English ores keep firm in price, but foreign are a trifle easier to buy. Iron is wholly without change. Tin is quiet in demand, but prices item steady. Flpelter has changed bands to a fair extent.

Ar SUICIDE ar DIACI/IJARS BRIDGE. List night, shortly before nine o'clock, great eseitensest was reused amongst the numerous passengers and in the 'team-boats peening under BLickfriars• irming to the following determined attempt made by • man and his sister to commit self-murder. It appears that a man named emerge Want, who works at a wool warehouse in Thames.street, re seeded to his sister's in Holland.street, Blackfnars read, to supper, and whilst there a quarrel 'rage from some cause, and, getting into • great passion, he swore he would go and drown himself. The female said if he did she would& the mine. The man then ran out in a state of frenzy, and upon reachingthe first pier recess on the north-west side, he piveipitated himself head-foremost over the buttress, and fell into the water ; in his descent he must have struck the pier head of the bridge, as his foot is broken acmes, and his knee. and one of his s hins are terribly cut. Mr. It. Ware, the master of the steamboat pier, in order to give instruc tions to the men in the boats, as to the direction the man was floating, went to the upper side of the bridge, when the sister of the unfortunate man came rushing upon the bridge and having mounted the seat of the recess made a violent attempt to throw herself over also. Fortunately Mr. Ware managed to mire bold of her, and after a desperate resistance oil her part, he prevented her. Mr. Inspector King, of the river police, and the men under his charge, succeeded in rescuing the man, who was removed to fit. Bartholomew's Hospital, where be remains without hopes of reccvery. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON Lf' . This (Saturday) morning, information wail re ceived by Mr. Carter, coroner for Surrey, of • frightful accident which occurred at the New-crass Station of the London and Brighton Railway to John Carp en t er , a y oung men, about 24 years of age, the son of Mr. Inspector Carpenter, in the employ of the company. It appears that the deceased, who was a ticket collector at the London-bridge Railway Terminus, resided with his father at Deptford, and on Fri. lay afternoon, about three o'clock, he entered the Se cows star ion by a vide entrance, for tbe purpose of proceeding to London. At this time there weirs two trains at the station, an up-train and • dowadrain, and in order to avoid the latter, he jumped immediately between the up-line of rails, not bring aware that the up-train had already started on its journey. Before, however, the un fortunate decemol could recover himself, he was knocked down by the engine, the train pasting com pletely over him, mangling him in • frightful manner, various portions of his Wily being picked op in different and distant parts. The remains hating bum gathered up were conveyed to a neighbouring tavern to await an inquest.. MEETINGS OP' CREDITORS. A meeting was held yesterday of the creditors of Mr. W. Carpenter, leather-seller, of the New Kent-mad, who suspended payment on the 4th inst. The balance-sheet presented by Mr. Cole man, of the firm of Coleman, Turquend, Youngs, and Co., shows liabilities amounting to 25,3711., and assets to 10,948/., or Bs. fid. in the pound. In January, 1857, Mr. Carpenter estimated that his estate showed a suplus of 12,700/. but Mr. Colo n= stated that it then was really only 4,0791. The profits from that date up to the present time have amounted to 9,2201. In reply to a question, it was elicited that transactions in accommodation bills to the extent 2,0671. have been traced, while bills have also been given in exchange for other's ; • creditor thought, therefore, that the estate ought to be thrown into bankruptcy. On the day of the stoppage it was thought advisable to present a peti tion in the Court of Bankruptcy under the arrange ment clauses. On behalf of Mr. Carpenter, a com position of Bs. iu the pound was offered, payable in four equal instalments, the last secured, extending over twelve months. This was eventually agreed to, and the petition iu the Bankruptcy Court will consequently be taken otf the file. Attliemeeting yestenlayof thecreditorsofMewars. John Ridley and Sons, hide and leather merchants, of Newcastle and London, who stopped on the sth inst., a balance-sheet was read by Mr. C. F. Kemp, the accountant, showing liabilities amounting to 23,0841., and assets to 5,3661., and presenting 4s. 61 in the pound. It appear that Mr. Ridley entered into farming business, in which he has sunk about 3,0001., having met with continuous liiieres; he also s uffered severely in the panic of 1837. Ou looking into his affairs in that year, be believed himself to be solv e nt, b u t th e acco untant thinks the contrary was the case. The trading from March last up to the time of the suspension shows • loos of 4861. During the last two or three years Mr. Ridley has traded without any capital ; he has also entered into accommoda tion bill transactions. Some strong remarks were made by a creditor, who stated that his goods were taken by Mr. Ridley on the 10th of June last, when the latter asserted that ho was in a solvent position. The stock is valued by the firm at 2,384/., to the surprise of several of the creditors, who expressed a belief the the value must he much greater ; in 1857 it was estimates! at 20.0001. It was proposed to pay a composition of 4s. iu the pound, in instalments of Is. Gl., Is. Gil., and Is., at 3,6, and 9 months, but a resolution was passed appointing two inspeetoni to examine into the estate and to report at an djourued meeting. A meetingalsotook place yesterday of thecreditors of M.-ssrs. D. and J. Mackintosh, tanners, of Ber mondsey, who failed on the 3rd inst. Thu balance sheet prepared by Mr. C. F. Kemp, the accountant, computes the liabilities at 10,6641., and the assets at 8,204'.. showing above 15s. in the pound. The only bail feature in the case, it was re marked, consists in the fact that bills have been exchanged with other firms in the same trade. The trading from July, 1857, up to the time of the stoppage, shows a loss of MD 1 . The firm is prepared to make an offer of 12s. in the pound, payable in equal instalments extend ing over a year, but uo disposition was evinced to agree to this, several creditors stating that the estate is more likely to realise 20s. in the pound. It was finally agreed to wind up under inspection. At the meeting of the creditors of Mr. W. A. Page, in the leather trade, it was agreed to accept a composition of 10s. in the pound, in instalments at three, six, and nine months. His liabilities amount to 8,4481., and assets to 3,5291.
