THE LATE BOILER EXH,OSION
AT BLACKW ALL.

ADJOURNED INQUEST -UPON THE BODIES
1 OF RICHARD GRIMES, G. CHAPMAM, T.
- WRIGHT, AND M. SMITH.—(THIS DAY.)
• At ten o'clock this morning Mr. Baker, the Coroner for
East Middlesex, and the jury empannelled imi this case, re-
sumed the examination into the circumstances of the acci-
dent, in the Town-hall, Poplar. As before, the attendance
was very numerous. Mr. Ballantine again attended for Mr.
Joseph Samuda, and the principal person implicated in the
unfortunate occurrence, namely, the foreman Lowe, was able
to be in attendance.
The names of the jurymen having been called over,
-Mr. Ballantine begged to state, on the part of Mr. Samuda,
that the person Lowe had borne a very first-rate character as
a careful, attentive man, up to the time of this accident. Mr.
Samuda also requested, as he himself had no evidence to
give, and as his attendance was commanded at the House of
Commons, to be allowed to depart.
The CORONER thought that there could be no abjection
to the granting of his request.
Several of the jurymen expressed their dissatisfaction that
some of the workmen in Mr. Samuda's employment had re-
fined to give up articles, as the lever, &c., connected with the
lamentable accident. Some of those persons who were
present repudiated any intention of withholding any infor-
mation. Mr. Samuda also stated that be had given positive
orders that every assistance should be rendered to the jurors,
and if any omission had occurred, he should at once order
it to be rectified.
The CORONER thought such discussion was irregular, and
the conversation dropped. .
The evidence taken on the previous occasions was then
read over for the purpose of correction or addition; but ex-
cepting some verbal al terationsnoth ing was added or amended:
• Mr. Lowe was asked if he would question the witness
Cockayne; but first the piece of wood. supposed to be that
so frequently alluded to in the course of the previous exami-
nations, was produced. The witness Cockayne said it was
• not the piece which had been used at the boiler. The wit-
ness Burnand said it was. Mr. Lowe denied that it was the
piece, and the altercation was growing warm when the Co-
. toner interrupted it, by continuing to read the evidence given
by the second witness Burnand. The first witness was in
consequence unquestioned.
• Mr. Lowe was asked if he would question this witness?
, The witness was examined as to previous quarrels between
them, the object of the question being to show that the wit-
! ness was prejudiced against the questioner.
The scientific statement made by Mr. Farey, the eminent
engineer of Guilford-street, was then read over, as was that
made by Mr. Bell. At the conclusion of the reading
Joseph Turner was called—l live in Bermondsey, and am a
' labourer. I have been in the employ of Mr. Samuda for a
short time before the accident occurred by explosion. I was
employed upon this boiler for about three weeks before. I
do not know where it came from, or what was given for it.
I should think it worth about 30/. The plates of the boiler
were such as -were commonly used in works of that kind,
and quite sufficient to resist ordinary pressure. Tile
workmanship was very good. The rivets were strong,
' and they did not give way on the explosion The
plates themselves were torn and burst. In some places the
thickest part of the iron had given way. I cannot
form any sound opinion upon the cause of the explosion.
I was engaged part of the time in the counting of the two
engines, and I think that the engine worked too slow, owing
to the length of the pipe from the boiler to the cylinder.
The length was some thirty or forty feet. The cold weather
also condensed the water in the steam pipes. There was a
cock about half-way between the engine and the boiler, to
carry off the condensed water, but it did not do it effectually-.
I observed that when the cock was turned water flowed from
it in small quantities, and that steam also escaped from it.
An increased power of steam would not occasion under such
circumstances an increased speed of the engine. I was near
the boiler after breakfast on the morning of the acci-
dent, and I noticed nothing unusual. It appeared to be
going on very well. I did see a piece of wood in an inclined
direction against the boiler. I saw it there four or five
minutes before the explosion. The piece of wood was in •
tended to keep the handle of the lever up, so as to prevent
the escape of steam by the safey-valve. There was a nail
in the piece of wood, and the handle of the lever pressed
against it. Ido not know who placed it there, and I saw no
one meddling with it at any time.
By ajuror—The nail was a small one, about five inches long.
By the CORONER—It was firmly driven in. I went with a
can to the syphon, in order to get a little hot water to thaw
the ice which was in the pipe attached to the boiler. Shortly
after I left the explosion took place. The piece of wood was
then in the •isosition I have already described. As I was
leaving Mr. Lowe came towards the boiler, so that he could
have seen toe wood and the nail as well as me. I did not hear
him say anything, nor observe him do anything to it. I saw no
other person go near from the period of my leaving to the
time of the explosion. I must have seen any one if they
had. I know the witness Cockayne, and I did not see him
near it. I did see Burnand there some time before. I made
no observation to Mr. Lowe regarding the wood or the nail.
I did not see Jonathan Smith (one of the deceased persons)
near at hand. Myopinion was that the piece of wood was in-
tended to push the safety-valve open, so as to blow the
steam off.
The CORONER—Why. you described the object of the
stick very differently just now. Would it prevent the ha:idle
going up or down ? Witness—lt would prevent its c:oming
down.
By the CORONER—I do not know whether the valve
opened by the lever being drawn up or down. I have not
heard since how it was. There was no room for play between
the nail and the handle, as the one rested upon the other.
The handle could not in consequence move downwards to
admit of the escape of steam.
By the CORONER—I was at the time of the explosion about
fifteen feet from the boiler, and in sight of it. I did not see
the man thrown into the air. -The first person I saw was
Mr. Lowe lying near the boiler. He was injured, but I don't
know where. He was lying in front of the boiler. 1 saw two
of the deceased men, Thos. Wright and another, removed from
tinder it quite dead. I saw also Grimes, who was blown to the
other side of Bow-creels. When he was brought back
Ihe was not alive. Their death was caused by the
explosion. The explosion was not so loud, as powerful in its
effects. I saw two pieces of the upper shelves of the boiler,
one about 5001bs. weight, near the Crown public-house,
about three hundred yards from the scene of the explosion ;
the other 600 or 700 cwt. was found, near the gate of the
Plate-glass Works. That might be about 120 feet off.

