In the House of Lords last night, The Duke of RICHMOND presented m a i p a stition from the Town Council of Chichester, complainin g conduct of the Rev. Mr. KENR I CK , thil incumbent of the Peter's, in that city , who had rein,ied to rinat read the othef obefurS xemiati service over the body of a Dissrntiug Enin plary character, and a lso over the bod y of a Woman who had committed sui cide while in a state of lunac y. The Bishop of CHICHESTER could not extenuate the conduct of the Rev. Gentleman. After a few words from the Bishops of LONDON an d of EXETER, and from Lord BROUGHAM, the petition was ordered to lie on the table. Lord Baouosem moved the committal of the County Courts Extension Bil. The LORD CHANCELLOR opposed the Bill, and pointed out sevaritl objections to the proposed enactments. .It was ultimately agreed that the Bill should be re committed pre forma, and ciiscusJ.4 l on Monday. Their Lordships then acljeurne '. 7 ~1 „ ,,k In the Commons, r AmaTEr moved nu address, praying her MAJESTY M 'into the -.:: e . 4 . : •to appoint a Commie on to inquire, in I ndia, i' 0' ' '''' 'Operation and results of the exiNtirs+; laws touching the government and management of th , '-rritories under the &drainistration of the East India Company. In support { OW IN A OW" t• • AdV.V V)* 'LW .o*irt.7l • 1 6. - of his motion the Hon. and Learned Gentleman entered into a detailed statement of what he considered the abuses of the Government of India. Lord JOHN RUSSELL considered that an inquiry in India would produce great excitement and mischief. If an inquiry were necessary it had better be before a Com mittee of the House. Mr. Ht mx considered inquiry necessary, but did not approve of sending a Commission to India. Sir JAMES HoGo defended the Court of Directors and the East India Company. The motion, which was supported by Mr. BRIGHT, and opposed by Mr. MANGLES, was eventually withdrawn. Lord JOHN RUSSELL then".moved, in pursuance of the resolution of last session, that the Rouse resolve itself into a Committee to consider the mode of administering the oath of abjuration to persons professing the Jewish religion. The Noble Lord recapitulated the history of the attempt of Baron ROTEISCIULD last year to take his seat, and concluded by declaring that, in his judgment, it was for acts and not opinions that Parliament ought to legislate. Sir ROBERT Irtotis reiterated his former objections to the measure. Mr. M. GIBBON considered the measure should have been introduced earlier, and hoped that if it were again rejected in another place, the Government would take some decided step. M r . PLIIMPTRE and Mr. NEWDEGATE opposed, and Mr. WEGG-PROSSER supported the motion, which on a division was carried by 166 to 98. The usual formalities having been gone through, a Bill was introduced and read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Friday week. On the order of the day fur the committal of the Designs Act Extension Bill, Mi. ARLwRIGHT moved that it be deferred for six months. After a short discussion the amendment was nega tived by 132 to 42, and the Bill passed through Com mittee. The Apprentices to Sea Service (Ireland) Bill, the General Board of Health, and the Process and Practice (Ireland) Bill were each read a second time. The Marine Mutiny Bill and the Mutiny Bill were read a third time and passed. The House adjourned at Half-past Twelve o'clock. After exhausting every pretext and subterfuge that could be devised for procrastination, Sir CHARLES WOOD is at length driven to extremities. He must now " screw up his courage to the sticking place ;" no further excuse or apology for delay is available. The new Budget, the successor to that melons production which was so unanimously re pudiated by all classes and parties throughout the country, and so ignominiously rejected by the Par liament, must be produced this evening. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER must bring for ward an entirely new financial scheme, one that will be more just and politic, more equitable and expedient than that which so strongly excited the public indignation, that it was compelled to be withdrawn without de bate or discussion. That most injudicious project contained three fatal mistakes, any one of which was sufficient not merely to render it unpalatable to the com munity, but to render any Cabinet unpopular that could sanction such unwise and obnoxious pro positions. These were, first, the projected application of by far the greater portion of the expected surplus to the reduction of the national debt; secondly, the transparent humbug respecting the pretended aboli tion of the window-tax, while it was to be retained and perpetuated to two-thirds of the present amount, with all its monstrous inequalities : and, thirdly, and worst of all, the gross injustice of asking for a re newal of the income-tax in its present monstrous form, without alteration or adjustment of any kind, and thus making the precarious earnings of industry contribute