THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5, 1846. THE LATE STEAM-BOILER EX- PLOSION. MR. FAIRBAIRN'S REPORT. On Monday the adjourned inquest upon the bodies of the three unfortunate persons who were killed by the late explosion at Ashton-under-Lyne, was held before the county coroner. In consequence of its being known that Win. Fair bairn, Esq., C.E., had been directed by the coroner to draw up a report of the disaster, the room was thronged by many manufacturers from different parts of the country. There were also several scientific gentlemen present. Mr. John Bayley, one of the masters, said, my part ner's name is Richard Dewhurst ; we have had the mill sixteen months. The engineer we employed is named Marshall ; we bad no fireman, he did all the work. I got to the mill on the mor nin g of t he accident about a quarter to six. I went into the boiler-house for a light; the engine man was attending . to the fire. I lighted up the warehouse, and returned into the boiler-house, and lighted a gas which looks over the steam guage. Ac cording to the guage, the steam stood about five inches. I then looked at the water guage, and that was within an inch of the ordinary working height. I again went into the warehouse, and had not been in more than two minutes before the explosion took place. Th e ordinary working height is from ten to twelve inches of steam. I never exchanged a word with the engineer. I bad con • fidence in Marshall's ability. In answer to Mr. Barlow, one of the owners of the property, witness stated that the engine was of 18-horse power, and that it turned 9,600 mill spindles. George Brandon said—Mr. Bayley sent for me to start the engine. It was stopped, and I found a stud of the eccentric loose. The fly wheel caaght the wall plate, and broke it. The engine did not start again that day. John Thomas came on the Monday morning in Crook's place ; but Mr. Bayley sent him home. Some questions being asked about the safety valve, Mr. Fairbairn said, as he understood, there was a wood prop under the lever of the valve, which kept it down, and prevented any escape of the steam; witness said, the prop was under when I went there, and I left it so; I did not apprehend danger when the engine was at work. I always disturbed the prop when the steam was about 12 inches. If the gauge was stopped by dirt, as it sometimes was, I had no criterion to go by only my own judgment. In reply to Mr. Earle, the witness said the duty of ' the engineer is to look after the guages and valves, not the master's I told Crooks he must keep the steam at twelve inches, or it would plague him. I looked in the boiler when it was being cleaned yesterday week, and said at that time to a joiner named James Stafford, this boiler will cause some accident. I was not aware but there was a stay from end to end, but it has not. Staf ford said tell - Mr. Bayley, and I said I would, but did not do so, in consequence of being taken sick. Thomas Crooks said, I live in Cotton-street, and went to fire up for last witness. I saw the safety-valve was fast. I said to one of the young masters that it was dangerous. The peg of the steam gauge stood about 20 inches high. Brandon had it that high when I went ; it's no use telling a lie about it. The engine was stopped at this time. The gauge should be 13 when the engine is on. I was frightened in consequence of the safety valve not acting. The boiler had no stay over the fire place, and it ought to have had four. " Mr. Fairbairn said that he had no doubt whatever but the accident was caused by an over-pressure of steam. For the purpose of giving the fullest informa tion on the subject, he had written out a report which he read. A portion of this only need be quoted : " The true cause of the eruption, namely, that the safety valve was fast, and the engineer being engaged in cleansing and charging the farnace for nearly halt an hour previous to the explosion (with no escape for the steam . ), the boiler, as in all such cases, became an in strument of destruction, involving the most ruinous re sults to all those within the reach of its influence. This fact, therefore, removes all doubt as to the cause of this lamentable occurrence, which, like most others of the same kind, has arisen from culpable negligence of the engineer, and a callous disregard of consequences too serious to be contemplated. On no account whatever should the safety valves of steam boilers be allowed to be touched after they are once loaded and set , e xce p t i n g only for the purpose of ascertaining its free working condition. * * * * * The safety valve being fast, and all escape for the steam being closed, it is easy to conceive what would be the result, namely, that of excessive pressure, which acting upon the weaker parts of the boiler, would bear down that over the fur nace, and hence follows the total destruction of the build ings, and the ruinous consequences which ensued. It will be observed that the boiler in its descent made a complete somerset, and reversed its position, which can only be accounted for by the reaction of the forces upon the furnace end of the boiler, thus producing a rotative motion during its ascent. In almost every case where high steam is suddenly liberated the boiler becomes a projectile of enormous force, which no erection, how ever solid, can resist. Before closing these remarks, I would respectfully direct attention to the heavy re sponsibility attached to the management of steam boilers. A little more attention would go far to pre vent accidents of this kind, if it did not entirely remove them altogeth er . O n a f ormer occas ion I took the liberty of adverting to the present imper fect state of our knowledge, as regards the education of an exceedingly useful body of men. I mean that class of engineers into whose hands the lives and property of the public are entrusted. At present