We attended on Saturday a private view of th e splendid collection of armour which will be ope ne d to the' public on Mon d ay, a t sr ay, House, Leicester square. The collection comprises many hundred pieces of engraved, inlaid, and battle armour, in the finest state of preservation; indeed, as a collection of battle armour of the 15th and 16th centuries, it may be pronounced to be the largest and most complete in the world. This splendid historical collection is well known to connoisseurs as the Maximilian collection, having formerly belonged to the Emperors Maximilian I. and 11. It was in Bel gium about forty years since, and a very large sum was asked for its purchase; it was subsequently imported into this country, and remained in the Custom-house warehouse for nearly thirty years, from whence it was purchased by the present proprietor. In addition to the armour, there is to be found in this hall every variety of offensive weapon in use in the fifteenth century; some of the rapiers are exceedingly beautiful. This exhibi tion is, as a whole, most interesting. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal.) A slight change for the better is perceptible in our market, both in the inquiry for shares and business done —the latter being chiefly, as usual, i❑ dividend mines; but, on the whole, the value of these shares is on the de cline, for which the legitimate reason may be found in their having ruled at too high prices a few months ago; still, favourite dividend shares are no: easily acquired, except at advanced rates—the tenacity with which they are held being in accordance with their intrinsic value. In other undertakings, a diminution of demand is too apparent not to becomo a noticeable feature in the week's operations; whilst the more _ephemeral projects of the day have become, as they ought to be, utterly ne glected ones. Li the Metal Market, Copper moves off steadily.— Lead is quiet, and rather easier.—But little has been done in Tin, and piices are quite nom►nal.—A moderate business doing in Yellow Metal Sheathing. The imports during the week have included—from namburgh, 1,471 plates of spelter, 65 casks of plum bago, 13 casks of copperas; Stettin, 30,270 plates of spelter, 126 casks of zinc ash, 11,215 plates of zinc; Carthegena, 1,700 pigs of lead; Licata, 300 tons of brimstone; Singapore, 2,553 slabs of tin; and Gothen burg, 4,717 bars of iron. Among the arrivals at Swansea are 1,290 tons of cop per from Cuba. Driggith Mine sold two parcels of lead ore-12 tons at 111. 55., and 6 tons at 91. 10s. per ton. The ticketings for 100 tons of Newtonards (Conlig) lead ore fluctuated from that of Pontifex and Wood, 8/. 7s. 6d., to Joseph Walker and Co., 104 15s. 6d. per ton. At Great Wheal Baddern, on Saturday last, two par cels of lead ore were sold-21 tons at 141. Os. 6d. per ton, and 19 tons at 121. 4s. 6d. The stopea are doing well. In the 51ifm. level, east of Kenworthy's, the lode is 10 in. wide, with a very kindly appearance for making lead. Wheat Vincent sold four parcels of black tin-two at the rate of 501., one at 481., and the other at 201. per ton. Samples of a parcel of copper ore from the Daren Mine, computed 21 tons, have been forwarded to Messrs. Newton, Keates, and Co.; Messrs. Sims, Willyams, and Co.; Rawlins and Watson; and Low's Patent Copper Company; and the tenders are to be forwarded by the 22d inst.

At the Australian Mining Company's meeting, on ELECTION COMMITTEE. HARWICH. The Committee sat again on Saturday; Mr. Per Seyn2er in the chair. On the assembling of the Members the room was cleared, and after an hour's deliberation the parties were re-admitted, and The CHAIRMAN announced thst the Committee had Como to the decision that tho vote of William Beim wee a bad vote. _ _ _ This placed Mr. Crawford, the unsuccessful candidate, in a majority of one. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, on behalf of Mr. Prinsep, the sitting Member, called upon the counsel for the petitioners either to proceed with the remaining part of their case, respecting the disqualification of Mr. Prinsep on the ground of bribery, or to abandon it, and allow him to enter upon a scrutiny of the votes polled by Mr. Crawford. Ho was quite ready to go on with his case, but he objected to the petitioners calling upon him to do so while they reserved some allegations for the after consideration of the Committee. Mr. JANES colitended that it was duty of his Learned Friend to proceed now with his case. If he did not, he should call upom the Committee to declare Mr. Craw ford elected, as ho was in a majority of ono vote over Mr. Prinsep. The room was again cleared, and the Committee came to the resolution that they could not accede to the appli cation of Mr. Sergeant Kinglake. Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE then proposed entering upon the scrutiny, and in the first instance objected to the vote of Robert John Bagshaw, on the ground of want of resi dence, and not sufficient occupation. Mr. JA3IES formally objected. As the Committee had expressly decided that Mr. Prinsep had not a proper qualification under the Ist and 2d Victoria, chap. 48. to enable him to sit in Parliament, he was stopped from being heard against the votes polled by Mr. Crawford, who was now in a majority. Mr. Sergeant KINGLARE was heard on the other sid e. _ Parties wer e th en ordered to w i t hd raw , and on the doors being re-opened, The CHAIRMAN said the Committee had resolved to allow Mr. Kinglake to proceed with the scrutiny: The Committ ee were occu pied during the remain der of the day with the consideration of Mr. Bagshaw's vote.

