A SPECIAL EDITION of the " REPRESS," eontaising the remits of the day's Races, is pub lished every evening during the Sporting Season, at six o'clock. Tue King of NAPLES has proved himself • good friend to the DERBY Ministry. He has brought them out of the Cagliari affair with flying colours. It; not only Parliament, and the press, and the public that institute comparisons between the part which the present Government has played in that affair and the part played by their predecessors, every way favourable to the former. Even the Whig journals— the Times, the Observer, &c.—arc loud in their praise of Lord MALRESSURT. The FOREIGN SECRETARY has " won the wise who frowned before to smile "at last." In so far as Lord MALMESBCRY LS con cerned, we have no objection to this sadden conver sion of the PALMERSTON-CLARENDON organs. It does, indeed, suggest a suspicion that MAL SIESRURY may have given pledges of his inten tion to walk, in so far as Austria and Italy are concerned, in the footsteps of CLARENDON. We will not, however, prejudge him. We have from the beginning admitted that he and his colleagues have acted in the Cagliari affair with more tact and energy than the Ministers whom they have super seded. Bat while doing them this simple justice we must warn the public not to run away with the idea that the difficulties of the Italian question are at an end—that the policy of the English Govern ment as regards Italy is certain to be such in future as is consistent with the honour of England and the interests of Europe. It must not be forgotten that the Cagliari affair is a mere episode in our relations with Naples, and that our relations with Naples are merely a enbeedi nate part of our relations with Italy and the eon atitutimal party on the Continent. The English and French Ministers were withdrawn from Naples before the affair of the Cagliari occurred. A satis factory settlement of the questions arising out of the seizure of the Cagliari would not warrant a re sumption of the diplomatic intercourse between England and France on the one part and Naples, oa the other. And a resumption of diplomatic inter amine between the two Great Western Powers and Naples would not of itself be sufficient to plaoe the affairs*: Italy on a safe and sati-factory basis. The vital and perilous question raised by the Sardinian Note in the first Congress of Paris would still remain unsolved ; and so long as it re mains in this unsatisfactory position we have no guarantee for the pesos of Europe —not even a dim and equivocal prospect for the liberties of Italy. The representation made by the Sardinian Pleni potentiaries, in the first Congress of Paris, was nearly as follows :—That the misgovernment and oppression of all the other Sovereigns of Italy kept their subjects in • state of chronic sad justifiable conspiracy and insurrection ; that this condition of the rest of the Italian peninsula was incompatible with the tranquillity and security of constitutional Piedmont ; that it was equally incompatible with the permanent security and peace of Europe. The truth of these representations was admitted by the Plenipotentiaries for France and England, who, in the name of their respective Governments, promised to me their good offices with the various Italian Sovereigns, with a view to prevail upon them to adopt • mom wise and humane policy. The only step that has been takes in consequence of these promises is the withdrawal of the French and English Ministers from Naples. As might have been foreseen, this pro forme: inter ruption of diplomatic relations has been contemptu ously laughed at by the Neapolitan Government. The conduct of the King of Nartes and his Coun sellors has ever since been, if possible, more wan tonly and senselessly oppressive than before. Not even an attempt has been made by the two great Western Powers to promote that increase of the secular element in the government of the States of the Church which was declared to be indispensable to their better and more humane administration. As for Austria, the worst canker of all in the social and civil constitution of Italy, it is but fair to admit that no hopes were held out by the French and English Governments that they would m aster courage to preach reason and humanity to the Cabinet of Vienna. The result of this retrospect is that, since the close of the first Parisian Conferences, literally nothing has been done to better the condition of Italy. The gleam of hope which dawned upon the mo derate, rational, constitutional Italian patriots, has again faded away, and a darker midnight of despair his settled down upon them. With the exception of the Piedmont/se territories, the whole of Italy is filled with oppressors and conspirators. The free state of Piedmont—the only Goshen amid this worm than Egyptian darkness-6 bated sod threatened by the