DREADFUL DISASTER AT SEA . ( From the Waterford Mirror . ) Intpll : g « -nce of the following disa st er , attended , there is every reason to fear , with the loss of the crew of the vessel run down , with the exception of one man , who is the writer of the subjoined statement , reached this city on Saturday . It appears that the brig Dundonald , of Troon , D . M'Nichol , master , wh ch sailed from this port on Tuesday evening for Troon , laden with ballast , ca m e , shortly after her departure , in contact with the schooner Kirby , laden with slates from Duddon , a small seaport on the borders of Lancashire and Cumberland . The oniy particulars that we have learned are contained in the letter at foot , written by one of the crew otthe Kirby , which letter ho banded to the pilot authorities at Passage of Waterford , where he arrived in the Maid of Mostyn . It is to be remarked that the letter is not signed with the writer ' s
name . The Duodondald took hf r departure from Hook Tower at eight o ' clock en Tuesday evening , and her collision with the Kirby occurred about three hours after , and about sixteen miles frmn the Hook . We learn that the ni ^ ht was rather cloudy , but that the sea was smooth with a light braz 3 . While we anxiously await some further intelligence , and in particular the version of the occurrence to be given by the Dundonald , we think it appears at least somewhat probable , from the following letter , that the Kirby and the remainder of the crew went down : — " This is to certify that the schooner Kirby of Duddon , was bound on her passage from Duddon to Youghal , with a cargo of slates , and on Tuesday ,
October 11 , betwixt the hours of ten and twelve p . m ., the brig Dundonald , of Troon , and the said sch o one r , got entangled with one another about a mile to ; h \ - southward of the Connibegs Light-ship , when the master of the schooner called out to the brig , ' You will run us down f they said , ' Put your helm down , ' and immediately the ves-Eel struck , when our master called out , 'She is going down—run—ruD , save yourselves if yon can ! ' With that I left the helm , and ran forward , and got hold of the brig ' s boh ^ tay along with my shipmate , but I know not whether he went overboard or not . There was one of the brig ' s crew as-sisted me in getting over the bows . When 1 got on deck I heard my master say , ' Oh , dear ,
Captain , stand by us ! and he gave him no answer , but was giving orders to his men about his jibboo m , for it was carried away . I kept looking towards the schooner , and as near as I can calculate I saw her about twenty minutes , and the laat words I hea r d m y c a pt a i n say w e r e , ' Oh , my dear wife ! ' I went to the captain of the brig , and said , ' You would better staad towards her ; ' a n d h e sad , ' What good can I do ? Let us ^ et our own jibboom in . ' I wanted him to pnt me on board the light-ship , but ho would not do it , and I remained on board her till Thursday , the 13 th , when I saw a schooner standing in for Tuskar Light . I asked the captain if he would allow his men to pull me a-board of the schooner , and he said it was a day ' s work , she was so
far off ; and two of the men said they would go , and he said ' Very well ; call the hands up ; ' so we lowered the boat and pulled towards the schooner , and made signal to her , and she hove to until we came up to her . w hic h we f ound t o be t h e M aid of Mestjn , ' ' aptain Eawards , bound for Ros-=, and I asked a passage from him , and he took me on board . It was three p . m . then . She was about , 6 even mileB to the ENE . of Tuskar Light . " We have not learned th « name of the writer of this statement . It appear ; that he was a north of England man , and has gc :: e on to Youghal . in the expectation of finding if the schooner was able to prosecute her voyage . We irusi that the expectation will be realised . Her crew consisted of the master and three men , and it appears that the master ' s wife waB also on board .
