THE TORT JOVREALR AND MR. BRIGHT.

The Herald ridicules Mr. Bright's reception by his
workpeople, and represents him as " going a begging for
some oue to give him a good character." The value of
such spontaneous testimony, coming from persons who
are dependent upon him for their daily bread, must be
obvious to all the world. There can, of course, be no lees
suspicious evidence as to the virtues of a manufacturer
than the certificate of those who look to him for their
wages every Saturday.
The Standard treats the subject in the same spirit. Tee-

FEARILL BOILER EXPLOSION IN SUNDER-

LAND.

At 8 o'clock on Saturday morning the residents
of the west part of Sunderland were startled by a loud
explosion, accompanied with a darkening of the atmos-
phere, indicating that an explosion had occurred. It was
soon discovered that one of the boilers attached to the Het-
ton Coal Railway, supplying steam to the stationary engine
which draws the coal waggons had " gone away "
and caused much destruction of property. The boiler was
one of three, two of which were in use, and the third was
undergoing repairs at the time. It was the outside boiler
which exploded and did so much mischief, and this was of
cylinder form, about six feet in diameter and 30 feet long.
The steam had been up since 3 o'clock in the morning,
and the pressure just before indicated 35 lbs. Fortunately
at the time the only persons near were a mason and a lad, who
were under the fire hole of the boiler out of use, doing
some repairs ; they escaped by a miracle almost uninjured;
the engineman had left the engine house adjoining
only • minute or two previously, and gone along the
railway, while the fireman was at the north end of the
boiler yard. The shed covering the boilers was completely
blown away ; the boiler was lifted bodily from its bed of
masonry, and flattened out like a sheet of paper, one end
being blown across the railway. The engine chimney is
rent from top to bottom with large gaping fissures, several
feet of the upper part carried away and it will have to be
taken down. The roofs of most of the houses within a
radius of 200 yards have suffered severely, and the win-
dows are all broken. The roof of a cottage was knocked
in on to a bed, where a child lay, but it fortunately escaped
with a few slight bruises. Another massive piece of pipe
was blown to the west, and one end buried in the ground
to the depth of three feet. The glass roof of Messrs.
Hartley and Co.'s glass works was much injured, and in
Hedley-street, more than 300 yards distant, a brick was
shot through a house window, and seriously injured a
woman who was sitting at her fireside. The cause of the
explosion is unexplained, but the boilers were supplied
with water from • well on the premises.—Lads Mercury.

Mr. Kent opposed, and stated that the bankrupt bad
put the detaining creditor to an expense of 171. by

committal, though he had been warned by the registrar
of the consequence of his persisting in such refusal.

MONEY MABENT.--(THIS DAY.)

Oita o'Cliciaz.

The stock markets to-day show a favourable
tendency, and tho changes in prices, with few
exceptions, are in an upward direction. Some of
the joint stock banks and discount establishments
are prepared to increase their advances upon
British railway and foreign stocks, and the incli-
nation of most of the speculators is, therefore, to
operate for a rise. As usual on a Saturday, there
is little business, but it is believed that more
activity will be apparent next week. Mean-
while the amount of money offering in
the Stock Exchange is nnprecedentedly large,
and loans on English government securities
cannot be placed for a week even at 1 per cent. per
annum. Consols are steady, at the quotations of
yesterday. Home railway securities are again
better, and foreign bonds meet with inquiry.
Financial shares, however, exhibit dulness.

In the discount market the rates for choice bills
are quoted 1 to If per cent., but we hear of some
tranaactiona at It The supply of money is greatly
in excess of the current requirements.
Consols are quoted 941 to I for money, and
941 io for the Bth Oct. The Three per Cents.
Reduced and New Three per Cents, are steady, at
93 to ex div.

A very shocking occurrence took place in the
Strand shortly before 1 o'clock this day. A number of people
were watching the operations that are going on opposite
St. Clement Danes Church, where. large block of property,
as our readers may know, is being pulled down to make
way for the new law courts. Some workmen were at the
moment removing from one of the pillars of the arch-
way leading through to Carey-street, the large stone
cap. The standards by which the stone was sus-
pended suddenly canted, and fell with a crash
to the ground, striking on the head a young man, about
21 years of age, whose name is unknown. He was re-
moved to King's College Hospital, and died almost im-
mediately after his admission.
London, England, 1867-09-14

