EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.)
;Sittings at Nisi Prius at Westminster, before the LORD
CHIEF JUSTICE and a Coalmen Jury.)

SKINNER v. BRIGHTON AND S9UTII COAST RAILWAY.

This action was brought by the plaintiff to recover
compensation in damages for certain injuries which he
had sustained, in consequence of an occident on the
London and Brighton and South Coast Railway.
Mr. Watson and Mr. E. James appeared for the plain-
tiff, and the Attorney-General and Mr. Bramwell for the
defendant's.

Mr. WATSON, in opening the case, stated that the
plaintiff, who was an inspector of hawkers' licences,
was, on the 12th of July, 1847, a passenger by an ex-
cursion train, which had been engaged to proceed from
London to Brighton and back by the Printers' Pension
Society. On the return of the train to London it came
in violent collision with another train, near the New
Cross station, in consequence of which several passen-
gers were severely injured. The plaintiff was in a third-
class closed carriage, and, owing to the acci-
dent, was thrown with considerable force against
the side of the carriage, and had several
teeth knocked out of his mouth, and his body
so bruised as to prevent him pursuing his ordinary oc-
cupation for some time afterwards. The company had
retused to give any compensation to the plaintiff, and in
consequence of that refusal the present action had been
instituted in respect of the injuries so sustained.
For the defence it was contended that the railway
company was not liable, as the train had been engaged
by the Printers' Pension Society; also that the injuries
as proved by the evidence were of too slight a character
to require compensation, and the plaintiff himself had
appeared to have treated them very lightly, for he had
delayed bringing an action until the lapse of a year
after the accident happened.
The CHIEF BARON, in summing up, said he was of
opinion that the company were clearly liable, although
the train had been engaged for an excursion by a private
society, which issued its own tickets, because the train
was not under the management of that society, but was
entirely under the control and guidance of the servants
of the railway. The only question, therefore, for the
jury was the amount of damages, and, in coming to a
conclusion on that point, they would consider the na-
ture of the injuries deposed to by the different wit-
neises.

The jury found a verdict fur the plaintiff. Da-
mages 301.

MARLBRO'-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
UTTERING A FORGED NOTE.—Thomas Bainbridge,
who stated he was a porter employed at the Bolt-and-Tun,
Fleet-street, was charged before Mr. Bingham, with
uttering a forged 51. note.
Mr. Joseph Smith, greengrocer, No. 1, Swallow-
street, Piccadilly, stated that on Wednesday last the
prisoner came into his shop, end asked him to change a
51. note for Mr. Toms, a customer of his. Witness took
the note from the prisoner, and, as he had not change
sufficient, witness went to Mr. Jones, a publican in the
same street, and procured change for the note Wit-
ness took the change and delivered it to the prisoner.
The 54 note now produced is the same he received from
the prisoner. He identified it by seeing the name of
" Edwards, Ebony-street," on it. The note is now
marked " forged.' Mr. Jones returned the note to him
on Monday last, and, on meeting the prisoner last night,
he gave him in charge.
Mr. W. Toms, secretary to the Bond-street Club,
No. 16, Old Bond-street, said the prisoner was a porter
in the employ of the Club. Witness did not give the
prisoner the 5/. note produced to get changed, and he
was positive he never, to the best of his knowledge, saw
the note till the previous evening.
Mr. Jones, landlord of the Goat, in Swallow-street,
deposed that he received the note from the prisoner.
Witness went with it to the Bank, when it was returned
to him marked "forged."

The prisoner, in defence said Mr. Toms gave him the
note to get changed ou Wednesday last; Mr. Toms then
told him he had received it in payment of a bet.
Mr. Toms positively denied the truth of the prisoner's
statement, and

Mr. BItiGHAM remanded the prisoner for a week.

POST-OFFICE SUNDAY LABOUR

TO TIIE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—On Sunday last I was anxious to get two letters
from the post-office at Huddersfield, but owing to this
absurd regulation, I could not have them till Monday
morning, from which I was very muoh inconvenienced.
I hope it will not be many days,before this stupid
alteration is done away with; but should that not appear
likely to take place, I hope you and all the leading
papers will take the matter up, and recommend meet-
ings to be held in all the principal towns.
lam well aware that the Ministers thought it better
to let the small fanatical clique have their way for a
short time, knowing that a trial of their plan would do
more to condemn it than any arguments they (the
Ministers) could make use of ; but they ought to have
considered the great inconvenience they were putting
the community to.
I have a great respect for Lord John Russell and Co.;
their intentions are good, and their measures also, gene-
rally speaking. Lord John's conduct and speech touching
the Greek affair was noble in the extreme; but they
want tact, or they would not have suffered themselves to
have been " taken by,surprise," as they have been on
several occasions this session, while their own friends
were at dinner. Their friend Sir Robert, had he been
in office, would have kept a more sharp look-out on the
movements of his opponents. _

If you have :a corner to spare, perhaps you will let
this appear in your valuable paper.—Yours respectfully,
A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER,
Representing two houses in the city of London.
York, June 25, 1850.