oppressors, as a mirror which shows the ugliness of their own features; and it is in danger of being again hated by the patriots of the rest of Italy with the hatred of envy. The actual state of Italy is bed ; but unless something be done to arrest the natural current of events this bad will only be the prelude to a worse. If things are left to go on as they have been, Sardinia must either break with the neighbouring tyrants, or succumb to them. Either event will render an explosion in Italy inevitable, which will shake all the rest of Europe. Nov, if Lord Dutar's Government We prepared to nuke the whole of their Italian policy contrast as favourably with that of their predecessors in office' s Lard MA LEIREDURY'N partially successful activity in the affair of the Cagliari contrasts with the unprincipled and apathetic inaction of Lord CLARENDON, woo will be more reedy to do them justice than we. But if their partial success in the affair of the Cagliari is merely to be turned to account for obtaining a party triumph, and the policy of Englind as regards Italy is to coutinue as discreditable u heretofore, they must take the consequences. We say their " partial' I success, for fall justice has not yet been obtained at the hand, of the King of NA PLLS. Compensation has been obtained for the English subjects who suffered from the lawless endemic.' proceedings of the Neapo litan Government iu the case of the Cagliari ; com- TEE EXPEEPS, MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 21, 1858. penaation is equally due to the innocent Sardinian subjects, who have suffered u mach or more than the English. The Sardinian Government seems disposed to put forward • clads for such compensa tion ; if it does, will the claim receive the sup port of Lord Drany's Ministry ? If Lord MALLES BURT hang back, in the event of such a claim being urged by Sardinia, he will lay himself open to • suspicion of having, by complicity with Austria, snatched an unimpurtant concession from Naples, simply to strengthen the position of his party in the English House of Commons. And even though he continue to act in an English spirit as regards the questions arising out of the seizure of the Cagliari, he and his colleagues cannot look for national sup port anima they are prepared to adopt a truly Eng lish policy in all questions bearing upon Italy. This warning is given not in the interest of any party, but simply from an anxious wish to see a foreign policy worthy of our country adopted in the Councils of the Nation. It sill be in vain for the Ministeria! orators in Parliament, or their organs in the press, to attempt to impute a fs.cri"tis motive to the warn ing. The PALMERSTON-CLARENDON clique alone can have any interest at present in shaking the stability of Ministers; and the language of the PALMIRMTON-CLARLNDON journals referred to above warrants something more than a suspicion that in their views regarding Foreign Policy Lords MALMES BURT and CLARENDON are one. It was the syste matic policy of Lord CLARENDON to fawn upon Austria, and to display a laquey-like supercilious ness towards Sardinia: is Lord MALMLIBURT going to follow suit ? LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE CAGLIARI. The steamer Lombardo, which arrived ►t Genoa on the 17th, brought the new, that the Cagliari had left Naples on Monday, and that the English consul wee to leave Salerno on the 18th, to take charge of the crew, and see it embarked on the Cagliari. The vessel was expected to make the port of Genoa on the 18th. Imperial Government, who say that from its origin and traditions it must necessarily be despotic. These " enemies" endeavour to placard the restored Empire with an unpopular ticket, viz., "despot ism," bat the country does not wept despotism, and the proof that it does not is, " that it becomes uneasy, almost alarmed, when it has ground for thinking that the government is entering upon a compressive course— when, far example, it sees the oword of a general upon the desk of the Minister of the Interior. The country becomes reassured, on the contrary, when it sees that moderation and legality are the acknow ledged rube of politics, and that one of the most eminent judges in France is called upon to direct the internal administration. Thus it is as a govern ment of order, legal authority, and regulated Liberty, that the Empire was proclaimed in the person of its glorious chief. It is as such that it has the con fidence and respect of France. When it is mis represented, and when it is attempted to make it appear as a military dictatorship, or a regime of depotism, it at once becomes weaker. This is a valuable lesson, and one which will not be lost. The Bourse has relapsed into a state of dulness. The Rente closed heavily, at 68.20 for cash, and 68.30 for account, with a fall of 30c. and 10c. Mo bilier fell 11.26.

