SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 17th have arrived.
It was said that the new Csbinet had resolved to
display indulgence towards the press, and not to
seize journals except for ettacks on the sujects of
religion orinorality or for exciting disturb:tne s or for
insulting public functionaries ; it was even supposed
that it intended to modify the law on the pr ss in a
lib ral spirit. The newspapers were so delighted
at this news that the offices of the Iberia, the (
dente, the Astado, the Discusi,on, and of alnookit all
the other p,litical journals were illuminated ; but
at the requel of the civil governor, who thought
the demonstration objectionable, the illuminations
were extinguished. All the retiring Ministers, in
grand uniform had waited on the Queen to
take leave of her Nlajesty ; and the Queen
treated them with kindness. On the formation
of the Mitii,try, the amha-sailors at London
and Paris were to be changed. Permission had
been sent by telegraph to Count de Reuss
(Prim) and M. Guell y Rente to return to Sp:in.
It was considered certain that M. Bustillos would
be the new Minister of Marine. It was reported
that some frfends of the retired Ministers had at-
t erupted to persuade the reg ments of the garrison
to send deputations without arms to the Queen,
praying her not to dismiss the albino', but 'hat the
execution of the plan had been prevented by the
intervention of the Captain-General of Madrid.
It was said that a brother of the new President
of the Council would be appointed Captain-Gene-
ral of Cuba. The last reg,rt about Gene al Nar-
vaez was that he meant to re sire to France.

Latnartine, waose fortune, the pablic has been
aware, was greatly impaired by a series of bad years,
and his indulgence to poor tenants, has this year had a
magnificent crop of wine upon his Macon estate. It is
said that be has sold 3.000 casks at 80f. each, and has
consequently realised a sum of 240.0004
DEATH OW A WATERLOO VETERAN.-SINGULAR CIR-
OUMSTANOE.-The retain of the registrar of births and
deaths for Oldham-above-Town for the past week pre-
.esc ed to the board of guardians at its meeting n Wed-
nesday, contained the register of the death of a man,
named Barratt, residing near &after. He was present
at the battle of Waterl,o, where he received a shot in
the left lung. He recovered from the wound, bu: the
ball was never extracted, and after his death Mr. Leach,
surzon. Cowlishaw, opened the body and found the lvtli
embedded in the Jung, where it has remained for a period
of 42 years —Manchester Guardain.
GROWL'S COFFEE Rooms.--The well-known Pita-
bl:shm: nt of Mr. Groom, the confectioner, in Fleet-
wreet, near the Temple, which, with its narrow froa age
and overhanging upper stories, used to form one of the
quaintest relics of old L'ondon street architecture it at
la.,t re-opened, after having been entirely rebuilt and

moierniied ; no Imager as ;c9nfectioaer'eshop,_but as

a coffee-house—the Only trfr-shment rooms in. Lon on
where tea, coffee, and chocolate alone are served. Toe
ground and first fib ire now form two spacious coffee-
rooms, planned and fitted with the utmost attention to
comfort. On the second floor an elegant coffee-room
and withdrawing room are reserved for the use of laiie4.
The judicious taste and the liberal outlay which have
presi.;ed over the rebuilding and fitting up of these
rooms oannot fail to be appreciated by Mr. Groom's
customers, many of whom, unable to account for the
long-continued close of his premises at the Temple
Gate, had begun to despair of seeing his house opened
again.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE GIITTA PERCHA WORKS,

