MERTHYR TYDVIL, AUG. 12. On Friday a dreadful explosion of firedamp, that dread and destructive agent, occurred at Mr. William Thomas's colliery, situated about two miles from the village of Aberdare. The shock was felt for miles round. Soon after the fatal event a most me:anchol; scene took place—mothers hurrying in search of eons, wives in search of their husbatds, their cries rending the air as corpse after after corpse, bt:ckened and mu tileted, was brought to sight; soon 60 disfigured corpses were brought from the pit, and then, it having become fatal to descend to the pit, the brave men who bad, in such a praiseworthy insurer, rescued the few that escaped, gave over, though it was believed that there were a great many others down, living or deed. 105 men and boys were in the pit at the time of the explosion, very few of whom have 'ken brought out al , ve. Seven horses alsa were killed. it is caofidently as setttd that the cause of this most awful catastrophe wee the negligrnco of one of the colliers in going to a dangerous heroing without a safety lamp. It is scarce three years ego since twenty-eight human lives were destroyed by an explosion of the same nature, and near the some pit, TO Yltll soirwrr 07 immix,' IN IRELAI6.

VISIT TO THE QUEEN'S IRELAND. Satuidty's Express announced the departure of the Queen from Dublin and embarkation for Bedfast ; but as the hen. se of the hour at which the despatches were r ceived preclud.l our giving more than a brief statement f these facts, we now give more detailed accounts of her Majesty's progress, cminiencing with the following letter from our Dublin correspondent : DUBLIN, AUGUST 11, ATTEIMOON. The town wears • moat deserted appearance after the crowds of the week. All this morning the car riages with country folk were driving out of the city, takirg their occupants home. And people, after all the excitement of the last fetar days, wear an air of lassitude. The scene last night at the monumt of the Queen's departure was perhaps more beautiful then any part of the whole pageantry of the week. The vessels of war lay at right angles to the jetty, so that their yards were parallel to the scectatoes= and when every yard was manned they had a truly beautiful appearance, especially when the war steamers began to move, for the tars on the yards never quitted their re Hone standing, but remained, hulding each others hands, firm in their dizzy eminence. All the vessels sa luted, and the effect of the clouds of smoke rolling to a indward gave a mezzotint effect to the whole seen , breaking the straight lines of the rigging, and giving effect and back-ground to the animated pic ture. The cheering from the thousands on the shore was long protracted, and the gratification of the people at seeing her Majesty was immense. The Queen, ceming upon the large p'atfurm before the multitude, bowed, to use a common phrase, almost to the pound. She inclined her head lower than I ever saw her do it to England. As was said of Charles Kemble's inimitable bow, her Majesty's salutations were " demoostr.if cc in the highest degree.* In fact she could actively have hawed lower. The royal children were in the Nmk-ground, and followed after wards, and intense gratification was felt at seeing then all in a cluster, walking quietly, and dressed so plainly, and without the pomp of guards. Just as the Queen cleared out of the harbour, the rain which had been lowering over the Dublin moon- Mins, mane down, and the cry was Satire qui petit. There was a gen eral rush to the railway doors, and a scene of ruffianism ensued, in which ladies were beaten by police (!), end gentlemen and constables engaged in a general meth. For four hours after the Queen's de wtore there was a scene at the terminus of the Dublin and Kingstown Railway that brines all des criptiat. The rain best down in torrents, and a crowd of respectable, were outside the doors jammed together. Several people, in despair , though fur nished previously with tickets, got in outside cars (fur there were none covered to be had), and faced the road to Lublin in a heavy fall of rain. The DIM* Evening Pad has the following. With the sincerest pleasure we are enabled to announce that it is the Queen's intention to create the Prince of Wales Earl of Dublin, as a testimony and a rtcord of the beartlelt sati•fectiim which her Majesty has derived from the loyal (*slings and kindness with wirls she has been received by the inhabitants of the metropolis, and in eider at once to establish a eoneerion between his royal highness and her majesty's Irish subjects. The recollection that this title wee tome by the ills,- Mous father of her Majesty, whose claims upon the grati tude of Inahown have been so appropriately acknowledged since her Majesty came to this country, will render the revival of the title in the penes rf his grandson a sown of additional notification to the public. The Trince of Watts is also the Duke of Cornwall he tneiand, and of Rothmy, in 8c Aland ; and