May) morning the new House of Detention for the county of Middlesex will be opened for the reception of siemens committed for trial at the Middlesex eemons,_ or le sseaded for further ezamination by nuigistnitre. This mime has beat constructed under the superintaadence of the county architect, and contains altogether 270 cells ; 160 being set spat t for male prisoners, 70 for females, and the remainder are described as " reception cells" and "punish mset cells," the latter far prisoners who are guilty of re burg conduct while in the prison. Upon admission, every proem will undergo an examination ea to cleanlinees of clothes and person ; and, upon an order of the medical officer to that effect, a prisoner's clothing may be sebreted to a fumigating process, or totally destreted, and the prisoner supplied with the mull prison dress, If the state tithe prisoners' persons requires it, they are sent to baths, which are plenteously supplied with hot and cold water. In the common cells the prisoner is furnished with a table, towels, an unlimited supply of water, and a bed formed like a hammock, but 'trapped from side to aide of the cell instead of being suspended. The male prisoners beds are formed of a sacking of cocoa-nut matting (made in the House of Cor rection), blankets, die.: in the washing department there are some two chosen large-sized tubs, to each of which there are hot and cold water and waste pipes, a boiler being constantly in use to supply hot water to the baths. There are spacious airing yards, for the prisoners to have daily exercise. Rooms have been fitted up as "consultation rooms," for prisoners =tithed legal advisers:, and, altogether, the arrangements are such as to confer comfort upon the in mates of the establishment, while they will carry the prin ciple of separate confinement out to its fullest extent. The whole is under the management of Lieut. Hill, the governor, .abject to the supervision of the visiting justices. MORTALITY IN ENGLISH PRISON&—The appendix to the second report of the Surveyor-General of Prisons (which was recently issued by order of the two houses of parliament) contains a statistical table, showing the average mortality in ten of the principal English prisons. That table shows that in the Coldbath-fields prison there were 11,482 prisoners in confinement there in 1841-42, while in 184546 there were 0..1y 9,016. In the former year the number of deaths was 24, and in the latter only 7. In Kirkdale prison there were 2,524 prisoners in 1840-41, when there were 6 deaths; white in 1845-46 there were 4 deaths among 3,041 ',remelt confined there. In Wakefield prison there mutt, 16 deaths among 3,619 prisoner. therein, while lest year there were only 2 deaths among 3,041 prisoner, and in 1843-44 no dea•hs among 3,683 priweers. Again, in Salford prison, in the year 1841-2. there were 11 deaths among 6,211 prisoners ; and in 184-5.46, only 3 among the 4,703 inmates. In West winner there were 3 deaths among the 6,133 prisoners in 1840-41 ,• and in 1845-46, the deaths were nine in number among the 12,940 inmate.. In Liverpool prison there were 382 confined there in 184041, and 8 deaths; in 1844-45 dr is wore 496 prisoner. and 5 deaths. In Lancaster Castle (122 *mien is 184646), in Preston (166), Knott& ird (230), and in Derby (132), prisons, there was one death in tech during that year. The proportion of deaths per 1,000 per enema in these various prisons varied to a re markable extent. Thus, in the Westminster prison, in the year 1843-44, the proportion of deaths was no lon than 24.93 pkr thousand (the highest amount of mortality in the table); while in the Wakefield prison in 1843-44 (where there were more than half the number of inmates), there were no deaths during the year. The other cams of the !reheat mor tality occurred in Coldbath-fields prison in 1840.41, when the proportion of deaths was 22.9 per thousand; in Wake field prie,n in 1840.41 23.7 per thousand; in Westminster in 1842-4:t, 21.0 per thousand; in Liverpool in the same year 21.1 per thousand. In all the gaols enumerated the proportion of deaths has decreased of late years, showing the effect of improved systems introduced therein. " THE MINT MONSTERS. "—We have hail oar attention called by several correspondents to the well-known monopoly of the Proven and Company of /doneyers at the Mint; • greybeard company carrying its institution as far beck as the Henrys and Edwards—but, like many other things that are old, somewhat unsuited for the wants of the present day. The chief person at the Mint is called the " master;" who enters into an indenture with the crown to make the moneys according to certain weights and fineness therein de-cribed. He her, of course, many officers