Assuming the report of DANIEL O'CoNNELL's death to be authentic, it becomes our sorrowful duty to consider the consequences that may result from the sudden departure of a man who has exercised such an extraordinary influence over the character of his age, and rendered himself the most conspicuous personage in the history of Ireland. His demise at any period must have been an important calamity, not only in the consideration of his fellow-country men, but in the estimation of the whole civilized world. At this lamentable crisis, when the Irish peasantry are dying by thousands from starvation and pestilence, when the solemn pageantry of the triduum is winding about their cathedrals, lamenting the woe s of Erin, and supplicating the balms of DIVINE Pao- TIDENCE ; at this particular moment, when the final desolation seems to have descended upon the island, the death of the great man whom Ireland has emphatically christened her Liberator becomes a matter of paramount and even supreme interest. Until the intelligence of the dissolution of O'CoNNELL at Genoa, on the evening of Saturday, the 15th ult. be fully corroborated, we shall continue sanguine that it may prove altogether unfounded. We shall hope—earnestly, and ardently, and un ceasingly hope—that accounts of such a disastrous nature have originated only in a cruel deception ; for the continued existence of the Irish Liberator has long remained the sole guarantee for the quietude and subordination of his compatriots. Should his career have actually terminated, it is im possible to conjecture the futurity reserved for Ireland ; it is impossible to say whether she will still preserve her obedience to the con stitution, or permit the ebullition of her long suppresed hostility ; whether, in short, the politicians who have seceded from Conciliation Hall, under the guidance of WILLIAM SMITH O'BRIEN, may not, by their ill-advised advocacy of physical force, goad the afflicted populace to some frightful act of desperation. Instead of the impassioned but pacific adjurations of O'CONNELL, the Irish will, in the event of his de mise, be stung to frenzy by the oratory of the Young Irelenders. Erin will revert, in thought it is true, to the days when DANIEL O'CONNELL wielded the sceptre of popularity. In the first ecstacy of her sorrow she will remember, as the Courrier Francais very beautifully exclaims, "that magic and inspired voice which she will hear no more; that ardent soul which animated an entire people with its breath ; that eloquence winged like a canticle, melancholy like a psalm, varied like a drama, and aro ugh which occasionally passed the disordered inspiration of ancient prophets!" Yes, the children of Ireland will mourn for the depar ture of theirpolitical chieftain, because, like the Univers, they regard him as "a great servant of GOD, a great ser vant of Man, a great and sincere apostle of Liberty." There will be lamentations in the sister island for the loss of him whom the Roman Catholic Count DE MORTALEMBERT addressed as " the most illus trious Roman Catholic layman in the world," for they cannot lose the recollection of the inestimable blessings they have received through his instrumentality, they cannot forget that it was DANIEL O'CONNELL who gained for them Roman Catholic emancipation, thereby earning for himself the almost sublime title of TEE LIBERATOR, and enrolling his name among the most eminent of the champions of civil and religious liberty. That must infallibly be the effect of such lamentable though dubious news as that which is xt present eliciting our observations, whenever it reaches Ireland properly confirmed and authen ticated. After the first paroxysm of Irish grief, however, it is very much to be dreaded that the sequel we have already intimated will follow. When the factious ranters of the Dublin Rotunda are apostrophizing the star-spangled banner of the United States as their only surety of redemption from the despotism of a Saxon Government; when an O'BRIEN has become the panegyrist of pikes, and a MEAottER the advocate of armed demonstrations ; when the Nation newspaper is uttering curses upon the union-jack, and stigmatizing the present advisers of our Most Gracious SOVEREIGN as the deliberate murderers