as highly to the national Exchequer, for the liquida tion of the national liabilities and the maintenance of the national establishments, as the rents or dividends of accumulated or realised property. Sir CHARLES may have " come to a conclusion" that it should be so, but he may rest assured that the country has arrived at a very different de cision ; and obstinate as he may be, he will find that it is absurd to make the Dame Partington attempt of keeping back the tide of public opinion with his financial brooms. He must necessarily give way, and if he cannot do so with a good grace—if he do not " swallow his leek" without threats or gri m aces, his sins will be visited on his Ministerial col leagues, and the entire Cabinet will be involved in the destruction occasioned by bis recklessness and incapacity. Were it not that the income-tax will expire na turally to-morrow, we should probably have had further delays, but the speedily approaching dissolu tion of that horrid monster, and the absolute impos sibity of prolonging its hateful existence by any financial quackery, rendered it essential to bring the subject under the consideration of the popular branch of the Legislature without further procrastination. As it is, we may congratulate the English people on the great fact, that from and after the termination of the finan cial year on Saturday, the sth of April instant, the country will be free from income-tax of any descrip tion, until a new Bill receive the Legislative sanction, and pass into a law with the assent and approbation of the three estates of the realm. Even this is some thing to rejoice at. Whatever change or modifica tion may take place must prove beneficial to those who earn their daily bread by their physical or intel lectual labour, and who for the last nine years have been most unfairly plundered under the guise and sanction of law. The equal taxation of every description of income, without reference to the sources from which it may be derived, is so unsound in principle, so unequal in operation, that it would be a mere work of superero gation to offer any arguments on a point that must apparently be obvious to the meanest capacity, were it not that the British Parliament bad deliberately adopted the iniquitous system, and that a person, who unfortunately occupies a position that gives a certain degree of weight to his opinions on financial questions, had recently an nounced, the " conclusion" he had arrived at, in favour of the present form. It becomes every man, then, to pro t e st earnestly and emphatically against its con tinuance. There are no causes in existence that should induce us to consent to its renewal, for even a limited period, without an equitable adjustment e c x ar h r a i u e s d te a d s t sh w th a e s a mere temporary m akeshift to being previously effected. In replenish Exchequer, which ha d wasted away under heavy de ficiences for several successive years. In 1845 it was willingly renewed because the series of experiments had been entered upon that eventually led to the ee-d abolition trae of the bread-tax and the establishment of f r Principles. The country was enjoying a transient gleam of sunshine ; the money marketwas easy, cash abundant, and atlow rates of interest. Everything was couleur de rose, all was activity and enterprise— the people had no time to think on political subjects. The matter therefore passed almost sub silentio, and the impost was renewed without difficulty or dispute. The impost was again renewed in 1848, without discussion, but the same effect was produced from very different causes than those in operation in 1845. The nation had then passed through a commercial crisis of no ordinary magnitude. There had been a fearful pressure on persons even of the most un doubted solvency, and many first-class firms were unable to weather the storm ; credit was almost ex tinct, the operations of industry paralysed. The na- tional revenue participated in the general gloom; when the working classes were without employment, they could not indulge in their ordinary comforts, and thus the produce of the indirect taxes was materially reduced, and the national income was inadequate to meet the national expenditure. It was not at such a time, or under such circumstances, that fiscal changes could be sanctioned, or that any portion of the direct taxation of the country could be re linquished. No attempt, therefore, was made to ob tain a revision of the system—the people were con tented to resist the increase to .5 per cent. proposed by the r —RAIicELLog of the EXCHEQUE R, which they did successfully, the un f a i r and B u t that succe ss was attributable to partial assessment of the charge, rather than to I wa anyt ...:.• • • objection to its character as a direct im post.schedules D arid of the fact that incomes under proposed to be taxed as under were t h h ig e h d l e y ci a s s iv t e ho fa se il t u h r e e Ei charge from 7d. schedules A and C, that led to are now, 4d.

