FALL OF A WALL.—Yesterday morning, about
eleven o'clock, a wall about forty feet in height, sud-
denly fell, at the corner of Showfield-street, in Chelsea-
road, with a tremendous crash, burying underneath the
ruins four individuals who were at the time at work
upon it. The unfortunate men, John Newman, aged 30,
a master bricklayer; William Lee, aged 45, journeyman;
James Lardner, aged 28, journeyman; and Arthur Ellis,
aged 16, an apprentice, were standing upon some scaf-
folding erected near the summit of the above wall, when
the latter, which had recently been run up, gave way
near its base, and the whole instantly fell. Assistance
Allying promptly arrived, the men were got from among
the rui,Nsh, and three of them were conveyed in a sadly
mutilated eta:_"to St. George's Hospital, whilst Newman,
who resides near ti; spot where the accident happened,
:,
and sustained a severe ii:jury of the skull and legs, was
conveyed home. Each of the ofortunate men lie in a
very precarious state. The cause of the occurrence is
stated to have been the wet weather, which prevented
the work from setting or drying.
PROPOSED RAILWAY STATION IN FARRINGDON-
STREET.—It is in contemplation to convert a portion of
Farringdon-street into a station, connecting that place
with the Eastern Counties Railway, by means of the
formation of a railway between Farringdon-street and
the Tottenham station. A company has already been
formed, and notice given of their intention to apply for
an Act of Parliament. The line proposed will he direct
from Farringdon-street, crossing the City Canal to Tot-
tenham, at which place it will join the Eastern Counties
(Cambridge line) Railway.
FALL OF A HOUSE.—Yesterday forenoon a new
building, situate at the corner of Draper's-place, in Old-
street, St. Luke's, fell and buried a number of workmen,
bricklayers, and labourers, in the ruins. The accident
is supposed to have been caused by the giving way of the
foundation of the house, which is near a sewer, now in
course of formation. Four of the men were taken out of
the ruins, and conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital,
but only two of them, named William Lutton and George
Hill, were admitted, and they were found not to be very
seriously injured. It was believed, however, that three
men, still missing, were under the ruins.
SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW.—The show will
commence on Wednesday, Dec. 11, and continue open
the three following days, at Baker-street. On account
of the increased number of visitors which has taken place
since the change of locality, the arrangements for their
accommodation will this year be considerably increased.
The space in the upper portion of the building appro-
priated to implements will also be extended, on account
of the magnitude of their cxhibition at the late show at
Southampton.
ACCIDENT AT NORTHLEACH PRISON.—On Wed-
nesday the new wing of this building, recently erected,
fell in with a tremendous crash, owing to the butments
giving way in consequence of the heavy fall of rain.
Very fortunately no person sustained any injury by the
accident, the workmen having left a few minutes before.

CORN-EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
Although the return for the present week shows a
good arrival of English Wheat, the supply of that article
was by no means large. For all descriptions, however,
the demand ruled heavy, at almost nominal prices. In
Foreign Wheat next to nothing was doing, yet holders
would not submit to lower figures. Barley and Malt
were a mere drug ; yet we can notice no alteration in the
currencies. Oats, Beans, and Peas, as on Monday, with
exceedingly little doing.

SMITHFIELD.
The supply of beasts was only moderate, yet the beet
trade was, on the whole, inactive, at about Monday's
quotations. We had on sale 54 beasts, in fair average
condition, from Rotterdam, as also fifty horned and
polled Scots from Dundee. The number of sheep being
very limited, the mutton trade was firm, and previous
rates were readily supported. For prime small calves
we had a steady inquiry, at, in some instances, a trifle
more money. Other qualities were a dull sale. The
pork trade ruled dull, yet prices remained about sta-
tionary. Milch Cows sold at from 16/ to 191 each.
