The Journal des Debats, in to y to a charge brought against the Minister of Pal4k Wbrks, by the Nationol, 1 3* the haste with which the contract for the Northetti railway line was made, suffitiently explains the "The Company," it states, "is obliged to re;til l ourse to the State, at an interest of 3 per cent., the a'dms expended, or to be expended ; by the State for the works of the railroad between Faris and the Belgian frontier, and that that interest was to run from the date of the homologation of the adjudication. 11400,000 f. have been laid out in the construction of the two roads from Lille and Valenciennes to the frontier of Belgium. and credits to an amount of i1,000,000f. have been opened in I the Department of Public Works for the construction of the line between Faris, Lille, and Valenciennes. The sums ex— pended, or to be expended, by the State accordingly amount to about 90,000,000 f., and the interest due by the Company, from the date of the homologatleo, to 2,700,000 f., or 225,000; per month, or 7,500 f per day. What would the National have said, if the Minister, by delaying the homologation of the adjudication, had retarded the period at which so considerable an interest commenced to ran ?" The same journal makes some severe comments on the dispatches of Count WORONZOFF, giving an account of what has been called " Victories in the Caucasus," and contends that there had deen no victories at all, but decided defeat. The object of the Russian General was to separate certain tribes by cut ting off their communications, and had employed four divi sions of his army for that purpose, which entirely failed—all these divisions falling back, one upon the other, and at last retiring in a body. The official journal, therefore, conclades that the expedition into the Daghestan had led to no result, and that Count WORONZOFF had been created a Prince for doing nothing. The following remmks relative to the late commercial treaty between France and Naples appear 111 the Government paper : " The relations between the two kingdoms were regulated ever since the - family compact of the Bourbons, that is, for nearly SOO years, by a system of mutual concessions, guaranteeing certain privi leges to each, but which, not being stipulated in a formal and special treaty, could be easily revoked or eluded. On the tither hand, the kingdom of the Two Nicllles was precluded by a tacit convention from extending to any other country the attrantages enjoyed by French trade in the Neapolitan dominions. A first treaty, signed on the 28th of February, 1817, merely confirmed those immunities, Which consisted principally in a reduction of 10 per cents lit the duties on French goods imported into the kingdom of Naples OR board French or Neapolitan vessels. The treaty of the 14th of July, 1845, for mally abolished all exclusive privileges, while it maintained for a period of ten years the above reduction of 10 per cent. in the import duties on French merchandise. The Neapolitan Government pledged itself, by the same treaty, not to re-establish the old immunities in favour of any nation whatsoever, and at the same time not to grant to any other State, pending the duration of the treaty, the advantages secured by it to France. The Neapolitan Government had, moreover, consented to a diminution of one-half in the import duties on French china, glass, and crystal ; of one-third on bronze and copper works, such as clocks, candelabra, chains, locks, &c. •, of one-half on articles of fashion, bonnets, caps, shawls, handkerchiefs, feathers, artificial flowers, mantillas, lace, crape, veils, hangings, &c. ; of one-third on leather and skins, co loured or varnished ;of 5-i2ths on wrought gd and jewellery. Those reductions are to take place Independently oft e reduction ef 10 per cent. above-mentioned. According to the documents lately published by the Minister of Commerce, the intercourse between the two countries amounts to about 18 0,000,000 f 130,000,000 f. for the continental possessions, and .60,000,000 f. for Sicily."

The prosecutrix's evidence showed that a quarrel had taken place, which had, however, left undecided the.question of " which was the better woman," and Welsh on the suc ceeding day went. up to Horogan's room, and politely re quested her to come down to the yard, in order to settle this important point. The prisoner not having the rules of the ring before her, had recourse to a chopper, with which " she hoe the witness a crack over the eye that " kilt her entirely." She. was conveyed to the hospital, where the wound was dressed. ::c -.- The Recorder elicited from the prosecutor the 'startling truth that "the key had been twice turned on her for a bit of a fight," and that she had made sundry appearances before the justices. Mr. PAYNE addressed the jury for the defence. The RECORDER summed up, and the jury returned a ver dict of Not Guilty of the felony, but Guilty of a common assault. The sentence was that, considering the period which the prisoner had already passed in confinement (three weeks), she should be further imprisoned for ten days. FORGERY.—Howard Augustine Styles, 51, . surgeon, was charged with having feloniously uttered a forged acceptance to a bill of exchange for 38/. 13s. 6d., with intent to defraud James Cooke. lie was likewise detained on two similar charges. The prisoner having craved that his case might be allowed to stand over till to-morrow, as he, for want of means, ,could not fee counsel before that time, the Recorder said that he should at once, under the circumstances, accede to the request. The case, was, therefore, allowed to stand over. 'UTTERING FORGED ORDERS FOR GOODS.—Henry Sheen, alias Catrnur , aged 22, b oo kbi n d er, was indicted for stealing twenty-three reams of paper, value 151., the property of Win. Try hacke and Co. ' • also for utte r i ng forged orders for goods, &c. Mr. Doane wa s for the prosecution; the prisoner was un defended. Mr. Knight, stationer, of Budge-row, Watling-street, proved that the prisoner had, on the 23d May last, come to his place with an order from a Mr. Catmur, of Bethnal Green road, for three reams of " brown," three reams of " hands," &c. Witness asked several questions, to which satisfdctory answers were given, and Mr. 'Pegg, of Cheapside, was gßren as. a reference. The lot of goods was made up (eight reams in all), valued 21. 