THE HEROIC SAILOR JEROME.—The packet-ship New World, Captain Knight, arrived at New York on the 22d ult. It will be recollected that this packet-ship was the means of saving several of the passengers of the Ocean Monarch. The heroic sailor, Jerome, who is attached to the New World, was to receive the fro dom of the city of New York, in a gold box, for his bravery and humanity on the occasion of the burning of the Ocean Monarch. Jerome has worked along shore, and sailed out of New York for the last sever years. He married within the last two years, and has now one child. He is poor, and has nothing to de pend upon but his hard-earned wages as foremost hand when on the deep. ROYAL MARINES.—PLYMOUTH, OCT. 9.—On Sa turday last 100 men belonging to the Woolwich division Royal Marines arrived here from Woolwich by the Great Western and South Devon Railways. These b h ic e b re m for z embarkationmarines ar are principally t o on board recruits, t an e fidrst ares be put in commission. They were under the temporal-. ships which command of Captain G. Walkup Congdon and Lieu , tenant G. Leslie, who have returned to Woolwich. FATAL ACCIDENT.—About noon on Thursday last, the general terminus at Perth was the scene of a very painful accident, which terminated fatally a few houi thereafter. It appears that a train recently arrived had just got quit of its passengers, and was taking a posi tion on a centre line of rails, to make way for another that was just coming up, when one of the porters named Dewar, a smart young man about 26 years of age, thoughtlessly leaped upon the footboard, in opposi tion to a standing order, and, catching the handle of a door, was swinging himself onward, when his bead corning in contact with one of the pillars that support the roof he was struck to the ground, and falling across the rails the wheels of the two following carriages went over his legs, crushing the bones in a most shocking manner. After enduring great agony he expired the same afternoon at five o'clock.—Perth Advertiser. MA N v. HORSE.—After the last race of the Union Hunt Club meeting a very novel jumping match, for 501. a side, over a hurdle about four feet high, came off be tween Mr. C. 11. Reynard and Mr. William Watt's horse, The Veterinary Surgeon of Settrington, by Irish Birdeatcher, d am b y F ungus, five years old. 'The con ditions of the match were that it should be a clear leap, and in the event of both of tl - ,em clearing it, the hurdles were then to be raised higher, until one or the other was beaten. Mr. B. B. Thompson was chosen umpire. The toss for choice of jumping first was won by Mr. Reynard, when he ordered the horse to leap first. The horse then came at the hurdle, ridden by William Wil son, but did not succeed in clearing it, slightly tipping the hurdle as he went over. It was now Mr. Reynard's turn to jump, when he cleared the hurdle at the first attempt, and consequently won the match. Wilson then tried the horse at a much greater height, when he proved himself a first-rate leaper. Mr. Moore, the owner of Wolf Dog, also mounted the horse, and took him across the hurdles in a very gallant manner. The horse stands about 15 hands high.—Yorkshire Gazette. TURKISH GRAIN.—The vessel lona, arrived in the docks from Constantinople, has brought 3,000 quarters of barley, comprising the entire cargo. This is, we believe, the largest importation of grain which has taken place this season from any port in Europe. SHOCKING ACCIDENT AND LOSS OF LIFE FROM GUN POWDER.—Yesterday (Monday) a dreadful accident oc curred at the village of Brynsiencyn, near Carnarvon. Elizabeth Jones, a charwoman, brought from Carnarvon six pounds of gunpowder. As the evening was very wet, the powder got damp, and when Mrs. Jones reached home she placed it before the fire to dry. There were four of her daughters sitting by the fireside at the time, and the powder having taken fire, a fearful explosion took place, the roof of the house was blown off, and the inmates dreadfully scorched. Mr. John Daniel and others entered the house immediately after the accident, and found the poor sufferers with their clothes on fire, and their blackened skin and flesh hanging in rags from their bones. The youngest daughter died soon after wards, and little hopes are entertained by the medical men of the recovery of the others. Their names are Perry Roberts, aged 15; Elizabeth Roberts, 20; Mar. garet Jones, 32; and the mother, Elizabeth Jones, 55. —Liverpool Mercury. COURT OF ALDERMEN.-Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of business. The Sheriffs re ported to the Court the state of the several City prisons. The statements made by the medical men as to the health of the prisoners were, considering the period of the year and the general condition of the metropolis, extremely favourable. Slight fever and diarrhoea exist in some of them, but no dangerous maladies have made their appearance. A memorial was presented from several merchants in the City, complaining of the great inconvenience to which merchants and other gentlemen who had business to transact in :the justice-room of the Mansion House were sub jected, in consequence of being obliged to come in contact with very objectionable persons, in proceeding to the place at which affidavits were received. The Lord Mayor said he knew that the merchants had long had cause to complain of the nuisance, and he had en deavoured to give some temporary accommodation, but it would be for the Court to apply a permanent and effectual remedy. Several members of the Court bore testimony to the statement that the nuisance was quite intolerable, and that the skill of Mr. Bunting, the City architect, would be admirably exercised in removing what had been matter of complaint for a number of )ears. The memorial was referred by unanimous con sent to a special committee.—Adjourned. OPEN COURTS.