The SURVEYOR said that the matter of complaint
could not be removed until the arrival of spring, in
consequence of the economical arrangements which it
had been considered necessary to adopt, and the gene-
ral accommodation of the public.
Gore, the dust contractor, was complained against
in three several instances, far having neglected to re-
move the dust from the premises of inhabitants.
The complainants stated that they had frequently
applied to the defendant's men to take away from their
hcuses the dust which had necessarily accumulated,
and that numerous promises had been made, all of
which had been broken.

COKE MANUFACTORY AT ALLOA. —A company
has recently been established, consisting of gentlemen con-
nected with Clackmannanshire and the neighbouring dis-
trict, including the south side of the Forth, for the manu-
facture of coke for railway purposes. The site that has been
selected for the works is the south ferry, opposite Alloa, in
the immediate neighbourhood of the terminus of the Alloa
branch of the Scottish Central Railway. The company
started with the intention of erecting sixteen ovens. Of
these several are already in operation, and the remainder are
in course of construction. The coal used in the manufacture
of the coke is brought from the north of England by sea ;
and among the advantages which Alloa possesses for being
the seat of stith a manufacture, is the easy navigation of its
harbour, even for large vessels, and the absence of dock,
river, and shore dues. In addition to these favourable cir-
cumstances it is situated in the very centre of the railway
district of Scotland, and a line of rails comes down to the
quay wherelhe works are erected, -so that the coke can be
forwarded to the various lines on which it is to be consumed
with even lets breakage than it would suffer in being con-
veyed from the English coal districts. We trust that this
laudable attempt to establish a work which, if carried to a
considerable extent, may give support to a number of fami-
lies in a neighbourhood where employment has lately been
scarce, will not fail to meet with the success it deserves, and
to reward its promoters for their risk and spirit in the enter-
prise.—Falkirk Herald.

PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 14.—The Margaret Evans
New York line of packet-ship, arrived to-day from
London.

At the Birmingham Town Council, on Tuesday
last, Alderman Baldwin brought forward the motion
of which he had given notice, for petitioning the
House of Commons for the total repeal of the duty on
paper, the stamps on newspapers, and the advertise-
ment duties. To prove that the duty on paper threw
obstacles in the way of the employment of operatives,
he remarked that, if it were abolished, he should be
able in the course of the next twelve months to
employ 500 additional hands either in the paper
manufacture or in operations connected immediately
with it. The duty on paper amounted to nearly halt
its value. Last year he paid 9,6401. in the shape of
duty, whilst the paper he manufactured did not sell
for more than 24,0001. And whilst he was pretty
well convinced that he did not make above one-third
of the paper that was consumed in Birmingham,
he probably manufactured in weight as much as
was used in making, wrapping, and re- wrapping
the goods that were exported from this town by
the merchants, so that this would be equal to
a tax of 10,000/. per annum on the Birmingham
merchants ; besides which, when goods arrive in
America, there was a tariff to be encountered of about
30 per cent., which would raise the tax to something,
like 13,0001. a year on the manufacturers and mer-
chants of this town on his make alone. But, going s
step beyond this, and keeping in view his estimate,
which he believed to be accurate, it would be seen
there is a gross tax on the people of Birmingham on
ail the paper consumed in it, amounting to something
like 39,0001. per annum; inasmuch as there was nu
torn iu the United Kingdom wherein, in proportion
to its population, so large an amount of paper is con-
sumed; for, according to the population, the fair
share of the tax with the rest of the count:v would be,
instead of 30,0001., not more than 7,0001. or 8,0001.
119 knew merchants who use twenty tuns of paper
annually in re-wrapping their goods; and keeping in
view th,..t the duty is 15/. per ton, the tax paid by each
or them on the article of paper alone is 3001. par year.
Tuere were few branches of Birmingham manufac-
ture wherein paper was not required. It is used in
making Florentine buttons, it is used for the bags to
put them in , it is used for making the boards on
which to card the metal buttons ; it is used in wrapping
up brass-foundry articles, japan goods, hinges, screws,
latches, jacks, bolts, candlesticks, and a great variety
of other articles. Alderman Baldwin exhibited spe-
cimens of button-boards, out of which blanks for
Florentine buttons had been cut, for the purpose of
showing that, taking into account the waste, the
paper-tax operated as a drawback to the extent of 301
per ton on the quantity used ; and that in fact the
paper- duty alone had the effect of raising the price of
common Florentine buttons nearly ten per cent. He
:also showed specimens of papier macho articles,
manufactured from sheets of paper pasted together,

