GARDNE WS WORM MEDICINE. It is a melancholy fact that thousands are suffering the /se vation of health, sand are ultimately brought to a premature death by a ca se so prevalent as that of worms in the human body. It is proved by the bills of mortality that one-half of the children horn are cutoff before attaining their seventh year. The source of thislearful mortality is found to exist in that foul state of the stomach and b ,wets which children are so liable to, and produces the genera tion of Worms. 'I he four moat common species are— ASCARIDES • VERMIC CLARIS, commonly called Maw or Thread Worm, is about half-an•inch in length, and the thickness of a thread. They infest every part of the alimentary canal, but principally the lower extremity of the bowels, occasioning pain. Their increase is most rapid; and the number existing in one individual is* often incredible, and this in persons of all ages. TRICURIS VIILGARIS; ' or long Thread • Worm, is about two inches in length, and taper down from the head to the tail; they are not, so common as the former. These also infest the whole ali mentary mini, and are equally tormenting. • • TERES LUMBRICOIDES, or long round Worms, are generally from 4 to 12 inches in length, of the substance of a goose-quill: Those exist in the regions of the stomach; causing sickness, bile, fla tulence, with headache. T,EN IA OSCULIS 11ARGINALIRUS, or Tape Worm. The dis tinguiihing character o' this species consists in the ()scale, or mouths; ' being situated upon the margin of each joint, which is flat. Tliey vary in breadth, and also in length from •6 to 170 yards, and Vhh. joints decreaso in all cases as they approach the head. Extraordb nary specimens of the tribe have been exhibited at the Museum• of the late Dr. Gardner, to the astonishment of thousands who have witnessed them. This celebrated mcdicine has stood the test of half a century's ex - - Pertence, effectually destroying, every kind of Wo , rns, and rea ovine all Impurities , ro n the stomach' and howelA, by invigorating Nvlitela Worms are not only expelled, but their veneration prevented ; and may be administered with contib nce to ch!ldren, or the most debili tated adult, without restraint in diet or confinement.

This work contains RR accurate and complete account of the ioatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It ur.- !Ortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul gence and vicious habits, while sneering from their invariable con sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi &an for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro neously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance 'where smile it can be procured. Dr. FJAVNIERT •has to on the highest modlcal honours, ns his €llplomas testify, and the great extent of his practice far many years is a guarantee for his prafeasional experi ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

Sunday last, at his seat, Painsthorpa Hall, near Pocklington, Yorkshire, full of years, respect, honours, and distinguished services. He was born i❑ 1769, entered the navy November, 1787, and served afloat mostly during the war for more than thirty years. The following sketch of his career is from 013yrne's "Naval Biography" : " Sir Charles Richardson entered the navy, Nov. 23, 1787, as captain's servant, on board cho Vestal, 28, Captain Richard John Strachan. Ho shortly after wards proceeded on an embassy to China, and, on re- moving - with Sir Richard to the Phoenix, 36, was pre sent, Nov. 13, 1791, while cruising :off the Malabar coast in company with the Perseverance frigate, in an obstinate engageanent (produced by a resistance on the part of the French captain to a search leciets im posed by the British upon two merchant vessels under his orders) with La Resolue, of 46 guns, whose coleura were not struok until she had herself sustained a loss of 25 men killed and 40 wounded, and had occa sioned one of the Phcenix of 6 kill d and 11 wounded. While on the East India station Mr. Richardson was for several months employed in the boats in co-operating up different rivers, with the army under Sir Rebert Aber- - crombie in its operations against Tippoo Sail. On his return to England in 1793 he joined (he had previously attained the ratings of midshipman and master's mate) the Alexander, 74, attached to the Channel flset; and on August 4, 1794, after having; fought in the Royal George, 100, flag-ship of Sir Alexander Hood, in Lord Howe's actions of May 21 and Jane 1, he was made lieutenant in the Circe, 28, Captain Peter Haikett. Of that frigate be was first lieutenant during the great mutiny at the Note; where his exertions in preventing the crew from acquiring