&now, or to those 'important textile manufactures carried wo by the neighbouring manufacturing towns. Tour memorialists acknowledge that in collecting speci mens from different exhibitors for the purpose, as they sup peer, of founding a museum of arts and manufactures, that ; you ue proceeding in the direction of education, but they are fully convinced that such collections can only be made efficiently wan' when used as a basis of instruction, and that as a mere collection they cease to he of much import une. in the advancement of industry. Your memorialists therefore present these points for your c onsideration, in order that you may judge whether ar t. and manufactures might not be much promoted by the establishmuit of a central college of arts and manufactures in connexion with provincial schools for the same object. They consickr that the schools of design might be made the nuclei fur this more extended system of education, and that designers themselves would be benefited by being taught the pnricipl‘s of the manufactures for which . they nee after wards to design, because by this means they would better understand its wants and the possibilities of manufacturing processes to carry designs into execution. They consider Out if these branch institutions and the central;college were united into one university of arts and manufactures+, ens. powered to make examinations and grant certificates to those who showed sufficient knowledge, that an impulse and posi tion would be given to manufacturing science which could not fail to be of benefit to the progress of interest. Your memorialists would therefore submit these views to your hon. board, in the full conviction that your judg ment will best mature the details necessary to carry into ef fect the most efficient plan for industrial education. Exiiintrios FETE.—Last night an entertainment, denominated n Banquet and Fete of All Nations, was held at Soyer's Symposium, Gore-house, Mr. G. Thompson, presiding. The chairman, in proposing the health of the Queen seal his Royal Highness Prince Albert, referred to the deep interest wench they had shown throughout in the success of the Great Exhibition—an interest which he was sure would be appreciated by all the exhibitors, whe ther native or foreign. The toast was received with the utmost enthusiasm. The health of the exhibitors was after wards proposed, and was responded to by Mr. Winton, on the part of the English, and by the Count de Lisle on the part of the foreign exhibitors. Mr. Ellis, the vice-president, proposed the health of the artisans, whose skill and labour had con tributed so much, and so effectually, to the completion of the Crystal Palace. Mr. Miller acknowledged the toast. The company immediately lifter returned to the grounds where a brilliant display of fireworks took place.

Great alarm was produced at Bristol, at an early hour yes terday morning, in consequence of its becoming known that the manufactory and machine chops belonging to Divan. laaverton and Co., the extensive bedstead, chair, and furniture manufacturers, and situate in Reelcroas-street, St. Phillips, were on fire, nod in peril of immediate de struction. The conflagration was discovered at between 2 leml 3 o'clock a.m., and the police rapidly spread the in tellige nee through the city, while messengers were despatched bet' the city and other public fire-engines, which lost no time in repairing to the spot. A plentiful supply of water wa , obtained from the °lugs of the water company, and the exertions of the firemen and constables were firs do,,t, .1 to an effort to arrest the progress of the flames in the baileliuga themselves, so as to prevent, if possible, the destruction of the expensive lathes, flock mills, and other machieu rye used in the manufacture, and with which the manufactory was filled. The timber and other materials bent of a combustible nature this was soon found to be im practicable. By about half-past 3 o'clock the manufactory pre a Med one mass of flame, while huge columns of sparks were thrown up almost every moment, threatening with the mat imminent danger a number of houses, nearly all Milani of considerable antiquity, which were clustered around it. By great exertions the houses were kept from • although many of them sustained damage. The original fire could not be subdued until the entire building mot the whole of the machinery was destroyed. The I.as erten were insured in the Sun Fire-office. The dariage done is over 2,00 W. SstainS ACCIDENT.—STREET ORGANS.—Vegter da evening, as Mr. Louth, of 127, New-road, Chelsea, was dosing his horse and gig, in l'iccadilly, the animal WNW at the sound of a barrel-organ, and became totally alma uageable. darting off at a furious pace towards Regents sit, wield' was thronged with people and vehicles. Nomosos teee'ei.:ons took place, and several persons were knotimi dean and mush hurt, the body of the gig was separated by coming is contact with a heavily laden waggon, anti YR. Louth seriously injured. The horse, with shafts doling at his heels, was not secured till he reached Charing-ereas. Two persons, Mr. and Mn. Davis, of Turpin's coffee-house, Gilbert's-passage, Oxford-street, who were knocked down at the Regent-circus, were removed to Charing-cross Hos pital in a very dangerous condition. ACCIDE.NT TO WaTEaLoo-BarDcz.—Yesterday af ternoon, a little after 3 o'clock, as Waterloo-bridge was par ticularly crowded by the passengers of a foreign excursion train from Southampton, the boom of a barge was seen ap proaching the footway, on a level with the heads of pedes trians; and in another moment three of the heavy granite copng stones of the bridge were knocked off, and sent rolang among the passers by. Happily no one was struck, as. trum the massive character of the stones, no damage re sulting from a blow could have been trivial. The barge, it appeared, was proceeding towards the bridge with a freight of ranch stone, intended for deposit around the piers, to protect them from the loosening effects of the tide and stream. The boatmen, intending to bring her to, cast out an author, which, however, failed to retain its hold; and the and rigging, having been heedlessly left up, the acci dua inevitable. FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT ON THE TINE.