THE SUN, LONDON, TILES DAY EVENING, JULY 14, 18-16, because the tenant could not be assured that he should enjoy an adequate return for the capital expended, either in the length and certainty of his tenure, or in the obtaining a fair compensation for his outlay and labour on quitting his farm. We ex pressed our regret that it was not retrospective in its nature, and that it allowed compensation only for im provements hereafter to be eff,:eted, hut that no allow ance was to be made for the improvementsof a similar nature, which had already taken place ; we do not conceive that there would be any extraordinary diffi culty in estimating the value of such improvements, the time when they were made, and the allowance to which the tenant should he entitled therefore—the same machinery which is adopted for the other purposes mentioned in the Bill would be amply sufficient for that also. Had such a law been in operation, we should have been spared the contemplation of the painful scene which recently took place at Bird Hill, in the county of Tipperary, where a tenant, who had expended his entire capital in erecting a dwelling-house and other buildings, to the amount of over 1,500/.,was turned, with his family, on the wide world, for an arrear of rent amounting to not more than one-sixth of the sum ex pended by him within a few short years, and which arrear may be recovered from him by an action for mesne rates, if he should have enough left to gratify the cupidity of his landlord ; but if the mea sure should not be extended during the present ses sion, at least let it be carried into effect as it now stands, and let the earliest and most serious considera tion of the Government be devoted to the subject, cn which, of all others, the happiness and prosperity if our sister kingdom is so dependent. The cultivation of the waste lands—the providing of abundant em ployment for the surplus population by means thereof —the creation of a sturdy and independent yeernanry on the lands so reclaimed—the extension of the Ulster tenant right, which has been found to act so well in such parts of the country as it is in operation, throughout the entire kingdom—are all of the most serious importance, and afford a wide field for the labours of the philanthropist and the statesman. Wt cannot hope for an immediate settlement of these questions, but we trust that before the next session the Government intentions with respect thereto wil be fully matured and laid before the public for theil approval. _ Accounts from Basle of the 10th state, that Austria was concentrating troops on the frontiers of Switzer land, in order to watch the progress of events.

The accident on the Great Northern Riiiway stil continues to be the chief topic of comment in them The Moniteur makes the following official announce• ment : " We are happy to be able to announce that the aide-de camp of General Oudinot, whom we had counted among the number of victims of the deplorable accident of which the Northern Railway has been the theatre, has not sunk under his wounds. There are, on the contrary, great hopes of his recovery. Thus, the number of persons killed, includine the two conducteurs, amount to 14. The latest accounts, brought on Saturday evening by M. Frissard, divisionary inspector, who visited the scene by order of the Minister of Public Weeks, enable us to affirm that we shall not have to announce and deplore any further deaths." Notwithstanding this announcement, however, the general belief in Paris was, that upwards of fifty per sons bad perished. The conducteur bourgeois states that there were thirty-five persons in the waggot. which was overturned into the morass. The accident is said to have been occasioned by the engineer suddenly shutting off the steam and stopping the engine, when the impetus of the carriages behind forced the middle carriages ofi the rails. The official report of M. FRISSARD com pletely confirms the report addressed to the Company by the Sub-Inspector. The KING of the FRENCH, on hearing of the accident, immediately dispatched his aide-de-camp, General HUMIGNY, to the spot. The Tapers and the Tadpoles of the French Oppo sition are sadly in want of a " good cry" on which to go to the people at the next election. The " Pritchard indemnity" cry is felt to be somewhat stale, yet it is the best they have; so that there car, be little doubt but that the Ministry will hays as large a majority in the next Chamber as they had in the late one : The trial of Dr. CONNEAU and CHARLES TUELIN, for aiding and abetting in the escape of Prince Louis NAPOLEON ; and of M. DEMARLE, commandant of the fortress of Ham, and two keepers, for neglect of duty ; has just taken place before the Correctional Tribunal of Peronne. The proceedings lasted three days. The only evidence that presents the slightest interest is the following " Dr. Conneau, one of the prisoners, deposed that he had been connected with the family of Prince Louis Napoleon since 1820, having been for about nine