Easter always occurs so early in the year that the qiiestion o.f the weather is neeessanly a most important one. Toaolay, tf not absolutely fine, the weather has hsppily been such as at all events not to confine to the Louse, or to indoor attractions, the humble metro politan multitude. The early morn was for the time ..f cheery seal even torilliAnt, the sun shining forth with all the splendour of summer, and thou • owls, 1:1.. ll..Uht calculating CO the continuance of a pica porous sky, t•sok ,elvo,tage of the various excursion trains high the railway conijanies bad so liberally provided. The present a eor will indeed form an epoch in the history of C1...1.01 , 11 traffic ; for at so previous ps•riod have plo..asure.seekers been touveyed to dil -1 trot parts of the country at so low ante. The South F.0.b.-in, the• south Oast, and the South Western boards have put forth the moat attractive routes, at tariffs which would suit the exchequer even of the humblest operative or domestic servant. Formerly it wee considered something wonderful to convey persons to Brighton and hack for as. ikl., or to and from Ramsgate and Margot.. for 7s. GI., hut now, adopting an idea broached s .mu time ago that railway travelling ought to be con duet al as it were upon the penny .postal principle, the two coni piano.. Mouth And south. East have tried the experiment of es eur ai,a n i s t s to Brighton and lack for 2s. 6d. a sal to Nfsrpte Audi Ramsgate and back for Is. It is too early as yet to say how far the experiment has siweesaled, hut if we may judge by the crowds of people hastening in the direction of the stations, awl the number of distinct excursion trains provided for their accommodation, these marine resorts must hare hail an influx of visitors which will have 11 - awn them at Imre into their summer experience of a metropo litan invasion. The Brighton twoand.sixpenny journey on Goosl Friday and this morning taxed the ingenuity of the t rain ma nshaller to find carrisgee adequate to the emergency Not long as" a single train sufficed on occasions like the present, but in this instance three, and even four, trains have had to h• despatched in quick succession. The South Eastern Railway has met with almost an equal amount of patronage; but probably, owing to the length of the j•oarnev, the Isle of Wight excursionists by the South Western line were comfortahly packed in a moderateosised single train. The short excurni Ma to Hampton Court, Richmond, Epping Forest, Gravesend, Woolwich, and Windsor, were all as as extensive scale. This Crystal Palace, the British and South Kensing ton Museums. the National Gallery, the Tower of Loudon, the Thames Tunnel, the Parks, and Primrose-hill, hays displayed the usual &iglu of the first great public holiday of the year ; the number of frequenters probably being swollen by the gigantic quota furnished by the cheap special trains bong theprorinoss. It is a curious circumstance thataltboegi i:re..iiwich Fair has now become legally extinct, the tonality mill fully maintains it.. hold upon the holiday folk, sad this morning the park hill was dotted with plenum parthe. To revert to the opening topic of this notice, it may observed that in the coons of the morning there were one or two slight storms of non an.l sleet, but as the day advanced the sky and at. lwanis clear, and even genial, and despite • strong nirth.westerly wind the rays of the sun most have rendered the riat to the coast and the open air amusements generally most invigorating and enjoyable. This evening the theatres and other kindred resorts will no doubt WON in tor • Lags shin of pnblk support. TINS IN PHI CITT.-(THIS DAY.) This morning, for several hours, the greatest alum, prevailed in the neighbourhocel of the (lemma Post ..ei to the raging of n fire, which could not be r*tiliguidiel until property of considerable value was laid in now.. and the lives of the whole of the inmates greatly jeaponlisell. The premises in which the disaster comnwoced belonged to Mr J. Cole, a licensed victualler, sal were known by the sign of the Coach and Hone. Tavern, situate at No. IA Aldemple-street. The building, four stories high, eaclueive of Bo basement, WA/ joined un either aide by houses equally lofty —on the north by the extensive printing-offices belonging to Moor. Meilen and Bingham, anil on the south by the haber dashery warehouse of Mr. J. W. Gslea, whilst numerous other bows abutted on the rear. The fire was discovered by a police-constable of the City force who saw IMES ai ng fn,m, me of the window% bat at that time there wean* appearance of lame at the outside. TM officer at ones gave an alarm, and sent if for the Royal Society's escapee stationed at Altlersgate-street and Cbespads. la about five minutes the two escapes arrived, when the °reductor, found jonce'e sheets of flame coming from nearly every window. The t-icaliet having been pitched in front of the house, Heiken, one of the conductors, ascended, and fought his way through the dames at the moment the affrighted inmates were screaming at the second flour win d.