At 3 o'clock yesterday after- noon Martha Tiwmpson, a girl live years of age, died in the Royal Free Hospital, Grays-inn-road From the first the poor child's case was regarded as hopeless, the injuries which ultimately proved fatal being integuments torn off the face and scalp, which were fearfully burnt and blackened with dirt, glass. and gunpowder. In the same hospital her elder sister lies with serious lacerated wounds of neck and scalp. An old man named Humphrey Evans, aged 4;6, who has received, like so many more of the injured, a severe shock to the system, is in a highly perilous position, and not much hope is entertained of his recovery. The other three at this hospital are going on pretty well, and 17 during Friday night and Saturday morning were able to leave the institution. the gunpowder was procured. It is said the police, amongst other precautionary measures, have in formed all oilmen, gunmakers, and dealers in ex plosive materials to pay particular attention to per sona who may apply for gunpowder, gun cotton, or anything of an explosive character. Drysalters and turpentine distillers, dealers in petrolstura, naphtha, and other volatile oils, have also been re quested to ascertain, if possible, the name and ad dresses of all such persons who may purchase any of those combustible articles. It is stated that the informer Devanney has identified Desmond and Allen as Fenians. Exchange on London, 20i. Sugar, whites, 3.250 rs. to 3.500 rs. ; browns, 2.900 re. ; cotton, 8.500 to 10.000 rs.

The France of this evening says :—" We consider ' 1 the report doubtful that a rupture between the relations of Prussia and Denmark is imminent. We must admit, however, that the character of the pending negotiations is of a most delicate nature, and may create disagreement between the Prussian ministry and Herr von Quaade, and perhaps sub sequently lead to the latter's being replaced in his post as Danish plenipotentiary. The same journal is of the opinion that at St. Petersburg it is seriously spoken of that General Ignatietf will be called to office in the stead of Prince Gortscbakoff. ITALY. FLORENCE, DEC. 15, EVENING. In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies to-day, Signor Fambre censured the late administration on account of the small number of Italian troops stationed on the frontier, and of the unprepared condition of the army to meet the eventualities of war. General de Revel, the ex-Minister of War, refuted the accusation of disorganization and want of discipline brought against the army. The army had been greatly reduced by the Ricaaoli administra tion, nor had the Rattazzi Cabinet even contem plated the possibility of a war. The army had re ceived positive and precise instructions to I prevent the passage of the volunteers. They did their utmost, and deserved all praise for discipline and self-denial under the trying circumstances of a national movement towards Rome, a ministerial crisis, and French intervention. General Menabrea explained, speak ing of the condition of the army as it stood when he assumed office, that he did not intend to convey the accusations assumed by General de Revel. Signor Berthole Viale, Minister of War, stated that the army on the frontier numbered 11,500 men. The troops that crossed numbered 8,000. At the accession of the Cabinet the army was not in a condition to be mobilised. The total avail able effective force consisted of 148,000 men, scattered over the kingdom. The present Govern ment had taken the necessary measures to restore the normal effective strength as a precautionary measure. He gave an indignant denial to the in sinuation that the army had been humiliated by recent events. Signor Crispi maintained the ille gality of Garibahli's arrest, and the inefficacy of the arguments advanced for its justification. There was no analogy between his arrest at Sinalunga and his arrest at Foglino. The house adjourned till to-morrow at noon. ROME. ROME, DEc. 15. Cardinal Andrea has returned to Rowe. AUSTRIA.

It is stated that the election of dele gates of the Austrian and Hungarian Diets will take place at the end of next week, when the Reichsrath will be adjourned. The Reichsrath will reassemble during the first fortnight in January to settle the budget for 1868. Previous to the ad journment the President of the Reichsrath will be elected on the basis of the new constitution. It is expected that the present President will be re elected. The formation of a constitutional ministry has been decided in principle, and it is expected that immediately after the publication of the con stitution the Emperor will by an autograph letter entrust the present President of the Upper House with the task of forming the cabinet. It is not yet decided who will be the members of the new Cabinet. The Debatte of to-day says that the adjournment of the Reichsrath is fixed for the 21st inst. PORTUGAL. LISBON, DEC. 14, EWECING.