35., and given to the prisoner. Subsequent inquiry proved the prisoner had no authority from Mr. Cat mur to purchase these goods, and he was therefore taken into custody Henry Catmur, father of the prisoner, had not authorised his son to get goods in his name, nor had he seen the paper so purchased. The prisoner argued that he had never mentioned " his father," that the goods were for himself (Henry Catmur), and he had purchased goods before, which had been paid for. The RECORDER summed up, and the jury found the pri soner Guilty. Mr. DosicE explained that there were other charges of a similar character against him. He had also been convicted on two previous occasions of larceny. An officer of police said that on inquiry he found that the prisoner had been pursuing " that game" for a long time. The RECORDER, in passin sentence, remarked exhibited by the p r i soner in the course of the upon the art se frauds, but considering his yea rs the Court would limit the punishment to the highest which the law allowed for obtaining goods under false pretences. The sentence, therefore, was that he be transported for seven years. STEALING.— G eorge Morton was indicted for stealing from the premises of Mr. James Cooper, of Bond-street, twenty five yards of cloth, valued 10/. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor's porter, that as he was opening his master's premises, the prisoner entered the shop and stole he propertysoner found Guilty, and sentenced to ten ears. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to ten years' transportation was The prisoner had been found have a notoriously bad character, and a previous conviction for burglary was proved against him. I 'Thomas Butler and Edgar Sargeant were indicted for breaking and entering the premises of Charles Lowe, of Seven Dials, St. Giles's, and stealing therefrom a quantity of brass. The prosecutor stated that he had fastened his premises on the night ofJuly ad, and the next morning he found that the premises bad been broken open and a quantity of pro perty taken away. 11. Holloway, of Crown-street, Soho, dealer in brass, proved that the prisoners brought a quantity of that material for him to purchase in the same month, which he purchased, and sold to Abraham Emanuel. Abraham Emanuel proved purchasing the brass from Mr. Holloway in July, and that produced was the same he had then purchased. The prosecutor identifiedis own property. ' SUN, LONDON, TVIISDA Y V. - V PNI NG, SEPTEMBER 16, 1845. . PAvisE addressed the ,fury for the prisoner Edgar Sar geant, and having'dalied 'o.veral witnesses as to character,Tlie - Rconnifit, summed up the case, and the jury found a verditt bt Not Guilty in both cases. SOUTH WARliz—Vr tilS DAY.) Two men, mined Lander and Street, were charged with coUlrAttffig assault on a Mr. William Jarovis, on the occa br a wedding. The complainant stated that op. the flietieding day his son was married, otv 'On+. itV.Siint a great number of people assenablath tne rougk music" was set going. He (corn )katialit) went to the public-house to order the supper beets; and while at the bar the two defendants came Up; and asked. him what he would " stand." ..Ile gave aii eVaSiVe ah War; and went home. And When ha gut mu the dour he round the ffilleWed hiini and they cornitiehted 'ringing anti ktiCkking at the doer With great violence. He desired theni te desist; but they refused, and ultimately struck him. A scene of,rildt and confusion ensued, which billy was put an end td by the police interfering, and taking the defendants into Custody. Mr. Corrnccamtt laid he regretted to hear that such a practice t beating tin pots,and kettles at a 'wedding still leaving in the metropolis ' of a civilised. COUlAry ; and that it having been proved the defentlltlitswere prominent inthedis graceful affair, and Mil assaulted the complainant, he should therefore adjtiilge them to find two sureties of 101. each; and enter into their own recognisances in 20/., to keep the - peace and be of good behaviour for six months. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) Da+tie" Lonnor, a drover,-was charged with beating and Wbiiiiding police-constable 238. G, so as to do him grievous bodily harm. The constable deposed that the prisoner was sitting in the middle of the pavement, on the previous night, near Smith field, He was just recovering from a fit of intoxication, and Witness, fearing he would be run over, or trampled upon, and seeing that he obstructed the pavement, told him to get up. He took no notice of the command, but remained in the same position. Witness then seized him for the purpose of raising him, when the prisoner turned upon him, knocked him into the kennel, and rolled him there until his dress was completekr Saturated with filth. At last he got upon his legs, but the prisoner again got him down, and kicked him on the head with all his force. Wit ness, seeing that the prisoner was resolved upon murdering him, by a desperate struggle got him underhim ; the prisoner clung to him like a bulldog,.and seizing the fleshy part of his leg between his teeth, pierced the thick trousers and strong hoots until he made the teeth almost meet in the flesh. Wit ness, by a well-directed blow, obliged him to relinquish his hold, but he seized his wrist in his mouth and inflicted a severe wound upon it. At length assistance arrived, and he Was secured. Police-sergeant Cottam, 10 G, said, in all his life, be never saw any one in so shocking a condition as the constable, the blood was streaming from his face, his clothes were saturated with filth, and he was scarcely able to stand erect from the injuries he had received. The prisoner was sentenced to one month's imprisonment in the House of Correction, without the power of releasing himself by the payment of a fine. REGISTRATION COURTS. (THIS DAY.) CITY OF LONDON. T m he Court resumed its Inquiry this morning at ten o'clock, when the list of LiVerymen was entered upon. The first ease on which any discussion arose was that of Marriott, described in the overseers' list as residing on Ludgate -hill. It was objected to him that this was not his proper residence, as he had removed to Upper Albany-street, Regent's Park. It was maintained on the other side that this did not affect his right to vote as .a Liveryman. The REVISING BARRISTER said, as it was a point of im portance, ho would take time to consider his decision. The next point of importance raised was in the case of Edward Brown, a member of the Bakers' Company. It was Objected to him that his freedom had been taken up since 1831, and therefore, according to the intention of the Reform Act, his name was not entitled to be on the register. After considerable argiuneut, as the decision would affect several hundred votes, it was agreed that a case should be selected, to be fully argued on Friday next. MARKET NEWS.•‘--(THIS DAY.)

