EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION. Yesterday (Friday) mornino:, at the early hour of two o clock the nei g hb our h ood of H igh street, Deptford, anal its immediate vici n ity, was aroused from its usual quietude, by the outbr ea k o f a most d i sastrous f i re upon the premises in the occupancy of Mr. Parks, butcher, situate at No. 12, Flagon• row , w i t hi n a short distance of the Deptford railway station. The building contained only six rooms, but it extended backwards a considerable distance, and was closely bounded on either side by shops and dwellings. The issue of a great sheet of flames•from the kitchens, over the roof, caused some of the neighbours to make the alarming discovery. At that time Mr. and Mrs. Parks, with a female domestic, were in their beds asleep, and nearly ten minutes were lost in snaking them fully sensible of the great danger to which they were exposed. After repeated knockings at the street-door, they at last made their appearance at the front window ; a ladder was procured from the public-house opposite, and with assistance the inmates all effected their escape, and without meeting with any personal injury. The intelligence having been sent to her Majesty's dock-yard, with all speed, Mr. Inspector Field started to the spot with one of the engines belonging to that establishment. Its efficacy, however, was greatly retarded in conse quence of no water being procurable from the mains. During the time lost in waiting for water the fire con 'tinned to spread with more than usual rapidity, and in less than half an hour from its first discovery, it had travelled through every portion of the premises, and had communicated to the houses on each side. The scene then became one of painful excitement. The roofs and first floors of Nos. 13 and 11, occupied respectively by 'Mr. Turner, tailor, and Mr. Nelson, chesenionger, were, I;iiiiiing --away most furiously, whilst the inmates were busily engaged below in their night-dresses removing what little of their property they could lay their hands upon. The fire still progressing, a mounted police con stable was dispatched to town, requesting the aid of the London engines. Immediately upon the intelligence reaching Southwark-bridge station, Mr. Henderson, one of the chief officers of the London Brigade, proceeded to the scene with his engines, and was followed by Mr. Connorton, with the engine and firemen belonging to the West of England Company. Before water could Le obtained from the mains the fire had made such ravagcs that Mr. Parks' premises were all but consumed, and the heat was so great, that at one time it was greatly feared the whole row of buildings on the opposite side of the road would become ignited. To keep them cool water was frequently discharged against them. After the lapse of about an hour water began to flow from the Kent Water Company's pipes, from which the Dockyard engine was set to work, and with the aid of the police and firemen the flames were, at half-past four o'clock, mas 'tered, and in the course of another half hour or so they were completely extinguished. The total damage is very considerable, and is fully detailed in the subjoined certified report, as sent to Mr. Braidwood, the Superin tendent of the Fire Brigade. MANOR OF LORD SALISBURY. It is about fourteen miles from London, and on the completion of the London and York Railway passing by it, it will be within twenty minutes' ride of the great metropolis. It comprehends a very PRETTY VILLA ABODE, KNOWN AS LAUREL COTTAGE, quite unpretending, but with great capability ; to achieve this, in candour, it is made known that an outlay of 2001. or 300/. will be Indispensable ; this, with the aid of a clever artiste, will restore it to its ancient renown, and render it fully adequate to all the legi. timate wants of a citizen or respectable family. THE REV. G. M. MYERS has domesticated here for several years; at Michaelmas his occu pation will cease, and the purchaser may have possession at a month's notice. The situation is very prepossessing ;itis a little removed from, but in full view of, the high north road; the gardens which encircle it are improved by thriving plantations, and the villa is adorned by a large conservatory and grapery ; the coach house and stables, and the farm-buildings, are shut out of view, and fully ample. The neighbourhood is very sociable, and the society select. The ensemble has A PARKISH CHARACTER, EXTENDING TO THIRTY.THREE ACRES of rich meadow and pasture, refreshed when in need by the streamlet that divides it ; and the other boundary is the HIGH NORTH TURNPIKE ROAD it is immediately vis-a-vis to MR. TROTTER'S PARK AND LODGE GATES, and only a short distance from the mansion of George Byng, Esq., THE WORTHY M.P. FOR MIDDLESEX. The present occupier