It is eurprising(he adds) that a great number of the t r oops employed in this duchy have received o den to march towards the west, whilst no force remains here at all corresponding with the ltussian one esta blished on the frontiers." It may be remarked here that the entire conduct of the Prussian government of late is somewhat enigmatic. according to official accounts from Posen up to the 16th, that duchy is becoming tranquil. A commis sion has been appointed to make au inquiry into the excesses committed by the German soldiers. The chief president has issued a circular removing the prohibition to make or sell scythes. In a few days a corps of about 2,000 " policemen" will be formed in Berlin for the maintenance of public order. FRANKFORT.—The discussion in the Frankfort constituent assembly on the report of the committee respecting the central executive commenced on the 19th. The result has not yet transpired. It is pro bable that the assembly will vote for the federal directory of three persons, to be chosen by the va rious German governments and approved of by the assembly. ATHENS, June 10. The Greek government has refused the formal de mand made by the Turkish gnu rnment that Apostole Nadir, Turkish subject, who tired at and wounded th, Turkish ambassador, ht. :gunmen*, should he given up to ihem to 1w tried by the laws of Turkey. The crime, it is alleged, having been commi ted in Orrice, the man must be tried by the Greek tribunal, axreeahly to the custom of the country. This refusal will no doubt breed a quarrel between the two cabinets. Ilithertd, whenmer a Greek has commived a crime in Turkey, he has invariably been given up to Lis consul when claimed. Sir Stratford Canning arrived here on the 2nd, in her Majesty's atiamer Antelope, with his famiiy. on his way to Constantinople. Ito hat all au.' knee of the King on the 3rd, and dined with the court en the 4th : most ef the foreign ministers were presint. The insurrection in Greece has foiled. Several of the chiefs have been mute prisoners, and tha remainder, with their toll men, have taken shelter in the Turkish territory. The budget for 1818 is not passed: not one-half the items are yet got through with, although we heard a month ago that it was nearly all examined. The ten thousand dollars were delivered to Sir Edmund Lyons on account of the interest of the loan due list March, and sent by him on tinted the steamer Meteor for safety. CONSTANTINOPLE. JUNE 7. A despatch was received on the 4th from the go vernor of Belgrade, informing the Ottomsn government that the Princes Michel and Milooch had left Vienna and were en rout:. for the principality of Servits, to get up a tkmonstra tion in their favour. The governor asked the l'orte for in structions, in the event of their entering the province. A few hours afterwards an extr tordinary courier arrived in less than six days from S. rvia, ..nnouncing that the govern r had taken upon himst If to act in concert with the Prince of Serria, and stopiwd the princes on their road, and that every part ut the province was perfectly tranquil. The &yards, who were arrested in consequence of the recent events in Moldavia, arrived in Constantinople on the 30th ult. They have Inten sent to Droussa to reside, under the charge of Cabooli Effendi. The Sultan's aunt, Eema Sultane, the sister of Maltmoud 11., died on the 2ml, at the age of 73 years. and was buried on the 4th with great pomp, in the temb of the Su:tun Mahmoud. Another change took place in the ministry this morning. Darbhur Reschid Pacha, t x commander-in chief of the army of Rounlidia, has been apttointed commander in-chief of the Imperial Guard, vice Mehemet Pacha, who has hcen named Presidia of the Council of War, rice Rifest Pacha, dis missed. The Sultan is at this time attending a cabinet council of all the ministers, in consequence, it is said, of • communication from the Russian Ambassador. UNITED STATES - MEXICO. RATIFICATION OF THE TREATY OF PEACE. _ _ The Hibernia, Captain Shannon, arrived at Liver pool yesterday from New York, which she left on the 7th. She brings specie in treiet to the amount of 58,000'. The United States had arrived at New York on the 31st of May. The Niagara reached Boston on the 2nd inst. The Hibernia beings also the welcome tidings of the ra•ification of pence between the United States and Mexico by the Congress at Queretaro on the 19th ult. The intelligence was brought by the Edith steamer, which reached New Orleans on the 30th of May. It is thus given in the Courier and Enquirer far Europe : " The treaty was ratified by the Chamber of Depu ties on the 19th ult., at a quarter past six o'clock, p.m. The vote on it was 