r IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. J .110: 1 S 1 ; QF LIMDS.—THITEUIDAY, MARCH S. Ix the louse of Loans yesterday Lord Cai!ne aook his seat on the woolsack as Lord Chel i eellor for the first time. The Earl of Mantr.swet Mated thit thiministry was now complete. Only two changes had taken place in the cat; dl it, but it had beet found impos sible to meet, parliament at an oraier period. The rolicYof."die cabinet would be 'me same as that of -will +derby. The present session would no doubt at important one, as regarded the measures ;which would have to be brought forward. Tho work of reform would have to be perfected by the introduction of measures for Scotland and Ireland, and a bill would be introduced for the extension of popular education. An earnest attempt would also be made to remedy the evils which existed in Ireland. Earl Rinissis could not avoid repeating the pro test which he made on a former occasion, that no confidence could be placed in a government which openly professed one thing and meant another. For three years they bad declared that no reduc tion ought to be made in the franchise, and yet all the time it had been their intention to make a large reduction. This was a course of deception which, although it bad been called by another name, could not be too highly reprobated. Tho Duke of MARLBOROUGH was at a loss to un derstand what the noble lord alluded to. As soon as the government of Lord Derby came into office the subject of reform occupied their attention, and at the very next meeting of parliament a bill was brought forward. Earl RUSSELL said he had referred to the Edin burgh speech of Mr. Disraeli, in which he stated he had for seven years been deceiving or educating his party to receive a large measure of reform. The Public Departments (Extra Receipts) Bill was read a second time. The house adjourned at thirty-five minutes past 5 o'clock. GREAT IVZSTERN RAILWAY. After our report lett yesterday, The CHAIRMAN concluded by t ae owg the adoption of the loport, and requesting V!. ?Smith, the chairman of the Sharsholdete Commit! eof Consultation, to second the motion, inordee tk.t tlmt gentleman might have an once , Utility of maktg an explanation. Mr. Urns, who was received with cheers, seconded ea motions Ho said he appeared before them under feelings of some disappointment, bemuse in November last he thought they would now receive a cosh dividend. How ever, the fact that the directors were not in a position to do so did not warrant an impeachment of their sagacity, inasmuch as they had been goserned by circumstances which they could not have possibly foreseen. Tho seems of the timo induced people to come forward with com peting lines, and as the directors had been thus forced to make lines in self-defence, the capital was spread over a Urger area, and there was a proportionate absorption of dividend. He believed that the accounts of the company were thoroughly honest, and that there was no cooking. He did not think Rau possible to close the capital account, which some persons seemed to think was the great ears for railway mismanagement. He was in favour of keeping the line in good and efficient repair, but there were several expenses put down to revenue which he thought should be pat down to capital. As a principle of justice he did not think the interest of present shareholders should be sacrificed to the welfare of future shareholders—Hutt was to say, the revenue of a present bolder should not be taken to increase tho permanent value of the line for a future bolder. They had a first class chairman and a good board, and what they now wanted was to increase the tra ffi c, to diminish expenditure, to keep up • friendly feeling towards the companies that surrounded them. Tbey wanted rest, they wanted to get rid of law suits, they wanted to see their officers engaged In deve loping the resources, and not in contesting legal quibbles; and by confining themselves to these objects he hoped in three or four years to see theGrent Western Railway in the position to which its magnitude and importance entitled it. (Cheers.) Mr. PARKES acknowledged that be had been partly in strumental in throwing out the dividend bill. That mea sure, he maintained, would enable the directors for all time to come to 'pay dividends in stock instead of cash. If the system were adopted in their ear It would become general, and then what security would preference holders have! Ile would move, as an amendment, that the report be adopted, except the following words in the paragraph refining to the bill authorising the issue of stock in lieu of dividend :—" It is' sot intended to make the accept ance of stock compulsory on any proprietor, and in order that the power to offer it may not be lightly sanctioned, and only under circumstances of