—On Monday afternoon • melancholy and fatal accident hap peeed off Ilowdon Pan, about five miles from Newcastle, down the river Tyne. A steam boat called the Imperial Was engaged to leave a village called Willington, to pro ceed to Marsden, a summer resort on the Durham coast. She bail got ber cargo on board, and was dropping down the river when a boat, heavily laden, put off from East Bowdon to her. The boat, which was pulled by a man of the name of Paige, and contained 17 passengers, had got from the shore into deep water, and was pulling round a ship's stern, with her gunwales deep in the water, when she gave a lurch, capsized, and threw the whole of the passengers and gentler man into the water. The greate.t consternation prevailed on board the steam• boat, the screams of the females on board and those in the water scion bringing a number of ships' boats to their assist ance. With great exertions ten of the poor creatures were tocrud. The other seven were drowned—five females, one lean, and a little boy. A person got hold of the man by the hat, but it came off, and the poor fellow sunk and nevermore tome up. The names of those drowne3 are Mary Emmy, Mary Bell, Sarah Elliott, Elisabeth Stoker, James Grey, a little boy about 11 years of age, Elizabeth Gardner, and a strange man, name unknown. There is no doubt bat that this accident has been caused by the cupidity of the watermvs, as the boat was not calculated to hold ware than half the number she had on board. GREENWICH BATHS AND WASH-GOVSEe.—This establishment, which has been erected at a cost of less than lus.sol., including the purchase of the freehold, was opened on Monday : it contains 42 separate, and two large plunge laths, with about 20 wash-tubs. The building steads at the west entrance of tho town, and nearly opposite to the 1-4. : eruy st a ti on .

EVANGELICAL ALLIANCE. The sittings of the Evangelical Alliance were re- Rifted Great morning, at 10 o'clock, in Freemasons'. hall, Great Queen-street, and the meeting was devoted to the conference of Jewish converts to Christianity. The Rev. It. H. HERSCHELL, who presided, ob served that, as the Evangelical Alliance had formed it , self especially with the view to afford au opportunity for the interchange of kindness and brotherly love, it was thought the best course would be to entrust their object to the com mittee of that Alliance if they would carry it out as a part of their plan. Would it have been right when days had been set apart by the :Alliance for the representatives of different nations to state what was doing in their respective countries, that the Jews should be left out ? The proposal had been immediately acceded to by the committee, and they had afforded to his brethren of Israel that opportunity, for which he now desired publicly to express their sincere thanks. He hoped the meeting would prove not only a blessing to Israelites but to Gentiles also ; the rev. gentle man concluded with an extemporaneous prayer. The Rev. ALFRED EDERSHEIM else offered up a prayer. Dr. CAPADOSE, of the Hagar, then &livered an ad dress on the destiny of the Jewish nation, in relation to the church of Christ, and said that the future destiny of the Jewish nation would be that of a nation restored, was illustrated by the resurreetiou of Christ, and that the period was not very distant was shown by the present development of the church of Christ in the Evangelical Alliance which had brought together the people of God from all countries to unite in the name of the Lord, and iu Olt fact that so many of the present generation of Israel:ties hal collected together here from various nod distant parts of the world, to testify that Christ was the true Messiah, and the saviour of slaters. The Rev. NATHAN DAVIS, a missionary of the established church of Scotland, then addressed the meeting on the condition of the Jews in Africa, who he said were covered with Mahommedau darkness. The reverend gentleman. after briefly referring to the ancient history of the Jews in North Africa and the attempts that had been made to convert them in tke sixth century, said that in 1813 he went to North Africa for the purpose of establish ing a mission at Tunis, and he found that the population of Jews on the while coast from Tangier to Egypt amounted to 800,000. Ile regretted to add that there were only fear missionaries to that population, for what could be expected to be accomplished when the number of labourers was so scanty? Ile began by visitbig the Jews in their houses, distributing tracts and circulating the Holy Scriptures among them, but he stion found that it was of the last im portance he should turn his attention to the rising genera tion. In two years he had succeeded in establishing two schools in Tunis for 100 girls and 100 boys. (Hear, bear.) There were some Homan catholic children, and when Ad miral Christian visited the 'cheat he said that more good had been done in Tuuis than had been accomplished in a number of years and with a great expenditure in Ireland. As all the Jews were superstitious, and devoted to the doctrines of the Talmad, the course he pursued was to teach them the doctrines of the New Testament through the medium of the Old restament, where all the truths were contained. He hod almost estab lished a Hebrew Christian congregation, for be had had Jewish hearers to Lis lectures. In a short time he succeeded in convincing some of them of the truth of Chris tianity, and iu three months he was privileged to admit four Jews iota the Christian church by baptism. The mission was flourishing, when the powers of Satan inter fered to destroy it. The converted Jews were excommuni cated by the rabbis, the authorities of the city were bribed to oppose the mission, and he was sorry to say that the consul-gene ral of this country opposed it too. One of the Jews was bastinadoed on the soles of his feet, which were lacerated ; another was thrown into prisou ; and a third was actually on the point of execution on account of his faith. He then wrote to the consul, re minding him of what Sir Stratford Canning had done to se cure religious toleration, hut it had no effect ; and he shortly found that the safety of the Jewish converts de pended upon his leaving Tunis as soon as possible. The result was that the whole establishment was broken up ; and there was now not a single missionary there. Ile made representations in Scotland, and the General Assembly had a conference with Lord Palmerston, but did not succeed in obtaining redress, probably because there was no alliance between them. '1 he Jews in North Africa were in a de plorable condition, and he exhorted all Christians to exert themselves fur the benefit of those poor