of the people, it is surely no exaggerated anticipation that the death of the Liberator must place his country in the most imminent jeopardy. Hence, therefore, are we most solicitous that this dismal, but still doubtful, intelligence may prove al together unfounded. The life of DANIEL O'CONNELL ms been the talisman of peace to Ireland ; if that life oc- brought to an abrupt close, the talisman will be broken, and famine and pestilence will not long ,:ontinue the only curses of the peasantry. The Overland Mail from India, with intelligence from Bombay to the 15th of April, and from Calcutta to. the Bth ultimo, is unusually barren of news either from China or from our Eastern dominions. The commentaries of the local press have chiefly ranged itpon the death of Arise, KHAN, its immediate cause, the policy in which he was inclined to plunge ' - tefore his career was brought to a sudden and fatal ermination, and the probable political consequences of the same. Different as are most of the accounts, be inference appears very strong that the Wuzeer lcaS carried off by poison ; and though his name will Le. chiefly known to history as the infamous instigator of the assassination of Sir WILLIAM APNATIGHTEN, and the implacable enemy of British rule, every one ust recoil at the horrible means by which his doom la ,s been sealed. His hatred to the English con tinlied to the last : he left a considerable sum to be cl.pended in the resumption of hostilities, to which it i, said a large addition has already been made by others of his relatives. The DOST himself subse qU repaired to Jellalabad, and the impression set sins to be that he will continue to co-operate for the 2 maintenance of good faith between himself and the? authorities of the British Crown. Affairs th roughout the Punjaub are most remarkably tr. Lingua, so that the inhabitants themselves can sc ircely believe their country was se recently the arumia of severe martial conflicts. The Skekawattee co untry is suffering terribly from the predatory w. srfare pursued by the robber-chief DOONGHUIt Si tic on. Public apprehension has risen to such a height thvet merchants are afraid to purchase in the marts, It the emissaries of this redoubted robber, ho are spread in all directions, should seize the com a_ oclities during their conveyance to the consignees. G crvernment has given its aid to overcome these de wperadoes, who are being most actively followed th. 'l3 ughout the Rajawara districts by our military foi t es. usual the proceedings perplexity an ri mi t s h m e a N na i g z e a m m e 's nt dominions characterise the all co; it meted with its Government. The Goomsoor cot tritry has been in a great measure relieved from the disturbances which have so long disgraced it. The fanatical fury of the Goomsurs in 17ything relating to their superstitious rites is such that nothing short of a powerful for , combined with energetic counsels, can pr, :si Tye peace amongst these infatuated barbarians. Cc m mercial matters were not very flourishing, and the :markets much depressed. The subscriptions for the iScotch and Irish were most liberal. I 4 4 )tters from Athens of a t 1.0 ofth inst. stat e th a t Co . LE TTI had, in antici r elec :ti ons, removed almost all the mtnhgelcoipt the pro- municipal approaching authori ties, . and appointe d N omarchs throughout h u Opposition, vine es, , from his ovi,n partisans. r / h e Da t er hand, are urging the people to refuse the n e pa) , r q®l it of taxes , as t he Bud g et had not be en voted requinfs 4- comes from •a French bourc( • which, in matter.; •.!. to Greece, is net altc,g. , - ther trustworthy. The Prince Royal of Bavaria has left Athens for Munich. The Frankfort Journal of the 20th inst. publishes the following letter, dated Konigsberg, the lath inst. : " We have received at this moment accounts of dis turbances at Labisu. A merchant brig laden with wheat having sprung a leak, the captain sold the cargo at a moderate price to the neighbouring peasants. Almost at the same time some wholesale merchants arrived and proposed to purchase the entire cargo in bulk. The peasants opposed the sale, and a collision ensued in which one life was sacrificed." A letter dated Konigsberg, the 16th inst., states