CORONER'S INQUEST.

Mr. Bedford, the coroner for the city of Westmin-
ster, and the jury who were assembled at the Crown
Tavern, Long-acre, on Saturday, the 7th instant, to
inquire into the circumstances which caused the sud-
den death of a poor man named George Gross, at No.
5, Langley-court, Long-acre, met again oy adjourn-
ment at the same place yesterday afternoon to prose-
cute the inquiry.
Very considerable interest appeared to have been
excited by its having gone forth that the death of the
deceased was attributable to the defective state of
drainage and sewerage in the neighbourhood of Long-
acre. This, our readers may remember, has often
been made a subject of complaint by many of our cor-
respondents, and, from what transpired at the inquest,
it would seem that they were fully justified in their
remonstrances.

By the evidence taken on the Pinner occasion, it
appeared that the deceased, who was a strong healthy
young man of 27 years of age, and who obtained his
living by hawking fish and other articles about the
streets, lodged at No. 5, Langley-court, Long•acre ;
that on the afternoon of Friday, the 6th instant, he
was seen by a person named William Parkins, in per-
fect health, going towards the watercloset of the
house where he lodged ; that within a quarter of an
hour Parkins heard a struggling in the yard, and on
going out to ascertain the cause he saw the young
man lying on his back quite dead. His countenance
was ghastly, and there was, as the witness described
it, a " tremendous" stench in the yard. This offen-
sive smell had not been perceived half an hour before.
It was clearly proved that the deceased was quite
sober when he entered the yard. Confirmatory evi-
dence having been given, the inquest was adjourned
to afford an opportunity to discover the cause of this
sudden event, and in the meantime a post-mortem ex-
amination of the body was directed to be made.

The jury having re-assembled,
Mr. Le Breton said that he attended not only as
one of the commissioners of sewers, but as solicitor
for the parish in which this lamentable event had oc-
curred, rather to watch the proceedings than to take
any part in them. At the same time, he begged to
say both the commissioners and the parish authori-
ties were anxious to remedy any grievance that might
exist and which came within their cognizance, he was
quite aware that the inhabitants of Long-acre were
without a sewer. The commissioners had for many
years past been endeavouring to have a sewer con-
structed, but till last year they had no power to en-
force the construction of one. The Mercers' Com-
pany were the principal proprietors of the property in
the street, and several plans had been submitted to
them for building a sewer, which would have been
attended with a trifling expense, but they had not
done it. The Act of last session gave the commis-
sioners power to erect sewers were necessary, and to
charge the proprietors of the property with the
cost. This power the commissioners now intended
to act upon.
The CORONER said he had considered it necessary
to inform the parish authorities of the circumstances
attending the death of this poor man Gross, and if
Mr. Le Breton could produce any evidence that
would enable the jury to come to a satisfactory ver-
dict, it was very desirable that he should do so.
On the suggestion of Mr. Le Breton, Mr. Phil-
lips, surveyor to the commissioners of sewers, was
then examined. He described the state of the pre-
mises. An old sewer ran at the back of the houses
on the east side of Langley-court. The sewer was
two feet six inches high and two feet wide. The
privies of the houses emptied themselves into it.
There was a drain from the houses in Long-acre, be-
tween Langley-court and James-street, which also
ran into the sewer. The sewer was quite clean and
there was a good fall. When he examined it he
smelt no stench. There was no cesspool. The
houses on the west side of Langley-court had drains
communicating with a sewer built about 24 years
ago, and which ran down Langley-court. The ac-
cumulation of soil in that sewer was upwards of
three feet deep, and the mouths of the drains were
nearly choked up. This latter sewer emptied itself
into a sewer in Hart-street. There was an accumu-
lation of filth in the Hart-street sewer of one foo t
eight inches in depth ; this blocked up the sewer in
Langley-court, and caused the filth to accumulate
to the depth of three feet six inches—the Langley-
court sewer being deeper than the Hart-street sewer.
The sewer was badly constructed, being flat bot-
tomed. He could not from an inspection of the drain
form any opinion as to the cause of the death of the
deceased ; but, from his experience in sewers, it was
his opinion that he could not have met his death from
any foul air arising from the sewer itself.
Mr. A. Burstall, surveyor of pavements and builder,
said the place in questiun was neither a closet nor a
close privy. It was a mere piece of timber put across
the sewer, and all the rest was open. There were
drains from the houses in Long-acre into the sewer.
That morning it was as sweet as the room they were
then sitting in.—(Laughter.) There was no cess-
pool ; cesspools now were destroyed as nuisances, but
forty years ago they would not allow you to hare a
drain without a cesspool.
Samuel John Davis stated that he was the proprie-
tor of the house No. 5, Langley-court; he had not
been troubled with any stench till the 6th of August.
Ile was in the habit of throwing down lime to pre-
vent any unpleasant smell. He saw the deceased in
perfect health at eleven o'clock, and when he came
home at half-past ten at night the poor man was lying
in the passage dead.
The CORONER—What! from the afternoon till half-
past ten at night ? Witness—lt was from the igno-
rance of the men ; they did not know they would be
doing right in removing hill,.
The CORONER—Great ignorance indeed !
Witness immediately directed the body to be taken
up stairs. There was no smell in the passage. When
.he examined the yard with. Mr, perry, the girgeont

