The logical order of the classification is curious. weed of finding the government School of I ksign, w hich is located at Somerset-house, in the Official i re d o ry,it is placed in the Trades Directory. In this section, among the trades, we have likewise mitte ns, picture galleries, public libraries!

And c eder the head of museums. are named the Dank of Engfand for its coin, Gay's hospital and St. Bar tholemew'a. for their medictue ; and even the Ord- Office, uPall-mal!, for its mechanism, as if the geatlemcn of this department were showmen. The information respecting newspapers and publi carious is most faulty. First, as to otnissionv. The list at once strikes us as not including the 11117111 y rimy, Dogylas jrrrol fs 11: ekly Newspaper, the Daily Nora, established in January, 1816, or the Express. We have no doubt a comparison with a correct list would show many more. The list of pro- Thiele' papers prefesses to give the days and the place at publicateon ; but there are no fewer than twenty-sex eases where the days el publication are wa nting, and several, such as the ...Northern Times, the Shropshire Consereatire, the Staffiev/shire hirer hiser, the Yorkshire (;a:ette, &c., to which no place of publication is attached, so that this Post-office Di rec tory would be no guide whatever for the direc tion of a post letter to theft. It might be expected that we should meet with ac curacy at least in the editor's own department—the Post-Olike ; but even hero errors of all kinds are to be found. Thus, as respects the postage of a newspaper to Lucca (p. 1739), it is not stated what it is, or whether there be none ; whilst the poetage of a news paper to Prussia is given as " free," whereas it should , have been twopence. Credulous citizens following this Directory in such a case, would find that a newspaper to Prussia would never reach its destination. The postage of a letter to Ilamburr, , h is stated to be Bd.; it ought to be 641., and so on. But we must bring oar list of errata to an end, or we shall till our co lumns. We have produced instances enough to show the general untrustworthiness of the book. Before we conclude, we may remark that, in the " Convey ance Directory," in the enumeration of the metropo litan railways, not a word is to be found about the South-Western Railway! Such being the character of this work, which is of the nature of a monopoly, the public have a right to demand one of two things : either that the I'ust ai6es shall cause it to bo made accurate, if it be claimed so an official production; or that Mr. Kelly be no longer protected by the Post-office in what is practically , a monopoly of the work; for it must be observed that all other Direetories,—ROßSON'S, PIGOTT'S, &C.— have been driven out of the field. They could not compete, having no such cheap agency as a postman meaning gratis for them all the year round. We concede at once that it is necessary for the Post-office to collect, for its own information, such details of addresses as thin book supplies. We think it should be made part of the letter-carriers' official duty to collect and report such intelligence often and systematically. There should be no option on the letter-carriers' part to do so. It is possible that an officer of the Post-office might have opportunities for editing the book better th in any one else, if he were zealous and intelligent, and if so, that he ought to he the person deputed by the Post-office to do this work. and perhaps it would be a wise arrangement in order to ensure his constant vigilance, to make his emoluments dependent somewhat on the success of the publication, and therefore adopting the best means for compiling this work at the public expense, and publishing it so as to ensure the utmost perfec tion: all that the public would then have a right to demand is that it shall be sold at the minimum charge. We arc satisfied that the work might be published at least at one-third less than its present price, and still be made to yield a handsome profit. There would be no cost to the publisher in collecting the informatien, and the Post-of ee ought to make arrangements to secure a revision of the work, always to be kept in type, at least every month, if not oftener, and thus guarantee the earliest news of every change. It would, in fact, be the publisher's business only to priat, bind, and sell the book when the greatest issue takes place. The information should always be brought up fresh within a fortnight of publication, which would be perfectly feasible with good arrange ments. As a rule, small. numbers only of an edition should be issued at one time, and the work, besides being published inione volume, should be sold in por tions. Considering that the Post-office has sanctioned the informal arrangement with Mr. KELLY so long, we think that when these changes are made, and made they certainly will be, the first offer of the publication should be given to Mr. KELLY, taking, how ever, every precaution against the repetition, under his editor ship, of such blunders as we have pointed out. Tae receipt of South Australian papers to the 17th of October last enables us to communicate the agree ' - .