perishing souls, and to send them that gospel which was salvation. The Ike. F. C. EWALD, chaplain to the Bishop of Je rusalem, described the state of the Jews in the holy Land, where h e bad resided for the last 10 years. The Jew was inseparably connected with Jerusalem, and nothing could separate him from the idea of Jerusalem. Every pious Jew prayed three times a-day that God might rebuild Jerusalem, and return it to the hands of Israel. Aud where should thc Jewish heart be, if not in Jerusalem, where their holy pro phets walked and proclaimed the corning of Him whom the believing Jew now adored, the Lord Jesus Christ? It was not till after the Mahommedan conquest that the Jews went to reside in Jerusalem. They naturally sought for a settlement in such places as were connected with their his tory. They were first found settled at liebrtion, and there were now about 600 there. There were about 8,000 at Je rusalem, and many were settled at Tiberius, where they lived among the tombs of their great men, waiting for the coming of the Messiah, which they believed would bo in Galilee. In Saffet there were about 2,000, and in the four cities Hcbraon, Jerusalem, Tiberius, and Sahet there were now, upon the whole, in the Holy Land about 12,000 Jews. The Jews in the Holy Land followed no trades, but were supported by the contri butions of Jews over the whole world, which were distri buted among them acco-ding to ancient and established haws, and which there was an agency for collecting at dif• Meat stations. They read and prayed day and night. That was literally true. Christianity had done wonders mmeng the Jews in Jerusalem. The CHAIRMAN then, in the name of his believing brethren, expressed their sincere thanks to the church composed of various branches, but forming one church of Christ, and to the Christian societies who bad limited for the purpose of promoting Christianity among the Jews, for the many proofs they had given of Christian sympathy, and for the labour of love the y . bad entered neon . There were now between fifty and sixty missiona ries, principally converted Jews, who were now employed in that labour of love among their brethren. He also ex pressed the thanks of the believing Israelites to the free church of Scotland, the established church of that country, and the Scottish societies, for their exertions in the propa gation of Christianity among the Jews, and likewise their gratitude to the Evangelisation Society fee the strong aid they had given, and to the committee and council of the Evangelical Alliance for their endeavours to promote Chris tian union. The Rev. Mr. ile'scheU then quitted the chair, which was taken by the Item. Dr. Da COSTA, of Amsterdam. The Rev. Dr. 241.111311 moved a resolution to the effect that the conference welcomed with joy those of the home of bmael there assembled who believed in Jesus Ch owl reedved them as brothers in Christ; that tha okfltlaem should be expressed to God for the work that had been wee& _amongst them in these latter days, and that prayer be up that God would hasten tho time when lend imbibe med. eM Tbe sualatios wee seconded by the Hon. and Raw. RAPTI , t Nom, and carried. The Be,. Mr. BROOKE, of Avelino, moved the second eseelation, which was to the effect that the conference being lelleosied in the cause of Israel would impress more strongly Um. dabs' of the Jewish nation on the symp athies of all Due Christians, end express their hope that, in obedience to the command of the Saviour, all of them would use their best endeavours to further the gospel among the Israelites, and their anxious wish that ministers of all branches of the church of Christ should co-operate in those endeavours. The Rev. ALFRED EDERSHEIM seconded the resolu tion, which he considered of great importance. The resolution was supported by Mr. ALEXANDER Lan, which was put and carried. This concluded the morning business so farm it concerned the Jewish conference, and Dr. Da Costa quitted the chair, which was assumed by Sir Ceara:co EU/JUST as chairman of the Evangelical Alliance. Mr. DICKENSON, who announced himself as belonging 10 *0 Moravian body, said he had been struck by the re tinae; te the abominable practices of the Greek church in Jorembols. end he wished to ask whether it was the cus tomer the duty of the Evangelical Alliance to admit and telegeise in their association the members of that idolatrous leaped the Greek church ? sea discussion, Dr. STEIN said the answer to the gissoiss siss list no person was admitted into the Ent. MAMsnee as being the member of any particular whether established or dissenting. The Evangelical Mises knew seething whatever of church membership, ad oR that was required of a person des t ir i ng admission we a declaration of assent to the doctrinal basis of the rillemee, and that he should be recommended as a person of Obeiliesi character. Same routine arrangements having been made for the blares of the morrow, the chairman announced theta de -I=swould be sent to attend the meetingof the Gamest teion, to be held on the 16th inst., at Elbersfelt, When the 11ev. JAMEd Couxce took the chair, and the , mearkis for the Jewish Conference re-assembled. De. BAIRD gave a short account of what had been done ha Meerica with respect to the case of the Israelites. It EPSON long that the American churches had felt an inte rest on behalf of their Jewish brethren, and the reason was, that there had been until lately very few Jews in America. But within the last nine or ten years the interest had greatly increased, for during that time the number of Jews led barged augmented. A few years ego there were only mete 000 or 5,000 Jews in the United States, and now lbws mom more than 100,000 of them. They were not de loused la America from holding any . offhte, and they might WWl** °lice of sheriff. They might be members of the hear, hear)—and so far as the kw stood a Jew ilidar bsoTim ( e president of the United States. (Hear, hoeM)L empened by the bet report alibi society for the the ipopel ammo Jews teal they had in their esswi lliam e lib i l e I pause. all et elm. save eon were converted Jews. The mbiemeable bail awned that in one phase 16 Jewish families had beim to frequent Christian pieces of worship, and .that toms had ermined their faith is Jesus Christ as the ; and the taterestios het was mentioned that the gee* lied been reed sad 'embed by the missionaries in J IhmißAMbr Omemited Ibat duty should read the scriptures dorm. One of the nelasionaries had