" Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit whit h I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHRUMA' t'IC PILLS, I feel that I am bat re-forming a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. " About twenty years since i was first attacked by rile umatic gout In my hands and feet. I had previously been subjecte , l to every va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th :Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore. in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any rtssential relief, and my sufferings can be appr ec i a t e d on l y b y those wl to know some thing of this disease. " It was during one of those paroxy s m s , b e t ween twelve and thir, teen years ago, that I was recommended to t r y BLA IR ' S PILLS. ' I lost no time hi procuring a box, and before I h a d ta k en that quantity the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few d a y s I was in perfect health. "From that moment, whenever I feel any symptonut of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, a rhich to one is so valuable, that were it not that the days of ma; :lc hay ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain tc. that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any deg ree suf fered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS is towards its improvement. "I have recommended the Pills to many friends, an d tt in result has always been of the most gratifying character. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, "GARRET FOSTER GILL. " To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand." For every description of Gout and Rheumatism, Sciatica, 'P ic-dolo reux, &c., &c., BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMAIIC PILLS are a sovereign remedy, contain neither mercury, opium', or arcy other dangerous drug, require no care whatever in their use, and ter ra pidity of cure and complete safety have rot their equal in the world.

All Englishmen, and Londoners in particular, nay draw, we think, a satisfactory kind of moral from certain remarkable documents which we pub lished on Wednesday. The United States of America, like a more ancient republic, appears to be bent upon getting the greatest possible amount of information from their Ministers in foreign parts, and the " relations " of these gentlemen may be almost matched with those of the old Venetian Ambassadors for characteristic interest and exact ness. Not long ago the State Department of the American Government addressed circular inquiries to the representatives of the Union in foreign capi tals as to the cost of living at their respective sta tions. These questions were, of course, framed with a view to the p ro p er regu l a tion of diplomatic expenditure ; but the replies put on record in the correspondence to which we refer present a compa rative survey of national advantages so very intel ligible and amusing, that we think it will consist both with our own duty and the reader's gratifica tion, if we revive the subject for a little further re mark. It will be readily understood that the position of a foreign minister is peculiarly unfavourable to experiments in domestic economy, and it was the effect, perhaps, of these invariable conditions which appears to have impressed every American envoy with the not unnatural conviction that his own station must inevitably be the very dearest spot of the habitable globe. Still, the very universality of this impression enables us to deal with it, for, though every foreign minister may doubtless live at higher charges than any native resident, yet, as the ministers in every capital fare alike in this par ticular, the general expensiveness of their respec tive locations may be ascertained as easily from these returns as from those of any other class, the only difference being that the scale is somewhat higher throughout. From London, then, we find Mr. Abbot Lawrance writing that a house befitting the position of the American Minister would cost from 7001. to 9001. a-year, and that carriages and horses would require from 2251. to 2501. more. These are the only items which it was thought necessary to spe cify in the British return. On turning, however, to Paris, we observe that Mr. Rives, after enumerat ing very nearly the same charges in respect to house-rent and equipages, proceeds immediately to recapitulate certain other items of expenditure almost as serious as the former. Fuel, for a house hold of half-a-dozen persons and their servants, averages in Paris from 2501. to 3001 a-year—a fact not perhaps astonishing to those who can re collect what they have paid for a few days' firing at a Parisian hotel, but which will promptly sug gest to the untravelled reader a very sufficing explanation of the value of woods and forest in France. Be it remembered, too, that the country thus enormously taxed for one of the chief neces saries of life is within an hour or two's voyage of another country where the best coals may be had at less than 1/. per ton. Passing from fuel, Mr. Rives next reports the extraordinary price of eatables, and remarks, with the true em phasis of an American, that ham, which his coun trymen would probably be glad to send into France at 6d. or Bd. a-pound, is charged in Paris at Is. 6d. or 2s. Fowls, too, at Bs. 6d. a-couple are very properly recorded for the