Mr . D . then called their attention to the snppdrt of the Northern and Evening Stars , and ths necessity of supporting them and endeavonring to increase their circolation ; and state ** that if each loca ^ lity wovld take five Evening Stars per day , that it would live and be a powerful engine in the Chartist movement , and as to the great Northern luminary , they all as well as him knew its v » orth , and knowing , appreciated it . it was true that it sometimes grieved them , bnt this fact ought to be borne in mind , it had never deceived them it was always found to be ri « ht in the tnd .

' s , Allerto . i Main Colliery . — On Saturday last , about noon , iu consequence of the inattention and carelessness of the engine man neglecting to shut off the steam and furnish a gufficifut supply of water to the boiler , a most awful explosion took place , and the boilor was lifted off its seat and carried into the air to the supposed height of 200 yards , and fell in an adjoining field , nearly 100 yards from its original place . Iron aad elates , bricks and stones fisw about in all directions , and covered the yard , orchard , and adjoining fields for a distance of 250 yards . Tho windows and doors of the workshops , cottages , and counting-house were all blown in and shattered to pieces , aud what is
more remarkable , a shower of bricks , iron , and stones , we . e thrown through one of the cottage windows , across thu house in a slanting direction , where the family were seated in an opposite comer at dinner ; the iu mates were knocked dowu and bruised , the clock-case and the cupboard with its contents were destroyed . The most dreadful part of the affair is , the serious injury dono to two of tho colliers who were in tho yard , ( if the accident had occurred a quarter of an hour sooner , four teen m / .-u might have been destroyed as they were leaving their work . ) One old man of the name of Firth , had his thigh broken by some of the missiles from the boiler , and was conveyed to his house
aud immediately attended by the surgeon , but it is feared ho will be tinablo to work any more . Another man had his skull dread ully fracaired , and was otherwise mangled in a shocking manner , but it is hoped he will recover , and ba able again to attend his work—he has a family of six children . Tne negligent engine man had a narrow escape , being nearly crashed by the falling materials , but wonderful to relate he is uninjured . Although this lamentable accident will occasion a temporary stoppage of Messrg . J . Bower and C . o's coal works , still , in conm queuce of having an extra boiler , which i- < only displaced and removed from its seat by the explosion , they will be able to resume working the cillicry iu a few days . The damage is estimated at
£ 500 . FxTENSiVE Felony . —In the course of Sunday lafat , it was extensively aunounced by handbills throughout ihis town , ihat a clerk in tho office of a resptctable solicitors' firm ( Messrs . Ward and Son ) , hud absconded , having previously possessed himself of cash to a considerable amount , including nine Ban k of England no es of £ * 20 each , and a large Bum in gold . It appears tnat he had gone off in the early part of ihe previous week either on pleasure or on business , and the loss of money was not discovered
until Saturday evening . The notes are numbered from 8458 to 0466 inclusive . The name of the delinquent is Henry Lmeham ; he is married and has two children ; and is described as being about thirty years of age , of middle stature , stiffly built , with light brown hair , and sallow complexion . He vras last heard of at Biimingham . A reward of £ 30 is offen d for his apprehension , and a further reward of j £ 20 on his conviction , ' but hitherto we have not heard that any clue has been obtained of hi 3 " whereabout .

Wilson , who lost his eye on the occasion , had procured " a little soda or potash , which would readily dissolve in water , or some soap boiler's fresh lees , and . applied , it , or washed with this solution wherever the vitriol appeared , no injury whatever would have occurred to his eye , or any part of his person , or bis cothes .

Ihe sufferer was James S&vagti , a robust old man , of the age of seventy years , wha had been nearly half that time m the employ of ono master , Mr . Webb , of Lee , and iu vmose service he continued till the day of his death . The particui&is were , that the deceased and his three sous attended a shoouug-maich at a beer-shop , at a place called Tootliill , near B ^ msey , on Moaday , the 2 Cih of December , when some dispute arose , and a

opposite room . Unfortunately , between six and seven o ' clock in ihe evening , a number of the Lee men went from 'foothill to ABhficld , where they came in collision with the other party , and a tremendous aff / ay took place in the tap-room for about a quarter of an hour , at the couclusion of which the deceased was carried out of doors in a state of insensibility , from which he never recovered , and early on the Wednesday morning , about 36 hours after the termination of the affray , he breathed his last . A highly respectable jury , consisting of fourteen of the principal inhabitants of Romsey , assembled as the Fox Inn in that town on the following morning , before Mr .