months secretary to his father. He afterwards went to Florence and Rome, and finished his medical studies there. He practised at lome for three years, and was at last obliged to quit that city, for having, in 1830, given an asylum to two of 'lie friends, when sought fur by the police; and fur having, in 1831, dressed the wound of another friend, who had been hurt in a disturbance at Rome. Witness after that joined the Prince at .Aremberg, and remained there until the death of Queen Hortense, wbo iu dying laid an injunction on him to remain always with her son. When the Prince was ordered to be coafined at Ham, witness obtained permission to remain with him, and was allowed to go out and in as he pleased. Witness considered. himself to have been kindly treated by the Government in being thus permitted to remain with the Prince on such favourable conditions, and looked on himself as under obliga tions to it, but not to such an extent as to be obliged to betray to it the intentions of the Prince. In October last, M. Poggieli, a lawyer, came from Florence, with letters from M.M. Montalivet, Decazes, and Mole, praying them to exert themselves to obtain the Prince's pardon, but their endea vours were without result. In November the Prince wrote to the Minister of the Interior to obtain a temporary liberty to see his father, but his proposition was not accepted. He also wrote to the King, which letter was published in the journals. In the month of May the Prince, finding all his efforts of no avail, determined to attempt an escape. The Prince's health was at this time indifferent, and witness had applied for the favour of having him removed to some mineral bathing place. This course had been pre scribed by Drs.llarjolin, Larrey, and Lacroix. This ap piication was also replied to in the negative.. He learned, also, at the same time, from Loid Londonderry, wh o had exerted himself to procure his liberation, that he saw no hope of succeeding. The Prince determined to avail himself of the occasion of workmen being in the fortress to attempt his evasion. He accordingly provided the clothes in which he afterwards escaped, and watched his opportunity. On May 25th. the Prince disguised himself about half-past six, cut off his moustaches, dyed his whiskers black, and put on a black wig. Thelin gave a glass of brandy to one of the workmen, and witness watched who passed in the corridor. The Prince then left the room, and witness did not see him afterwards. Witness desired, if possible, to conceal the better b sndladtuthrbat that, if the In escape for 24 hours, and for that purpose informed the keeper when he called that the Prince wa s ill. Wh en t h e commandant called, about nine o'clock, witness, w h o was on the watch, atter came f t oier r , e a 3 r s d ing to , intewetw, not e hi and to Prince, &she was ill. The commandant withdrew, and called again at half-past twelve. Witness told him that the Pelf ce slept, and the oth er went away, th oug h reluctantly, pi; the' evening he called again, and insisted on seeing the Prince, and witness took him into the i nner room . the Prince's bed chamber. Witness bad placed a figure in the bed, and going up to it, spoke as if to the Prince; receiving, of course, no answer. He came back to the commandant, and made a sign to him that the patient was asleep. The commandant s aid, He cannot remain all day asleep. I shall wait until he wakes.' He then sat down, looking at thi bed, and a little after exclaimed, Ah! he is about to awake; he stirs!' The commandant then listened, and not hearing any breath ing, he went over to the bed, and discovered the deceit. He at once turned toward witness, and said, 'The Prince is gone! At what o'clock ?' Witness replied, 'At seven this morning.' Who was on guard ?' Witness replied, I do not know. And nothing more passed between them. _ _ Commandant liemule declared that he had been at first deceived by the assertion of Dr. Conneau that the Prince was ill, and peat by the cloclitativit 91 the tniTitht appointed to make up the rooms in the Prince's apartment, who said to him—'The Prince is nothing better, he is in the sitting room.' Witness thought the man had just seen him. It was only towards evening, when Thelin did not return, that he began to suspect that all was not right. Witness then called the man just alluded to, and on interrogating him, finding that he had not seen the Prince since the morn ing, he determined to go again to the Prince's room. He then discovered the evasion. 11' itness, in the course of his interrogatory, declared that he believed the keepers to be perfectly free from all knowledge or participation in what had taken place. " The Court, after hearing evidence for the several pri soners, condemned Dr. Conneau to three months' imprison ment, and acquitted all the rest. " Thelin, the Prince's valet-de-chamhre, being absent, was condemned, by default, to six months' imprisonment. Count MONTHOLON was set at liberty on the 10th instant by a Royal order.