--- , t-novernor Hoe able intelligence that Lieutenant-s,sess..-... has with true magnanimity and judgment deferred to the unauimous opinion of the colonists, end with drawn the inauspicious Royalties Bill. The South Australian Gazette of 10th October states : The question of the royalties, so fir as it can be decided within the colony, is now settled. They arenot to be imposed. The governor, .with a manliness which does him credit, after performing all that the most exacting colonial minister could expect, to carry out his views, abandoned the measure when he discovered that the resistance to it on the part of the non official members of the council and of the colonists was deter mined and intletiblc. We sincerely hope that the Home authorities may acquiesce in this wise decision of the governor. The bill went to confer upon the crown a right to take one-fifteenth of all ores brought to the pit mouth in the colony. The owners or workers of the mines might obtain leave to pay money in lieu of this exac tion in kind; but the bill makes provision for locating a supervisor within a short distance of every mine. Its object was to have the mines of South Australia worked under an excise. This, as we formerly ob served, is in direct violation of the fundamental laws of the colony, which established an absolute right of property in grantees of land to everything, above or below the surface. And it was an innovation calculated to exercise a prejudicial influence on the progress of the settlement, as even the young experience of Australia may show. Ic New South V. the right to minerals was reserved, and the consequence has been that the valuable coal deposits of that colony are turned to very little account. In South Australia, hitherto, minerals have not been reserved, and that infant colony has already a respect able mining industry. • From the South Australian Gazette of the 17th October, we learn that the red-tapists of the govern ment offices are shocked at the discourtesy and irregu larity of the procedure by which the non-official mem bers of council achieved the defeat of the Royalties Bill. There was nothing illegal in that procedure, and the importance and urgency of the case war ranted their straining courtesy a little. But those com plaints of the officials suggest a more important con sideration than even the freedom of mining enterprise. New Zealand, with from 8,000 to 10,000 colonists, his an elective l eg i s l a t ure ; why should South Australia, with more than double the number, not have an elec tive legislature also? 'fhe proceedings on the ties Bill show that the admission of a non-r= majority into the legislative council is a mere mockery. If these members are simple or supple they only serve to enable the government to act despotically without appearing to do so. If they are honest and "i!urtily, they have no power to interpose legal constitu tmr!al obstacles to despotism, but merely a status which enables them to countenance popular resist ance to authority. Non-official members in a non elective council are of necessity forced to become either agitators or nobodies. Our usual Paris express has reached us. The pro jects of law brought into the French Chambers, with a view to facilitate the supplies of subsistence from abroad, are adopted with as little discussion or delay as those for the relief of Ireland in the British parlia ment. The law throwing open the coasting trade in grain to ships of all nations has been promptly adopted. The elevation of the rate of discount having failed to attain all the desired objects, or rather haring produced inconvenience which did not before exist, a project of law is now under discussion audio mang the bank in Paris to issue notes for 10/. The general rise continues in all the markets of France, and the most serious apprehensions continuo to be entertained as to the practicability of securing sufficient supplies of grain to avert the horrors of a famine before the next harvest. The demand for shipping elsewhere is so extensive, and freights so high, that the hopes which the law just passed ex cited are damped. Although an exact census of the quantity of grain which will still be wanted for the support of the population till July has not been, and probably cannot be, obtained, yet there is no doubt that there is still a large deficiency. The Normanby-Guizot quarrel still continues to engage the attention of the journals in Paris on L'Union Monarchipie says, that a correspondent entitled to confidence has sent front London the fol lowing particulars: On the 19th Lord John Russell sent for Count St. Aulaire, and in presence of two of his colleagues had a long interview with him on the subject of the unhappy quarrel between Lord Normanby and M. Guizot. In this interview, for which Count St. Aulairc was is ,t prepared, thR lead..r of the English calsinit is said to have warmly pleaded the cause of his ambas an for. 