engineers are far from possessing an adequate knowledge of the elements of their profession, not yet has their moral condition at tained that high standard of character so essential to a faithful discharge of their respective duties. It will yet require some years before such men can be trained for the public service, but I still hope in this age of steam and steam-engines to see the whole of our steam navy, railways, and manufactures, guided and governed by a body of men at once inspiring confidence and respect This desirable object cannot, however, be attained but through the joint aid of the Government, railway and steam navigation companies, including manufacturers in the erection of normal schools for the education of engineers. In conclusion I would recommend the same suggestions which I urged on the occasion of the boiler explosion at Bolton, that the following regulations be observed.- Ist. That the practice of placing boilers under buildings where the workpeople are employed be discontinued. 2d. That two safety valves be attached to each boiler, one of them to be weighted from the inside to the re quired pressure, and to have a long ascending discharge pipe out of the reach of interference ; the other to be under the control of the engineer. These valves, in order to be perfectly safe, should have, respectively, an area equal to one-half of the steam pipe, or about one square inch to every two horse of the computed power of the boiler. 3d. That in cases where boilers are situated under mills, a mercurial gauge, indicating the pressure of the steam, and an ascending column of water correspond ing with that pressure, will be found of great value in cases of negligence on th e p ar t o f th e fi reman or engineer. Lastly, each boiler should have a water gauge and two fusible fire-plugs composed of su it a bl e materials." After the reading of the report, the coroner and jury were of opinion that no other witnesses was necessary. A juror wished the last engineer, Marshall, called in, which was done, and, in answer to questions put to him, said he bad taken out the prop, from under the boiler, the day before the accident. The jury were then left to themselves, an& after a few minutes' deliberation, returned a verdict of " Accidental death, caused by an over-pressure of steam, and by reason al the safety-valve of the said steam-boiler having been overloaded or pressed down, but by whom, or by what means, is not known."—Crowds of persons were con gregated in the street to hear the result. FREAKS OF AN ENGINE.—One of the engines on the 'Taff Vale Railway " ran away" on Wednesday morn ing when not very distant from the Bute Dock Terminus; it dashed onwards, got to the end of the rails which were turned upwards, knocked them off; and after running a short way on the gravel and knocking a lamp-post down, was stopped either for want of steam or by getting its wheels too deeply embedded in the soil to permit of its carrying the joke any further. From information we have received, it seems the accident was caused by these circumstances :—The coupling chain, connecting the engine to the tender, broke, upon which, being relieved of its burden, the engine instantly acquired a great in crease of speed; the driver, who happened to have one toot on the tender at the time, fell backwards, so that no one was left on the engine to shut off the steam, as the stoker jumped off. Two waggons were much damaged, but no accident to life or limb occurred.—Cardiff and Merthyr Guardian. Tu ARMY. - Thirty-two gentlemen have been gazetted as Cornets or Ensigns in the army during the preceding month, 22 of whom have their commissions, varying in price from 4501. to 1,200/. eac h, p urc h ase d , and amounting in the aggregate to the sum of 10,000/. The following non-commissioned officers have been pro. moted during the month, and have received the usual bounty of 100/. each to assist them in their outfit as commissioned officers:—Sergeant-Ma jor W. Blackburn, to be Ensign in the 83d Foot; Colour Sergeant J. Mansfield, to be Quarter -Master in the 2d Foot; Ser geant-Major W. Stillwell, to be Quarter Master in the Rifle Brigade. 31 Ensigns have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, 12 without purchase, and 19 by purchase. The amount which has thereby changed hands is 6,9504 the regulated difference for the com missions varying from 2001. to 850 1 . each. 18 Lieutenants have been promoted to the rank of Captain, 7 w ithout purchase, and 11 by purchase. The amount which has thereby changed hands is 10,4001., the regulated difference for the commissions varying from 1,100/. to 2,7501. each. Six Captains have been promoted to the rank of Major, five by brevet, and one by purchase. Amount of purchase-money, 3,5001. Three Majors have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Cononel by brevet. Eight Assistant-Surgeons have been pro moted to the rank of Surgon, and nine medical gentle men have been gazetted as Assistant-Surgeons. CONTINUED DESECRATION OF THE DEAD.—THE ST. GILES'S PAUPER BURIAL-GROUND.—According as the excavations proceed and preparations are made to sink the foundations f o r th e new building s about to be erected in Short ' s -gardens, immediately at the rear of St. Giles's Workhouse, ad ditional t coffins are found at depths Tar f e e t ying fro m 4to 12 f rom the surf ace .

It is the intention to spread a thick layer of concrete over the surface, in order to prevent any unwholesome exhalations. - - STOCK EXCHANGE SPECULATIONS. The case of Messrs. Roches having caused a great sensation amongst those who have had anything to do with railway shares and bargains, we give the form of the oath administered to the person who prevents himself to be sworn in as a broker, the copy of the bond entered into by him, and the copy of the rules, order s, and regu lations by which brokers are governed.