THE SUN, LONDON ,: ' Feb. handed in YARDS.--The Admiralty have issued orders to the dock yards to the effect that the officers visiting the Great Exhibition are expected to report to th e i r respect i ve superintendents any new invention iu mac hi nery, or im provements in articlesin general use , too l s, &c., that may attract their attention, or anything that may strike them as useful or advantageous to the public service. THE QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY.—The Admiralty have issued orders to all their establishments that the anni versary of her Majesty' s bi rt hd ay this year is to be kept on the 31st inst., when the usual general holiday will be granted. - - LIBRARIES FOR THE MANY. LYDD.—Mighty as are the benefits mankind have de rived from the art of printing during the space of nearly four centuries during which it has been in operation, they probably amount to but a small portion of the whole sum of good, which in its ultimate extension it is des tined to confer on our race. Literature and books, even before the era of this great invention, were the chief z sources from which the moral light of the world was 27% drawn. We can hardly conceive a form of civilization without them. Even while books could only be multi -42% plied by the slow process of transcription by the hand, 19% although direst communication with them was necessa _ rily eonfined to a few, still their indirect influence was extensive. We shall not dilate upon the immense mul -370/ tiplication of the power of books which must have in _ stantly followed the discovery of the art of multiplying their numbers by the printing press. It was the mightiest revolution which the history of the world had known. The wave which it set in motion has been rolling on till - now, and that wave has s till muc h f art h er to ro ll . Mach as he art of printing h as a l rea d y accomp li s h e d , i ts rice greatest triumphs, we believe, are yet to come. Even up to the present hour its advantages have been con fined. The great mass of the population still remains 26t0 be brought int o ac t ua l con t act w i t h t h e en j oyments 36% and blessings of which it is the dispenser. We have 17% often seen cause to regret the want of Public Libraries and Reading Room s i n pl aces w h ere t h e popu l at i on was 7 20 amply sufficient to maintain a well-sel e ct e d lib rar y ; an d go we could only attribute it to the fact, that the plan of a 15 popular institution had not been exhibited. Our readers s% are aware that th e p r i nc i p l e o f " lib rar i es for the many " 5 113 0 has been successfully es t a bli s h e d at A s hf or d , and 8% other towns in this part of the county—all equally 36 zealous in promoting the spread of sound know -256 ledge of the Creator' s wor k s among a ll classes i sl 4 of the community; and we have now the pleasure 50 of recording what may be done in a field more limited, 46 and with smaller means. Th e d es i re to esta bli s h a public 434 library, &c., at Lydd, on w hi c h " a d awn o f li ght has is begun to appear," was entertained some time b ac k ; an d 19 it was at length determined by the principal tradesmen, 15 % farmers, &c., to a ssoc i ate together in the pleasant work 234 of mental improvement, and on such terms that all 2% classes might avail themselves of the benefit. With l A% this view, application was made to the Rev. John 198.0 d Dufton, Rector of Warehorne, who, it is well known, 30 takes a lively interest i n suc h un d erta ki ngs, and in 6 % improved popular educati on , an d w h o , i t was con -209221 ceived, by his ability an d exper i ence, would be of great 48 service in promoting the object which the people of 4 Lydd had so much at heart, and in furnishing a body of suggestions for th e f ormat i on an d con d uct i ng the 2‘ in stitution in the mode which experience had proved to be most likely to secure the full advantages of which such institutions may be made productive. Accordingly, p r i ce , on the 10th of April, a public tea meeting was held in the Assembly Rooms, at which 107 persons were pre sent. Shortly afterwards the Rev. Mr. Dufton (whose 15834 gratuitous services were promptly and obligingly ren -70 dared) delivered an excellent lecture "On the British V? Colonies and Emigration," and kindly consented, at its 5734 close, at the unanimous request of a crowded audience, 97 to visit them again, and address them on subjects adapted 110 to the occasion. Attracted by this announcement, on Thursday evening last a numerous audience attended at the Assembly Rooms, and the Rev. Lecturer delivered "An Introductory Lecture" on the subject of public Prim' libraries—the necessity of their being of acknowledged and admited excellence—on the advantages and plea sures of knowledge and science (the Learned Lecturer 84 giving a brief outline of the most important and useful 145 of the sciences)—the privileges of literature, lectures, 11334 and true taste, &c., &c.—" the cheap amusements of a mind at ease:"- 76% "What though no marble breathes, no canvas glows, From every point a ra y o f gen i us flows! is Be mine to bless the more mechanic skill, That stamps, renews, and multiplies at will." The Reverend Lecturer was very cordially received, p r i ce . and his address, occupying nearly two hours in the de livery, was listened to with interested attention. His observations throughout were those of a mind which 1 5 has evidently devoted much thought to the matter on which he treated, and has, besides, kept fully up with 16 the progress of th e di ff erent bran ches of science. The 3 25 moral and Christi an sp i r i t wh i ch pervades Mr. D u f ton ' s lectures is also as elevated as the views which they pro pound are enlightened and comprehensive. A cordial vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Dufton; and able speeches were afterwards made in behalf of the institu tion by Messrs. Prescott (who liberally granted the use Price. of the rooms), Mr. Cozens (scripture reader), Mr. Finn, Mr. Buss, Mr. Geo. Finn, &c., &c. We offer to the in -' habitants of Lydd our sincerest wishes for the progress 50 of the institution, and its increase in every thi ng w hi ch can add to the gratification of its members, and the 140 general improvement of the neighbourhood in which it 7 ° has arisen.—Kentish Gazette. 1831 42 Price. 9, lB5l. - Timothy Sullivan, aged about 39; both legs fractured, and seve re contusions en the body an d head.

