is produced upon the lindustry of the iron trade by the present condition of the money market is described as follows in the circular of Mamma G. B. Toms and Co., dated on Saturday : The specifications for the Indian rails are not yet in the hands of the trade; they will, most likely, constitute a requisition for close upon 18,000 tons of iron, a quantity which is, of course, a mere flea-bite in relation to the enormous productive poems of our rolling mills now. Some of the home lines of railway are also represented as starving for want of iron, but as they are equally suffering from sore financial embarrassment, orders can not be given out while the money market maintains its present state of tension, which means nothing less than the direst ruin and destruction to themining and manufacturing interests of the United Kingdonf, let oar doctrinaire-. say what they may. It is impossible that the industry and capital employed in iron making, loaded as of late, wit h a discount rate of (practically) 12 per cent., an having still to encounter highly hostile foreign tariffs, can successfully contend with the cheaper money and cheaper labour of the continent of Europe, so that unless some important change takes place in these respects, the Eugliah export trails in iron may soon declire to a point that will, at all events, exonerate us from the recent singular reproach of Mr. Stanley Jevons, viz., that of ' committing national suicide," in every foreign ship ment we make of the products of our iron fields, because of the absorption of coal therein involved. In the meantime what is to become of the classes sub sisting by manual labour in smelting and rolling iron in Northumberland and Durham baffles all concep tion. The Welsh steam coal trade is reported as en joying the sunshine of high material prosperity, at a time when the cold shadow of unprofitableuess rests upon iron ; this state of affairs alone prevented that fell in wages from taking place which the position of the latter article required, as evinced by the notices given at the various works, but since rescinded. It has been argued — given, therefore, the maintenance of the present scale of wages to rollers and forgemen in South Wales, from the peculiar position of the coal trade—given also the con tinned silence of death in the lately busy iron works all along the Stockton and Darlington Railway, whereby a production of finished iron ro ughly estimated at 7,000 tons per 'week, is extinguished pro km., and probably ten to twelve thousand stout fellows placed in voluntary or rather union-enforced idleness—thatere there now to arise anything like an average and normal demand for rails, merchant bars, plates, or angles, Welsheironmaster must largely benefit by the strike in the north, as the value of Welsh iron would immediately improve in the market. Many parsons are sanguine enough to think that, in prospect of pesos and a gowl bar red, this result will even now certainly happen, ard but for the panic-stricken condition of commerce, and the chronic state of distrust which subsists, no doubt the worst of ,his ernes tairabuis ought to have been past and done with, so far as the iron trade is concerned. As yet, however, the most that can be said u that the week closes with less despondency and dulness of feeling than lately prevailed, without any desire whatever to make purchases of any kind of iron for forward delivery, or more than is I -vented for immediate use. Welsh manufacturers are, at the same tine, firmer, and in the event of a protracted struggle between the ironworkers and the ironmastem of the east coast districts, prices might soon return in Wales to, al all events, the noa-leeing point of 81. 10. per ton, f.0.b., for bars and rails, below which ve recently h they ha been selling.

The March Exchequer Bills were flat, at 7s. dis. to par ; and the June unaltered, at 3s. to Bs. prem. The dealings in foreign securities again consisted ' chiefly of sales, and prices experienced a freak decline in some cases. Turkish Bonds of 1864 and 1858 showed chief depression, and gave way to the extent of 1 to 2 per cent ; Brazilian of 1866 also receded ; ditto scrip, ; and Mexican, Spanish Pasaive, and Turkish of 1865, I. On the other hand, there was a demand for Russian Bonds of 1850, 1859, and 1862, which improved 1 to 1} per cent. ; Italian of 1861 also rose MINES.-(THIS DAT.) Os' °T way.
