MR WILLIAMS, M.P. FOR LAMBETII.—There is,
we are happy to say,
no ground for the report that
Mr Williams, one of the members fur the borough of Lam-
beth, expired at his residence on Wednesday ; nor is there
any truth in the report that the hon. gentleman fell from
his horse in an apoplectic fit. That he fell from his horse is
true, but from this ho has sustained no injury whatever;
and although he is labouring under an illness, the nature of
his malady, says Dr Probert, his medical attendant, is not
that from which any serious consequences are to be appre-
hended. On Wednesday the hon. member was out riding in
his carriage; but yesterday, the weather not being so pro,
pitious, by the advice of his doctor he remained indoors, but
was nevertheless fast approaching eonvalesence,
THE GREAT SHAREBROKING FAILITJE.E AT LITER-
rooL.—An arrangement having been made with the credi-
tors of Mr Robert Byrne, the Liverpool stock and share
broker (who became bankrupt in Sept. last for £560,000)
for the payment of 6s 8d in the pound, the bankruptcy has
been annulled,

THE DESTRUCTION OF SHIPBUILDING YARDS AT
LIVERPOOL.—The fire in the shipbuilding yards at the
Queen's Dock, on Wednesday, is said to have destroyed
property to the extent of £lO,OOO. The workmen's tools
were insured in the Queen Insurance Company for £2OO.
The larger items of insurance were in the Norwich IJuiola
end the 14iyerpoel and Loudon o ;;cee,