tested before. Ttie steam had been brought up on Monday,
but I cannot ',ell to what extent. I cannot say what weight
was on the lever, or the extent of proving. Mr. Lowe, when
he came to the front of the boiler on the day of the accident,
looked at the guage- glass, but I did not see him handle it.
1 noticed the water in the boiler myself, and it was above
the glass. If it is below the glass you cannot see it. There
might be ten inches of water in the boiler.
The CORONER—I do not think that, as the case stands,
them was anydeficiency of water. Mr. Farey's evidence
SCAMS to say that.
Mr. Lowe had no question to ask the witness.
John Barnes, of Wellington-street, Strand, was next
called—l am a civil engineer and I have examined the
boiler which had exploded. My attention was particularly
directed as to the cause of the explosion. I examined in the
first instance if the boiler had been over-heated, so that gas
might be produced, but found that that hypothesis was ut-
terly untenable, inasmuch as the upper row of tubes being
made of brass, were incapable of eliciting heat in suflicient
quantity to decompose water, and they presented no signs
whatever of gas having been formed. It was, therefore,
evident that the boiler had been burst from an overcharge of
steam. I conceive that every square inch of the boiler was
subjected to a pressure of 1001bs.
By the CORONER—I was previously acquainted with the
same boiler on board the Waterman No. 11, and knew that
it was made to sustain a pressure of 181 b. to the square inch,
for which pressure it was sufficiently strong. The plates
were 3-Bths of an inch, and the steam-chest was 5-16ths.
They were of wrought-iron. I consider a pressure of 451bs.
a very improper pressure, because as the general form of the
boiler was cylindrical, which is the strongest form,
and since the pressure is uniform throughout, and the
resistance of the plates is also uniform, there is no weak point
in a boiler of acylindrical form, but in this case a considerable
portion of the top of the boiler had been cut away from its
original formation, to allow the addition of a steam bok,
whereby the pressure on that part had nothing whatever to
resist it. You will see it (exhibiting the plan) here, and it
must have been apparent to any one connected with the
boiler.. The fault might have been remedied by a stay across
it of equal strength with the corresponding parts which had
been cut away. This, however, had not been done, and from
that defect the boiler would yield with less pressure than it
would have otherwise stood.
By the CORONER—Mr. Lowe must have seen the weakness
of the boiler. I examined the safety valve, and think in
many respects the boiler was injudiciously constructed. The
principal point I complain of is the complexity of the lever,
which tended materially to increase the chances of acci-
dents. But more particularly I complain that the lever for
lifting the valve is not constructed as is usual in London, as
it allows the valve being lifted, but is so constructed that no
action of the lever can hold it down. The valve is self-
acting as far as the escape of steam is concerned, but no
action upon it can keep it down. lam of opinion, how-
ever, that if the valve had had fair play the accident
would not have happened; and I therefore think
that it must have been fastened down. The effect
of the piece of wood with the nail in it would be
to fasten down the valve. I can account for the partial
blowing off of steam, by supposing that the valve was par-
tially open, but not so much so as to prevent explosion. I
have made a calculation as to what the rate of rising must
have been. From an examination of the fires, the capacity
of the boiler, and the rate at which the steam would be gene-
rated, I find that if no escape whatever were allowed, the
pressure of steam would increase about 1001bs. to the
square inch in less than a minute. lii a smaller temperature
it would increase more slowly. The valves constructed by
all the fins-rate engine- makers are made so that the steam
itself can open the valve, and no weight can be placed upon
it by the engine-man, for to reach it he must first enter the
boiler—a feat inigossible, from the steam itself. I have heard
one of the witnesses say that the valves on board some of the
steam-boats may be loaded, but I have never seen that on
the Thames. Where possible, I consider it highly dangerous
to place anything on the lever, so as to stop it. I should
consider it showed a great want of caution to do so, and that
it would be likely to lead to ad occurrence like the present.
(The inquiry was proceeding when our report left.)

MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

The past week's arrivals of English Wheat and Barley
have been only moderate ; those of Malt and Scotch Oats on
the increase ; but the receipts of all other kinds of Grain have
been only limited. Fresh up we received a fair supply of
Wheat coastwise from Essex and Kent ; but, from Lin-
colnshire and Cambridgeshire, very little came to
hand. The show of samples was less than for some
time past, owing to which, and the full average
attendance of millers and others, rather an active de-
mand was experienced for selected qualities, and, in some
few instances, a trifle more money was obtained for
such.. In all other kinds, a fair amount of business was
transacted, but no improvement was noticed in the
currencies, and a total clearance was not effected.
The general condition of the samples was good.
The show of Foreign Wheat was by no means large. holders
were again firm, and obtained full currencies in every trans-
action. Bonded Corn was, however, very dull, and almost
nominal in value. The supply of English and Foreign Barley
was not large, but fully adequate to meet. the wants of the
buyers. Fine Malting parcels were quite as dear. In
other kinds very little was doing at late rates.
We had rather an extensive supply of Malt on
offer. Chevalier parcels met a fair demand, at prices
about equal to those paid on this day se'nnight ; but all
other kinds were a mere drug, arid the terms lower. Of

Oats, especially Scotch, we had a fair quantity offering.
The Oat trade was dull, and prices were with difficulty sup
ported. Beans, Peas, and Flour were in moderate supply,
and sluggish request, at late rates. In Seeds, very little was
doing.

