Mr. TTIACICERAT delivered his first lecture on the English humorists of the last century, yesterday, at Willies Dooms, to a very numerous and distinguished audience. There wan, of course, a great curiosity to hear such a subject treated by a writer combining philosophical insight with • kindred genius, and in the natural, lively, social, and lifelike way which might be expected from the author of Peiolencus" and " anity Fair. • The subject of the first lectare was Dean Swift. . . . Mr. Tnacacttav began by saying that he must not be expected, in treating of these humorists, to mutter only a series of lively and facetious observations. Harlequin with out his mash was known to be as grave a man as his neighbours. It was to their lives, more than to their books, that he proposed 'to direct his attention, and they now suggested reflection; of a serious if nut • sad character. As their object had been to comment on others, they now became the subjects of observation themselves ; the preachers of yesterday became the text of to-day's ser mon. Ile then recapitulated the leading facts of Swift's life, his birth at Dublin, his service in Sir William Tem ple's, his political career. Alluding to his biographers, be happily characterised Johnson as having given him a surly recoioution and passed on. After all, the best test war to say of any such man, " How would you have liked to have been his friend i" He should have liked to have been Shakspeare's call-boy ; he should have liked to have lived on Harry Fielding's staircase—to have opened his door for him with his latch-key and shaken hands with him in the morning, and listened to his talk over his jug of small beer: he should have enjoyed the charm of Addeion's convene bun. Nuw, as to Swift, if you had been his inferior, he would lure treated you kindly ; if you had met him aa a man and his equal, he would have assailed you ; if you had been a nobleman he would have been the must delightful companion in the world. His ser vility swaggered so, that it looked like independence. He took the road like Macheath, stopping all the carriages that tame his way to got what he could (ruin them; but there was one carnage with a mitre on it which he tooled for eery ansiroolty. It never came, however • so, said Mr. Tbeekeray, " be bee Ms pita is the air a ewes, and relieve to his ems Mee ewes ebeinelisee ea the dimien et tbet old Ilse IN* emit net pro =me - wed to the last.

He has no redundaaey of illustration. Often be seems afraid of heino eloquent. Neat, he gave a pretam of Temple's houwhold and Swift's position there, which was one of the most characteristic parts of the lecture. There this young obscure genius met as an inferior some of sir William's important friends. What dull pomposity he must have listened to! What feeble jokes ! I wonder (continued Mr. Thacker a) " if it ever struck Temple that this man wee his master i Doubtless such a notion never came inside his ambrosial wig. What did the steward and Sir William's gentleman think of that Irish young gentle man ? Here also was introduced some most felicitow ri dicule of Temple's quotations and pedantry. And now came the lint allusion—introduced with consummate elegance— to Swift's lure of Stella. Swift's eyes, according to Pope, were as azure a.. heaven, and there was one person who was inclined to see heaven nowhere else ! Contrasting Swift's humble position under Tem ple with his brilliant and im portant station during the Harley government, the lecturer came to the question of Swift's religious sincerity. Some of his critics had turned it in his favour that he performed his devotion. secretly in his house. But rarely there was no reason why there should not have been an open assembly for such a purpose ! One of the most characteristic things was his advice to John (lay to turn clergyman—John Gay—the wildest of the London wits—the author of the " Beggar's Opera!" He considered Swift as hay ing been a sceptic, and having su ff ered dreadfully from his scepticism. Henry Fielding and Steele were true churchmen: they belaboured free-thinkers heartily; and each was ready, after he had stumbled, to go on his knees and cry peecaci! Swift was a man of diffe rent powers and a different mind. But he was far too great to have any cant. As far as the hoidens of his ser mons goes, he was perfectly honest. They were political pamphlets. Swift was strangled in his band. He seemed to have been haunted all his life by a fury. His sufferings were awful. He was lonely. The great generally are. The giants must be alone. Here be quoted the anecdote of Archbishop King, and Swift's declaring himself to him the most miserable of men • and, approaching directly the subject of Swift's attachments, apostrophised Stella with much tenderness and grace. She was, ho said, one of the saints of English story. In spite of their disunion, and of Vanessa and the verdicts of most women, who generally took Vanema's part in the emtroversy, the brightest port of Swift's story was his love fur Esther John son. It had been his (Mr. Thacketay's) lot (of course in thy way of his profession) to go through a great deal of sentimental reading; but he knew no writ ing more touching than those notes of Swift's to her, in what he called the Little Language. Such a man must have had a great deal of love in him. He gave a lively picture of the dean's first acquaintance with Vanessa; and said—quite in the strain of the author of " Vanity Fair "—that Stella had enjoyed erne nice little bit of injustice ; that that young lady—Mat oilier per son—had been sacrificed to her. His descriptionof the sad and clouded later day of the gnat man wee vet powerful and affe:ting; and he visited Swift's treatment of vary severely. But he paid then, as he did thenophest, dint homage to the Dean's genius—of whisk be appeared to have a very high appreciation. The lecture was heard throughout with evident delight and attention, sod the applause wail frequent and hearty.