Death op Mb . Sebgeant Spankie . —This eminent lawyer , who haB for some days past been suffering greatly , expired on Wednesday morning between six and seven o ' c ock , at his towu residence in Rubeell-square , Bloomsbury . The Learned Sergeant was coup .-rl for the Honorcuble East India and other Companies , an d de s er v ed l y r espec t ed by th e whole bar . Important to Hop Growers . —The Lords of the Treasury have directed that th ^ hop grounds should be assessed for the property and income tax under the general rule applicable to other lands , and not under the special rule contained in Schedule B , No . 8 The assessment iB , therefore , on all hop
plantations to be made at "A . in the pound under Schednle A , and 3 H under Schedule B . The special rule above referred to directed that the assessment under Schedule B should be estimated according to the rules ia Schedule D , and the doty to b e charged in such last-named schedule . A similar allowance was granted under the former Propertytax Act by a Treasury minute of July 15 , 1815 . — Kentish Gazette . Horrid Death . —An inquest was held on Tuf sday last by Mr . Griffith Jones , coroner for the county ef Merioneth , on the bod y of J-- > hn Roberts , lime-burner to Mr . Edward Owen , o f G a r thynba r ed , when it appeared that John Jones had on the morning of
Monday , the 24 th ult ., been m company with the decea s ed , drawing lime from the kiln at Garthissf , and that on his return from breakfast he found John Robercs in the centre of the kiln , plunged up to his knees in the burning lime . He was in an upright position , with hiB hands raised above bis head . The bod y appeared a complete burning mass : and on a chain being passed round the trunk , i t w as d r agged ont , charred to a cinder . A large iron bar , used for poking the lime from the kiln , was resting n ^ ar the decea ? ed , bnt there was no evidence to shew how he had fallen into the kiln . Verdict— " Accidental death . " The deceased was six'y years of age , but had not long taken to the lime business . —Carnarvon Herald .
Dreadful Explosion . —About six o ' clock on Saturday evening a dreadful explosion of gas took place in Bell tireet , Birmingham , near the Market Hall , and consequently in the mest bustling part of the town . The damage was confined to a email shop , which was levelled with the ground . The occupier ot the premises , who is a tailor , is named Skinner . At tht > moment the explos'on took place he was tugged m his business , and was buried in the nr . ns , Irom which he was afierwards rescued by the policemen , in a state of i ; reat exhaustion , and
with several fearful bruises about his head and person , which render it very doubtful whether he will hereafter recover ; indeed , but little hope is given of his lifo . A boy , of the name of Daniel Lnwh-y , was passing at the time , and received a severe blow upon his head and neck . The explosion was caused by the bursting of a gas-pipe in the middle of the street . The gas found its way under ground for several yards , and ultimatel y e n te r ed t he s h op through a fi ?» ure in the floor ; the moment that a light was introduced it caused combustion . The furniture is much burnt and injured .
Eastbodene . —Wreck . —In the rery heavy gal * on Tuesday afternoon , about five o ' cloc k , a l arge barque of 500 tons burden , came ashore on the " Boulder Bank , " between Beachy Head and this place . She , howeve r , lifted over the bank and grounded just opposite the Sea-houses . Happily the hands , consisting of five men and two boyB , w ere saved . It appears that the Jane Lowden sail ng from Miramichi fell in with the unfortunate vessel , ( the Watts of Plymouth , with timber from Quebec ) in the middle of the western ocean ( long 38 £ by chronometer ) water logged , and the crew on the point of abandoning her , and taking refuge on board a brig which had hove-to for the purpose of rendering assistance . This they did ; but the first mate of the Jane Lowden having examined the deserted
ship and found that , notwithstanding there waa a great quantity of water in the hold , she was not altogether unmanageable , volunteered with the assistance of the crew abore enumerated , though the original crew vf&anineteen in number , to attempt to bring her into port ; which bold attempt , after much distress from short provisions and the dangerous state of the craft , they had bo nearly accomplished as to have got her into the Channel , w h en bei n g overtaken by the late gale , she could not be get to answer the helm , and was run ashore as above stated . The mate , Richard Coaker , and his little orew were much exhausted when taken off the wreck . There ean be no doubt that they will—as they ought to do —meet a fitting reward for their gallant and intrepid conduct in attempting such an exploit . — S * ssea Advertixer .