the ascendancy gained him, in common with the captain and other officers of the ship, the thanks of the Admiralty. The Circe forming one of Lord Duncan's repeaters in the action off Cemperdewn, Oct. 11, 1797, Lieutenant Richardson on that occtaion achieved an important exploit. Fearing lest the Dutch Admiral, De Winter, after his own ship had been dis masted and silenced, should effect his escape on board some other, he volunteered to go in an open boat end take him out. Succeeding in his object, he had the honour of presenting him in person to the British commander-in chief, who in consequence received him on promotion in January, 1798, een board his flagship, the Venerable, 74, and made him. March 6 following, h.s signal lieutenant in thnKent, 74, Capt. W. Johnstone Hope. In the following year, being sent with the expe dition to Holland, Lieutenant Richardson c unmandea a division of seamen attached to the army under Sir Ralph Abercrombie, from the period of the debarkation near the Holder until the surrender of the Dutch squedron under AdmiralStorey. He was then ord ere d home in charge of a Dutch 68-gun ship. • Some time after he had rejoined the Kent he sailed with Sir Rslph Aber crombie for Egypt, where he assisted in laediug the troops and fought in the battle cf March 8, 1801. In 'the course of the same month he removed to the Pene lope, 36; Captain Hon. IL Blae kwood, and on July 12, 1802, having previously convej ed Sir Alex. John Ball to Malta, he was nominated acting commander of the Alli gator, 28, armee en-flute. While in that ship, to which ho was confirmed Oct. 9, 1802, Capt. Richardsoa directed the movements of the flotilla employed at the reduction of Demerara, Essequibo, and Berbice iu 1803, and was highly spoken of in the public dispatches fir his eine - Lions at the taking of Surinam in the spring of 1804. On July 6, in that year e he was in consequence invested by Sir Samuel aiod with the command of the Cenatur, 74, the ship bearing the broad pendant-au act which the Admiralty confirmed on the.27th of September en suing. He returned to England in March, 1805, and was subsequently , appointed, January 11, 1806, ti the Cmsar, 80; and went in pursuit, under the flag of Sir Richard Strechan, of a squalron which had escaped frt rn Brest; was employed oft' Rochefort, and proceeded to the Me diterranean in quest of another French scpadran under Rear-Admiral Allecnand. Ho assisted in the same ship under Rear-Admiral StOpford at the destruc tion of three French frigates beneath the batteries of Sable d'Olerine, and of the enemy's squadron in Aix Reads, in February and April, 1809; and in the following July sailed again under Sir Richard Strachan with the expedition to the Scheldt. On thu town of Canavere offering to surrender, Captain Richardson, who was the senior nasal officer at the time on shore, arranged with Lieutenant-General Fraser the terms upon which the proposal was accepted. During the investment of Flushing he landed at the head of a brigade of seamen, and commanded a battery of six 24- pounders with much effect. His services throughout the operations wertaso important, and his zeal and bravery so very conspicuous, that he elicited the public praise of the Earl of Chatham, the military commander-in-chief, and the high approbation of Lieutenant-General Sir Eyre Coote. who conducted the sieg', and of Major- General At'Lcod, commanding officer of the Royal Ar-' finery. On August 25, 1811, bring at the mouth of the Gironde in the (Semiramis, and in company with the Diana, 38, Captain Richardson, while his consort was engaged with the (lately British) gun-brig Teaser, of 12 18-pounder carronades, two long 18'.s, and 85 men. succeeded • in a manner that characterised the officer and seaman,' in driving on shore and burning under the guns of the batteries at Royan, Le Rimier, national brig of 16 guns and 136 men. In consideration of this exploit he received the warmest acknowledgments' of his senior efficer, Captain William Ferris, of the Diana, and the thanks of the Board of Admiralty. The Semiramis afterwards made a large number of prizes, and among them the Grand Jean Bart, privateer of 14 guns and 106 men. During Captain Richardson's command of the Topaze a dispute arose between him and the authorities of Canton, which before it could be adjusted became so serious, that ell commercial intercourte was suspended, the British factory obliged to embark without puttee, and the Hon. Company's ships to leave the Thais. The disturbances had their origin in the circumstance of a fire from the Topaze having killed two out of a number of Chinese who had severely wounded fourteen of her crew while employing filling water at Limit). On