PROVIDENCE ROW NIGIIT REFUGE, FO HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise wou ld have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railwa y arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lo d g in g s, with Su ppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young wo men, children, and orph ans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will he required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want.

Monday was a fine, breezy day, but no carting of any grain could be proceeded with. Our advices on that day from Cornwall were:--" Our harvest is not quite finished ; there arc many fields of barley yet to save; but the wheat is all up in good condition, and a full average crop. Many sam ples are very fine. The greatest portion- of the bar ley is saved well, and I think an average crop, al though it varies very much. Some of the best soils and well cultivated have very heavy crops and others very thin. Oats are considered a good crop, and I think we have no reason to complain, but have cause for thankfulness." Tuesday was a thoroughly wet, disastrous day for the northern harvest, and nothing could be cut or carted. From Lancashire it was stated: "The weather in the interval since our last has been very stormy, checking harvest opera tions to a great extent, and although some of the corn is being carried, it must be in a very unsatis factory state." From the East Biding of Yorkshire our advices ran :•—" Weather continues very unset tled, with more or less rain almost daily; on Sunday last it poured down in torrents, and but little pro gress has been made with harvest work. The tem perature is cool, and we do not hear of much sprout ing. The bulk of the corn in this district is still in the fields, and what portion has been stacked can only be in very moderate condition, and quite unfit for present consumption." Heavy rain fell on Wed nesday morning up to 11 a.m.; afterwards it was more faVourable, but no work in the fields could be proceeded with. From Lincolnshire it was remarked : " The weather since Saturday has been very unset tled, and has retarded harvest operations in this district. From Bedfordshire :—" The late clamp weather has greatly retarded harvest work." From a neighbouring district :—" The -- heavy rains of the last week haye flooded much of our low lands, doing considerable damage to the crops not yet secured.", There are scarcely exceptions to great falls of rain since the commencement of the week. From the west coast of Scotland it was stated, " After two or three fine days the weather has be come most unfavourable for the harvest, heavy rain having fallen during last night, and this day is damp and sultry." From the the coast, " Much corn is cut in the Lothians, but very little secured. The barleys, as might be expected from the wet weather, are in poor condition and dark coloured. ' New oats are damp, and somewhat weathered. The weather has been wet and broken during the past week, with the exception of one or two days." Thurs day morning was thick and threatening, but it held up until about 2 p.m., with heavy showers after wards, and very heavy at 8 p.m. On that day from Essex we bear of " More rain, much of the barley is still uncarted." From Warwickshire it was observed : —" In this district we have had another week of very wet and showery weather, which has damaged the unhoused corn to a considerable extent, and it is only here and there that a field is cleared. Bar ley, wheat, and oats are becoming stained, and there are some instances of sprouting, although happily the cool temperature has tended to prevent the latter damage becoming serious at present." From Suf folk, near the coast, it was stated :—" The weather during the past week has been showery and gloomy, and the latter harvest is thereby greatly protracted. A cold wet spring never yet produced an abundant wheat crop, nor will there be one this year ; and our yield of barley is equally complained of. The season greatly resembles that of 1853, and we may see an important change in the grain trade before Christmas next." Friday was a more favourable day, little rain having fallen. From Lincolnshire our advices stated :—" We have dreadful weather yet for harvest work, and what corn is now carried is in very poor condition—not, I hope, sprouted, but damp and cold, and quite unfit for imme diate use. Luckily a fine windy