GAS EXPLOSION AND DESTRUCTION

OF PROPERTY.

Between the hours of eight and nine o'clock on Wed-
nesday night a gas explosion, attended with a destruction
of property to a considerable amount, occurred in the
Borough-road, Southwark. From information gathered
on the spot, it appears that for some time past No. 43,
Borough-road, had been open as a surgeon's, and rented
by Mr. Newham, up to a few days since, when that
gentleman expired. The funeral took place on Monday
last, and on the following day the whole of the stock in
trade and household furniture was removed. Shortly
after eight o'clock on Wednesday night the inhabitants
of the surrounding neighbourhood were alarmed at hear-
ing a loud report, and on hastening to the spot, found
the whole of the extensive shop front blown into the
roadway, together with the shutters and their fastenings.
On the arrival of Mr. Inspector Squires an examination
of the premises was made. It was discovered that
the windows of the first floor, both back and front,
were completely shattered; the other windows at the back
of the house shared the same fate, and the door leading
to the back yard was blown some distance off and smashed
to atoms. A great quantity of the brickwork as high
as the first floor was torced out, and the staircases and
ceilings of the rooms entirely demolished; in fact, the
house stands in a tottering condition. It is supposed
that since the removal of the goods from the house the
gas had escaped from the pipe leading from the meter to
the shop, and a few minutes before the explosion Mrs.
Newham's servant entered the house, and on striking a
match the gas ignited, and caused the destructive explo-
sion. As soon as expedient, a constable entered the
house, and found the servant lying insensible in the pas-
sage, but happily she had only fainted, and was not in
the lease injured. A man coming out of an adjoining
shop was knocked down by the shutters, but was only
slightly bruised. Fortunately the building, which was
empty, was insured.

SMOKE CONSUMPTION.
In treating of the subject of smoke consumption,
and its desirability, we have often recurred to the ne-
cessity of considering its results as regards one of the
very objects in view—the health of the community;
for, however injurious to the health smoke may in
itself be, assuredly carbonic acid gas, the result of
" smoke consumption,. 15 a still more deadly evil,
unless special and efficient means be at the same time
taken to get finally rid of so dense and dangerous a
gas, which, though it ascends while heated, falls as
it cools, and. will run, nearly as water does,
into every cavity, deluging streets and cellars, dis-
placing the lighter air we breathe, and doing deadly
mischief, if in such superabundant quantity as
~ smoke consumption, " extensively carried out in
towns, added to the vital production of it, necessarily,
from the lungs of the population, could not but pro-
duce. As for the law of the mutual diffusion or
solution of gases, doubtless, wherever there is
time afforded for such mutual diffusion, the mig-
chief must be mitigated, but so long 0
we know that a pailful of carbonic acid gas can
actually be poured out of one pail into
another,
and be thus made to completely displace the air o
lona itehre,
empty pail and to fill it just as water would,
w
con-
fess that we have not sufficient confidence in the alleged
.
universal law of the mutual diffusion or solution of
gases, to believe that dozens of furnace chimneys
(keeping out of the question any
farther extension of
the principle) vomiting forth continued streams of car-
bonic acid gas are a safe adjunct to a town, far less a
sanitary improvement. Observe,, we do not therefore
advocate the suppression of the smoke Consumption"
movement : far from it. What we merely desire to
point out is the absolute necessity of
at the same time
considering and adopting some Special and efficient
ridof
llyegarebttoinnr gas thus to be c acid so dangerous a cora -
mmoeadni, ofy
a sfina
the
manu-
factured by wholesale—some direct and proper issue
of it into the common sewers, after being cooled ; or
at all events some proper drainage or disposal of it
away altogether from the vicinity of human abodes
and human lungs.—Builder.