't he count listened with open enrs, and stammered forth a few wards which were not cren listened to. Lord J. Russell, feeling no mercy for his mute anguish, dealt blow after blow, and carried despair into the heart of the French ambassador. Firmly rei:lved to lease no doubts in the mind of M. Curettes envoy, he f A.:tinily declared to him that there was a complete and perfect units of action between the Bri tish government and its ambassador; that the cabinet of the Tuileries must not be surprised if, Lord Normanby failing to obtain the satisfaction he demanded, that unity was mani fested in c more direct manner. In other words, Lord John Russell wushrd his hands of all responsibility of the c dew quences which might result from the Normanby affair. Guizot, a cording to the Union Monarchique, received this news on Monday. In this perplexity, it is announced by several journals that an extra ordinary count r was despatched front the Tuileries to Brussels to entreat King Leopold to bring the aid of his counsels without delay to Patio, and it was said that immediately afterwards a special mes senger was despatched from Brussels to the Belgian Embassy in London. On Monday the King and Queen of the Belgians arrived in Paris. e are assured that private letters were received in Paris on Tuesday, staiog that M. Martin du Nord was attacked at his chateau in the provinces with so severe an indisposition, that he was tot expec:ed to survive more than a few days. Letters from Rome mention the intention of the Pontiff to give a municipal constitution to that city. Preparations were also making to introduce gas lighting. The journals and correspondence of Madrid of the 17th inst. were received in Paris on Tuesday. They brought no intelligence of general interest. The Chambers had not y et voted the address, and although it was expected that it would be passed by a con siderable majority, yet many of the sup forcers of the former cabinet had manifested a certain coolness towards the present ministry. General Pezuela, the Captain-General of Madrid, had resigned, and would, it was expected, be suc ceeded either by General Concha or General Armero. It was expected that l)on Miguel might land on the coast of Spain; and orders were accordingly issued to intercept hum. RUSSIA.—ST. PETERSBURG.—Letters from St. Petersburg, Feb. 6, say:—Throe last few days we have had at our court an ambassador from the court of Saxe Alten. burg, M. Von Schrider, who has for many years represented the kingdom of Saxony and the other houses ef that line. It is stated that an alliance is about to he formed with the first of these courts by the marriage of the Grand Duke Constantine with the Princess Alexandrine. The nuptials, however, will not take place for a year and a half or two years, as it is proposed that his imperial highness s'tall set nut upon his voyage round the world early this spring, accompanied by his tutor. M. Von Lutken. The urine. as is expected to arrive here in a fow months, in order to gain instruction iu , the language and religion of her adopted country. IIONIE VlDEO.—Additional advices, received yesterday from Falmouth, confirm the statement we had Previously given, that Messrs. Graham and Brent had failed in their object of mediation between Buenos Ayris and ' Paraguay. Although it is said Lopez had suspended hos tilities, he was still determined on severing Paraguay from the national union. The notables of Monte Video had issued an enactment to sell the stamp, license, and excise re venues for 1849 and 18,50, to supply the expenses of the war.

The annual general meeting of the members of the college was held yesterday at the institution, Gower•street, for the purpose of receiving a report from the council on the present state of the college, and for the election of officers. The report gore a eatisfactory account of the state and prospects of the college. The distribution of academical honours and rewards was satisfactory. Of the 50 graduates of the University of London, 33 had proceeded from University College; and both the scholarships in arut, on taking the B.A. degree, had been awarded to its students; that in mathematics to Mr. Walter llaptiot, that in classics to Mr. W. Ruabton. In mentioning the recent institution of the new pro. frothrthp of the Mechanical Principle* of Engineering, end the appoinunent of the eminent engineer, Mr. Eaton llodskiroan, to that chair, it was explained that his eturne would be auxiliary to those of the tholes..., of Natural Philosophy and a Jed Eurrineerine, treating hi detail of subjects in which be hot distinguished himself by his investigations, discoveries, and writings, and which the mops or the lectures of his colleagues would only admit of their had dentally alluding to. Of the fiances it wax reported that the entire expenditure of the year 11,111 17,373 f., and that the ordinary Income was 14,3101. • that to male up th e deficiency which bail been mainly inc urred for the erection of the Laboratory of chemistry, improvements to the elasasooms, sod aug mentations of prefix-rots' emoluments, the