day generally follows the rain, so that sprouting is kept in check ; but a deal of grain in the northern part of this country is now in a critical state. No carting to-day, and yesterday only a little, and that in bad condition." Saturday was a thoroughly wet day : wind south-cast, varying to the north-east, proving a disastrous close for this week, and the northern harvest is certainly now in jeopardy, as is often the case when procrastinated by the season into the month of September. Our next advices will we fear give a worse account than any heretofore of the crops, as spurting and black barley may be general where still in the fields. The spring-sown beans are nearly all exposed to the present rains.—Mark-lane Express. PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED sd. were necessary t t meet current expenses and pay for extensions of mains, and this sum the Board hoped would be furnishe 1 by'the proprietors on debentures. The directors wer(• sanguine that if the same rates of progress were maintained for another year, and the vexed question of .the public lighting satisfactorily settled, a pr , )sperous condition for the company might fairly be anticipated. The CHAT RMAN, in moving the adoption of the re port and accounts, said the company had met with an amount of bad faith on the part of town authori ties which was unparalleled. He believed, however, that if the shareholders would only support the board, and find the necessary capital for carrying on the work s, the difficulties in the way would be surmounted ; because the Turkish people were be ginning to appreciate the advantages of gas, and the demand for private lights increased weekly. The directors were determined to do all in their power to secure economy, and among other things had not charged anything as remuneration for their services. (Hear, hear.) The Hon. HOWE BROWNE seconded the motion, and explained that the sum of £2,750 was wanted because the public lights had not been paid for. The report and accounts were unanimously adopted. At the conclusion of a long discussion the follow ing gentlemen were elected a friendly committee of consultation to confer with the board, in order to strengthen the company's position in Smyrna : Messrs. Coles, Knight, Oxenham, Williams, and Van Voorst. A Tote of thanks to the directors and chairman closed the proceedings. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Sept. 10. Accounts have reached the Daily Express of a terrible accident at the residence of Mr. C. Cobbe, Newbridge, by which five lives were lost : " A number of labourers wore engaged in clearing out a tank of liquid manure, when, having reached a thick sedi ment at the bottom, they proceeded to shovel it out. The first man who descended into the pit and stirred it in stantly fell dead, being suffocated by the effluvia, and four of his companions who went successively down to assist shared his fate. Their names are Luke Flynn, Jas.',Vren, Michael Shannon, and Patrick Smith. Laurence Shannon, Michael's father, narrowly escaped being numbered with the victims. Seeing his son lying in the pit, the old man could not be prevented from attempting to rescue him, but he had scarcely set his foot on the ladder when he was overcome by the ex halation, but providentially fell over at the top, and medical assistance having been obtained he recovered his conscious ness, but is still suffering from the effects of the foul gases. The five poor men perished in as many minutes, the light of life being quenched instantaneously as they entered the pits. A noble instance of courage and self-possession in con nexion with this accident deserves to be recorded. Warned by the terrible fate which had befallen their companions, the men who were at the top of the tank were afraid to ven ture down to recover the dead bodies. A young fellow named Smith, however, volunteered to descend. Some persons endeavoured to dissuade him, but he said, know how I'll do it,' and, procuring a rote, ho fastened it round his body, and inhaling a supply of pure air, he suspended respiration until he descended rapidly and drew up one of the bodies. His example was quickly followed by another man, by whose aid they were all brought up. They were removed to Donabata, to which place the party of labourers belonged, and there await a coroner's inquest." Yesterday a heavy gale from the S.S.E. broke over Kingstown and