The statement made yesterday by Lord John Russell in the House of Commons with reference to the negotia tions in the East has not only added nothing to what was already known of these transactions, but it has les sened our confidence on two points which were already supposed to be concluded. Thus it appears that the assent of the Porte has not yet been received to ‘ the note adopted by the conference at Vienna; and we are left to infer, from the too expressive silence of the minister when questioned on the point, that this note contains no explicit stipulation for the evacuation of the principali ties, although, by the declaration of the British Govern ment in both houses, the immediate and entire evacuation of those territories is an indispensable condition of the termination of this dispute. Lord John laid much less stress than he might have done on the solemn assurances given.by the Emperor Nicholas and his ministers before Prince Menschikoff had reached Constantinople ; and he might have contrasted these promises with the mean and underhand attempt of the Russian envoy to conceal his real demands from the English and French ambassadors —a circumstance which provedin itself the dishonest and clandestine nature of his mission. But in all that has fallen from Lord J. Russell on this subject we, remark a strange inconsistency between the force with which he dwells on " the integrity and independence of the Otto man Empire"—as if that cabalistic expression had power to heal the sick and raise the decd—and the feeble means used to effect this object. To juke from the Ministerial statement of last night, it migit be supposed that the Emperor of Russia has obtained all that he thought fit to ask, and that the conference )f Vienna has only been engaged in framing the Russian demands in more ac ceptable language. The effect cf this tame and meagre declaration to the house was vers"painful and depressing, and we are satisfied that it coureyed a very imperfect notion of the course of _policy the Government has really pursued. Tlfirhave carried the silenfikstem to excess, and the result is an imputation that they are afraid to speak. But the subsequent portion of the de bate in some degree retrieved the unfortunate effect of Lord John Russell's semi-revelations, which were unre- ZULU 3E :AFIRS, ST.

We profess to place mach less reliance than Lord John Russell does on "the integrity and inde pendence of the Ottoman Empire ;' for those are words of very questionable meaning when applied to a State which has two important provinces occupied at this mo ment by a foreign army, and which cannot hope to rid itself of that enemy without foreign support. In reality, the independence of Turkey has sufered quite as much from such foreign support as from foreign aggression. The treaty of Unkiar 'Skelessi was a treaty of amity and support, to enable Russia to defend the Sultan against Mehemet Ali. The treaty of July, 1840, was a treaty of amity and support, to enable the Porte to recover Syria and dictate terms to Egypt. But these celebrated conventions were just as fatal to the inde pendence of Turkey as the worst treaty ever dictated to her by a successful enemy, since they demonstrated that she had no longer the power to subdue her own vassal or to protect her own capital without foreign aid. Lord Palmerston asserts that Turkey has made amazing progress in the last 30 years, and that her army, navy, administration, and principles of government are greatly strengthened and improved. How comes it, then, that with all this improvement, and with Egypt to boot (which has done its duty nobly in this crisis), the Porte is unquestionably less able to resist extortionate demands than it was 25 years ago ? From 1825 to 1827 it re sisted the efforts of all the Christian Powers in favour of the Greeks and fought the battle of Navarino ; in 1828 it sustained two campaigns against the Russians, un aided. Does any one suppose that tae Porte, unsup ported by any European power, is capable of similar efforts now ? If she be, the interposition of foreign di plomacy is, to say the least, rsuperfluaus, and the best proof she can give tof her independence is to turn the Russians out of the country. Unhappily this is more than she can accomplish, and what we now term her " independence " means no more than that she is prevented by foreign aid from falling into absolute dependence on a single Power. So far we agree with Mr. Cobden, that the only real independence is that which a nation gives and perpetuates to itself. It is Mr. Cobden's strange humour, however, to mix the political opinions of an adherent of M. Kossuth with the practical views of a Russian agent, and,' while he inflames the popular prejudices against Russian despotism, to