THE NORTHERN r IIMES---LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY, DECEMBER MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Thursday Evening. The sales of Cotton to-day were only 2,500 bales, including 500 on speculation and for export. Prices were rather in the buyer's favour, being now quoted at a decline of /d per lb. on Tuesday's quotations. The following is a copy of the circular issued by the " liquidators" of the Borough Bank, announc ing to the shareholders the call upon them of £5 per share. Boriugh Bank, Liverpool, Dec. 711, 1857. You are aware that the creditors of this bank insisted, as the chief basis of the settlement they agreed to, "that calls, aiwoanting to £5 per share, shall be made on the shareholders, as soon as the law will permit, and shall be enforced with all reasonable speed." In accordance with the obligations thus imposed upon us, and by virtue of the power vested in us by the acts of Parliament, under which we are appointed, we have accordingly this day made a call of £5 a share, by an order, of which a copy is annexed. The call is debited to your account, and the amount due from - jou, on the balance of your account with the Bank, is , which, according to the resolutions of the general meeting of the 12th November,. will bear interest as between you and the other shareholders, at the rate of £7 per cent., per annum, from this day, unless the same shall be paid on or before the day named in the order. Tee amount will be legally recoverable from you on that day, and it will be our duty to eutorce the payment of it, with " all reasonable speed." At the same time, we are most anxious to make the performance of this duty as little onerous to the shareholders as possible, and we shall be obliged by your informing us, within a week from this time, what will be the earliest day on which you will be prepared to make the payment required of you.—We are, your obedient servants,—Joshua Dixon, John B. Brancker, Harmood W. Banner, J. Serjeants.n, Philip Rawson.

The chief change has been in Grand 'Trunks, which declined on the announcement that the dividend will not be paid in cash, but in bonds, no effect was caused on prices. The following were the transactions:-Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire, 65/ ; Blackburn, 91; East Lancashire, 884.; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 904 ; Liverpool, Crosby and Southport, 171 ; London and North Western, 94, 931, 94, 944, 934 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, 364, 36 ; Midland, 851, 854.; Dover's, 19 1-16, 191; Grand Trunk of Canada, 9 9-16, 91, 91, 91; Royal Insurance, 31 p.

The Imports of Specie continue on a pretty large scale. To-day we have to announce the arrival of the Essex from Melbourne, wtth specie valued at 421,800. This, taken in conjunction with the fact that the position of the Bank of England must be in a much more satisfactory position than last week, has created a buoyant feeling in the Funds, notwithstanding the fact that the Chancellor of the Exchequer stated, in the House Commons, last night, that Parliament may be called upon to render some temporary assietauce to the Indian Treasury. As already stated, the Market for the Public Funds and Securities opened with buoyancy. Con sols for the Bth January were first marked 914 to 911. The Three per Cent Redaced have been dealt in at 91 to 914 ; the New Three per Cents, at 904 to 911; Bank Stock, at 217 to 2174 ; India Stock at 219 ; Exchequer Bills, at 2i discount to 2s prem ; Exchequer Bonds, 1858, at 984 to 991; do. 1859, at 98 and 971. The closing Fices for Consols for the Account were 911 to 91a. The London Railway Share Market was quite inactive to-day, but little business being done, and prices with difficulty supported. The following were the closing paces :-Caledonians, 774 ; Eastern Counties, 10 ,3-16, 10 15-16 ; East Lan cashire, 88, 90 ; Grea, Northern, 93, 94; Do.

