FIRE ATA BLEACTIWORKS TN PREST-

TVICH.

Early on Wednesday morning a destructive fire
occurred on the premises of Messrs. J. and If.
Bleackloy, dyers and bleachers, of the Myrtle
Grove Works, Prestwich. The works are situated
in the valley, a little beyond the church on Kersal
Moor, and consist of a number of contiguous build-
ings, containing the various kinds of machinery em-
ployed in the processes of bleaching, dyeing,
calendering, and making up. A few minutes after
twelve o'clock yesterday morning, a private watch-
man discovered that a fire had commenced in a
three-storey building, about 40 yards long by 30
yards wide, which was partially divided from the
dyehouse by a wall. He immediately gave an
alarm by ringing a bell. A number of the work-
people and others quickly arrived, and a messenger
was despatched on horseback to Manchester
for the fire engines. There was a small fire
engine on the premises, and an abundant
supply of water in the reservoirs adjoining ;
but from some cause the engine could not be
got to work, and the rapidity with which the
flames spread in the three storeys rendered the
efforts of the men unavailing. In about three
quarters of an hour from the discovery assistance
arrived—one engine from Manchester, another
from Salford, and a third worked by the Broughton
volunteers. On their reaching the place, how-
ever, there was no hope of saving the contents of
that portion of the building, and it required their
utmost efforts to prevent the fire communicating
with the other parts,soine of which did become ignited,
but the fire was quenched. The fire continued to
rage until about three o'clock, but at four was sup-
pressed beyond further danger, although water
was being discharged into the ruins during
the whole of the forenoon. Of the portion de-
stroyed, the lower storey contained the bowk-
house, and comprised a wash-wheel, two pair of
squeezers, one stiffening mangle, and a large
calender not in use. The remains of these are
covered with the burned floors, roof, and
some of the brickwork of the walls. The
two storeys above contained a pair of drying cylin-
ders, a damping calender, two making-up rooms, in
which were tables, hooking frames, and goods.
Some portion of the goods were saved, bat the
other, with the various machines, were either
seriously damaged or consumed.

The Sewer Flood in Belgravia.

Few persons who are not actual sufferers have
any notion of the frequency with which, not so
very long ago, the districts in London which lie in
the line of the great sewers were liable to inunda-
tions of sewer-water during great storms. iVithin
these very few years any severe thunderstorm would
inundate the basements of houses in certain parts Of
Bond-street near the King's Scholarspond sewer,
and of the Wcstbourne district of Paddington near
the Ranelagh sewer; but since these sewers have
been reconstructed and connected with the Metro-
politan Main Drainage such accidents have ceased.
Still, however, the important districts which are
waiting for the completion of the low level sewer,
especially the lower parts of South Belgravia, are
exposed once in every two or three years to this
horrid nuisance. These districts arc below high-
water mark, and if their sewers were not protected
by flap valves would be inundated by a reflux of
the Thames through the sewers at every high tide.
As it is, during the period of high water nothing can
flow out from the sewers, whose contents gradually
accumulate till the fall of the tide allows them to
disgorge themselves into the river. But if, during
Ugh tide; there should be an unusual rainfall, of
course the sewers will be filled to an extraordinary
degree, and will regurgitate into the drains of
the houses which open into them, unless the latter
are protected by flap-valves, as they always should
be, to keep out gases, rats, and reflux water. The
unlucky combination of high tide with violent rain-
fall occurred last week, and, in consequenco,
.the
kitchens and cellars of houses in such low lying
districts as the Vaxhall-road, the Victoria sta-
tion, and South Belgravia generally
floo w ere.
with dilute sewer-water, to the height in s ded