PROHIBITION `AGAINST THE ' IMPORTATION OF
WARLIKE STORES INTO THE REGENCY OF TRIPOLI;
IN BannanY.,-.-The Government of Malta, under date
July 30. 1847, transmitted to the committees of British
and native merchants' of 'that island; copy of a dispatch
from G. W. Crowe, Esq.; her Britannic Majesty's Agent
and Consul-General at Tripoli, dated the 20th ult., noti-
fying that the importation and sale of all warlike stores,
such as guns, gun-barrels,-gunpowder, gun-flints, musket
and pistol balls, had been strictly prohibited by th.-
Government of Tripoli; and that any such articles being
landed at any of the ports or on the coast of that Re-
gency. will be confiscated as contraband.
STEAM TUGS FOR THE , gEDITERRANEAN.—It is
iuggeated that 'the attention of the Admiralty should
now now be*called to the probability of westerly gales
setting in in the Meiliterranean, by which vessels from the
.Black. Sea and,the coasts of Italy and Egypt, bound to
. this country, are often detained many
days,
sometimes
- weeks, in the Gut of Gibraltar, to the great damage,
and not unfrequently total destruction, of their cargoes.
Many-hundred •vessels- may thus be shortly collected
and stopped there.- Two towing steamers, placed in the
-gut to render assistance, might be the means of sparing
much loss to merchants and underwriters. The preva-
lence of westerly Winds last year at the Gut of Gibraltar
caused the detention of a large fleet of merchantmen for
nearly six weeks.. Surely, having so many steam ships
to spare, the Admiralty might send half a dozen for the
purpose of assisting the wind bound. fleet. Another
served, that of te •
object, too, might be . setting the com-
' menders of such steamers what it is very desirable they
should•learn—nainely., the best method of towing ships,
and also the capabilities of their respective vessels for
this sort of work; it being well known that the towing
of heavy ships does not so much depend upon the speed
or horse-power of the steamer employed as upon her
build.,
...- • --Great commotion.
. . SUPPOSED V.LURDER. was created
in the .Cowgate.and neighbourhood yesterday by a report
that the *COMMOn executioner for • the city, John Scott,
had been -murdered. •From the few contradictory and
inconclusive.partinelars which we have been enabled to
gather, it appears, however, to be. exceedingly doubtful
whether Scott's death ImEreally been occasioned by vio-
lence, or arose frem *natUritl. onuses: As the' case is
undergoing investigation: by the authorities, we forbehr
to record the 'lime. of. the Pt4rtY.aceused, or the various
criminiting statements current against him. There can
be. no doubt, however, that Scott was yesterday forenoon
carried into a shoP near the foot of the Fishmarket Close
in . a
state
of insengibility, and that he died in a few
minutes after. Sotne people say he died in consequence
of-a blow he had•just received from another man, while
others allege that it-was a sudden visitation. The latter
is, perhaps, the correct version, as
Scott was 'a poor,
ereaciated man, and it appearskts body bears no external
marks of violence.--:Edinburgh ;Advertiser. -