great emergency, provi sion is made that a meeting must be specially convened for the purpose of authorising its issue, and the course pro psd to be adopted must be then sanctioned by a majority of three-fourths of the proprietors affected thereby, ' including the holders of preference stocks and shares, to whom the right of voting upon this matter is proposed to be given." Mr. C. Leon seconded the amendment. He dissented from the deprecatory terms in which Mr. Whetham (a late director) hail been referred to in the report, adding that 'he considered the election of a director a matter for the consideration of the general body of shareholders, and not one of a personal nature between the candi dates. He suggested that in future a verbatim report of the proceedings should be sent to each shareholder. Mr. H. It. PRICE earnestly urged upon all concerned the desirability of making every possible concession, with the view of surmounting the difficulties of the company. Mr. HCNIER believed they would increase public OMB. gdenee if they paid the debenture interest quarterly, bilked of half-yearly. Money for the payment of interest was paid weekly into the Bank of England ; and, as it brought no return, he did not see how the change could have an adverse effect. Mr. IViusritan considered that, pending the decision on the bill, it would be advisable to issue deferred dividend warrants, which were marketable in cases of necessity. The CHAIRMAN, in replying to the questions and com ments of shareholders, observed, with regard to what had fallen from Mr. Parkes, that the directors had only one object in taking the step in question. With a debenture debt of 13,000,000!. hanging over them—with their divi dend and property, in point of fact, at the mercy of money lenders—they could not but feel that it would be desirable to do what was proposed, not that they wished to exer cise the power, but, if the necessity should arise, that they would have power to do that which the board bad done wisely and well, though illegally, in the past. He thought it was essential that they should have the bill passed in this parliament, and to meet the views of Mr. Parkes he would suggest that they take the power for the remainder of this year instead of is perpetuity. (Loud cheers.) If they got the debenture money they would be able to give them a cash dividend at the end of the month, and if at that time they had not the money er the bill it would be the duty of the directors to give dividend warrants in recognition of the shareholders' claims for a dividend. If they could reduce the floating debt to about 6,000,000/. or 7,000,000!. their position would be thoroughly satisfactory. What they bad been struggling against was their being put into the hands of the receiver in the Court of Chancery, who adopted a summary way of doing business, and took the share holders' dividends to pay debentures. He hoped the shareholders would individually exert themselves amongst their friends, and rain the required amount. He bad already taken 7,0001. of this debenture stock, and believing it was a good stock they should have no hesitation in recommending it. The hoard would send out a circular allotting it, and he hoped to have a satisfactory answer. With regard to the suggestion of Lord Redesdale that they should issue the debentures at discount in order to give the shareholders their money, and other remarks made by him in reference to the affairs of the Great Western, be (the chairman) thought it was unfair and unrighteous on the part of the noble lord to write to the public prints on questions upon which be would legislate in a few weeks. (Hear, hear.) They had quite enough to do without paying attention to amateur railway people. (Hear, hear.) With regard to other matters, the chairman mentioned that steps were being taken to know the inane of their surplus lands. The directors bad no intention of sending proxies, a step which was opposed to their wish, until they had learned that proxies were being sent out by Mr. Whetham ; and then, of course, they did not think it right to remain inactive. They always kept a good balance at the Bank of England, she governors of which were BO satisfied with the amount that they did not charge soy commission. (Hear, bean) In point of fact, they kept a balance at tho Bank of Eng land to meet their debenture interest. Two days pre viously they got notice from the Metropolitan, that the land at the old Farringdon-street station, which, under the ent with that company, it was proposed they shoul a i r rv i s, was now vacant. They did not ith the Metropolitan in the interpretation of all the= et the agreement, and now that they bad received notice it would be their duty to see their exact position. They hied increased their coal rates to London, and they intended to