51 to 35. In the other branch of Congress there is no doubt but that it will be approved by a comparatively much larger vote. Orders had been issued for the calling in of the outposts of the army, and they were expected to march for the coast between the Ist and 15th of June. Gen. P. F. Smith has been appointed superintendent for the embarka tion of the forces at Vera Cruz, and he was to leave the city of Mexico, for the purpose of entering on this duty, on the 24th ult." The passing of the treaty did not take place without opposition, the minority threatening to leave the chamber, and thus destroy the quorum. This threat they did not, however, carry into effect. (ien. Herrera had not been chosen President as it was expected he would be—bat Pena-y-Pena had been elected President ad interim, and it was thought that Herrera delayed accepting the office until the treaty was ratified, that he might enter upon the government without any of the odium which might attach to that act. The vomito was raging at Vera Cruz. Numbers of meetings in favour of the different candidates for the presidency were taking place in all the large towns throughout the United States. Mr. frist was coming to Washington by the lake route, and, it was understood, would report himself to the President as a military prisoner—a rather singular position for him to be placed in, says the Courier and Enquirer, considering that the cause of his arrest is the making of the treaty of peace the senate and the country are so anxious to ratify. With regard to money and commercial affairs at New York, the Courier and Enquirer says : The stocks of this state are in somewhat more demand. Of the 3,000,000 loan, at 7 per cent., one half is payable next month. Ot that amount some 346,000 dole. have been already redeemed—leaving to be paid 1,228,730 dots.—to meet which, according to the comptroller's report of last January, there would be on hand 417,212 dole. The comptroller, under the authority of a law to that effect, issued a circular on the sth of May, proposing to the holden of the Seven per Cent. Stock an cadence at par for Five and.a-Ralf per Cent. Stock, redeemable in 18.55. The holders not It ving manifested any willingness to accept the alternative, the comptroller has advertised for proposals for a six per cent. loan, TI deemable in '55 for 800,000 dole, the sum lacking to pay off the balance of the Seven per Cent. Stock, He also invites proposals to the 27th oust., for another loan of 489,817 dole., at 6 per cent., redeemable also in 1855,—t0 provide for other wants. These amounts, of more than a million and a quarter, are to be added to the sixteen mil lions which in all this month will be hid for on the U. S. loan. Capitalists are already preparing for these operations, and money is accumulating in the banks. Owing to the continued export of coin, bills on England ore dull, although the rates remain high ; 111 is the asking price, but few sales are effected.

NEW IiRUN SW ICK.—FnEE TRADE BETWEEN Tint CIeIVED STATES AND CANADA.—The Halifax Clain n•cle, of June 6, reports the proceedings of a public meet numerouslt and respectably attended, which took place at St. Jahn, on the 314 of May, the Hon. John Itoberison in the chair, at ehich the following important resolutions were passed, aim at without a dissenting voice: ltesosesi,—Mat the Tweet change in the policy of the British go vernment, am respecto the protection to colonial guoda In the home In bet, has inaterielly affected our trade with the mother country, nal wholly deetroyed that with the Britith West Indies: it is then:s hire desirable that we should endeavour to extend our coin. mercial intercoorm, with a view to peek comumption foe tor exports.

Of Sir William Colebrooke, who has been appointed gover nor of this colony, no further accounts have bees re ceived. A rumour has been they common that Sir Wil lianie appointment is that only of lieutenant-governor— a fart which, if true, would lead to the inference of Guiana becoming a dependency of Barbadow. We have good reason, however,onth to be aware that th which ere is no foundatn ter this remirt, which, we belime, emanated frem the manure In which the London Frew Mine Ms ago task notice of Sir IA Illiem'e promotion to this colony ; but that Sir W ilium will be, aa hla respected preomerwor tiovernor Light ham been, not lieutenant, but full governor of this remote, though fine, powesslon of ,the British crown. A meeting of the Court of Policy was held on the lath knot., when a committee or the an. otticial section, who had drawn up a report on certain late deepatebes of Earl Grey, entimmoured to get their report placed on the minutes.