wonder of posterity, though on that point we have not much to boast of at home, for all the " poultry mania," to which the coming will testify, has not yet re sulted in bringing to London markets at less than ss. or 6s. a-pair chickens which are certainly raised in the country for less than half-a-crown. In " common groceries," indeed, the contrast would have been surprising, but Mr. Rives is content to allude to this charge upon French residence without , entering into particulars. From Vienna we get but few details, as Mr. M'Curdy does not yet "know much personally about the expenses incident to his residence." From St. Petersburgh Mr. Brown reports that the Russian capital "is emphatically and in every re spect an artificial city—artificially built and artifi cially sustained. It is dependent for all its supplies on distant regions ; the necessaries of life are ex orbitantly high, while the tastes and habits of the place are extravagant." Nevertheless, as Russia possesses some railway communication, and is in the way of getting more, St. Petersburgh, not withstanding this character, must be largely in ad vance of more ancient capitals. The description given of Madrid is in the highest degree instructive. " The great distance," writes Mr. B arr i nger, " o f this capital from the coast, the universal want of good internal communication, the barrenness of the immediate locality, the peculiar habits of the nation, their general prejudice against everything foreign, their indifference, and even content with the stationary condition of ,their country, have all had a most pernicious influence." Water, which is brought to the house-doors on men's shoulders, is exceedingly expensive ; wood, when it can be procured at all, is sold by the pound ; coal, oil, and other articles of daily consumption, are first carried over hundreds of miles on mules' backs, and then burdened with crushing duties at the very gate of the city whose wants they arrive to supply. As an example of the state of things, Mr. Barringer mentions that one of his carriages, which was brought for 121. from New York to Cadiz, cost 721. in coming from Cadiz to Madrid. It is amusing to observe how closely the metropolis of Turkey corresponds in these respects with the me tropolis of Spain. The same total want of internal communications, the same uncertainty of supplies, and the same extravagance of prices are reported from Constantinople as were returned from Madrid, and either account would nearly serve for a description of Burmah or Affghanistan. Civilized capitals have at least this advantage, that their re sources are known and unfailing at a current rate of charge ; but at Madrid, no less than at Constan tinople, the latitudes of which are politically as well as geographically the same, no supplies can be reckoned upon•with certainty at any price at all. We have not yet exhausted the list before us, but we have probably said enough to make Lon doners tolerably content with their lot. To grum ble is not only an Englishman's privilege, but, so longas obvious improvements are wilfullyneglected, his duty too. Nevertheless, we may think more comfortably even of our sewers and our water-rates ---of our narrow streets and our national " embel lishments," when we compare our institutions with those of other capitals. .Free trade has already ac complished for us what Sir Robert Peel predicted, in making London the cheapest metropolis in Eu rope. The tastes and habits of fashionable society i still impose heavy charges upon such residents as foreign ministers ; but even these visitors are ex empted from all those domestic and daily taxes which perversity or ignorance maintain elsewhere. All the necessaries of life are brought to our doors, both from foreign and home markets, ,at a price really regulated by the expense of production, I and increased on l y b y the very cheapest cost of I transport. Bread, meat, butter, poultry, eggs, sugar, salt, fuel, and water are cheaper here then in any other European capital ; and, if the expenses of foreign ambassadors are not propor tionably diminished, that is because such charges in reality constitute only a small portion of their expenditure. We may learn to value our own clothes -markets by hearing that in Holland—that land of thrift and economy" every article is dear, but clothing particularly. so ;" and though, to be sure, it seems hard just now to say even a syllable for London weather, we may console ourselves by reflecting on what Mr. Bayard reportsfrom Brussels, that though in that capital " it rains, more or less, every day for 240 days out of the 365," there are few side pavements to serve as causeways in the deluge. Altogther, then, we have fair reason for self-gratulation. We cannot help our atmosphere, or entirely neutralize the natural condition of a population of 2,250,000 ; but we can take care that no restrictions are placed upon that trade which brings the produce of the country to the service of the town, and we can freely apply our vast re sources well-considered of improvement. —,-Times. ital and i ngenu i ty to purposes of LONDON. It is pretty clear, we think, from the nbserva dons which we publi s h e d on Saturday, that not withstanding the inveterate delusion about " un taxed foreigners," Londo n , f or peop l e w i t h the habits of Englishmen, is the cheapest capital