that 700 Jews of that city had agreed to transfer the celebration of their sabbath from Saturday to Sunday. This measure is- regarded as a remarkable proof of the tendency felt by the Jews to assimilate themselves to Christians in religious practices. On the 14th the Society of the Citizens of Altona, in the Duchy of Holstein, held a general assembly, at which they almost unanimously adopted a petition to the States, praying that Jews may enjoy the same civil and political rights as their Christian fel low- citizens. A letter, dated Constantinople, 7th instant, says— We read in a letter from Alexandria of the 9th : "Since his return to Alexandria his Highness the Viceroy has occupied himself almost exclusively with the interests of commerce. During his absence com plaints were addressed to the Minister of Commerce relative to the delays which merchants sustain in the descent of their goods. The complaints often remained without effect. His Highness, in order to put an end to these inconveniences, has just ordered that two railways shall be constructed on the principal places of embarka• tion, and that a greater number of boats shall be placed at the disposal of traders. A new departure to France of young Egyptians and Europeans will shortly take place. His Highness influenced by the sentiments of kindness towards the inhabitants of Egypt which characterise him, has deigned, on the demand of several European fami lies, to accord the favour of allowing their children to be educated in the Egyptian college at Paris. These young people will follow the same courses of lectures and make the same studies as the Egyptian pupils. Orders have been given to Ibrahim Pacba, who is at present at Cairo, to begin as soon as possible the three canals destined to irrigate Lower Egypt, viz., in Cherkhie, Behera, and Garbich. The steamer of to-day conveys to France M. Barrot, Consul-General of France in. Egypt, and his family. This gentleman is highly esteemed amongst us, for on all occasions he has given pr s oofs of high intelligence and energy. The French subjects here have manifested *ll claw sympathy to ,wards him, and in a. bancittet which took place on the 6tb, in the great Hotel d'Orient, nothing was spared to render homage the Consul-General of France. At the end of the repast M. Pastri gave a toast to the King and institutions. M. Barrot replied with great dignity, and his speech was frequently interrupted by applause. General Gallier Bey gave the health of M. Barrot, and M. Benedetti, Consul at Cairo, gave a toast to the pros perity of commerce. The fete, which was very brilliant, was prolonged to a late hour." Madrid journals of the 16th and 17th instant have arrived. Senor SALAMANCA had been dispatched by the QUEEN to the Prado, to endeavour to persuade the KING CONSORT to join the Royal party at Aranjuez, but had not succeeded in the object of his mission. The rumours of an intended modification in the Cabinet had subsided. Some of the Ministers have, it is said, advised that ESPARTERO should be created a senator, and have all his honours restored to him, on condition that he should remain abroad some little time longer. The Clamor Publico denies that ESPAR TERO has asked any favour of the Court, or of the Government. Seville has been freed from martial-law, tranquillity having been completely restored. General NOGUEEAS was expected daily at Cadiz from Gibraltar. King Louis PHILIPPE has made the QUEEN a present of eight magnificent Anglo-Arab horsea, General RoDIL arrived in Madrid on the 16th. Utters from Badajoz of the 11th state that the preparations of the army of observation for marching into Portugal were complete. General MANUEL CONCHA, however, who is to take the command of it, has not yet left Madrid. MADAM, BOLSA, MAY 17.—The Three per Cents. were done at 3411 A for cask ; the Four per Cents. at 18 3 4 ; the Five per Cents. at 19 ; the Debt without Interest at 5% ; and the Coupons at 16. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. In the Moniteur of Friday we find a royal ordon nance, regulating the postage of letters, journals, &c., forwarded by the trans-Atlantic steamers plying between Havre and New York. The postage of a single letter is fixed at 1 franc, besides the territorial postage of 10 centimes. Journals, periodicals, un bound books, pamphlets, catalogues, printed music, tkc., will pay 10 centimes per journal or sheet, be sides the territorial postage. In the papers of Saturday we find it announced that Mr. O ' CONNELL died at Genoa on Saturday, the I.sth instant. A letter from Turin of the 17th an nounces the melancholy event in these words :—" The most remarkable man of the age, DANIEL O'CON NELL, died at Genoa on Saturday." In another column we have given the remarks of some of the French papers on this subject, but although our Paris contemporaries seem inclined to give implicit belief to this announcement made by their Turin cor respondent, we still think that the rumour re quires confirmation, inasmuch as it is entirely at variance with the statement which appeared in the second edition of the Atlas of Saturday, and which said :—" We are in receipt of a private letter this morning from Florence, dated May 13th, by which we are enabled to set at rest the anxiety of Mr. O ' CONNELL ' S friends respecting the above report. It gives us pleasure to state that Mr. O ' CONNELL was then on his way to Rome, and apparently recovered from the attack which seized him at Genoa. The writer says— " Mr. O'Connell and his son, Mr. D. O'Connell, jun., with the Rev. Dr. Miley and his private physician, have arrived at Leghorn, from whence they proceed by the steamer to (2ivita Vecchia and Rome, where he is to remain a short time; alter which he comes to Florence to pass the summer months at a villa." If Mr. O ' CONNELL were at Leghorn en route for [tome on the 13th, it is somewhat singular that he should have afterwards gone back to Genoa, which he must have done, if it be true that he died in that city on the lith. Our hope is, that Mr.O'CoNNELL is at this moment alive. In the committee on the Budget, on Saturday, the Minister of Public Works consented to abandon several credits which had been asked for by his pre decessor. These reductions, however, are not suffi cient to propitiate the enemies of the Ministry. The Budget will undergo a most severe scrutiny in the Chamber, and as the enforcement of economy in the expenditure is a point on which progressive Conser- by the Chamber, and it is said that they are preparing , an insurrectionary movement, to be headed by Gene ral KALERGI. Thl6 last report, however, confirmation, as 1. The Emperor of RUSSIA has just published a ukase, declaring that from the present time to the end of 1851 a duty of 15 effective kopeks (60 centimes) per ton, shall be levied on the freight of all native and foreign ships leaving the port of Riga. The proceeds are destined to the improvement of the port. " The Porte has not yet adopted any measure against the Greek trade or the Greek subjects residing in its dominions. The neighbouring provinces are tranquil. No movement of troops has taken place on the fron tier. The armament of the fleet, however, is terminated, and in the course of about ten days it will be able to sail for the Mediterranean, under the command of the Capi-. tan Pasha. The disbanding of the soldiers of the regu lar army who have completed their five years' service commenced on Wednesday, and was concluded to-day. That operation was conducted with considerable pomp, amidst numerous salutes of artillery, and in presence of the Sultan, all the Ministers and high func tionaries of the State. To-morrow we are to have a grand ceremony in the arsenal on the occasion of the launching of two steam-frigates of 500 horse power. The account of the appointment of a Persian Ambassador to Paris is confirmed. The choice of the Cabinet of Teheran has fallen upon Mirza. Mehemet-Aly-Khan, who was to leave for France on the 2d of April, accompanied by M. Vidal, a dragoman of the French mission in Persia. It appears that, in con sequence of the unfriendly relations existing between Turkey and Persia, Mirza-Mehemet-Aly-Khan will not pass through Constantinople, and that he is to proceed through Bagdad, Messul, and Orfa, to Beyrout. Large bodies of troops were concentrated at Teheran, and re viewed by the Prince Royal and by the Sdhah in person. Orders had been issued to prepare several millions of rations of biscuit, and everything