From Hamburgh the commercial accounts con tinue of a most unfavourable character. The total number i f failures up to the Bth inst. was 187. The Golernment institution intended only as a resource for the most wants has proved a failure, as the want of confidence was so great that every ono pushed for supplies. At Amsterdam and Paris the exchanges on Lon don ire rather less favourable. At Paris, on Tueslay, the exchange on London was quoted at 25.33 to 40 for short, and 24.70 to 75 for three months' paper; at Amsterdam, 11.85 (offered) for shot ; and at Berlin, 6.17. The advices of nine days' later date from Cal cutta report a decided improvement in the position of the Bank of Bengal, and in the Money Market generally, but no advance in Government Securities. Exchange on London was quoted 2s. 2fd. for first class bills at six months' sight. This is a trifle more favourable, the previous quotation having been 2s. 2Zd. • The interest is advertised in due course on the Preference Bonds and Debentures of the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada. The half-yearly interest at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum is also adver tised on the consolidated stock, but is to be paid in the 7 par cent. debentures of the company, having 15 years to run, and bearing interest from the Ist January next• IRISH PERSEVERANCE.--A signal proof of what may be achieved by individual industry and perseverance was afforded, last evening, in the launch of a new and handsome schooner, nearly 200 tons burthen, built solely by a working shipcarpenter, named Patrick Gaynor, who resides on Lock-quay. Daily for the past twelve mouths he has worked at the building of the ship, from early morn till late at night, and no hands but his own performed any part of the work. Last evening the vessel was sufficiently forward to be launched; and having been christened the John, the launching apparatus was successfully put in motion, and the ship gracefully glided into her future element amid the cheers of the assembled spectators.—Limerick Chronicle of Wednesday. BOY'S CLOTHING MADE WITH GREAT TASTE AT LEWIS mad COMPANY'S, Ranolagh-street. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-YESTERDAY. LIVERPOOL. BEFORE MR. MANSFIELD. CAUTION TO PISTOL SHOOTERS.—The dangerous pr . ar ,4tze of discharging pistols and other dead l y weapons • , e the street and !ces where life is jeopardised, has le - frequent, hat some „rarYiedleiiios time ego M r. Mansfield r' in , ention of punishing such persons as were 1- dronght before leim and convicted of the offence, in a as tious manner. Yesterday morning, two very well dres xee yovng men, who gave the names of Richard Davidson ~ 3 dJohnuan, were brought up by officers 693 and 771, e4earged with the fat- P e daved that about half-past lowing serious offence. It ap P:efeete.,rs were in Parliament tfih; e d e 3, the w hperreev theyus d ay the , were evgsged at what was celled "The shop a eh. W ear i n g, a ch e mist, is the - tiriserters were so engaged, and from pi tp oolopposite practice." vv h i r e one of th shots fit.ed, the ball entered a large squ a re o f plate glass e. In the w'Andow, smashing it to pieces, and passing eose by Mr. Wearing's head, and striking the opposite wall. Mr. Wearing then ran cut and saw the prisoners nenniog away ; he called the pelice-officers, and they followed and (arrested the prisoners. Several persons had narrow escapes from the bullets fired by the prisoners. The officers found four double barrel rifled pistols, and a consider able quantity of powder and bullets, on the prisoners. Mr. Wearing said the Mass broken was value 3Ds and the wood work ss. His Worship said it was fortunate that Mr. Wearing escaped; it was highly improper for persons to act as the prisoners had acted. The prisoners said they were under the impression that they were far enough away, practisirrg at a target, that was only breast high. His Worship hoped the press :it case would prove a warn ing to others. He fined each eel and costs, and if paid, he ordered Mr. Wearing to be compensated for the damage. In default of payment, ono rnonth's bard laboureach. Mureozeor S ASSAUL , r ON A POLICEMAN.—Edward Davie, police-cffieer 71 , 1, charged a man named A.tfred Stafford, the keeper of a boarding-house in 30 court, Key-street, with having committed a desperate assault en him. On the night ofthe 28th ult., about eight o'clock, he was in Oldhall-street, when a gentleman, whu was passing with his wife, complained that she had been insulted' by some men who were standing at the corner of a street, a short distance. The officer went to the place and saw the prisoner and some other men there, and he requested them to go away, when the prisoner at once knocked him down, and kicked him desperately in the le tck and over the body, so that he became insensible, and was not conscious of anything from that time (Friday night) to the following Wednesday, when he found himself in the Northern Hospital. Surgeon Davies, of the Northern Hospital, said the complainant was brought