the title of Earl of Dublin will, in like manner, always hereafter be borne by gm heir apparent to the crown of these realms. KINGSTOWN HARBOUR, FRIDAY Evestsio, 6 o'cl.oca. The harbour presents a most animated scene. MI the yachts are dressed with their Bags, and the most astounding largo mobs of well-dressed people I ever Jaw packed together in such a space are on the jetty, and even the piers running such lengths into the sea ass lined with long lines of people. the steamers are pre,laring for starting, their funnels smoking, and the stall getting up. As usual, it is Queen Victoria's own weather. The ass is delightfully calm. Num bers capnot get down in time to witness the de parture. On arriving, at a little after 2 o'clock, at the railway terminus, I found all the entrances blacked up. I mounted on a car, and eame off hero as fast u I could. The scene on the road down baffles all description; it was really a perilous undertaking, from the rushing of all kinds of vehicles, public and private. I was often reminded of Lady Morgan's de scription of an Iris!: jaunting car, " a short proems to diatom' ion " The crow& are beyond all description. All Dub fin seem to base come down bete, and how we are to get beck will puzzle us in a f e w bon n e, so man y *ill try to get home .n order to be at the ball to-night. The roads about are all crammed with C3lTiOrB of all triode, drawn up in rows and filled with ladies. The whole memo is gay, exhilarating, and I h is joy ARRIVAL AT THE TERMINUS, WESTLAND-ROW. Prom so wily • period as tea o'c'oek there were crowds treetrub:ed l this locality. The windows were filled with fair occepinta, anxiously expecting • farewell look at the lances. 1 A guard of himear of the 71st Regt , with band, trumpets, I sad colours, and the band of the 48th Regt., was present to native the royal party. The Freenson'a Journal says; fa the earlier part of the day our citizens, knowing that the Qum had travelled into the nest county of Kildare, and would remain moil sown time in the ahem gin at Carton, on her visit to the Duke of Leiester, continued in the pursuit of their ordinary avoca 'iona, not :caring to lose the business advantages alai& the crow& now in Dahlia afforded ; but about two o'clock the applicants foe this..as at the Westland row offices bream more urgent, Crowds pretext in as each train was about to start, till about the hour of three o'clock, whin the pressure of people became so enormous par ticularly in the second-caw department, that it Income me. menu to clue the office against further trocaiscuous intros., and to allow nnly so many is as It was calculated would fill (melt succeeding train. Before this system, however, had been carried into previa', and when the dcors were first shut, sa hameasecrowd of persons, all of the more respectable class, were, we must not say congregated, but crammed into the space between the doors and we ticket offices inside. All egress upwards was prevented by the closing cattle gates lead ing to droplet:ors stain, and all escape outwards was put rut of the question by the pressure of the crowd within against the doors leading to the lottest. All were jammed seainst each other so closely that there was no room to move hand or limb; the heat sudepressure became intense, the cries for air, sir, and the shrieks of females eulogies' with the angry adjurations of men suffering the aeo.t dreadful pressure to order to save sisters, mothers, or wives, from what seemed to he positive destruction. It was, in short, the black-hole of Calcutta *mew/ at modifi 4. A cry arose that ladies were SWOODinit , and the confusion and dismay was fearful, whilst • hundred voices, husky wi h exhaustion, celled kr " air, air." A gentleman near the window at this juncture (we were toll a director of the company), seeing tho ezhatrited and suffocating condition of the 'tit terers around him, deliberately disengaged his umbrella, and with Sits ferule smashed every pane of glass in the window fume, thus letting in a welcome current of fresh air oat the saflocitirg crowd. He was thanked in many a grateful and long-drawn breath by the sufferers. At length the bell rang above, the gates leading to the pl rtforna were opeatd, and • rash kook place in which sauce gds pad was the order of the day. At • few minutes before 6 o'clock the arrival of the Mar to s of Lensdowne, Lord and Lady Suirdale, and other dis tinguish, d persons, gave note of the apf roach of royalty, and at 6 o'clock the royal corrdge arrived, with an escort of the earalsineers and outriders. Her Majesty, the Prince, and the rest of the royal family, having entered the royal railway carriage, and the remainder of the party the first-class carrilres allotted for their amnia mod Ition, the train, at 12 minutes past 6, left Westland-rum te riotous. The train proceeded at the ordinary pace, and ',try roof top, every wind ier of the houses on either side, added their coutiogeats of expressive loyalty and attention. Every hedge-row