An act of self destruction, accompanied by three attempts to destroy a rectory-house by fire, took place in the village of Bradford Peverell, about two miles from Dorchester, on Saturday last Just before six o'clock that morning the deceased, tamed William Howe, and serving-man to the Rev. Blackstone Williams, Rector of Bradford Peverell, and high sheriff's chaplain, was heard to go up to his room by one of the servants, and shortly afterwards she remarked a singular smell of smoke. On descending she found the lower part of the rectory and the s'a'rcaee were on fire, and at once communicated with her master. The Rev. Mr. Williams immediately ran to the nursery and saved his children, and the household was almost instantly astir. It was observed, however, that Howe was not abou', and Mr Williams thereepon went to his room, and after getting no reply to repeated calls', the rev. gentleman entered de ceased's bed-room, and found the unfortunate man lyirg motionless on the floor, with his face downwards, and a discharged gun beneath him. He called to a man named Bartlett to assist Howe, and then went to rescue Mrs. Williams, who, owing to the heat of the staircase, and the smoke, was hardly able to effect an escaee. Mr. Williams then returned to deceased's room, and found him attempt ing to cut his throat with a razor, and the rev. gentleman managed to get posseseion of ihe razor, and to throw it away, when II )wa fell ueon the floor as if dead. It was found that by means of Leaps of candle ends, straw, empty casks, and portions of wall beirg bared to the lath, preptrations which must have occupied hours for their consummation, the hcuse was in a very danger ous condition. However, the Rev. Mr. Williams made his way again to deceased's room, when he found the man on his feet, hacking at his throat with another raz: la the ex etence of which was unknown to the rev. gen lemen, and the man bleeding prefusely, almost im mediately after expir;ng. No cause for th committal of these ceeds has peen assigned. Howe always bore a good character for honesty and attention to Lis duties, and up to bedtime the neevious night had, as usuel, waited upon hs master. 'I he appearance of deceased's bed, ht,werer. the clothes of which were undisturbed, showed that he had not been to bed all night, and ho was dressed as on the preceding evening. Although no report (f fire arms was heard by any of ha inmates of the rectory, it is believed death ensued from bullets which had penetrated the bedy. The unfortunate man, at his own le quest, was just on the point of leaving Mr Williams's service, whence he intended to enter the police force at Bristol, and afterwards to get married. An inquest was held the same day before the district corener, Mr. Giles Symonds, and the jury returned a verdict of felo de se. The body was interred at midnight.

In 1853 the whol7 number of Indians was estimated at 20,100. In 1856 the number, fr. m fficial accounts, did rot exceed 12,000. Some 1,500 Lichens t 11 the reservation of the clear fork of the Brazos, as t make good crops ; 3,000 semi-civi ized C e tke, Del iwattes, end Cherokees , a-e in Eastern Texse ; in North, 1,000 Wesbitas and Waeos. There are 3,000 Camauches, 1,000 Lipari-, and 4,000 of all other stragglers CATTLE. FROM THE NORTH OF EUROPE.—The grits importations of cat le i.ito Lowestoft froM the north of Europe auseunted in the week ending the 20th inst. to 945 oxen an i ratl er mere than 1,1100 sheer and lambs. The stock was riceieed from the asull pens, Tanning, Husum, and F eel( rickstatla On Friday the North of Europe Steam Navigetion Company's steamer City of Norwich, Captain Oliver, arrived with 171 beasts and 100 shi ep, and the Tot. nine. Captain Russell, with 203 beasts and 531 sheep A telegraphie despatch rev ived from Lowestoft on Saturday also announces the arrival of the Cumberland with 129 betas's and 33 sheep. This env, s a total for the prelent week of 563 beasts a- d 664 sheep, at d a fourth steamer will probably bring a further consignment. The stock has bsea forwarded, as usu 11, to the metropolis. STAIR FEDWIE.ADS FOR TPE FGYPTIAN COVEDNMENT.— A megnificent electre-silver state bedstead, manufactured by Messrs. Charles Willi ems and Co., of 223, Oxford street, is now on view at Willie's Rooms, King-street, St. James's. The bedstead is one of six which were (Men d by the late Viceroy Abbas Pasha, in contemplation of the marriage of his son to the daughter of the late Sultan of Egypt. Three of the bedsteads are stationer, , end the other three moveable, or, as they are celled, camp bedsteaels, which admit of being taken to pieces and deposited in a case of very small di mens i ons. Th e d i s i gn has no pre tensions to originality, Mr. Williams admi ting with very creditable c ndeur that he derived the idea frem the celebrated carved wooden bedstead by a Belgian artisan, which was so much admired in the Exhibition of 1851. The dimensions of the bedsteads are as follows : The height 13ft., the ngth 7f'. 