The violeree of the Nameisothan journal. the Di: Ihlcembre, fuotin.t M. de Tocqueville, might have been supposed to be the ebullition of • pea uncon trolled by au:hority. It might be taken to mean that the President was sorely amazed with M. de Tacque vine, but i• was not easy to suppose that annoyance went ea f r as to dictate the article of the Imperialist journal. It war so, however, and M. de Tocgueville to in c inhale e ci-grace—the effete of his fears and in decision. D• gt eat was the indignation of Louis Na peleon thin he wrote a letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in which be informed him that hie services should be dispensed with in future, and that provision would be made instantly for filling up . the vseant post. This somewhat harsh epistle was sulniitted to M. Barret, who succeeded in petunia ing Lou a Napoleon to pause at least for a dsy and we.. the turn of the deb ate on Roman affair,. Berri t pr mad to get up at a favourable moment to muse an twelve duper moue;, much more firm trim that of which I gave sou the wording two eay• since, end in which the letter of tie 18. h of August you'd be laid down as the indispensable basis of future I c 4. tin ye. Of course NI. d- Tecqueville is now certain to leave the mnistre. Should the ordrs du jour motel./ page, the crisis wit be c replete, and M. Ilufaure will have to reform his ministry, inasmuch as MM. Fall nix and Itullisre rill retire also. The effect of this will be singularly to enmplieste the negotiations going on at Rome ; and Austria, which has been preteadieg to support Franc., b cause she thought herself sure that the majority in tLe French chamber would bo satisfied with the multi pmpriu, cannot be rep vied with her known teiteenam not to raise fresh difficulties. In the meinwnile, the debate is going on in the Assembly with more than usual acrimony; the right giving way to uriperliamentary expressions to the fall as much as the left, which IS said to monopolise them. The applatne which followed M. V. Hugo's speech y. sterilay ;Wee not more to the taste of M. de Mou - alembert than hie eoLrints, for the latter cominsnced his speech by saying thee the words of M. Hoge had already received their punishment t y the applsuse which they had created. This utiparl ameritary language cannel an outburst against the alter from numerous members, and a recal to timer from M. Dupin. This was not the only salty of M. de Montalembert that occasioned noise in tt e amembg. His first words, which it seems were uttered in tie aluetice of M. Hugo, brought that re tleman to the tribune to-day to reply to them. Ha said that his speech was made in favour of the .1111. time of Austria, and be accepted the applause whisk M. ?e M witilemhert had stigmatised. There was other applause which he would - have for his mow" and that was the applause of the executioners of the Hungarians. After this retort, M. Emmanuel Arago rose and spoke against the project of law. He eonspirneed if the man priprio as insufficient, and as pledge MOM plidely one er • loom the sufferings of the Frew& sol diers and the services rendered by France. Bach was the responses of that tender mother, the church, uit had been oiled. The Pope would only enter limos at the tai of the SpaMards and Nespolitane, and out till the French had left. Toe Pop, might possibly grant soniettiog beyond the proprio mete, but he would do so for the Austrians. For them be would do eh*. he had refused to grant to Franca. The orator concluded by saying that France would have one day nought to register bat the word treason. M. Odiiim Boast next rose and said : I cannot allow the debate to close without stating precisely the question before the Assembly. There meat be no doubt. We wish the Assembly to judge, after hear ing of the stare of tains', whit the policy of the government has been, and we wish it to give us its adhesioa and Alp Ant. I shall not stop at tha re tiseretive reviews that you have been favoured The questions that you will have to balk is, whether the demands that the r ummest has made and intends to maim SIP exagurated. The assembly, by refusing the credits, ern pronounce that they are. No one had letter defend d the position of the French govern ment than Gen. Cavaignac. It had no alternative but to march t Home. And what did it find them? War. !cranes was compelled to conquer. K Barra then criticised the opinion of Out. Cemignac, who proposed to sive the person el the Pepe, but not his ay. M. Bonn thoeght_ otherwise. The Pre eiant's letter was oheriaW by K Barret as the exclamation of public erseseisece, and the translation of ministerial vote.. He admitted that the mein learn did not n alien all the demands of the latter, which showed that all was Dot plain sailing in nego tiating with t e Pope. But the ministry would not lee sight of its im. It never entered Into the in tentions if government to 0011 any Videlle• towards the Pope; but hie god intentions and liberalism were not to be despaired of: Notsionstanding his promisee to the President one moot pereisive much difference between the words of IL Barret ainl the words of K de Tosqueville. Both, Wad, are no hing but mere wards. It bmesses taste plain thee either the president most kick out the whole of his c thine, or that he must oblige the Wore. M lea, aid Montan mberta, b taking himself off. They ram quite as to force him to abdicate as the gentlemen Ernestine of Febrouy. 1848 , were determined to get rid of Louis Philine. It ?tan.= to be seen whether Loads Napoltee is so easily to be frightened. M.