lend his aid to the substantial ends of Russian ascendancy. As a Freetrader, he advocates a close connexion with the most restrictive State in Europe, to be purchased by the sacrifice of the freest of all our customers ; and, as an advocate for the repeal of the Navigation Laws, he argues that in consequence of that measure we are now incapable of carrying on any species of maritime warfare without absolute ruin to the English mercantile flag. Professing an unqualifying faith in the policy of peace, he finds II o words of censure for an act of invasion which, if persisted in or imitated, must become the signal of generalwar ; and at the very moment when it, is. most. important for 0 - Government of this country to hold a firm attitude abroad, he em ploys every argument he can invent to weaken our national position and to give increased confidence to our opponents. Fortunately, this speech brought down upon its author the swift and severe chastisement which Lord Palmerston inflicted in the most brilliant address of the debate. We know not how our democratic contemporaries reconcile the admiration they profess for Lord Palmerston with their adherence to the political creed of Mr. Cobden ; but, on a question of deep importance to the honour and character of the nation, we are confident that the blindest popular instinct would suffice to win over Mr. Cobden's followers to a more generous and spirited course of ac tion. The determination of this country to throw its weight and to exert its power on the side of legal rights, when they are threatened, is one of the principal securi ties of the general peace, and we can conceive nothing more fatal to that cause than the belief that England had been disarmed and emasculated. Lord Palmerston's an swer, received with vociferous and enthusiastic cheering by both sides of the House of Commons, was a conclusive retort on these unpatriotic sentiments, and the complete isolation in which the persons professing them are placed, by the extreme Liberals, by the Ministerial party, and by the Opposition, is the best proof that they are repudiated by the people of England. Inanimate as was the tone of Lord John Russell, his colleague of the Home Department gave the debate a more pungent and telling character, and, as the organ of the Government on this occasion, Lord Palmerston showed no disposition to lower the suitable language of a minister of the Crown. To a power which has proved itself to be cap able of the deceits practised by Russia in this tran sa tion terms of implicit confidence are misplaced ; and ! if we are to succeed—as we trust we shall —in defeag her designs, rejecting her demands , and ca using her forces to retire, it must be by a strong resolution to up hold the common interests of Europe. This question, as Mr. Cobden observed, is by no means over, and we in av have to deal with it in various for ms for many years to come. But, if the opinion and the interests of the land are still to be felt in the East, we may be suresour r we must be prepared to act with as much energy a antagonists, and, above all, to give full effect to every assurance of support held out in the name of the British Government.

It is perfectly harmless in its application and innoxious in itself. The high price at which it has hitherto been sold has prevented its general use ; to obviate this obstacle to its universal application as a disinfecting and purifying agent, the present manufacturer, who was many years with Sir W. Burnett's Company, has arranged to supply the public with concen trated Chloride of Zinc in its greatest purity and at the lowest price. It is sold by all Chemists and Shipping Agents in the United King dom, in Imperial Quart Bottles at 2s. 6d. each, and in larger vessels at 6s. per Gallon.

The Sultan had not then been outraged by a perfidious foe, the revenues of his provinces publicly es treated, and his viceroys prohibited from rendering him the customary acts of allegiance. If without noticing these intolerable wrongs, or stipulating in any way for their reparation, the Ministers of the Sultan shall advise their master to succumb to the invader by accepting this much-vaunted note recommended by the Four Powers, it will only be because they have learned to despair of that support on which they were taught to rely by the representatives of England and of France. To use the words of Mr. Layard, Russia will have ac complished all she wanted, and accomplished it in the way most injurious to Turkey and most humiliating to Europe. Had Turkey yielded to the diplomatic menaces of Prince Menschikoff, the Divan and the Foreign Em bassies at Constantinople and some few wealthy and in telligent persons, would have known of her submission, and deplored the hardships