The Constautionnel—speaking of the new Senatus Counthum, by virtue of which ministers, grand officers of the crown, knights grand crows of the legion of honour, French ambassadors, senators, and councillors of state are to enjoy the privilege of being tried for crimes and misdemeanours by a ape eial tribunal, called a High Court of Justice, instead of by jury—works itself up to each a pitch of official enthusiasm as to describe a measure which, so far as it excites any attention at all, is certainly not ap proved of in this country of " equality," as " one of the most important laws which we owe to the imperial initiative." How great (it exclaims) is the solicitude of the Senate for the public interests ! But yesterday it completed the rural code which will protect agriculture and real property ; " but now it has voted a Senatus Consultant which defends a property still more precious —the impartiality of justice, and the dignity of the nation in the person of its most illustrious children." Without con curring with the Censtittaiorenel as to the high impor tance of the work achieved, I sincerely think that the Senate is entitled to some credit for courage and self abnegation on account of this vote. Senators, although not altogether what the constitution assumes them to be, " la illustrations du pays," are not taken from a class of society addicted to mur der, burglary, highway robbery, and petty larceny, and the public does not look so far into the possible future as to concern itself about the unlikely cue of a senator, guilty of these mean offences, being let off more easily by his brothers in embroidered uni form than he would be by an ordinary court of justice. But if tronblous times should come, in which the executive power should desire to relieve itself from unpopularity, by throwing the responsi bility of odious acts upon high officials, if, for instance, it should be wished to send a batch of a couple of ministers, half a dozen councillors of state, and twenty senators to Cayenne, it is certain that the High Court of Justice would be found a more complaisant instrument than a Paris jury. The senators appear, after all, to have had some inkling of this contingency, for their reporter, M. Barthe, with all his courtly language, informs us, that by way of amendment to the project, as presented by government, the Senate had thought fit to stipu late that whenever the five judges composing the High Court sit without &jury of thirty-aix,they are to be aided by the four presidents of the Court of Caseation —judges who,holding their appointments for life,may possibly not be liable to the influences which might act upon the High Court judges for the time being. This amendment is made, it is stated, "without call ing in question the impartiality of the five High Court judges," because " it is equitable to fortify as as much as possible a court of the last resort, from whose sentences there is no appeal." Let us hope that the illustrious senators may never hare omission to test the value of their forethought in this regard. I have had an opportunity of seeing one of forty albums, which have been ordered by the Emperor as presents from him to forty generals who were with his Majesty at the Chilons Camp, last year. Each album contains fall length portraits of the forty generals, executed in the very beet style of M. Legray, the celebrated photographer, and also a a great many interesting camp scene. The pictures, which probably form the most perfect specimens of the photographic art ever published, are bound in a magnificent folio volume, green and gold. On the cover of each volume is inscribed the words "Souvenirs du Camp de Ch►ions," followed by the name of the general to whom that particular copy is given. The value of this very costly present is greatly enhanced by a portrait of the Emperor him self, taken by M. Legray in his Majesty's tent at Chilons. It is the most. faithful likeness of the Emperor that has ever been seen, and differs very mat, rally in the expression of the counten ance from the numberless portraits which are touched up for exhibition in the shops. The eyes and lower jaw in particular are represented with a fidelity of which only those who have had opportu nities of closely scrutinising the countenance of this remarkable man can form any idea. The public will not, far the present at least, be able to study this wonderful "sun picture," as the strictest orders have been given that no copy of it shall be m►de beyond the forty ordered for the generale. M. Emile Angier, the author of the Lionnet Pasieres, which was lately played before the Em peror and Empress at Fontainebleau, has been pro moted to the rank of an officer of the Legion of Honour. M.

