It is usual for the " heated nail "to stop at Tam. worth. We took in truer at Tamworth, and stopped them shoot thrm mimics. We received the signal from the • guard to "go on." I had no communication with say one at the Tainworth staters. Never spell* to any one these, midi so me spoke to use. Before we strived at the sta. tam at Tainwurtb, the Liverpool goods train was shouted. We hft Tarowortli at 1.313. That is, I believe, one talents before time, emotions to the tune table.

When 1 was at the Tammith station I New i Koori:roft. I think he is the foremen of the porters there ; 1 and as I was leaving I leant over the aide to learn if be had anything to say. but he said nothing. I was sot told after leering Stafford of nay train before as out of the proper course.. My work began at Stafford. I got borne from London at half past eight the previous night, and did nothing till I left with the mail train a Friday evening. Charles Henry (;,rick, guard of the Scotch mail train, was next oiled In Lis evideoce he mid—l have been a little over four years in the employ of the London and North j Weuteru Railway. On Friday morning I was in charge of the limited mei! train, which I joined at Preston. We left Preston at 11.14 p.m. Everything went on all right till we I approached Tamworth, when the auxiliary signal showed •• re 4," but it dropped to " white," and we then welt into the ,cation. We • cited thme while the civile took water, and we got in the mail bags, and then having received the 1114631 from the inspector we left the station. lfoorcroft war the lesion who gave the signal ; he is the platform in- epictor at the station.

I put toy hand to the break. foal ',limed my foot against the lower part of it, but Isiloru I could bring it well to bear upon the wheels, the train wcnt slap into the other. I was thrown with my head against the side, and the break van mounted up into the air. Coroser—Did you roe any light at the auxiliary signal! None whatever. if the signal hail been there 1 must have . rnal sees it. I saw nothing main but the • L j and the police man's hand lamp. 1 saw the main ' just before ooming to the curve.

In the course of hi further examination the witness said—lan remember nothing more that took place after the collision until I was taken out of the van. I then aesi.ted in carrying two of the drovers away from the place, sad saw a gold watch and chain takes froM one of the men and gives to some ow who was stud. lAi by. 1 ea intimated by the meaner that the police bed charge of all the property fu :nil on the deceased , aml that orders had bees ova to have • strict 'earth made in the clothes of the rota, as it wee their custom to have the mosey sews up is their tremors.

