WORKING Mazes elm . : AND INSITIVIZ UNION. —On Wednesday evening the first meeting of the secretaries. ot the Leedom clubs for the season was held at the offices of the Union, 150, Strand. The object of these meetings is to interchange ax one and opinion on all matters re lating to the actual working of the clubs and institutes, and during the early months of the rear they were found to be of considerable interest and profit. About 15 officials took tea together, after which A. A. Watts, Egg., a member of the council, took the chair, and after a few general remarks of the character of a welcome to the guests of the council, he introduced H. H. Sales, Esq., secretary of the Metropo litan Association for the Promotion of Adult Education, who explained the operation of that society, and the several ways in which he thought it might be able to aid in developing the educational work of the clubs and institute*. At the close of a very lucid address, Mr. Sales kindly answered a number of questions suggested by the practical experience of his auditors, as also by their anxiety to master any scheme which might be made subservient to the efficiency of their respective societies. On the motion of Mr. Turley (of the St. James's (Soho) Club). seconded by Mr. Bain , bridge, a member of the council of the unioc, the following resolution was unanimously adopted : " This meeting hav ing listened to Mr. Sales' very excellent and kindly com munications, pledges itself to bring the subject before the various clubs which the meeting represents, and does hereby also cordially thank Mr. Sales for his valuable informa tion." The secretary to the union has recently attended toortiop at Southampton, Winchester, Holbeck, Hunslet, Bradford, Scarborough, and Deepcar, She ffi eld, and in all parts of the country there appears to be springing up a lively interest in the movement. ___ ANOTHER CRINOLINE HORROR.—Yesterday morn ing, between seven and eight o'clock, a dreadful accident, resulting in death, occurred in a busy metropolitan thorough fare. It appears that a respectable married woman named Lane, keeper of a coffee-shop in Linder-street, Chelsea, whilst wasting upon her customers, caught fire from the shop stove. In bet terror, she instantly ran out into the street mid across the road into an 01101•11% shop. From thence, in a sheer of flame and shrieking piteously, she bounded back again into her own premises, where she set fire to the parlour. A number of persons endeavoured to throw her down on the floor, but for some time she eluded their praiseworthy efforts. At last a Mrs, Lewis enveloped Ler in a carpet, and so stifled the 111111104. It was now found that the steel bands of her crinoline were red hot, and burning into her very bones, while the dash dropped off her arms and lege. 14. Davis's assistant speedily arrived, hat death terminated the unfortunate woman's sufferings about 8 o'clock. Mrs. Lane was an ex. ample of neatness in her porton, but she owes her untimely and tocriaohne. A YOUNG LADY BURNT TO DEATH.—A few days ago tie recorded an accident by fire to Miss Julia Genevra St. Aubro, eldest daughter of the Rev. W. J. St. Aub)u, rector of Stoke Damerel, and niece of the lord of the manor of Devonport. We regret to learn that Miss St. Aubyn died on Tuesday night, as the result of the injuries the received. An inquest was held on Wednesday at the home of ber father, when it was elicited that the deceased had purposed going with the Rev. W. St. Autiyo to dine with the Bishop of Jamaica at the house of fir. Samuel Trisoott, on the evening of Saturday, the 17th mutant, and had nearly completed her toilet for the occasion, when in stooping she brought her arm too near a lighted candle, and one of the sleeves of her dress became ignited. The flames rapidly spread to other portions of her apparel, and she ran to her father, who was in an adjoining room. Re immediately extinguished the fire, but unfortneately such severe burns tied already been received that, in spite of all medical akil, she died from the effects of the ace-Sleet on Tuesday pietist. A verdict of "Accidental death" was re turned.— It micro Moreino News. SLFTGUEAR CASE or POLSONING.