incident to her anomalous state. But in the eyes of the mass of her people, the diadem of her Sovereign would not have been publicly trampled in the dust ; her resources would not have been squandered in gigantic preparations for armed defence ; and, above all, the confidence, faith, and cour age of the nation would not have been fanned into flame and then irremediably quenched. Infinitely better for Turkey, infinitely more honourable for us, would it have been had she been told honestly and frankly that she must fight unaided, or submit betimes to the overpower ing and over-reaching might of Russia. As it is, all that our Ministers are prepared to tell Parliament and the public amounts to this, that having tried to out bluster the Muscovite he laughed in their face, and told them he did not believe they were in earnest ; where upon they quietly turned round and bid Turkey get out of the scrape as best she may. Lord John Russell told the House of Commons, it is true, that the evacuation of the Principalities must be considered essential to any final settlement ; and Mr. Layard, as well as other speakers, appeared to share in his lordship's confident anticipation that that event would not be long delayed. For ourselves we confess our ina bility to see the grounds of such sanguine expectations, But, assuming the accuracy of the prognostics adverted to, the serious question still remains—What will the effect of the entire of these transactions be upon the fate of Turkey? We cannot concur in any of the views propounded by Mr. Cobden in the course of his extra ordinary speech on this subject. We do not think it is the duty or the interest of this country to concur in a crusade to drive the Turks out of Europe, either because they are Mahomedans, or because their Sovereign has not the same taste for road making, or for architecture, that distinguishes the Cos sack King. The policy of the Porte has, year after year, become more liberal in religion and in trade, while that of St. Petersburg has grown more and more cruel to wards every species of dissent, and more and more pro hibitive towards every branch of British manufacture. We profess uo special admiration of the tenets of Islam ism, or of the defects which still retard the progress in material prosperity of the Ottoman race. But be their faults or errors what they may, they are ancient allies, f r.

Lord Palmerston's reply to Mr. Cobden was masterly and conclusive. It will be read with feelings of pleasure and of pride, mingled only with the unwelcome sense of popular perplexity at finding its author an assenting party to a policy which, when vindi cated by Mr. Cobden on the only grounds of which it is susceptible of defence, his lordship feels bound to repu diate and condemn. From the first, the tone assumed both by Lord John Russell and Lord Palmerston has created the impression that they reluctantly abet the course which their colleagues have pursued ; and as suredly their speeches ofyesterday will not tend to shake or to remove that conviction. THE BURMESE WAR. ( Front the London Gazette of last night.) INDIA-BOARD, AUGUST 15. A dispatch has been this day received at the East India- House, from the Governor-General of India in Council, inclosing the Notification of which the following is a copy : NOTIFICATION. Fort William, June 30. In the proclamation by which the province of Pegu was annexed to the British dominions in the East, the Go vernor-General in Comipil declared that he desired no fur ther conquest in Burmah, and was willing to consent that hostilities should cease. Therefore, the Burman troops were everywhere with drawn • the King was dethroned by his brother, the Meng doon irince ; and an envoy was sent from Ava to sue for peace. . The Burman Envoy, confessing their inability to resist the power of the British Government, and submissively soliciting its forbearance, announced his willingness to sign a treaty in accorclance,with the proclamation, object ing only to the frontier being placed at Iteeaday. The Government of India, while it maintained its un doubted right to fix the frontier where it has been placed, at the same time gave signal proof of the sincerity of ii s desire for the renewal of friendly relations between the States ' • for, in the hope of at once concluding a Treaty of Peace, the Governor-General in Council consented to with draw the frontier from Meeaday, and place it, in strict conformity to the most literal wording of the Proclamation, immediately to the northward of Prome and Tounghoo, cities which have been described, at all times, as within the northern limits of Pegu, in the official records of trans actions between the States. But, when this consession was offered, the Burman En voy, wholly receding from