Mile-end New.town, touching the death of John ?I:a ray, a ged Ali years. Murray, the widow of the deceased, said—Last • 14 , t I clept in the street. I had no home. My husband a fellowship porter, and he had bought the freedom • tat: City cf London. lie got consumption, and lost I, k. Nine weeks ago the doctor told him to go into ti. workhouse. We went into the Whitechapel Union, 1 prayed very much to come out. He had worked .4 he could, and he sold paper hats made out of t' .• rims of paper-hangings, for a penny each in the streets. 1k could hardly creep about. When in the workhouse be Anne, 111 newel die here." I said, "You shan't." .1 6,• doctor said, " lie is not fit to move." He came out en Tuesday. Coroner-- You brought him out to die in the street. Witness -He had his wish. I should have had it on 1.. y conscience if he had died in a workhouse. We went to Ift . I korge-street, Spitallields. We went to bed. At I o'clock he woke up and said, " Anne, pray for me. live we a light." Ile died shortly after. Tao witness wan cross-examined, and she admitted that a'. n she and her husband left the "house," they went to a t_,vem and spent cal. out of Is. lid. that they had. She but also refused to put a mustard poultice on her husband when a doctor ordered it. She said, ' What is the use of putting a plaster on a dying man. He is nothing but bars houo sus: , . . . A pulice sergeant said he knew the witawn as an habi tual druukard. A jar r said that she used to go into publicdicaumes and r.,1l for .pints, and then rush out and pay for them. ste but been imprisoned fur drunkenness. Edwin l'erry, deputy at the lodging-house, said that the aV aan was drunk when her husband was dying. She 34noyed him very much, and although be was dying he took up a shovel to try and defend himself. He struck ter three times. After her husband's death she remained up until the public-houses opened. Margaret Sennett said that when the deceased was dying he cried out to his wife, " For God's sake leave me alone ; let me die in peace." She would not let him lie and he was compelled to strike her. ►lr. S. Syer, surgeon, proved that the deceased died from inflammation of the lungs. He ought not to have icon taken out of the workhouse. The coroner addressed the wife and said, "You have helped your husband into the grave. You leave the court dis;race to your sex, and if you do not give up your la.astly propensity for drink you will either end your life by suicide or you will go to the gallows." He then told the jury that he thought it would be useless for them to formally censure a wretch of that kind. The jury returned a verdict of "Death from inflamma tion of the lungs." ATTEMPT TO I,PERT THE LIMITED MAIL NEAR WIGAN. Yesterday morning, at the Bounty police-court, Iloothalls, Wigan, Michael Flatly, a navvy, a stranger in the town, was charged with placing an obstruction on the London and North Western Railway, in the township of Ince, with intent to upset the limited mail. The charge was not gone into, as inspector Peters, who had only taken the prisoner into custody at midnight, applied for a remand, which was granted. The offence, which was committed last Sunday evening, was of a most diabolical character, and it is satisfactory to know that the information in the possession of the police goes far to bring home the crime to the man in custody. between 10 and 11 on the evening named Flatly and another man rambling with a workman named Herne in the neighbourhood of the spot where the recent attempts were made to throw the down mail off the line, just outside the boundary of the borough of Wigan, when Flatly and his companion resolved to have a " good jump," and with that intention they placed one of the heavy sleepers which was lying in the road acmes the up line, and then two others on the top of it at right angles to hold it in its place. Herne remon strated with the men for committing so das:ardly an act, and he removed the obstruction but the fellows threatened him with personal violence if he interfered, and he left them, moving oil in the direction of Wigan, as they were replacing the sleepers. He had not gone far before he was overtaken by the prisoner,who informed him with glee that he had not only refixed the three, but added a fourth. All the men came on to Wigan, and Herne seized the first opportunity of writing a note to the station-master, in. forming him that an obstruction had been placed on the lane somewhere between Wigan and St. Helen's, informa tion too vague to be acted upon, and received too late to prevent the pas-age of the limited mail over the dangerous spot, even had the precise locality been pointed out. Ever since the late outrages two men have been kept on the look out nightly at this part of the line, and it was not thought possible that any fresh attempt would be made there. The up