SIONEY MARXET and CITY NEWS.

CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.

TIMES.—The fluctuations in the Stock Market
have continued to-day with undiminished violence,
and the difference between the price for money and
for the account on the 14th instant has occasionally
been greater than that of yesterday, it having
amounted at one period to lf per cent. ConEols for
money opened at 84 to -, and declined to 831. An
intimation that the Bank had in some cases allowed
the repayment of one-half of the loans due on Exche-
quer-bills to stand over till the 13th instant then
caused a reaction to 84k. This was not maintained,
and they again went down until they touched 834,
and the closing price was 831 to 841. For the account,
the first price was 844 to i; they then declined to
84k, advanced to 85, and closed at 841 to i; while
for the account on the 25th of November the quota-
tion was 85i to I. After business hours the quotation
for this account went to 84i 85. Bank Stock left
off 190 to 193 • and India Stock, 222 to 228. The
market for Exchequer-bills presented in an increased
degree the same extraordinary features as were
noticed yesterday. The first quotation was 30s. to
208. dis., and after some large sales had been effected
at 305., they left off without improvement. The
pressure for discounts at the Bank throughout the day
was again extremely heavy.
There was a general indisposition on 'Change to-
day to deal in foreign bills, and, as on the two pre-
ceding post days, a large amount remained unsold.
In many instances, material advances in the rates
were submitted to with the view of disposing of
paper.

_ As a necessary consequence of the state of the ex-
changes above mentioned, it appears that an arrival of
gold from Paris took place at the Bank this after•
noon, to the amount of about 60,0001. or 70,0001.

Happily to-day we are without any failures to re-
cord, and it appears also that the report of the favour-
able way in which the bills which fell due yesterday
were met has been very generally confirmed.

DREADFUL EXPLOSION OF A
STEAM-BOILER AT LEEDS.

LEEDS, MONDAY.—A most terrific boiler explosion,
by, which two persons have been killed and three
others seriously injured, occurred about one o'clock
to day,•at a foundry called the Round Foundry, in
Water-lane, Leeds. The foundry in question is oc-
cupied by Messers. Beacock and Tannett, machine-
makers, who have only been in possession a few
months.

The boiler house, a low brick building, contained
two waggon shaped boilers, placed side by side. One
of them exploded, carrying away the roof of the build-
ing, and also destroying the roof of another building,
a few yards distant from the boiler house. The
,peer Dart of the boiler was torn from the bottom
portion, and projected a distance of between 20 and
30 yards.
From the size and strength of the boiler the explo-
sive force must have been terrific. Not only have
the plates been torn off by the rivets, but, in some
instances, the plates themselves have been rent com-
pletely through.
One of the persons who was killed is the engine-
man, named Newton. The other is a girl, named
Harris, who was going up an entry adjoining the
boiler house when the explosion occurred. The three
persons who have been injured, and whose injuries
have not yet proved fatal, were taken to the Leeds
General Infirmary, where they are now lying in a
very precarious state. The cause of the melancholy
occurrence is not known, and the engine-man being
killed will render it impossible to obtain evidence as
to the state of the boiler immediately before the ex-
plosion.

DEATH OF A WIFE THROUGH

THE VIOLENCE OF HER HUSBAND.

Last night, at the William the Fourth, Beauchamp-
street, Leather-lane, Mr. Wakley, M.P., held an in-
quest on the body of Matilda Clifton, aged 38, who
resided at 6, Beauchamp street, who diEd on Sunday
morning last from the effects of a kick on the lower
part of the abdomen, received by deceased from her
husband.

The evidence of the deceased's landlady, Margaret
Goodwin, and Mr. Col:lough, the surgeon who first
attended, were now taken in full by the Coroner ; but
as they appeared in the police report of the case
yesterday, we proceed at once to the evidence of the
daughter.
Elizabeth Clifton, aged 12, stated that she was in
bed in the front attic on Sunday morning last, about
half-past twelve, when her father and mother came in
and sat down to supper. Both were intoxicated, the
latter more particularly. Deceased made use of the
most gross and abusive epithets to witness's father,
who acted with much forbearance ; but after submit-
ting to much abuse and violence, he was unable to
control his passion, followed his wife out on to the
landing-place, and in the sight of the witness kicked
deceased in the abdomen, who cried out as if in pain
He expressed remorse for his act, and the daughter
positively declared that deceased, after receiving the
kick, instantly returned to the chamber, and sat down
supported by her husband.
Mr. Pollock, surgeon, of Hatton-garden, stated
that he had made a post mortem examination ; found
no trace of injury externally, but internally he dia-
-1 covered a small lacerated wound—several
ruptured, but no artery of any size. yews were

questioned her closely, as to

minute. Mr. Wakley observed that he found it
' "ble to reconcile her statement with that of the
impossible
surgeon, and suggested to Mr. Pollock whether it
were not possible that there might be some more
serious injury of the parts as yet undiscovered, and

Pollock expressed himself confident in his,diagnosis.
The Coroner here ordered
the room to be cleared, and,
after some consultation, the daughter was again re-
called, and, in re-stating her evidence, altered the
time to five minutes, and the jury, taking the dis-
parity in her statements into consideration, and the
excitement natural on such a dreadful scene having
been transacted before her eyes, declared themselves
satisfied with the surgeon's evidence.
The CORONER replied that if that were the case the
rest of the evidence was clear beyond a doubt, and
he considered it unnecessary for him to recapitulate it.
It was conclusive from the evidence before them that
the death of the deceased was caused by an act of un-
lawful violence on the part of her husband, and they
must record a verdict of manslaughter against him.
Verdict accordingly.

_ -
The two parties, Edward and Robert Bristow,
who had been remanded on suspicion of having made
a most murderous assault upon the bead and as-
sistant keepers to Mr. Erogley, at West Horsley, in
Surrey, have been examined at 'Guildford gaol, before
the Earl of Lovelace (chairman) and several other ma-
gistrates. Edward Bristow brought forward sufficient
evidence to prove that he was not in the preserves when
the attack was made. The bench difeharged the pri-
soner Edward. The bench said that nothing had been
proved on the part of the other prisoner to alter the
previous opinion of the magistrates, and he was again
locked up.
