ALARMING FIRE AT WIIITECHAPEL.—L ate last
night a fire, which at ono time threatened Tory serious
consequences, happened in the extensive premises belong-
ing to Mr. Lazarus, a rag merchant, situate at No. 90,
Whitechapel road. The discovery was made by a police-
constable of the II division, who raised an immediate
alarm and sent off for proper assistance. In the course of
a few minutes conductors Samuel Wood and W. Rickett
arrived with the Royal Society's escape, and were followed
by numerous land steamers by Shand, Mason, and Co.
Plenty of the East London Company's water having been
procured, the firemen had the stand-pipes placed in Beck
and Co.'s hydrants, and by that expedient they wore
enabled to get the fire extinguished without calling tho
engines into operation, but not before some tons weight of
the stock in trade were destroyed. The origin of the fire

s unknown.
1)11. WARDER'S ClllLDREN.—Yesterday, at Vice-
Chancellor Stuart's Chambers, this case, before reported,
was concluded. Since it was last mentioned the parties had
been before Vico-Chancellor Stuart, and he had sanctioned
the children residing out of the jurisdiction of the court.
The next step will be for Miss Gunning, the guardian, to
present a memorial to the Crown, and there is every expec-
tation that the right to the forfeited property will be
waived in favour of the children. The property left by Dr.
Warder amounts in the whole to a considerable sum, and
on the conclusion of the proceedings it is satisfactory to
believe that it will come to the family. The chief clerk
signed the necessary documents in the case.

The Distress In Cornwall.

The Western Morning _News gives a very interest-
ing account of the condition of the Cornish miners.
Our contemporary says that the several thousand
minors who
have left the country during the past
year are physically, socially, and morally the best of
their class, and are also the more skilful in their em-
ployment.
Seven hundred miners have quitted the
St. Just district alone, and have betaken themselves
to the coal fields of South Wales and the North of
England. More than twice that number have left the
Marazion, Camborne, and Redruth districts for Ame-
tahnedll'ia ve

rica and Australia. A large number have gone from

a shilling for their wives apd families, for the simple
reason that there was nothing to leave. These have
had to depend upon the kindness of friends and the
forbearance of the shopkeepers, who themselves have
in many instances been reduced to insolvency through
the impossibility of
obtaining payment from their
debtors. From one savings bank alone £BOO per
month has been drawn out for about a year. Of
the able-bodied miners who remain in Cornwall
some have taken to the pilchard fishery, some to
farm labour. Those who have continued in their old
employments have too often been earning less than
£2 a month. A large number of the women and
girls who work on the surface of the mines have

women who burst into tears of joy when promised

is great self-restraint. it The Cornish miner in
his distress neither howls like a frantic Irishman,
nor curses with the bitter oaths of the drunken
collier of the black country ; he patiently endures
hunger, and cheerily works on in hope of
brighter days."
There are two favourable cir-
cumstances in the midst of all this depression and
gloom. The miners who have emigrated to Australia
and California are sending home considerable sums
to their wives, and during the past fortnight one
post-office alone has paid £4OO in orders received
from miners. The other circumstance is the im-
portant advance which has taken place during the
re.ent month in the price of tin and copper. This
13 -
is already producing effect in the increasing number
of hands now being taken on at the mines. So it is
to be hoped that the worst is over. It is greatly to
the credit of the Cornishmen that we have not
heard until the crisis of their sufferings is past how
grievous those sufferings have been.

RUNNING OYER AN OLD GENTLEMAN.—James Gaunt, a
cab-driver, was brought before Mr. Dayman, charged with
running over an old gentleman and breaking hie leg, be-
sides inflicting other injury, the defendant being at the
time of the occurrence drunk. .

