^ LuBttrxiES of Absestkb Debtors . —On Saturday last , in the Lord Mayor ' s Cuurt , an attachment w « s laid on a pension held by an ex-officer of the Hon . Eat India Company , who resided abroad , bnt had left a power of attorney with a firm in the City to receive the money and transmit it to him . The Rec « der held that that was such a possession of property in the City that it could be taken on an attachment This process of attachment is peculiar to the City of -Xtradon . SlXKIKG OP IHB AST SlEAM-B » A * AT LOXDOS BRIDGE . •—On Sunday at noon , the Ant steam-boat , which plies from the Adelphi Tier to London Bridge , left the Brat-named place with a large number of passengers , proceeded down the river as far as Blsc ' sfriaM Bridge , and was passing under one of the arches when she dragged over aheap of stones placed in the bed of tie river to strengthen the piers of the faulty arches , when some portion of the bottom of the vessel gare way and the water entered . The boat was ran alongside the dummy at LonJon-bridge Pier , and the passengers were all then enabled to land in safety . The water in the hold having accamu ' ated the vessel sank .
Fire is Kixgslind-hoad —On Sunday morning , a fire broke oat in the premises of Messrs . Freen and Co ., cement and plaster of Paris merchants , situate No . 3 Wharf , Regent ' s canal , Kingsland-rosd . The engines promptly rrmed , bnt the whole of the factory was destroyed , and part of the roof burnt off the oven-houses , before the fire could be extinguished . The loss , at a moderate calculation , will reach some tbonsand pounds , for , independeat of the destruction of the factory and the stock in trade therein , the steam machinery has been rendered comparatively worthiest by the action of the flames . The origin of the misfortune is enveloped in mystery . Fortunately the sufferers were partially insured .
Ths CoaviuxEiR OasiBBS . —Thia new omnibus , the contrivance of Mr . William Charles Scott , is being subjected to a few days " private view" at the factory of Mr . Tucker , in the New Kent-road . The speciality of this omnibus is the establishment of divisions for each passenger , so that every one may have his proper share of room ; while the backs are hollowed out to admit of more convenient and comfortable sitting . The same number of persons can be accommodated in ; the plan of Mr , Scott ' s as in the omnibuses in ordinary use . There are other minor improvements , such as a m ? -. us of communication with the conductor , common to each passenger ; a better mode of ascending the roof , Ac . This omnibus therefore has obviously several very desirable fea . jres of novelty , and we should not be surprised to find it brought into general use , presuming there are no economical considerations to contend with in the questions of cost and . production .

Ho had previously many tunes protested his inuocenco of the crime for which he was sentenced to transportation , and from some subsequent inquiries , there is reason to believe that one of the witnesses who spoke to the prisoner ' s identity may posBibly have been mistaken . The jury returned a verdict of " Temporary Insanity "
, The Robbebt . at Doter Bt a TosTEB . —The police officer has returned from the pursuit of Charles Drebea , the touter , who recently decamped from Dover with a trunk containing valuable property and bills , together with £ 180 in bank notes belonging to a Mexican gentleman , named Roche . Jenkinson traced the fugitive from Calais to Ghent , and from thence to Cologne and Aix-la-Chapelle , on the borders of Germany . At this latter place the delinquent left his passport to be forwarded after him into Germany . The officer anticipating that Drebes would proceed to Ebberfield , where his father resided , went thither , and found that the father was a highly
respectable inhabitant , and ascertained that he had not made his appearance there , nor watt he likely to do so , as punishment of death awaited him if taken , for the crime of desertion from the Prussian army , in which he was an ensign . DasseHorf was aUo visited by the officer , but unsuccessfully . He however heard that the fellow had gone to Hamburg , and traced him thither , where , unfortunately , he could not apprehend him . that being a free city . " Thus brought to a stand-still , Jeukinson left full particulars of Drebes , and the circumstances connected with the robbery , with the British consuls at the various towns , so as to ensure bis capture , if he made his appearance subsequently . —Maiditone Gazette .