there labourirg under,a very severe concussion of the brain, and was in a most dangerous state. He will not be able to do anything for some considerable time tc come. Two boys proved that they saw the attack by the prisoner, and two policemen partly corroborated the statement. The prisoner was sent for trial. BEFORE MESSRS. W. ItATIIBONE AND ROMILLY. CURIOUS CHARGE Or DRUNKENNESS AGAINST A PUBLI CAN'S WIFE —lnspector White summoned Mrs. Elie &teeth Ames, the wire of the owner of the " Red Lion" public house, London-road, for being drunk and disorderly. Mr. Snowball appeared for the detendant. The Inspector said, at a quarter past one o'clock on the morning of the 4th inst., the defendant was drunk and disorderly in Gildart street. She is the wife of the keeper of the "Red Lion" public-house in Ie ndon-road, and the house is kept as a night house, and Mr. Snowball : Stop, sir, I object to this—the charge againat her is for being drunk, and you must confine yourself to that. Mr.Wnite : I must tell the whole ewe. There is a side door from the house into Gildart-s reet, and at the time I state there were five or six prostitutes at it, and —. Mr. Snowball : I object to tats—yon must confine youself to the charge of drunken ness, fleet is, if she was drunk. Mr. White: She vves drunk, and very disorderly. Cross-examined by Mr. Snow ball : I did not see any one leaving the door with a jab full of ale. I did not push any r e sp ec t a bl e p erson f rom t he door. No one came out of the house in my sight. I was driving or telling the women to go away. I was not pushing them away. Mr. Snowball: Don't you call " driving" people away "pushing" them away ? No; but you may call it so. I did not lay hands on any one. Mr. Snowball : What did Mrs. Ames (the defendant) say to you. She nuked me what an ugly looking ape like me was doing there. (Laughter.) Mr. Snowball : And you swear she was drunk ? I do, and that she need bad language and was very disorderly. Mr. Snow hall: Did you see her after that on the same night ? Yes, about two and a-half hours after she came to Prescott street Brideweli, with her husband and another man, to enquire about me, and lo ascertain who I was. Mr. Rathbone : Did the bridewell-keeper see her then ? No, sir; he was engaged booking two prisoners at the time, and did not see her. Mr. Wybergh : You say she was drunk—did she stagger? I don't know that she did, but I know from her appearance and manner, and the language she used, that she was dru n k. Police-officer 368 was examined, and said : I saw the defendant, and I should say she was drunk. Mr. Snowball : But wee she drunk, sir? She was, sir. Mr. Snowball. You swear the ? I do. Mr. Snowball : Did you see h r stagger ? No, for she stood in the • door, so that I could not see if she was staggering drunk or not, Mr. Snowball then addressed the court, and said the charge was one easily made, bat the present he did not think proved. No doubt the lady was very much excited at seeing the conduct of the police towards respectable persons who were leaving the house, and she went after wards to Prescott-street Bridewell with her husband, and Mr. White : Yes, her husband was drunk when he came there. They keep a night house, and har bour psseitutes. Mr. Snowball : If they do, why don't vou summon them for it ? Mr. White : They always do business at the door, so it is very hard to catch them— that's the ream. Mr. Snowball then produced a female who said she lived opposite the door in question, and saw the affair. Tae defendant was sober. Margaret Kenible, the servant in the house, swore the defendant was per fectly sober. Mr. William Robinson Little said he went to the hose with defendant's husband, and she complained of the officei's conduct, and they all then went to Pee Bride well, to inquire about him; she was! hen perfectly sober. Mr. Snolbell : That's my case. Mr. Rathbone said, no doubt there was a great deal of conflicting evidence iu the case. He had no doubt that something that should not have happened did take place on the occasion ; a doubt was, however, created, and he would give the benefit of that c:aubt to the defendant, and dismiss the case. THE DEAD MAN'S 13OOT3.—Crrnious.—George Harkness, the keeper of a public-house at 26, Dale-street, was charged by his wife, Margaret, with having violently assaulted her. The case was a strange one, as will be found from the details. Mr. Bluck was for the defendant, who appeared in court in a state of intoxication, and during the hearing of the case coeducted himself in the most extraordinary manner, and was frequently told if he did not conduct himself properly, he would be committed. Mr. Biuck also told his client several times that he was very ill conducted, and was only injuring himself. The complainant stated on the previous morning her husband assaulted her in a violent manner, blackened her eye, and otherwise ill used her. Mr. Bluck cross-examined the witness as follows : I Bee at 26, Dale-street, and keep a public house. The defendant is my second husband. and I was married to him on