The white light might have been about half a mile distant from the main ; it was not mare than that. On seeing the main signal I appthed the Wank, bat before I had got it fairly on the oofn took plow I was not throws oat of my van, but my shoulder wee ban, and also my Mb a MIL. Hy • Jena—This in the eseand week of my working on the Wino no mad. and the Ind week that I have been em *yid antics asetkin of it. I bed grearkinsly been in the sap eity at gunner, having hew nine years in the ser►ice of the timpaity. I was at W e•don, Northampton, and other stations. Mr. Oleabereirplained that on the Tamworth side of the "sin signal there are two level crossings which have while bible ; and this fact would no doubt explain the evilest* el the witness as to having seem the white lights. He stated that he would at the next meeting be prepared with plans showing the positioa of the lights and Of the sidings. The within sated in answer to Mr. Cleather, that be was only the under guard, and had not charge of the train. John Watts said—l was driver of the cattle train on Fri day kat I ,have been four mouths in the employ of the London and North Western Company as ea anise-driver, and as an extra 00gine-driversioce the 26th of Mara, when I was registered. I was driver of the cattle , tab which left Stafford at eighteen minutes past 12 on FA day morn*. The train consisted of 26 cares aurora cattle and horns, one guard's break,' drone/ three 4Tc -loads of goods. The goods were next c ea gine and e cattle next to the goods. From what I have ems since the collision I suppose the drovers' van was next to the cattle, and then the guard's break. The Inman with me was Charles Clark ; be has been with me for the last four months, with the exception of one night. After leaving Stafford the first place at which we stopped was Tamworth. We arrived there at M minutes past one. The "all right " signals were shown. We stopped shoat ten minutes at the Tamworth station to take In coke, to run into sidings, detach engms, and attach it again to the train. We leit Tamworth at 3b minutes past one. I aiw Moorcroft, the inspector, at the station . He spoke to me about goinngg es. I said to him, " Whet are we to do ? " meaning wbathsr to go or not. He said, " Yea, get out of the road? By that I understood we were to go on, and get out of the way of the train. I did not under stand him to mean that I was to "shunt." I have driven similar cattle trains before. I said to Mocncroft, "My mate has gone to get a shovelful of sand. Wait till he coma hack, mid thee I will go on. It is a vet 7 slippery night, hut I will do my best to get on." He said I was to go to Nanette& and shunt there for the "limited mail" train. He did not say anything about stopping at Attar stone. Some discussion took place at this stage as to the pro pp ordering all witnesses to leave the room, but it w w as t decided that there was no necessity for this step. Examination resumed—Moorcroft was the proper officer to give inarnettoos for 'tatting I told him that I had been slipping • good deal from Stafford, and that the road was very slippery. I asked him when the mail was due. He said, "Oh, you've twentytwo minute@ ; there is plenty of time, and you have only fourteen miles to run." I started the train. I had brought one shovelful of sand, and no mate another, and put it on the engine u it was shut*. It was Dot bill • minute after he told me to go that I stated. On getting near Atherstone, and finding that the mail we nearly due, I ran into A therstoos to shut. My engine eh • little for the first mile and a half—sai partlealirly much for slippery weather. When she got on the higher part on the embankment the engine stuck to the rails and got on very well, until I a -1 rived at Athenian. I was about twelve minutes getting to Polsworth • that is about three miles from Tamworth. With • train like that which I had in charge, and with the rails in good order, the engine could make the raa is about twenty-four or twenty-Eve minutes. It was Ire maybe past two when i got into Athena's'. I mopped at Abbas stone to shunt for the limited mail, which I found wee so nearly dna, as I sikuld not have had time to get to Nen ate& As I was dmering through the station I shouted to the plateau at the inks. "I will shunt for the mail train to pan." I meld not bear any reply. 1 blew my Wallah to eoll the eamtion of the poiotsman at the other end of the ratan, and chided to let him know that I was going to "shunt' The pointamsa waved the temp, as mach as to tn i s t ais. " all right," and fol lowed after mete tun the I ran put the pdnte drew up, stopped the red looked out for a signal train the pointernee to ems leek. Oa receiving the signal I reversed the engine. and as I wee hacking the train, and had gone beck four or live a oas, I saw the mail coming. I said to my male, " The mail h in ;" hut had hardly said it before it struck the train. I stopped my engine, after gotta( • " bump " forward, and went back with the train. I left the engine as somas I could, and ran tack to es= had been done. The first thing I saw was the " man " of my train, and he said that the best thing would be to block the line. Inn back to my as as giddy as possible, detached It, and went on to Mancetter a which is about • mile from the place t.f the oollision.7 .l a ing the apel a white light I turned it on to " red " myssif, in order to hack the clown line. I then milled up Ho the gateman at the crossing, and made him dans himself, and told him sot to allow anything to pass on any eon. adoration, as there was a collision lust below. I thin returned to the cabin with the engine, where I found several parsons engaged Ia removing the bodies and clear ing the line. By a Juror—l know the auxiliary signal, and when I pseud sew the white light there. Am certain that I saw the white auxiliary light. I saw the other white lights at the crossings as well. It is customary for the drover's car riage to be at the end of the mule train. By the Corooer— When I left Stafford I had no orders where to stop. We look to the stations to get instructions 'to start. Moovcroft was the proper officer to give Matra ! tioos at Tamworth. I could not have shunted at Polaworth because there are no *oak there to protect a shunting train. By • Juror—lt is • very heavy reed from Tamwortb to Atlantan. If the rails had not been slippery it would have been a very "tight run" to got to Nuneaton from Tamworth is twenty-five minutes. Charles Clark examined, aid--I left Stafford at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock, and was fireman with the last whams. At Tamworth we took in water and coke, and stopped thin about ten misuses. I saw the inspector while waiting there. The rails were slippery that night, and I went to get sand ; when I came heck the engine was in motion for gob( on. I did not hear anything which took place betimes the 11•4 witness and Moorcroft The rails were irry for about a mile and a half after leaving T I was on the side of the engine, and could not see whether the auxiliary signal was lighted or not. All I that I saw wen white aces. At the ttherstone Station my mate shouted that he was going to shunt, sod whistled to the fibber& He lathed the steps taken by the lea whams, and the esilieles which ensued. The rib which contained the deceased was the last but one in the train, the last being the teeth -van. I was not bat at the moment of the The inquiry was the. adjourned until Wednesday next. TIES FATAL COLLII&Y EXPLOSION IN SOUTH WAIJK —The inquest upon the bodies of the unfortunate men killed by the recent explosion of firedamp in the Lower Duffryn Colliery was brought to a does or Saturday. Mr. T. Evan, her Majesty's impactor of mines for South Wales, and Mr. Lionel Brunei, the inspector for Mamma shire, Soinemetshire, and the Forest of Dean, were stain in attendance. The former of these gentlemen stated in the course of his evidence that it was reasonable to believe that the decreed collier Box had the gauze off his lamp, and in his (Mr. Evan's) opinion it was the naked flame of his lamp that was the immediate cause of the explosion, but the primary cause was the undue accumulation of firedamp. Blasting the coal was attended with danger in fiery mines where locked safety lamp are used, end it ought not to be allowed. Many serious accidents bad arisen from the practice, and be hoped that in future It would be &aeon tioned. He most alarmedly recommended that some steps should be taken in addition to the special rules now in force, whereby more severe punishment than mere fine should be inflicted apm all persons guilty of so dangerous a practice as removing the puss from their lamps, or tamper ing with them for the purpose of smoking. The fireman or other competent person ought to examine all the lamps each morning before the men Pied them delivered to them, and the duty ought certainly not to devolve on a boy. The coroner thought colliery proprieton ought to see that men employed in such important capacitim were properly instructed. They ought not to employ uneducated men. The immense extent of the property at stake and of the capital involved ought to induce them to exert themselves to obtain the services of educated men. The coroner summed up at some length, and the jury returned a verdict of " Aoci. dental Death." Late inttlitsnut.