mile of 4001. Corools bad been resorted to. In conclusion the council congratuldid the mass berm of the college on the completion of the rosin buthrour of the hos pital be the erection of them rth wing. The intention of erecting new dispensary mid waiting, roma for the better accommodation of outthauents was announced ; and an ardent appeal for ~o 1 towards accompliatiing that object was made, on the ground that it was one in which the interests of humanity, rather than those of roietce, were • principally concerned. [ Ar, solution was passed for the adoption and printing of [ the report ; a list of donors to the library was read ; and the ballot for o ffi cers then commenced. The following was the result : President, Lord Brougham ; Vice-1 resident, Earl of Auckland, G.C.D. ; Treasurer, J. Taylor, Esq., F.E.S. • Councillors, J. E. Blunt, Esq., Lord Campbell, lion. It. Denman, Earl Fortescue, J. W. Mylne, Esq., 11. Way mouth, Esq. ; Auditor, T. F. Gibson, Esq. ALLEGED DEATH FIIOM POISONOUS MEDI CINE, AND COMMITTAL FOR MANSLAUGHTER. An adjourned inquest was held on Friday hat, by Mr Waleley, M.P., coroner, to investigate the death of Miss Sarah Ellen Collyer, at the Whentsheaf, High-street, Cam den-town. "Dr." Cronin was in attendance, reprmented.by Mr. Tennant, as his professional adviser. Dr. Scolfern, who had been appointed to make a mi nute analysis of the mixture taken by the deceased, and also the bitter almond water used in its composition, was tint called.—He said, I made my analysis at the laboratory of the Pharmaceutical Society, in the presence of D. Venahles, Dr. Cronin, Mr. Weathers, Mr. Bell, and Mr. Tonally. After having explained the analysis mi nutely and technically, the Doctor proceeded to say that not more than four drops of prussic acid of Scheele's strength had been added by Mr. Corteld, the chemist, in dis pensing the medicine tor deceased. I ada (continued witness) tried experiments with the black oxide of iron said to be in the compound powder of strychnia prescribed by " Dr." Cronin, and I find it will not produer prussian blue—A Juror : What would have been the effect et the strychnia powder on the medicine had it been put in?—Dr. Scoffern: The mixture would have been more poisonous—Coroner: Will you state the results of your analysis in plain terms to the jury ? Dr. Scoffern : There were sixty minims, or rather more than one drachm, of Plsarmaeopada prussic acid Mono ounce of the mixture taken by deceased.—toroner : How much would be a dose for en adult?—Dr. Seoffern : We are ordered by the Pharmaeopoia not to give more than fifteen minim , loch is • very large dose. It would be a difficult thing to say how much is • dose of compound strychnia powder. There is no compound powder of strychnia ineutior td in the " British Pharrnacopecia." Mr. Weathers agreed with Dr. Seoffern in every par ticular. Dr. Venables also agreed with the statement of Dr. Seoffern, and added : I bola in my hand " Dr." Croatin's prescription. I have never prescribed bitter almonds water myself, tither externally or int rustily ; hut I have prussic acid. I have never seen it writs, n on any prescription ex cept this. I never knew compound strychnia powder to be used except by 1)r. Cronin. I have purchased some Litter Min .nds waterat Mr. Freach's, the chemist, in Holborn, since the last adjournment. It appears to be the cameos that pre scribed by Dr. Cronin, and was labelled precisely as written in Dr. Cronin's prescription, " aqua amygilake amar.e." It is quite a harmless mixture. A person might take two or throe ounces of it without itlly ill enacts. Dr. Crania : That is exactly tie point. I deny that the mixture taken by the yoummg laly, wiiieh caused Per death, was the prescription I ordered. Mr. Bell agreed with Dr. Scoffcrn as to the analysis, end said it was clear the medicine was prepared correctly, from the prescription, by Mr. Cortield. There are eiithtewn varieties of hitter almonds water, prepared from continental pharma. oopeeias, all varying in strength from 10 to 50 per cent. All 'Uttar almonds waters are poisons, mere or lest —Catherine Crawley, set vaut to Miss Colivar, proved taking the prescrip tion to be made up by Mr. Cm'rfield. Dr. Vinables, recalled : I have tested bitter almonds water purchased of Mr. French, of Holborn, nod find that one fluid ounce contains 1-15th of a grain of prussic arid.