CI:CENTER, TUESDAY. The volunteers were kept at the Castle all night, and only disbanded about 6 o'clock this morning. An hour or two after midnight a second company of the 54th Regiment arrived and proceeded to the same destination. In the evening a telegram had been despatched to Earl Grosvenor, who was then in London, stating the apprehended danger to the Castle, and he reached the railway station with his brother, Lord Richard Grosvenor, by the mail at 1 o'clock. Nothing of importance occurred in the night, and this morning few of the unwelcome strangers were to be seen, though it was reported that some hundreds of them were still in the town. Some cartridges and bullets have been found in the streets, as well as two havresacks decorated with green ribbon. Shortly before 11 o'clock a detachment of the Fusilier Guards reached the railway station front Lon don, numbering 11 officers and 530 men. They were received with cheering by a crowd on the platform, but their only business up to the time our parcel was despatched had been to break fast in two divisions at the Grosvenor and Queen Hotels respectively, and march off to their billets. The city was still in a state of excitement, but no sort of danger was apprehended. Very few of the supposed Fenians, we should remark, had left the place by rail, and it is surmised that they must have taken the road, at least for some distance. The majority who arrived on the preceding day had single tickets, though some were furnished with through tickets to Dublin besides. CHESTER, Tuzsour NIGHT, II o'ctocs. The town is quiet. The Guards have caused more excitement than the Fenian*. CHESTER, TURSDAY ArrEasoox. After the Ent feeling of alarm created here yesterday by the mysterious appearance in the town of a number of men, apparently arriving in aoconlance with a pre-oon certed plan, a reassuring statement gained ground to the effect that the whole affair was an elaborately contrived hoax planned to draw off the attention of the police from a prizefight which is known to be pending on the Welsh border. To-day none of the visitors who have created such a commotion are to be seen walking about, though it is believed several hundreds are still in the city. It is a noticeable feet that no arreate have been made in connexion with the supposed " raid." It is said that revolvers were seen in the hands of several of the men, but our correspondent could not arrive at any well-founded evidence that such was the case, and it is probable that this is one of the many r xaggerated rumours that are current. It is, however•, certain that this morn ing one of the police found a number of gun-cartridges in a field near the railway station. In answer to the commu nication of the magistrates to the Secretary of State a de tachment of the Soots Fusilier Guards. 550 strong, arrived here from London at 10.30 this morning. They were re ceived with loud cheers by the crowd assembled in the station. ABEEST OF SUSPECTED FENIANS IN DUBLIN. DUBLIN, TOVIDAY Nltarr. On the arrival of the Holyhead and Liverpool steamers this morning at the North Wall, between 00 and 70 of the passenger., apparently men belonging to the working classes, were arre.ded on a chaise of Fenianistu. They were all conveyed to riackville-lane police-station, where they remain at pre.ut. The muiserigers had very little money, and no arms. Three revolvers and a bullet mould were found near where some of them were standing, and the police suspect, from mmements which they observed before going on board, that anus were thrown Into the river. _ It is supposed the prisoners had some connection with the per.ons who appeared in Chester. They seemed to be under the impression that the habeas Corpus Act is no longer suspended in Ireland. A true bill for treason-felony was found to-day against Stephen J. Ninny. HEALTH OF LONDON. —lt appears front the return issued by authority of the Registrar-General that in the week that ended ou Saturday, Feb. if, the births registered in London and twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,629 ; the deaths registered, 3,375. The annual rate of mortality was 2M per 1,000 persons living, In London the births of 1,173 boys and 1,126 girls, in all 2,299 children, were registered in the week. In the cor responding w e eks of t e n years, 1957-06, the average num ber, corrected for increase of population, is 2,252. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1.567. It was the sixth week of the year ; and the avenge number of deaths for the week is, with a comectiou for increase of population. 1,527. The :teeth.; iu the present return exceed the estimated number by 40. Under the influence of a milder temperature the mortality has de creased. but the effects of the recent severe cold are still perceptible in the returns. The deaths front bronchitis in the last three weeks were ;09, 271, and 204 ; from pneumonia in the same periods 97i, 92, and $7 respectively. The deaths of 36 nonagenarians have been registered in London during the last three weed • 47 deaths from small-pox, V from scarlatina, 69 from whoopinipcough, and 42 from typhus were registered last week.

