Wheat. Barley. English \I 1,010 580 Irish — Foreign 6,880 11,770 EAST INDIA COMIANY. QUARTERLY MEETING, rAIIS DAY. A quarterly meeting of the East India proprietors was bold this afternoon, at the East India House, Lead enhall-street—Mr. Mangles, M.P., chairman of the Board of Diyectors, ii the chair. Although this was the fir3t meeting of proprietors since the outbreak i❑ the attendance of proprietors was not above the usual average. Mr. DENT, as one of the committee for the Indian 11,Iiief Fund, asked the chairman why the Court of Directors ha I not sul_scril,ed towards the fund now raising for the relief of the sufferers by too late lament able mutiny in India. illear, hear.) The circumstance had been etroegly remarked upcu by the public. Mr. LEWIN considers, it wou'd be better not then to enter on the question. He believed it would be found that the Government of Iralla was responsible for the loss that had been occasioned by the mutiny. (Hear.) The °HAMLIN said that the Board had not yet come to a definite resolution cc this subject,. The Court, he was certain, would feel tenerally that this was a very largo and important questim, and one to which the history of the world had no paraild. (Hear.) He assured the court that the Board of Directors would be guided, in this instance, by the general law of nations, and the uni ver.al rule adopted in such CMOS. (Hear.) A similar occurrence had happened h this country, and the pre cedent then established wouid, in all probability, be fol lowed by the directors. He was not prepared, off hand, to state what course should or should not be taken under the circumstances. (Hear.) What the Court had done was this, they had written to the Governor- General of India giving him instructions to take care that nobody should be allowed to perish from want of means or care—whether they wore the company's servants or not. (Hear, hear.) With regard to their own military servants, the directors would con sider the orphans and widows of the officers who had fallen victims to this frightful military mutiny, entitled to the name pension or allowance as if such officers had fallen in action. (Hear, hear.) M. DENT remarked that as soon as it was intimated to her Majesty that a fund was being raised for the unfor tunate sufferers, her Majesty and the Prince Consort telegraphed their intention of subscribing 1,0001., and 3001. to the fund. It appeared to him that delay with the directors arose from a reference to higher quarters. If precedents were needed for 'the Court of Directors subscribing to this fund he would roger them to the fund raised to relieve the distress occasioned by the French inundation' and the Irish famine. In fact, if it were necessary, such precedents could easily be multiplied. (Hear, hear.) The propriety of subscrib ing to the Indian relief fund he thought required but little, if any, deliberation from them; for he could not conceive there was any difference of opinion amongst the Board of Directors on the subject,—(hear)—and if it was necessary to apply to Cannon-row for permission to subscribe, he thought they had but to telegraph, and an immediate reply in the affirmative would be returned. (Hear, hear.) The public looked with deep regret on 1 this apparent want of sympathy with the sufferers, which the conduct of the board appeared to exhibit. (Hear, hear.) He asked the directors if they had any objection to lay before the Court the despatch referred to by the chairman. The CHAIRMAN said he could gfva no other answer than that he had already given with reference to the Court of Directors subscribing to the relief fund. There would be no objection to produce a copy of the de spatch to the Governor-General of India, already referred to. Mr. JONES said that if the directors were to cease from their annual feasting that alone would place a large sun at the disposal of the Board for this purpose. There was annually spent between 3,0001. and 4,0001. in dinners, and were the directors to forgo that pleasure for the next five years, it would give a sum of 20,0001. to be immediately appropriated towards the relief of the distressed. (Hear, heat, and laughter.) The CHAIRMAN said there had been no dinners this year. (Hear, hear ) Mr. LEWIN said he thought the Court might place every confidence in the Board in that respect. (Hear.) The CHAIRMAN said the Court might rest satisfied that the Board of D'rectore would do all they could to mitigate the present distress in India, and provide for the suffereral hereafter. He should be sorry if anything the directors did had the effect of stopping private bene volence, because it would be impossible for the Govern ment of India to meet every case. There would be no doubt cases beyond their reach which the benevolence of the public would be able to meet, and he trusted the appeal made to the public on behalf of the sufferers in India would be met in that liberal and charitable spirit which had always characterised the English nation in periods of great calamity. (Cries of " Hear, hear.") Ho weld not conceive a more noble opportunity for the display ol munificence and charity on the part of the people than that presented by the deplorable events in