It is also said that the English squadron in the

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(nom ova OW

PARIS, TUESDAY EVEIRDCG.

It is curious that the Pays, an anti-Italian
journal, and the Opinion Nationale, hitherto the
warmest advocate of all the Parisian press for
Italian unity, have both leading articles headed
" Peace or War," and both come to the same con-
clusion, that Italy must postpone the acquisition of
Venice.

The Bourse opened with some firmness, but
afterwards became very heavy, chiefly owing to a
fall in the Credit Mobilier. It was rumoured that
the latter establishment had refused to make fur-
ther advances to some building contractors in
Paris ; that the latter were likely to fail, and that
the failure would involve the Mobilier in a very
heavy lone. It was also said that the Emperor
had sent an accountant to investigate the affairs of
the Credit Mobilier. The shares fell 20fr. The
Rente fell loe. for cash, and 10c. for account,
closing at the lowest prices of the day, 67fr. and
67fr. sc. Railways were all lower.
The rumour is set about that Prince Napoleon
and his wife the Princess Clothilde may shortly go
to Turin.

Last evening there were symptoms of a thaw,
and the side streets of the Boulevards and the Rue
Riven were quite dirty. The frost took up again,
however, before morning, and the skating in the
Bois do Boulogne to-day was capital. Extraor-
dinary pains are taken to keep the ice in good con-
dition. The snow or rather rime is carefully
swept away, and men arc employed with fire
engines to water the ice, so that a perfectly glassy
surface may freeze. The " awkward squad," of
course, forms the majority of the performers, but
their mishaps are less laughed at than they would
be in London, and so they are encouraged to im-
prove in an art which, though of no great diffi-
culty, cannot be acquired without practice. The
Count de Moray, au accomplished skater, is fre-
quently on the ice ; his countess, although for a
grande dame she gets along very respectably, dis-
appoints those who expect to find a Russian lady
quite a proficient. The Emperor once appeared
among the crowd of skaters last week, and pushed
the imperial prince before him in a sledge. All
the swans and ducks who habitually live on the
lake are congregated together in one corner, where
the ice is continually broken to give them a place
to swim about

Tho town of Neustra, in the county of the same
name, in Hungary, has been the theatre of ► very remarkable
patriotic dentoteitratiou. The old honreds of the place, that
is,the men who formed part of the national army in 1848.9,
assembled in their uniforms, and gave a grand serenade to
Count Lajas Karolyi (not the same personage as the noble
of Pesth), fo-ixpan of the county. They moreover pro-
claimed the count, amidst deafening acclamations,
honred (honorary honred). After this ceremony they
paraded the town, and their appearance in the national
uniform, which was so long prescribed, excited immense
enthusiasm, and drew tears from not • few. The cries
of "Miro it ka:a r and "Rijn' a azabadany
(" Hurrah for the country !—hnrrab for liberty !") were
loud and long, and the hoßreda, one and all, declared th►t in
spite of their wounds and fatigues, they were ready again to
take arms for the national cause.
. _ _

Tobacco, in Hungary and in Italy, has been the
cause of considerable rioting of late. There wan a san-
guinary row at Nagy Pores, in the neighbourlexel of Pesth,
on the sth of January. A farmer was found belling some
bundles of the plant grown on his own farm, as used to be
the common practice before Schwarteenberg and Bach upset
all the immunities of the kingdom. A fiscal agent wanted
to arrest him, and a man was Mot by the gauger. The peo-
ple of that populous town rose in defence of the fanner.
Tbe troop! were out, and seven or eight killed.
The Mayor of Strasbourg, Coulaux, has issued
an order that all bulls one year old should have an iron
ring in their nose to be held by, as "such animals are apt
to break loose among peaceable citizens." The order is
connterined by Mignelet, prefet du Ibis Rhin.
M. FECHTZR, THE ACTOH.—M. Feebter, the
actor, some time ago took on lease, at 2,000[. a year an
apartment on the ground-floor of the house, No. 20. rue de
Hamlin. At the back of the house is a garden, part of
which was specially reserved for M. Pechter, the rest being
for the use of the other occupiers. On Saturday M.
Feehter brought an action before the Civil Tribunal against
his landlord, M. Mirabel-Chambaud, to have theleasodecisred
null and void, ea the ground that a large tree which stood
in his garden when he hired the apartment had been cut
down, as had also • quantity of shrubs, and the oomiequence
was that he was deprived of the pleasure of studying his
parts beneath the tree, and was, moreover, exposed in his
rooms to the inconvenient glare of the sun. The landlord.
in reply, after expressing surprise that the actor should
have been in the habit of studying his parts beneath a tree.
said be had cut down the tree in compliance with the
wish of the occupiers, and after communicating with
rneLlet.Fechter, who made no objection. He ridiculed the
idea of any one complaining of having too much sun and
light in Paris, and said that the real reason why Pechter
wished to be relieved of his lease was that he loot obtained
a long engagement in England. and did not like to pay rent
for an apartment in Paris which be would not occupy. The
tribunal, however, held that the grievan,es Feebter.d w•-re
leaHimate, 41oelated the leao: ..t a. ea.'s. an,: t.le

