IMT. Joss CILAPY•te, auditors. The report revise been reed, The CHAIRAIAN rem to move its eoptin. The balance sheet woe d fully Jahn the shareholders of what amount of apical had bees received by tte director, sad how it had been expended. The accounts had bean kept in a clear, in tellisible manner, and he was glad to sea that the auditors lad thnoght it their duty to make a special report on the 'abject. (Hear, hear.) As he was on the subject of audit, be might be allowed to make a few remarks relative to the audit bill mantle before parliament. A bill ea the subject having been sent down from the Howe of Lords to the Commons, the Earl of Lone. dale, Mr. Glyn ' Mr. Rowell, Mr. Chaplin, he (the chair man), sad other gentlemen connected with the direction of wallow's, waited ea a deputation on Lord John Russell and Mr. Labouchme, and painted out to them not only the objections that existed to government isterference with railway compsniee, bet also that if passed it would be utterly imprucicable to carry the bill into effect. The noble lord and Mr. Labouchen treated the deputation with the utmost kindness, and expressed their unwillingness to interfere with public companies, provided they could bare en aesrance that the Marcus of the public and share holder. could be protested in any ether way. The report which had Lien read to them detailed the state of that portion of the hoe which wee opened, of that portion which would he opened in a few weeks, and also that portion be tween London and Petrabotough, which it was calculated would be opened next year. Within the last few days himself and the deputy-chairman had toiled—for he would sot say walked—over those portions of the line in course of construc tive between Peterborough and London ; and, as far as they had the means of judging, they believed there would be no difficulty whatever in having the line opened in the course of the next autumn: therefore he hoped when they met at this , time next the directors would be enabhd to tell them that the line throughout, from Loadon to York, would be ready for opening in the course of a few weeks. (Hear, hear.) Re would call their attention to that part of the report relative ti the fortt hod shares. The resolution which had been come to at the last meeting relative to those shares appeared to have operated most satisfactorily. There had been 24,000 old shares forfeited, whiai bad been divided into 48,000 shares of 121. 10s., and offered to the proprietors, sad, with the exception of 6,000 shares, they had all been taken op. Many proprietors had applied for three or four times as many of thus shares as had been allotted to them, but the directors had thought it best to adhere to their own division. Again, many gentlemen who negiected to take up their shares in the first instance had afterwards applied to be al lowed to do so, but the directors had f It it their painful duty to retese to allow them to do so atter the operation of the share market on the shares weld be seen. (Hear, Mar.) lie begged to move that the report now es ad be received, adopted, and printed fur circulation among the proprietors. (Chem.) Mr. PACK E seconded the motion Mr. G. HUTCHISON (of Obegow) rose for the purpose of expressing to the meeting the Mews enter tained by a large number of Scotch shareholders is that railway as to what should be the future m teapment of the beard of direction, is prosecuting the works of the Great Northern Railway. The tharehelders whom he represented unanimously advocated the propriety of making the line from London to York, which would shorten the distance from London to Leeds 221 miles, from London to Wakefield 14 miles, and from L onion to Sheffield 12 miles. Whin it wee borne in mind that these distances were shortened for the populatime of Lend in at on extremity of the line, and for those of Durham and York at the other, and taking into consideration the amount of population that would be accom modated, kunst be admitted that their trunk line would be the best in the kingdom, with the exception of the London and North Western, and hs believed that it could be made for about two thir Is of the =meat expended on that line. (Hear, hear) The directors intimated their intention of abandoning 26 miles of the line, from Askern to Teak, which he and his friends in the north objected to. Thum 26 miles were on a dead level, and be had been in breed by Mr. Cubitt that they could be Nude for 16,0001. a mile. Before he maw Mr. Cabin he was snider the impres sion that line could be made for 14, 1 .901. a mile; because the But Lincolnshire line, the work. on which were of a similar Ratan, had been constructed for that amount par