Next to the roof the greatest progress has been
made with the flooring, the galleries, and the ar-
rangements of the exhibiting space. The flooring of
the basement has been pushed forward with great
rapidity, the planks being left with a small interval
between them, by which means the dust dropping
through the whole space will be easily kept clean.
There are to be four galleries—two called " Central,"
and running along the 24-feet aisles on
either side of the main aisle ; and two called
" Side," filling the second row pair of 24-feet
aisles from the centre. The flooring of these galleries
has also made great progress; and, judging of the
general effect of this part of the building from the
varied and delightful views which at every point the
finished portions present, the whole upper space, when
completed, will, we believe, be found quite as attrac-
tive as the basement area itself. On the east of the
transept on the south side Messrs. Fox and Hender-
son have fitted up roughly a portion of the ground in
such a manner as to illustrate to intending exhibitors
the different ways in which their allotments may be
arranged. The Commissioners, while permitting ex-
bibitors to take this upon themselves if they choose,
recommend all who may wish their fittings supplied
for them to have the work done by Messrs. Fox and
Henderson ; nor • will the. propriety of this plan be
questioned, as it is only fair to suppose that those
who have executed with such extraordinary rapidity
the general design of the great glass case within which
the specimens of the world's industry are all to be en-
shrined, are the best persons also to be entrusted with
the details of stalls and tables. The arrangements at
present contemplated give great frsedom to exhibitors in
the use of their allotments, and there appears to be
some danger lest the privileges thus granted should be
found inconsistent with that tasteful distribution of
articles which would secure the best and most har-
monious effect for the whole display. Besides, the
centre aisle, es hich is to be kept clear, and the pas-
sage round the building close to the external wall,
there are to be only two avenues open from end to
end. These will be eight feet wide, and will he in the
24. feet aisles, under what we have previously de-
scribed as the Side Galleries. The rest of the area,
and 'especially the aisles 48 feet wide, will be fitted up
with tables of different shapes, and the hanging space
between the pillars may be rend, red avagable for the
purposes of exhibition, cross passages, each eight feet
aide—or if two, five feet wide—being kept clear in
each section of 24 feet. The result of this will no
doubt be that great portions of the lower area of the
building; notwithstanding its present open character and
the unrestrained manner in which the eye can new roam
to every point, will be entirely blocked up. The effect
of diverging pillars, and avenues branching off on
all sides with symmetrical precision, will be lost, and
except in the centre aisle, or beneath the side galle-
ries, along which last the visitor will look through a
sort of tunnel perspective, he must wander amid a
perfect maze of industrial products without even the
fabulous clue to guide his steps. Perhaps this ar-
rangement is nut to be avoided, for the exhibiting
space, large as it is, has not been found equal to the
demand. The overcrowding of stalls, however, is an
evil which will detract seriously from the general
character of the display, and it is to be hoped that,
after so much preparation and forethought, the die..
tinction between an Exposition and a Bazaar may
not at last be lost sight of. The galleries are being
surrounded with a light, simple, and elegent
which will add much to their appearance, and are of
course indispensable.
The decorative labaurs of the undertaking have
hardly yet made any progress—a small portion of the
transept roof has been painted in the colours decided
unon by the Commissioners, who, it will be recol-
lected, modified the more objectionable features of
Mr. Owen Jones' design. The effect promises well,
the brilliant blue especially looking extremely cool
and refreshing. In a few days this part of the work
will be more advanced, and its merits can then be
snore fairly canvassed. Nearly all the " Louvre"
boards for ventilation are in their places. They have
been so constructed that a length of 300 feet can be
opened or closed, or adjusted in any desired way to
regulate the temperature, at once and in the simplest
manner. They certainly give variety to the general
character of the building, and it is to be hoped that they
w ill be found effectual to prevent any condensation on
the iron beams of the 'too; and the consequent inconve-
nience of a drip on the valuable products which the edi-
fice will contain. Se far has the entire work been carried
on that the contractors have at last reached the doors.
There are to be four exits at the east end, four at the

Commodore Martin's squadron—Prince Regent,
90 ; Leander, 52 ; Phaeton, 50 ; Arethusa, 50 ;
Dauntless, 24; Retribution, 22; and Encounter,
14; were refitting in the Tagus on the 9th. We re-
gret to add the Commodore was seriously indisposed.

