Orders have been issued to the priLcipal officers of the several departments, to permit the same in future accordingly. This order will be a source of great convenience to the importers and dealers in tobacco, and will be of interest and im.• portance to the trade.

THE BULL -FIGHT S IN SPAIN.—We read in the Quotidienne :—" The long-talked-of weddings in Spain Will be destructive to the poor bulls of the country. To conciliat e the ill-humour of the people of Madrid there are to be brilliant corridas de Torus. Moutes, Sevilla, El Ariclanero, the most celebrated artists, are to display their courage and address. Fifty bulls are to be given UP to slaughter, forty horses are to be embowelled, seven or eight picadores are to be wounded, and some Maaadores will p ro b a bl y b e kill e d on t h e arena, as ha o p- Perted on ce at C a p e Hull o , an d then the fete Will be complete. We have before us a curious ac count of the number of deaths which have occurred in the Circus at Madrid during the fourteen years from 1832 to 1845 inclusively. It comprises 2,257 bulls and 2,934 horses, sacrificed to the delight of the amateurs of the Tauromachial. In fact, in the item of bulls, 1840, was the least satisfactory year, as only 101 perished. This was scarcely worth the trouble. The palm of numbers may be claimed by 1833, in which year 233 bulls died in all the pride and happiness of having thus afforded pleasure to the inhabitants of the capital of Spain. In 1841 there were 161 horses killed, and this was con sidered a very bad year ; but 1840 was a truly brilliant one; 343 were laid dead on the field; being six or seven to each Corida, supposing that these innocent games were renewed once a week. Last year (1845) the de struction was 173 bulls and 335 horses." AN ORIGINAL LETTER OF GRACE DARLING'S.— We (Sherborne Journal) have been favoured with the original of the following letter, written by the lamented Grace Darling to Mr. S. Burton the sailor' s m i ss i onary, in reply t o one sent by him relating to her conduct at the Wreck of the Forfarshire. The letter is written in a neat and unaffected handwriting, and emits evidently that meek Christian spirit for which the memory of Grace Darling is revered as much as for her heroism and self-devotion :—" Dear Sir,—l recd. yours Dated 9th Inst., for which I begg to return my sincere t hanks fo r th e good advice Contained in the same.

THE NEW ROYAL MARINE BARRACKS AT WOOL WICIL—This splendid range of buildings, constructed on the site of the old Marine Barracks for the accom modation of 1,000, with excellent officers' and staff non commissioned officers' quarters, and offices for the re cords and transactions of the division, is now nearly completed, and partly occupied by the shoemakers and tailors of the corps. The buildings are constructed in the strongest manner and of the best quality of mate rials, and perfectly fire-proof. The partly underground in front, and level ground in rear, or kitchen story, con tains large fire-places, with ranges, and every conve nience fo r coo ki ng. T he floors of the kitchens are laid with large freestone slabs, 12 feet by 6 feet, and the re maining, portion with asphalte or a composition of a similafdescription. The water cisterns in the kitchens are formed of an excellent quality of slate, admirably joined together. The shelves are of cast metal, and tne suppo.bc.ct cho hri.fr arches of the roof of the kitchens of the same material. The stairs are of wood, but covered entirely with sheet lead. The first and second stories in front, or sleeping rooms, are spacious and without one particle of wood in any of them, the roofs being formed of bricks supported on cast-iron beams, and the floor formed entirely of the asphalte composition. The mode in which they are warmed io winter, and ventilated or supplied with cold in sum mer, is by means of a revolving fan eight feet in dia meter, which will be wound up daily, and operate by weights, in the same manner as a church clock. The landing places are formed of the best Rockhill paving slabs. and the outer stairs consist of 10 steps of granite with granite balustrades, connected with light but sub stantialrangearchesbuildings r a ili ngs, On the south-west front of the prin cipal numero us are feet six inches high, and betwixt the arches and front of the rooms a spacious pathway cepable of allowing six men to walk abreast, and extending the whole length of the building, with the exception of the two wings. The detached buildings are also in a forwatd state, and when the whole of this extensive barrack is completed it will b e of a vvry superior description to the quarters for merly occupied by this corps. The Hebe receiving ship, at the west end of Woolwich dockyard, is now nearly ready for havingt reception of 300 of the single men, and officers g the charge of them. A space extending the whole length of the vessel has been inclosed to avoid any connection with the dockyard, and a wicket gate the road to Charlton opened leadinf, into n pier. Every arrangement has be en made for the acc ommodation of the men on board the Hebe, and she has been thoroughly cleaned and painted, and fitted with cooking apparatus for the comfort of the Royal Marines who will b e sta tiered in her.

