BRADFORD, March 24.—W00l —A great quantity o f all kinds of coming wools has changed hands within the last ten days, and at high rates, compared with this period last year. This move is no doubt from the fact of the absorption of the purchases made at the end of last year, and a desire to secure a supply of good class wool, which this market is exceedingly low of, particularly in wethers and wether sorts, which have been in continued request. Down tegs and diamond matchings are not abun dant ; half-bred hogs have been less called for, and may be found in greater plenty than other sorts. On the whole, there is an unsatifactory state of things, the con sumption being too close on the supply, and the account 4 from the wool-growing districts add nothing of a more cheering character, the cold and wet season having been against the flock owners. Noils and brokes are now getting scarce ; the high price that wool is commanding tends to limit the quantity making.

The distance after noon yards, over 10 hurdles. The race con tested, both men taking their leaps together until they reached the eighth hurdle, which Patterson failed to clear and fell, leaving Fenwick an easy wi nner. The Brocas was crowded with sporting gentlemen, among whom were Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, and many o f the officers in garrison at Windsor. new boiler. The benefit of the removal of the tube-ends in the new boiler, from the direct action of the fire, was considered to be more than balanced by the liability of the lower part of the combustion-chamber to become over-heated: and to be burned away, owing to the lodging of steam, at the junction with the fire-box. It was suggested that, in order to obtain results from the new engine, the combustion-chamber should be abolished, the number of the tubes should be reduced, and their length be extended to the fire-box, which should be restricted to 16 square feet of area. It was further argued that, in the statement of "actual working results, &c., ' the formula had been misunderstood and wrongly applied ; for instance, in the two Crewe engines, of identical proportions, the re- sults of the formula were stated as 86.2, 844, and 73'7, whereas the same results ought to have been applied to each. In No. 291 engine a;imilar discrepancy - was ap parent, the results being 116 . 5 and 102/. In the ex periments themselves there were several unexplained anomalies, and in some instances the engines, instead of working at their full power, were performing very in adequate duty, and therefor under circumstances to which the formula was not intended to apply. In the case of the altered goods engine, No. 125, it was urged that in its original state the engine m us t h ave been either in a very inefficient condition, or that its duty must have been chiefly confined - to piloting, when it would have been consuming the fuel, without - producing any useful effect ; as a consumption of 51 lbs. or 58 lbs. per mile run, with an average train of 115 tons, was out of all proportion. That the result of the working, after alteration—viz., a consumption of 89 lbs. and 43 lbs. The fireman who, on the morning of the explosion, succeeded the night fireman Hazell, stated to the jury that Hazell, on coming up, reported all safe and free from gas, though he did not particulary report on the east side, where the explosion afterwards occurred. Boys were placed at the heading doors, but not at the stall doors, though be considered that men should be put to perform that work --not boys. When he went down he examined the various headings, to ascertain if the workings were free from gas. This he tested with his lamp—first with the gauze on, and then without it. He thoroughly examined into every working, and found all safe ; though in one quarter he found a " blower," or indication of gas in thesoof. Throughout the day the workings were still considered safe by him ; bat, not withstanding all the precautions which he had, as usual, adopted, an explosion took place in the afternoon, just about the time when, on Saturdays, the men ordinarily prepared to ascend from work. The mineral agent of the works, Mr. Green, described the routine of operations adopted by him, and all under him, who had the control and management of the works, for the due supply of air, the thorough ventilation of the pits, and the enforcing of strict rules with regard to the working by light of the Davy lamp. The men, how ever, when the works were found free from gas, ordi narily worked with candles, as by the former mode it would be impossible to procure an existence. Some witnesses followed, whose evidence went chiefly to point out the circumstances attendant on the explo sion, and the position, &c., in which the bodies of the dead were found. From all these men there was not the slightest difficulty in obtaining the most free admission of the fact that, although the seam of coal was a highly inflammable one, and scores of men had met their death in working it, there was still no hesitation among the colliers generally to work it, after the morning examina tion by the firemen, with their naked lights. They as generally admitted that the ventilation of the pits was as good as could be procured by machinery, and the machinery had been put up under the direction of the most experienced men, and upon the best principles. The jury having consulted for a short time upon the facts, which were clearly laid before them by the Deputy. Coroner —namely, that the workings had been pro nounced free from gas in the morning ; that the men Davies and Williams ' working together in a stall, had incautiously removed a sheet, and diverted the current of intake air, and that thereby, in a part of a working through which they were passing out with naked candles on leaving work gas had accumulated, which gas, coming into collision with the candles, had itaploded, causing the deaths of all those whose lives had been destroyed—re turned a verdict in accordance therewith, and attributing the deaths of the poor fellows to the negligence of Davies, which verdict, had Davies been still living, would have amounted to manslaughter.

H e i s consequently 67 years of age ; and such is the precarious state of his health that it is doubt ful, if he should return to the United States from his present visit to the West Indies, whether he will be able to perform the duties of vice-president. These are limited to presiding in the Senate ; and, in his absence, the president pro tem. of that body, who is elected by the senators, takes his place. Mr, Atchinson, of Miseouri, is at present president pro tern. In case of the death of the Vice-president, Mr. Atchinson would remasn in the same position as at present, without assuming the title, as the office would then be vacant ; but in case of the death of both President and Vice- President, the President of the Senate pro tem. becomes President of the United States, until an election can be held. This is according to the provisions of the Act of Congress of March 1, 1792. jaonen, a t tn h hd e irtd l h 7 e t d h laaiti ins eg t., at DllagEgiDngton.hall Warwick-8111'4 THE REPRESENTATION OF CANTERBURY.—A third On the 24th of N candidate has just announced himself for this borough in the person Hon.