looked as if Persia was meditating some expedition. It was believed at Teheran that this army had been assembled on account of the apprehensions inspired to the Persian Govern moot by the concentration of the Turkish troops at Kharpout to reduce Beder-Khan-Bey and the other Kurdish chiefs. Aly-Khan is an important personage, who was charged with the direction of the department of foreign affairs since the death of Abboul-Hassan- Khan. He has already visited Europe. and occupied the post of Secretary of Legation at Vienna and St Petersburg." vatives and Legitimatists may unite with the Dynastic Opposition and the Renuhli-ans against the Ministry, it is_vot at. all that \l. ..1 hitii;elf in a minority. It was announc,d that a further change ii the Ca binet was not unlikely, and that M. DE SALVANDY would quit the Council to make way for a member of the party of M. DUCHATEL. Dispatches have been received from Admiral BRUAT, dated 17th February, announcing the com plete submission of Queen POMARE and the entire population of the Society Islands to the French Pro tectorate. The QUEEN was re-established at Ota heite in all her rights and authorities, which she is henceforth to exercise as the QUEEN recognised by the Government of the Protectorate. " The Committee of Instruction of the Court of Peers," says the, Gazette des Tribunaux, " Examined again on Friday morning M. Legrand, Under Secretary of State of the Minister of Public Works. The second part of the sitting was employed in completing the interrogatory of General Cubieres on different points, resulting either from the depositions of the different witnesses, or the interrogations of Messrs. Parmentier and Pellaprat. It is probable, from the turn the proceedings are taking, that the Committee will deem it advisable to place the accused in presence of each other, and to confront General Cubieres and M. Par mentier with M. Pellaprat, against whom the Chancellor, in the course of the instructions, issued a warrant to compel his attendance, which deprived M. Pellaprat of the quality of witness, in which he had at first appeared. The Committee is again to meet to-morrow (Saturday)." Don ENRIQUE and his wife have left Marseilles for Bayonne. The National confirms the statement made a few days since, that a correspondence between the Duc DE BOURDEAUX and one of the leaders of the Legiti•- matist party in Paris, had fallen into the hands of the police. The Journal des Dibats has the following on the affairs of Portugal : " By recent letters from Portugal, we learn that the Junta of Oporto has definitely refused the propositions of arrangement which the English Envoy, Colonel Wilde, conveyed to it on behalf of the Government of the Queen of Portugal and of the Government of the Queen of England. As long as the civil war, which has con tinued during several months in Portugal, did not di rectry menace the royal authority and the throne of the Queen Donna Maria, there was no reason to apply 'he stipulations of the treaty of the Quadruple Alliance; but, in consequence of the last events, we have reason to believe that these stipulations will be put in execution, and that measures will be concerted between th( Powers which signed the treaty for putting an end to the civil war and re-establishing tho authority 01 the Queen." M. JOSE ARMEE° DE Bn; the Mexican Consul at Marseilles, has sent in a protest to the Chamber of Commerce of that town, in the name of his Govern ment, against the decree of the American Government opening the trade of the several ports of Mexico which are, or may be, in possession of American troops to the trade of neutral nations, upon Customs duties differing from those fixed by the Mexican tariff, for the benefit of the Union, under the pretence of a war indemnity.

HAMIL We are authorised to state that there is no founda tion for the rumour circulated by some of the Madrid newspapers, that the Duke of Victoria had solicited per mission to return to Madrid. That this distinguished exile may, in the present state of his country and of ro laical parties, be invited to return, is, we think, highly probable ; but it is due to his own character that the pri vilege to return should have been unsolicited by himself. —Chronicle.