in Europe. Men who divide their leisure hours be tween cafés and thea,tces—who are content to warm ..thernsPlves.at publiftbove in winter, and rent a garden chair by the evening in summer—may no doubt find greater accommodation in Paris. In outdoor luxuries the French excel us, but for per sons who value comfort and independence, and who wish, as all Englishmen do, to keep a house of some sort, whether great or small, there is no capital city so cheap as our own metropolis. All the necessa ries of ljfe are procurable at charges which, if still above the means of indigence, are at any rate in no case augmented by gratuitous legislation. We get bread, so Protectionists declare, at a less price than it costs to grow the corn, and at any rate we get it at about half the price of former days. We get meat and other provisions as cheap as they can be made by the competition of Europe. We get sugar and other tropical productions at charges within reach of the poorest mechanic ; a good fire may be kept for 15d. a-week, and if the water supply is not what it should be, it is at least better than in any other city of nearly the same extent. Neverthe less, London is stigmatised as an unhealthy plaCe to live in ; and how, then, under these favourable conditions of life, is such an imput a ti on to b e ac counted for ? W e think the matter can 'be made tolerably plain, and with some advantage to boot. In the first place, the unhealthiness of London is partial—partial not to quarters, but to classes. Professional men, tradesnien, clerks, mechanics, or artisans, with incomes of wages sufficient to pro cure daily comforts--and nowhere can such com forts be procured more cheaply—live as long and as heartily in London as in any part of England ; in fact, some of the finest specimens of the longevity have been furnished by citizens born and buried within sound of Bow Bells. No person who has over visited a really unwholsome town and marked the appearance of the population could walk from Temple-bar to the Bank, and from the Bank to the Docks, without assuring himself, from the coun tenances and carriages of the passers-by that the city must be essentially healthy. The real truth is not that the well-to-do classes suffer from London residence, but that death's doings among the very poor and miserably swell the gross mortality of the metropolis to its higher average. If certain locali ties which the officer of health could promptly enu merate were set aside for returns of their own, the remainder of the town would probably bear a fair comparison with most English boroughs. In the next place—as follows, indeed, from what we have said already—the actual noxiousness of London atmosphere is not natural, but artificial. Such as it is, it is wholly ~ our own making, and waits for' our own remo ~, !. There is nothing in the soil, or the air, or the Water of our metropoli tan stream, which should be otherwise than con ducive to the health of our population. Thames water unpolluted is as good as water need be, and if any person desires to know what soil we stand upon he has only to walk along the new excava -1 tions between St. Paul's and Cannon-street, where he will see the finest gravel in the kingdom. No doubt our atmosphere would bear some purification, but smoke is already described as an abatable "nuisance," and against any disadvantage in this respect we may set the notorious accessibility of means to counterbalance it. Wholesome food and medical aid are procurable with far more certainty here than in the country. It is quite a mistake to imagine that the virulence of dis ease is confined wholly or even principally to places crowded with habitations. The worst outbreaks of fever are seen in roadside villages, where there are hundreds of yards perhaps between the houses, but where the true elements of pestilence--- undra and unventilated rooms —are more conspicuous than in any city quarters. In town we have at least the vigilance of able officers to a ss ist us in 1 abating these sources of evil, ined dwellings in the hard-worked and ill-paid union , there is no control from authority, and no hope but whereas in the country 15 miles off. The obvious moral of these considerations• London as healthy, comparatively is that nothing but our own resolution ' is . wanting to make doctor Some is cheap. We cannot, of cou rse - - the identi cale create . air of the Brighton Downs Cheapside any more than vely speaking, as it over the chimneys of cheap as it is in Wales, or pit's mouth ; but exactly coal we_ can . g et . mutton as as it is sold at the as we have brought down to 7d. the loaf instead of is , fuel from twice the price to 17s. a ton, and bread streets into habitations not inf . con sidered, to country houses. so s : we may turn . our inferior, all things .tion which must be first attended t e e n tene ments among the poorer classe s , ments of the indigent should be substituted othae wretched, ill-drained, comfortitleithhaen.9dhioce.ofstsly lodging houses on the most approved • • principles of salubrity and economy. We should not be inclined, for t e i lr tu ta t e ecdor or this purpose, to extend the present limits of the l arge enough, in all con science, olis al . rea L d o y n ; do i n i nde s ed, it is not one of our smallest inconveniences that h a l f everybody's friends live at least three miles off.