THE PROPOSED FENIAN DEMONSTRA TIONS. DUBLIN, SUNDAY NIGHT. No processions took place to-day in Killarney. A placard signed by the O'Donognue and others was circulated protesting against the interference of the government, and declaring that while yield ing to armed force, no power on earth can eradicate from their hearts love of Ireland, and of those who served her faithfully. In Killarney a considerable number of young men and women wore green rib bon and crape. LEEDS, SCITAT. No attempt was made by the Fenians to hold the procession that was announced. The magistrates made the most effective arrangements to stop any demonstration that might have been tried. The police took possession of Vicarecroft, where the procession was to assemble, and did not allow any person to enter it after one o'clock. Special con stables had been sworn in, and were told off for duty ; and the military, consisting of the Royal Artillery and the 70th Regiment, were in readiness to act if necessary. Great crowds collected in the streets, but all passed off quietly. The weather was very disagreeable all day. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY Arrita.nootr. The proposed procession of Fenian and Irish sympa thisers with the three murdered patriots recently hung at Manchester, which has kept the town in a state of ferment the whole of the week, and which was pompously an nounced last Sunday to take place to-day, has not been carried out--at any rate no procession was visible at the time of this writing, which is long after the hour appointed for it to muster. This, so far, is a cause of rejoicing, for had it taken place scenes of bloodshed and rioting would most assuredly have mimed, for the mere announcement of it roused all the old sectarian hatreds once so disastrously rampant here. Various causes may account for this unwonted display of common sense on the part of the resident Irish, the chief being the notorious fact that the preparations for putting down all attemrs to defy the law were on the most extensive scale—military, police, and special constables being ready to act with vigour and prowpitude on the slightest sign of disturb ance. The failure of the attempt to rescue Burke and Casey in London, and the universal indignation that cruel and bloodthirsty outrage has povoked here, has doubtless had a strong influence in ford i ng the local Fenians and their sympathising and misguided countrymen to keep the peace, and the appeals of the Roman catholic bishop and clergy have also doubtless had great weight with their ex cital.le flocks. Chief, however, amongst the causes of peace here to-day wu the weather, which was most un pleasant. The arrangements of the authorities to suppress any rioting were on the most extensive scale. About 800 police were within ease distance of Shiel-road, the majority under oover and out of sight of the crowd. The county police, about 300 in number, from Manchester, Wigan, South port, and other districts, were under the command of Cap tain Elgee, chief constable, and Captain Palms, and they were stationed near the new judges' lodgings in Newshaui park, at the West Derby end of the Soiel-road. In the stable-yard of the " lodgings " were sta tioned 200 of the local pensioners, under the command of Major Faulkner and Captain Birch. Some of these men, with bayonets fixed, guarded the approaches to the " lodgings," which were for the day the head-quar ters of the county magistrates, several of whom, Mr. R. Neilson, Mr. R. A. Mould, Mr. J. H. Macrae, Mr. T. D. Anderson, and others, were on the spot the whole of the afternoon. At the other end of Shiel-road the borough police had their head-quarters at a large cab-stand, sod here Major Greig, Superintendent Brennan, and a posse of men were stationed. Close to, in a large rewery, about 500 of the local police, armed with cutlasses, were stationed. These men had with them a large fire engine, ready for immediate use, either to act against a fire or a mob ; and a prismn vau was also in their charge, to be used, if necessary, as a " lock-up." Between 1,000 and 2,000 special constables, mostly volunteers, were rationed within easy distance of Shiel.road, and Major Bousfield, Captain Robertson, and other well-known volunteer officers were on duty at Major Greig's bead-quarters, the cab-stand above-mentioned. ------- Al the Fermata have threatened to burn the shipping and dock warehouses, special arrangements were made to prevent such catastrophes. All the fire-engines were pre pared for immediate service; constables—many in private clothes—kept constantly going round the dock quays, and marine, from her Majesty's ship Donegal were sent on board the gunboat Viper, which is moored off the landing stage, so that they could be landed in the town in a few minutes. In fact, no arrangements for preserving thu peace could have been more perfect, and up to this time they have been perfectly successful. In fact,. quieter Sun day has rarely been known in the town. At nearly all the Roman catholic chapels yesterday black-bordered memorial cards were freely distribute d. The cards bore the following inscription "Of your mercy pray for the souls of the martyred patriots, Allen, Gould, and Larkin, who for the love of Ireland were executed at Manchester, Nov. 73,1867." Daylight on Saturday showed that the terrible effects of the outrage at the Clerkenwell House of Detention were not exaggerated in the reports pub lished in the morning papers, rithough in the con fusion and darkness of the previous night several features of the occurrence passed without notice. Through the whole of Friday night crowds lin