None now in existence can hope to see the day when Eng land will (after the next few weeks) be free from the property-tax. There is a handsome surplus in the Exchequer, so that any experiment may be reasonably tried. Everything indicates that this is the most favourable opportunity for placing the matter on an equitable basis, and the people are not disposed to let slip that opportunity to gratify the whims and caprices of the financial Minister. Let all those who are favourable to full and impartial justice to all without distinction, who think that the great constitutional principle that every man should bear his just proportion of the public burdens, and should contribute to the national expenditure secundum statum et facultates, join heart and hand, and the vic tory will be speedily achieved ; that is, if Sir C. WOOD should have the hardihood to enter the lists once more in favour of " the conclusion " he had arrived at. What matters it if the Whig Ministry fall in the contest ? Better that ten such Ministries should be swept away—that all the traditions of office, the etiquette of Downing-street should be disturbed and violated, than that the British Parliament and the British people should continue to sanction such in justice as that which would be perpetrated by the re newal of schedules D and E without alteration or modification. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals 44 yesterday. The National Assembly proceeded on Wednesday to renew the Presidents and Secretaries for the ensuing month. In the Second Committee, M. EUGENE SUE wee elected President by 18 votes against 17, given to the Due DE BRuGLIE. The negotiations for the formation of a definitive Mi nistry have again completely failed. The Messager, the organ of M. TRIERS, has the fol lowing on this subject : " Yesterday M. Odilon Barrot met M. Fould at dinner at the house of a friend. The conversation having turned on the recent failure to form a Ministry, M. Odilon Barrot declared, in the presence of M. Fould, that the President of the Republic had never called upon him for a programme of his policy, and had never made him any proposition what ever, from which it may be concluded that the President of the Republic wished to make it appear that he Was seeking to form a definitive Ministry, but in reality never made the attempt. As to the law of the 31st of May, M. Barrot denies that he had expressed himself respecting it as has been stated. He was merely disposed, by way of conciliation, to adopt the modification proposed by the committee on the Municipal Bill, if it should have received the sanction of the majority, but he went no further." The Journal des Debats publishes in &stens° the pro test of the French Government against the incorporation of the Sclavonian end Italian provinces of Austria with the German Confederation, and precedes it with the fol lowing remarks : " Our correspondent at Berlin writes us that the German journals show great discontent at the importance which the Dibats has attached to the pretensions of Austria. The as sertions, how ever, of the German journals can neither change the nature of things nor destroy facts. France has twice protested, as we have before said ; she did so at Vienna by her note of the 31st of January, and afterwards by that of the 23d of February. She has done still more ; she has very recently communicated to the Imperial Cabinet, and to all the other Cabinets who signed the convention of the Con gress of Vienna, a memorandum in which the question raised by the pretensions of Austria is discussed in all its phases, and in its relations with the politics of Europe. Has Austria the right to demand the admission into the Germanic Confedera tion of her Selavonian and Italian possessions? Does it come within the competency of the Confederation 2 Both of these points are treated at length in the memorandum of the French Cabinet, and the dangers of such a system to the Germanic Confederation and to the peace of Europe are forci bly pointed out." The brother of M. BAROCHE, the ex-Minister, died yesterday. There was a perfect panic at the close of business at the Bourse yesterday, and the most improbable:reports were circulated to account for the fall in Government Stock.