would be about 201. His men objected to the money
being paid, became they said there wee less clay than was
charged and they had to make bricks by the thousand, so
that they would lose by there being under the quantity.
Robert Barker paid him the 8/. 2a. on behalf of the brick-
=ken' union, end he then opened his croft gain. Had
no idea who destroyed the bricks. It was done by tramp
ling on them. Made no claim upon the society, end could
not tell why they paid him. It was paid as compensation
for the spoiled bricks, and he knew of no reason why,
except that he stopped the work. He began work again
after being paid. He employs union men now. He did
not think the briclanakers' society either did the damage
or countenanced it. He was not allowed to attend meet-
ings of the union, but paid a pound a year, or he would
not be allowed to work with them. Did not pay to the
society in order that he might get compensated for bricks
destroyed.
Robert Barker sworn—Had been secretary of the Man-
chester brickmakers' union about three times for three
months each time. Left office about a week since. Paid
last witness for his bricks because a meeting decided that
as he had bed his bricks spoiled and was • nice, straight-
forward gentlemanly man, he ought to be compensated.
The society did not know who spoiled them. Never had
matters about trade outrages brought before the society.
The delegate had to go round, and if he saw men
working who were not union men he reported
to witness, and the society men would not work with
them. Knew Kay, but had never paid him money for an out-
safe. Remembered the murder of Jump, but was not in
office at the time, and recollected nothing of delegates
coming, or money being paid to defend the men. Never
made entries of incidental expenses or sundries. If Key
had demanded 101. for any extra job he would have had
no power to pay him, or give him anything beyond his
weekly salary.
The court adjourned soon after four o'clock.

EXECUTION OF THE LEIGH MURDERER.

DIY TRLICIRATR.)
LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY Movirio.

Henry Farrington, who was convicted of murder-
ing his wife at Leigh, was executed at noon to-day at
Kirkdale in the presence of a small crowd.
The culprit's demeanour was very firm. He made no
remark, and died without • struggle. Calcrsft wu the
executioner.

The Liverpool Mercury of to-day says :—" During the
last few days the culprit has been very attentive to his
devotional exercises : he is penitent, quite resigned, and
admits the justness of the sentence passed upon him. He
Las been, as already stated, visited by his aged mother,
his sister, and a friend. Since then a scripture
reader from Leigh, with whom be was acquainted,
has been to see him. Farrington was much pleased
with this visit, and expressed his thankfulness to
the gentleman for the interest he had taken in
him. He has written to some friends in Leigh,
expressing his contrition for the offence he committed, and
has frequently expressed his sorrow for the disgrace he
has brought upon his relatives. Yesterday he was quite
composed, and, under the circumstances, exhibited re-
markable firmness. He was attended by the Rev. R.
Appleton, the chaplain of the gaol, and appeared to be
deeply impressed by the reverend gentleman's exhortations.
He was, during a portion of the day, engaged in reading
his Prayer-book and religious tracts, and seemed anxious
to prepare himself for his impending doom."

TO THE EDITOR OP THE EXPREEI.

Sia,—The uninterrupted state of telegraphic
communication with America is evidenced by the
fact that in the course of yesterday 91 (ninety-one)
messages passed, yielding 2,5911. 7s. (two thousand
five hundred and ninety-one pounds seven shil-
lings). In order, however, to mitigate as far as
possible the effect of vague and exaggerated ru-1
mours, I feel it my duty, as chairman of this
company, to ask you to place the public in
possession of the following facts, viz.:—On the sth
instant it was reported that, on the 4th instant, at
6.30 p.m., a large iceberg grounded off the har-1
bour of Heart's Content. Newfoundland, about
one and a-half miles N.N.W. of Northern Point,'
and 200 yards east of the 1866 cable, in about 16
fathoms water. "No danger with present wind."
On the Bth instant it was reported that " Iceberg
has disappeared ;" but in passing over the cable of
1866 it seems, however, that some damage must
have been done, for the signals through that cable
became imperfect, and have now *eased. The
cable of 1865, however, is uninjured, and there is
no reason to doubt that the injury to the cable of
1866 will be repaired without delay or any consi-
derable expense. I need only add that the ca-
pacity of the cable of 1865 exceeds the require-
ments of the business, great as it is, between this
country and America.—l am, &c.,