SIIITHFIELD. —Yesterday Mr. William Payne, the
coroeer, held an inquest at St. Bartholomew's Hospital,
on the body of Henry Alfred Bradford, a young man,
24 years of age, who came to his death under the follow-
ing c;rcumsteeees. From the evidence that was given
ey the different wituessee it apo. ared that the dece!sed
was employed at the Gutta Percha Works, in West-
street, Smithfield, and it was his duty to attend to the
:anks, which are heated by steam, for the purpose of dis-
eolving the Gutta pe,cha, in its process of manufacture
into different articles. Oil Monday last, perceiving
that one of the tanks was boiling too rapidly, he went
in front of it, f;r the purpose of turning off the steale,
but instead of doing so be inad vei teioly Turned it, full en,
ceusing, the content, of the tank to boil more repid/y,
acid a quantity of steam came over him, scalding him in
a w et ehockieg manna r. As-istance was soon at feted,
and without delay he was removed to St. Bartholomew's
Hospital, where he was attended by Mr. Lee, the house
surgeon, but he never rallied, and died about eight
o'clock the same evening, from the effects of the severe
ecal ling. The Jury returned a verdict of "Accidental
death," expressing a hopo that for the future men slimed
go to the back, instead of the front of the tauke, to
reetila'e their.
SUDDEN DEATH OP A LIVERPOOL MERCHANT.—We
exceedingly regret to announce the death of Mr. Chas.
Cotesworth, which took place yesterday under most
painful circumstances. We learn that the deceased
gentleman left his home yesterday morning in his usual
health. He was transacting some business in his private
office in Tower-buildings) about 1 o'clock when some of
the clerks in the outer office observed him'etaeger, and
immediately ran to his aasistance, being enabled to save
him before he fell to the ground. Medical assicance
was a• once sent for, and en Dr. Petre arriving it was
found that the unfortunate gentleman was seized with
a fit of apoplexy. Dr. Chalmers, Mr. Cotesworth'm
family adviser, and Dr P. Ramsey were also celled
in, and rendered all the relief in their power ;
but after lingering in a state of almost unconscieuences
for nearly two hours Mr. Cetesworth expired. The ne-
cessity of a coroner's inquest has been otivia,ted by a cer-
tificate from the medical g,ntleman, stating that death
was the result of apoplexy. Mr. Cotesworth was 65
years of age ; he was one of the leading shipeweers of
this port, and he held a high position in connection with
various mercantile associations. He was the principal
of the firm long kno en under the title of Messrs Cotes-
worth, Wynne, and Lyne, who are extensively enge,;ed
in the South American trade, and also owners of screw
steamers trading between Liverpool and Portugal.

Cotesworth was a Conservative in politics, and took l‘r

Iron Works, who are the contractors for this portion

ticable the fearful dangers consequent on a panic
arieing in a crowded h use will be avoided. As
a provision agaiue.t this, there will be four public
staircases before the curtain, the steps and landings of
which will be constructed of stone, roofed over with
brick arches. One highly important arrangement also
in these staircases is, that there will be no "winders,"
and " well-holes" are dispensed with, the space usually
occupied by the latter being built up, in a great measure
solid, as is the caws in the La Scala, at Milan, and other
theatres in Italy. This arrangement allows of lighting

LITERATURE.

'Wayside Gatherings. By E. M. T. Richardson,

- Brothers.
The charm of this little volume is its unaffected
simplicity. Every poem is the natural outpouring
of the writer's heart, and as such it steals its way
irresistibly to the heart of the reader. There is no
striving after effect, no elaborate embellishment or
artificial conceit to be met with here, but an abun-
dant store of kindly thoughts and bright aspira-
tions, genial sympathies and gentle admonition&
This bouquet, "gathered" by the "wayside' of the
great field of Nature, consists for the most part of
homely flowers ; but, if modest in hue, such are the
sweetest in perfume, and these have been culled by
one fully alive to their hidden beauties—one ready
to gather sermons from stones, and quick to recog-
nise good in everytuiug. Among the sweetest
blossoms in the collection aro those gathered in the
churchyard, and hung as graceful wreaths of immor.
tales over some beloved tomb. Of this number are
several dedicated to the memory of a little girl, the
only child of her mother—a widow. These little
poems, " The Three Curls," " The Portrait," and
others, will be read with lively sentiments of even'
tion by many. " Weary not in Well-doing" is an
earnest and heart-stirring appeal. "Teach him to
pray," addressed to a young mother, is perhaps ate
ef the best poems in the volume. The memorial
of home, " Our Birthday Feast," " Our Household
Prayer," "The Memory of our Mother," "
Father's Knee," to., evidence the affectionate heel"
of the writer, and are full of interest. We me
commend this little work particularly to the young.
They will derive both pleasure and profit from ,its
pages ; and many a kit.dly emotion and gratetw
memory will, we doubt nor, be associated with thee.