Of the American, 500 bales were taken for exportation, and 500 on speculation. There was an improved demand for Shares, with considerable buying at advancing prices. There are no later ship arrivals to-day from any quarter beyond the usual Continental mails, and the ex press with the Overland dispatches. The accounts from India are considered satisfactory in reference to political matters, but are not encouraging upon the subject of trade, which appears to have been dull. There is a most decided fall in wheat to day, viz., full 6s. per quarter, compared with Monday last, and ere long we trust it may be in our power to record another important retrograde movement that will test the strength of holders, and prove whether corn is really as scarce as pretended. Farmers may flatter themselves with the prospect of higher rates, and perhaps if tilt) , can hold on until just before the harvest they may get almost as good prices as now, bat in the interim there must be a fall. As we are glad to notice even tudividnal efforts to cheapen food, we give publicity to the following circular of a City baker, who, we trust, may succeed in setting a good example. This party states— " At a crisis like the present, it is the duty of every individual of the community, however high, or however low, to contribute and to bear his share of general dis tress now prevailing, partly from a failure of one portion of the food of the people, and partly from speculation, consequent upon that failure. lam willing to forego any advantage that might accrue to myself should a further advance take place in the price of Wheat, by not charging more than one shilling per 41b. loaf for one month (to my customers only), and if a dozen respect. able bakers would join me in my views, I feel convinced that we should materially influence the market; and, moreover, by that time (the 22d June) we could form a better idea of the forthcoming harvest, and the probable amount of importation. " N.B.—Bread might be economised greatly in families by the use of rice, plain boiled at dinner, a pound of which at threepence, would be enough for nine personsl it is not in much estimation, because it is generally not well prepared, but nothing is more simple, viz.—Have a gallon of water boiling—throw in one pound of whole rice—one ounce of salt, let it boil twenty minutes, turn it up into a sieve, let it drain for a few minutes, take a couple of forks and toss it up to make it light." There has not been a great deal of business doing in the Stock Market, but the effect of the decline in grain has been to raise Consols about I per cent., although a slight reaction has occurred since, consequent upon the sales of those who bought lower last week, and desire to realise profits. The arrangements for settling the account likewise influence prices, and it is still asserted r that the Bulls are the weakest party. The value of Con iols for transfer to-morrow is 871 to 87k, and for July about 88 to 88i. Exchequer-bills realise par to 2s. premium again.

During last week the arrivals of English Wheat up to our market, coastwise, were on the increase, and of very prime quality, but those of all other articles of home produce, including Flour, were extremely small. From Ireland upwards of 1,200 quarters of Wheat, and a few parcels of Oats and Flour, came to band, while the general receipts from Scotland were larger than for many previous weeks. From abroad upwards of 32,000 quarters of Wheat, 11,000 ditto of Barley, 9,000 ditto of Oats, and 9,000 barrels of Flour came to hand ; while the imports of other grain were on the whole good. Fresh up a very moderate quantity of Wheat of home produce came to hand, coastwise or by land carriage and sample. The show of that grain being larger than for sometime past, the attendance of buyers, both town and country, by no means large, the country markets coming considerably lower, the favourable state of the weather for the growing crops, and the absence of foreign orders, produced considerable heaviness in the English Wheat trade, and to effect sales the factors and holders were compelled to submit to a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last of from six TO SEVEN SHILLINGS PER QUARTER, and a large portion of the supply remained unsold at the close of the market. The large arrival of foreign Wheat, above noticed, in duced much caution on the part of the millers in effecting purchases. On the whole a good busi ness was passing in that article, at a decline in the currencies of last week of fully FIVE SHILLINGS PER QUARTER. Previously to the con clusion of business, some of the importers were offering their cargoes in bulk at a further reduction in value. We had a very small quantity of English Barley on offer ; but that of Foreign was tolerably good. Selected parcels of malting and grinding sold at barely previous rates ; while all other kinds were is to 2s per quarter cheaper, with a very heavy trade. The supply of Malt was very small, nevertheless, the Malt trade was in a very depressed state, and, to effect sales, is to 2s per quarter less money must have been accepted The quantity of Oats on offer was by no means large yet the Oat trade was in a very depressed state, and the currencies declined 6d to is per quarter. In Beans very little was doing, at Is to 2s per quarter less money. Peas of all kinds were heavy, and is qer quarter lower. Indian Corn was dull, but mostly held at full prices. Flour was a slow sale, at last Friday's prices.