mile, but he would take she expense of the line hem As k ern to York at 16,000 i • mile. Mr. CUBITT said that those figures were exclusive of the NM of land. Mr HUTCHISON continued to soy that he would nip ples It coot 18,0001. a mile ; but let them recollect that their line from London to Peterborough, including stations, Ac., would amount to 48,0001. or 60.0001. a mile, being three times the cost of the Ahearn and York line. (Hear, hear.) New it was clear that if the 76 miles from London to Peter borough, which would cost them 48,0001. a mile, yielded a return of 3 per cent., the Askern and York line, costing only 16,0001., would gin a return of 9 per cent ; and he be lieved theta' made, it would yield that amount of per centsgs. Re= to the subject of the York sad Askern line, he his opinion to be, that if they abandoned that line, they would be abandonieg the most importeat advan tages possessed by them ; and having pointed out the nume rous sources of nabs of which it would become the con duit, he proposed, se ea addition to the motion of the chairman, a resolution the substance of which was, that it should be an instruction to the board of direction, from that meeting, to expedite as meek as possible that motion of the Towns' line Seem Peterborough to Redford, and from Askern to York, and if they were not able to borrow the money authorised by the act of parliament, fur the purpose of completing the works, that the directors should be empowered to apply to pediments for powers to increase the capital of the company to such an extent as might be necessary for the purpose by Missies preferential stack at an interest not exceeding 6 pm cent., or in such other way as may be deemed most condu cive to the interest of the shareholders. That resolution wee approved of by some of the largest holders of stork in the Great Northern Railway Oommk i e sa nd he trusted that if it re "we adopted th eir respected would me that it was tarried into execution. He bad been informed by Mr. Cubitt that the portion of the the to which his reedution referred could be cempleted within twelve months without any difficulty, and he trusted In that time to see the line into York opined. t Hese, hear.) Mr. GLASGOW seconded the imitation as amended by dee tadititm of the clause d by Mr. Hutchinson. Mr. WATERS add the meting at considerable length rsupport of the amended resolution. Hr. GROVES (of York) dirkntad from the two last mistaken nepeetieg the value of the lin:, from Askern to York, and wee of opinion that no one intimately acquainted as he was with the capabilities of the locality, could imagine that the local traffic could Interne important. He concluded by stating his intention of moving, as an amendment, that owe or atom law clerks, at a salary, should be appointed to m anise the legal tr ease:liens of the company. Att. HUGHES should support Ilia resolution for the app ointment of law clerks when it came before the meeting. le quinine were made by certain shareholders whether the works between King's Cross and the Regent's-canal would be prone esel with this year. The result of the delay had been to induce t earties to cover the ground with buildings, in order to force the company to pay them large MOM for ee h iyieeation, and that part of the land which the cothan py paid for and taken possession of had from neglect become a nuisance to the whole at ighbourhood. Part of it had been let for the purp-ee of fielding a fair. The CHAIRMAN then said the suggestion pat forward in the amendment propped was that it be ea instrate lion from that meeting to the directors to expedite as much as pomade the construction of that section of the works celled the Towns line--that was their portion between Peterborough and Ratted, and from Askern to York, eltdi if neensary, to apply to parliament for powers to rain the required capital for the purpose. His answer to that ra h " atatawas that We directors had already given to the share rs the best eamett of their Intention to anticipate this e n oruction by informing them, as they had done in the re p o ,-t, that the plans and the sections for making th e e e .,eviest part of the Towns line we're in the hands of the sen t ree ters, and that tenders t the works, some of which he hoped ;bey might be able to ur wept, wet expected to be THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 13, 1849. THE MUTINY AND M MELIA. URDERB ON BOARD TILE A It will be fliftellabered that 'Me menthn rigs we gays the detail! Of a mutiny and horrible massacre which took place es SW lid of October last year, on Ward the Auras of MOO* sibifti la the Pacific. The vessel woe galas hoe Melee le Chia% with shoat d 0,0004.