The Empror of AUSTRIA has caused Venice to be declared a free port. THE KAFIR WAR. We have received papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the SO of February. The intelligence contained in them from the seat of war on the eastern frontier comes down to the Ist of February . In that part of the colony matters remained much in the same state as that described in the last ad vices. General orders had been received at Graham's Town from head-quarters at King William's Town, of the 28th and 29th January, nominating the officers of the Gene dendal levy, 360 strong, and of the Cape Town and Al bany levies. Orders had also been issued for a column of 2,200 men under Colonel Mackinnon, to move on Forts White and Cox the next day (30th January)—the main object being to throw supplies into those forts. From Fort Peddie the following notice appears in the same paper, under date the 30th of January:— Captain Davies marched from here on Sunday with his men, about four hundred in number, leaving all their wag gons behind. He took the route by Wesleyville, thus avoid ing Line Drift, where it is understood Seyolo remains in position in great force." Letters from Graaf Beinet of the 31st of January describe the state of the districts of Cradock and So merset as very alarming, the Kafir population having made common cause with the tribes more to the east, while at the same time great dissatisfaction was exhi bited by the Burghers or Dutch settlers in the sur rounding districts. It was, however, expected that the Civil Commis sioner would succeed in persuading 300 or 400 Burghers to proceed to the relief of Cradock. The po sition of these districts, which lie to the back of the colony towards the west, renders this insurrection and disaffection more important. Public prayers were about to be offered up in Cape Town for the removal of the affliction under which the colony was suffering. The following passages are from the Graham's Town Journal. Alluding to some proceedings at Fort Peddie, that paper most properly urges that care should be taken to secure our possession of the allegiance of the Fingoes, arid not to risk its loss by inconsiderate treat ment:— " The investigation into the disaffection of the Hottentots at Theopolis having proceeded so far as to criminate three of the residents of that institution, they were forwarded to the prison at Graham's Town, where they were safely lodged about eleven o'clock this morning. The ringleader, Kieviet Piqueurs, is one of the number. The prisoners were sent in a waggon, in charge of the chief constable of Bathurst, and escorted by twelve coloured men, chiefly Fingoes. Two others were apprehended by the Field-Commandant when at Theopolis on the 25th inst., but the evidence against them not being of a sufficiently conclusive character to warrant their detention, they were consequently liberated. Lynx, or Lings as he himself writes it, the writer of the letter so often alluded to, is also in custody, in separate con finement, so that he may not exercise his persuasive powers over others, to the working of further mischief. " The chief evidence against the prisoners is founded upon the oaths of certain Fingoes, who unhesitatingly declare that in their opinion the Theopolis Hottentots would have joined the Kafirs had the enemy appeared in that vicinity. One of the witnesses corroborates the statement made by the Rev. Mr. Smit, that that gentleman advised the people not to follow the rebellious course that the Blinkwater Hottentots had pursued. "The matter is not yet cleared, as further evidence will yet be sent in, but as the affair stands at present there is nothing of a more seriou s char g e a g ainst those in custody than that of ' unlawfully assembling ,' Lc., so that Pi q ueur and his coll ea gues stand in the same pos ition as the Kafir pH- Boners of war. "The seven Hottentots, whose committal to prison we no ticed last week, were liberated to - day , an d have set off to Theopolis to look after their crops. None of them have guns, and the institution has been rendered se far powerless as that a small force might at any time inflict a wholesome chas tisement upon those who rebel.

These are hemmed in, and derided'le h &c., that they will have permission to depart bugefnhtlee men below, who have signified to the Rev. Mr.y the sincerity is doubtful, and they have consequently'rpeomrttaisna3e.dis Their sufferings must have been very great, and re that they have been without provisions during th e last three days. Measures are in train by the good people of Fort Beaufort, assisted by the Fingoes, to effect their deliverance this night, and may Heaven smile upon their efforts! "Further accounts from Fort Hare, dated yesterday, state that the resident magistrate of Kat River, Mr. Wienand, arrived there on the 29th ult., escorted by a loyal party of Hottentots, among whom were ;the Field-Comets Peffer and Botha. This officer escaped with no other property than the clothes on his person. The rebel Hottentots, under a man named Ilithaalder, gave Mr. W. safe conduct through the country in their possession. The party took the road to Fort Beaufort, in prefence to proceeding to Fort Hare—to which place Mr. Wienand was