-The new penal Act (which came into operation on the ad instant) provides that the room or place in which a justice or justices shall sit to hear and try cases shall be deemed an open and public court, to which the public generally may have access, so far as the same can conveniently contain them. This is another step in the right direction, though the rooms are generally, if not purposely, made too small. But this does not apply to cases under investigation where the accused has to be sent for trial in a superior court. CHEAP RAILWAY TRAINS.—By order of the Com missioners of Railways, upwards of 170 cheap or third class trains now run daily on the railways of the United Kingdom extending over more than 4,000 miles, the object of the Legislature being to secure to the poorer classes the means of travelling by railway at moderate fares, and in carriages protected from the weather. By the Act it is incumbent upon every railway company to run one such train every day, at one penny per mile, and a speed of at least twelve miles per hour. Children under three years are to be taken without charge, and under twelve years at half the charge for an adult. Any neglect of these regulations subjects the company to penalties, and deprives them of the benefit of the re mission of the passenger-tax which is allowed on all cheap trains.

The crowd on the heath this afternoon, notwithstand ing the weather from an early hour in the morning until after the second race was very unfavourable, vastly ex. ceeded the anticipations even of those who looked upon numbers as the test of a "grand day." Amongst them we must not class the " legitimists" of the turf, to whom the arrival of about 2,500 people, by the special trains from London, Norwich, Yarmouth, and Cambridge, was a sight as novel as it was unwelcome. It is clear that Newmarket will no longer be confined to the aristocratic and sporting classes ; the Eastern Counties directors, who have recently leased the branch from Chesterford to Newmarket, have hit upon the right way of making it a valuable " feeder, " not only by improving the g enera l traffic but by making the cost of the trip to th e foun tain head of the turf, nearly one-third less than is charged for a return ticket on the Derby day. The specimen we have seen on this occasion, distasteful as it may be in some quarters, will, we have no doubt, lead to the adoption of cheap trains on all great race days at Newmarket. The weather, we have already stated, was unpropitious for the greater part of the day; it cleared up, however, about an hour before the Cesarewitch, and was all that could be desired until near the close of the racing. We have no time to dwell on the apart; it will be seen that in one of the leading events—the Clearwell —the Duke of Richmond's mare lost her chance by an accidental collision with Oquetos, and that the crack race was carried off by an animal, who, until he came into his present hands, was looked upon as nothing more than a mile horse. Snrplice, on whom such heavy sums had been invested, never showed in front. The race was run at a very severe pace from end to end; so trying indeed was it, that out of thirty-two horses only four were left with the slightest chance at the new ground. The horses passed the winning chair at exactly 39 minutes before four, and the result was known in London in six minutes, the distance from the chair to the Electric Telegraph Station, about a mile and a half, being done by horse express.

The plaintiff in this action is a sheriffs' officer, and defendant is an attorney. The action was brought to recover the sum of 61. Bs., for fees, &e. Defendant denied this liability, and also a set off of 2001: Mr. PARRY, for the plaintiff, said the set off was a Mere joke, and it was quite clear on the authority of a number of men, that although an attorney was not gene rallY personally responsible yet he might render himself so by his ow n acts, and in this case he had done so, as instead of leaving the; writs with the sheriff to be en forced as he thought proper, had deputed the plaintiff as his special bailiff by delivering the writs to him and giving him instructions. He should prove these facts, Which be considered entitled the plaintiff to a verdict. Several witnesses were examined to prove the work done, the fees due, and payments made by the plaintiff. Mr. PARRY then quoted the case of Walbanke and Masterrnan, 3C B Reports 94. The defendant's name, however, was misprinted, and is not in the Index. The SECONDARY said it was ,a great pity more atten tion was not paid to him. The LEARNED COUNSEL contended that in that, and many other cases, his case was made out. The SECONDARI thought that the mere delivery of a writ to an officer was not binding on the attorne y. l ere it was s h own t h at the writ had found its way into the hands o f th e o ffi cer, and it was a question for the jury to say whether there had been any specific di rections: Mr. PARNELL contended that none had been proved, but. mainly relied on the fact that no warrant had been put in to show that the plaintiff was an officer of the sheriff, and the writs alone were not evidence. that The SECON migDARY was of the same op i n i on, o b serving ht be offi cer put int o t h e h ands of a party not an make' and ho w,,uld b e a trespasser, and would not a charge for an illegal act.--Nonsuited ac cordingly. i THE ARMY.—The 6th Regiment of Dragoon , Guards (Carabiniers), at present stationed at Dundalk, , are under orders to move to Dublin; the 2d Royal North British Dragoons (Scotch Greys) are under orders to move from Athlone to Longford, relieving the 13th Light Dragoons, which proceed to Dundalk; the 4th Light Dragoons, now stationed at Newbridge, move to Athlone, sending detachments as well to outposts; the 7th Ilussars, now in Dublin, will relieve the lastmen tioned regiment at New bridge.