Fbaudb upon Emigrants at Liverpool , —On Tuesday Pa * trick Collen was committed by the "Liverpool magistrates for defrauding a poor emigrant . The prisoner Cullen had extorted the sum of 15 s . from an emigrant for articles which he said would be required on the voyage to America- The sum originally required was 27 s ., but finding his victim had no more than 15 s ., he , apparently with reluctance , " made him up " a parcel ef twe / ui things , the whole of which ] it is needless to say , were entirely worthless . Among other things was some stuff described as soap which would wash either in salt water or fresh , but which was compounded solely of some earthy matter and common salt . A committee of the town council is engaged in devising measures for effectually crush , ing these practices .
The Late Coluert . Explosion at Ringlet . —The adjourned inquest on the bodies of the sufferers at Ringley was resumed last week , when the jury returned a verdict of •* Accidental Death , " coupled with a recommendation that the sucgestionB of Mr . Wynne should be at once oarried into effect , —censuring the colliers for working with naked candles , and attributing neglect of duty to the engineer in omitting to keep the water , sufficiently low . Mr . Rushton intimated that the recommendation of Mr . Wynne had been already carried out as far as possible , and would be completed without delay . Suspected Mdbdsr at Holme . —The body of a young man named Thomas Greenup was discovered on the 6 th inst ., under circumstances which gave strong ground to suspect that he had come to his death by means of violence .
The deceased , who had formerly resided at Bentham , where he worked in the flax mills of Messrs . Roughsedge , was a pewon of weak intellect , and was in a state of great poverty ; and what motive can have existed to the commission of so foul a deed is , indeed , a mystery . As yet not the slightest suspicion attaches 'to a single individual , nor is ifc known that any individual was in company with him after he had been shown the way to the Cinder Ovens where he proposed to sleep for the night . The evidenoe of Mr . Noble , snrgeon , as to the marks of violence on hie person , and the circumstances deposed to by another of tbe witnesses that he had been deprived of a portion of his clothing , leave it beyond doubt that he had not died a natural death . An inquest was held the same afternoon when the jmy returned a verdict of" Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown . "
Collision with the Harbinger ( Cape ) Screw Steaiiship . —Gbavesesd . —On Tuesday evening a disastrous col . lision took place on the river , nearly abreast of Sorthfleef between the Harbinger steamship , and a coal-laden bri p called the Resolution , which ended in the foundering of the latter and the casting of tho steamer for several hours asbore . The Harbinger in the course of the afternoon left the East India Docks at Blackwall , and proceeded down the river on her way to Plymouth , which port she is announced to leave on the 15 th inst . with the Cape of Good Hope mails . She had on board two very experienced pilots and it would appear that on dusk setting in she hoisted the usual lights , in nccordanee with the Admiralty reeulation
ana auoptea other precautions against accident On etonming through , the Reach , in a line * ith Xorthflee ' fc and approaohing the town , she found a crowd of colliers which had just arrived with the northerly wind . In tryine to pick her way , she struck the brig Resolution , which was at anchor in about mid-channel , and is stated to have been deeply laden , and was forced so heavily asjainst her by the ebbing tide that the brig ' s hull yielded to the pressure , and Bhe rapidly went down in deep water The most prompt attention was directed to the preservai tion of the brig ' s crew , and several boats , whic h were hanging to tbe stern of the Harbinger , put off to their aid . The whole of them were rescued . After the collision , Ihe Harbinger dropped her anchor , but unfortunately , m swinging round , tailed ashore , and all efforts at the time failed in getting her off . She remained in that position until early on Wednesday morning , when the tide having flowed , she floated , and was brought , »!
abreast of this place . It was then ascertained that she had sustained no damage except to a boat and a light spar , and she re-started for Plymouth .

