9111.11• L I,UTRAGL UN A CONATABLL

De.eis DineAun, a tall Irishman, was brought up on
remand charged with • brutal assault upon a police-sou-
stable whilst in theemeoution of his duty.

Police-constable Smith. 302 13, who appeal-ea very weak
and had his head bandaged up, said—About 1 o'clock I
WWI on duty in the Leybourne-road, Kentish-town. I kJ
occasion to speak to a prostitute who was behaving in
a disorderly manner with a man under • railway
arch. I sent the man away in one direction and the woman
ur the other. I had scarcely done so when the prisoner,
in company or two other men, came up and asked me
" What the did I interfere with women for."
I told him to go away and mind his own business, when
he gave me a violent blow and knocked me down. lie
ran off and I went after him. He went into • house
and brought out • pair of tongs and gave me •
tremendous blow on the back of my head,
which stupefied me. Another of the men then
struck me on my arms, and the third took away
my staff. I fell, and the two men who have escaped
kicked me on my neck. and I became senseless. If the
mob had not come to my rescue I must have been killed.
I am now not fit for duty.
The above evidence was corroborated by witnesses.
Mr. l'ain cross-examined at some length, but failed to
shake the evidence. _ _ _

Mr. d'Eyncourt committed the prisoner for trial

EXPLOSION AT A COTTON MILL-L 5,000

DAMAGE.

About forty minutes past 6 o'clock yesterday
morning an explosion of a most destructive character took
Ellice at the works of Messrs. iloderinson, Swan, mid Cod-
ng, cotton spinners and manufacturers, Mill-hill Cotton
Works, Livesey, near Blackburn. About 800 hands
are employed in the various processes at the
works, which comprise an extensive building several
stories high, and adjoining it to the west is an
immense weaving shed, containing 790 loom., over
100 yards long and 40 or 50 yards wide, and imme-
diately contiguous • cotton store shed, 40 yards long by
some 14 yards wide. At the north-east corner of this
shed are two boilers of 30-horse power each, partitioned
off from the store by • brick wall. A few months
ago, Mr. Bison, engineer, Oldham, furnished the
firm with an apparatus patented by him, for
heating the water by which the boilers are fed,
previously to entering it. This arrangement con-1
sisted of a series of forty 13-inch pipes or "bottles,"
several feet in length, which were placed in a nest in an
upright position in the store, immediately over the due by
means of which the water was heated. At the time before
named this contrivance exploded with • report like thun-
der, shaking the whole neighbourhood, and causing an
amount of damage to the mill roughly estimated at from
5.0001. to 6,0001. The store shed and boiler house are • heap
of ruins. The mischief done to the weaving shed arose
solely from the failing ditris, which smashed through
the elates and glass on the closely-packed looms
beneath. It is said that the twists in at least 500 looms
have been broken. Fragments of the heating apparatus,
stones )one weighing 5 cwt., and two yards long), the
coping of the shed, an iron steam chest from the boiler-
house weighing 3 cwt., bricks, slates, troken beams, Ac..
fell in • thick shower, penetrating the frail roof in all
directions, and in some ciao at least 100 yards from the
scene of the explosion.
The most wonderful thing connected with the affair is
that, although so many hundreds of workpeople were
engaged in their ordinary occupation in the immediate
proximity, not one life has been lost. Six persons are
reported to have received injuries, but none of these are
of • serious nature. A girl named Brindle, cut on the
head and other parts of her body, was immediately takes
to the infirmary, but she was able during the course of
the day to walk home.

HONEY MARKET.-(77118 DA Y.)

Ova o'Otoca.

The markets for public securities are firm to-
day, but prices generally are quoted the same as
yesterday, in the absence of business. Most of the
dealers are disposed to buy for a rise, in conse-
quence of the more satisfactory tenor of the advice'
from the Paris Bourse, combined with an expecta-
tion that a large portion of the dividends, which will
be payable on the 14th inst., will be re-invested.
Console are without variation, and the movements
in British railway and foreign securities are quite
unimportant. There is less inquiry for the Indian
5 per cent. stock, but the recent advance is fully
maintained.