This Committee met to-day at eleven o'clock; Lord Courtenay in the chair. GLASGOW, AIRDRIE, AND MONICLAND S JUNCTION (COWLAIRS, CENTRAL SUNG' TION, AND CARMYLE BRANCHES)• On the meeting of the Committee, Mr. ANDREWS proceeded to reply for the promoters of the Bill, minutely going over the evidence on both sides. He submitted that no case had bees made out for the rejection of the Bill. That through connexion was required no one could deny; and though several schemes for the purpose had been from time to time proposed, they had all been given up as objectionable, and the present one int brought forward as containing the greatest number ot advantages, with the fewest disadvantages. The damage to the Green would be very trifling, while a groat sana. tory improvement would be effected by the clearing away of the bad property which the construction of the line would necessitate. The room was then cleared, and after parties were admitted, The CHAIRMAN announced that the pream ble of the Glasgow, Airdrie, and Monkl an d s (Cowlairs Br anch) was proved, while th e C ow l a i rs an d Central Junction Branch was declared not proved.

They proceeded up t h e Middlesex shorel,u_ safety, but not without some difficulty in buffeting the to waves, wich were more usuall roug, owing the wind, h which was very than high, meeting h the tide. When nearly opposes the Red House they altered their cour and made air the Surrey shor e, where witness p se, . safety. Immediately after passing through the third or fourth arch of Battersea -bridge in into a current, the wind was blowing hard, and meeting the tide, they suddenly shipped a sea, the head of the boat dipped under, and she filled immediately. The through, the boat got were sitting up to their middle in water, when the de ceased, who thought that the boat m i g ht keep afloat with only one in her until assistance came, in the noblest manner said to witness, " You make fast to the boat; I can swim boldly." He then rose and sprang out of the boat. This action caused the boat to upset. Witness talitnswoasf notthe nCnitTletnhentha was thrown into the water, and, by dint of extraordi nary perseverance, contrived to regain a hold of the boat, which was then bottom upwards, and in that state b w y t ah t t ae w t r two hi c i ei ti l p . 1 inee steam boatswas became ec a and p m i another c e ke a d w u ar p e a not preserved his own life.

The flames were first discovered by a police-constable of th e P division raging in the premises belonging to Mr. NS!' ton, a carpenter and aeteen b i yd u builder, without situate t h e es uffic a ec t ee rs N ls, o a r nf t o h dr, a E si n t dshe.

The parish engine was soon at the scene of conflagration, and was with as little delay sidrebe b ec ame a n e r , . Newton fi.red fr oms as possible set to work. The flames, however, continued to travel with the greatest i mpetuos i ty, extending to the roof and upper floor of Mr. Tasker's property. Seei n g that the fire was increasing in violence, a mounted policeman was dispatched to the London fire-stations for additional assistance. The moment the- news was received in town, Mr. Henderson, the foreman of the D section of brigade, started with an engine to the spot, and so did Mr. Connerton with the %Vest of England engine. By the time, however, they reached the place, the whole of Mr. Newton's stock-in trade was destroyed, his furniture and other effects consumed, and the pre mises levelled with the ground, not so m uch a a s ske walls were left standing. The roof of Mr. seminary is also burned off, the top floor destroy a ed, and the remainder of the building seve r e l y dama g ed b y fire and water. Archbishop Tennyson's school has also re ceived some injury, but not to any great e xtent. Mr. Blake, the schoolmaster, however, has lost a dea l o f h is furniture by hasty removal, &c. Unfortunately Mr. Newton and Mr. Blake were uninsured ; but Mr. Tes . 'husker was insured in the London and Union Fire Offices. How or by what means the disaster occurred could not be ascertained.

The unfortunate man, Mitchell, was picked up in a perfectly insensible state, and taken at once to the Charing-cross Hospital, where Mr. Ste hall, the resident medical officer, ascertained that he had received a broken leg and a fearful wound on the forehead, besides a fracture of the skull, and other extensive injuries, so that, is fact, his case was hopeless from his admission, and death terminated his sufferings at two o'clock yesterday.(Sew day) afternoon. The lad, King, was conveyed into A neighbouring surgeon's, and from thence to his home. The occurrence was seen by a person named Thompso n ' who will give evidence at the inquest.

