Farrow had been cautioned by the overman , Henderson , to keep clear of a particular part of the mine , which had been observed foul .

The speedy arrival of the engines happily confined the flames to two large barns , which , with the corn and implements , were totally consumed . The fire continued to burn through the greater part of the night , but the house and -adjoining sheds were saved . There is every reason to believe that the premises were wilfully fired , but no clue to the discovery of the offenders has been obtained . The loss was covered by an insurance in the Sun Fire-office .

      The Great Railway Bridge at OnEPSTOw . — The first suspension tube for the railway bridge over the river Wye , at Chepstow , has been fully tested by the immense weight of eleven hundred tons being attached to it , and its capability for bearing the heavy weights which will pass over it has been completely demonstrated . The works are now so far advanced that there is every hope that by tbe first weefcin April one of the lines of rail will be opened for the purpose of traffic . The bridge combines the Britannia tubular and the Menai susp-nsion principles , and this combination will ^ render it doubly secure . Mr . Stephenson , the eminent engineer , has inspected the bridge and concurred in the plan adopted bj Mr . Brunei . Preparations are now being made for the purpose of raising the first tubs : all the difficulties which so long obstructed the progress of the

      bridge have now been overcome , and a firm foundation for the supporting cylinders completely secured . Explosios op a Steam-esqine Boiler . —A deplorable accident occurred at West-bill , Oldham , on Monday morning , by the explosion of a steam engine boiler . A small factory had been erected of two stories in height and twenty yards long , with an eight-horse steam-engine , by Measrs . Xuttall and Clough . The boiler exploded with a terrific report , at the same time rising out of the brick work and leaping into the air and pitching forward alongside and past the factory to a distance of forty yards , whilst the back end of it , which was the part first giving way , was blown to a great height , passing over a double row of cottages at the west end of the factory . This part of the boiler was afterwards found fifty yards distant , and some of the bricks

      and cotton waste from the factory were found at upwards of 100 yards distant . The boiler-end , in its course , struck the tail chimney of the factory , and caused it unfortunately to fall over upon the nearest cottages , almost wholly destroying two of them , and killing one of the occupants , Mary Newton , who was at the time preparing her husband s dinner in the kitchen . She was assisted out of the cottage alive , bnt died within an hour afterward ? , from braises and scalds , Her son , a boy about eleven years old , was about fifteen yards from the door , having on his back the youngest child , sixteen months old . Both of them were scalded . The child , Sarah Ann Newton , was also struck on the nose bv a brick , and severely wounded . The little sufferer died very shortly afterwards . Mrs . Wri ght , ^ neighbour , was in Mrs Newton ' s house , and also sustained a severe and dangerous blow on the forehead . James Howarth , the enginetenter , was in the fireplace when the boiler exploded , and it went over his head , but he was knocked down by the brickworkand received such

      - , severe injuries on the spine and other parts of the body that his recovery is not expected . John Gartside , who was working at a wheel in the factory , was struck with a brick and so severely hurt that he is not likely to recover . The explosion destroyed about 300 square feet of masonry at the side of the building where the boiler stood , but the machinery has not suffered much damage . Seven men belonging to the Amalgamated Society of Engineers were in this part of the mill , inspecting the shafting , vith a view to taking the place for a machine shop , but received no injury , though one lost his hat , and another got his foot fast in the flooring a short time through the explosion . Three of the cottages had their doors and windows broken , in addition to two being destroyed . The boiler had only been put down twelve months , but was an old one patched up . The stays inside were strong and well bolted apparently , and one has torn therivets from tbe end of the boiler before « ivmg way .