(From El Jkfonitor Republicano.)
" Mexicans I—The recent events of the war, and
the provisions which have in consequence been dic-
tated by your Government, render it my duty to ad-
dress you, for the purpose of demonstrating truths
of which you are ignorant, because they are mali-
ciously concealed from you. I do not wish you to
believe me on my word of honour, although he who
has never swerved from the truth has a right to be
believed; but I wish you to judge of these truths ,1
from the facts which are under the cognisance and
subject to the test of you all.
" Whatever may have been the origin of this war,
which my country found itself compelled to under-
take from inevitable causes, of which, I understand,
the greater part of the Mexican people are ignorant,
we consider it as a fatality ; for a war always is so to
the two belligerent parties, and reason and justice are
called into question, if they are not entirely unknown,
on both sides, each one believing that it is in posses-
sion of them. The proof of this truth is held by the
Mexicans as well as ourselves, since in Mexico, as
in the United States, theie have existed, and
do exist, two opposite parties which are desirous, the
one of peace, and the other of war. Governments,
however, have sacred duties, from which they cannot
swerve, and those duties frequently impose, from mo-
tives of national convenience, a silence and reserve
which sometimes displeases the majority of those who
offer oppositition from purely personal and private
views, and whom Governments, which suppose that
the nation reposes in them the confidence merited by
a magistrate by itself elected, ought not to regard.
" Reasons of state and of American continental
interest compromised events in spite of the circum-
spection of the Cabinet of Washington, which, ar-
dently desiring to put a period to all the differences
with Mexico, left no means untried, so far as they
were compatible with its honour and dignity, to
attain so desirable an end ; and when it cherished
the most flattering expectation of obtaining its object
by means of its frank explanation and of arguments,
submitted to the judgment and practical wisdom of
the virtuous and patriotic Government of General
Herrera, the misfortune, least looked for, dispelled
that grateful hope, and at once obstructed all the
paths which might have led to an arrangement
honourable to both nations.
" The new Government mistook the national in-
terests as well as those of the American continent,
and chose, moreover, the influences most foreign to
those interests, and most fatal to the future prospects
And the liberty of Mexico, and the republican system
which the United States deem it their duty to pre-
serve and protect.
" Duty, however, and a regard for our own dignity,
impelled us to the necessity of not losing an oppor-
tunity which was being violated by the adherents of
the monarchical party, and we labour with the
activity and decision necessary in such urgent con-
tingencies thus to avoid the complication of interests
which might render our situation more difficult and
more serious.

" Again, in the course of the civil war, your Go-
vernment, headed by General Paredes, was overturned,
and we ourselves could not but believe that it would
prove a benefit, because whatever other persons might
represent, the Government would be less deluded,
and at once more patriotic and prudent, if he attended
to the public welfare. Considering and weighing all
probabilities, their forces, and elements, and, above
all, the most general opinion respecting the pristine
results of the national war, we are mistaken, as per-
haps the Mexicans themselves have been, in our judg-
ment of the real intentions of General Santa Anna,
whom they recalled and our Government permitted
to return.