Where upon he (the learned counsel) applied to the j•edge to attach Howse. Mr. Justice Blackburn, however, was unwilling to assume the responsibility of committing Howse to prison, but referred the matter to the full court. The learned counsel had, therefore, in purautace of that directke now to apply for an attachment sit Howse, or for an ceder compelling him to produce the . Mr. Digby appeared on the other Ede, and said he was with explanations on behalf of Howes. The Chief Justice mid nothing but a return to the writ would satisfy the court. Mr. Seymour Oren said he would be prepared with aftl. davits a little later in the day. Subsequently, Mr. Seymour having stated that he was now prepared with affidavits, Mr. Sleigh moved that Howes be committed for ecatempt, his return to the writ Wag evasive sad impertinent. l'he rotors was then read, sad was to the following effect : Howse stated that had tees requested by one Mary Ann. Burford, step mother of Charlotte Barford, to take charge of her, the (Mary Anne B ar f or d ) informing him th a t she bad left h er father's house ea the ground al cruelty. That on Thursday, the Bth of November, Charlotte Barford had accompanied him to his hones, 11, George-street, Here ford-street, Old Lent-road, at the wish and by. the direction of the said Mary Anne Barford, and that she remained there until Wednesday last, the 14th instant. That on that day she went to the house of her aunt, Mrs. Crawford, at NewWitoa, and that since thee he had neither seen Charlotte Buford, nor had he had any communication with her directly or indirectly. However, he bad bees het night inlensed that •gentiemso named Gilbert, whom he (Howse) led never seen, called on Thursday at Mrs. Ciawfoses j had on the authority of soother aunt of Obarletas &dud's, namely, Mrs. Barbel Hopkins, he re awed her from Mrs. Crawford's and had taken her to Had field. Mr. neigh submitted that that was not a sufacieut re turn. It was evasive. Howse did not set forth that the girl was not sow under his control. The Loud Oldof Justice—Suppose the girl has got into the heads of her reislires who atonal in loco pinata, would not slue be this beyesd hi control ? Mr. D. Seymour said Howse was quite ready to insert the declaration suggested, and to date the lady was Dow beyond hie control. Mx. libugh would contend that eves this the rehire would be bad. Howes did not ear weld he slate that the girl wss not in his pcossecica at the time al the moth( at the writ. Seymour, reading from Howes silidevits, mid that Bowes heft his house on Wednesday mermagatsot (Meek, aid that he dad not ream hum. until midniot, when he ewe informed, far the fleet time, that Charlotte Br ked had left for Newingtina ; that he was not aware that say applkatioa had bees made to this court until about elms o'clock es Thunday, the 15th, when he wee hemmed of the same by a friend. mid that the father la lug alldavit set out that he IMd ham to Mrs. Chawfoni, and wee neither allowed to smelt the home for his child aor mold he pin any tidings of her. The Chief Justice said the matter had better stand over until the risiag of the court, when the affidavits on the other side could be produced in en amended form. Accordingly, lust before four o'clock, the Chief Justice, however, having been obliged to leave the court upon prow initusinew, . Sleigh again called upon their lcadithips to at tach Hawse, whose return to the writ was clearly bad in law. In the first plaos, he carefully avoided stating that which, according to "The King v. Vince (2 Lerma), WM essential, namely, that at the time of the liming of the writ the girl was not under his control. It was quite clear she was in his custody at West Wednesday until 6 aen esday stemma, aad on Wednesday wanbis delt it Whereas a Nat ter of pubic ackaisty that the quit Wid Wee applied for.