subsequently es corted by Commandant Bovey with some men under his orders. So exasperated are the Fingoes at the atrocities of the Hottentot rebels, that Col. Sutton deemed it necessary to give an escort to the party who came in with the magis trate in order to save them from the vengeance of these people. It is said that many of the Hottentots have ex pressed a wish to return to their allegiance, and that Colonel Sutton has given them a few days to present themselves in Beaufort and deliver up their arms. " It is further said, that Jan Hermanus, eldest son of the late rebel Chief, has requested to be permitted to come in, but whether the request has been complied with or not is not known. A rumour is also afloat, that the forty Hot tentots who, after being stripped of their booty and dis armed, were permitted by Mr. Dodds Pringle to go at large, fell subsequently into the hands of the Fingoes and were destroyed. This report, however, requires confirmation— while, even if the catastrophe be true, the circumstances which led to it are totally unknown. It is stated, on what is considered good authority, that the Hottentots are very short of ammunition, and it is supposed that 500 mounted Burgher , would, in a few days, disperse or destroy the whole of the rebel bands, who are, however, in the mean time roam ing about unmolested, feasting in the dwellings of the farmers, and laying waste the country. The missionary Niven is still at Fort Armstrong, which post is now occupied by the rebels, who have, it would appear, not treated him with any violence." GRAAFF-REINET. Graaff-Reinet, Jan. 31. I herewith send you a most painful letter we received last night from Cradock, appealing to the inhabitants here for assistance. We are daily receiving dispatches land reports from Cradock and Somerset, which latter place is in great danger. They are fearful of an attack upon their town. The respectable and loyal inhabitants here are now making active preparations to proceed to Somerset. I have no doubt some will go on to Cradock, although the greatest danger is apprehended at the former place. There will I have no doubt be 300 men to their assistance ere you receive this. The Kafirs of the place have been mustered, and forwarded on to Kafirland via Cradock, under an escort from this place; they however endeavoured to escape the vigilance of the men who were sent out with them. An order was afterwards sent out to recal them, when one-third of the number came back leaving the others to escape. I believe there were 130 in the whole, men, women, and children, that left here. The wo.. men commenced the attack, by throwing their petticoats and blankets over the heads of the watch, and commenced striking them with sticks,l stones, &c. The Kafirs who escaped ob tained possession of two of the guns belonging to the watch. However, one of the Kafirs who was attached to the waggons was accidentally wounded, but not severely. Strange to say, from the account of the men who formed the escort, their guns would not go off when they attempted to fire. The few Kafirs who were allowed to remain have all since left the town, including a Kafir named Buoy, who was in the service of the Southeys for 15 years; he has two wag gons and a good number of oxen, and is in good circum stances. The people here are much alarmed. You will please insert within the columns of your valuable 'ournal the enclosed letter from Cradock _ _ " Cradock, January 29, IESI. " Gentlemen,—On behalf of the Board of Safety of this town, acting fur and on behalf of the inhabitants of this town, I am desired to address you to implore your assist ance now that the time of our extreme peril is at hand. Last week we dispatched letters to the Board of Safety of Graaff-Reinet, to the Civil Commissioner, and also the Rev. Mr. Murray, stating the peril in which we were then placed, and entreating by all the motives of humanity and fellow feeling that volunteers would come to our assistance, from your district, to save us from destruction. Te the statements then made we have now to add that information has just reached us that Shiloh is in the hands of the enemy—that Whittlesea has been attacked and is now surrounded by thousands of Kafirs— that nearly the whole, if not the whole, of the Kat River Hottentots have joined the confederation against us, and that we are daily expect ing an attack on this place, which we are by no means able to protect. " We have deputed our excellent friend, J.Van Dyk, Esq., to proceed to Graaff-Reinet, to intreat the inhabitants not to abandon us, our wives, and children , to the frightful cala mity which is now so near. We have no hope of saving our property. We want only to save our lives from the savage enemy ; and our wives and children from what might be more dreadful even than death itself. " We might remind you, that if we are destroyed, you will in a few days see the enemy at your own doors, but we do not wish to dwell on such a possibility. We would rather ground our entreaty on your best feelings, as men, and Christians, to come and help us. " We need not say more; Mr. Van Dyk will explain our whole situation. For God's sake, do not delay; a few days more it may be too late. Timely assistance may save some hundreds of the families of your countrymen from destruc tion by the enemy.