" WOODTHORPE." HORRIBLE ASSASSINATION OF THREE PERSONS. (From the Gazette de Tribunaux.) A terrible and mysterious crime has just been com mitted at Six-Fours, near Toulon. The victims are a man named Corneille and his wife, each about fifty years of age, and their mother, aged ninety-four. They were in easy circumstances, and inhabited a farm in the neighbourhood of the above place, together with a son and daughter, about twenty years of age. The latter had passed the night in a neighbouring village, at a re lation's, and on returning, the next morning, were aston ished to find the doors and window-shutters closed, and smoke issuing from the crevices. Alarmed at this, they quickly opened the parlour-shutters, when, to their horror, they saw their father stretched on the floor in a pool of blood, having evidently been shot full in the face, so that his death must have been instantaneous. He seemed to have been called out of bed to open the door to some one, as ho had on his trowsers, but neither shoes nor stockings. On the first flour was found the body of Madame Corneille, who had been killed in the same manner as her husband. As she had on merely her night-;own and an under garment it is thought that she bad been shot while get ting out of bed to go to the assistance of her husband. In the next room was found the body of the poor old grandmother—almost a centenarian—stretched lifeless on the bed ; her skull and breast fractured, and her right arm broken. In order to efface all traces of their crime, after having taken a hundred francs and a few gold trinkets, the murderers had coolly taken measures for ensuring the complete conflagration of the house and its contents. Under every bed, and in almost every piece of furniture, were found large quantities of straw and linen stuff, arranged so as easily to take fire ; these had been also set fire to in five different places. The murderers must have been known to M. Corneille, for he appears to have opened the door to them, which being shut at eight o'clock, all access was impracticable from with out. On the next day the door was found locked, the assassins having taken the key, in the hope that all en trance to the burning house being rendered impossible, t tlte,e e t d tro _ea t t h re . hs of their thr e e v i c ti ms wou ld b e attr ib u t e d to eir T d h i e s i c r ov o t w ry n ; ex fo c r es a s li o o f ie ca a u p t e i r o t n u , re h s ohwaevvinegr, been thus carefully closed, the fire had gone out for want of air, the straw and linen alone being destroyed, while the bodies of the murdered persons presented but slight burns. It was affecting to witness the grief of the two survivors, so suddenly rendered orphans. The son has almost lost his reason: he carries a crucifix on his heart, and affirms that the image of Christ has revealed to him the names of the assassins of his father, beseeching the Procureur du Roi to allow him to do justice on them himself. Two persons have already been arrested on suspicion. by a separate and independent company, but with power to sell the line, or lease it to the London and North• Western. The terms of the agreement had been ap proved by the proprietors of the Birmingham and Lich field line, and he felt assured that the proprietors of the London and North-Western would find it to be to their intere2t to ratify the contract. The line was one of con siderable importance in point of local traffic, and with some alterations from the original draft, by which the route :ay more in the neighbourhood of Sutton Cole field, it would become still more extensively useful. The line would, indeed, be a continuation of the pre sent company's line to Manchester, in connexion with their other lines in that district, and thus they would be able t) accommodate a greater amount of traffic than otherwise they could well manage. He therefore begged to move that the agreement between the two companies be confirmed. The resolution was unanimously passed. The CHAIRMAN again said that in consequence of the loss of the Warwickshire and London project, it became necessary that they should endeavour to work the line from Rugby to Leamington. The present company had taken half the shares in the Rugby and Leamington Company, and they would now have to consider the pro priety of sanctioning a transfer of the other half, so that the line might become the entire property of the Lon don and North-Western Company. He was sure he need not say anything about the importance of the traffic on this line, knowing as they did that the Leamington line was one of the mast valuable for passenger traffic in the kingdom. The Rugby and Leamington Company was formed of 360,000 shares, 180,000 of which they had at par, but had been obliged to pay 4/. per share premium for the other half, which was no doubt a large price, but in view of the extent of the traffic was after all but a sma ll sum. He moved that the agreement for the pur chase of this line be also sanctioned. The resolution was carried. Mr. Richard Cadley, and a few other gentlemen, having come into the room rather late, owing to a mis understanding as to the time of meeting, the chairman recapitulated his statement, and mentioned the business done. Mr. Cadley said he was perfectly satisfied with the resolutions, and, indeed, his confidence in the di rectors of the company was such that he would have had no hesitation in agreeing to them on their simple recommendation. CHESTER AND BIRKENHEAD.-RESIGNATION --- - - IRELAND. REPEAL ASSOCIATION. DUBLIN, Nov. 2.—The members of this body assem bled to-day at one o'clock iu Conciliation-hall. The attendance was rather larger in the body of the hall and members' seats, but the galleries were thinly attended by ladies, probably owing to the state of the weather. The increased auditory was, of course, the result of the usual announcement—" That the Liberator would attend." At the appointed hour Mr. O'Connell, M.P., accompanied by Mr. R. D, Browne, M.P., Mr. J. O'Connell, Mr. O'Neill Daunt, Captain Broderick, &c., entered the hall, and was warmly received. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman appeared to be in rather feeble health, and looked extremely careworn, notwithstanding his tempo rary cessation from public labours. The proceedings of the day, notwithstanding the pre sence of the alpha and omega of Old Ireland, were more than ordinarily stupid, and were unrelieved by any feature of novelty save the fact of Mr. O'Connell having fairly drawn the sword upon his quondam ally Mr. Smith O'Brien ; and, as both leaders are now in open hostility towards each other, there is no doubt that the public will derive no small share of instruction from the future controversies between the two respective champions of moral and physical force. After some dull preliminary business had been waded through, Mr. O'CONNELL rose to make the speech of the day. He said that he had intended to address them at great length with reference to the Cork resolution, and to dis cuss in many words the real position of all parties ; but he was unable to do so, for his heart was too full, and his mind too much engaged with the misery of the Irish people, who wanted food and employment.