THE BURSTING OF THE HOLMFIRTE RESERVOIR . HoimfiMH , Saturday ,- —Qrtat numbttB of persons hate bean engaged in the river Holme and on its banks during the whole of to-day , searching for the- bodies of tbe dead , and i » recovering the wreok of property oarried away by the inundation of Thursday , caused by the bursting of the Bilberry Reservoir . In addition to upwards of sixty bodies discovered up to yesterday , five have been found to-day . A cash-box , containing £ 500 , hag been also picked out of the debris thrown together in the traok of the destructive torrent . The magistrates met , and determined to open subscriptions , and men were placed in the streets with boxes to collect subscriptions from strangers . By thU mfijinn unwards of £ 50 , was raised towards relieving the
wants of the poor creatures deprived of house , home , and property by this terrible occurrence . '' A quantity of bedding and clothing has also baen distributed . The labour of great numbers of workmen for three day s has done little towards removing the accumulated wreck of property even in this town , in the bed of the river and on its banks , and In tha streets . .,,,,,, ' .,,. The following persona have perished , but their bodies have not been ' . found : —Jano Ashall , aged two years ; two daughters of Mrg . Bailey Joseph Brook : Mary Oroasland , nineteen ; Martha Crossland , fifteen ; Poster Crossland , nine ; Joseph Charlesworth , one ; Hamer Cbarlesworth , nine ; Mrs . Hartley and two children ; Amelia Kay and husband ; Joseph Marsdeu , eighteen ; Jobn and James
Charlesworth , seven and twelve years old ; James Dodd : Ann Beamont , twelve ; Matthew Fearnea , and wife and child ; Samuel Greenwood , forfcy-Bix ; Mary Metteriok , thirty-six ; and Betty , thirty ; Samuel twenty-one ; Alfred , nine ; Abelf eight ; and Joseph , one ; Miss Sandford and Jonathan Sandford ; three of Mr . Shackleton ' s children ; Alfred Woodcroft , thirteen ; Sarah Woodoroft , eleven ; and Alfred Woodcroft , thirteen years old . Some of the lastmentioned are probably those named as not identified before the coroner ' s jury . There are fifty however identified , and , adding those named above , there are eighty-six persons who hare perished by the flood , This IS belietcd to be much short of the actual number , however , Two meetings have been held to commence subscriptions
thi » evening in aid of the distressed . A meeting was held at Huelderefield , when Mr . Brook gave £ 500 ; Mr . Schwann , £ 200 ; and Mr . Williams , £ 100 . Altogether £ 1 , 600 wn 8 subsoribsd before the meeting broke up , The other meeting was at the crown Inn , Holmfirth , where Messrs ; W . and C . Brooks gave £ 200 ; Mr . Joseph Charlesworth , £ 100 : Joshua Moorhouse , £ 100 ; a Friend , par Mr . J . Firth , £ 100 ; and Mr . J . Firth himself . £ 75 ; Mr . Joshua Cttarlesworih , £ 60 ; and altogether £ 1 , 010 was raised here . Considerable sensation was created in the meeting here by a statement that one of the commissioners had prevented the water being drawn off . from another of the reservoirs above the town , considered to be in . a dangerous state ( the Holme Styes Reservoir ) , to the extent which had been
ordered by a committee of which this person was a member . The drawer in charge of tho reservoir was oalled in , and stated that he had drawn off the water dowa to fortyeix feet in depth ( it had been seventy-five , ) when he was interfered with , though the committee had ordered him to draw the water of to forty feet . The meeting expressed great indignation , and the magistrates present ordered the drawer to reduce the water to forty feet , and sent a policeman with him to see that no authority was interposed from another quarter . The inquest was adjouraed to Wednesday week , after the bodies had been identified . Up to Sunday morning the whole of the sixty-eight bodies lying at the publio-houses in and about Holmfirth had been identified except three , and certificates were