The captain (Mr. WNally)was also murdered, being duped by the promise of being Wowed to leave in the ship's boar, and take Mrs. Cooke sad km servant with him. The crew con- Thus ▪ of two E llama 17 foreigners of all nations. a b % . e the three WWI succeeded in coercing, one by one, into sat end having seized and distributed the geld, they neat tree with the wine. Afterwards a Dutch seams seated Saldt conspired with some of the crew to retake the ship, and in the deed of the night the three mutineers were surprised in their sleep and killed, and the vessel was oared ally to Monoliths, one of the Pacific Islands. After the mutineers had been got rid of, the money which had been distributed among the crew was all brought aft, and deposited in the cabin, a meritorious instance of good faith and honesty among so many men of different countries Through the judicious arrangements of Mr. Miller, her Majesty's Consul General for :he Paci6e Islands, residing at Honolulu, specie, amouning to 287,684 dollars, was safely landed, and taken charge of by him; a list was likewise taken of the effects of those who hed been murdered; and, in fact, every thing in the vessel was ufely secured. Among the papers found on board the Amelia were three bills of ladle:, with correspondirg letters of advice and in structions from Jecker, Tome, and Co., of Mazatlan ; one for 150,000 dollars, consigned to Mean. Turner and Co , of Hong Kong, but for account and risk of Messrs. Finley, Hodgson, sad Co., of London ; another for 120,00 u dollars to Messrs. Turner and Co., of Hong Kong, in pay ment for a cargo previously ordered for shipmen.. in the Amelia on her arrival in China. The third bill of lading was for 1,879 dollars, in favour of Mr. J. A. Doreen, of Macao ; 16,304 dollars were landed, for which no bills of lading or other document could be found. We have now the gratiti ' cation t state that Jan Suit, of Rotterdam, whose cmduct on this occasion is above all praise, has hem presented with ' 1,1001. by several of the insurance companies; and also with a valuable sextant, by Ashdown, of Finch-lane, with the fol lowing inscription : "Presented to Mr. Jan Stall, of Rotterdam, by the Cor poration of the Royal Exchange, the Corporation of the Lon don, the ;Indemnity Mutual Marine, the Marine, and the Alliance, Marine Insurance companies of London, in testi mony of their high estimation of Mr. Smit's services, and their especial appreciation of the fidelity and courage dis played by him in rescuing the schooner Amelia, of Glasgow, and her valuable cargo, out of the hands of mutineers, dur ing her voyage from Marsden to China, in the year 1848. London, Aug. 1, 1849." It is to be hoped that some reward will also be given to the two English apprewiecs Garcon and Macdonald, who - . _ .. . - in ' aided Smit not soli Wl' her into port. the recovery of die ship ►at la Work received in • few days. With regard to that perlion of the line between Astern to York, Mr. Ortve appeared to know more of the locality and the tr:dde likely to arise from it than the gentlemen nos the north who had spoken se the subject. Bat they looked upon it as • pert of the tfooWi line Wind of confining their consideration whia kik kale might predate. The Wm bed, howrier, delayed that part of the d line, Warssr mime of an additional 11 miles is the bad Gorki cribs' upon the sherholders for the mosey ter envying on the portion of the works. At the err dr they hod the 'WA, leader agreements they had made, to man over the It ae by Askern to York, and though those illuteruwito wheel not perhaps so favourable es they might kayo bosh U ;aide under different circumstances, he was aot disposed to say that at preset the existing ar- IrgeoSeat .as not better for the eompany than to make toe Use at own between Astern and York. That line, which wadi porker cost 16,9001 oe 17,0001.1 mile, would Orac trolly deem a second as eswirtieg line between Don outer end York, where the real trails was of very small wake; and were it not that it would eventually firm • portion of the main trunk to make it would be to throw away mosey. (Hear, hear.) With re gard to the latter put of the amendment , lo hoped it would not be leafleted upon ; if, however, a proposition woe pressed upon them which he conscientiously believed would be pre judicial to the ultimate interests of the shareholders, he should hesitate sod doubt whether