James Jenkins; slightly injure,l. Three of the last named it was expected would be able to leave the hospital during the week. The names only of two of the sufferers stiU under the ruins can at present be gleaned. One was named James Hartigan, the other T. Connor. Three persons unquestionably are missing, but it is hoped that the third may have left the building in safety, and gone home. Thousands of persons continued to flock towards the scene of the melancholy catastrophe, and to keep the immense crowd out of da❑ger the thoroughfare has been barricaded at each end, and a strong body of police placed on duty, under the command of Superintendent Hodgson and Inspector Marchant. The premises, it is stated, were erected under the di rection of Messrs. Bell and Corbett, who officiated in the twofold capacities of builders and architects, while the brickwork was intrusted to the superintendence of Mr Dennett. Hav:ng opened the door of her bedroom, she fatal volume of h o t smo k e ascending - he staircase, wtial nearly prostrated her; she therefore made fir till back-window, and. without waiting a minute longer , jumped out and f e ll upon the glass skylight over the kitchen adjoining the White Hart Tavern in Botolph: lane. Upon reaching the roof in that place she found_ herself so injured as to b e unable to extricate hersel f . She therefore remained in that critical position, with the flames rushing from the windows towards her person, when Joel King and Thomas Howard having broken * pane of glass in a room of the White Hart, pulled the poor creature throu g h th e h o l e, and found bloo d gus h. ing from various p ar t s o f h er b ody. She was fort h w ith placed in a c a b an d conveyed to Guy ' s Hospital, w here, we are sorry to say, she is likely to remain for some considerable tim e b e f ore s h e can recover from the e ff ec t* of the dreadful injuries she has sustained. The persons living on either side of the premise*_ assert that they h ear d l ou d and fearful screams i n . building, that a man appeared at the third floor windo and begged of some one to go and procure a ladder, ant, immediately afterwards disappeared. A man nam ed Hart, living at M rs. Blundell's, next door, then went to the roof, an d h av i ng opened the trap-door calledie loudly to the p ersons w i t hi n to make for that part of h building, but not rece i v i ng an answer he imagined that probably th e y h a d made their escape from one of the lower windows. S uc h , h owever, unfortunately was not the case. The police who were on duty near lost no tia l° , i h n e sending for the fire-escapes and engines, and in.„.'„„ course of a few minutes numerous engines of the Lon" don Brigade, her Majesty's Custom-house, West of England Company, and the parish were on the s po t, under the direction of Mr. Braid wood, the Emporia' tendent, with Mr. Fogo, the foreman of the Lond on establishment, and M r . Connorton, the chief offiner ° the West of England firemen. By that period the entire range of premises belonging to Mr. Harvey wer e ell .; veloped in one imm ense s h eet of flame, and the fire b tu extended to the roofs of the houses on either side, ii be : longing to Mr. D. Beard, a baker, and Mrs. -Blundell, fish-boiler. The White Hart Tavern, In Botolpli'le i t,: and the premises of Mr. Stuart, the fish-factor '— Thames-street, were also burning with such rapidity Is e to threaten the entire clump of houses in the immediate vicinity with destruction. Fortunately a plentiful supply of water was obtain ed from the Now River mains, and the engines we re called into op e r a ti on; b ut it at once became apparent that the firemen would b e una b le to save any pat tion of Mr. Har ve y' s property; they therefore had th hose of three or four engines conveyed round th e premises, so th a t th e B r i gade were enabled to cut off t": spreading of the fl ames towards Tharnes.street Botolph-lane almost simultaneously, and when that we' accomplished the whole force was brought to bear eP °l2 the main body of fire; but, in spite of the most strent" ous exertions of all present, the flames continued to rise and, when the stock of liquors became ignited, they luminated, for the space of a few minutes, she Whoa' neighbourhood. During the period the firemen were s ° actively employed the utmost excitement prevailed se le the fate of the unfortunate persons who were missing' and supposed to be within the ruins. As soon, therefore, as the fire could be got down sufficiently to enable ant one to enter, Mr. Braidwood gave directions for seYel lengths of scali ng l a dd ers to be attached, and some ° the firemen to search the upper rooms. Upon their e e doing they beheld a most frightful scene. The lifeleee bodies of tour human beings were discovered, three in the attics and one on the second floor. They were a" shockingly burnt and disfigured. The following are the names of the unfortunate O f. ferers:— Mr. Richard Harvey, aged 36, proprietor of the rinS e and Crown Tavern, Love-lane, dead. Mrs. Elizabeth Gray, aged 52, mother-in-law of th e last-named, dead. Abraham Clark, a lodger in the house, dead. George Sn, ezum, the potnaan, dead. Elizabeth Chambers, aged 17, the servant seriously injured and ta k en to Guy's Hospital. , During yesterday morning a minute examination wq made by th e b r i ga d e, for the purpose of finding out, " possible, how the calamity occurred, but nothing sates" factory could be arrived at; there is, however, every rev son for believing that it began in the back room o n the ground floor, and worked its way up the staircase he tore its existence became known to the inmates. The four bodies have been removed to the deadhouge of the parish to await the coroner's inquest. The following is the official report of the damage done:— "No. 17, Love-lane, Lower Thames street—Mr. E Harvey, licensed victualler, and proprietor of the Ros e and Crown Tavern.