India. (Hear, hear.) The subject then dropped. INDIAN REPRESENTATIVES AT THS LEADENHALL-STREET BOARD. Mr. BROWN called attention to a notice of motion Mr Jones had on the paper relative to representatives from India at their Board, and asked the hon. proprietor not to proceed with it then, for if he did be (Mr. Brown! should feel himself compelled to count the court. (Hear.: Mr. JONES said the hon. proprietor might take what course he choose. He was accustomed to meet with opposition and interruption at the quarterly courts, bat . nothing should deter him from doing his duty. He in tended to proceed with his motion, and if the hon. pro prietor persisted in the course he had threatened, which would have the effect of stopping him (Mr. Jones) on that occasion, be would take advantage of it end adopt a similar course at every succeeding meeting till they bad heard what he had to say: Mr. Junes then proposed the motion of which he had given notice, viz : "That it is due to the advancing intelligence of the people of India that a deputation from each university of the several presidencies be maintained at the public expense in this country with a view to inform the proprietors as to the complaints and wishes of the people of India." The hon. gentleman proceeded to address the committee on the recent horrible atrocities that had been committed, and upbraided the proprietors and the public generally for their apathy towards Indian affairs. He also condemned the system of annexation that had been pueaued in India, and said that deprecating as he did the horrible and disgusting conduct of Nana Sahib, he could not but think he had some excuse for joining in the revolt from the manner in which he had been treated by the Indian Government. (No, no.) Mr. BROWN then moved that the Court be counted, which was done, and as there were but 17 out of 20 owners: of 1,0001. stock, the Court was suddenly brought to a termination. ri — i‘Bw6.—('isnis Day.)

In prices no change took place. The show of foreign wheat was not to say ,extensive, yet sales could not be effected unless at a considerable reduc tion in price. . Barley and malt moved off slowly, but no actual change took place in their value. We had a steady demand for oats at full currency. The supply of foreign was extensive.

TH$ ROYAL BRITISH BANK-MEETING FOE THE LAST EXAMINATION OF THE DIRECTORS. To day was appointed for the last examination of the directors representing the Royal British Bank under the bankruptcy. Three balance-sheets have been filed, extendi❑g over upwards of 800 folio pages. Triz CLADI OF Ma. MYERS.—Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, said, that a few days since the Court was applied to with respect to a claim made by Mr, Myers, the builder, and it war submitted that the matter should be submitted to reference, but the assignees considered it was not so much a matter of account as law, and he therefore had to ask his Honour to fix a day for discus sing the case. His Honour appointed the 28th of October for that purpose. Mr. Linklater said this was the meeting for the last meeting, and two halanc-_-sheets had been fils.d, but so recently that an adjournment was absolutely necessary in order that the assignees might have an opportunity of examining the accouut3. One balance was prepared by Mr. Coleman ; one by Mr. Stapleton individually ; another on behalf of Mr. Alderman Konne ly, Mr. Vail lant, Mr. Eidaile and M‘Lood ; and one by Mesas. Cooper and Stevens on the part of Messrs. Gillott, Hurst, and Batt, who became directors on the sth cf . August, before the bankruptcy. The Court had directed that the balance-sheet should be filed on or before the let of Sept., but the first was not filed until the 12th inst., and that by Messrs. Cooper and Stevens only this morning. Mr. Sleigh, Mr. Mason, and Mr. Freshfield, who appeared for the directors, assented to the adjournment. Mr. Linklater then went into a very lengthened explanation of the course which had pursued by the assignees, who had been exceedingly anxious to promote the interests of the creditors. With respect to the dividend which it had been intended to declare this day, he was sorry to say it could not be made, as the assignees bad not been able to effect a sale of the Welsh mines, which were set down at 120,0001., but he hal no doubt that eventually the creditors would receive a dividend of 20e. in the pound, namely, 108. from the estate, 6s. 63. from the shareholders, with whom the assignees en tertained strong hopes that they would be able to effect each a compromise as would be satisfactory to the creditors, and meet the sanction of the court. He then explained that the Act of Parliament, giving power to effect a compromise, did not interfere with the interests of the creditors, who could appTy to the court for leave to procee 1 against any shareholder who would be re quired to give security. He strongly urged the share holders to come forward and contribute, and many had returned from abroad with the intention of doing so. Mr. Lawrance addressed the court to the same effect. The meeting was then adjourned for two months. BOROUG _ There is a large supply of lit wand continues heavy. The c? WHITECHAPEL.

FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION IN DURIIA3I.—About nine o'clock on Sunday morning one of the boilers at the Trimdon Grange Colliery exploded with a loud report. It shook the earth. The report was heard for about a mile distant, and was something like the explosion of a magazine of powder. On proceeding to the scene of desolation, it was jest as if thetown had been bombarded for a considerable time.- The chimney was split, the stone walls blown to atoms, and the boilers shifted out of their places, and a large number of houses damaged appearance ; though and various other things. The hou ses had a curious by bricks, stones, pulleys , metal pipe!, bolt of wood, they were quite grey, just as if shined with lime water. The boiler had split in two ; the top part was blown over the tope of s;x or eight houses, and fell into ago id about 100 or 120 yards' distance from the place. The other part was lifted over the engines, bousee, and railway, on to the dust-heap, at a distance of about 150 yards. On clearing away the stones and rubbish near where the boiler stood, the bodies of two young men were discovered—the one named John Orton, the other Roper, the fireman. They were dreadfully scalded, and of course quite dead. A child playing in the streets was struck by one of the bricks, and there seems to be little or no hope of its 'recovery. Various rumours are afloat as to the cause of the excident, but of Course the truth will not be known till the inquest.— • Mandtater Guardian. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.) WESTMINSTER. UNPROVOKED AND FEROCIOUS ASSAULT.—Patrick Welsh, a fellow of meat repulsive appearance, who bore marks of having been recently engaged in a pugilistic contest, was charged with the Billowing unprovoked and ferocious assaults : William Anderson, a very respectable looking elderly man, said he and his son accompanied by two or three friends, went into a public house at Knighteb►idge, at three o'clock yesterday afternoon and called for some spirits. On their being poured out prisoner intruded himself into their company, and insisted upon having some. They refused to give him any, upon which he seized some tobacco out of complainant's son's hand, and upon his endeavouring to prevent his getting it, prisoner threw him violently on the ground on his head. Com plainant seeing his son weltering i❑ his blood and insen sible endeavoured to secure the accused, who attacked him with great fury and then ran away. Mr. Paynter—What was the amount of the injury done to your son T Complainant—He was insensible from the effects of the injury at the hospital for four hours. Mr. Paynter—How did tie prisoner get the marks he now bears upon his face. Police constable Page, 147 B.—He got those marks on the previous night. He went into a coffeeshop at Knightsbridge, and robbed a labouring man of two halt crowns. He was detected in the act, and the man in stead of giving him into custody gave him a sound thrashing. Mr. Paynter— Do you know the prisoner? Constable—Well, and he is one of the most desperate characters in London. He has been repeatedly charged with violent assaults, so often that I can safely say out of the last eight years he has been in prison four. Mr. Paynter, to prisoner—What have you to say. Prisoner—l only wanted a pipe of tobacco, and they would not let me have it, and hit me. Mr. Paynter—You have committed a most unpro voked and brutal assault, and are remanded for a week, by which time the effect of the injuries inflicted by you will be ascertained. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A THIEF DlCTECTED.