mail, which passes through Wigan without stopping, is due soon after half-past 11, and on Sunday night it appears to have passed about the usual time at full speed nod, happily, in safety, though how it reaped snot have been next to miraculous. The follow ing morning the person whose duty it is to inspect the line between \I man and Spring's Branch was unable to explain several indications which he met with, and it was not until they were led by the light of the letter received the previous evening that it was discovered bow narrowly a terrible acci dent had been escaped. About 150 yards on the south of the place where the engine was thrown off the rails a few months ago by miscreants not yet detected two sleepers were found lying in the up line parallel with the rails, while a short distance away was a tbird sleeper, one end of which had been chopped elf, while at the other end was a mark which had evi dently been made by the life-guard placed in front of the wheelie( the engine. The position of the sleepers showed pretty plainly that the one which bad been first placed on the rails had fortunately been the first caught by the engine, which had driven it from its position before the fire box reached the couple placed on the top, and these dropped quietly to the ground harmless. Had they pro jected a little further it is believed nothing could rive the train from destruction, as the oollision with the fire-box would have thrown the engine off the rails at once. But Flatly mentioned to Herne that be had added • fourth sleeper to the others, and there were indications along the road that 1b . ., had been carried for three-quarters of a mile in feint of the engine until at Spring's Branch it had been caught by a wing rail, which splintered a piece from one end and threw it over so as to project into the six. foot, which was ploughed op a little for some 30 or 40 rude, and then luckily the engine threw aside the last of the obstruction. It is most remarkable that, so far as is known, neither engine -driver nor passengers appear to have been aware of any impediment to their progress. The police were promptly communicated with, and, having heard Herne's statement, they kept a sharp look-out for Flatly, whom they succeeded in apprehending at mid night on Thursday. His &winter:it in this diabolical " fun" de, it is believed, left the neighbourhood. Both men I ,ve been employed for • short time in the construction tf a ram at the works of the Wigan Coal sad Iron Company. THE RECTOR OF TCRWE9TON AND THE Doo. Ile following appears in the Times:—" exagge rated report appeared in your impression of Monday hut of a ease that was helrfl by the magistrates in petty sessions at Buckingham, and as I have received a number of letters on the subject I must ask you to have the kind ters insert my explanation of the transaction. I bad fora length of time been annoyed by the flog frequenting prandays, and I thought the application of a small quantity of turpentine applied on the back might cause Liu' a moderate amount of pain and prevent his annoying rein futon ; a thrashing, I believed at the time and Lelia., now would have caused much more pain, and nobody wonld have thought of accusing me of cruelty for that. The evidence of the veterinary surgeon was that iirpentine would canoe pain and irritation, but that the rfeet would pass off in an hone. As to the statement that the owner feared the dog was mad, it was certainly so stated by the oofinsel for the society, but there was not a word of Proof of it ; on the contrary, the owner's daughter stated that though the dog ' hallooed' when he came home, he Kan became quiet, and slept in the house. I am cer tainly sorry that I used the turpentine at all, as the action has exposed me to be the 'object of so m uch exaggeration; but I did not do it with the slightest nitration of torturing the animal, as I was particularly careful not to allow it to touch any tender parts. I simply wished to scare the dog away without doing him any real M_y own unconsciousness of evil may appear from the fact of my own statement being the chief evidence against rce ; and it could not have been considered a bad ease even by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, as the secretary offered to withdraw from the prosecution on the morning of the day when the case was beard by the magistrates; but to this I could not consent, HP character having been, as I thought, so unjustly as aaded.—l caw , Ina, W. VARLET.—Turweston, Bucks, bstd. 2f1." WE IN THE FAR WEET.