the Chancellor of the Exchequer's official residence in
Downing-street.
THE VISIT OF THE QUEEN TO ALDERSHOT.—
His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the General
Commanding-in-Chief, and a large number of officers on the
staff, are expected to be present at the review of the troops
before her Majesty, at Aldershot, on Monday next.
No gold was taken from the Bank yesterday.
As fast as the Australian and American supplies come to
hand they are bought for the continent. Large purchases
of silver have also been made for Hamburg.
The arrival of the Maidstone and Sydenham from
Melbourne, with 33,980 oz. of gold, worth about £136,000,
was announced yesterday morning. By the Great Britain
intelligence has been received of the departure of several
gold ships, of which the Monarch sailed on the Ist of March
with about £171,000, and the Ellen Stuart on the 26th with
28,400.- The Fulton, from New York, has brought £20,000
for England, besides a considerable sum for France.
The sinking fund of £50,000 per annum on the
Turkish Four per Cent. Guaranteed Loan of £5,000,000,
which was to commence in four years from the date of the
contract, came into operation for the first time yesterday,
and bonds to that amount were drawn at the Bank in the
presence of the Ottoman Minister. The numbers will be
duly advertised in the Gazette, and the claim for interest on
such bonds will cease in August next, after which time 64
interest will be appropriated to increase the sinking fund,
which will be augmented in a similar manner every year.
The monthly return of the Bank of France yes-
terday shows a decline of £1,040,000 in the bullion, in ad-
dition to that of £522,000 shown in the preceding statement.
The total is now reduced to £20,700,000. There has been a
rather large increase in the discounts, accompanied by an
equal increase in the deposits, which seems to indicate that
the trading classes have been making provision for future
emergencies.

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT PRESTON.—About
six o'clock on Wednesday evening a fatal accident occurred
at the Dtepdale-street station, Preston, of the Fleetwood,
Preston, and West Riding Railway Company. A passen-
ger train for Long-ridge had been backed into a siding in
order that some goods waggons might be attached to it.
When the waggons had been coupled to the train, the guard,
James Waring, intimated to the engine-driver that one of
the waggons was not safe, and he requested him to back his
engine, that the defective waggon might be detached.
Whilst this was being done, Waring, who had uncoupled
the waggon, wss caught between the buffers of two of the
waggons, and so severely crushed as to cause his death
almost instantaneously. The deceased was about 30 years
of age, and has left a widow and one child. He was a very
steady man, and had been many years in the service of the
company, by whom he was much respected.-31anchester
Examiner.

SUNDAY PIIOTOGRAPIIING IN ST. MARTIN'S-IN-
THE-FIELDS.-At the meeting of the vestry of St. Mar-
tin's-in-the-Fields, held yesterday, Mr. Churchwarden
Petter in the chair, Mr. Hill moved a resolution to the
effect that steps be taken by the vestry to prevent photo-
graphers in that parish following their calling on the Sab-
bath, and that no frame or specimen be allowed to be exhi-
bited on that day. which having been adopted, the vestry
clerk was directed to call the attention of the Commis-
sioners of Police to the subject, with a view to a remedy.
TIIE LATE BOILER EXPLOSIONAT HUDDERSFIELD.
—The adjourned inquest on the body of Hannah Haigh,
whose death was caused by the boiler explosion at Messrs. E.
Learoyd and Co.'s mill, on the 28th ult., took place at Hud-
dersfield on Wednesday. The jury returned a verdict that
Hannah Haigh had died from the boiler explosion which
occurred on the 28th of April, the explosion having been
caused by over-pressure; and then add a rider to the ver-
dict, extending to considerable length, by which they, first,
condemn the act by which the boiler had been raised from
a 301 b. to a 501 b. pressure, without a proper and efficient
examination ; and, second, blame Mr. Holt, the Inspector
of the Huddersfield Boiler Association, for havine, on
the day previous to the explosion shifted the till to the end
of the lever, thereby increasing the pressure, without hav-
ing previously made an accurate internal examination of the
boiler, and without having a steam gauge of 'sufficient ca-
pacity to indicate the pressure. They concluded by calling
the immediate attention of the millovrners in the neighbour-
hood to the present very defective practice with regard to
the examination of sttani boilers.

SUICIDE OF A NEWSPAPER PROPRIETOR.—It is
with extreme regret we have to notice the death, by sui-
cide, of Mr. William Hadley, son of Mrs. Hadley, of
Queen's-buildings, and proprietor of the Cheltenham Jour-
nal. The melancholy occurrence took place on Saturday
night, at about half-past ten o'clock, in a bedroom attached
to that in which deceased had been in the habit of sleeping,
where he was found by his distressed and horror-stricken
mother suspended by a cord from the bed rail. The unfor-
tunate deceased had an inveterate drinking propensity,
which he indulged at frequent intervals, to the neglect of
business and the discomfiture of his friends. These habits ofintemperance had been induced primarily by trouble of a
domestic nature, and at different periods during the past
a
twelve months remarkable change had been noticed in the
deceased. He had become subject to continual depression,
generr.l lowness of spirits, and taciturnity.—Cheltenham
Eramtiler.

charged before the magistrates 'with stealing oz. of tea,
the property of Aldborough Phillips. It appears the pri-
lasta
soncr had been living as domestic servant with the prose-
cutor for the last four or five weeks, and that on Friday
morning, about half-past eight, he had occasion to leave
his parlour to go and see his wife, who was ill upstairs. On
his return he found that a quantity of tva had been taken
out of the tea-caddy whicji stood on the sideboard. He at
once taxed the girl with having taken it, which she denied;
but on her pockets being turned out some tea was found
wrapped in a piece of paper. She then confessed to having
taken the tea, but denied
.having ever stolen two and a-
half pounds of butter, of which her master also accused her.
She had only 2s. a-week wages, and had taken the tea for
her own use. The magistrate regretted very much that
Mr. Phillips had thought proper to proceed to such severe
measures with the poor girl, whose character must be for-
feited. They, however, inflicted the lightest punishment
the law permitted—one week's imprisonment,—West