The 23d Foot, lately arrived from Halifax, will be stationed for some time at Winchester. Lieutenant-Colonel Erskine, of the 2d battalion 45th Foot, died lately at Fort Hare, Cape of Good Hope. ROBBERY IN A CHURCHYARD.—On Sunday even ing, about ten o'clock, a young man, named George Pearson, was passing through All Saints' Churchyard, Maidstone, when he was suddenly seized by a man who had been concealed behind a tombstone, and who pinioned his arms while a female accomplice rifled his pockets, with the contents of which, amounting to about five shillings, they made off. On attempting to pursue her, Pearson was struck a blow in the eye by the man, who followed the woman. Information was given to the po lice, and the pair were apprehended at Hawkes's lodg ing -house, High-street, and identified by Pearson. They will be taken before the magistrates this day. Their names are Ann Smith and James Powell, and by their own account they come from Tonbridge Wells.—Maid stone Journal.

No case of the least interest came before the Learned Gen tleman during the morning. The Learned Gentleman will give judgment in the case of Dr. Byber on Thursday morning. (Nat) THE LATE TREASON TRIALS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—I perceive that the jury have found O'Brien guilty, but have recommended him to mercy. This is, in my opinion, as it ought to be; but how different from what passed some time since at the Old Bailey. No sounds of mercy fell from the lips of the foreman of the jury who settled the fate of Cuffey and Co. One would have thought that the hurt, if not the head, would have prompted to the good deed. Moreover, the jury had broad ground whereon to have built substantial reason for a merciful re commendation. These Chartists were simply fools ; and their wildest doings nothing more than the pur blind blundering of besotted imbecility. The Crown knew this—hence the employment of the Powell and Co. to train and ripen the affair for the law. These Chartists, simpletons like, became entangled in the meshes of the snare woven by the Crown. They were entrapped, and " Found Guilty." ' ... 2 ... o ARLBRO'-STREET-(THIS DAY). There was not a single charge of any public interest before the Court this morning. The whole time of the Magistrate was occupied in disposing of upwards of forty begging and drunken charges. Amongst the latter a PPenred a Mr. John Hyde, who described. himself as an editor. He was found in such a complete state of intoxication that he had not quite recovered when he made his appearance before the magistrate. As it was the first time, he was discharged. ... o On Wednesday last the first portion of the Vernon Collection was removed from the residence of its muni ficent donor to the apartments in the basement story of the National Gallery, where it is to be temporarily lodged until other and final arrangements can be made. Mr. Ward's picture of the " Council of Horses," pur chased by Mr. Vernon at the late exhibition of the Royal Academy, has been added by him to his public gift. The National Gallery will be re-opened to the public a fortnight hence, when the two pictures by Taddeo Gaddi, lately given to the National Gallery by Mr. Coningham, will be seen in addition to the modern collection.—Athena um.

TUE CASTLEREAGH MEMonts AND CoßßEspoND blcE.--The p u bli cation of th iat the present moment, will doubtl ess excite s work, great attention. The Morning C hronicle characterizes it as a " work of the hightest and most universal interest, which places the reader on intimate terms with many of the rulers of mankind in the days of our immediate progenitors and ouv The letters in this valuable and remarkable ourselves.n though a considerable number of them were written by Castlereagh, are chiefly those of his official correspondents, and they are interspersed with many curious memorials and strange deletions from spies to the Government of the day—constituting a large body of the secret history of the epoch. It were superfluous to insist on the extraordinary interest and importance which must belong to a work like this, containing so !l'atn3' original and authentic memorials, and curious and important documents, written by some of the most re ill".kable men of an epoch the moat strang e and event ful,4nd which has preceded our own generation by so short an interval, that the rear guard, as it were, is not Yet belovv the horizon of actual life. These papers, in deed, have emerged more rapidly than is generally the e ase with records of the kind from the dust and mystery Of the archi ve, but, if there be any want of judgment, or t h e of deli cacy i n the publication of these State Papers, we have been s o profoundly interested in the perusal ) t h e ,, of h m, that w e ar e tempted to exclaim —Oh 1 felix e ul PAINFUL ACCIDENT.— About six o'clock on rueFri evening, as the Lyra steamer was canting, prepare, toY to starting on her outward voyage, a passenger was in dangerous proximity to the rope attached 1.0 the quay. One of the hands on board the steamer, a m arried man, named Peter Campbell, ran forward and w as in the act of dragging the passenger out of harm's Wa y, when the rope unfortunately got coiled round one ,„°` his Brides ; and in an instant, from the rapid pro Vega the vessel was making, the foot was separated from th e leg close by the ankle joint, the rope cutting it through almost as completely as if it had been done by r ,,e sur geon ' s knife.