the 22nd of September last. I have five ch:l iren. My former husband died on the 4th of July, and the defendant is one of the executors of his will. Mr. }Thick : How long were you married to your former husband? Eleven years. The defendant is one of three executors of his will. I am one of the executors myself. Mr. Black : D.d he want a pair of boo's? Yes. Did you give him a pair of boots ? Yes. Mr. Bluck : Did the boots fit him ? He said so. Mr. Bluck : Whose boots were those ? Witness : Sir ? Mr. Bieck : Whose boots were those, madam ? Witness: They belonged to my late husband. Mr. Black : Did you upbraid him, and say lie was wearing a dead man's boots ? Witness : He called me a vile name. Mr. Black : Did you taunt him for wearing a dead man's boots, madam ? (Here the defendant leaped up, and cried out, " She did, and would any gentlemen stand that ?") He then acted in a ver, disorderly manner, and was told several times if he did not keep quiet, he would be sent to prison. Mr. Bluck complained that the defendant, by his conduct, was preventing him of doing his duty. Mr. Rathbone said : I hope not Mr. Bluck, for you always perform your duty fearlessly and with great ability. Mr. Black thanked his Worship. Mr. Bluck then asked the witness if she had not gro'sly insulted her husband about the dead man's boots? and the said she had. He then asked her if he did not take off the boots and fling one of them at her head ? Here the defendant again leaped up, and swore any gentleman would do the same thing, and that he did not care a -- for the magistrates nor any one else, and they might send him to jail for six months, or sixty moo he, he cared not which. After a very wild scene on the part of the defendant, Mr. Bluck addressed the Court on his behalf, and said it was quite clear the state he was in, and he trusted that the Bench would only bind him to keep the peace. Mr. Rathbone censured the conduct of the defendant, and ordered him into custody for 24 hours, and then he was to find bail to keep the peace. The prisoner was removed, plunging and kicking violently. UNWHOLESOME MEAT.—Patrick Hennessy, of St. %Thies Marker, was charged on two informations, by Inspector Reed, for having exposed, on ope occasion, 55 lbs. of un wholesome meat; and on another, 2 lbs., none of which was fit for human food.

RELIeF OF THE DESTITUTE I CHDALE.—The Mayor (R. T. Heape, Esq.), Dr. Molesworth, vicar, and H. Ke'sail, and James Chadwick, Esqrs., county magistrates, held a conference for the purpose of considering whether any means should be adopted, in addition to the parochial relied now given for the relief of the poor and unemployed. Mr. Roberts, clerk to the Board of Guardians, was present, as were the relieving officers of the union. A statement was read, comparing the condition of things in 1847 and 1857, showing the number upon the re:ii-ef lists, and it was then considered that the time had not yet arrived for the adoption of any extra measures, but that if things went worse another meeting should be held to re-consider the matter. MEETINGS OF FORGEMEN OF NORM STAFFORDSHIRE. —A large number of forgemtn and others employed at the ironworks in North Staffordshire, met on Monday, in the Market-place, Burslem, to deliberate upon a notice which has been given by the masters, of a reduction of wages. The leaders of the men were informed by Super intendent Povey, that they could -not be allowed to hold a meeting in that place, and the police at once proceeded to clear the squire. This was done with some difficulty, but no breach of the peace took place. The men then adjourned to an open space, at Longport, near Mr. Davenport's work, but on the approach of the police, they abandoned their intention of holding a meeting there, and adjourned a second time to Wolstanton Marsh, where they were allowed to remain undisturbed. A. second meeting was held at the same place on Tuesday mornieg. RE•OPEVING OF THE WOLVERHAMPTON BANN..—The Wolverhampton and Staffordshire Bank re-o,ened on Tuesday morning, for the liquidation in full of the notes in circulation, this proceeding beija necessary before the bank resumes business in the ordiff.y way. Of the exact anaouut of notes returned to the bank we have not precise informati.on, but it is very much below what was antici pated; neither was any particular anxiety evinced by holders of notes to effect the exchange for specie, although we are informed that a good number have changed hands at a small discount during the suspension. Mr. Hill, the new manager, attended at the bank ; several of the directors were also present. The sum of £lOO,OOO to be raised by the directors, is understood to be ready; and if the further amount required by the creditors to be provided by the shareholders is obtained by the end of the week, it was stated, on Tuesday, that it is not improbable the bank will resume its general business on Monday or Tuesday next.—Birmingham Daily Post. STATE OT TRADE IN THE NORTH-EAST TowNs.