FIRE AND LOSS OF LIFE. Last night, shortly aft er nine o'clock, a fire of a most distressing character b ro k e out upon t h e premises in th e occupation of Mr. John Sharp, a printer and bookseller, carrying on business at 30, King-street, St. George's, Southwark. It appears that Mr. Sharp has lately been engaged in manufacturing fireworks, and some of the combustible matter must hare exploded, occasioning a terrible dis aster. The alarm was given by the front of the shop being blown into the street with fearful violence, and at the same time the interior was seen enveloped in flames. Water was sreedily procured, and thrown on the fire. Mr. Sharp, who had• left the place barely five minutes, returned home, when his attention was attracted by hear ing violent screams proceeding from a back parlous.. He forced his way through the dense Smoke, and found two of his children almost suffocated. After considerable trouble he succeded in getting them out, but "not before one was terribly injured. It was then believed that no person had perished, and the engines of the Brigade - and the West of England Company coming up, the fire was got under. As soon as the shop could be entered, an examination was made, and the body of ,_a female was found beiteath the counter, life being quite extinct, which proved to be the eldest daughter of the proprietor, who had remained in the shop during her father's absence, and unfortunately perished by the explosion. Mr. Sharp is wholly uninsured. e engines unflinching FIRE IN THE BOROUGH. Last night, shortly before eleven o'clock, a destructive fire broke out upon the extensive premises of Mr. T. Cowper, mercer and haberdasher, 144, High-street, Borough. Flames were first perceived in the lower part of the premises, which are . of considerable extent. In a very short time after the discovery of the outbreak the fire assumed an aspect of a most alarming character, the entire premises exhibiting one body of fire. Information was received at the several stations, and in a very short time an engine of the London Fire Establishment, and were got to work. the Watling-street engine with Mr .Braidwood, were upon the spot, closely followed by others. The water from determination, the Southwark mains was fortunately plentiful, and in a Bybriefj, dint i space a c and in the midst of great danger, the firemen continued their efforts until the fire began to yield. Notwithstand ing their efforts, the house was gutted, and the whole of the valuable stock and furniture completely of e of perseverance ti m s es r and al destroyed. How the parties on the premises escaped, or whether the adjoing buildings were injured, could not in the excite ment be gleaned, nor could any information be obtained as to whether the parties are insured. DEPRESSED STATE OF THE rEINTINO BUSINESS.— The scarcity of employment which has prevailed for a considerable portion of the present year amongst the printers of the metropolis has scarcely ever been equalled. During the last six months the compositors of London have disbursed towards the relief of their brethren out of work a sum exceeding 1,200/. Each person has received 6s. a week, the number of recipients ranging from 160 to 230. At this season of the year, when the trade is generally good, the number out of employ amounts to °lO. A large proportion of this use ful body of men have families dependent on their labour. , and are still enduring, need privations they n th o e c y o m m u m st :nt. haveuunntdoerrtguonnaetely, is no present prosp e 't of their amelior a ti on. `'"The Chancellor o f the gtichequer returned to town too, there yesterday. THE GREAT BRITAIN. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.- We have no further intel ligence of moment to-day with regard to the Great Britain. We subjoin the closing letter from a corresp dent : DUNDRUM BAY, TUESDAY AFTERNOON. My communication to-day must necessarily be meagre from the absence of any occurrence of note since the dispatch of my last letter. One melancholy fact, how ever, it is my duty to state. There is now no hope left that the Great Britain can be rescued, at least for the present. To-day the spring tides reached their climax, but again the violence of the seaway in the bay pre vented the approach of assistance. _ Last night, at high water, it blew freshly from the east ; but this morning the ship did not appear to have materially altered her position, though it is probable she had forged ahead in some degree. When the hour of high water arrived, the ship appeared to float to some ex tent. The steam-tugs, however, which at daylight had returned to the offing, could not near the vessel, and it was evident to all practical men that there was little or no chance of her being got off unless some extraordi-• nary power of flotation were brought into requisition. The ship's fore and aft sails were spread on her foremast during the morning, apparently with the view of keep ing the head from forging upon the ledge of rock which projects from the sands at the distance of some 70 yards from the stern. I left the spot at the ebb of the tide. The steam-tugs left in the