SUPPLEIVIENT TO THE ACitiegacri ititOarbi 6eneral ('J,Gmmercial Ab'itertiser. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1853 No. 1621.1 Standard Office, Two o'clock, p.m FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE TITHEBARN STREET RAILWAY STATION. TWO PERSONS KILLED. About eleven o'clock last night, William Parker, aged 22, guard of a luggage train on the East Lancashire Rail way, residing in Tatlock-street, and Mrs. Mary Hurst, aged 32, wife of Mr. Henry Hurst, veterinary surgeon, No. 1, Juvenal-street, met with their deaths in a most dreadful manner. George Glaister, of Dover-street, states that he was a passenger by the luggage train from Orms kirk, accompanied by Mrs. Hurst and William Parker, the guard; and when the train arrived at the Great Howard-street terminus, they all left the luggage van, and were proceeding along the line between the rails of the main line towards Tithebarn-street, when the engine Hurricane, driven by Henry Bullfield, came behind them unobserved, and ran over Parker and Mrs. Hurst, killing them on the spot. ;TRIC TELEGRAPH THE EASTERN WAR. (From the Times.) VIENNA, MONDAY.—It is credibly reported that a serious conflict has taken place between the Servians and the Turks near Ushitza, on the Servo-Bosnian frontier. The Turks were repulsed. The loss of both parties was estimated at 500 men. CONSTA.NTINOPLE, Nov. 16.—The French Military Envoy has made his first official appearance at the Divan. The greatest excitement prevails in Affghanistan. Dost Mahomed has declared to the Shah of Persia that the Affghans are at war with the Russians, that he means to attack them in the direction of Chervan, and that he is resolved to march through the Persian dominions, with the Shah's consent. The Khan of Bokhara has been killed by a band of rioters mostly Affghans. He is succeeded by his late Grand Vizier, an Affghan prince. A correspondent, under date Vienna, Nov. 24, writes : 1"o armistice has been concluded, but hostilities are vir '4allY sus ended on the Danube. News of the retreat of the T.. fl fwv ,rita P from Kalafat to Widdin is confirmed. Only men remained at Kalafat. Belgrade letters state that the difficulties between the Porte and Servia are settled. The Turks are to garrison the cities on the borders, and a contingent of 12,000 men will be permitt e d t o join ' the army on the Danube. The Chronicle's Vienna correspondent telegraphs that all the reports of the Russians crossing the Danube are unfounded. The Turks are fortified at Kalafat-24,000 strong. The Augsburg Gazette has news from Poland of the approaching recal of the Russian Ministers at Paris and London. The Times' money article says : "It was understood'in the city on Monday that a treaty had been arranged between England and France, guaranteeing Turkey against any aggression on the part of Russia, and . that it remains for Prussia and Austria to join therein if they think fit." The Times states in a leading article that there is little reason to doubt that the principal portions of the cam paign have hitherto been uniformly creditable to the Turks, and that they appear to have been more particu larly successful in the Circassian country ; but it does not see that we are approaching any nearer to the evacuation of the Principalities ant the withdrawal of the Russian demands. The aggression of Russia must be resisted. The authority of public law must be vindicated, and the rights of Europe must be secured ; but these objects are far mare likely to be attained by negociations con ducted with the consent of Europe, than by the engage ment of any particular powers in hostilities of which it is impossible to predict the end. EXPORT OF GOLD. —A further sum of £200,000 in gold will be sent this day (Tuesday) to Rotterdam, on account of the Russian Government. It is not expected that any more remittances of large amounts will be made by pri vate firms. INDIA AND CHINA [GRATIS. The letters have arrived. Colonel Mechinson's murderer has been executed. The frontier was comparatively tran quil. There is nothing new from Burmah. CALCUTTA, OCT. 18.—The prospects of the cotton goods market had improved ; all fears of bad crops have been dispelled. Freights lower, more ships offering. This, with encouraging advices of colonial produce received by the Bombay, will give impulse to exports. The probable extent of the indigo crop is estimated at 105 to 108,000. BOMBAY.—Money easy. Import business very limited. Greater activity is expected after the holidays than has of late existed. Metals steady ; cotton lower. Freights, £2 12s. for vessels commencing loading, and £2 15s. for. vessels nearly ready for sailing to London and Liverpool. Shanghai had been taken almost without resistance on the 7th Sept., and risings were expected in other places in the district. The rebels hold Amoy. Canton was threatened, and will probably change hands before the despatch of the next mail. The Tartar invasion of China begins to be talked of. H.M. steamer Hermes was ordered to bring down the survivors of the wrecked ship Lady Evelyn, bound to California. There were 26 Chinese and 6 European ff About 240 perished. Trade in China still depressed. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—This DAY.
