new and remarkable work, the Swidgk.,:litnes observes:--
"These are volumes of an extremely interesting nature,
emanating from the pen of a Russian, noble by birth,- who
has escaped beyond the reach of the Czar's power. The
merits of the work are very considerable. It throws a new
light on the state of the empire; its aspect, political and
domestic; its manners; the emplorfs about the palace, court,
and capital ; its police, its spies, its depraved society, &c.
The details on all these 'subjects will be found peculiarly
valuable, as the author enjoyed ample means of observation,
and has availed himself of them to the utmost."

LoscoE COAL IfiNEs.--An explosion of fire damp (it
is said) took place at the above works on Wednesday morn-
ing week. The noise was so great that the men who were
working at another pit at some distance heard it.. Vre•
hardly know with what trial!, but it is said, the men might
have avoided the calamityias they were apprised of their
danger. More than twelve persons are sufferers, and one of
them, a young man of about 22 years of age, is dead. Seve-
ral of the poor men are burned very seriously. We are very
happy to speak in terms of commendation of the proprietor
of the works, who has manifested the .greatest sympathy for-
the poor sufferers. The very serious and afflicting accidents
that are constantly happening in various parts of the
two utlrie-
try ought to speak with more than trumpet tgu

I'm IN A COAL-PIT.—On Tuesday forenoon
about ten o'clock, a fire was discovered in an air-pit belong-
ing to Mrs. Bullock, near Kenyon-lane, Wigan. The pit n
question is an old air-pit, at the bottom of which is a fur-
nace, to draw the damp air from the other. pit; and it is
supposed that the furnace was left in an insecure state, and
must have ignited some coals. The workpeople commenced
filling up the mine with earth, and pouring water down the
shaft in order to extinguish the fire, which had risen to a
considerable height above the level of the mouth. Fortu-
nately the fire was confined to the one spot, but it will pre-
vent the miners from following their employment until the
earth has been removed, or another pit open for air. Al.
though the fire appears at present to be extinguished, it is