THE WEST YORKSHIRE ELECTION.—The Quid maws of this extensive electoral district are already brimful of speculation as to who may be the probable successor of Lord Morpeth (now Earl of Carlisle) in the representation of the riding. Various names have already been canvassed, with more or less probability of their being started, but nothing can be known with anything like certainty until the leaders of the political parties in the riding have had opportunities of confer- ring on the subject. As Lord Wilton now sits for the county of Wicklow, it is not expected that his Lordship will become again a candidate; but it is thought that Mr. Edmund Denison, the Chairman of the Great Northern Railway Company, would have a good chance, as, at all events, he would not have Lord Morpeth nor Mr. Cobden for competitors. We have much pleasure in announcing that an amateur dramatic performance will take place this evening at the Strand Theatre, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to the laudable object of enlarging the library of the Whittington Club. The programme of the entertainments states that the performances will consist of Douglas Jerrold's popular play of the Rent Day, and Planelies farce of The Loan of a Lover, as well as a miscellaneous concert. The respective parts in the two dramas are to be sustained by members of this insti tution, who have undertaken to get up the entertain ments at their own expense. We ►rest that their exer tions will be crowned with such success as to enable them to carry out the object they have in view. CHARING..CROSS HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday afternoon a meeting of Governors and Committee of Management of the above hospital was held in the Board-room of the institution ; Taylor, Esq., in the chair. During the quarter just ended, there had been admitted 338 in, and 3,390 out-patients; of accident cases there had been 547, of which 77 had been received into the wards, in all de partments being a great increase over the preceding quarter. The report proceeded to state, that during the past year 12,092 indigent sick poor had been relieved, of whom 1,155 had been in, and 10,937 out-patients; the whole cost of these had been only 2,2921. 4s. 11d.; of the number of out-patients, no fewer than 10,509 were freely admitted without any recommendation. Two large wards are unoccupied, the present resources of the hospital being much too limited for the full exer cise of its useful operations, and the increasing applica tions for relief. The total number of patients since 1818 had been about 140,000 persons. Yesterday the Lord Mayor entertained a large party at dinner, amongst whom were the members of the Centenary Club, of which his lordship is a member; covers were laid for forty, and of those who partook of the worthy chief magistrate's hospitality were the Pre sident of the College of Physicians (Dr. Paris), Sir Wil. ham Magnay, Bart., Mr. Alderman Humphery, M.P., the Lord Mayor Elect, M.P., Sir George Carroll, the Sheriffs (Finnis and Goodhart), the President of the Royal College of Surgeons (Mr. Stanley), Alderman Moon, Sir William Poland, Alderman Lawrence, Mr. Bentley (treasurer of St. Bartholomew's Hospital), Al derman Farpcomb, Mr. Richard Taylor, F.S.A., Dr. Roupell, Dr. Hue, Mr. Anderton, the Master of the Vintner's Company (Mr. Kaye), Mr. Deputy Ste vens, &e. (S. Mann) 1 M. DE LAMARTINE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,--Allow me to express the great pleasure it has afforded me on observing the energetic manner with which you have advocated and vindicated the great L amartine. It must afford consolation to every philanthropic mind to observe (notwithstanding the partial out breaks) that France, yes, military France, is making rapid strides towards teaching the world the great value of the sublime precepts of peace and goodwill amongst men, and earnestly do I hope that no un towardly military spirit may rise to mar the godlike prospect of the reign of peace on earth and the fulfil ment of that which is its natural effect, figuratively described as beating swords into ploughshares and spears into pruning hooks, enabling every man to sit under his own vine and fig-tree, and none to make him afraid. QUEEN'S THEATRE, HULL.—Considerable interest was excited hero on Thursday, the justice-room being crowded on the occasion of an application for the re newal of license for the acting of stage plays in the Queen's Theatre. Eleven magistrates were in attend ance, who, after hearing th e p a l tr y opposition against renewing the license, determined to grant the license for nine months, excepting November, December, and January. Upon what principle they made the exception it is difficult to say. It is, however, known those months form the winter season of the patent theatre, so that we must still have a monopoly, and the playgoers have no choice of theatres. The Queen's Theatre cost the pro prietors a very heavy sum, and to oblige them to close the place for three months must be attended with great loss. The lessee will doubtless suffer severely by the house being closed three of the best months in the year. There must be something wrong in the law which gives power to magistrates whereby property can be raised in value or depreciated. ROYAL ARTILLERY.