—The condition of trade in all the towns between the Tees and the Tweed is gloomy, slid a very considerable number of workmen are out of employment. The best employed are the pitmen, but as a resolation has been come to by the ironmasters to blow out one fourth of the furnaces now in blast, and as the ironworks consume an immense quantity of coal, thy may expect to feel a lessened demand for their labour. A great number of workmen have been paid off from the iron-ship building yards of the Tyne, and the principal iron manufacturers are working short time. Coal freights to Landon are only 6a per ton, and the shipowners state that they are sailing their vessels at a loss. Tnough every interest is feeling the depression of the times, and the disturbance to trade occasioned by the stoppage° of the District Bank, so far there has been no suspension of any lar;,>e works. This week two or three firms engaged in the grocery and provision trade in New castle, have been declared* to be in difficulties. They have been occasioned by the usual accommodation having been cnt off at the District Bank. It is Rasitively stated that that unfortunate company will be greatly relieved by a gentleman (whose name it is not necessary to mention) taking upon himself all the responsibility of an extensive ironwork largely involved with tee bank. The authority is pretty good that some arrangement of the sort had been come to. MANCHESTER FACTORIES ON FULL AND SIIORT TIME, OPERATIVES IN AND our OF WORK The following tables, compiled under the direction of Captain Polio, chief constable, show the state of the factories and of the operatives in Manchester during the week ending yesterday (Wednesday) : BrA.TE OF FACIORIES, &C, No. of Fall time Full time works. all part of Short Stop..

Thus, during the week, two cotton mills, employing 300 hands, have been added to the list, the number of dyers has been increased by 267, and of those engaged at foundries there are 340 more ; while the number of mechanists has been reduced by 95 ; consequently the difference in the totals is an addition, this week, of two mills, and 812 operatives. Yet there is a decrease of 604 in the num ber wholly out of employment, quite exclusive of the joiners and bricklayere,who have this week resumed work. With respect to the state of the facto•iee, &c., as compared with last week, the gentral result is that in every class (except worsted mills and foundries, which remain as before) there are more working short time, the total in crease being 23, The total number wholly stopped, and the number on full time are less than before, the only increase being that two silk mills have re-commenced work with all hands, and that three cotton mills have resumed with a portion of no hands.• With reference to the operatives, there are more in every class working full time, but there are also more out of work in every class but three ; these three include the hands occupied at a worsted mill, all on short time,—cotton factory hands, of whom there are 709 fewer out of work this week than last,—and those eogeged at printworks, whose number out of work has been reduced by 253. The entire number, then, that have resumed work in the week has been 955; but the number of the operatives in silk and smallware mills, dyeworks, machine works, and foundries who have neared to work during the week being deducted, the total number out of work this week is only 604 below last week's number. The proportions, in round numbers, between the number of ore-atives usually employed, and the number out of work at present, are as follow :—Out of work : cotton mills, one in six ; silk mills, one in three; smallware mil s, one in seven ; printworks, one in seven ; dyeworks, one in Sve ; machinists, one in four ; foundries, one in Hine ; on the whole, rather less than two in eleven are out of work. — Manchester Guardian. The New York Journal of Commerce says, that the imports of general merchandise are so large for the reason of the year, that a large quantity will have to be either re-shipped or held unsold for a long time to come. INDIA Mt TINY RELIEF FUND.—The sum of £4:9 5s has been forwarded to this committee, being the residue of a fund which was collected by British subjects in Russia during the late war for the relief of their felb cv-country men who were prisoners of war in that county'. As many persons are labouring under the erroneous impression that the applicants for relief are few in numbe, and that the distress is much exaggerated, the followiig extract from a letter from Calcutta, of 22nd October, will tend to correct this impression :—"I have bean favoured with yours of the 10th ult., and am happ- to observe the degree of success that has attended /our kind exertions in the good cause of the sufferers by the Sepoy revolt. The full extent of the distress will tot be known or felt for some time, as many who have leen deprived of their all have not yet reached any place refuge, and doubtless when they are enabled to leave the stations in which they are located, such as Agra, Lucknow, Landour, a large accession to the number of applicants for relief will present themselves."

