ADVERTISEMENTS INSERTED in ALL THE THREE PAPERS, Morning Noon, a n d Ni g ht, thereby insuring a TOWN and COUNTRY CIRCULATION, at ONE CHARGE. EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION. Yesterday (Friday) morning, at the early hour of two o'clock the neighbourhood of Itigh•street, Deptford, and its immediate vicinity, was aroused from its usual quietude, by the outbreak of a most disastrous fire upon the premises in the occupancy of Mr. Parks, butcher, situate at No. 12, Flagon- row, within 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 making 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. 'Die 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 tinued 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, cheesemonger, were blazing 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 be obtained from the mains the fire had made such ravagEs 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 3001. 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 ha►e 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 ; theilardens 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. Tl4e 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 Mime, whose tenancy expires Sept. 29 this year. The rent for the whole is only One Hundred Guineas 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. MR. GEORGE ROBINS beg 3 to notify to the Public lie is directed by those interested in this valua able Property, to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, Loudon, on THURSDAY ' the 17th October, at Twelve, in One Lot, and perern torily, a VERY PROMISING INVESTMENT, THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF GREAT EXTENT, situate in Carnarvenshire, 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 all that this announcement has in perspective, and even more under a talented direction, The Slate is of Excellent quality, of a rich grey.blue colour, and can be hai in abundance under a very thin cover. 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 accuracy of the foregoing state ment :—" I have been in Carnarvonshire, t• 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 be no lees 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 cover. 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.; TIIIS 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 hits 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 who 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 TIVE ENGINE. The improvements Mr. Kollman contemplates by this new locomotive are of great importance, and, if carred 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 gradiiints 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 n the present defective state of things, involving asit does the unnatural expedients of coning the w 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 keep the even tenor o f their way without swerving or jolting, however rapid the transit on the direct line, or on such , a curve as m i g ht call into action centrifug al force. BLUNDERING LEGISLATION.—The Poor-law Amen dment Bi 11 was one of humanity people, b bel ast ackei measures ( of the younglasttlle Eng. ses sion. All the land, bestowed their talk and their tediousness on it night a ft e r night, and yet, instead of ameliorating one alleged o b n oxious law of the old Act, it fearfully and shamefully aggravates it. The second clause enacts that any single woman being pregnant, or having had anille g g,i o t b i e m f( t ) t r t e e child, instead of going to the overseeer, is to 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, remeve the case to the sessions, and unless she can, at her own expense, confront him there, he gets off szot 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.—Liverpool J42unaal.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, SEPT. 6.—There has been an animated demand for most descriptions of Flo. reign Wools this week, and the sales effected have been considerable in amount. The high rates wools are realising in the foreign markets gives, likewise, a very firm tone to prices in this market. YORK WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 6.—The market WaS very badly attended to-day, and the show of wool only very small ; not much business was done. Prices aro steady. Mixed tops of hog and ewe realising 14s. tO 15, per stone. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, SEPT. 6.—The market) continues much in the same state, and both combing and short wools are held at stationary prices ; but sales have again been very 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 time. 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 for some Tears, at this period of the year. Prices remain steady. here has also been a full average amount of business done in the warehouses this week. The state of the harvest, and the downward tendency of the corn markets, induce the buyers to purchase with more spirit. On the whole, the aspect of trade is brighter than for many years, with the prospect of goal employment in the ma nufacturing districts during the winter. TRADE OF HoLauffint.—During the last month a 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 rain the mills have all been in full operation. Every branch of workmen 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 mcst bountiful harvest, we may fairly pre. sume that this district will be blest wi:h a flourishing trade for a length of time to come. Cannot our manu facturers now discern the connection between cheap focd and increased markets ? HECKMONDWIKE BLANKET MARKET, SEPT. s.—The attendance at this market both on Monday and to-day has been good, and the demand for goods unabated. The business transacted both by sample and to order has been greater than for some Thursdays past. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—We hate had on the whole but a dullish week for most kinds of cloth, with prices for nearly all kint:s and qualities rather in favour of the buyer. The market is very flat indeed for such goods as are generally purchased on India and China account. The home 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 never busier; 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.-011 Sunday even 4 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 Silver -stre e t, in this town. Five of the bir ds: 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 red sand stone, through which the cuttings, here very deep, will have to be excavated for a considerable distance.—New castle Adveriiser. 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 tke Western District Banking Company for Devon and Cornwall, held at the Bank-office here, on Wednesday, the 14th inst., a full statement of the affairs of the Company having beeu read and laid on the table, whereby it appeared that tke 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. The Liabilities of the Bank, including the capital borrowed from Share holders, amount to Estimated value of property and amount of good debts Deficiency. To meet the above deficiency, the Directors recom mended to the General Annual Meeting of Proprietors, held on Friday, that a call of 31. 10s. per share be made, payable at the Bank-office, Devonport, by equal instal ment, on the Ist of September, Ist of October, and Ist of November next.—By order of the Board of Directors, " H. MALcoum, Manager. " N.B.—Those Shareholders who have already paid the full proportion of the borrowed capital, or any part thereof, on signing the annexed order and returning it to this office, will be credited with the same on account of the above call."—Plymouth Journal. DONC AST ER.—THE HARVEST.—There never has 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 scare, the crop is a full average—if not more. Besides, the grain is of superior quality. Abundance and cheapness will diffuse around their manifold 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 ProNidence.—Don , caster Gazette. LAND CONIMISSION. —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, Bart., 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 namedwere in attendance. His Lordship and the other members of the Commission re mained at Walpole's Hotel, and thence proceeded yes terday to Killarney.—Cork Southern Reporter. JURISDICTION OF MAGISTRATES. —HORSE-MRS.-- In reply to a statement by a Magist ra t e o f t hi s county, forwarded for the opinion of the law officers of the Crown, Mr. Brewster has giveu 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 DEAFNESS.—LateIy 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 had 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 board a frigate when in chase of a French frigate ; and that n e l c y l u t d o e d pub lishhtss the other had become within theeedielciamtsutmreretwdiceaoltve months nearly as bad, yet, although pronounced by an eminent aurist in London incurable, within a month the . hearing in both (ars was perfectly restored.