* awl the fire was nearly seizing them at the hack of their b0b.... Haskell managed to giA into the room and pulled out a finale, whose legs were hanging out of window, and her head hanging lack in the apartment, the poor creature being nearly suffocated. The conductor having brought down this person, handed her to the neighle.urs. He ascended twice again, and at the peril of losing his own life he got out of the biasing buiblin;, two persons, Mr. Cole, • brother of the land lord, awl Mr. King, the landlady's brother. It having been rone.ured t h at another man wee in the back room of the avow! door, Conductor Briggs ascended his amape, (twee) his way through the fire in the front room, and having gained the beck became fairly surrounded with fire awl he had the greatest difficulty in getting back to has escepe. la fact the populace cried out to Haskell to get up his ma. pine, and bring out, if possible, his brother conductor, for the flame. were then extending some feet out of the front windows. Briggs, however, had managed to g. t to his escape just as the top bad taken fire. Fortuu.itely both men, although nearly stifled, reached term firme in safety. Upon reaching the bottom of their tames the courageots fellows were loudly cheered by the neighbour.. A reel supply of water having been ob tained, the engine% were set to work, and after a considerable qe tistity of property had Ines destroyed, the fire was got under. Another fire took place in the premises of Mr. R. J.

The prosecutor, however, was not present, and the officer took out a summons to compel his attendance, but he now reported that he hail been unable to serve it, as the prose cutor had left London with his ship, and was not expected to return for some time. Sir K. Carden asked the prisoner how it was that, if he did not steal the watch himself, he had come to know who did steel it ! The prisoner mid he met a boy in the gtreet, who invited him to go into a beershop with him, which he did, without knowing that hiscompamon had done anything wrong, bat that as he was leaving the shop • nom caught him by the collar and charged him with stealing his watch, while the other boy ma off. He added that he didn't know the boy's rianie; but that he should know him again if he m o t hi m , an d would be sure to hand him over to the police.

The defendant then said he was a cowardly , or he would have taken the charge.

(Jew Thowns, a respectable-looking middle-aged net, an engineer in the employ of Messrs. Burgess and Co., manufacturing chemists, Blue Anchor-road, Bermandmy, was brought before Mr. Burcham, charged with stealing two new large brass bearings belonging to the steam engine which he was repairing on their prmises. It appeared from the evidence id Seannell, 177 M, that be saw the prisoner enter a marine store dealer's in Gravel lane with something bulky about him, and he followed him in and saw him put two large brass bearings into the scale. Witness asked him where he got them from, when he at first said that he brought them from Guild ford-street to weigh them, and afterwards he said that he brought them from Mr. Burgess's to weiA them, as he in tended to protect them. Ile then took him into custody, soil since then he had ascertained that the prisoner had been employed in repairing a valuable steam-engine at Messrs. Burgess's, and that the bearings belonged to that. At the time of the robbery Mr. Burgess was in Scotland, and all the property was left in charge of a watchman, who, unfortunately, died during his absence. The deceased's 600 took the father's situation; and while he wee absent at the funeral, the prisoner took the brae, bearings from the counting-house, where they had been put for safety. Mr. Burgess identified the brass bearings as his property, and he was surprised at the prisoner stealing them as he had been twelve yews in his employ and had hitherto bore a good character. In answer to the charge the prisoner said he had no intention of stealing the bearing.; he merely took them to protect them. Eventually he pleaded guilty, and Mr. Burcham sentenced him to sin weeks' bard labour. THAMEg. TIE DISTUIDANCIe A? Wr. GCORGett•IN•THZ-LAI97.