If reforms like these could be carried into execution, if the long-pending drainage ( of the metropolis could be effectively consummated, and the water supply put on a proper footing, we are perfectly persuaded that London would i no longer be reputed un healthy. Nor is thete any one of these measures which is beyond the scope of very moderate enter prise. Nothing impedes the water supply but the cupidity of the great companies ; nothing stops the drainage but an imperfect apprehension of the means required ; and nothing, we fear, but indiffe rence stops improved building at an '. We have already proved the truth of these propositions by actual experiment. }laths and wa.shouses answer every one of the pu oses predicted even beyond expectation, and mod 1 lodging-houses h ave b een erected and occupied just sufficient numbers to show that they may be increased to any required extent without fear-o4failure. The poor, however, cannot act for themselves. They have neither the means nor the knowledge, and the obligation must necessarily be discharged by others. But as others and all will reap the common benefit of a purified atmosphere and a contented population, it is surely not too much to ask for active co-operation in a work of rem unerative charity, which, if it d oes no t exactly begin at home, will most infallibly end there.—Times. • - , 4 1 N ARRO W ESCAPE.- 1 1 wit week Mr. Spencer, of Wood croft, near Peterboro',' and Mr. Pratt, of Greatford, were proceeding in a d-eart from Helpstone to Maxey.

An alarm of fire on board the Henry Duncan, timber ship, lying off the Victualling-yard, was reported to the authorities early this morning, but no assistance was sent as the cause of alarm was speedily subdued. In consequence of the scarcity of coals in the port, the Bombay, Austrian Lloyd's steamer, is being sup plied from the Government stores, for which purpose she is now alongside the hulk in Hamoaze.

The African and Monkey steam-vessels are under orders to accompany her. Captain Watson returned from leave to-day, hav ing been absent since Tuesday last, and proceeds round to Chatham in the Imperieuse. Brevet-Major Strans ham, Lieutenant Tomlin, two sergeants, two corporals, one drummer, and 46 privates of the Woolwich Division of Royal Marines, who have been draughted, and under orders for the last fortnight for service in the Impdrieuse, are to embark in her at Woolwich Dockyard early on Monday morning. One bombardier and twelve gunners of the Royal Marine Artillery will embark at the-same time from the Hobe receiving-ship, having been accommodated on board that vessel since they came round from Portsmouth. The Meg era steam-frigate, Commander John 0. Johnson, had her crew paid down to-day at the pay office in the dockyard, and the one-half of the . men ob tained leave until B'clock p.m. on Wednesday next. She is still in dock, but will soon be ready for sea. SHEERNESS, JAN. 9. The sloop Rattlesnake, 8, Commander Henry Trol lope.—Lieutenant John Paulet Miller (13th July, 1850), took up his commission yesterday, and obtained the Ad miral's leave for four days. In consequence of some de fects being detected about the bows of this vessel in the range of the hawso timbers several shifts of plank from forward on both bows have been taken out for the pur pose of putting in new timbers, and making good the said defects. This will not in the least retard the un docking of this vessel at the time appointed. Captain Patsy, of the screw steam-frigate Amphion, of 34 guns, returned from leave yesterday, and rejoined his ship. Up to the present time only one able seaman and about six ordinary have joined this ship. Her present muster on board are her officers, marines, engineers, and stokers—these certainly form the greater portion of her complement ; her deficiency is, therefore, among the blue jackets only. The paddle-wheel steam-sloop Barracouta, 6 guns, Commander George Parker, is at present about 80 sea men short. It is expected that an officer from this ship, and also one from her Majesty's frigate Amphion, will be shortly sent to the western ports to obtain volunteers for their respective ships. The frigate Melampus, 42 guns, arrived here yester day, from Chatham, in tow of the steam-tug African, J. Gill, Acting-Master, and the steam-tug Adder, J. Mun chen, Acting-Master, assisted by seamen riggers from Chatham yard. On the Melampus being berthed at the docking buoy, the Adder returned to Chatham with the seamen riggers. At tide time the Melampus was taken into the fitting basin, and the Hercules, of London, having discharged her masts and spars, for Government use, was put out of the basin, and left immediately for London in tow of the steam-tug Victory. The paddle-wheel steam-frigate Cyclops, 6 guns, and 320-horse power, chief engineer Mr William Chilcott, will be taken into the fitting basin to-morrow, prepara tory to her being docked for a survey on her hull. The line-of-battle ship Hawke, of 72 guns, now in the fitting basin, is com pl e t e d as an advanced ship, and will be put out of the basin on Monday next, and berthed at her harbour moorings. Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, in command of the Agamemnon, of 91 guns, and 500-horse power, mustered yesterday the officers and crows of the following ships in commission at this port, viz. :—the Agamemnon ; Monarch, 84, guard-ship in o r di nar y, C ap t a i n Ch ar l es Hope ; Amphion, screw steam-frigate, of 34 guns, Cap tain Charles G.