increase them elsewhere. The passenger fares were already at the maximum figure. The amendment was then withdrawn, and the motion was put and agreed to, on the understanding that the powers contained in the dividend bill would, if agreed to by parliament, be limited to the present year. The re-election of directors was then proceedoCwith. Mr. Whetliam was proposed as a director, and a poll demanded on his behalf, but be ultimately withdrew, in deference to • wish strewed by the meeting and the chairman. A resolution sanctioning the following was then put : "A hilt for conferring further powers on the Great West ern Railway Company for the construction of works, and in relation to their own undertaking and the undertakings of other companies, and for other purposes." The bill re lates to matters referred to in the chairman's speech. A vote of thanks was then passed to the chairman and directors, after which the meeting was adjourned to Thurs day, the 2nd of April. HOUSE OF COMMONS. --THURSDAY, MARCH 5. Ix the House of CommoNs the Marquis of LORN took his seat for Argyleshire. Mr. W. E. BAXTER gave notice that, on tee order of the day for going into committee on the Scotch Reform Bill, he should move that it be an inatruction to the committee, that the additional members for Scotland be obtained by the disfran chisement of small boroughs in England. Mr. DISRAELI rose to make a few remarks, in consequence of the changes in his relations to the house since he last addressed it. The retirement of Lord Derby from the chief conduct of affairs was unexpected. He hoped and believed that Lord Derby would be restored to health, and if he were ho would always exercise an influence over public affairs, in consequence of his great position and talent. Her Majesty was pleased on the retirement of Lord Derby to entrust him with the formation of a new ministry, and though he felt the great burden and responsibility, ho could not with self-respect refuse such an offer. He trusted to the sympathy of • generous party, and to receiving a fair and impar tial treatment from a parliament in which ho had passed half his existence, and he presumed to undertake the office which he now held. The policy of the new government would be the same as that which Lord Derby announced when he took office somewhat less than two years ago. With regard to foreign policy, they should follow the course which had been pursued by Lord Stanley. That policy was a policy of peace—not peace at any price, not peace for the mere interest of England, but from a conviction that the policy of peace was for the general interest of the world. With regard to domestic affairs, the policy of the present ad ministration would be a truly liberal policy, a policy which would not shrink from any changes which were required by the wants of the ago we live in. With regard to Ireland, he trusted that the agitation would soon cease, and the house could then proceed with the introduction and carry ing of measures, as they had already done during this generation, for ameliorating the condition of that country. In the forthcoming debate on Mr. Maguire's motion the Secretary for Ireland would take an opportunity of stating the general policy of tho government with regard to Irish questions. Mr. Reeve= asked what Lord Derby's policy was—whether it was that which he announced two years ago, or that which he followed last year. Mr. Disraeli had fairly earned his position, but at the same time it must be remarked that the go vernment was too weak in parliamentary power, and that it had not a majority to carry on the business of the country in the manner in which it ought to be carried on. It was weak in Lord Derby's time ; it was made still weaker by his retirement, for he was the keystone of the arch. Ho did not blame the right hon. gentleman, but members on his own side of the house. The libe ral party did not deserve to be called a party. They had leaden that would not lead, and followers that would not follow. Sir G. BOWYER deprecated the observations of the last speaker, and assured the government that if they would bring forward good measures they would not want a majority. • The house then passed on to the orders of the day, the first being the Capital Punishment within Prisons Bill, the second reading of which was moved by Mr. G. HARDY. The bill laid down regu lations under which executions would be carried out, and provided that in every case an inquest should be held, in order that it might be ascertained that the execution had taken place. Mr. Serjoant GlasztEE moved the rejection of the bill. Seven of the commissioners, ho said, were in favour of executions taking place in pri vate, and five against it. Ho created much amuse ment by declaring that this was • poor mans question, and that the poor man had a right