The only re source was to get a waggon. The bullion was drawn, I bear, across tne bridge from Cologne to Dents by a team which would bare done hamar to Barclay and *dabs any sheet time. Arrangements tave been' made &adobe toads reserved to pay off in full berme the sad of the year, all the creditors of Madera, Ade laide without en:Vim. The creditors for estates pa:- chimed have been use called on to come and receive 40 per cent. on the amount due to them. Tie letter states that the creditor, which are not Liclusled in the above division are the state, the Cense des Depots et Consignations, and the house of Messrs. Rothschild. The letter also calls on all those creditors who bylaw,. or omission have not been included in the above dis tributions to send in their claims, which would have immediate attention. Alluding to the assertion made by M. Lagrange,in the Assembly, during the discussion on the subject of the jointure to the Duchess of Orleans, that a sum cf twelve millions was slue to the ex-King by the house of Gold staidt and Co. in London, M. Vavin says that, from information which he eorisiders deserving of the fullest credit, it appears th.t the ex-King Louis Philippe had, when Duke of Orleans, in 1814, a sum of about 500,000 fr. in the heeds of Contts and Co., in London, out of which, at the time of his visit to Queen Victoria, he drew to the amount of 300,000 fr. for the expenses of his journey, which bad exceeded his calculations, and that the remainder of that amount was used by him for the support of his family on reaching England, atter the revoluiou of February, until he had received further mama in pu , suance of the decrees of the French government. The ebove sum, adds the letter, was the only capital the ex- King possessed in England, as could b • clearly provid by the accounts of the civil list and of the private domain. The numbers of persons arrested for the affair of Jai e, 1848, which, at first amounted to 15,000, has been since reduced by successive libtraeons to about moo. SCIODAT, 11 A.M. Contrary to expectation, M. Odilon Ramat yester day moved no ordre du joss motirl, but asked melsey the necessary credits. It was a vote of confidencn the ministry waiver, and on the question of credits it took its stand. M. Barret denied that any dimen sions had existed in the cabinet, and, in the general, tone of his speech. was not a whit stronger than M. de Tocquevide. What the result will be to the mi nistry I cannot tell, bat the credits were voted by a ' large majority. The Assembly first gave its deciainn on M. Victor lingo's propos as follows The National Altera bly, adopting, for the maintenance of the liberty and ri.ihts of the Roman people, the principles contained in the letter of the president of the republic and in the despalches of government, closes the debate." Cries of "Alton* done" met this proposal, which was rejected, the close of the debate briug ini rely voted. Ti e several articles of the project of low were voted in mimes-job, the first by 469 against 180, the last by 407 against 168. Letters have been received from Constantinople to the 6th inst.

