Yesterday, in tLe Court of Queen'e Bench, the
order was made absolute for binding the plaintiff to
give re en.ity for costs in certain casts of pursuing the
Lord Mayor for penalties for acting in his othcial
capacity alter his name hid been struck off the bur-
gess list. It is hoped that this decision will have the
efface*, at klith stopping the disgraceful sy stem of
pirescutirm which has been pereeveied in against Mr.
Reynolds from the viry cammencemeut of his mayor-
alty. A similar motiot was on in the Common Pleas,
but Mr. Justice Ja..kson, feeling some difficulty in
the matter, wished to have it again argued before

the full court.
Mr. John Kent Johnston, the eminent well-known
newspaper and express agent, of Eden Quay, expired
yesterday morning, after a lingering Wefts. The
services of Mr. Johnston in expediting the transmis-
si,m of newspapers between this country and England
have teen Tory great, and were nnivenally admitted.
Notice, have been published by the Board of Teinity
Collegy, intimating their intention to apply to parlia-
ment in the next Whelan for powers to make grants in
perpetuity in certain canes of the college lands, and
otherwise to extend the leasing powers at present
rut sued by the board. This application ben been
fur some tines ar.ticipated ; and it is expected that the
powers sought for will bo the means of materially im-
proving the condition of the people on the vast dis-
tricts which form the college property.
The name of Lord Oronnues appears among these
in whoso cases petitions for sale have been presented
within the hat few days in the Encumbered Estates
commission.
The Tipperary Vindkstor says:
It 13 not unlikely that the vast watts in Limerick, Cork,
stied Tipperary, of a aoldentsa lately in the lemmatised
C21111:1411011 Court, will be redeemed thnugh the interven-
tion of a hymtnial aniline*, of which much bee been .poker
lately. We have heard the law agents of the wealthy fair
one have bete for some days investigating the affairs con.
netted with the property; and that a satiMactory cooclusion

Mr. Vincent Scully, 11. P., in a letter to the Free-
man's Jwarnai, relative to some observations in that
paper an the subject of the excessive: valuation of land
in Ireland, says:
A poor law valuating., based upon sa szcnbitent standard!
of value, although relatively equal, must nneesarily lead
to many *Snout tonriquences. Sash a valuation is
catenated to amment un
dulyd ill
tuition upon Sod.
It tends to deceive ras. But as you rry
justly your,. its wont effect is to delude the landlord,
often en ebventee or non-resident, with an exaggerased
action of the letting value of his prcperty. What I
landlord ever thinks of settieg his lend under the let-
Imp sake, es ascertained b 7 a pebiie poor law valuation, or

(Went or • mot banns character *evened between three and
four o'cloc k this soaring on the London sad North Western
silway, about 11tri e-quarters of • mile from their station
is this town. The occurrence took plies at that portion of
the lice which crusts Lawley-street by means of a viaduct,
and curly opposite to the 't lift" on the Midland Company's
Derby liaa, and only a low yards from the branch which is
'scours' of construction from the London into the Derby
line. At the point when the strident occurred the public
road is spanned by a large central arch, and on either aide are
less .or arches. sou of which are mounded up an,'. tilled with
rubb:sh. It appaln that u the three o'clock a.m. goods
train to London was passing over, en explosion of • most
yiulent character took plain. The engine and tender wen
thrown with great violence from the reds; the er gine-driver
Lad et. kn wen burled over many yards below the crown of
the viaduct, which was shivered almost to atoms. No noise
what Ater wee heard; and up to the present time the
an:dent Is not accounted for beyond the supposition that
the gas pipes which intersect the arches of the else
duct had bonne leaky—that a lure quantity of gee
had in tonsure ena become deposited in all the interstices of
the brickwork and rubbish beneath, end that • cinder from
the firework, as the engine peeled on to the viaduct, caused
the explosion. The mass of brickwork displaced, or entirely
einem aside, is enormous : ens piece was blown •
distance of twenty yards, weighing upwards of thirty
tow. lamenes picnic of the coping stone were cast
Brest diatances in all directions, and the railway for
thirty yards presents the appearance of utter wreak.
Had the accident °attuned in the middle of the day,
when pauer.ger trains were peados over, the loss day,
life must hare b en awful, especially now that a great nine
ber of plate-layers are at work close to the scene of the acci-
dent. Tao stoker was wry seriously injured, but up to this
ennieg be was still alive. The engine driver escaped with
len injury. This afternoon the engine, completely smothered
with groan and building material, was extricated from the
rain, bat the traffic on Ilse line meat for some tine he greatly
Impeded, and the trains delayed, as neither the London,
Liverpool, or Glummer trains can approach within a mile of
the usual station ; to day all the Incase from the trains
was tarried over the nattered masonry, but such have
been the precautions need by the company's caws,
that no aocideet has resulted. Mr. that Mr.
Eborall lure been in constant attendanoe, eo beyond
inconvenience, there is no cattle for fear of any kind. As
soon after as possible the occurrenee of the accident, a tele-
strophic despatch was forwarded to London and Wolverton
to the resident principal officers, and numbers of men have
been employed to-day, making reparations for ascertaining
the exact tzt-•ht of the chimer. The trains have all mired
and deport. d to day an hour beyond their usal time.