EXTRAOHDINAKT INVESTIGATION . —CHATHAM , NOV . 1 st . —Very considerable Bensation has been created in the town of Chatham , owing to the prosecution of an inquiry for the last four day . " , at the office of the Captain Superintendent of Chatham Dockyard , before Captain Sheriff and his legal adviser ( Mr . Geo . Essell ) , and Ihe director of the dockyard police ( Lieutenant Wise ) . Although the investigation has been strictly private , it appears that it has arisen in consequence of a young man , a sawyer of the yard , named John Swaile , and who resides at New Bromptou , a short distance from the town of Chatham , having been seen by some of the mechanics for the last week in the yard with a handsome watch and g old guard-chain , which , together with some obserin
vations whi ^ h fell from him conversation with some of his brother workmen , created suspicion that all was not right ; and the circumstances coining to the ears of the officers of the yard , a diligrnt inquiry was immediately set on foot . It was soon ascertained that Swaile , the sawyer , had been seen with two Bank of England notes of £ 100 each , and that he had been going to several tradesmen about the place endeavouring to procure change for them About a fortnight ago Swaile went to his landlord , Mr . Death , of Brompton , to pay his rent , when he tendered one of the . £ i 00 notes . Mr . Death felt great surprise that a man of Swaile's descri p ' . ion shfculd have a note of bo much value , and refused to take it . Swaile , after that , applied to two or three tradesmen of Brompton
for change of the note 3 , but could not buooeed ; he therefore went to a silversmith ' s at Chatham , and bought the watch and chain fi * r £ 18 , and there , it is said , succeeded in changing one of the notes in question . The other note , it i& said , he got rid of at Stroud . It is reported tbat Swaile received the bank-notes from a couvict , wkilst in the yard , and who was undergoing his sentence of transportation ; and that providing Swaile succeeded in getting them changed , lie was to have £ 50 for bis trouble . It ia strongly conjectured by the officers of the convict ship Fortitude , that Swaile must havo had the notes in his possession some time , as the convi . it suspected
is one oi' three brothers who was trausported for an extensive robbery , and- ha 3 gone with the laat draught of convicts for the penal seukuienta , and Swaile , ascertaining that fact , brought forth the notes for circulation . Ou Saturday Swaile absented hmselfftom the dock-yard , and upon going to his residence , at New Brompton , the huuse was fouud closed . Swaile has uot beiug since heard of . One of the £ 100 notes , it is stated , wjs paid into tho Rochester Bauk , and transmitted to London . Tno note it is said , is stopped , as one having being stolen . Several witnesses have been examined , aud the evidence , when complete , will be forwarded to thejLords of the Admiralty .
The Late Fire at Liverpool . —We have much satisfaction in aunouncing that the claims on the various insurance offices are nearly all satisfactorily settled . The Liverpool Mail of Wednesday says , " The exteut of these fires , the dtstructiou of merchandise , and the enormous amount of loss sustained , exceed anything of the kind over experienced in this or any other port . Tho immediate cause of tho confiagration remains in perfect obscurity ! but our own conviction iB , that it arose entirely from spontaneous combustion ; and if argument were wanting to support this conviction , it would be the confirmed fact that cotton and oil deposited together will , of itself , from natural causes , ignite—hence we think the disaster . We congratulate the
merchants of Liverpool upon ihe prompt aud immediate settlement of their losses . We may say , from authority , that up to last eveuing , claims to tho amount of £ 355 , 400 had been paid , although it is but this day four weeks since our columns contained an invitation to all sufferers to send in their claims . The amount of property burnt and not protected by insurance is , we are happy to say , but Email—and , fro m ou r observations , we believe tbat the settleraents made by the gentlemen representing tho united companies merested havo been of a satisfactory character ; indeed we must cousra'ulate the companies upon heir choice of representatives in this important tffair . The method adopted of making the
settlement of each claim simultaneous by certificate , reraoveR all rivalry between agents ; and the requiring but one statement of stock held by claimants is a boon to the merchant , inasmuch as all unnecessary exposure of the stock is avoided . We offer our full share of praise , and we are quite sure that the merchants of Liverpool will join us in thanking the companies for the cheerful and prompt manner in which those serious losses have been paid—losses which Bothing but combinations of wealth and capital could combat—and we should do a needless violence to our feelings did we not thus record our sense of the high dignity and reputation of these societies . "

After the cloth was drawn , a variety of songs , recitation ? , &c , were given by tin members of the Loyal Temple , and many brethren in the district , who kindly honoured them with their attendance , and at a late hour separated , highly gratified with the proceedings of the evening .