IN AI P. W. STU&

This was a renewed application for release from custody,
,e sitting for choice of assignees having taken place. The
tankrupt, who described himself us of Twickenham, gen-
tleman, had been arrested at the suit of a creditor named
Giles, who hail formerly acted as his solicitor, and whose
claim arose upon • bond for 2,111 W., which the bankrupt
had given AS years since.
Mr. surgood opposed on behalf of the detaining creditor;
11r. Bagley supported the application ; and Mr. Wain-
wright,the solicitor to the magnets, consented to the
bankrupt being released.
In opposition it was urged that this was a case where the
bankrupt ought to be required to find substantial
hail. it was said that considerable difficulty had
arisen in effecting his arrest, and that, as he
bad formerly resided abroad, ho would probably
go again beyond the jurisdiction of the court.
}or the bankrupt it was said that he was willing
to state upon oath that he intended to remain in this
weeny until he had completed his bankruptcy ; he had
been in prison several weeks, and if ordered to had bag be
would have to go back to Dorchester gaol, and be subjected
to unnecessary inconvenience and further imprisonment, as
notice of the sureties would have to be given.
The learned Commissioner said he could not grant the
release. except upon the bankrupt entering into his own
recogoiaances for W. and finding two sureties for 1501.
each that he should attend the sitting to be held under the
bankruptcy. His Honour observed that the bankrupt bad
been arrested • long way from his own residence, and it
was a case in which some security ought to be given that
be would attend when necessary.

should wait for government intervention. There is capital
enough in the great centres of manufacturing and mining
industry to found and endow the appropriate eatabliah-
went'. It is obvious, however, that a sound general
education must precede technical training. The English
mind and character, if it has often more force, has gene-
rally leas flexibility than that of most continental nations.
It requires, therefore, more varied discipline. The suc-
cess of our schools of design shows how quickly training
may create sensibility ►nd skill. In such schools as we
wait for, the moat dangerous errors of the Trades' Unions
would be practically combatted.

course of the morning, and they were most cordially
received by the members present, with whose atten-
tions they appeared to be highly gratified. This
compliment to the Stock Exchange was heartily
appreciated by all the members present. The funds
are stationary ; and in railways the only prominent
feature has been some fluctuations in Brighton
stock. Foreign stocks and miscellaneous securities
are unaltered,and in some cases rather dull in tone.

The discount market is quiet, with very full
supplies of money. The terms are generally quoted
at 2 per cent., being per cent below the Bank
Iniititaum, and there appears, in the absence of
business, to be a more general disposition to take
first class bills at 1 per cent. On the Stock Ex-
change the terms for short loans are to per
cent.

The Tasmanian, from the West Indies, has
brought 195,0001. in specie, and the Palmyra
71,0001. from New York. A cable telegram states
that the steamers which left New York on Satur-

of London has 200,0001. on board.
The directors of the Colonial Company (Limited)

The bankrupt was a cheesemoeger and provision dealer,

The accounts, prepared by Messrs. Hart Brothers, are
extremely voluminous, and disclose a total liability of

unsecured creditors, nearly all for goods supplied. The
assets are returned at 2,748/. in good debts, and 4,215/.
in property ; property held as security 5,8441.
The debtors to the estate are upwards of 500
in number. There are bad debts to the amount of
6,'..477/.. of which 4,572/. is stated to be due from the
bankrupt's son, G. Osborne, jun., also bankrupt.
It appearing that the accounts had only been filed on
Saturday last an adjournment was necessarily ordered.

AUlt GUESTS.