LORD Dzaav has not imitated the colourless neutrality of his predecessor in the matter of the Jamaica prosecutions ; it will be seen by our Bow street Police reports that his Govenunent has undertaken the legal defence of Colonel NELsox and Lieutenant BRAND. Our readers know by the Blue Book what those gentle men did in Jamaica, and, knowing that, will not be surprised that Lord DERBY should be inclined to take part with them. It must seem to him monstrous that they should be called, and that by private individuals, to account for their deeds before a court of law. We have nothing to say against his consistency in backing up the Jamaica performances of these gentlemen, nor against his employing the public resources fur the same purpose, because liberty to do all this was implied in his accession to office. He is the acknowledged leader of the privileged classes of this country, and we do not expect him to act as the trustee of the people. If this great Liberal nation permits the continuance of a repre sentative system which may at any moment saddle it with a Tory Government, it must expect to see such things as these done. Mr. Eves may envy his red-handed subordinates ; he has his energetic supporters, but their Defence Committee is the English Government, with the needful funds already in hand, and every requirement at com 'nand. And yet there are those who say that the Jamaica prosecutions are unnecessary, and that —with Mr. Disaseit's speech on martial law on record—it is chimerical to imagine that what was dune by authority in Jamaica could not possibly take place in the United Kingdom.—Daily News. THE MINISTERIAL REFORM RESOLUTIONS. BIRMINGHAM, TIMIDAT Incwr. A crowded and enthusiastic meeting was held to-night in the Town-ball, to consider the present aspect of the question of parliamentary reform. Lord Teynbam presided. The following telegram from Mr. John Bright was received with much cheering :—" The proposals of the government are only calculated to disappoint, to insult, and to irritate all who are acting for an honest reformation in the representation." The following resolution, moved by Alderman Hawke', seconded by Mr. W. Radford, and supported by Professor Rogers, of Oxford, was unani mously carried:—" First. That this meeting, having con sidered the statements of the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the government resolution, is of opinion that the pro positions of her Majesty's government are an insult to the country and a deception attempted on the people ; that the government have neither the honesty nor the will to pass any satiafactory measure of parliamentary reform ; and that our representatives be requested to invite the Roam of Commons forthwith to declare its want of confi dence in her Majesty's ministers.' A resolution in favour of manhood suffra,;e and the ballot was also carried. Mr. Ernest Jones, of Manchester, addressed the meeting. The O'Donoghue war unable to be present. A crowded meeting of delegates from provincial towns was held yesurday at Adelphiterrace, at 12 o'clock, to consider the resolutions of the government, and the future course to he pursued by the League in reference thereto. Mr. Bottles occupied the chair. Most of tile large towns in England, and several in Scotland, as well as the Irish League, were represented. After n long discus sion the following resolutions were unanimously agreed to:-1. " That such resolutions are wholly unsuited to meet the exigencies of the present crisis, and that the time has smiled in which the wierifranchi;mil portion of the people of Great Britain and Irelind have a right to demat."l from the legislature immediate and effective action is favour of a real and substantial reform of the represen tation, and to insist upon not being any longer trilled with in the establishment of their electoral righta." 2. That the people having exhibited a spirit of much for bearance in lending their support to a recent measure of reform, which fell far short of their just expectations, and which was defeated by the forty now in power combining for that purpose with profsfssed but iimincere liberals, this meeting beg very respectfully. but moat emphatically, to warn the members of the House of Commons that the country is no longer dispose 1 to accept a similar measure from any party, and especially beg to impress upon the minds of the liberal members of that house that if they desire to retain the confidence of the people they must he prepared to insist upon such a measure of reform as shall embody the principles of the Reform League. or otherwise secure to the unenfruichised millions their lull share, free from all undue influences, in the choice of persons to re present theta in their own branch of the legislature." Mr. John Burt, of Glasgow, president of the Scottish National Reform League, then proposed, and Mr. W. R. Croft, of Huddersfield, seconded, the following resolution, which was also carried unanimously:—" We, the undersigned country delegates, having full confids ice in the wisdom and prudence of th e president and couneil of the National Reform League, resolve, on behalf of our various constituencies, to continue to be guided by, and to co-operate with, them in further prosecution of the great question of parliamentary reform, the 'settlement of which is essential