THE GOLD DUST ROBBERY. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. Since the last examination of the prisoner (William Pamplin) at Winchester, on Friday last, the detective officers of the city of London, Funnell, Trew, Hug. getts, and Brett, under the direction of Mr. Superin tendent Hodgson, have been unremitting in their efforts to trace the stolen property, and several new facts have come to light which will tend to connect the former evi dence, and more firmly,fix upon the prisoner the charge of a guilty knowledge and participation in this deeply laid and cleverly executed robbery. As has been already stated, a person answering the description of the prisoner arrived at Mr. Eldred's, the Railway Coffee-house, Shoreditch, in a cab from the South-W es t ern R a i lway, on the morning of Friday, the Bth inst., at ab out fi ve o ' clock; and it has since been as certained that when the person alighted from the cab he would not allow the driver or any one else to assist him with his luggage, cons i st i ng of a bag and a parcel, but carried them into the house himself'. He placed them upon a seat i n th e co ff ee -room, upon which Mr. Eldred, seeing that his customer was a traveller, offered to take charge of them, but he imperatively desired him not to touch them, stating that he would take care of them himself. Ili face was muffled up with a black shawl, which covered a great part of it; and although he was supplied with a chop and coffee, he only momen tarily removed the shawl. During his stay he called the coffee-shopkeeper by name, but his manner after wards indicated that his having done so was an act of inadvertence or accident. When he was about to leave with his luggage he remarked that ho wanted a cab, upon which the coffee-shopkeeper volunteered to call him one, which courtesy was declined, his visitor stating that he could get one for himself, and be went to the door and got one. When it drove up Mr. Eldred and the cabman wished to assist him to the cab, but he again declined their services, and himself placed the two par cels in the vehicle. This cab, it has been ascertained, was driven to the terminus of the South-Eastern Rail way, at London-bridge, shortly,before seven o'clock, and on its arrival there, the porter No. 39, William Wardle, opened the door, and was about taking out a parcel and a blue bag, when the person inside put out his hand and pushed him off, saying, " I will take them out myself." The porter describes the bag as a similar one to that used by lawyers, and tied with a black cord, and it ap peared to be very heavy. He then entered the hooking office, where the porter noticed him for some little time, and he thought it rather strange that he did not take a ticket. He was met there by a man, with whom ho en tered into conversation, and the porter left them to gether. The train then started, and upon this point a great deal of further intelligence has been received, but at the present moment its publication might have the effect of defeating the ends of justice. On Saturday morning Edward Funnell, the officer, accompanied by Mr. Eldred, the keeper of the Railway Coffee-house, left London for Winchester, and proceeded to the county gaol, where, in the presence of Mr. Bar ber, the governor, and Mr. Sheppard, the superinten dent of the Winchester city police, Mr. Eldred positively identified the prisoner Pamplin as the person who had come to his coffee-shop on the Friday morning in ques tion with the blue bag and a parcel, and who afterwards left his house in a cab in the manner described. Mr. Eldred spoke with the greatest confidence to the person of the prisoner, as he knew him by his voice; which means of identity was strongly dwelt on by the witness William Edwards in his examination at Winchester on Friday last. Funnel has also discovered a black shawl and two blue bags at the prisoner's lodgings in Earl-street, one of them, and the shawl, exactly corresponding with the description given by no l es s th an four witnesses, viz., Edwards and W a l ter S m i t h, t h e porters at Wincester, and the two witnesses above alluded to. The variation in the statement of the prisoner's wife as to the cause of his leaving home is also a strong cir cumstance of suspicion against him. It is believed that the whole matter 'is now in fair train of being brought to a satisfactory issue in a shot" period. LYNCIIING IN CALIFORNIA. Two men were hung on the Costmes, on Friday night last, for stt.aling horses. The circumstances are as follows:—The same night, about ten o'clock, a team ster came up to the rancho of Messrs. Gage and Almond, and informed them that " some won were below at tempting to cross the river with stock, and were having ah—of a time." These gentlemen at once seemed to be impressed with the idea that the men were horse theives, and they started for the spot. On arriving there they discovered two men whom they hailed, " What horses aro those you have?" They re plied that they were some horses of their own, and that they had brought them from Dry Creek. "Are they all yours ?" said Mr. Gage. They replied, " Yes, all but one." " When did you leave Dry Creek?" said Mr. Gage. They replied that they " had left there late this afternoon" (Friday), and that they were taking the horses over to the American Fork. Messrs. Gage and Almond, in company with two or three others, saw at once that the horses had beon stolen from their own rancho, and belonged to themselves. They said to the thieves " God d— you, you must have stolen these horses," and they at once arrested them. The men and horses were then taken back to the rancho of Gage and Almond, opp os it e Rh oa d es ', w h ere strict inquiry was instituted. An examination was made of the brands un all the stock, and the brands were identical with those used by that firm, and each and every animal fully recog nised, not only by Gage and Almond, but by others in attendance. The prisoners were then arraigned, and a motion made to give them a trial by jury, but the proposition was hooted down by the incensed crowd. A motion was then made that they be hung at once, which was carried by acclamation. They were called on to make a confession, being told that they had but half an hour to prepare for the solemn change that awaited them. They gave their names as James Baxter, of Maine, and Charles Sim mons, of Massachusetts; the names, however, may have been assumed. The prisoners were then told that their time had nearly elapsed. They seemed to be much excited, and begged, " For God's sake let us live a little longer." Five minutes more were given them, during which time one of the prisoners called on the other, saying, in a low tone of voice, " Let us tell them all about it," to which the other replied, " No, no, hush." When :he half hour had elapsed, they were told their time bad come. Lariats wore brought, nooses made, and the guilty wretches hung up. This took place at twelve o'cl ck last night (Friday), and the bodies were still suspended this morning when our in formant left, although persons were engaged in digging two graves. —Sacramento Transcript.

