FIRE IN BIRMINGHAM. —A fire, which at itB co-
mencement threatened the most disastrous consequencesrn,
broke out at an early hour yesterday morning upon the
premises of Mr. Sheldon, timber merchant, of Ludgate-
street, Birmingham. About four o'clock a.m., flames
were observed to issue from the engine-house, and very
speedily the entire property was in a state deonflagra-
tion ; in the course of a short time three engines from
fire offices of the town were on the spot, but for the first
hour there were not more than three firemen to work
them, and the duty fell principally upon the police, who_.
conducted themselves in a praiseworthy manner. T
most effective kervice was, however, perfornalepy .e

SMITHFIELD.

The supply of beasts on sale here to-day was seasonably
good, both as to number and quality. For all breeds the
demand was in a sluggish state, at Monday's decline in the
quotations. The general top figure for beef was 4s 4d per
Sibs. With sheep we were fairly supplied. On the whole,
the mutton trade was steady, at unaltered currencies. The
primest old Downs realised 4s 8d per 81bs. There was an
improved sale for lambs at full prices, viz., 5s to Gs 4d per
Sibs. The supply of calves being large, the veal trade was
less active, but no change took place in value. Pigs sold
slowly, at barely late rates. Milch cows, were in steady
request at from 171. 15s to 20/. each, including their small
calf.

ASTLEY'S.

The crowded and. fashionable audiences that nightly
assemble to witness Fife on the Turf, is the best crite-
rion of the admirable efficiency with which the peice is
produced. To particularise the various excellencies in
the different departments of the omusements would be
to repeat the programme. We cannot, however, con-
clude our short notice without expatiating some little
on the matchless equestrianism of Miss Emily Cooke, a
young lady whose grace, activity, and daring render her
fully entitled to the rapturous applause with which she
is nightly recalled.

CATHEDRAL APPOINTMENTS BILL.
The Lords' amendments to this bill were agreed to.
ENTAILS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
On the motion of the LORD-ADVOCATE, this bill was read
a third time.
BANKRUPTCY (SCOTLAND) BILL.
This bill was read a second time.
NEW WRIT FOR PLYMOUTH.
Sir J. Y. BULLER moved that Mr. Speaker do issue his
warrant to the clesk of the Crown, to make out a new writ
for the electing of a burgess to serve in this present Parlia-
ment for the borough of Plymouth, in the room of Charles
John Mare, Esq., whose election has been determined to be
void.
Lord J. RUSSELL said the motion seemed rather pre-
mature when a committee was sitting under the act of
Parliament to inquire into the bribery and corruption
alleged to have taken place within the borough.
Sir F. THESIGER believed the act provided that the
committee were not to interfere with the issue of the

writ.
Mr. AGLIONBY said the committee did not recom-
mend that the writ should issue. They left the decision
with the house. The feeling of the committee was, how-
ever, that the writ ought to issue, and ho should vote for
the motion of the hon. baronet.
The motion was then agreed to.
BERWICK-UPON-TWEED ELECTION PETITION.
Mr. T. MITCHELL moved that the following members
be appointed a select committee on the Berwick-upon-
Tweed election petition :—Mr. Thomas Mitchell, Mr.
Edmund Denison, Mr. Bankes, Mr. Mullings, and Mr.
Collier.
Sir W. JOLLIFFE moved as an amendment, "That it be
an instruetion to the general committee of elections to se-
lect a chairman and four other members to be the select
committee ; and that the members so selected do constitute
the said committee, and that they have power to send for
persons, papers, and records." Ho assured the house that

THE FRENCH EMPIRE.

The Emperor, on the report of the Minister of
Justice, has decreed that the Imperial Court and
the Tribunal of First Instance of Algeria, shall
henceforth have a vacation from the Ist August to
the Ist October, instead of, as heretofore, suspend-
ing their sittings for ten consecutive days in the
months of June, July, August, and September.
The decree also orders that, during the vacation,
a Chamber shall sit for the dispatch of business.
In the sitting of yesterday the Corps Legislatif
had adopted all the bills on the order of the day.
There was no discussion, and the votes were unani-
mous. After the passing of these bills M. de la
Guerroniere read the report of the committee on
the re-establishment of capital punishment for po-
litical offences. The committee recommend that
attempts to assassinate the Sovereign or to disturb
the public safety, be visited with the punishment
which the law awards to parricides.
A further decline occurred yesterday inthe pub-
lic securities. The Three per Cents. for' cash fell
65c., and the Four-and-a-H alf per Cents., 75c.
A decline of 40c. took place in the Four-and-a-Half
per Cents. for the account, and of 15c. in the Three
per Cents. Bank of France shares fell 2f. The
closing prices were :—For money : Threeper Cents

