      OtSec . One thing which aD most acknowledge is , ii ^ at even" Movement must have its machinery ; and j know of none for the management of ihe Chartist caase so cheap . efficient , and satisfactory as your prejfiit machinery , a ? far as it goes . Every party in the State ha * its governinr . power : nay , every department cr ^ er generalgovernnient or local controul must have it- 'i irfriiiio rtxTu-hinery . No mas , howsoever opposed i--.

Then , J jissen , thai none could be more satisfactory and efficient than the X-TTseni system of ¦ 'myrnin-T tliroiiirh an Executive toaunlitee a * a head ; and -wiat I propose -. lo add im'Iim" detail machinery for the purpose of putting the smaller wheels of the Movement party into motion .

      In passing , I may venture a single comment on the coustitntion of the present Executive ; 1 offer it by way of Teiorl to ibose -rcbo do nothin < r . or les ~ than noihimr . or . sometimes worse than nothing , ¦» liDe they aJV loud in denunciation of the only body tLat has sustained the Movement through its perilous period 02 calm . The Executive consists of an unpaid Treasurer , who , as appeared by a letter of the General f » ecxetarv recently published in the _ Y&rt ** r > i Star , l <

      iut uEtrequratlv called on io add the dun- of paymaster to thai of unpaid Treasurer ; a General . Secretary who receives £ 2 a-week for the discharge of very onerous and responsible duties , and as to whose eiSciency T have never heard a single murmur . These , pith a President and two other Esecnri-re officer , each receiving J-. 1 life , per -week , eonstitm-e yonr eo-Tpminf board : and if 1 may leara their value from public opinion , or judge of their worth by the amount of duty performed by them respectively , 1 think 1 may come to the conclusion that " they earn their bread Bt the- sweat of their brow , " and thai their labour is folh worth the remuneration thev receive .

      H <) r . TiccLTVitE . —^ Ihiring the week we hate uad sonar sharp frosts , the thermometer having fallen on Wednesday morning ten degrees below the freezing point . This sudden change has put a final close to the show of flowers in the flower-garden , which in favourable situations was considerable up to this period . The greenhouse will now require vigilant attention , as the frosts appear to set in with unusual intensenes * . and with little or no warning . We have always been in the habit of recommending the use of mats as . a means of protection against frost , and even year ' s experience convinces us of the great advantage of such a system . If the front and end sashes of a greenhouse are well matted up , one half the fire-heat that would be required if no covering were used , will be sufficient to maintain a proper temperature . The house is : ilso much safer from sudden moniiniT frosts

      than it could otherwise be , without xt ^\ - freijueiitly iightiag the fires when there is no real occasion , l- ' uring the iast year or two a new material , called a-phalted felt , has been manufactured for the purpose of prot ecting houses and pits frvw frost , aad it i > now tft-ttins into extensive u . se for that purpose . 1- i \ iiu the brief experience we have had of it , we are disposed to speak vi it very favourably , as it forms a more efficient protection than a double covering of juats . It requires to l > e nailed upon a slight woodwork frame , which may ]> e made the size of the light . As the material i > very Ikrht the process of fixing and removing h very ea > y , requiring much )> tiim * ana management than mats . If a house were covered with felt , fires would scari-ely !> e necessary , except during very severe fn » ts . For pit * and franies it will answer admirably . Tin' price of this material is one pennv per foot .

A few of the hyacinths and other bulbs may now lie brought in . to encourage them to push up their flower uterus . A little guano water may be applied orc ; & # oiially with advantage . The Flower-gahpes . —The beds of verbena , . scarlet cranium , fnch ^ ia , drc , which luive continued to bloom uji to the present week , may now be cleared , and the clumps ilied with snaall branches of holly , yew , and othei- evergreens , inserted two or three ujches in the mould . If these are neatly cut and well managed they will resemble a bed of young evergreens , and continue green all winter . This will be found very preferable to the sombre naked beds of

To make a good return annually upon this money-investment is his grand object , and therefore he looks mainly to economy of labour .

If we would have land made productive to the utmogt , we must have small farms in tin- hands of active intelligent men , with competent capital . They can attend diligently to the whole 01 the kind they occupy , and adapt their proceedings to varying circumstances . If one crop appears likely to fail , they can discern it in time to break the ground again , and try another—they have their concern more completely li in hand" than is possible in the case of the large farmer .