gered about, wherever they were permitted to con gregate, feeding upon the plenteous rumours that were abroad as to coining catastrophes, and on Satur day morning the confident prediction vnuiconveyed from mouth to mouth that Nawgate was to be attacked, and all the prisoners set free. Panic at the first was natural, but the panic on Saturday, and even yesterday, was much greater amongst the crowds in the locality than on the night of the occurrence. While the poor wretches, moaning, and bleeding, and torn, were being hurried away upon friendly shoulders, the bystanders appeared to be too amazed to speak much ; but on Saturday and yesterday such a specimen of an indignant British crowd might have been seen as it is not good frequently to witness. As the visitors of all classes have moved away to give place to others, it has been easy to gather that the predominant ideas which have taken possession of their minds are, first, the utter insanity of the attempt, as well as the inexcusable nature of the deed ; and, secondly, wonder that the cause should have produced an effect so deadly. One of the House of Detention officials stated that had not the time at which the ordinary criminals are exercised /XVI ohik.ngea trom afternoon to InOrning, prisoners and warden to the number of at least 50 must have been exposed to the full force of the enormous mass of brickwork which was showered in fragments over the yard. If the ob ject of the crime was the rescue of Burke and Casey, as the popular verdict without dissent de clares it to be, the rescue would have been of a kind which those notorious individuals could not have desired, and the only explanation would appear to be the ignorance of the men as to the power they were letting loose. In the interests of common humanity one would be glad to know that nothing more was dreamt of than the creation of a slight breach in the wall, but there is little ground for so lame • palliation as that. No official confirmation has been given as to the supposed Fenian origin of the affair, and the universally received belief seems to require none. Many of the military and scientific men who visited the ruins on Saturday morning discussed the probabilities of nitro-glycerine or gun cotton having been used instead of gunpowder ; but the balance of opinion (which a little observation of the slight structureof the houses opposite, thenarrowroadway in Corporation-lane, and the immense height of the wall, only two bricks thick, supports) does not warrant the supposition that anything but gunpowder was employed. Indeed, some of the medical reports say distinctly that the faces of a few patients, whose names are given, were black ened from the explosion of gunpowder. An officer from Chatham, who was present, stated that 100 lb. of gunpowder—which is but a small part of what it is supposed was used—would have wrought all the mischief that has been done in Corporation lane and the adjoining thoroughfares. During Saturday morning fragments of wood and 'brick were picked up in various out-of-the-way places within a 200 yards' radius, and amongst them was a portion of the infernal machine it self, found on the top of a house in Rosoman ateest. It was part of an oaken cask, three-quarters of an inch thick. As stated before, showers of bricks were hurled against the House of Detention, where many windows were broken, but, as we are informed by a statement placed outside of the prison entrance on Saturday, none of the prisoners were injured. This unusual announcement was explained by the next sentence—" No visitors to prisoners this day." The streams of visitors, in spite of mud, and rain, and barriers, and walls of impassable police, hose continued unabated from Saturday morning till last night. Corporation-lane was closed to all but a privileged few, although last night announce ments were posted outside the end houses that the public would be admitted to them to view the ruins for sums varying from sixpence to a penny. The fact that the houses themselves ter minated the row so nearly demolished by the explosion did not deter many from paying their money and gratifying their curiosity. If the thousands upon thousands who have been to Clerkenwell since Friday evening could have seen the sight unobstructed, they would have never forgotten the spectacle. On the one side was the ghastly breach in the wall, with heaps of powdered bricks and mortar covering the open space, and with a deep cavity far below the foundation level. On the other side of the lane there were scanty remains of a house immediately opposite the spot where the barrel was placed, while the houses on either side, as detailed in Saturday's paper, were sufficiently destroyed to be uninhabitable, but not enough to remove recent traces of the occupants who, in the midst of their daily toil, were, for no fault of theirs, maimed, killed, and despoiled, to satisfy the diabolical designs of men whom they had never injured. Furniture remained as it was before thee x plosion , save that it was covered with white duet, or surrounded by little articles of humble house hold use rudely shaken from the nails that held them ; walls were to be seen rent in twain, but still decorated with simple ornaments placed there by hands that would perhaps touch them no more ; and articles of clothing in one house at least dangled out of the aperture where the window once stood. It was said by one of the cheery fire men who worked hard the night through to save anything that safety could reach, that for an hour after the explosion a kettle could be seen in an upper room whose wall was stripped off, completing