under him: a deputy master, an away master, a weigher and teller, • melter, and a chief engraver. When the engraver has mods his matrix for the coin, the master directs a working die to be struck ; and from this • puncheon is made—the fertile father, if wanted, of • multiplicity of dies. A contract is then entered into with the moneyers, molten, and refiners, who contract to maks the moneys for m much per pound weight. All this seems a simple, suitable arrangement; but then we must bear in mind that the moneyers, who have • prescriptive right to min money under the superintendence of the master, are paid a per-centage on the amount coined ; and, if the coinage in any one year does not amount to 500,0001., each member of the company is entitled to receive 401 But this is not the whole of the advantage possessed by the Company of Moneyen.— the provost and senior moneyen have houses is the Mint, and have the right to perpetuate their company by taking apprentices at 1,0001. a-piece premium. " A nice thing to be • money er," so oar correspondent remarks; "but see the evil of the system : the moneyers, who grow rich by their pa-oentage, will work coin only in the cheapest way." It appears to us that the sooner the company is abollibed the better. It deserves to share the fate of all those went and melanin rights for supplying paper and print which the active esertions of Mr. M'Culloch have recently removed. Let the Master of the Mint be empowered to work his own coin with his own moueyers ; and Mr. Wyon's new five shilling piece--a work of art—may then be struck at as cheap a rate as the old five-shilling pieces—which are not works of art—are now struck by the present monopoly of moneyen. Mr. Shin! (the present matter) should look to this. He may distingui,h his mastership by abolishing a system reverend with nat—and that is all.—Af /sesames. MALLEABLE GLASS.

The line from Lynn to Ely, where it joins the Eastern Counties, was opened yesterday, and twenty nine first and second class carriages started from the Lynn statism, at half-pant ten o'clock, filled with ladies and gentlemen, comprising many of the principal inhabitants of that large mercantile town, to pay a visit to Ely. The terrines, which are painted chocolate, certainly present a gay and handsome appearance ; they were decorated with a profusion of union-jacks, and there wee a band of music in front to enliven the mese. A was concourse of per sona had amembled at the Lynn station to witems the departure of the first train; and upon its arrival at the Ouse-bridge, the company slighted to examine it, it being considered • work of immense strength and art. At half-past 12 the train reached Ely, where a large number of persons had assembled to view its arrival. The visitors then proceeded to the Ball-inn, where the di rectors had ordered a substantial luncheon. At half-put 3 the train started from the Ely station on its return to Lynn, and eta little after I a sumptuous entei tain 'tient was given at the Town-hall, at which the Mayor pre sided, and to which H. Lacy, Esq., M P., Mr. Berme, M.P., Mr. Coke, M.P., Mr. Hudson, M.P., Mr. Waddington, M.P. (chairman, and via-chairman of the Eastern Counties Company), Lord 0. Bentitick, Lord Jocelyn, and the di rectors of the East Anglian and Eastern Counties Companies, had received invitation. Brit the dinner took place at se late en hour that we must defer the report until to-morrow. " ' The bridge over this Ouse is corUidered a most extraordi nary work of art, and is • triumphant speeimen of eurpeardy. The government inspector, Capt. Wynne, It 8., viewed tie works last week, and expressed himself perfectly satisfied His examination is stated to have been very close and severe. his attention being meet particularly directed to the bridge: over the Ouse and the Wilsey, the engineer being J. 6. Valentine, Esq., and the resident engineer, Mr. House. larder. For the better understanding of the construction of these bridges, we give the following details:—The bridge and viaduct over the Wissey is 103 yards in length, and consists of one opening of 70 feet spin over the water way, similar in construction to the bridge over the river Ouse, and seven dde openings of 30 feet span. The viaduct over the river Ouse is 150 yards long, and consists of ten aide openings of 30 feet span each, with a single span over the water way of 121 feet 6 inches. The method adopted to sup port the roadway over this great space is by sus• pending the platform from three timber bows, each formed of 3-inch deals, firmly united together by oak to- I nails ; the suspension rods are of wrought iron of the very best meterel and workmanship ; each rod has been proved to be equal to a strain of 20 tons, and as