SuGAn.—The market CO fo M r British Plantation is firm, and fully previous prices have been obtained for the quantity sold, but only a limited business has been done privately. About 750 casks have been disposed of, inclusive of those brought to auction. The public sales have consisted principally of 100 casks Barbadoes, 180 casks Berbice, 7,642 bags Mau ritius, 1,132 bags Bengal, 430 boxes white Havannah. Nearly all the East and West India found buyers and went off with spirit at fully previous prices, and in some instances rather dearer for the brown descriptions of Mauritius, of which the parcel chiefly consisted, and being mostly in small lots no accurate quotations can be given. All the Havannah was withdrawn much above the value, viz., at 40s to 41s 6d fur very low to mid greyish white, but of fair quality. The only transaction which has transpired privately worth reporting consists of a small cargo of yellow Havannah, which has been sold afloat at 30s 6d, deliverable at a near port on the Continent ; and for a large cargo .

It should have been " the claim was disallowed," and on the authority, as stated by Mr. Moylan, the Revising Barrister, of the Court of Common Pleas, which, in last Hilary Term, decided that a lodger has no right to be regktered. ...WALKING MATCH. — Mountjoy ' s great match of walking fifty miles in thirteen hours, twenty miles back wards, for six successive days, commenced yesterday, at six o'clock. There could not be a more unfavourable day, the rain pouring heavily ; but not at all daunted, the pedestrian pursued his course, and accomplished the ten miles in the fol lowing time :---First ten miles in one hour and fifty minutes, the second ten miles in one hour and fifty-eight minutes. The walking backwards the first ten miles was completed in two- hours and three-quarters, -the second ten miles back wards in two hours and fifty- eight minutes. The fifty hurdles were afterwards leaped by Mountjoy in less than the specified time, ten minutes. He resumes this day at half past five A.nr 2 from the Red Cow Ta vern , D a l s t on. NAVAL RETINEMENT.—We • understand that the senior commanders at the naval pits, and in the metropolis, are preparing a memorial to the Right Hon. the Earl of Had dington, soliciting of his Lordship thd recognition of the jus tice and expediency of applying to them the same principle of retirement which has been recently bestowed on the veteran post captains. ACCIDENT AT THE VICTORIA THEATRE.—An ac cident occurred last night, at the Victoria Theatre, of rather a serious nature. It a pp ears th a t while an actor, of the name of Harris, was waiting for his cue at one of the wings, a musket in the hands of a. supernumerary accidentally went off, the wadding striking Harris's eye. He was immediately conveyed to the shop of a surgeon in the neighbourhood, and ultimately to Charing-cross Hospital, where he now lies in a very precarious state. It is feared that the sight of the eye is entirely gone. SHOWER OF DUST IN ORKNEY.—A friend just returned from Orkney acquaints us of the following interest ing fact :—On the night betwixt the 2d and 3d September, current, the wind blowing freely from the N.W., there fell upon the whole mainland of Orkney a shower of fine impal pable dust, evidently of volcanic origin. The dust fell in such quantities as to cover the whole island, and admit of being easily gathered. It is presumed to have been caused by an eruption of Mount Hecla in Iceland, as asimilar pheno menon which occurred many years ago was ascertained to have proceeded from that cause. We have seen a quantity of the dust, which exactly resembles finely ground pumice stone.—Dunclee Warder. LANDLORDS AND TENANTS IN TIPPERARY.— William Beamish, Esq., Beaumont, near Cork, paid his an nual visit this week to his estate in the neighbournood of Bor risoleigh. He personally visited each cottage and farm house —inquired into the wants and wishes of the tenants, and readily supplied them by the exhibition of a • princely gene rosity. lie awarded the usual premiums to the neatest cot tages and most cleanly farm yards, and directed his agent to employ drainers at his own expense, and to provide timber and slates for all the tenants who chose to build walls suffi cient to support the same. A widow who , e lands had been subdivided between two sons, got an annuity of 101. for' life, and some tenants who had been evicted formerly were re stored. In the same neighbourhood, there is a landlord who seldom if ever stirs abroad without being armed to the teeth, and accompanied by a few policemen I If Tipperary bad all such landlords as Mr. Beamish, there would be no crime, and no need of policemen.—Tipperary Vindicator. ADMIRALTY STORES. --The contract for the supply of cocoa for the use of the Admiralty department has been accepted by the following parties, viz. :—Mr. A. De Arroyave, for 52 tons, including 3 tons for screenings ; and Mr. J. Um phelby, for 43 tons, including 3 tons also for screenings; and the Lords Commissioners' of her Majesty's Treasury have given instructions for the revenue authorities to permit the same to be removed from the bonded warehouses of the Lon don, St. Katharine, and West India Docks, and deposited among the stores in her Majesty's victualling -yard at Dept ford. free of duty, aggreeably. to the terms of the contract entered into with the Admiralty by them. DISEASE AMONGST FISH.