PROVISION AGAINST FIRES, &c,

Mr. 13I7TLER asked when it was probable the commis-
sioners appointed to inquire into the Government powder
magazines throughout the kingdom will make their report;
and whether it was the intention of Government to intro-
duce a bill to compel the owners of public buildings to pro-
vide sufficient means of escape in the case of fire?

Sir G. GREY said that a commission, of which Sir John
Burgoyne was the chairman, had been appointed to inquire
into the most efficient means to be adopted for the protec-
tion of life by tho prevention of accidents, not only in
Government magazines, but in other powder magazines
throughout the country.

MADRID, FEB. 11.

In yesterday's sitting of the Congress Senor
Posada Herrera demanded political and adminis-

the emancipation of the blacks in the Spanish pos-

The Council of State has approved the publication

tions of it contrary to the Royal prerogative.

PRESERVATION OP FORESTS AND COMMONS.

Mr. DOULTON7 M.P., pursuant to notice, moved a resolu-
tion to the effect that "it was advisable to preserve the
forests, commons, and open spaces in and near the metro-
polis, and that it be referred to the Streets Committee to
collect and adduce such evidence before the select commit..
tee of the House of Commons on the subject as may tend
to promote so desirable an end, and to report the heads of
such evidence to the Board."

~...-
Mr. LE BRETON seconded the motion, which after a brie
discussion was agreed to.

THE KENSINGTON VESTRY--CHARGES AGAINST THE

METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS.

The Clerk of the Board read a letter from Mr. Green, the
clerk of the Kensington Vestry, to the following effect :
"Kensington Vestry, Vestry-hall, Clerk's
Department, Feb. 9, 1165.
" Sir,—I am directed by the Kensington Vestry to for-
ward to you the annexed extract from the minutes of their
proceedings, and to request you will have the goodness to
lay the same before the next meeting of your Board.—l
am, sirs, yours, etc.,

"R. GREEN, Vestry Clerk.
"J. Pollard, Esq., Clerk, Metroplitan Board
of Works, Spring-gardens."

"Extract of the minutes of the proceedings of the Ken-
sington Vestry on Wednesday, the Bth February, 1865
William Harris Hunt in the chair:--

" The vestry then proceeded to consider the report of
the Main Drainage Committee of the Metropotitan Board of
Works on the evidence given before a committee of the
House of Commons on the sewage of the metropolis, and
some statements which have been made in the metropolitan
vestries and district boards in reference thereto.
" Whereupon it was moved by Mr. Richardson ' that
this vestry, fully admitting that some of the charges made
against the Metropolitan Board of Works are destitute of
foundation, and that others have been successfully rebutted
by evidence, does not consider it necessary to offer any
opinion either in favour or against the policy adopted by
that Board ; but the members of the Kensington Vestry de-
sire to place on record the high sense they entertain of the
ability and integrity of their representative, Mr. Freeman.'
" The motion was seconded by Mr. Sparrow.
" The following amendment was then moved byMr.Brown
and seconded by Mr. Watts :
" That this meeting is of opinion that the said report is
of an incomplete and unsatisfactory nature, and that such
charges ought to have been investigated by an impartial
tribunal, and not by a private committee of the Board, who
without giving notice to the parties making such charges
in order that they might have had an opportunity of sub-
stantiating the same, did adjudicate upon them, and acquit
the Board and its engineer of all blame.'

"A division being called, the vestry divided, whereupon
the Chairman announced the result of such division as fol-
lows :—For the amendment 5, against it 50.
" The Chairman then put the original potion, and de-
clared the same carried, with one dissentient."

LEEDS.