to be hung in public. Sir G. BOWYER seconded the amendment. He believed that public executions had a salutary effect. The discussion was continued by Mr. Hugossen, Mr. Hibbert, and Mr. M'Laren, who spoke in favour of the measure, the latter expressing a hope that • similar measure would be introduced for Scotland. The LORD ADVOCATE said • provision would be intro duced for that pui•pose. Mr. GILP/N and Mr. N EWDEOATZ opposed the bill. The second reading was carried by 181 to 2b. Mr. DISRAELI moved the second reading of the Election Petitions and Corrupt Practices at Eleo tions Bill. He stated that when he introduced the bill objections were made to the tribunal it was proposed to constitute. Those objections, he thought, were well founded, and he proposed, therefore to substitute another tribunal. He pro posed that two judges of one of the superior courts of law at Westminster should be appointed, with the same salary that they had when judges, and that they should investigate petitions on con troverted elections on the spot ; that on their appointment to this office they should cease to be ordinary judges, but that they should became members of the Privy Council, and form part of the Judicial Committee, and also be required to sit in the Exchequer Chamber,i or such other appeal court of an analogous character as might hereafter be appointed. He thought that by this means they would obviate the objections of the Lord Chief Justiceto these dutiesbeingthrown uponthe judges. Mr. GLADSTONE assented to the second reading. He thought this tribunal an improvement on that first proposed. At the same time it was • tribunal of a novel character, involving many points for consideration, and he did not preclude !lima& from objecting to it hereafter. The bill was then read a second time. -The Sea Fisheries Bill, the London Coal and Wine D uti ; .. se Continuance Bill, and the Judgments Br untion 1411, were severally read a second time. The ale of liquors on Sunday (Ireland) Bill e .„ • „,z1 a second time, and referred to a select committes:. , - The Railway and Gas Shares Bill was withdrawn. . Bills were i n trodnoed by the Earl of Mayo to facilitate th e a lt era ti on cf days upon are now held in Ireland ; an 3 by Mr. Morrison which fairs to amend the Metropolis Gal Act, 1860, and of to make further provision for regulating the PuPPIY PA to the metropolis, and for other purposer. The bows adjourned at fire minutes to 8 o'clock.

LIVERPOOL SPRING MEETING. TIIUBSDAT. After the bustle and excitement of the Grand National ;lay the comparative quietude yesterday, was welcomed' by every one. Although the number of people present was considerably in excess of Tuesday the ring was not uncomfortably crowded, though of the outside public there wee a good muster. The weather was very stormy in the morning, but it tinned out Boa in the afternoon. The Scurry Handicap having failed to fill seven events were left for decision, the sport commencing at OD* o'clock with the Handicap Plate over the T.Y.C., width produced seven runners ; eight numlwrs were hoisted, but that of Collins was withdrawn, no reason being assigned for it. Problem was made a good favourite, but she was never in the race, seeming to tire in the hoary ironed. Spitfire and a two-year-old of Lord Westmorland's made a close race of it, the Volition colt winning cleverly by a neck. The " talent" had a facer is rho Selling Plate which followed, as Gonna, on whom they laid odds of 7to 4. sustained an easy defeat by Hagar. Mr. Saxon did not lose his filly, as there was no advance upon the entered selling prim. The Spring Cop produced a field of eleven runners from the twenty coloured. Of these, Knight of the Garter, though be had the crushing impost of fist 121 b, end the ground was heavy going, was backed for pounds shillings and pence, and the betting closed with even money on him. The result proved that good hones are capable of giving a lot of weight away to moderate one". The Clown led the field at a cracking pace fora mile, and when he retired the favourite was left in front, and, having all his opponents settled, won in n common canter by two lengths. Sister to Vedette ran third, but Kenyon had to whip her several times to make her keep her place in the front rank. Nu cut up badly, pulling up at the turn into the straight. The Doctor mule the whole of the running for the Steeplechase Handicap, and was heavily backed in the ring. Sincerity fell at the water jump, and L. S. D. rolled over her, but Elphick, remount ing hies, Mr. Studd's bone finished second. Atalanta refused and was afterwards thrown out of the race. Cid valry—another favourite—landed the Welter Handicap, beating five others. Details of the running are appended . HANDICAP PLATE of 40 son., for 2-yrolds and up wards ;• T.Y.C. • half-a-mile.