—A disease has attacked the pike and eels in the river Barrow, during the present season, both being frequently faund in a dying state on the surface of the water. The pike seem emaciated, and the Inside of the mouth presents a fungus ulceration, covering the teeth; palate, and tongue, and when the body is opened the stomach Is filled with a green slimy substance.: Eels are seen with little apparent life for a day or so, and afterwards dead in shoal water (the place where all wounded or sick fish swim to); the under part of the body, from. the mouth to the tail, is speckled with blood-red spots, and the mouth is sometimes full of coagulated blood : however, the fish does not seem to be in bad con dition, or to have suffered so long as the pike. The same kinds of fish in the canal about Monastersvan have also suffered from the same malady.—Leinster Express. A. PATRIARCH.—John Matthews, aged 114, re: siding in the parish of -Llandilo Talybout, together with his daughter, applied for relief, for the first time, at a meeting of our Board o f G uar di ans, hel d yesterday.

WO are given to understand that the Go- Vertiors . of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the other colonial authorities, are warmly interested in this most beneficial project. On the proposed • line there is every facility for executing the works upon a most economical scale. The advantage to the colonies themselves cannot be at present duly estimated. The advantages. of railway com munication, as compared with canal conveyance, is admitted on all bands, and agreat deal of anxiety was expressed as to the amount of success which would attend the plan when developed to British:capitalists, as from them a considerable portion of the necessary funds would, in the first instance, be required. It appears by the Royal Gazette, of New Brunswick, that there had been a considerable improvement in the re venue of the cOlony, which had been augmented in the first six months of this year by 15,8001., as compared with the returns of the corresponding period of 1844. The accounts from New York state that the stream of emigration had set in there for the season with increased activity within 24 hours there had been reported not less than 2,687 steerage passengers, of which 1,755 were from the United Kingdom. Including the arrivals of the two previous days, more than 3.000 persons had landed.. A letter from Albany says,-"‘ This is a great country, but how long will it take to fill it up at this rate? The arrival of 1,500 settlers a day at 'New York, and as many more at the other S ports of the United States and Canada, will enormously increase Uncle Sam's interesting and miscellaneous family.

PIRATES OFF SKYROS. • _ A letter, received at their agent at Salonica - , Of the 27th of August last, mentions a report of pirates having been met with in that neighbourhood. A vessel of the country had been boarded and plundered off Skyros of provisions and effects. The Turkish Vite-admiral, Hassan Pasha, had gone in search of them. The pirate vessels are said to be four in number. ARRIVAL of the GREAT BRITAIN. Littnroot, SENT. 15.—The Great Britain arrived tnis morning, shortly befortfht o'clock • her intelligence has, ' however been anticipated by the arrival of the Hibernia. Captain Hosken reports very satisfactorily of the po . wers• of the sersw, and of the ship's machinery. During the whole passage the engines have never been stopped, but have worked with the greatest possible regularity. The reason of the pas sage being of somewhat longer duration than was expected is the difficulty of keeping a sufficient supply of steam. This difficulty her commander and engineer are, however, fully confident of overcoming in her future voyages. Capin Hosken sailed from New York on the afternoon of the 30th, and at 7 P.M. of that day - the pilot left her. On her passage she has experienced ;very little westerly wind, and one day, in a fine breeze, the'ship made 298 miles, from'noon to noon. It appears that during the whole voyage the vessel was ' never worked at a greater pressure than 600 horse power, although her engines are of 1,000 horse power. The natural consequence of this was, that instead of making, as it is cal culated she can, seventeen and a half revolutions per minute, she averaged but thirteen. This is stated to arise from an insufficiency of the furnaces and boilers, which are both too small. The following table shows' the degrees the vessel mada and the degrees run in each 24 hours : SAILED FROM NEW-YORK, SATURDAY, AUG. 30, 4 P.M. Noon. • Lat. Long. Distance. Sunday, Aug. 31 Monday, Sept. 1 Tuesday, Sept. 2 • 41 09 ... •. 63 23 Wednesday, Sept. 3 Thursday, Sept.. 4 Friday, Sept. 5 Saturday, Sept. 8 .. , ..... 47 16 Sunday, Sept. 7 Monday,,Sept. 8 49 38 Tuesday, Sept. .. Wednesday, Sept. 10 Thursday, Sept. 11 ... Friday, Sept. 12 .. 52 , 20 ...... 