he would content to be their organ for carrying it into effect. Next, as to the statement of the logs sustained by the agreement with the Witham Navigation. The gentleman who had made that ob jecting' wee not aware that, by that warden', the Witham and Fos Dyke proprietors were bound to find all the land neentary for the construction of the line at their own cost —(itter, hear),—which land would cost something like 100.0001. (Hear.) And the interest of that sum, which but Mr that agreement the Great Northern shareholders would have bad topsy, would amount to more per annum, is round numbers, tom they had lost by the navieation. And, besides this, they (the Great Northern) received, as standing in the shoes of the Witham Navigation proprie tors, a land-tax of 2,8001. • year. This, therefore, though he did not mean to say it was a very good bargain, was by no means such a losing affair as the hon. proprietor seemed to imagine. With regard to the paella mastery expenses charged by Mr. Buxton, they were in the *moats all lumped together, which accounted for the largeness of that item. He had obtained an analysis 'bowies that the amount of vendors' end mortgagees' cos% were 18,8001; surveyors' and agents' charges, 6,0001.; ark trade's and expenses of award., 6,0001. ; duty on convey eec,., 5,7001. ; charges of Buxton, Roe, and Hideo, 7,4001., end these, he was told, where the only transactions out of the which solisiseins obtained any profit. These were the *bargee for three years. Mr. HUGHES—But those are the 'bargee for convey melee ally; there an actions and many others not included to that sum. The CHAIRMAN, in future must ask that • larger and taller analysis of all such matters be male in the so :aunts, is seder that he might be spared the diffizult duty of giving tGins, yrs them. (Hear.) asill* HUGH ES recollected that a specific direction had, hem given at the lmt meeting, that such an analysis should be and*. The CHAIRMAN—It was so ; but, for the future, he MEM take care that it should be done. In the meantime the shareholders might see all the details at the elks. In conclusion, he begged to say that he consented to se much of the amendment as be had intimated, the more so that it wee brought forward by gentlemen from the north, who represented • very large number of shares in the com pany, and who, he knew, expressed the views of many other shareholders in their own part of the country, via., that 1 the direct line should be at once proceeded with ; end, for this Teems, he should the more readily bo disposed to adopt steps to carry out the line, even though he did not adopt the whole of the proposed addition. Mr. CHAPMAN recommended Mr. Hutchison to with draw his proposed additional resolution, or to di mend that only so much of it should be put as had been suggested by the chairmsn. Sever. 1 other shareholders advised Mr. Hutchison to divide the amendment, and omit the portion of tt which referred to the raising of 'nether espital ; but theit gentle man refuted; and the amendment having been put and lost by a hurt majority (there being net more than a doz-n hands halt up in its favour), the original motion for the adoption and printing of the report was declared carried. Several other resolutions wen then proposed by Mr. WATIMS, upon a variety of topics arising out of the present syrAsi of management of the line—advocating the app riot ment of a law clerk at a fixed salary—the reduction of the number of trains and stations on the loop line—the abandon ment of certain portions of the line, and the propriety of pro ceeding vigorously with other.—a'king for a !acre detailed statement of the purchase and sale of railway securities by the company—that no director of a competint hoe should be • director on the Great Northern, &c. &c. On the question being mooted that a law clerk with a salary be appointed in place of the present solicitor of the company, Mr. BAXTER claimed permission to say a few words, and proceeded to show that his bills were taxed in the same man. ner as all other bills of professional men by the taxing-officer of the Court of Exchequer, and also that of the 47,0001. set down for law expenses, there was no more than 7,0001. from which he derived 'any profit. He also vindi cated the conduct of the directors in proceeding with the East Lineoloshire line, and cautioned the shareholders sgainst being induced to form