NAPLIA da.s.9.

The remainder of the British Legion 150 in
number, under the command of Captain Davidson,
left yesterday morning for Genoa by the Ettore
Fieramosca, a government vessel. " I inspected
the accommodation," said the writer, a military
man, to me, "and found all satisfactory. There
now only remain Lieutenant Dowling's company
and the sick." That they have been sent off so soon
after the complaints which I made to you last week
may be attributed to the strong expression of feel-
ing on the part of British residents, and especially
to the exertion's of our respected chaplain, the Rev.
Giles Pugh, and of Mrs. Lydia Whyte. Both, I
believe, and certainly the latter, have visited their
own countrymen in Salerno, and distributed
amongst them clothes and money.
I have just heard, in reference to the expected
demonstration on the morning of the Bth, that it
proved a failure in consequence of the arrest of the
' chiefs of the movement on the day before. In fact
on Monday afternoon 95 officers and 18 superior
officer, were arrested, together with many civilians.
Extensive correspondence has been discovered, and
arms directed to Colonel Babalunga, so that the
authorities are pretty. well in ion of the
threads of the conspiracy. Sti the fixs reaction is
troublesome, and in some parts formidable, as in
the Abruzzi, where the government has been com-
pelled to send a strong force. Again I say the
French are responsible in a great measure for these
Sires which are continually bursting out; for but
for them Francis 11. would be no longer in Gaeta,
and the strongest hold of reactionism would be
destroyed. General Ruggiero was brought in
under arrest on Monday, and will be tried by
court-martial. He it was who led the Neapolitan
troops into the Roman States.
JAN. 10.
Yesterday we had a fresh importation of the
mobilised National Guard of the north of Italy,
being a portion of a battalion from Turin, and
another from Milan. They are very fine looking
men. Besides these we have already received two
other battalions—one from Florence and the other
from Bologna—which have been sent into the inte-
rior, and I believe that the destination of the new
arrivals will be the same. Towards the end of the
month a battalion of the National Guard of Naples
, will leave for the north.

FEARFUL ACCIDENT ON THE MANCHESTER,
SHEFFIELD AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAIL-
WAY, REAIi LINCOLN.

A serious railway accident, attended with losi of
life, and injury to several persons, happened on the Man-
chester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, near to Greet-
well, Lincoln, on Monday evening last. From all we have
been able to gather, it seems that the 7.45p.m. passenger
train entered the cutting at Greetwell a little behind its
time. On nearing the Lincoln end the tire of the engine.
wheel came off, the engine ran off the rails, dragging the
carriages after it, and ran into the bank, which at
this pant is from six to eight fret high, and then
turned over on its side. The cleaner, Frederick
Taylor, of New Holland, fell off, and the engine
fell upon him, the lower part of his body being
underneath. Of course he was killed upon the spot, but
his bodwas not extricated until 6 o'clock the following
(yesterday) morning. The engine-driver was thrown upon
the hedge, and his head was severely cut. The tender was
thrown upon its side in such a position that it formed an
arch, under which the stoker crept, and so escaped unin-
jured. After the tender were three fish trucks, all of which
were thrown over, and the contents of the vans were strewed
about in all directions. Immediately following the fish
tracks were the passenger carriages, in the first of which
were several paisengers. On the seat nearest the
engine was Mr. Clarke, of Horncsatle, whose NMI
was sitting in another part of the carriage. The passen-
gers were first made aware that something bad gone wrong
by hearing a loud noise and feeling a sudden jerk. Mr.
Clarke at once jumped over the seat in front of him, and bad
no sooner done so and reached the centre of the carriage
than the end was forced in, Mr. Clarke, jun., having his
legs meet severely lacerated. The father escaped with a
few bruises. Upon the accident being made known in
Lincoln the station master, Mr. Hawkins, at once sent for
Mr. Septimus Lowe, surgeon who with assistance pro-
ceeded to the scene of the disinter. Shortly after' the
injured man was brought to Lincoln and taken
to the Lion Hotel ; the wounds of the driver were
dressed in the waiting room of the station. Mr. Clarke
having been examined, it was found that no boner were
broken, but the left thigh was torn from the knee to the
hip. Hundreds of people left Lincoln yesterday morn.
jog to view the scene of the accident. The place where
the engine left the rails is very visible, although the
indentation of the wheels is very alight. The opposite
side rails were much bent by the traiu running over, but
the rails upon which the train was travelling are perfect,
The carriages, flab, Sic., were strewn about in all directions,
whilst the engine and tender remained resting upon the
bank side, where it bad fallen. An inquest will be held
anon the body of the unfortunate engine cleaner this day.