Mr. Joseph Smith, solicitor, of Arbour-street East, Stepney, appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Stoddart, solici tor, of the same street, conducted the defence. Evidence was given by the Rev. Bryan King and others of the fearful disturbance in the church ; and Mr. Baker, an army s urg eon. stated that be saw and heard the defend ant him loudly while the creed was being reed, and ordered him out. The prisoner wax removed by the police, and expressed his sorrow for what he had done. Several witnesses who were called by Mr. Stoddart for the defence, said the prisoner did nothing. There was much discrepancy in their testimony. Mr. 6 l:l i f i ii es tave credit to the defendant's witnesses for a desire to s the truth, but believed they were mistaken. He convict the defendant, bet as he had expressed his sorrow for the offence he should deal with him leniently.

Festal has been elected in tea colleges, ad Omit Caves: in eight. Cussing v. Cyano na.—A correspondent of the Times, calling himself "Precurser," has written as fol lows :—" Your translation of ' cursor' is quite sight, and Mr. Bowyer is quite wrong. ' Curser 'is • good old Bag hell word, and will be found in any good old dictionary. It memo ' a runner.' It does so happen that Mr. Bowyer's turners both run and curse • but that is no reason why we should change our languag e and ostracise • word which ha. the merit of being appropriate in • double sense." THE FATAL. ACCIDENT IN HANOVER-BQUAREL On Saturdat_an ' • was instituted by Mr. Bedford, the coroner for West Middlesex, St. George's Hospital, into the circumstances attending the death of John Brightman, • house painter, who died on Tuesday last from the effect of injuries resulting from the falling of a scaffold erected at No.T2, Hanover-square, on which the deceased was standing. H. Yarnell deposed that he saw the deceased and two other men fall from the scaffoldand amieted in conveying them to the hospital. The scaffold pole which broke was in an hori zontal position, and wan about five inches thick. William Hellican stated that he new the scaffold-pole which had broken lying where it fell ; it appeared to be much dean and seemed as if it had been previously broken or rs and a nail had been driven through the cracked portion to strengthen it. The pole was broken about half-way acmes. Mr. George Harrison, assistant-howee-angeon at&t. Gpeeoorrp s Hospital, stated he new deceased about an hour after his admission into the hospital. He had a scalp wound ewes the right temple into which he could put his Anew and feel the loose portions of bane. A ligature was fastened round a vessel which bad been bleeding. There was also • scalp wound on the posterior part of the heed. The man was unconscious, and remained in that stete for about three hours, when he died. Death re sulted from injury to the brain. J. Molloy, labourer, stated be assisted in the erection of the scaffold. Did not have any instructions given him as to the mode of building it. This was left to his own judgment. Did not know he was going to work on the scaffold himself. The poles and timber used were taken from Mr. Foxley's yard. They were taken indiscriminately. Mr. Polley bad been himself to see them while they were erecting the scaffold, and told than to be very careful. Patrick Moran, the other labourer who assisted in building the scaffold, gave evidence to a similar effect. The pole, through the breakage of which the accident occurred, was then examined by the jury. It was in a very decayed condition, and evidently unfit for the pur pose to which it had been devoted. Mr. Foxley examined, said he was • builder. He had told the men to be careful. Did not know he had such a pole on the premises as the one minuted ; if he had known it he would nut have allowed it to be aged. The pole was quite strong and stout enough if it had been sound. He very much regretted the accident, which hal deprived him of an old and faithful servant. The jury returned a verdict "That the deceased died from the filling of a scaffold in consequence of unsound materiabi having been used.' The coroner strongly censured Mr. Foidey for not having some skilled person to superintend the selection of materials and the erection of the scaffold. FATAL ACCIDENT AT "'Hi SOUTHERN MA IN Deanraos Wous.