He did so, and we ran some thing like 200 yards before we ease to a stand. Before the train came to a stead, the guard put his head out of the break and said, " What's up ?" I don't exactly know what answer I gave. As soon as the engine stopped I gut down and examined the wheel, and tire, and, finding them right, I turned my head to the driving wheel of the engine, and found the pump rod aas broken, and the pump was broken down ? The guard came to me immediately. He said how long are we going to stop —shall I have to go back ?" I said, " Yes ; but we shan't be many minutes." He immediately left me, and I did not see anything more of hint till after t oo accident. We took the proper steps for repairing the engine with tools we have for the purpose. It did not take us more than four or five minutes. After collecting the tools together, I called out " Right." My mate (the fireman) turned round, and was slackening the break, when he called out, " Jack, there's something coming into us." I was then getting on the en gine. I said to him, " (So on, go on, as quick as possible." I had no sooner got upon the engine than I was knocked down into the tender. The train was put into as quick motion as the time would allow of. It had only proceeded eight or ten yards when the other train ran into us. By the Jury-1 knew that the goods train was to fillow us. The time lost between the break-doss n and starting again was about seven minutes. I did not hear the whi.tle of the goods train or hear it coming. I was busy with the engine. By Mr. Waller—l have been six years in the service of the company, and hare been four years a driver. I was upon the engine half an hour before I started, and did not leave it. There were five carriages in our train. I knew I had to make two extra stoppages, and that there war a goods train coming behind us. I don't know that we ought to have had a van at the tail of the train. The stoppages at the stations average generally about three minutes._ Then the stoppages occupied ten minutes, and the goods train would start five minutes after you ?—Yes. The witness continued—The guard remained with us at the engine two minutes. I did not acquaint the passengers with what was wrong. It was only a few wands after I said " Right" that my mate said there was something run ning into us. I could not have got the train out of the way in t ho se few seconds, the other came so quick upon us. My mate was driven on to the foot-board. 1 cannot say what caused the breaking of the rod. By Mr. lo re tson—l don't know the reason of the delay at Derby. We usually stop at Driffield and Wingfield when there are passengers for those places. The time tables do not show that that train should stop at those stations. The witness continued. I had some detonating sitnals in my box, but am not aware whether the guard had any. Neither me nor my mate blew the whistle of the engine. Did not know, when I said " all right," whether the guard had returned to the train or not. It was not my duty to see whether the guard was upon the train. foupposed that the guard had gone back 800 yards with his hand lamps. He has to go 800 yards back, unless I recall hint. Did you recall him I don't know, exactly whether I did. I could not have rawillal him, u nl ess be laird me my "all right." I only rilfild *Mao may mac It eat adabar owner hear me, I signal him with they le. Judging from the thick ness sad darkness of the ht, the guard could not hear or see me. There was not an under-guard to the train I was not hurt. This is the first accident I have had. By the jury —We were 24 minutes behind time at Clay Cross. We have no watch on the engine. We calculate our time by the speed. Thirty miles au hour is our usual speed, except with express trains. I have driven this par ticular engine eleven or twelve weeks. She had not been in the repairing shop in that time. George Carter—l was fireman to Sheldon on Monday night. I was slackening the break when I saw something coming upon its, and told Sheldon. Be said " Right ;go on ; put the steam on." Ile was just climbing up the en gine when tae train was in motion, and the goods train im mediately ran into us. From the time we stopped to the time we moved again, there was not a greater delay than lave minutes. By Mr. Wailer — We went at the some speed till we got to C loy Cross station, when the steam was shut off in conse quence of the rod breaking. I don't think Sheldon could have stopped the train sooner. It was net my duty to exa mine the engine except in case of necessity. Mr. Fretson proposed to ask this witness it the guard had made any statement to him as to what he did on that night, contending for his right to do so on the ground that the evidence already pointed at negligence on the part of the par. The d question was again objected to, and eventually was not pressed. The witness continued, in examination by Mr. Fretion.— There is a lofty signal-post, with a lighted lamp to it, at the Clay Cross station. If the danger-signal was hoisted itcould be seen from a train coming from Derby in tim. to stop—it is there for that purpose. Sheldon was here recalled—lf I had seen the signal at Clay Cora I think I should have had time to stop the train. If the guard had got to the signal post and turned it as the goods train canoe up I don't think he could possibly have stopped it running into us. Ile could not hare got there in time to prevent it. The guard would not have time after he left me to have gone more than 160 yards. - - - • Wm Ifansfeldt " - nil* Esq., of liiimington-hall, near Chmesslield—l was a passenger by the train on Monday night from Ambergate. The train was overdue, but I ean ast my the precise time. I was in the second-class car eless. There were three passengers within the adjoining cnagiartment. The train made one or two stoppages which were not in the time table. On arriving at the Chesterfield Me of the Clay Cress tunnel I discovered the speed was elasitimed. On the train stopping I looked out towards the engine, and observed some officials foetid the mil% consequently did not take much notice. About UM minutes after the stoppage the inini ems pet our carriage. I should think it Wel hews iskaa his nearly a minute to have come from she engine te where I was.