Dragon, 6, steam-frigate, has nearly completed new coppering, and her repairs are being expedited in the north dock. Medea, 6, steam-sloop, Commander J. C. Bailey, will come out of dock on Monday, and will soon be ready to go out of harbour. The artisans are busy throughout the dockyard in bringing forward for service the Duke of Wellington, 130, Gladiator, Heck, Gorgon, Conflict steam-vessels. Phaeton, 50, Captain Elliot, is to be paid off at Sheer ness, at which port she was commissioned and fitted out. The Magdalena West India mail packet, which made Southampton yesterday, brings the melancholy news of 16 officers and 60 of the crew of her Majesty's ship Dauntless, screw, 28, Captain Halsted, having been car ried off by yellow fever. The friends of those on board look anxiously for the official announcement of the names of the victims. The restoration of Mr. Engledue, the manager of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's flotilla at Southampton, to his former rank in the Royal Navy, is the theme of general conversation in naval circles at this port. All praise the act of restoration, as Lieutenant Engledue stands high in the estimation of all practical naval officers who know his merits ; but all are puzzled to which • Board of Admiralty —the Northum berland or the Graham—to award the credit of having done him this tardy justice.

The appointment of one serjeant and one bombardier to each of the 96 companies composing this regiment took place at Woolwich on the Ist inst., and also 96 corporals promoted to the rank of serjeants, 96 bom bardiers to the rank of corporals, 192 acting-bombardiers to be full bombardiers, and 192 gunners to be acting bombardiers. 2D BATTALION IST OR ROYAL REGIMENT.—A corms- pondent writes as follows :—"A deputation of the non commissioned officers and soldiers of the 2d battalion Ist or ''the Royal' Regiment, who belong to the Kirk of Scotland, waited on the Rev. W. Magill, of Cork, on the 4th instant, and presented him with two elegantly bound Bibles, as a testimonial of their esteem and grati tude. During their stay in Cork these excellent men contributed largely to support the Connaught Mission. Wa have never met a class of men superior to them in in telligence and good conduct. They leave immediately for the Mediterranean, under the command of Lieutenant- Colonel Bell, than whom a better man or a braver sol dier never commanded a regiment. The conduct of this distinguished corps in Cork has won golden opinions from all classes." THE 3D LIGHT DRAGOONS. The Governor-General of India having approved of e embarkation of this regiment on its return home, after 15 years and G months' service in the East Indies, the corps was to move down from Wuzeerabad, in ,the Bengal presidency, and embark at Calcutta on the Ist of January, 1853. The Commander-in-Chief in India issued the follow ing general order, previous to the embarkation of the regiment for England : " Head-quarters, Si m l a, N ov. 2 2 , 1852. "Her Majesty's 3d Regiment of Light Dragoons are _Ander orders to return to Europe, after discharging an honourable service of fifteen years' duration in India. " In this term of service are comprised the advance into Affghanistan in 1842, and the great battles of the •Sutlej and Punjab campaigns of 1845-6 and 1848-9. "Throughout these successive arduous operations the conduct of the corps has been conspicuous for gallantry and soldierlike steadiness ; and its contribution to the general result has been repeatedly and signally noticed in official dispatches commemorative of victory. The Commander-in-Chief hopes that this further re cognition of services well performed may not prove un acceptable to the corps on the eve of departure, coming, as it does, from one whose fortune it has been, on vari ous occasions, to see its standards borne forward in a like gallant spirit on fields of note in Europe. "The satisfaction which the Commander-in-Chief feels in publicly recording these facts is much enhanced by his being able to add that in the present, as in former clays, the distinguished service in the field of her Majesty's 3d Light Dragoons has been combined with exemplary conduct in quarters. The unusual good health of the corps during a series of years may be con sidered a further proof of the zeal and attention of the regimental authorities and of the orderly disposition of the men. "The Commander-in-Chief cannot suffer the 3d Light Dragoons to leave his command without expressinn. to Colonel White an d Li eu t enant -C o l onel Yerbury, under whose superior and immediate command the regiment has repeatedly distinguished itself, and to the officers and men generally, his regret at losing their services, and his