an unfavourable opinion of the undertaking before sufficient time bad elapsed for thoroughly testing its imperial'''. All the revolutions above enumerated were either with drawn by their proposen, or negatived. Mr. HUTCHISON moved a vote of thanks to the chair man and tweed of direction, for the care sod attentien with which they had conducted the business of the cempsey, which was carried by acclamation, and the proceedings `erminated. HULL AND SELBY. The half-yearly general of the shareholders ia this company was held oa Saturday at the offices at Hull. Mr. WATSON presided. Mr. Lomixo the secretary, read the report, from which it appeared tha t sum of 29,0141. 13a. 4d. was available for the payment of a dividend, out of which the directors recommended a dividend of 21.9 e. 641. per share on the Al. shares, and li. 4s. 93. on the 2 , 51. shares, being at the rate of Di. 18s. per cent. less income tax. With r, femme to the lease of the line to the York and North Midland Rail ' way, the repent says—. Rumours having been circulated that there are doubts as to the validity of the agreement for the perpetual lease of the Hull sad Selby Railway to the York and North Midland Railway on Lie term, at pre sent existing, the directorsbeg to assure the shareholders that no such doubts are entertained by them or their law advisers nor has any official communication of any such doubts been made to your B mrd of Directors by the Board of the York and North Midland Company. The existing agreement for a perpetual lease is under the seal of both companies, held in due Wm, and confirmed by the Hull and Selby Purchase Act of 1846. The deeds were prepared by eminent counted, sad your directors have again recently submitted them to ormasel, whose opinion has altogether confirmed the confi• dams of your directors in the perfect validity of these instru ment." The report, on the motion of the chairman, was adopted. A resolution declaring a dividend of 21. 9s. 6 I . on the ori ginal shares. and 11. 4s 9d. en the 251. shares, having been serried, a vote of thanks clotted tit* proceedings.

Within the last week a pretty general turn out has taken place amonga the wi lier, at Pedestal, Weinesbury, West Bromwich, and Tip- ton, owing to the masters having given notice of a reduction in wages of 6d. per day for thick coal. A meeting of those whe have struck was held on Thursday at Coek Heath, near Pedestal, at which about 300 were present; thereat it was unanimously resolved that they should not resume work until the masters granted them the same rate of remunera tion as existed before the strike. Taking into account the redaction now made, their Freemen wages would be about 3d., upon which, having in view that they do not jut new get more than two days' work pee week, they declered It was impossible for them to subsist, and the general opinion seamed to be that the masters have made the present reds*. Men without any just cause for doing so. There is a good deal of ill-feeling on the part of the.. who have "struck" against those who have remained at their work, and this have bean vented in so many ways that serious disturb mem have been apprehended. At West Bromwich on Tuesday evening, a collier who had been working in a pi: helonging to the Heatbfleld Company was attacked by a mob of some two or three hundred pereons—them being chi. fly women and children—and stoned all the way home . This crowd threatened further disturbance at the man's Wont, but dis persed on the appearaace of a strong body of police. At Dadlt y and other pl .ces there have bees similar, and even more alarming, outrages. Two men were on Saturday brought before the ramistratn at Handsworth, on a charge of lurking in the neighbourhood of a pit at Tipton, in which were some men who had refused to join the body of men out on strike. Upon being searched, one wu found to be armed with • thick short stick, haring on old baronet att .shed to it; and upon the other a loaded pistol. Various suspicious circumstances havinr come out respecting those men, y were remanded in custody. There is a good deal o f excitement throughout the dkrict, which it is to be hoped will pass over without dis turb ante, but at present the men are very much discon 'mtge. At the collieries of Messrs. Morris, of Morsel,- Leath, some of the men have resumed their work, and UM mugged that others will soon follow their example.