PRU at writes as follows BERLIN, Ocr. 16. The Austrian members of the federal commission in Frinkfort are said to be General Schooliale and the ex-minister Baron /Celia. The commissioners named on the part of Prussia can hold office only until the .ffeiclistog meets. That until that period liadowitz will be one of the two chosen by the court of Berlin seems pretty nearly certain. Tr.e governmea is about to lay before the Cham bers, at the same time with the Vienna treaty of Sept. 30, all the temper:Aloes connected therewith. The Verwaltungs-Rat addressed to the p.vern meet of Mecklenburg bchwerio, a note to prevent, if possible, the promulgation of the liberal constitution which has just been ivied for that duchy. For tunately the note arrived too late. The coostitution had been already proclaimed. The Norddeut•che Correspondalt, published I. Rostock, revealed this intrigue of the diplomatic ciuncll at Berlin, and has drawn forth some lame excuses from the ministerial Ehen. ighty Hungarian officers were expected to-night by the train from Breslau, bat only two came, neither of whose names are known to fame. The govern sent is exceediagly jealous of such sad pees them on to Hamburg or Belgium wi . wt} *bog them during their 24 boars' stay to very strict' surveillance by the police. Elspke, accompanied by an aidade-camp, passed through two days ago. A commissary of police was at his side the whole time he was here, which did sot exceed a few hours. At Breslau an attempt was made to serenade him. His arrival here was announced prematurely by the go vernmeat organs, it is supposed, with the view of pre vesting soy demonstrations ; foe ere the commandant of Cowan arrived everyone *eight he had already takes his departure. To-day the snood chamber held a sitting, in which the ordinances lensed in February, by the Minister el Commeros, Von der Heydt, fur the regulation of the guilds of handicraftsmen, formed the subject of debate. The first and snood classes of the ministerial bill were passed ushered. The debate in the Hest chamber, upon the 108th article of the constitution, is adjoined till to-morrow. Fired Effendi arrived at St. Petersburgh on the 9th. He was accompanied by hie secretary, Rend Effendi, ' the colooet of mutineers, Terra Bey, and Lotef Age, major in the Turkish guard. He bad not been re ' eened by the Emr, but bad banded to Count Narnelrato a copy tithe Sultan's letter to Nichols. Ocr. 19. Ujhezy, the civil commissioner at Comoro, and one of the most strenuous characters in the revolution, arrived this morning, by the lin-o'clock train from Breslau, together with 13 Hungarian officers. They were all obliged to quit Berlin two hours after for Hamburg, from which port -they will embark for &wised. On the 15th lass. an agent of Rothschild passed along the railroad to Vienna with bullion. Ile had with him 8 boxes of Live-franc pieces, which he said contained 20,000 pounds weight of salver. This heavy luggage retarded the pecuniary envoy considerably in tting from one ration to another, as no cab could be found, of course, which could drag such a weight, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 22. 1849, for their withdrawal. The king held 3esterday, in the new palace at Poto dam, a chapter of the order of the Black Eagle, upon which occasion Prince Frederick William, eleeat sin of the Prince of Prance, who attained, according to the laws of Prussia, his majority on that day, was in ducted with the usual ceremonies into the order. The minister of foreign affairs, Sch'utile, seems to give satisfaction to his employers, for he has just received promotion. From oberpresident ad interim of the province of Silesia he is raised to be ober president. 160 Hungarian officers are expected to ship them selves at Br. men for New Orleans. The adhesive of the Doke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin to the oiost:tution framed by the Coantituent Assem bly of the duchies., in spite of the frowns and hints from Berlin, and in spite of the aristocratic mime mince of his fellow Duke of Strelitz to submit to any emastitntion whatever, has given a momentary in tenet to these northern st tes. There has exiate d between these sates from ancient times a tie analo g°. to that which binds Schleswig to Holstein. The Duke of Schwerin is a ycurg man of five-and-twenty, sad the Duke of Strelitz en old man of seventy ; but their heritages are in the inverse proportion of their ogee, that is to say, Strelitz is much the smaller; is fact, many gentlemen in Europe have much larger private estates than the Duke of Strelitz'sterritory. This aged prince takes advantage of naivety' to seek fre quent counsels at Sens Sobel, and the matt excellent understanding prevails between him and the court of Prussia, in imitation of which, and perhaps by the suggestion of which, he ar.d his clique of old noble men, whom I can compare to nohing but the mer men and landgraves at the Bacchanalian supper in "Vivian Grey." think to push down the throats of the Mecklenburgers an oetroyed constitution of the mot effiensively rictatorial kind. There is now a row going on about this. The Vertealtqngs-Rath at Berliu, one et the mist offensive, impotent, servile diplomatic colleges that was ever suffered to bring a dozen pairs al spectacles together over the same green baits table-cloth, has, at the instillation of the Duke of Strata, sent a note to the Schwerin government, to admonish the • duke not to allow the, constitution of tt., Constituent Assembly to be pro mulgated ; which note, ss I stated yesterday, fortu nately arrived too late. The question now is, whether the union which has bither.o existed between the duchies is to czot any linger, and what Prussia will do? I believe that Prussia will do as she has done by Anhalt-Des.•au, and leave the Schwerin constioe lion alone, at Inset for the present. Aubalt-Dessau, singular to Fay, el joys unmolested, and heater several months erjoyed, the most democratic constitution in Europe, alt Inuah a tiny state, a mere sparrow cowering under the nee wing of Prussia. This Anhilt constitution was iu fact drawn up by Waldeck. Reference having been made to this celebrated democrat, who was then in the senith of h s reputation, uprn certain points, he found it quite as easy to furnish the whole draft as to find SMSWOIII to toe goes ions proposed to him, which dr.fe was accepted without in. sensible alteration. Wal deck is in jail. but his constitution yet flourishes on that little p Act of Germany : and not even the might of Prussia der •to trampl it out. But bad the re poblic of San Mail.° been but half as democnatii as the constitution of De-eau, Austria would have smashed that little I alien toy-republic long ago. This difference between the daring of Austria and Prussia he their reactionary career is a measure of the political civilisation of the east and west of Germany. Prussia, with all her bayonets, dung not outrage the public opinion of Eurepi to the same extent as Austria.