June 4, 1815, Captain Richardson was nominated a C.B , and on Jane 29, 1841, a K.C.B. He became a rear-admiral Jan. 10, 1837, nod a vice-admiral Dec. 17, 1847." Rear-Admiral Edward Ratsey, by the death of Sir Charles Richardson, becomes Vice-Admiral of the Blue, vice John Sykes, to be Vice-Admiral of the White. Captain his Grace Algernon Duke of Northumber land (August 19, 1815) now attains the rank of Rear- Admiral of the Blue on the active list, vice Sir Augustus W. J. Clifford, Bart., C. 8., to be Rear- Admiral of the White, vice Cuthbert Featherstone Daly, C.D., to be Rear-Admiral of the Red. With this promotion two retired captains, being senior to the Duke of Northumberland, attain the rank of retired Rear-Admiral, without any increase to their pay—namely, Captains Archib a ld Tisd a le (July 14, 1815) and Joseph Guiston Garland (Aug. 19, 1815). The senior captain now on the active list for pro motion is Cap ain John Toup Nicolas, C. 8., K.H. (August 26, 1815). Captain William Sandon (1828) succeeds to the half-pay list of 14s. 6d. per diem, and Captaim Robert .Smart, K. 11., comes within the se cond senior list, Captain George Woolcombe (1830) having accepted the retirement. THE COURT OF INQUIRY ON COMMODORE PLUM. RIDGE.—DEVONPORT, Nov. 11.—The court of in quiryScommenced at ten o'clock this morning, con tinuing to a quarter to four in the afternoon, and then adjourned till ten o'clock to-morrow morning. The paying off of the Cambrian is again postponed till Wednesday. Several of the witnesses examined on Saturday were re-examined to-day, and several others were called. Many of the charges are of a trifling nature, and may be considered frivolous. THE DOCKS AT DEVONPORT AGAIN..--A defect has bzen discovered in the screw of the Wasp, 12, Commander Crozier, to repair which the ship must be docked. In consequence of the want of accommodation at Devonport, and the shallowness of those available, this sloop will have to be detained several days from proceeding with the mails to the coast of Africa. Rear-Admiral - Superintendent Prescott, C. 8., •struck his - flag on Friday evening at sun se t, an d 'pro ceeded on three days leave. He returned on Monday afternoon, and his flag was re-hoisted on board the Britannia, 120, at Portsmouth. A marine artilleryman belonging to the Hogue, 60, screw-ship, Captain Macdougall, was corporally for r p e u p n e i a s t h e e d d d o e n s e b r t o i a o r n d h h e e r was s l k o t o h n e r M w d u a y m a m u o r r a s i. n sgu; 'et), and was afterwards discharged the service. Indefatigable 50, Captain Smart, K.H., is ordered to Devonport, for the West Indies. Inflexible steam-sloop, Commander P. H. Dyke, has touched the ground again in the West Indies. This vessel has an unfortunate propensity to ground ing. Sbe does it so easy that those on board are never aware of the fact at the time. Geyser steam-sloop, Commander Tatham, is de tained at Devonport from proceeding to Rio, until further orders. Calliope, 26, has been taken out of dock at Devonport ; and the Avon steam-vessel has been taken in. Retribution, 28, steam-frigate, Captain Warden, has been taken alongside Portsmouth dockyard jetty under the sheers, for the purpose of receiving her six additional 32 -pounder guns, four of which will be mounted aft on the main deck and two forward. She is at present coaling. As she is much lighter than when she had her 800-horse power engines her copper wss much too high; a sheet and a half has been taken off all round, which will improve her appearance. She will, no doubt be much improved by her addi tional false keel and stern post, whereby her rudder is thrown eighteen inches further aft, and is fourteen inches deeper. Styx steam-sloop, Mr. Brown master in charge, did not return to Plymouth from Portsmouth till yestcrdly, whai she sailed, taking down some officers and men for the Albion. FORTSM3UTH, TUESDAY.—The Fantotne, 16, is being rapidly rigged by the dockyard riggers, for commission and service on the New Zealand station. The crew of the TurkiSh frigate:Mizaty Zafir were exercised at great gun exercise and smallarm and cut lass practice. They went through all the manoeuvres of priming, loading, and firing three times within the minute, and the captain stated they could fire their great guns twice in that space of time. The Vic tory's apprentices fire three times in 40 seconds; twice in a minute for the Turks is not bad work. The Orientals are very hospitable and polite to all visitors. They were entertained at a soirée dansante last evening, by the Han. Lady Capel, the wife of the Commander-in• Chief, at Hollingworth's Rooms, on Soutbsea-beach, where a brilliant circle was invited to meet them. Companies.