--SAlf. VANCE SHOT. — Tbi.lnan, well known in Nevada, where he bore a bad Rotation, was shot at Austin, August 3. The Reese r R , eeille gives the following particulars :—" Vance antetel the Bank Exchange saloon, and seeing Irish Tom stsndiug outsid e h e as k e d hi m t o drink with him. The latter refus e d, saying he bad enough. Vans* replied, you don't drink, I'll take a shot at yen," and drawing a derringer pistol, he tired at but missed Irish Tom. Tom instantly drew his revolver and fired at Vance, but the boa missed him and lodged in the jamb of the door. Vance was caught by officer Marshall as Torn fired the second shot. The ball took effect in the lower part of the fib dotuen, and indicted a dangerous if not a mortal wound. — rosette fifer. BOARD OF TRADE RETURNS.-(THIS DAY.) This morning the Board of Trade returns for the month ending August 31 were issued. The fol lowing shows the declared value of the exports of British and Irish produce and manufactures for the month of August in the last three years : August. 1865 E17,450,4,158,648 „ 1866 „ 1867 It will be seen from this statement that the ex port trade again exhibits a large increase over the corresponding period of last year. The comparison between the first eight months to which the returns extend is as follows : Night months, 1867, 1:102,400,096 1866 125,263,820 Of 1867 ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR OF LONDON. (THIS DAY.) This afternoon, the Lord Mayor, sheriffs, alder men, and other members of the corporation of London as sembled in the Guildhall for the purpose of electing • Lord Mayor of London for the ensuing year, in the room of Alderman Sir Thomas Gabriel, Bart., whose year of office will expire on the Bth of November next. The members of the Corporation proceeded in state to the church of St. Michael, where prayers were read and a sermon preached . by the Rev. J. Russell Stock, M.A., of St. Joan's College, Cambridge, rector of Allhallows, Thames-street. . . After service the Lord Mayor and aldermen proceeded to the hustings at the eastern end of the Guildhall, when the rewly-elected sheriffs (Mr. Alderman Stone and Mr. W. M'Arthur), in virtue of their office, presided over the election of the future chief magistrate. Shortly afterwards the names of those aldermen who have served the office of sheriff, and who alone are eligible to fill the office of Lord Mayor, had been announced, the Lard Mayor and aldermen retired, so that the freedom of election might not be interfered with. The livery returned Mr. W. F. Allen and Mr. J. C. Lawrence, two aldermen below the chair, and their names were communicated to the Court of Alder men, who, in the course of a few minutes, reentered the hall and formed in procession, declaring that the election had fallen on Alderman Allen, who will be Lord Mayor for the year 1'467-8. The announcement was received with cheers, and the Lord Mayor elect briefly thanked his fellow citizens for the honour they had conferred on him.

G. 0." has written a sarcastic letter to the Ti ma with regard to the Pan• Anglican Synod. Notwith standing the "histrionic solemnity" with which it has been sought to invest the proceedings, the decisions arrived at can, he contends, have no real authority ; and the effect will be to widen " the breach between the laity, who will not be priesti-idden, and that portion of the clergy and their followers who are so bent on restoring priest power." In concluding, the writer says he is satisfied that this strange assembly is viewed with suspicion by many of the soundest of the English bench, though it has been powerless to prevent it. Archbishop Manning has addressed a pastoral letter to his clergy, which has been published by Messrs. Longman, under the title of " The Centenary of Saint Peter and the General Council." Mrs. Alfred Mellon will be the future directress at the Adelphi Theatre. A huge sewage reservoir is now being formed on the 3ludlands close to the platform in Southampton, where the oyster beds need to be. Enormous pipes as large as the funnels of gig:nide steamers will be connected with the reservoir, so as to convey the sewage far out into the stream at high water. The tin mines in Cornwall have been worked for 3,000 years. They are now yielding 3,500 tons par annum. The Spanish tin mines have been known nearly as long as the Cornish ones. Tin was lint discovered in Bohemia and Meissen in the 12th century. There are tin mines in Saxony, France, Sweden, and Siberia ; also in Peru, Chili, Bolivia, and Mexico. Those in Mexico avid South Ame rica were at work at the time of Cortez's invasion. The United States imported tin to the value of nearly 6,000,000 dollars in 1860. It chiefly came from the Malay peninsula. SWEARING IN OF THE New SHISREFFS.—(THIR Dar.)—This morning Mr. Alderman Stone and Mr. William M'Arthur, recently elected sheriffs of London and Middlesex for the ensuing year, assumed the duties of the office, succeeding in that respect Sir Alderman Water low and Sir Francis Lycett. The ceremony took place in the Guildhall before the Lord Mayor (Sir Thomas Gabriel), the members of the Court of Aldermen, and the principal officers of the corporation, all of them wearing their civic robes. THE LATE ELECTION FOR rIIRMINGHAM.