The bodies are to buried CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 3.—We extract the following from the Leipzig Unisarsol Gessits for Oot. 18 :—" We are will waiting to hear of the reception given by the courts of St.Petersbnrg and of Vienna to our answer. The Prussian ambassador is already spoken of as about to perform the ogles of mediator, zs rasa the political horizon should really lower. In the mass time thi government is actively employed is sappeesing the disorders that have broken out in se mazy places. Ships of war have been sent to the Archipelago, to sweep it clean of the pirates and others who infest its waters. An insurrec tion was lately announced on the frontiers in the pashalic of Monastir (Thessaly), and troops have been sent off from various penis to the d,s.urb=d points. An insurrection of the inha bitants of Orfa has produced mote uneasiness am.,ng the christiin inhabitants. According to the official declarations of the Constantinople Gazette, it was pro- voked by a census, which was considered as an un warrantable innovation. Provably, however, violent eseesses have been perpetrated here also against the &helium and Franke, the representatives as it were of that progressive mind, that occasions such innova tions; 0 least this is tainted by the Aleppo o rtespndent, for here the christian and Frank i-h saw with strong apprehension the de parture of the pasha with a great portion of his troops for Orfe to quell the troubles that had broken out there. The government has ordered a quarantine to be ob-erved in Trieste for all travellers ooming from Tricots, consequently from the west. Tne Lloyd steamer really hai a death from cholera, and several dangerously all on board. The line of steamers esta blished about siz months ago by the Turkish govern ment on the Black Sea, between Trebisond and Baum, has been abolished on account of the great pecuniary losses sustained. A Turkish charge d'affrires will henceforth reside at Brussels, and the Viscount of K. rektove is already appointed. Never was foreign, that is, Russian, money so ph ntiful as at resent; only rabies are to be seen, and Turkish piastres ors sought for at a premium. The govern ment and the bank have issued decrees against this Basilian coin, but cash in baud is more pawerfuL P.S. This morning a division of English ships of observation arrived here; as I just learn, they will help to guard the Bosphorus ; they were greeted by the Turks with a salute of 21 guns. MALTA, Ocr. 12. The continued absence of Mr. More O'Ferrall has occ'eioued a slight alarm to the newly .le ted Council of Eight. Although nearly two months have (Ivied since their election, they are not yet sworn in, and marl think they never will be. Malts, at this moment, has no 4overoor, or chief-secretary, or commander-in-chief of the troops present—they are all away on leave, and yet the machine works od as usual. There is a report that the passage-money by Her M jetty's packets is to be reduced considerably, to sr if that will not induce pawengers to give them the preference to the French and other steamere. Unit es the syetem is charged, this will be of no ter ei-e. The commanders of the steamers may be, and are, on this station, the kindest and most amiable of men, and are highly sp ken of by ail who tithe a passage with them; but the sy.tem which compels them to keep a one-gun steamer in all the apple-pie order, and severe discipline of a regular vessel of war, dew is, and will deter, many from taking a pas sage in them. Thus. if the rives be reduced, the government will still be a greater loser by running these steamers, instead of givirg the lines to the Peninsular and Oriental Company, who could do it at halt the expense. I am sorry to have to mention that there is a fear ful amount of crime committed by the soldiers now in garrison here. Se .rely a week passes that several are not tried by court-martial for insubordination ai.d drunkenness; or that three or four do nyt figure at the Police-court for theft or rioting. The article in the Doily News of the 18th ult. respecting the Roman refugees and More O'Ferrall has b en inferted in the 3fedsterraneo, with an Ninth translation. Tne Jesuit party here, both lay and clerical, has been so vexed and annoyed at the severe censures of the Lyndon press upon the conduct of Mr. More O'Farrell, in respect to the Sicilian and Roman refu gee!, that meetings have been held, consi,ting princi pally of a few members of the Chamber of Commerce, some government employee, and Jesuit priests, to take into consideration the expediency of erecting a tri umphal arch to More O'Ferrall on his re - urn ; and the tin of 1301. sterling has been subscribed by the imarilla to defray the expenses. HAMBURG, OCT. 19.