his previous declarations, re fused to assent to any treaty by which a cession of terri tory should be made. Thereupon, the negotiations were at once broken off ; the frontier of the British Territories was finally to the north-west of Meeaday and Tounghoo ; and the Envoy was directed to quit the camp. The Envoy proceeded to the capital, whence he has now conveyed to the Government of India the sentiments and proposal of the Court of Ava. The King expresses his desire for the cessation of war. The King announces, that " Orders have been issued to the Governors of Districts not to allow the Burmese troops to attack the territories of Meeaday and Tounghoo, in which the British Government has placed its garrisons." Furthermore the King has set at liberty the British sub jects who had been carried prisoners to Ava ; and he has expressed his wish, that " the merchants and people of both countries should be allowed, in accordance with for mer friendship, to pass up and down the river, for the pur pose of trading." Mindful of the assurance he gave that hostilities would not be resumed so long as the Court of Ava refrained from disputing our quiet possession of the province of Pegu, the Governor-General in Council is willing to accept these pa cific declarations and acts of the King, as substantial proof of his acquiescence in the proposed conditions of peace, al though a formal treaty has not been concluded. Wherefore, the Governor-General in Council permits the raising of the river blockade; consents to the renewal of former intercourse with Ave ; and now proclaims the restoration of peace. The Army of Ava will no longer be maintained on a war establishment. At the same time, a force will be perma nently retained in Pegu, amply adequate for its defence, and fully prepared for the event of war. The Governor-General in Council, while he announced the successive events of the war, has gladly seized each fitting occasion for bestowing promptly on the several offi cers whose services were mentioned with distinction, the cordial thanks and approbation of the Government of India. His lordship in Council deems it unnecessary now to repeat in detail acknowledgments of individual merit that are still so recent ; but he cannot close the record of this war without again conveying to the services generally an assurance of the admiration with which he has viewed the combined exertions whereby, under God's good provi dence, the supremacy of our power in the East has once more been asserted and upheld. A full and fitting recognition of the services of her Majesty's naval squadron, belongs to a higher authority than Ins. But the Governor-General in Council begs leave to offer to Commodore Lambert, to the officers, seamen, and marines, who have been employed on the coast of Barmah, and more especially to the officers and crew of H.M.S. Fox, an acknowledgment of the deep obligatio n which the Government of India owes to them, for the gallantry, the good conduct, the unflinching endurance, and ready cheerfulness, with which they have performed the harassing duties, by which the Government of India has profited so largely. With sentiments of equal cordiality, the Governor- General in Council once again renews to Major-General Godwin, and, through him, to Brigadier-General Sir Joh , Cheape, to Brigadier-General Steel, and to all the officers and non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the armies of Bengal and Madras, who have be en servin g in Pegu, his best and truest thanks for the courage, the fortitude, and steady disciwhiline, which they have exhibite rod on every service in p ch they have been employed throughout the war with Burmah. To Captain Lynch and to the officers, seamen, and marines of the Indian Navy, and, at the same time, to the officers and men of the Bengal Marine, and to the comma nders and crews of the R iver Flotilla, the ee of h ve ia rn f o u r l i General in Council desir es to offer theataisosnu of the exertions on e in the course of approbation, and of his entire appre an d privations they h ave un have been ai e n n e g d a g o e tthe ser- In testimony of the sense that is ent ert vices and conduct of the combined force, the Governor-Ge neral in Council is pleased to direct that a donation of six months' batty shall be issued to all officers, non-commis sioned officers, and men of l the se dveraluring t N he progress aval and Mi of the war with Burmah. And it shall be the further care of the Governor-General in Council to bring these services and conduct under the pe •al notice, and recommend them to the most favour able consideration of Her Majesty's Government, and of the Honourable Court of DBE irectors. order, &..c , J. P. GRANT, Officiating Secretary to the Governmeni of India.

