JAMES ROBINSON, THE CELEBRATED DENTIST. The medical profession, especially that section practising dental surgery, and in deed the public generally, to whom he was deservedly well known as the founder of the National Dental Hospital, will regret to hear that this truly estimable gentleman expired on Tuesday morning, at his country residence, Kenton, near Harrow. On Sunday week, about five o'clock, whilst walking in his garden, a branch or shrub attracted his attention, and taking up a knife to cut it off, the instrument slipped and penetrated his thigh. Ho did not bleed at the moment, but when put to bed he lost a large quantity of blood ; and notwithstanding he was immediately visited by and received the un remitting attention of his old and attached friends, Messrs. T. Carr Jackson, Harris, and Wotton, who eat up with him, and subsequently of Dr. Bridgwater and Mr. Hancock, he never rallied from the severe shock he had received, but quietly expired on the morning of the 4th inst. Mr. Robinson was well known as a most accomplished dentist, and his name is intimately connected with the early history of anesthetic agents, he having been the first to employ them in this country in dentistry. He was the author of one of the best works on dental surgery, and at the time of his death was engaged in the preparation of a much more elaborate work on the same subject, most ex pensively illustrated ; he was also the author of some valuable contributions to the pages of the London Dental Review and American journals; from the latter country be received the honorary degree of doctor in dental surgrY - He leaves a widow and a large circle of friends to deplore his loss. An inquest was held on Saturday, and a verdic t of Accidental Death returned. stool stock 100 100 100 100 all 100 I 15 all 100 FOREIGN RAILWAYS 10 Algerian .....

The French markets have rather fluctuated of late. Ad vices from New York state both wheat and flour were rather drooping in price. Very moderate supplies of English produce were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad were 8,235 quarters of wheat; 14,239 barley; 1,535 oats; 2,000 beans ; 433 tares ; 6,042 linseed ; 896 rapeseed ; 250 maize; 170 sundry seeds; 190 sacks and 29,056 barrels of flour. Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of wheat from Essex were decidedly small, but there was a fair, though by no means extensive, show of samples from Kent. The general condition of the supply was tolerably good. For both red and white qualities the demand was in a sluggish state, nevertheless, at the close of business a fair clearance had been effected, and the currencies, compared with this day se'nnight, exhibited no quotable change. There was a fair show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands, ex granary. All good and prime descriptions changed hands steadily, at full prices; but inferior sorts met a slow market, yet the quotations were supported. In floating cargoes of grain a moderate business was transacted, at stationary prices. Malting barley was in limited supply and steady request, at full currencies. The show of grinding and distilling sorts was only moderate, but their being a considerable quantity of foreign barley on offer, the trade for them ruled heavy, at about previous rates. The malt trade was dull, at late quotations. The supply of oats, both English and foreign, was very moderate, yet the demand for all descriptions ruled inactive, at last Monday's currency. Beans—the show of which was moderately extensive—. moved off heavily, at the late decline in their value. As regards prices, peas were without change from Mon day last; and no improvement was observed in the inquiry for them, notwithstanding that the supply on offer was somewhat restricted. In all kinds of flour sales progressed slowly, at about the quotations of this day se'nnight. CURRENCY PER IMPERYAL MEASURE.

The show of foreign stock here to. day was moderate, bu, the sheep came to hand in prime condition. Although the arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own griming districts were by no means extensive, the demand for all breeds ruled extremely heavy, at a decline in the quotations of quite 2d per 81bs. The general top figure for beef did not exceed 4s 4d per 81bs. With very few excep tions, the quality of the stock was unusually good, but the depressed state of the dead markets had considerable influ ence upon this trade. Frotii Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received 1850 Scots, shorthorns, and crosses; from other parts of England, 860 various breeds ; from Scotland, 450 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 100 oxen and heifers. Notwithstanding that the supply of sheep was only mo derate as to number, the mutton trade was very inactive, and prices gave way 2d per 81bs. The best Downs, in the wool, sold at 6s 4d ; out of the wool, at 4s 8d per Sibs. The general weight and condition of the sheep were good. Lambs, the supply of which was seasonably extensive, were in fair demand, at 7s 4d per Blbs. They still continue to arrive in good condition. About 60 reached us from the Isle of Wight. Calves were in fair supply and heavy request, at a de cline in the quotations, compared with Monday last, of 10d per Sibs. The top figure was 58 per 81bs.