The discount market presents no new feature,
and the rate for short advances in the Stock
Exchange is unaltered.

Consols are quoted 94} to i for money and next
Tuesday's settlement, and 94 to i for the No-
vember account. The Three per Cents. Reduced
and New Three per Cents. are at 92* to i, ex
div.

The railway market is inactive, but Caledonian
and (beat Eastern stocks are in request, and have
improved to Ito per cent. On the other hand
Great Western is lower. Annexed are the quota.
tions :—Metropolitan, 124 to ; Great Western,
471 to 48 ; London and North Western, 1141 to
f ; Midland, 1201 to I ; Lancashire and York-
shire, 127 to ; Caledonian, 104 to 1, ex div. ;
South Eastern, 681 to 69 ; Great Eastern, 32 to
; Great Northern, 1101 to MI ; ditto A, 1161
to 117 ; London, Chatham. and Dover, 191 to f ;
North British, 321 to 33* ; and Brighton, 54 to e.
In the foreign stock market, Italian bonds of
1861 have improved f per cent., viz., to 461 to g,
while Spanish Certificates have declined to the like
extent, the present price being 14 to 1. The other
speculative descriptions are steady, at the dosing
prices of yesterday. Turkish of 1862 are at 61} to
62f ; ditto 1865, 3ig to 1 ; Greek, 13/ to f ; Spanish
Passive, 191 to f ; Chilian scrip, 1 dis. to prem.;
Egyptian, 1864, 82 to 83, ex div. ; and Mexican,
15 to }.

American securities have improved. The 5-20
Bonds are called 711 to I, showing a rise of t per
cent. ; Erie Railway shares, 41} to ; being 1
better ; and Illinois Central, 761 to 77t—an ad-
vance of #.
Anglo-American and Atlantic Telegraph Eight
per Cent. Preference shares are unchanged—the
former at 17# to 1, and the latter at 3f top.
Very few dealings have been recorded in Bank
shares. Chartered Mercantile of India are 10s.
lower, at 28 to 29, and Alliance flat, 10# to thi
die. London and Westminster are quoted 68 to
69 ; Union of London, 37 to 38 ; Imperial Otto-
man, 1# to 1# dia. ; and London and County, 56
to 56.

Financial shares remain dull, owing to a slight
preponderance of sales. International Financial
are at to 21 dis. ; London, 23 to 21 dia. ;
General Credit, 2! to Zit clic ; and Credit Fonder,
51, to 5* dis.
_ _ _

It is worthy of mention that yesterday, the 4th
of the month, with a total of thirteen
millions passing through, the Clearing House,
and 100 gentlemen engaged, who made over
100,000 entries, every difference was ascertained,
and the balance finally agreed by 11 o'clock this
morning. This speaks volumes for the perfection
of the system, and no less for the accuracy of those
employed.

A memorial to the Italian government is being
prepared by the shareholders of the Imperial Mer-
cantile Credit Association (Limited), with reference
to their claim for upwards of 300,0001. on the
Italian Irrigation (Canal Cmour)Company, now in
bankruptcy.

Two o'cLoci.

Consols are without change, at 94 to 11 both for
money and the Bth inst., and 94 to i for the
new account

The amount of gold taken to the Bank yester-
day was 7,000/.
The China, from Boston, has brought only 1,0001.
in specie.
On Change yesterday afternoon, there was more
demand for bills on Holland and Paris, for account
of firms desirous of remitting the proceeds of
stocks sold here on foreign account during the
recent continental alarm ; and the tendency of the
rates was consequently unfavourable. The Italian
exchanges have risen. The usual list is subjoined :
Amsterdam, 3 mouths, 12.0 to 12.04 ; ditto, short,