of the land is Mr. Taylor, of South Mims, whose tenancy expires Sept. 29 this year. The rent for the whole is only One Hundred Gliineas a year. Its real value may be stated at about ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY POUNDS. There is a considerable frontage to the high road, calculated to build upon successfully. . _ _ The estate can be seen at any time, with the permission of Mr. Taylor, and the villa by asking leave of the Rev. Mr. Myers. Par ticulars had, 21 days before the sale, at the Green Man, Barnet ; of Mine Host of the Green Dragon, New-road (and very near to the property) ; of Messrs. Amory, Sewell, and Moores. solicitors, Throgmorton-street ; at the Auction Mart; and at Mr. George Robins's offices, Covent-garden. A lithographic drawing will accompany the particulars of sale. IMPORTANT TO CAPITALISTS.-THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF CONSIDERABLE EXTENT, IN HIGH REPUTE, AND CARRYING ON AT THIS MOMENT AN IMMENSE TRAFFIC. ivr R. GEORGE ROBINS begs to notify to the Public he is directed by those interested in this values. able Property, to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the 17th October, at Twelve, in One Lot, and perem torily, a VERY PROMISING INVESTMENT, THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF GREA I' EXTENT, situate in Carnarvonshire, North Wales. If it be inquired why a concern that is so highly eulogised should be in the market, it is rejoined (to use a very ancient and very homely adage), " too many cooks frequently spoil the broth." One competent person, possessing a brain farm, will speedily accomplish a❑ that this announcement has in perspective, an.: even more under a talented direction. The Slate is of excellent quality, bf a rich grey.blue colour, and can be had in abundance under a very thin coyer. The work is already about 40 yards wide, and is capable •f being extended to upwards of ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY YARDS, where a large number of men may be employed most advanta. geously, and without the slightest risk. This is an investment af. fording a rare opportunity to any party with moderate capital to REALISE A LARGE FORTUNE. The observations which follow are extracted from a Welsh Paper, and fully demonstrate the aczuracy of the foregoing state ment :—" I have been in Carnarvonshire, to see the Quarry, and my opinion is, that there is something extraordinary in it; it can be made, with a few thousands outlay, THE MOST EXTENSIVE CONCERN OF THIS SORT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. The vein of pure slates is ascertained to bo no less than 180 yards wide, and at least half a mile in length, without any ob struction, and as deep as any parties may feel inclined to go, wherein there is sufficient quantity of that useful material TO SUPPLY THE WHOLE WORLD FOR CENTURIES TO COME; and with good management the profits would—they could not be less than from 100 to 150 per cent. upon the outlay, after it is put in proper order. It will employ many hundred men to great advantage. Another desirable point connected with this concern is, that the cover of earth on the surface is only two or three yards deep, whereas most of the quarries are under ten or fifteen yards corer. The workshops, waggons, and working utensils are in good repair, as also the road, three miles of which has been made at the expense of nearly 2,0001.; THIS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PURCHASE. Another point is worthy of consideration, the work is on the side of the celebrated Carnarvon Hills, and a sufficient declivity affords to the water a cheap conveyance to THE BEAUTIFUL EIGIA LAKE. These splendid waters are full of fish, and consequently afford lots of amusement, and the hill prevents the impossibility of any annoy ance to the works from water. The distance to a capital shipping wharf is only seven miles, and but nine to the intended CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD GREAT RAILWAY. The name of the concern is THE " CEDRYN QUARRY," situate about ten miles from Banger, and the same distance from Conway and Llanrwst, in the centre between the three towns. " It is held under THE RIGHT HON. LORD NEWBOROUGH for an unexpired term of twenty-eight years, which can be extended at any time. " In conclusion, we can only add that the quarry ought to pro. duce a considerable sum, as it is A SURE FORTUNE FOR ANY SPIRITED PARTY whn may be lucky enough to get it." This unpretending statement of facts will convince even those inclined to be sceptical, that it is an investment free from doubt or uncertainty. _ _ Full particulars may be had on' application to Mr. E. Owen, Auctioneer, Ruthin ; to Mr. George Robins, London ; the Waterloo, Liverpool; the Albion, Manchester: and the White Lion, Bristol.