She came to him at the instance of her step mother, who complained that she bad threatened to commit suicide on account of her father', cruelty, and she therefore implored Bowie to take her eider his guardianship.

Now the fact was that she was the sister of the child'. step-mother, the present Mrs. /holm& Hopkins in hid dadmit swore that he believed the girl was now at St. Al ban& And it was also airfoil on the face a the return that Mr. Barford had behaved with habitual cruelty to his wife, the step-mother el the girl Charlotte Warlord. Mr. Justice Illackhorn—We cannot enter ieto that ques tion now. Of course, if it should tura out by and by that Mr. Warlord is not a proper person to have the custody of his child, the court can in ere to prevent him. Mr. Sleigh maid he must here interpme to remind the court of what wm stated la Mr. Barford's affidavit. It set out that Mr. Barford, having been informed some time ago that a certain person, au intimate friend of Howse, was trying to pin the affections of his daughter, he Lad arranged to send her, in company with her sister, to school in Bs ; and that, pending the carrying out of that arrangement, be bad made the discovery that secret reds- Oats submitted between this seine person sod Lis wife which disouvery had led to a separation between himeedi and his wife. ___ _._........ Mr. Justice Hill, i n delivering judgment, said—lf it bad been made out that the return was really evasive the court would have no difficulty in issuing the attechment. But il the faeta set out do sot exact ly show that the return is evasive, although some of theallega tions are very doubtful and sail very near th e wind. Pesti the statements is the return are bean fide, possibly they are not. The proper course, therefore, is to let a writ of habeas issue addremed to Mn. Crawford and Mrs. Hopkins, the writ of commit ment against Howse to stood over until the return to the other writ is made. Then, when all the feet. are before the court, if it should turnout that Hoeree's return usenet boon fide, the court will have no hesitation is attaching him. Mr. Sleigh asked that the writ against Hopkins and Craw. ford should be made returnable on Monday. Mr. Justice Hill—Yes, let it be returnable at once ; but you meat lose no time in nett.* it drawn up, as the process n nos which can't be served on Sunday. EXPAITI WILLIAM TROMPIKAL -HABEAS 001F011.

Yr. M. Chambers now moved the court, with the view of didahsg the practice, observing that the question was whether the new set was to have a retrospective effect, this masa having be brought before the statute came into —sties.

THE SHOCKING rum= IN IRELAND. The Derry Sentinel says :—" Murray left his cottage about 10 o'clock on Tuesday morning, eitrompanied by two or three dogs, to look after his master's estate, and had travelled seedy & mile and • half from home when he met his bite. The police had ben scouring the country from the first suspn that Murray had been foully made away with. Their search, however, on Tuesday and Wedneiday, proved ineffectual. The tenantry on the Adair ante were warned to turn out, they being familiar with the dis trict, and search for the mining land-steward, whom they shortly succeeded in finding at the foot of • pre cipice, at the distance from his home mentioned above, about ins o'clock on Thursday morning, and they at once brought the intelligence to a party of police who were • for the day's search, and all hastened to the spot and f the corpse of poor Storey. He lay on his beck, on a ledge of one of the rocks near the foot of the precipice, with his face turned upward& One of his arms lay scram his breast, and the other by his aide. His hair was dishevelled, clotted with blood, and the eyes via. The body bore marks of violence sufficient to prove that Mur ray met his death by violence. The poor fellow WOW to have made a desperate fight for life, for all along the edge of the precipice footman:a indicate that • struggle took em. The face of the murdered man presented • sad epee- Immediately under the right eye was a frightful wound, as if inflicted by a blunt instrument, and there was a similar wound on the right temple. Murray's skull, upon examination, was found to have been com pletely smashed in. His shirt and the breast of his eon were torn by the hands of the fiends who murdered him. Neer where the corns lay was found a five-barrelled revolver, with the stock smashed. The police sine thatthe wood part was completely wrenched from the steel week. Upon inspecting this weapon it was found that one el the barrels had been discharged. Near to the body was bend a large stone, weighing about seven pounds, eivered4: blood and hair. There was also found near the a button, which corresponded with those on his shirt. body was carried to the cottage which he bad left only two mornings before in health sad strength.