I P. 6.—1 hear that the Emperor and Empress are expected at the Lyons Railway station at 6 this evening, and that preparations are made for their reception at St. Cloud to-night. PARIS, Sarum my Byname. The Union Brstonne, of Nantes, states that the captain of the Etbiop claims 20,000 fr. from the owner of the Regina Cali, ea damages for having taken the ship out of the possession or the negroes. M. Viot (the owner) has gone to Paris to investi gate the grounds of the claim. The Constitutionnet, alluding to Lord Idalmes bury's speech in relation to this affair, says, " En attendant a more ample rectification of this state aunt, which is to say the least of it incomplete, we declare that we cannot approve of the manner in which tho noble lord and some other speakers de scribe the conduct of the French government touching the importation of free labourers into our colonies. " The Peri* has an article congratulating the go vernment on M. Delangle's appointment, which in spite of rhetorical precautions, is a plain confession that the friends of the empire were very seriously uneasy at the line of policy which h as b een f ol l owe d since January 14. It begins by averring, what the Cbtutstutionnel and Pop have already said, that the nomination indicates the commence- meat of a " new era in politics." " In the eyes of Europe as well as those of Francs this substitution of a ma gistrate for a general has a very serious meaning . " It then proceeds to take credit to itself for never having flattered General Espinuse, but at the same time desires to express an opinion that France has been on the whole more I frightened than hurt by his administration. He never inflicted a warning upon any journal and was particularly tolerant of opposition to himself. The unusual freedom with which the Paris press has been allowed to discus, the circular relative to the charity lands is justly cited as an example showing the truth of this assertion. What then m the reason that the country hails with universal satisfaction the champ of ministry which has just taken place ? It is, according to the Patrie, that it sees in the new appointment a contradiction to the enemies of the THE UNITED STATES. ARRIVAL OF THE AFRICA. LIVERPOOL, BcritnAr. The royal mail steamship Africa, Captain Shan non, from New York on the 9th instant, arrived at the bar at 11.30 last night, but was detained for want of water, and came up this morning. She brings 168 passengers and 12,000 dollars in specie. The Africa spoke the following steamers:—June 9, the Asia, for New York; 18th, Persia, for New York ; 18th, one of the Canadian mail steamers, for Quebec; and on the 19th, the Arabia, for Halifax and Boston. The alleged " outrages " by British cruisers con tinned to be commented upon both in and out of Con greas. On the 7th inst., in the United States Senate, the Naval Appropriation Bill being up, the New York Hued says :—" Mr. Mallory moved an amendment providing for the construction of ten steam sloops of war. Mr. Hale proposed to reduce the number to six.' Lost-31 to 22. The original motion was also lost by a vote of 24 to 20. At a later period an amend ment, authorising the construction of five propellers and one side-wheel steamer for the China Seas, was adopted by 18 to 17. An amendment, giving the President power to issue letters of marque in certain cues, was rejected by a vote of 90 to 8. The various propositions offered led to a renewal of the discus sion of the recent British outrages in the Gulf. From the tone of the debate it is evident that, with one or two exceptions, the members of the Senate are disinclined to adopt any measure that will precipi tate an isms with great Britain on the question. A bill making appropriations for the Transatlantic mail service had been reported, but not acted upon. The Senate had finally pseud the Army Appro priation Bill, involving an expenditure of 17,000,000 dollars. The papers enumerate some additional "outrages," swelling the total number reported up to 41.

A deepatch from St. Louis states that a messenger had reached Leavenworth from Fort Laramie with news that Captain Marcy's party, which was on the way from New Mexico to Camp Scott with animals and supplies for the army, had been " cut off" by the Mormons. It i• now ascertained that the report of Governor Cumming's expulsion from Salt Lake City wu a fabrication, and there was no doubt the state ment regarding Captain Marcy would prove to be equally groundless. The Independence correspondent of the St. Louis Republican, writing on the 4th instant, says the Salt Lake mail of April 18 had arrived there, bringing news that an express had reached Camp Scott from Governor Cumming, stating that he had been well received at Salt Lake City, that Brigham Young was willing to transfer all authority, and had en joined his followers to recognise Cumming as their fu ture Governor and aid him in the discharge of his duties. This intelligence is corroborated by a letter from Salt Lake, received bye Mormon residing near Leavenworth, which represents everything quiet in the valley. Governor Cumming was in the city, and the people had abandoned all idea of fighting and gone to work on their farms. A proclamation, by President Buchanan, had been published indicating the policy that is to guide the' peace commissioners—Mean. Powell and *Culla& —in their negotiations with the Mormons. The President warns the saints to beware of the punish ment which they will receive by persisting in their treasonable course, but offers a full and free pardon to all who will submit themselves to the authority of the Federal Government. The army at Camp Scott was suffering greatly. The United States sloop-of-war Constellation had arrived at New York from Genoa. A serious difficulty had occurred between the New York Central and the Erie Railroad Companies.