—8 y as order of the High Cour of Just ce at Schlrawig, a commission has been sent to I)uppel, under the protection of Swedish sol dier., to investigate the affair of the destruction of the German entrenchments. A prote et of tbo chief clergymen of the duchy of Schleswig against the proceedings of the administration bed been published. At Flushing brawls between the Danish and German-minded inhabi•ants are of daily occur rence. A petition to the Jtitig of Prussia has been sighed by 670 citizens, and forwarded to Berlin. A similar number of signatures was diked to a protest against the annulling of the fundamental law. Oen.

Several meetings bad been held in the leading cities to concert measures for giving such of the re fugees, as arrived in America a suitable national welcome. The Ohio, Maryland, and Georgia state elections took place during the week. The entire returns are not completed. The elections for the states of Louisa .a and :Mississippi (the last previous to the assembling of Congress) will be held on the sth of November. The railroad conventions, at Men - phis for the 23rd, and St. Louis fur the 16h October, possess much general interest. A very large attendance was cer tain. Amongst the " notables " expected is Colonel Benton, who has been making a polittoaltoar terough Missouri. Considerable interest had been excited by the announcement of a history of the late attempt at in surrection in Ireland, by Michael Daheny, one of the outlaws.

DESTRUCTION OP FAITt PROPERTY BY FIRE.— Ose of the most 'strati," confligradens that has :eseerred in this ueiglibsuhood for many y.ers broke out at en early hoar on Teenday morning last. Tree spot where the fire originated was at the homestead belegging to Pinkuey's Farm. close to Maidenhead Thicket, in the occupation of Mr. Wiliam Peto, who farms a considerable tract of land. The farmhouse is cacepied by Mr. Polo's steward, who retired to rest about his usual time the previous ',gulag, and betwe.n 12 ard 1 o'clock In the night was awakened by the eraokllng of burning straw. He hastened downstairs, and discovered that two large wheat-ricks, standing near the read side of the yard, were on fire ; to raised an alarm, proceeded to the stables, and suer 'dad is Mesas' 'bout a damn valuable cartkorees. By this time the fire had gained head so rapidly that several large barns, all full of corn, were in a lasso, and, as the fire spread right and left, the seine was awfully p cnti and imposing. _All the stabling, outbuildings, and erire were devroyed. Is the latter. els fat bogs WIN ling. By daybreak the farm yard presented a complete wreck of smouldering ruins. Among the property destroyed. exclusive of the above, w ere SO lea than 16 large ricks, principally wheat and ey ; fur large barns tall of °ore, a large granary fell of thrashed oats, all the threabiegmachinse and other egriesltntsl implements, sad all the buildings, except the dwetling-house, which alone escaped detraction. The Tar sustained exceeds 2,0001., en emies of the buildings; the total loss being estimated at 3.0001. Petals unwed is the Sun Fire Office. There is bet little doubt that the conflagration was canned by an ineendiary, as the two ricks clam to the public road were first on fire, and the locality, in which an inttradiaty fire oc curred only on the previous Tuesday, is proverbial for the dark deeds which have been committed on the Thicket.— Oa Wednesday night, the 17th inst., a distractive fire broke out on a farm belonging to the Duke of Bedford, at Tone. has, about a mile from the parish of Thorny, Isle of Sly, in toe esseuestien of Mrs. Healey, supposed to be the wort of incendiaries. About a quarter of as hour before the fire was discovered, some hay had been cut from the stack which was first discovered to be on fire ; it quiekly spread to the adjoining apes, and twenty-three large stacks of wheat, barley, and oats, and two large ricks of bay were totally ennssmed 7 two stacks of beans only were preserved.