the coast, torrents of drench ing rain caning with the wind throughout the entire after-part of the day. The sea in Dublin Bay was very heavy. The Marquis of Headfort, presiding last week at a dinner in connexion with the Headfort Estates Cattle Show, made the following remarks on the land question : " My motto for my tenantry has always been 'Live and let live'— (cheers)—and I think that principle has always been carried out on this estate by my agent. (Hear, hear.) A bill affecting the tenure of laud was introduced by the late Government. At first, misled by some of the speeches against the bill, I was induced to believe that it was a bill for making landlords and tenants change places—(laugh ter) —which I had a natural objection'' to do, but when I came to look into the bill itself I really could find nothing objectionable in its leading principle. That principle is simply that if a landlord ejects a tenant at will ho must compensate him for improvements that have added to the letting value of his holding. Now that seems to me simple justice- -not a confiscation of the rights of property at all, but a recognition of them. (Loud cheers.)" In alluding to emigration, Lord Headfort read an extract from a newspaper, showing that many emi grants were returning to Ireland, owing to the dis appointment of their hopes in America, and ex pressed his hope that this would check the drain upon the population of the country, which other wise might have moved too far. After a few re marks on the subject of the cattle plague, and re- . commending cleanliness and sulphur fumigation as a preventive, his lordship concluded amid prolonged cheering. _ _ Mr. T. Dalton, his lordship's agent, in proposing the health of the tenantry, said he did not believe a word of the fashionable theory about the incorrigible savagery of the Irish character. Ile said The agricultural classes of Ireland aro, as regards their humanity, very much like human beings iu general. They aro, as we all aro, very much the creatures of circumstances; and many of them have a right to say to some, at least, of their detractors, as Tony Lumpkiu said to his mother when she complained of his bad manners, ' You ha' mo as you reared me.' (Laughter.) I believe, my lord, most solemnly, that if landlords had resided more upon their estates—if from the days of Filibuster Strongbow to the days of Head Centre Stephens Ireland had not been withering under the curse of absenteeism—if such gatherings as wo see to-day were the rule, and not the exception, on every large Irish estate —if the lords of the soil had lived on the soil, not only in what lawyers call privity of estate, but in privity of feeling with their tenantry, we should never have heard of Fenianism at all, or of that pond asinorum,' the Irish dif ficulty." (Cheers.) The Murder of a Warder at Chatham. CHATHAM, Sept. 10. James Boyle, the poor unfortunate assistant warder who was brutally attacked on Wednesday evening last by a convict named Fletcher, expired on Saturday evening, at about 7 o'clock, after lin gering in a state of insensibility the whole of that time. This day, at 1 o'clock, T. Hills, Esq., coroner, held an inquest on the body of the unfortunate man, at the Convict Prison, St. Mary's. After the jury had been sworn they proceeded to view the body which presented a frightful spectacle, the blows from the assassin's hammer having penetrated to the base of the brain, thereby causing a matter of wonder that life should remain in the body from Wednesday evening to Saturday evening. Dr. Weeks, who first saw the sufferer, the poor fellow was sensible to pain f or about one hour, for when his wounds were sponged he groaned. The convict Fletcher was present at the inquest, and in answer to the coron er said he had no ques tions to ask any of them. The he wished to make any statement. that that he thought that the The prisoner r e p o ffi c ers of the pris on wanted to try him and hang four or five had been to his bed him th e mselves ; fo s ide and threa tened to take away his life.

Mr. Everest said he recog nised the p ris oner as being in the same yard , and tried at the same ses sions, at Newgate, with Currie, who murdered Major do Vere, R.E. ; the prisoner was then sen tenced to 7 years' penal servitude for highway rob bery with violence. Prisoner is a tall muscular young man, of only 201 years of age, and has had several former con victions.