to the peace, prosperity, and happiness of the I nation. And we now call upon the whole people to assert their unqualified determination never to rest contented until full justice be done to them as regards their electoral rights." It was next resolved—" That the question of ' calling a conference, or national oonveutioo, be left with the League." The president was then cordially thanked for Lis untiring assiduity and devotion to the people's cause, and the meeting separated. A general meeting of the members of the Work ing Men's Association was held lust night at the Sussex Hotel, llouverisestreet, Fleet-street, to consider the pre sent position of the reform question. Mr. George Potter occupied the chair, and having reed the resolutions pro rit by the Chanoellor of the Exchequer, said he trusted Caidstone would meet the proposals of the govern ment by a direct negative. He would be supported in that course by the great mass of the people. Mr. Troup thought, upon the whole, the resolutions were good reso lutions. At any rate they should not prejudge the govern ment. He would move "That the association, while maintaining its avowed principles of 111.1811 CW suffrage mud the What and the more equal representation of all classes, defer expressing an opinion upon the government resolutions on reform until the pre cise terms are placed before parliament on the 2.lth of the present month. Mr. G. Brooke seconded the resolution. Mr. Hartwell moved the following amendment :—" That this association having considered the resolutions upon reform introduced into the House of Commons on Monday evening by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, is of opinion the great majority of those resolutions are most vague and unsatisfactory ; and is further of opinion that any reform bill which may be founded upon those resolutions would fall very far short of the just expettations of the people." Mr. Blight seconded the amendment, which, after a long discussion, was carried by Is large majority. The Secretary stated, in reply to a question, that the meeting of trades delegates, to be held on Friday evening next, would consi der the propriety of holding another demonstration of the London trades, to be attended by large deputations from the provincial trades, somewhere about Easter. THE BIRMINGHAM LIBERAL ANSOcIATION AND THE GieVERIOIENT REsuLtrfloNA.—A meeting of the com mittee of the Birmingham Liberal iveweixtion Was hell yesterday morning, to enesitler the reform resolutions of the government. Mr. Alderman Hawkes presided, and the Mayor and many other gentlemen were present; and it was unanimously resolved:—" That this meeting, having heard the ministerial resolutions, considers that they are framed with the intention of delaying a settlement of the question of reform, and of opposing the just demand of the people; that the ministers proposing such resolutions are unworthy of the confidence of the country ; and that therefore the °nicer, of shis association he instructed to confer with the members for the borough as to the action which ought to be taken by the liberal party in the present condition of affairs." The remains of the late William Dorgan were removed from his late residence. Fitzwilliamaquare, Dublin, shortly after 9 o'clock on Monday morning, for interment in Glasnotin Cemetery. The melancholy event appeared to excite the deepest mt4.rest amongst his many admirers, and the various approschea to his residence were for a ooludderable time before the hour of removal thronged by mourners aed vehicles to take part in the proce.sion. The remains were placed in • hearse, drawn by four horses, which moved off followed by three mourn ing coaches. All classes were represented on the melon awl), occasion. [STAMPED, Id. 6 ADDITIOIAL T ] THE COMMONS PRESERVATION SOCIETY. The council of this society have just hold a meet ing, at their offices in Parliament-street, for the purpose of electing a president, and deliberating upon their course of action with respect to the me- ' tropolitan 00111111011/1 said to be improperly assailed. I Among those present were Mr. Shaw Lefevre, M.P. in the chair), the Right Hon. W. CowperH M.P., Mr. J. S. Mill, M.P., Sir Fowell Buxton, M.P. Mr. Charles Buxton, M.P., Mr. Gilbert Marshal], Mr. Gurney Hoare Mr. Charles Pol lock, and Mr. R. Du Cane. M r. W. Cowper, M.P., was unanimously elected president of the society, ' and accepted the position. Epping Forest, Black heath, and Hampstead Heath were again subjects ' of discussion, and correspondence relating to what ' is acquiring some notoriety as "the Willingale ' ' case ' was read by the secretary. The Willingales are labouring men living at Loughton, near Epping Forest, one of whom exercised the ' right of cutting wood on what has been ' held from time immemorial to be com mon laud. The lord of the manor, a clergy man, prosecuted him for this, and he was committed to prison by the local bench. The matter was subsequently taken up by those inte rested in the preservation of common-rights, and the case of the copyholders and the public, as re presented by Willingale, is being argued before the Master of the Rolls. Meanwhile the man himself has been turned out of his cottage by his landlord, who is also the lord of the manor, and deprived of his means of support ; and Mr. Shaw