MONEY MARKET

A ND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, Two o'CLocK.
The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
flatly with a downward tendency in prices. The
sales amounted to 2,000 bales. The Railway Share
Market exhibited rather more firmness, and prices
have slightly improved.
The transactions in Foreign and Colonial produce
this week have been curbed by the general disincli-
nation to enter into extensive engagements while
the money-market is so unsettled. As was anti-
cipated, the advance of the minimum to 8 per cant.
ut once induced a cautious feeling ; pur-
chases were confined to immediate wants, the
public sales were less numerous, and prices
tended downwards. In sugar the operations have
been limited, and most descriptions are cheaper,
the trade having bought sparingly. Coffee .has de-
clined Is. to 2s. per cwt., and the market for this
article is also dull. Rice has further receded. The
public sales of tea have passed off without anima-
tion, and at rather easier prices, and in rum there
is no material alteration. Cochineal has declined
7d. pgr lb. ; indigo, since the quarterly sales, has
become flat, and cotton is lower. Tallow is rather
firmer.

It was resolved at a meeting held yesterday to
wind-up the London, Manchester, and Foreign
Warehouse Co., and it is believed that 2/. per share
will be returned to the shareholders.

A call of 51. per share has been made by the
Scinde Railway Company. Owing to the prepay-
ment, however, there only remains about 5,0001.
to be collected in accordance with this subscription.
About 16,0001. in sovereigns was taken from the
Bank yesterday for America, and it is stated that
shipments on a large scale are likely to be made to
the continent for silver, as the recent advance in

terms for bills drawn upon the three Presi-
dencies will stimulate the efflux thither. It
vas stated, a few days eince, that the adminis-
tration of the Bank of France was losing gold,
but the accounts received to-day allege that
a considerable amount had returned to them, and
there was no immediate prospect of supplies being
sought in this country. The next steamer for
India will probably take out an important sum,
and 300,000 f. has already been prepared for
ramittance by that opportunity.
An adjourned meeting of the British Steam
Fisheries Company has just been held, Mr. Dykes
in the chair, for the confirmation of the resolution
passed on the 21st of September last for dissolving
the company, which was agreed to accordingly.
In Lombard-street and at the Bank of Eng-
land there is still a comparatively quiet demand for
money, and although it is expected that the
Bank of England return to be pubished this even-
ng will exhibit some remarkable changes, showing
Is considerable strain upon the resources of the
establishment, there is a more hopeful feeling with
regard to the future. The fact that so small an '
amount has been taken to America is con-
sidered as a proof that the restrictions already
adopted will prevent the efflux which was
at first anticipated, it is nevertheless imagined that
a considerable amount will be conveyed to private
hands. Many passengers now going to America
will take out large sums of money, since, by saving
the insurance, &a., they may be enabled to obtain
highly remunerative profits from their speculations.
A decline of per cent. took place in the English
Stock Market to-day, but business is dull, and the
movement was produced by a few stiles and the dis-
continuance of money purchases. The market is bet-
ter supplied with stock, and the tendency was tempo-
rarily unfavourable. Consols for money have receded
88 f, and for account 88/ The market is now
stronger, aid the quotations are 88, and 88; 89
respectively. The New Three per Cents. have
been dealt in at 88 to 88k, and the Reduced 871 to
88. Bank Stock has been 212 to 213, and is
marked as low as 207. Exchequer Bills are
265. to 10e. discount, and the Bonds are 971 I.
There is again a very quiet market for Foreign
Securities. Turkish 6 per Cents. have been firm
.87i to 88, end they are now called 871 88. The 4
per Cent. Guaranteed are 97i ; Dutch 4 per Cents.
974 ; and Peruvian 4t per Cents. 77. Mexican
Stock is dull at 191.
The following are the nominal prices of Foreign
Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 5 6 ; Mexi-
can, 19 19i ; Peruvian 4i per Cents., 75 77 ;
ditto 3 per Cents., 52 54 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents.,