USEFUL CAUTION. —Two females, named Mary Ann Jones and Ellen Johnson, the latter of whom was stated by Mr. Lewis, jun., who appeared for both prisoners, to be hourly expecting her accouchement, were charged by Charles Clay, a constable, with attempting to pick pockets in Oxford-street. The constable proved seeing Jones make three attempts on Saturday afternoon, about five o'clock—the first on an old lady standing at Mr. Gardner's, corner of Princes street, and who had at the time a gold chain and a pair of spectacles in her pocket and the last on a lady looking at a rifle volunteer band passing. The prisoner Jones gave a false address, but Johnson said she lived at Orchard Cot tages, Kingsland. Sergeant Joy, 9 C, said he knew Jones, and believed if she was remanded that he should be able to prove three convictiens against her. Mr. Lewis having addressed the magistrate on the pri soner's behalf, Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should commit Jones for three months, and as there was a doubt about Johnson, and tak ing her condition into consideration, he should discharge her. A CASE FOR THE BRAZILIAN MINISTRY.—CamiIIa Rosa, 20 years of age, a native of Rio Janeiro, was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged by Dickens, of the C divi sion, with annoying gentlemen in Regent-street. The constable said the prisoner, whom he knew as an unfortunate, was annoying gentlemen, and he took her into custody. Mr. Albert, the interpreter at the court, said the young woman could not speak a word of English, but she wanted to say something to his worship. The young woman, through Mr. Albert, said she was a native of Rio J aneiro, and went from that place to France, from whence she was brought by a Madame Colbert, of George-street, Portman-square, who took all the money she earned by a life of prostitution. She was sincerely tired of such an infamous life, and wished his worship to assist in delivering her from a life of iniquity and misery. Her friends were in a good condition, and she wanted to go back to them. Mr. Tyrwhitt said inquiries should be made at the Bra zilian Embassy, 7, Cavendish-square, to see what could be done for her. Mr. Albert said be would take any trouble, and go any where with her so as to get her home again. Mr. Tyrwhitt said, he should discharge her, but she could wait and see what could be done.

A very destructive fire broke out about 2 o'clock yesterday morning, on the premises of Messrs. H. T. Burt and Co., steam saw mill proprietors and timber merchants, known as Durrant's wharf, Trinity - street, Itotherhithe. The buildings covered several acres of ground. It consisted of boiler houses, steam sawing mills, storehouses, and work shops, and the wharf was 'covered with piles of timber, and several thousand railway sleepers. The discovery was made by a police constable of the M division, who in passing along his beat noticed black smoke rising from stacks of railway sleepers standing on the land side of the wharf. The officer at once gave the alarm, and aroused the residents of the surrounding houses. Before, however, he had time to send for the engines, immense sheets of flame rose high into the air, and were attacking the premises belonging to Messrs. Courage and Co., but sub-let to several poor families, none of whom were insured, They rushed out into the open street without waiting to dress, bringing with them their children, and anything of a portable cbaraeter they could lay hold of. The flames next seized upon two skittle-grounds belonging to Mr. Rooke, the pro prietor of the India Arms Tavern, No. 44, in Trinity street. The flames were then on the point of en circling the rope factory belonging to Mr. Bennett, whose premises extend over a quarter of a mile in length. To stop the ravages of the fire in this direction, however, strong means were at once adopted, and by cutting away 240 feet of the covered rope walks and spinning houses the fire was happily stopped. The main body of fire, however, continued its ravages, and in a very brief period after the discovery about 5,000 of the railway sleepers presented such a blaze as is seldom wit nessed, the light being so great that St. Paul's Cathedral, the Crystal Palace., at Sydenham, and other lofty buildings were brilliantly lighted up. This caused a general turn out of the engines. Some of the City and West-end engines were taken along the Middlesex side off` the Thames, and having pro ceeded as far as the Thames Tunnel, the firemen were mortified by finding that the fire was on the opposite side of the water, and they had to turn back again in order to get over London-bridge. This of