there are 72 of these rods, the weight they are capable of supporting is 1,440 tons; but the greatest weight which they will be required to carry will sots:teed 310 tone—the platform itself being 160 tons, and the greatest load which can be placed upon it being about 160 tons; but even this weight is never likely to come upon the bridge, except for the sake of experiment. The piers ups which the superstructure rests are built of Yorkshire Amok the foundations resting upon the solid gault at a depth a about 30 feet below the top of the banks. The most minute and careful adineuuremente were taken by the inspector to • ascertain the strength of this bridge. Four locomotive en gines and tenders, and five waggons loaded with iron, were placed upon it at the rams time, but scarcely any deflection of the beams was perceptible, and whether the trains were at rest on the bridge, or pawing over at full speed, there wu not the least perceptible difference observed. SCOTCH BANK BILL. Sir,—We are curious in Sootland to know what Sir Robert Peel and the rest of the anti-Scotch-banking system folks think of matters now. Thank God Sir Robert did not succeed in thrusting upon Scotland the unmi tigated dose that be gave to England, and hence while on your side of the Tweed there is nothing but bankruptcy and rain, on this side there has not been a single failure of the least moment, except in the eases of parties directly involved with the great English houses; the banks feel not the least uneasiness, and afford about the natal accommodation. In short, things move on much as usual, good parties fi nding little difficulty in getting money on paying 6 to, in certain eases, 6i to 7 per cent. for it. Now, I salt, can there be a doubt that oar exemption from the ruinous state of things existing in England is owing to our having been preserved from the full vengeance of the bill of 1844 ? I think not. I think there is no question that but for that fortunate cir cumstance our Scotch merchants would have gone the same as yours, making "contusion worm confounded. But there is no use in dwelling upon misfortune if there be no remedy suggested. I beg to suggest one, which, although mind, may still be of some importance in the present state of things. In Scotland we do not like gold. What we want is, a ezenlatiag representative of property, with a sufficient guarantee bellied for its payment. Whether that guarantee consist of good convertible stock, gold or heritable property, or part of all these. we care not. We will not take noted if it is not known that the bank partner are worth ten times the capital they have in the banking cocoons ; but, having ascertained that, we prefer notes to gold. I propose, therefore, that Sir Robert'eSeotch Currency till be repealed, and the banking system here put on its old footing. The immediate effect of this would be to release a million or two of gold lying useless in the Scotch banks, and to give Ragland the benefit of it. Win this done, there would not be an individual from Berwick to John O'Groat's House who woad net be disposed to cry - John BA I whips look a your prim. aim Illustrative of howtheamily PosPs hill dike Scotland, I may wustion a caw that essonei with ISO d our Aberdeen Wolk shoat four maim ago, mil I wriarstand it Li 1 ease that nom hegira* Ilk ask 'lbw banks.

The prelates, it is understood, are also engaged in relation to the Lord Minto's mission and the perma nent appointment of • British envoy t..) the Roman Court. This delicate question is conducted with much secrecy. Nothing has transpired as to the views of the bishops or the policy to be pursned in the event of direct relations being established be tween the two courts. It is, however, probable that the Roman agent of the Irish hierarchy will receive supplementary instructions, and prove more than usually watchful and wary. In West Carbery memorable for its Skibbereeri and Skull, the landlords have lately been encouraging the growth of flax. But concurrently they have been engaged in promoting the growth of a very dif ferent crop—pauperism and misery. The newspaper. occasionally reveal glimpses of oppression, but the gross accumulation remains in darkness through the want and courage of a chronicler. An English lady has lately been sojourning in that remote district, and her impartial pen details, in a private letter, acts of severity which represent the West Cerbery folks in no amiable light. I will supply you with a few details. Travelling with a male relative through the country, they reached a village with the houses all in ruins. They called to a poor wretch gathering sticks, and asked whether there had been a fire? The following dialogue then took place : Pavesat—Oh, no, air.