told him that he had found great willing , mess among the Jews of New York to bear him on the salliset of salvation by Jesus Christ, and that he had li ov e isprins be received by them with the greatest kind r:l ARLES beepltali. Rev. CHARLES SCHWARTZ, missionary from the tree church of Scotland, gave a description of the coodition of the Jews in Holland. His opinion was, that It would be unnecessary to send mbsiono- ries among the Jews in a country • here the church was protestant, if that church did its duty by them ; but the church of Holland did not do its duty towards:the Jews, and, therefore, agents were necessary if it were desired to place the gospel in their hands. The Rev. Mr. BELSON proposed a resolution to the effect that the committee considered it desirable that a spirit of unity should exist among the missionaries of the various societies for the conversion of the Jews, for that it would strengthen the hands of the missionaries themselves, and enable them to communicate with one another. The Rev. F. GOTTILEIL seconded the resolution, which VII carried. Another resolution was proposed by Mr. STEUNBIII7IIB, and supported by the 11ev. Mr. Ileasenzu., to the effect, that au effort should be made by the conference to establish a more permanent union among believing Jews in all coun tries, and to form en association for that purpose, consisting of a central committee in London, and of members in the different countries of Europe. Mr. IiERSCUELL read the names of the gentlemen he proposed should be appointed, and said ho attached great importance to the resolution. The lice. Mr. DOBSON, the secretary, started a doubt whether it was a resolution which ought to be carried at that meeting, as it pledged the council, who bad not yet been consulted, and advised that it should be postponed. I Ultimately an alteration was agreed to limiting the reso lution to the expression of a wish that such an effort should be made to establish a permanent union, the operative part of the resolution being thus deferred for a future conside ration. The meeting separated about half-past 9 o'clock. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1851. HEALTH OF LONDON DURLNO THE WEEK. (Prom the Uncial Rep et.) The weekly reports have not been recently of the moat favourable character. During five weeks that have run since July 26, the deaths, except in one instance, have ranged above 1,001 ; in the week ending August 16, they reached 1,061, and in the week which ended last Saturday they again rose to the same number. The 1,061 deaths now returned indicate, not only a high rate of mortality, fur London as compared with more open districts of the country, but an increased amount as measured by former experience iu the metropolitan districts, at the same season of the year. In the corresponding week of 1849, when epidemic cholera had nearly attained its highest point, 2,796 deaths were registered in London ; but with that and another exception the deaths in the corresponding weeks of 1811-60 did not reach 1,000, and were generally under 900. Of the whole number of persons who died last week nearly one half had not completed their fißh year of ex istence. Of the whole number of deaths more than one-third are classed as caused by epidemic diseases, among which diar- Acre, cholera, and typhus, predominate. This class, which numbered 314 in the previous week, has risen to 378; It in cludes small-pox, which was fatal in 17 cases, measles, scar latina, hopping-cough, which count respectively 18, 20, and 26, while 6/ cases are due to typhus, remittent, end other fevers, 174 to diarrhma, 7 to dysentery, and 28 to cholera. Of the 28 persons who died of cholera, it is shown that 10 were 28 years of age or upwards; the remaining 18 were, with only one exception, infants under I year. With refe rence to the 10 adults, the illuess (inclusive of previous diarrhea in those instances where it is stated to have existed) lasted in one case 12 hours, in une 31 hours, in two cases 31 days, in ono case ri days, in one 6 days, in use 7 days, in two' 8 nays, and in one 2.3 days. Of the two casts of shortest duration, one occurred amongst the Greenwich pensioners, and another, described as " Asiatic," in Herbert-street, Horton. Ten pensioners died in the Royal Hospital, Greenwich, between the 22nd and 27th of August ; one at the age of Wynn, another 61, and the rest between 71 and 80 years. The births of 702 boys and 699 girls, in all 1,101 children, were registered in the week. The average number in six corresponding weeks of 1815-30 was 1,320. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.705 in. Tho mean temperature was only 56.4 degs., which is nearly 4 degrees below the average of corresponding weeks in ten years. The mean daily temperature on the last four days of the week was 61.1 degs., 34.4 degs., 49.4 dogs., and 32.3 degs. On Thursday it was nearly 6 degs. below the average of the same day, on Friday nearly 11 degs., and on Saturday nearly 3 degs. below the average. Tho wind was generally in the west, but towards the end of the week was in the TIM WESLEYAN REFORM MOVEMENT. —The division in the Wesleyan body which took place upwards of two years ago still continues ; and, owing to the proceedings of the late Wesleyan conference at Newcastle-on-Tyne, an impetus has been given to the movement, which threatens to render it more general. Some time before the conference delegates were appointed to proceed to Newcastle, with a view of coming to some understanding with the magnates of the Wesleyan body, but failing in this, they returned to their constituents ; and a meeting was summoned last eve ning at St. Martin's Hall, Lon -acre, for the purpose of receiving their report. The chair was taken by Mr. J. Ilarrison, who said that the progress of the movement was most encouraging, and there never was so great a determi nation to carry it forward. Their triumph was all but an accomplished fact; it was only a question of time. (Ap plause.) Mr. Child, one of the delegates, said, they had come to a unanimous resolution, that there should be no sur render, no supplies. (Loud cheers.) lie did not believe the conference party would come to terms; but he was convinced that if they did not, the result would be a break-up of the society. (Hear, hear.) The request of the delegates that the conference would entertain the claims they had to prefer ou the part of the Wesleyan people had been met with a contemptuous refusal. Thereupon the delegates had assembled, to the number of upwards of 300, and had come to a series of resolutions, to the effect that they would not seek to establish a new society, but would per sist in the movement with increased vigour, and would take steps (or raising a fund, which should be devoted to the sending of agents all over tho country, and taking other steps for promoting their views. They Lad now nearly 1,9001. in hand.