from which a glimpse could be caught was rife with joy and animation. The walls of Beggar's bash Barracks iniVlel with additive waving their caps; the stations on the line afforded an easy opportunity of seeing the train, and advantage was most gladly seixed upon by anxious ocespaats—asen, women, and childreo, to swell the general enthusiasm. Indeed, the whole progria, might be considered as if lined wish human beings, young and old, rich a-cl ptar, ell maul estiog the one rneruns spontaneous reeling of love and loyalty. ARRIVAL AT KINGSTOWN. When public interest was excited to the utmost, and the vast crowds had been, through their anxiety, subjected to several disappointment", the bud swell of numberless voices at length proclaimed the fact that her gracious Ma jesty and her illustrious consort had reached the terminus. As the royal train neared this point, the shouting of the people extended along the line of railing opposite Rash borne's Hotel was most enthusiastic, end the tidings of the Queen's arrival was heralded along the line with electric rapidity. The reception-room at the railway was most tastefully or namented with evergreens and shrubs from the gardens of the Royal Dublin Society and the College Botanical Gardens; but the grand coup &ail was that offered when the Queen and Prince Albert, with the princes and princesses, advanced upon the terrau, and gazed around upon the uplifted counte nances that far and near were directed to the one distinguish ing point. The eye of royalty rested on the distant east pier, black with the congregated multitudes ; then on the splendid array below and within the privileged barriers; and although the weather was then lowering and dark, occasional breaks in the clouds, revealing the blue above, brought out the distsat landscape in clear relief, and Killiney Hill, Howth, and the several datinguisLing characteristics of the bay were sufiriently observable. The guard of honour consisted of a company of each of the infantry regiments In garrison— the lot Royals, 24 Queen's Own, the 40th, 48th, 65th, 60th Rifles, and 71st Highland Light Infantry. The em barkation took plane at twenty minutes to seven o'clock, and it was a sight to be remembered for a life, the ardent devotion manifested as the vessel was about to depart. It was a scene to dwell upon in the memory rather than to describe, and including in it many of those minute traits which would lose hail of their charm and grace in the narration. THE EMBARKATION. Jut previous to her Majest)'s embarkation, the Earl of Cfarendon presented George Roe, Esq., to the Sovereign, when her Majesty was most graciously pleased to esprees her perfect satisfaction at all the arrangements made by the Dublin and Kingston Railway Company for her Ma jesty's reeeptien sad departure. Her Majesty having em braced his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge sad the Countess, of Clarendon, and meet cordially taken leave of the Earl of Clarendon, and the other distinguished personages by whom she had been attended to Kingstown, the gangway was drawn on shore, and the Victoria ant Albert was east 411 from the quay. Lieutenant Hutchison had the high honour of taking the steamer into the bay, paring slowly round the inside of the east pier, and on approaching the lighthouse her Majesty, the Prince, and royal children mounted the starboard paddle box, when the vast multitnde which covered the pier cheered most enthusiastically, when the noble Prince, the commodore, his officers, end seamen of the royal yacht, returned the plaudits of the grateful and loyal respects of her Irish sub ' jects with three hearty cheers. Her Majesty remained for a censiderable time on this elevated stand admiring the same, and Lord Adolphus Fitselarrnee honoured Lieut. Hutchison by iatrodumng him to his Royal Highneu Prince Albert, who stated he wee gaits satisfied with the arrangements in the harbour, and the moaner he had per formed his duty from this entering in until the departure of the royal squadros. The manner in which the steamers and yachts left the harbour, following the royal yacht, was ea picturesque and animatind as ean be concaved. La Hogue fired a salute of 21 guns. When the royal squadron bad mod to be in view, the vast multitudes began to retire to their respective homes, and until long after midnight the railway trains and the ears were busily occupied. The tilts by the latter varied from two to four shillings for a passenger, according to the exigency of the case and the anxiety of the party to reach town. This is the last " chronicling " for the present of the visit of our gracious Sovereign, and such an impulse hee been given to every commercial pursuit—such a feeling of almost chivalric devotion for the Queen has been manifested—that it is with an assured hope of the great and glorious results likely to flow from her royal presence in all its individnality that we speak the few fervent words of gating, "Nay God bless her! —Sasauters's News Letter.