      Mischievous Hoax , and Unjust Assault by Policemen . —The Liverpool watch committee are engaged ia investigating the circumstances under , which an audience , assembled in the Catholic chapel of the Holy Great Cross , CrosBballstreet , to hear a lecture from the Hey . Dr . Cahill , on Monday evening , were very unjustiuably ' attaoked , and many of the congregation severely injured , The facts appear to be these . During the lecture , somo misohievouslv-disposed party entered the place and called out that a beam was breaking ; about the same time , the police state that they were informed a number of Orangemen had entered the chapel , and that their presence was immediately required to quell a serious riot . It is well known that the authorities of Liverpool have at all times the greatest difficulty in suppressing tumults between the Catholic and

      Orange portions of the population , whenever collisions unfortunately occur ; and a strong force of police was soon mustered on this occasion , who proceeded at once to the supposed scene of conflict . Here they found the people rushing out of the chapel pell-mell , under the panic caused by the alarm of the broken beam , and who , on their arrival outside the doors , " were furiously attacked by the police . One poor woman bad her arm broken , and many are con * fined to their homes by the injuries received . Indsdatios op a Coal Pit . —Seven Lives Lost . —The melancholy catalogue of disasters resulting from the late heavy rains in the northern counties has been augmented by the occurrence of a flood in a coal-pit , near Roohdale , by which seven persona are supposed to have perished . The scene of this calamity is the Chadwick Hall Colliery .

      at Birtly-cum-Bamford , between Kochdale and Bury . The colliery belongs to Messrs . Itoscoe and Lord , and the pit in which the fatality took place has been worked for about four years . During the recent wet weather the water in the old mines has accumulated to such an extent that on the 18 th inst . it suddenly burst through into the main drift of Messrs . Rosooe and Lord ' s mine whilst the colliers were at work . Two of the colliers being near the shaft , and hearing the noise of the rushing water , with great difficulty succeeded in reaching tho cage , and were wound up in safety . Two other men and two boys who were in the upper part of the mine , retreated along the driftway , from which they were unable to escape in time , and were rapidly pursued by the rising water . On reaching the top of the drift way their further progress was prevented , and they were compelled to watch in agonising suspense the gradual approach of the water to within a few inches of the place

      where they stood , awaiting the doom which appeared inevitable . After remaining in this perilous situation upwards of six hours they were enabled to escape , through tbe subsiding of the water , There were still five boys and th * ee men in the mine , for whose fate the most fearful apprehensions were excited . The lifeless bodies of Robert Shepherd and Samuel Wolstenholme were recovered on the following day . The former was thirty years of age , and has left a widow and four children . His body was much cut and bruised . Wolstenholme was a boy , Bixteen years of age , The names of the others are Benjamin Shepherd , aged twelve ( son of Robert Shepherd ) : W . Gates , thirty ; T . Lees , thirty ( both married men with families ); and three brothers , Minny Bowartb , eighteen ; Robert , fourteen ; and Noah , sixteen ; sons of a farmer in the neighbourhood . Another man , whose name we do not know , was taken out alive on the following day , but five of the above persons have yet to be accounted for .

      Tiie Alleged " Diggings" is Skje . —We have been favoured with the sight of a few specimens of tho Skye gold , from which we find that our northern friends are unr happily labouring ut » der a sad delusion , The mental ap . proximates to the colour of gold , and has a clear bright glitter ; but so have the metallic diamonds that sparkle in the sunbeams on our houseetops , and which are at least of equal value with the " produce of our Celtic California . — Aberdeen Herald . The Fifeshire Murder . —From a communication received on Sunday by the authorities from the police superintendent at Cupar , we learn that the murderers of the old woman , Margaret Maxwell , who was deprived of life in such a barbarous manner a few days ago , have been apprehended . The watch which was stolen from the house by the wretches has at the same time been recovered . There are three parties implicated in the murder , but the names have not reached us . —North British Mail .

      Distressing Accidhst . —Two Men Killed . —On Tuesday afternoon a very distressing accident , by whioh two masons were killed , and a third bo severely injured that scarcel y any hopes are entertained of his recovery , occurred at a new building in tne course of erection in Bath-street . It appears that the tenement was so far advanced as to be about ready for roofing . The unfortunate men , the time of tbe occurrence being about the dinner hour , were seated on a scaffolding In the fourth story , taking their mid-day repast together , when , without any warning , the back gable , on the top , of which the scaffolding was erected suddenly gave way , and fell with a dreadful crash , carry ! ing the men along with it , and burying them in the ruins . One of the men , named Conna ! , was first got out , but quite dead ; another , named Forysth , was also speedily extricated , but only lived for a few minutes . The third whose name is . Macbeth , was dreadfully bruised and cut

      aoout tne head and body , but being in life was removed to the Royal Infirmary , though with little hope of recovery ibe only reason assigned by competent parties for the melancholyana unlooked for event is the insecurity of the foundation on which the house had been erected . Connal we regret to learn , was a married man , but we have not heard whether he has left any family . Forsjth was nnmarried . —Glasgow Paper .