Air. Deputy LOTT asked how many times Gore had
been fined ?

FATAL COLLISION ON THE EASTERN
COUNTIES RAILWAY.

Mr. DAW (the chief clerk)--I cannot say how
many times.—(A laugh.)
Mr. 11. L. TAYLOR said the Court were bound to
do all they could to oblige the contractor to do his
duty. He regretted the contract which had been
made with Gore limited the penalty for each viola-
tion to 10s., and he moved that the full fine be
inflicted in each of the cases.
Mr. H. BLAKE said he trusted the Court would
see the propriety of altering the specifications in the
next contract, so that they might have the power
to punish violations of it in a snore effectual man-
ner.—(Hear, hear.) The present penalties were
absolutely a premium for neglect, for a contractor
by keeping his horses disengaged from the work
which ought to be performed would pocket much
more money than he could lose by paying the fines.
Gore was then fined the full penalty for each of-
fence, and the Court intimated that he would, in all
probability, be prohibited from participating in future
contracts.

An inquiry of three days' duration was concluded yes-
terday at the Railway Inn, adjacent to the Ponders-end
station of the Eastern Counties Railway, before Mr.
Higgs, the coroner for the Duchy of Lancaster, concern-
ing the death of Vincent Ladwick, a night inspector at
the station, who was killed on Wednesday last by a spe-
cial train coming in contact with a goods truck, which he
was removing into a siding.
Mr. Hawley, from the office of the solicitors to the
company, was present to watch the evidence, and Mr. G.
Richardson, the superintendent of the 'tine, and other
officials attended to afford every information. It may be
at once mentioned that the special train was conveying e
gentleman named Haviland from London to Cambridge,

DESTRUCTION OP A FLOCK Or SHEEP AT FISHER-
ROW.—On Tuesday evening, about seven o'clock, the pas-
sengers in the Musselburgh train from Edinburgh, while
descending the deep incline towards Fisherrow, were a little
surprised, if not alarmed, at the motion of the carriages be-
coming for a few moments irregular and unsteady. It was
soon found that in the darkness the engine had made its way
through a flock of sheep straying upon the line. Fifteen
carcases were found quite mangled and torn asunder, and four
other sheep were. so lacerated that they were immediately
killed. It appeared that the sheep, numbering fifty, left
Elphinstone, East Lothian; in the morning, and reached
Fisherrow at two o'clock. There the drover rested in a
tavern fur some hours, and on resuming his journey to Edin-
burgh the sheep again wandered on a part of the Fisherrow
line, not now used, and thence on to the incline. The con-
duct of the droVer is, we believe, undergoing jud,cial investi-
gation for contravening the Railway ict.--Edinburgh

In his summing up yesterday, the Coroner told the
jury that the deceased was doing his best in getting a
truck over the line; and as it had been stated that it
would require twenty minutes to run and place the fog
signal six hundred yards beyond the obstruction and to
get back, it was obvious that he could not have done ii.
'Fben, with reference to the special train, did they con-
sider that the driver of the engine observed that caution
which was expected from him when runnieg under such
peculiar circumstances? They had evidence us to the
rat, he was going; they would judge whether he was
goitig at a reckless speed. If they were satisfied that
he wfei, and that he did not exercise that precautiou
which he ought under the circumstances, th*n ver-
dict would be one tt4t would criminally affect him.
The room was then cleared of strangers, and after