15 00 ... Saturday Morning, Sept. 13, made land. The vibration so generally complained of in paddle-wheel steamers is scarcely felt in the Great Britain, even at the sternmost part of the vessel, and midships, and at the fore, it is not at all perceptible ; while, as a proof of the excellence of her machinery, it may ,be mentioned :that, throughout the whole voyage, not a screw or pill became loose. A gale of wind appears to be more calculated to show the vessel's great poWers than a calm. In the former, when the wind keeps the sails stiff, she behaves very well, but when a calm prevails she rolls tremendously. The " rig" of the Great Britain is not yet perfect, and it is, we believe, the intention of her gallant commander, before making his next trip, to effect some important alterations in if. The wire rigging is not found to answer so well as was anticipated. • .• _ During the voyage she carried away .her main-topmast, about half-way dowitke accident the more to be regretted, as it is stated to haie.azisan from the insufficiency of hands to take in the sail on h stiAden squall of wind rising. This insufficiency, it should be stafes;i4 arose: from the desertion of a large portion of the original crew at New York, just as the vessel was upon the point of sailias, which obliged Lieute nant Hosken to make up his number with the best men he could procure on the spot. On attempting to remove the stump of the; broken mast, the day after the accident, two of the crew were seziously injured. One of them had his arm completely smashed— amputation being • performed on the spot by the ship's surgeon': For this poor fellow the passengers subsequently collected a piti:se con taining 251. The weather has been unfavourable, strong easterly winds prevailing nearly throughout the passage. The Great Britain does not appear to have created any par ticular degree of excitement in the New World. The gene ral impression was unfavourable to her, and although visited by very many persons. while lying in dock, there was •a strong prejudice against crossing in her. This will, doubt less, be removed after she has made a few more equally suc cessful runs. The mother of M. Arago, the eminent natural philosopher, died at Estagel, in the eastern Pyrenees, a few days ago, at the advanced age of ninety-one years. DISEASED POTATOES.—Amongst the potatoes in troduced into the London markets a great proportion have proved to be affected with the prevalent disease.—The roots so attacked give out no peculiar appearance to the eye by which the presence of disease may be indicated, but in boil ing it is at once perceptible from the dark mass which they present in the interior. `The dealers are aware of this, and in many of the poorer districii of the metropolis potatoes were sold on Saturday at 41b. and 61b. for 2d. Whatever may have been the cause, it is certain that externally the disease indicates itself by a fungus or moss, producing a decomposi tion of the farinaceous interior. It therefore resembles in many respects the ergot attacking grain and` grasses ; which it was proved at the last meeting of the British Association, at Cambridge, had greatly increased the last two or three years, being probably owing to the great additional increase of animal manures. It may be remarked that in the isle of Wight, where the disease has occurred in its most virulnt form, we lately had the opportunity of observing in many in stances that it was most prevalent in those crops which had been planted on-wheat land which had previously been ma nured with guano, The use of these diseased potatoes for domestic purposes cannot be too much condemned.—Hamp shire Telegraph. SUPPOSED ROBBERY AND INCENDIARISM.—ShortIy before twelve o'clock on Saturday night, the police-constable who was on duty in Drummond-street, in "passing Mr. Christie's premises, the Royal George Hotel, discovered that the front door was open. Having aroused the inmates, Mr. Christie hastened down, when his attention was called to a strong smell of burning, which appeared to rise from the lower part of the building. Mr. Christie and the constable at once commenced an examination of the premises, and on going into the back kitchen they found a fire burning, whiCh it is suspected was wilfully caused by some person. Upon making a further search, it was ascertained that the till had been forced open, and about 20s. taken therefrom. This fact strengthens the sggppositio n that the premises had been first robbed and then set lire to. Fortunately the discovers , was so opportunely made that 114 e the was easily got out and be fore much damage was done. NAVAL PREPARATIONS.—A large augmentation in the number of artisans and labourers in all our dockyards will take place immediately. No less than 426 additional hands' are ordered to be entered in the dockyard, viz.:-Ibo ship wrights, 36 joiners, 22 caulkers, 48 smiths, 100 labourers, 42 sawyers, and 38 ropemakers' labourers. The ropemakers are also to be augmented, and several stout boys are to be admitted to this department. With the increased force four large* war-steamers are to be built upon the designs respectively of Fincham, the master shipwright, and Mr. White of Cowes.