JO; 'huct Smith, who was indicted for breaking and en terinA• the warehouse of Josiah Lowe, was Acquitted. Ile was again indicted, with a man named John Lang ford, - for being concerned in a burglary at the house cf a Mr.. Edmonds, a wholesale silk weaver in Spitalhields, when nearly 6001. worth of property was stolen. Mr. Parry defended Langford. Iu ti tis case the girl Bail was the chief evidence, and through her instrumentality the prisoners bad been taken, and also a portion of the property traced. She was partly confirmed by a servant of the prosecutor's, who saw the two prisoners hanging about her master's premises, and watching the windows through which the entry had been effected. The jury found them both Guilty. It was proved that the prisoners formed part of a re gular gang of notorious housebreakers, a great number of whom had been transported They were both transported for ten years. The case occupied nearly the whole day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLB OROUGH -STREET. GAMING-HOUSE PRACTICE.—Joseph Belasco. 4, Little Catherine-street, and Isaac Belasco, of the Fountiin public-house, Little Catherine -street, were brought be fore Mr. Hardwick, the first prisoner charged with hav ing violently assaulted Nicolans Papafi, an Hungarian refugee, and also with being concerned in defrauding him of 701. and his watch, by inducing him to play with false dice at a gaming-house, No, 4, Leicester-place, and the last prisoner, the father, charged with attempting to rescue his son from the police. The prosecutor, through the assistance of an inter preter, described himself as an H ungar i an refugee, liv ing at No. 42, King-street, Soho. For some time he had frequented a coffee-house and gaming-house, No. 4, Leicester-place, for the purpose of play. Altogether, on various occasions he had lost about 70/. in money, and his gold watch and chain. On Thursday night he went to the house and played at faro with dice, and lost about 71. Having his suspicions that he had been cheated throughout, he took up the dice, and on examining them discovered they were false dice, and was deficient of the highest number, a fraud that made loss inevitable to players. The defendant Joseph Belasco, who acted as treasurer, seeing him in the act of examining the dice, knocked them out of his hand. He then left the house and returned to his lodgings. On Friday ho went to another house, 24, Cranbourn-street, where he saw the prisoners, and in the presence of several persons he ex plained how he had been cheated. A person named Wagner came in, and threatened to horsewhip him if he did not retract his words. He refused, and Wagner ' then struck him a severe blow on the face, and left the house. He left the place and procured the assistance of a constable to accompany him to the gaining -house where Wagner lived. Not finding Wagner there, he returned into the street, and seeing Joseph Belasco, he pointed him out to the constable, who took him into custody. The prisoner, however, before this was effected, struck him two severe blows between the eyes. Police -constable Blunt, C 164, said the prosecutor, when he saw Joseph Belasco, called out to him loud enough for the prisoner to hear, " Here comes one of the thieves who robbed me." As soon as witness had the prisoner in custody, the elder prisoner came up and laid hold of witness's collar in order to rescue his son. Witness gave the father into custody. Mr. Davies, for the prisoners, denied that any fraud had been practised at the house, where the prisoner Joseph was only a servant at the wages of 11. per week, but he admitted that Joseph Belasco had struck the complainant when he heard himself called a thief. Mr. HARDWICK said, in consequence of the provoca tion given he should not inflict the full penalty. The penalty of 34 was inflicted on Joseph, and 40s on Isaac Belasco. As soon as the excitement consequent on the accident had in some degree subsided, the foreman of the works had the men mustered and their names called over, when, in addition to those taken to the hospital, two men, of the names of Harrigan and Martin Crowan, were found missing. Some of the labourers escaped death under circum stances of a most marvellous character. In one instance a labourer who was in the vaults, hearing something tumbling above him, stepped aside into a nook, and the next moment the crown of the vault was burst in by the falling floors, completely wedging him in, but without doing him the slightest injury, and after some time he succeeded in extricating himself. Another surprising preservation of life came to the writer's knowledge: six Irishmen were on the uppermost floor, and seeing or feeling the building sinking from under them, they ran along the top, and reaching one of the ends, they, one by ono, let themselves down to the street by means of the projecting iron stays. Those who witnessed their es cape described it to have been attended with the most imminent danger; how they managed to keep hold of the thin pieces of iron from such a height is considered truly marvellous. The only persons who probably witnessed the falling of the building, save