—Eiizabeth Campbell, a decent looking young woman, was brought before Mr. Bingham, on the following charge. It appeared, from the evidence of Mr. Aldoree, pawn broker, of Berwick-street, tbat on the preceding after noon, the prisoner entered his shop, and °Wesel the two pieces of cloth produced in pledge. He asked her how many yards there were ? She replied 28 ; that she wanted the loan of V., that the silk was al in one piece, and that these was quite sufficient to make two dresses. He then measured it, and found that, in addition to their being only 24 yards, the silk had been cut into two pieces. He told her of this circumstance, and asked who the silk belonged to I She at first said it was her own, and then that it was her sister's, whom she alleged lived close by in Noel - street. Not being at all satisfied with her statement, he sent for a cen-itable and gave her in charge. The silk was subsequently traced to have been stolen from Messrs. Se werby and Tatton'e, Regent- circus. Charles Brown, shopman in the employ of Messrs. Sowerby and Co., identified the silk, which was worth V. 155., as their property. It bed not been sold in the usual way, and was safe in stock yesterday morning. Constable 122 C apprehended the prisoner, who, in answer to his inquiries, said a strange woman had given the silk to her to pledge, and she was to have 51. for her trouble, and she being hard up for money gladly accepted the offer, not knowing it was stolen. At the station she, was searched and a sovereign found upon her. Prisoner now pleaded guilty, and was committed for six months. SEIZURE OF OBSCENE PUBLICATIONS. Bet seen 4 and 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon ranch excite ment was caused in Holy well-street and Wych-street, in consequence of a large body of police under the direction of Soper intendant Durkin, of the F division, making a most extensive seizure of obscene books and prints at a number of the shops in each of the above-named streets. A. few days ago search-warrants were issued by Mr. Jardine, and ye=terday afternoon they were carried into execution. The arrangements for the seizure were all carried out in the most quiet mantle - , a constable having been placed at the door at each of the shops to prevent any person leaving the premises without the knowledge of the police. Six shops were entered, and a number of portfolios, containing prints of the most disgusting descrip tion, also an immense quantity of books, were seized by the police and conveyed to the Bow-atreet police-court. The houses entered were-14, 52, and 53, Holy well-street ; and 45, 40, and 2, Wych-street. The books and prints having been laid before Mr. Jardine, Mr. Bodkin said he had to apply for six summonses, under the act lately passed by the Legislature for the prevention of the sal• of obscene publications. The police, aimed in each cage, had entered the several houses above-mentioned, and had found th• books now on the table. Sergeant Thomas was than examined, and stated that he entered the premises, 52, Holywell-street, and there found a large quantity of plates of an obscene nature. Mr. Bodkin—What is the name of the person who occupies the shop Sergeant Thomas—The man gave the name of Smith. A summons was then granted. Inspector Firman, of the B division, then came for ward, and, in answer to questions from Mr. Bodkin, said he entered the premises No. 2, Wych-street, occupied by a person who gate the name of Charles Paul, and seized a number of books and prints which he considered of an obscene nature. He also found a goon- tity of stereotype plates of a book which he considered came within the meaning of the act. A summons was also granted in this case. Evidence of a 'similar description was given in four other cases, and summonses were granted for the attendance of the parties keeping the shops. Mr. Jardine (taking up one of the books and looking at it) ask.id Idr. Bodkin how he knew that it was an obscene work. Mr. Bodkin—l believe it is, but the book had better be mad. (Laughter.) _ Mr;Jardine—Who's to read it 1. Mr. Bodkin—Superintendent Durkin has had charge of seizures, and he perhaps would do so. Mr. Jardine—Very well. If Mr. Durkin will con sent let it be so. Superintendent Durkin then, smiling, took up a num ber of the books, and left the oourt, promising to "mark the obscene passages." SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LEICESTER RACES.—TUSDAT.