—Mr. Nicholls, another delegate, followed.' —Mr. Dennis moved a resolution deploring the spirit in which the preachers' conference had repulsed the peoples' committee of privileges (the delegates) in their attempt to obtain a consideration of the people's claims, and thanking Dr. Beaumont and others who supported the delegates in seeking fur an arrangement with the conference.—Mr. Browning seconded the resolution, which was unanimously agreed to. Other resolutions fur carrying out the object of the meeting were passed. A VARIETY OF CHANCES have just taken place in the Excise branch of the Inland Revenue Department. The whole of the solicitors' offices, with the clerks and others attached thereto, have been removed to Somerset House ; by which means the entire management of the legal business of the Inland Revenue will be concentrated 1 in one establishment, sad not divided, as has been the case since the amalgamation of the stamps and taxes depart ments. Several of the receivers of the minor taxes in the stamps and taxes will occupy the place vacated in the office in Broad-street, and the whole of the legal business will be conducted by Mr. Timm and Mr. Tilsey, as solicitor and assistant solicitor to the joint department. Dr. Bate• man, assistant-secretary of the Excise branch, we hear, will retire ; and other arrangements are in contemplation for reducing the charges of this establishment. The detective staff has also been reduced; but this appears a very anomal ous movement, when it is considered that adulteration in nearly all the exeiseable necessaries, or luxuries of life, has been proved to exist to as great an extent at the present time as ever it did under the most careful supervision.— Globe. ADDTTIONAL SCIENTIFIC ATTRACTION IN LEICES TER-EQUARE.—A correspondent "That extensive piece of waste land upon the east side of Leicester-square, next to Sablonnire's Hotel, which has so long been debateable ground for lawyers, is now in the occupation of the 11°131 Panopticon of Science and Art, for which a charter of in corporation has been granted. This corporation, besides several noblemen as patrons distinguished for their love of science, embodies within its council as president, a member of the family of the Messrs. beams the bankers ; and as vice-president, one of the well-known capitalists, the Messrs. Gurney, of Lombard-street. Interesting, intellec tual, and at the same time moral exhibitions in the several branches of natural philosophy, industry, and the fine art., are, it la stated, to be the principal objects of consideration, and amongst the names of - a numerous corps of associates are several of the Royal Academicians, Baily, Daniel Macßae, C. Landsecr, D. Roberts, Its. Sir George Smart appears to represent the musical department ; and Messrs. Msmpratt and lire the chemical." FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENT AT lELNGSWOOD, . . ' stx•iiansvOi.—On Monday a melancholy accident, of which a brief notice appeared in yesterday's Express, occurred at the Deep l'it, at Kingawood, four miles from Bristol. Between the hours of 2 and 3 o'clock in the after noon, • " turn " of nine persons were coining up the main shaft, and had mind in safety as far as " the stage " where the men get out, at the top of the shaft, when the bolt of the reversing handle broke. The engineer who was " hauling up " seized the " eccentric " with his hands, and tried to lilt the men up, but finding the effort too much for his strength he called to a man named Geo. King, who immediately came to his assistance; but, before they could bring their united strength to bear, the bucket was carried over the wheel, and the unfortunate accident had taken place. The names of the men in the bucket were Bryant, Stone, Dix, Bright, Wiltshire, English, Newman, and two relatives named Parker. Newman, when the bolt broke, seeing the danger of being drawn over the " shiver wheel," attempted to save himself by jumping off, but, falliug short, he was precipitated down the shaft a ' depth of 147 fathoms, and was dashed to pieces. Stone escaped uninjured by jumping off, as did also a lad named Bryant. The other poor fellows were carried over the "shiver wheel," and together with the iron bucket, weigh ing 3; cwt., were thrown on to the ground a distance of 26 feet. They were all very much injured, and were con veyed as speedily as possible in carts to the Bristol Royal Hospital where every attention was paid to them. It was found on examination that Dix was suffering . from • compound fracture of both bones of the right leg, • fracture of the right thigh, extensile lace rated wounds of the left leg, and contusion of the scalp. His leg has since been amputated by Mr. Morgan, the house surgeon. English had fracture of the scalp, and extensive wound of the cheek, extending right across through the lip, and other injuries. Only feint hopes are entertained of the recovery of either of these men. The others are suffering from severe contusions. The remains of Norman were brought up the shaft shortly after four o'clock, and an inquest will be held on the body as soon as the notice required by law has been sent to the Secretary of State. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. THIS DAY. MANSION-HOP SE. Benjamin Cole, city police-constable 84.5, was re-examined charged with causing the death of William Cogan, by striking him on the head with his truncheon in the passage of the deceased's residence, No. 18, Plumptree-court, Shoe lane, on the morning of the 6th July last. Alderman Wilson said that since the last hearing he had 1 1 taken the depositions with him into the country, and had gone over them very carefuly, and he had also visited the houses No. 12, 18, and 28, so as to test the contradictory evidence of the police as to the witnesses for the prosecution, swearing that they observed front 28 what took place in the passage of the deceased's residence. Now, he bad gone over these places, and he felt satisfied that what those witnesses swore as to their being able to see, was perfectly correct, and he could not explain the distinct oath of the po liceman 225, in swearing that nothing could be seen from those passages. Mr. Lewis, for the prisoner, expressed a hope that if his worship intended to commit, he would not gave an opinion upon the case, as the observations would get into the papers and prejudice the prisoner. Alderman Wilson had not as yet stated what he intended to do ; be was merely summing up the depositions. The magistrate then went into the case in detail, and concluded by stating that he was convinced that the external injuries upon the head of the deceased had been inflicted by the prisoner Cole. Those external injuries corresponded with the internal injuries ; but it was a question to be decided from what causes the man came by his death, and, under all the circumstances, he would not be doing his duty if he did not commit the prisoner upon the charge of man slaughter. Mr. Lewis—l hope the same amount of bail will be ac cepted. Alderman Wilson—No, not in an important case like this. I shall require the prisoner, himself in 2001., and two sureties in 2001. ; in all, 4001. I will, however, take four persons in NI. each, and himself in 200!., for the prisoner's appearance at the next masons of the Central Criminal Court. The hail was put in, and the witnesses were bound over to prosecute. BOW-STREET. W. Deigdale, No. 37, Holywell-street, Strand, was charged with exposing for sale indecent prints and ether articles of an immoral tendency. Mr. Neale, on the part of the So ciety (or the Suppression of Vice, attended to support the charge. Sergeant Chadwick, F 2, said that the previous evening he proceeded to the house of the prisoner fur the purpose or making a seizure, when he was accompanied by several constali:es. Upon arriving there be saw a man of the name of Sharp, who is in the prisoner's service, and who upuu I observing witness went into the house. lie (wit ness) remained outside a few minutes, not being able to obtain admission. The door was at length opened by the prisoner, who said, "Now, Chadwick, you can come in." Witness went into the parlour, where he found sonic books and prints which lie seized. Upon entering the kitchen he took a book from the fire, which was partly con sumed. (This and the other books, Itc., were produced.) Among the cinders in the grate was a large quantity of burnt paper, which had only been recently destroyed. He proceeded to some rooms up stairs, where he tound nu merous other publications, all of which he conveyed away. Mr. Henry asked the prisoner what defence he had to make. _ . Ihe prisoner stated that one of the books produced was met with in the shops of some of the most rupeetable book sellers, and were repeatedly sold by auction. Another hook was a elaxsical work, and was very scarce. (This was sold for a guinea.) Mr. henry directed the prisoner's attention to the prints. The prisoner remarked that many were copies from statues in the Exhibition, and illustrations of them might be seen no some weekly publications. Mr. Henry observed that there were several of a most disgusting character, and had evidently an immoral ten , deney. The prisoner said that the latter were not for sale. Mr. Neale, in answer to the magistrate, said that the pri soner had been summarily convicted for a similar offence, and that he had promised not to offend again. The prisoner was held to bail, himself in 1001., and two sureties of 501. each, to answer the charge at the Westmin ster Sessions. TILE LONDON AND NORTII-WESTERN, MIDLAND, AND GREAT NORTHERN RAILWATS.—MT. Gladstone, to whom the question of the division, between the above com panies, of the through traffic between London and York, Leeds, Wakefield, Sheffield, Doncaster, and Lincoln, was raerred, has made his award. We understand the sub stance of the award to be as follows .—.l.mming the through traffic between the places mentioned to represent 600, the Great Northern ore in the passenger receipts to take 4GO parts, and the London and North Western and Midland, 110 parts ; and of the goods receipts the Great Northern ate to take 300, and the London and North- Western and Midland 210 parts.—Morning Herald. CIIESTER AND HOLTDEAD.—It appears, from the statement of revenue account for the half-year ending 30th June last, that the balance in favour of the past six months' working of the railway is '28,477/. 19s. Id., and that the balance against the half-y'ar'n working of the steam-boats is 2,1311. os. Bd. The net profit, therefore, on the half year's working is 26,0161. 13s. sd. Of this balance of *26,016/. 13s. M. ' about 24,7001. will be absorbed by the half-year's interest on debentures ; so that out of the profit of the six months' working about 1,3001. will he left for interest on the 51 per cent. preference shares. It will be recollected that last half-year, by bringing forward 51,2331., the balance of traffic account previous to the opening of revenue, less 15,0921., which con sisted of outstanding liabilities and debts agaiust revenue, the company were enabled to pay 16s. 6d. per share to the preference shareholders, leaving a balance of 3,7811. to the credit of revenue. The available balance of the revenue account is, consequently, something over 8,0001., out of which the company have to meet the arrears on the prefer ence shares from 30th June to 31st December, 1350, and to pay the preference interest for the past half-year. The past half-year's interest on the 51 preference capital is 17,3701. TIM CAMEL Row IN LEEDS.—Contrary to ex pectation Mr. Whitehead, the chief clerk of the Board of Works, has, by the advice of friends, refused to receive the apology tendered by Mr. Prcst, the lawyer, who forcibly ex pelled him from the Stock Exchange, whilst attempting to bring Dr. Cahill to task for his atrocious and sanguinary letter to the people of Ireland ; and on Friday last an as sault warrant was issued by the Leeds justices against the assailant. The ease came on for hearing on Saturday, be fore the mayor (Mr. George Goodman), Mr. Shaw, Mr. Clapham and Mr. Hall. The complainant was supported by Mr. gond and Mr. Barrett, solicitors ; Mr. Frost was his own legal adviser. The facts sworn to were in substance that as soon as Mr. Whitehead proposed to question Dr. Cahill as to whether he was the author of the infamous letter, and had read a few words from it, he was seised by Mr. Prest and other Roman catholics moving in a respec table sphere, and forcibly dragged from the room. For the prosecution, Mr. Bond attempted