conviction that they will earn fresh honours for themselves as often as the opportunity is afforded. "In further expressing an earnest hope for their pros perous passage to their native country, Sir William Gomm begs to assure the whole corps that he will always feel a lively interest in their welfare." It is not intended to send out another cavalry regi ment from England to India at present to take the place of the 3d Light Dragoons, but it is probable the 12th Lancers will proceed from the Cape of Good Hope for - service in India on the termination of the Caffre war. The next cavalry regiment for return from India is the 15th Light Dragoons (Hussars), that corps having em barked for foreign service in June, 1839, or upwards of 13 years ago. CIRCULAR RELATIVE TO BARRACK LIBRARIES. The following circular has been issued for the guidance of commanding officers and paymasters of regiments : "The question of allowing officers to participate in the advantages afforded by the barrack libraries haVing been brought under my consideration, I have much sa tisfaction in acquainting you, with reference to the cir cular from this department of the Gth of May, 1845, that the General Commanding-in-Chief has concurred with me in the propriety of extending to officers of the army the privilege which has hitherto been withheld from them in this respect. " These institutions were originally established for the sole use of non-commissioned officers and soldiers, and I should have hesitated, therefore, to, entertain this pro position, had I considered it would interfere with the means of amusement and instruction specially designed for them. during their leisure hours ; but I feel confident that, with the great additions that have been made of late years to the contents of the libraries, and under proper regulations, the extension of the privilege proposed to officers may prove advantageous by extending the interest taken in, and the utility of these establishments, without inconveniently or injuriously interfering with the use the soldiers make of them at present. "It will be necessary, however, to guard against such a possibility arising out of the unnecessary detention of books by officers, and I have to request that .special instructions may be issued to the officers commanding the several barrack library stations within your com mand, that the books shall be delivered out to officers and men without partiality, and in the strict order in which they are applied for, and that you will take means effectually to prevent any officer detaining books beyond the prescribed period ; and, further to enforce this rule, that a proportionate penalty to that imposed on soldiers be enforced from officers in any case of detention of books beyond the times allowed by the rules of the library ; and, should any officer so far abuse the advantage now afforded to him as to incur this penalty three times in any quarter, he shall be deprived of the use of the library. " The rate of payment to be made by officers , who may become subscrib er s t o th e lib rary, w i ll b e one day's pay of their rank per annum, and the same should be paid to the paymaster of the regiment in quarterly sums, avoid ing fractions of a penny, and credited in his accounts in the same manner as the subscriptions of soldiers, under the directions contained in article 398 of the explanatory directions of July 1, 1848, but a nominal list of the offi cers subscribing should he annexed to form 212, showing the rates payablp by each. " I have much pleasure in adding, that in the begin ning of next year a further supply of books will be issued for the use of military libraries.—l have, &c., W. " To the offi cer commanding - " Regiment." BERESFORD. ACCIDENT ON THE MIDLAND RAILWAY.—On Friday night an accident of a very alarming nature occurred about last two-and-a-half miles from Bristol, on the Bristol and Gloucester portion of the Midland Counties Railway, and which produced the utmost consternation throughout the surrounding neighbourhood, but was fortunately unattended by fatal results. The following may be depended on as correct particulars of the acci dent, which was one of an unusual character, viz., the explosion of the locomotive engine boiler. It appears that a powerful engine, No. 363, was employed in drawing the up goods train, which has to start from the terminus at Temple Meads, Bristol, at eight o'clock p.m., and was upon this occasion unusually light, carry ing but little more than seventy tons of goods and a' few empty pickle trucks. The train started punctually and the engine, No. 363, was preceded by another loco motive, No. 360. Soon after leaving Bristol there is an incline, on commencing the ascent