FIRE AJD LOSS OP LIPS.

Yesterday morning, about three o'clock, a fire
broke out in the Gray's-inn-road, near the Kinestroms
Railway station, which we regret to state has been attended
with fatal soirequeneir.alrearly to two human beings7s

mother sad isfaa--and then li but little doubt but, the
husband and father. The premises were in the tenure of
Mr. Greodaberth, a corn chandler, 17, Cheater-place, Gray's-
inn-road, adjoining the stores of the North Loudon Repoli-
tory. The discovery was made by a police officer, who after
considerable trouble managed to arouse the inmates. They
consisted of Matilda Baker, the housekeeper, a family con-
sisting of Mr. and Mrs. Keir and an infant only twelve
months old, and a man named George, the carman, who also
in the building. He sumeeded in getting out of the
attic window, and ran along the parapet of the adjoining
houses, and was sheltered by Mr. Palmer io the same street.
Mr. Keir having snatched up his infantilay, opened the
front window on the second floor, and p the child on
the ledge, and was in the act of throwing it into the street,
but the little innocent's foot caught in the iron bars in front
of the window, used for protecting flowerpots. Mrs. Keir
had also made her appearance at the same window. Her
husband tried in vain to get her away, thinking that the
Royal Society's escape bad arrived, but unfortunately such
was not the case, as owing to the excitement at the time
the escape had not been sent for, and Mrs. Heir, after
uttering two or three frantic screams, was seen to fall in
the midst of the dames, and in a few minutes the poor
creature was burned almost to • cinder. The husband
finding that he could render no further assistance to his
wife, tried to move himself. Having got out of the win-
dow, he laid hold of the ledge, were he held on for • short
time, with the dames curling round his body and over Ids
head. He then fell upon the dap beneath. He was
picked up in • state of insensibility, and removed to the
Royal Free Hospital, when it was found that his arms,
hands sod neck ware extensively burned, and his collar
bone broken. Very little hope is entertained of his re-
covery. The infant was rescued by the Royal Society's
escape conductor, and taken to the Royal Free Hospital. It
was seriously burned, and died in four hours after its ad-
mission. Four engines of the London Brigade were early
in arriving. The flame were not extinguished until the
premises, furniture, and stock were destroyed. A. soon
as the flames were got out, and before the ruins were
cooled, some of the Mipde entered the second door front
mom, and under the window found the remains of the
poor woman. The bodies were removed to the deed-
hone., to await the inquest. The cause of the misfortune
is unknown, and Mr. Gresidsberth being out of town at
the time, it could not be aloe:tabbed whether or not he
was insured.

ANOTHER FEARFUL ACCIDENT TO A FEMALE

BY MACHINERY.

HALTON, SATURDAY.
A most shocking accident oocnrred yesterday
afternoon at Birdsall, • Wold village • few miles from
Halton. Except in its horrible termination, the accident
is precisely similar to the recent one at Sunderland. It
seems that Mrs. Hudson, the wife of Mr. Haden, a sli_ojp.
keeper at Binythorpe. a neighbouring village, was at Mr.
Watson's farm at Birdsall, when a corn thrashing machine
was in use. Mrs. Hudson, it is stated, attempted to step
over the " tumbliug.shaft," which revolves rapidly, and has
a connexion in the centre presenting sharp angles, which
are very likely to catch and retain hold of • dram if
brought in proximity. It is thought Mrs. Hudson's dress
was caught in this way, and was instantaneously wrapped
several times round the shaft, the wearer being, of coarse,
brought down with it, and, to the horror of all present,
whirled round and round with every revolution. The
machinery was stopped as quickly as pomible, and when
the unfortunate woman was extricated it was found that
her knees were dislocated, and that she had received many
wounds and very serious injuries. To-day she is stated to
be in • precarious state. The accident is doubtless owing
to • went of proper fencing over the shaft, • precaution
very tardy adopted in thrashing reachiaas.

A letter dated Adelaide November 22, says
The Yudananintana Mine looks most magnificent, and
Captain James states that he can get another 100 tons of
ors as eaaily as this first lot was obtained ; indeed, it is
hardly to be seen that any has been taken away, which can
easily be imagined when he was quarrying upon a course of
ore 90 test wide, and which can be seen on the surface,
more or less, for a distance of :CO yards.

ROME.

The national committee have issued au address
to the Roman people, urging them to discretion.
The nation, it says, ought to prepare
for events, showing to Europe, a firm desire
to separate the temporal from the spiritual, but
also respect towards the Pontiff and the ministers
of religion. Sincere catholic, ought to be convinced
that the safety of the Pope will not be compromised
by the departure of the French troops. The
Romans, however, will prove on all suitable occa-
sions, by pacific manifestations, that they are firmly
resolved to make partof the kingdom of Italy under
he sceptre of Victor Emmanuel.