course of the day. The surf in the offing on their appearance this morning was running very high, and one of them drew off towards Annabay Point, about S.W. from the ship, and we have since seen no more of her. The Dread nought, however, anchored a long way outside, and, though she got her steam well up, she did not venture to come in shore, although signals were several times hoisted on the Great Britain's mizen to bring to if possible.. The. _surf, caused by the gale and the inset of the tide upon the rocky and dangerous coast, rendered the attempt unadvisable, and Captain Hosken was compelled early in the afternoon to signalise her departure. It had been intended to dispatch the crew and stores of the ship in her to Liverpool. The arduous duties of these . two fine steamers have been well per formed, and their commanders have throughout acted with the greatest skill and energy. LIVERPOOL, FRlDAY.—Disastrous accounts have been again received from Dundrpm Bay.; and these, accounts, together with'the fact made known by Captain Claxton, that the rivets in the ship's bottom started on Monday last, have tended t.n ‘• , ... 4 ••••.• deebsg the nave gained ground in the public mind, that the ill-fated..vesser will -never- be rescued from her present posltion. There can be little question that the injuries announeed, in the managing director's letter have been materially increased by the gale and the heavy seas which had set in on Monday last upon the shores of Dundruixt Bay. We subjoin a letter from a correspondent:— DUNDRUM BAY, WEDNESDAY NOON, OCT. 7. My report to-day will be comparatively uninteresting. The springs have now passed, and the opportunity of getting the Great Britain off has been lost. Last night's tide was accompanied with a heavy gale, and the Great Britain this morning appears to have forged some fifteen yards further up the beach, with her head pointing N.N.W. - She is not now afloat, but high tide will again make in about half an hour, and she may possibly then move. . It cannot, however, be for the better. The wind is now blowing almost a gale from the south; the sea setting right into the bay lashes violently under the ship's stern, and the salt spray is bursting in clouds over half the length of her decks. The scene is grand and impressive in the extreme. The bight of the bay en the ncrth and west from the coast-guard station house, where I now write, presents, from the rolling of a terrific and rapid succession of waves, a most sublime appearance, as, indeed, does the whole of this rocky and stony coast, extending from St. John's Point lighthouse to Annalong Point to the south, where the lofty Mourne Mountains terminate in the sea. The distance between these two points, forming the outer boundaries of the bay, is perhaps twenty miles. The rudder of the ship has disappeared for some days, and the screw-propeller appears to be considerably in jured. There can be no question that the vessel is thumping on the shore, and she has made from time to time during the last few days an immense quantity of water. The country people are still engaged in removing the discharged coals from the beach, but some still, I learn, remain on board. ONE O'CLOCK, P.M. The storm keeps increasing as the tide becomes nearly full, and it is now accompanied by a heavy beating rain and spendrift, which dashes against the look-out win dows of the station-house. The surf continues to wash over the ship more and more violently, and she presents a truly sad spectacle. The great probability is, that her whole frame is strained and her bottom injured; but the real facts cannot be ascertained until low water. She has still several chain cables and anchors out astern, but morning i a e p g p h ea a r d h t e o r f b e e rw s a la rd ck g ; afr an s.a d il a o s r s t h p e a n s k h e i r p s e h t a , s l a t l h i i t n h k e it likely that all hopes of getting her off are abandoned, and that the object now is to forge her on as far as pos.! sible upon the beach, in order that her position 'may be rendered secure, or that if she be broken up the mate rials may be better secured. The ship rolls slightly, and has apparently altered her position. Her bow lies to the north. Her larboard quarter is most exposed to the sea. FOUR O'CLOCK, P.M. The tide has fallen but little, if anything, from the ship. She has shifted her stern to about N.W. I fear she must have sustained sleplorable damage; and should the gale continue, I cannot but apprehend that the tide will be fumed beyond its prOper boundi,:and that the sea way may prove still more disastrous to the noble but ill fated vessel. We annex the following from the Northern Tl'h;9 : WEDNESDAY MORNING, NINE O'CLOCK, A.M. Last night's weather hns'given a more severe trial to the unfortunate Great Britain than she has had to en counter since she came ashore here. The wind is now about due south, blowing stiffly, and the seaway in the bay is absolutely terrific. There is not, except the Great Britain herself, a single craft of any dimensions within view, nor is there the slightest chance that any can, during this, the last of the high tides, approach