MR. WAKLEY, M.P.—A paragraph respecting the alleged state of Mr. Wakley's health, which appeared in a weekly medical journal, and which has been copied into several of the newspapers, has caused considerable uneasiness among the Hon. Gentleman's friends. We have great plea sure in stating that the representations contained in the para graph in question are Wholly destitute of foundation. Mr. Wakley, about three weeks 'ago, left London for the Isle of Skye, having previously purchased the right of shooting in that island. Not having .quitted town for ten years pre viously, rof the purpose' of recreation, it was thought that a temporary residence in an island 700 miles north of London would greatly conduce to the improvement_of his health, after the fatigues of professional .and Parliamentary life. We are gratified to be able to state that these anticipatfd'is have been realised.- Observer, BoILER Exl'lmm:o/c—The boiler of a steam-engiap used at the Burn-bank Brewery, at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, ill grinding malt and drawing water, exploded on Thursday last with great violence. It appears the engineman, named Christopher Hall, was in the act of turning on the steam, to ret the engine in motion, at the very moment the e2plosion took place, which blew off the roof of the building, and did Considerable damage to the walls. Hall was thrown some distance froth Where he stood, and was so much injured about the head and other parts of his body that there is but little chance of his recovery. The noise brought several persona to the spot, who were exceedingly active in their endeavours to rescue the engineman from the fallen mass of build. ings by which he was surrounded; and it was soon ascertained that no other party was in the engine-house at the time, 50 that Hall is the only sufferer. He was immediately conveyed to the Infirmary, where he lies in a hopeless state. The accident arose from the steam having been worked at too high a pressure. JARROW COLLIERY EXPLOSION.—The Commis sioners appointed by Government to inquire into the causes of the recent explosion of fire damp at Jarrow Colliery are pursuing their investigations, and as reporters are not allowed to be present at their meetings, neither the evidence of the various witnesses examined nor the general course of the inquiry can be known until their report is presented. It is understood, however, that the Commissioners are desirous of collecting all the information they can from parties cognizant of facts relating to the state of the mine previous to the explosion, and with that view they have had private interviews with several of the workmen employed upon the colliery. They have also availed themselves of the assistance of parties who have been engaged in mining operations in various parts of the district, as to the general mode of working, and the system of ventilation employed, and it is understood that the in quiry will be the moat elaborate and scientific that has ever been instituted. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday even ing last, about half-past five o'clock, a mast named Joseph Kidd, of Renwick, Cumberland, aged 39 years, and a valuable horse, came to untimely ends under the following distressing circumstances : It appears that there is a very large cutting about a quarter of a mile distant from Penrith Castle, and the earth is conveyed there from in waggons at a rapid rate on an incline a certain distance through the fields, and across the main road leading from Penrith to Keswick, to near the ruins of the Castle, where the line becomes level; the waggons are drawn from this place by horses to a large filling up at Penrith Townhead, and the empty waggons are dragged back again to the cut by horses. Deceased was in the act of taking five empty waggons up again to the cut, and when he came to the " or place where the change of line takes place, on unyoking the horse from the waggons, it unfortunately turned the wrong way, and got up on th e li ne, w h ere five loaded w a ggo ns order n t were coming down the inclin e a t a mos t f ur ious speed, and extricate the horse from its perilous situation her i n nupon that line after it; off' and himself out of the way the loadedbuwtabggefoonrsechaemceousmidasghettit,ooonf him thighs was smashed 'and the horse, and all of them went over them both. One the i d n f e u , ll a i p n p j e u b r e e d d . to D b r e . Templeton, the surgeon on to atoms, and his spine and that he part ofee near the spot at the time, who ordered Kidd to be conveyed home. Other medical gentlemen were also soon in attendance, tut they would not amputate by reason of deceased having lost so much blood, and the injuries to the spine and head. Although suffering the most excruciating pain, the poor man was sensible till about half-past nine o'clock of the same evening, when death put an end to his torments. The horse was not killed, but it was so dread fully crushed and mangled that it was shot on the place. On the same day, on the same line, near Yew's Cragg viaduct, Westmore. a lad who was driving a horse, drawing a number of waggon`, most miraculously escaped being killed. When u yoking the horse from th e waggons on coming to the incline,lt:e tell into the middle of the line, where he lay quietly stretched