those who were withi❑ it—ac the portion which failed was shut out from public view—were Mrs. Beckett, the wife of Mr. Beckett, boot and shoe maker, of 18, Gracechurch-street, and Mrs. Back, of Langbourne Coffee-house, in Church•passage. As be fore mentioned, the building formed the north side of the passage. Mrs. Beckett was in her kitchen, and, was looking out of the window, when she saw the place fall in. The pillars running up between the windows ap peared to split in the centre of the building, and, one after another, gave way, " just like the falling of houses built of cards by children." It appeared as it' the outer walls were too weak to bear the enormous weight upon the iron girders. A portion of the walls fell on to the roof of the vestry-room adjoining Allhallows Church, and broke it in. Fortunately the church has sustained no damage whatever. During the afternoon the City surveyors were engaged inquiring into 'the primary cause of the accident, but we have been unable to collect their opinion. The reporter had a❑ interview with Mr. Charles Corbett (woo is an architect), and that gentleman attributed the cause of the lamentable occurrence to the break ing of one of the iron girders. He stated that in the centre of the building was a " well•hole," intended to form the staircase, and across were run on eery floor or landing, iron girders, each weighing nearly two tons. All had been fitted and properly secured, and when in spected yesterday morning, seemed perfectly sound. From some cause or other the uppermost girder sud denly snapped in two; its excessiv e weight dragged the wall out of ics perpendicular, and the girder, getting loose, fell and broke the girder below. This instantly brought the walls down with the floors. Mr. Dennett, we understand, was close to the girder when it broke, and the opinion he forms of the cause is, that there was a flaw in the metal of the girder, and that it uid not arise from any want of foresight. Whether the girders had undergone the ordeal of testing before they were erected is a matter that will be subject to the strictest inquiry. The walls on which they rested were 18 inches thick, and were formed of what aro called old stock bricks. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. From all that can be collected the building appear ,o have b een t oo we i ghty for its site; for the magnifi s cently designed front is bulging in, and seems likely to follow the example of the back walls, while an Alton ale-shop adjoining it on the north side has every square in its plate-glass window cracked, the frame in its centre being driven several inches from the perpen dicular. The accident, dreadful as it was, appears to have been in some degree anticipated by persons employed in the building and others residing near the spot. We were informed, although we cannot vouch for the accuracy of the statement, that the district inspector visited the building about a fortnight since, and advised the cessa tion of the works until the foundation should be strengthened. His advice, however, was neglected, and the catastrophe we have recorded is the consequence. Upon this point we have the more authentic, and still more decisive, testimony of the unfortunate widow of an Irishman (Harrigan) who has fallen a victim to the acci dent. She said to us, when condoling with her under her misfortune, " I knew the place was not safe. Yes terday I brought my husband's dinner, and he sat down to eat it. I saw several cracks in the wall which has fallen, which they were stopping with compost, and I said to him, 'Harrigan, this is a bad place to eat your dinner in; it doesn't seem safe.' He replied, No, I know it ain't safe; there'll be a grand sm as h b e f ore long!' And," c on ti nued the poor woman, with tears in her eyes, "it seems to have been a sad smash for him; for I can't the rubbish." see anything o f hi m, and they say he's under The portion of the wall which fell carrying with it se veral immense iron girders, the raising of which is said to have been the immediate cause of the accident, was about 50 feet high by 30 feet in length. Up to half-past six o'clock last evening an immense number of men, under the personal direction of Mr, King, the superintendent of the works, had been actively employed in casting down the dangerous walls, and re moving the debris that covered the unfortunate men known to be beneath them. Owing, however, to the many tons weight of bricks, iron -work, and cement, that rise some dozen feet above the basement, it is the opinion of the offici a l s emp l oyed that at the least the entire night will be required to clear a sufficiency of the rubbish away so as to be able to reach the unfortunate sufferers. Mr. Woodthorpe, the surveyor, with several members of the Co ur t o f C ommon Council, have been for hours at the scene, g i v i ng i nstructions to the men to remove ere such portions h portions of the r ema i n i ng walls and floors as w con sidered lik e ly to topple over and endanger the lives of those worki ng b eneath; and the malls y now be said, unless a ve r y st iff b reeze should spring'a up, struck the to be tolerably safe.