her. The war of the waves dashing themselves into minute particles of foam upon the rocks at the edge of the coast, borders on the sublime, and the spray which beats against the larboard side of the Great Britain, which lies to seaward, falls in a shower into the tide on the starboard side ; the waves, at intervals, rising over her stern, and washing her so far fore as her main mast. The country people are still engaged carting off the coals, a considerable heap of which lie on the beach yet. That she can never leave the spot she now occupies amounts to all.but an absolute certainty. The captain is still in charge of her, and continues on board. One of the crew just now informed me that a number of the hands leave her to-day ; but Ido not pledge myself to the accuracy of the statement. I have heard rumours also respecting handing her over to the insurance com pany's agents, but as I hid no opportunity of informing my self in authentic sources, I do not feel myself at liberty to state them. Two O'CLOCK, P.M. The tide has been now something better than , an hour on ebb ; but it has not receded the length of the Great Britain's bow. Her stern is shifted north-west, or in the direction of the coast-guard station-house, from the window of which we have been taking observations for the: last two hours, as the rain is falling heavily. The water does not, from this, appear to have made any im pression on her works ; but, as I mentioned before, there is no point on shore whence one can see her larboard quarter, the part exposed, in the greatest degree, to the violence of the waves. A portion of the gangway, used for the purpose of getting on board at ebb tide, was loosened, and d r if te d on s h ore last night. This, of course, is not a fact of any great importance, inasmuch as it may not have been secured very strongly to its berth. She cannot, however, were she every inch of steel, stand much longer, in such a sea. The captain keeps up the foregaffsail still ; but it can not well be imagined that she can drift ranch nearer the beach than she is at present. It is blowing nearly a gale now, and the rain is falling in torrents. The only cir cumstance which could make any of the succeeding _tides at all high enough for the purpose of floating her off, namely, a stiff breeze to the land, would render it a task of impossibility for any craft to come near her ; so that, viewed as it may be, there; is nit the slightest chance left for it. FOUR O'CLOCK, P.M. The tide has now rececled %bout half-way, and leaves the Great Britain much the worse for the beating of. the heavy sea to which she has been exposed. She is Cii dently in a very bul and Beaky Condition ; some of the salines stated to me to 7 daythat water was nearly as high within her as it rose on her outside. One of the sails on her foremast has been set during the day, at least since ten o'clock ; and the effect of this has been to put her as far as she can be expected to come upon the shore. Tho wind has settled considerably ; but the idea of endea vouring to get her off seems to have been entirely giren up. The only course now left is to get what she con tains as expeditiously ashore as possible. The following is an extract from a private letter with which we have been favoured by a gentleman residing in town. The letter was written at Dundrum, on Monday; and we may mention, that its author is an experienced seaman :—" The gale of the last two days has decided her fate ; all sail is now set to harden her higher up on the beach. She sprung a leak last night, and makes now two feet water per hour. I believe they intend to let her remain here until next summer." THE MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 2. The Madrid, Captain Bingham, arrived here at four - P M., and landed the Peninsular and other mails. Her dates are—Gibraltar, Sept. 28, Cadiz, 29, Lisbon, Oct. 2. She has 24 passengers, and good cargo. The Madrid has experienced very ad weather, both out and home. The Royal Tar, Captain Hamilton, with Penh-War and other mails, and 30 passengers, left the dock at three P.M, OR Wednesday, but, from the severity of the gale, she was compelled to anchor for the night in Yarmouth roads, in the course of which she broke from Ler moor ings, losing two anchors and cables. The Royal Tar returned to this port, and procured new anchors, &e., and proceeded at noon en route' for Gibraltar. The storm of wind and rain with which this port has been visited without intermission since Friday last has been most tremendous, and at present does not seem likely to abate. The Lady de Saumarez, Guernsey mail-packet, left the pier on Tuesday evening, with the mails and 53 passengers, but was obliged, in consequence of the weather, to come-to off Calshot Castle. She returned to Southampton on Wednesday night, and left again at seven P.N. yesterday. The Achilles, Captain Wilson, is due to-morrow frois Alexandria, with East India and China mails. It can hardly be expected she can be here to time. The Transit steam-vessel, belonging to the New South-Western Company, daily expected from Vigo, with a cargo of cattle. - • LATEST PRICES-.