For the end of the month :—Three per Cents., 79f

SPAIN.
It is announced as a certain fact that Queen
Isabella is in an interesting situation ; she is said
to be enexente since last month.
A royal decree, inserted in the Madrid Gazette
of the 21st, orders that from the Ist June Next,
456 articles, Which in the year 1851 produced
700,000 reels, shall be exempt from customs duty.
M. Fernando Rivas, deputy of the opposition, who
was put in prison by the late Ministry for having
published an electoral manifesto, had left Madrid
for Paris and London. A letter says :—" The
Royal Council assembled yesterday, but it did not
occupy itself with the railway question. It will,
however, meet on Monday to discuss it. The sec-
tions of Justice and Public Works united, have
expressed the opinion that the concession of the
Northern line ought to be referred to the Cort es,
and that the concessions of the lines from Aranjuez
to Almansa, and from Socuellamos to Ciudad Real,
ought to be sanctioned, as the works have been
commenced. It is believed that the Royal Council
will approve of both these resolutions."
The Three per Cents. were at 45i.

PRIZE PIANOFORTES.

Recently we have been favoured with a view of three
exquisite and costly pianos, about to be transmitted
across the Atlantic by the manufacturers—Messrs.
William Stodart and Son of Golden-square—for the pur-
pose of display in the New York Exhibition. They are,
of course, of different characters—one being a "grand,"
another a "square," and the third a "cottage" piano-
forte. The Grand is a seven octave instrument encased
in walnut wood, the mouldings round the top and bottom
being of carved rosewood. Elegant pannelling is intro-
duced along the sides and elliptic end—the centre of
each containing a shield in a circular framework. The
instrument is supported by solid walnut legs, designed
with admirable taste, and altogether, both in tone and
external appearance, bears evidence of being in all re-
spects a masterpiece of skilled workmanship. The Square
is in every way dissimilar from the noble pianoforte
just mentioned. Its principal characteristic is its com-
pactness. The conspicuous beauty of its case consists
in the bold and massive carving of the rosewood. Be-
a:des these peculiarities, the instrument possesses others
still more remarkable. Although unusually small in
dimensions—being only five feet two inches by two feet
six inches—its tone is singularly powerful. Added to
which, we find on examination that the principle of the
action is altogether differentfrom that which has hitherto
been adopted in the construction of other square piano-
fortes ; among other things, for example, the movement
of the two pedals is capable (without altering the qua-
lity of tone) of giving greater effect to the crescendos
and diminuendos. It appears that this novel result
is produced by the simultaneous action of the ham-
mer-rest and the key-board one diminishing the
force of the blow from the hammer, and the other
lessening the depth of touch—thus enabling the per-
former to exercise greater command over the fortes
and pianos, and doing this by what has been termed " a
gravitation action" by the manufacturers. The Cottage
is noticeable among the three as quite a curiosity. But
it is not only curious—it is also eminently beautiful.
Cased in walnut, it is decorated, besides, with satinwood,
richly carved in the style of Louis Quatorze. Curtains
of blue satin cover the doors both at top and bottom, the
former displaying the "arms" of the United States in the
loveliest coloured embroidery. Again, instead of being
cut out of ebony and ivory as usual, its keys are of tor-
toiseshell and mother-of-pearl ! Altogether, these three
exquisite pianos—while extending the reputation of the
Messrs. Stodart— cannot fail to reflect credit upon our
English manufactures.
London, England, 1853-05-27

by 24 trumpeters. He was followed by the Chief
of the Knights, the Archduke William, on a horse
richly caparisoned in blue and gold, and bearing
ih his hand a large naked sword. He wore a coat
of arms of white velvet embroidered with gold and
diamonds. He had on his breast a red cross sur-
mounted by a crown, and a blue scarf over his
shoulder. His arms and legs were cased with
armour. The Archduke was accompanied by
twenty-four knights and twenty esquires, all
mounted on spirited horses. The cortege was
closed by two standard bearers and twelve knights.
Next came the procession of the Saracens led by
Prince Alexander of Wurtemberg, accompanied by
two Moores carrying his arms. He was mounted
on a flue Arabian horse, and was followed by six
Mamelouks, twenty-four noble Saracens, and
twelve Bedouins. Among the scions of the most
distinguished families, were remarked several offi-
cers of the Bourgeoisie, for in Austria merit is al-
ways taken into consideration, address and execu-
tion being the principal object in view. After the
quadrilles came races and combats."
A letter from Berne of the 23d, in the New
Gazette of Zurich, says :—" As was to be expected,
the Federal Council has resolved to break off
diplomatic relations with Austria, and to recal M.
Steiger, Swiss chargo d'Affaires at Vienna. But
the necessary measures have been taken for the
signing of passports in that city. The ambassador
of Austria, in announcing his recal, said that a
continuation of diplomatic relations would be
without object—there was no question about the
dinner, which, however, is still said to have been
the immediate cause of his departure. The Federal
Council has taken no other resolution, and we can
affirm that the statement that it has called on
General Dufour is perfectly false."