An accident of a roost appalling character happened on Saturday morning between ten and eleven o'clock in the immediate vicinity of Gracechurch-street. It caused the sacrifice of several lives and serious injury to a large cumber of persons. The premises, which were the property of Messrs. Bell and Corbett, of Pope's Head-alley and Adelaide aambers, King William-etreet, occupied the site of the old Cross Keys Inn and coaching-house, on the west side of Gracechurch-street. They were intended exclusively for chambers and other private offices; and some idea may be formed of their extent when it is stated that the number of apartments amounted to 140. The property comprised one lofty range of buildings, four stories in height, and extended some 200 or 300 feet into Bali's court, George -yard, Lombard -street, the south frontage running the whole length of Allhallows Church-passage. The works had been going on for the last six or eight months, and it appears that the firm who owned the premises were their own builders, the workmen and labourers being under the direction of a Mr. Dennett, a kind of superintending foreman. The walls and flooring were built so as to render them fireproof; the girders being of iron, and the intermediate spaces filled with concrete, and it seems that the workmen had just com pleted the upper floors, preparatory to laying down the roof, when the catastrophe occurred. On Saturday morning some 30 men were busily en• gaged in the upper portion of the premises, completing the floors by throwing in the concrete. Others were employed in the lower floors, while many were busy at the very bottom of the building, preparing the mortar and sand for the use of those throughout the premises. About 20 minutes to 11 o'clock a sudden snap, something similar to the report of a gun, was heard, and the next moment the men, to their horror, found the building tumbling beneath them, and in another second or so the whole of the south side, which overlooked Allhallows Church, was soon sinking in one general mass. A mo mentary glance sufficed to apprise the men of the fearful catastrophe that awaited them. Some of the poor fel lows, by an extraordinary and almost superhuman effort, bounded, as the floor gradually gave way, on to the roof of the church, while others, in as astounding a manner, contrived to leap on to the adjoining houses. The great majority of the workmen, however, fell with the build ing, and the scene that ensued may possibly be imagined. The crash shook and startled the whole of that part of the city, and for some time the greatest consternation prevailed; it was only to know the character of the event, however, to anticipate the melancholy results. Crowds of excited passers-by and neighbours rushed to the scene, and then it was discovered that the whole of the centre of the extensive range of building, from the highest story, had given way, and had fallen to the ground in one shapeless mass. The labourers who had escaped instantly made their way to the ruins, and with the police and other persons proceeded to extricate the unfortunate workmen who lay buried in the rubbish. In many instances their piercing cries for help intimated to their rescuers the spot where they lay imprisoned beneath huge rafters and masses of brickwork ; and in the course of ten minutes or so some 20 or 30 were got out, and those most injured, about 17 in number, were carried to the shop of Mr. Harris, chemist and druggist on the opposite side of the way, where they were visited by Dr. Smith, of King William street, and several medical gentlemen in the neighbour hood. On the arrival of a reinforcement of police they were carefully removed in cabs and on stretchers to St. Thomas's Hospital. Among those most seriously hurt were 'Timothy Sullivan, William Ranson, Joseph Hen ley, William Whiting, H. Clark, J. Cooper, G. Barham, J. Kerby, C. Perry, D. and H. Daly. At the hospital they were at once p l ace d in beds in William ward, and every po ss ibl e attention rendered them by Mr. Macmurdo, the h ea d surgeon, and the principal officers connected with the institution. Apprehensions being entertained by those connected with the works that the remaining portion of the building, fronting Gracechurch-street, would fall, the police, under the direction of Mr. Todhunter, Mr. Mitchel, and Mr. Nl'Lean, were at once ordered to clear the mob, which was very great, out of Gracechurch- street. This was quickly accomplished, and the road was kept closed until such time as the city surveyor could make the necessary inspection of the ruins. The same precaution was adopted towards several courageous fellows who exposed themselves at times to much peril in searching for several unhappy creatures who were supposed to be buried in the ruins. They were called off, lest a second catastrophe should ensue. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN SIR,—We deem it our duty to aloay any feeling of excitement that may be produced in the public mind by exaggerated reports of the occurrence that has taken place at the building in Gracechurch-street, to r quest you will be good enough to insert this in your 1011•Eial. We were both absent at the time of the aceideut; but we are informed by the contractor and others, that an iron girder crossing one of the staircases broke from some imperceptible defect, and by its falling weight broke through the flours beneath, the iron joints of which, being built into au internal wall, prized over suc cessively each story of that as it fell, and which conse quently drew inwards with it a part of the external wall towards the court. We have to deplore the loss of the life of one man, one missing, supposed to be in the ruins and now being searched for, one dangerously wounded, and five with contusions more or less slight; this account of itself is sad enough. and we therefore desire to prevent as far as possible the anxiety that may be caused by the repre sentation that it is more terrible.—We are, Sir, your very obedient servants, BELL AND CORBETT. Gracechurch-street, Saturday afternoon. CALAMITOUS FIRE IN THE CITY. Yesterday (Sunday) morning, at a few minutes before three o'clock, the city of London was visited by another terrible occurrence, which, as far as the loss of human life was concerned, proved equally as disastrous as that which happened a few hours previously in Grace church -street. The scene of the present disaster was the well-known tavern termed the Rose and Crown, situate at No. 17, Love-lane, Lower Thames-street, C,ty. The premises in question were of great antiquity, having, it is said, withstood the great fire of London. They were, including the basement, five floors high, and extended some considerable distance backwards. The houses in Botolphdane abutted on one side of the pro perty, while those in Thames-street adjoined the sou thern side. From the fact of so many houses and ware.. houses being so closely connected with the building on fire, it appears truly miraculous that the loss of life, and the destruction of property, had not proved far more ex tensive than it really has been. From inquiries made on the spot during the progress of the fire the reporter ascertained that, as police-con stable Trimber, No. 586, was passing down .that the L ove -lade, ho perceived smoke pouring forth fro m the windo w . shutters of the front-bar. Feeling satisfied premises were on fire, he forthwith r a i se d an alarm by knocking at the street door and springing -shis rattle. Unfortunately, however, the residents were so over time elapsed powered with sleep that a considerable sensible of the great before any of them could be made danger to which they were exposed. 13 lower portion of the house be came a blazing Y that time the persons in the premises consisted of Mr. Ricliamradslis'arvTehy: the proprietor of the establishment, his mother-in-law, a woman .52 years of age,G named Ehz4beth Gray, Abraham Clark, a .10(1.. , young woman named ElizA h firge the potman, and a the servant. , airs.