— Dr. Cronin: Had the bitter almonds water bought imp you at Mr. French's been used in Miss Collyer's medicine, would it have killed her? _ . Dr. Venable': No, it would not. It would net have been dangerous in aoy way. (Dr. Cronin here handed to the witness 't Gray's Supplement to the Pharmacopteia," from which he read an extract, to show the composition of bitter almond water.) "Gray's Supplement to the l'harmacoptria" is a book of authority. Tne snick read is the same as Dr. Croniu'a prescription. I regard it as a poison, but much depends on strength. It is not the practice of physicians to prescribe po *mous waters not in the " Phormacopreia." Mr. Wakley said ho would like to hear any chemist Dr. Cronin thought proper to call. Mr. John Eldridge Spratt, of the firm of Turner and Sprott, of Titchbortic-street, Haymarket, was, at the desire of Dr. Cronin, sworn. He said—We keep at our establish ment five preparations of bitter almonds water, viz., French, Italian, German, Gay's strong, and Gray's weak. I car not say what w•reld be a maximum dose of Gray's weak bitter almonds water, but according to &rub:mine it would be two drachms. Mr. Manion, chemis', mid he bad seen the forms of bitter almond water as pre scribed in Gray 's Supplement. The weak bitter almond water would be poisonous, he thought, at the dose of an ounce. The whole of the waters prescribed by the foreign formula are poisonous. I have never dispensed bitter almond water in accordance with they's Supplement. The Coroner at this stage of the proceedings mid there was no further evidence, and asked Dr. Cronin if he was desirous of making any statement to the jury. Dr. Cronin said he had the highest authorities for using the bitter almond water in his prescription, and in support of his statement read extracts from Dr. Chriatison's work on Poisons, Dr. Thompson's New E liuburgh Pharmacotmeis, Professor Brand, and the London Phurmaceutical Journal. He declared, if physicians were to be tanned by the British Pharmacopoeia and nothing elm, no improvement could ever take place in the science of medicine. The Coroner said the calamity which the jury had met to deliberate upon, was one of a most deplorable character, and calculated to excite the meat painful feelings in the public mind. It was a matter of v. st importance to the me dical profession, as well us one which concerned the public at large. Dr. Cronin, in the present case, appeared to think that he had done no wrong. In that view he (the co roner) consider, d Dr. Cronin was not borne out by the weight of the testimony laid before the jury. It would be for the jury to consider, however, whether Dr. Cronin had deviated from the ordinary course laid down by authority or nut. It they considered be had not, then it would be their duty to esculpate him from all blame; but if they considered he had not exorcised proper care, and that he had deviated from the ordinary custom in writing this prescription, then it would be the duty of the Mrs , to hold him culpable. They bad heard in evidence that Dr. Cronin was a graduate of the tioiversity of Giessen. Now, that was of no value whatever in this country,. for German diplomas were to be bought and sold almost as cheap as any article to be purchased an hucksters' shops. Although Dr. I Cronin way not 9ualified to act as a phjsician, still he (the ' coroner) held him a qualified practitioner, under the 55th of George 111., as a licentiate of the Apo*hecaries' Company. With regard to Mr. Corfield, the jury had heard that he had made up the prescription prec:sAy in accordance with Dr. Croniu's prescription, with the exception of the compound Mryclinia powder, and he (the Coroner) held that no blame whatever attached to Mr. Corfielet ; and he also exonerated hlr. Bell from any blame with respect to supplying the bitter almond seater. It bad been proved by Mr. 31oriion, who had been 30 years in his profession as a chemist, that lie never sold the bitter almond water for in ternal purp.,,s, and Mr. Bell had given similar testimony. Dr. Venabies, it was true, ha) given testimony of a different character, but the great weight of the testimony showed that it was not authorised by the Pharinacopiria. After referring to the evidence of Dr. Scofiern and the either witnesses, the coroner told the jury that if they believed the deceased had died from the fleets of the medicine, and that it had been prescribed without due and proper care, it would be their duty to find a verdict of manslauahter against Mr. Cronin. The jury retired about one o'clock to consider their ver dict, and during their deliberation Dr. Cronin was about to leave the house, when Le was stopped by police-serjeant 16 8, who said he had authority to detain him, and if Le attempted to go there were police stationed in the neigh bourhood to prevent him. Shortly after two o'clock the jury returned into court, and the foreman announced that they fount a verdict of " Manslaughter against Dennis Cronin." The coroner then made out his warrant of committal, ar.d Dr. Cronin was conveyed to Newgate in a cab. lINALTII OF TOWNS AssoclATioN. The annual general meeting of the Health of Towns' Association was held yesterday at the rooms of the Statistical Society, St. Jamee's.square, Lord Ashley presiding. The report, after giving the origin and history of the association, and honour ably mentioning its leading, benevolent supporters, concluded by stating, "that the sanitary question was row fairly before the public, and that the provincial towns were beginning to attend to it." This report was unanimsusly adopted by the meeting. The statement of accounts was next read, and showed that there had been received up to the present time, for subscriptions and donations, and by the sale of publica tines, 6017. 