" BELFAST, SATVILDAY. The enthusiasm of the people MCMII only to increase ss the royal object of so much loyal dorcticn pro gresses on her journey. Even the " canny " inha bitants of the blink north hare caught the frenzy, and are, and have been, all the week straining every nerve and exercising every ingenuity to give their royal mistress a suitable reception. • When I arrived here yesterday evenieg, I fourid the whole popunittni in the streets disrmising, with the greatest eagerness and interest, the probable incidents of the all-ins- portant morrow. In Belfast her Majesty cannot fail to be struck with the decidedly English appear- ance of the place, and the indications of wealth which the industry of the iuhabitacts and the presence of commerce and extensive textile manufactures have accumulated in rich profusion. The streets are as regular, the houses are as good, and the slips are as magnificent and prosperous (although perpetually making " enormous ascrifiers "), as in ei'her Man chester or Liverpool ; and even in the decoraions put on for the present joyous occasion there is • cer tain solid magnificence which betokens the great commercial city. The platform on wnich her Ma jesty is to land, at the bottom of High-street, is spa cious and elegant, and the triumphal arch with which it terminates, and from whence the royal procession will pass into the town, is quite up to its Dublin predecessors in architectural elegance. Many of the balconies are of scsriet cloth, ornamented with the royal arms and other oreameets, in bur nished gold, and have quite a magnificent appearance. The profusion of loyal bunting is worthy of the town that boasts 60,000 tons of its own shipping, and it flaunts and flutters in every possible corner and di rection. The bank, commercial buildings, and various other public edifices, are most tastefully draped with the flags of all rations, that one which has " braved the battle and the breeze " for such a very lengthened period having, of course, the place of honour. The influx of visitors is tremendous. The train by which I came down was tilled to overflowing, and at that portion where the line is interrupted,—and a portion must be got over by horse-power, we had a battle of the omnibuses quite worthy of an epic. The excellent forethought of the Belfast Junction Railway Com pany had provided these vehicles in the proportion of one to every one hundred aid fifty passengers, and the consequence was, such vigorous esc laths, such sum mary tumbles-dawn, such swearing, screaming, and contusion as it has seldom in all my travels been my lot to witness. The inns are doing a roaring trade. At the Donegal Arms, where the Marquis and Mar chioness of Londonderry, the Earl of Roden, Marquis of I)ownshirc, and other persons of distinction have ' put up, five guineas has been refused fur a be I, and even in my more humble hostelrie, the Plough, the minimum price is twea'y shillings. The landlady, heretofore a joyous and portly dame, is now the very impersonation of awful responsibility. The cry is "still they come," and it is only by the exercise of a woundrous ingenuity that she ooutinues to stow them away. Lsst night we retired to rest after the mar.r.cr of various nations. Those who came early got beds, Ind snored comfor•ably in the English fashion ; their successors had couches in the sitting-rooms, alter the manner of the ancients; and, later still, some tried • sitting posture on the stairs, an invention which may, I believe, be dated from the present exciting period. But every one must see the Queen, and neither inconvenience nor expense is thought of for a moment. There is but one drawbar k to all this joyoes preparation. The rain, for which Belfast is prover bial (the local proverb being, "that it rains fourteen months out of the twelve), defies even ter Majesty's chartered right to fine weather. It has poured down all night, and the streets, which have been crowded since four o'clock this morning, present to the eye only a vast surface of convex calico. The sun of Victoria may yet shine out with its wonted reful gence, but at present all is damp, doubt, and dirty weather. The programme, as regulated by the mayor, sets out that her Majesty, on lauding at the bottom of High-street, will be received by the mayor and corpo- ration, and, a procession having been formed as in Dublin, will proceed through the principal streets and squares, visiting the Town Hall, the Deaf and Dumb School, and as many other of the public institutions is time will permit. Then, the people having had fall opportunity of seeing their sovereign and bidding her welcome, her Majesty will return to the royal yacht, and proceed to Scotland. Two steamers have started at five this morning, fuller passengers, to meet the royal squadron in the loch, and accompany it up to town. HER MAJESTY'S ARRIVAL AND PROGRESS, BELFAST, SATURDAY ETINIXO. At about seven o'clock this morning the royal squadron rounded Gray Head, and shortly afterwards I cast anchor in Carrickfergus roads. Here the Queen and Prince were much cheered by the passengers on board the steamers which had come down the loch early in the