ATTEMPTED MURDER.—A daring attempt to mur der the valuer of Caldecot enclosure, Monmouthshire, was made on Thursday night. Mr. Williams had retired to rest at his lodgings, when at about two o'clock in the morning some miscreant, who must have known the room in which he usually slept, fired a charge of slugs through the window. Fortunately he escaped without injury ; but with a view to deter others from similar acts of outrage, the authorities have deemed it proper to offer a reward of 501. for the discovery of the offender or offenders. PROPOSED REMOVAL OF SMITH FIELD MARKET. (From the Weekly Dispatch.) Mr. Editor,--In pursuance of the promise made at the conclusion of my last letter on the above interest ing subject, I will now lay before your readers some few extracts of the evidence given before the Commis• sioners, to whose report I have already drawn their attention; hut before Ido so it is but justice to state that, throughout the very lengthened inquiry in which they were engaged, the Com missioners expressed the utmost readiness to act on that long recognized principle of justice cf hearing both sides, and accordingly their very first step was to (wen a communication with the authori ties of the City, requesting the Corporation would appoint a deputation to confer with them upon the several subjects embraced in their Commission. A de putation from the Market Improvement Committee had an interview with the Commissioners, who txplairied to the *deputation the nature of the inquiry intrusted to them, end solicited from them such assi,tance and information as appeared to them necessary to a full investigation of the matter; and with statements of the principal advantages resulting from the exist leg state of the market, or of any disadvantages, with suggestions for their removal. On the other hand, they had had before them a deputation from the Is lington Cattle Market Company, representing the interests of that body, and also various witnesses prhclically acquainted with the business of the market. Whether the evidence of these parties justified the report made by the Commissioners, I must leave the public to decide. Many persons who are not practically acquainted with, or have peil very little attention to the subject, consider th a there would not be the slightest difficulty in establishing a new market fur the sale of live cattle at a distance of one or two miles from Smithfield. I beg to recommend to the notice ( f all such persons a brief extract from the evidence of Mr. Deputy Hicks, who gave the following account of the result of his experience as to the establishing of new markets elsewhere, and the abolition of old and well established ones. He stated that he had seen the rise and fail of many markets, and had traced the origin of every market round Lon don, and he could not name a market that had been attempted tube established within the last 30 years that hid not prcved a failure. Fleet-market, which he had known for many years, and in which very nearly the whole of the numerous occupiers got a living for their fainilies, was removed into Farringdore market, and he saw the break up of nearly every person who previously got a living in Fleet-market after he be came an occupier in Farringdon-market. Hunger ford-market was re-modelled at a vast expense, and qarted upon the same principle, and a more wretched failure never took place. Among the proposed advantages, it was to do away with the inconvenience of Billingsgate; but Billings gate still retains its trade. Another, called Portland market, was established in his recollection, and which was also a perfect failure. A market was opened in the New-cut, Lambeth, which was shut up in twelve months. Another was opened in Finsbury, where a large market was set up, and that has been a failure fsr many years. He therefore seriously con templated the removal of Smithfield-market as a cer tain failure, from the fact of the difficulty of esta blishing new markets. The failure of each of the markets specified by Mr. Hicks is a "great fact," that admits of no denial. Let any one visit Farringdon market, and he will find two -thirds of the covered portion of it completely deserted; and yet when that market first opened, anybody who had ventured to predict that in a few years it would be nearly tenant less, would have been laughed at for a foul. There is a strong attachment to old markets, not only on the part of dealers therein, but of the public iu general ; the " old market place " is held sacred in every large town in the kingdom. The construction of the market may be altered from time to time, but the site is connected with so many old associations, is a matter of history, and has been approved of by the authorities froth one genera tion to another, so that any attempted removal of it is hardly ever successful. At all events, before the remo val of a market is resolved upon, the place to which it is to be removed should be definitely settled ; but in stead of this, no clearly defined plan for a substituted market, with the means or cost of carrying it out, has been suggested in the Report, so that the public are not afforded the opportunity of judging whether it is likely to obviate the assumed inconveniences of the present one, the removal of Smithfield being alto gether an experimental proposition, and the Report of the Commissioners leaving the position of the site wholly undefined, excepting, indeed, it is said that it would be desirable to remove it to a site detached from the central posi tion of the metropolis, and that several eligible sites may be found on the northern suburb of the town. With regard to the alleged unhealthiness of Smith field, in consequence of the cattle market being held therein, one of the witnesses examined (Mr. Blackett), who has carried on the business of a woollen-draper in Smithfield for many years (he and his father before him for upwards of 70 years), stated that he remem bered both the occasions when the cholera prevailed in London, and on neither occasion was there a single case in Smithfield; and the late Dr. Lynch, whose exertions in the cause of Sanitary Rethrm cost him his life, and must be fresh in the recollection of every citiz•le of London, on one occasion told him that, so far from considering Smithfield as an healthy place, he considered it to be eminently healthy. The wit ness added, that there had never been any sickness in his own family, and he did not know that any of his neighbours had complained of any sickness occasioned by their living in the market. On the subject of accident, he stated that during the whole period of his residence there he had never witnessed any serious accident in Smithfield, and though his shop-windows were wholly unprotected from the cattle, and the pavement wes not very wide, he had had but three panes of glass broken by the cattl e; y e t, accor di ng to the alarmists, not a market-day passes without some accident of the kind occurring, not only in Smith field-market itself, but also in the adjacent streets. The Commissioners admit in their Report, with re ference to the alleged deterioration in the flesh of the animals, caused by the treatment which they receive in driving them to Smithfield, and to the market it self, that the opinions expressed thereon were founded upon data too conjectural to be received with much reliance. The two gentlemen who have dissented from the Report made by their brother Commissioners, say that as far as that complaint is concerned, admit ting there is any ground for it, it will be obviated by the enlargement of the site of the market, and they settle the whole question by saying that such alleged deterioration is inconsistent with the fact so well known both as regards the provinces and foreign towns, that London holds a character preeminent as to the superiority of its butchers' meat. With regard to the alleged inconveniences of the present market, they consider they may be remedied by its enlarge ment or adoption of the plan proposed by Mr. Bun ning, and by a legislative enactment for regulating the hours of sheep and cattle arriving at and depart. ing from the market, by widening the avenues, &c. ; and such being the case, the existing inconveniencies of the market do not seem to them to justify a course so extreme and problematical as its removal to a dis tance, accompanied as that must be by a great and expensive disarrangement and dislocation of extensive commercial interests, connected directly or indirectly with the existing market. Such an expe!iment would also be likely to affect the regular, certain, and cheap supply of animal food, a question of vital im portance Duke and Mr. John Wood warmly recommends the adoption of the f the Market Improvement Committee, Cho dissent to a signed population b y Sir o f two Jamesmillions of persons. suggestions o CENSORIUS. but 1 must reserve my notice thereof for a founded on the plan Bunning; future l etter.

