FATAL ACCIDENT FROM MACHINERY AT EDIN.
BURGH.— On Saturday morning an accident of a very painful
nature occurred in the glass-works of Mr. Ford, at the south
back of the Canongate. While at oy about 15 years of age,
named Adam Mtosh, was engaged in some of his usual oc-
cupations, he, by some means, got entangled/with the machi-
nery. Ills left arm was seized by a wheel-band ; and he was
Pulled up till he came in contact with the wheel, when the
arm was literally to' n ofl; and the poor lad fell to the ground,
and in a few minutes after expired.
Tna SLATE TRADE.—A considerable increase has
taken place during the last half-year in the export of slate
from the various quarries in North Wales. a circumstance at-
tributed to the repeal of the brick duty causing an impetus
to the erection of houses. From the port of Cat narvon
alone the exports for the last half-year have been 61,400
tons, being an increase of 11,000 tons over the prior half-
year, and for the month of February the shipment has been
to the extent of 6,200 tons. In other ports a large increase
is apparent.
"RETURNING SENSE.—Mr. Leach, of Manchester,
stated at a Chariot soiree at Sheffield lately, that " he had
spent eighteen of the best years of his life in speech-making,
but he would be sorry to waste the next eighteen years with-
out making a more sensible and manly effort towards doing
good."

Court of Illinois, at Springfield, early in January last. It
excited considerable interest. An agreed case was filed, and
it was moved that a peremptory mandamus be issued to
compel the auditor of public accounts to draw a warrant upon
the Treasury, for the proceeds of the two mill tax levied and
collected under the provisions of the new Constitution, to be'
applied en certain State bonds, presentel for payment the MC
first clay of January, 1851. The motion was resisted on the
following grounds:—
"1. That the Governor of the State was the person
charged by law with the appropriation and disbursement of
the two mill tax.
" 2. That the State had a right to retain a pro rata share
of the tax, and apply it upon the deposit made by the United
States with the State, under the Act of Congress for the dis-
tribution of the surplus revenue, as that deposit was a debt
due by the State.
" 3. That certain interest bonds had been presented to the
Governor, and that the holders of these bonds had a right to
share, pro rate, with other bondholders.
" 4. That all bondholders had a right to share in the dis-
tribution of the fund in controversy, notwithstanding they
failed to present the bonds for payment on the first day of
January, 1851, the day fixed by law for their presentation.
" 5% ritten arguments were filed for the relators, and for
respondents.
" The Court announced their decision, awarding a pe -
remptory writ of _mandamus according to the motion.
By this ilecision four important questions are determined,

A melodrama of what may be called the regular 1110°.
dramatic school, a melodrama of terror and of intense in
terest, was produced here last night, and, thanks to the
admirable acting of Mr. and Mrs. Charles' Kean, was trium
pliantly successful. The following is the plOt:--Palilin.

Bengal, has been struck by the valour displayed by
man ( Mr. C. Kean) at a tiger hunt, in which she believes
he has perished. However, when she returns to Horacefrie

of Rochester, Sir Charles Sedley, Nell Gwynne, aniere of