The weather was so extremely unseasonable'! that thi re was great reason to fear that, out of canes in the ground equal to the production of 10,000 hogsheads of auger, scarcely any would be saved; that, is fact, they would rot in the ground. WESTERN AUSTRALIA. FREEMANTLE, MARCH s.—The affairs of this colony continue far trona en couraging. Instead of progressing like the sister settle ments, it is daily falling off ha importance, and the colonists are seeking other places whereon to expend their energies and enterprise. A new trade has lately engaged the atten tion of the colonists—viz., supplying the Indian markets with timber for the purposes of stupbuildiag. In the south ern districts active preparations are in progress to procure a supply of timber to be seat to Calcutta by the Selween. Should the result cf the experiment prove s a tisfactory em ployment will be provided for more than twice oar present number of labourers. After much dilitoriness, the authorities have at last re solved to commence operations on the bar of the Swan. Government hos invited tenders for blasting the rocks at the mouth of the river. The expense will be borne in part by the board of work. and by public subscription ; the latter has been headed by Mr. G. Sbeaton's subscription of 501. The list is actively filling up, and every prospect offers for the removal of what has loog interrupted the free navigation of the Swan. On Feb. 20 the barque Metope sailed for London, with a full cargo of wool and oil, the produce cf the colony. Amongst the passengers per Merope is the Very Rev. Don Jiarii Serra, who has taken an his charge a 'setae. boy named Upemera, baptised Benedictine Upemera. This youth is about six years old ; he will remain in Europe ter such a period of years as will complete his education ia every branch of literature and science, and then return to the colony as the apostle of civilisation among the aborigines. The headquarters of Upemera's tribe is the country called Kinkier Spring, about three miles to the wiatward of the Benedictine Mission-house. Apart from the interest which is attached to this passenger the departure of the Merope is an event, as being that of the fleet large 'vessel which the colony has pawned. Her return is expected by November . of the current year, when she will convey to the colony a number of Scotch shepherds. Notwithstanding the quan tity of wool (431 bales) exported by the Merope, there is more than eufficient to freight another vessel. The Merope also takes home a ton of emery, the produce of the colony. In the midst of the troubles of the colonists the local government has issued orders to the crown solicitor to pro ceed forthwith against the various debtors to the crown. This stringent measure will affect seriously the earlier set tlers, who, after having exhausted their means, were com pelled, on the security of their lands, houses, or other property, to procure provisions from government when star vation stared them in the face. Write of Art facial have already been issued, and several families ruined. The odium of the measure, whether justly or not, i• heaped on the head of the colonial secretary, who, to curry favour with the home authoritiee, it is said, has promoted three oppressive proceedings. No less than five of the first settlers, whose tail and unremitting labour were insufficient to make the soil produce food for their families, and who uet have perished but for a timua supply of provisions from m the government, have, by the eo cruel measure now had recourse to, been driven from their homes and compelled to commence the world anew. Dr. Von Sommer left Freemantle on the morning of Feb. 26, to continue his researches for coal at the Murray distrist. Messrs. Peel, urry, and Armetrong accompany the inde atigable exlo M rer. a A number of German shepherds are f sh p ortly expected from Adelaide. Mr. Owen endeavoured to get these shepherds to enter into engagements at the rate of 251. per annum for wages, but they decdned the proposal, preferring to make their own arrangements on arrival at the colony. All are on the tiptoe of expectation for the advent of the new governor, Capt. Fitegerald, daily expected. The present nepotistnal; government will, it is hoped, soon cease to misrule the colony. The governor, judge, colonial secretary, and advocate-general, ere all orangemen. The judge (Mr. Mackie) is the brother-in-law of the governor ; the colonial secretary married the daughter in-law of Lieut.-Col. Clarke, and a complete ompact is formed, which works ill for the prosperity and advancement of the settlement. VENEZUELA.Letters from Puerto Cabello, of the 19th ult., received in the city by the West India steamer, report that General Pees was shut up in Maracaibo with troops by the forces of President Menages.

Yesterday a quarterly general court of proprietors of East India Week was held at the company'll house, in Leadenhall.street. for the despatch of hustuesa ; Sir James Law Lushington in the chair. The minutes of the last court were read and confirmed. The CHAIRMAN acquainted the court that the petition re lative to the sugar duties, which was agreed to at the last general court, was presented to the House of Commons on the following evening by John Masterman, Esq., M.Y. for the City. The CHAIRMAN then said that the accounts and papers which had been !aid before parliament since the last quar terly general court were now laid upon the proprieters' table, the titles of which would he read by the clerk. They were read accordingly. An account of the superannuation granted since the last court was also read. DIVIDENII.—The CHAIRMAN acquainted the court that the dividend warrants would be ready for d.livery on the 6th July, BY R-LAWS.—The report of the committee of bye-laws was read. It merely stated that the bye-laws had been duly observed during the past year. THE RAJAH or SATTARA.