"In this state of things, the Mexican nation has
seen what have been the results which all lament,
and ourselves sincerely ; because we duly appreciate
the valour and the noble decision of the unfortunates
who go to war badly led, worse directed, and almost
always the victims of deceit and perfidy. -
" We are witnesses ; and, as interested parties, we
shall not be accused of partiality, when we have
lamented, with admiration, that the heroic behaviour
of the garrison of Vera Cruz, in the valiant
defence which it made, was disgraced by the
general who had just been routed and put to a
shameful flight by a force very inferior to that which
he commanded in Buenavista • that this general re-
warded the pronunciados in Mexico, the promoters of
the civil war, and outraged those who had just sin.
gularly distinguished themselves by a resistance far
beyond what could have been expected, and charac-
terised by an admirable decision.
"Lastly, the sanguinary affair of Cerro Gordo has
shown the Mexican nation what may reasonably be
expected if it continues to remain in ignorance of the,
real state of affairs to which it has been conducted by
some of its generals whom it has most distinguished,
and in whom it has reposed the most confidence.
" The most hardhearted man would be melted into
grief and tears at the contemplation of the battle-
fields in Mexico a minute after the last shot had been
fired. The generals whom this nation has paid for
so many years without deriving the slightest service
from them (with a few honourable exceptions), served
on the very day when they were wanted, to prejudice
the cause for which they contended, by their
bad example and their unskilfulness. Amongst
the dead and the wounded no proofs of mili-
tary honour are discerned, because they are
almost reduced to the sad fate of the soldier,
and this has been on all occasions, from Palo- Alto to
Cerro Gordo, the cause of the dead remaining un-
buried, and their wounded being abandoned to the
clemency and charity of the conquerors. And sol-
diers who went to battle with the knowledge that
this recompense awaited them well deserve to be re-
cognised as the best in the world, because they are
neither stimulated by an ephemeral glory, a sigh, or
a remembrance, but only a tomb.
" Contemplate, then, honoured Mexicans, the fate
of the peaceful and laborious citizens in all classes of
your society. The property of the church threatened
and held out as an allurement to revolution and
anarchy—the fortunes of the rich proprietors indi-
cated as the prey of rebel rapine—the merchant
and the artizan, the labourer and the manufac-
turer, loaded - with contributions, imposts, du-
ties on consumption, and surrounded by guards
and officers of the odious internal custom-
houses ; the literary man and the jurist—the
free man of knowledge who dares to speak,
persecuted without being judged by any party, or by
the very Governments which abuse their power ; cri-
minals set at liberty without punishment, like those
in the fortress of Perote. What, then, Mexicans, is
the liberty which you enjoy?
• "I do not believe that the Mexicans, sons of the
present age, are wanting in courage to confess errors
which do not dishonour them, and to adopt a system
of true liberty, peace, and union with their neighbour-
ing brothers of the north.
" Still less do I believe that they are ignorant of
the infamy with which we are assailed in the perio-
dicals for inciting the people to rebellion. No, public
spirit is not created or reanimated by falsehoods. We
have not profaned your temples, violated the persons
of your wives, ur taken possession of your property,
as they would have you believe ; and we say it with
pride and attest it on the evidence of your own
bishops, and the curates of Tampico, Tuzpan, Mata-
moms, Vera Cruz, and Jalapa, and all the ecclesias-
tics and civil authorities in the vicinity of those dis-
tricts which we have occupied. We worship, the same
God, and a great•part of our army, as well as the po-
pulation of the United States, are Roman Catholics
like yourselves. We chastise crime wherever we find
it, and reward merit and virtue.

In conclusion, I desire to proclaim, and with
equal frankness, that if it should prove necessary, an
'army of 100,-000 men would very promptly arrive,
and that the United States would not terminate their
differences with Mexico—having to do so.by

truth.