STATE OF TRADE.—MANDHEsTER, TUESDAY.—By
the Africa we were yesterday in receipt of letters from New
York to the let inst. Cotton was arriving freely at the
ports, and, as a consequence, persons who have raised or re-
duced their estimates of the crop with almost each succeed •
ing mail, are again advancing the estimates. The fallacy of
this time will show. Meanwhile our planters continue to
push their cotton upon the market. Orders, hence, will be
profitably filled. The receipts into the ports are behind
those of last season 30,000 bales. The exports to Great
Britain are 20,090 bales in excess of last season. The total
stock is 19,000 bales less. They write—" We have nothing
new to remark about the crop, and are satisfied with our
opinion, so often expressed, that the aggregate will not vary
much from 2,007,000 bales." Chia market, apparently
sympathising with the Liverpool, has been very quiet to-day
in bath goods and yarns, but stocks being low and producers
mostly engaged, prices may be considered without change,
though some quote them lower in certain instances. The
German, Brazilian, and Calcntta advices are good.

MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER HUSBAND.—Last
evening Mr. H. M. Wakley held an inquest at the Prince
of Wales, Sudeley-street, Islington, on Sarah, aged 63, the
wife
of
Thomas Johnson, an old soldier, who lately followed
the trade of shoemaking. The case was reported yesterday
under " Clerkenwell Police" head. The only new evidence
was that of Elizabeth Batty, a schoolmistress, occupying the
apartment adjoining deceased's, who deposed that about
twelve o'clock on Saturday night she heard a dreadful noise
in her room, but of which she took no notice, as deceased and
her husband were always quarrelling. The noise resembled
that created by the upsetting of cups and saucers, and of the
furniture. She heard deceased's husband exclaim, " You old
I'll do for you." After which she heard a heavy fall on
the floor. All was then silent. In the morning witness was
awoke by the police, who asked her if she knew anything of
the murder? She replied in the negative, and then went to
seek deceased. Sarah Harris stated that she had frequently
beard deceased and her husband quarrelling, and they were
both addicted to drunkenness. The jury deliberated a short
time, and returned a verdict of manslaughter against the
husband, whose committal to Newgate the coroner handed
to the police. Deceased and her husband had been married
43 years, and lived in the neighbourhood upards of 20 years,
during which time the husband rendered himself notorious
for his brutal treatment of deceased.
ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.-011 Saturday after-
noon a most unfortunate and fatal accident happened at
Grays Thurrock. A boat containing nine persons—viz., two
waterrneu, two women, and five children, was being rowed
over the river. A coal brig going down the river unfortu-
nately ran them down, and the whole party met a watery
grave. The names are at present unknown. It is supposed
to have happened in consequence of the weather having been
so foggy that the brig was upon them before they had the
chance of getting out of the way.

;!free hoLr,' ileliberation, the foreman aunounceil that

they had agreed upon a verdict of manslaughter
against Ronald Baxter, the driver of the engine of the
special train. They also handed in the following as en
addenda to their verdict:—" The jury cannot teparato
without expressing !heir unanimou; opinion that the
duties assigned to the deceased, who was killed during
their proper performance, wore more multifterious than n

Perti,„''r the plaintiff for a sum of 921. 6s. 7d., or such
%ten " the Court might think fit. This was an sc-
at ti,;°,llght tzt the sittings after last Michaelmas term

t,-° sold and delivered to the defendant's wife

te 19th January, 1847, and the 10th
atte,,Ler, 1848. During that time the defend -

lived in Jersey, and the defendant himself in
were -I.u; and for the defence it was alleged that they
separate from each other, and that the de-
little,' wade her a sufficient allowance, and was not

that"idenee brought forward on the trial, it appeared
settlee defendant's wife was entitled by her marriage
aid It ent to an annual income arising from Bank Stock
'
rie°lllB(43 to the amount of 6251, which was paid
hilit3l.l into the bands of the defendant, and by
he Putctually transmitted to his wife, though
the annself was at that time living under
vari PreFsure of urgent necessities. Extracts from
letters from the defendant to his wife were read
withtl...T trial, but the Learned Judge expressed a
Court,
the whole letters should be brought before
with a view to ascertain whether they con-
k). " any distinct recognition of agency. For this
1)?ae the Learned Judge kft it to the jury to find
%truer the parties wore living separate at the time,
ttu whether the defendant's wife bad a sufficient main-
tide4ctiles during the period. Both these questions were de-
eo in thil affirmative by the jury. The Learned

