They providentially evaded his blows and he was secured . He was committed to the House of Correction for one month .

This sixpence she completely identified as being among the money in the fill . The offence was brought home to the prisoner , who was committed to take his trial at the next sessions .

      Midqlby . —The first anniversary of the Badi' cal Association of this place was held on Tuesday evening , at the Shoulder of Mutton Inn , when a plain substantial dinner wag provided for the members . Mr . Naylbr , a labouring man , was called to the chair . After the cloth was withdrawn , and the tables removed , at which nearly forty persons had dined , who are joined members of the Association , the room was thrown open for the public , and soon filled-by apparently happy and contented villagers . Mr . Wilkinson , the chairman of the Radical As sociation at Halifax , and Mr . Tetley , who were the ' two invited guests , were also present , and the

      last named gentlemen commenced the business of the evening by reading to the meeting the printed rules of the Association , after which the chairman introduced Mr . Wilkinson , who made a neat speech , in which-he- strongly recommended the adoption and practice of the Radical principles upon " his audience . . Toaste were afterwards given from the chair , amongstwhichwas— "F . O'Connor , Esq ., and the Radical press , " responded to by Mr . Wilkinson , and songs and speeches became the order of the evening , till abont twelve o ' clock ,

      when the meeting broke up . It is said some Conservative Operatives were in the room , who have formed a society for the purpose of propagating error , mischief , and oppression , by affecting to defend , laws which in themselves are injurious to labour ; and , of course , proving them sufficiently mad to attempt a work which can only end in their destruction . They had sense enough , however , to Terrain on this occasion from offering any opposition Mr . W . gave them a rap on the knuckles they will not soon forget .

      X&EXC 3 HU 3 ? ' . Accidental Death . —On Monday week , a fine little boy , about ten years of age , named John Bland , of Lane-ends , near Keighley , lost his life in the following lamentable manner . He was playing in an excavation newly made for a wheel-rase , when a large portion of the loose earth above , fell upon him and literally buried him alive . The quant ity of fallen earth was so great that it took several men two hours in coming at the body , which when found was crushed and mangled in a shocking manner .

      Socialism v . Radicalism . —On Tuesday evening week , a public discussion took place in the Radical Association Boom , as to whether Socialism or Radicalism ought to take the precedence in improving the condition of the labsuring class . The Radical cause was advocated by Mr . Thos . Knowles , keeper of the Temperance Hotel , and the Social , by a young man named Jacob Scott and several others A chairman was appointed to keep order , and the discossion , which lasted two honrs , was supported in a spirited and orderly manner by both parties , the Socialists contending that their system would do away with the necessity of Radical Reform altogether , and Mr . Knowles arguing that without Radical Reform neither Owen nor any other system

      for the benefit of industry would have the slightest chance of success . To rescue themselves from the difficulties of this position , Messrs . Scott and Smith brought forward the protection afforded by law to all existing societies , and the solemn assurances made by government to Mr . Owen , that his system should Taave a fair trial . These arguments were quickly and ably overturned by Mr . 3 L who proved from innumerable facts the hostility of the present Government to all the various societies which have been devised for the real protection of labour , which appeared to leave a final impression on the minds of the assembly , entirely favourable to his own views , namely , that Owenism without the protection of Universal Suffrage is a mere chimera and must ultimately fall to the ground .

      Shocxikg Accident . —On Friday morning week , an inquest was held at the Jarratt-street Station House , before T . D . Hill , Esq ., Solicitor , Depu ty Coroner , and a respectable jury , on the body of Mr . Henry Mitchell , son of Mr . S . Mitcbellj tobacconist , who had been shot by his wife with a pistol , on the previous Wednesday , and died on Thursday afternoon . The evidence adduced was in substance ag follows : Mr . Chaper deposed that he resided in Silvester-street , opposite to the house of Mr . Mitchell , and that on Wednesday he heard the report of a pistol , and while looking about to ascertain the cause , the door of the deceased was opened by the servant girl , who called out murder . He went into the house , and saw

      deceased standing on the floor , supported by his wife , who held a pistol in her hand , which he toot from ier ; she had also a brace of small pistols , loaded , in her bosom , which , at his request , she gave himj he also fonnd another large pistol , loaded , but the cap was taken off ; both said Mrs . M . had fired the pistol , while skylarking or playing together . She said she thought- nothing of loaded fire-arms , and had given her sister ' s child loaded pistols to play with . Mr . Green , surgeon , was sent for , and fonnd that the ball had passed through the" lower part of his body- He was perfectly sensible . His deposition was taken before the Mayor , and stated that the accident was occasioned by skylarking together . A ball was picked up in the room by Mr . Chaper , which was given to him . He had no doubt but that the wound was sufficient