—l am, on behalf of the Board, " G. H. GRE3N, Wesleyan Minister. " To the Inhabitats of Graaff-Reinet." The following public notice has been issued by the Civil Commissioner of Gratiff-Reinet:-- " The Civil Commissioner having given himself a great deal of trouble to get the burghers to proceed to the border in defence of the colony and their fellow-colonists, and having been informed that, notwithstanding all that has b-en done, the majority of them are still unwilling, and that some object to the ballot that has taken place. preferring to be ordered out by their field-cornet, according to his list. He has come to the resslution to cancel the ballot, and without having recourse to any measure of compulsion once more to appeal to the good sense and Christian feeling of the inhabitants. " He trusts that no further time will be lost, but that all the men that can be spared from here will voluntarily come forward and make themselves ready to start in a body on Thursday, 6th February next, by which time the Civil Commissioner is sanguine they will have been joined by their friends from the country, to whom this appeal will be made known by the different field-cornets. " The Civil Commissioner is prepared to render every as sistance in mounting and equipping those who may not have the means of doing so themselves. He would request each man who may be so situate to procure for himself a good ser viceable horse, saddle, bridle, and gun, at reasonable rates, for which, when produced to him and approved of; payment will be made, and to such as find their own horses and equipments, the t,ivil Commissioner will, if required, grant a receipt for whatever has been furnished, specifying the value of the same. " The Civil Com missioner trusts that none will be found, who, possessing a horse or any of these articles would yet call upon Government for the same, as the difficulty of pro curing them at present would only cause unnecessary delay. " He knows that there are many in affluent circum stances, who, as they may not be able to proceed themselves, can procure others in their stead, finding them in every thing needful. " Ammunition will of course be provided and rations fur nished. Rations will also be supplied during the absence of the men to their families who stand in need thereof. "'[he Civil Commissioner would impress on the inhabi tants the absolute necessity of their responding to the call now made upon them, sensible as they must now be of the danger which threatens the colony. lie cannot refrain froth quoting the following passages of a letter, addressed to him by a gentleman possessing the most ample sources of infor mation : " The colony is now threatened with a more formidable and destructive combination than has ever been known before in this country. " The Kafirs are using very great efforts to induce all native people to sit still or join against us. "The Kafirs have resolved to exterminate the white man. Although they will not succeed in this, they will certainly inflict an irreparable calamity upon e colony if white men will not at once lay aside all disputes and unitedly meet the enemy. " The Governor is now firmly resolved to crush t cut power of the enemy; but to do this the colony must unite and put forth a strong effort. " It is of vital importance that the colonists fully under stand their real position. If they come forward the work will soon be done, and that effectually, by the blessing of God. Never was there a moment in the history of the colony when delay was so fraught with danger. Division among colonists now, or even a few days' delay, may bring upon a great portion of the colony unheard-of calamities. " I trust that the colonists will be roused to a full sense of their danger—a danger which, under God, they are fully able to meet, if they will but determine to do it. " W. C. Vow RYstkvELn, Civil Commissioner." The incumbency of Frimley, which was rendered vacant by the death of the Rev. George Edward Holiest, 111. A.., has been conferred on the Rev. Frederick Wickham, M.A., Second Master of Winchester College. THE STIPENDIARY MAGISTRATE OF LIVERPOOL. — We regret to state that our stipendiary magistrate, Edward Rushton, Esq., is at present so seriously ill that his recovery is a matter of doubt. His complaint is erysipelas. The answer to inquiries on Thursday was, that he was not better. BEETHOVEN QUARTET SOCIETY.—The first per formance of the present season took place on Wednesday evening, the quartets selected for the occasion being No. 5 of Op. 18 in A, No. 10 Op. 74 in E gat, and No. 13 Op. 130 in B fiat, the last being one of the posthumous quartets, or so called. The performers were Herr Ernst, Mr. H. C. Cooper, Mr. Hill, and M. Rousselot, the principal director of the so ciety. Herr Ernst, who assumed the principal violin, was very unequal in his playing, being frequently at fault in his intonation and not always adhering to his text, though we are bound to say that he elicited many of the mere recondite beauties of the wonderful composer with great effect. It is to be regretted that so great a player as Mr. Cooper should always be set down to the subordinate violin. His mechan ism is always faultless, and as an executant he is undoubt edly very far superior to Herr Ernst, notwithstanding his great reputation. We are convinced that M. Rousselot would find it greatly to the advantage of the society if he would occasionally place Mr. Cooper at the first violin. The subscribers generally would be pleased with the change, and they would not be slow to appreciate his extraordinary talent. It is unnecessary to state that Mr. Hill and M. RousAelot were perfect in their respective instruments, and executed their several solos with great accuracy and finish. THE BOILER EXPLOSION AT MANCHESTER.