of which the rails wore found to be so slippery and greasy that the wheels would not bite sufficiently to enable the train to progress, and after a short time the train came to a standstill, upon which the engine -driver, who is stated to be a most care ful man, signalled the guards to put on the breaks in order to prevent the train from running back into the station. This had scarcely been done when the boiler of the engine No. 363 exploded with terrific violence, shattering everything connected with it to atoms, and frightening the cottagers, &c., of the surround ing neighbourhood, who describe it as having been accompanied by a noise like thunder, and shaking the cottages in such a manner as to induce them to imagine it the shock of an earthquake. Indeed, so violent was the force of the explosion that large pieces of brass and iron belonging to the engine were hurled to a great distance, and picked up in the surrounding fields. In a miraculous way the engineer, Henry Barnes, escap e d altogether without i n j ury , an d t h e stoker received only a few contusions, none of which are lik e l y to prove of a dangerous Character. Both th e men owe their escape with their lives to their carefulness and strict attention to their duty. According to thereccioulnirpedanyt'os regulations the drivers of good engines are elm timber take with them upon their tenders piece called " sprigs," with which, when th s e of rails are in a greasy state, and impediments to progress take place, they assist the breaks by forcing the sprags" between the tender wheels and checking any tendency to back ward revolution. Upon the oc sion in question, on find ing the train at a standstill, they each seized a (c sprag y, and jumped off the engine for this purpose, and they had but just get alongside the tender when the explosion g of in t e he th b o o y il m er u t s o t o h k a p v Had they remained on the en leabeeeen blown to pieces, and both lost their lives. su p er intendent states that h e is alto he that i gdeetfiliceiernueny of t ableo account for th e exp l os i on, as h e t hi n k s it impossibl e t could ha ve b een occas i one d b y an y water in the boiler, there having been no delay in despatching the train, and consequently there had been no wasteful expenditure of steam, and he can not either account for any defect in the boiler, as it had very re cen tl y undergone a thorough examination an d complete repair.

The local correspondent of the Evening Post says : There will be no contest in Cavan. Up to the present moment, at least, notwithstanding the stout assertion of a Dublin morning journal, there is no bond fid e can di. date in the field. Mr. Burrowes, the only gentlemen who would have the shadow of a chance against Sir John Young, has declined being a party to raising a religious cry in the now peaceful oounty of Cavan. Mr. Humphreys has also declined the contest. Other gen tlemen have been applied to in vain. The moderate Conservatives, the leading Liberal interests, and the Catholic clergy, almost to a man, are determined to support Sir John Young. CARLOW. In Carlow the rival candidates, Mr. Sadleir and Mr. John Alexander, are actively proceeding with their can vass. The success of Mr. Sadleir is counted_ upon as certain by his friends. No day has even yet been fixed for the election, in consequence of the continued absence of the High Sheriff, Sir Clement Wolsey, Bart. The local Tory journal, the Carlow%&Wiwi, of this day, says—`• Sir Clement Wolsey has, we regret to learn, sustained a dislocation of his shoulder by a fall, and, in consequence, was unable to leave London to hold the election for this borough." The same• _journal expresses its gratification that the absence of the .sheriff prevented the Tory party from being taken by " Lim-prise." The election cannot now be held until eight days after the delivery of the writ to the sheriff. The came is a very novel one, and the Liberal party are much discontented at the delay. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE- PROPOSED RAILWAYS IN AND NEAR LONDON.