The Whites (brothers) are young men be longing to Bermondsey ; the Pococks (also brothers) hail-from Lambeth. The former are very young men, both having recently been winners of Doggett's Coat and Badge ; the elder Pocock (William) has long been re owued as a sculler and oarsman, but his brother, although giving great promise, and the winner of two or three bard rowed races, is scarcely more than half his I age. The distance was from Putney to Mortlake ; and the day being fine the attendance of spectators was very considerable. Betting was even, the Pococks being taken for choice. Everything being in readiness the men started at a most extraordinary pace the Whites having the best station on the Middlesex side at Putney bridge. The Pococks for a moment drew, but when the Whites got evenly at their work the pace was so equal that they were stem and stern, and so continued pull after pull for a dozen strokes. A most extraordinary and animated race then succeeded, diversified, however, by the Whites going considerably, ever and anon, out of the nearest and best course, which materially advan taged their opponents, and kept up the excitement c )0- sequent upon uncertainty until full half the distance bad been accomplished. The position of oar and oar vies changed again and again to alternate slight leads till above Craven -cottage, where the Whites broke away an went rapidly in advanc e ; but from changing their red couu rubled se, the Pocock', not on l y here, b u t eu bs eq uently,.dgave the gap, which would otherwise have b e mononsi era e.

The a nnual Eton Regatta took place on Monday, and was attended by many officers of the Horse and Foot Guards, most of the Etonians, and a larger concourse of visitori than has been witnessed on former occasions. The races altogether were well contested, and the pig hunt and barrel race created much merriment. The Pair-oared Race was won by G. Goodman and It. Havel ly. The Four-oared Race was won by Hill's crew. The Betr•barrel Race was won by Cannon. The Pig Hunt was won by Sing. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.

THE INDIAN RIME/ FUND.—The Moniteur of yes. terday states that a subscription in favour of the English families, victims of the Indian insurrection, has just been opened under the auspices of the Prefect of the Seine in the mayoralties of the arrondissement of Paris, and of the communes of the arrondissements of Sceaux and St. Denis. THE NEXT NEWS FROM INDIA.—It is considered possible that news of the next mail from India may be received by Friday next. It is idle, however, to attempt to fix any date for the arrival of the mall, since the monsoon, though probably diminished in force, would still be blowing, and the steamers rarely leave the Indian ports on the days fixed for their departure. CAPTURE Of AN ESCAPED CONVICT.—The convict, Joseph Stillman, has arrived in Bristol from Liverpool, and been safely lodged in Bristol gaol. The convict was sentenced to 15 years' penal servitude for murderously assaulting and robbing a man in the employ of Messrs. Hewitt of Bristol, but some months ago escaped from gaol, in company with another convict named Parr, who was undergoing a year's i m prisonment for u tterin g counterfeit coin. Stillman states that they both got away without the connivance or knowledge, but through the neglect, of some of the turnkeys. The doors of their cells and of the infirmary were accidentally left open, and the night officer on coming on duty neglected to ascertain whether they were locked as he should have clone,—.Bristel Mirror. THE DUKE OF CAHBRIDGE AT CRATMN&, The stay in camp of the Duke of Cambridge seems to give fresh animation to the proceedings of the Imperial Guard. The ramblers who daily re turn here from 'Chalons tell us of fireworks, illumi nations, dances, and diversions of all kinds, and particularly of balloon ascents by the brothers: Godard, which seem a very favourite anauiernent with the troops. At sit, oa the day of the duke's- - there was a great dinner at the Imperial Head-quarters, to which all the Generals wero in vited. The capital band of the Guides played dur ing the meal. The table was laid for 50, and, from its position, the Emperor and his guests could be seen at dinner by persons walking in the neigh bourhood. In the evening, the Fnaperor