This' was the petition of the defendants, praying that a decree made in this cause might be set aside, on the ground that the Master's report, upon which the decree was made, was based upon erroneous information, b) which the defendants were charged 1661. 10s. more than they were liable for. The decree in question directed that the defendants should pay into court the rents of the Kendrick Charity, of which they were the trustees, derived from the house property in Fleet-street and Fetter-lane, and the grounds upon which the Master formed his report were two affidavits of an officer of defendant's, who now by affidavit denied the accuracy of his statements. Mr. KINDERSLEY and another Learned Gentleman appeared for the petitioners, and Mr. Horace Twiss re presented the Attorney-General. The petition was dismissed with costs. VICE-CHANCERY—(THIS DAY.) (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) BIRCH V. JOY.—JUDGMENT. At the sitting of the Court this morning his HONOUR delivered judgment in this case, which was distinguished by the multiplicity of its cross-pleadings. In order to reduce the whole to some degree of order, the Learned Judge disposed of the more extraneous matter which had been allowed to encumber the original cause, and then stated that it appeared to him that by the original bill of February, 1812, a Mr. Colquhoun had agreed to sell an en • cumbered estate for a sum to be taken as 95,5001., the purchase money to be paid in periodical instalments of 16,0001., 4,0001., 25,0001., and two of 16,5001., extending over a period , of six years, a mortgage beirg granted for the balance. A subsequent agree ment was entered into in October, 1813, and it was on this agreement that the present question turned. His Honour, after referring to the neglect which was exhibited by the principals and their solicitor in the framing of the agreement, proceeded to say that he did not see how it was legally possible for the Court to do other than to affirm this agreement, although he would personally have been glad if he could have come to any other conclusion. He should therefore affirm the Master's report, at the same time, he did not consider this a case in which he would be warranted in ruling that the defendant should pay the costs of the action. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir KNIGHT BRUCE.) IN RE SHEFFIELD AND DONCASTER RAILWAY COMPANY. His HONOUR made an order this morning upon peti tion presented by five of the directors of the company for the repayment out of Court of 22.0001. This sum was paid in under the Act 9 and 10 Viet., but the Bill having been withdrawn from the House of Commons, the order upon certificate from the Speaker was made as a matter of course. MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) William Johnson and John Hulbert, two well-dressed men, were brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with stealing a roll of silk, measuring 35} yards, the pro perty of Mr. Henry Absolom, tailor, No. 3, Hay market. Edward Weaver,•shopman to the prosecutor, stated that about eight o'clock this morning the prisoners came into his employer's shop and requested to be shown a waistcoat which was hanging in the window. The pri soner Johnson asked him if it would fit him, and if he would allow him to try it on. Witness allowed him to do so, but the prisoner trembled in such a manner that he could not button it, and asked witness to do so for him. Whilst he was buttoning the waistcoat he ob served the prisoner Hulbert standing against the counter, on which were several rolls of silk, apparently examin ing the texture. The prisoner Johnson then made some remarks about the price of the waistcoat, and said it watt too dear. Witness then noticed the prisoner Hulbert leave the shop in a hurried manner, with his coat drawn close round him. The other prisoner imme diately followed him. Directly they were gone witness went to the counter and missed a roll of silk, containing 351 yards. He went in pursuit, and came up with them in Suffolk street, and taxed them with the robbery, which they indignantly denied. Witness, however, being positive that they were the thieves, called a con stable and gave them in charge.

He tcok the prisoner into his house, when she admitted the robbery, and handed to him the purse containing the money ; on searching her pockets he found another purse and a quantity of silver. The prisoner cried, and so worked upon the lady's feelings as to induce her not to appear, but, for justice sake, he thought the prisoner ought not to be let off so eas ily, as no doubt the other purse and money found upon her were- the proceeds of some other robbery, therefore, appeared this morni ng t o press the charge.