out till all the waggons passed over him, without receiving the least but laugh, i in jury. On g e tti ng up the lad did nothing augh, and mme_ diately set to the same work again quite undismayed. Tuesday las t " 1 an awfully fatal day amongst the workmen on the Lan caster and Carli,le Hallway, in the vicinity of Penrith, for we have further to relate the heartrending particulars attending the death of a Young man named Thomas Graham, aged 18 years, son of Mr. T. Graham, of Skeugh_head, near Calthwaite. Deceased had just " tipped" a waggon on a filling up near Barrow-mill, not far from Hecketh-in-the-Forest, and was going to elect another waggon, when a bolt and semi other gear gave way, and he was thrown under it. His body was cut through about the middle of the abdomen; his legs were crushed to pieces, and on the waggon passing over him, he held up his hands, which dropped down again, and the vital spark bad lied. He had 66. is silver in his poc,liet, a half,croan of which 1 , 43 flattened as thin at te finest elatt of tin. FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE RAILWAY TUNNEL. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, SEPT. 15.---A workman in the em ployment of the Grand Junction Railway Company, met his death in the tunnel on Saturday. His name was James Nixon, and he was fifty-five years old. The most absurd rumours prevailed as to the cause of his death. At the in quest, which was held to-day, several witnesses were ex amined, and 'among the m John Woodward, a plate:layer, who said that about a quarter past ten o'clock on Saturday morning he sent the deceased, who was also a plate-layer, down the tunnel to sand the rails, as they were very wet. Four trains went down between the time he was sent and a quarter to twelve o'clock, at which time witness saw him dead. He wils perfectly sober when he was sent into the tunnel. William Holland, the superintendent of the engine station at Edge-hill, said .that about a quartei="to eleven o'clock he went down the tunnel in a Allot-waggerit.and when about a quarter of a mile down he felt a Slight obstruc tion on the rails, and heard a noise like the breaking of a piece of :wood. He put the - break on and stopped the waggon as soon as he could, got out, and looked along the line, and from the brightness of the rails he saw they were clear. He went down to Lime-street, and sent a man tnexamine-the rails. William Jubilee Norton, a porter at the station iu, Lime-street, said he was sent up the tunnel by the last wit ness to see for something that was supposed to be npoir the rails. He got a light for that purpose, and about a granter of a mile from Edge-hill he found the deceased lying across the down rails, with one foot on one rail and his right hand upon the other rail. He was quite dead ' and cold. His right hand was ebrn pletely crushed, and his left jaw was broken. There was also a wound upon the forehead, and another upon the back part of the head. He brought the deceased to Lime-street. Holland further stated that he afterwards went up to the place , wliere the deceased was found, and there saw a wooden lamp,.whfch was used at the station, broken, and this, in his opinion, was the obstruction deceased 'had met with in going down the tunnel. The lamp was the one that the deceased used. This was all 'the evidence, and the inquest was adjourned to aflord time for a post mortem examination, it being surmised that the wounds upon the deceased were not sufficient to cause death, and that' he must have fallen into a fit, in which state he died. - ACCIDENT AT WOTTON.—The Post published a paragraph this morning, stating that the Duke of Bucking ham, while out - on a shooting excursion yesterday, in the neighbourhood of Wotton, had the misfortune to have one of his hands severely injured from the bursting of the gun while loading. The statement was incorrect, as appears from the following account in a second edition of the lipst:— " Tuesday, ten A.M.—We hasten to correct the statement above given, so far as the Noble Duke himself is concerned. The accident alluded to did not occur to his Grace, but to Mr. James Hogg, son of Mr. Hogg, M.P. for - Beverley, who was of the Duke's shooting party at Wotton, yesterday. We should here mention that our information of the accident was derived f rom a gen tl eman w h o came' to town last night by the express train, which passed the Tring sta tion at half-past nine o'clock P.M. It was there currently re ported and believed that the Noble Duke was the sufferer, and it was stated that a gentleman was in attendance at the station to meet two physicians from London, who, were ex pected by the mail train. While we rejoice to learn that the Noble Duke has sustained no injury, it is with great regret that we confirm the accident to Mr. Hogg, who, as our readers are aware, is a promising young officer in the Guards. Mr. Hogg is going on very well, and it is hoped that the accident will not render the amputation of more than one finger ne cessary. The Duke of Buckingham arrived in town this morning." Her Majesty, upon the recommendation of his Grace the Commander-in-Chief, has been pleased to appoint Major-General Sir James Reynett, K.C.H., to the perma nent establishment of general officers receiving U. ss. pay per diem. rn , THE MA ILS .