The second case is that of a barrister, who did not contribute one penny last year, and whose wretched tenants perished in numbers. He came down in vacation—sent out drivers—forced them to thrash out their corn and deliver it to a neighbouring mill owner with whom he had contracted for the price. The produce is to be set off against old arrears. The third case illustrates the beauty of petty-sessions law. A very extensive proprietor had arrested a shoal of his tenantry and taken the land into his own posses sion. They were summoned for the poor-rate, and pleaded the eviction. They were committed to prison in default of payment ! The last illustration of West Carbery magisterial humanity savours strongly of a " rigour beyond the law." A crowd of paupers hungered for hours at the poor-house door waiting for admission or rejection. One was found eating a turnip. The guardians were sitting, and the luxurious rogue was brought into the board-room. One, more choleric than humane or intelligent, moved that " three magistrates being present they resolve themselves into a court of criminal jarisdiction." No sooner said than done ; and the turnip felon was con demned to two months' imprisonment. This was afterwards commuted to one. You can now under stand the horrors of Skibbereen and SkulL When suck things are done in the green tree, what are not done in the dry ? When the gentry are so cruel now, what must they not have been before ? These facts are authentic. The duties of relieving officers, and the means of controlling them in the exercise of their duties, are a gametic) rexata with the boards of guardians. The boards conceive, a priori, that their labours are suffi ciently onerous, and that a check should be imposed upon the relieving officers, by a more localised power than the distant instrumentality of the board. Upon that view some of the boards are in favour of a sub committee in each electoral division, to aid the officers in the selection of proper objects of relief, as well as to insure the efficient discharge of their duties. To accomplish this arrangement, the South Union guar dians have communicated with the poor-law commis sioners, and the reply has not been satisfactory, al though the reasoning on which it is founded is decisive. "The system of out-door relief," observe the oommiesioners, "is to be carried on by guardians acting as a board, with paid officers under them. When a poor person applies for relief, the undivided responsibility of becoming acquainted with all the circamstancee of the applicant rests with the relieving officer. On the other hand, the undivided responsibi lity of deciding whether or not the applicant shall be relieved at all rests solely with the guar dians." The conclusion to be drawn is, that the in terference of any local body to control the relieving officers, or to make an order few relief, is both con trary to the spirit of the law, and by weakening the authority u well as dividing the responsibility of the boards leads to a pernicious laxity in its operations. In reply to the plausible plea that the local commit tee are likely to know more of cues of relief than the board, the commissioners detect a fallacy in the rea soning as to time. True it is that before an applica tion is brought formally before the board the local directory may know more of it than the collective board ; but when the guardians have assembled and heard the statement of the relieving officer, backed by the knowledge of the electoral guardian, then the board will know quite as much as its informants, and frequently much more ; while, on the other kand, they will be enabled to give or withhold relief with a cooler judgment and freedom from prejudice than the individual guardian. This excellent reply ap pears to have settled the question, as no motion was made to consider it. The South Union committee have reported on the beet means of employing the able-bodied poor, which, however, leaves the question precisely where it was, as a loose recommendation is all the report contains. The proposed employment should be such as to con tribute to the maintenance of the pauper, and 'ca lady preparation of clothing, while the should be empowered to lease a small tract of land for the agricultural clam. For the female department flax cultivation, with its various operations of pp steeping, dressing, and spinning is recommended. To I anticipate their own ace, the purchase of un dressed flax is , as well as the provision of handrails, to grin for the nee of the workhouse.