THE LATE ACCIDENT DT PIMLICO. This protracted inquiry was resumed this morning, at the Clatendon 'ravern, Kenilworth-street. A:the opening of the procredings the Coroner (Mr. Bed ford) intinsted to the jury that the only ;flint left for inns tiganon was the mature and quality of the lime, and to MOW , toin it he proposed to call tea chemist who had examined and analysed tt. Mr. Hopgood proposed that Mr. Phillipsshoulcl be teoalled and examined, stating that he had a fact to communicate 'thick would very much simplify the ioquity. The Coroner decided that Mr. Goideworthy Gurney should be the first witness examined. On the witness beiog swore, he said : I have inspected the sewer in quistion, and compared it with the sewer In Friar-street, Borough, which war in a very similar state. I there found the mischief to be deriv d from Vie gully-holes. I made the examination of the sewer on Monday. I a'so bad some of its contents, which were rent to in. by M. Lorick. Tne components were sulpburered hyi.rogen and carbonic acrd ges.hui matter, such as is common to all sewers. The p tint has been fully sicertained in Paris. The matter in this nes was precisely the sans Rs is commonly found in pent up sewers and cesspools. I (lid not firm anything pe culiar in this eras. In my opinion there was nothing re markable in this sewer, but you must remember that my analysis was a tooth one. I did not examine the lime. The Coroner.—Did you not examine the lime so es to form . an opinion as to whether it had caused the de►th of men? Mr. Gurney.—l examined it so far as to come to the con clusion that that lime vapour mused their deaths. I also ermined the bodies, end I sund them discoloured, as I Would expect to nod the bodies if men who had died from inhaling sulphoretted hydrogen. I have taken blood and applied to it teats which produced the colour it exhibits in the phial. (The witiom here produced a phial conteining the blood in question.) It is evloured by the application of sulphurretted hydrogen, and is simeltr to the colour obser vable on the bodies of the the e lelrdnere. Mr. Wells and the policeman I believe t e have been killed by choke de met. Thep bad all the appearance of non killed in mines. Choke damp is a m mere of carbonic rcid and emu,. The two lest came out alive and died gradueliy, while death by sulehur retted hydrogen is sudden. Coroner melted had the witness any information to give reelecting the lime waste. The Witness declined to go into that question. The gas from the lime-waste might have got into the *ewer, but if e supp .se that to be the cause of death, we must infer that all the other sestets in London are not dengemue, which is not the ease. Here, as in I'aris, pent-up sewers when opened emit deadly eases, and people fall down. The vapour of prussic acid may have been present, but the va pour usually found in sew. re was *efficient to cause death. lily opinion is that the presence of sutphuretted hydrogen in this ease arise from senate decomposition, present in all 'ewers, but of course more virulent and concentrated in pent up sewers. Accidents are quits common ire the sewers in Pans. Five masons were killed there lately. I should remark that eh:, sewer wee not traverl, and, there fore, not ventilated. The men, as they waked in, filled it timely up, end scud as a sort of 1 isten, compressieg the air to some extent, and rroeucing a propor tionate re-action as they retired. '(hers is a simple process now bring used in the greet towns of the north, by which the noxious gases in sewers is destroyed, and by which I maiotain the wbo.e sewerage might bo rendered quite in aozious. A•mospherie air is tea ed to a temperature of about 600 degrees, and passed into the rewer thremalt a sort of valve ; the cossequenco is, that the melons gases imme diately te , llll new combinations, and the mischief is destroyed. In bad eases a little chlorine is added. Coarser—Could not science susgast some means by which danger might be indicated to the men in time ? Mr. Homey Ater the moat careful coneideration, I have corm to the conciliation that there is no test which would s cure safety. A light would not be affected, and me to Dr. ire's test-paper dipped In acetete of lead, it would of course test the presence of Sulph : but "who's to bell the eat 1" The men who Lock in the paper would be instantly destroyed. My recom mendation in, end I nope that the jury witl recommend it, that before men are tent in to clean or ex mine any sewer re current of purnair, at the;ratenf three feet per second, should he passed through, and renewed at in t Is whilst they are weo king. The only can for the sewage vapour is to draw it off and have it destroec 1. With re sp .et to misting it