—Ex- PENSES OF THE CANDIDATE4.-I,mA week wo published the election amounts of Mr. George Dixon, the successful candidate, as returned to the mayor, in accordance with the act of parlkiment. Yesterday the amounts of Mr. S. S. Lloyd, the unsuccessful candidate, were issued. The ex penditure on Mr. Dixon's behalf was 3,630/. lls. 10d. • and on Mr. Lloyd's, 5,0091. 6a. 3d.—making the total cod of the election 8,6 681. 184. ld. . . CLOSE OF INERLY GARDENS.—After an existence of something more than a quarter of • century these gar dens ceased to exist on Saturday, the 28th of September, when Mr. Archibald Hinton, who bad been the proprietor for the last nine years, took his benefit. This once very popular place of suburban recreation is to he built over and converted into villa residences. Anerly Gardens rose into popularity on the decline and fall of the once cele brated Beulah Spa at Norwood.—Zeci. POPULAR SUPERSTITION IN IRELAND.—A singu lar instance of popular superstition occurred • few days rinse at Meyross, in the west of the county of Cork, and had wellnigh been attended with serious conse quences. The body of an American captain, whose vessel had been wrecked on the mast, was recently washed ashore and buried in the Meyross churchyard. His friends however, desired to remove the reinains to the United I State., and proceeded to disinter them for that purpose. The peasantry have a traditional belief that the removal of a body which has been for some time buried causes ex traordinary mortalityin the locality for the next 12 mouths, and they therefore regard such a proceeding with horror. When the party came to exhume the remains they found an unexpected opposition, which every effort failed to overcome. The people, filled with excitement, rushed to the graveyard armed with every weapon upon which they could lay hands, and drove the strangers forcibly away. The pariah priest interfered and attempted to persuade theta that their alarm was groundless, but they would not listen to him, and they persisted in refusing to let the grave be disturbed. So bent are they upon preventing it that they have sentinels watching day and night lest the object should be effected by surprise. On the other hand, the friends of the deceased have not abandoned their M- I tention, but threaten to call in the aid of the military to enforce their right. _ _ A TRAGEDY.—An extraordinary tragedy has just taken place at Jonaiees (Mane). A young woman named Arsine Griset had been seduced by • farm servant, named Robin. of the same village, who, however,' resolved to repair his fault , and meeting her brother at • fete in in the neighbourhood asked her in marriage. This was the first intimation the Iststmamed had received of his 'liter's fault. He returned home during the night, took • gun, and ordered her to get up and follow him, flaying that he mount to kill her and himself after. The father endeavoured to calm the son, but the latter pointed the arm at hint and compelled him to retire. The young woman, overcome with terror at the menaces of her brother, followed him to a distance from the house, when he discharged the gun into her breast, killing her on the spot, and then blew out his own brains. __ 100 WS 100 100 100 SHARE LISTS.-(THIS DAY.) 01DINANY MAIM AND STOCKS ZADMAIIII crif:=7 I In' 83 86 104 103 16 U 48 3 6 TS 76 78 71 110 3 112 31 13 4 6 16 14 110 112 116 117 124 1:43 311 1' Qs 96 48 •8; 22 82 29 91 127 128 64 A 12 16 114 1141 82 84 49 124 12 111 113 67 90 12le 122 90 02 •=i 33i pm 116 117 1 11 pm et te 100 117 4431 671 45 47 eti eat 143 146 —pa 105 I Id 1211 1 2 11 , Bristol asd Beta ,CaWoolen —— 'Camtetaa 1 0orowall Dahtla audßodastituto DuzidearareatAbdiu INS Lad= Do.

Otnt efteoz. In consequence of the absence of business, very few variations have occurred to-day in the stock markets, but the tendency is rather firm. The additional news received to-day has strengthened the belief that no serious political disturb ance will arise in Italy through the arrest of Garibaldi, while it is expected that a consider able amount of gold will be sent into the Bank next week. But for these favourable considerations the transactions would probably exhibit a slight preponderance of sales. Consols and most of the British railway securities are quoted the same as yesterday, and the changes in foreign stocks, though in an upward direction, are not important. There is no new feature in the discount market, the supply of money being still very large, the de mand moderate, and the rates for choice bills with_ out change.

An extraordinary meeting of the shareholders in the Chartered Bank of India, Australis, and China will be held on the 16th of October, for the pur pose of declaring an interim dividend for the half year ended the 30th June last.