--The adjourned inquest on view of the bodies of the nine persons killed by the explosion of the boiler in the steam saw-mills of Mr. Williamson, in Hanover-street, Manchester, was re sumed yesterday. Egerton, the engineer, was in attendance, in custody. A considerable amount of testimony relating to circumstances immediately preceding and following the ex plosion was given, but eventually the inquiry was again ad joarned. Mr. Fairburn, the eminent engineer, was in at tendance, and will be examined. TSB STOCKPORT BOILER EMPLOSION.—The inquest was proceeding when our account left Stockport yesterday, and was not concluded until a late hour in the evening. Some very singular evidence was tendered, rendering the circumstances connected with the cause of the terrible disas ter more mysterious than before. Two of the bleachers swear positively that their kiers were well supplied with steam up to the moment of the explosion from the high-pressure boiler, while the junction valve between that boiler and their kiers was found in the ruins so tightly closed that no steam could have passed in. After hearing some additional evi dence, the proceedings were adjourned to Monday next, when it is expected the important evidence of Professor Hodgkin son and Mr. Lillie will be given. The general impression is that they will condemn the shape of the boiler, and its want of stays beneath the fireplace. TEE BRIXTON MURDER.—PLYMOUTII, APRIL 2. Al the re-examination of the prisoner, Willi= Rowe, befero the county magistrates at Kidgeway (Plymouth) this day, he was fully committed to take his trial at the next assuies for the wilful murder of John Bunker. a servant buy in ale employ of the prisoner's father. Great excitement continues throughout the district, and the committal of the prisoner was to the evident satisfaction of the crowded court. EVENING, APRIL 4, 1851 THE SHARE MARKETS. BRITISH RAILWAYS.

The market was heavy, and mid and low qualities of American were 1 / 8 d per lb. lower; other sorts are less changed.—ln Railway Shares a fair business was done at previous rates. There has been a steady market for Grain this morning, and with fair sales. Complaints of dulness are still prevalent in the Colonial markets, and business does :not increase, the sales made being for immediate consumption. The Board of Trade Returns for the month to the sth inst. show a:dimished im portation of some staples. Dyes and dyeing materials con tinue flat. On the Continent business is as dull as here. The speculative purchases of tallow last month are estimated at 25,000 casks of first sort Y. C., and the chief part is already in the hands of the buyers. The recent letters from St. Petersburgh confirm the report of a short supply. Less is expected by one-half from South America, but rather more from Australia. The supply of home continues good.

Large bodies of troops and volunteers , however, were moving up to their assistance, and forts White and Cox were expected to be speedily relieved. Doubts are expressed as to the policy of making the services of the Zoolus available against the Kafirs, as it may teach them the art of war upon European principles. At Amsterdam on Wednesday Dutch Stock experienced very little change. Spanish, however, was sold freely at lower rates. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Business in the English Stock Market is comparatively quiet, as the Budget comes on this evering, and the quar terly revenue returns will be made up tomorrow.

CORN EXCHAKGE.7-(FRIDAY) - - - A fair average supply of English Wheat has been received up to our market this week coastwise, viz., 2,540 quarters. The arrivals of that grain fresh up to-day by land-carriage were very moderate, and of middling quality. On the whole the attendance of both town and country buyers was toler ably good; whilst the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce ruled steady, at prices fully equal to those of Monday last, and a good clearance was effected. Nearly 8,000 quarters of foreign Wheat have come to hand. Selected qualities moved off readily, at full rates of currency; and we had a better inquiry for the middling and inferior kinds. The show of both English and foreign Barley being sm.ll, that article sold steadily at very full prices. °will; to the large supply, 7,750 quarters, there was less doing in Malt, but we have no decline to notice in its value. We had a steady, though not to say brisk, sale for Oats, at fully the late advance. Indian Corn and Flour were quite as dear as on Monday. The imports from France have materially fallen off.