SMITHFIELD.
Notwithstanding the severity of the weather, the importa-
tions of live stock from abroad, since this day se'nnight, have
been on a somewhat extensive scale, they having amounted
to 100 Oxen and Cows, together with 80 Sheep,
all from Holland. Although there were . some
well made -up animals amongst them, by far the
largest portion were of unusually inferior quality ; in-
deed, we scarcely ever recollect to have witnessed a worse
collection of Dutch stock, and we doubt whether many of
the Oxen were fit for consumption, not a few of
them being, -in our opinion, affected vtith the pre-
vailing epidemic. The Beasts were disposed of at
from 8/ lOs to 191; the Sheep, 29s to 37s per head.
From our own grazing counties the arrivals of Beasts fresh
up to-day were seasonably extensive. As to quality there
was, compared with that noticed on this day se'nnight, a
slight improvement, yet it was by no means first-rate.- The
attendance of buyers was numerous, yet, owing to the dead
markets being heavily supplied with last week's
arrivals, the Beef trade was in a very sluggish
state. The primest Scots and homebreds mostly
found purchasers at last week's quotations, or from 3s 10d to
4s per 81bs., but the value of all other breeds was with diffi-
culty supported ; in fact, in some instances towards the close
of the market, a slight abatement was submitted to by the
salesmen for such qualities, without effecting a clearance.
The Bullock droves from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam-
bridgeshire, comprised 1,800 Scots and homebred.% from
the 'Northern districts, 300 short horns, from the
Western and Midland counties ; 500 Devons, Herefords,
Bunts, &c., from other parts of England; 400 of various
breeds; and from Scotland, 110 horned and polled Scots.
The numbers of Sheep were rather limited ; hence the Mutton
trade was somewhat active, at an improvement in the cur-
rencies obtained on Monday last .of 2d per 81bs ; the best old
Downs readily producing 4s 6d per 81bs. Generally speaking,
this stock came to hand in fair condition. From the Isle of
Wight 40.I.ambs were received per railway; but the supply
from other parts was rather limited. The Lamb trade was
inactive, and we cannot give prices with any degree of ac-
curacy. Upwards of 4,000 of the Sheep were out of their wool.
With calves we were scantily supplied ; yet the Veal trade
was inactive, at previous figures. Prime small Porkers sold
steadily ; other kinds of Pigs slowly, at last week's quota-
tions.

plies of London-killed Meat having been but moderate, a de-

(THIS DAY.)