BRADFORD . —Serious Affrat with the Military and Civil Authorities—On Tuesday evening as two soldiers of the 32 nd , in company with two females , were going through the Bowling Green , some persons near the Sun Inn hallowed after them . This led to an altercation between the soldiers and the party ; the soldiers drew their bayonets and wounded one of the party . The constables were sent for to put an end to the disturba n ce , but on their approach the soldiers fled towards the barracks , behind the George Hotel , when they turned on the constables and wounded several .

Leeds Woollen Markets . —There has been more business done in the Cloth Halls , and a better demand for goods in the warehouses , during the week , than has been the case for some time past . Some orders ( perhaps limited ) have becn executed for the United States , on which the additional duty of twenty per cent , imposed by the American -Tariff , will have to be paid . There is also a little more doing in the wool trade , but prices are very low . Bradford Market , Thursday , Nov . 3 — Wool The business done . during the week is only limited , and that chiefly in Wethers and Alatohings of a full bred description . Hogs are still in slow request , and it is difficult to effect sales of them . The farmers
s t il l c ling to thei r W ools , and the Staplers state that it iB quite impossible to give the present Tates demanded lor them , to meet the current prices of this market . Turn—There is no marked alteration in the demand for Yarns ; tho shippers are raakinjj more inquiries , and probably in a short time , more will be done by them , or they will not be able to ship for tho winter consumption , unless their purchases are made very early . Tho mills still contiuueto be only partially employed , and a great many running only daylight . Piece . —T he de m and .
which is only limited , in still confined to the original manufacture , such as Merinos . Orleans , and other heavy winter goods . In the Fancy trade , there is not a vestige of improvement , and the Manufacturers engaged in that branch are very dispirited , nearly all working short time , with a large proportion of engines idle . It is really becoming imperative for them to act with great caution , and we trust , though the operatives are now suffering great privations by being without work , that i they may be benefitted by an early resumption .
York Corn Market , Oct . 29 . —We are fairly supplied with Grain to day ; and from the improvement noted in Wakefkld yesterday , our farmers have been asking much higher prices ; and though our millers and factors are not keen buyers at the advance , we must quote Wheat Is . to 2 * . pet qr ., and Oats £ d . per stone , higher , and Barley is in demand , at late prices . M alton Corn Market , Oct . 29 th . —The quantity of grain offering to this day's market is moderate . Wheat is Is and in some cases , 2 s per quarter dearer . Barley is in good demand , and for superior qualities Ia per quarter advance is obtained . Oats the turn dearer . Wheat , red , 48 s to 52 * per quarter of 40 stones ; ditto , white , 50 s to 56 s per quarter of 40 etones . Barley , 25 i to 28 a per quarter of 32 stones . Oats 8 d to Id per stone .

Huddersfield Market , Tuesday , Oct 1 st . — Our market ^ his day was not quite so good as laat week , yet a fair quantity of good 3 were sold . The warehouses are not so busy ; great numbers of operatives are unemployed , and it is to be feared they will experience a severe winter . Wools , oils , &o , nominal . Newcastle Corn Market , Oct . 29 . —Owing to a large annual fair held here to-day we had a very short supply of country wheat at market this morning , and the arrivals from the coast being also light , the whole was readily cleared off at an advance of
fully Is . per quarter on the prices of this day se ' nnjght . In foreign Wheat there was rather more doing , but no advance can be noted . Rye is a very dull sale . The arrivals of Barley are not very considerable , but very many of our maltsters have not yet commenced , and , ia consequence , the supply exceeds the demand , and the sale is dull at our quotations . Peas net with more inquiry without any advance in price . Beana are neglected . Malt is a slow sale . We had a very moderate show of Oats today , which were a ready sale at last week ' s prices . Flour is in plentiful supply , and the sale is doll at Is . per sack decline .
