CONVEYANCE OF NEWSPAPERS fhe London and
Birmingham, Grand Junction, Midland, • and Northern Railway Com-
panies have made arrangements in conjunction, for the conveyance
of newspapers by the ordinary Passenger trains, at a charge equal to
one-half the existing rate for parcels, provided that in no case tiro
charge for a single package be less than don
one shilling. The LOA
and Birmingham Railway Company, in giving notice of this ar-
rangementOl, require that the packages shall contain " newspapers
n
whenever
' and that they shall have authority to open and examine them
they have reason to believe that this regulation Is in-

ALL OF A LAGE C.—YeSteray 111111 g,
at a quartet before one o'cl3ck, the large chimney d
at the chemical
'works of 31r. Aluspratt, at the top of Vauxhall-road, Liverpool, fell
to the ground, but fortunately, without doing any injury to human
life, and very trifling to property, it only having destroyed three
of
the sheds used in the process of the manufacture. The chimney 'tu
been in a dilapidated state, and was about being taken down, the
preparations for which had weakened It, and so caused its fall. Pre-
videntially the occurrence took place in the night time, otherwise
the sacrifice of human life might have been great, as the men en"
gaged in taking the chimney down were at work until near nine
o'clock on the previous night. The chimney was built in the year
182 d, was thirty feet diameter at the base, nine feet at the top, 20
231 feet in height from the foundation, being at the time it w.as
erected the tallest in England. It contained 260,009 bricks, the
weight of which was 1,400 tons; it is worthy of remark, that tn?
chimney was built by six men, in the short space of six weeks a"
three days.—Liverpool Courier.