Although our market to-day was very scantily supplied with Beasts, at least two-thirds of which were of inferior quality, the demand for that description of stock ruled heavy, at barely Monday's prices, the extreme figure for the best sorts being 3s 8d per Sibs. The number of Sheep was very moderate, but quite equal to the wants of the buyers, the trade proving very inactive, at last week's currency.

TOBACCO. —The same apathy and dulness, approaching almost to a cessation of business in some descriptions, which characterised the month of February, have conti nue d during last month, and we regret to state that the copious remark' and advice so liberally given by our respected contemporary on the tat ult., have tailed in producing an apparent effect in the feeling of buyers. American Tobacco of all sorts has been much neglected, sales not having exceeded 400 hhds, and in the absence of business it is a matter of some diffi culty to give a correct statement of the market; but in the limited sales effected, and which have consisted chiefly of low and ordinary sorts, both for home trade and for exportation , a slight reduction in price has been submitted to, but not of sufficient importance to warrant us in altering our quotation* which we have resumed accordingly. Holders of good and fine qualities, especially for home trade, appear determined to wait patiently the revival of demand. Import* 1,780 hhds. Deliveries, 1,022 hhds. against $49 hhds. in the corresponding month of 1850. Stock 26,553 hhds against 25,240 in 1850, 24,343 hhds in 11149, 29,548 hhds in 1847, and '26,620 in 1846. In Virginia a veil moderate extent of business has been transacted; the pre" sent state of the stock, the numerous and concurring account/ of the great inferiority of the last crops, not having stimu lated buyers to purchase except for their immediate wants; prices have remained very tim. In Kentucky leaf and stripe the same indifference to purchase has existed, and the trifling business done has been almost confined to the lowest quali ties in the market. Maryland has been in good demand and sales may be estimated at nearly 200 hhds. Havannah To bacco has continued in very limited demand; sales during the month have been almost confined to a few bales for es portation. Recent advices from Havannah represent the new crop abundant, and very fine in quality; prices were ruling very high. Havannah Segars of suitable descriptions for general trade have been taken freely at full rates. Mg' nilla Cheroots in moderate demand; a few cases were taken fur home consumption ; prices steady. Brasil leaf; a parce( of 74 bales, ex Siren, just arrived, bee been sampled, and is now on show. In Manilla, Havannah Seed Leaf, Porto Rico, and Florida nothing done. Yara its steady demand at previous rates. In Cuba sales were made of about 300 bales, nearly all for exportation. St. Domingo very little done. In German Leaf a moderate extent of business has been done, the principal part in ordinary old for cutting purposes; a few small parcels of the new crop have arrived, in bad condition, and quite unfit for immediate use' Colombian (Ambalema and Giron), sales have been made to some extent, at full prices; a parcel of roll recently emaied has been sampled, and has turned out leafy and of good quality. Amersfoort sales chiefly confined to ordinal sorts tor cutting purposes. Stock of old dry description 18 quite exhausted. For Negro Head and Cavendish demand has been active, taking into account present high prices , and sales may be estimated at nearly 600 packages; of, stale parcels, which have been fl oa ti n g a b ou t th e ma rket' for some time, a reduction of former rates has been submitted to; prices for good and fine have been fully supported. Smalls of good quality in demand. GREEN FRUIT.—Tbe demand for Oranges has improved this week; a parcel of St. Michael's, two of Lisbon, and Or Oporto, sold by Keeling and Hunt at public sale; St. chael's went lower, quality being indifferent, and Lemon° dull of sale. Sound parcels are held for a better market' Seville Sours are selling freely, but with a heavy loss to the shippers. i%uts of all kinds dull, but a renewal of consunlr Lion is expected at the approaching holidays. , t • ro ttto EPSOM RACES• (THIS DAY.-BY EXPRESS. ) Epsom Trial Stakes.
