ASSAULTS ON POLICE-CONSTABLES.—The COM-
missioners of the Metropolitan Police have given direc-
tions to the differe it suisriatendents of divisions to
cause a report to b made out of all cases of assaults on
police-constables, which may be brought before the ma-
gistrates at the various police-courts, for the purpose of
having the names of those constables entered into a
book at Scotland-yard, se that the men, if injured, may
receive sufficient compensation when applying for pen-
sions. Should, however, the constables be the aggres-
sors, the Commissioners have directed that their conduct
should be investigated, and be punished accordingly.
THE GREAT BRITAIN.—We understand that Mr.
Bremner, of Wick, civil engineer, at the request of the
underwriters concerned in this monster steam-ship, now
stranded at Dundrum Bay, has visited and reported
jointly with Mr. Alexander Bremner, of Liverpool,
upon the present state and position of this vessel,
together with the best means for the prevention of
further damage, and finally as to tha practicability
of taking her off. We learn that the report of these
gentlemen is to the effect that this strong vessel has as
yet received comparatively little injury ; that means
may be used for beaching the vessel, by keeping
the stern to the sea until next season, and that then it
will be perfectly practicable to take her off the strand.
At present the tide flows and ebbs regularly in this
magnificent vessel, which sits nearly upright on the rock
which forms the substratum of the rock at Dundrum
Bay, and the officers and crew are still on board. To
meet the exposed nature of the bay and the great length
of the vessel, the Messrs. Bremner have proposed power
ful tackling, whereby to beach the vessel in stormy
weather, and a peculiarly original and ingenious con-
struction of timber over the stern resting at the top on
the vessel and on the rock at the bottom, and
strongly braced diagonally with chain cables therefrom
to the midships. This is intended to act at once as a
break-water, a support to the overhanging stern, and
as a means of keeping the vessel-end to the sea. With
these means, which have been sanctioned by the board
of directors, and are now being carried into execution
on this iron mammoth, the strong probability is that
the vessel will be preserved entire in her present preca-
rious position, and be got off early next year by these
gentlemen.— Glasgow Chronicle.
ACCIDENTS ATTENDING THE GUT FAWKES' RUH-
DITIONS.—During Thursday the following serious acci-
dents occurred, owing to the many Guy Fawkes' exhi-
bitions carried about the metropolis. In Providence-
row, Finsbury, a number of men with a boy upon their
shoulders, dressed up as a Guy, were about to cross the
carriage way, hurriedly, in consequence of the approach
of an omnibus, when one slipped, causing the whole to
fall down, and before they could recover themselves, one
of the party, named Watkins, was run over by the omni-
bus and sustained serious injuries. On the river, near
London-bridge, a lad dressed in the usual ludicrous style,
was placed on an elevated position in a boat, for the pur
pose of begging money of the steam-boat passengers,
when trying to catch a coin thrown towards him, a
youth fell overboard, and would have been drowned but
for the prompt assistance rendered from the shore. He
was taken to a public house in an insensible state, where
by means of the usual restoratives, he, in about a couple
of hours, was enabled to leave, although in a very weak
and dangerous state. In the neighbourhood of White
chapel and! Poplar numerous accidents occurred. one,
particularly, in which a lad ignited a squib, and threw it
towards a horse attached to a cab. The animal imme-
diately took fright told started off at a furious rate, and
in its progress knocked down and very severely injured
several foot passengers. It was ultimately stayed by
coming against a heavily laden dust cart. In one pro-
cession, where Guido was dressed up in costly parapher-
nalia, and was proceeding along the Belvidere-road,
Lambeth, an inebriated individual set fire to Fawkes'
dress, when the poor boy was placed in great jeopardy,
but he was released by the speedy assistance of his
companions.
lioutortN-HILL VIA.DUCT.—A company has been
formed for the improvement of the thoroughfare from
Holborn-hill, across Farringdon-street, and along Skin-
ner-street to Snow-hill, by means of a viaduct level from
hill to hill. The viaduct is intended to commence at or
near the south end of Snow-hill, in Skinner-street, and
to terminate on the south side of Holborn-hill, nearly
opposite to Ely-place, striding the dangerous valley of
Farringdon-street, by about a 95 feet iron bridge, and
an elevation of about 22 feet clear headway. The total
length of the viaduct will be about 900 feet, and the su-
perstructure 50 feet. From Holborn-hill to Farringdon-
street the approach will embrace a portion of the site of
parts of the present buildings on the south side of the
street, so as to leave forty yards of the present roadway
on the north side, and it is intended to form a new
elevation abutting upon the viaduct, with ornamental
shop fronts, and under the viaduct will also be shops
fronting the present roadway, and communicating with
Farringdon-street. From the south side of Snow-hill,
in Skinner-street, to Farringdon-street, the approach
will embrace the whole width of Skinner-street (but
leaving the road along Snow-hill to Farringdon-street
untouched), and it is intended to open the properties oti
each side of Skinner-street to abut upon the viaduct
with elevations similar, or as near as may be deemed ad-
visable, to those intended to be formed on Holborn-hill.
The estimated cost of the works is 200,0001.

THE APPROACHINGBANQUET AT GUILDHALL.— On
Thursday evening, an experimental light of the gas chande-
liers, &c., as arranged for the Lord Mayor's banquet,
took place in the Guildhall, in the presence of about
1,000 spectators. The whole of the decorations of the
Hall are complete, and consist of groups of flags, ban-
ners, armour, &c. At the east end are shields, con-
taini the arms of all nations ; above are the words
..God
save the Queen," illuminated, and surrounded by
groups of flags, &cc. At the west end is a brilliantly
illuminated revolving strar. From the centre of the
ceiling is suspended a chandelier, and towards the east
and west ends are suspended
te two magnificent ehan-
defiers, which have not used since her Majesty's.