and the Duke went to the Grenadiers' theatre, and were loudly cheered on entering. The pieces playel were the " Almoner of the Regiment," " Titi le Talocbeur," and a " Pic-nic of Auvergnats." In the first-named vaudeville there is a passa , re where the - almoner, disguised as a soldier, Sings a couplet to the effect that the Empe r o r takes the crowns of all the Kings of Europe and gives them to his soldiers. This was received with frantic Inures, so much j so, says a paper, that the staff appeared rather embarrassed. Th 3 Duke o 7 Cambridge s een el greatly amused by.the performance. At its close, the Grenadiers, with torches, escoAcd. the Imperial and Royal visitors to their quarters. The first . per formance of the Arab wedding by the Zouaves was s'.) successful that a second has Leen given on a larger seek, including various episides of Arab life under canvas. On Monday the troops made a move ment in the direction of the Suippe, a river which. flows along the northern limit of the camp, were they were to bivouac two nights. The soldiers have their Jenks d'abri ; it is not mentioned how the officers will manage, but the movement is considered as rather a bore. It was rumoured at Chalons that the duration of the camp would be prolongt d to th i e t 2 c o a l h October, bUt nothing of the kind is p robabl e. The Emperor's return to the camp , a fter his visit J o Stuttgard, is considered certain, but hardly take place until the 30th, so that it is pre umable he will remain there but a short time. THE LATE LAMI3ETH ELteTION. The minutes of evidence taken before the select committee en the Lambeth election petition have just been printed by orderof the House of Commons. The sitting member, Mr. Roupell, was opposed chiefly on the charge of bribery and treating, and the facts that an unusual number of houses were thrown- open by his agents during the election, that his expenseS amounted to 5,3391., be sides the auditor's charges, And that one of the witnesses alleged to have been bribed was not forthcoming, gave countenance to the charges. The proceedings occupied five days. It was proved by the witness.:a that nume rous private as well as public houses were en gaged for holding committees and for placard ing, and that the sum of 2001. was spent in distributing circulars to the electors, Mr. Roupell having determined to canvass every. one. At the previous e'ection only a small proportion of • the electors voted, the largest number that ever lolled for one candidate having been 4,000. Some of the many committee-men who acted for Mr. Run- Fell were also employed to canvass, and were paid 103. a day for their services ; but that fact was endeavoured to be concealed. The utmost, how ever, that the witnesses against the sitting mem ber seem to have proved was, a very lavish expenditure ; and the witness Tiedre, who had concealed himself for the purpose, as he said, of seeing which party would pay him best, when taken into custody and examined before the com mittee, did not make any disclosures affecting the sitting member, but only criminated himself. The points of most interest brought out during the proceedings were in the statements of Mr. Roupell himself, from whose evidence it appeared that the petition against him had been concocted for the purpose of inducing him to join the South London Railway. He stated that Mr. Rhodes, a hop-mer eiant in the Borough, and chairman of Mr. Wilkinson's committee, waited upon him, and "in great trepidation, apparently conscious that he was about to make an improper overture," said that if Mr. Roupell would join the South London Railway, and support it with his interett in Parliament, the petition against his re turn should be withdrawn. Mr. Rhodes was further stated to be a large shareholder in the proposed rail way, and that as the railway would pass through his drawing-room he would obtain large compensation. Mr. Roupell also stated that an offer to withdraw the petition was made to him by Mr. Cross, an elec tion agent, who represented that he came from Messrs. Harrison, the agents for the petitions, and that the petition would be withdrawn if Mr. Roupell would consent not to proceed against them for the costs. In Mr. Roupell's evidence he most positively as serted that a messenger came to him in the House, of