—WOOLWICH, OCT. 10.—The baggage of the two companies of Royal Artillery under orders for the West Indies was put on board the A tholl troop-ship yesterday at Woolwich Dockyard, and the companies will embark to-morrow. Captain the Hon. R. Ilandcock's company proceeds to Barbadoes, under the command of Second Captain Goodenough, with LieutenantJ. F. Pennycuick, to relieve Captain Savage's company, Ist battalion, at that station since November, 1843. Major Burnaby's company, 6th battalion, pro • ceeds to Jamaica under the command of Second Captain M. C. Dixon, with Lieutenant B. Lawson and Lieutenant J. F. Soady, to relieve Captain Fisher's company, at that station since November, 1843. Detachments are also under orders to proceed to Barbadoes to join Captain Taylor's 9th battalion, and the following officers proceed with the detachments: —Second Captain Rogers, with Lieutenant R. P. C. Jones, and Lieutenant C. Oldershaw. Lieutenant Vandeleur and a detachment also proceed at the same time to join Captain Morris's company 2d battalion at Jamaica. The total number for Barbadoes, in addition to the officers named, is eight non-commis sioned officers, and 130 men, with six women. The total i n for Jamai ca , i n a ddi t i on to the officers named, is eight non-commissioned officers and 116 men, with six women. Captain Goodenough, being the senior officer, will have the bharge of the companies during the voyage. Judging from accounts, Lamartine is, in my opinion, one of the greatest and most extraordinary statesmen France has ever produced (notwithstanding the envious sneers made by parties, either ignorant or corrupt). France, and the cause of humanity, are deeply indebted to him; and I have no doubt that France and posterity will duly appreciate his extra ordinary merits, although he has had, and doubtless will have, many severe trials and troubles to endure, so long as he persists in advocating honesty and truth, for it is said that men like darkness rather than light, because their deeds are evil. So men accustomed to hypocrisy and corruption will hate Lamartine, so long as he adheres to such a line of conduct; and if piety accompany his other great attainments, he will un doubtedly gain that which the world cannot give nor can it take it away—viz., peace of mind —which will be of far greater importance at the final period of life, than all the glory of a Bonaparte or a Wellington, or that which the most splendid earthly attainments can bestow, ... o ... o ... o ... o If the French nation be guided by the influence and example of their great Laniartine, my idea is that France will, at no great distance of time, be the great beacon of the world, and thus enable the nations of the earth to progress onwards toward the full enjoyment of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Lamartine's conduct and example fully coincides with the following sentiments : "It is nobler to induce by argument than to compel by physical energy. Rational conviction is permanently in its effects 1 those of physical compulsion continue no longer than the agency is exerted, and the tecoil, where there is any degree of elasticity extant, is always in proportion to the pressure employed. Let us, therefore, in all our political expressions and transactions, carefully guard against even the ap pearance of violence or intemperance of manners. We shall find it much easier and more convenient to prevent the storm than to appease its rage. Much more agreeable and beneficial to conciliate and employ the kind affections than to encounter and rule the angry passions of men. Violence of any description, and in any case, should be the last resource. In politics especially it is liable to be abused to the worst of vices and purposes. Its sanguinary introduction into political systems, and internal animosities is, perhaps, the most prolific source of all temporal evils and miseries in the world. 0 thou sword ! when wilt thou cease to devour ? 0: thou thundering artillery, when wilt thou cease to roar ? Alike insa tiable and irresistible, ye are the curse and terror of the human race; sin is your parent; perdition is your award."—Yours, respectfully, London, Oct. 9, 1848. PHILANTHROPY. THE ORDER OF THE GARTER.-It is reported that the vacant blue ribbon will be conferred either on the Marquis of Westminster or the Earl of Clarendon. This is the third vacancy which has occurred among the knights of this most noble order since the accession of the present Government. During the administration of Sir Robert Peel there occurred no less than nine vacancies. A POSER FOR THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPP.--A Northumbrian farmer, who " feeds his flocks" on the Cheviots, and never " reads the papers," had an agent of the Electric Telegraph Company thrown in his way, and, with the hospitality of his class, gave him a bed for the night. While they were having a crack together over a glass, the electricity-man gave his host a lecture, an hour long, in explanation of the telegraph—its nature and uses; concluding his discourse much to his own satisfac tion, and, as he believed, the edification of the farmer. But no sooner had he done, than the wondering Tripto lemus, before closing his gaping, wondering mouth, started the question—" How many head of sheep will it carry to market?" The discomfited guest rose to his legs, with a look of blank despair, took up his bedroom candlestick (if there be such things on the Cheviots)--- and vanished. SALE OF SIR CHARLES KNIGHTLEY'S BULLS.—At the sale of bulls, which took place at Fawsley, on Fri day, the following prices were realized :—Lot 1 was bought by Lord Burlington for 41 guineas; lot 2, Mr. Malins, 35 guineas; lot 3, Duke of Rutland, 80 gui neas; lot 4, Mr. Bartholomew, 64 guineas; lot 5, Lord Ducie, 140 guineas; lot 6, Captain Dilke, 38 guineas; lot 7, Mr. Daniel, 22 guineas ; lot 8, Mr. York, 70 guineas; lot 9, Lord Spencer, 115 guineas; lot 10, C( , l. Pennant, 36 guineas ; lot 11, Mr. Doig, 50 guineas ; lot 12, Mr. Bennett, 42 guineas; averaging 641. Os. 9d. —Northampton Herald. A WHALE IN THE FIRTH OF CLYDE.—On Thurs day last a party of ladies and gentlemen left Port Ban natyne, is Bute, on a pleasure sail across the bay, to enjoy a pic-nic on one of the hills above Loch Striven. They had not proceeded far when they were joined by a whale, which followed them very closely in the wake r of the yacht, much to the alarm of the ladies. On their return from the loch the fish renewed its attentions to the party, but finally it left them near the mouth of tt e Kyles, having " blown off steam " vigorously the greater part of the cruise. A gentleman, on board, who has been in the Polar Seas, esti mat ed - the I length of the whale at from 25 to 30 feet. It - "— nosed species.

They were immediately forwarded to town by the autho rities at the port of arrival for delivery to their destination. The ship Severn, C. Duncan commander, left the river on the 9th of September, for Ceylon, with pas sengers and goods. A fine organ, built by Brycceon, made part of the lading, the promised gift to the con gregation of Trinity Church, Colombo, of the late Right Hon. J.A. Stewart Mackenzie, formerly Governor of the island. (Rogers) 1 • 3 INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.--This Court will sit on Wednesday next, the 18th inst., before the Chief Commissioner, for bail cases and motions ; and on the 31st the hearing of cases will be resumed, when the four Courts are appointed to be held. TEA.—None has been offered at public sale ; there is, however, a large amount on offer by private tresAy. For Black rather lower rates taken, and little desire is shown to do business by private treaty. The value of ordinary and good ordinary Congou is lid to Sid per lb. There is much dulness in the market for Green, and rather lower rates are taken for inferior; good and fine, however, realise full market terms. Scented and Pekoe Teas have been dealt in with caution, and must be called rather cheaper. The deliveries of is. Tea are still greater than up to this time last year, whilst the stock on land is smaller, and dealers are but moderately supplied. Public sales of Tea are declared ty.,; to take place on Friday ; the quantity at present adver t tised is 6,600 pkgs. COFFEE. —This afternoon Costa Rica Coffee met with greater attention, and 1,639 bags at auction sold at firm rates; fine and fine fine ordinary 33s to 38s. 24 pkgs - Jamaica taken in —fine at 90s, good 70s to 85s, and )34 middling 60s. 620 bags Plantation Ceylon sold at late . rates—fine at 60s to 64s 6d, good middling and good 52s 'l4 to 58s, low middling and middling 44a to 50s, fine fine .ordinary 35s to 41s, good and fine ordinary 28s to I 29s 6d. RICE.—To-day there was no public sale of East India Rice, and privately few purchases were made by ex porters or home trade buyers. Cleaned Rice is cheaper - town dressed Carolina selling at 25a to 28 s per cvs , SPIRITS.—For Jamaica Rum rather lower rates are again accepted, still exporters and home-trade buyers evince little desire to operate in the lower sorts ; fine is, [cc however, wanted, and realises full market rates. Th e , value of mid and good, 28 to 34 per cent over proof, is 3s 3d to 3s 10d, low 3s to 3s 2d, and fine, 34 to 38 over, 4s to 4s 6d. Leeward Island met with little atten tion, and a decline was observable, smell sales having been made at is 6d to is 6id for proof. East India is not much in demand, and the rates accepted are Is 5d to Is Sid; several parcels are also near at hand. For Deme rara the market looks dull, and the rates taken for strong - sorts are 2s 2d to 2s 9d. Brandy is not higher, still the mar - it firm, and there is a good demand, whilst the stock is small: for Cognac, best brands, of the vintage of 1846, the tee , rates paid are 4s 10d to ss, 1847 ditto 3s 10d to 4s, inferior sorts 2s 6d to 3s; Bordeaux, 2s to 2s Id for export sot t, and 2s 6d to 3s 6d fbr fit for duty. There is only a limited stock here. For British made Spirit there is a firm market; the priee of Gin for exportation i L has been fixed at 3s 6d per gallon proof. SALTPETRE.