The Courrier de CA lgerie reports the effects of a
terrible storm that swept over the city of Algiers
and its vicinity on the 10th inst. The damage done
to buildings and gardens is very great, though the
tornado, as it appears to have been, did not last
more than 20 minutes. Two military hospitals and
two of the workshops of the Artillery Arsenal are
nearly destroyed. Trees were torn up and houses
unroofed in every direction. The storm burst over
the city exactly at noon, and was followed by a
rain that fell in sheets. The most violent effects of
the tempest were confined to the city and the
Babel-Oued ; the ride of Bab-Asoum and Hamtna
entirely escaped it.

Thai was a pretty large muster of members at the

Was not of that buoyant description that the day before

Speculation was, however, rife, while members remsiued
together, as, in their anxiety to catch the evening express,
the room was thinned at an early hour. The most notice.
able feature of the betting was the retrogression of Bally
Edmond, about whom 20 to 1 was taken, while " the Caps"
and Pembroke were firm at their quototions. For the St.
Leger, the Marquis holds the same steady position, 4 to 1
being taken to money. A fresh candidate for the Derby of

BUFFALO AND LAKE HUBON.-(TRIS DAY.)

A special meeting wan held at the London Tavern
this afternoon, in pursuance of a requisition which had been
addressed to the board by twelve shareholders, "to resolve
upon what terms the uptakes portion of the new issue of
61. 13s. 4d. shares should be offered to the proprietors who
had accepted their allotment.; of the said shares."
Mr. Ltereros occupied the chair.
Mr. ARTHUR Aseron thought the scheme which had
been proposed for issuing these 61. 13s. 4d. shares had been
free from most cf the objections which attached to tie
after pl►ns that had been suggested for relieving the com-
pany from its financial difficulties. He was glad to say that
12,500 of the new share■ had been accepted, but he thought
that * final appeal should be made to the proprietors to
take up the remainder. He begged, therefore, to propose—
let. That the subscription list for the new capital, au-
thorised by the resolutions of the tied of May,
1862, be finally closed on the Ist of September next.
2. That the new shares (if any) not subscribed for or allotted
by the Ist of September, shall be offered pro raid to their
subscribers to the said new capital ; and that they or the
holders thereof for Hie time being, or their nominees, shall
have the opportunity of accepting at any time previous to
the Ist of July, 1865, their proportion of such unallotted
shares at the price of 51. instead of 6/. 13s. 4d. per share.
After some discussion the resolutions were agreed to.

TURIN, Ancurr 18.
The official Gazette of to-day states that Garibaldi
has gone from Piazza to Aidone.
Influential persons belonging to the extreme party
have written to Garibaldi, urging him to abandon
his enterprise and spare Sicily a civil war.
Garibaldi has proposed to some of his friends at
Palermo to establish a committee of public safety.
It is said that they absolutely refused.
Perfect tranquillity prevails throughout Sicily.

TURIN, Awns? 18, Evzinsa.

According to further advioes received here from
Palermo, Garibaldi was still in the neighbourhood
of Piazza. The royal troops had arrived within
half a day's journey from the volunteers. The
number of the former was much superior.
It was believed that a pacific solution of matters
would be arrived at.

The oonduct of the population continued to be
such as to render any extension of the movement
impassible.

MONTENEGRO.
MOSTAR, Atom. 17.

The Turks have been driven back across the
river Rieke with considerable loss. They still con-
tinue, however, to attack the Montenegrins. Can-
nonading was heard yesterday in the direction of

SURREY SESSIONS.

Joseph Grossdass, 12, the eon of docent parents, residing
in Howland-street, Fitaroyequare, who bad been convicted
at the last sessions of administering canth•rides to Huth
Glynn, was called up for judgment.
It apt-eared from the evidence given at the time of the
trial that the proscenia went to Richmond with other
Sunday 'cholera to a feast, and the prisoner was among the
party. %hen the children were enjoying themselves, the
prisoner got another boy to purchase two pennyworth of
Spanish flies at a chemist's, and some taste. He mixed the
flies in the tarts, and gave one to the proseoutria, and
afterwards behaved indecently to her. She was taken very
ill, and the prisoner was given into custody. During the
trial the girl fainted away twice, and her evidence taken
before the magistrate was read over to her. The sentence
was postponed, to ascertain the result of the injury inflicted
on her.

Mr. Robinson, who attended for the prosecution' rid that
unfortunately since the trial the poor girl had become a
maniac, and was at the present time confined in St. Pan-
cras Lunatic Asylum.
Mr. Thompson, for the prisoner, urged his youth and inex-
perience in such a drug, hoping that • slight punishment
would be sufficient to meet the ends of justice and a lesson
to him for the remainder of his life.