The report of the directors states that £5,582,967 had been expended, including £163,034 on various lines and works during the past half year. The sum invested in the shares of other companies was £363,500, making the total expenditure on capital account to the 31st of July last £5,916,467. The sum of £13,157 had been expended on the renewal of the permanent way during the half year, of which £lO,OOO had been charged against revenue. The rolling stock had been efficiently maintained, and considerable additions had been made to it during the half year. Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the money market, the loans falling due were renewed at 4/ per cent. interest. The average rate of interest on the debenture debt was now £4 2s. od. per cent. The construction of a portion of the line authorised by the " Ayrshire Lines Act, 1865," was being rapidly proceeded with, and the directors proposed shortly to let the contract for a further portion to complete the connection with the main line at Mauchline, thus shortening the line from Ayr to the south by upwards of 11 miles. The junction with the Renfrew line at Paisley had been opened for traffic, and the Paisley and Renfrew railway having been relaid, and a second line of rails added, trains now run direct between Glasgow and Renfrew. The works on the Govan branch, the joint property of the company and the Caledonian, were being proceeded with, and it was anticipated that it would be opened for traffic early next year. The contractors were making satisfactory progress with the works of the Glasgow Union Railway, and the directors trusted that the Union Company would be in a position to complete their line and stations at an early period. The works of the Greenock and Ayrshire Railway, in which this company was so largely interested, were being vigorously pro ceeded with. The company were authorised in the last Session of Parliament by one Act to carry out the arrangement made with the Caledonian Com pany, and the promoters of the Ayr and Douglas Railway, the capital authorised being £lOO,OOO by shares, and £33,300 by loans; by the other Act they were authorised to make certain improvements on the Kilmarnock and Troon line, and the substi tution of bridges for level crossings in several cases, the capital authorised being £26 by shares and £8,600 by loans. The directors did not contem plate any application to Parliament for new works or extension in the ensuing Session. The total traffic receipts for the last half-year were £19,112 above those for the corresponding half of 1865. The passenger traffic showed an increase of £7,769, and the goods and mineral traffic an increase of £10,203. The total receipts in the past half year amounted to £290,153, and the total expendi ture to £120,061, leaving £170,092, to which was added £5,151 surplus from the previous half year, making £175,244. From this was deducted interest on loans £27,691, leaving £147,553 available for divi dend. The dividend on the 5 per cent. perpetual guaranteed stocks, Nos. 1 and 2, and on the May bole and Girvan 4 per cent. guaranteed stock ab sorbed £17,078, leaving a balance of £130,475, out of which the directors recommended a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum on the ordinary and participating preference stocks and shares of the company, carrying forward £3,351 to the credit of next half-year's account. Mr. W. Johnstone, the engineer, reported that the receipts for passen ger traffic per train mile amounted to 3s. 4d., and the expenses to ls. 3d., showing a profit of 2s. 14d. per train mile. The receipts for goods and minerals amounted to 3s. 114 d. per train mile, and the ex penses to ls. 4i-d. per train mile, showing a profit of 2s. 6:ld. per train mile.

The Great Ship -Race from China. The truly marvellous race between the fleet of China clipper ships, from Foo-chow-foo, for the premium offered by the London brokers for the first season's teas, and their almost neck-and-neck struggle during the whole voyage of upwards of 16,000 miles, is an event exciting a vast amount of interest in almost every maritime port, both at home and abroad. It appears there were nine ships engaged in the contest, and not five tia, previously reported. Wher They were as follows, together with the time of their : Date respective departures / Aom Foo-chow-foo : Names. Ton nage.of Built, Sailing. Ada 686 Jones Captains.