12s. ; the disbursements fur printing and other expenses, set forth, amounted to 645/. 13s. 11d., leaving a cash balance of 611. INs. 10d. There were, however, lia bilities to the amount of 119/. 13s. 4d., and the outstanding subscriptions, when paid, could leave the society shout 100/. to debt. The lteverend Mr. Murch, of Bath (who attended as a deputation from that city), said he received the most dreadful aocoulds of the state of fever exi-ting in several small towns in the eastern part of the kingdom, owing to causes which a sound and compre hensive sanitary measure would get rid of. Mr. Mac kinnon, M.P., said that he was satisfied from the answer given by Sir George Grey to the di putation, so well as from Lord Morpeth's reply to him (Mr. Mackinnon) in the House of Commons, that the government contemplated the intro duction of one comprehmsive sanitory measure. How com prehensive it would be, it was not for him to say, but he be lieved it would include the suhjects o: drainage, ventilation, the non-interment of the dead in towns, and consumption of smoke. Thanks were passed by acclamation to the noble chairman, who hriefly acknowledged the compfiment, and the meeting separated. • KING'S - COLLPGE 110SPITAL.—Yesterday, at three o'clock, the annual court of the governors end supporters of the King's College liospi:al, which was fully attended, was held in the board-room of the hospital, Portugal-street, to receive the report of the past year. The Rev. Mr. Bilis, rector of St. Clement Danes, in the chair. Mr. Lyon, the secretary, read the report, which showed that the receipts amounted to 3,7011. 16s. Id., which the expenditure ex ceeded by 6451. 144. lld. The sum of 4211. 10s. had been added to the stock fuud, from legacies. This year, the in patients numbered 1,276 ; the total, last )ear, being 1,266. There were 16.547 out-patients, exceeding those of last year by Gl4; while 415 married women were attended in their confinement, at their own homes. ROYAL ORTHOP.f.DIC HOSPITAL. Yesterday a meeting of the subscribers to this charity was held at No. 6, Bloomsbury-square, Quarles Harris, H.q., in the chair. The chairman taring communicated to the meeting the gratify ing intelligence that her Majesty had graciously consented to favour the charity with her patronage, the report was read, by which it appeared that the in-patients admitted in the year 1846 were 117 ; out-patients, 1.298 ; total, 1,345 ; being an increase of 376 over the year 1845. The total of in-patients admitted since the opening of the charity, in 1840, were 492; ont-patients, 4,805; tutal, 5,297. The number of in-patients in the wards on the 21st of February, 11146, was 30; the number of ditto admitted up to the 21st of Feb., 1847 was 62; the number of ditto discharged cured, 51; discharged relieved, 11 ; number at the proem moment in the hospital, 30 ; number of persons on the rotation list waiting for admission ' 146. The receipts from all sources fur the year have been 2,5351. ; the expenditure, 2,32.31. ; balance in hand, 2121. The average cost for each patient was a guinea. The report stated that the amount of annual subscriptions had increased, and that donations of 1001. from the corporation of London, and of 25 guineas from the Mercers' Company, had been recaived. The committee recommended the raising of a fund for the building of a larger hospital. The election of the committee, auditors, and vice-presidents, was then proceeded with, after which the meeting separated. • - - - - ILLICIT DISTILLERT.—YePterday morning Mears. W. Ba7ford and J. Lewins, the active officers of excise, pro ceeded to No. 5, Triangle-place, licnnirgton-crom, where they knocked for a considerable time, but, no answer being returned, they got a ladder, and gained an entrance by a first-floor hack window. Ina lower room they found a large copper still, capable of containing near 200 gallons, and • quantity of fermented /Fla of malt and molasses. No person was found on the premises, but the still bad recently been at work. _ _ _ . _ FIRE ON TILE RIVEIL—On Tuesday night a fire broke out on board a barge moored if the coal whippend register-office, Lower Shadwell, in which the shovels, hss kets, and other working gear used in tic delivery of tho coal-ships arc deposited. A fire had been kindled in an bon grate on beard, and some while playing, capsized the grate. There was a gond deal of combustible matter in the vessel, and the flames soon burst forth. An alarm was caisml, and a gnat number of cent-whirr: es and others went en board and extinguished the ft Imes, rot before con siderable damage was done. Fitts.—Last night, about eleven o'clock, the pre mises of Mr. Morgan, t, Shadwell, were dis covered to he en tire. An instant alarm wan :allied, and the inmates were aroused. By that period tie lower porion of the premises was in flames. In the space of n few minutes, Mr. Morgan, two females, and five eitilitren appeared at the first floor front, and were taken from the window. The engines of the parish, London Brilsde, and West of Eng land Company, quickly attended, and the flames were extinguished bcfoie -w Ore o'clock. The damage done how. ever is considerable. The proprietor of the promises WU insured in the amnia and Union Fire Offices. ..... INQUEST, YEsTERDAY.