PARLIAMENTARY SUIIIMARY.

Irish Con-

In the Lonos' the Royal assent was given to the
stabulary Bill, and to some other Bills. Some petitions were
presented, and their Lordships then adjourned.
In the COMMONS' the Gravesend Pier Bill was thrown cut
on the second reading by a majority of 79. A spirited debate
followed the presentation of a petition by Mr. O'Connell
(who took his seat last night as Member for Kilkenny), from
certain electors of the city of Dublin against the sitting Mem-
bers for that city. To a motion made by Sir J. Gr
etition aha.m,
Mr. Spring Rice moved an amendment, that the p
should be laid upon the table, and printed, and that the de-
bate should be adjourned till the first day after the recess.
The question stands over for discussion till the 30th inst. On
the Attorney-General moving the further consideration of the
report on the Registration of Voters Bill, Mr. Warburton
moved, " That-it be an instruction to the Committee that they
have power to make provision for a permanent Court for
re-
vising the lists of voters, and for a Court of Appeal from the
same." The principle of Mr. Warburton's proposition
was
generally approved ; but there was a difference of opinion as
to the details. After some further discussion, the Bill was h
ported,and the House resumed. Notice was given by Mr. V.
mit
Smith
of his intention to move for leave to bring in a Bill to regulate
the appointment of Justices in Corporate town of England
and Wales. Mr. G. Price gave a notice for the erasure of a
notice.

It was somewhat curious to observe that labours
of the bee, which at this particular season of the year, aro,
truly wonderful, were entirely suspended during the time
ot
the sun's greatest obscuration, a striking proof that the dark-
ness thus occaisoned was sensibly felt by this industrious little

insect.
DREADFUL FIRE AT TIIE BANK, IN LEEDS'
On Monday night, at twelve o'clock, an extensive fire was op.
served to have broken out in the Low Fold Mills, at the Ban!'
The old mill was only divided by a partition wall from another
very extensive mill of the same description, in the occuPat!o
of Messrs. Hammond. In ten minutes after the alarm beiniq
given, the steam was got up at Mr. Hammond's mill, al
their ponderous force pump, wrought by an engine of thehors!
power, supplied with water from the river adjoining pre__
rnises, was put in motion. The interior of the two mills cea4
tamed great quantities of machinery and goods in process :so
manufacture, almost soaked with oil, which caused the fire
burn with such rapidity, that even the incessant torrent
•o,b
water could make no visible impression upon it. It was„viit,,,,
the greatest difficulty that the large mill of Messrs. nal-;
mond, which was only divided from one of the others by I,
partition wall, was saved from sharing a similar fate, whic
would have been inevitable if it had not been for the tre-
mendous quantity of water thrown upon that mill by their 00',"
force pump. By the assistance of that valuable auxilia*:
aided by the other engines, that building and its valuable ceer,
tents sustained no damage or injury, except from the watueut
The damages are estimated at from 7,0001. to 10,000/., ,11
much depends upon the stock of goods in process of inanutac
its ures:
-bare being small or large. The property is fortunately
in the Globe, Sun, and Leeds and Yorkshire Insurance officece
but not to the full amount. By this calamitous circurnstaa
upwards of eighty individuals have been immediately throw.,l
out of employment, and in a few weeks twice that number son
be deprived of work, who have received goods to manufacture
at their own homes.
Thursday a charming little girl, not more than
years of age, the daughter of Mr. Deering, of Dorset-Wee):
was playing in a summer-house in a garden near the °nal
when a gun which was in the summer-house was knocked dile
by a little dog with which the child was amusing itself. the
gun was loaded and went off ; the charge was deposited
head of the little girl, and she immediately expired

CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday, a Cornntr's
d,
inquest was held at the Hero of Waterloo, Waterloo.re27.
before Mr. Carter, on the body of William King, agetinhtbs
Miss Emma Latham deposed that during the last 15 inn-mao
the deceased had lodged with her mother, and was a Press.iiis-
on the Morning Post, but whom she understood had been
.2-rd
charged about a fortnight since by his employer (ha the
Little). About one o'clock on Tuesday last, not findin,g lied
deceased getting up, she went into the bedroom, and 7,eif-
Out that dinner was ready. She was surprised on net re:the

Supposing him to be asleep she took hold of one of his

the deceased alive was on Monday night. He returned
about ten o'clock, and sat in the kitchen for nearly an Pub is
and appeared to be low-spirited, which she attributed t° de.
being discharged by Little. About five minutes after the
cut
ceased went into his room he opened his door, and called,,,,it.
(to witness and her mother), " Are you in bed?" She V.-9"
ness) answered, " No ;" and said, " Do you want anythia.b't,
when he replied in the negative, and then said, Good nigher
God bless you." The deceased afterwards spoke °hods'
brother, and, as she had been informed, said, " If anY-- e
comes for me in the morning, say that I am up stairs, and hal&
my white stockings on." During the past week the deceaseir
appeared to be in a very desponding state, which was aty,
buted to his having lost his situation. The Jury returuen
verdict—" That the deceased had destroyed himself Ww"
labouring under temporary insanity."
