LATEST NEWS.

The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post
(Second Edition) says :

" There is every reason to suppose Russia has
already offered assistance to China. It is also
declared that a new secret treaty was signed be-
tween Russia and Persia within the last eight
weeks. It is known from despatches that have
reached Paris considerable forces have been de-
spatched lately towards the Chinese and Persian
frontiers."

The Paris correspondent of the Times' (second
edition) says
"The basis of the pending negotiations may be
modified by the last news from Teheran ; but,
notwithstanding the delay, it is hoped that an
arrangememt is still within the limits of pro-
bability,"

SUPPLY OF GUANO.

In reply to Lord NAAS,
Mr. LABOUCHERE said that some difficulty bad
arisen with reference to the supply of guano from the
native tribes near the islands of Jiblea, Hanki, and
Gutzqud, on the coast of Arabia, believing they had
some right to the guano, which was now under investi-
gation. Messrs. Ord, Hudson, and Hayes had a licence
which gave them a monopoly of the trade for five years,
four of which were unexpired.

The returns of circulation of the Irish and Scotch
banks for the four weeks ending the 17th of January,

several banks, as given in the Banking Almanac, the
following appears to be the state of the circulation :

The Irish banks are above their fixed issue £814,113
The Scotch banks are above their fixed issue 1,037,969

Total above the fixed issue .

,X 1,852,082

of the Bank of England for the game period, will give
the following results of the circulation of notes in the

THE EASTERN STEAM NATIGATION

COMPANY.

At a meeting of this company, held yesterday,
Mr. Hope presiding, the report and accounts were
adopted. With respect to the progress of the ves-
sel it was stated that it is expected to be so far
completed as to allow of its being launched in Au-
gust, when a trial trip is contemplated. A length-
ened discussion took place regarding the difficulties
encountered and the efforts made to meet them.
Several shareholders complained of the long arrears
of calls, and desired information concerning the
amount likely to be ultimately recovered. It was
explained that of the 192,0001. about 64,0001. is
considered good, and that legal proceedings will be
resorted to for obtaining payment. Included in tho
arrears are the calls due from Mr. Scott Russell,
the late contractor, who held a considerable number
of shares, while other parties have also become in-
solvent and unable to meet their engagements. The
directors will take measures for forfeiting shares,
but in adopting this course will not abandon their
right to sue for the payment of calls. During the
debate a misapprehension arose with regard to the
amount which will be required to complete the ves-
sel, Mr. Brunel, the et,gitieer, stating that 100,0001.
will be an approximate estimate, which the re-
sources of the company can supply. One of the
retiring direc' ors differed from this opinion, and
asserted that 60,0001. or 70,0001. further capital will
be required to put the vessel to sea in condition.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Only a limited supply of boasts, both as to number and
4uality was on sale in to-day's market. The trade, how•
•ver, ruled heavy at about Monday's quotations. The show
of sheep was trifling, and the demand for all kinds was
brisk at extreme currencies. We were fairly supplied with
calves, which moved off steadily at full prices. Pigs were
dull, but not cheaper. In milch cows next to nothing was
doing.

LONDON CORPORATION REFORM.

Mr, HANKEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department when he intended to proceed with
the bill for the reform of the Corporation of London I
Sir G. GREY said that the delay had arisen from two
causes —one in consequence of his having recently re-
ceived a communication from the Lord Mayor relative to
the subject, which it was wished he (Sir G. Grey)
should read before introducing his measures. He only re-
ceived the resolution yesterday, and had not yet been able
to read them. Independently of that the state of pub-
lic business was such that there was no cbance of its
being proceedei with, and consequently no loss of time
bad arisen by the delay-

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—{'Iris Day.)

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before Lord Campbell and a Special Jury.)
HARRISON V KNIGHTLIET,

The plaintiff, Adolphus Harrison, was the same roan
who brought an action a few days since in the Queen's
Bench, Westminster, against the Marquis of Bath, and
the defendant was Mr. Knightley, M.P. for Northamp-
tonshire.
The jury havjng been sworn,
- -

- _
Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., with whom was Mr. Mil-
word, said that the plaintiff in this case did not appear.
The action was brought under circumstances precisely
similar to those of the Marquis of Bath, and which would
be fresh in the recollection of h►s lordship. It was an
attempt to extort money from Mr. Knightley, the mem-
ber for Northamptonshire, in a similar way that money
was attempted to be extorted from the Marquis of Bath.
As the plaintiff did not appear perhaps his lordship
would all )tv the jury to return a verdict for the defen-
dant.