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The Sixaxisu took the Chair at Twelve o'clock.
RAILWAY CLAUSES CONSOLIDATION BILL.
On the motion of Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET, the
amended report of the Railway Clauses Consolidation Bill
was brought up.
On the motion being put for its being received,
Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET said, that he
wished to attach a clause to this Bill, which he
thought was necessary in order to render the Bill available,
for all parts of the United Kingdom. The object of the clause
was to oblige all Railway Companies in Ireland to make a
deposit of 6d. in the pound, on the estimated cost, with the
Accountant-General of the Court of Chancery in Ireland.
He wished to extend the provision of the 2d Victoria, which
provided fur the expenses of the suits in Chancery to Ireland.
The report was then brought up, and the clause was read
a firss time.: On its being put a second time,
Mr. HAWES wished to inquire whether any regulation
specifically similar to this had been introduced into the
English railway Acts ?
Lord G. SOMERSET replied that there had not been any
such clause, and that this was entirely new.
Mr. HAWES asked why, if these provisions were necessary,
they were not applied to English Acts ?
Mr. I'. B. SMITH said that the object of this clause was,
not to place Irish railways in any worse position than similar
projects in England, but to rectify a mischief arising out of
the effects of the standing orders of the Court of Chancery in
Ireland. By the standing orders of that Court it was ordered
that there should be an instalment paid into the hands of the
usher of that Court, which constituted what is called the
"Suitors' Fund." Great inconvenience has been experienced
by making the usher the depositor of this money, and in
1783 aa Act was passed for transferring this "Suitors'
Fund" from the hands of the usher to those of the Account-
tant-General of the Court of Chancery. reserving a fee for
the usher of the Court. He thought this was necessary, and
it would place the railway companies in Ireland in no worse
position than that of similar companies in England.
The House then went into Committee on the amended re-
port, and on the 17th clause, which gins power to the
Board of Admiralty to pull down the works of railway com-
panies which in V•eir opinion obstructed or in any way
affected the navigation or defence of any river on the coast,
or creek, or other arm of the sea, being put,
Mr. HAWES said that he believed that the Hon. Member
for Plymouth (Mr. Gill) had had some communication with
the Hon. Gentlemen the Secretary to •the Admiralty relative
to the introduction of some words, which would modify the
power of the Admiralty to afect works constructed
below high water mark. He thought the House
were not aware of the enormous power which this
clause gave to the Admiralty, or they would look
a little more carefully into it. By this clause, after a rail-
way company had gone through the Committee and the
House, by the simple word of the Admiralty Engineer the
whole of their plans might be set aside, or even destro3 ed, if
it should happen that they had been constructed before the
veto was uttered. Now he thought that the better plan would
he for an insertion in the standing orders to require that any
company having works to construct that would be liable to
the jurisdiction of the Lords of the Admiralty, that there
should be plans deposited with the Admiralty concurrently
with those deposited with the Committee of Standing Orders
of the House of Commons, and that if the Admiralty had
anything to object to to come and make the objection before
the Committee.
Mr. FITZROY said that, from a communication which he
had had with Mr. Sidney. Herbert, he believed that the words
proposed to be introduced by the Hon. Member for Ply-
mouth did not meet with the concurrence of the Secretary
of the Admiralty, and that the plan proposed by the Hon.
Member for Lambeth was incompatible with the usages of
the House, as it would interfere, he conceived, with the
Queen's prerogative.
Mr. lIAIVES objected to the unqualified powers which
the clause gave to the Board of Admiralty, and suggested
that the Board of Admiralty, when they had cause to com-
plain of railway obstructions to navigable rivers, should
go before the Parliamentary Committee of Merits,
and there contest the points with the railway com-
pany. This would give both parties an opportunity
of being heart:, and remove all objection to the power at
present possessed by the. Board of Admiralty. He thought
that some alteration might be made in the standing orders of
the House to meet his views. The Hon. Member moved an
amendment accordingly.
Lord AIARSHAM could see no objection to the clause. He
believed the Board of Admiralty exercised the authority alike
to the interest of the railway and the convenience of the public.
He knew from personal knowledge that the Board never
withheld its sanction from railway projects which did not ab-
solutely interfere with, or obstruct the traffic, in navigable
rivers. In the late case of the Rossendale Railway, which
crossed a navigable river, the Board of Admiralty were ap-
plied to for power to form a bridge or viaduct, and the Board
seeing that the line was for the convenience of the public
at large readily granted rt. He believed they acted upon the
same in every case that came before them.
Sir W. CLAY said they bad heard a good deal of mur-
muring against the authority of the Board of Trade, and he
thought the Board of Admiralty would become equally un-
popular if the clause were agreed to. The clause left these
disputed points to a partial tribunal, but the Hon.
Member for Lambeth would carry them before an impartial
Committee, where the interest of both parties would meet
with every attention.
Sir G. CLERK reminded the House that in the course
of last session of Parliament the subject of the encroach-
ments of railways on navigable rivers was brought under
the consideration of the Government by the Hon. Member
for Montrose, who pointed out that the 46th of George 111.
duly required that notice should be given to the Secretary of
the Admiralty when embankments or quays were about to
be made in navigable rivers. The Honourable Member
thought that this was insufficient to protect the interests of
the public, and thought that much greater powers should be
given to the Admiralty. His Right Hon. Friend the First,
Lord of the Treasury, on that occasion admitted that the sub-
ject was one of great importance, and consented to the
appointment of a commission to inquire into the subject,
and to ascerlrain if it was necessary that additional powers
should be given to the Admiralty. The Committee reported
that, notwithstanding the required notices, very inconvenient
encroachments and obstructions had been made to our na-
vigable rivers, and it had therefore been thought necessary
to introduce this clause into the present measure. But he
could hardly understand how Hon. Members could object
to its provisions, for when railway companies proposed to inter-
fere with private property, Parliament never sanctioned it
without the consent of the owner. Upon the same principle,
the noose should withhold its sanction to railway obstruc-
tions on navigable rivers, until the consent of the Board
of Admiralty had been expressly and formally obained. He
therefore could not support the amendment of the Hon.
Member for Lambeth.
After a few words from Sir D. NORREYS, who supported
the clause in its original form,
The House divided, when there appeared—
. For the amendment
Against it
Majority against it
On our return to the gallery,
Sir W. CLAY was objecting to the 17th clause, which relates
to the powers' of a railway company dealing with the mains
of gas or water companies. The Honourable Member
thought the clause was not sufficiently stringent, and
related one or two instances where great public
inconveniences had arisen from the indiscriminate
powers given to railway companies. In the case of the West
London, which connected the line of the London and Bir-
mingham Company with that of the Great Western, it would
be recollected that a short tifire ago the western part of the
metropolis was greatly incommoded from the circumstance
of the line crossing three mains of the Kensington
gas-works and water-works. For a time Pall-mall,
Tottenham-court-road, and the principal portions of the
west-end were left • totally without a supply of water, either
for domestic purposes, or cases of emergency, as fires, Om
It was to prevent the recurrence of ' suefi an inconve-
nience that lie wished to make the clause more stringent.
He was not prepared then to state the precise terms
of the amendment ; but as there were deputations who were
experienced in the matter waiting outside, he would suggest
that it should be left to them to frame an amendment, and
let the clause be postponed till the third reading.
Mr. KEMBLE and Mr. HAWES admitted the import-
ance of the suggestion, and asked the Noble Lord to give it
every consideration.
Lord G. SOMERSET certainly felt that the clause was;
not sufficiently stringent to g'iard the rights of water and
gas-works, and lie had no objection to agree to an amend.
meet which had been suggested on a former occasion by the
Hon. Member for Maidstone. This amendment would afford
ample protection to gas and water-works, he hoped it would
receive the sanction of the House.