      to cause death . Elizabeth Hampson , servant to the deceased , heard the report of the pistol . She nad seen Mrs . M . run from the back to the front room , and Mr . M . after her , as if in play . When she heard the pistol , she thought her master had shot her mistress ; that was the reason she called out murder . There had been no quarrel between them ; her master always slept with loaded pistols under his pillow . The Coroner briefly addressed the jury , after which they deliberated about five mianfes , and then returned a verdict of " Accidental death , " with a deodand of Is . upon the pistol . They also expressed their disapprobation of the careless manner in which the pistols had been used .

      Bomdbd Corn . —The duty of Is . was paid on eighty-four thousand quarters oi wheat , in bond , at oar Custom House , on Saturday last . During the week , half a million of money has been paid to the foreigners . So much for the benefits obtained by the Corn Laws . Radical Mertikg at Hull . —On Friday evening week , the Radicals of Hull , were favoured with the unexpected pleasure of meeting Mr . Lowry one of the delegates from the London Working Men ' s Association , who was on his way to attend the great demonstration at Manchester . He addressed a select number of the working classes with

      considerable effect , in the large room of the Royal Oak , Blackfriargate . On the following day , notice was given by the bellman that Mr . L . would address the Radicals of Hall , at eight o ' clock in tke evening , from one of the windows of the above inn ; soon after which houT a considerable number of tne working classes attended . The meeting would ' have been much more numerous had the notice been more pubb ' c . Mr . Lowry spoke for a considerable time , and in a calm masterly way directed the attention -of his audience to the various wrongs inflicted , on the people by that wholesale system of misrule to which the country was subjected both by Whigs and Tories . He referred to the enormous taxation of all the necessaries of life ,

      and to the Bhameful and wanton expenditure of the Government . He denounced in strong terms the abuses of the State Church , and in particular pointed oat the hypocrisy and infidelity of those who , professing to believe the Bible , yet opposed Reform , and aided in perpetuating the miseries of their fellow men ; he bad no notion of that charity which could weep over the wrongs of the slave at about 3000 miles distance , and at the same time aid in enforcing the accursed New Poor Law , and join in damning to a miserable existence and a premature grave , hundreds of thousands of honest mechanics and helpless factory children . For his part he was resolved to do Mb duty ; and he wonld bid them good night , with earnestly calling upon them to do theirs .

      Fbattd Prevented . —James Hayton , master of a sloop appeared before the Magistrates on Saturday , to answer a charge of non-payment of wages preferred by Joseph Mills , who claimed 30 s "for seven days wages and a run up to Stanforth . Defendant said he had offered to give him a sovereign , ' which was a fair gam , but he demanded 25 s which he refused to pay him . Two days was the usual time employed in lading , but thev were seven days , which was no fault of the complainant , but owing to not being able to get deal to suit . He eaUed three witnesses , all captains of small craft

      who severally swore that 20 s was as much as the man had Aright to demand . Mills said if he would have given him 25 s he would have taken it . Mr . Parker , cross-questioned the witnesses , and at length itcame out that the ran would be 23 s and 2 s . 6 d . per day during the time of lading . The Mayor said his own witnesses had decided the case , and tie decision of the Court was that the man be paid 2 s ; 68 . per day for seven days , and 13 s for the run , and 5 s costs . It is well known that these men who are employed on the rivers are shamefully cheated , and the decision of the bench appeared to give general satisfaction .

      charge was made in consequence of the constable receiving information from a mason named Heeiey , and his son , who stated that they had seen the defendant bnrying a goose under some sheaves in a corn field , where he was shearing , about four ¦ .-fields length from the place where the alleged robbery took place . The whole turned oat to be a wild goose story , and the prisoner was discharged . A number of petty assault cases were also disposed of , and small fines , with the expenseg , levied .