to read the extract, more than once, but against this the defendant vehemently protested, and succeeded in stopping the public reading of the Christian-like sentiments of Dr. Cahill. The assault was proved—in fact, was not denied; and the defence set up was, that the room had been taken, not by Dr. Cahill, but by the committee of the Leeds Catholic Literary Insti tute, of which committee Mr. Prest was one: therefore, that the room was at the moment in the legal possession of Mr. Prest, amongst others, and that he had a rigbt to expel any one who made himself obnoxious to the committee or the lecturer. After a long discussion the magistrates de cided that Mr. Prest had this authority ; that Mr. White head had no right to put the questions to Dr. Cahill with out fiat obtaining permission, and therefore they disfaissed the case. Mr. Bond protested that the decision was con trary to law ; but the defendant adroitly availed himself of the dismissal of the warrant by demanding of the bench a certificate of the decision, which would bar further proceed ings. This was granted. The Roman catholics are in high glee at this " glorious victory," as they term it. EMIGRATION FROM SlEYE.—William H. G. Kingston, Esq., whose name is so well known in conuexion with emigration to the Australasian colonies, having ar rived in Skye on a mission from her Majesty's Colonial Land and Emigration Commissioners, a meeting was held in the court-room at Portree, on Wednesday , the 20th alt.,to consider the subject of emigration, now so peculiarly in teresting with reference to the distressed condition of the population of the Hebrides. Though called together with little or no previous intimation, the meeting was nume rously and respectably attended. Mr. Fraser, the sheriff substitute of the district, was in the chair. The meeting resolved to form a society, for the purpose, iu the first place, of ascertaining the views of the people, and affording them all necessary information ; in the second place, for the purpose of negotiating in the behalf of intending emi grants with the emigration commissioners as to the facilities to be obtained from them ; and in the third place, communi cating with the proprietors of the island, and, if necessary , appealing to government for such additional aid as may be required. A numerous committee was named, of which the sheriff consented to act as chairman, with power to add numbers, and to organise sub-committees in all parts of the island. It was arranged that the general committee should meet at Portree on Wednesday, the 27th of August, and on every alternate Wednesday thsreeter, to communicate with intending emigrants, and otherwise to carry out the I views of the society.—lneerness Courier. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.—The revision of the lists of voters for the next session cannot commence before the 15th instant, and must be concluded by the 31st October. In the late session an act was passed to exempt burgesses and freemen in certain eases from the operation of an netl for the better assessing and collecting ot the poor rates and highway rata in respect of small tenements. tinder the Reform Act burgesses and freemen had a reserved right of voting, including liverym en of the City of London ; and by another act, 13 and 14 % ie. c. 99, such person, were only to retain the right while qualified oa the ground of rates. It is provided by the present act (14 and 15 Vie. c. 39) that the right of voting reserved by the provisions of the 2 and 3 W. Ili. c. 45 to persons then entitled is not to be affected by the change of rating under the 13 and 14 Vie. c. 99. L oiler the word " tenement" an apartment may be in cluded. GLASGOW AND BOUTII WESTERN RAILWAY. Traffic for the week ending Aug. 3U:-4,4874 Oe. fhl.; corresponding week in last year, 3,8251. 21.10 d. IRELAND. DUBLIN, SEPT. 2: ' The Cork Examiner says that the vessels of the Cork Steam Company have already conveyed so many as 2,824 persons, who took tickets for London for the purpose of visiting the Great Exhibition. A large number of persons have also proceeded from Cork for the same destination, via Dublin and Holy head. ----- The Dublin Protestant Association have invited a meeting of protestants, to be held in the round room of the Itotundo, this evening, in order "to adopt an address to the government on the conduct of the con stituted authorities in Dublin, in reference to a so called' aggregate meeting of catholies,' on the main tenance by the executive of illegal titles, and on the discouragement of every effort mado to assert the supremacy of the Queen and of the laws." The following paragraph appears in the Western Star, a paper published in llallinasloc : We have seen statements in our contemporaries to the effect that the inmates arc leaving some of the workhouses by the thousand, and this move is attributed to the expecta tion of finding employment at the harvest, and no doubt such is, to a considerable extent, the fact; but we are in a position to state that very many of the parties alluded to arc leaving the workhouses, never to return to them again, and for this very gratifying and cogent reason, that they arc in receipt of remittances from their relations in Ame rica, to enable them to emigrate to that "home of Irish men"—the name now• generally given to the United States by the peasantry. We have heard, and from a sure source, that, within the past six weeks, upwards of 20,000/. have been received, in sums varying from five to thirty pounds, by persons in this county, the great majority of whom had been receiving relief in the workhouses up to the time of the money reaching them. In many cases, the poor people have kept the matter secret, through a mistaken fear that, if it were known by the poorlaw officials, a portion of the money would be impounded to pay fur their keep whilst in the workhouse ' • to guard against which the money is con signed to some third partysome shopkeeper or other per son, who could be depended upon to have it safely conveyed to its intended destination, without the knowledge of the workhouse officers. . _ ...... Some of the flour millers in Ulster (says the Ulster Ginette) purpose effecting improvements in the machinery of their mills, with a view to enable them to compete more effectively with their Gallic rivals. Mr. W illiam Cullen, millwright, of this city, who has prow d himself an ingenious mechanist, is at pre sent in London, for the purpose of inspecting the flour-mill machinery of French manufacture which is exhibited at the Crystal Palace. T. Wilson, Esq., a kind and considerate landlord, purposes, says the same journal, establishing an in dustrial school on his property, situated in the neigh bourhood of Tassa. The Lord Chancellor, at the recommendation of the lieutenant of the county, has appointed Sir Love lace Stainer, Dart., to be a magistrate of the county of Dublin.