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. O'Connell) couid think of nothing else. He was asked, did he know the real state the country was in ? His answer was, that he knew her position well— knew her dangers, and could tell the gentry of Ireland and the Government that it was absurd to imagine that six or eight months would see them over their difficul ties. He was sorry to pronounce it as his candid opinion that they were but at the commencement of their horrors, and that if a beneficent Providence did not guide the Government, it was impossible to say what the posi tion of the country might be in 12 months. Famine was almost universal ; still he was rejoiced that even out of evil good should come, and that the wretched state of Ire land had been the means of circulating a feeling which never before existed—a feeling which he had an oppor tunity of observing personally in the south of Ireland. He (Mr. O'Connell) had attended a meeting in Fermoy, ' in the county of Cork, on Friday week, and he there observed clergymen of all creeds and gentry of all creeds and classes of politics—(Year, hear)—joining together to alleviate the universal distress which prevailed, and joining together in a deputation to the Lord-Lieutenant to claim succour from the Government. They had formed this deputation, and had an interview of three hours on the previous Friday with his Excellency, who was most anxious to do everything in his power to carry out their wishes.—(Hear.) In addition to that, they had gone to the Board of Works, after leaving the Castle, to pray for assistance, and there also they were , well re ceived.—(Hear, hear.) Indeed he believed he was justi fied in saying that the Board of Works were ready to work for Ireland to the utmost of their power, and even to work on a Sunday, as they had lately been doing, and a better Sunday's work they could not be engaged in.— (" Hear," and cheers.) He stated this, for he was under a misconception as to the Board of Works. He now saw that they were not to blame for any delay which had taken place, as it was altogether owing to the smallness of their staff, and he was happy to say they were doing all they could to have that staff enlarged. They had brought over a great number of Sappers and Miners from England, but still there were many yet required, for the misery of Ireland was great—greater, he was afraid, than could be re lieved as they could wish.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. O'Connell) had suggested the appointment of a national committee; he was sorry it was not appointed to assist the Government and Board of Works, and he thought they would have to nominate one; but he would not say anything more about it then as his doing so might be the means of preventing some persons joining them, from the impression that it was a political movement.— (Cheers.) It was stated that he had not done anything for the country under her present awful position. Now, the fact was, that he was occupied day and night in considering what ought to be done, and, as far as his own district, he thought he bad made arrangements which would prevent want at least for some time.— (Loud and continued cries of " Hear ' hear.") His great anxiety was that the people should know their position, and assist the Board of Works, and say or do nothing which might prevent the officers of that establishment doing their duty. He (Mr. O'Connell) had heard with regret that in the county of Clare an engineer had been badly treated, and he would call on the people to avoid all collision with the authorities, and not to attempt to stop food in its transit through the country, for the result would be, if they persisted in such conduct, that those officers would resign their situa tions, and then relief would be withhold. There was no sacrifice he (Mr. O'Connell) would not make to render himself useful at such an awful crisis, and he had made some sacrifices.—(" Hear," and cheers.) He had left his native mountains to assist the Government to feed the people, and, although in his 72d year, and requiring rest after a laborious session, he did so cheerfully; and if he were not as strong and healthy as he had been, it was not to be wondered at at his years, and considering the exertions he had gone through; but, thank God, he was still young enough and healthy enough to see the Parliament restored to College-green. He (Mr. O'Con nell) sincerely believed that the Earl of Besborough was most anxious to do all he could to give food and employment, and he regretted he was deprived of very valuable assistance by the exclusion of clergy men from relief committees—for clergymen of all creeds were excluded ; no doubt the lords-lieutenant of coun ties had the power of putting them on, but, as they were all Tories, they were not likely to nominate Roman Catholic curates, who were so competent to give advice and assistance.—(Hear, hear.) There was another matter he (Mr. O'Connell) wished to notice ; he alluded to task work. He was a strong advocate for work being done by task, because then a poor man could get his children to assist him, and he was happy to say the Lord Lieutenant had promised to adopt it, and said he would issue directions to the paymasters, under the Act, to pay as much as possible for the work at once, and the balance as soon as it could be ascertained.—(Hear, hear.) It was perfectly clear that the Earl of Besborough knew the position of Ireland ; but he was obliged to say, that he thought Lord John Russell's letter equally showed that he knew nothing about her position, for he had written as if he alto gether forgot the union, the horrors of absentee ism, and the state of the country in a commer cial point of view. He had been taunted for not sug gesting a plan in the Association. Now, he had sug gested one in its proper place, in the county which he represented in Parliament—(Hear, hear, and cheers) — and had it laid before his Excellency; and he hoped those who approved of it in other parts of the country would follow it up, and show the Government they were in earnest.—(Hear, hear.) The country was in a horri ble state. It was only a few days back that his son paid 171. for a ton of meal; on the day after he paid 201. for another ton; and on the next he could not get one to pnrchase for love or money, and this was owing to the want of food in the country, and they should enforce on the Government the necessity of procuring it at once. There was another matter he could not avoid alluding to, and that was the conduct of the Young Ireland party, and he was happy to say that they bad openly severed all connexion with the Association, if any existed, by their own act.—(Hear.) Mr. O'Brien, the first who left tha' Hall, and the leader of them, had written a letter to the editor of the Nation, setting up an agitation for himself (Cries of " Hear, hear")—and he (Mr. O'Connell) hoped he would be successful in his virtuous inclinations. —(Hear, hear, and laughter.) He proposed that the leaders of the Young Ireland body should join in a pha lanx to address the country in the Nation every week. Now, he (Mr. O'Connell) thanked the young gentlemen for the same—(Hear, hear) —they had called themselves a phalanx—and they could, therefore, not blame him if he said they were a phalanx—(Laughter)—and he would wish the phalanx every luck to go on, week after week, until it increased in ardour, and arrived at the bursting point—when it would fly like a soda-water cork.