A policeman said that at 12 last night he was on duty
at Knightsbridge, and came up just as the defendant had
run over an old gentleman. Defendant, after the occur
mice, drove off, but returning shortly afterwards to a
standing-place in the neighbourhood witness found that
ho was so drunk that he could with difficulty keep his
seat, and took him into custody. Witness had previously
conveyed the old gentleman to St. George's Hospital.
A night porter or watchman at Hankey and Nicholls,
Knightsbridge, said he witnessed the accident. The old
gentleman was crossing the road from Charles-street when
the defendant's horse knocked him down, and the wheels
of his cab (a hansom) passed over his legs. Ho was unable
to rise, and witness, assisted by others, conveyed him to
the pavement.

Mr. Dayman—How fast was the cabman going ?
Witness—Five or six miles an hour.

receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, .£2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will Ile required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give broad and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to tho really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received by the Bov. D. GILBERT, D.D.,j51.0, 22,

contained a few- thousands, and he has seen many
common tiles with hundreds of oysters on each.
The Whitstable of France is on the Ile de 116, where
may be seen a few thousand oyster parts and also a
few hundred claires, or fattening ponds, and hundreds
of thousands of oysters in all stages of growth, from
the size of a pip's head to a crown piece. One of
the many difficulties which the French oyster-growers
have had to solve is the construction of a proper
medium for the reception of the spat. Every kind
of material has been tried, branches of trees, logs of
wood, fragments of rock, and now tiles made of clay
are being extensively used, and with the greatest
possible success. At Arcachon a hive of an ingeni-
ous kind, that is, a suite of small boxes filled with
gravel, and contained in a larger box, was tried, and
was found to suit very well ; the best of all bottoms
could be constructed in the parts by the filling into
them of the numerous shell middens that are to be
found in some of the fishing places.
The formation of new parts and claires still goes
on on the French seaboard, new concessions of ground
for that purpose being frequently made, and a tour
to most of the fishing places of interest gives the
idea of the great future wealth to be obtained from
this source, more especially when the natural and
economic history of the oyster comes to be more
thoroughly known than it is at present.
The French people also grow mussels, on what is
now known as the artificial plan. About four miles
from Rochelle there may be seen a wonderful mussel
farm that has been profitably cultivated for hundreds
of years. The mussels are sold largely for food, and
afford a good living to the people who cultivate
them. The British fishermen might obtain a hint
from the mussel farm of Aiguillon and grow their
own bait, which is scarce and dear. The mussels
are grown on frames of basket-work, called bouchots,
and are larger and of finer flavour than the natural
mussel.

There is nothing that is very new to say about
the fresh-water fisheries of France. Huningue,
which has been already described, still con-
tinues to fulfil its mission, by sending out to the
barren rivers of France sufficient fish eggs for the
re-stocking of many of them ; and, it is satisfactory
to know, with good results, many of the' French
rivers, which a year or two ago were totally desti-
tute of fish, are being now wonderfully stocked. A
large number of district piscicultural reports have
been contributed to the manuscript department of
the Arcachon Exposition, and all of them were of
the most favourable character, giving full details of
the work done and the different kinds of fish that
had been manipulated for piscicultural purposes,
some of which were common enough, as carp, perch,
&c. In a Catholic country like France, where there
is an urgent demand for fish as fast-day food, it may
be necessary to cultivate the very commonest fishes ;
but in England, where the people are more fastidious
about their fish diet, it would not be profitable to
cultivate any other fish than that venison of the
waters—the salmon.

Central Criminal Court—This Day.

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Lush.)
THE ST. GILES'S MURDER.
The trial of John Richard Jeffreys having been placed at
the top of the list of cases to be takeu this morniug, Mr.
Daly made an application for the postponement of the
trial until to-morrow, as the lino of defence he intended to
take required he presence of certain witnesses, *hose at-
tendance could not be procured until to-morrow.
The learned judge granted the application.
The prisoner, on being arraigned on the charge of wil-
fully murdering his son, Richard Arthur Jeffreys, pleaded
not guilty.