State of Trade , —Although there was no material change yesterday , in the demand , and certainly no advance in the prices of goods or yarn , there was , upon the whole , a healthier and steadier feeling in the market than during the two or three preceding weeks . Stocks are still exceedingly light , and many spinners and manufacturers working under contract ; so that prices do not seem likely to be further reduced . —Manchester Guardian of Wednesday . Rochdale Flannel Market , Monday , Octobeb 31 st . —We have had a busy market to-day , and flannels of the finer qualities have a good demand . — Dyed goods have also been eagerly sought after , and the market has been entirely cleared of them by Scotch buyers , who do not often attend this market . Notwithstanding this ready sale , there ia not the least improvement in prices . Wool still remains stationary in price ; and the manufacturers buy very sparingly .
Liverpool Cattle Market , Mondat , Oct . 31 . — We have had a smaller supply of Beasts at the market to-day than last week , and the quality the same as of late , the greater part being superior . Prices about the same . Beef 5 d to 5 ^ d , Mutton 5 d to 6 d per lb . Number of Cattle at market : —Beasts 1801 , Sheep 6 , 053 . Richmond Corn Mabket , Saturday , Ocr . 29 . — We had a very large supply of all kinds of Grain in our market to-day . Wheat sold from' 53 to 6 s 9 d ; Oats 2 s to 3 s 8 J ; Barley 4 s to 5 s 9 A ; Beans 5 s to os 3 d per bushel .
Liverpool Corn Market . —Monday Oct . 31 . —lathe early . part of the week a few small cargoes of Wheat , Oats and Oatmeal , got up from Ireland , but we have since had scarcely any arrivals except steamers , and the week ' s imports of these articles are comprised iu 2416 qrs ., 4584 qrs ., and 5094 loads respectively ; 4 , 447 barrels of Flour are reported from Canada ; the receipts otherwise are of trifling amount . Since the date of oar last report the trade generally has exhibited a firmer aspect than for some time previous . On Tuesday holders of foreign Wheat demanded an advance of 3 d per bushel , which was paid on a moderate amount of business , and has
been fully maintained . Flour has also brought rather more money ; United States 26 s 6 d to 28 s ; Canadian 25 s 6 d to 26 s 6 d per brl . The market , during the greater part of the week , has been almost void of new Grain , and for the few lots on sale higher prices have been realised ; the best runs of Irish red Wheat have brought 6 a 6 d to 6 s 9 d . per 7 O ' . bs ., Oats 2 s 5 d to 2 s 6 £ d per 451 ba ., an advance of fully 4 d and 2 d per bushel respectively . New Oatmeal must be quoted 2 s dearer ; 22 a 6 d to 23 s per 2401 bs . paid for Irish . The English new Barley , being still held at 343 to 35 s per quarter , has moved slowly . No change as regards Beans or Peas .
Manchester Corn Market , Saturday , Oct . 29 . The business done in Flour during the week has chiefly been in limited quantities to consumers , whose stocks are generally light ; and , to effect sales , holders of the article freely accepted offers made by the trade at prices somewhat below the recent nominal currency . The transactions in Oatmeal were of an active character , the low prices having induced extensive consumption ; and a clearance was effected of all prime parcels in first hands at improving ftrices . The imports into Liverpool or Runcorn are ight from all quarters ; those from Ireland show a
considerable falling off , which has caused a temporary scarcity of Oats aud Oatmeal . There is no alteration to notice in the value of Wheat at our market this morning , but holders firmly demanded the quotations of this day se ' nnight . The trade in Flour was ohitfly of a retail character to supply present use , and 385 to 39 s per sack were extreme rates for superfine qualities . Oats and Oatmeal , from their scarcity , commanded higher prices ; and an advance of 2 d per 551 bs . on the former , and 6 d to la per load on the latter article was realized , but only in limited quantities to the dealers .