6in., and the width sft. ; the smallness in the latter respect was explained by Mr. Wiltian s saying that in the East it is not customary to seep two in a bed. The head of the bed stead is composed of elegant polished pierced work oat of the sclid metal, and is surmounted by a rich Italian foliage. the foot 1 - eautifully harmonises in character with the head, and is enriched on the outer side by a large arabesque shell in bold relief. The sides are composed of rich Italian scroll-work, the open work being shown ep by crimson velvet linirg. The bate consists of highly polished Guilloche ornament, and the entire work is sur mounted by an elegant arched canopy, supported by four light, trilliently polished pillars. The whole presents a very hiautifel piece of fairy-like workmanship, and rail eta great credit en the ingenuity and taste or the arlist. The travelling bedsteads vary in some resp-c's in their de sign, but these are not yet completel. We under stend that the price of the whole of the articles will not be less than £lO,OOO. Hugh Thurban, an agent of the Egyptian government has, with his family, inspected tLe work, and has expressed himself much gra tified at the a xcellert manner in which it has been execu ted. Messrs Williams and Co. have long been honoured by the orders of the Egypttan government, and some few years age executed fur the late Paella feur magnificent silver electro-plated candelabra, eighteen feet in height, with twenty-four lights each. It was observable that throughout the whole of the design for this splendid piece of art, tbere was rot a single allegorical figure, or heraldic device introduced. This reminds us that many years ago, whon a splendid service of porcelain was specially manufactured for the then Viceroy of Egypt, the artist having embellished his work by various mythological subjects, the whole service was rejected, and returned upon the hands of the mskette Mr. Williams, upon this matter being pointed out to him, said he bad been informed by high authority that all such embellishments were contrary to the " custom" of the Emiyptians. CONEXCRATION OF THE BISHOP OF SIERRA ZONE. — Monday being St. Matthews' Day, was apse ted for the cons. cralon of the Rev. John Bawer', 1 L.D , of Trinity College, Dublin, Rector of Arton Longville, Huntingdon- Aire, who has ken appointed by the Crowe to the bishopric of Sierra Lsose, re.nderectracant by the death of the Rev. Dr. J. W. Weeks. At eleven o'cl-ck a pro cession, consisting of the Archbishop- of Canterbury, the Bishop of Peterborough, the Bishop of Victoria, Dr. Bowen, the Bishop designate, Mr. Francis Hart Dyke, her Majesty's proctor. Mr. Felix Knyvetf, the Archbishop's secretary, the Rev. John Thomas, L.0.L., his Grace's chaplain, and Mr. James Barker, the apparitor, en tered the chapel, and the archbishop and bishops took. their seats within the rails of the communion table: Prayers were read by the archbishop's chaplain (nir. Thomas), and the sermon was preached by the Rev. Chas. B. Gribble, Al A , incumbent of St. Paul's church, Waite chapel, who selected for his text the Ist verse of the 2nd Epistle of S'. Paul to Timothy—" Thou, therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus." s'.t the close of the sermon the Bishops of Peterborough and Victoria presented the Bishop Designate (who was habited in his rocket) to the Arclibis'iop, and the Queen's mandate for the consecration was read by Mr. Francis Hart Dyke, her Majesty's proctor. After the usual preliminaries had been gone through, Dr. Bowen retired, and soon afterwards re-appeared in the full episcopal habit. He knelt at the rails of the communion table, when the Archbishop and the Bishops present placed their hands upon his h'ad. Then handing the new Bishop a Bible, the Archbishop saii :—" Give heed unto reading, exhorta tion, and doetfine. Think upon the things contained in this book. Be diligent in them, that the increase coming thereby may be made manifest unto all men. Tike heed unto thys.lf and to doctrine, and be diligent in doing them, for by so doing them shalt th'u both save thyself and them that hear thee. Be to the Ink of Christ a shepherd, not a wolf ; feed them, devour them not. Hold tip the weak, heal the sick, bind np the broken, bring again the outcasts, seek tae lost. Be so merciful that you he not too remiss. So mitester discipline that you forget not mercy, that when the Chief Shepherd snail appear, you may receive the never-fading erown of glory, through Jesus elitist our Lord. Amen." The new Bishop of Sierra Leone parsed several Tears of his early life in the Caradas, and bas also visited several countries in the East. He is a man of independent fortune. His seat is Milton House, Pembrokeshire, where he has considerable property. He is unmarried, and from his former habits and strong physical powers, added to his sterling worth, and evangelical piety, it would have been difficult