AUG. 14. ACCIIJENT,S* AND OFF A'G'ES. BURNING OF THE PARK RAILING. We are sorry. to state, that at ten o'clock on. Friday night a mob ronected in the Green Park, composed, perhaps of all the disor derly characters in London. Acting in the spirit of mischief, they pulled down the lence outside the Temple inclosure, and , mule a Nwfire. In consequence of the immense number of perlions leered, the seltrics found it impossible to oppose their depredatitms . It was not deemed necessary to resort to a proper force in order. to. compel them to desist, as in all probability many: with their liVes would have , paid for -their misconduct, had they been treated -or: ricters. Finding a forbearance, they went on with impunity, and piled up the railings until a volume of flame arose, which alarmed the metropolis at its eastern extremity. Many supposed a number of houses were on fire, and the engines drove through the Pal k. under a belief that St James's Palace was in-flames. The multi tude, with a disregard.of propriety, proceedtd mita they had hunt nearly all the fences ; sentry boxes and branches of trees were thrown into the flames, and considerable apprehensions were enter tained for the fate of the Temple, which was menaced, with the other range of building bearing the name of the Military Officers, The Temple remained safe, surrounded by sentinels, and the mis chief dope does not extend beyond the destruction of the timber which formed the railway. The mob left the Park when daylight appeared. Several are in custody. A melancholy accident happened on Saturday se'nnight at Yule, about seven miles cast of Plymouth harbour. In a heavy squal of wind, three men were upset in a small•boat and drowned. •A boat with five men put ot1•to their assistance, which also upset, and two out of the five were drowned.

'Medical aid was procured, and he' now lies in a lair way of recovery. Jealousy is stated to have been the cause. Wednesday au inquisition was taken by the Coroner for the town of Cambridge ' on a view of the body of Jane Bays, aged 10, 'daugh ter of Mr. 'Thomas Bays, of Trinity- street, who died on Tuesday afternoon, at four o'clock, in consequence of having swallowed in the morning, a tea,spootitid of curios:ivy swblimate, dissolved in water.