through etioances it is ascertained that it falls again withtut decomposition upon the inhabitants. It hapeened at Vistas ar.d also at Amur erdem. Coroner—Would you consider it better to discontinue the use of lime eel use in this neighbourhood ? Witness—l would ratter not answer that question. A Juror—ll the end of the sewer had been (Tired the evening before the nuts went iu, do you think the men would have died? i thick that if the sewer had been orened the evening before, it is highly probable that the undulations of the atmsephe re would have sufficieutly purifl. d the sewer to enable the men to work insafety. William All.. Millar swern—l live at Tease-hill, Brixton. I am a elector of ose,deiee and professor of chemistey. I went down into the trench in Kenilworth street on the 19th and this morning. I found that the road ha . been made of various substance, principally gas lime. This latter was in two strata, the fled about ten inches above the crown of the sewer, the eecoed shod ewo feet higher up ; the layers were about tie ced i lla* inches is eleptb, and appeared to knee been shot there. A pinion was taken for me, also a portion of the mud and fluid contents of the sewer. I examined them in the laboratory of King's College, for the purpose of ascertaining whether there had been any percolation. I found no spot:t'ms of nereol Lion in the earth interyming between the lime arid the crown of the sewer, nor b two:EL the two lime strata. To ascertain it I rubbed the earth to dust, mixed it wit° water, and then applied the usual che mical tests. I think if it had pained through it would leave tome trace. The brick work wee prefect!, dry, and had no appearance of sewer. I then examined the contents of the 'ewer. 1 toned abundance , of sulphuretted hydrogen, hydro sulphate of amminia, ia fact all the usual products of sewage matter in a state of deoompeeltion. I could not distinguish it from the connote of a com mon mums'. I have also examined the gas lime, and in the lower stratum I found sulphuruus compound', hippo sulphates of lime, carbonate of lime, and some of the bras of prussic acid. The propertios of the latter was so small as not to exceed a pound in ten tons. Ido not think the use of the gas lime in this cue was at all dangerous. I should lay that no danger could arise from mixing it in a compost and making it into a road If it got into a sewer the proportion of prussic and evolved would - be to small a. not to be appre ciable amid the enormous quantity of poisonous gases com monly generated in sewers. The latter are quits sufficient to cause death. Coroner—Then you do not think It neoresery that there should be a public funeral of tame men, with the commis simmers an:were as chief mourner,. Witness —Certainly not. Ido not think the gas lime den genus. The health of the men employed in its removal is quite conclusive on that point. Crom-exernittod by Mr. Hipwood—l think the state of the sew. re was quite suffi .lent to modem death. Mr. Hopwood—Now, could sulphuretted hydrogen paw through the caustic lime ?—Yes, ie dilution, when It would be harmless, unless something should be present—an acid in the sewer to deedispos it. That was not the ease, as the 'ewer cratained alkalis, not acid. I found no lead of prussic acid in the sewage contents, but mew in the gas lime. It prussic acid were in the sewer, it would be then In solution, and would cot be dangerous except the men drank it. Mr. Hopwood—Now is it your opinion that the gas lime had anything to do with the death of these men ? Witness.—Certainly not, in as far as I could ascertain. There was abundance 01 other causes to account for death. I should mention that the matter which I experimented op.& had never been exposed to the air. Mr. Hopgood requested that Mr. Millar might be slimed to mad the report which, in coniuyettom with Mr. Phillips, of Craig*e-court, wed Mr. Campbell, he had prepared of Me experiments on the sewage water end lime waste. The report was 1 n conspire accord with Lie previous evi detra. The report, in conclusion, stated that if proper pro motioas had been taken of ventilating the "ewer' and the them with ehLride of lime the decided opinion of exam ying inen was that so loss of life would have been flee result. Mr.Hopgood tendered the evidence of Messrs. Phillips and Campbell respecting the ineezious character of the lime, but the career was of opinion that enough of evidence on that point bed bees received. After a diems ion Mr. Phillips was called, and mead that he was chemist and curator at the Museum of Practical Zoology. He had aecompanied Mr. Mid er In his experiment', except as re garded the mud. Ibis evidence was merely corroborative of the last witness . ' statement'.