The rank of the company assembled may be judged from the fact that the tea and coffee served on the occasion was only charged for at the small rate of one penny per cup. The illustrious Father Kenyon was one of the invited, but, in his letter apol;gising for his absence, he says: Ho Id' ing Linn by my faith by John Mitchel's principles, but utterly despairing to witness their prevalence, I have for three years abstained from polities except on a few occasions, when they seemed as if to force them selves upon me. I thought that absolute rest would become the country better, and be more likely also to serve it in the end, than any agitation that could be reasonably expected ; and the present con dition of things in Ireland seems to me to justify the course which I have adopted—for the two groat movements which now divide the popular attention I account entirely retrograde and entirely wrong. Respecting the Tenant League, you will probably have learned from the news. papers how widely I dissent from its principles and policy, and the Catholic Defence Society, not to speak of the abso lute pettiness of its whole scope, is based upon an uncon ditional allegiance to the British crown under any and every contingency. Things being so, my friends, I know not to what purpose, except more clearly to reveal the na kedness of the land, the friends of John. Mitchel could as semble together in public, &c. &c. Yesterday, being the Ist of September, the citizens of Dublin were amused by the proprietors of the several oyster beds ushering in the oyster season with the ancient custom of perambulating the city with a procession of carts ornamented with ever greens, banners, music, &c. MuEnr.n. OF A PAurER.—An inquest has been held at the workhouse, on the body of John Leo nard, who was murderously assaulted by Peter M'lntyre, while conveying the wretched man front Ahascragh to the workhouse, the particulars of which appeared in our last publication. At a little after two o'clock the coroner, Jas. D.PDonogh, Esq., attended, and swore a jury, who at onco I proceeded to view the body. The relieving officer, and the constable of police at Ahaseragh, proved that they gave Leo nard into the charge of M'lntyre, that the latter was not drunk, but that he had the appearance of having drunk some. A man named Groben, who resides near the chapel of Killure, on the direct road to Ilallinasloe, distinctly proved that, opposite to his (Grehan's) house, he saw Leo nard on the road in a very weak state, scarcely able to walk ; that the wretched man had a cut over the right eye ; that he saw ).Plntyre, at a short distance front &ceased, in a very drunken stath ; that be saw 11PIntyrc seize the poor old sickly creature by the back of the collar of his coat ; heard Leonard cry fer mercy, and saw the prisoner throw the deceased down on the roust by a blow; that the de ceased fell on his face, and rema'ned for sonic time in that position, until ho was raised by witness, assisted by another man, and put again into the car. An intelligent little girl was also produced, who swore that she saw ISl•lntyre drunk upon the road; that she saw the deceased upon the ass's car, and also saw the prisoner strike the deceased with a "wattle" across the breast. A policeman proved that, on the arrival of the deceased in Ballinasloc, he saw him in the car ; that the deceased distinctly told him, in the presence a the prisoner, that it was M'lntyre beat him, and gave him the cut over the eye; and lastly, Dr. Burke deposed that he had made a post mortem examination, and his deli b:rate opinion was, that the man's death was occasioned by the blow which lie received over the right eye. The fol lowing is the verdict returned by the jury. It needs no comment, but it significantly shows in what estimation a pauper's life is held, and how lightly a murderous outrage on an aged, a sick, and an attenuated wretch :Al creature is esteemed by those intelligent jurymen. We give the ver dict rerbatim, as returned by the foreman We find tho deceased, John Leonard, came by his death from violence, but have no evidence to show us by whom, but we find it has been brought to a more speedy termination front the bad treatment received at the hands of Peter M'lntyre. For self and fellow jurors, JO/ IN USHER." M'lntyre bas been committed by the coroner on a charge of wilful murder.— West( en Star. THE Citor4.—Several fields of wheat and oats have been cut down in this county. The yield is regarded as an average, and the quality of the grain is excellent. The crops of wheat end oats V.bleh have been reaped on the palace farm, richly repay culture. Some few fields of bar ley have fallen before the sickle. The yield and quality arc alike favourably reported. Potatoes, which have attained to an advanced growth, continue sound; but apprehensions are entertained for the late crop, as in many fields the stalks and leaves are blighted by the cold and somewhat frosty winds. The general report of the grain harvest from the proviuces is favourable. Opinions are divided as to the potato crop. The turnip crop is not turning out well in some districts.— ('later Gazette. A correspondent writes as follons :—" Lurgao, Friday Evenine.—Sruce toy last report reaping has been going on briskly in this part of the coun try, and, although the weather has not been favourable a great breadth of land may be seen dotted with stooks. The flax crop is generally pulled; but, I am sorry to say, that, in the majority ()leases, the seed is not taken off, and there fore lost. The potato crop has suffered much during the last week, and the greater part of the fields are black in the leaves. The progress of the di-ease is slow this year." THE DEANERY OF ARMAGII.—II is stated in the Erazing herald that "The Lord Primate has proposed to the government to let the dignity be elective—the chapter to have the power of choosing a member of its own body— the government receiviugin lieu the patronage of the district of Ballymoyer, recommended by the commissioners, some years since to he severed from the parish of Armagh.