ANO7IIIIR ACCIDILTi ON TIM BLANC H ESTER, SHEN-
YIELD AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAtt.wAT.—AsingularrailwayaoCl-
dent occurred on Saturday evening on the Manchester,
Sheffield, and Lincolnshire line, between Penistone and
Huddersfield. A passenger train, consisting of three car-
riages and a brake van, left Pcnistone, for Huddersfield, at
9.26, being due at the latter place at 10 o'clock. According
to an eye.witnesa, the train was about half a mile in the
Cumberworth tunnel, • short distance from the Derby Dale
station, and was proceeding at a speed of from 30 to 35 mike
an hour, when the train ran off the line. The carriages
became detached from the engine, which appeared to have
jumped off the down line, thereby breaking loose from the
camera. After rushing a distance of about 30 yards in
advance, the engine came to a stand still, with its leading
wheels reared on to the metals of the up line thus com-
pletely blocking up both lines of rails. After leaving
the rails the whole train appeared to have run
• distance of 130 yards, tearing up the metals of
both lines, and corning to a stop in a transverse
position, thirty yards behind the engine. Joeeph Handley,
the guard, was thrown down in his carnage by the first
shock, but not one of the passengers sustained tiny injury.
The guard desired them to keep their sesta, anti ran beck
to the Derby Dale station for assistance. A tele-
graphic communication was instantly made to Shef-
field, which was promptly attended to by Mr.
Sharpe, principal of the locomotive department
at that place, who shortly afterwards arrived on
the stone of the accident with an engine and &Ludy of work-
men. Mr. Sscre, the engineer of the line from Manchester,
also arrived within a short time with another engine *adulate
workmen, who immediately set to work to clear the
Meanwhile the passengers, who showed great firmness and
presence of mind, were conducted through the tunnel by
the guard, and by the aid of • single lamp they managed
to pick their way in safety through the slippery road. The
down line was not cleared until eight o'clock on Sunday
morning. The engine itself was very little damaged. but
all the carriages were more or less damaged, and the brake
van was a good deal smashed. The cause of the accident is
not stated.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE LANCASHIRE AND
YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.—About eleven o'clock on Monday
night an engine and tender were employed on the Liver
pool Dock branch of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Rail-
way in shunting some waggons upon a high level platform
(supported by iron girders), when by some means the engine
asd tender got upon the platform. It was not, however,
calculated to bear their weight, and two of the girders
giving way a portion of the platform with the engine sod
tender fell, with a dreadful crash, into the street, a dip-
tanos of upwards of twenty feet. The fireman (John Tur
ner) wee jammed between the engine nab tender and killed
almost immediately, and the driver, Edward Paemin wag
very much scalded. Piuspain has been removal to the
Northern Hospital. The body of Turner was extricated
with some difficulty from beneath the machinery and
timber under whisk it was buried.

RAILWAY RESPONSIBILITY IN FRANCE.—An ac-
count was given in October last of a ballast train having
run into • passenger train in the tunnel of Rilly La 3lon-
tagne, between Epernay and Rheims, on as embraucliment
of the Eastern Railway and of twenty passeugem
being more or leas injured. On a judicial investigation
being made the conclusion was come to that the acci-
dent would not have occurred it, as aired by the regu'
lations, Is telegraphic apparatus had been phiced at the
entrance of the tunnel to indicate the precise position of
each train missing through it. Accordingly the low authori-
ties of Rheims instituted a prosecution against M. Vtiigner.
peseuger train, and also against the station-
engineer of the line, one Poirier, the chief guard of
the
master and a breskaman, as responsible in different degrees
for the accident. The trial took place before the Tribunal
..f Correctional Police of that city, three days back. M.
Vuigner, on behalf of himself and fellow -accused, said
that the regulations relative to a telegraphic ap-
i.ratus in the tunnel were excessively vague, and
that, besides, at the time of the accideut, he
was engaged in making experiments to ascertain the bit
that could be chosen. The tribunal acquitted the station-
master and the bred:mean, and eouderni,ed N. vuitocr
and Poirier, each to a month's imprisonment ; the former,
besides, to pay a fine of 1,000 fr., and the latter :Mfr.. the
railway company being declared responsible for the payment
of the money.

