FALL OF A HOUSE. —Yesterday morning, between
8 and 9 o'clock, the inhabitants of Church-street, Bethnal-
; green, were greatly alarmed by the fall of a large building,
No. 101 in that thoroughfare, used as a storehouse by Mr.
Clements, a corn chandler. Happily no personal injury at-
tended the occurrence, which is attributed to the weakened
state of the structure consequent upon some recent alters
tins.

I)EPARTURE OF THE ASIA.—The Cunard royal
mail steamer Asia, Captain Lott, left Liverpool on Saturday
morning at half-past ten o'clock, with mails for the United
Staten, Canada, Newfoundland, California, &c. The Asia
carried a good general cargo and 80 passengers on board.
NEw FRENCH WAR STEAMF.R.—A telegraphic
despatch from Toulon announces to the French Admiralty
that the steam line-of-battle ship the Napoleon had, by aid
of her engines alone, gone 111 and 12 knots an hour. The
apparatus consists of four flied cylinders; the movement is
communicated to the screw by cog wheels, and is capable of
developing a force of 1,200 bone power. The Itloniteur
says that the Napoleon is the most powerful vessel at pre-
sent afloat on the seas; it carries 90 guns, two months'
provisions, and one month's water, for its crew of 900 men,
and its stock of fuel exceeds 1,000 tons. It will be able to
go, it is said, about 1,000 leagues in ten days and a half.
" With such speed, and so strongly armed, the Napoleon,"
the Shalimar adds, " would offer, in ease of war the certain
means of maintaining the communications of France with
her colony in northern Africa."
SINGULAR AND FATAL. ACCIDENT.—One day ladt
week as a farmer and his wife, who resided near Csllington,
Cornwall, were returning from market in a cart, the horse
without any apparOnt cause, at a certain point of the road,
ran backwards and upset the cart, and itself falling upon
its back. On a neighbour coming by he found the man and
hie wife under the cart and the horse on its hack, and on
' lifting the cart it was found that the woman was dead.
The man was extricated, having exhrtsted his strength in
his efforts to get from under the cart.
BLIGHT AMONG GRAPES.—The Society of Phu.
mac yof the Sardinian States has offered a prize of 603 f.
for the best essay on the following question: " To point out
such menus as, by indubitable proofs of practical applica-
tion on a large *ere, may be shoan to be efficacious in pre-
serving grapes front the blight which is now prevalent, or in
stopping its progress." The essays must be written either
in Italian or French. They mast be still unpublished, and
sent in before the end of January, 1864, to the Secretary-
General of the Society of Pharmacy at Turin. Every sway
is to bear a motto, to be repeated on the cover of a sealed
note containing the name of tne author. The prize is to be