morning. H.R.H. the Price° of \Vales attracted especial attention as he stood on deck in nautical costume, and took off his hat in acknowledge ment of the cheers of the people. The squadion made no further progress fix • considerable time, partly in consequence of the state of the tide, and partly because, as understood, her Majesty felt rather indisposed after her voyage. In the meantime, the streets of Belfast had been crowded since seven in the morning, and the people waited with the most exemplary patience until two o'clock, the period of her Majesty's landing. The ground wet; kept by the pensioners, constabulary, and 13th Foot, who lined the streets throughout the intended route of the royal party, while the 13th Light Dragoons were in atten dance in the cleared space between the plat form and the triumphal arch, to form a guard of honour for her Majesty. The weather, which was most unpropitious in the morning, cleared up later in the day, and proved that even in Belfast her Majesty's luck in having fine weather for her journey wan not to be interrupted. On the Fairy coming alongside the quay her Majesty received the various deputations and addressee, the principal being that c the corporation, which was as follows : TO THE QIIEEN'S HOST EXCELLENT MAJESIT. Mostoriciout;Soversign,—We, your Majesty's most duti ful and loyal subjects, the mayor, aldermen, and councillors of the borough of Belfast, beg leave to present to your Ma jesty oar heartfelt welcome to our shores, to return our hum ble thanks for the high honour of your royal visit, and to express the earnest hope that your loyal subjects may here after be gratified by many similar instances of your Ma jesty's ciondeseension. And we beg to suggest to your Majesty that our province mistake many places of deep historical interest, and our county an example of coast scenery not merely of load ode brity, bat famous throughout the world. Your Majesty's town of Belfast, nAwithstanding the ag ricultural and commeircial difileultiis of the times, will be found in • Mate of rapid improvement, and affording the most satisfactory evidence of the national advantages deriv able from the legislative union of the empire—advantages which are duly appreciated by a peaceful, industrious, enter prising, and loyal population. May we beg leave to add that the delight which, in com mon with our fellow townsmen, we derive from your Ma jesty's visit is much enhanced by seeing you accompanied, not only by hie Royal Highness, your illustrious consort, but ago by some of your royal children, for they bring to our minds the many blessings derived in pa' timea from the sc- Her Majesty, having thus disposed of the first part of the (*frau:tidal, stepped out upon the covered plat form, and, escorted by the mayor, Sir G. Grey, the Marquis of Londonderry, Marquis of Donegal, Earl Lortescue, &0., proceeded to the Marquis of Lon ilooderri's earriege, which was in attendance., drawn by four t; reys, with outriders, and the procession began to move. In the royal carriage were the Queen, Prince Albert, Lady Jocelyn, and Miss Dawson, the Marquis of Londonderry, in the full dress uniform of the 2nd Life Guards, occupying the dickey. It is almost needless repetition to say that, the moment her Majesty became visible to the people, the cheering was enthusiastic. Indeed so loud was it as greatly to disturb the equanimity or the hones, especially those in Sir George Grey's carriage. They reared and plunged so fere fully under the arch as to induce the right hon. gentleman to make • speedy exit, pref.rring the set wily of terra firma to the absurd notices of vehicular dignity. The crowd here was very great, but certainly not so great as those of Cork, and not at all to be compared to the dense masses that had packed the streets of Dublin. But the feeling was the same. The same anxiety to see the Queen, and to give M r the " Cead snide rants." By the way, I could not help noticing that the northern., who dieeaitned all Celtic sympathies when the rate in aid was under discussion, became quite M'lesian in the moment of enthusiasm and ',l aity. Their beautiful triumphal arch, at the bottom of High-street, bore the far-famed Celtic welcome. for its motto, and was surmounted with an Irish harp, or namented with undeniable shamrock'. It would appear that there are some affitiitiee of race after all; for if ever there was a moment when the national, unadulterated Irishman was brought out in full per fection, it is the present moment r f national jubilee. The procession went on, followed by the muss of the teople, through sped ms streets, adorned with hand some balconies, some of them decorated in the most costly manner, and all the windows filled with well dressed people, until it came to the Linen-hall, which had been must tastefully decorated in anticipation of her Majesty's visit. Th.y ate as fend of dahlias as the English, these people of the north, and twist them reactfuhy with every variety of ornament. At the Liven-hail her Majesty was re caved by the Marquis of Downshire, the Earl of Erne, Mr. J. T. Crawford, and the oilier members of the committee, and pro ceeded carefully to inspect the various stages of the flax manufactures, from the plant in its raw state until it was span to a fineness that made it wo:th thirty guineas a pound. Her Majesty expressed her self gratified, much gratified, with the exhibition, and gave some extensive orders for the fabrics she had Just been admiring. Trio next visit her Majesty paid was to the Queen's College, where the president, Dr. Henry, the vice-president, Mr. Andrews, ar.d several of the fellow ., _ were in waiting to conduct her I over the building . Her Majesty, as is her wont in all matters connected with the education of the people, evinced the most live ly interest and curiosity, as did also Prince Albert, in Vie affairs of the est.