— (Hear, hear.) He blamed Mr. 0 Brien for his physical force doctrines, and could not agree with him. In his letter he had pretty tolerably praised himself and abused others ; but he (Mr. O'Connell) did not care for abuse—he only hoped that God would forgive him for the praise he had once bestowed in the same quarter.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and cheering.) That gentleman had stated that the moral force repeaters would not resist against aggression, but such was not the case. They never had put forward such a doctrine, as would be seen by referring to the resolution of the Ist of July. The Learned Gentleman concluded by saying, that for the future there was no possibility of a reconciliation. Captain BRODERICK, in alluding to an article on In dian corn, which appeared in the Times of last week, called on Lord John Russell to open the ports. Mr. O'CoNNELL announced his intention of standing for the county of Cork at the next election, stating that he would leave Dublin, which was safe, to others. At half past three o'clock the rent was announced to be 57/. LETTER OF THE LORD-LIEUTENANT.-SUS- dangers the lives of the officers and overseers, and deters the poor and peaceable inhabitants from labouring ou the works. " The Lord-Lieutenant desires most earnestly to point out to the people the serious consequences to them selves from such a course of conduct. The obstruction to officers in the discharge of their duties creates in the first instance confusion and alarm; it has the ulterior effect, already apparent, of necessarily suspending all further progress in the works; and, combined with the outrages committed on private persons and property, must preclude any attempt for the continued employment of the destitute poor. The works in the district have in consequence been suspended. Ample arrangements have been made, and all the powers placed at the disposal of the executive will be exerted for preserving the lives and properties of the peaceable inhabitants, repressing outrage, and bringing to justice the disturbers of the public peace, and the perpetrators of crime. But his Excellency would hope that the good sense of the people will resume its influ ence—that they will see the folly and the crime they are guilty of in thus wantonly interfering with the means provided for the support of the destitute in this time of distress, and that he will have the satisfaction of receiving full assurance of their return to a better course of conduct —of their cordial acquiescence in the arrangements made for their employment, and of their determination to refrain from further obstruction or injury to persons engaged in laying out or superintending the public works. " His Excellency will then gladly direct the immediate resumption of those works, in the conviction that they will prove the means of preserving the people from that destitution and ruin which a perseverance in their past line of conduct must, he fears, inevitably produce. " Dublin Castle, Nov. 2, 1846. " By his Excellency's command, " T. N. REDINGTON." The Clare Journal, received this day, gives the follow ing account of further outrages in that county:— " Emus, Nov. 2.—Notices are now posted round the places where the horses of those who brought corn to market had been shot, cautioning every person against valuing the horses, which they think necessary, to enable the owners to get presentment off the county. The parties here are shortsighted in this view, as the grand jury, as well as the ratepayers, will no doubt meet this attempt at intimidation by taking the owners' valuation. " We understand that the mills of Mr. Wallnutt, at Scariff, were broken into on Friday night, and a quan tity of provisions carried away, and some more thrown into the streets and destroyed. " A party of men entered the house of the Rev. Mr. Brady, and desired that he should forgive a year's rent to his tenants, and sell his corn at a reduced price. " The house of Mr. Reddan was entered, we have heard, in search of arms. " A horse was shot lately belonging to Mr. Frost, near Rossmanaher, because previously being at Limerick with corn. Mr. Frost first offered his corn at Sixmile• bridge for Is. 6d. per stone, but being unable to sell it there had it sent to Limerick. _ " The gentlemen of the Newmarket district assembled at the Sessions-house on Friday, and have adopted such measures that they will dispose of wheat in the town at Is. 6d. per stone, and of barley is. They have also, we understand, sent for a mill, and will grind corn for the poor at id. per stone, being half-price." THE CORN MARKET.—At our Corn Exchange this day there was a dull market, and a further decline of Is. per barrel in wheat, making the reduction 2s. since this day week. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LEASING OF THE SOUTH WALES TO THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. The following are the heads of a provisional agree ment entered into between the directors of the Great Western and South Wales Railway Companies, to be submitted to meetings that have been specially convened for Friday next, for the consideration of their respec tive proprietors:- 1. That, subject to confirmation as aforesaid, the Great Western Railway Company will undertake to work the line while partially opened, and to pay over to the credit of the South Wales Railway Company the net proceeds, after deducting all working expenses, and interest, and depreciation on stock, &c., employed. 2. The line from Gloucester to Fishguard, and from Newport to Monmouth, being completed and opened, a lease in perpetuity is to be made thereof to the Great Western Railway Company, subject as hereinafter men• timed, they paying rent five per cent. per annum on the amount expended (as also hereinafter explained), in - cluding interest during the progress of the works, as al lowed by Act of Parliament, without any division of profit during the first five years of the lease; but after the lapse of that period, or so soon afterwards as the line may make clear profits over and above the amount which the Great Western Company have guaranteed, or may have paid to the South Wales Railway Company for any antecedent period under this lease, they are to pay over half the net profits which may accrue during the remainder of the lease, in addition to the rate of five per cent. per annum on the money expended. 3. The lease to terminate at the end of ten years (ex cept as herein provided) by an amalgamation of the two companies ; the rate of such amalgamation being fixed by the actual not earnings of the two lines for the two preceding years in proportion to their respective share capital and debt ; but if no profit shall be divisible be tween the two companies, the lease is then to continue until a profit shall have been divisible for two years, when the amalgamation is to be carried out as before specified, upon the earnings of these two years. 4. The commencement of the lease not to be effected by the-non-completion of the Pembroke and Haverford west branches, it being understood that the South Wales Company are to execute those, and in.dude them in the lease, out of the capital sum or debentures here inafter referred to, if sufficient for that purpose. 