The Fiery Cross obtained a start of one day over the others ; the Serica, Ariel, and Taeping crossed the bar of Foo chow-foo in company together, 30th May. The Taitsing started the following day. There was a fair N.E. wind blowing, which the Fiery Cross kept to 19 20 N., when they met with a few hours' calm and southerly wind. N.E. wind, fresh, again set in, which carried them to the Parcells reef on June 3, though they were not sighted. The Serica, Taeping, and Ariel met with similar weather. The Fiery Cross saw nothing of them until noon of the 7th of June in lat. 9 37, when she passed a large ship on the opposite tack, believed to have been the Arid. To the southward of the Parcells they met with strong south-west winds. As far as we have been able to ascertain, the ships passed the lighthouse at Anjer, Straits of Sunda, as follows :—Fiery Cross at noon of the 18th of June, Ariel on the morning of the 20th of June, Taeping on the afternoon of the 20th of June, Serica at 6 p.m. of the 22d of June, Taitsing at 10 p.m. of the 22d of June, and Black Prince on the 29th of June. At this time the Fiery Cross was evidently hold ing the lead, while the Taitsing, which left Foo chow-foo the day after the others, had caught up with the Serica, the Fiery Cross heading both by two days. From Anjer they carried good trade winds to the meridian of Madagascar. The Fiery Cross passed Mauritius on the 30th of June, and the Arid on the 2d of July. The Cape of Good hope was sighted by the Fiery Cross on the 15th of July at 10 p.m. The Ariel rounded the Cape the next day, wind S.E. to E. and N.N.E. The Serica rounded the Cape on the 22d. The Equator was passed—Fiery Cross 6 p.m. of the 4th of August, Ariel on the sth, and Serica on the 19th. On the 9th of August, in lat. 12 29 N., the Fiery Cross signalled the Tacping, and continued in com pany till the 17th, with wind variable and light. In lat. 27 53, long. 36 51 W. a fresh breeze sprung up and took the Taeping out of sight from the Fiery Cross in four or five hours. The Fiery Cross was becalmed and was not making one knot per hour for 24 hours. This circumstance is alleged to have lost her the race. On the 29th she reached lat. 41 5 N., long. 35 51 W., and at 10 a.m. of the 6th of Sep tember she sighted the Isle of Wight, it bearing N.N.W. wind W.S.W., blowing hard. The Ariel and Taeping, which had lost sight of each other for 70 days, found themselves on Wed nesday morning at eight o'clock off the Lizard, run ning neck and neck up the Channel under every stitch of canvas that could be set, with a strong westerly wind. During the whole day the two ships kept their position, dashing up the Channel side by side in splendid style, sometimes almost on their beam endsevery sea sweeping their decks. On approaching the pilot station of Dungeness the next morning they each fired blue lights to signalise their posi tion. At daybreak the pilots boarded them at the same moment, and the race continued in the same ex citing manner till they arrived in the Downs, where they both took steam-tugs to tow them to the river. The ships had to shorten sail to enable the tugs coming up and picking up the hawsers to take them in tow. This was about 8 o'clock a.m., the tugs starting almost simultaneously, and both ships still neck and neck. The Taeping, however, was for turnate enough to have a superiority in the power of the steam-tugs, and reached Gravesend some time before the Ariel. The Serica followed closely upon them. She passed Deal at noon, and got into the river with the same tide which carried the Taeping and Ariel up the river to the docks, when the result of this extraordinary race was declared to be as follows :- Ist, Tacping, docked in London Dock, 9.45 p.m. 2nd, Ariel, docked in East India Dock, 10.15 p.m. 3rd, Serica, docked in West India Dock, 11.30 p.m. The Taeping, therefore, was the winner of the premium about £5OO. The bills of lading of each ship setting forth that 10s. per ton extra to be paid if first sailing vessel in dock with new teas from Foo-chow. Vie Fiery Cross arrived in the Downs on the 7th, andup to an anchor on ac count of a y compelled where she remained some time. She, howev er, was heavloblowing, bring managed to get into the g ato London Dock by 8 o'clock on Saturday morning, some 28 hours after Taeping. T he fifth ship,the Taitsing, arrived in the river yesterday forenoon. During the past few days the excitement occa sioned n unprece dented. The friends of each vessel have been b t y h s thegreat r oprobability annual oceano f therace supporting their favourite, by betting considerable sums. During no previous year has so much in terest been centred in the result of this race, and from the fact of so many Clyde-built ships being engaged in the competition, Scotchmen generally have largely partaken in the speculation which has existed at almost every maritime port, both in Britain and China. It will be remembered that last year the ships Fiery Cross and Serica left Foo-chow for London together, on the 28th May, both having been towed to sea by the same tug, and that both vessels arrived off the Isle of Wight simultaneously on the 10th of Sept., after a passage of 106 days. By a stroke of good fortune, however, the tug sent out by the owners of the Fiery Cross sighted her, took her in