TEETH.—By her Majesty's Royal Letters
Patent.—Newly-invented and Patented Application of Che-
mically-prepared White India-rubber in the c.onstrultion of Artificial
Teeth, Gums, and Palatos.—Mr. EPHRAIM MOSELY, Surgeon-
Dentist, 61, Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, Sole Inventor and
Patentee.—A new, original, and invaluable invention, coysisting in
the adaptation, with the most absolute perfection and success, of
CHEMICALLY-PREPA RED WHITE INDI A-RUBBER as a lining
to the ordinary gold or bone frame. The extraordinary results of
this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi-
nent features, as the following eharp edges are avoided ; no
springs, wires, or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free-
dom of suction is supplied ; a natural elasticity hitherto wholly un-
attainable; and a fit, perfected with the most unerring accuracy, are
secured, while from the softness and flexibility of the agent em-
ployed, the greatest support is given to the adjoining teeth when
loose, or rendered tender by the absorption of the gams. The acids
of the mouth exert so agency on the chemically-prepared White
India-rubber, and as it is a non-conductor, fluids of any temperature
may with thorough comfort be imbibed and retained in the moutk,
all unpleasantness of smelt or taste being at the same time wholly
provided against by the peculiar nature of its preparation.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE LANCASHIRE

AND YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.

PRESTON, THURSDAY.

Another shocking accident has been added to the
long list of fatalities which have recently occurred on
the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway. The casualty
we have now to record, by which two lives were sacri-
ficed, and niany others placed in imminent jeopardy,
happened last night at the Lea-gate Station, on the
Preston and Wyre Branch, about three miles from
this town. The particulars following were obtained
from a passenger, an eye-witness of the accident. A
third-class train, consisting of some half-dozen car-
riages, tolerably well filled with passengers, left
Fleetwood at six o'clock, stopping as usual at all the
stations, including Lea-gate, the one nearest to Preston.
Passengers from Blackpool join this train at Poulton-
le-Fylde, there being a branch line from one place
to the other. It should here be stated that the
trains from Fleetwood traverse the rails farthest from the
Lea-gate station. A person was about to leave the train
at Lea-gate, on that side of the carriage next the station,
when one of the officials, seeing his danger (the 6.40 ex-
press from Preston being then in sight), exclaimed "Don't
get out," or "Don't get out on that side." This exclama-
tion of the officer being imperfectly heard by the passengers
in the third-class train, was construed by many into "Get
out," the idea that a collision was impending being engen-
dered in their minds by the whistling of the approaching
express. The consequence was that a sudden panic seized
the passengers, and a score or more made a simultaneous
rush from the carriages—some, in their alarm, clearing
the adjacent fence at a bound. Two of them, however,
were less fortunate—they alighted between the other

was Mr. Win. Holden, cotton spinner, of Chorley, the
other was a young woman in service at Preston. Mr.
Holden had been to Blackpool, and was returning, ac-
companied by his son, for the Manchester market to-day.
He has left a widow and large family. Mr. Holden
was 57 years of age. An inquisition by Mr. Myres, of
Preston, was proceeding at Lea-gate when this dispatch
was close'.

Ma. LAYARD'S RETERN.—Mr. Layard has left Con-
stantinople on his return to England. A letter from
that gentleman, dated Pera, May 5, 1853, has been
shown to us. In it he says—" I write a line to say that
I leave Constantinople to-day on my return to England.
I hope to be in London by the end of the month. Mat-
ters here are in some respects quieting down, although
the Russians are still assuming a very warlike attitude
in their southern provinces. It must be hoped that the
recent declaration of Lord John will keep them in
order, especially as they have no pretence whatever for
resorting to violent measures, as the ostensible objects
of their recent embassy have been obtained. The poli-
tical state of things at home has hastened my return. As
long as the Government is in minorities, I ought not to