Here havothe tecerdetssAtt congresses been held, the most graveialevjutiksis_ se e come to, of alliance, of offen s i ve an d niilitaiptitom ments, of the putting down of this system of govern ment and the setting up of that, without England having been once consulted in the affair. There was a congress of kings and ministers, not exclusively German, at Bregenz, early in October, its which all the movements that we now see ' were planned azd pre-ordained. Yet not one word of these intentions or resolutions was communicated to the British Go vernment until, we believe, the other day. Such a slight was the more outrageous, since the chief of these resolutions regarded the settlerneot of the effeirs of Schleswig-Holstein, in which England bad taken a most active part, both in mediating cod in coerc ing, at least as far as moral coercion goes. It could not even be said that England showed a hostile spirit to these absolutist powers. For Lord Pal merston signed the London protocol, when even Austria hesitated to put its signature to so anti- German a document. Yet this sin real adherence to Russian policy on the part of England brought with it no return in the shape of either politeness or con sideration. And Count Nesselrode at Bregenz, and the Emperor Nicholas at 'Warsaw, proceeded to ordain in their own way, how not merely the Hessians but the Heleteinere, were to he coerced, without deignieg to commit England in the matter. We must say that the British Government, if not the British nation, de served more respect than this at the hands of Russia. We will not deny, however, that the British Govern ment has some reason for complaint agziinst id. russia for being so impolitic as to keep open the Schleswig sore, which has united so many powers against her, and at last given a handle for the united absolutisms of Russia end of Austria-to overwhelm her. The only excuse of Prussia lies in her real inability to settle the question unless Denmark could be persuaded to grsut concessions. It was the vital interest of Prussia during the last months to have settled it. And we firmly believe that if she did not do so it was from sheer inability to persuade the Holeteinsrs to submit, and in the impossibility for her to force them. Now, however, pressed by circumstences and by a million of armed foes, which necessitates in her the junction of prudence with valour, the Prussian Government, that is Radowitz himself, :advised—nay, insisted on the Stadtholderate withdrawing its troops from Schleswig. Lord Palmerston insisted on this the first. This his Lordship said, would be the fair fulfilment by Prussia of the fourth article of the treaty with Denmark. Accordiugly, in order to place itself in accord with England, as the inediatieg power, Prussia has insisted on the withdrawal of the troops of the Duchies behind the Eyder. And the Stadholderate has, we understand, consented to it. But how is Holstein to be subdued or pacified ? At Bregenz the absolutist alliance determined that this should be done_ by force; that the Frankfort Diet should at first attempt it; and that, if it failed, Rus sia would take the matter in ham). It was first, we believe, begged of Hanover to undertake the task, and send its army of 20,000 men into Holstein. But the King of Hanover was aware that his army would not execute such a mission. and that soldiers and po pulation would rise against him, were he to. attempt it. The Austrians and Bavarians therefore undertook it; and the armies .of these powers have not only marched through Ilansu to the occupation of Hesse, but have actually occupied Coburg, With the intention of senarchirg through Prussia into Holstein. The Austrians and Bavarians, how ever, very well know that Prussia will not, and can not allow them to pass. They will present; theme selves at the frontier, however, be refused passage, and then they will appeal to Russia to grant then' ' that materia, aid in the reduction cf Holstein which was agreed upon at Bregenz amongst the absolutists themselves, and formally threatened at Warsaw. Now Russia's mode of granting this aid in the reduction of Holstein is neither more nor less than marching an army of 150,000 men through Prussia, and even through Berlin ; whilst nn Austro-Bavarian army ad %macs from the south. .Will Prussia, can Pruskia, resist this double invasion ? The arguments of those who dissuaded the calling out the landwehr were, that if the landtrehr be called forth, the Prussians, as a military nation, will never suffer the march of the Russians through their territories ; and that the call ing out of the landwelzr would thus be tantamount to war: The landwehr has been called out, amidst - the . acclamations of all classes of the people. The march of the first corps from Berlin was accompanied by a burst of popular exultation, of w hick the Prince of Prussia received his share. The excitement is general. Still if the Prussians are exuberant in military spirit and indignant at the outrageous insolence of their foes, these foes are confident in their numbers. Tile Aus trians are brave, having at their hack the same Rus sians which enabled them to subdue Hungary. A conflie, therefore, may ensue—a conflict of fearful odds, and Prussia would be invaded by a million of foes, which it would require the spirit of the Great Frederick .to meet, and his military talent to baffle. Iv ae r oleon used to say, th a t if h e were E ng l and be would not allow a