West India Sugar of all kinds for the scale and pan, in con sequence of merchants being sellers at previous moderate rates. The purchases amounted to 600 hhds, &c., including at auction 45 hhds 26 trcs of Jamaca, which went at..sos for good yellow, 48s to 48s 6d for middling, and 468 to 463'6d for low yellow. REFINED.—The home trade have been induced to purchase Refined goods with more freedom this week, in consequence of rather lower rates having been taken; the supply . of all qualities is, however, larger than it was, as the refiners are working freely, and likely so to keep, as they are ob taining satisfactory profits, and are getting 18s for working. Pieces have slightly declined in value, there being att'in creased quantity on offer, but a good demand has been , ex perienced. Bastards have met with little attention, and the supply being large there are ready sellers. For Treacle of every sort prices are rising, the demand being extensive and the supply small. Crushed Sugar for exportation has been purchased ;with caution, although there are sellers of first quality at 33s per cwt ; the refiners continue freely at work. Treacle is still wanted, and prices are firm. Dutch Crushed Sugar is heavy of disposal. For Loaves manufactured here the export demand has been good. Kaunrrios.—This afternoon at public sale 1,484 bags - and 16 hhds were offered, and sold at the former worth, good yellow at. 47s 6d to 50s, middling 45s to 475, low 43s -to 445, fine brown 42s 6d,- washed 42s to 475, and syruppy 428 p6r bwt. kin - Ilinu.—This afternoon the public sales of •Bengal i , Sugaeoonsitted of 4,145 bags, nearly th e w h o l e so ld, and at full • MoLasszs.—West India is wanted, and having but a mo- . dera,te supply prices are looking up. The private sales thiii week are 400 puns, Dominica at 225, and St. Vincents 225. Bally Khal Treacle has been in' good request, and prices are firm at 225; the supply has again become small. Fonnfort.,—There has been a larger supply of all descrip tions of Foreign Sugar at.market this week.. For brown•and the lower kinds of yellow, of which there is a heavy stock here, prices are generally lowering, but for white and the better kinds of yellow they rule firm, the home trade being inclined to get stocked with such. Porto Rico has been in excellent demand and brought advanced rates, more particularly the better sorts. At auc tion 198 hhds and 100 barrels were all sold. Manilla has met with little attention by private contract, and at...auction 9,530 bags were mostly taken in at the former value.- White China is wanted at previous rates, but little desire has been shown to buy the brown and yellow kinds, although they can be had upon easier terms. Java has been sold to a fair extent at the former currency, the better sorts being the most preferred. White Havannah is attracting less atten tion, but stiff rates have been obtained far the few parcels sold privately. Yellow in good request, and prices fully equal to throe previously current, and several parcels have been sold by private treaty. Brown, however, has met with little atten tion, and can be obtained at moderate rates. For exportation Foreign has been sparingly dealt in by private contracts, al though there are sellers at moderate rates, and several parcels are pressing for sale. COFFEE.-This afternoon 677 bags Plantation Ceylon were offered at auction, and partly sold at 52s fcr line ordinary grey, and at lOs to 33s for triage, being about the former value, fine fine ordinary was taken is at 545. 10 bales Mocha sold at 40s for triage. 55 casks of Jamaica went at 69s Gd to 70s Gd for middling, at 33s 6d to 48s 6d for other sorts, and at 26s to 30s for triage, being the former value. 70 bags 71 barrels La Guayra fetched 50s to 51s 6d for fine fine ordinary, and 41s 6d for good ordinary, and 80 bags Costa Rica 35s 6d for good ordinary. CocoA.—West India has been purchased with more free dom, but no improvement in prices has taken place. At public sale 162 bags of Trinidad were sold. For Foreign previous rates are asked, but few buyers are to be met with. TEA.