THE IRON AND COAL TRADES. The iron trade of the districts of South Staffordshire and East Worcestersh re continues in a very depressed condition The leading houses of the trace of Fast Worcestershire since the meeting of ire various members in this tawn, on Wednesday, have determined upon giving their workmen notce of a reduction of wages. On Saturday the determination became general, and the various firms in both districts on that evening, simultaneous y gave fourteen days' notice to the fo lowing workmen for a reduction : —Furnaeemen, 20 percent; mechanics generally, 20 per cent; blast en ginemen, 15 percent; thin miners, coal and stone, 61 per day; boatloaders and labourers, 20 per cent. Between thirty and forty furnaces have been blown out, and this number will be increased during the we k. The consumption of pig iron has fallen off very much, and prices have declined greatly since quarter-day. We have heard of one eminent firm purchasing 3,010 tons of pigs at £3 per ton, which were quoted a few weeks before the panic at The coal trade is brisk, and the price fully maintained, namely—best 12s, common Ins, lum .s 83 6d, and fine slack 33 per ton at the wharfs. It has been decided not to interfere with the wages of thick coal colliers at present, on account of the demand for coal. The serious depreciation in the price of pig iron, and the want of confidence, have seriously reduced the opera ti ns of the mills, forges, and furnaces in the district and have been the cause of interfering with the wages of thin coal miners, stone getters, and others. It is hoped that the various workmen will se • the necessity of conforming to the reductions that have been forced upon the masters by circumstances which they deplore, and over which they have no control. Ironstone has a downward tendency, and it is rather difficult to effect sales.— Wolterhlinton Chronicle. THE BArtosir OF BEREELRY.—We understand that Sir Maurice Berkeley proposes at once to pres-nt a petition to her Majesty, claiming the barony of Berkeley as a barony by tenure. The late Lord Fitz`lardiege presented a similar petition previously to his having been created a peer by letters patent, a circumstance which prevented at the time the necessity for any judical decision by a corn• mittee of privilege of the House of Lords upon his lordship's claim as a baron by tenure.—Manchester Guar dian. PARTIES IN FRANCE.—The Paris press comprises :—l. The journals which are neither for the empire nor for liberty. 2 The journals which are for liberty without the empire. 3. Tee journals which are for the empire without liberty. 4. The journals which are for liberty under the empire. Neither the empire nor liberty means either the restoration of the Count de Chambord, or the return to France of the Count de Paris, or the triumph of the fusion. Liberty without the empire means a new revolution leading once again to a new dictatorship. The empire without liberty is the ideal of the journals which have brought us into existence, just as light is a contrast to darkness, Liberty under the empire is what we wish for, and what all friends of reform and all enemies of revolution should wish for with us. The empire and liberty may be as easily reconciled with each other as " the empire and peace." If the empire is a glorious peace, why should it not be fruitful liberty ? What is necessary to make liberty faithful? That power should he virile. By the common consent of all, friends and enemies, the existing power in France unites all the coniitions of virility and strength ; the empire which is peace may therefore be also liberty,— Ceurrier de Paris. INCENDIARY FIRE NEAR BARNSLEY —A little before seven o'clock on Friday evening last, ow? of eight stacks, in the farmyard of Mr. William Gray, an extensive farmer, residing at Holyland Nether, was discovered to be on fire, and under circumstances which leave little doubt that it was the work of au incendiary. The family were all engaged in the house when an alarm was given by a man passing, that one of the stacks was burning. An alarm was raised, and the whole of the village turned out, and did everything that was possible to subdue the flames ; the engines from Earl Fitzwilliam's, "Wentworth House, and one from Barnsley, were also quickly on the ground, and there being a good supply of water, they played most effectually on the burning stack. At the same time, attention was directed to the other stacks, which was quite close to the burning one, and by means of wet carpets and blankets, and the engines 'aing kept playing upon them they were saved. The stack appears to have been set on fire at the bottom, and to have gradually burnt upwards. The wheat destroyed is estimated at from 60 to 70 loads, a circumstance more attributable to the fact of the wind being south, for had it blown in a contrary direction, the destruction of property must have been great, as, besides the eight stacks, the barns and outbuildings were close at hand. One of the firemen with the Wentworth engine, named Falld;ng, met with an accident. While exerting himself, one end of the burning stack fell upon him, and jammed him against the barn, and before he could be extricated he was a good deal burned about the legs. The fire was completely extinguished by midnight. We under stand that Mr. Gray is insured in the Yorkshire office.