rxra. BOILER EXPLOAION Ay • CouJrzy.—On
Monday afternoon lest a boiler explosion occurred at the
Cockehut Colliery, near this town, the property of Messrs.
Aston and Co., and which was unfortunately attended
with fatal consequences. The accident happened between
three and four o'clock, and at the time it occurred •
carter named John Yates, who lived in Temple-street,
was passing within a few feet of the engine house. Some of
the *brio struck him, and he was so severely injured that
it was deemed neomeary to remove him to the Month
Staffordshire Hospital, but he died shortly after his
admission. The amuse-driver bad a miraculous escape.
At the time the explosion took place be was oiling the
gearing immediately over the boiler. Some of the scalding
water struck him in the face and on the right arm, sad he I
fell to the ground, • distanm of 12 or 14 feet. Wbea dim-
covered by his fellow-workmen be was partly
over the pit shaft, and had it not been for the Annlrddid he
bad managed to maintain, he must unquestionably have
fell into the mine. As it was he was comparatively tin.
hum and in all probability he will he able to resume his
employment in the course of a few days. The cause of the'
explosion is said to be unknown, though the general stir-
mist is that it am,. from the unusual thinness of the boiler
plates. Toe engine was self-feeding, and at the time of the
accident the boiler had the ordinary working quantity of
water in it--about 2 feet 11 inches. The boiler, which hell
been several times repaired, has been in use twenty-Ave or
thirty years, and some of the plates are only three six.l
Meath, of en inch thick. It is only right, however, to say
that the proprietors were preparing as qniekly u possible to
put a new one in its place. The force of the explosion drove
the Piler completely out of its bed, cutting portions of it
like a piece of paper. but little damage was

MONEY M4RKE7.-(THLS DAL)

Two o'CLocs.

A fresh fall of per cent. has taken place to-day
in the funds. The chief canoe of depression i°4 the
prevailing anxiety with regard to the position of the
Bank of France. The American advices received by
telegraph to-day appear to have produced rather
a favourable effect than otherwise, private tele-
grams quoting the exchange at New York higher
than in the published despatches, whilst money
had become much easier, and stocks were consider-
ably better.

The share markets to-day exhibit continued
heaviness.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Relates opened at
67fr. 05e.,but receded to 67fr., being sc. lowerthan
yesterday.

Consols are officially marked 911} and for
money, and 914 and a for the account. The present
quotations are 914 to 4 for cash, and 919-16 to 11-16,
or 911, for the 7th of February. Half an
hour ago the price was 914 to r for
the account. The official business report is
as follows :—Bank Stock, 233, 2324 ; Three per
per Cents. Reduced. 914, 4 ; New Three per
Cents., 91,1., 4 ; India Stock, 219, 220 ;
ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 1859, 1004,
; ditto Four per Cent. Debentures, 1868, 934, 1 ;
ditto, 1859, 954 ; ditto Bonds, 13s. dis. ; Exche-
quer Bills, Bse, 9s. dia.
There is no variation of importance in foreign
stocks, which have met with very little business to-
day. Mexican Bonds are flat. The Turkish Loan of
1854 is quoted 704 to 4, and that of 1858, 564 to 4.
Sales are recorded as follows :—Mexican Three
per Cents., 21, 204; ditto for account, 21, 20; ;
Russian Five per Cents., 1044 ; ditto Four-and-
a-Half per Cents., 1860, 904 ; the Spanish Com-
mittee's Certificates, 54 ; Turkish Six per Cents.,
1854, 70g ; ditto for account, 704.
The telegram described the Paris Bourse yesterday
as closing "fiat, on account of an expected rise in
the rate of discount."

Foos o'CLocz.