Death op a Singular Character . —On Wedneaday , the old 4 * Gipsy Tinker , " of Clerkenwell parish , and who has long been noticed as a most eccentric character , was interred in the church-yard of St . James , Clerkenwell . He was followed to his last resting p lace by no less than seventeen couple ( according to his wish ) , and to whom several small legacies were left . His name was Lovell , and he had long rented an obscure tenement in' Lamb and Flag Court , at the back of the Sessions House , Cleikenwdl Green ; and although in possession of nearly 1 , 000 guineas , hoarded in an old flower pot ,
ho yet followed up tho avocation of a perambulating tinker , jbegging alm 3 as he took his . usual rounds , with the cry of ' pjor old man—poor old tinker . " His ago { was upwards of ninety , and he is said to have lived ttie whole of his long rambling existence in the same manner . As an old descendant of the Gitanosi or wandering gipsies , this poor old remnant of numsaity may bo said to have formed the last sample ; at all evsnts , there is nothing about town to bo remembered like this most singular being . jThtre are eight clildren left to share the property .

Fashions for January . —The waistcoats after Christmas are expected to be full , but the pockets era usually empty . Tnere was considerable lightness in tho arrangements for the head , especially in the streets on boxing night , and much spirit was evident a ' mong those who moved in thoir ownpeculiar circles . In some instances the coat was ^ Blight down horizontally , so as to lie level with the pavement , and the hat was worn a good deal off tho head , while the watch and pocket handkerchief werr < Icftjcomplotely degage . The coats , which were cut away a good deal last year , are not now seen , tho wearers having cut away themselves ; and in boots th < ra is nothing new , those of last year having had such a run that it is impossible to come up with them .

STATE OF THE NOTTINGHAM TRADE . It is somewhat painful to state , that the principal manufacturer eueaj ; ed in the silk blond trade , b 3 S stopped most of his frames worked by the hand ; but tho rotary frames that are tended by apprentices are still going , having a few men to superintend them . We understand that pome small number of hand frames are yet retained , but at a reduction of one-sixth of the gross wages , which is one third of tbe price paid three years since , and scarcely one-tenth of what has been heretofore pafd in this branch . Tho extreme cheapness of this article , it is alleged , has caused it to go out of fa-hion , tho price Daid for workmen being about a halfpenny per square yard .
Tne bobbin net branch is in much the eamo state that it has been in for some weeks past . New fancy patterns are > clling freely at fair prices ; old pattern * are those that are not of the first style , and are dull of sale , though we bflieve tbat littlo or no stock is making ; indeed those days in fanry net seem to be pa-t , rh <; machine owners generally acttnt , ' uDon the French system of " no longer sell , no longer make . " The plain bobbin net power factories are gradually filling with boys , the owners hoping that the difference of the wages may yield tht m a profit ; in short , every expedient is tried to prop np this falling description of machinery , which it was conceived in 1832 ana 1833 would supersede all others ; hundreds of Levers and other machines , having since that period been sold for old iron . No trade has suffered so much as the bobbin net , from one description of machinery superseding another , since twist and plau net were first made at Croydon and Lough borough .
The gilt glove branch is not by any mpans improved , though a many fancy articles have been introduced , principally from the truck machine , which in imitation of the Leicester trade , the hands are pajiug some attention to . The silk knotted branch , notwithstanding the hopes from Spain is unimproved with the exception of the low priced or < 5 e . r . The cut-up branch is somewhat better in demand , but not so to bu in want of hands ; in many instances the charges made to the workmen amount to half the gTo « s ware . * , whih . t a man must make ten dczen of FtGckings per wrek to earn a bare maintenance . We believe that the cotton wrought hose branch is a shade better in some of the villages . A report ha * been in Circulation of large orders from China , but we cannot trace it to auy authentic source ^
The fancy cotton hos" branch , of the finest qualities . is the most healthy in the trade , tha hands being tolerably employed , at fair wages . The sijk branch , of the same description , haa been for a long time in a depressed state .