is-Bued that morning by the coroner to enable their friends and relatives to inter them . A great portion of the poorer sufferers were members of the Druid ' s , Oddfellows ' , and other friendly societies , the offioers of whioh , with feelings highly creditable to them , busied themselves , where rela « tives did not come forward to own bodies , in searching them out from distant towns ,, and paying them the sums for whioh the societies were liable in cases of death , either of the members or the children of members , for funeral money . The town presented a very mournful soene during the whole of Sunday , that day having been fixed for the interment of nearly the whole of the dead . About sixty were removed for interment at different periods of the day , not many of them in the town , but mostly in the villages the
on adjoining hills or up the valley . Seven bodies were taken for interment to Holm Briggs Church , but tbe graves had got filled with water during the night , and the onurehyard , being one whioh the flood had swept over , was altogether in suoh a pitiable state of devastation and disorder , from the disturbance of graves , the destruction of the yard walls , and other damage , that it was found expedient to place the bodies in a temporary resting place in the ohuroh itself for some weeks to come . It is calculated by practical men that , apart from positive damage , notions than 2 , 000 people will be deprived of their usual mode of existenc , together with those depenent upon them , and , unless rendered relief , must sufter moBt painful want . On MondaV fhrpfi nf . hnt * hnriina nna ftinf nf a ni » l «^ J
the two others the bodies of youths , were discovered . The girl was found in a milldam at Holmfirth ; the two other bodies were picked up at Dalton , further down the river . They have not yet been identified . A curious oircumstance occurred in the identification of the bodies of the deceased on Saturday . When the jury viBited the bodies lying at Bury Brow , a little intelligent girl , daughter of Sydney Hartley , came forward to identify an infant as the body of her sister Ellen . She was asked how she knew it , and replied , beoause it was " calf-licked , " like herself—pointing to a peculiarity of the hair on the forehead—so denominated m Yorkshire . Tho coroner took her deposition , but afterwards the same child was olaimed by a man named Bailey as hii daughter , and he ultimately obtained possession of the corpse , and interred it . The little girl ' s narrative of the
horrors of Thursday night ia a distressing picture of such a scene . She Btatea that her mother , Mrs . Hartley , had heard on Wednesday night that the reservoir was likely to burst , and resolved not to go to bed . She , however , put hev family of eight children to bed , and sat up to await the issue , hoping to get sufficient waraing to enable all to escape , if the report should prove correot . She sat up until one o ' clock on Thursday morning , and then went to bed . The alarm reached almost immediately she had retired to rest . The girl atatss that the water burst upon them before they could get out of the chamber , and when her mother found they could not esoape , she held up her infant child above the water outside the window , hoping to save it , but finding the front of the house giving way aho turned and bade her family farewell , and was swept away with the babe in the " foaming torrent . So
aiso perisned the uther and four other children ; but this httle creature , with two sisters and the apprentice boy , who had also been sleeping in the house , being suddenly floated up to a part of the roof which yat remained , caught hold of -the rafters and clung to them . When the flood began to abate , the apprentice John Deavnley , got out upon tho roof , and assisted the three girls to do th ! same Here they remained at least twenty minutes . He afterr / iTivn l hT by one int the P 0 ^™ of Holmnrth Mill which had escaped destruction , where , in their night clothes , standing up to their knees in mud , they were exposed to the inclemency of the ni ght air and to the fall , ing rain .

The lower part of the city of Hereford near the river has be » n-flooded so that theinhabitants were driven to their upper rooms , and ferry boats
were established in the streets . So great a flood has not been known since 1795 , and the river is covered with fragments of wreck . On the Severn , at Gloucester and Tewkesbury , the flood rose in one hour eighteen inches upon tho meadows .