all classes in a community. As to the antiquity of our
present system, this was one of the improvements of
modern civilisation, from which great results might be
expected.
On a division, the Lords' amendment was carried. by
253 to 204.
Tho next amendment was consequent on the last, and
provided for the case of the city of London, restricting
the number of votes to be given by each elector to three.
Its rejection was moved by Mr. Crawford, seconded by
Mr. Alderman Lawrence, but on a division it was ratified
by 252 to 188.
Several unimportant amendments were agreed to, and
the voting paper clause was then taken.
The CtIANCELLOII of the EXCHEQUER, with a view
to facilitating a compromise, proposed to omit boroughs
from its operation, but
Mr. GLADSTONE declined to accept it, and moved that
the house disagree with the amendment.
The clause was supported by Mr. Hardy, and opposed
by Mr. Dodson, Mr. Torrens, Mr. Villiers, and Mr. Bright,
who urged that it would lead to the wholesale manufacture
of fictitious votes, to fraud, and intimidation, and spoke
with great dissatisfaction of the machinery provided by
the Lords ; by Mr. Mill, who declared that he would pre-
fer no bill at all to one saddled with such a condition ;
and by Mr. Newdogato.
Mr. DISRAELI'S amendment was agreed to, but on
division the clause was rejected by a majority of 52-258
to 206.
Another clause, containing further arrangements for
giving the borough franchise to the resident members of
the Universities, was struck out by 188 to 164. The
other amendments ware disposed of, and a committee was
appointed to draw up reasons to be assigned to the Lords
for disagreeing with their amendments.
The Army Reserve Bill was read a third time and
passed.
Some other orders were forwarded a stage, and the
house adjourned at a quarter past two o'clock.

China. The French troops oecupied the towns of
Ving Lung, Sadec, Chandoc, and Hatien without
firing a shot, the mandarins of these places opening
their gates with the unanimous consent of the in-
habitants. The annexation of these territories to
France has been effected 'oceans° they served as
refuges to pirates and agitators. A proclamation
of Admiral de la Grandiere, dated 25th June, says :
Henceforth the six provinces of Lower Cochin
China are and will remain French territory."

The Sewage Utilisation Act of 1867, for facilitat-
ing the distribution of town sewage for agricultural pur-
poses, has just been printed, as passed by the House of
Commons. Local boards may provide any works for re-
ceiving, storing, disinfecting, or distributing sewage with-
in their respective districts, and in districts where no local
boards exist a special authority may be created for the
purpose. Such boards or authorities may purchase any
requisite lands, and for agricultural objects may lease 14/1,1
fora period not exceeding, seven years, or may contract to
share the produce or farm it and dispose of the produce.
Different districts may unite for these ends. Authorities
under the act may also agree to contribute to any outlay
on the part of private capitalists or public companies for
carrying sewage plans into execution, and, as regards
companies, may become shareholders. All assessments
under the act are to be included in the poor rates.
CHARGE OF INTIMIDATING WORKMEN.—At Not-
tingham, on Tuesday, seven men, lacemakers, were sum-
moned on the charge of intimidating Thomas Roe, a lace-
maker, in the employ of Messrs. Hardy and Galloway, and
endeavouring to force him to leave his work. After some
discussion, it was resolved to adjourn the case until the
decision of the Court of Queen's Bench is known in the
matter of the operative tailors' strike in London, the de-
fendants and Mr. West, the secretary of the Lacemakers'
Trade Union at Nottingham, undertaking that neither the
complainant nor any other workman in Messrs. Galloway

STALE OF T RADE.

BRADFORD, Aug. B.—There is a better feeling in
the wool market. The degree of firmness esta-
blished last week seems to be fairly maintained.
Prior to that time there had, as will be remembered,
been for a long time great irregularity in prices, and
almost a constant tendency to decline; but this
condition of things has now disappeared, and if
there is no actual improvement in the shape
of adrance, at any rate the b Isis of prices then
established seems to be regarded as that in which
spinners may safely operate. The result is that
staplers seem more firm, while, at the same time, in
the better prospect of fixity of quotations, no
timidity is shown on the part of spinners, but more
disposition to operate. Fine-haired wools are in
steady demand, while Lincoln wools, especially
hogs, are almost unsaleable. In worsted yarns
there is no improvement. Shipping merchants aro
doing little or nothing, and though there is a fair
consumptive demand on home account, there is
nothing like animation in this branch. Prices' are
not generally lower, although some spinners seek to
induce their customers to place orders by making a
slight concession.