The excitement in New Orleans, arising out of the appointment of a Vigilance Committee, had con tinued very high until alter the election, which took place on the 7th inst. Such was the condition of affairs, that it was thought no election would take place. The voting, however, passed off peaceably, and the contest resulted in favour of the " Know- Nothing" or American party. After the election the Vigilance Committee disbanded. They had not disorganised, however, but announoed that they were ready to carry out their principles at any moment. The authorities arrested, but subsequently dis charged a number of the Vigilante. By way of New Orleans we have news of the capture of Tabasco, Mexico, by the government knees. The bombardment of the city commenced on the 9th, and continued till the 19th of April. The houses in the city suffered considerable damage, especially that of the American consul, which was situated in the line of the fire of the besiegers.

An effort is being made to establish a new line of steam communication between Galway and America. Mr. J. 0. Lever, corn-merchant, of Mancheater (who is the owner of a line of steamers plying on the west oast of Ireland, between Galway, Westport, and Liverpool), was to start the pioneer ship at the end of last week, from Galway. She is a paddle-wheel steamer of 6,000 tons burden, named the Indian Empire. Full of hope in the future, her owner accompanied her from Portsmouth to Galway, whence she was to start on Friday. In entering the Channel, the Indian Empire, while still in charge of the pilots, struck the San Marguerite Rock, where she remained until floated ' off with the tide. She then proceeded to Galway, where the pilots (Burbage and Wallace) were plead in custody, =1 with having intentionally and wilfully run the the rock. The , y were taken before a full bench of larrlon Thursday, when Coll Rochfort, on the part of the harbour commis sioners, stated the care for the prosecution spinet the men, who, be mid, through providence, had been debated in their abominable attempt to ruin • great national project, and destroy, wilfully and ma:iciously a noble and valuable ship, and in doing so had endangered the lives of many persona on board. The two prisoners were taken on board the Indian Empire off Arran, at 10.66 on Tuesday night. The eeptain communicated to them that she wee going at high speed, but they did not stets that there was any necessity to slacken, and had their wishes been fol lowed in this respect the ship would now be a total wreck. The rock upon which they ran the vessel wee well known to every man In Galway—it was marked plainly and distinctly on every chart of the port. The water was inn- Itt j azd the night clear. They were also within • short of the lighthouse. The prisons' knew well the coarse of the ship when they got on board, and yet the direction they gen with respect to the buoy was to look for it on the starboard, the fact being that it was es the port side. What could any man conclude from these bete but that the men who acted in this manner wanted to destroy the ship ? In doing so they involved the risk of destruction of a peat number of persons ; of this they were accused, and he called on the bench to s•ounit them for trial on the fol lowing charge :—" That the defendants, being licensed pilots in Galway Bay, did wilfully and maliciously, and wilful neglect and breach of duty, cause the Arm: Indian Empire to strike upon Santa Marganita Rock in Galway Bay on the morning of the 16th of June, 11168 thereby tending to the destruction and serious dump of thi said ship, and to endanger the lives of these on board." Numerous witness were examined, and The Bench decided to send the case for trial. Mr. Regan applied to have the prisoners admitted to bail. Mr. O'Flaberty. having consulted with his brother magis trates, said they all regarded the case as cos of great import ance, and were unanimously of opinion that, in order, with out meaning to prejudge, to mark their sense of the very powerful evidence laid before them, they should refuse bail . They were fortified in this determination by the knowledge of the fact that, if the prisoners felt they were aggrieved, they could apply to the Court of Queen's Bench to admit Asa to bill. The prieaewa were sent for trial at the seat amino. The Indian Empire was to have sailed on Friday morning, but