      JManfc , The " Catholic University . *'—It appears to be generally understood here that the English government has long rince notified to the Court of Rome that , in the event of the Cullen project being fully realised , and funds being actually Bnbacribed towards the building of the university and the future endowment of its professors , the projectors of the scheme will find too late that a vast expenditure of both time and money has been to all intents thrown away . In plain terms , no charter will be granted , no degrees will be recognised by the state , and fifty Synods of Thurles notwithstanding , the Queen ' s Colleges will be maintained in opposition to all the factious influences which maybe brought to bearaeainst them . _ _ n „ , „ _ m . , Chancert

      Reform in thk Court op . —All the officials connecied with the Irish courts of equity have been for some days busily engaged in making out returns connected with the workin g of their several departments , and which are to be laid before government with all possible despatch . It is now almost certain that the reform besom will be extensively applied towards lessening the labours of the Court of Chanoory , and conferring the inestimable boon of speedy and cheap j ustice upon the public at large . Thb Latb Special Commission . —The attorney who acted for the prisoners in the recent trial for the murder of Mr . Bateson , at the special commission , has written a letter to the " Freeman ' s Juumal , " to contradict the statement made by Lord Glengall in the House of Lords that only three of the jurors were for an acquittal . Mr . M'Mahon , the attorney , states distinctly that on the first trial there were nine jurors for acquitting the prisoner , and on the second trial

      seven . The Late Mr . Shiel . —The remains of . the late Right Hon . Richard Lalor Shiel arrived in Dublin on Saturday night , and were deposited , in Uhe Jesuits' Church of St . Francis Xavier , where Archbishop Murray and other Roman Catholic prelate * are to preside at solemn obsequies for the deceased . The removal of the remains to Tipperary will then take place in a private manner . Evictions . —460 persons were evicted last week on the estates of Lord Gort , lately sold in the Encumbered Estates Court .

      Murder in Limerick . —The Lord Lieutenant has offered a reward of £ 100 for the ) conviction of the person or persons concerned in the murder of a man named Cleary , which was perpetrated near Agkeaton on Thursday night week . The deceased was land-bailiff to Edward Davenport , Esq . He had collected about £ 12 in rents that day , and when last Been he had a loaded pistol for his protection . His dead body was found with a gun or pistol shot wound through the heart . His pistol was found in his pocket , but discharged , and the money was gone . The Limerick , WeBtmeath , Kerry , Tipperary , and King ' s County papers , received to-day , contain reports of agrarian outrages of the ordinary character—viz ., grievous outrages on persons , incendiary fires , threatening notices , and firing at individuals .

      Mr . Thomas Brereton , resident magistrate , Tuam , is summoned for the 4 th March , to the petty sessions , by his brother magistrates , for assault upon Patrick Lowry in the streets , and who swore that he called him one of the M'Hale ' s dogs ! Bridget Barnes , who had a cut over her right temple , swore informations against tbe Rev . Mr . Weldon , Protestant curate of Tuam , for knocking her down and kicking her . The Late Mikistrt . —It would be hard to conceive a more singular exhibition of national levity of character than

      that displayed at this moment , or the joy with which the Irish " liberals" are prepared to rush into the arms of the Tories . A coercive and violent Antt-Catholio Ministry is threatened ; Reform is knooked on the head , and the men who are already pledged to lay violent hands on trial by jury in Ireland are expeoted back ; but anything for a change seems to be welcome . The " brigade" members who were denounoed for their tergiversation on Lord Naas ' a motion have received full absolution on the strength of their " good behaviour . " The '• ' Freeman " ahouts in triumph that the hour of retribution has arrived .