----
Lord Campbell said he conli not do that. Tho plain-
tiff must be nonsuited. . .. _

Adolphus Harrison was then called, but as he did not
appear a non-suit was entered.
Lord Campbell expressed his satisfaction that the
plaintiff did not appear, for if he bad been put into the
box, and had given the same evidence as on a former
occasion, he would very likely have laid himself open to
an indictment for subornation of perjury.
Mr. James said there were many of these actions
going against several persons for the purpose of extort-
ing money. They were going on in every direction.
The solicitor for the plaintiff said there were no other
actions pending. This action would not have been
abandoned except for the fact that there would have been
some difficulty in proving the delivery of the goods.
Lord Campbell said he was net finding fault now. On
the contrary, he had expressed his satisfaction that the
case was not to be proceeded with.
The plaintiff was accordingly non-suited.

ral branches of the service will also affect the corps of

will be the reduction of the corps of Royal Marines by
1,050 men, including six captains, 12 subalterns, and a
proportionate number of non-commissioned officers ; the

BRITISH GUIANA.

Mr. LIDDELL asked whether it wastrue that in con-
sequence of a resolution passed by the Combined Court,
a communication was addressed by the Governor of
British Guiana to her Majesty's Colonial Secretary in
June last, on the subject of receiving convicts from this
country ; and, if so, whether there was any objection to
lay a copy of such correspondence on the table of the
house '1

Mr. LABOUCHERE said that such a resolution
was passed, and a communication made to this country
by the Colonial Legislature, but it was not considered
desirable, from the climate of the country, to make that
a penal settlement for British convicts, and he was
happy to find the French Government had come to a
similar resolution with regard to Cayenne. The paper
required should be produced.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

The fire began to blaze from the air-shaft about
4 o'clock, and sent up an immense number of
sparks and pieces of burning wood, which had a
most terrible appearance. About 7 o'clock the pro-
prietors and managers of the pit had a conference,
and decided to stop up the mouths of the working
shafts with planks and earth, as the only way of
stopping the draught up the air-mine and subduing
the fire. The plan was attended with partial suc-
cess, and about half-past 8 o'clock the flames ceased
to ascend above the surface of the ground.
Previous to this several miners bad entered the
pit, and penetrated some distance along the main
tramway, but found the workings so full of sulphur
as to preclude all entrance into them. The Map-
pings by which the workings were ventilated had
been blown down, and the greatest havoc made
with the works generally, so that there is not the
slightest expectations of any of the miners who are
yet in the pit being rescued alive.. m
Twelve or thir-
teen dead bodies were picked up the main tram-
ways, and carried to the bottom of the shaft, but it
was found so urgent that the mouths of the pit
should be closed, that they were allowed to remain.
there. Several of the miners taken out alive are
dangerously injured.
The pit has only been in work two years, and
was considered one of the best-ventilated mines for
miles around. It is supposed that a fall in some
part of the works has led to the explosion.
It is expected that some days will elapse before
the fire will be sufficiently extinguished to permit
the pit to be entered.

CORN EXCHANGE.

There has been a slight increase in the arrivals of Eng.
lish wheat up to our market coastwise ; but the receipts
fresh up by laud carriage are limited, and in very middling
rcondition. The first samples 'command Monday's quota-
tions, with a moderate demand; bat inferior kinds are
heavy, and mostly offered on easier terms.
Oa" quarters of foreign wheat have come to hand
(yet the brow of samples was rather larger. Most kinds
moved off slowly. NeverthelesP, the quotations were well
supported.
We were rather scantily supplied with barley, in which
a steady business was doing at full prices.
The malt trade ruled dull at previous currencies.
In the value of oats, beans, peas, and flour, no change
took place, compared with Monday.