All estimates must be highly conjectural, and
bad weather may be nearly equivalent to a countermand,
but the Times expects the public to rush to Spithead on
Wednesday in numbers almost unmanageable—pro-
bably 10,000 Londoners alone expecting the rail-
ways to provide safe and rapid carriage. The sooner
these people get to the London terminus the better, but
the journey there will be easy compared with the return,
and the Times draws a sad picture of what the ordinary
Londoner will have to endure unless he is much more for-
tunate than the ordinary Londoner who saw the naval
review either before or after the Russian war. One sug•
gestion, !!1. r!t;" ^Ant".rne.l may receive with
balClit, is that they observe complete punctuality. The
special trains for various favoured bodies are flied at early
hours, but if, being ready at the appointed minute, they
continue waiting indefinitely for illustrious personages too '
great to be left behind, it is evident the line will be blocked
during the most precious hours, whether in the morning or
at the return in the evening.
The Doily Nears thinks we have some reason to look
with complacency on the motives which stirred the nation
on the visit of Garibaldi and the arrival of the Princess of
Wales, and which are now securing a popular welcome to
our Belgian guests. The latter come to us as soldiers,
but as soldiers vowed only to defend their homes.
and claiming brotherhood with us because they,
like us, have no dreams of conquest, but only a
firm determination to live or edie as freemen.
It is the march of civilisation, the growth of self-respect,
the recognition of law, the advancement of education, the
purification and elevation of public opinion, which are
symbolised in the idea of a citizen army. All these we
know to be meant by the institution of a volunteer
soldiery among ourselves, and we hail with delight the
evidence that these ideas have penetrated and been recog-
nised abroad as well. Citizen soldiers are the strength of '
the oonititution and the safeguard of independence—in
both capacities we bid our Belgian visitors God speed.
Never, says the Telegraph, not even when Queen Vic-
toria scored the first bull's-eye at the national butte, has
the Wimbledon Camp presented to the spectator a scene
no brilliant and animated es that which characterises this
year of festivals. London has been called a province of
houses, and the Surrey heath is a city of canvas. It com-
binge the salient features of a military encampment and a
racecourse, with strange rivals for the Grand Stand. The
excellence of the shooting has been literally marvellous.
No man ever dreamed that the Enfield rifle could be made
to hit with such accuracy. What has been accomplished
At Wimbledon only pique, us to expect more. The signs
of progress are manifest, and we look for similar triumphs
on a wider field. These interviews between nations sug-
gest advancement towards a nobler period, when disci-
pline and efficiency, directed by statesmanship, shall se-
cure something like a common alliance among the families
of men.

PARLIAMENTARY DEPOSITS.

The select committee of the House of Commons
appointed to join with the select committee appointed by
the House of Lords to consider the act 9 and 10 vic. c. 20,
and the standing orders of both houses in relation to parlia-
mentary deposits, and the completion of r►ilways within
a prescribed time, and to report what alterations it is ex-
pedient to make therein for the present and for the ensu-
ing session, have agreed to the following first report:—
"That this committee is of opinion that it is desirable
that a common standing order should be agreed on. That
such standing order should aim at making the system of
deposits sufficient for securing the completion of lines
within a prescribed time, and for compensating parties
aggrieved by the failure of the company to carry out its
undertaking. The committee are therefore of opinion,
that while it is uncertain what such order may require, it
is expedient that the progress of bill of the present session
should no longer be delayed, but be allowed to proceed,
subject to the conditions required in former sessions.

NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATIONS-(THIS DAY.)
The common common this morning presented much the
same appearance as it did after the presentation of
the prices by the Prince of Wales on Saturday
afternoon, and in place of the smoothness of o bowling-
green hitherto seen it had more the aspect of a ploughed
field or a morass in some of our most fenny
districts. When there was an absence of mud of
several inches in depth, there was an accumula-
tion of water which even the 'pony grass on the
common had failed to absorb. She tents, although
in nearly every case they were trenched round,
were surrounded by ponds of water, and approach to
them could only be effected with considerable difficulty. In
the programme for the day it was stated that the
meats for the special prizes for Belgians had been deal=
consequence of the rain, and it was only a reasonable step
to be taken, as the rain at the time this was written was
falling very heavily, and it was quite a task to wade to the
firing points.
The business of the day, notwithstanding the pelting of
the pitiless storm, commenced at the usual hour, the first
being the practice of sighting by the GO competitors for
the queen's Prize in the second stage of 800, 900, and
1,000 yards, which will be shot for to-morrow.

WORKHOUSE DIETARIES.