Lefevre, M.P., and Mr. Thomas Hughes, M.P., agreed to act as co-trustees to a fund to recompense him for the losses he had incurred. Upon this a Mr. Samuel L. Howard, J. P., of the Goldings, Loughton, took Mr. Hughes to task, and a brisk correspondence followed. Mr. Howard warned Mr. Hughes that Willingale was " an undeserving character," that his family was "one of the worst brought up in the parish," that " parenta and children seldom or never attend any place of worship, and that the latter never go to day, night, or Sunday school." Mr. Howard concludes by apologising to Mr. Hughes, to whom he was an entire stranger, for his letter, " which is only prompted by an Englishman's love of justice and fair play." Two other letters from Mr. Howard followed, in each of which the Willingales' utter worthlessness was proclaimed. Mr. Hughes having asked in vain for the specific grounds upon which the bad character of the Willingales" was spoken of, added that he " must have precise facts and statements before withdrawing his name from a case which he considered thoroughly deserving of support and assistance." Nothing definite was heard inreply, and Mr. Hughes' share in the correspondence climbed with this suggestive implication : "I have reason to be lieve that you yourself are in the occupation of some 13 acres lately enclosed from the forest ; and is so, that your evidence in this matter, volunteered against a poor family who were endeavouring to maintain old rights over the forest land, is not that of a disinterested witness." Mr. Howard considered this " insinuation moat discourteous to say the least," but did not deny its truth, and the Commons Preservation Society having gone into the vague charges brought against the Willingales, consider them unfounded and vexatious, and that the case deserves public support. It was further agreed to form a deputation to Lord John Manners on the subject of Epping Forest generally. Under the Crown Lands Act of last session the forestal rights of the Crown, and the non-profitable portionsof Crown property,are vested in the Chief Communion of Works, instead of the Chief Commission of Woods, and it is with the view of urging upon Lord J. Manners the necessity of preserving the forest for the enjoyment of the public that the Preservation Society's action will be taken. At Blackheath, the Board of Works has been consulted by the residents • and Mr. Gurney Hoare announced thlt Sir Thomas Wilson had been restrained for the present in his course of building on and injury to Hampstead-heath by an ad lateral+ in junction from the Court of Chancery. The house the foundations of which arelaid close totheriagstaff near Jack Straw's Castle, and which if completed would have shut out one of the choicest and must favourite views on the heath, is already sumo feet ' from the basement, and but for the legal proceed ' Mgt would have been probably roofed in before this. Some weeks ago the Commons Preservation Society advised the inhabitants of Hampstead to form a local association, and sent a deputation to its initiatory meeting. The immediate resuit has been that building on the heath has been stopped, and those interested deprecate the interference of the Board of Works, and suggestions for the purchase of Sir Thomas Wilson's vague " rights," until their appeal to the law has shown them what those rights really are.

THE REPRESENTATION OF EAST SUrroLE.— Irswicit.Teitan.sv.—The candidature of Loral RemUesham has not ken looked upon very favourably by the tenant farmers of East Suffolk, who complain that they were not consulted in the matter, but,nevertheleas, a rumour which was circulated on the opening of the market this afternoon, that his lordship bad retired in favour of Mr. F. S. Cor rea«, of Bruadwaters, Frinlinghain, was received with a good deal of incredulity. It named out to be well founded, however, and at a meeting of some of the leaders of the conservative party Lord Renallesham announced it as his intention to retire, and Mr. Corrance was requested to allow his name to be put in requisition. Later in the after noon an whims was tamed by Lord Rendlesham, explain. ing his reasons for retiring. He says he has "endea voured to ascertain the feelings of the electors as far as the very limited time which has elapsed would permit, and I think it right to state at once that I do not find that I have three promises of support which I had anticipated, and which would be likely to ensure success." He further says that, finding it more in accord ance with the wishes of the conservative electors that he should retire in favour of Mr. Corm:ace, he does so. Mr. Corranee has also issued an address, in which he say*, " I solicit your support on the following grounds :—I am a conservative, and a member of the established church. I can give a conscientious support to her 3laiesty'a present adnamistnition upon every measure about to be submitted to the houses of parliament as foreshadowed in the Queen's speech. In any future capacity I shall not relax my efforts to obtain the remission of the nix on malt." After market, a large meeting of the conservative party was held at the White Horse Hotel, at which Mr. ('or. ranee was present, and spoke at considerable length of the circumstances which induced him to allow himself to be put in nomination.