to select one more fitted in every way for the important post he is ceded upon to fill in nursing the infant churches in Western Africa. . At LEWIS & COMPANY'S, Ranelagh-street. BOYS are CLOTHED from the Ages of Six to Twenty Years. A letter in the Times of yesterday contains the follow ing :—" In your paper of Wednesday, the 16th of July, is an extract from the Melbourne Argus, g . ving an account of a hearing at the Williamstown Police court, resulting in a fine of £233 is 6d, or, in defaalt of payment, three months' imprisonment, imposed on the master of the ship War spirit, from Liverp)ol, for not having a sufficient supply of water on board his ship to allow of his issuing the daily quantity required by the Passer gers' Act— viz , three quarts of pure water to each person, exchasive of that used. for cooking purposes. Inca defence was "that the casks had leaked, and that the passengers were necessarily put on short allowance on the 59th day of the voyage, and that in doing this the cap'ain had e x e r ci se d a sound discretion ; also, that he condensed salt water to the amount of 50 gallons a day, which the passengers might have used, but disliked it, as testis.. of salt and lead, and wo u ld no t use it, although it had been pronounced by the doctor to be wholesome." '1 his decisi on ma y b e very useful to the public, but it also raises a very important question as to the comfort of our troops g 'ing out in the noble merchant ships which the lion. Fast India Company have hired for them upon tha consent cf Government to allow the Admiralty to refuse to carry British troops—th!s, by tl,e way, after the Royal Albert for England and the Napoleon fir France were employed to carry each 1,000 men to Belaklava in 1855. I have been assured by a captain of a floe screw steamer that, after leaving the Channel, water enough was distilled on board his vessel to supply the whole ship's company during her voyage to the Cape, and this was used, while that in the casks remained untouched ; sled that in a similar ship the apparatus for condensing sea water was wholly neglected. It can be fitted at a small cost to sailing vessels or to screw or paddle steamers, the product of course being in propor tion to the firs used, but in all cases it may be consider able. Sir Edward Parry once told me, on the flttinc , of the Ajax and Blenheim blockehips with screw propellers. that the diminution of the capacity to carry water in hose ships, by reason of the space occupied by the engines, would be counterbalanced by the ficility of condensing water. Now, referrirg to the case cited, I must add that it is one thing to condense water, another to make it drinkable. As in the process of condensing or distillation the water is rol bed of its oxygen, it becomes necessary to aerate it, and this may he effected by the very simple process of passing it two or three times through a cask pierced with small holes, or a coarse seive, care being taken that while it is running it is exposed to the free action of the air. The importance of alditional water on a long voyage across a line to our soldiers is very great. Is mere neligence to deprive them of it.; or is the command ing officer of the troops to be blameless if he emit to instruct his men how to prepare the water when it has been served out to them? I am here reminded of the gross neglect of cookery by soldiers which I have seen on board transports. Soldiers know nothing about preparing salt beef or pork in a ship's galley. They have a seperate kitchen, and are not instructed by the sailors I once saw 300 men endeavour jug to est the hardest possible salt meat and dumplings on board the—, in the Black Sea. The soldier's friend was oa board and asked M. Soler to suggest a remedy, and the next day both were excellent ; the difference arose from the senior sergeant having had the beef in the boiler one hour the first day and eight the second. There were half a dozen officers on board, bat it was not etiquette for them to interfere with their men's dinner. The salt meat for the army is contracted for (as for the navy) to remain serviceable for three years, and before it can be made into nutritious and wholesome meat for co kieg it has to be washed, soaked, or parboiled (and if it goes through all these processes the better). Unless the superfluous reit is thus got rid of our soldiers cannot arrive in health in India, even though they have the advantage on ship-board of that lemon juice which vas denied them in the Crimes, bemuse it had gone into the stores of the Medical De partment instead of those of the Ccmmissariat. One simple method of getting rid of the salt is to place the beef lightly in an empty cask, the bottom of which has been bored full of small holes, and then to allow sea water continuously baled or pumped into it for some hours to percolate through the cask. When this is done by sailors the cask is lashed in the chains or rigging, so as to keep the decks clean.