SUNDAY NIGHT.—The whole of the men employed on the premises who were fortunate enough to escape with their lives when the deplorable accident occurred were engaged during Saturday until midnight, when a fresh number of hands were taken on to assist in removing the ruins, in order to get to the three unfortunate sufferers known to be within the building. Several carts were filled with bricks and iron girders, and many tons' weight of both articles were removed before the least signs of a human being could be discovered. At length the men, in turning over a heavy iron girder discovered the body of one of their fellow-workmen. Great care was used to avoid mutilating the remains. After some time the brickwork around him was so loosened that the body was pulled out with little difficulty. The poor man was immediately recognized as Martin Cronin, a labourer. Life, of course, was quite extinct. The unfortunate sufferer was 40 years of age, and had been within the ruins 24 hours. He has left a widow and three small children totally unprovioed for. Within a few feet of the spot where the body was found, that of James Harrigan was discovered, but not so deep below the surface of the ruins. About 4 o'clock the workmen came to the body of Matthew Connor, and, after working round it for nearly as hour, they suc ceeded in extricating it. The three bodies were forthwith placed in shells and removed to the parish church of Allhallows, Lombard street. Neither of the three bodies appeared so much injured as the survivors in the hospital. There is no doubt therefore entertained that the three pour fellows died from suffocation, and not from any external wounds. During the day (Sunday morning) many thousand persons flocked to the scene anxious to view the ruins, but owing to the dangerous state of the remaining walls no one unconnected with the works was allowed to enter the premises. So great was the excitement in the neighbourhood that the churchwardens of Allhallows judiciously dispensed with the performance of divine service during the day. The side windows of the sacred edifice affording a view of the ruins, it was considered the people would flock to that portion of the building and interrupt the proceedings, and hence the discon tinuance of the service. During the afternoon two more bodies were found, both shockingly mutilated. The poor fellows had fallen through the arch of the basement, and up to the time this account was written neither of the two had been identified. It is now extremely questionable whether there may not be one or two other bodies under the ruins. Respecting the cause of the disaster a great many re ports are in circulation. Several scientific gentlemen are of opinion that the mortar was not of good quality. This is to some extent borne out by the fact of scarcely two bricks adhering together. Several portions of the walls are still in an exceedingly dangerous condition, and, should the wind blow with any degree of violence, it is quite probable that they will be thrown down; great care is, therefore, obliged o be used by the parties employed lest a further loss of life should occur. The proprietors of the premises, in order to satisfy the public mind, have determined, as far as can be done without endangering the lives of the men, to have every portion of the ruins turned over to see whether or not any others have perished. Upon making inquiries last evening, at St. Thomas's Hospital, the reporter was informed that, with the ex ception of Sullivan and Whiting, the survivors were all going on favourably. The first named, it is feared, can not survive the night; the latter, it has been found, has sustained a fractured radius, the back is dre•sdfully con tused, and the scalp is seriously wounded. So far as can at present be learnt, Sullivan has sustained a com pound tracture of the clavicle, several ribs are broken, the tibia is fractured, and both legs are broken. Another of the sufferers, a man named George Barham, has his head fearfully contused, and the abdomen is crushed. The following are the correct names and residences of those in the hospital ; The poor fellow Hauley belonged to Westminster. He has left a widow and young family unprovided for. William Ransom resided to No. 25, Phoenix-street, Somers Town ; by trade a bricklayer. He is going on favourably. Timothy Sullivan resided at No. 3, Morgan's-lane, Tooley-street. No hope can be entertained of his re covery. John Cooper resides at No. 3, Nee-alley, White street, Borough. Be was a married mart, and, besides sustaining a fractured scull, has his left leg completely smashed. George Barham is a single man, and he suffers se verely from his eyes being filled with lime. He has likewise received many iuternal injuries. Recovery ex tremely doubtful. Henry Clark, another of the sufferers, resides at No. 5, Vincent -street, Stepney, and, besides being terribly crushed, has lost his eyesight. A great crowd, at half -past ten o'clock last night, was in the immediate neighbourhood of the disaster, and it required the services of a powerful body of the City po lice to keep them out of danger. .AIL WA SHARE MARKETS.

RIOT AT HOLYHEAD —The past week has been one of great excitement at Holyhead, and a serious riot has taken place at the harbour works. For some time past the Welshmen engaged at the works have harboured very hos tile feelings towards their fellow-labourers, the Irish, on ac count of the prejudices they entertain towards the country of the latter. On Saturday evening lt an Irishman stabbed a Welshman in a drunken brawl With a knife. The latter nar rowly escaped with his life, having received a dangerous wound in the neck. On the circumstance becoming gene rally known on Monday morning, a party of Welsh, en gaged on the mountain, made a furious attack on a number of the Irish, and with much cheering forced fifteen of the poor men on board the Irish Express packet, leaving their wives and children behind. O n T uesday the excitement be came still greater, business was suspended, and the shops were closed. All public-houses were ordered to be shut up and no liquor to be sold. A great number of workmen perambulated the streets all night. On Thursday, after much persuasion, the men resumed work, and it is hoped that the affray has ended.