A meeting, called by circular, of the Leeds and

the committee of the Leeds Working Men's Reform
Association were invited to attend, was held at the
Leeds Stock-Exchange-hall on Tuesday afternoon
last, " to consider the desirability of at once bring-
ing before the constituency a second Liberal candi-
date for Leeds." After some discussion it was
unanimously resolved to invite Lord Amberley to
address the Liberal electors at an early day, with a
view of becoming a candidate, along with the pre-
sent Liberal member (Mr. E. Baines), at the next
election; and a deputation of five electors was ap-
pointed to wait upon his lordship with the invita-

shall be reluctantly compelled to relinquish all fur-
ther claims upon them when Parliament is dis_

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,

WESTMINSTER.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY BY A WOMAN.—Rebe teca Martin,
woman about 27 years of age, of slovenly ar pearance, was
charged with stealing a large roll of flannel, value £1 155.,
under the following impudent circumstances o.
Mrs. Emily Spanton, of 43, Rochester-row,, Westminster,
wife of a draper, said that the roll of flannel which was
the subject of prosecution, forty yards in. length, was
standing on a fixture inside the door of the shop with a
number of other things. At about a quarter to six last
evening prosecutrix was sitting in the parlour adjoining
the shop suckling her child, when she saw—the prisoner
step inside the door and pretend to examine some calico.
She then looked around he; and immediately -taking up the
roll of flannel concealed it with her shawl, and' deliberately
walked away. Prosecutrix immediately put down her
infant, and following the prisoner stopp.)d. her three or
four doors off, and told her she had stolen her flannel, and
seized her. The prisoner them forced her self away, and
was endeavouring to escape, when Mr. Bottrill, jun., a
neighbour, secured her, and she dropped the flannel.
Mr. Selfe—Was she sober ?

Prosecutrix—She appeared so.
Prisoner—l had fallen out with my hueband, and went
and got some drink. I have got a baby lying very bad at
home.

Mr. Selfe—That has nothing to do with the charge.
The prisoner now pleaded guilty, saying she supposed
she must have taken the flannel.
Mr. Selfe asked what was known of her ?

The police said nothing. They had no opportunity of
knowing, as she had refused her addres3 until a few
minutes ago.

Mr. Selfe remanded prisoner for inquiry to be made re.
speeting her.

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)
IN RE THE AGRICULTURAL CATTLE INSURANCE COMPANY-
JUDGMENT.

In this case it appeared that the company in question
had been wound up, and that at the time of its formation
the shareholders agreed to retain their shares for 60 years
unless the company were previously dissolved. Seven of
the shareholders, whose liabilities amounted to £lO,OOO,
had been released by the directors on the payment of £4,000,
which was held to be an infringement of the terms of the
contract, and collusively entered into by the directors, who
had not apprised the shareholders at large of the arrange-
ment which bad been made. The case was heard before
the Master of the Rolls, who decided that the shareholders
in question were freed from their liability, their shares
being forfeited by the directors.
The Lord Chancellor, in his judgment this morning,
reversed the decision of his Honour, and ruled that the
shareholders should be restored to the list of contributories.

PER THE TELEGRAPHIC NEWS ASSOCIATION.
ST. PETERSBURG, FEB. 11, 1.55 P.M.
The following is the substance of a reseript just
addressed by the Emperor Alexander to his Minister
of the Interior :

" The Senate does not recognise any legal force
in the Acts of the Assembly at Moscow,
and I also am aware that the Assembly
has touched upon questions which belong to
the imperial initiative. The accomplished reforms
respond to the requirements of the future, and such
a deviation on the part of the assembly from the
sphere of its legitimate powers impedes the realisa-
tion of my projects. I hope to meet with
no further obstacles arising from the action of
the nobility, whose services I fully appreciate,
and for whom I entertain an unshaken confidence."

LIVERPOOL-TUESDAY.

At to-day's market there was a good attendance of town
dealers and of millers from the country. The weather con-
tinuing wet there was an active inquiry for wheat, but the
high prices asked checked sales, and we have only to re-
port a moderato demand for consumption, the improve-
ment of the week being 6d. to Bd. per cental ; there was,
however, a good deal done on speculation. The market
was very firm at the close. Flour met a very ready sale,

HUNTINGDONSHIRE.