SERIOUS RIOTING AT DUNFERMLINE,

THE MILITARY CALLED OUT.

For the last few days great excitement has been oc-
casioned in the Western District of Fife, by certain out-
rageous proceedings, which have assumed so alarming
an aspect as to induce the civil authorities to apply fur
the aid of the military from this quiirter.
On Saturday evening, about eleven o'clock, a band
of " navies," armed with bludgeons and knives,
made a savage and unprovoked attack on some of
the inhabitants of Dunfermline' several of whom
were severely injured—one, it is feared, fatally—from
a stab in the neck and fracture of the skull. The ut-
most excitement for some time prevailed; but ulti-
mately the navies were overpowered, and eleven of them
lodged in gaol.
Again, on Sunday evening, two men were attacked
and stabbed in the suburbs of Baldridgeburn.
The feelings of the townspeople bad now become
much exasperated, and a certain class resolved on
summary retaliation. Accordingly about ten o'clock
yesterday (Monday) morning, a mob of 400 or 500,
principally very young men and boys, paraded the
street, vowing to send all the Irish out of the town
and, proceeding to the Irishmen's lodgings, turned them
summarily out of doors, giving them time only to take
their clothes with them. Only one man, we believe,
resisted, having struck at one of the townsmen with an
axe and cut open his arm, for which he was severely
punished by a dreadful blow from a bludgeon, which
laid his scalp open.
The mob having proceeded 'to the works of the Stir-
ling and Dunfermline Railway,, about a dozen men were
marched thence, and the whole paraded through the
town for the purpose of being sent across the Forth at
Queensferry.
A gentleman who left Dunermline yesterday after-
noon, saw trom 40 to 50 at North Queensferry, where
the Sheriff and Fiscal had proceeded, and managed to
protect them from any ill-usage.
A company of the 13th Light Dragoons passed
through this city at seven o'clock last night to aid the
civic authorities, as it was apprehended that the popu-
lace would rise against the Irish weavers and colliers in
the district, of whom there are a good many. It was
also feared that about 300 navies who are employed on
the Cowrie section of the railway would march in to aid
their countrymen.
In the afternoon about 300 special constables were
sworn in, and at present matters wear a most threaten-
ing aspect.—Edinburgh Advertiser of Tuesday.

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—WO have another in-
stance of the sensitiveness with which any slight
change in either the cotton or the yarn market
is responded to by the other. Notwithstanding
the accounts of injury done to the growing crop by
unseasonable weather, and extensive inundations, so
as to render another year's short supply probable,
there was lately a drooping tendency in prices at
New York, in consequence of rather less favourable
tidings than before from Manchester. On Saturday the
Asia arrived in the 'Mersey, with advices of a recur-
recce of animation on the other side, attended with an
advance of * to I cent. on the receipt of intelligence that
some little improvement had subsequently taken place
in our market. This has at once revived us, in
some degree, from our latest relapse into a declining
state. The spinners of water twist, and of the
lower and medium counts of mule, whether for shipment
or for home consumption, have assumed a decidedly
firmer bearing; the buyers find, therefore, that they
have lost the small advantage in making a bargsiu,
which they possessed last week. For the yarns here re-
ferred to, rather more has been paid to-day than was
obtainable' a few days ago ; and those buyers have
proved to be in the right, who, as stated in our last,
were then taking-off the cheapest lots they could meet
with, from a persuasion that there was no likelihood
of a permanent decline. The sales cannot be said to
have exceeded a moderate amount; they would, how-
ever, have been greater but tor the prices generally
insisted on. The purchases of No. 40's to 70's on In-
dian account, may be stated as of fair extent, at fully as
high rates as those of last week; and we have still to
report well of the better qualities of 60's and upwards,
and of some numbers of doubled yarns. Altogether,
the market has shown a good deal of buoyaecy; and
the lightness of stocks taken in connexion with
other circumstances, leads many to expect a still
hardening tendency in prices. The effect of
this impulse iu goods is rather to add to the
previous rise in the value of long cloths, T-eloLlis,
domestics, and fustians. The stocks of these articles
were becoming light (of long cloths scarcely any are to
be found), and the home as well as the foreign demand
for them is good. But in printing cloths and " and4o
inch shirtings the only observable effect is to stop their
declining' tendency. Manufacturers are reverting ato
their quotations of a fortnight back, but the buyers re
little disposed to operate, and their purchases are of
small extent.
ROCHDALE, MONDAL—There is little change in the
flannel market to-day from that of last Monday, either
in demand or prices. There has been very little &l g
in the. wool market, principally from the dealete
holding .out for prices—the -maannfacturera .were
un-
willing to give.