      Rake \ sst \ scz <> f Lvirefidity . —The Rev . Mr . Blair had lately a very narrow escape from drowning . When in his study , about three o ' clock in the afternoon , he observed two little girls , each with a burden of sticks , attempting to cross the Stinchar , which was considerably swollen ar the time . In a minute or so they disappeai-ed ; on observing which Mr . Blair , unknown to any of his family , ran out to their assistance . The manse being -. 300 or 400 yards from the river , Mr . Blair , with great presence of mind , instead of running directly to the ; place at which he had lo . st sfght of tin-in , to save time ran along the bank , and plunged into the river l > elow where they would most likolv appear . By this time the sriris Ir . ul Jost hold of each other—tin- 0110 he observed iiiakiiiu * towards the side from which ihey had entered , while the other was floating in the middle of the stream . By great dexteritv he seized the latter bv the arm . The

      suddenness , however , of the effort made him lose Ins balance , and in an instant he was seen floating along with the object his humanity prompted him to save . Fortunately , Mr . Blair ' s' usual presence of inimi < iiil not heif forsake him , for he retained his hold with one hand and buoyed himself up with the other . Ln a short time they were out of the strictest of the river , but his own strength was fast giving way . At this critical moment Miss Jane Findlay , of ( . ' raisjneil-miJl , attracted to the snot hy the motions and cries of another , who hail > een the stragglers at a distance , < Jrace J ) ariinL r -like , jilunged into the water , and was the happy means ot saving both , to all appearance , from a watery grave . Mr . Blair having now become too much exhausted and -benumbed with the cold to make farther exertions , From Mr . Findlay and family they received every possible attention , and they were soon so far restored as to be able to bo conveyed to their respective homes . — ! f ' tv < r < /•/»

      . Mki . amholy ArniiE . vi . —Yesterday mornme , between six and seven o ' clock , a lamentable accident took place m the drift-way , or guide mine of the new tunnel at present forming under the New Town , in connexion "with the Edinburgh . Loith . and ( i ran ton HaiKvay , which proved fatal to no ft-vser than four ol the workmen . The tunnel is about two-thirds of a mile in length , and runs in a straight line from ' " anal-street , l > oneath St . Androw ' s-street and square , l > uke-street . and l ) ublin-street , to the foot of Scotland-street , where it opens into the Mill Haiigh at the Irack of Canon-mills ; . The drift-way of the tunnel , which was abmit six feet square , was all t-oni ] ilpted . except a small barrier about midway , near the foot of Duke-street , ln order to remove this

      an < l to let off the water which was known to have accumulated in the upper portion of the mine , workmen have Ih'c )' . employed tor upwards of a week past . It appears , however , that in consequence of some inaccuracy in runniiiij the drift-mines of the tunnel , the southern aud northern portions pa . ssed en eh other at the point where they should have met : and hence the liillieulty of joining them , the men not being au .-: rc of this deviation . On Thursday they began to have an idea that the two were not exactly opposite , frnni seeing several small jets of water issuing from iiic vesi -ide of the mine ; and sonic alarm was even : ' . \< -r , entertained by the / workmen that they would In * u . «> d . » d . ' 1 lie How from tbi ~ source , however , soon sr . ' ij . pd . : ind thoiiit'ii j > roee »' ile < l wilb the work , which

      is i-sirried on without intermission day and nii . ht , one > et uf men bein < : reliove « l every few hours by another . Win-n the accident occun-ed ( which was at about a iiuarter past six o ' clock ) , the two night shiftmen , . iobji Blair ami -lames Philips , were still working , tbnnjrh it was beyond the time they ought to have be * -: ; relieved , the other t « o havinsr , fortunately for thuiiisplve . s been rather lat-M than usual in coimn-: to their work that morning . Mr . Peter Mitchell , brother of one of the contractors , and Mr . T . Erskine , ir . iuser , had also just gone down to see how the work was gettinir on . The former went down from mere curiosity . J low the nccidez-r occurred is not known , as all who " were in the tunnel at the moment have

      perished : but it is supposed that the water which had accumulated in the upper mine , had suddenly broken in upon them , and swept them all away in the torrent . The first notice which was uiven to those above the ground that something had gone wrong , was by a boy named Jack , who had just gone down the shaft in Dublin-street ( about seventy / yards below where the barrier was ) , and -who , hearing a fearful rumbling noise , b'ke thunder , and suspecting that the water had burst , instantly gave the signal to be pulled up , which was promptly obeyed , and he reached the surface just in time to escape in safety , for in a moment afterwards the water came rushing up the shaft with tremendous violence , striking the roof of the

      Untitled Article

      wooden shed which covers the opening , and rushing down the street . This shaft is about sixty feet deep . Nor was this all ; for in another moment a second rush of water was seen forcing its way upwards through the street , about one hundred and fifty yards further down , and flooding the area of the shop occupied by Mr . D . Bruce , spirit-dealer there . At this spot there had formerly been a shaft sunk , which was afterwards covered up * which accounts . for the water coming up in that direction . Of course the alarm created by these frightful indications was very great .

      Assistance , however , was soon procured , and a number of men sent down the shaft to find the bodies of their comi-ades , for there was no doubt of their unfortunate fate . The bodies of Thomas Enskine and John Blair were soon discovered near the bottom of the shaft , the one holding the other by the foot ; but the other tvyo were not found till between two and four o ' clock in the afternoon , having been ( carried much further down . They were all married men , in the prime of life , and have left wives arid families to lament their untimely loss . — . Sroffliia /* .