ARRIVAL THE CALEDONIA. EXPRESS FRO3I LIVERPOOL, (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY MORNING, Six O'CLOCK. The British and North American Royal Mail steam .hip, Captain Lou, arrives here last night, about half past eleven o'clock. She sailed from Boston on the Ist inst., and Halifax on the 3d, making the passage, in cluding her call and stay at Halifax, in about twelve days and a half. The Caledonia had 102 passengers aid the semi-monthly mails from Canada and the United States. The Britannia arrived at Halifax on the 2d inst. 3y this arrival we have received New York papers )f the 30th ult., being five days later than those brought ,ver by the Great Western. We have also received gew Orleans, Charleston, Philadelphia, Washington, Ind Boston papers to the latest dates, as well as files from several parts of Canada, and other ports of the British American provinces. The news in the United States papers, although it cannot be styled important, is on the whole of an interesting character, having spe °dal reference to the " American tariff," the Mexican war, affairs in Mexico, business prospects, &c. With regard to the tariff, we are informed by the papers just come to hand that the debate thereon was to be ended on the 2d inst. It seems that the fate of that avasure is universally anticipated, as the public has made up its mind to reduce the tariff In the event of the House acceding to the "free trade " views of Mr. Secretary Walker, it is expected that Mr. Webster will propose a compromise in the Senate, and that his plan will finally pass both Houses of Congress without any serious or determined opposition. There is not any news of a definite character from the =eat of War. Advices have been received from Matam ores tp to the 12th ult. In our summary of the news by the Great Western, we mentioned that General Taylor was on his way to Reinoso, in Now Leon. The ad vices come to hand by the Caledonia infirm us that the inhabitants of that town had surrendered without resistance, and .that the authorities of Camargo had sent a deputation to General Taylor, offering him full possession of that place. The facts have been blaz ined forth in all the New York papers with an air of importance quite beyond .heir merits. To talk and write of such brilliant achievements" as have been performed by the " army of occupation" is too bad. Paredes was collecting his forces at a mountain pass near Monterey, where, if anywhere, he will interrupt the march of the United States army. The western expedition into New Mexico was expected to cake up its march from the Missouri between the 15th and 20th of June. Some of the leading New York iournals appear tired of the war, and would gladly have it ended. The United States Go vernment are ready to receive any overtures that may be made by Mexico for arranging their dif rereaces by other means, instead of murderous swords and bayonets, and the destructive volleys of great and Mil all guns; notwithstanding the American Govern ment are active and energetic in their preparations for prosecuting the war, should it be necessary to do ,o. Arms and ammunition, with a number of artille rymen, had been dispatched to the Pacific, and would be stationed either at Monterey or the Bay of San Francisco. It was reported both at Washington and New York, previous to the sailing of the Caledonia, that Mr. Ml'Duff►e, the newly-appointed Chairman of the C9mmittee on Foreign Affairs, was preparing the basis ,)f an arrangement for the adjustment of the difficulties with Mexico, and it was confidently expected that he would submit his plan to the President and the Senate before July 4. The news from Mexico extend to the commencement f June. It was thought Paredes would have 16,000 men in the field against the forces of General Taylor. He vas to take the command in person. General Mejja has superseded Arista. General Alvarez has possession of the city of Acapulca, on the Pacific, where he has raised the standard of "Federation," within 300 miles of the capital. Yucutan has formally declared its independ ,nce under President Barbachano. Tampico. has de- Hared in favour of the federative principle but is divided on the question of the Presidency, General Anastasio Parrodi being in favour of Santa Anna. The :erthern departments of Tamaulipas, Chihuahua, and Zacetecas, and wo believe New Leon, Coahuila, San Louis Potosi, New Mexico, Santa Fe, Sonora and Cali ,'ernia, or the whole of Mexico above the 24th parallel of iorth latitude, propose to organize a separate re oublic, under the protection of the American army ercparatery to annexation to the United States Yucutan also desires to come into the confederacy if sovereign and independent States. The most ex traordinary e nthusiasm seems to prevail among a large part of the Mexican people, the Yucatecos particularly, in favour of annexation. It is remarkable that people, elho have had so little intercourse with the Northern Republic,—who have been, as it were, shut out from the Americans, should thus voluntarily seek admission to the great confederacy. It is an act of homage to the federative principle of Government, which ought to make a lasting impression upon all civilised nations. Nor is it less remarkable than the views lately broached in the British Parliament by Lord Bentinck, who proposed to amend the British constitution, by incorporating the colonies as integral portions of the empire, or as states having their own domestic legislatures, establishing a federative monarchy to which neighbouring commonwealths and nations would naturally annex themselves. Thus the superior races on the Eastern Hemisphere and their descendants on the Western might become the conservators of peace and good government throughout the world. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton-market at Liverpool yesterday was steady. Sales, 6,000 bales, 500 being for export and 1,500 on specu tion. The finer descriptions were scarcest. Shares were ' • rather drooping. Perhaps no visit made by Ibrahim Pacha will tend more to advance the mercantile intercourse between this country and Egypt than that of Saturday, when not only the Iloyal , Exchange, but Lloyd's Coffee and thelerwriting-house were honoured by the presence of the intelligent individual just named. Mr. G. R. Robinson, the Chairman of Lloyd's, had, through the inter preter of the Pacha, very many questions put to him respecting the mode in which the business of this vast establishment was conducted, and we are told that the Egyptian Prince was astonished at the ready manner in which lints of from 1,0001. to 5,000/. or more were taken upon a sea risk. From what fell from the Paths, there is no doubt but that vast improvements are in tended in conducting the Custom-house arrangements of the ports of Egypt, and also that as far as possible every en couren,,ernent will be given to promote the commerce between the two countries. There has been pretty general satisfaction expressed at the course which Lord John Russell has announced it as being his intention to pursue upon the subject of the sugar duties, as by providing for a short continuance of the present duty, and yet announcing his plan for the future, the injurious consequence of a sudden el tinge will be averted, and at the same time, uncertainty will be remove , '. It appears from au official return, that the number of ships employed in the timber trade with the North Ameri can colonies, was, in 1841, 1,643, of 681,147 tons, and etn pl,Niog 22,834 men. In 1845, the numbers wele 2,086 ships, 771,370 tons, and `29,191 men. This shows therefore a grati fying increas. The progress of fiscal reform has necessitated the production of another "Customs Book of Rates," which from its extremely compact size, and, above all its correctness, when so many loosely collated tables are being brought out, will be parti cularly acceptable to those engaged in mercantile pursuits. Mr. Hume, in a communication upon the !subject of the tariff a year or two ago, very appropriately remarked, that our tariff had indeed been brought into a small compass, but that he expected to see it half the size yet. How com pletely verified are that gentleman's opinions, let any one look at the last tables, and judge for himself. The English Securities have been quiet again to day, and a trifle in favour of buyers, the Ac.- count to be settled next Friday being the main influencing cause..

Fortunately, however, it retained its horizontal position for a minute before it fell with another crash, over the side of the vessel. The scene consequent upon the first crash was truly frightful; men, women, and children rushed, amidst the most fiightful screams, to either end of the vessel, while numbers were knocked down by the first rush. The chimney hanging over and threatenirg them with instant death—the darkness of the night added not a little to the terrors of the scene. A few ladies fainted, and others had their dresses somewhat tarnished by the soot and smoke, which we are happy to say constituted the result of an accident which threatened 'wild consequences. The acci dent arose from the hinges of the chimney g i ving way. COMMERCIAL VALUE OF INSECTS.— he imp mtance of insects, cornittercially speaking, is scarcely ever thought of.

Already has the new Administration commenced its Parliamentary labours ; the first chapter of the Ministerial catechism in the Commons was perused overnight, and the answers of the Prime Minister and his associates was (considering the uproar of curiosity which prevailed among their inquirers), to all intents and purposes, satisfactory. It would be the very acme of absurdity to anticipate any decisive movements on the mere inauguration of a new Cabinet, and hence no rational observer will have experienced anything like disappointment at the proceedings of yesterday evening. An immediate introduction of reformatory measures, before the excitement conse quent upon their nomination to office, or an explicit revelation of their intentions, would augur but little for the wisdom or the precision of the Ministry, when it is remembered that their Parliamentary numbers are, up to the present moment, incomplete. The public is, therefore, abandoned to the same uncertainty with reference to the course which Lord J. RUSSELL and his'adherents will determine, or have determined, upon following about the various important questions to be submitted to the decision of Parliament. Nesarthe less, for the reasons which we have already intimated, we consider this apparent hesitation of the Ministry to be a conspicuous evidence of their sagacity and forethought. Although their cmcial entrance into the Lower House was almost entirely remark able for the torrent of inquiries with which they were instantly greeted, and for the adroit evasion of those inquiries by themselves, that even ing's performance of our legislators was not wholly destitute of interest. Although the lips of the Cabinet Councillors are virtually sealed for the nonce, and the nature of their forthcoming announcements as dubious as heretofore, we can, notwithstan ling, obtain a glimpse of the futurity which awaits the present Government from the circumstances atten dant upon their first occupation of the Ministerial benches. Those circumstances are significant enough of the popularity of Lord Joie` RUSSELL'S Adminis tration and of the activity which has characterised the preliminary movements of its members—no less than eleven of the newly-elected Ministers simultaneously returned to Parliament as the representatives of their several constituencies. And this fact necessarily in spires us with sentiments of gratification and hopeful ness, since, from the recent issuing of the writs for those different elections, from the scattered position of the boroughs and counties, and their distance from the seat of government, eleven new Members, all without exception of the most liberal principles, are in finitely mere than could have been anticipated eight months ago. Nor is the mere coincidence of their unanimous return by their electors the only propi tious fact among those circumstances; on the con trary, there is one of a still more encouraging cha racter, namely, the enthusiasm which has been testi fied in those different borough and county elections in favour, not so much of the candidates, as of the noble and enlarging principles