—To-day only a limited demand existed ' for rough privately, and 946 bags at auction went upon _ l4 rather lower terms, and a part only sold ; middling grey 8 to Ei per cent refraction at 24s fsd to 255, 3i good 25s 6d. ce SPICES.—To-day, at public sale, 136 bags White Pep per sold at 4d to 4kd for middling, which are rather lower rates; and 44 packages Jamaica Ginger at 53s to 100 s per cwt. 34 Saco is more in demand, and prices are rather higher for the better sorts: there is, however, a more plentiful supply. To-day at public sale 200 boxes Pearl have been sold at 21s to 21s 6d per cwt. INDIGO. The Quarterly Sale of East India com menced this day. During the progress of the sale 165 chests were withdrawn. 962 chests have passed the sale. There was a fair attendance of foreign and home buyers ; the biddings, however, have not been animated, although proprietors have gene rally given strong support to their marks. Prices have been exceedingly irregular—the ordinary and low 1 / 4 qualities of Bengal, and the few lots of fine shipping sorts, selling at the last sale's rates; whilst the middling - descriptions, chiefly fit for the German markets, brought es. an advance of 3d to 4d per lb. Kurpahs have been in a B brisk demand, at about 4d advance; but Madras were - neglected at the prices of the last sale. Proprietors 2 % have bought in 315 chests. FRIIIT.—There is still only a limited demand for t Raisins, and a desire is shown to sell new Valentia at i 38s to 40s. New Currants move off slowly at 425, and old at 345. The supply of Fruit is likely to be extensive ;s this year. COCHINEAL.—To-day more desire was shown to do business in Cochineal and 220 bags at auction all sold at fully former rates, silvers 3s 5d to 4s 6d per lb. TALLOW.—The market for Russian has been in a dull state since our last report; importers are willing sellers, and submitted to further reduced rates. The value of fine new P. Y. C. is 45s 9d to 46s per cwt, at which a desire is shown to realise. For forward de livery only a small amount of business has . been done up to the close of the year at 45s 6d to 45s 9d. Home melted is less wanted, and can be ob tained at 45s 6d to 46s nett cash, and which are lower rates. Other kinds of Tallow are cheaper, and met with little attention. At public sale 141 casks of New South Wales were only in part sold. at 40s to 44s 9d, and very low 37s 9d; 52 casks East India 46s 6d to 50s 3d; and 26 pipes South American 43s - to 44s 6d per cwt. The value of Rough Fat is 2s 7d per stone. Imports of Tallow have been upon a large scale since this day week, and the stock far exceeds that of this time last year, but deliveries are greater, whilst prices rule above that time. For public sale 500 casks are declared. OILS.—For public competition on Friday 15 tuns of Sperm, 90 of Southern, 22 tuns Cocoa Nut, and 132 casks of Palm are declared. imports are still of little moment, whereas deliveries continue of a satisfactory nature, and prices rule much under those of this time last year. Southern is wanted, and as the supply is small former rates are well supported. At Pubic sale 17 tuns were sold. Seal is in excellent demand, and on the part of holders there is firmness ; pale is worth 251 lOs to 271, tinged and straw 251 lOs to 26/, and other sorts 241 to 25/ per ton. Sperm is in excellent demand, and prices tend upwards, good and fine quality realising 701 to 731 per tun, and there is a decreased supply, whereas the consumption is getting larger. Linseed Oil finds a more ready sale for home trade purposes, whilst a. brisker ex port demand exists, still prices cannot be quoted higher, and they rule at 22s to 22s 3d per cwt on the spot. For forward delivery sales to a fair extent are re ported at 22s 6d. There is still a plentiful supply, but the consumption continues of a satisfactory nature, and prices are lower than fur a long period. Rapeseed Oil is held with firmness, pale at 37s and brown 365, at which a good business has been done, and the supply does not get larger. Palm is much wanted and realised further advanced rates, deliveries also continue to exceed arrivals—fine has been selling at 33s 6d to 345, and low to good 30s to 335. Cocoa. Nut met with more attention, yet there is no advance to record in the value, as Ceylon can be obtained at 39s to 40s, and Cochin at 4Us to 425. Of Olive there is yet a scanty supply, and as the trade are desirous to operate prices rule high; they range at 491 to 501 per tun for Gallipoli, 47l to 48/ for Spanish and Sicily, and 45/ to 46/ for Barbary, Levant, and Portugal. The consump