(Continued from Tke Sun of Sept, 15.) , The Doncaster meeting commences to-morrow with a programme of sport that must gladden the heart of every Yorkshireman and every Witte. In accordance with my promise, I proceed to state• upon paper my reasons for naming the probable winners of the va :isms roast. For the Champagne I selected Mr. Ramsay's Malcolm, from the superiority of his running at York and the strength of th stable. My other fancy, Princess Alice, I - chose merely from her improved form at Goodwood. In the 300 Sovs. Sweepstakes I thought Lord George Bentinek's filly would be found the best, from seeing that she was on her road, and from an idea that his Lordship would not take the trouble to send her unless he deemed her good enough to win. In the match between Semiseria and Nottingham I stood on the former because her running at Goodwood showed a marked im provement in her form. In the exciting St. Leger selected Mentor s fromhis . public run. "ricifie icTOCirom title ',l:afire - 616;g in such strong force this season; from the opportunities - enjoyed by his piny' of%aileertaining his merits; and the , Wergist tit rnene'r put Upon hint by those whose judgment' in racing cannet be slisptitesj.fer fustant.• Weather iiould nod haVe; impriisiozrll4.o4,wilinot have got : osier his tryin race few the - Goodwood Cup,- in which he ought, had he been good enough; to have Wort tAeSt.Ategor:iheahould have beaten a mafe-sorde*hat . stale frOm rp4iiiii.eiver so tryjpg a course the previous Of.'ii6ii9.7ciegli4ld living from thinking her victottlitlitilit*itlf, 1114' attached to it, seeing Miit Xlis'a goiid.gitiliti s ": VO A nearly alltaken out of her by her previous doings. Annandale's running at York already dis plays Old England's pretensions ; that be will obtain le forward po sition in the race, I have not the least doubt. His being started at Salisbury was by no means encouraging to his backers for this race, inasmuch as it looked as if his owner was determihed to get as much out of him as he could while sound. The Baron and Ould Ireland will run respectably, and perhaps remunerate those parties who have drawn them in /weeps, by, putting into their pockets the third prise. The Welsh bores Pantasa will struggle on well, but I think his forte more gameness titian speed. In the Cleveland Handicap I named MrXMeiklam's Godfrey, from the manner in which he fulfilled my predi s cOoli respecting him at York. In the Municipal Stakes, the 'way in which I saw Artwright finish his race at Goodwood caused me to name him *tithe probable winner. In the Foal Stakes my reasons for preferring Midlothian are un necessary to mention. For the Great Yorkshire Handicap I preferred Glossy, from a confident belief in her superiority to the rest of the field. My Mary ought to yin respectably. Midlothian's doings in public made me pick him for the winner of the karborough. The same reasons i i me to fix upon Mentor:or Ould Ireland for the Gascoyne, and Princess Alice or Freelance for the Two-yrs old Stakes. The result of the St. Leger will iletermine in a great measure, the Park.hill Stakes, and one of the Misses I think will no doubt win it. In the two matches that fellow, I preferred the owners of Lord Harry and Fitzallen to those of their antagonists. Sept. 15. , TELEGRAPH. 13A5INGSTOKE.—On Wednesday James Shackle ford, a youth of 14 years of age, was brought beti,re Messrs. Sym • monds and Cottle, magistrates for Basingstoke, at the Borough court, on a summons granted upon the information of M r . pb Y. the superintendent of „police on the South-Western Ri.'llw. to a answer to the charge of throwing a stone at a rai lw ay train whil e in motion on that Company's line. John Bailey, a servant in the Company's ernpioyment, deposed that on the morning of the ilth the dewtt slow train wa s proceeding under the Reading-road- , bridge, a stone was dung with considerable force from the top of the bridge, which struck the carriage between two passengers, an bounded off' to a considerable distance Witness, at the moment looked to the bridge, and saw the defendant on the parapet and looking over. The train stopped immediately, and witness went in pursuit of the defendant, and secured him after a sm,:rt chace. The defendant did not deny throwing the stone, but said it Mis not larger than a walnut, and expressed much sorrow for what he' had done. Bailey, the witness, remarked that the stone thrown v`a , ' , much larger than described by the accused. The magistrate com : 4 - mented in , severe terms upon the extreme danger and enorm f ity wh f the offence, and convicted the defendant in the penalty of together with 10s. eosts, or in default • of payment to l and Lats.

RED DEER. — It is well known that the Ted deer im some districts arrive at a larger size than in others:\ As an in. stance, we have just heard of two magnificent stags, lately killed in Ardgour, of the respective w e i g h t of 4081bs. and '34;i3lbs., as killed. When cleaned, including skin, head, and hoirts, they weighed 3351b5. and 2931b5. The fat on the haunches of those animals measured in depth above three inches. The head of the smallest, though not so fine a head as the former, has twelve gaud points—the other ten.—luverness Courier. THE \V lIIRLW IND AT ROUEN.—We have already stated that the owners of the property destroyed near Rouen, by the whirlwind of the 19th ult., have brought an action for in demnity against the insurance companies, on the ground of the calamity having been occasioned by electricity, in which case it contended that the companies are liable, the policies bearing the following words :—" The company insures against fire, and against the fire of heaven, and the damage which may result." Strong evidence of the presence of electricity, which is the fire of heaven , alluded to in the policies, has already been offered, but the com panies contend that the losses of the insurers were the result of a storm of wind, and not of lightning. This is the point to be de cided by the Tribunal; but, in the meantime, it may not be unin teresting to allude to a suit by the owners of the property destroyed in a similar way at Cette, on the 23d of October last. The question having been brought before the Tribunal of Commerce of Mont pelier on the 10th of December, the Tribunal ordered that a com mission of scientific men should be formed, to report as to wilt thee electricity was present in such a way as to give the assured the benefit of the clause in their policies respecting " the fire of heaven." The report has been drawn up, and seat to the Tribunal, but it has not yet been read.—Rouen paper. JENNY LIND.—A German paper states that this celebrated vocalist, who has created such a furore in various parts of Germany, made her debut at Cologne on the 20th ult. in the opera of Norma. Notwithstanding the prices of admission were trebled, the theatre was filled to overflowing. The fair cancatrice was called before the curtain, and applauded to the echo, at the termination of each act of the opera. The greater portion of the enthusiastic audience consisted of Engli.b, many of whore have signified their irtiAtion of following Jenny Lind from place to plea. Eke is l u appear oat at Yankton f I