5. If the line of the Monmouth and Hereford Railway between Gloucester and Monmouth, belonging to the Great Western Railway Company shall not be com pleted by the time the whole South Wales line between Gloucester and Fishguard are ready for use, the lease shall commence from that time, although the portion between Newport and Monmouth may not be then com pleted, upon the express condition that such portion shall be ready for opening simultaneously with that between Gloucester and Monmouth. 6. The guarantee of 5 per cent, is to extend over the expenditure of share capital not exceeding 3,000,0001., and the Great Western Company is also to defray inte rest upon so much of the additional 1,000,0001. as may be required to be raised by debentures for the general purposes of the company, the said expenditure compris ing prevision of all necessary works, buildings, stations, sidings, and every other accommodation needful for carrying on the business of the line, excepting only the locomotive plant of engines, carriages, waggons, &c., which are to be supplied by the Great Western Railway Company. 7. The Great Western Company shall have the option to supply the additional money, holding the debentures, or to become parties by way of guarantee for the loan, so as to secure the money at the lowest rate of interest. 8. In order to prevent any disputes or litigation with respect to the amount of receipts or revenue on the rail way, or with respect to the proper deductions for ex penses, &c., an accountant is to be chosen between the two boards, sworn to keep an accurate account of the separate receipts and revenue of the South Wales line, whose declaration shall be final and conclusive; and the working expenses, interest, and depreciation on stock, &c., are to be calculated on some fair and equitable basis, to be determined between the two boards of directors, and the amount ascertained by arbitration. 9. The consent of the Great Western Company is to be considered necessary to all alterations or deviations of the line and branches at present sanctioned by Parlia ment, which may requre fresh Parliamentary powers ; also to the construction of any future extensions or branches, and to the purchase or lease of railroads, tramroads, or other public works not at present autho rised, excepting the Ballo Pill Railway, which has been purchased, and is to be included in the lease of the South Wales line. The amount of expenditure fixed by the Act on such works or purchases, after being sanc tioned by the Great Western Company, is to be added to the capital already agreed upon, and the interest on the same to be guaranteed in the like manner by the Great Western Railway Company. 10. A general arbitration clause is to be introduced into the agreement between the two companies, for the purpose of settling all matters of difference between them, without having resort to any court of law or equity, excepting to enforce the award of such arbitra tioas- -11. The agreement and lease, with all usual and ne cessary covenants, to be prepared by some eminent and impartial conveyancer; and in cases of dispute as to the true intent and meaning of the parties, or as to the equitable adjustment of any point which may not have been specifically provided for, the same is to be referred to the absolute and final decision of the Attorney or Solicitor General for the time being, or of some person to be appointed by them or one of them. The seals of the two companies are to be affixed to such deed or deeds, it being competent to either company to procure the confirma tion of the said lease and agreement by Parliamentary enactment, whenever the occasion may offer. OPENING OF THE EAST ANGLIAN, FROY LYNN TO DOWNHAM AND NARBOROUGH. No event, for many years, has exceeded in importance to Lynn and West Norfolk, that of the opening of the East Anglian Railway, which has just taken place. To the town of Lynn this event is, in every point of view, of great importance. Its leading inhabitants have, by their unanimity, singleness of purpose, and perse verance, commenced and partly carried out a direct rail way communication to Ely, the midland counties, and the metropolis ; and also to Dereham, in the heart of the county, and from thence, by other lines, to the eastern coast. Lynn, from its advantageous situation, has always been a commercial town, though tho trade of late years has been chiefly confined to timber, corn, and coals. A writer of the reign of Richard I. calls Lynn "a noble city," and "a city of note for its trade and commerce ;" and it may be a question whether it was not at one time the second port in England ; and even now its merchants and traders transact no trifling amount of business. The customs dues are between 60,000/. and 70,0001. a-year. The trade in coals in 1843, was about 150,000 tons ; in 1844, 197,000 tons ; and in 1845, 302,000 tons ; showing a great and progressive increase. There has been, also, a considerable increase in the corn business every year. The Tuesday cattle market is increasing every month, and there have been in it 7,000 sheep, 600 beasts, and 1,200 pigs, for sale on one day. It is the chief market for pigs in the eastern counties. The increase in this market is in a great mew sure owing to the reduction of the tolls on sheep to one half what they were some years ago. At the two great sheep and cattle fairs held here, there have been as many as 15,000 sheep and 2,000 beasts, besides pigs and horses offered for sale. At present there is not half room enough in the market-place for stock, and something must be speedily done to enlarge it. The opening of two railways from the town in different di rections will, as has been already proved, greatly in crease the number of dealers and the quantity of stock every week. In many other respects the new railways will be highly beneficial to the port, and the western division of the county, particularly in supplying coals to the latter, hitherto very dear in the winter time. The navigation of the narrow circuitous rivers in the west is very uncertain, being effected by droughts in the summer and frosts in the winter. By ensuring the rapidity of transit both for passengers and goods, by facilitating the general intercourse and trade of the country, and by promoting drainage, both rail ways will be a very great advantage. When the lines are completed, merchants in this town will have the best of communication with six different counties, viz., Nor folk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, Bed fordshire, and Northampton, and there appears to be every probability that Lynn will again become a great commercial place. It seems only necessary to make the harbour more complete, to deepen and widen the chan nel, and to erect convenient wharfs, to afford every faci lity for a most extensive trade. These improvements are necessary, in order to ensure to the port the full ad. vantages of the railways ; for unless large sea-borne vessels can come up at all times, and land their cargoes with facility, the natural advantages of the port cannot be so fully turned to account. At present there is abun dant room for harbour