telling her of his difficulties, and
itlng her to return to London that they might live 1
gether and unite their incomes, with a view to more
iittriagent economy. From these the Learned Counsel
(11;:tended that, though the parties were living away from
it-h other, the wife was still part of the defendant's
~.49141Y, and he was liable for all the debts which she
'4lftlit contract.
rLord Chief Justice JERVIS said, that though the de-
ant by his letters invited his wife to return to him,
°le was nothing to show that she agreed to this, nor
Was there in the letters any distinct recognition of her
agencye to contract debts for him. He therefore thought
re should be no rule.—ltulo refused.

the charge-of the official manager against the directors of
the above-named company, for appropriating to their own
use the sum of 106,0301., arising from the deposits of ,l. per
share paid by the shareholders, was resumed before Master
Blunt. The inquiry lasted from eleven to four o'clock, and
the various parties interested were represented in the same
manner as on the previous occasion. Mr..D. Mildred, of the
firm of Masterrnan and Co., and Mr. Keddell, the solicitor
to the company, were among those examined. Mr. Quilter,
the official manager, proved that there were funds of the
company imthe Bank of England to the extent of 17,60.. q.,

Government. Mr. Rose, a solicitor, had in his possession all
the material papers relating to the company, which he re-

eight men, havibg secured the captain arid mate in the cabin,
proceeded to rifle the vessel of every article of value ; and,
among other property of a portable description, carried off the

Two nights ago a soldier of artillery stationed at
the Ecole Militaire, returned to his corps in a most horrible
state; hislower jaw was broken, his face bore the marks of
having been trampled on. by nailed boots, his body was
covered with wounds and bruises, and his clothes were torn
and covered with mud. • The man stated that an individual
he had met at Greuelle had taken him into a public-house,
and after giving him drink, had declared that he had felt
vengeance against the artillerymen, and had then, aided by
another individual, most infarriously ill-treated him. His
comrades, on hetring.this story, resolved to avenge him, un-
known to their chiefs ; and the next morning thirty of them
went to the public-house. On seeing them approach the
landlord ran away, but the soldiers drawing their swords,
smashed the windows, the furniture, the clocks, and every-
thing they could lay their hands on. They continued in Otis
work of destruction until an armed force arrived from the
barrier.—Paris Paper.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AND MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.—
This morning, shortly before one o'clock, a fire, which de-
stroyed considerable property and was nearly attended with
fatal consequences to several persons, broke out ou the pre-
mises belonging to Mr. J. Murray, a tallow-chandler and
oilman, carrying on business at 49, Bridge-house-place,
Newington-causeway. Police-constable 277, of the M divi-
sion was the first person to discover the fire, by seeing an
unusual glare of light shining through the fanlight over the
shop door. Before sufficient time had elapsed to sound an
alarm Mr. and Mrs. Murray with an infant made their ap-
pearance at one of the upper windows, and were going to
jump out. The constable, however, called to them, and per-
suaded them to remain until assistance could be obtained to
romove them. The inmates of the Colonial Coffee-house,
next door, having been aroused, they succeeded in helping
Mr. Murray and his family along one of the
pent houses into the adjoining building, and
thereby saved their lives. The Royal Society's fire-
escapes, with numerous engines of the London brigade and
that of the West of England Company, were remarkably
early in arriving, when the firemen found the whole of the
back portion of the premises, as well as the principal Dart of
the front, in one immense body of dame. Plenty of water
having been obtained from the Lambeth mains in the dis-
trict, the engines were called into operation, and the firemen,
by ascending the escapes, were enabled to pour vast torrents
of water upon the tire, but it was, notwithstanding, nearly two
o'clock before the conflagration could be subdued, ankl not
before the whole of the back rooms, the shop and warehouse,
and many of the front rooms were burnt out. The total loss
must be something considerable; and during the excitement,ir
er
that prevailed it was impossible to learn whether thes,n
sufferer
was insured or not. Mr. Superintendent Baynes and d Li-