AN ADVENTURE IN THE ALPS.—GENOA, SEPT. " And now I mu-t tell you how it was quite on the cards that you might Lever have seen me again, except. in the Canvent Morgue, which would have been a dull thing. I got to Orsieres about three, and as I could not stop in that miserable place, although I knew it was late, I got a mule, with a man, to start at ones for the convent. The weather was coming on veer, but nothing out of the way, so I went on, leaving Favret to follow with my luggage on his mule, and the m .n. 'You know I am well up in the locality. At St. Pierre the rain began, and I wrs so cold with riding that I palled up at the canteen (the last habitation tp the pass); and got some brandy ; and while I was there the man cone up, leaving Favret behind to get some dinner and rest his male, which had come with us all the way from the Tote Noire that day. The man, the mete, and I left the canteen about half-past 6, and dark and dreary eno-gh the route 'coked. About half-past 7 we arrived at the first deadhouse—not the Morgue, but the refuge—and then a storm came on such ac I had never before witnes - era. It row got pitch dark, but the lightning was so incessant, that we traced the way between us pretty well until, in another half hoar, above Pont d'Hudri, a den•e fog came on, wi:h a cutting sleet, and the rain came down as if in one sheet. The mule got frightened and turned round, but we got her head to wind' again, until in another quarter of an hour we got on a sheet of snow, aml neither the man nor I could make out the track, and the water was r,ging and lashing and roaring apparently on every side of ' us, hut we could see nothing et apt in the refracting of the light from the snow. The man was a famous fellow. He said, 'We can't stop here, and we can't go. on;' bat, if you will mind the mule, I will try and get to the convent.' This was a dreary alternative, but I stuck my baton in the enow, tied the mule to it, and then got in her shelter, as he crunched over a. few feet of snow on his way, and then I heard him no more. I did not mind for the first ten minutes or a quarter of an hour, but I soon got fearfully cold, and I did not dare move, not knowing what was on either side of me ,• and when half an hour had passed and I was still there I certainly thought it was a bad business. I shouted as loud as I could, but my voice was nothing in the wind; and you can understand, in a si nation like that, what horrible things came into my mind ; and I thought it would be so hard for me to be lrot there who knew every stone almost on the pass. I had been wet through one hour before, but that was nothing; but there was a sack of corn on the mule, and I was Suet going to cut this down and open it to put over when I thought I heard the dogs. I listened in agony for five minutes, but the wind came roaring on again, and I was all but done as I saw a light dancing up above and before me. This came on, and I gave a shout, which was answerei ' and in a few minutes more the man reached me. We now found we were cif the track, but we soon got on it again, and the revulsion of feeling was so great that how the rest of the way was accomplished np to the convent I don't know. They were all in great excitement there. Meilleu was out and met me at the, door. They did not know it was 1, only that there was a traveller in danger ; and when I staggered dripping, and frozen reed chattering into the room, who should be there but —, of the Garrick, and youeg ? But I could not say much to any of them, so Meilleu took me into a hot air room, and dried me, and found me some fresh things, and after a time got some life into me, but I could not eat any supper. I did not make a. " to-do" about it, but I was very gra'eful when I got to bed. I should add that I sent the can and the " marronier" to look after Venance, and they found him an hour afterwards in the same lock, at the same place. It was cheerful to hear that the snow, where we bad lost the route, was that of an ava lanche of last year, which came down from Mont Mort and killed two men. I saw them next morning in the Morgue, and winced as I looked at them. The poor fellows were found close together. I also heard afterwards that this storm (Thursday night, September 9 ) was one of the wildest known for years. Above Verret, in the valley of Aorta, the water broke and carried away a village, or rather hamlet, at the time I was on the mountain, so the diligence could not go from Aoata to Turin, and we were the first who crossed on Saturday, with men to carry our luggage. Nineteen of the poor people had been found, and were laid out in the church, all smashed and drowned ; but the others were under the grit and boulders, some of which were six or eight feet square."