I then saw the guard, and asked him if the mason train was not then due. 1 did not get an answer from him. I was still afraid of the mail train coming up. I saw a signal light lower down the line, and went to it, and turned on the red signal, but found I could not ware it in its proper plam. Finding that the case, I went and called a gate keeper up. I have travelled with that train I should say 140 times, and not in a single instance has that arrived at ; the Chesterfield station at its proper time ; and I scarcely remember en instance when it has not stopped at stations net noted in the time table. The guard could not have pee more than forty or fifty yards before the goods train came up. By Yr. Fretson—l did not notice whether the guard; stopped at the end of the train or proceeded forward.

My duty is to give the signal to the man at the other end of the tunnel by telegraphimmediately a train comes in sight, and before I allow an other train to follow through the tunnel, I receive a signal ' from the nun lat the other end that the train has passod s assed at hrough. The fast train p his station on Monday night five minutes past 10. I received a signal back in five minutes that it was through. I then put on the caution signal, and kept it lon for five minutes. In two minutes after this the goods train came in sight, and I signalled it through the tunnel, and in five minutes or more I received the signal back I again that it was through. By Mr. Frctson—The passenger train was 20 minutes after time. The luggage train was rather before its time; perhaps 10 minutes. Tho passenger train had • tail lamp. Thomas Bower, signal-man at the north end of the tunnel, gave simi lar evidence. It was 6 minutes wt 10 when the pa senger train passed him. The goods train posed him 01 or 101 minutes afterwards. Henry Hudson—l am a porter at the Chesterfield station. Came by the train on Monday evening from Derby. After' the stoppage of the train he went up to the engine. Thompson, the guard, came up at the lame time. Thomp son asked how long they would be before they could go on and the engine -driver replied, " Ten minutes." The guard then said, " I must go back again then." Witness had his wife with him in the train. He went to the °cerise° to her, in consequence of seeing her getting out; and having heard the driver call out '' All right," told her to ga in again, and shut the door. He got upon the guard's break, but the goods train lmsaediately ran in., thews, sad he was thrown down the embankment. He assisted in getting the body of Mr. Meynell from under a luggage truck. Mr. Meynell was quite dead . Saw Mr. Blake rest ing with his back against the bridge. He thought the engine of the luggage train had gone over Mr. Meynell. By Mr. Frctson—lieard the engine driver cry out " all right," but heard no voice from the end of the train call out that there was any danger. The inquest was then adjourned to Friday morni ng , and the jury were taken by special train to view the l ocal ity of the disaster. EPSOM RACES. THIS DAY. BY EXPRESS. THE RAILWAY PLATE.