of which they were the ex ponents and the advocates. The Premier, Lord JOHN RUSSELL, was proclaimed the representative of the citizens of London by acclamation. Sir GEORGE GREY, the Home Secretary, was returned by the enfran chised people of Devonport with similar unanimity and similar expressions of satisfaction. Colonel Fox, the Surveyor of the Ordnance,was declared by the returning officer to be duly elected as the representative of the Tower Hamlets, notwithstanding a feeble and blunder ing effort to advance an opposing candidate. Sir JOHN CAM HormousE, President of the Board of Control, was acknowledged to be the recipient of the suffrages of Nottingham, in the teeth of an earnest and pertinacious opposition. Lord PALMERSTON, the Foreign Secretary, was returned for Tiverton with out a dissentient voice. Mr. JERVIS, the Attorney. General, in like manner, has, so to speak, received his credentials from the electors of Chester. Mr. LABOUCHERE, Secretary for Ireland, with the universal applause of his constitu ency, was pronounced to be the representative of Taunton. Admiral DUNDAS, one of the Lords of the Admiralty, was speedily reinstated in his dignity as Member for Greenwich, without even a hint at oppo sition. Mr. C. WOOD, Chancellor of the Exchequer, after the mere phantom of an antagonist had been put in nomination at Halifax was declared to be the successful candidate for that borough. Lord MARCUS HILL, Comptroller of the Household, obtained, if possible, a more undoubted welcome at Evesham, and the Hon. Captain BERKELEY, another of the Lords of the Admiralty, as the phrase goes, " walked over the course" for the representation of Gloucester. Other instances of this enthusiastic welcome of the Ministerial candidates might be adduced and particu larised in the person of the Hon. Mr. COWPER, Sir DENIS Ls IlLtactiaer, and others; but we shall conclude the catalogue of electioneering memora bilia by a reference to the jubilant return of the Right Honourable RICHARD LALOR SUEIL for the borough of Dungarvan. We have cast this retrospective glance at the transactions which have recently transpired in the provinces, because in them we recognise the satisfaction of the British people with the character and principles of the RUS SELL Administration. From these electioneering remi niscenses we may deduce the prevailing sentiments of the nation, awl in their unanimity behold an emphatic tribute to those who have realised the brightest hopes of free trade, and an emphatic sanction of the new Cabinet and its leader. After such fortunate pre liminaries we may anticipate largely. The principal members of the new Administration last night took their places in the House for the first time after their re-election. It would, of course, have been impossible for them to have maturely con sidered the course to be adopted by them on the various questions of consequence which were alluded to in the course of the evening, or to be enabled to state the line of conduct to be pursued with respect to each. All that could be hoped for was that an early day would be appointed that the Ministerial intentions might be fully set forth as to the various measures of the late Government which would be proceeded with, dropped or altered in some particulars during the present session. The Premier has fixed Thursday next for this important explanation, and it must be admitted that no unreasonable delay has been demanded for that purpose. The public attention i n Ireland has been particularly directed to the three Bills brought forward by Lord LINCOLN immediately before his retiring from office, for the improvement of the relationship betvseen landlord and tenant, by granting compensation to the tenants for permanent and valuable improvements effected by them on their holdings during their occupation, if subsequently deprived of the enjoyment thereof, and also for the improvement of the law relating to ejectment, and the diminution of stamp duties on leases—foe, although these Bills by no means go far enough, or effect all that is required on the subject, yet they were received by all classes and parties a s valuable improvements and moves in the right direc tion, the principle of which would, without doubt, be much extended in the next ses sion. We were, therefore, much gratified by the statement made with respect thereto by the Right Hon. the Secretary for Ireland, who said that he had, with others, been engaged in a careful examination of those measures, with a view of seeing whether any benefit in them to Ireland could not be se cured notwithstanding the change of Government, and promised that the Premier or himself would, on Thursday, state the course the Government would take with respect to them. We have already pointed out the vast importance of the first of. these measures : improvements of the greatest consequence both to landlord and tenant, calculated permanently to in creme the value of the farms, haps not been effected, CANADA• We have received accounts, as already intimated, to the latest dates. The following are the chief item s worthy of notice. The Ministry was broken up. Sir Allan M'Nab is said to be Adjutant-General. We find the following paragraph, headed " Canada," in one of the New York papers of June 20 : 44 CANAba.--ANNExAnoN.--The British Cabinet of late have been uneasy in relation to the commercial affairs of the Canadas. Merchants are beginning to emigrate to the States ; produce finds its way to our .exports, and the severity of the winter, together with the many mont h s which the S t . Lawrence is closed by ice, render it more profitable an d expeditious to exp ort from th e S tates. The quest i on , under these circum stances, is f requent l y as k e d i n England, why go to , uch hea v y Yankees, w h en, i n fact, our ow n subjects render such expense to defend Canada aga i nst the defence unnnecessary.' Annexation is becoming more popular." A very destructive fire had taken place in St. John's, New Brunswick, and destroyed property to the amount of 10,0001. No byes, we believe, were log. C° II MERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. The money market at New York had become " stag. nant."