The fine weather has had the effect of producing extreme dullness in the Breadstuff Trade, and at the country markets held to-day, a sensible decline occurred in the prices of Wheat and Flour. At our own market old Wheat declined in value 41 per bushel; new Irish and Scotch were in large supply, and, though offered at a. reduction of 61 to 81 per 701bs from the currencies of Tuesday last, sales in either were scarcely practicable. Flour, notwithstanding the small stocks, suffered a decline of 61 per barrel and is per sack on the weak. Oats : Old, for provender use, being in limited compass, commanded full prices. New, quiet, and, if anything, rather easier. Egyptian Beans had a steady consumptive inquiry, at extreme prices. Barley without change. Indian Corn : Mixed and Yellow, were bought upon sornwhat easier terms ; the value of White remained unaltered. At the meeting of the British Seam Fisheries Company, yesterday, it was agreed to wind up the company, as likely to he unprofitable. The report of Captain Galton to the Board of Trade on the railways of the United Kingdom for 1858 has just been issued, and is a. very .clear and satisfactory document, calculated-, on the whole to strengthen the hope that, with improved manage ment, the recovery in the value of this description of property will be steady and continuous, although it must be slow. Notwithstanding that the pre ferential and loan capital constituted 43 , per cent> of the whole of the railway capital raised to the end of 1856%. and that the interest payable on this, owing to the state of the money market, was higher than during any former period, the per centage having been 5 08 against an average of 4 . .72 for the preceding seven years, the average rate of dividend available for the ordinary share capital was 3.12 per cent., being equal to that of 1855, and considerably higher than the average of the preceding seven years, which was 2.59. In 1854, however, the rate was as high as 3.39. Of the total 308;775 1 894/. now embarked in railways, 77,359,4101. has been raised by loans, 57,057,1711. by preference shares, and 174,359,3C41: by ordinary share capital. This represents an expenditure of 35,4591. per mile, the cost of the English lines haring been 40,2881. per mile, of the Scotch 27,7501., and of the Irish 14,8081. The period of extravagant outlay, however, was prior to 1849, the average cost of lines constructed since that period having been only 9,5681: per mile. The working expense:last year experienced an increase of l per cent. in Englaud, and a diminution of 2 per cent. in geotland and Ireland, the average being 47 per scent. as oompared with 48 per cent. in /855. The development of the-goods traffic-has gone on upon, a rapid ratio, and its proportion to the passenger traffic is now 53 to 47 per cent. whereas eight years ago it wl:3 only 44 to 56 per cent. The total of passengers conveyed in 1856 was 129,347,592, being an increase of 10,752,457 on the previous year;. and the number conveyed per mile of railway open was. 15,213 against 14,503 in 1855, the receipts per mile being 1,1941. against 1,1641: Only one traveller in 16.168,449 has, been killed, and one in 438 ; 370 in jured, showing a degree of safety greater than in any year since 185 L The general uffects of the raising or lowering of fares are detailed, and the result appears to be against the policy of high clia;;;. The length of line open, for traffic in the United Kingdom on the 30th of June, 18: , 6„ %as 8,506, miles, and the persons employed amounted to 102,117, or ]2 per mile, There were also 963 miles in course of construotion at that period, of which about 208 were opened before the end of the year. The whole are double lines, excepting 2,511 miles. Between 4,000 and 5„000 miles authorized by Par liament, remain to be constructed. The total will then be 13,173 miles—namely, 0,700 in England and Wales, 1,647 in Scotland, and 1,826 in Ireland. The number of Acts passed in the session of 1856 was 59, authorising a length of line of 322 wiles at a cost of £6,784426.