improvements, which will no doubt be made. There is a branch railway from the harbour already formed. It commences close to the waterside, and runs along, skirting the south side of the town, and joining the main line about a mile and a-half from the station. This branch will be a great advan tage in facilitating the unloading of vessels, and the re moval of their cargoes. The erection of warehouses upon the modern improved plan would tend to increase the railway traffic. New landing places are wanted, and many other harbour accommodations, which rail way traffic will speedily render indispensable. The port, or harbour, it is said, might be rendered capable of ac commodating above 1,000 vessels, being about two miles in length from the Freebridge to the North Farm, and if dredgers were set to work, might be soon made superior to any along the eastern coast. There would then be a vast increase in the corn and coal trade of the port. The railways will not only increase its commerce, but also in crease the number of visitors to view the antiquities of the town, its ruins, churches, chapels, public buildings, and ancient military defences, which are well worthy of inspection. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN. BIRMINGHAM, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—This after noon a special meeting of the proprietors of the London and North-Western Company was held at the Queen's Hotel here, with a view to the ratification of the agree ment entered into by the directors for the purchase of the Birmingham, Lichfield and Manchester, and Rugby and Warwick Railways. Mr. George Carr Glyn was in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said the sanction of the proprietors would in the first instance be requested to the contract that had been entered into with the Birmingham, Lich field, and Manchester Railway Company—a project which had been carried successfully through Parliament OF THE CHAIRMAN AND HIS BROTHER. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY. —A special general meeting of the shareholders in the Chester and Birkenhead Rail way took place at twelve o'clock to-day, for the purpose of authorising and empowering the directors to raise, by way of mortgage, the sum of 100,0001. to be employed in the construction of the extension line from Grange lane station to the dock upon Wallasey Pool. A con. siderable body of proprietors were present. Mr. William Jackson, chairman of the company, presided. The CHAIRMAN proposed a formal resolution giving the directors the necessary power to raise the loan. At the last general meeting, held about a fortnight ago, said the chairman, in continuation, the directors were authorised to proceed with the extension line, and to carry out other arrangements. At that period he had it in contemplation to take the step he was about to take ; but he considered it best to pause until the present meet ing, in order to see whether he could be useful in carry ing out the arrangement with the trustees of the Duke of Bridgewater. There existed, he was happy to believe, no impediment now to the whole arrangement being carried out, namely, the extension of the line to the docks, and agreements with the Cheshire Junction party, the Commissioners of Birkenhead, and the trus tees of the Bridgewater estate. But, at the same time, he must explain to the proprietors, and he wished to do it as gently as possible, as he desired to give no offence, that parties rather personally opposed to him had the power in themselves of carrying out these several arrangements, inasmuch as they represented all the differents interests. Ile should, therefore, be consulting the best interests of the proprietors by retiring from the direction, and he must no longer be considered as acting in the capacity of a director. After what he had stated, the proprietors would agree with him, that when great interests were concerned, private feeling should not be allowed to in terpose, and he must candidly state that at present those interests would be best managed by those who had the power, which he had not, of carrying out the arrange - clients. If those arrangements were carried out, they would certainly be to the ultimate benefit of the com pany. He thanked the proprietors for their courtesy on this, and their many acts of kindness on former occa sions; and he hoped they would all enjoy the prosperity to which he had ever thought the line would arrive. The Chairman concluded by moving the resolution. Mr. CHRISTOPHER BENTHAM seconded the resolution, and it was unanimously carried. The meeting was about to separate, when Mr. J. S. JACIISON, the Chairman's brother, rose, and with some emotion, said he should follow the steps of his brother, and resign his seat as one of the directors. He had great satisfaction in the belief that he had always conscientiously endeavoured to do his duty whilst sitting at the board. No notice whatever was taken, either by directors or proprietors, of these somewhat extraordinary proceed ings; and the meeting separated without the customary courtesy of thanks being tendered to the Chairman. It is said that the chair at the board will be offered to Mr. Wm. Potter. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. BRISTOL, Nov Lams 4.

OPENING OF THE PORTS. -- The decision of the Cabinet not to open th e p or t s f o r the free admission o f foreign grain is satisf ac t ory t o a n parties in Liverpool , with the exception of the speculators and a few extreme free trade advocate s . Th e open ing of the ports would not influonce one single cargo to this country, nor re duce the poor man's loaf the smallest fraction of our leas coin, but would for the moment have given an Ha pulse to speculation, and have put the amount of duty into the pockets Of the present holders and foreign growers. The fire in the corn-market seems subsiding, and prices in Liverpool are somewhat easier this week, with a slackening in the demand ; and as the shipments from America come forward prices will, no doubt, re cede, even if the farmers continue to keep back supplies. Speculation, and not the wants of the trade, is the cause of the late rapid advance.—Li6opool PENSION OF PUBLIC WORKS. DUBLIN, Nov. 3.—ln consequence of the continuance of the system of obstruction and intimidation in a part of the county of Clare, the Lord• Lieutenant has issued the following important letter, which appears in the Dub lin Evening Post of this afternoon "TO THE INHABITANTS OF THE BARONY OF UPPER TULLA, COUNTY CLARE, AND THE ADJOINING DIS- TRICTS. " The Lord-Lieutenant has learned, with the deepest concern, that occurrences have taken place in the barony of Tulla, and part of the adjacent districts, which have obstructed the operation of those means of employment for the labouring poor in their present distress which the Legislature intended to afford. Large presentments have been made for public works in that barony, a great proportion of which (exceeding 20,0001.) has already re ceived the approval of the proper authorities. " His Excellency looked with confidence to the com mencement and progress of those works, as affording to the industrious and well-disposed the means of imme diate employment, and a prospect of continued support during the approaching winter.