EXPLOSIONS IN COAL MINES. The following are the more important portions of the report of the gases and explosions in collivri( s, by Sir Henry T. De la Beebe and Dr. Lyon Playfair (just presented to Parliament by command of her Majesty). SIR HENRY T. DE LA DEERE AND DR. LYON PLAYFAIR TO VISCOUNT CANNING Museum of Economic Geology, June 1, 1846. My Lord—Rev-in.; in conformity with the instruc tions contained in the Earl of Lincoln's letter of the 27th August, 1845, directed our attention to the composition of the gases evolved from coal beds, to the mode of ven tilating collieries, and to the subject of xp'osions in them generally, we have the honour to submit the fol lowing statement for consideration. The general result of our examination is, that the only inflammable constituent present in the explo sive gas of collieries is carburetted hydrogen or the damp ; there is not a trace of olefiant gas, end only in one out of the eight gases analysed is there hydrogen. It follows from the previous analyses that the issue of fire damp into the atmosphere of it mine must deteriorate the air by adding an undue pro portion of nitrogen gas: in one case this gas amounts to twenty-one per cent. During an explosion the oxygen nece , sary to the respiration of the workers is removed by uniting with the carbon of the fire damp, and thus producing carbonic acid, a gas most fatal to anient 1 life. This carbonic acid, mixed with the residual nitrogen of the atmosphere, and that present in the explosive gas itself, forms what is termed after-damp, which produces effects more fatal even than those arising from the explo sion. It often happens that after an explosion a sufficient quantity of oxygen remains to support the respiration of those who SIM iVC its e ffects, were it not fur the pre set.ce of carbonic acid. This gas when present in no greater proportion than one or two per cent., is capable of producing the most injurious effects. It his therefore been sugges.ed that cheap mixtures made of substances capable of absorbing carbonic acid, such as glauber salts and lime, would prove useful to those who try to aid the sufferers after the explosion. Such a mixture, placed in a coarse bag and applied to the mouth, wou:d effectually absorb the carbonic acid and prevent it exercising an in jurious effect on the respiration. Certainly the want of some such precaution in the case of the Jarrow explosion caused the death of a very meritorious man, Jacob Dilly, the overman of the pit. An explosion is, however, generally attended with much more complex results than those described as at tending the comoustion of carburettcd hydrogen. The amount of fire damp which may be at first ignited may be trivial, and yet produce the most disastrous effects. From its lightness it accumulates at. the upper part of the passages, and diffuses with considerable difficulty, often acting as a train, and communicating the explosion to the p, nt-up reservoirs of gas in the goals. It is thus that in almost all accounts of explosions two are gene rally described as taking place ; the first local and at the seat of the explosion ; the second more general, and aided by an accumulation of foul gas in other tarts of the pit. In 1835 a Select Committee of the House of Commons was appointed to inquire " into the nature, cause, and extent of those lamentable catastrophes from explosions hich have occurred in the mines of Great Britain, with the view of ascertaining and suggesting the means of preventing the recurrence of similar fatal accidents." The Committee were enabled to ascertain that during the twenty-five years preceding these inquiries, 2,070 persons had perished from colliery explosions ; and they considered this number much underrated. During the last ten years the rate of loss of lite from this cause has certainly not diminished. The experience of the past year has shown that considerably more than 100 persons have been known to have thus perished. It has so unfortunately happened that during the few months we have been engaged upon this inquiry two explosions, one at Jarrow, in Durham, and the other at Risca, in Monmouthshire, have together deprived seventy-six persons of their lives, forty-one having perished at the former, and thirty-five at the latter. As much doubt has la en thrown upon the real safety of the Davy lamp, it is but justice to the memory of Sir Humphry Davy to state that he was perfectly aware that, if a proper mixture of fire damp and common air were thrown against tho lamp with sufficient force to project the flame upon the gauze cylinder, it might communicate with the flame, and eau:e explosion. Mr. Buddle, in his evidence (Report of Committee of 1835, No. 2,226 and 2,227) ; clearly shows this to have been the case. He mentions an experiment at Morton West pit, where a very power ful blower from the shaft was tried IN ith the lamp, when the flame passed and the blower was fired. Sir Hunaphre Davy then, addressing Lord Durham and many other persons who were present, said, " Now, gentlemen, you see the nature of the danger to which you are exposed in using the lamp, and I caution you to guard against it in the manner I have shown you. This is to show the only case in which the lamp will explode ; and I caution and warn you not to use it in any such case when you can avoid it without using the, shield." The shield re commended was one of tin, inside the cylinder, to pre sent a current of " fire damp" from acting on the flame. Mr. Buddle stated before the committee that in the lamps used in the collieries under his management the shield passed from one-half to two-thirds round the inside of the cylinder, and, being bright, reflected the light to such an extent as to be more advantageous than a glass cylinder inside that of Wire gauze, a contrivance often recommended to obviate