—None has been offered at public sale since our last, still Congou has been dealt in sparingly, notwithstanding the low rates that prevail ; the trade only purchase sufficient for their present wants, and there is only a fair supply at market of all descriptions. In Pouchong a good business has been done, and th e su pply b e i ng small, prices rule firm. Of Souchong some 1 3 4r0e15 Ilitve been dispose 4 of, but ac -- - STIRLING . AND DUNFERMLINE BURGHS.--DEATH OF MR. GILLON. We regret to have to record the death of W. D. Gillon, Esq., of Wallhouse. This melancholy and un expected event occurred on Wednesday morning; and the tidings have thrown a deep gloom over the extensive • district in which the deceased's tiall*:WaS so prominently before the public as a candidate forche honour of serving them in Parliament. The lamented . gentleman's poli tical opponents unite With his supporters in deploring a • calamity which thus deprives society of an usetul member and inflicts an irreparable loss oh an - amiable and highly esteemed family. As a public man, Mr. Gillon had long been admired for the literality of his views and the manly independence• of his character, whilst his private life, his extensive hospitalities, and generous social quali ties' justly endeared hi m t o a l arge c i rcle of neighbours and friends. It Li supposed that this painful event will prevent fur ther serious opposition to the election of Mr. J. B. Smith as representative of the Stirling_Berg...hs. The personal esteem in which Mr. Gillon was held by a large circle of local connexions is believed to have been the only ob stacle to perfect unanimity among the Liberal electors of all classes in behalf of Mr. Smith: whose superior qualifications and pre-eniinent claims te a seat in Parlia ment were frankly acknowledged by Mr. Gillon himself, and the 'great bcdy of his supporters Opposition, in deed, in any other instance, we' belief would would be hope less. The , Edinbu t gh Whig - clique '.cannot possibly -select' another 'candidate_ whom Abe: supporters of Mr. Gillen fvotila pr.fcf to the distinguished_ ex-Chairman of thet.Anti-Corn-law League, andexrPiesident of the „Maknckester Chamber of Commerce ; nor do we think they will hem - the. folly. to• betray thtir own weak ness by making such an attempt„. The Whig ekctors of the Stirling and Dunfermline Burghs are numerous and powerful, but they.-are likewise staunch free-traders, and incapable, we trest;fif 'succumbing to metropolitan dictation ; and we dg ' : nOt ~believe one of them was induced to withhold his support from Mr. Smith by any other consideration than .that of personal attachment to Mr. Gillon. Indeed; it is scarcely possible that any of them could oppose Mr; Smith from other motives, inasmuch as the perfect unanimity of political sentiments displayed in the respective addresses of that gentleman and Gillon shoWed theWo - candidates to be without difference of political opinion. That Mr. Allison cannot succeed to the support afforded Mr. Gillon is clearly manifest. The gentlemen who were prepared to repose confidence in the •latter, on account of his long experience and tried services, can scarcely be expected to repose similar confidence in'a young, un tried, inexperienced man ; more especiallihen another long-tried candidate offers himself' to their preference. Under these circumstances it may confidently be hoped that the harmony which it is so essential should exist among Liberals of all Classes will ho larger be disturbed in these burghs on occasion of .Lord . Dalmeny's retire ment; but, on the - contrary, That the - Unanimity which pervades all parties in regretting 'Mr. Gillon's untimely death will be equally extended to the important event affected thereby. The p o liti ca l -friends 'or Mr. Gillon cannot, on the occasion more suitably ere their re spect for his memory than by testifying - that; the " high respect" which: he so recently proclaimed'towards Mr. Smith operates as paramount inducement to them to transfer to Mr. Smith the political confidence and sup port they. were prepared to have rendered to Mr. Gillon. —Edinburgh Chronicle of this day.