- ; bliehment. The illustrious couple asked minute and searching questions respecting the prospeets of the col ege, and, on hearing that it would r.ot open until October, did not appear to thick it wculd be a bit too soon. The lord president informed her Majesty that a sort of album was being prepared, to serve as a sort of chronicle of the history of the college, when Prince Albert promised that .f the book were sent to him, he would have inserted in it the Queen's signature, as also bid own. Iler Majesty then visited in surcession the Deaf and Dumb Institution and the Botanic Garden, being everywhere followed and cheered by her people, and attended by her loyal and zealous town council, of whom this may be as good a place as any to mention a rather amusing anecdote : When, is the first ex citement of the promised royal visit, they had valorously ordered new municipal robes, which the tailor, as much excited as themselves, made all of one size, the consequence was, that to-day! the shorter of the worthy burgesses were sadly embarrassed by the length of their robes, whilst one or two municipal Goliahs looked like boys who had outgrown their clothes. As usual, the mob, the natural enemies of civic dignitaries, only laughed at the mishap. Her Majesty, having completed her tour of inerct:on, commenced her return, and was, if possible, more rapturously greeted tha n in the morning. The people crowded to the very house-tops, and cheered most lustily; and the royal lady, "The cynosure of neigh bouring eyes," was unsparing of her gracious and condescending acknowledgments. As in Cork and Dublin, her Majesty became at once and universally the object of popular affection. Like Una, she had come to Make a sunshine in the shady place, _ . and the general hilarity of the Green Island proves how successful have been her beneficent endeavours. We parted company with her Majesty on the waters of the Loch, the royal squadron steaming gallantly down, amidst the cheering of thousands of the amphibious population, the thunders of artillery, and a prayer from every lip that her Majesty might soon arrive, well and in safety, among her faithful people of Scotland. A. in Dublin and Cork, I feel bound to acknow ledge the courtesy of all official people. To Mr. Bates, the town clerk, I am espscially indebted for the prompt and handsome manner in which he provided me with the tickets for everything necessary to be seen. Mr. M'Adam, secretary to the Flax Improve ment Society, was also most obliging. MURDER AND MUTILATION OF A CHILD.—An in quiry was gone into at Colchester, on Friday, before Mr. Churchill, the borough corner, en the mutilated remains of an infant, found the previous day in the water closet of the residence of Mr. Winter. To such an extent had the body been cut up, that it was almost impossible to tell its sex (a girl.) It appeared in evidence that Mr. Winter's cook, named Jane Simmonds, was suspected of being in the family way far some time, and on Wednesday last it was supposed, from her appearance, that she had given birth to a child. The surgeon who was examined could not swear whether the &lid was born alive, and an open verdict was, therefore, returned ; but the mother was handed over to the magis trates to take her trial for concealing the birth. INQUEST, SATURDAY.—DISTRESSING DEATH OF • CHlLD.—Before Mr. H. M. Wakley, at the Drapers' Arms Tavern, Upper Barnabury• street, Islington, on the body of Thomas William Messer, aged two years, who met with his death under the following circumstances: It ap peared from the evidence that the decoated was the son of a master bricklayer residing in Henry-st.ceet. At the rear of the house there was a fishpond, contain ing gold and silver fish. The deceased and the other childre.a were accustomed to play in the garden, and on Wednesday 'afternoon last the deceased was missing far some minute., wham, on instituting a search, the father found Lim lying at the bottom of the fish-pond, which contained about 18 inches of water, appa , rently lifeless. Mr. Scott, a surgeon, was calls d in imme diately, and he adopted the usual means to Ten witate the body, but without avail, as life was quite extinct. There is no doubt the poor little fellow fell in by accident, end the father stated that it was his intention to fill up the pond id to prevent a similar occurrence.