CIWOPENCE THE WORKHOUSE INFIRMARY ASSOCIATION. The committee of this association met on Mon day last to consider the provisions of Mr. Hardy's Metropolitan Poor Law Bill ; Earl GROMTENOR in the chair. The meeting was numerously attended, and included Lord Charles Bruce, M.P., the Hon. Dudley Fortescue, M.P., Mr. Julian Goldsmid, M.P., • Mr. Arthur Mills, Mr. Henry Goschen, Sir Walter James, Mr. Briscoe, Dt.P., and many others. Mr. Hardy's proposed measure met with general approval, though some speakers objected to its not being sufficiently comprehensive. The principle of taking the duty of relieving the sick poor out of the hands of people whose direct interest it is to save expense ; the abolition of the local acts under which ten London parishes are governed ; the placing the salaries of doctors and other medical charges upon a common fund ; all met with un qualified approbation. Grave doubts were ex pressed whether a system of unpaid nominees would work well, and it was remarked that, while the portion of Mr. Hardy's measure which embodied the recommendations of the asso ciation commanded universal approval out of doors, some of the points added would probably occasion controversy. An east-end clergyman, speaking to the meeting in the name of his fellow guardians, protested that it would be impossible to carry out the asylumsancridtemtionsasproposed without afar greater extension of the common fund principle than was proposed ; and Mr. Ernest Hart pointed out to the meeting that the provision for contagious dis eases would put typhus fever upon the common fund, while a typhoid fever case would be left in the same hands as at present. Again, the question of expense was seriously discussed. The scheme of the association provided six district hospitals Lir the whole of the sick poor, at an outlay of 250,0001., while Mr. Hardy's estimate for a portion of the same class is 400,000/. The original recommenda tions made through the agency of the association, and endorsed by the leading medical authorities of the kingdom, are as follows : The sick poor should be separated from the able•bofficil pauper., and their treatment should be placed under a distinct management. In lieu of sick wards annexed to each workhouse, consolidated infirmaries should be pro vided, where the following rules of hospital management should be adopted under skilled supervision. They are those generally accepted in this and other European coun tries:-1. The buildings should he specially devised for the purpose, of suitable construction, and on healthy sites. The rules laid down by the Barrack and Hospital Commis sion may be consulted with advantage on this subject. 2. Not less than 1,000 (and for particular classes of cases 1,:700 to 1,300) cubic feet of air should be allowed to each patient. :1. The nursing should be COIOIIMA entirely by • paid AIM. and there should be not less than one day nurse, one night nurse, and one assistant nune fur each fifty patients. 4. There shoal be resident medical officers in the proportion of not less than one for each 230 patients. 5. The medical officers should not have any pecuniary interest whatever in the medicines supplied, nor should they be charged' with the duty of dispensing them. 6. A judicious classification of patients should be strictly observed, the epiliptio and imbecile, the acutely , sick, and the aged and infirm being treat,..l in separate wards. 7. The aged and infirm , the chronically sick, sod the convalescent should be provided with day rooms isepa-. rate from the dormitoi les. It will be seen that these foregoing clauses are incorporated almost literally into r. Hardy's bill. After a careful analysis of this measure, as fore shadowed by its introducer, bad been given by Mr. Ernest Hart, two resolutions were unanimously agnied to. First—" That this ixinnuittee recog nises with great 'satisfaction that the bill intro duced by Mr. Hardy embodies litcra:ly . thi, greater number of suggestions that they have laid befAtt• Mr. Villiers and himself for the bettor manage ment of the workhouse inlirmarita, and the better treatment of the sick. They regret that he has not been able to place a larger numeer of the sick upon the common fund, with. the view to relieve to a greater extent the poorer par!. dies ; and they entertain doubts as to the successful working of the proposition for adding a proyortion of unpaid nominees to the guardian board ;" and, secondly, " That a sub-committee should be appointed to examine the clauses of the bill and report upon it before the second reading, such sub-eutuu.ittee to consist of Earl Grosvenor, M.l'., Charles Bruce, M.P., Mr. Davenport Br.c lac , M.P., Mr. Laurence Oliphant, M.P., Mr. Julian Goldsmid, M.P., the Hon. Dudley Fortescue, M. P., the Rev. Mr. :WOW, Dr. Carr, Mr. J. C. l';.rkin..on, and the honorary officers of the association." THE ROYAL H LT KA L S.