—On Saturday morning an inquest was held by Mr. C. J. Clutter, coroner for West Kent, at the White Hart, Groveatreet, Deptford, on the body of William Greenall, aged 36, an engineer, belonging to Liver pool, and • married man, who expired from injuries received while engaged at the southern main drainage weeks of the metropolis at St. George's-wharf, near the Ooreaerelid Docks. From the evidence given it appeared that es Tues day afternoon the deceased went into the engine at the above works, when by some means he =l2 footing, and fell a depth of 18 feet, into some water about 3 feet deep. He was unnierliately picked up, and conveyed to his residence in the neighbourhood, no apparent serious injury having then been inflicted. On Wednesdagi g fte: noon he was compelled to keep his bed. a n d D r . J. e was sent for, who, on attending, found him puissless, suf fering from a difeculty of breathing and the gassrel symp toms denoting fatal comequences. Evervthing was Case i done that could be to lave his life, but, after barring eerie hour., death ensued, the ribs of deceased having been jured so as to preen upon the lungs. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death.'. PUBLr9 RAILWAY. —The report of the director; states that the revenue account for the half-year ending the 29th of February last shows a balance of net profits, after defraying working expenses, parish rates, and government duty, of 2,903/. This was an increase on the eor• responding half of the preceding year of 5561. The available balance for interest and dividend amounted to 2,9551., from which was deducted 7251. for interest on debentures, 615/. the dividend on the 5 per cent. per ference shares, and it was proposed to deduct 1,5611. for a dividend on the ordinary shares at the rate of 44 per cent per annum, leaving 53/. to be wkled to the reserve fund, which would then amount to 1,1641. after all the dividends wire paid. The question of amalgamation with the North British Railway company would be fully considered at a special meeting to be held immediately after the ordinary meeting on the 14th instant. The North British Railway miry had increased the terms offered on their part to a erential dividend of 4. per cent. on the °Miner/ stock ; original terms were Si per cent. per annum fo r Litry" yews, and thereafter 4 per cent. per ann um in • 1841). MONEY MARKET.-THIS DAX. Two O'Cwcx. A further decline of per cent. bas taken place to-day in the funds, owing chiefly to the prepara tions for the monthly settlement in Console, which show that the supply of stock is fully equal to the demand. The " continuation" on Console to the 9th of May is per cent., "given." In the share markets, business is limi ted, and little alteration has occurred in prices. British railway stocks, though in a few instances a little more offered, remain remarkably steady. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter were quoted 69fr. 80c., being to I per cent. better than on S►turday. The dividends are payable this (lay at the Bank of England. Consols are officially marked 941 and }, both for money and the account (April 11). The present quo tations are 941 to for money and next Wednesday, and 941 to for the 9th of May.

A meeting of the holders of Central American Bonds is convened by the committee for Thursday next, to receive a proposal from Senor Gutierrez, Minister Plenipotentiary from the Republic of Salvador, for the liquidation of the portion of the debt belonging to that state. The Caledonian Railway traffic return showed last week an increase of 1,2571. The half-yearly meeting of the Sambre and Meuse Railway Company is called for the 26th inst., preparatory to the meeting on the 10th of May at Brussels. This meeting will be made special, to sanction the raising of fresh capital, in order to complete the junction with the Ardennes Railway. The traffic on the 687 miles of the South Austrian line of the Lombardo-Venetian Railway Company for the week ending the 24th March was 28,2511., being 14,3751. lees than in the corresponding week of 1869 on 596 miles, when military movements on a vast scale were in progrees ; and that on the Lombardo-Venetian line 3,8281., showing a decrease of 1,5811. The Paris Omnibus Company have declared a dividend of 81f. for the past year, of which 35f. have already been distributed, being 3f. more than in the previous year. The shares are quoted 900 f. With reference to the proposed changes in the Australian Mail route, the Australian Mail of Satur day has the following : The advice. from the several colonies communicate some important facts bearing upon the proposal put forward