DITJARRWEI.
.—lt will be rtrcollected that
,ce M. Beauvallon was tried at Rouen for
Dujarrier, one of the editora of La Presse,
and was acquitted. After the trial circum-
Jes .orded grounds for a charge of false testi-
mony against M. d'Ecquevilley, one of the witnesses
in the case, which testimony had formed part of the
ground upon which the verdict of acquittal was ren-
dered. M. d'Ecquevilley has just been tried before
the Court of Assizes of the Seine on this charge. The
perjury related to the following facts :—Betbre the
duel M. Bertrand, one of the seconds of M. Dujar-
rier, having examined the pistols, which were supplied
by M. d'Ecquevilley, and inserted a finger in. one of
the barrels, found that it was blackened, from which
circumstance he inferred that they had been tried, and
put the question to M. d'Ecquevilley, who replied
that they had been merely flambes (flashed
with powder), and that M. Beauvallon had
never before used them. M. d'Ecquevilley had
previously represented to the other seconds that
the pistols were his own, he having purchased
them of M. Devismes, the gunsmith ; whereas it
transpired that they were in reality the pistols
of M. Granier de Cassagnac, the brother-in-law of
M. Beauvallon, who had often practised with them.
M. Beauvallon was acquitted of the charge of murder,
but was condemned to pay heavy damages to the
mother of M. Dujarrier, who prosecuted as partie
civile in the cause. To avoid payment of this sum,
Beauvallon fled to Spain, as did also his second,
d'Ecquevilley, who holds a rank of captain in the
Spanish army. A long time had not elapsed before
an acquaintance of d'Ecquevilley, M. de Meynard,
made important disclosures, to the effect that he knew
the pistols used in the duel to be those of the brother-
in-law of M. Beauvallon ; that they had been tried
before the duel by the latter in the garden of the
house where d'Ecquevilley resided; and that Beau-
vallon, who performed some shots which excited
his admiration, replied that he was perfectly acquainted
with the pistols, as they belonged to his. brother- in-
law. Upon this the indictment against d'Ecquevilley
was framed. In the course of this trial M. Beau-
vallon appeared as a witness on behalf of the accused,
and the testimony which he gave being compared
with the established facts of the case and the evidence
of other witnesses was, in the opinion of the court,
such as to place the judge under the necessity, in the
discharge of his functions, of committing M. Beau-
vallon to the Conciergerie on the charge of giving
false testimony. An observation having fallen from
M. Beauvallon in the court., to the effect that the
proceeding of the president would have the effect of
producing a duel between him and M. Bertrand (the
son of the Marshal of France of that name), the pre-
sident, at the close of his charge to the jury, said,
" Having thus, Gentlemen, placed before you the cir-
cumstances of the accusation, allow me to notice the
impudence of that man whom I ordered into arrest
to-day, and who will no doubt be prosecuted. It
was not without indignation that we heard him say
to the court, You desire, then, to have a duel between
me and Arthur Bertrand !' ,Gentlemen, a duel of any
gentleman with Beauvallon is now impossible ; for if,
as the public prosecutor maintains, he have not used

should accept a challenge from him." These con-
cluding words of the Judge were received by the
large assembly which crowded the court with an ex-
pression of loud and general approbation,_ which, how-
ever, was immediately suppressed.
At the close of a prolonged investigation and legal
discussion, the jury, after retiring for only five
minutes declared by the mouth of their foreman—
" On my honour and conscience, in the sight of God
and men, the verdict of the jury is—" The accused is
Guilty.' The verdict is found by a majority : there
are extenuating circumstances."
The Court retired for a quarter of an hour to deli-
berate, and on its return pronounced sentence against
Ecquevilley of ten years' solitary imprisonment,
without public exposure. He was also declared liable
for costs.