Consols have improved A to I per cent. since
2 o'clock ; the present quotations are 914 for
money, and 91i, "buyers," for the account.
This expectation may or may not be realised.
In support of the latter view it is urged that the
Bank of France, when they raise their rate of dis-
count, reluctantly follow, and never precede, the
Bank of England. There is ample evidence, how-
ever, of the very unsafe degree of tension which
prevails in financial affairs in France, and which
leads many people to believe that the maintenance
of specie payments by the National Bank will prove
an exceedingly hard task. The immediate prospect
appears to be one of continued pressure upon us
from that quarter.
At Vienna on Monday, the Five per Cent. Metal-
lice were quoted rather better, but the progress of
distrust is denoted by the high rate of the ex-
change-150.
The final instalment of 10 per cent., making 100
per cent. paid, fell due yesterday on the Canada
loan of 2,800,000/. It had, however, been paid in
advance.

About 50,0001. in bar gold was taken from the
Bank yesterday for exportation to the Continent.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were
decidedly firm, and in several instances the rates
were more favourable to this country. Subjoined
is our usual list :

Amsterdam, 3 months, 11.184 to 1 ; ditto 3 days, 11.16
to ; Rotterdam, 3 month', ILIB4 to 19 ; Antwerp,
3 months, 26.474 to 521 ; Hamburg, ma. banoo, 3 months,
13.71 to ; Paris, days'sight. 25.224 to 7; • ditto
3 months, 26.674 to 72.1; Fraaldort-ou-thcolle 3
months, 118 to 1 ; Petersburg (per rouble), 3 months,
344 to ; Vienna, dr. flo., 3 mouths, 15.55 to 60;
Triode, ditto, 3 months 15.55 to 60 ; Madrid, 3 months,
481 to 1 ; Cadiz, 3 mouths, 49 to i ; Leghorn, 3 months,
25.90 to 5; Genoa, 3 =oaths, 25,80 to 90; Milan, 3
months, 25.80 to 90 ; Naples, 3 months, 394 to 4 ;
Palermo, 3 months, 119 to ; Mameina, 3 months, 119 to
1; Lisbon, 90 day% 521 to 4 ; Oporto, 90 days, 53 to 1.
The Mexican dollars by the last packet have not
yet been sold, owing to the absence of demand for
China, both on government and mercantile account.
They will doubtless be disposed of at a considerable
decline from the price obtained for the previous
supply.
In the Liverpool cotton market yesterday 15,000
bales were sold at very full prices.
Messrs. Windsor Brothers, described as mer-
chants and ship and insurance brokers, of Leaden-
hall-street, have stopped payment. Although the
liabilities are not more than about 11,0001., the
liquidation is expected to turn out unfavourably.
In the Bankruptcy Court yesterday there was a
dividend sitting en the case of Messrs. Hills and
Hills, bankers, of Gravesend and Dartford. The
dividend is not expected to exceed 2s. in the pound.
A further adjournment was ordered in the case of
J. G. Sullivan, wholesale boot manufacturer, of
the Borough.
The Brighton Railway dividend is not considered
very satisfactory, being merely at the same rate as
last year, although the receipts have increased con-
siderably.
The shares of the new marine insurance compa-
nies are in demand and rising, in anticipation of
favourable reports at the approaching meetings.
Subjoined are the latest quotations of insurance,
gas, and other shares, as given in the Stock Exchange
list of last evening :
Insuranoe—Globe, 1001 ex div. ; Guardian, 511 ; Law
Fire, 41 ; Liverpool and Lombn Fire and Life, 9 ; Lmdon

The following is au extract of a trustworthy pri-
vate letter, dated Foo-chow the X3rd Nov. :

We have had another disturbance here, or rather a repe-
tition of the affair in last June, with a different result. Than
the Cantonese and West Coast Junk people were the
strongest, and made their own terms with the Foo-chow
men ; but now some of their junks which attempted to enter
the river have been seised and bent, and a large number
of people killed. The attack took place about 15 miles down
the river, and the survivors were brought all prisoners to
Foo-chow, and tortured and beheaded by scores-394 had
been put to death up to yesterday morning, many of them
aloes to and in sight of the Foreign Bongs. If one could be-
lieve they were all pirates one would not so much care, but
I really think that the report given by the Cantonese!, that
many of the junks were fair traders, and the largest proper-
tion.of the people killed, innocent passengers, is correct, and
this makes it very horrible. The attack was so sudden and
violent that the Cantonese are for the time paralysed ; but
the influential portion vow vengeance before long, and they
are strong enough to carry it out. A not very pleasant pro-
spect for us, seeing that there will probably he a riot all
round our houses and Long', and we have on sort of naval
protection. Even the American corvette which was
stationed about ten miles down the river has loft.

TUESDAY EVEIRM.