THE CATASTROPHE AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE. o fa f r th i t The details which we gave yesterday respecting the deplorable accident at the Crystal Palace on the previ tohuesyawfteernnt,ooyne,t although h im u b t s a ta n n t t n ia ad lly eg c u o a rre te c i t de a a s terrible character of the event. It was feared that the number which we announced yesterday as having perished was not the real extent of loss of life, and that on the wreck of the scaffolding, which lay heaped upon the flooring of the transept, being removed, the remains of other sufferers would be discovered. Happily, how ever, such anticipation was not realised, the unfortunate creatures who perished being confined to the twelve previously reported. On visiting the building yesterday morning we found Sir Joseph Paxton (who had been telegraphed for from Chatsworth), Mr. F. Fuller, the managing director of the company, and the contractors, Sir Charles Fox and Mr. Henderson, engaged in surveying the wo rks ; and it was not until ' then that we could fully appreciate the magnitude of the disaster. A. very large mass of frame work, apparently of great strength, which had been con structed for the formation of the more inside portion of the western division of the centre and great transept, had fallen from its position, some 180 feet high, carry in g with it a part o f th e girders and several columns on the north side of the nave, the whole lying one heterogene ous mass of twisted iron and shattered timber upon the flooring.beneath. As previously arranged, the wreck i fix i ng 08 feet th h e i gr ribs r e th d a i n ehew t re here different tt elevationhtto they y that were was not allowed to b e di s t ur b e d unt il S ir J ose ph Paxton, Sir Charles Fox, an d o th er part i es o f hi g h eng ineering authority had an oppo r t un it y o f exam i n i ng it an d the tHi u e i e l r g building. oyfidn owing I te h t .g e p is t oldo ra i k intended the palace, e ae n n d d e l d o t o feet be n in o lessb bre adth. e course it had taken in f a lli ng . e The centre transept, a s some o f our rea d ers ma y be aware, will, when completed, b e th e c h e f d' ceuvre o f the bu ar en : s h ude e ed d bodily . span, E in x t h hi ad th th an . 2 11 08 e fe p et ri i: height ep n e in ef (l H transeptPo r af framework was constructed of timber and iron of pecu liar strength and bearing. On a kind of stage which was thrown across the entire breadth of the transept avenue, were erected several trusses, the ends of which rested upon timber on the summit of the iron columns of the side galleries. The trusses were of the form generally employed in the construction of roofs of railway stations. They were very firmly tied by iron bands, and otherwise strongly secured. On the top of the first tier, of trusses another kind of staging was to be formed, and upon this the upper trusses were fixed, which would afford the workmen every faci lity in throwing over the ribs. Three tiers of upper and lower trusses had been completed at the front of the transept ; the fourth, fifth, and sixth lower trusses were fixed ; and the seventh, which was the last that part of the works in the transept required, was standing close to the sixth, and in readiness for the men to move it on to its position, which they could accomplish by " pur chasing" it along on a sheet of timber upon which it rested. It has been stated that they were in the act of shifting this seventh truss when the catastrophe occurred, but that has been questioned on the ground that it would not be required in its appointed place for a day or so. What particular work the unfortunate men were engaged at at the time of the accident has not satisfac torily transpired, but it would seem that some failure took place which led to the shifting and falling of the seventh truss, and the carrying with it of the sixth and fifth. The latter were most firmly fixed to gether, as they were to the fourth, which kept its posi tion, notwithstanding the strain of several tons of falling woodwork. The great strength of this principle of truss is also fully illustrated by the position of the wreck on the flooring beneath. Instead of shooting out more to wards the centre of the building, which would have been the case had it not been held by some strong power, it has dropped close under the trusses in the face of the transept, clearly indicating the strength with which it had been held to the other parts of the structure. Sir Joseph Paxton and Sir Charles Fox made very minute inquiries of the heads of the building department, with a view of eliciting anything that might throw a light upon the probable cause, but nothing decisive was arrived at. The galleries and staging had been constructed under the direction of the most skilled mechanics, and who had been similarly employed in forming the transept of the Hyde-park Exhibition. Sir C. Fox remarked that the only opinion he at present could give as to the cause of the melancholy event was, that the workmen had had left out some important part in the trusses they put up. Considering the alarming character of the accident and the great number of hands employed in the vicinity of the transept when the destruction of the upper works took place, it is a subject of much congratulation that the loss of life was not greater. As far as our inquiries went we could not hear of any one man who was on the basement sustaining any material injury. Mr. Chamberlaine, the medical gentleman of Wolver hampton, who rendered immediate assistance to the unfor tunate sufferers, thus describes the scene he witnessed : A few minutes before the accident he was viewing the ex terior of the works from the lane which runs along the Norwood side of the building, when a sharp noise like the falling