A quarterly meeting of the Metropolitan Poor-
law Medical Officers' Association was held on Saturday
evening at the Ship Hotel, Charing-crow, for the forma-
tion of uniform dietary tables for all classes of workhouse
inmates, to be submitted to the Poor-law Board, and re-
commended for adoption in all the metropolitan work-
houses. Dr. Wares, of the Strand Union, presided.
It was subsequently resolved :—" That the dietary
table proposed for the metropolitan workhouses now
read be received and adopted; and that a copy
thereof be sent to the Poor-law Board, the metro-
politan inspectors, the boards of guardians, and the work-
house medical officers in the metropolitan district ,• and
that the Poor-law Board be earnestly and respectfully re-
quested to take steps to obtain the introduction of the said
dietary table, or other similar dietary table, in all the
metropolitan workhouses."
A discussion followed upon the subject of vaccination,
i in the course of which the system of registration and cer-
tificates was condemned, and the appointment of govern.
ment inspectors to ascertain that children were properly
vaccinated, and to institute prosecutions against parenta
who neglected or refused to have their children
vaccinated, was advocated by Dr. Arinarws, who moved :
"That in the opinion of this association the government
Vaccination Bill, depending as it does upon a machinery
of certificates, registration, and penal clauses (which latter
practically are never enforced), ts not calculated to swum
the vaccination of the population, or for the prevention of
small pox ; and this association is desirous of recording its
opinion that no vaccination bill will prove effective which
does not provide for (1) adequate payuient to the public
vaccinations ; (21 efficient inspection of the results of vac-
cination ; and (3) compulsory prosecution of wilful
offenders against the law.'
This was seconded by Mr. BENSON Basso.
It was also resolved:—" That a copy of the report of the
council and of the above resolutions be sent to the l'oor-
law Board ; and that the thanks of the association be pre-
sented to the officers and council for their services during
the past quarter ; and to the president, for his conduct in
the chair at this nieetiug."
The following medical officers were present, meet of
whom took part in the discussion :—Dr. Andrews, Ful-
ham ; Mr. Benson Baker and Dr. Thomas, Marylehone ;
Dr. Rogers, Strand ; Dr. Duilfield, St. Margaret, West-
minster • Dr. King, Camberwell ; Mr. J. Clarke, Shore-
ditch ; Dr. K Jones, Sydenham • Mr. Defreis, Bethnal-
green ; Dr. Simmondi, Newington ; Mr. Frost, Kensing-

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

(Before Mr. Payne, Deputy-Andatant Judge.)

A respectable.looking woman, who gave the name of
Mary Ann Woodward, aged 27, was indicted for an im-
pudent robbery in Carey-street, Chancery-lane.
Mr. Henry Tenney, living in the Clapham-road, and a
coach builder, said that on the morning of the Bth inst.
he wan with • friend in Carey-street, Chancery-lane, when
the prisoner came up to him. He stopped to speak to her,
and while doing so he discovered that she had very cleverly
snapped his watch from the bow. His friend held the pri-
soner until a policeman came, when she implored him not
to give her in charge, as it was the only means she had of
getting her living. Prosecutor refused to let her go, re-
marking that it was a very funn way to get her living.
Evan,, police-constable 127 1, said he heard cries of
" Police," and upon running up found the prosecutor hold-
ing the prisoner. He charged her with robbing him, when
the prisoner accused him of robbing her. When taken to
the station the watch wan found upon her.
Mr. Peter Burton, who was with the prosecutor, corro-
borated his evidence. Ho was with ham when be charged
the prisoner with robbing him. She must have taken the
watch in an instant.

The jury found the prisoner Guilty.
Mrs. Howe said the prisoner was an old thief, and now
out upon a ticket of leave. Her respectable appearance
deceived a great many people. She had suffered several
terms of imprisonment for similar robberies to this one.
She was tried at the Mithllesex Sessions in March, 1860,
when she gave the name of Emma Godwin, and was sen-
tenced to three years' penal servitude for larceny from the
pewit'. She was again tried at the Middlesex Seesaw:awn the
ftth December, 1862, for a like offence, when she was sen-
tenced to penal servitude for six years. She was well-
behaved in prison. It will be seen by the above statement
that the prisoner has had two tickets-of-leave, and been
let out a long time before her sentences had expired.
The prisoner pleaded bard for his lordship nut to send
her back again to penal servitude.
Mr. Payne—l suppose she will not get another ticket-
of-leave.

A Prison Warder—l dare say she will, my lord, as she is
very well-behaved in prison.
Mr. Payne said the lowest term to which he could
sentence her would be for seven years' penal servitude,
which was the sentence of the court upon her.

NAVAL OINFICERA' WHISKERS. —The following
circular letter, signed " Henry G. Lennox," has just been

my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to acquaint
you that they desire to draw the attention of commanders-
in-chief and senior officers to a custom, which appears to
be somewhat prevalent in a. fleet, of officers wearing
whiskers of such inordinate size and length as to resemble
beards, which latter are prohibited by the printed instruc-
tions. The regulations of the naval genial require that
any such irregular habit should be prevented, and that
officers should be permitted only to wear the same length
of whiskers as the seamen and marines under their divi-
sional superintendence."

to Addle-street, but could not find the place ; and on
tilting inquiry wu told that there was a newly-fitted-up
warehouse in Phillip-lane, and perhaps it might be the
lame Linn that had removed there. He found the new
Manses ; but there was no name up. The carman went