FOREIGN REFUGFES IN ENGLAND . A oircular despatch , dated Jan . 13 , addressed by Earl Granville to her Majesty ' s Ministers at Viouna and St . Petersburg , and her Majesty ' s Charge * d'Affaires at Paris and Frankfort , has just been presented , with other papers on the same subjeot , to both Houses of Parliament . After referring to the representations made by tbe Foreign Powers on the subject , our Foreign Minister says : —¦ "By the existing law of Great Britain foreigners have the unrestricted right of entrance and residence in tnia country ; and while they remain in it , are equally with British subjects , under the protection of the law ; nor can they be punished , except for an offence against the law , and under tho sentence of the ordinary tribunals of justice , after a publio trial , and on a conviction founded on evidence given in open court . No foreigner , ats such , can be sent out of this oountry by the executive government , excep t persons removed by virtue of treaties with other States , confirmed by act of parliament , for the mutual surrender of criminal nffendarH . "
Lord Granville then refers to the liabilities of subjects of this or any other state on English ground , being concerned in levying war on any state at amity with Great Britain ; and also the Alien Act , regarded , he says , with jealous ; by the people of this country . He then observes that it is obvious that the hospitality rendered to foreigners could not be go freely given if it were not go widely extended . Lord Granville then proceeds as follows : — "If a discretionary power of removing foreigners were vested in the crown , appeals would be constantly made by the dominant party in foreign countries for the expulsion of their politioal opponents who might have taken refuge in Great Britain . Monarchical governments might object to Republican refugees , and Republican governments mitjht object to Royalist refugees ; and it would be difficult to defend such hospitality , which would then be founded upon favour , and not upon equal laws .
" It is the earnest wish of her Majesty ' s government to promote as far as in their power the peace , order , and prosperity of every country with which they are in friendly alliance ; but they do not think that any ground exists whioh would justify them , on the present occasion , m applying to the Legislature for any extraordinary , or further powers in reference to foreigners resident in England , and that they have no reason to doubt that this opinion is Bbared both by the parliament and the public of this country . " With reference to the intimation that exceptional mea .
sures of precaution may be taken against British subjects travelling abroad , her Majesty ' s government cannot complain if , while insurrection ig raging , or its flame is scarcely extinguished , foreign governments Bhould take precautions against suspected English travellers . " " . Her Majesty ' s government adheres to the principle laid down by Visoount Palmerston in his note of the 30 th of September , 1848 , to the United States' envoy at this court , in relation to certain oitiiens of the United States , who had come direct thenoe to Ireland , then in a state of partial insurrection . r
" Lord Palmerston did not in that note a » k for any change m tho American laws , and he expressly forebore to preis the President of the United States with representationa against the offenders , but merely gaid that those who visited a oountry in a state of insurrection must take . their ohance like persons whom curiosity mi ght lead into a field ot battle ; and that the American government must not take it amiss if citizens of the United States who visited Ireland at that time were involved In the consequences of measures aimed at men of a different description . The measures , however , to which he alluded , were taken with reference only to persons to whom , under the peculiar ciroumstanoes of the moment , suspicion attached . But it would be m the highest degree unju 3 t and unworthy of the miBnienea
e onaracter of any European government , and wholly unwarranted by the course pursued by the British government on that occasion to put vexatious impediments in the way of unoffending English travellers , by way « to ¦ on the acts ° f foreign refugees in England . While , however , her Majesty ' s government cannot consent , at the request of foreign governments , to propose a change in the laws of England , they would not only regret , but would highly condemn , any attempt on the part of toreign refugees in England to excite insurrection against tho governments of their respective countries . Such conduct would bo considered by nor Majesty ' s government a 3 a flagrant breach of the hospitality which those persons enjoy . ¦
The attention of her Majesty ' s government will contin « e to U directed to the proceedings of suspected foreign refugees tn this country , and they will endeavour by every legal !? S' ° P rove . nt them from abusing the hospitality , so liberally accorded to them by the British laws to thepreiuwSlSSin " ° " nment 8 in ^^ y andaLnco