the homely singing and boiling, which a poor creature who was killed on the spot had no doubt waited to welcome. The paramount thought with which one leaves the wreck is one of surprise that it involved no greater loss of life. The explosion was heard as far as the Crystal Palace. The government have sent 5001. to meet the immediate distress that is occasioned, and words of praise for so spontaneous an act would be hack neyed. On Saturday morning Mr. Disraeli's pri vate secretary, and a gentleman direct from the Poor-law Board, came, not so much to see what was needed as to do what generally is not done without a good deal of routine reporting—namely, to dispense funds to the needy. The Home Secretary, too, and Mr. Liddell, the new under-secretary, were there, and a lady sent by the Princess 'Christian came to inquire how far the terrible accounts published were true. An officer from the Queen's household came also on a similar errand, her Majesty having previously sent a telegram to the Royal Free Hos pital to know how the sufferers were progressing, and to express her sympathy with them. To-night there is a public meeting called by the church wardens for the purpose of taking whatever steps may be deemed best for raising funds. The distri bution of the money sent by the government is, we believe, in a measure to be laied by the police. Yesterday, amongst r :tter prompt actions of the same kind, they gave se veral pounds to a poor woman who was prematurely confined in consequence of the explosion. We have been unable to discover how many are rendered homeless, but the majority of the eleven houses were very thickly tenanted, and many of them by poor people who could ill afford to lose a stick of their furniture. Amongst other subscriptions was one handed to the sitting magistrate at Bow street on Saturday, with the following letter :—" I A large number of persons, relatives and friends of the inmates, presented themselves at St. Bar tholomew's Hospital yesterday afternoon, but it was deemed unadvisable to admit them in the pre sent stateof the patients. Mr. M'Cullagh Toner, M.P. for Finsbury, who has spent the last two days in promoting arrangements for the welfare of the injured persona, having consulted with the surgeons of the hospital, and been supplied with the necessary information, addressed some tran quilliamgremarluitothecrowd,whichthenwithdrew. The police late last night had no new arrests to report. A man was taken in Clerkenwell in the marina. but L n ;pa not detained in custody long. I The maCreant who lighted :!uiCso i! known; and can be identified by several personi. For the pre sent, however, he has baffled the keen search 1.. 4 is being made for him. On Saturday evening at dusk the three persons in custody were brought before Sir Thomas Henry at the Bow-street police-court. Had the case been an ordinary one, it would have been heard before the Clerkenwell magistrate, but the peculiar cir cumstances under which the crime was committed led to a departure from the usual custom. A crowd assembled at an early hour in King's-cross-road, expecting to see the prisoners, while crowds as sembled in Bow-street to see Burke and Casey, who were under examination during the morning. The police kept their secret well, but during the afternoon it oozed out that the Clerkenwell pri soners were coming to Bow-street. When the van came up about four o'clock, strongly guarded by mounted police, armed with swords and pistols, there was a slight hooting at the prisoners, but the demonstration was not general. The van had scarcely stopped and the mounted police stationed themselves around it before the street received such reinforcements of spectators from some hidden shelter they had sought from the rain that traffic for the moment was suspended. The pri soners were however speedily placed in the dock, and presented the appearance of ordinary working people, with no special characteristic of either face or manner. They gave the names of Timothy Desmond, Jeremiah Allen, and Ann Justice, and the charge preferred against them was "with being concerned with others not in custody, with the wilful murder of Sarah Hodgkinson, aged 35 ; Willian Clutton, 55 ; and a girl named Minnie Abbott, aged 8 years, by wilfully and maliciously firing an explo sive substance, supposed to be gunpowder, at Cor poration-lane, Clerkenwell." To this sad specifi cation the name of the poor child who died yesterday afternoon will have to be added. The prisoners looked round the court once or twice searchingly, but not nervously or anxiously. Superintendent Germon undertook the formal duty of bringing forward the charge, it being intended to offer only sufficient evidence to justifya remand. The evidence, so far as it has gone, is conclusive. The first witness, who was Mr. Moore, chief warder of the House of Detention, narrated that between two and three on Friday afternoon a policeman told him a man was loitering about out side and refused to go away, and he saw the woman Justice, whom he had known as a visitor to Casey, join the loiterer. Allen was there, and the group appeared to be reconnoitering the prison. Allen had also been noticed on the top of one of the housesnesx, and he was then seen to come down and talk to five or six others. Mr. Moore said he con sidered this suspicious, and went down to tell the governor so, but while doing this the explosion took place. Mr. Moore added an interesting piece of information as to the internal arrangements of the prison. It was to the effect that upon the, explosion being heard, the warders went to the stores, supplied themselves with arms, and