'COURT OF APPIAL. MARCH O. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) JONES r. DADLEY. This was an appeal by the defendants from a decree of the Mesterei the Rolls. The suit was instituted to obtain • declaration that the residuary devise and be quest contained in the will of Miss Caroline Elizabeth Pargetcr, of Foxcote, near Dudley, Wm , lesterehire, made to Mr. John Badley and Mr. James Peyton Badby, were void, sad that they were trustees of tho real and personal estate comprised therein for to eo.beiressee and next of kin of the testatrix. The bill charged that the residuary real and personal estate left by the will were given to the defendants for charitable purposes, which they agreed to perform, or upon trusts, the nature of which was not declared by the testatrix. The defendants denied the existence of the secret triad, and claimed to be entitled to the pro perty absolutely. It seemed that the residuary es tate was estimated at 160,0001. The testatrix was en Unitarian of a very charitable disposition ; and had in her lifetime given large sums of money to charita ble institutions in the neighborrhood of Dudley, Blueing ham, and Stourblidge. She died in April, 186 4 . •11 was stated that she had always been a pawn of nervous temperament, and lived a good deal by herself, and although not disliking her relations. had no strong attach ment to them. Tho defendant, John Badley, was her medical attendant,whom she regarded man intimate friend, and was in the habit of consulting. It was held in the court below that the secret trust was void, and that the plaintiffs, the heirs-at-law end next of kin, were entitled to the real ind personal estate respectively. The defendants having appealed, Sir It. Palmer, Q.C., and Mr. Millar appeared for the appellants ; Mr. Baggallay, Q.C., Mr. Jvesel, Q.C., Mr. Peek, and Mr. Sargaut, for the other parties.

The start was delayed a few minutes owing to three breaks away, in the first of which Child of the Islands ran nearly a quarter of a mile. The flag at length fell to an excellent start, The Clown imme diately taking a clear lead, Sister to Vedette, Honesty, ▪ the favourite following in close company .

BETTING IN LONDON.-THURSDAY. Although the attendance at the dubs to-day was not over numerous, several transaction, were conclu&d on the spring handicaps. For the (.Sty and Suburban, Hemet was in some form at 20 to 1, and the first offers did not exceed 100 to 6 ; the other hones mentioned were backed for small amounts only. For the Northam tonshire Stakes, Lord Hastings was supported at 16 to 1, Bwwing at 90 to 1 and Mandrake and Lap Year at 25 to 1 each. For the Cheater Cup, Bemiring was in great demand, all the 20's to 1 obtainable being taken and in the end asked far in vain. Weather Star was Mao beaked at the improved prim of 25 to 1. The remaining transactions were to small money, and need not be further particularised. For the Two Thousand, Baidcrnaisn still looked unhealthy, 7 to 2 being offered without a response. Pace would have been backed at 7 to 1, but offers stopped short at a point lima The only horse mentioned in connection with the Derby was Blue Down, against whom 2,000 to 100 was offered, with a counter proposition to accept 2,500 to 100.

Sold rally in meinta—lAdratketnieept) THE SUPPOSED MURDER AT SOUTH DZIPPIE WISH having been stated in the London jour nals that one of the letters found upon they man alleged to have been brutally murdered In the neighbour hood of South Drift%ld was addressed from Scarborough to "Mn,s DTiliooll, Tottenham, Middlesex," our reporter yesterday made inquiries at &Winton of one of the err geants of police (E 17), who was present at the petty ses sion then sitting. From what was stated there appears to be no doubt that the information received in town as to the demoted is correct as to the description of a eon of a widow woman named Driscoll, who is well known at Tot tenham. This young man is a bricklayer's labourer, and left his home some time ago,sit is supposed in search of em ployment. It is stated that the person upon whose dead body eth inquest was opened and adjourned until the 10th inst., appeared to be a bo ut 28 years of see. The son of Mrs. Driscoll ia in his 24th you, and so satisfied ale his friends that he is the same person, that his sister, the constable informed the reporter, has gone over to South Drittleld to view the body for the purpose, if possible , of identifying thkremains. So closely does the description tally with the appeanoes of her brother, both as to height and age, that t is believed by the family and in the neighbourhood—wham he was well known—that he is the same parson. Sines the period of Drimeoll's leaving hie home, it appears that his mother has taken in a letter directed to him, which she opened. That letter is now, we understand , in the hands of the police authorities, and probably may be produced at the inquest. Although it may not be calculated to shed much light upon the on of the unfortunate man's death its contents ere, wean told, of considerable importance ; ladeed so imp ort ant th at, to order that the ends of justice may not be frustrated, it is considered, at present at least, prudent to withhold its contents from the public.