SUMMARY OP THE ACCOUNTANTS DEPART- M ENT OF THE RELIEF COMMISSION. W. To the relief commiaioneri acting under Act 10 Vic., cape. land 22, Oct. 15, 1847.—1 beg to submit the annexed returns to the eisomissioners, to accompany their final repnt. The first paper (A) shows the number of rations issued OIL the 1 Ith September (the day previous to the final stoppage of relief under the act) to be 442,739, equal to the support of 605.984 persons daily, being a decrease more the 28th August of 599,816 persons. The unions in which the greatest dis trem existed were continued until the final close of relief oa the 12th September, and their names will be found on paper B. The nsnal return of money advanced by the commis sion has not yet been prepared, in consequence of the apportionment, now being made, of grants in aid of rates, to be submitted for the approval of the Lords of the Treasury, preparatory to the legal notice being served upon the treasurers of uniuns for repayment under the 17th clause et the est. This mode of final adjustment 1 referred to in the stseusery annexed to the fourth report of the commis sioners. fio much care being required in the compilation and final ekes of each great detail, that I purpose, with the sanction of the commiaaionen, to forward to the Lords of the Treasury, in a supplementary appendix, the required laws elution relative to each electoral division in Ireland. The Lords or the Treasury, by their letter of the 286 September, having determined that the entire advances made for fever purposes, under Act 10 Vie., cap. 22, shall be con sidered so a grant in aid of rates made to the electoral diri sions comprised within the district of each hospital, I beg to annex a list (paper C) of the temporary lever hospitals, with the amount advanced to each, making in the aggregate the sum of 119,0551. 16s. The amount paid to Commimary- Oen , ral Sir R. Routh, for provisions supplied from commis sariat depot. (or the use of committee* is 136,7951. Os. Bd. The total sum advanced in money, in fortnightly proportions, to the several electoral divisions/br relief purposes amounts to 1,420,4171. 141. lld. Them three sum• form an aggregate total of 1,676,2681. lls. 7d., expended by this commission. This account may yet be altered in a trifling degree, in con sequence of small outstanding cheques, drawn by finance committees, remaining unpaid on the withdrawal of the ba lances from the treasurers, in order to close the accounts on the termination of the service. A very bad system ins prevailed throughout the country, which I have endeavoured to break through, of passing cheques from hand to hand like Bank notes, st being some times many months before they are presented for payment. The local auditors attached to the commission have com pleted their examination of the general account for the month of August, and are now proceeding with September. The laments also of the treasurers of finance committees they are proceeding with for the month of July; some incon venience will now arise in the investigation of these accounts, from the withdrawal of the inspecting officers from their re spective unions, but every facility possible shall be afforded to the auditors in their examination of the aceounts.,Tbe ad vantages of an immediate and local audit have been so fully developed in every stage of this important service, that I cannot omit to record the confidence I have felt as a public accountant, in carrying on the financial service of the com mission, by the immediate discovery and adjustment of errors ; nor can I omit to mention the tourney I have always received from the auditors, Mr. Andoe and Mr. Creed; their labours have bees incessant, in order to keep pace with the immense machine that daily produced MAIMS of accounts and vouches for their audit. It is now my pleasing duty to bring before the commis sioners the services of the gentlemen in my department, wttnout whom willing aid, it would not have been possible for me, with so limited an establishment. to have overcome the difficulties I had to contend with. I found it necessary to divide my department into three branches • one to under take the examination of the numerous setioates as received in oill:e, numbering nearly 2,000 every tertedibt, aastber with the financial correspondence; *ls I herestel to Mr. Malkin, a gentlemen of superior stleinnsents, who hes been of the greatest possible assistance tome. Another hem* I placed in charge of Mr. Null, on, book-keeper, whom I held responsible for the daily record of the account transactions of the C01:11111146i011 • the advances at one time exceeded 60,0001., a day, 'distributed over nearly 2,000 accounts. Mr. Nash, by his correctness and exer tions, has fully confirmed the high opinion I pre vioualy entertained of his ability, which induced me to select him IN my bock-keeper, when I was ordered to undertake this service. I believe him to be well worthy of special re commendation to the Lords of the Admiralty, to which de partment he belongs. The third branch I intrusted to Mr. Coles, of the paymaster-general's department, who acted as my chief clerk, and had the registry of the papers, accounts, and correspoadenoe. To this gentleman lam indebted for the very peat seal he has always exhibited in the perform ance of hts heavy duties: his common attendance at his °Mos has been ten hours a day, oftentimes more. As some index to the labour imposed upon him, I may mention that in four months more than 17,000 letters were received in my de ' partment, and paned through hie buds, together with the registry, arrangements, andemminalion ler auditing of nearly 10,000 accounts with their vensinian.