rushed into the yard, to find no manly opponents, but the 50 or 60 feet of the brick wall that the murderous ruffians had blown down. After some irrelevant remarks the witness withdrew. _ _ The next witness, a policeman named Sutton, of the A reserve division, gave some direct testimony of the crime. He had been engaged in the special duty of watching the outside of the House of De tention ever since Burke and Casey had been imprisoned there. Justice visited the prison at one o'clock, while Allen waited outside, and when she came out she joined him ; they conversed together, were joined by Desmond, with whom they conversed for 20 minutes, and upon proceed ing to part a fourth man came up. This person accidentally pushed against the policeman, who was in plain clothes, begged his pardon, and asked a trifling question, to which the detective, with professional candour, replied ho was a stranger in the place. The man then walked off, having afforded Sutton a full opportunity of knowing him. Desmond, who was, it appears, particularly to be watched, went down Corporation-lane, and soon returned towards St. James 's -walk, drawing a truck with a barrel, which he put upon the pave ment, and continued up the walk, after stopping a minute or two. Sutton followed him, but at what distance he did not say. He next says he heard a tremendous explosion, and then saw Allen and the woman running away fast. He caught the woman, and another officer the man ; and Desmond, in running round the prison wall about the same time, was pluckily caught by Sutton, and held by the hand he could most conveniently disengage from the woman. He held both until assistance came. _ . . This was the evidence in chief, and the cross examination was trilling. The prisoner Desmond asked the witness whether he could swear he left the public-house more than two minutes, and the officer said " Yes." Desmond told him he perjured himself. The worthy magistrate rebuked the pri soner, and asked Allen what he had to ask ; and to which the prisoner appealed to said all he had to say was that he was helping Desmond, whom he had seen intoxicated in a public-house. Justice denied that she had ever run with Allen, where upon Allen added hastily, "It was enough to make any one run, was such an explosion." In reply to a question Sutton said the explosion fol lowed the placing the barrel upon the pavement at an interval of ten minutes. At this point the remand was asked for and obtained, leaving one thing unexplained which many in the court and many out would have liked to have cleared, namely, why, with so much suspicion, if not absolute warning, of impending mischief, and with such close tracking of the prisoner, time and opportunity were allowed for the fixing of the barrel and the insertion, lighting, fizzing, and burning of the fusee, all of which details are declared to have been observed plainly by different witnesses. If one might form an opinion from comments heard on the spot yesterday, this is a matter the settle ment of which will be very gratifying. No doubt further evidence and a little cross-examination will make all plain. No information is as yet forthcoming as to where £4OO Rnwsnii.—MOßDlll AID 01:TRAGIC BY EXPLOSION OP GUNPOWDEIL—Whereas about 3.45 p.m. on Friday. the 13th inst., the prison wall of the Middlesex House of Detention, ClerkenweU, was blown down by the expkedon of gunpowder, maliciously placed there, and several houses in Corporation-lane were destroyed by the explosion. and diver persons killed and dangeronslT mutilated thereby, SOU reward will be paid by her Majesty's government to any one who shall give such information as shall lead to the apprehension and conviction of the persons who con veyed the gunpowder and wend the above explosion.

ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO MURDER. A POLICEMAN. —At 5, late hour last evening information was received at Scotland-yard that an attempt had been made upon the life of a policeman on duty in Kennington-lane. The acting inspector on duty at the Kennington-lane police station persistently refused all information, but from other sources it was ascertained that a policeman had been shot at, but without receiving any injury.

JUVENILE " FaxiAlcs."—A schoolboy at New bury has narrowly escaped death by hanging, under rather singular circumstances. It appears that a number of lads under instruction at the National School in that town were in their play hour amusing themselves by a game to which they attached the title of "Feniani.m.^ With boyish humour they were in their own way giving some thing of a representation of the proceedings of the Fenian. at Manchester ; several arrests were made, and the game went on until it was decided by the youngsters to present the closing scene in the Manchester tragedy. For this purpose the group of lads adjourned to a r.eighbouring mahout*, where three of them volunteered to enact the scene on the scaffold. The brat boy who cam* forward was Alfred Twitchen, around whose neck a scarf was fas tened by a slip knot, and he was thereupon suspended from a b.am, where he hang for a few seconds, until his face became blackened, and there was fear th .t strangula tion would ensue ; happily, however, the knot slipped, and Twitchen, falling to the ground, escaped an untimely end. He had suffered sufficiently from the thoughtless freak as to beco.ne insensible, in which condition he was removed to his home, but be has now nearly recovered. The boys engaged in the affair were summarily punished, and the narrow escape of their companion will probably leave a lasting impression on their mods.