course consumed considerable time, but it is questionable if the land engines had reached the place sooner, owing to the time lost before water could be obtained from the mains, whether they would have been able to do much good. Captain Shaw, the superintendent of the fire engine estab lishment, Mr. Henderson, the chief officer of the B district, and a powerful body of engineers and fire men were, considering the distance from town,very soon in attendance with numerous engines, includ ing one belonging to the Commercial Dock Com- pang, the two large steam river floats, the land steam engine by Shand and Mason, and numerous laud engines. Immense lengths of hose were stretched out from the two floats and conveyed into the burning wharf, and some thousand tons of water were thrown on the flames. As soon as water could be got from the plugs in the neighbourhood the land steamer and other engines were called into operation. The first thing sought to be accom plished was, if possible, to cut off the flames in the direction of the Trinity school house, the Dyers' Arms Tavern, and the other buildings. Fortunately, as far as this went, the labours of the firemen were to some extent crowned with success, but not the least impression could for some hours be made upon the flames rising from the timber on the wharf. It was not till a late hour in the day that the fire was extinguished. The damage done is thus officially ;turned by Capt;in Shaw to the various insurance companies interested in the loss : —" Sunday, March 9th, 1862, 2 o'clock a.m.—A fire broke out in the premisesof Mr. H. P. Burt and Co., called Durrant's wharf, T r inity-street, Rother hithe. The premises were used as steam saw mills and timber merchants' stores and yards. The cause of fire unknown. The fire was extinguished by Bremen with four engines of D, two of B, one of C, ,hree of A, the two river floats, and the land steamer of the brigade, and one from the Commercial Docks. About 5,000 railway sleepers are destroyed. The buildings and their consents were insured in the Atlas, the Phoenix, the Leeds and Yorkshire, and other fire-offices. The fire was on the land side of the wharf. No. 43, ditto, belonging to Messrs. Courage and Co., but let out in tenements. Pre mises and contents very considerably damaged by fire and breakage.

The Royal Assent Was given by commission to the Con solidated Fund Bill. VV The Royal Commissioners Were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Cranworth, and Earl St. Germans. SHOOTING LICENCES. The Earl of MALMESBURY said on Thursday next he should call the attention of the house to a circular which had been sent round to all those who held shooting licenses, and which was said to have the approval of the Chief Commissioners of Woods and Forests. THE PRESS IN PIEDMONT. The Marquis of NORM ANBY said he was compelled to postpone the motion which stood on the paper for Friday until Monday next, owing to the non-arrival of certain in formation which he had expected. THE REVISED CODE. The Earl of DERBY presented petitions against the Revised Code. THE SOUTHERN BLOCKADE. _ _ _ Lord STIIATHEDEKrOLtOcaII the attention of the house to the blockade of the ports of the Confederate States of America, and to move for copies of any correspondence on the subject subsequent to the papers already presented to the house. The noble lord commenced by remarking upon the importance of the sub ject, especially to the trading and mercantile community. He considered the blockade as it existed merely an impedi ment to trade, because it seemed totally inadequate for the purpose for which it was intended. To be of any service a blockade ought to be most rigorously kept by the parties instituting it, and yet although the Federal States had resorted to the choking up of Charleston harbour all was of no avail. In order to show the feeling of the mer cantile community on the subject, insurances could readily be effected on vessels trading between Liverpool and Charleston at 15 per cent., that would not be the case if the blockade was sonsidered effective. Instead of 15, 20 per cent. was the ordinary rate of in surance where a blockade was rigorously carried out and he could not help thinking that the position of affairs at the present moment was such that something of a defi nite nature ought at once to be adopted. The noble lord then proceeded to read several extracts from the de spatches written by Consul Banks. {LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—THIS EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. NEW MEMBER. Mr. H. BUTLER JOHNSTONE took the oaths and his seat for Canterbury. PRIVATE BUSINESS.