Commerce of Victoria," by which it will be seen that their
whiskies fetch 6d. per gallon and Is. per case over the next
best, and Is. 6d per gallon and ss. 6d. a case over the lowest

AQUATICS.

BERMONDSEY REGATTA.
This watermau's wager for a now boat, value £23, and
money prizes, took place on Thursday, under, the manage-
ment of Alexander Grace, but in all his efforts to carry
out the affair satisfactorily were marred by the conduct of
G. Baker, of Mill-stairs, one of the competitors, whe in
one heat kept the men exactly ono hour at the post simply
because ho was not allowed a long start. In the final heat
ho and 11rilliam Deal, a man 15 years his senior, and de-
servedly respected, came together, and after a great deal
of shuffling Baker got the lead in 2.00 yards. Deal broke
his right hand scull, but getting another, he started after
his man, who was 12 lengths ahead, and gradually rowed
him down, so that when Deal caught him ho crossed and
fouled Deal twie. The manager would have no more of
this disgracefulc conduct, ands d
the boat to Deal,
giving universal satisfaction.
London, England, 1867-08-09

George Simpson, of 5, Caledonia-street, Pimlico, said
that he was a boatbuilder and waterman. Yesterday
afternoon ho was painting a barge in tho " Lnyby" of the
Grosvenor-basin, when the defendant and some other boys
commenced pelting him with stones. Ono that tho defen-
dant throw struck him on -the foot. His master, who wit-
nessed the trarsaction, ran rater the defendant, and he was
handed over to the police.
Mr. Thos. Hither, the master of the last witness, said
that he saw the defendant and two other other boys pelt-
ing the last witness with stones, and when they wore
spoken to they made use of bad language. Witness ran
after the boys, and in the Grosvenor-road ho saw the de-
fendant take off a little boy's cap and hide it under his
coat. Witness charged him with stealing the cap. A
police-constable came up, and he gave the defendant
into custody.
Mr. Solfe said such dangerous proceedings must be put a
stop to, and he should fine defendant in the sum of 55., or
seven days' imprisonment.
The money was paid by the boy's mother, and he left
the court in her charge.
London, England, 1867-08-09

Tho Lett amendment 'cr )nseq' .
provided for the case of the city of Loadon,-nostricting
the number of votes to be given by each elector to three.
Its rejection was moved by Mr. Crawford, seconded by
Mr. Alderman Lawrence, bat' on a division it was ratified
by 252 to 188.
Several unimportant amendmente were agreed to, and
the voting paper clause was then taken.
The CdANCELLOR of the EX.:CHEWER, with a view
to facilitnting a compromise„proposed to omit boroughs
from its operation, but
Mr. GLADSTONE declined to accept it, and moved thlt
the house disagree with the amendment.
The clause was supported by Mr. llardy, and opposd
by Mr. Dodson, Mr. Torrvni, Mr. Villiers, and Mr. 13,-ight,
who urged that it would lead to the wholesale manufacture
of fictitious votes, to fraud, and intimidation, and spoke
with great dissatisfaction of the machinery provided by
the Lords; by Mr. Mill, who declared that. ho would pre-
fer no bill at all to ono saddled with such a condition ;
and by Mr. Newdegate.
Mr. DisaAla.fs amendment was agreed to, but on a
division the clause was rejected by a majority of 52-238
to 206.
Another clause, containing further arrangements for
giving the borcugh franchise to the resident members of
the *Universities, was struck out by 188 to 161. The
other amendments wcro disposed of, and a committee was
.appointed to draw up reasons to be assigned to the Lords
for disagreeing with their amendments.
The Army Reserve Bill was road a third time and

passed.
Some other orders were forwarded a stage, end the
house adjourned at a quarter past two o'clock.

LONDOY, 1 lILTSDAY, FEB. 7, 1867.

What will Lord DERBY do is a question that is
pretty generally asked just now, and to which
many various answers are given. Perhaps, how-
ever, the doubts and difficulties that seem to en-
velope the matter of Peform iu the hands of the pre-
sent advisers of the Crown are more in vision than
reality, more the creation of fiction than the illus-
tration of sober facts. A very pertinent reply to
this question was given by one who signs himself