—BEN OVER.—By adjourn moat, before Mr. Payne, at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, on view of the body of Charles Waby Newby, aged seven years. On Monday evening last, about six o'clock, the deceased, who was in New Grouctster-street, went off the pavement into the road to pick up something. At the time a cart, in which there was one horse, procei MA out of Old Gloucester street at a gallop, the driver whippirg it at the same time with some violence. The decieassl, who had no time to gat nut of the way, was struck on the tcwple by the lore off-foot, which knocked him down, when he was trod upon. A lady named Goodwin, who saw the aecident, took deceased to a surgeon. lie sous sohst quently convey, dto the above insti tution, where he tiled on the foaowin; day. On a post mot . . tem examination the base of the skied was found fractured, and several of the vessels of the brain were lacerated, which caused his deuth. Several w itucuec. were examined, who said that the horse, after the occident, went on so fiat that no one could overtake it. The c ironer having summed up, the jury returned a veld:et of "Manslaughter against Edward Herring," who won committed to the Central Cri minal Court. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Fsa. 23. The Mendicity Institution has contributed much to allay the destitution of the metropolis. There is no test : whoever applies for food obtains it without investigation. The only restriction is, that the ap plicant must wink, in collie shape or other, suited to his or her physical ability or condition. Before the poor-law this was the great institution for relief ; and since then, with diminished means, it continues to do much good. At the annual meeting, yesterday, the report stated that the committee had anticipated the high prices, and laid in a supply of rice and Indian meal at a rate which enabled them to feed the poor at fifty, per cent. less than the present prices. The statistics of the establishment show a greatly in creasing run on its charity. At the meeting of the Royal Dublin Society on Monday last, to present the sucexatful pupils with the prizes awarded, the Lord-lieutenant and his family attended. The secretary, Mr. Foote, delivered a long address, in which he felicitously observed on the patronage rendered to the society by a former Lord Besborough. In returning thanks for his health the Lord-lieutenant assured the society that As the representative of his mist gracious sovereign, he could not do anything more con genial to the feelings of her Majesty than by directing every means—showing that attention and giving that support to a society constituted as that was—which it was iu his power to afford. He had an opportunity, by their penniston upon a late ecasion ' of going over the different departments of the society, and he was exceedingly pleased at the greet progress made by the pupils in the venous branches of nit, the great facilities of improving themselves which were extended to them, and it I was hardly possible too much to appreciate the great &dean ' tage which the youth of that conf.try must derive from an ' establishmt nt like the present ; and from what he had seen that evening, the talent displayed, and the great utility of the institution, he felt no doubt that the pupils would avail ' themselves of the opportunity an kindly offered to them to enlarge their sphere of useful knowledge, and enquire infor mation in the several branches of serene. • STATE OF THE COUNTRY. The rot* Franticier, which has arrived this afternoon, is crowded with communicatione descriptive of the horrifying condition of that county. In K insole, the workhouse built to accommodate 500 contains 1,050, and an additional build ing has just been taken by the guardians. Of the inhabi tants of the town and di , f riets of Kinsale, 7,500 in number, 3,000 are dependent upon the fisheries, and 1.200 upon agri cultural labour. The fishermen have been prevented from pursuing their avocations for the but two months by the state of the weather, and these pow mon have pawned their fishing-gear. A soup kitchen has been established in Kin sale, whence soup and Lend are el Lily distributed to 1,720 of the poorest inhabitants; and the e [leers of the 35th Regt., stationed in the town, have opened. ma. alaiaiaha_ at their own expense, an additional soup kitchen at the little fishing village of Cove, near the town. At Coac'alorl the most appalling wont appears to prevail. It is estimated that 100 families in and around that place are sick of fever, and as many more of dysentery. At Ahabo loneue the condition of the people Is, if possible, still worse. Here the parish clergyman, after acknowled3- ing an amount of 421. to his soup kitchen, informs us that of 6,000 souls, 4,000 are dependent for subsistence upon one gratuitous