THE ARMY.—The first division, consisting of three troops of the 6th Dragoon Guards (Carabineers), arrived in Dublin from Liverpofil by steam conveyance on Satur day morning last, and marched on Monday for New bridge, where the regiment is to be stationed. DEATH OF LADY MARSH.—November 2, at her house in Merrion-square, after a severe and protracted illness, which she bore with singular patience and resignation, Anne, wife of Sir Henry Marsh, Bart. GALWAY, Nov. 2.—There is a national school at Monivae, in this county, which, notwithstanding the opposition of the Roman Catholic clergy, has flourished for some years under the liberal patronage of the pro prietor of the village, and the care of a very efficient and pains-taking teacher. The numbers of children in at tendance vary, according to the season, from 120 to 150; but during the last month, the school room has been crowded beyond all former experience, insomuch that it has been found necessary to close the doors against several new claimants for admission. So unusual a circumstance is ascribed by the school master to the distress of the parents, who being unable to supply a breakfast to their children, are anxious to remove them out of their sight for some hours of the day into a place of warmth and rest. He states that there is a remarkable change in the ability and inclination of his pupils in general to apply themselves to the business of the school. They have become dull and listless; and many of them, when dismissed in the afternoon to crawl to their homes, actually " faint by the wayside." A more affecting proof of the lamentable condition of our rural population could scarcely be produced. MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS. MONMOUTH. For a series of years the Tories have monopolised the representation of this borough at the municipal board, and have hitherto succeeded in electing their men, chiefly through the agency of the house of Beaufort. For the last two years the burgesses have resolved to get rid of their political thraldom, and by calling public meetings antecedent to the annual election, have nomi nated their own candidates, and have succeeded in elect ing the whole of them on each occasion. On Monday last the candidates publicly nominated were triumphantly elected—the numbers being at the close of the poll as follows: Mr. Thomas Swift, merchant (L) 121 Mr. R. Burton, builder ... (L) 93 Mr. Thomas Powell, draper (L) 90 Mr. W. Williams, grocer ... (L) 88 Mr. James Davies, grocer ... 32 Mr. E. Phillips, merchant ... 30 Mr. J. Pugh, draper ... 27 The first four were consequently declared duly elected, Not a third of the burgesses polled, otherwise the ma jority would have been considerably greater. MELCOMBE REGIS WARD.

PORTSMOUTH, WEDN E SDAY.-Th e . Resistance troop ship, Captain Patey, arrived at Spithead this morning, from the Cape of Good Hope. Her dates are, Simon's Bay, Sept. 5, St. Helena, Sept. 18, and Ascension, Sept. 28. Lieutenant John Stevens and Colin Douglas, and Mr. Taylor, master, all of the Childers, 16, Commander Pitman, came home invalided. A few other invalids from the squadron, and a mail, is all that the Resistance has brought ;no troops. Having left only the day after the Sappho, the Resistance has brought no later news from the frontier. The Apollo troop-ship, Commander Radcliffe, whose narrow escape from total wreck we reported on the ar rival of the Sappho, was refitting as expeditiously as possible, and would sail, if possible, on the 6th of Sept., for Algoa Boy, with the 73d Regiment, to reinforce the Governor on the frontier. She left St. Helena on the same day she arrived. Just before getting under way, however, the Waterwitch, 12, Commander T. Francis Birch, arrived from a cruise, bringing in for adjudication a flue prize, full of slaves. There were no other men-of war at St. Helena when the Resistance left. She merely touched at Ascension, which island was healthy, but turtle was very scarce ; there were not half a dozen in the ponds. The Actaeon, 26, Captain Mansel (senior officer on the station) ; the Cnique steam prize, in charge of a warrant officer ; and the Tortoise store and guard ship, Commander Morrell, were the only men-of war at the island. The Resistance is ordered into this harbour to be paid off, and re-commissioned immediately. Captain Patey, an experienced and gallant officer, was promoted from the rank of commander, on the 27th of June last, by Lord Ellenborough. Captain Sir John Gordon Sinclair, Bart., was entered yesterday on the books of the Victory as Superintendent of the Packet Service, at Southampton, in the room of Captain Ellice, whose term of service has expired. An order from the Board of Ordnance was promul gated this morning for the immediate supply of 25 rounds of cartridges, with shot, for each of the 32-pounders mounted upon the fortifications of these towns. Six 68-pounder guns are to be immediately mounted on the King's Ravelin Battery in this garrison. All the guns (sixteen 68's) are also to be mounted on the lower tier of Blockhouse Fort as soon as possible; and all the guns at present in this garrison are to be mounted as soon as the carriages can bo got ready. FATAL ACClDENT.—Yesterday Mr. Carttar held an inquest at the., Coach and Horses, Blackheath-llill, on the body of Mr. John Scrivener, who met his death under the following circumstances :—Edward Cobley, son-in-law of the deceased, and a floorcloth printer, in the employ of Messrs. Cobbett and Co., Deptford-bridge, deposed that himself and others were engaged in raising a piece of floor cloth, by means of tackle, when the rope slipped, and the roller fell against another roller weigh ing upwards of 4 cwt., which forced it against deceased, who was knocked down, and the entire weight came upon him. Deceased was conveyed home, where he died on Monday night, from internal injuries. It appearing that the occurrence was purely accidental, a verdict to that effect wile returned. WORKS by ROBERT .7.