After a few words from Mr. DODD, who consented to
postpone his amendment till the third reading of the Bill,
Lord G. SOMERSET said he should take the third read-
ing to-morrow, at twelve o'clock.
Col. SIBTHIIRP objected to the hour. The measure was
of great public importance, and it was necessary that the final
reading should be postponed to such an hour when it would
be likely to- have a full attendance of Hon. Members. Clause
27 gave powers to railway companies that were not only
monstrous, but un -English, and he should divide the House
upon it. He moved an amendment. in effect restricting
railway companies from going beyond 100 yards on the land
adjacent to the line that might be required for temporary pur-
poses. In clause 27 the number of yards was restricted to 500.
He would therefore propose that the words 500 yards should
be altered to 200, but the motion fell to the ground for want
of a seconder.

On the motion of Lord G. SOMERSET, that clause 31, as
amended, stand part of the Bill,
Mr. HAWES said that this clause was so vague
and indefinite that he could not at all consent to its
insertion. The power given to the justices of the
pease for the adjudication of difficult points was far
too large, and he should move the omission of
the clause, or if that were objected to, as he believed that the
Elouse of Lords had adjourned for the holidays, and the
Noble Lord (Lord G. Somerset) was not now pressed for
time, as it would now be impossible to got the Bill into
the Upper House till after the recast, he would wish the
clause to be postponed.
Lord G. SOMERSET explained that the House of Lords
had only adjourned till to. morrow, and then it was believed
they would adjourn till after Easter, and he was desirous of
getting the Bill read a first time before the recess.
Mr. HAWES said that then he should move for the
omission of the clause.