•—An inquest wu held on Friday afternoon, touching the death of Mr. Thomas Gibson, aged thirty-six, • surgeon, West Brom wich. Edward Woodward, a pupil of deceased, stated that for the last two cc three n.outha Mr. Gibson had suffered from congestion of the Leak,. Lot be was well on Thursday. He that day dined with his sister, and afterwards soot the witness for some brandy. A patient came in, and Woodward went to Mr. Bullus's, chemist, for some laudinum to adminis ter to the woman, which was served to him by Mr. Bullus's brother, in • tour-ounce bottle. labelled "Tincture (pit." There was no hamlet poison on it. A drop of it wi and the bottle was put in the consulting room. Deceas ed then sent wittiest for some more broody. He was far from sober, sod whet, the witness returned to about ten minutes his master, who was sitting whale be left him, asked whirl' it was in the landatium bottle, and Woodward replied, " Tincturamii." Deceased said he had drunk some in mis take for brandy, and told witness to measure bow much he had taken. He did so, and found that deceased had taken about ball an ounce. Deceased then gave simemdirrotions to throw water ou him, walk him about, or give him hot coffee it he became sleepy. Ho wee taken upstairs, sod his MstroctMna followed. Mr. Hullos was mat tor, and gave him romethirg, and advised that Mr. Duncalt should be sent for, but that gentleman was from home. Mr. Cotterell was mot for, but when be arrived Mr. Gibson was deed. About half an hour elatsvd after be took the laudanum Le fore bl emitted. Mi. Bullus's brother said nothing about the laudanum being poison. Mr. Hooper commented I strongly on the coeds it of the ehentist, in pilling the name without a label devoting that it was poison, end said that he should communicate with kit on the subject. The conduct of the led Woodward in leaving the bottle of laudanum in his master's retch was also very reprehensible, although no doubt thoughtlessly done. The jury returned a verdict to the effect that the " deceased died from taking laudanum in mistake for brandy, whilst in • state of intoxi cation." The dtreased leaves a widow and six children.— Wu/cf . eictoept..l Chrotitle. Tire STRISE.—A meeting of colliers on strike, to the number of 9,000 or 10,000, sou held on Wednesday. Addresses were delivered, in which the justice of the men's cause was set forth, and it was urged that it was their duty still to hold firm to the last, and that the mestere would be compelled eventually to give way. Communications were read from the colliers in other districts en couraging the men to be true to their colours, and promising that all the men at work in these district, would subscribe Is. per week I sr man for the support of those on strike. The opeecLea and announcements were received by the meeting with loud cheering, and the men afterwards separated to hold district meetings. The vast multitude behaved in the most orderly minuet.. On the previous day a large meeting of miners had been held near Wrexham, at whicu Mr. Wl:alley, who h.ppeoed to be riding past, was asked to preside. He strongly advised them sot to interfere; but resolutions in favour of the Staffordshire workmen were agreed to. A correspondent of the Birming ham post, however, says: Au attempt to induce the colliers of North Wales to strike work has Proved a corn. plate failure. No arrangement+ were made for interfering with the trade, and every colliery continues in fall work, large quantities of coal being daily forwarded into th e Wol verhampton and Birmingham districts."

Thomas Hoot', poliee-oocrtable 21 11, mid the prosecutor charged the prisoner with stealing the barrow, ha He said be was going towards Spitalaquare, but he was really going towards Seven-dials. The jury found him Guilty. Mr. Payne asked if the prisoner was known. offtEt Aaron, F dinsiosi, mid the primmer wag an old i r i : he had been several times convicted. He then put in a lot of convictions against the prisoner. Mr. Payne said by the new act on penal servitude he could not sentence the prisoner to a less term than seven ye" which was the sentence of the court upon him. Charles Williams, a black sailor, was indicted ler stealing a chest, a pair of trousers, a mattress, and other articles, the property of William Henry Long. The prisoner, who spoke very good English, plaided not . _ _ Wm. Henry Long said—l am a seaman lodging at 11, Ship-alley, St. George's. I lately belonged to the William Tell. Prisoner was also a seaman on board. On Saturday the 17th inst.