Some petitions were presented in favour of a reduction of the duty on fire insurances, against the modified revised code. LANDED ESTATES COURT (DUBLIN). On the motion of Sir E. GROGAN, the following return was ordered :—Copy of any correspondence between the Chief or Under Secretary for Ireland and the Board of Works, since the removal of the Landed Estates Court to the Four Courts, Dublin, in 1860, with reference to an additional court, or further accommodation for the judges and officers of the Landed Estates Court. DISTRESS IN THE WEST OF IRELAND. Mr. GREGORY asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether any report had been presented to him by the Poor Law Inspector accompanying the steamer that had been sent to the west coast of Ireland to relieve distress in that district ; and whether he would lay the report before the house. Also, and whether relief had been afforded, of what character, and to what extent? Sir IL PEEL said chat the Government was quite ready to lay the report in question before the house. Some relief had been afforded to the poor classes in Ireland in the dis trict to which the hen. member referred, and means had been adopted to mitigate the distress in that locality. ORDER FOR SHOOTING PRISONERS IN ITALY. Mr. 'ISRAELI asked the Prime Minister whether the order which was alleged to have issued from the Executive of the Neapolitan district was correct, namely, as related to the shootinc , of women, which was repudiated by the Government of Turin. Lord PALMERSTON said that he had made inquiry at; the Foreign Office as to whether any communication had been received on the subject to which the hon. member re fel red. The Government had received no information re lative to the proclamation alluded to, but they must neces sarily participate in the disgust which must be felt in regard Ito such a brutal proclamation. (Hear, hear.) SANDHURST COLLEGE. On bringing up the report of supply, Sir G. C. LEWIS, in reply to questions, said that he would ask the house to reconsider the decision they had com e to in reference to the vote for Sandhurst College. That vote amounted to .tlO,OOO ; but if it were not granted, it would bring the country in an expense of £12,000 annu ally without any return whatever, He concluded by mov ing that the vote for civil privileges, including the vc'te for Sandhurst College, should be recommitted. DEPOTS IN INDIA. Mr. S. ESTCObRT complained of the statement which had been made by the Government in reference to this subject the other evating, Sir C, WOOD said that the estimate in regard to the vote for the Indian service would . . l . l e the same as last year, and repeated the explanation which he 12ad given on a plevious evening in reference to the vote in question. t-ANDHURST COLLEGEo Mr. SELWYN said that he felt bound to draw the at tention of the house to what he considered a breach of faith on the part of Government in respect to Sa.ndirarst College, and entered into certain details in support of hil l position. Sir U. C. LEWIS said he trusted that the house wouldl not come to a conclusion on this particular subject until they had heard from him the explanation which he pro posed shortly to submit to hon. members. After some remarks from hon. members, Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government was en ti re ly free from any reproach in rega rd They had entered into a contract, and bound t 9 carry to this matter. out the terms of that contract. After some further discussiosn, the house divided on tho question that the vote for Sandhurst College should be com mitted on Thursday next. For the recommittal Against Majority .. —3B [LEFT SITTING.] SUGAR AND MOLASSES.—A return shows that for the year ending Sept. 30, 1861, there were used in the brewing of beer 83,618 cwt. sugar; and in the distillation of spirits, 6,906 cwt. sugar and 227,619 cwt. molasses. MALT BONDED.---A return to the House of Com— mons shows that in the year ending the 30th Sept., 1861, the number of bushels of malt made in bond for distillation was 3,000,449; made in bond for exportation, 214,438; allowed a drawback of duty for exportion, 147,110. There is no drawback of duty allowed on malt used fer distil- lation. FATAL olliP witEcK.—On Friday morni ng th e b r i g Harmony, Cap tain Key, was wrecked off the port of Har rington,on t h e Cumberland coast, and a ll h ands were lost.. The H ar mony left Harrington on Thursday night with a cargo o f coals for Ireland, with the following crew on board —T captain, John Key ; the ma t e , Wi lliam Garret ; two,scam h e e n named Hetherington and Kennish ; and two ap prentices. The night was wild, snow and rain driving from S.S.W. Next morning the brig was found strandcc on the rocks about a mile from Harrizigton. How she came there must for ever be a matter of speculation, as none of the crew were left to tell the tale. It is probable that either the cap tain had kept too closely in to the shore, and thus struck accidentally, or that the vessel had sprung a leak and was purposely stranded to save the lives of the crew.