London Cobn Exchange , Mondat , Oct . 31 . — The supplies during last week were moderate of English Grain and Flour of all sorts , but of Irish Oats the arrival was most abundant , being equal to about 57 , 654 quarters . Of foreign Wheat we . had also several cargoes arrived , in the whole amounting t ? near 13 , 000 quarters . The demand throughout the week for Wheat was languid , and prices rather tended downwards , particularly samples of middling inferior quality . Foreign Wheat might have been purchased on decidedly lower terms , and some considerable quantity changed hands at the decline . For other Grain the trade ruled steady , with the exception of Irish Oats , which on Friday receded
from Is . to 2 s . per quarter , according to quality . To this morning ' s market the show of English samples fresh up waa moderate of English Wheat and other Grains . Wheats have been taken off more fully than on this day week , but prices have undergone improvement . Barley has met a fair demaud , at the rates of this day week . Irish Oats meet a tolerably free sale , at a decline of Is . to 2 s . per quarter . The supply of Beans and Peas , boih White and Gray , has been fully equal to that of last Monday , aud good boiling Peas are in demand at prices the turn dearer than on that day . In Flour we hear of no alteration . Seeds of all descriptions meet an average demand , and all description are unaltered in value .
London Smithfield Market , Monday , Octobeb 31 . —The official return of Foreign cattle imported into London under the new tariff , for the week ending the 29 th instant , is sixty-sevan head of bollocks , of which two were from Oporto , and the greater portion of the remainder from Holland . Besides these there were some from Spain , by way of Devonshire . With one or two exceptions , these cattle were again of a very inferior quality ; not so old perhaps , generally , as some on former occasions , but decidedly in a poorer condition . This quality of foreign beasts attracts little notice beyond that of mere curiosity ; this was the most observable to-day , as very fen " bics" were made for them , and the salesmen found a difficulty in fixing a price . Few sold , and
those at a very low figure . The average price cannot be quoted higher than 2 s . 6 d . to 2 s . 8 d . per stone . Although during the Midsummer quarter a larger supp ly of home-bred cattle is expected than durinf the preceeding one , yet the number of English Bollocks at market to-day was exceedingly large , being full 4 , 000 head . Of these the principal number were from Leicestershire , but the whole of the countia which at this season of tho year supply the market forwarded a larger number than for a long while past There , was also an increased number of Short Horn ! and Runts . The demand for Beef was very limited and the over abundance of the supply increased tit dullness of trad * . Prices , from these circumstanc * combined , were lower , as to effect gales a deolina was willingly made . Prime Scots and EDglish Ox cannot be quoted higher than 4 s . stone and
per , inferior not m ore than Ss . The number of l * ^ turned out unsold was , aa might be expected from the large supply and limited inquiry together , larger than on many a market past , and quite sufficient W meet Friday ' s demand . The number of head « Sheep returned last night as the supply for to day * market was upwards of 34 , 000 , but as th » droverB in the first instance give a la' /?* number in than they actually bring , the number on Smithfield stones this morning may with greater accuracy be given as about 30 , 000 in -round numbors . The butchers were equally as backward in their purchases of Mutton as of Beef , and th « large number on offer caused a very dull state of trade . Prime full-mouthed Southdown Wethers did not command more than fa . lOd . per stone , and the best Southdown Ewes about 4 s . 2 d . on tb «
average . A few realised 4 s . 4 d ., but the formei price was the more current rate of the day for & best quality . Tho supply of Calves was , according to the time of year , also large , and more than adequate to the demand . The finest Young Ca ves did not fetch more than 7 J . per lb . Pigs were oil »" average in number . For this kind of meat also then was a dull trade .