FORGERY AT BATH.
the week in investigating a charge against four per-
sons of the names of John and Daniel Davis Ford,
John Lewis, and Francis Garland (housekeeper to
the deceased), for having forged the will and codicil
of a gentleman of considerable property, named Wil-
liam Slack, who resided at Bathwick.
It appeared from the evidence that Mr. William
Slack died at Bath on the 2d of July, 1845, having
been taken ill on the previous 10th of April, up to
which time he had been in the habit of coming into
Bath, and transacting his business with his tenants
and other persons at a house in Quiet-street, where
his letters and papers were kept. On being taken ill,
he sent a servant to fetch from Quiet-street a will
which he had previously made and cancelled. On
the 11th of April Mr. Dowding and Mr. Wintle so-
licitors at Bath, were engaged the greater part of the
day in taking instructions for a new disposition of
the deceased's property, and on the 16th that will
was duly executed, and after that time several codicils
had been framed, which remained as genuine codicils
till the 30th of June in the same year, which day was
on a Monday. On Sunday, the 29th of June, Mr. Slack,
who was fully 80 years of age, was fast sinking,
and upon Mr. Dowding calling on him, expressed
a wish to have a codicil prepared, by which to devise
some property which had yet to be disposed of. That
codicil was accordingly prepared, and on the Monday
was executed in the presence of two of Mr. Dow-
ding's clerks, who witnessed it. The following day
the deceased grew worse, and early on Wednesday
morning he expired. During the preparation of the
will Mr. Slack expressed a wish that it should not be '
proved till the expiration of six months. Two days i
before the expiration of that term a letter was re-
ceived by Mr. .Dowding from the Registrar of Doc -
tors' Commons, giving him notice of the receipt, by
Air. John Ingledon, one of the deputy registrars, of
a letter signed "E. A.," and dated, " Bristol, 16th
of December, 1845," in which the writer, in very bad
orthography, informed Mr. Ingledon of the decease
of Mr. Slack, and enclosed a copy of a will purporting
to be his, requesting Mr. Ingledon to get a proctor
to prepare the probate. The envelope was directed
"To the Prerogative Court, London." On the re-
ceipt of this communication Mr. Dowding went to
London, and at once saw that the said will was
a forgery. The signature was not in Mr. Slack's
handwriting. The document was badly spelt and
worded, and contained not less than thirty-five
mistakes. The will purported to be witnessed by a Mr.
Mant, a solicitor, since deceased; but Mr. Dowding,
who knew his handwriting, at once pronounced it not
to be his, though a good imitation. On legal pro-
ceedings being threatened against the suspected par-
ties, every one seceded except Stephen Ford, who
prayed the Court to be allowed to prove in forma
pauperis, and a suit was instituted and proceeded.
Twelve months, however, had elapsed. Mr. Mant,
having died in the interim, was not produced. Jacob
Stoodley Manning, the other witness to the will, was
not to be found. Fifteen months elapsed from the
date of the death of the deceased, when up started a
codicil, purporting to be signed by Mr. Slack, and to
be dated at the same time as the will—viz., the 30th
of June, but making a different disposition of the
property. This document, it was stated, was found
in the house of the female prisoner in the Wells-road.
It was witnessed by John Lewis, John Ford, and
Henry Mant. Lewis and Ford had also sworn that
they had seen Mr. Slack sign the will in the
presence of a person named J. S. Manning and Mr.
Mant ; that they saw Mr. Mant and Manning put
their names as witnesses, and that Mr. Mant then left
the room and came back with the codicil in his hand,
which having been signed by Slack, they (Lewis and
Ford) attested it with their signatures. In the end
this evidence was rebutted, the signatures were
proved not to be genuine; it was shown that Mr.
Jacob Stoodley Manning was an imaginary being ;
the suit was settled, the affidavits of the prisoners
rejected, and the Judge of the Prerogative Court
pronounced the case to be one of forgery at Bath and
perjury in London. Various witnesses proved that
Ford, who had been very poor, had said he should be
very rich by Mr. Slack's death ; that the signatures
were not in the handwriting of Mr. Slack or Mr.
Mant; that the body of the will and codicil were, to
the best of a witness's belief, in the handwriting of.
Daniel Davis Ford ; and that the female prisoner was
to get 3001. per annum under the codicil. It was
also shown by the female servants of Mr. Slack that
neither Mr. Mant, nor John Lewis, nor John Ford,
who purported to be witnesses to the will and
codicil, had been at Mr. Slack's house on the 30th
of June in question, when the will and codicil pur-
ported to have been made and executed. The magis-
trate thought the evidence sufficient, and committed
the prisoners.

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT
STALEYBRIDGE.

On Sunday morning some men, in the employ of
the Huddersfield and Manchester Railway Company,
were in the temporary wooden building erected near
the tunnel which is being made under the town, and
which serves as a storehouse and stables. The men
were hunting out the rats that infested the place, and
for this purpose put some gunpowder down the holes
and set fire to it. Unfortunately a cask containing a
large quantity of powder was in the building, and
the fire having communicated with it, an explosion
of a most fearful character ensued, shaking the build-
ings in the neighbourhood and burning several of the
unfortunate men in a frightful manner. Two of the
number contrived to scramble out of the place and
jump into a pit of water adjoining with their clothes
on fire, and the others were taken away almost life-
less. The building contained a large quantity of
oil and tallow, and was set on fire and burned to the
ground.
One of the sufferers, named Matthew Gomersall,
aged thirty-four, who was " gaffer" over the horses,
died on Sunday afternoon, leaving a wife and three
children. James Platt, William Shirt, and Abraham
Hardy Smith, were so severely burned that they are
not expected to recover. The sufferers had every at..
tention paid them. The damage dune is little com-
pared with the loss of life which is likely to ensue.