tion is still getting larger, and is likely so to. continue. Lard Oil is not much in demand, and can be obtained at 43s to 445. Ground Nut is also dull of sale, at 35s to 36s per cwt. 0 I 4 BOILER EXPLOSION AND FIRE AT MANCHESTER. On Saturday TriornirTg,ataqua;ter before eleven o'clock, the workpeople employed in Dy che-street mill, near Rochdale-road, were thrown into a state of great alarm by a loud explosion, and such an escape of steam, as filled the yards and the whole building. It was immediately found that the mill was on fire in a number of places, which spread with furious ra pidity. There were at the time about three hundred people on the premises, and as they had all to pass through a narrow door to make their escape, and the whole place was full of steam, so that none could find their way out—as the steam continued for some time time to rush with immense force across the yard through which they h a d t o p ass , th e consternation which was produced was almost indescribable. from sm to A rush was at once made to the entrance door; many who were unable to escape by the door t g t ee t s o ge u rco t oun o nd f d . t a h n e dN l oow t h irder sooner w st i o n r d ih o e as w d s , the threw an and steam sotmheemeel themselves ro e somewhat abated than it was discovered that the boiler had exploded in such a manner as to scatter the fire com pletely over one end of the mill and into e ver y win dow. The pile of buildings is in the form of a square, haring a yard in the centre. On the left from the entrance stood the boilers and engine-house, in front the main body of the mill, and on the right the ware house. That boiler nearest the middle of the yard had burst, and swept the contents of the fire hole, so as to scatter them over the whole of the 'warehouses immediately opposite. A large quan tity of brick and iron work connected with the boiler was also blown against the building; the mas sive iron door was thrown with terrible force against the wall across the yard. Many parties were struck with the burning coals and other materials, which in flicted some severe scalds, burns, and bruises, but we have not heard of any loss of life. The mill being chiefly occupied by power-loom weavers, the material was very combustible, and as the fire had been. thrown into every room from the top to the bottom of the warehouse, that part of the building was one mass of flames in a short space of time. Engines were speedily on the spot and in full play, but the superintendent at once pronounced it impos sible to save the building, and in less than an hour from the explosion only the bare walls were left. The mill was surrounded by small dwelling-houses, and of course the utmost consternation was produced amongst their occupiers. With great exertions, how ever, they were preserved. The mill was occupied by four tenants, three of whom were power-loom weavers, and the fourth a small-ware manufacturer. The loss is variously estimated at from ten to twenty thousand pounds, most of which is covered by in surances. It is stated that the catastrophe was oc casioned by some defect in the boiler. BLOCKING EVENT.—A melancholy catastrophe oc curred at Rayleigh, on Tuesday lest, the wife of a re spectable labourer, named Finch, having drowned herself and infant in a pond. It appears that about four o'clock on the above morning her husband and a lodger got up to attend to the horses on Mr. Beadel's farm, at Rayleigh, where they work: they returned to breakfast about five o'clock, and while at their meal the wife came down stairs with the child in her arms; after sitting a short time she complained of pain, and made an excuse to go down the garden ; not returning, however, her husband became anxious and went to look after her, but not find ing her where he expected and receiving no reply to his repeated. calls, he continued his search, and at length discovered her with her infant fastened to her in a pond contiguous to the cottage. Medical aid was immediately procured, but it was of no avail, life being quite extinct. Deceased, who has left four or five children, had recently been confined and was only churched on Sunday last. An inquest was held on Wednesday last, before W. Codd, Esq., coroner, when a ♦erdict was returned of -" Found drowned."—.Essex Herald. INSURANCE C Name of Company, Albion .. .. .. ..

(From the Lendon New Price Current of Oct. 10.) SUGAR. —To-day the demand decreased for sugar for all purposes, and a decline in the value of most sorts took place.

Bonded crushed Sugar is in good demand at 26s to 275. Of Loaves large parcels have been taken at 29s Gd to 30s for 9 and 10lbs Hamburgh. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauri tius Sugar offered at public sale was large, and amounted to 8,901 bags, nearly the whole of which was taken in at about the former value; middling to fine yellow at 36s 6d to 395. A small part sold—low and middling yellow 34s 6d to 355, fine brown 38s 6d to 345, out of condition 27s to 38s per cwt.