      WAKEFIELD . Ossett . —The recent establishment of a Radical Association here appears to have given a fresh impetus to the political feeling and political prineiples of the inhabitants of the town . It has aroused the dormant energies of many , particularfy the operative class j it has called into more active exercise those mental operations—thought and reflection ; and they have come to the determination to * be no longer deceived and duped by the promises and pretensions of either one faction or the other , but take the work into their own hands , and labour with unwearied diligence until the political regeneration of this country be effected . Before the commencement of this association , the people

      of Ossett were remarkably supine and apathetic upon every subject of public importance ; but since then a spirit of inquiry has been excited—people have been brought together , a discussion has ensued , truth has been elicited , falsehood has been detected , prejudices have been removed , and converts made to the Radical cause . Such are some of the benefits to be derived from men meeting honestly and peaceably together , and uniting their best energies for the advancement and promotion of one com * men cause . At their last meeting , which took place on Tuesday night last , it was resolved that Feargus O'Connor , Esq . should be respectfully solicited to come over , and address the association and the inhabitants generally .

      HEyWOODi The Kersjil Moob Meeting . —On Tuesday morning , when the mills should have commenced working , about 200 of the hands were refused admittance , for having left their employ on Mo ; . day to attend the meeting 1 on Xersal Moor . One of the mills belonging to Mr . John Hilton Kay was entirely at rest on Tuesday , from the bands being refused admittance for the above reason . The employers , without exception , had given notice that

      those leaving their work to attend the meeting , would be dismissed , and they made good their notice . On Wednesday morning most of the discarded workmen met , and held a consultation , after which they took their way towards Siddall Moor , and would probably end at Heaton Park races . Similar notices were given by the employers at Bury , notwithstanding which many of the work-people attended the meeting , and were afterwards discharged .

      Confirmation . —At nine o ' clock on the morning of yesterday week , the Bishop of this diocese held a confirmation on" about 200 children , at the OldJChapel , Hey wood . At eleven , his Lordship performed the ceremonial of consecration , at the new Church , now Saint James's . Full service was performed , prayers having been read by the Bev . Mr . O'Brien , tne Curate , after which his Lordship delivered as effective discourse , from the text , " Suffer little children to come nnto me , and forbid them not , for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven . " A numerous and respectable congregation attended the church . On Sunday , a collection , amounting to upwards of £ 20 , was made , towards defraying the necessary expenses of the consecration .

      BOCBDAKE . A Savage . —On Sunday evening , as a young man named Mills , was returning from Rochdale to Oldham , with a young game-cock , which he had some time before purchased from a friend ; when he had got about two miles on his way , he , along with his father , called at a public-bou » e and called for a pint of beer ; a friend asked what he had wrapped up under his arm , and wished to see it When in the act of showing it , a brute , who goes by the cognomen of " Rough Robin , " but whose name is James Turner , got from his seat , and , without saying a word , snatched hold of the bird and actually bit ite head off , and spit it npon the ground .

      Man Drowned . —On Sunday morning last , body of a young man , aged eighteen years , named Robert Clegg , was taken out of a mill-dam , at Hamer Mill , near this town ^ It is surmised , and not without some grounds , that the poor fellow committed the rash act in a fit of temporary excitement , as the sequel will show . He was employed at the printworks , at Belfield , and had , daring the last week made some overtime , which he got paid for :

      and on coming home on the previous night with his wages , his step-mother made a demand for the whole of the money , which led to some angry words on both sides ; but when forced to give it up , it is said that he flew out of the house in a rage , declaring he would go to h- -1 if he came in there again . The youBg man was of very quiet habits ; and , we believe , not treated in many respects as he ought to have beea .

      Petty Sessions . Edward Ainiworth , a woollen-mill proprietor , was brought before the bench , having nine informations preferred against him by J .

      barrister , held a Court , in the Court-Room , Flying Horse , an Tuesday last , which terminated a little after twelve on Wednesday .

Law , solicitor , of Manchester , appeared on behalf of the Tories , and Heaton and Roberts of this town , for the other party . The list contained about 9 fO yoterSj being an increase of nearly 300 since 1832 .

      Toby Feed . —The Conservatives of this town , have placarded the walls and windows very plentifully , announcing that they will celebrate the anniversary by a grand feed , in the place where Mr . Batty has held his Circus , and on which occasion the " ladies of Rochdale , " will present the association with a splendid silk banner . They have not thought proper to state who those ladies are .

      Meeting on Kbrsali . Moqtt ,--0 n Monday murning , before Aurora had peeped over the mountain s top , the Radicals of Rochdale began to shew the interest which they took in the ^ then pending demonstration otii Kersal Mbpr . Crowds of people were perambulating the streets with drams , fifes , and flags , calling together the Radical troops , who by the time of setting off to the Moor , were collected in large numbers . At eight o'clock the band struck off , and marched through the town on their way-to their destination ; all the way the numbers kept augmenting till they wer «> joined by the friends at Middleton , with whom they went in company to that meeting , which will long be remembered by the enemies of the people ' s rights .