meal in the day. The deaths have increased 20-fold, and there are iu this porch at least 900 sick. There are communications of the same nature, not mitigated in the least degree, from Castletownsend, Watergraasshill, Ken mare, in Kerry, Maeroom, and Crookhaven,in the vicinage of the too famous &bulk At Croukhaven, a clergyman writes that corpses lie unburied fur seven? days together, and that they are frequently torn by pigs, and dogs and rats. I should add that in these acemr.ts, especially in that which refers to Coachford, much censure is cast up-n the landlords for refusing or declining to subscribe to the relief fund— especially those of them who are absentees. The Cork workhouse contains 5,702 pauper', of shorn there are in hospital 627, and externs under treatment 1,329; there were in the past week 146 deaths. SCOTLAND. EDINBURGH, Fen. 23. Pursuant to 8 and 9 Viet., cap. 38, the Scotch banks are at present publishing lists of their shareholders, and the publication reveals very strikingly the sta bility of these institutions. In some instances the proprietary are so numerous that their names occupy five or six columns of a newspaper, and gathered as these names are from all quarters of the country, and embracing every kind of rank and profession, nothing short of national insolvency could bring them into disrepute. Five of the Scotch trknks are chartered — a privilege which is generally , understood (it has never yet been tried) to limit the responsibility of partners to the amount of their shares, but even in them the wide distribution of risk is such as to insure the utmost confidence. Thus, of these five, the lowest number of partners is 222, and the highest 1,512. If any doubt were entertained as to the stability of the establishment having the least number of partners, the circumstance of its dividend being 8 per cent. at once settles that point. The Short Time Bill will not affect Glasgow just now. Already a number of the power-loom factory employers have put their workers on short time—some of them, indeed, working only during day light. The manufacturing business is represented as being in a more distressed state in Glasgow than it has been for some years previous. - PAUPERS' ALLOWANCES IN SCOTLAND. — An unpleasant statute for Poor-law Boards has been invoked from the dust of the sixteenth century. The act. 1579, chap. 74, directs that " those who neece.sairlie mon be sustained be almes be maid content, of their owa consents, to accept daylie, to live unheggand, and to provide qohair then remaining shall be, be themselves or in house with others quhair the saidis pare people may be best judged and abydr." The parochial board of Gorbals, Glasgow, when adjudicating on the cue of a widow and three infant children, placed them on the roll of pauper• at 21,1. each per week; hut provided no lodging or clothing for them, and refuel to do so when ap plied to. A complaint as to the inadequacy of the allowance was made to the board of supervision ; but as that board, in its usual way, declined to interfere, the pursuer in the action intimated that he had procured a lodging for them, and would hold the board liable in th, exp. nce, and inbeing summoned before the sheriff the herd gave in. It turns out that the excerpts from the old boots acts, which we lately quoted from the Glasgow Citizen, arc really genuine —it would, therefore, be well to act on them also, if ►till in force. PROVINCIAL. REPRESENTATION or LEIeaSTZP.—A serioua difference exists between a section of the Liberals and the rasjority of the party in Leicester. Dissatisfaction has existed for some time on the part of the electors with their representatives— , Sir John Easthope and Mr. Wynn Ellis ; and the electors in the Reform interest met, and appointed delegates with full power to act according to circumstances. On the 11th. instant a meeting of the committee of &legates was held at the Exchange, when they resolved unanimously : First—That in the opinion of this committee a Wing and decided feeling exists amongst the electors, generally in favour of • change of representatives, and a change In the sydrua of conducting elections. That thiscommittee Is deeply f,. bore with the same feeling, and be lieves ouch a clone to be neccwary for the ennlial union of the great majority of the sectors and the security . of the Liberal intermit.— Seoond—That a copy of the abuse resolution be Wrwarded by the chairman to the present members for the borough, Sir John East hope, Bart„ M.P., and Wynn Ellis, Eaq., Acting upon the spirit as well SA the letter of their in structions, the delegates invited Sir Jushut Walmeley who contested the borough of Liverpool in 1811, to offer himself as one of the candidates at the next election. The invite . tioa has been accepted, aid a heated controversy is now carried on in the Leicester Chronicle, by the section alluded to, which consists of four or five influential parties who are i known as "moderate reformers." Still the division, such i as it is, ntq We disastrous effects upon the interests of the I