THE MURDER IN SOMERS TOWN.
Mary Butcher, 35, married, was placed at the bar on the
charge of wilfully murdering Emma Butcher.
Mr. Gibson, the surgeon of Nowgate, stated that the
prisoner was in such a state of mind as to render her in-
capable of understanding the charge.
The learned judge then ordered her to be detained in
custody during her Majesty's pleasure.
Joseph Gairdelli, Timothy Nolan, and Edward Cane
were indicted for feloniously wounding William Paul with
intent to murder him.
The prosecutor and the prisoners it appeared had
formerly had a quarrel, and on the 12th of August the pri-
soners were standing at the corner of the Euston-road and
Tottenham-court-road when the prosecutor came up and
the old quarrel was resumed, and during which the pro-
secutor was stabbed in the stomach, as he alleged, by
Gairdelli. The injury was of a very serious description,
and the prosecutor was conveyed to the University,
Hospital, where ho remained some time, his life being in
considerable danger.
The jury acquitted Cane and Nolan, but found Gairdelli
guilty
Tho learned Judge sentenced the prisoner to 10 years'
penal servitude.

MARKETS.—This day.

MARK LANE.

The supply of English wheat on sale at Mark-lane to
day was very moderate. There was no activity in the
trade, and the market in some measure presented a some-
what holiday appearance, millers showing no disposition
to operate beyond their actual wants. The tone of the
market, however, was decidedly firm, and fully previous
sates wore obtained.

The market was moderately supplied with foreign
wheat. There was a fair demand for most descriptions,
and prices ruled very firm.
Floating cargoes of grain were in request: at fully late
rates.

In the country markets, held on Saturdey, there was a
fair demand fur wheat, at full prices of the previous week.
Barley, oats, beans, and peas ruled quiet, at about late
rates. The flour trade is firm, on former terms.
On the Continent, the .trade for wheat is firm, at full
quotations. For spring corn, however, there is only a
moderate demand, at late rates. At New York there has
bee❑ some speculation iu wheat and flour, and prices
have improved.
The arrivsls of English grain, &c., up to our markets
last week were very moderate. The imports from abroad
consisted of 19,211 quarters of wheat ; 2,523 barley;
36,396 oats ; 1,366. rye ; 644 beans; 1,251 peas; 6,017
linseed; 2,864 rapeseed; 2,185 maize ; 5,567 sacks, and
3,424 barrels of flour.
The supply of barley on sale was moderate. Good and
fine making produce was firm in price, otherwise, the
barley trade was quiet at previous quotations.
Malt was in slow request at late rates.
The supply of oats on sale was moderate. There was a
fair demand for most descriptions at previous quotations.
Beans met a slow sale at late rates. The market was
fairly supplied.
Peas were unaltered in value, and the trade ruled quiet.
The flour trade was in fair demand, and prices ruled
firm.

Linseed and rapeseed changed hsnds to a limited extent
on former terms. For other seeds there was but little
demand.

The cake trade was firm at full quotations.,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—l am sorry to have to inform you that a
portion of the Crystal Palace has been this day
seriously injured by fire. It appears to have origi-
nated in the north-east part of the tropical depart-
ment, where it was discovered about 2 o'clock p.m.
The company's staff and fire engines were at once on
duty, and Captain Shaw arrived about half-past 4
with the steam and other engines of the London
Fire Brigade, and a large force of firemen. By these
means the fire was rapidly subdued, and by 6 o'clock
all risk of its spreading beyond the tropical screen
was at an end.

The iron framework of the tropical end is mostly
standing, and apparently not severely injured ; but
the contents of that portion have been almost en-
tirely destroyed, except the Aboo Simbel figures and
a large part of the Alhambra Court. Except by
removal, nothing has suffered on the south side of
the screen.

I am thankful to say that no lives have been lost,
and no one seriously hurt. Superintendeuts Payne
and Walker, of the metropolitan police, were early
on the spot and rendered valuable assistance.
The Palace will be open, as usual, to-morrow
(Monday).—l am, sir, your obedient servant,
G. GROVE, Secretary.
