ANOTHER 111 ADE OUTRAGE AT SHEFFIELD.—
Another of those trade outrages which have of late been so
frequent fa Sheffield was perpetrated at an early hour me
Saturday morning, at Boum Works, Milton-street, the
=ftof Marra. Bunting sad Son. A fork grader,
luars Rowan, who has for some doe refused to
Jain the union cousected with his ludo, has during the Oat
fortnight occupied a room at thine works, having left the
wheel when he previously worked, from being there, as be
supposed, peculiarly exposed to each outrages. Between
three and four o'clock on Saturday morning his room fa
the mooed storey was mitered through Ma window by
mesas of a Udder ; sad the mon's glan or. having ben tikes
off the machinery, were =sped together, and set on fire,
some boards having been broken up for the purpose. At 4
o'clock the ladder attracted the attention of the watchmen,
and led to the direcovety of the fire before much damage had
been done. The fire was kindled on the wooden floor of the
room =Mead of in the nary; and but for its early
dU-
covery would probably hays reenbed in a serious °pedigree
Lion. As it wee, Re Smogs was d3ne to the room beyond
the burning of a email hole through the floor. Only a low
months ago a trade outrun was committed in the very same
roam, powder being planed ender the grinding atone, which,
when it exploded, seriously Injured the grinder.
THE LATE GALE ON THE NORTH-WEST COAST.—
Considerable damage has been ceased during the late gals on
the Cumberland oust and in the Solway ; but we are glad
to learn that. ao far es can be auertained no loss of life hes
occurred. The schooner Moths, outward bound from Poet
Carlisle, woe driven from her moorings, and the captain ran
her on shore at Silloth, where she renistas, but the damage
is not serious. The schooner Mary, of Carlyle, was attempt-
' log to proceed up the Solway, but grounded on the west end
of Silloth Back, and immediately began to fill. The crew
got out their boat, but the craft wesalmeetinuantly swamped
I by the heavy era which was running; and signals of distreie
were then hoisted. The tide tieing, the crew were compelled
to take to the rigging, in which pesition they were observed
by the steamer Qom, of Dumfries, which bore down totheir
araistacee. After several leeffeetnal attempts to matte the
poor fellows, the Queen, after the lapse of an hour, succeeded
In taking them on board, though nut until after the mast to
'bk./ they were clinging had been carried away. In falling
the mast struck the mate of the Queen, end severely injured
him; and the mate of the Mary was also much hart by the
same casualty. The Mary and her urge are totally loot. A
Premien barque is also reported to be an shore ; and It is
feared that news of whirr mishap' will yet be rte. iced.
POSSESSION IS NINE POINTS OF THE LAW.—
Some short time ago an ancient tenement on the east side of
the fikinnergate was "condemned" as =wife by the Guild
Court, and ordered to be Mites down, and on Tuesday lad
the work of demolition communed. But the proomdfnp
I soon encountered a very serious obstacle. The old lay, the
' proptistrem of the house, resides in the Snit fiat.
' who positively refused to "flit end remove herself"
' although the house should be pulled down about her
ears ; and nothing daunted there she remained, while her
dotoitil• was laid open, the eecond eery and the front wall
of the first flat being taken down. On Tuesday evening there
she was to be tees occupying the two MOM jot as usual,
but with the aide of the flat entirely awe . Ao=seir.owd

Ou Wednesday, there she was atilt to be found se resolute u

taking down of the crazy old tenement. To all appeerasee