Cartwri ght , landlord , of the Norfolk Arms , was summoned for having two bands of music playing ^ in his house onHyde WakesiSupday . Mr . CartwrigbJi proved that he had sent a man up stairs to order the band to cease ; play in p ; but ithey would ^ riot obey his orders . Captain ' Clark * aid , as it was the Wake * , and as Jifcr . Gatbyhad givea the house a good character , the magistrates would only order him to pay costs ; IMPOBTANT TO BATE-PAYEBfcCapt . Clark , one of the magistrates , appealed against the poorrate assessment of Hyde . He said , before Mr . Vaughan , his solicitor , entered into the case , he

      would show the motives which bad induced him to appeal ; various complaints had been made to him of the inequality and partiality of the rate . The complainants were so situated with respect to work and cireum > tanees , that : they apprehended and dreaded injury , if they brbught the case forward themselves . He had inquired into the eases thiat would be brought forward ; and lound the rate to be unequal andillegal : he regretted that men were go situated in their localities , that they durst not complain of just grievances ; but the time was not come when he was so placed and should appeal against tb » rate . ' Mr . Howard thought that the remarks

      made , by his brother magistrate did not apply either to his mill , his tenants , or any understanding ; between him and his inen : if he lthew that he had any servant , who faad-grievances justly to complain of , and was too timid to make them ; or if such servant sought favour -at his hands , and he ( Mr . Howard ) knew it , he would treat him with disdain because of his timidity ; for he hoped no man who worked for him would imagine that be had any intention to suffer the ' continuance of any oppression or grievance ; for he would be most ready , at any time , to redress , wrongs , and treat them in that manner which they ought to be . . Mr . Vaughan

      Hdid , that for many years past the assessors had laid the rate by the yard ; whereby old buildings , that were little better than barns or other outhouses , amounted in as high a rate as the best houses and shops in the front of the streets , and the bbusesih the back streets the same as in the front ; this must be an unjust and illegal rate . Capt . Clark said that the cotton masters bad last night sent the assessors down to'his hall , to examine that he had nothing uhassessed ; as soon as he saw them , he thought proper not to accoippany thern ^ or tamper as he believed others bad done ; his daughter showed them through every apartnKint , and

      when he came to examine what they had done , his hot-beds , pig-cotes , and hen-roostts . were assessed in the same proportion as the cotton roaster * sitting and dining rooms *; he could not think it right for them to assess his hall and land , but- that some disinterested man who would not be tampered ! withy and who would strike with a just hand ought to assess , Mr . Howard could not think that farmers ought to meddle with' factories . Cap ^ Clark said that the factories in Hyde were 3 d . per yard less thanin . Wernetb . Mr . Turner considered ihem worth tbat much mure than his , being more contiguous to the caual . Mr . Charles Howard said that neither his house nor

      mill were under-assessed , but admitted that houses in front of the stlreet were . The : Magistrates then for an hour entered into various modes of assessmenti > , and the relation of under-assessments with respect to what th ^ y ought to be ; Capti Clark contending that there was not any thing { ike justice or equality in them , and Mr . Howard and Mr . Turner rather to justify nnd palliate them . Capt . Clark said , I dare not , I never will sign any warrant of distress for the recovery of rates under this assessment . Mr . Vaughan "a id , he did not wish to create any bad fueling among the Magistrates , but it was evident that the rate was illegal and partial ; it was one of many years continuance of injustice . ; bad both in

      principle and detail ; indeed throughout it was ricioas , be called Mr . Chart ton , the relieving officer and late , oveiseer , . who , ; in -answer to Mr . Vaqghan's questions , admitted that variouR premises were only about half assessed . Mr . Howard , how happened you to assess them in this manner ? Mr . Charlton—I have gone by the old rules , and expressed difficulty under present circumstances . Captain Clark took up hit hat to leave his brother Magistrates ( to quash or confirm the Tate ) but he was dt-sired to Sit . down , and Mr . Vaughan continued his preparations for the Quarter Sessions ; ultimately they agreed to have anew assessment and to apply to the P'oor Law Coramis-« ioners to allow its cost . The assessor to be directed

      by a public meeting strictly not to favour either rich or poor . Mr . Isaac Bottomley appeared at the bar to procure au appeal against the rate of which he had given nbtite ; he held ia his hand an official docmnent from Manchwiter , whioh showed that steam engines are there rated at £ 25 per horse power as first cost , and 7 $ per cent , as on buildings , while , not a single horse power in assessed in Hyde and its vicinity , but the Captain ' tf ease had effected the ultimate purpose , if the inhabitants will see that it is enforced and will lay down a good precedent for future rates .

      SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY . OnWednesday last , a report was circulated throughout the metropulis , that au accident had occurred on the line of the Great Western . Rajlway , near to the terminus at Alaiaennead , which had been attended wi : h great loss 6 f human life , and a great destruction of property . From inquiries which our informantha < instituted , we are , howeyer , happy to say , that although an accident of a serious nature did occnr , it was unattended with any sacrifice of li ' e . The particulars are as follow : — During the last fortnight two trains , termed , " experimental trains , " have travelled daily to and fro , with carriages and truclcs heavily laden with stone and iron * to the extent , in some instances of

      180 tons , for the purpose of trying the strhngth of the rails and " p errnaheht way * - " At twenty hiinutesbefore eighto'cjock yesterday morning , the _ Molua engine started : from the Paddington terminus with nine carriages , heavily laden with stone and iron , with which it proceeded on an experimental trip towards Maidenhead , and at eight o ' clock the North Star engine left the same terminus with what is called the eight o ' clock train , consist-, ing of seven carriages and five stage coaches , the whole occupied -with passengers and luggage . Along the whole line the foff was very dense , and between the West Dray ton Station :: and Slough , the North Star overtook the : iEolus , which train it

      propelled from behind to Slough , ; where the North Star stoDped to set dowu passengers , the jEolus continuing its progress . The North Star did not delay , hovrever , more than two minutes , when it proceeded on . its journey to Maidenhead , at a steady pace , the fog being very thick on that portion of the line , the engineer * and attendants not : being able to s .-e more than fifty or sixty yards before them . When near the engine-house , close to Maidenhead , the Molna wasperceived tobe aboat fifty yardsahead of them , on the sable track of rails , and it being feared tbat unless that engine Quickened its speed a collision must inevitably tstke place , the whistles of tne guards were loudly sounded to give notice of the North Star ' s approacn , the engineers and attendants of the latter tram instantly using their ^ breaks " -to

      endeavour , if possible , to check their speed * Unfortunately , however , they were unable to do so . and almost immediately afterwards the North Star came writh great force against the hindmost carriage Of the iEolus traifl , by which it was shivered into a thousand Dieces , the roof knocking off the chinmey of the North Star , and otherwise damaging ; and injurifig the works , The next carriage of the ^ EoIds train was also much shattered , and forced up by the concnssion to the top of the carriage immediately before it , which was likewise much damaged . The excitement and alarm among the passengers of the North Star twqn was , as may be supposed , most intense , it Veing feared that the engineers and stokers , who vrwe at -the moment attending the engine , musr , by the collisioh . have been dashed to * fi / oilier

      »«»« " «> u . viarji , HUUj nuu ncvenu gentlemen , connected with the company , was on the tender of the ^ Eolus , as soon as tbat engine could be stopped ran to see after them , but at the first moment they were no where to be seen . Almost immediately , however , they were perceived , quite safe , lying at full length on the tender ^ whither they had , at the suggestion of Appieby , the engineer , thrown themselves on perceiving their danger . Oh examuungthe Korth Star , it was fonnd to be too moch injured to proceed ; but after fliedeiaY of an hour m . removing the broken and other carnages of the experimental train , the passengers were conveyed the short remaining distance by the iEolus , which likewise proceedecT with the return-train to town . " The carriages destroyed were tone of each class ; viz—first , second , and opjn . Including the damage done to the North Star , the loss is estimated at about £ 2 , 000 .

      Jtty 8 * 8 RJfOC 8 FiKK AT GtOUCBSTJEIt . —^ Ott Sunday afternoon , aboui ^ quarter-past three o ' clock , a fire was discsvered on the premiaes of Mr . Edwards , tailbr , Eastgate-atveet , in this city , which created great alarm at the moment , and has ever since given ri ? e to the greatest perplexity as twits origin . Mr . Ed wares and his wife left home on Saturday evening , to visit udmt * friends in the country , and had not returned at the time of the casualty . The inmates of the house on Sunday were an apprentice , named Nicholls , and a servant girl , both of whom went oat about half-past two o ' clock . In about half or three-quarters of an hour afterwards smoke was seen making its way through the r < K » f and