—Mr. SULLIVAN said the ques. lion rela,ive to the Itajilt of Setters had, within the last three weeks, assumed a new aspect. The disappearance of Allah Sahib from the scene induced him to inquire what were the intentions of the directirs with reference to the territory of Satter*? It was stated teat it was not intended to allow the adopted son of the late rejah to succeed to the property of his father. He wished, therefore, to know whether the directors had sent out to India '.ny and what instructions on the subject of the disposal of the rajah's territory ? The CHAIRMAN said be had a very plain answer to give to the question—namely, that no instructions wha.ever had been sent out to India on the subject. Mr. SULLIVAN inquired whether the directcrre had it in contemplation to send out any instruntions on the subject? The CualliMAN said that he could not say what course they would adopt until they had received certain despatches from the Bombay government. Mr. Lewis wished to know whether those despatches would be laid before the proprie'ors when they did • ? The Cna.inmate said he could not give any assurance to that effect until be knew what were the contents of th ins Panel's. I 'Mr G. THOMPSON regretted that the chairman had not given a more satistactory answer to the question that had bean put to him. The C 'tallow+ . said that, until the directors were made acquainted with the View, of the Bombay government oa the subject, he could not give the hou. proprietor any forth( r information. RAILWAYS IN Itintw.—Mr. SULLIVAN said the public were extremely anxious to knew what steps the directo.s had taken with reference to the establishment of railways in India. Ile believed that out of three companies that had been formed for that purpose, two had since expired, and the third was in a state nearly approaching . to dissolution, in consequence Of which he feared that the introduction of rail ways into India was further off than it was four or five years ego. A valuable opportunity . had been lost of introducing British manufactures Into India. It was not by protective duties or any such trumpery stuff that the interests of India would be best promoted. To do justice to India every possible facility should be afforded of bringing her produce to market. He hoped the directors had had the twitter under their coneideratien, and that they would not suffer India to be behind all the rest of the world with reference to railways, of which no country stood in greater need. The CHAIIIMAN, in reply, said the hon. proprietor was not strictly correct is his statement with reference to the railway companies of India. The Bombay Railway Company had had four months' time given them to prove that they had sufficient capital to go on with, and he hoped that the neces. sary deposits would be paid in Ausust next. No persons could be more desirous than the directors teethe introduction of railways into India, and now that their hands were clear by the dissolution of two of the proposed companies, they would keep the suhjict before them, and consider what would be tee best means of promuting the introduction of railways into India. It was quite a mistake to suppose that they had any wish to throw obstacles in the way of any rail way company. Mr. SULLIVAN said it was not want of sufficient cultiva tion that was complained of, but the enormous cost of bring ing the produce to market. Yr. G. Tnusesos said that all persons who were ac quainted with the affairs of India agreed as to the propriety, and even necessity, of the introduction of railways into that , country; and while he was glad that the directors had not , too readily granted terms to any railway company, he hoped that in their future consideration of the question, they would , not evict from those who had embarked their capital in such . undertaking renditions with which it would be impossible , for them to comply, consistently with the duty they owed to the shareholders, but that every facility would be atTorded : them for the bona fide accomplishment of the scheme they prgosed • Mr. TWINING thanked the directors for the great atten tion they bad paid to this all-important subject. IDOLATRY IN INDIA.—MT. POYNDER rend several memo rials from baptist congregations in different parte of the country, pr ying that the government of India would take no part or in any way assist in the idolatrous worship of the natives. The following is a copy of one of the documents put in : itmolution of the ban lot missionaries in Orlon, assembled in an. nual conference, at Cuttack, Feb. 18 to 813, _lB4B :—That as a Early of missionaries, called by the Providence of God to labour in Orissa, we feel constrained to renew our protest against the iniquitous contino : ante of the government donation for the support of the vile.t system • of superstition that ever degraded man and dishonoured God; and that we intend, in the name of that God who abhors idolatry, to raise our voice against this abomination till it 'hall be swept from the earth. That Mr. Lacey be requested to furnish the committee with the requi site information an to the prevent position of this question.—{Signed) ISAAC iirIAINS, Chairman. The hon. proprietor gave notice that he would call the atten tion of the directors to these memorials on the next court day. The court then on the question adjourned. It was very thinly attended. the committee could produce no evidence on that point.— The Jury returned as their verdict "That the deceased died front violence, received from blows in and upon hie body, on the 4th of June, but how and by what means such violence was caused no evidence appeared." THE REFORM MOVEMENT. COL. P. THOMPSON AND THE MOVEMENT.