—Verdict, Aocia,Ant death." Last night, shortly after eight o'clock, a fearful coefiegration, which ecntinued to rage throughout the whole of the night, occurred up n the estate a Sir Thomas Len- Lard, situate at Wennington, near Raynam, in Essex, about eighteen miles from London. The property in which the dis aster commenced was termed Scrips and Otters Farm, and was tenanted by Charles Richard Webb, Esq., of Belmont Castle, Grays. The flames when first discovered were raging In a wheat rick on the south. east corner of the stack-yard. An imme diate alarm was given, and en attempt was made to extin guish the flames ; but such a firm hold had they obtained , 1 th et they defied the utmost ex ratans of all present, and very speedily they extended to the barns, a long ra=ge of pre mises, 8:led with wheat, from whence the work of destructit n communicated to the bullock site ds and cow-home*. Mr. Parrett, the agent to Sir Thomas Leonard, with • great number of villagers, hastened to the Kens, and tried, by every p' vitals means, to get the fire under, but without t ffect, and in the course of a few minutes the fire had wiz d upon a number of ricks of wheat, hay, and straw, so that there was property covering upwards of half an acre in a general tdae. The flames at the same time mounted so high into the air, as not merely to light up the surrounding country, but they were distinctly visible from every part of the metropolis. Lieut. Sinclair and Mr. Greensill, with a strong body of the artillery and several engine, instantly stark d from Pur fl :et Barracks to the sc:ne, and were called into op ration, hut, notwithstanding the great body of water scattered over the flames, they continued to progress, and the bight being seen in London caused the engine of the brigade in Watling street, and also that of the West of Eogland Company, in the Waterloo-r. od, to s :en in search of the fire. For some con siderable time no direct informatiten ceuld be obtained as to where the tire was raging, and the firemen were guided to tut spot orly by the glare in the atmosphere. The London engines at length reached the spot, when a fearful scene presented itself, ft r the whole of the property except the dwelling house and the granary was enveloped in an immerse sheet of flame. The whole of the engines were kept at work duriig the night, but at nine o'clock this morning there still re mused a great body of fire, although all danger of its further extension was at as end. No doubt seems to be entertained that the fire wee the work of an incendiary. The present babe fourth fire that has been raised in the neighb iurbot.d during the week. Two attempte have been made on the premises of Mr. Vince, • farmer at Homelier* upon the Marquis of Salisbury's estate, about two miles from Rumford. The first of these was extinguished, when shortly afterwards the second was discovered, which burned down a great number of ricks, barns, sheds, cow-houses, dec. The authorities are determined to have • most searching investigation late the cause of these fires, and a hand-orne reward will be offered for the upprehension of the guilty pat ties. Fortunately Mr. Webb's property was partially insured. MARLBOROrJGH-STREET POLICE. THIS D.V. CHARGE OF BIGAMY AGAINST LOLA MONTES. This was the day apkointed for the re-examination of Mrs. Heald, better known as Lola Montes, or the Coun tess de Lansfeldt, whl was remanded on this day week, on a charge of bigamy, preferral by Mae Heald, the aunt of her present husband, but who has been allowed to remain at large on finding bail herself in 1,0001. and two sureties in 5001, each. Up to the blur of our going to press neither the fair defendant nor any of the counsel engaged in the cue made their appearance in court. Elsewhere is announced the ar rival of Mr. and Mrs. Heald in Paris, It is supposed she will allow her recognisance& to be for feited, to the carrying out of which process the future pro ceedings in the cue will probably be confined. GERMANY. AUSTRIA.—Vienna dates are Aug. 8. The mission of Prince Schwarzenburg to Warsaw occupies all political thinkers and talkers. It can be no trifle that turns a prime minister of an empire into an envoy ; it must, in fact, be a thing of the very weightiest importance. However clearly the secret may be kept, It is highly probable that Schwarzen burg's journey was the result of Klapka's victory, the ' result of which reached Vienna the day before he set out. This great success of the Hungarians mug have determined him to speak to the Czar face to face upon two points, which must have long occupied the attention of the Austrian minister, and now took complete possession of his mind: first, the want of concert between the two commanders-in-cl ief ; and, secondly, the possibility of coming to some arrange ment with the Hungarians in care of fresh disasters. It is clear that the Austrian minister would attribute, and perhaps justly, the defeat of their besieging army before Canons to the diversion of a large Russian corps from its destination, that of Grabbe, which was moving down the valley of the Gran to take up a position between that river and the Waag, and was on the 18th suddenlyealled off by Paskiewitch in pursuit of Gorier y towerds the