the risk of currents of fire damp. Without desiring, in the slightest degree, to cast un necessary doubt on the safety of the Davy lamp, Sines we consider its cautious use an immense boon to coal mining, and believe that much additional security is ob tained by the proper use of the original Davy, or of its improvements, it can scarcely be denied that far more care in the use of safety lamps is needed than is cos moely emploe ed. Although shields or glass cylinder are used in some localities, they are never employed in others ; and the bare single cylinder of wire gauze, net always properly manufactured, is the only form in which the Davy lamp is known. And it should be observed, that with a few local exceptions, the Davy lamp is that commonly employed. Numerous modifications, and in some cases improvements, of the safety lamp have been made ; but, either from the expense, or want of sim plicity in management, have never como generally into use. It has been at various times proposed, during the last eight years, to employ electricity as a means of lighting collieries. The electricity, streaming be tween two charcoal points from a Grove's or Bunsen's battery, affords a light of much beauty. and perfectly safe, if completely surrounded by glass, but capable of igniting an explosive mixture if ex posed. Protessor Grove has constructed a lamp on this principle, which he kindly prepared for ue and which we have examined in action. It consisted of a box, con taining four galvanic cells, and the light was obtained by the passage of electricity between two coils of plati num wire. These were surrounded with glass vessels: the inner one for the purpose of isolation, the exterior one being fll!ed with water, so as to destroy the light should the inner glass vessel be broken. The light 4iven out was rather more than that of a minor's candle. This, certainly, is a safe lamp, but in its present state, still unfitted for the purpose of the collier as at pre cot ar ranged. The acids, sulphuric and nitric, render the lamp so inconveniently heavy, that both han6s must be used in carrying it; besides, from not being covered, the spilling of these corrosive liquids on the persons of the miners could scarcely be avoided. The water in the ex terior vessel soon becomes heated, aid ultimately boils, and the light only lasts in proper strength for two or three hours. There must, therefore, be considerable modification in this lamp before it can be rendered avail able for ordinary mining purposes, which we may readily expect. from the acknowledged talent of its inventor. Great improvements were introduced in the ventila tion of collieries in many districts, when the course of air was quickened by means of a furnace established near the bottom of the upcast shaft, or through that which the foul air passes outwards, and more particu larly when, in the north of England, instead of per mitting the air introduced by the downcast shaft to pass slowly and imperfectly along a course of twenty or thirty mites of passages, it was split or divided into separate courses, from two to six miles in length. Those, how ever, who may possess an extended acquaintance with 1i 6J 2% 3 13 , N 1414 6 4 1 /, 28 our collieries in different parts of the country cannot but e aware, that as a whole their general ventilation is very imperfect, good as it may be in some collieries, particu lariy in certain districts. When it is considered that coals are worked in the United Kingdom under every variety of condition—from levels driven into mountain sides to pits sunk to great depths through masses Of superincumbent rocks—in beds ranging from a vertical to a horizontal position, and even contorted and bent—sometimes traversed by faults, at others free from them—the beds near the Su r - face in one place, and ranging beneath mountains in another —in fact, under a great variety of geological con ditions, it is not difficult to see that many plans which hare been suggested for tire working of collieries, good as they may be for some loceilities, would be inapplicable generally, and would indeed fail, except under the con dition fitted for them. So various are the conditicxns under which collieries are or can be worked in the United Kingdom, Mat we would suggest for coasideraticm, if legislative measures should be deemed advisable, and an extension cf the principle which regulates tine employment of women and children in our miner, aria the labour in our fac tories, be thought good, Oast effective discretionary powers should be veste d in. properly-qualified persons, appointed in convenient 'list riots, so that the needful ad justments to conditions i nal be effected, awl no binge system be attempted inap t lit :able to our collieries as a whole. _ _ Any general system or legislation for 'conditions so different could only be pro du ctive of failure or cf Nu rious consequences, both tti owners and workers ; but a local exarnikation and inqu ix y, with power to at just to special conditions would, we s pprehend, remove the diffi cuiths which the I.,:gislaturel has felt in dealing with interests so important. Jealous as the coahowners 3 would properly be of any undue intermeddling with th tic collieries, it may never theless be true that a judieic is system of supt rintend ena. in a district, by which . the proper ventilation of collieries, efficient knowledge tin the part of subordinate agents, and proper punishmet IV; for foolhardiness or care lessness on the part of the colliers may be secured, would be a great advantage ,to ten individually and collectively, and be the savin, ty , f. only of IL es, hut of much captal, securing them, in the ease of accidents, from many an unjust occu , aii , 4.. for negl , ct. On the other hand. carert. I but not overt:tied:fling '-rvision would afford corrad E rice to the collier.