The ohms contained a pair of trouser,, a pair of slippers, some sheets, and several other articles, worth altogether about 31. I met the prisoner on the Z...hyl inst., and said to him, " Hellos, have you got my chest "." He said, " Yes." I then asked him to give it me. He said 1 he would take me to his lodgings acid give me my things. He led me about the streets for about an hour without taking me to his boarding house. I met a constable and gave him into custody, sad charged him with steeling the chest and its contents. I went to Bayley 's boarduig.house, where I saw the chest sad the ma' of the clothes. • M 1 H said the prisoner wee given into custody charged with stealing the chest and clothes. He told me he had got a key which fitted the prosecutor's box, which wits so. The prisoner, who rooks as well u acy Englishman, made a long rambling defence, and said he did not intend to steal the articles. Mr. Payne summed up the evidence, and the jury found him Gritty. Sentenee deferred. Bei:alma Driscoll and Mary M'Carehy were indicted for dealing a pewter measure, value 3e. Bd., the property of Edward Ashby. This was an important cue. in omisequence of the fre quenc► of pot stealing for the purpose of making counterfeit coin. The Prosecutor said—l keep the house the Ipswich Arms, in EudeUetreet, Longare. On the 15th September,about 7 o'clock, from certain information I received, I went to a house next to mine in Short's-gardens, upstairs, to Unsaved door, and there, looking through a crevice in the door, I saw the two prisoners in the room, at the tiro-place, about to melt • new-looking pewter pot in a tin pan. I sent for • constable, and the door was forced open, and by that time the pot sou quite melted down. I lent • pot to the pri soner Driscoll in the day time, when she fetched t pint of beer. The prisoner M'Cartby bad the metal in her hand, and dropped it into • wishing-tub by her side. Willem Ackrell, serjeant F division, said I went to the prisoners' house and knocked at their room door, which they refused to open. I then burst the door open, lad told them 1 should take them into custody for staling • quart pot. Driscoll said, " I know nothing about it ; rt was this woman (pointing to the other prisooer) who brought the pot up stain, and has got me into this trouble." I asked them where it was, and directly afterwards the prisoner M'Cartby dropped the piece of pewter metal (produced) into a tub of water. Under the tire in the grate I found the tin pan (produced) which the quart pot was melted in. The jury found them Ovii/tr. Mr. Payne said this sou a very bed offence, and uked if the prisoners had been convicted before. . _ . Serjeant Ackrell mid they were 000sected with • gang of "smashers " and utterer; who used the pewter for making counterfeit coin, but they bad been previously con victed.

John Weselline Barclay, of Harmondsworth, on the list for " rent of house and land, 621.," the Cedars, Mermaids worth, was objected to by the liberals. Mr. James—No qualification is set out: The oversew said the claimant occupied the house ; sod ' be put in the lease. The Barrister—lf he will claim as " occupying tenant," it will do. (veneer—He does occupy ; sod here is his lease. Kr. James—He is qualified, but he has not made a legal claim. Barrister—He ought not to be objected to out year. Hie qualification is good ; but be has not claimed for it. Mr. 'Smith drew a proper form of claim, and banded it to the overseer. Name expunged. Elias Dews and Mahe Dews, of Hatton, Bedfont, on the list for "leasehold farm and buildings, under the Lord Chief Baron Pollock and others," was objected to by the liberals. Mr. Dews, father of the claimants, attended to prove the qushficatioe of his sons, to which sod he produced the lease. Mr. James said the lease being for 10 years only gave no franchise. No lease under 20 years would do. The rent was of sufficient value to give the occupation franchise ; but the two young men had claimed for leasehold. Names expunged. . _ The Rev. George Pavne Jarvis, of Laleharn-road, Staines, on the list for freehold pew teats, from the lodependeet Chapel, Thames-street, Masers. Hobert Horton' and others trustee., was objected to by the cooaervatives. Claimant said he became minister of the chapel by aw invitation from the congregation. His appointment was for life, without