of a plank attracted his notice, and turning to the centre transept observed something falling through the galleries. Seeing that no notice was taken of the circumstance he proceeded down the lane, and then noticing that the workmen on the north transept were looking eagerly at the centre one, he turned round, and at that instant a loud crack took place, and he perceived that a large portion of the staging or scaf folding was giving way. There was a great cry, fol lowed by a tremendous crash, and he noticed the workmen dropping like partridges. Being satisfied that some terrible accident had occurred, he hastened to the entrance and got admission to the interior, where a most shocking scene presented itself to his view. The workpeople were rushing out in a state of the greatest dismay and terror. Amidst the broken tim bers and mass that had partly buried itself in the floor ing he saw 16 or 17 workmen, dead and dying. With the assistance of Mr. Belshaw, the superintendent of the building, and other gentlemen whom he saw there, a body of men were urged to render aid in extricating the sufferers ; a work which occupied a considerable time. Many were found to have met with an instanta neous death • some by pitching on their heads on to the sharp edge of the iron ribs for the transept, which laid on that part of the floor, and others by being crushed beneath the ponderous mass. In one spot were seen some ten or twelve feet below the nurface, three men whom it was thought were killed. Two of them, mar vellously enough, were found to be but slightly injured, although they had been precipitated from the very top of the scaffolding ; the third was discovered to have sustained a double fracture of the skull. He was recognised to be John Perry, who now lies in Guy's Hospital without hopes of recovery. Mr. Chamberlains caused a tempo rary hospital to be formed in the south end of the build ing, where the sufferers were conveyed, and where on the arrival of other medical gentlemen their state was promptly attended to. Mr. Chamberlaine accompanied the survivors to Guy's Hospital, and saw them properly housed and banded over to the care of the surgeons of the institution. The remains of the ten men who were picked out of the wreck, dead, were deposited in one of the outhouses of the building, and have since been identified. The following are their names :—William Forman, James Waller, George Topham, George Fielding, George Copping, William James, William Middleton, William Smith, John Neale, and Charles Hardy. The names of those dead at Guy's Hospital are Henry Reading and John Harris. Respecting the condition of the injured survivors lying in Guy's Hospital, the report of the medical officer last night to the conductors, states that, with the ex ception of the man Perry, all were progressing favour ably. During the excitement of Monday afternoon conse quent on the accident, Mr. Sergeant Lund, of the D divi sion, and a strong body of his force rendered most im portant services in assisting the wounded men, and pro tecting the building from the thousands who flocked to the spot. At present there is almost a cessation of labour at the works. The inquest on the bodies lying in the building is fixed for to-day. With regard to the amount of damage which the mis- A hap has occasioned, it is computed to exceed 6,0001. ,ii NEWFOUNDLAND. —The accounts of the fishery re ceived at St. John's, from the outports, were very con tradictory.

THE ARMY. On Wednesday a company, with head-quarters, of the 62d Regiment, under the command of Lieutenant - Colonel Trollope, arrived at Kilkenny from Athlone. The day's march was an exceedingly severe one in the present warm weather. On Thursday another company of the 62d arrived from Shannon-bridge; whilst on the pre. vious day a company from Athlone proceeded to Carlow, and another, some days before, from Philipstown to Maryborough. On Friday a company of the 62d arrived at Wexford from Tullamore ; and the following day another company, from Roscommon, proceeded to Thurles to relieve a company of the 9th Regiment. The company of the 9th Regiment, under the com mand of Captain the Hon. W. L. Talbot, to be relieved atThurles by the 62d, proceeds to Clonmel to join head quarters ; and Captain Bethune's company of the same regiment, from Wexford, arrived on Friday at Canick on-Suir, there to be stationed. The company of the depot of the 2d or Queen's Regi ment, under command of Captain Squire, relieved by 62d at Maryborough, has joined head-quarters at Tern pletnore. BlRR.—Three soldiers belonging to the depot of the Ist Royal Regiment, attired anabourers, were placed at the bar at Birr petty sessions charged with desertion. Sub-constable Cox proved that on the night previous, between ten and eleven, when on patrol near Rivers stown, he met the prisoners, who stated that they were going to work at Nenagh ; suspecting that they were de serters, he apprehended them, and brought them to the barracks, where they admitted that they were soldiers, and stated where they had left part of their necessaries. The court directed them to be handed over to their commanding officer, and forwarfled a report of their arrest to the Secretary of War. Two labourers named Caddihy were charged with having in their possession a stock, a pair of boots, &c., belonging to one of the de serters. They were fined 10s., treble the value of the boots, &c., with costs of court, or be imprisoned one fortnight each. Thursday last a district court-martial, composed of the following officers, assembled at Limerick, viz.:— Lieutenant-Col nel Cuppwr"e, R.A. president • Major Calder, Local Pensioner s ; Major Bentinck, 7th D.G. ; Captain Smith, R.A. ; Captain Dwyer, 16611 ; Captain Trevor, 14th ; Captain Fraser, 60th ; Captain Douglas, 60th ; Lieut.