Theiss. From this excursion General Gr.bbe had not yet returned, but was still operating with Sass and Osten-Sacken, in the neighbourhood of Tokay. Meanwhile the 10,000 Magyars of Klapka had been increased by 12,000 de • tached from the corps of Geirgey at Waitzan. During this time, Haynau, having received news of the Ban's minadventure of the 14tb, had removed his head-quar ters from the neighbourhood to Pesth, in the intention of marching with all pasible despatch to the relief of the south army. Before Comorn he lift only the weak corps of Gen. Czoricb, relying of course on Grabbe. It seems highly probable that Paskiewitch was not so attentive and regular in the CND murication of intelligence to General Ilaynau, as his position at the head of the allied army rendered incumbent on him; else it is hardly possible to con ceive how the Austrian commander-in-chief, with the fact before his eyes of Grabbe's change of destination, while the garrison of Comorn was more than doubled, could have persisted in his intention of leaving so small a force before that fortress, while he threw himself with nearly his whole army, deep into the interior. Next, as to the eventuality of peace, which the disastrous turn of the war would press on the attention of the Austrian minister. It is not to be forgotten that the English ambassador since his return to his post would suggest many substantial argu ments in favour of a petceful arrangement. 'foe character of the Emperor Nicholas is to well known to doubt that, on,te embarked in this war, he will play: out the gang) while he has a sit gle Cos sack left. Meanwhile, the more Coseackg he spends, PARIS. SUNDAY, 5 30 r x. With the excertion of the journey of the president, which offers lit.le interest, and the prorogation of he Chambers last tvening, after some unimporant last words, there is no news in the Paris journals. The Mmiteur contains a string of laws, just passed by the Assembiy, and also a statement to the effect that the president has, on the report of the minirrcr of the interior, granted to Mr. Jacob Brett, an Englishman, authorisa tion to make a Submarine ehctrio telegraph between Calais and DJver. The work must be CJII• eluded before September, 1850, sad is to be made entirely at Mr. Metes Expense. The Vantession is only to last ten years. The Constitutionnel publishes the exposé des motifs of the project of law on the income tax. In this do cument M. Prosy says that the land t-x cannot be further increased. The registration duty cannot be made higher. The indirect taxes, so notably re duced in one of its material articles, cannot yield any gnat increase. As for the customs, it is:impos sible at present to touch them. Lieutenant and Mrs. Mesh! Montts) have arrived in Paris. Thus the only remaining taxable materials were moveable reveuue and capital. It has been shown how imprudent a tax on the latter would be, and it is proved that it would yield little though raised at tho rate of three per cent. The money thus raised would cause a subversion, too, in other taxes, and a crr fusion would mire which is to be avoided. The report of M. gassy then gen on to show the advan tage of the income tax, undEr which all kinds of revenue is to be subjected. The net produca f the tax is valued at 60 millions. It seems that the couucil of state, to a hich was rc f,:rnd the matter of M. LessepF, has 1)66E01 a vote of blame against that functionary. ITALY. SARDINIA.—We have received letters from our correspondent at Turir, dated the Bth inst.

GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY.—OR Sa turday the flags of all the ships of the General Scam N►vi gation Company in the river were hoisted half-mast high, in token of respect to the memory of the highly-esteemed and deeply-lamented secretary of the company, the late John Wilson, Esq. TEE THUNDERSTORM, OR ThßTElfly, did great damage at Altrincham, Todmorden, and Holmfrrth. A storm of thunder and lightning, followed by heavy rain, raged around Portsmouth, betas( en the hours of nine and eleven on Saturday evening, and from the intense vividness of the electric fluid it is to be feared cona:darable damage must base taken place. The storm appeared to fall with great force over Itydc, in the island.

MONEY MARKET. SATURDAY EVENINO. Money continues very abundant on the Stock Ex change, but there are symptoms of rather more demand for it; the rates for short periods on govern ment securities are about two per cent. . . . This day terminates the protracted and injurious blockade of the German ports by the Danish ships, and will consequently set free a large amount of im peded commerce and enterprise which for months past has been waiting the long-looked-for release. In the speech of the King of Prussia at the opening of the Chambers at Berlin on Timidity last, the war between Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein is charac terised as one "which, apart from possible complica tions with otht r powers, laid upon the German, North, and .Baltic coast, the heaviest, and, in the long run, intolerable sacrifices." Most fully will these senti ments be echoed in this country ; and we trust that Z\'