      Foi'B Lives Lost . —Another of those deplorable and lamentable occurrences which too frequently accompany mining operations , and characterize the critical and dangerous position of that class of individuals who labour to gain theiv daily bread in this section ^ of national industry , happened at Beaufort Iron Works , in oik- of the mine quarries , or patches , on Tuesday afternoon , by which the . lives of four pel-sons were sacrificed . The unfortunate party were at that time engaged in pushing up therubbish tram , for the purpose of clearing the remains of a " fall , " when a piw o f ground , from the strata , lying eight yards above , unexpectedly gave w . w , aud toll

      directly on them , literally crushing nearly every bone in their bodies , aivl , in a moment , depriving them of lid " . A strict enquiry has been made , so as to ascertain whether this serious event was occasioned by any negligence on the part of the master watchman , and from " which it appears then' is not the slightest blame attributable to him , but that it has been the result of pure accident . The ground was apparently safe , and there was not the slightest indication of danger . The names of the deceased are Isaac . lames , ageil eighteen , Cecilia James , eight ecu ( brother and sister ) ; < liarles l'enshain , twenty-one ; and Margaret -Davit's , eighteen . — . iloiitnoiiiJu'Ju ' M , rliu .

      Attempt to Poison . —On Thursday last , John Wall , of Oadby ; framework knitter , aged twentyfive , was examined before Mr . J . Hodgson , on -a charge of attempting to kill his sister , mother , ami brother , by mixing a quantity of arsenic in sugar , and administering sonic to tlieni . It appears that on the morning of the litth ult ., about an hour after the family hud taken breakfast , they were seized with violent sickness , which continued during that day and part of the next , and at length they became so greatly alarmed , that Mr . Beasley , surgeon , was called in , and he immediately discovered that thev

      were suffering from the effects of poison . The sugar which remained had been made away with . The prisoner ' s brother and sister are partially recovered , but his mother still remains in a very dangerous stute , and but little hopes are entertained of her recovery . The only motive that can be assigned for the perpetration of so diabolical-an offence is , that the prisoner wished to get possession of a sum of money to which he and his brother and sister were entitled on the death of their mother . He was remanded to iMonduy ( yesterday ) , for further examination . —Leicester Mcrcnrt / .

      The Goiigon Steam-sloop . —Extract of a letter from an ofb ' cer on board her Majesty's steamer Gorgon , dated Monte Video , Sept . 22 , 184 * 4 : — " We are still on the beach , although not quito . a fixture hero , as wo have moved the ship twenty-one inches , and are as confident and persevering a . s ever , though 1 cannot say when we shall get off , vet I feel sure that before long we shall succeed .

' I am not aware that a similar attempt to recover so large a vessel from off a dead lee shore so deeply imbedded in sand has ever been attempted . The French got a frigate on shore in th Ls river some few years njjo , and after five mouths' labour they were about to give her up , when the water rose unexpectedly and floated her oil '; but I fancy her position was very different from ours .

The demand both for goods and yarn yesterday was limited ; and , in some few cases , . slight reductions of price were submitted to . liciiei-jilly , however , spiimei-s and manufacturers are so bare of stock , that they show no inclination to relax in their demands .

      itot hualk Flaxnel Market , Dec . 2 . —There has been very little change in the piece market to-day . I'he demand still continues limited , and prices low . in the-wool market the manufacturers purchase very sparingly , at last week ' s prices . Manchester Corn Market . —Saturday , Nov . 30 . —The Hour trade has continued in a state of the greatest inactivity throughout the week , the bakers and dealers refraining from purchasing more than barely suffices for the supply of their immediate necessities , and any alteration in prices has been in

      favour of the buyer . For oats the demand has been moderate , without alteration in value ; but oatmeal has met a steady sale at fully previous rates . At our market , this morning , there was very little passing in any description of wiieat , and all but the choicest qualities might have been purchased at lower prices . for tlour tlie demand was likewise on the most limited scale , but in the absence of transactions to guide us , we cannot ; ilter our quotations . Oats and oatmeal were in steady request , and sold on rather higher terms . The inquiry for beans was languid , at barely the previous currency .

      . Liverpool Cokn Market , Mo . xdav , Due . 2 . — During the past week we have had fair supplies of grain , tiour and oatmeal from Ireland , and within the hi . st three days se-wral cargoes of barley have arrived round land . The only change in the rates of duty on foreign produce , is a decline of ls . per quarter on barley , namely , to 3 s . per quarter . The demand for wheat in this market has continued to be almost confined to the immediate locality : holders of foreign , ' however , have shown no disposition to give way in price , but Irish new has been sold at a decline

      of Id . to 2 d . per bushel from the rates of Tuesday , i- 'iour lias met a dull sale , aud home manufacture must be noted fully Js . per sack cheaper , whilst Canadian lias barely sustained previous rates .

New oats were in moderate supply , and commanded an advance of ls . per quarter : but no alteration can lie quoted in the value of old samples . Rye met very little attention . Malt was looking rather lower ! lieans and peas remained without change . The arrivals of flour are extremely large , and our millers having reduced their prices , Norfolk and Suffolk qualities could not be disposed of , to any extent , except at a reduction of ls . per sack .