power of removal. The appointment, signed by the three deacons, was put in ; also the deed of trust, with various endorsements appoint big new trustees. The Barrister said the appointment was unlimited ; and the trusts were to take the pew rents, end pay the stipend, the minister, and other payments. Claimant stated that the chapel mentioned in the deed had been pulled down and rebuilt ; and since that time the other trusts had remained in abeyance, and the whole of the pew rents had been paid him by the deacons. Berrister—Formarly the pew rents went to pay interest on the mortgage. Clannaat mid the debt had been paid off ; and the other expenses formerly defrayed out of the pew rents were now paid by voluntary cantributiona of the congregation ever. sabbath. . . . . . . Smith said the trustees could at any time take the pew rents ioto their own hands. Barrister—But they are bound to pay the 'tipped. It seams that there is other provision for various payments ; sad that Mr. Jarvis re allays the whole of the rents. . . Mr. Stuith—As regards the appoiste;;Z,. Barrister—lt is iudetisib ; there is so power to remove him. Claimant—And here is the voluntary resignation of my predecemor, after a ministr► of 30 years. Mr. James said the vote was clearly good according to the decisions in "Burton siod Brooks" and "Collier and King." The Barrister said the name mud stand. Henry Ball. of Smarten, wbo claimed for freehold hone. and land, the "School !louse," was objected to by the liberals. Claimant stated that, sa a schoolmaster, fished • freehold house, garden, orchard, and an acre and a half of land. Hie appointment was in writing :—•• By virtue of the right vested is me as lord of the manor of Stanwell, 1 hereby appoint Mr. Henry Ball, at present acting muter, to the mastership of the Bramwell Free Grammar School for boys, with all rights thereto belonging. As witness whereof I have set my hand and seal this 26th ds,y of March, 185.5. Joan GIBBONS, Ban." Claimant also headed in a letter from Sir John Gibbons, expressing regret at being unable, in consequence of illnees, to attend the court, and • hope that his wntten statement respecting Ball's vote would do as well se • personal one. Ball was the master of a school endowed by the will of • Lord Knyvett, in 1622, by whirls will the appointment to the mastership is vested in the lord of the manor of Stanwell, but no power of diernimal is given. Accordingly it had, he believed, always been held that the only way to get rid of the muter is by , application to the Court of Chancery. Possibly the Board of Chanty Commissioners might make such a step easier than it was before• but the principle was the same ' sod of mares good reasons would have to be given. He had only to add that he. as lord of the manor, did, after • year's probation, appoint Henry Ball to the mastership of the Stanwell endowed school for boys, and that by virtue of that appointment he is possessed of a dwelling hones, gar den, and orchard, freehold, and of the annual value of coo• siderably mere than 40e. The Barrister thought there ought to be some deed to coafirm this statement. Mr. James said this case had been several times before the barrister, who had always struck oat the vote, Sir John having always refused to produce the documents. Barrister—Unless there is some deed I cannot tell whether the worthy baronet has power to appoint. . Mr. James—A freehold office must be created by deed. You cannot take the note of &gentlemen that he has power to appoint to a freehold often for life. /3;;:riater—l could not take • statement of the Queen in • like case in the absence of • deed. I have Dome's! doubt that Sir John is station the truth ; but the absence of the deed raid to be in his possession creates • legal doubt. Disallowed. garouelliCeetwie Nurse, of Charles-street, Westminster, claimed on the Teddington list for a freehold house, and was o to by the conservatives. ftant proved possession of the freehold. Cron-eternised by Mr. Smith—l hold a contend with the War-office for the supply of beds for recruits. Mr. Smith objected that by the 72 George ILL claimant waa disqualified for voting. Mr. James said the disqualification was for sitting as a member, not for voting. It wu like the case of • judge. He could not sit in the Howe of Commons, but he could vote. Claim allowed.