A deputation of Huntingdonshire farmers waited
upon the St. Ives bench of magistrates on Monday
respecting the introduction of diseased cattle into
the market.

Mr. Nix, of Somersham Fen, inquired of the
Bench whether they had any power to appoint an
inspector to prevent the admission of diseased cattle
into their market, which was a very large one.
Ile and other farmers saw many diseased cattle in
the market that morning mxed with healthy stock,
and if that were allowed the disease must be
carried upon the farms. It was becoming a serious
calamity, and he was sure the Bench would render
them all the assistance in their power.
The Rev. G. JOHNSTON (chairman of the Bench)
said there was no power that would authorise them
to appoint an inspector. He thought that if a peti-
tion were drawn up and sent to the proper quarter
it would be well considered.

Mr. A. SPERLING (a magistrate) said that an
order had been issued by the Privy Council
respecting the city and neighbourhood of London,
and he had no doubt that if a petition were for-
warded to the Home-office it would be extended
to St. Ives. It would be proper to have a number
of signatures attached to the petition, as it was a
very important matter to close a market.

The Rev. G. JOHNSTON said the magistrates
would send the petition for the deputation with their
strongest recommendations. That would be the
proper course to pursue.

The deputation thanked the Bench, and promised
to wait upon them again on Monday next.

seizure of any cattle that may be pronounced by the
inspector to be diseased. The county agricultural
society as yet has made no stir, but it is expected
that a special meeting will be called on the subject.

WESTMINSTER.

TRYING TO ROAST A MAN ALIVE.-A tall, powerful
black man, who gave tho name of Charles Davis, was
brought up in custody, charged with ill-treating a man and
putting him upon a fire, accompanied with a threat that he
would roast him alive.

William Smith, a poor man, raid—l livo at 30, Old Pye-
street, Westminster, in a lodging-house there, and so does
the prisoner." At about 10 o'clock last night I was sittting
quietly in the kitchen, talking to the woman who had care
of the house, when the prisoner crossed over to me, seized
me by the throat, and much ill-treated me. He struck me
in the face, while he had got hold of my throat and tried
to roast me.

Mr. Arnold—Tried to roast you !
Prosecutor— Yes. lie caught hold of me and put me on
the fire and said he would hold mo there till he roasted me
alive.

Mr. Arnold—What had you dono to him ?
Prosecutor— Nothing whatever.
Mr. Arnold—What injury has been done to you?
Prosecutor—l struggled and got away, but my hands
were burnt, and I was scalded by the largo boiler on the
side of the fire.

Prisoner said he had been drinking freely, and was first
insulted by the prosecutor making some illiberal remarks
about his colour.

Prosecutor—l never said a word to him, or a word about
him. I was not talking about colour, but about something
else. Hero is the woman who manages the house, who
can prove it.
Mary Anne Eastwood—l look after the house for Mr.
Haddon, the proprietor. The prisoner came into the
kitchen last night, where there were other lodgers. I
was talking to the prosecutor. The prisoner deliberately
came up to him, and asked him what he was talking about,
and then he said he would put him on the fire till he was
roasted, which he did.

Mr. Arnold—lie fortunately WAS not roasted at any rate.
What were you talking about at tho time the prisoner
came up ?
Witness—About domestic things— about the houso and
the landlord of it. ' . _
Mr. Arnold—Was anything said about the prisoner or
his colour ?

Witness—Not a word whatever; we wore talking about
Mr. Haddon. When the prisoner asked us what we were
talking about we told him.

James Joyce, 261 13—I was on duty in Old rye-street
last night, and was told that a man had put another on the
fire. I took him into custody.
Mr. Arnold—What condition was he in ?

_
Witness—lio had been drinking, but was not so drunk
but that ho woll knew what he was about.

Prisoner—l know I was drunk, but I was insulted.
Mrs. Eastwood—l can bring all the others. There were
five of them present when we were talking, and they can
prove nothing was said about him.
Prisoner was remanded.