They had been married 18 years ; she had been the parent of 11 children ; all of these children, with the exception of the eldest, died in extreme infancy. The pri soner. with her husband, had resided for many peacoat Bret ton, but about three years since they removed to Westbury. The child 11 chard Smith, whose death the prisoner was I charged with having caused, was born on the 16th of May in the present year. It was full-grown, and was a fine healthy boy. It continued well up to the 7th of June, on which day it became sick, and on the 12th of June it died. Certain suspicions having been need in the minds of the authorities, the body of the child was disinterred. The in testines were titen submitted to the investigation of two medical men, who having found arsenic, the intestines were taken to Mr. Herspath, the eminent chemist of Bristol, and he found solid arsenic in the at nisch ; and, from the appearance of the stomach, the medical men were clearly of opinion that the death had been caused by arsenic; and, as the child was not more than there weeks old, it was evident that the poison must have been administered to it by some one, and it must hsve been given at different times. The important question then arose, by whom was the arsenic administered ? Before her confine ment, the prisoner had asked at different hone a for poison, which she stated she wanted to destroy mice. Persons who lived in the prisoner's house stated that they had seen or heard of rats or mice thee e, nor had they heard the pri soner complain of them. On the 25th of May the prisoner sent for a girl of the name of Caroline Mackey, and wanted her to go to Mr. Taylor's, the chemist, and buy a penny. worth of poison for her; the girl's mother, however, wou d not suffer her to do so, and the girl did not go. On the 7th of June the prisoner saw a woman of the name of Prudence Mead, and, after some conversation, the prisoner said she wanted to buy a pennyworth of polo in, but, as she could not obtain it without a witness, she begged Prudence Mead to accompany her to Mr. Taylor's shop, as she said she had so many mice that she could not put anything out of her hands fcr them. Prudence Mead accompanied her to Mr. Taylor's, and there the prisoner asked the apprentice for a pennyworth of poison. The apprentice asked her what kind t She said she did not know. He took down a bottle of white arsenic, and told her what it was. She said that was the kind she wanted. He said it was a very dargerous thing. He put her one drachm on a piece of paper. He then folded up the arsenic in a white paper and wrote upon it "Arsenic—poison" in large letters. He then wrapped it in a blue paper and tied it up and gave it to her, and told her she must be very careful of it, and be particular to keep it out of the way of children. The prisoner said he need not be afraid, as she was not going to use it herself; it was for her sister at Bretton, who was infested with rats and mica. The sister, however, stated that she had not asked the pri. loner to get any poison for her, though she had rats and mice in the house. The poison having been thus obtained on the 7th of June, the prisoner returned home. Tbe child had had some boils on its ears, but had been otherwise well ; but on the evening of the 7th of June it was seized with vomiting, and was in con siderable pain. The child pined and on the morning of the 12th of June died. Then some statements made by the prisoner were brought forward. After she was taken into custody a woman of the name of Ann Staples had the care of her. She (the prisoner) told her that the girl Mackey had told a great many lies about her. She had never aske d her to go for poison more than once, although the girl had said she had asked her to gi three times. The prisoner then told Staples that she bad bought the poison but had thrown it over the hedge going home, that she had bought it for her sister at Bretton, to kill rats and mice, but she had thrown it away because her child was ill, and she thought her neighbours might say she had given it to the child. Staples said that if she could tell where she had thrown it, perhaps the police would go and find it. The prisoner answered that they could not find it. because she bad thrown it into the water at the back of the chapel. She said it was tied up in two papers of white and blue, and the inside paper had " poison " writtea on it. Before the child war take ill, on the 7th of June, the prisoner asked several persons if they did not think the child was " wasting," but they said they thought it was perfectly healthy. The pri soner said it was very cross at night. During the illness of the child the prisoner was advised to have medical aid, but she said it was of no use to so young a child. The prisoner was in a wooly state, and had very little nourishment, being extremely poor and badly off. Mr. Hadlow, for the prisoner, addressed the jury, and urged upon them the improbability of a woman speaking to so many persons shout poi-on who bad the intention to murder her own offspring--a circumstance of it'elf so unna tural that it could not be believed unless proved by the most Blear and cogent evidence. He also urged upon them the absence of motive. Mr. Justice Creeswell summed up the case. The jury retired for half an hour, and on their return, the foreman s.i I, " It is our painful duty to pronounce the priso ner Guilty, but we strongly recommend her to mercy. Mr. Justice Cresswell—On what ground, gentlemen ? Foreman.