(" He, hear, and cheers.) He would only my that in re tam for that kindness he would do his utmost to proems and maintain all their important right' and privileges ; that he would endeavour to maintain the anchor character; for hospitality that had been so long enjoyed by the ; city of London, and that he would devote the whole of his time to the important duties of the office to which he had been chosen. (Cheers.) He hoped that by diligence he might emceed in effecting what he' had promised, and that at the end of his year of office he might be entitled to the approval of his fellow citizens. (Cheers.) He again enured them that he felt great pride at having been elected by his fellow citizens of their own free will, and that this would be • solar to him for the re mainder of his life. In conclusion he said that he fully esti mated the high importance of being called upon to act as chief magistrate of a city which might be called the depot.' the commerce of the whole world, and that he would aides your to act so as that his fellow citizens should never regret the choice they bad made. (Great cheering. Deputy Hawn= than stood forward, and said that he felt assured the livery would agree with him that there wee a debt owing to the Lord Mayor who was about to retire from office for the very able manner in which he had dis charged the important duties of that office. (Hoar, helm) Although no very great events had taken place in the City of London during the pest year, still he was sure they would not forget the manner he bad acted in reference to the one important occasion—the presentation of the free dom of the City to the great General Garibaldi, and that they all were of opinion that he was entitled to their thanks for his conduct in this matter. (" Hear, hear," and chews.) He had, therefore, great pleasure in proposing the following resolution That this common hall desire to express to the Hight Hon. the Lord Mayor (Mr. W. Lawrence) their high appreciation on account of the faithful manner in which be ban discharged the important duties of his office, and to tender to his lordship their thanks for the liberal support he has given to the different charities of the City of London, for maintaining on all occasions the dignity of his office, and for his liberal hospitality. The citizens of London regarded i with satisfaction the friendly and hcepitable reception given by the Lord Mayor to General Garibaldi on his being pre sented with the freedom of the City thereby manifesting the strong attachment of his lordship to the cause of liberty, and this common ball desire to express their con viction that, whatever position the Lord Mayor may be called on to fill, he will ever be found the strenuous advocate of the cause of freedom, and the firm upholder of the right@ and privileges of the citizens of London." Mr. Mute= seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The LORD MATOR returned thanks amid loud cheering. He said he felt deeply gratified at the kind and flattering manner in which the resolution bad been adopted by the livery, and that be received it as an intimation that during the year he had tilled the important office of chief magi.- trate of the City of Louden his conduct bad given satisfaction to his brother citizens, and that be bad done all in his power to uphold their ancient rights and privileges, and that all those rights and privileges were as intact as when he commenced his year of office. (Hear, bear.) It was not only of importance to the citizens of London that these privileges should be preserved and upheld, but, as it appeared to him, it was equally of importance to the whole country. (Hear, hear.) The municipality of Loudon was an example to every other municipality in the kingdom, and the City of London had ever been foremost in defending those rights and privileges which were so dear to every Englishman, and which had been maintained for so many centuries, and which he hoped would be preserved to them for many centuries to maw. (" Hear, bear, and cheers.) He bad always been impressed with the importance of the position of chief magistrate of the City of Loudon, and be was of opinion that the highest honour a public man could aspire to was to receive the thanks of his fellow citizens at the conclusion of his year of office in that capacity. (Cheers.) He would add that he felt assured that his successor to the office would exert him self to support the rights of the citizens, and that they would be quite safe in hie bands. (Hear, hear.) Mr. FINLAT then proposed a resolution of thanks to the late sheriff*, Mr. H N. Nana and Mr. T. Cave, for the very able manlier in which they had performed the duties of area office. TIT; resolution was seconded by Mr. R. N. Philippe, and carried unanimously. The late sbenffs returned thanks, and the common ball was then dissolved, a resolution of thanks to the livery com mittee h►ving been previously unanimously agreed to for the steps they had taken to prevent strangers from inter (erring to procmdings like the present.