KOLLMAN'S RAILWAY LOCOMO- TIME ENGINE. The improvements Mr. Kollman contemplates by this new locomotive are of great importance, and, if tarred into effect, would contribute much to the safety of railway passengers. These improvements include the capability of traversing curves of any required radius, with speed, diminution of friction, and in crease of safety; of ascending and descending inclines of such gradients as have hitherto been deemed im practicable; of reducing very considerably the ex penditure in the original construction, and in the maintenance and working of every department of the system ; and of increasing materially the general safety and comfort of passengers. The latter point is certainly the most interesting to the public, for though facility in ascending and descending inclines, and the reduction of the expenses caused by wear and tear, are matters of importance to' the proprietors, safety is the great object of the traveller. Mr. Kollman thus explains the advantages to be gained in this respect by the new plan—" The running off the line, to which, in the present state of things, there is so frequent a ten dency, especially in curves of short radius, becomes next to impossible. The reduction of the centre of gravity to so low a position precludes the liability to overturn ; whilst the attachment of the train through out its range to the guide rails by means of the hori zontal wheels, guarantees its security, unless the whole machinery were disrupted and displaced. The avoidance of that injurious and violent process of grinding and sliding on the rails, inseparable from the present defective state of things, involving as it does the unnatural expedients of coning the sv heels, and giving undue and more dangerous play in their lateral range, must not be regarded as a trivial advan tage ; as by these means that oscillating . and vibratory motion peculiarly distressing to most passengers, especially to females, as well as productive of inju rious results to proprietors, is entirely removed, and the carriages will be found to keeptheeoventeer rapid r p o id f their way without swerving or joltin g, h"ev the transit on the direct line, or on such a curve as might call into action centrifugal force. BLUNDERING LEGISLATION . --The Poor-law Amen dment measures haced of hy the young las tse s sion. All the onhumanityeofthe Just people, Eng land, bestowed their talk and thei backed tediousness on it n i g h t after night, and yet, instead of ameliorating o ne a ll eged Obnoxious law of the old Act, it fearfully and shamefully aggravates it. The second clause enacts that any single woman being pregnant, or having had an illegitimate child, instead of going to the overseeer, is to go before the magistrate, and he, satisfied of the trnth of her state ment, may make an order on the putative father for the payment of two shillings and sixpence a week. So far so well ; but then the woman must collect the money herself from her seducer, and the said seducer may, by serving her with notice, retrieve the case to the sessions, and unless she can, at her own expense, confront him there, he gets off scot free ! and she, what do you think? —unless she then can herself support the child, she is to be committed as a rogue and a vagabond. This throw ing the unfortunate and the vicious a second time in the way of temptation struck the Bishop of Exeter, and Go vernment promised to amend it. His Worship the Mayor and Mr. Rushton, who has given more attention to the poor -law operations than any magistrate on the bench, went to London to have it altered : and they were told that it should be altered ; yet, in the hurry of legislation, it remained to perplex overseers and puzzle the magistrates.—L iverpool Journal jib ~~ ~) STATE OF TRADE. FOREION WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, SEPT. 0.--Theta has been an animated demand for most descriptions of 'o reign Wools this week, and the sales effect( d have been considerable in amount. The high rites wools are realising in the foreign markets gives, likewi,e, a very firm tone to prices in this market. YORK WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 6.-r—The. market was very badly attended today, and the show of wool only very small ; not much b tsiness was done. Prices me steady. Mixed tops of hog .and ewe realising 14s, to 1.55. per store. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 6.—The markt t - continues much in the same state, and both combing and short wools are held at stationary prices ; but sales have again been wry limited, notwithstanding the great con sumption that is going on. LEEDS.—Our Cloth Markets continue in the same state as for some time past, although there has at no time been more goods manufactured than at the present tune. The Cloth Halls, nevertheless, continue to be very scantily supplied with goods, whilst the demand for winter goods is brisker than has been the case ler tome years, at this period of the year. Prier s remain :tt ady. There has alto been a full aw rage amount of busing ss done .in the warehouses this week. The state of the harvest,•and the downv , ard tendency of the corn mat kets, induce the buyers to purchase with mere spirit. On the whole, the aspect of trade is brighter than for many years, with the prospect of good empl. yrnent in the ma nufacturing districts during the %slut TRADE OF HOLMFIRTIL—During . the laq month large amount of business has been done in all kinds of goods. The long drought had materially diminished the quantity of goods sent to market, but since the ruin the mills have all been in full operation. Etcry branch of worknien meet with ready employment, indeed some manufacturers complain of a scarcity of hands. Goods are now almost wholly made to order, and, with the prospect of a most bountiful harvest, we may fairly pre. sume that this district will be blest wish a flourishing trade for a length of time to come. Cannot our manu facturers now discern the connection between cheap foe(' and increased markets ? HECIEMONDWIKE BLANKET MARKET, SEPT. s.—The attendance at this market both on Monday and to-day has been good, and the demand for gmds unabated. The transacted both by sample and to order has been-greater than for some Thursdays past. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY -EV EN INC.—We have had on the whole but a dullish week for most kinds of cloth, with prices for nearly all kinds and qualities rather in favour of the buyer. The market is very flat indeed fur such goods as are generally purchased on 7lndia, and' China. account. The bothe trade is very brisk, the drapers buying very freely, now- that no doubt exists as to the bountiful harvest being well secured. The calico printers were neve r b us i er; but prices do not im prove for this description of our manufacture. Yarns are in brisk demand, and prices fully as high.—Leeds Mercury. REMARKABLE CIRCUMSTANCE:—On Sunday even ing last, about seven o'clock; a covey of ten partridges, which appear to have been disturbed and frightened from their accustomed haunts, alighted in Silv er - s t reet , in this town. Five of the birdsC were caught, and the remainder managed to make their escape.—Doncaster Gazette. The, contractor for the southern portion of the North British Railway has commenced operations at Marshal Meadow, about three miles north of Berwick, where are to be placed the stables and the principal depot of materiel for the works ; at this place the railway will run very close to, and parallel with, the sea banks, which are very lofty and precipitous, consisting of rcd sand stone, through which the cuttings, here very deep, will have to be excavated for a considerable distance. etc - castle Adveriiscr. . THE WESTERN DISTRICT BANK.—The following circular announcing the close of the business of this es tablishment, and of its various branches in Cornwall, has been issued by the Directors to the Shareholders:— " Sir,—l am directed to acquaint you that at a spe- Cial meeting of the Proprietors of Use Western District Banking Company for Devon and Cornwall, held at the Bank-office here, on Wednesday, the 14th inst., aMI statement of the affairs of the Company having been read and laid on the table, whereby it appeared that the losses of the co-partnership have exhausted all the sur plus or guarantee fund, and also one-fourth part of the capital of the co-partnership, which has been actually paid by the Proprietors, the Chairman thereupon de clared the co-partnership to be dissolved, in accordance with the 38th clause of the deed of settlement of the Company.