Sir DENHAM NORREYS said that he would second
the motion, for the term property or enjoyment of property
was so vague that it was impossible for any right decision to
be come to by parties.
The SPEAKER explained that the clause might be
amended, but could not be omitted, as it formedpart ofthe Bill.
Lord G. SOMERSET slid the amendment might be consi-
dered on the third reading, and that the Hon. Member for
Cheshire (Mr. T. Egerton) had eht irge of this particular
clause, and he would perhaps devise EIL mac means of obviating
the objection.
Mr. T. EGERTON said that he had consulted with his
Hon. Friend the Member for Sussex (154 'r. Darby), who had
great experience in these particular matters, and he had as •
surred him that the term " enjoyment" ; was d perfectly legal
term, and one well understood, and the refore not likely to
occasion any difficulty.
The amendment was then withdrawn.
The remainder of the clauses were then passed with a few..
verbal amendments, and the Bill was order, ad to be engrossed
and read a third time on Wednesday next,' r. 't twelve o'clock.

On the motion of Lord G. SOMERSET that' the report be
brought up,
Mr. GREENE brought it up, when
Colonel SIBTHORP said that he found that all. opposi-
tion to these pills, %%Melt lie considered oeii her more ilex less
than attacks on private property, was utt erlyineft'ectaal ;
and he should, therotore, refrain from it 11l 'this in-
Wance, but he did hope that when they w. !Igo lo another
place they would meet with rejection, and %.I.he country
would learn that there was some feeling- for thet: property of
the small proprietors in Parliament.
After several verbal amendments, the Bill ra% oi:Q.!qed to
be engrossed and printed, and read a third tim4e

GREAT WESTERN lidwmar.—On Friday a poor
man, named John Jonathan, a wireworker by trade, proceeded
from Bristol to Bath by the third-class (or cheap) train of
the Great Western Railway, where he expired almost imme-
diately upon his arrival. The carriages employed in this
train, although covered, are exposed at the sides, and in the
present inclement state of the weather are, if possible, more
inconvenient than the notorious second-class vehicles of this
line. A coroner's inquest was held on the body of the unfor
tunate man at the Full Moon Inn, Bath, on Saturday, when
it appeared in evidence that, although the deceased had been
for some time labouring under ill health, he left Bristol on
Friday morning not worse than usual; that he was
well clad, having double his usual quantity of clothes
on; and that the cough from which he had previously
been suffering had been eased by some medicine prescribed
for him in Bristol:. .On his arrival at Bath, however, he
was unable to get out of 'the carriage in which he had
been conveyed ; he was removed by one of the porters, and
assisted out of the station, thence transferred to the care of
one of the boys who wait about the place, and after stag-
gering a few steps he fell down and expired. He was con-
veyed to the shop of Mr. Bright, a chemist, in the imme-
diate neighbourhood; two medical gentlemen were imme-
diately sent for, both of whom attended, but their efforts to
restore animation were unavailing. The above facts having
been deposed to by various witnesses, the jury returned a
verdict that, " The deceased died by the visitation of God,
and that his death had been accelerated by his exposure to
the inclemency of the weather in one of the third-class car-
riages of the Great Western Railway." The jury also ap-
pended to their verdict a strong recommendation to the
Great Western Railway Company to carry into effect the
promised alteration of the second and third-class carriages
made by the Chairman at the last hall- yearly meeting, at as
early a period as possible.
In consequence of the recent notorious malpractices
at a gamblin..-house in Canterbury, the magistrates have
issued an order for the suppression of all kinds of gaming,
and announced their intention of prosecuting persons either
guilty of it themselves or allowing it by others.—Dover
Telegraph.
CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY.—The nomination of
candidates for the office of Librarian in this University, is
fixed for the 2d of April, ani the election will take place on
the 311. The name of Mr. John M. Kemble, the celebrated
Anglo-Saxon scholar, has, we find, been accidentally omitted
from the list ahead), published. . •