ALARMING RAILWAY COLLISION AT 'MANCHESTER.
—On Monday morning, as the train from Wigan, via
Tyldesley, was coming in at the London and North-Wes-
tern side of the Victoria Station, it was by some mistake
shunted on to a line where a train about to leave for Petri-
croft was standing. The guard of the Wigan train, from
some defect it is said in the brake, was unable to prevent'
the carriages running, at almost full speed, against the
standing train. The crash was like a peal of thunder, and
startled every one on the platform. A. great many pas-
sengers were injured, scratched, cut, or violently shaken,
and the utmost confusion for a time prevailed. The worst
cases were those of Mr. Richard Smith Thompson, of Low
Abbey, near Lancaster, 42 years of age, who was found
insensible, and was at first thought to be dead ; and Mrs.
Mary Ann Newbold, Norfolk-street, Sheffield, both of whom
were iMPlediately taken to the rufirll2ary,

LITERATURE,

THE FORTNIGHTLY REVIEW—we are gratified to
observe, still continues to flourish as a literary en-
terprize. In this respect it has already far more
than simply justified the very favourable anticipa-
tions in its regard, which were frankly avowed by
us at the time of its commencement—namely, upon
- the appearance of its manly, well-expressed and
very auspicious, because thoroughly unboastful
prospectus, followed up as that prospectus
was immediately by one of the most bril-
liant first numbers of any periodical that we can
to this moment recall to our recollection. As
a literary enterprize, we repeat, our anticipa-
tions in regard to the Fortnightly Review have
until now been completely justified. Of its success
so far we can judge for ourselves—of its success,
that is, purely as an intellectual adventure new
alike to our English system and to our English
taste in the general organisation of our periodi-
cal literature. A whole volume has already
made its appearance number by number,
bi-monthly, or, to use its own rather awkward
titular adverb, Fortnightly. The current number,
the seventh, is here before us. And how varied
that number is in its contents a very few words
will suffice to indicate. Added to a couple more
chapters of the serial tale about " The Belton
Estate," by Anthony Trollope, there are, for
example, among the miscellaneous papers in
No. 7 of The.Fortnightly—A chapter on British
India, by Colonel Pelly. One suggestive of an
autumnal ramble through Surrey, by John Dennis.
A critique on Meyerbeer's " Africaine," by John
Hulls.h—a critique worthy at once of the writer and
of his theme. A trenchant homethrust at the criminal
jurisprudence of the north, by William Chambers,
entitled, " How Crime is Investigated in Scotland."
Another instalment (the 3rd) by W. Bagehot in
reference to the British Constitution. A bold
discussion, by P.' G. Hamerton, on that vexed
question as to the Housing of the National Art
Treasures. A yet bolder one in reference to that
still more vexed question, as to the Irish Church, by
Anthony Trollope—who seems, by the way, to be
perfectly prepared at all times and seasons to "have
at" anything or everything in turn—a new poet or
an old grievance—fox hunting or the West Indies—
love tales ad libitum and clerical stories almost we
had said usque ad nauseam. Besides these as
among the contents of this the current num-
ber of the Fortnightly, No. 7, Francis Lawley
leads off with a survey of the Last Six Days of
Secessia—the, instalment being brought to a close,
as usual, by a well-digested epitome of public
affairs, followed by two or three terse literary criti-
6MS. Of the literary excellence of the Fortnightly
we can speak, as we have said, from our own grate-
ful appreciation of it. While, of the New
Journal's success as a mercantile speculation,
we are rejoiced to hear accounts the most
favourable and encouraging—the circulation of Mr.
Lewes's English Double of the Revue des Deux
Mondes having steadily, appreciably and con-
spicuously increased, fortnight after fortnight, since
the date of its commencement.

The attendance at the local markets of the county has
not been large of either buyers or sellers during the last
few days, and only a small business was transacted. In
the wheat trade the unfavourable weather for harvesting
has had the effect of sending prices up 2d. to 3d. per bushel,
and in some instances 4d. ; and this has materially checked
transactions.