Yesterday, at a Court of Common Council, Mr. CHARLES GILPIN moved that " the court pre latic a respectful address to Lord Palmerston, entreating that he will be pleased, promptly and energetically, to use his influence with the government of the Sublime Porto, to procure the immediate liberation of the illustrious Kossuth and his companions, captives, confined in the fortress of Kutarah." Mr. Gilpin referred with regret to the falsification of the hope of Kosauth's liberation expressed on a former occasion. Kossuth was still a prisoner, with no immediate prospect of liberation. Kossuth had raised his voice in defence of the liberties of his country in the national council. He had proved him. self upon ell occasions to be the determined foe of oppres sion, and the hearty and energetic supporter of the op pressed among the Hungarians. The deeds of the Emperor of Austria he had condemned, and when called upon he had defended his and his countrymen's lives, liberties, and privileges. (Hear.) Who were the parties that had maligned, persecuted, and slandered Kossuth? Parties who had trampled upon the rights of their fellow-country ' men, and violated the ties of universal brotherhood. (Hear.) Such are the men who are the opponents of Kos suth. It was not for him (Mr. Gilpin) to say that he re 'carded anything like a resort to arms necessary in any case. i The court knew his opinions upon such a subject better. IHe was not the man who could justify any such a course, nor would he ever weave a branch of laurel over the brow of any warrior as such. (Cheers.) But while the rod of oppression was stretched over Hungary, he (Mr. Gilpin) thought that Kossuth was justified in doing as he had done. (Cheers) It should be remembered that liberty was offered to Kossuth, on certain terms, to which he refused to accede. (Hear.) No, Kossuth's con duct was noble. He would not exchange the crow for the crescent, though °then to gain their liberty had done so. Kossuth was in constant danger of assassination. Several attempts had been made to take away his life. (Sensation.) I Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR seconded the motion. He I said he gloried in the way in which the illustrious Kossuth had acted throughout the whole of the trying scene through which he had passed. Every man had a right to defend himself against tyranny in any shape. The question before them was a very wide one ; it affected the civil and reli gious liberty of the whole of mankind. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Da Jeastv moved and Alderman SIDNEY seconded an amendment regretting the fate of Koasuth, but declaring that the council hud no business to interfere in the matter. After a verbal alteration Mr. Gilpin's motion wasca77l4 unanimously, and it was ordered that it should be inscribed upon vellum and sent to Lord Palmerston.

Archdeacon Hale held his visits.- ties at St. Sepulchre's Church, Snow-hill, according to an nual custom, yesterday morning. After service and sermon by the Rev. T. Hartwell Horne, 8.D., from St. John iv. 24, the archdeacon proceeded from his pew to the communion table, before which the names of the clergy were called over in the customary form. The archdeacon, when about to deliver his charge, discovered that he had not brought it to the communion table. Haying asked some ace to fetch it from the pew in which he had been seen by Mr. Horne, and several other gentlemen, to be hold ing it in his hand, it was discovered that it had been re moved. The clergy then divided on both sides of the pulpit, to see if it had fallen in the archdeacon's transit from place to place, but not a trace of it could be seen.

PAUL'S CATIIEDRAL.—Notice has been put up at the northern and southern porticos of St. Paul's Cathedral that the usual morning and afternoon divine services will be discontinued for the present, creept on Sunday., and on Thursday, the 2fith instant (being Ascension Day, or Holy Thuiscla)•), so as to enable the workmen to complete the preparations making for the anniversary of the charity school children, which will be held on Thursday, the 12th of June next. In consequence of this edifice having been opened daily to the public gratis, from nine in the morn ing till six or seven in the evening, since the Ist instant (without the disgraceful and so long complained of charge of 2d. entrance), the number of persons who have already visited St. Paul's has on an average been from 25,000 to 30,000. DESTRUCTION OF A FLOUR MILL BY FIRE.— Yesterday morning the flour mill of Messrs. Norton, at Wolverhampton, one of the largest in the town, was found to be on lire. Several engines were immediately on the spot, but such was the rapidity with which the lire spread, that by half past 2 o'clock the entire roof of the building fell in. The building is now a mere ruin, scarcely any thing having been saved except the engine, to rescue which the exertions of the firemen were, from the first, directed. The cause of the fire has not been discovered ; the men only left work at 12 o'clock on the previous night, and it was found in dames at 1 o'clock in the morning. It is supposed it must have arisen either from an explosion of gas, or from the friction of the wheels of the smut mill. The damage done is believed to be upwards of 20,0001., but the pro prietors are, fortunately, insured. DEATH OE ME. MOTT, TILE POOR-LAW AUDITOR. Mr. Charles Mott, the auditor for the South Lancashire poor law district, expired on Monday last. Mr. Mutt had incurred the displeasure of the poor law board, on account of the defalcations of the late collector for Hyde, who ab , mended with moneys belonging to that township in his i possession. Mr. Mott, it was considered, had neglected 'to verify certain accounts, the examination of which would have led to the detection of the state of the collector's 1 balances before he had time to get away. Mr. Mott was, therefore, suspended from the further prosecution of the audit he had then commenced. In this state things con tinued up to a recent period, when we believe Mr. Mott received instructions to proceed with his work, and be was to have commenced again on Monday morning week. On Sunday, however, he was found in hisbedroom, having been seised with paralysis, and though conscious at tropism travels, he poke from the time the appalling rlife _ Courser. upon u hiss mr . up mou to itr tliat was o . i co h na is d il era eat b h iy wb ps ic . . • til") 111 4 a 4 84 8I 4 11 2i q SS 6 18 1 1 51 die 44 dig Y 4 3141 i 27i is It'