on behalf of the Peninsular and Oriental Company for • change in the mail route. The Sydney Chamber of Commerce have declined to recommend any subsidy for a bi-mouthly mail rut Suez, holding that the better mode of proceeding would be to leave the subsidising of the line to the southern cola Dies, while New South Wales united with Queensland and New Zealand in sustaining a postal line rid Panama. This decision appears to be quite m accordance with the opinion of the public. No action has yet been taken by the legisla tures of Victoria in regard to the propositions of the Penin. solar and Oriental Company for a change of the mail route. The Argos declares, however, that the public feeling is strong in favour of the fortnightly line rid Odle, " even though Victoria ahould have to pay the whole colonial sub sidy." Tasmania and South Australia have also pronounced with 0110111,1iBM in favour of the proposal. The position of the silk market is thus noticed by Messrs. Durant and Co. : We have to report a month of heart dragging business in silk—manufacturers finding no satisfactory vent for their goods. In China silk the arrivals have been very large, and the stock shows an increase, nothwithstanding the large de liveries. Prices upon the whole are fairly supported—high east in China, and the continued belief in short shipments, inducing importers generally to abstain from pressing sales. Chinese thrown silk continues utterly neglected. Japan silk, of the finer sizes, continues to fin d eager buyers at full rates, but the coarser sizes do not meet with equal favour. In Bengal silk we have no particular feature—in this class also the finest sizes and best qualities of the November bund, now arriving, have been in demand, but the prices offered have not been sufficiently satisfactory to induce business— medium and common qualities of previousimportations have shared the general dulness. In Italian, Brut& and Persian with reference to the Lyons silk trade Messrs. Milsom and F. Poy report as follows, under date April 6: Oar Condition-house ;reed in March 2,946 bales condi tioned, and 496 bales weighed ; total, 3,441 bales. This amount is slightly superior to that of the premding month, still we cannot report any great improvement in bAsiness, which is suffering from the unfavourable accounts from the United States ; though, on account of the very small stocks of all descriptions of silks, prices remain pretty firm. Orders for the autumn are muc h delayed this lea and, though considerably smaller than was expecteil, sC Z still be sufficient to maintain present rates ; ender these circumstances all parties are acting with great reserve. The Gazette statement of the movement of the precious metals for the week ending Wednesday last gives the following totals, viz. :—lmports of gold, 264,4261. ; exports of gold, 109,1701. ; imports of silver, 582,56/. ; exports of silver, 3,8211. SATOIDAT EVINIVO. The funds to-day were flat, owing to the unfa vourable Bank return, combined with some deli veries of stock, chiefly of New and Reduced Three per Cents., for private transfers, of which this was the first day. Consols have declined per cent. The reduction, however, did not extend to the other departments of the Stock Exchange, which were generally firm. British railway stocks were again decidedly buoyant. There was a good demand for money to-day in ' commercial channels, and in most quarters 41 to 5 percent. is asked on good bills. Six months' paper is placed with difficulty below 6 per cent. At the Bank the amount of business was decidedly below the recent average, yet considerable for a Saturday. I The bulk of the advances made during the shut ting of the transfer books fall repayable at the Bank on Monday (when the payment of the divi dends commences), Tuesday, and Wednesday. The amount is rather large. Consols, which dosed on Thursday at 944 . "sellers," for the 11th of April, opened this morning at 94 to }, and closed at 94/ to 1. For money the lest price was likewise 94, 944 to ; and for the 9th of May, 94 to 4. The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 94j, ; ditto, for amount ( 11 th April) , 944, 944-; Three per Cent.

The IndM Five per Cent. stook of 1859 was firm, at 1044 to, 106 ; and Exchequer Bills at 10a. to 13s. prem. Foreign stocks were steady. The Turkish Loan of 1854 closed at 79 to r t that of 1858 at 64 to 62, after being marked 62 ; and Mexican Bonds at 22 to Buenos Ayres erred Bonds remain firm.