      other partn . ¦;' , this excited the alarm of some of the Deigbbours , who knocked at the door , but finding no one within , | 4 r . Ctutterbuck , surgeon , Mr . George Wa 8 hboufn ^ . and Mr . Haviland , followed by Mr . Nathaniel Wasbbourn , entered the house through die parlour-window , and made their way with all haste up stairs . On arriving at the second laniUngplace they were compelled ; tp withdraw , owing to the heat and denseness of the smoke . They returned down stairs into the kitchen , which they also found enveloped in smoke , issuing from a drawer in a bureau under a secretary . The drawer was . closed , and on being pulled open a large towel , folded up in the centre of the drawer , was found on fire , and

      partly * r-cQ' ^ amed ..- ' - , Tiie ' : -draw . er was carried to . the pump , and a bucket of water thrown on it . In the meantime the alarm was spread , and several persons hastened to render assistance , which ; they did very effectually with buckets . An engine was also brought to play upon the house , but too late to be of inuch service , the fire being got under principally by individual ex « rtioii . The conflagraiion in the upper part of the house was confined to one apartment , a Ded-chamber in which the servant girt slept , and which was used also as a work-troom by Mm . Edwards ' s apprentices . In this apartment two bedsteads and bedding , and other furniture , and a quantity of clothing , dress-making materials , &c , were

      destroyed , spine entirely , and others partially ; An express was sent off for Sir . Edwards , who on hie arrival discovered Uiat jE 12 had been abstracted from fhe secretary in the kitchen , buc the pocketbook in which the money had been placed was found empty in another drawer . The money was afterwards found in the possession of the apprentice , who said he had taken ; it to take care of for his master . The drawer in the kitchen , in which the burning towel was found , was on the opposite side of the room to the grate , and being closed ud communication v > as apparent by which the fire could accidentally have got into it . Then , again , this fire could not have been occasioned from that which was

      burning up stairs , as the first floor intervened , on which there was no indication of fire , and a passage , or hall , also Separated the kitchen from the staircase . Equally , if not more mysterious , is the origin of the fire in the bed-room on the second floor , ltappeared to rage principally from a closet in which was a quantity of clothes , &c , but no candle bad been used in the room since the previous night , and the girl had since slept there , and had been in the room to dress herself and for other purposes repeated , without , as she state ? , observing any smoke or fire ; she had been in the room not long before 8 he left the house to go out for a walk . To account , under these circumstances , for the causes of [ the

      conflagration ,, it was then supposed that it must have originated from one of the adjoining flues . Of these there were four , three belonging to rooms in Mr ^ Edwards ' s house , in which no fire had been lighted for several months . The fourth proceeded from the kitchen of Mr . Sterry ' a house adjoining . Very little fire had been kept in Mr . Scerry's kitchen during the day , so as to make it improbable that the catastrophe had spread from thence ; but to be certain on this point a sweep was sent up the flue , who found ^ ie soot in its natural state , without the slightest appearancfe of its having been ignited | neither was there any wood or any visible defect by which fire , if there bad been any in the flue , could have communicated with Mr . Edwards ' * premises . The flue from Mr . Edwards ' s kitchen ran up on the opposite

      side of thw house . Under the ? e circumstances , Mr . Josiah Castree , agent to the Phcenix Fire Office , ia which the two adjoining houses are insured , applied on Tuesday to the city magistraten , requesting their assistance to investigate the cause of the fire , which they acceded to , and Mr . Edward ? , together with- his apprentice and servant gjr | , Mr . Clutterbnek , Me « sr « . Washburn , Mr . ' Haviiami , and others attended , but nothing was elicited to unravel the mystery j and , we may add , to remove the very great suspicion in which this affair ia involved . : The house belongs to the executors of the late Mr . Wood , and was not insured , neither was any part of Mr . Edwards ' s property , against whom , we need hardly say , no suspicion rests . Thew are minor eircum-8 tance 8 connected with this occurrence which we

      have not enumerated—such as Mr . Edwards ' s belief that he left the bureau in which bis money was kept locked , and its being found unfastened by the persons who entered the house , &c . ; but altogether the case wears such a complexion as to make it almost impossible to suggest even a supposition that this fire was occasioned by accident We regret to have to add that many persons , in their eagerness to render assistance , crowded on the fire-escape ladder to hand buckets of water to the top of the house , when the ladder broke , and precipitated several individuals to the ground ,, injuring two or three slightly , and two rather severely . Tney were removed to the Imfirmary , when it was discovered that the injuries they had sustained were not so great as had been apprehended . One was discharged cured the following day , and the others in a day or two afterwards . — Gloucester Journal .