Though several collieries in particular districts Se; sass good plans and sections of their workings, ‘1 c 4. of inspection of such plans and sections afforelh It 3riug the system of ventilation and general mode of '. r r' - a i,d adopted, this is far from being the case genertil. has been much regretted alike by the enlightmd : ro t owners and by the public. The importance of co, plans and sections has been prominently pointed both by the Committee of the House of Cornmans' 1835, and in the report of the South Shields Cominigr., of 1843; indeed, the necessity of them is sufficfwst'Y obvious. Should the suggestion of a system of judicious i nap d,+ tion be deemed worthy of considen t i on , the xes i i access to proper plans and sections of collieries, brourir up to given times, would necessarily form Ft part sf general system of regulations. If correct (a3d pow! 4 ascertain that they were so would be esseretial), tbe would at once disclose the system of working l eu t be lation adopted, and, with information respec tin& 10 police regulations, and an account of the kind .7f P,g he employed, would at once afford a general view' toe rbO mode of conducting any particular colliery , a nd-' I° ' adjustment of the workings to conditions. „ Wis ed, It being considered that safety lamps, prePeril,b do effect much security in the working of coas . az" a re in so many cases explosions do take place when v• not employed, it has often been suggested that": the ~et gislature should cornFel the general use of sattsty in coal mines. But, on the other hand, there .sre Ola collieries in which fire damp never appears, and it sotti, justly be considered a hardship in such cases tot\ enle precaution altogether unnecessary. We would suggest that it could not be consid er 'ed 111'; just for the Legislature to compel the use of s afer :Ole in all fiery collieries; and, in the present state -of try law of property, it m g'at even be prudent to ass - o that all collieries in districts where explosions h T o r frequent are fiery, putting the onus probandi tl 'sat t"," are not upon the owners of such collieri es, if pr ovelleer the satisfaction of inspectors that no reasonable tins was to be apprehended in their collieries, lice:se. 01" ii, be given for them to work with naked candles, Piis ceme ceasing at short periods, but being rene w sbf :0$ ascertaining that the condition of the mine had alteCred re . l i o ns is Careful investigations mt® the causes of explcbs collieries, only part of which arrest public attewli' 4l , o l their magnitude, appear to have led to the very t',e ° '„"oi conclusion that the condition of our collieries is, °lvo unequal. While in some localities there is so little improve that it becomes subject of regret that to examples should more generally be followed , in ow be it becomes a matter of surprise how the w orks cs °tot permitted to remain in so defective a state, seeissa'dot the owners themselves suffer much loss tistreby. 1. of such a state of things, and considering the nttisu e) the valuable lives annually lost by colliery explosions t ,so continw d risk to which so many arc daily cxpcs o4 :ass 4 national injury sustained by the imprudent and cavrAls mode of extracting coal in many localities one often oppressively also by the parties engaged in colliertsp, culations, and that the workings for coal must Dethey justed to local conditions, we are led to consider o'ol , mese evils might be at least mitigated by the Car o, and judicious inspection of convenient districts by fro © potent persons,_ the necessary funds to be rail eet_,a, such districts by a very slight impost, not even 07,03 e e a t i h e a v , a t e h r e s ing one farthing on each ton of coal raised in it : o re t , of humanityc w au ou se ld of bealike a' b th e e lie C y we ben a e n fi d te t d he b in v t considered legislative measure of this kind.