tow, and arrived in Lontlon one tide before her rival, the Serica, the latter having tailed to sight the tug on the look-out for her. Singular to observe the Taeping, Ariel, and Serica were all built by Messrs. Steele and Co., of Greenock. The Taeping and Ariel were constructed on the composite principle, wood and iron. The Serica is iron-built. The cargoes of the ships were, Taeping 1,108,709 lbs. of tea ; Ariel, 1,230,900 lbs. of tea ; the Serica, 954,236 lbs. ; Fiery Cross, 854,236 lbs., and the Taitsing 1,003,130 lbs. The time occupied on the voyage by the three ships has been 99 days, being seven days shorter VALE OF CRICKHOWELL. The half-yearly meeting was held at the offices, Crickhowell ; Mr. G. A. Davies in the chair. The report stated that the directors had succeeded in the last session in obtaining powers for an exten sion to Brecon, which would enable them to effect a direct communication between Brecon and Aber gavenny. The proposed deviation at Abergavenny had been abandoned in consequence of the opposi tion to it, but another equally favourable was likely to be substituted. They had purchased some of the land required for the line and were in treaty for the remainder, and they hoped to commence the works shortly. The report was unanimously adopted, and the retiring directors were re-elected. COWBIUDGE. The half-yearly meeting was hell on Thursday, at Cowbridge ; Mr. N. Carne in the chair. The report stated that the traffic on the line was satisfactory, and if the company had sufficient capital to work it themselves, it would be greatly to their advantage. The negotiations for a lease to the Taff Vale had not succeeded, but they were now in treaty with another company, with every pros pect of a favourable result. The report was adopted, and a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors concluded the pro ceedings. ISLE OF WIGHT. Yesterday this company's line from Ryde to Ventnor was opened throughout. For nearly two years eight miles of the line had been opened—viz., from Ryde to Shanklin, and 250,000 passengers were carried each year. With the extension of the line to Ventnor, it was fully expected the number would be largely increased. Although only a single line, 111 miles in length, the directors had met with many difficulties, chiefly of a pecuniary na ture, also the contractors for the works. The last five miles opened yesterday from Shanklin to Ventnor, including three-quarters of a mile of tunnelling, had taken more than two years to accomplish. The line had cost altogether upwards of £300,000. The station at Ventnor was situated in the " Quarry" at the base of the Wroxall and St. Bonif ace Downs, the former of which was tunnelled to the extent of three quar ters of a mile. There were stations at Wroxall, Shanklin, Sandown, Brading, and Ryde, and the company had powers granted them to extend the line from the latter place to the foot of the pier, which was now connected with the steamboats by tramway. By the opening of the line Ventnor was placed within four hours and seven minutes of the metropolis. The first train arrived at Ventnor station at eight o'clock, the journey from Ryde having occupied 25 minutes. A large number of inhabitants and visitors were on the platform and surrounding heights, and greeted its approach with cheers. The engine was gaily decked with flags and evergreens as it emerged from the tunnel, firing a salute with fog signals. Twelve trains each way was the appointed service for September. OTTOMAN GAS. The eighth ordinary general meeting of this com pany was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. Horner in the chair. The report stated the net profit during the past six months had been £431, and the receipts for gas to private consumers £1,048 against £493 for the corresponding period of last year. The Board had resolved not to accede to the demands which had been made by the sub-Commission of Consuls for a reduction of price to 500 piastres per lamp, nor would they resume lighting the public lamps until all the arrears due to the company were discharged. In reference to the hostile measures threatened by the sub-Commission, the directors had taken steps to insure the protection of the Foreign-office against any injury to the rights or property of the company. The manager in Smyrna had reported that £2,050 The Moors and Forests. PERTHSHIRE.—The hills last week yielded well, but the weather was a little broken. The birds are rapidly becoming wild, and on some moors they are difficult to get at. In the Breadalbane district there has all along been excellent sport, and large quanti ties of game have been forwarded from that quarter to southern dealers. His highness the Maharajah Dhuleep Singh has left the shire for a time. He has heavy bags. On the 3d inst. Lord Glenorchy had 20 brace of grouse and some hares on Taymouth moor.
