FATAL ACCIDENT IN A COTTON MILL.—An inquest
was held at Manchester yesterday, before Mr. E. Her-
ford, on the body of Robert Story, aged 47, a card
grinder in the factory of Messrs. WilliamM'Connell and
Co., whose arm had been taken oft by machinery on
Friday last. Story was cleaning the machinery of the
mill in the breakfast half-hour, and had his right arm
between the spokes of a wheel, when the engine started.
A bell was rung a few moments before the engine started,
but Story had become rather deaf, and had not heard it.
His arm was torn off before the wheel had inmle a single
revolution. He shrieked for help, and was taken to the
Royal Infirmary, where he died on Tuesday. The jury
found a verdict that the deceased lost his life accidentally.
A 'meting of the Irish Peat:Company was held yes-
terday, when a report wa,3 presented shoeing a larle
profit likely to be realised from the raising of peat, be-
sides the iron ore found on the company's es'ates. Tile
accounts showed a balance in band of 8491. 12s. To
carry on operations it would be necessary to raise more
capital for which purpose the directors intended to issue
the shares held in reserve.

ALLEGED CAPTURE or A FRENCH TRANSPORT.
The Journal de Saint Petersboury states that on the 2`..'d
a French war transport, the Ajax, grounded on the
shoal near Eupatoria, and' that, in spite of a steamer
which came to its assistance, the captain, and six sea-
men were taken prisoners by some Russian lancers,
sent to the place with two pieces of horse artillery.' The
vessel itself, with its cargo of hay, was burnt.