—CoI. Thompson sends every week a letter to his constituents at Bradford, in which he makes a running comment on the poli tical proceedings of the week. In his communication of yesterday, he says: On Tuesday came on Mr. lintne's metiers on the sulfrage. It was preceded by a Morin of petitions, indicative of non-aseent to the minis terial assertion that the people did oat care. One of the mover's first intimations was, that he bad by mietake omitted the word "all," and that his object was to give the suffrage to "all" householders. It is pity but Ha< couW have been found out before; or that it could have Men known it was to be found out then. The replies of the two fol lowing speakers (Mr. Drummond and Lord J. Russell) were rich studies for all the petitioners upon the pubject ; and as such I Io commend them. The stock objection to Mr. slime's motion appeared to be, that it did not go to universal suffrage. The minister further atated that he greatly preferred annual parliaments to trien nial. It is to be hoped these two points well he remem bered another time. A communist petition, presented by Lord Ashley, was ably appealed to; and it was inferred that to laden to proposed reform would be to establish the noble lord's petitioner in the seat of government. The ch./Beta were akilfull planed off, and declared to be the majority among the reformers. It fs very hard that the ministers.' oily in the City meeting shoula be obliged to give bail. The inequalities in the electoral divisions were defended as pleasing varimies ; of th e nature of what a man discovers when one elector pays him en shillings in the pound, and another three-and. eixpence. And the commotion on the continent were pointed to, se reasons why nothing should be done to take down popular disaatiefac non here. The member for Oldham (Mr. Pox, made a powertul reply for the working dames. It roust be the fault of the working dorm, with the men of acknowledged ability they have among them, they do not 'orate a hors eta out of thus night's debate. The member for Buckinghamshire made such a speech as is to be desired from on opponent; maiming ertoueh to ensure being rrad, fend car rying everywhere the conviction of the soundness of the other side. His most serious argument was, that injustiee must be perpetuated, hecut-e governments can only Is, conducted by means of the tradi tional. And his effort was to ridicule the present aa o. "middle clam . movement, and work on such jealousies of the working classes as may lead to a division on that ground. The eliartista and the working cl .e-e< are clearly to be the care paw if they will. The debate wan adjourned at half-past one o'clock, the the whole no damage was done; and the word in the country should be to go on toe the next :tap:unto.: of the debate. It was nominally adjourned to Fri dry ; but there are great odds arming its resumption on that day, eo there Le na need to stop for want of time. MEETING AT ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE-EAST. — I beg to inform you that a very crowded meeting was held on Mon day evening in the vestry of St. George's-lit-the-East, when a series of resolutions were passed, and a petition adoi.ted for presentation to parliament in favour of Mr, Hum", motion now before the house. At the close of the meeting, (seconded by an intelligent chartiat) moved a vote of thanks to the Daily News for the steady support it has givers to the movement, as also for its excellent reports of the various meetings that have taken place throughout the country.—Z. W. DAVIe, Bromley-street, Stepney. ST. LEONARD, SHOREDITCH.—Yesterday, in the afternoon, a numerously attended vestry of the ratepayers at this parish was held in the vestry-room at the church, in furtherance of the new reform movement. Mr. G. Pearce in the chair. Mr. Bathurst moved ar.d Mr. Moore seconded the m , tion, that the meeting consi•leri a new reform bill to be desirable, based upon household suffrage, vale by ballot, triennial parliaments, and equal electoral districts. Mr. Dyson moved and Mr. Hall seconded an amendment, to the effect that universal be substituted for household suffrage. After a long discussion the amendment was cartietl. Peti tions to both houses of parliament founded upon the reso lution were then agreed to. SANDwICII AND DEAL.—The reformers of this united horoueh have had a meeting and petitioned for re. form. Vele correspocdent, writing from Deal, says : "Whigs, tories, radicals, all have united to bear their honest testimony in favour of reform. The old whig and tory cry is almost hushed, and all classes stand committed to atm at one com mon end. l'arty strife, we sincerely hope, will be less known than ever." Another, elating from Sandwich, declares, that " Somata our representatives vote against the ' people,' by opposing Mr. Hume's motion, the tadical reformers of this borough are determined, previous to another election, to bring lorwar I two candidates who will advocate their views." THE IlinnLonno.—At a public meeting, held at Obatt on the 15th inst., at which the chief magistrate pre. eided, it was unanim ously resolved to petition parliament in the following terms, via.: Being fully convinced that a great deal of the wasteful extrava gance oft he government expenditure, the inequality of taxation, and other evils eairtutg in the administration of the laws, arise from the 'Muted nature and lettered exercise of the franchise, and the uncon saurian.' preponderance of a small titled and monied clam in the elections, the ['teener, therefore, petition parliament for a great and effective extension of the elective suffrage, vote by ballot, more equal and better.conetituted electoral distrieta, triennial parliaments, and a great reduction of the expenditure of the country. BANQUET AT THE TRINITY-HOUSE TO HER MAJES TY'S MINISTERS, &c.—Tbe master of the Hon. Treaty Cor poration, the Duke of Wellington, and the elder brethren gave a magnificent entertalam.nt at the Trinity House, Tower-hill, last s Truing. This annual festival is usually held on Trinity Monday; but the Waterloo bar quet taking place on the evening of that day, it was postponed in order that his grace might preside. It was served up in the grand Model hde covers being laid for eighty-two. The massive vase, presented to the corporation by his late Ma jesty King William IV., was an object of much attraction on the tabs. With military precision at 7 o'clock his grace led the way into the banqueing-hall, and, its the cee eity of muter of the corporation, presided. All the noblemen pre sent who were brethren were attired in the dr la of the order. The band of the Coldstream (Nardi; was in attend ance. Shortly atter ten o'clock the company broke up. The Duke of Wellington was loudly cheered both on his arrival and departure. RAGGED ScrtooLs.