The Smithfield Club have just published a very interesting tabular statement of the entries, showing the amounts of money offered for prises in each clam for the past three years, with the average amount for each entry, and the aggregate sum is vary large. Although tole is the hat year but one, unless there should be rod failure with the Islington scheme, every arrangement is being made at the llakerstreet Bazaar not only to accom modate the increased artiouct of stock, but also the agricul tural implements. From all that can be ascertained up to the present time, the show of 1860 will, both in quantity as well as quality, be equal to any of its predecessors.

HARDWARE.— Braunrottext, Nov. 17.—Trade here pre. nerves a moderate degree of animation, quite as much of it as can be expected in this usually dull mouth, eves were there no disturbing influences having • taidaney to aback business operations generally. The foreign orders in are moderate, almost without exception ; • few have been re ceived here this week from Australia, but of the bulk of the manufactures of this district the markets are glutted, and the ourrespoodente of the merchants strongly adrift an entire cessation of shipments for a time except for any par titular clams of goods which may be specially ordered. The American trade is, at this moment, moderate, but a few orders for Staffordshire iron were received by the last mail The comparatively healthy condition of trade here at this moment is mainly attributable to the home demand ; the country shopkespers,who have been keeping docks down all the summer, and at the commencement of the autumn gave out moderate orders only, are now obliged to make up stocks, finding that the demand for th e c l ass o f goods usually wanted at this season is better than they had anti cipated it would be. The consequence of this is that the great body of the manufacturers here are doing an average trade ; most of the manufactories are on fail time ; and there are comparatively few persons who can with justice complain that employment is di ffi cult to be obtained. Many manufacturers prefer • quiet trade like the present, then when it is brisker, and the fluctuations in the metal market are more considerable. The Staffordshire iron trade con tinues dull—in fact It almost amounts to depression • and one or two of the recent stoppages have had • bad eff ect in ' that part of the district, where operations at the works have been discontinued. The coal trade is remarkably good; those who are in that branch of the trade in South Stafford shin and East Worcestershire are better off than they have been for years. 001TON.—Lrv1Euvot., Nov. 17.—Oar market con tinues may quiet, at yesterday's prices. The sales are 5,000 bales, indodiog 4,700 American, 4d. to Rd.; 300 Surat, 4gd. to 51d. —of which 300 are for export. To day's import is 5,063 balm. COTTON GOODS.--MANCREISTIR, Nov. 17.—1 t was stated in our report of yesterday, that the somewhat rapid and elfliOUS rim in discounts had affected the market for cotton yarns and cloths unfavourably, and we fi nd the effects of it to-day to • very marked extent. There is etill some business doing, because many manufacturers, not under contract, have an aversion to accumulating stocka, and have been willing to meet buyers with Id. to lid. per piece reduction where sales of any extent could be effected. They have been the more easily led to this course, seeing that the speculation aaivetpool in the raw material has been very effectually checked by the greater dearness of money, and that cotton has already undergone some reaction in price. On the whole, however, business is on a much restricted wile, and buyers of both yarn and cloth are acting with great caution. For India, exports to whose marten' are usually paid for in long-dated paper, most seriously affected by the rise of disoounte,there is almost nothing doing, and shi ppe rs generally are disposed to execute their most pressiug or ders, hom etrade buyers of cloth regard the market as very dis ernmegieg, finding that money isscarcer through a restricted trade during spring and summer, and that the higher rate of =Mmust necessarily contract the means of their uof consumers. The orders still held by some at the leading spinners and manufacturers enables them to ad here with a good deal of firmness to last quotations, but still buyers of most kinds of 36 and 40 inch shirtinp elan obtain them at a alight reduction, and long cloths and T cloths are weaker in price. Printers are moderately steady, but thrre is scarcely anything doing. Yarns are rather firm generally, but buyers axe scarcely doing anything. Cops, from X's upwards, are slightly eater. WOOLLEN. —Liens, Noy. 17.—The market has not presented any festive of importance this morning perhaps a slight improvement might be noticed in the demand for ordinary cloths, but the aggregate business was limited. The tone of the market wrs not so firm as last week ; although any giving way in prices would not, under ordinary circumstances, be probable, in face of augmented prices in raw material.

WATWORD, Nov. 17.—Our arrivals of foreign grain for the week are considerable, but supplies of our own growth with the exception of oats, have been small. We have had the trade quiet for most articles, and prices have slightly given way. Wheat : in the value of Irish scarcely any change has occurred, the quantity on offer being so trifling, but foreign must be written 3d. per barrel cheaper, with rather more doing in fine qualities. Barley in good request and fully as dear. tats: the late advance has brought forward a considerable supply by boats, and prices have receded 3d. to 4d. per barrel the last sly or two ; at the decline some large sales have been made.