—It ap pears from a compilation by Mr. W. R. Botham, of the London and North-Western Railway, that 24 companies have deposited their plans, &c., at the Private Bill office, and intend to apply to Parliament for power to make 24 new lines of railway within a circle of 20 miles round London. Nine of the proposed railways are within a circle of five miles from the General Post-office, and 10 are situated outside that circle, and within a circle of 10 miles. The existence of these new schemes is attributed to the success attending the East and West India Dock and Birmingham Junction Railway (North London Railway) ; the re -erection of the Crystal Palace at Sydenham, and the increasing traffic in the streets of the metropolis. The proposed railways referred to are the Albert Dock and Railway, capital 500,000/. ; the Barnet and Willesden Railway, 220,000/. ; Bayswater and Battle-bridge Junction ; Eastern Counties Woolwich Extension ; Dartford and Farningham ; Eastern Coun ties branch from Stratford to Woodford and Lough ton, 100,000/. ; Great Northern branch to St. Al ban's ; Great Western Junction with the North and South-Western Junction line ; Great Western and City Junction from the Paddington station to the North London Railway at Kentish-town, 275,000/. ; City ter minus and stations (northern section), 600,000/. ; Lon don, Brighton, and South Coast, Crystal Palace branch; London and Mid-Western from Oxford to the South- Western at Brentford, and to the London and North• Western at Willesden, 1,000,000/. ; London and North• Western branch, from Watford to St. Alban's and Amersham ; London and Westminster, along the Thames, 600,000/. ; Mid-Kent from Deptford to Farn borough, 100,000/. ; North and South-Western Junction branch to Hammersmith, 16,000/. ; North and South- Western, Hampstead and City Junction, 250,000/. ; Norwood, Streatham, and Wandsworth ; South-Eastern extentions to the North Kent and the Thames ; South- Eastern branch, through Lewisham to Croydon and Bromley ; Staines, Woking, and Woking Junction, 300,000/. ; West-end of London and Crystal Palace, from the South-Western at Battersea to the Crystal Palace and the Norwood station, 386,0001. ; Woodford from the East and West India Dock line at Hackney to Woodford, 120,000/. ; Wimbledon and Croydon, 45,500/. These schemes would at least involve an aggregate capi tal of 6,000,000/., together with the usual borrowing powers of one-third, or 2,000,000/., making 8,000,000/. ; but it is probable that Parliament will not sanction schemes within the limits mentioned involving more than half that amount. ABORTIVE RAILWAY SCHEMES.—Of the 157 railway companies that lodged plans and sections in November, 30 are not able to proceed this session in consequence of not having also lodged the necessary deposits with the Accountant-General, and other causes. These 30 are as follow :—Albert Dock and Railway ; Ayr, Maybole, and Girvan ; Barnet and Willesden ; Birkenhead Dock Branch ; Birkenhead (Great Western), Corris, Machynl leth, Aberdovery, and Towyn ; Dorchester and Exeter (Coast Extension) ; East and West Surrey Union ; Glas gow Earlwood, Busby, an d E ag l esham ; Hawick and Carlisle ; Inverleithen and Peebles ; Jedburgh ; King road Harbour ; Lewes, Uckfield, and Tonbridge Wells ; Mid-Kent ; Newport, Aberga.venny, and Hereford (Ex tension to Swansea) ; North and South Wales ; Norwood, Streatham, and Wanstead ; Rugby, Southam, and Ban bury ; St. George's Harbour and Railway ; South Derby shire ; South Midlands Union ; South and West Lon don ; Shrewsbury and Aberystwith ; Staffordshire, Mid land, and Mineral • Stockton and Hartlepool ( Haswell Branch) ; Sunderland and Leeds Northern Junction ; Torquay and South Devon ; Vale of Clwyd ; Yarmouth and Lowestoft. YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND.----It appears that this company had been rated to the poor some time ago at 2251. a-mile in respect of a part of the East and West Yorkshire Railway, and at 2001. a-mile in respect of the Harrowgate branch. Having appealed against this charge, the magistrates, in petty sessions, reduced the amount to 1251. p er mile. The company not being sa tisfied with this reduction appealed to the quarter ses sions at Knaresborough ; an examiner was appointed to investigate the accounts, and on his report the rateable value on the East and W e st Yorkshire line was fixed on _ _ Monday last at 40/, per mile, and on the Harrowgate line at 58/, per mile.

DISTRESSING CASE OF DROWNING. —Among the pas sengers on board the Star, Gravesend steamer, which left Blackwall at half-past twelve on Saturday, was a young man accompanied by his sister, who had seated themselves near the fore gangway on the starboard side, and appeared to pass their time pleasantly in conversa tion, until the steamer got into Long Reach, and here, as her course was changed, the paddle-box partly shut out from view a large ship towing down the river, and. the Young man not being able to see what he desired, leaned over the bulwark ; while in this p os iti on , an d di recting the att ent i on of his sister by pointing at the ship, he fell overboard, and never rose again above water. The captain immediately stopped the steamer, o had the boat lowered, and life-buoys thrown overboard, and did all in his power, but it was of no avail, poor re luctantly had to pursue his voyage.