THE CITY OF LONDON AND THE SEAT OF FASHION.
THE CITY of LONDON, in a geographical,
topographical, commercial, and trading point of view, is
superior to any town in the kingdom. As the " seat of fashion,"
the superlative claims of the City are everywhere asserted
and maintained, and hence the familiar phrase :—" If you would have
really superior articles, you must go to the City for them." Why (it
may be asked) is a constant trading communication kept up with the
City, the suburbs and the provinces? Would this be the case if the
English capital were simply on a par with other less distinguished
localities ? Most assuredly not. L. lIYAM for many years has had
the honour of vindicating and establishing the reputation of the City
London as the seat of fashion, by a succssive display of seasonable
attire not elsewhere to be met with. L. Hyam maintains his high
position by invariably selecting from the best markets, and by securing
artists of long practice and ability.
There is no novelty, no improvement that L. Hyam does not avail
himself of. The Proprietor's present collection of (tress surpasses that
of any prec.dnig season. Each description of dress displays "City "
excellence in material, cut and make—excellence easily distinguish-
able from any and every other crass of costume. An inspecton of
the new summer light overcoats, dress coat., frock coats, trousers
and waistcoats, will satisfy parties making the Inspection that the
Just repute of the city of London (as above a serted) is well upheld by
L. Hymn. who, in addition to superior style and quality in dress, en-
sures to purchasers the advantage of exceedingly moderate prices.
OBSERVE !—L. HYAM begs to state that Ike has no connexion
with any similar establishment in London. 36, Gracechurcii-street,
City (established upwards of 15 years), is the only place of bust-
hens carried on by L. HYAM, where the public can be supplied with
good, durable, and fashionable Clothing, of sound workmanship, at
such economical prices as must defy all competition.

ASTLEY'S.

The crowded and fashionable audiences that nightly
assemble to witness Life on, the Tail, is the best crite-
rion of the admirable efficiency with which the piece is
produced. To particularise the various excellencies in
the different departments of the amusements would be
to repeat the programme. We cannot, however, con-
clude our short notice without expatiating some little
on the matchless equestrianism of Miss Emily Cooke, a
young lady whose grace, activity, and daring render her
fully entitled to the rapturous applause with which she
is nightly recalled.

firm at 47s to 49s for grocery lumps. Mauritius went Gd
lower for about 12,003 bags, good and very superior yellow
selling at 36s to 38s 6d, low to good mid at 33s 6d to 35s 6d,

been received, a portion of which sold by Keeling and
Hunt, at public sale, went at a reduction of 4s. to ss. per

EDUCATION BILL,

Lord J. RUSSELL replied that he had no present
intention of bringing the metropolis within the operation
of the Educational Bill.
ADMISSION OF JEWS INTO PARLIAMENT.
Mr. M. GIBSON wished to ask the noble lord the
member for the city of London a question relative to
the admission of Jews into Parliament. It would be
remembered that some short time ago a bill was intro-
duced for the removal of Jewish disabilities. That bill
passed through the house but it was afterwards rejected
by the other house of Parliament. Now the city of
London had returned a Jew to represent them in that
house, but the gentleman who so represented the city
was unable to discharge his duties, owing to the state of
the law. The seat however was full and a new writ could
not therefore be issued. The question which he had to
ask the noble lord was this—What course did the noble
lord propose to take in the present position of affairs
Holding the noble lord responsible for the management
of business in this house, he wished to ask the noble
lord what course he would advise the house to take with
reference to the peculiar position of the City of Lon-
don, and also whether the Government mean to make
any effort during the present session, or at any future
time, to settle the important question. (Hear.)
Lord J. RUSSELL said with respect to the import-
ant question which his right hon. friend had put to him,
he had to state in the first place—that he did not think
this question could be settled by allowing things to re-
main as they were. His opinion was, that it was much
more probable that it would be settled by a bill which
should snake a general alteration in the oaths taken by
members, than by again recurring to a bill of the
nature of that which had just been rejected by
the House of Lords. As to what time such an
alteration ought to be proposed he could not at present
undertake to say. However, he might observe that
there had been a bill introduced into the other house
for the alteration of the oaths. He had not seen that
bill, but it was possible the bill might ultimately come
dos to them in such a shape as to remove the difficulty
in which they now found themselves. (Hear, hear.)

BANKRUPTCY COURT.-!THIS D.4Y.)

(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
IN RE MORTON.
This bankrupt was described as of Belgrave-
bill discounter, and to-day was appointed for the
certificate meeting..
Mr. Drew, Basinghall-street, prepared the balance'
sheet, from which it appears that bankrupt owed 2,o:aq
and had petitioned the Court.
His :Honour said he considered the proceedings svere
against the bankruptcy law, —in short, it was a fraud.'.
for the law said that no person should apply on their
own petition unless they had an available amount for the
benefit of his creditors. In this case the bankrupt en•
tertained an idea of " expectancies," and perhaps on'e
square,
advantage might arise to the creditors. He would,
therefore, .adjourn the consideration of the case for 3
fortnight, and protection would be granted for that time.
The case was considered of considerable importance ag
many bills had been discounted for the aristocracy..