—Yesterday afternoon the se cond annual meeting of the friends and supporters of the Ragged School, established in Grotto-passage, High-street, Merylebone, wan held at the Literary Institute - is, Edwards street, Portman-square, and was attended by a large number of the neighbouring geetry.—Lord Ashley, M.P., took the chair, and said he bad no doubt whatever that ragged schools would soon receive government aid. Recalled upon the meet. , iog to give its earnest support to the schools, as they had been round the best instruments yet employed to improve not only the spiritual but the temporal condition of those , poor children with whom the metropolis abounded. — The secretary then read the report of the committee. It stated that there were now six different schools. In the infant school, 217 boys and 213 girls hail been admitted, the number now nn thy books being 135. The other schools were for children of more mature age, in which they were taught reading, writing, and arithmetic • the girls beelike being instructed in necelework and the boys in some other 1 useful occupation. During the year the gir.s had made' 50 garments, which had been distributed amongst the children. In the evet ing school fur males the average attendance was GO, and a very matked improvement in their demeanour was perceptible. A library for the we of the more advanced pupils had been commenced. Several of the girls hail been provided with situations, and boys, whose pareuts desired it' had been supplied with clothes and sent to sea. Altogether the reselt of the past yeare, operations was most eatistactory, and gave increased hope,: for the success of the undertaking. The receipts amounted to 2231. 13s. 3d., and the expenditure to 2141 . 13s. Bd.—On the motion of Lord Kinneird the report was adopted, and several resolutions in support of the schools having been passed thanks were voted to the chairman, and the meeting separated. I) ItEsSMA K ERs' AND MILLINERS' BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION.—A public meeting to form an institution in furtherance of the above object was held yesterday, in Willis's Itooms,Kingetreet, St. James's. Lord Ashley pre sided, and in opening the proceedings, after expressing the pleasure which be telt in taking the chair on that occasien, sail it was needless for him to enter into a detail of the suf lerings of the class which they were assembled to mist. But, in pacing, he thought he might refer to the evils which were endured by milliners and dressmakers from else and overheated rooms, and the many disorders arising from the present system, among which he might mention pulmonary c insumption and insanity. In nearly every clue, however, in which these disorders had been experienced by the class is question, reason had re turned when the toil was removed and the method of living changed. The principal object for which they had that day met was to establish a benevolent and provident institution, and to enable the milliners of the metropolis and the coun try, by their frog .pity. to secure provisiou for themselves in future life. It was very possible that those young women would be already aware of the benefits of such an inetitu • tion; bat he considered that they also ought to be acquainted with the means of establishing it. It was, then, the duty of the influential classes to come forward to aid those who were unable to assist themselves, in order that the objects which they had its view might be carried into effect—The Duke of Argyle moved the first resolution, which espy. seed the approbation of the meeting of the mea sures of those who were engaged in the establishment of the institution.—Dr. Brewster seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously.—The Earl of Arundel and Surrey then moved and Mr.o wen seconded a resolution, setting forth the advantages which were to be derived from such an iasti• tution as was proposed by the particular class in question. The r. solution was carried unanimously, as were others, appoint ing ladies' and gentlemen's committees to draw up tee rules of the proposed institution, and giving thanks to those ladies and gentlemen who had &Pleated in its promotion.— Mr. Field then read an address to Lord Ashley from a body of milliners, soliciting his lordship's assistance and influence with her Majesty is, obtaining support for the profession, and a share of that patronage which was at present enjoyed by foreigners —The usual complimentary vote to the chairman concluded the proceedings. INQUESTS, YESTERDAY: LADY ELIZABETH MON- Cate IT —By Mr. Bedford, at the Coachmakers' Arms, Belgrave-aqusre, on the remains of Lady Elizabeth Mon crietf, aged 78. On the evening of the 3rd of June her ser vant had taken up the candles, which her ladyship said abe would light herself when she wanted them. Soon after 9, Lady blonerieff was heard calling for assistance, and upon her maid going up her clothes were in flames and she was much burnt about the face, head, neck, and bosom, the skin actually coming off with her dress, but she uttered no com plaint. Mr. Scannell, of 22, Chapel-street, was called in and attended her ladyship up to the period of her death on ea• turday, which resulted from the injuries. There seemed but little doubt that her ladyship had lighted the candles, and while arranging some choice rows had set the window-cur tains on tire, which had communicated to her dress.—The Coroner complained that no notice hail been sent to him of the death until Tuesday, and that he and the jury were de tained upwards of one hour while the coffin was unsoldered, as it was supposed an inquest was not necessary.—The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental di ath."—Tiut LATE CHARTIST DISTURRANDES.—Before Mr. Baker, at the King's Head, Prospect-place, Bonner's-fields, on view of the body of H.