The Chairman observed that it was a very bad me in-
deed, and it would be impossible for them to peas it over
lightly. The sentence of the court was that he be impri-
soned for two months, and ►t the expiration of that term
be confined in a reformatory three years.
James Sharp and Mary Sharp, his wife, were indicted for
stealing a pocket-book containing 5/., the property of James
. . .

II appearod from the evidence that the prosecutor dropped
his pocket-book and oontent, in the street, and the prisoners
were seen to pick it op. They converted the money to their
own use, and refused towy anything about it.
The jury found them both Guilly. Sentence, two months'
hard labour.

and the whole truth as to the situation in Italy.
The Emperor did not commit himself in reply,
for he is reported, as usual, to have said—nothing.
In the meantime we learn that preparations are
making at Toulon by which 10,000 French troops
can be thrown upon the Italian coast within thirty-
six hours ; and Count Montebello is stated to have
informed the 85th Regiment that they must expect
shortly to fight Garibaldi. A letter from Turin,
received this evening, says that the Marquis Pepoli
has no proposition whatever, officially or other
wise, to make to the Emperor, but simply
will, "of his own accord, lay before his Majesty
the difficult position of the Italian govern-
ment in face of the acts of Garibaldi, which
it is obliged to oppose, while at the same time it
shares hisdesire to obtain for Italy its only possible
capital." We also learn from the Turin corres-
pondence that Garibaldi had been summoned to lay
down his arms within 24 hours. This period had
expired at the time the letter giving the intelli-
gence was written. " I leave you to judge," says
the writer, "what is the universal disquietude."
The official Gazette has a vague statement, to the
effect that "everything leads us to suppose that a
solution is now probable which will render any con-
flict unnecessary."
At the Bourse prices had generally a downward
tendency. Rente left off at 68fr. 85c. for cash,
and 68fr. 95c. for account, being a rise of Sc. fur
the latter. The Italian Loan was very sensitive—it
fell from 70fr. 90c. to 70fr. 75c., the closing price.
Cavour Canal shares are said to be in great demand
at Turin at 10fr. premium ; at this price holders
refuse to sell.

BRIGANDAGE IN SOUTH ITALY.

The Patria of Naples tells the following painful
story of brigand violence :
A few days ego eight brigands scoured the countr► in the
neighbourhood of Rotundells, in the province of Basilicata,
carrying off with them from different places • communal
councillor, • rich landholder, an ex-gendarme of the Bourbon
government, two joiners, and eleven women, including three
young girls. They took them all into the wood of l'olicoro,
crossing the Sinn• stream. They then committed outrages
upon the women, the cries of their victims only exciting their
ferocity more than ever, so that one of them, named
Mariangele Montemomo, received fourteen wounds with •
stiletto in consequence of her resistance. The brigands then
let their prisoners go, except two, whom they tortured for
two days in the most barbarous manner, arid then set at
liberty after exacting enormous ransoms. In the province
of Capitanata a party of brigands surrounded a farm beloog.
mg to the brothers filartneeelli, and ordered them to give
up their arms and ammunition. Upon their refusal the
miacreante collected all the cattle in an open space and shot
them down, thus causing damage to the amount of 12,000 f.
In the neighbourhood of Bisaocia, the brigands set fire to
several farms, and killed ten persons, only desisting and
taking to flight on seeing a party of troops arrive. Near
Campobasso, 13 brigands pillaged the house of a poured
named Picco, whose eon they carried away, and only released
as payment of 100 ducats. The brigands, under Chiavona
who infest the district of Avellio, a few days ago shot a
woman aged 50, on suspicion of her having informed against
them. The Neapolitan papers are loud in their complainta
of the neglect of the authorities to take effective meuurea
against the brigand,.

A letter from Belgrade of the 9th, in the Bieck,
says that the Turks, in spite of the armistice, con-
tinue their armaments and their defensive works, in
the anticipation of a war which becomes every day
more imminent.

A bode of 2,000 Nisams, detached from the army of Ann-
tolia, and transported by railway to Czerna•Voda, bays mine
up the Danube in Austrian steamers, sad are only at a few
hours' distance from Belgrade. Another steamer has landed
at the fortreas 14 rifled cannon, furnished by the Austrian
arsenals, Numerous redoubts have been constructed, and a
ditch which joins the citadel to the Danube has been com-
pleted within the last few days The meads have remon-
strated against this violation of the Kaifu quo imposed on
the belligerent parties by the Conference ; but the Imperial
commissioner has paid no attention to their protest, and the
works continue, while the Berrien government scrupulously
observe the conditions of the armistice, relying on Europe
appreciating its moderation and its forbearance. Neverthe-
less, the news from Constantinople is not very satisfactory,
and there is every reason to think that the question now
submitted to the arbitration of diplomacy cannot be settled
but by the sword.

The number of immigrants who entered the port
of Quebec from the openiug of the navigation to the 28th
of J al', 1862, was 13,687, and during the corresponding
period in 1862, 14,737.