it being deemed desirabl e th a t h er b o tt om s h ou ld be ex amined, and her machinery inspected, she wee detained. The mails arrived from Lond on on Friday morning, and were put on board, and in the afternoon a diver examined the keel and bottom of the vessel. The report of the diver being estidectory, and the repairs in the machinery baying been oompleted, the Indian Empire sailed from Qeiwey for New York, &c., on Saturday night. SHOCKING HURDBR. An inquiry of a very painful and distressing cha racter took place before Mr. T. Sworder ' the coroner for Hertfordshire, at Choehunt, on Friday, into the circum stances under which a highly respectable young lady, twenty-five years of age, named Sarah Jane Butler, met her death. The jury having performed the painful duty of viewing the body which presented a dreadful ap pe a rance, the heed being frightfully contused, end the skull fractured in several places, a number of witnesses were examined, and the following facts were disclosed. It appeared that the demean' young lady had gone to visit a married eider, Mrs. Brays, the wife of a chemist at Cher hunt, end that on Tuesday afternoon the two ladies went out for • walk, and paid a Wait to a friend named Prior, who lives near the Brosbourne railway station. They set eat on their return home about half-pest sight o'clock in the evening, and had gone about a mile when the tragical occurrence took place. On their way from Brox bunts to Cheating the Wise had to go for some distance by the side of the river and they then pared several cottages, and a short distance' from this spot there is the high read. When they had passed • few yards from the last of these cottages, which is occupied by a person named , Carter, the ladies saw a man approaching, and it would seem that his appearance excited some alarm, for Mrs. Brays proposed to her sister to turn beck, but the young ladyrep iled that it was daylight and there was no neemdty for being alarmed, and they proceeded on their way. The moment they aims close to the man, it appeared that without saying a word he attacked Miss Butler with • bludgeon, struck her first a tremendous blow on the site of the face, and then beat her upon the head until she fell senseless, and he then walked away. It appeared that the man did not attempt to offer any violence to Km Brays, and that lady was at drat so dreadfully terrified that she was unable to Ml= or to give any alarm. Carter, the occupier of the cottage, how ever, happened to come out the moment the arm* was being committed, and be procured the assistance of • police constable, and went in pursuit of the man, end they cams up with him as he wan walking on the high road, and be was moored, without cawing any resistance. The poer young lad y was taken up in an insensible date, and covered .with bleed, and as soon as • carriage could be procured she was conveyed to bee adder's reeldenoe, and Mr. Dixon, a surgeon, tartan at Clushuat, and some other professional gentlemen, promptly attended upon her, but it was evident, from the fearful character d the injuries she had received, that the ease was hopeless, and she remained in a state of Insensibility until about eleven o'clock at night, when she =peed. The man who had committed the outrage was taken to the police station at Hoddeden, and he appeared to be quite calm and col lected. He was asked if he knew what he had ban doing, and he replied, "Yes, I have been hitting • woman on the head, but I hope I have sot hurt her." He was after wards asked how he would like to be served in the same manner, end be laughed end said, "Not at all." He was Aired& told that the young lady he had struck was dead, and he made no reply. On the following day one of the attendants beiceiglag to the Hoxton Lunatic Asylum arrived at Hoddesdes, s A = that be was In mush of • patient, named Henry who bad made his elope from that establishment a taw days hi" and epos Ms going to the lock-up he at MOM tem tad the man who bad committed the mime as that per. sure.

The jury accordingly returned • verdict to that effect, and the comer at once Wined his warrant for the committal of the primmer, Henry Arnold, to take his trial at the cumin imam robes for the county of Herts. It Is almost needbiee to add that the melancholy occurnece has created the greatest pomible alarm and excitement througlwat the whet. neighbastrhood.

