      The Bloombh Cosiumb , — On Sunday oonsiderable amusement was occasioned to the numerous visitors in St . James ' s Park , by . the arrival of a complete batch of "Bloomers , " consisting of five females and two males , evidently moving in the upper class of society . Two , of the ladies were Frenchwomen . They were certainly most elegantly attired , all the ladies being dressed alike , with the exception of the Frenchwomen , who wore blue browsers , ; whilst those of our own countrywomen were pink . The upper dresses ( ooats we suppose they call them ) were of rich brocade satin , and the covering for . the head , a sort of cross between a bonnet and hat , aa it did not partake more of one article than the other . The only difference " obseN vable in the gentlemen ' s attire was their verr short coats . . The new style of dress did . not appear to be agreeable to the mob , for the " Bloomers " had scirce made their appearance , before thev were

They liad got placed , when af earful discharge of steam and a great noise from tbe Ranger , indicated that something was wrong . The other boats ran to her assistance , and found that the pressure that had teen put on bad occasioned one of the tubes of the toiler to give way . One of the crew who had got scalded , jumped overboard , and was with ) some difficulty rescued . He was nearly drowned . The other men escaped comparatively unhurt . Tbe boat ' was towed into the Tvne again .

      The Seizobb op the " Levbsbidb . "—From letters received by the owner of the ship , it appears -Captain Campbell has obtained a verdict against Captain Tesey with £ 200 damages . Thk River . —In consequence of the fog prevailing on the river on Friday , the in and out going ste amers and craft were compelled to come to an anchor , from London Bridge down to Margate , and in some cases were not able to weigh till half-past nine o ' clock . : ' Fatal Accbdest . —About nine o ' clock on Friday Evening , as the driver of one of Messrs . Pickfords " waggons waB proceeding up President-street , Gos--veil-street , sitting at the tune on the shaft , and , as 33 supposed , being asleep , he fell off , the wheels passing over him , and crushing him in the most ¦ frightful manner . When the body was taken up life was quite extinoi .

      Tub Fatal Collision * nbar Nottingham . —The coroner ' s inquiry into the causes of death to John Taylor , who was killed in a collision between a Derby passenger train and Codnor Park mineral train , within a mile of Nottingham , on Wednesday morning , wa 3 resumed at the Guildhall , on Friday afternoon , at two o ' clock . The evidence adduced displays a degree of carelessness , or rather recklessness , on the part of one or more of the Midland Company ' s guards , almost without a parallel in the annals of railway accidents . One of the witnesses , Robert White , a youth who works the points at the . Nottingham station , upon whom it was said the responsibility rests of seeing that every servant is at lis post previous to allowing a train to leave the station , upon being questioned on that point said , if a train were going out with only one instead oi

      two guards he did not know that he had any authority to stop it . There might have been twenty trains gone out without guards , and he not Know Of it , if he were at the bottom of the yard shunting . After a little discussion on various points , the coroxer recapitulated the chief features of the evidence , and endeavoured to fix upon the minds of the jury every fact deposed to that was material to be taken into consideration previous to determining on their verdict . After a quarter of an hour ' s absence , the jury returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against John Bowers " an under guard , and he was Committed upon the coroner ' s warrant for trial at the next Nottingham assizes . With regard to Royoe , a porter and guard , the jury recommended that he be immediately "dismissed from the service of the Company . This verdict appeared to give general satisfaction .

      The LiTE Fatal Collier ? Accident hear Abbr-3 > abe . —The brief particulars of this dreadful calamity , by -which fourteen persons were hurried into eternity , "will he found in our sixth page . The inquest upon the bodies has since been held , and after a lengthened investigation the jury returned the following verdict;— " Accidental deatb , caused by the breaking of the iron rods which connected the cross and the bucket . But the jury cannot separate without expressing their disapproval of the present system of letting men go down to . their ¦ work in the same way as materials are got up ; and they recommend that drifts should ba made in all similar works so as to enable the workmen to go to work witbont any danger .

      ' Metropolitan Registration . —By appointment of the Chief-Justice , Mr . Macqueen is , on Tuesday next , the 16 th inst ., to commence the revision of the lists of voters for the Tower Hamlets , the borough of Finshury . the city and liberties of Westminster , and the borough of Marylebone , including Paddington and St . Fancras . Fatal Accnmsx ok the Eastern Counties Railwat . —A lamentable accident , terminating iatally , happened on Wednesday night , at the Broxbourne station of the Eastern Counties Railway , to a passenger named James Grass , stated to be a tavern keeper , at Brandon , in Suffolk . He was a passenger by the Norwich np-train , which reaches Broxbourne at twenty minutes past nine , and wishing to alight at Xea Bridge , where that train did not stop , he got out for tne . purpose of taking

      bis seat in the last up Hertford train , which called at the station where he desired to be dropped , and which , as usual , bad been shunted into a Biding , in order to allow the Norwich train to pass on . On leaving the train , he suddenly stepped behind the screen of the up-platform , unperceiyed apparently fey the officers . On th Norwsch train leaving , the Hertford proceeded to shunt out of the side , and in so doing caught the unfortunate man , and squeezed him fearfully against the platform . He was extricated with all despatch , and proving to be alive , he was conveyed by the train to Lea Bridge , and then removed to the house of some friends at Walthamstow . Every medical aid was rendered him , but his internal injuries were too frightful for him to recover , aad in an hour or so he expired . There does not seem any blame attributable to the

      company . Accohdikq to a return of rates made by the Commissioners of Sewers , it appears that that the total rateable annual value of the districts , in 1849 , was £ 8 , 077 , 591 ; in 1850 , it had risen , to £ 8 , 791 , 957 ; the cost of management per annum was £ 20 , 005 7 s . 6 d . in 1849 , and £ 23 , 46518 s . 7 d . in 1850 .

      COTTON . . IlvEBPOot , Sept . 16 . —The saleg of cotton to ^ ay are estimated at 6 , 000 bales , of which 1 , 000 are for export , smduone on speculation ; they include 200 Pernamanel Maranham , at 5 Jd to 6 J ; 100 Egyptians , at 5 Jd to 7 d ; and 500 Surat at 8 £ d to 4 jd . The total sales since Thursday are 26 , 000 bales , and tho imports since that day 600 bale ; , The market closes quiet , but with much firmness ; and , eompaifed wwh Friday ' s rates , prices of American sorts are tight ; all other kinds without alteration . Manchester , Sept . 16 The transactions to-day hare been very considerable , both in the number and extent . Producers both of yarns and cloths continue to maintain an attitude of great firmness and confidence . The pricel asked by manufacturers wero generally in advance of those quoted last week , though in some instances lower rates

      were submitted to . The bulk of the operations , however , hare been made at firm prices . The demand for East India goods is inanimate , and prices are still drooping for article * usually exported to that region . There was an active inquiry for water-twist , both by the home trade and export houses . The transactions of to-day , together with the orders previousl y given , will probably be sufficient to keep ¦ pinners of this , descri ption of yarn actively employed for several months to come . Both in cloth and yarn operaturns wer « probably less numerous than they would have been if producers had been disposed to court business ij making an abatement in their terms * but vjLth the present rates of cotton tbis could hardly be expected . The India houses are looking with much interest to the aniral of the Overland Mail , and its advices will probably have a considerable effect on the future course of tin ' s market . . ¦