PROPOSED STATUE TO THE DUKE OF BRIDGE-
WATER, AT MANCHESTER.-it iS expected that so soon as
the statues about to be erected in Manchester to Sir Robert
Peel and the Duke of Wellington have been completed, the
Earl of Ellesmere will present the town with a memorial of
the great Duke of Bridgewater, whose canal and other works
so much tended to the earlier prosperity of Manchester. It
is stated that the Noble Earl intends to procure a handsome
and costly statue, and one in every way worthy, as a work
of art, to rank with those about to be erected to the states-

AN EXTRAORDINARY SALE OF FARM STOCK.--
The predictions of the " farmers' friends" were never more
completely falsified than on Thursday, at the sale of Mr.
Moon's stock at Keliand Barton, in the north of Devon.
There was a numerous gathering of agriculturists from the
neighbourhood and distant parts, and tae oldest farmer pre-
sent never remembered higher prices ever having been given
for farm stock. The competition throughout was most
spirited. The stock consisted of 80 choice Leicester ewes,
25 sows and 15 boar pigs, 4 oxen, 5 heifers, 1 Devon bull,
and several horses. The animals were in fine condition.
Were Fisher Hohbs's improved

) were next sold. The first sow realised 151. 155.;

the rest Were sold at proportionately high prices. Two boar
pigs fetched 261. ss. and 171. 6s. 6d. The proceeds of the
sale were extraordinary, and far exceeded the most sanguine
expectations of all interested.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT SPITALVELDS
CHURCIL—At a late hour on Wednesday night, 31r. W. J.
Payne, the deputy-coroner, held an inquest at St. Thomas's
Hospital, touching the death of Frederick Martial, aged ten
years, lately belonging to the parochial school of Spitallields

Church. Jonathan Wheelhouse, one of the school boys, de-
posed that on Sunday evening, about six o'clock, deceased
went to the church in Spitalfields,. Witness was on the top
of the gallery stairs, and deceased, on his arrival, commenced
performing various evolutions, standing on his head and

LISATII IN A CHURCH AT EDINBURGH.-The fore-
noon service in Dr. Peddie's Church, Bristo-street, was on
Sunday last interrupted by an event which illustrated, in a
very remarkable manner, a subject not unfrequently enforced
from the pulpit—the uncertainty of human life. About half-
past eleven o'clock, while a respectable man, upwards of
eighty years of age, of the name of Dickson, and by trade
a cabinet maker, was turning over the leaves of his bible,
lie suddenly fell down and expired! He was immediately
removed to the vestry, where several medical men, members
of the congregation, used every effort for resuscitation, but
in vain.—Edinburgh Advertiser.

SAILING OF AUSTRALIAN VESSELS,-- During the
past week four of the emigrant ships laden with emigrants
for Australia, have left our docks. The Tancred, 500 tons
burthen, one of. Mr. Henry Fox's line, sailed on Saturday
last. The Ben Nevis, 3,000 tons, belonging to Messrs. Pil-
kington and Wilson's line, sailed on Sunday. The Sha-
kamexon, 2,500 tons, belonging to Mr. James M'Henry, is
now in the river, and from her beauty of proportion and
frigate-like appearance, has attracted universal admiration.
She is chartered for government. The Catherine Mitchell,
900 tons, belonging to Mr. J. S. De
These
line, is also in
the river, and is a beautiful craft. lime vessels are going
to sea a little sooner than their charterers would have desired,
and probably at some inconvenience to them, owing to the
circumstance that the new Emigration Act coming into
operation on the Ist of October, their fittings, &c., would
have had to be remodelled to comply with its requirements,
if they had remained in port after that date,—Lireipool
Standard.

TIIE ScrtEw-STEAMER GLAscciw.—The quickest
western passage ever made by a screw-steamer has been
performed by 1119 fine vessel, the time being 12 days 19
hours, thus eclipsing the Great Britain's last run across to
America. The shortest eastern trips to Europe by the same
kind of steamers were made by these two vessels; the Great
Britain accomplishing the voyage in 11 days 6 hours, and 45
minutes, and the Glasgow in 12 days and 10 hours.---Liver-
pool Times.