A serious accident has occurred this evening at the Biehopetoke station of the South-Western Railway, by whieleone man has been killed and several others severely wonnied. It appear. that the excursion train left Portsmouth for London at 7 o'clock, and consisted of about sixteen carriages, with between 600 and 700 persons. On arriving at Bishop- Wks, the three last carriages, consisting of one tint-clam, one third-clam, and the gtuird's van, ran off the line, and the coupling sin breaking, they became disconnected from the other part of the train. The third class carriage fell over on iu side, the two others remained etationary, and were uninjured. It is impoexible to describe the scene that ensued. On examining the nature of the accident, ft was discovered that one mat was killed, end four seriously injured; one man had his arm broken, a child 12 years of age is not expected to survive, and others are more or less injured. Two medical men who were in the train rendered every assistance to the sufferers, and other medical assistance was immediately telegraphed for from Southampton and other plebes; the wounded were conveyed to Winchester as soon as they could be removed. Ths catastrophe caused so much excitement that it was with difficulty the excursionists could be prevailed upon to continue their progress to London. Dr. Hearne and another medical man left Southampton for the scene of the disaster, accompanied by Mr. Beach, ths deputy superintendent. OBEAT FMB .AT FRESH WEAR?, LONDON BRIDOR.-/THIS DAY,J . This (Monday) morning a tire, involving the des truction of property even to a greater amount than the one that took gloom on Saturday night at Limehouse, broke out on Fresh-wharf, Lower Thames-street, adjoining London bridge. The premises are wall known to most steamboat passengers passing along the river, as covering as immense space of ground, on which stood • great • number of lofty warehouses, containing in the whole veined at more than • million sterling. That part of in which the misfortune commenced was on the north side, merest Them/g -amut, and formed a block of three warehouses about 180 feet in wldth,and nearly 80 feet high, each having six stories. The fire commenced from some unexplained cams in the middle door of the centre warehouse. This building wasdivided into sundry stores • the first door for depositing dry fruits, ss they arrived from a broad • the second floor wen used as the receiv ing depot; the third door wee appropriated to the stowage of silks and satins; another was the customs examining rooms. The o th er doors were used for the the stowage ci missenensons goods. . . . Prom ell that can at present be seoertained, It • th at about a dozen men employed on the wharf ha t their attention direetad to h bodies of smoke me black as soot benie g from the and windows of the silk floor. Nang ✓aided that a firs had occurred, they at once gave infonna. tie, to Mr. Charles Clark. the inspector of tie wharf, who SIM for Mr. Inspector Kilbey, at t3mithing.lane. He at once Ned down a strong body of police, who lined the sp. premelne to the wharf and kept the populsos out. Mr. Inspector Mitchell next arrived with body of polim, followed by numerous engines of the London Brigs and that et the West of England Company, bringing with them Mr. Superintendent Brsidwood , Acting-foreman Bridge., and several other officers. A good supply of water was *Wind from the land aide of the premises, on which the 1111/61ell were made to ply ; but the fire continuing to ralthe two steam Boating engines were sent for, an d e stationed at Rotherhithe, and that from Southwark bridge arrived In little more than a quarter of an hour. The whole of this force was called into full operation, but the flames continued their ravages until they reached the upper Boor , sad although the water from the floats kept tilling In torrents, the firemen cold not prevent the roof being destroyed. It, however, quickly fell In, end m elded the firemen to throw about 2,800 gallons of water per minute from each of the floating engines, the water ran down through the different floors, and completely maturated them. By 12 at noon, just four hours and a quarter after the com menoesient of the misfortune, the themes began to sea that their labows were successful, and that no apprehensions need be feared of any further extension of the mischief, but so great was the body of fire which even then remained in the three tipper floors, onto preclude the possibility of the fire bang entirely extinguished until late in the evening. property known to be destroyed must be enormous. It was that one house stone bad 25,000!. worth of silk in the building, but although the information mass obtained from en official of the wharf it is to be hoped that be hie made • mistake in the amount. The lessee of the premises, it is underetood, was Mr. Kull* in. wharfinger. DASTEUCIIIri Plll AT LIMEROUSE.

The tower of Limshonae Church formed the bark mend, and altogether the sous was one of terrific graedeur. It le needless to say that from the outbreak the trains on the railway were stopped.