The opinion of counsel regarding the validity of the recent appointment to the Hebrew chair in the Edin burgh University having been given to the effect that the choioe of Mr. M'Douall, so fix as election is ore cerned, is quite legal, and that the presbytery has no active right of interference, the town council have signed the commission of that gentleman, and =lees • positive order against induction be issued by the Court of Session, the appointment will be consum mated without undue delay. The came generally stands much in the same way as Baron Rothschild's stands with the representation of London; at the pre sent moment he is de facto one of the members for 1 the metropolis, and continues so until the House of Commons interposes its kids. Mr. M'Douall is in the same position. His commission carries him to the ' senators, and the imposition or non-imposition of tests depends with them. In reference to presents sent to her Majesty, Sir Denis le hiarchant acknowledges the receipt of a volume of penmanship from a writing-master in Glasgow, and the Scotaman has the following notice of a gift which has been offered and accepted without the intervention of the under-secretary: The Pseud OF WAIJS'S WHISZT.—We Ilakndaad that Mr. Me &ead, distiller, Bee Neste (better team es " Load ki:".2; W tseeived the Waal's'. permission.. dated on loud the royal t off Csmpteltode, to reseal the Prime of Wales with a east "ridgy, to be kept at .diiiiidisam Palace till hie Royal Higlines is of age. Her Majesty's own presents, although not so long deferred in their operation as " Long John's " aqua is to be, are, nevertheless, tedious in some cases. Thus, the commissioner of the Mail asserts that the 1001. given by the Queen to the poor of Blair Atholl took two years in being distributed—it being giveu out by the Kirk Session in sums of 3/. from time to time, and was a relief to the heritors rather than to the poor, as, in many eases, it was substituted for the allowance which the poor would otherwise have received from the parochial fund. As _might be expected, the present state of pauperism in the vicinity of Olen Tilt is not favourably spoken of by the commissioner. There is no legal assessment for the poor, and the general allowance to the 70 paupers of the pariah is 6d. a week. Some enjoying the special favour of the Duke of Atholl are better off, but for the most the charity of neighbours is the stay of the pauper in Blair Atholl, verifying the saying of William Thom, the weaver poet, that but for the poor the poorer would perish. Referring to the proposed appropriation of the surplus funds of the - Highland Destitution Board to the making of roads, bridges, piers, &c., end the re placing of nets, the North of Scotland Gazette perti neatly remarks: Is aliggne te the million and • quarter of money ,pent on the Ca. worm maw.* ragas and • quarter more has been ,peat in mak.