      Lord Ca 8 tlereagh has addressed the electors of Down in explanation of his intention to retire from the representation of tho r county . The Spring circuits commenced on Tuesday with the assizes of the town of Drogheda . Neither in the judge ' s charge to the grand jury nor in the oases tried was there anything of the slightest general interest . With the excoption of the agrarian outrages in a few of the countieB , the calendars to be disposed of at the present assizes throughout Ireland exhibit few oases that will excite public interest . The Russell Miwsm . —The " Cork Examiner "—once upon a time a champion of the men who formed tho late government—thus speaks of their downfall : — " And so their career of cruelty , negleot , and imposture-of daring promise , and bare-faced lying—is now at an end ; and , save the disappointed place-hunter , whose all was embarked in

      their existence , there is not a human being who does not feel elated at their destruction . Better , any day , to have a bold , open foe , than a false friend . For our part , we look upon the-change as most salutary for this country ; for WWggeif ? was degrading and debasing it to theprofOUndeSS depths of rottenness and slavery . " State PaosECunoN . —The grand . jury of Louth found true bills for a seditious libel against Mr . Cartan , proprietor of the "Dundalk Democrat .

This venerable prelate has been seised with a fit resembling paralysis , and his extreme age , eighty-three , precludes all hope of ultimate reoovery .

      Army Equipment . —The " Banner of Ulster , " a careful collator of military information , states that the eight Highland regiment—five wearing the kilt , and three the trews—are to be armed and equipped as ride corps , with the green jacket and tartan trowsers ; consequently , the kilt , the last remnant of a barbaric age , whioh has been Ion ? doomed , is to be sent to the right-about .

      Dangerous Condition op Sheerness . —Appalling as is the catastrophe that occurred at Holmfirth , one of a much more fearful nature threatens tho town of Sheerness , and to which that will bear but a faint comparison , where , in the event of an inundation , thousands are likely to meet with a watery grave , as well as hundreds of thousands pounds worth'of property destroyed , belonging to government as well as private individuals . This our readers will be beat able to judge when considering the following particulars ; and , should it meet the eye of those who command an influence , doubtless it will obtain theattention the cape demands : —Sheerness lies about ei ght feet below high water mark at the time of spring tide , and some parts more than ten feet . There are about 2 , 500 inha bitants in Blue

      Town , aud about 5 , 000 in Mite Town ; tho houses are built lightly , and principally of wood , so that in the event of the water coming in with any velocity , it is likely to carry ; he houses before it and bury the inmates in their ruins , With no prospect of escape , besides drowning the immense quantity of sheep and cattle on the marshes . Persons who visit -Sheerness , and make their observations at the time Of high water , will discover that the tide rises to within a foot of the top of the stonework of the dockyard and tho beichwall , and should the wind blow strong from the northwest , they will see it frequently splash over the wall ; and what happens to other places may happen to Sheernessnamely , a two-feet riBe of tide above the usual height . The consequence would be a calamit y not to be described or equalled in the annals of history , upon which the sensible inhabitant cannot reflect without shuddering for his own safety , especially when considering that it would extend

      tor nearly two miles round the town , thus giving little room for retreat . Only picture the two towns of Mile Town and Blue Town , with together upwards of 7 , 000 inhabitants , after quietly resting at night , thankful at being preserved from the storm that rages at aea , the shrill whistle of whose wind they only hear , when of a sudden , as of the thundering voice of the . HolmBrth waters , yet with unstayed progress and equal fury , they are at once awoke and swept away , on land , by the fury of the element that surrounded them , and" from the influence of which they vainly considered themselves secure . Yet should the tide rise but two feet above tbe usual hei ght , this would be an inevitable consequence . That the sen walls are weak , and require strengthening with good stonework instead of mud , is evident , and being raised three feot higher at least , to render the towns and dockyard safe from such an occurrence ; at the same time it would provide employment for many . —United Service Gazette .