(Before the Astistant Judge.) Emma Mason, 28, a desperate.looking woman, was in dieted for stealing two sovereigns and other moneys, be longing to Samuel Coates, from his person. The prosecutor wee going home on the 23th ult. when the prisoner and another woman came up to him and cleverly contrived to rob him. The jury found her Guilty. Beyond these facts the case would not have been worth reporting bad it not been for the very violent behaviour of the prisoner. She raved and swore at the officers of the court, and made nee of some dreadful language. In the cells below, the male warders were obliged to be called in to the prisoner. Her boots were taken off, as it was thought she might make use of them by throwing them at the judge. Mrs. Howe, warder of the female House of Correction, for whom the prisoner entertained anything bat friendly feelings, proved the following long career against her: — She was tried at the Middlesex Sessions, Nov. 6, 18:-6, and sentenced to font mouths' imprisonment ; Thames Police court, July, 1859, .'.rank, &e., one mouth ; Thames Po lice-court, August 14, 1861, unlawfully disposing of men's clothes, two months' imprisonment ; same court, Feb. 9, 1863, illegal possession, six weeks ; Nov. 13, 1863, drunk and dis ord erly, one month ; Deo. 1863, assault, six weeks ; June, 1864, drunk and disorderly, one month ; Oct. 1864, drunk, &c ., one mon th ; May, 1865, assault, two months' imprisonment ; August, 1865, assault, two months ; April, 1866, drunk, &c., one month ; Sept. 24, 1866, assault, two months ; July, 1867, abusive language, one month ; August, 1867, drunk, &0., one month ; and in October, 1867, dim*, Sm., 54n. month; making in all about 20 times 'babas been convicted. During the time this witness was giving her evidence the prisoner made use of shocking end disgusting epithets. The court sentenced her to be kept in penal servitude for seven years. When removed from the sessions-boner to the prison an extra constable was placed inside the van to guard against the prisoner's violence. William Jona, 19, and William Smith, 18, two emart, stylishly dressed young men, were charged with stealing a rug value 18s., the property of Edward Bowry. The rug was in the prosecutor's carriage, and the pri. toner stole it therefrom. The prisoners were found Warder Reeves, of the House of Correction, proved seve ral convictions against Jones, one of which was for twelve months' imprisonment, in November, 1864 at the Central Criminal Court, for breaking into a church and stealing the sexton's boots ; eighteen months' imprisonment, in June, 1866, at Middlesex sessions, for stealing a third from a carriage. Jonas was sentenced to five years' penal servitude and Smith was remanded for inquiries to be made about him. William Illes, 22, shopmao, we. indicted for embezzling several sums of money, the property of his employers. Mr. Bootee Williams defended the prisoner. By the advice of his counsel the prisoner pleaded guilty, and, after a few observations, be was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment with hard labour. Jon* Gorki, 38, was convicted of felony. Warder Reeves, of the House of Correction, and Floyd, proved some convictions against him. Reeves said the prisoner was one of the gang who attacked the prison van some short time ago, and pelted him (the officer) with atones. Prisoner was the terror of the neighbourhood, and the dread of the police. Sentence—penal servitude for ten yeah. The prisoner woe removed, smiling.

