Tan MIAOW FRAUDS ote gas Pooa.—A crowd of persons assembled at this court in the expectation of hearing 131110 further elucidation of the ease of the depositors of the Ratcliffe Provident Society, a kind of penny bank, vernu John Harwood, its manager, end aloe a scripture reader. It will be remembered that en Friday, December 20,h, when subscribers were withdrawing deposits, Harwood stopped payment, and 'haired applicants to call to morrow. The morrow came but not Harwood, upon which the depo sitors went to the Rev. Mr. Williams, upon whom they believed they had a claim for the money. This gentleman disclaimed all liability, hence the oppeel to the police °curt. Mr. Williams has since declared his reedinese to pledge his stipend, only 1601., for the reimbursement of the deficiency, at the same time not admitting any direct obligation to do so. Oa the present occasion Mr. Yardley asked Harwood whether he bad any statement to make with respect to the delete:often'? His statement, which was very confused, and owing to the noises in the court several times inaudible, was to the effect that, owing to the closing of the Limehouse Savings Bank between the months of November and December, coupled with the quantity of work he had to do in his various de• parmimts, the books were hastily kept, and some irregularity might have crept into them. He had not the documents then by him, but he believed the deficiency might amount to something less than 701. Mr. Yardley—How, then, do you propose to make up for the deficiency ? Harwood—l had nitre onerous duties to perform, and they were too heavy for a single men to accomplish. Here a variety of accounts were partially entered into, and numerous books produced, but Mr. Yardley said that be could not consistently with his other duties go through a aeries sr accounts so somplisstsd. A gentleman who did not give his name here stepped for ward and said that as secretary to the Scriptural Readers So ciety, be begged leave to state to his worsdip that Harwood was not authorised by that body to connect himself as secre tary or treasurer to any fond, though some misapprehension misstatement to that effect had get into some of the paper. Kr.Yardley—lf that appeared in any paper it must bosom. mistake, for no such statement was made here, but by whom. sourer he was appointed it appeared that money bad been received which was not forthoonuag, and the question wes whit wasanswerable for the defalcation. Poor people wars naturally inclined to repose confident* in persons who went under the denomination of scripture readers and a deplorable effect would ensue, not only in this case 'but g Ily, ii such confidence should be destroyed by any mystification. Harwood—The only mystification arises out of the hurry, and the consequence is that I and my family have been thrown out of employment by statements which appeared in the papers, but which lam sure Mr. Williams could have made. Mr. Williams—l made no statement likely to prejudge or prejudice the ow. Harwood—ln some of the prints it was stated that I received 1661. from the Lintehmase Bank. That is not th fact, nor, as far as I can understand, was it stated in the open court. Mr. Yardley—As a public officer, you should have kept the money received by you in a separate box, so as not to be mixed with any outlay of your own. There is no doubt that you are liable for the defalcation, but as regards your future prospects in life, it is to you a question of great ' moment.

BOILER EETLIMION AT CLAXIIEDOII, DCIMAII. Os Friday week Ism an inpleette, which canoed the instan taneous death of two persona, occurred at the Ford Paper Mot, Clesheugh, situated on the banks of the Wear, about three miles from Sunderland. There are, it appear', two oasis's to work the machinery of the mill, which 'resupplied by steam from tire cylindrical boilers about 26 feet by 6 each. These boilers were "mimed in a building to the west of the mill itself, the walls of which were of subtends' mason work, although the roof was of 'lighter *marathon. The engines were kept in motion night and day. The boiler which exploded we. the fourth from tte engine ; it had only recently been thoroughly repaired, and was considered the strongest in the building. Tee accident occurred at about a quarter to seven in the morning, when the neighbourhood was suddealy alarmed by the report of the exploaion.which wee, however, drowned in the noise of the steam which instan taneously moped from all the boilers. After the first alarm had Winded it was found that a large portion of the boiler-house had given way, the roof haviog been completely taken off. Stone", slates, and tetra were mattered in all directions around, over the roof of the mill, and for some distance in the neighbouring fields. Half of the boiler had bees forced through a thick wall into the carpenters' shop, which was unroofed, and the fittings of which wore either much damaged or entirely destroyed, while the other = weighing certainly not lus than two tons, bad been over the roof of the mill and lodged in the hill side, at • distance of upwards of 100 yards, heating down a stone wall in its way. A smaller ponies was found on the road at some distances from the boiler-kora. The accident was not eon. fined to damage to property. A man and • boy, the former' named Thomas Oliver • fireman, and the latter, his eon, Jelin Oliver, were killed by it. Thomas Oliver had charge Oho fire under the exploded boiler, and from the position be which his body was found alter the sad Gramme', it is evident that he had bees on his way to the coal depot for meta when he was so suddenly deprived of life. Hs has left • wife and six or seven children. His eon Thome, who was employed in another part of the mill, bad just come Into the boiler-hones a few minutes previous, to see his father ; stud he aloe was found dead. The bodies were shockingly wanted ; they were completely buried amongst the ruins the building. It was exradingly fortunate that the explosion took pleat at the time it did, for had it occurred much sooner or much later the sacrifice of life must have been considerably greater, as shortly before there were a large number al workmen in the boiler-house, and shortly after no fewer than • doges would have been assembled rased the fires at breakfast. It is aho very fortunate that the portioas of the exploded boiler took the directions which they did; for bad the large porticia which we have stated to hive been thrown such • distance taken a course more to the eastward, it would have gone through the fool of the vigor mill, where it must have greatly damaged tic mashirery, and probably set fire to • large quantity of rev Mho upper Matey. Such (says the Suseariarsal Herold) a statement of the occurrence itself; but it will be dlfil , salt, if not impossible, to account for the cause of it. Practical sea who have been insisters all their lives, con- I fres, aftv exa mining the premises_ that they are quite na -1 able to assign • reason for it. There tan have bra no deficiency of water in the boiler; and that Dancing did not take place is apparent from the fact that • plese of hemp which was inside, and at the spot where the crack took place, is not tinged in the slightest degree. The enginionan had examined the valves only a few minute' before the explosion and he states that the,. was net sufficient steam to set the eagles is andea. The valves remain in the meet position in which they were at the somene of the esplosion, and they corroborate his statement. Se that it some impossible to account for it by any of ordinary eaves. An inquest on the bodies of the saran was commenced at Hylton on Saturday and contained eh Thursday, but no decision aas yet been come to. THE CONDEMNED CONVICTS AT Yom—The Os.

Hitherto, the only means which they had of °Maims snob advances was through the satire Waken, who have always exhibited a strong 4W&. teAnnerfout ootton,and have always refused to make advances on the crop, on the ground that it wan more precarious than the native cotton.