Dr. J. Wilson, pre centor of the Collegiate and Cathedral Church of St. Patrick, will be raised to the bishopric of Cork. The lull in the agitation still continues. In Dublin the repealers have given themselves a long holiday, and even in the country districts, although occasional meetings are held, the proceedings are dull and spirit less. All the I)ublin Confederate clubs are to hold an open air meeting on Sunday next, at Donnybrook green. Lord Ffrench has come out as a thorough advocate of the proposed union of Young and Old Ireland. A letter from that nobleman appears in the Ereniny Freeman's Journal of this afternoon. His lordship thus concludes : The voice of the country seems to demand a is union ; and I concur in the general expectation that the proposed " Irish League " will demonstrate, with firmness and dignity, that the Irish people fully understand the value of their constitu tional rights, and that they are resolved to vindicate those rights against infringement. I remain, my dear sir, yours I faithfully, To T. M. Ray, Esg., Secretary. A rumour strongly prevails in repeal circles that Mr. John O'Connell will decline joining the proposed league. That there will be a league, however, there can be no doubt. The usual half-yearly meeting of the teachers took place on Thursday . at the Board or Education. After having been examined by the professors in the several departments of the course, and in the principles of agriculture by the manager of the Glasnevin Model Farm, they were addressed at some length by Arch bishop Whateley on their duties as teachers and as members of society. His grace presented each teacher belonging to the established church with a copy of the authorised version of the scriptures. Mr. Gibson, commissioner of education, also addressed them, and concluded with the presentation of a copy of the scriptures to each teacher of the presbyterian communion.—Professor Magawley, on behalf of Arch bishop Murray, and Professor Sullivan, on behalf of Mr. Andrews, also addressed the teachers, and pre sented those belonging to the Roman catholic and unitarian communions with copies of the scriptures and several other volumes. Mr. Baldwin, the able assistant barrister, has retired from the County of Cork, and been presented with an ! address by all the solicitors of the city and county. PROVINCIAL. -------- INGENIOUS SWINDLE AT LIVERPOOL—A stylishly dressed man, who gave the name of John Ogden, was charged on Monday with obtaining money by false pre tences. Mr. Levi, silversmith, Elliottstreet, Liverpool, stated that the prisoner called upon him on Saturday after noon, and offered a parcel of gold for sale, which he said war scrapings of chinaware. The gold metal stood the a: id test, end considering it to be genuine, he purchas• d it, giving 450. and a ring in payment Upon subsequent inquiry, it turned out that what bad been sold as gold war merely a composi tion, with a sufficient overlaying of leaf gale' to make it put the test. Several other cases were mentioned against the prisoner, and it was also stated that there was a pate of men going about engaged in the fraud.—The prisoner, who ca cued himself by saying that the property war not his, was committed for trial. AN ELEPHANT AND ITS KEEPER.-011 Tuesday an inquest was held at Liverpool on R. Howard, the keeper who was killed on Saturday lost at Use Z•aological Gardens by an elephant. Mr. Livened. proved that deceased whilst cleaning the den struck the elephant a smart blow on the trunk, upon which the animal turned upon his assailant and killed him. T Lloyd said—l am ode of the ordeal rs at the Zoological Gardens. On Satarday last I heard a scream, ear ran directly towards the place where the elephant war kept. I found the deceased king on his face on the floor of the den. He was quite dead. The eve omit refore k Fri. day evening) the elephant was draw rag a ear filled with people about the walks of the garden. It was not so very quiet then. The decraed had to beat it several tames with a whip. I remarked to him that he was laying on the whip rather heavily, and he observed in reply that the animal was p'.aytul. Af er the deceased had been taken out of the den theclepbant eat the betom. Lately the deceased had be , n rather se vere in beat ing the elephant, because the lat:er was in the habit of routing up the boards of his den. The animal was well se cured in the den. There was a very strong chain round his loot, and there was no danger to the p .hlie if they entesed it. The elephant, after being beaten the eight before and on many former occasions, used to fondle his keeper and put halfpence into his pocket with the trunk. The elrphust was always fond of Ilium. lie ate a second bosom aft, r he had killed the deceased.—To a juror: Had the deceased not struck eini so sharply with the bea' in all probability the former would have escaped ainhurt.