Eliza Toilet, whose appearance was veryidean and neat, said she was the mother of the deceased boys, and lived at 15, Clayton-street, Oalodonian-read. The eldest had never been well from birth, and for the last three months had been subject to fits, and gradually gut worse. On Saturday last he complained of being unwell, when she laid him on the bad. Shortly after he had a fit, and in a few hours after be died. The second child complained of a pain in his bead, and was %on the Thursday, when she gave him some castor-oil. On Saturday he gut worse, end ooinplained of heat of the body, and she laid aim down on the bed by the side of his brother, who was then in another fit, and insensible. All her children in early age had had tits, but some had grown cut of them. They were very poor, as her husband a year no had su ff ered from a severe illness. Since Christmas Le had been out of work, and at the present time he was a dying Luau. Two of their eldest boys were cut sit a ork, and brought in a little money, leaving as after the rent for their home wee pita She and her husband also got little odd jobs, but the whole receipts afforded them little beyond etas ration. The Coroner—lint finding you were in such • condition, why did you not apply to the parish for relief Witness—That was done. We applied to St. Palms' workhouse, and met with what we did cot like. In reply to the coroner, she said that on the Friday the diddles had • little rice for dinner, and afterwards some bread and oatmeal, and bread in the evening before going to bed, at half-past seven. Dr. J. T. Slater, parish surgeon, was next examined, and deposed to being called to the deceased at four o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday last. Ile found the elder boy insensible and convulsed. The younger boy was simply inscasible, and both died shortly after his attend. fILICe. Dr. Edward Ballard, medical officer of health to the parish of Islington, said he had made a post-sorters exami nation of the bodies of the two boys. The eldest was very puny fur • child of seven years of age, rind was ricketty, also very much emaciated. The intestines were corn. pletely empty from one end to the other. 'rho canoe of death in this ease was convulsions from starvation. The child Lad been starved fur some time past. The second child was also ricketty and very small for its age, and emaciated. The small intestines were entirely empty, but iu the larger there was something of a fluid or semi-fluid character. In this case also it was a death from starva tion. The Coroner advised that the father of the deceased children should be called. John Tullet said he was the father of the deceased. He was • whitcamith. When in health he earned from 30a. to 3fis. • week, but he had been out of work for twelve months. Sometimes he got • job, and ought earn 10s. week. He did not see the children until after they were found dead. By the Curoner—Have you applied to the pariah, under your distressed circumstances, for relief' Witness—l did once, but they would not relieve me unless the whole of my family, including myself, went into the workhouse. I felt that I could not break up my LOlllO, and tried to struggle on. The Coroner—There must be something wrong in work house relief, either ono way or She other. Mr. Stanwell, the caroner's officer, said the father of the deoeasee wan a most respectable man, arm .. a., very sober. Is answer to the foreman the father of the deceased mid that work in the stone yard had been offered to him by the path& at Pd. a day, but he was unable to do it. Mr. Stanwell Paid from bin knowledge of the father that if he were put to break stones he would not earn 6d. a day. The mother of the deceased said she bad applied for an order from the relieving o ffi cer of St. l'aucras Workhouse, and was told thst as her husband was a abitemoith he should not ask for relief, and that was after he had been out of work for six mont hs, and iIL Dr. Meter said the room in which the family lived was moat cleanly. It was poorly furnished, butliterally speak ing. you might have taken your food from the boards of the floor "and everything wear veryclean. The lamilidy of the house said it was almost heart breaking to know the condition of the family who resided in her house. Under starvation their honour was extreme, and they only owed one week's rent. She knew they wanted •• bread," and she had exerted herself to obtain relief from the religious visitors. The Coroner said it was a very melancholy cam, and raised the question as to whether the parish relief was a misnomer, or one of truth. The preterit came was one that might have been relieved by the pariah without it. penalty—stene-breakiog, and not allowed starvation of children in a Christian land. A combined verdict of " Death from convulsions by starvation," and `• Starvation" in the second case, was re. turned, The jury were so impressed with the case that a collec tion was made, and more than 11. was given Into the hands of the father of the deceased, who was stated by the coroner to be entirely unfitted foe further work for his MARKET& TALLOW.—TkitiRSDAT EVILNING.—The market' WAS flat to-day.

Since the sale of wool by Messrs. Towneud on Monday, and the advance in cotton at Liverpool, there has been a slight improvement in the wool market. There is a greater degree of confidence, and the consequence is e firmer tone. Wherever spinners are obliged to operate they are compelled to give full prices. All kinds of wool are stiffer. There is mein more inquiry for worsted yarns. The demand for low super 3fre is more active ; the stocks of these, however, have been cleared out long since, and spinners are now obliged, ander the higher rates re quired for wool, to seek higher prices than are afforest by shippers. Spinners are generally well employed, and very firm in seeking higher prices. There is a better tone in the piece trade, tad more business might he done if manufacturers were disposed to accept the low offers made by merchants. The demand for plain Orleans and fancy goods is much better than of late. Where stocks are offered at anything like old prises they are more easily cleared out. Altogether, there is a more healthy tone. COTTON.—Lrwont., MAkca s.—Stravg market, at full prices.