ROYAL COMMISSION.—A meeting of the Royal Com mission for the Exhibition of 1851 was held on Monday at the Privy Council-office. The Commissioners present were—Earl Granville, the Right Hon. E. Cardwell, Sir W. Cubbitt, Sir C. Eastlake, Sir C. Lyell, and Mr. Coulson, Q.C. Mr. E. Bowring, Secretary to the Commission, was in attendance. THE CLERGY ORPHAN CORPORATION. The usual quarterly court of the governors and subscribers to this valuable institution, which was incorporated in 1809, for clothing and educating poor orphans of clergymen of the Established Church, was held yesterday afternoon in the Board-room, 79, Pall-mall, for the purpose of electing six children into the asylum, and upon other business. The Rev. Dr. Russell presided, and amongst those pre sent we noticed the Venerable Archdeacon Hale, the Rev. Dr. Jacobson, and the Revs. G. Currey, R. T. Wharton, J. D. Glennie, W. T. Bullock, and J. Evans. The minutes of of the last Court having been read and confirmed, and the election of six children from a list of thirteen candidate proceeded with, the chairman an nounced several new subscriptions to the fund for build ing a new school at Canterbury, and uped upon the clergy the necessity of exertions to obtain the subscrip tions still needed to carry out the objects contemplated. The report states that the fund above alluded to was set on foot by the Rev. Dr. Samuel Wilson Warneford, who in February, 1852, gave 3.0001. to purchase a site for a new boys' school ; 4,0001. towards building a school for 100 boys, St. John's-wood schools being given up the girls, and their number increased to 100 ; \ and 6,0001. to found six scholarships, three scholars to be elected annually for two years each, at 301. per an num, from the date of their regular superannuation. A. vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro ceedings. METROPOLITAN IMPROVEMENTS.—By order of the commissioners for carrying out the improvements in the city of London, a further portion of the houses in Ray street, Clerkenwell, are forthwith to be demolished, to complete the direct line of communication from Black friars-bridge and Farringdon-street to Islington and the Great Northern Railway terminus at King's-cross. The long-talked of widening of Fenchurch-street is at last being carried out, and the whole of the houses on the south side, extending from Mark-lane, crossing London street and Railway-place, up to Church-row, conti guous to the East India Company's warehouse, are being de molished for that purpose.

A NARROW ESCAPE. —On Thursday night last as a Barnsley vessel, heavily laden with timber, was proceed. ing up the Trent from Hull to Gainsborough, she sud denly capsized near Althorpe Ness, in consequence of the tide flowing very strongly and her cargo being piled too high on her deck. The master, James Bray, and another man and a boy succeeded in getting safely to shore, but a little boy, seven years of age, was left in the cabin, it being impossible to get at him, and it was feared he must perish. The vessel shortly aft erwards drifted, keel uppermost, to a sandbank, when the per sons in charge of the vessel heard the little fellow' wis, Cry• Cry ing out.

EVENlNG.—Fromingthe fromin t q h u e l i r r i in q uir i es homes made sinceth i this day respect ing persons nos Sunday night, there seems not the least doubt now entertained but that several men were prematurely hurried into eternity when that portion of the cliff fell on Monday morning, alluded to in our paper of yesterday. Three or four persons who lived in the neighbourhood of Limekiln street and Snaresbrook-street, and one near the Theatre Royal, have not been heard of since Monday morning, although they were all seen near the spot where that portion of the cliff cell a few minutes before the alarm was sounded. There appears to be now strong ground for concluding that several persons were crushed to death when the immense fall of chalk took place. A very considerable period must elapse before the autho rities of the town will be able to remove the ms,ss o chalk, weighing nearly 2,000 tons, that fell, so as to enable them to know for certainty how many perseas have perished.