—Th , jur, , after a brief delitarati.,n, returned the following verdict: " We are of opinion that the deceased came by his dente in cow, garner of having beaten tho elephant un•neleiley, the reit) , CAI!. Mg the animal, in his fury, to kill hon." It was sta'e I dur ing the inquest, that the same elephant killed another keeper some time since. ESSEX. SEVERAL DARING ROBBERIES have recently been committed in this county. During the night of Wednesday the chancel dour of the palish church at Stafford was forced, and the thieves effected en entrance into the robing-room, where they broke open several boxes and drewers, but did not succeed in finding the plate. One iron chest was too strong fur their implements, and it theref se remained un opened. They left behind them a plough coulter, 'stick was apparently the instrument with which they broke the fasten- Mtgs.—For some time past the neighbouromd of C qrgrahall has been infested by a gang of laf usebreakers, who have car ried on their work of plunder in a most audacious manner. On Fridley night week five of the gang proceeded to • farm house occupied by a man named Barker, a wiaower. The thieves entered the house by a back window, end then made their way up stairs, where the occupant an d his two sons, between the ages of 12 and 17, were sleeping. The noise made ife ransacking the house awoke Darker, who, to his great consternation, beheld standing near him a fellow armed with a pistol, who bade him keep quiet. He leaped out of bed, but was immediately forced into it aeon by two men, who threw a mattress on him, upon which they piled furniture and boxes. In this position he remained a considerable time, being almost suffocated. An armed ruffian was /sated in like =lnner at the bed of the bays, hut, as they made to resistance they were allowed to remain uncovered, and could set what was passing in the next room. They observed that the thieves twice took up their father's watch and melamine , ' it, and at last the, w it into an old hat, where it was left by them, and that they seldom spoke to each other, and were under guidance of one man. They remained in the house about an hour and a half, during which time they drank 21 bottles of wine. They 1 ft, taking with them 51. in gold and silver, and 6 lb. of cheese. They then proceeded to another farmhouse two fields off, occupied by Samuel Ham, who heard them approach, and, from an up stair window, inquired their business. They said, " We are come for money, which we will have," and in a few minutes made their way into the house. While this was going on Hem was loading his gun, but owing to the excited state he was in he could not fit the percussion cap on the nipple, which rendered the gun u.eless. His daugh ter, as they came up stairs, threw two chain upon them, and he pointed the gun at them, and they in turn their pistols, but did not fire. A scene similar to that which took place at the other house occurred here, and by the time they left the horse daylight was fast coming on. From this house they carried off 31. in gold and silver. Several bad charac ters residing in Coggesball have It en apprehend. d and els ' mined, and hopes are entertained, from the information ob tained, that some of them will ultimately be convicted. Zbt Dzama, ST. JAMES'S.-147 liostein, the director of the Thicitre llistorique, having adopted the hint suggested by the reception of his company on both occasions of their ap pearance at Drury-lane, has resolved on returning to Paris after two final performances, the former of which took place here yesterday evening, being a repetition of the first five acts of " Monte Cristo," and the latter of which will occur on Saturday, being the other five acts of " Monte Cristo," and the actors and playwrights of England may then rest from their &arms on this head; alarms which they have given themselves much gratuitous annoyance by entertaining at all, for as to the actors, the histrimaie compettion, such as it might have been, would very speedily have ceased of itself, while the character of the dramas anutunced by tne Metiers ❑istorique would have involved much additional risk of de tection on the part of our writers of " new and original" comeeiettas, whose privateering is upon much lighter craft. Upon both elegies—to boat we wish heartily well—we would impress this simple but significant maxim—that the public will go to see any thing that is offered, if worth seeing. As to the first five acts of "• Monte Cristo," we are almost dis posed to think that its chances of success wets not impeded by the circumstance, on its two first appearances, of its not having been heard. The dialogue appears to us something exceedingly tiresome, and the incidents are not enough, according to our English notions of the matter, to occupy a two-act draws. The acting of M. Melinguc, as the hero, is rather spirited ; and there is a M. Boutin who hits off a silly, pod-natty ed, drinking friend of the hero, in a very clever way. There was not a word of disapprobation throughout— nor a word of approbation.