DOSCASTEIL—THE iiinVES T.—There never ha., been known a period of more splendid weather for reap ing harvest than that which has marked the present sea son. Bright sunny days with grateful breezes, and clear and tranquil, and, in some instances, frosty nights, have successively prevailed. Nor, at any former time, has greater activity prevailed in the fields, than has been the case this year. Early and late the sickle and the scythe have been at work ; and the harvest waggons busily em ployed in securing the crops in barn or stack. Indeed, many of the fields have been already ploughed up in pre paration for the next crops. 'We have before alluded to the thinness of the crop of wheat in some of the higher localities. But, on the broad score, th e cro p is a full average—if not more. Besides, the grain is of superior quality: Abundance and cheapness will diffuse 'around their maßifold advantages, and contribute more in the way of substantial good than anything else could possibly do ; while the feeling of gratitude should be awakened for the blessings of an all-bountiful Providence.—Don caster Gazette. LAND COMMISSION. —On Saturday the Earl of Devon, as Chairman of the Commission, took his seat in the Grand Jury-room, Tralee, together with his brother Commissioners, Sir Robert Alexander Fergusson, Bait, George Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Nicholas Reding ton, and John Wynne, Esqs. His Lordship stated that he was prepared to receive evidence, but regretted that none of the gentlemen named were in attendance. His Lordship and the other members of the Commission re mained at Walpole's Hotel, and thenee proceeded yes terday to Killarney. —Cork Southern Reporter. JURISDICTION OF MAGISTRATES.—HORSE-IfIRR: In reply to a statement by a Magistrate of this county, forwarded for the opinion of the law officers of the Crown; Mr. Brewster has given the following opinion : —" If the owner works with the horse, the hire of both may be recovered before Magistrates ; but if the owner does not work with his horse, if he lets out his horse and a hired person to attend him, or if he lets out his horse alone, the magistrates have no jurisdiction."— Tralee Chronicle. NERVOUS DEArNEss.--Lately Dr. Cronin, of Craven-street, Strand, called the attention of the me dical profession to the efficacy of Arnica Montana in the successful treatment of this distressing complaint. A paper was read last evening at the Strand Dispensary, with the intention' of pointing out the peculiar cases in which this medicine has been used, and the result at tending its application. In introducing several of the most distressing, the doctor remarked that all had the advice of several of the most distinguished aurists in this country, and many on the Continent, and that others hid submitted to a most painful and useless operation of the throat, which invariably tended to make the hearing more imperfect. In illustrating the latter statement, the lecturer noticed the case of a young man named Ryan, residing at 13, Holland-street, Soho-square, who, for slight deafness, had submitted to this operation, and suf fered so much from pain and loss of blood that he was confined to his bed for a fortnight, from which he got up very deaf, but by the use of Arnica his hearing was com pletely restored. Having forcibly remarked on several cases similarly treated, the lecturer next alluded to the following interesting case :—Mr. Dupre, of Jersey, he remarked, was completely deaf of one ear for thirty years, in consequence of the explosion of a gun on bo ar d a frigate when in chase o f a French frigate ; and that lecturer Several the other had become within the last twelve month s concluded nearly as bad, yet, although pronounced by an emi nent aurist in London incurable, within a month th e h ear i ng in e a r f f t e e c r t l w y h r i e e s h t restored. were both th n a noticed, rs was i lish a report of the cases, the mode _ r cases ha lecture by remarking, he intended immedia tely he to pub of Arnica, and the method of u s i n i t , preparing the TILE LYCEUM TuEATRE.--The owing fll distin guished personages h ave h onoured this theatre with their presence withi n the last Highness Prince William few days :—His Royal Prussia, the Duke of De vonshire, the Duke and Duc h ess r and Duchess o f Montrosethel3k e a ßeaurt, the Duke Bedford, the D u k e and ' Duchess st n er ' t he Duch ess Duk e of of Leeds, the D u k e o f Rutland, the Marquis and Ma rchioness of Clanricarde, the Marquis and Mar chioness o f Londonderry , the Marquis of Wor cester, the Marchioness of Conyngham, the Marchioness of Westmeath, Dowager Countess of Essex, Earl of Chesterfield, the Earl and Countess of Jersey, the Earl and Countess of Westmoreland, Earl and Coun tess of Weinyss, Earl and Countess of Wicklow awl family, Lady Suffield, Lord Wrottesley, Lord Auckland, Lady Honeywood, Lord Cranstoun, Lo r d 1 a idstone, Lord Tenterden, Lord Seaham, Lord Fitzroy Somerset, Lord Ernest Bruce, Lord Listowel, Lady Antrim, , Lord Paget, Lord Ranelagh, Lord Gardner, Lord Strafford, Lady Joddrell, Lady Kinloch, Lord Di▪ llon, Lord Arthur Lennox, Lady Malcolm, Lord Dorches ter, Lord Rendleshana, Lord Adolphus Fi▪ tzclarence, Lord George Loftus, Lady Stewart, Lord Augustus Fitzclarence, Lady Manley, Sir Sydney Her bert, Sir John Lon ther, General Evans, Mr. Culling Smith, Lady Jane Goding, Lady Fremantle, General Hodgson, Sir F.