cinnon-slot to be fired in Europe without his permission. We believe that England, without being Napoleon, has still the power to forbid cannon-shots. We believe that it does lie in England's power to forbid the Emperor of Russia to march his hordes acmes Prussia under the pretext of reducing the Holsteiners, but really for the pur pose of crushing all constitutional liberalism or anti- Russianism in Germany. We believe that our English ffnister cotill settle the question of Holstein wittniut this huge and menacing march and conflict of armies,—first, by persuading the King of nen mark to offer fair conditions to the Holstainers, end then representing to them, not as a foe but as a friend, the jeopardy in which they are placing the entire German race, with whom, if not victorious, they inevitably fall into unmitigated thraldom. If the King of Denmark wit! make no concession, and grant no rights or conditions, then let him try to conquer Holstein with his forces. . If he cannot, let them grant him terms. The consequence of any other line of conduct with regard to Holstein mint be'either the annihilation of Prussia, or, thl awaken ing of a revolutionary war. Neither of these alter nativea ought ever to have loomed in the dietacce, or been amongst the possibilities of the time, had France and England done their duty. Why they have not done so, there is scarcely time to inquire. But if thsy do not now exert themselves, Na poleoti's prophecy will be fulfilled to the letter, and Europe will be either republican or Cossack. THE AWFUL COLLIERY EXPLOSION. LATEST PAR'T'ICULARS. DURHAM, TUESDAY.—A melancholy catastrophe oc curred yesterday at the Houghton Pit, near Newbottle, in this county, by an e xplosion of firedamp, whereby twenty-six men and boys were hurried into eternity. The pit is the property of the Earl of Durham, and is ventilated by means of two .:.hafts, an upcast and down cast one. Mr. Rutherford is the viewer, and the general condition of the mine was considered geed. At the time of the explosion there were 150 men and boys in. the pit, engaged in the various workings. The explo sion was sudden. A loud report was heard, which re verberated through all the workings, and was soon indi cated at " bank' (a term applied to the entrance of the shaft). The air courses were in many places completely destroyed, and the direction of the current changed. This occurred between five and six o'clock, but it was part eleven before it was possible to penetrate the work ings, when the noise of voices was heard in a direction about 400 yards from the bottom of the sht.fc, which clearly showed there were some survivors of the melan choly cceurrence. The men employed in the arduous and dangerous duty of exploration on learning this re doubled their exertions, nutwithetandin their compara tively exhausted strength, and atter many deeds of Ine roism end personal daring, they succeeded in reaching a patt of the mine where the atmospheric air circulated, and there .120 men sad boys were found alive, and res cued from a fate which had seemed inevitable. From the statement of one of these survivors it appears that the men were engaged at their work when they heard the noise, and they rushed simultaneously towards the shalt, but they had not proceeded far when they met with the chuke-damp, on entering which many of them fell, some to rise no more. On observing this those not eo tar in advance became stationary, or retreated for a few yards, where they found the air good. They soon discovered that they were hemmed in by a body of choke-damp, to pass through which would have been im possible; for any of them, on attempting to enter it but a few yards, were overcome, and would have fallen had they not hastily retreated. On consulting together it was considered the safest plan to remain whore they were, and trust to the exertions that would be made to reach them from the shaft by carry ing in the air; and they did so remain for between five sad six hours, until their delivery was effected. Before that time bad ex pired many a stout heart quailed in prospect of certain death. A dread solemnity pervaded the mind of every one, impenetrable darkness increased the agony of feeling, and the silence of this tomb of the living was only broken by wild ejaculations of despair, fervent prayers and supplicatious to the Almighty for deliverance, or at ii.tervals by signal shouts, intended to guide any exploring party to the sepulchral abode. It impossible to portray the condition of these poor men during this long and harfel period, or convey any ade quate conception of their joy and gratitude on being rescued from Euch extreme peril and restored to their anxious and mourning friend:, who gath - errd round the pit month, awaiting," eac h exhausted piney from 'the poiso n ous atmosphere of silence and retignation the return o of the workings. It is bad to relate, however, that twenty-six persons hed peps . most of them by attempting to get through the choke damp towards the shaft. Several were burnt. Some were found without heads, others without legs or artns ; portions of the same body were found in different and distant places, showing the violence cl the fire. It is impossible to tell with, certainty where the fire criginet ,, d, $o g 'Oil is th havoc made in its vicinity, slid the men v.urking near it were blown to a great distance. The principal por tion ,of the aufferera are relly•beye and waggon-urea, are cf