HANOVER.

The people of Hanover are in a state of violent
commotion, and have in some instances become
riotous, on account of a new Catechism, which the
I King, as first bishop of the land, has been pleased
to compose for his protestant subjects. The old
catechism, introduced in 1790, was drawn up in
accordance with the doctrines of the celebrated ra-
tionalists of that day, who constituted the theolo-
gical faculty of Gottingen, and has for a long time
been held in aversion by the orthodox. According
to a letter of the 15th iustantt in the Independence
Beige, the new catechism is based upon an old
work, of which the royal ordinance says that
"our Luneburg provinces formerly regarded it as
a special gift of Divine grace." "It is composed,"
says the letter, "in a completely obsolete style ;
teaches the personal existence of a devil ; leads to
a belief in magical power ; extols the merit of
fasting ; attributes to priests the power of granting
absolution ; in short, it is of a nature either to
train up children in scepticism and ignorance, or to
plunge them into fanaticism."

VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A comnADLE.
William Bishop, a labourer. a stiff-built young fellow,
was charged before Mr. Barker with being drunk and
assaulting police-constable Mason, 236 N, in the execution of
Lis duty.
Front the evidence of the constable, it appeared that
yesterday morning, at an early hour, the prisoner and two
other teen, all the worse fur liquor, were making a great
noise in the street. The prisoner was singing a filthy
ditty, and making use of disgusting epithets. He told
the prisoner to desist, on which he and his com-
panions said they should go when they idolised, and
the prisoner said that he should make one to give the police.
man a good hiding, and at once struck him in the face. He
then took him into custody, and on the way to the police.
station the prisoner became so violent that it took three
constables and three civilians to get him along.
Mr. Mould (chief clerk)—What do you mean by civilians?
Constable—Why, I mean tradespeople. (A laugh.)
Mr. Barker—Why do you not use proper terms? You
areas much a civilian as a tradesman.
The prisoner in defence said that the constable first
assaulted him, and what be did was in self-defence.
The police stated that the prisoner had before been con-
victed for *vaults on the police and for felony.
Mr. Barker ordered the prisoner to pay a fine of 205.. or
io default of payment to be imprisoned in the House of Cor-
rection for 9.1 days.
The prisoner was locked up in default.

NEOFDOTE4 OF A TRADER-DEBTOR SUMMONS.

In the case of a trailer-debtor common', Mr. Lawrence,
on behalf of the defendant, took the objection that the par-
ticulars of demand were not expressed with "reasonable
end convenient certainty," as required by the act. In
this caw it did not appear whether the sum sought to be
recovered had been advanced in one corn, or several, or at
what d►tes, and no account was annexed to the partaculars

THANES.

Rirtard Johnsfirse, . youth of 19, and described as a
labourer, whose address was refused, was brought before
Mr. Solfe, charged with feloniously and burglariously break-
ing and enteriog the dwelling-house of Mr. John Page, en-
graver and printer, No. 3, Seville-place, Mile-end-road, and
stealing property and money to the amount of about 101.
therefrom.
Mr. Page fastened his house up and secured the doors
and windows in the usual manner before be went'to bed at U
o'clock the previous night. That morning at a quarter before
two he was aroused from his sleep by a loud knocking, and
found the police in the house. He got up, and the first
thing he missed was • pair of trousers. They had been
removed from his bedside. On going down stairs he dis-
covered that an entrance bad been obtained by forcing back
the catch of the kitchen window, cutting away the wooden
frame and withdrawieg the bolts. A good deal of prope-ty,
including three coats, Ores tonics, a scarf, three waistcoats,
two pairs of boots, a cruet stand, three petticoat; and
Itia. 9d. in money were missing from several rooms. A great
portion of the property was recovered. It was found made
up into a bundle under the kitchen window. The money
was in Mr. Page's trouser, pocket when he went to bed, and
he did not recover it wan.
Jobs Cock, 6, Windsor-terrace, Canal-road, was on his
way home at one that morning, and sew the prisoner
and a tall man crowing towards him from the direction of
Mr. Page's house. He asked them what they did there,
and the man replied, " All right, mate." Cock made an
attempt to stop him, on which the fellow raised a heavy

stick. Cook considered it prudent to let him par, but
caught the prisoner as he was running past him, and de-
tained him until a policeman named Bagwell, 328 K, made
his appearance. Bagwell secured the prisoner, and upon
searching him found a petticoat stolen from a room in Mr.
Page's hones, under the waistband of his trousers. Other
property was missing, which there is no doubt was to the
possession of the prisoner's accomplice.
Mr. Selfe—ls the acoomplios known?
Bagwell replied in the affirmative, and said the prisoner
wee a notorious thiet, and had begonia custody several times.
Mr. Sells remanded the prisoner for a week.