MACCLESFIELD, TUESDA.T.—We have little worthy of
note to record as regards either the manufacturing or
throwing departments of the silk trade. A few g",."15
have been sold during the work ut prices barely, ir at
all remunerative; and the continuance, un the one hand, 01
advancirg prices for the raw material, and on the
other, the stationary, if not de,iresscd state of sll°
market fur goods, are compelling our manufacturers
to stop production as far as practicable, until a better
disposition as to prices shall be manifested. The
throwing mills and wtrehouses are now stopped fir I
few days, in coon quence I f Midsummer holidays ' • but
complaints are still general of the impossibility of ob-
taining adequa• e prices for thrown silks. In the raw
silk market a decided improvement hus taken place; and,
in many instances, slightly advanced rates have been
obtained, with much business doing.

HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—It is with great pleasure
we report an improvement in the state of our market
this week; there 1145 been an average business doing at
the warehouses; and although the wool trade has not
been much better than last week's, there has been more
doing in the Cloth Hall than has bi en known tor some
time past. During the week things hale been rather flat
HALIFAx, SATURDAY.— Ile attendance in our Piece
Hall has not been very large to thy, but there is a fair
business doing in worsted goods, at steady prices.
The inquiry for low lastingg, noticed in former reports,
continues, but there is not a large make of that arti-
cle just now. Yarn is in aetive demand, at ad-
vancing rates. The wool market exhibits more life, and
considerable quantities are changing hands. The growers
are asking of the staplers higher prices than they can
obtain from the spinners, and this gives a firmer tone to
the quotations.
LEEDS, TtrEsDAY.7—There is no change of importance
to notice in the cloth trade since our last report. The
markets have been well attended, and the manufacturers
still continue busy.

FRIGHTFUL OCCURRENCE AND LOSS OF. LIFE.'"'
Yesterday morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, as
accident of a most deplorable character, by which one pert
son was killed and several others severely injured, happen.
in one of the workshops formerly used by the Philanthrope
Society, St. George's-fields, London-road, Southwark. Sipco
the society have removed their establishment to Red-hill,
number of dwelling-houses have been erected on the ground
Mr. Hird, the builder, having retained one of the hilt
workshops, some of his men occupied the building for French
polishing the fixtures used in the new premises. At the tin's
before mentioned there were five or six men engaged at their
work in this building, when all of a sudden the iron coluintlef
which supported the beams and roof were seen by one
the men to bend forward; he immediately called to his fe,LA
low-workmen to make their escape, but before they cow'
do so the whole building fell with a loud crash. The 10;
ment, however, the dust had In some measured cleared
away some of the poor fellows could be seen in the midst od,
the ruins, who were so firmly imbedded in the rubbish, ae
between the heavy beams, as to be unable to extricate theme
selves. All hands employed on the works were sumrnaee
to get them out, and after the lapse of a quarter of an he„f74
the body of a man named Wilson, a French polisher, w:
extricated, but life was quite extinct; his body was imme
diately removed to Mr. Pyne's, the Prince Albert Taverp,
where it awaits an inquest. Another man named Snoift i"
carpenter, who had gone to the shop to get some finished
work out, was found under one of the heavy beams; it toos-t,
nearly half an hour to extricate him. The other men were go
out in less time, but they were all more or less injured.
Early
on EFFECTS OF PRIZE FIGHTING. --rif
on Monday morning a prize fight took place at Long Eatee:‘,-1,
village eight miles from Nottingham, between two 01,
named Richard Hall and James Brown. The brutal exhinl
tion was to have taken place in the meadows near the Will'
but the parties were surprised by the police, and were theiu;
fore obliged to retreat. The men fought for .an hour and„
quarter, at the end of which time Brown was completely The'
hauited, and lay upon the turf vomiting blood freely. -
0,,
backers and seconds had him immediately conveyed too
railway carriage, but before the train arrived at Nottiogilietw,
he died. Upon hearing the fate of his antagonist, Hall
mediately decamped, along with the seconds and others
gaged in the affair. As soon as the police were made of
quainted with the circumstance they commenced
:fe the
pursuit, and succeeded in capturing George Clay, one 0511.
seconds, and doubtless the others will soon be taken. eroL,
is only 17 years of age, and has been engaged in sev
fights. Brown was 22 years old.