In view &all these considerations, ma think the practical course for the committee is to tt give luck the money,. or let the subscribers themselves determine how it should be applied. We are glad to find that the Aberdeen committee are not empty handed. They hare got sane .even or eight hundred pounds in the honk and we counsel them to hold it hat there until the sub scribers decide how it is to be disposed of. From Haddiogtonshire bad accounts arc coming as to the extensive appearance of disease amongst pota toes, stored or pitted for winter use and as seed for next season. In Perthshire the floods have greatly injured them, but as this proceeds from a local cause the destruction there is of a less formidable character than what is reported from East Lothian. The quan tity of foreign potatoes in Leith is unusually large, direct steam communication with Hamburg facilitat ing their importation. On two points Scotland reckons herself infallible— theology and currency, and she looks with a contemp tuous eye on all attempts to indoctrinate English no tions of those subjects into the national mind. On theology we say nothing, but, in regard to currency, there will not perhaps be found one intelligent man on this side of the Tweed who does not hold that the wide-spread constituency of the Scotch banks, their twice-a-week exchange' of notes, and consequent immediate convertibility, and, to crown all, their caution in business, rendered Peel's bills, so far as they were concerned, absolutely mischievous and uncalled for ; and nothing but the circumstance of all future banks being prevented from becoming banks of issue, and so conferring a practical monopoly on existing institutions, would have prevented an uproar in Scotland from one end to the other, similar to what took place at the threat ened suppression of the one-pound notes twenty years ago. The same causes still operate: Peel's bill amended would please bankers and bank-shareholders, who are legion in number, but, abolished in foto, the gates of competition would again be opened. Nevertheless, as the pressure tightens, and the ques tion becomes bill or no bill, the latter will carry it to a certainty.

Tn GENERAL CESSATION Or LABOUR ScHgi has, so far, proved abortive. Yesterday morning there were to have been early gatherings in Antos, Dithindeld, Old ham, Heywood, Stockport, and Heston Norris, and the mill hands in these places were to proceed in bodies to Hyde, u a central meeting place, and alter persuading the °pees tires there to leave work, come to resolutions with reforest* to inducing or trying to induce the operatives of other towns to follow their example. When the morning came, how ever, the people of Oldham and Stockport preferred remain ing at work. Not more than half • dose* persons assembled at the rendezvous at Oldham at the appointed time, and the wetness of the weather drove them horse again. The lake. warmness of the groat body of operatives at Stockport ale* dispirited the remainder, and the attempted incaution of Hyde came to nothing. The people of Ashton and Deakin field are all out of work except two mills, at one of which the hands have accepted the reduction ; but the project of going to Hyde seems to have had no charm for the majority, and accord ingly they staid at borne. About 12 o'clock there was • muster of a small party of men, who formed in procession, joined by upwards of 600 youths and boys, and proceeded to Hyde, where they arrived at about one o'clock ; but the people of Hyde were all at work ; no rell•ctlou had bee% offered them, and they would not leave work of their own accord. Under these circumstances, about forty or fifty of the procession went into • beerhouse, and held a council to deb mine on what further should be done. They at !moo earns to a resolution that they should not attempt to hold a public meeting, but that failing success with the operatives they should send a deputation to the master-spinners and manufacturers of HI de, and endeavour to persuade them to close the mills for three weeks or a month. The parties thee separated. The leaden in the affair seem to have a vague notion that if production were totally suspended for • few weeks trade would right itself, but beyond this they seem to have no fixed plan.

From the soiden*, of Mn. Gray, if appeared that she had taken a ticket from Durham to Leas side, but the train only slackened its pace at that station, and dad not atop, whereupon toe witness got upon the footstep of the carriage to descend, when the train was increased in speed, and Mrs. Gray and her child were thrown off to the ground, by which she received severe injury, which caused premature childbirth ; further, on refusing to give up her ticket, she was roughly handled b the station-master. The judge of the court was of opinion t hat the plaintiff's wife had brought the injuries upon herself by getting out of the train at the wrong aide : that she ought to have remained in the earriage, and if carried further than she had contracted for, to have then brought her action for damages ou that account against the company. Notwithstanding this opinion of the judge, the jury returned a verdica for the plaintiff, damages eil. ; and the judge, after a little hesitation, granted coats.

In another room, on the Longstairs, he found four beds, and outside the door there were fool. sties.—Mr. M'Kelvin stated that there were, to his know ledge, rooms in which as many en 20 persons slept every night. lie made other statements to show the wretched ness of the domestic life of thousands of the inhabitants, and concluded with a sulogiuni on the medical profession , so being alwaf ad orentset to every good work.—lt was resolved theta Wor king Metes Association be established.