Commons, with a message that a friend wanted to see him in the lobby, that he accordingly went out, and was accosted by Mr. Cross, who beckoned him into the messengat's rcom, and then made the offer as the agent of Messrs. Harrison. Mr. Cr3ss in his examination entirely denied having done so. The committee expressed their sense of the bearing of the evidence by reporting that Mr. Roupell had been duly elected, and that the petition against his return was frivolous and vexatious. The numbers at the close of the poll were—Mr. Roupell 9 318 Mr. Williams, 7,648 ; Mr. Wilkinson, 3,234. His Excellency the French Ambassador and the Countess de Persigny are expected in town, from Paris, on Saturday next. Their excellencies will shortly go to St. Leonarde-on-Sea for about six weeks. THE QUEEN AT THE CLOSE OF THE EXHIBITION.—It has already been announced that the closing of the Exhibition of Art Treasures, at Manchester, was'fixed to take place on the 15th October. The circulation in the newspapers, about the same time, of a statement that the Queen would visit Wentworth House, the seat of the Earl of Fitzwilliam, on the 15th October, not un naturally gave rise to a conjecture that there was some connection between the two events, and we believe that it may now be stated on good authority that her elejesty and the Prince Contort are expected to be pre sent at the closing of the exhibition, and will proceed from thence to Wentworth House the same evening. According to the last census return of the population of Vienna, that capital contains 579,457 souls, including 20,000 troops in garrison, .18,356 foreigners, and 210,262 Austrians who are not natives of Vienna. There are 441,161 Roman Catholics, 10,494 Protestants, of the ccmfe.e;on of Augburg, 1,293 Calvinists, 170 Anglicans, 15,116 Jews, 954 members of the Greek church, - and 33 Mus,blmans. The capital contains 8,793 houses with 89,441 suites of apartments. SOUTHAMPTON, Tuesday.—The new steam-ship Gre nada, built for the Peninsular and Oriental Company, and recently launched at Northam, is being prepared with all speed, 150 men being employed on her, to be ready to take out the Peninsular mails on Monday next, the 28th irst. The company's steamer Sultan, which was in readiness to leave with the mails of the 17th, but cuuntermanded shortly before that date, still remains in deck, awaiting orders, and it is currently rumoured that she will be employed in the transport service, as well as the Euxine, expected hero to-morrow with the mails from the Peninsular ports. EXTENSIVE FIRE AT NORTHFLEET.—GRAVESEND, Sept. 22. —Early this morning the, inhabitants of this place were aroused by the alarm of fire. It took place in the adjoining village of Nortbfleet, at a well-known waterside public-house called the Blue Anchor, in the occupation of Mr. Lewes, situate near - the mouth of the Creek. Some labourers discovered the fire raging in the back premises, and with difficulty the inmates were rescued, Mrs. Lewes having,only been recently confined. The house being built of wood was quickly enveloped in flame, lighting up the river and country for some dee tance. An adjoining tenement ignited, and soon shared a similar fate. A telegraphic message was sent to the Town-hall for the' en gines, and Mr S .Superintendent White at cute proceeded to the spot with a powerful force. The engine was got to work from the Creek, and rendered mu'h service in protecting the cement works of Messrs. Bevan and Knight, which at one time were .A. ro n y c e h d or ; t p b u e bl e ic o - n li t o e u n s t e s andplaced u inld greatbuilding adjoiningp e i were insured in the Globe. have been running through Chaniounix and the prin lTwheereßlducest The Prince of Wales and suite, eight persons in all, Prince selected the finest u day or two ago.

After all, the race is degenerating, and travellers take so much better care of themselves, and are enabled to do so by means of railroads and other modes of convey ance, that few remain to be saved in a tourtncnte of the mountains.—Letter front Bex. • VALERIAWATE OF AMMONIA IN NEUEALGIA--FOr some time back Dr. O'Connor has been prescribing, with success, the valerianate of ammon ia in oas It es of nura al lgia under his care, a t the Roe al Free Hesp ital been given in a few cases of e p ile p toid die ease.