THE IRON TRADE.—About a fortnight ago a con-
siderable elasticity of demandforthieronot most descrip-

was felt, in consequence of
Con-
tracts that had been withheld at
appeared probable that the improvement that quarter-day,and
had been
realised in Welsh bars would extend to this district.
Such, however, has not been the case. Owing to the
movements of the Bank, and the difficulties experienced
in the money market, a feeling of caution has again been
induced, and it week of quiet, regular working for orders
has passed. A considerable difference of opinion exists
as to the future prospects of the trade. From the uncer-
tainty necessarily attending all speculative conclusions,
its present position, with the movements and transac-
tions daily taking place, form by far the most important
matter for our consideration ; yet it may not be unpro-
fitable now and then to glance at the probable effect
passing events may have upon its interests. That the
harvest here and abroad will prove most abundant and
productive, and will be gathered in an unusually excel-
lent condition, appears almost beyond a doubt, and a
vast reduction in the prices of articleaof human suste-
nance must inevitably follow ; so that all apprehen-
sions of stagnation to trade from scarcity of provi-
sions must be abandoned. At the same time, the export
demand for manufaCtured iron, and such articles as are
chiefly compoied of it, seems to be brisker than ordinary,
and the consumption for railroads cannot by any means
be diminished for 'a considerable time to come. There
are also causes that, under prosperous circumstances,
have hitherto generally pointed out- the present season
of the year as the proper time for an advance in price,
and always induce a greater activity at that period than
any other. That those causes have not ceased to ope-
rate, the incipient movement already noticed evidences,
though their influence has been partially checked by the
increased rates of discount, and apprehensions that diffi-
culties may be felt in providing for coming liabilitlei

DESTRUCTION OF FLOUR MlLLS.—Yesterday
morning, about half-past three o'clock, a most terrific
and destructive fire broke out in the extensive flour mills,
known as Ray Mills, near the Maidenhead station of
the Great Western Railway, the whole of which, to-
gether with the adjoining brewery, is now a heap of
ruins. The fire was first discovered by a man who was
at work on the premises, who alarmed the inmates of
the dwelling-house of Mr. J. T. Bell, which joins the
mills; but such was the rapidity with which the devour-
ing element spread from one building to another, that
the family had barely time to escape, which they did
almost in a state of nudity. Amongst the first on the
spot was Mr. Charles Venables, jun., the extensive
paper manufacturer, who, on hearing of the fire, at once
closed his mills, and conducted the whole of his workmen
to the scene of devastation, and by their exertions some
of the valuable furniture was saved. By this time it was
found that the fire had communicated to the dwelling-
house of Mr. Stearnes, of the' Stock-Exchange, and for
some tine it was feared this would share the fate of the
rest; fortunately, two engines from Maidenhead arrived,
and by their prompt exertions (there being, plenty of
water at hand) that house was saved, but not without
considerable damage to the furniture. The whole of the
adjoining brewery was now one mass of flames, and for
some time it seemed as though no part of it could be
saved; but at length the firemen succeeded in saving the
brewing plant, which is, in fact, the only thing Hived.
The loss must be very .great, as in addition to the stock
of corn, flour, malt, &c., there was a very large stock of
beer, nearly the whole of which is destroyed. The pre-
mises are insured in the West of England Office. No
cause can be assigned as to the origin of the fire; but
there is no doubt that it was accidental. Much praise
is due to the Maidenhead firemen for the great prompt-
ness and activity they displayed.
GUN COTTON.—The Committee charged, under the.
presidentship of the Duke de Montpensier, to proceed-to
a series of experiments to ascertain the advantmel of,
employing fulminating cotton, as compared with ordinary'
gunpowder, has made known the result of'a part of its
labours. The experiments have proved that in certain
cases of blasting,- suoh for instauwe as of °oft rocks, its
effect was less considerable than that produced by gun-
powder-:—folir 'times - the weight of the new agent. In
the second place; it was proved that after 'the expltaion,