—That she may have time to repeat. Mr. Justice Croswell, having put on the black cap, pro ceeded to peas sentence on the prisoner :—Behecca Smith, lan intelligent, patient, and anxious jury have found it their duty to return a verdict of guilty against you upon a charge I of the most awful kind one subject can commit against another. Murder must, under all circumst.nces, be a dreadful crime, but I want words to express the horror of it when perpetrated by a mother spinet her own offspring. There may be unhappy instances in which the feelings of a mother are stifled by an overwhelming sense of shame which may induce her to put away her child in the desire that its existence may never be known. We have had dreadful instances in which avarice and the desire of gain have led to the lame fatal result. But it is new to me to have to inquire into a case in which a mother had been proved by evidence, most conclusive to my mind, to have sacrificed her own child for no traceable motive, but that of saving herself the trouble and the charge of main taining it. It is, indeed, an awful crime—one which may well call for repentance, which the jury have laid as a foundation for • recommendation to mercy. That recommendation will, of course, be forwarded to the proper quarter ; but 1 cannot hold out to you the smallest hope that it will be at tended to. The law allows a certain time for repentance sad preparation teethes more dreadful trial which takes place hereafter than you have undergone before an earthly tribu nal. I should only mislead you and turn away your thoughts from repentance if I held out to you the slightest hope that your sentence will not be carried into effect. It is my duty ti impress upon you the certainty that the last penalty of the law will be inflicted,—that within a short time your career will close, and then you will have to account for all the deeds you have done here, and I impress upon youths necessity of attending to the admonition and instruction of the chaplain of the gaol, to whose care you will be hereafter ommitted. I entreat you to indulge so false hopes. Do not imagine you can escape the consequences of the deed you have done, for it is necessary, fa the security of the public, to award that the extreme punishment should be inflicted when as dread a crime is distinctly and satisfactorily proved. Remember, that in a few days your life must go, and then you will cemeteries an existence, t or good or for evil, to en ders fur ever. To the instruction of the chaplain then, I re commend you. His lordship then passed sentence upon the prisoner, who throughout e vi nced not the slightest feeliag. The court was crowded almost to suffocation. There were many ladies of the county in court. During the proceedings, at one answer given by a witness', there was a general laugh, upon which his lordship re marked, that the barbarous curiosity evinced upon this occa sion was suffioiently disgusting without such grossly impro per conduct being exhibited. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL .—T OXFORD Auotler 11na Rev. Ma. ALLIES.—Mr. Allies has OXFORD, a letter to the editor of the Tablet (Roman Catholic paper), intimating that, notwithstanding hie Pledge to the bishop of this diecese, to abstain from publish ing a second edition of his notorious work, and to make the articles of the established church the rule of his teaching, he does not withdraw the opinions he has expressed. In sia•a of rubrics, he assures the Runtish editor that he design' to persevere in the adoration of the Sacrament, aa practised in thellomish church, whenever he is present at the cele bration of the Lord's Supper, at Launton, or elsewhere; and that he holds that Christ is truly, really, personally, and substantially patent, under the appearance of bread and wine after caeeeeration ! Meanwhile Father L cuona, an eminent Riman catholic priest, has come Urward with a declaration that the doctrine cad practice of the rector of Launton is in exact harmony with the teaching of the catholic church. A contemporary adds (we do not know on what authority) that Mr. Allies has since left for Italy! From the late decision of Sir H. J. Fust, on the Bap :Lama' question, and the connivance of such men as Mr. Allies, it se evid.nt that a exists is fast approaching, which must ifeHH, either in tire reform of the offices of the church, or in the separatioa from the Anglican church of all the clergy who really hold prAestant and scriptural doctrine.—Oxford Chronicle.

After dining teetcher they engaged a sleeping room be tween them at Mrs. Drummonit's, a private house, in Upper Kirkgate. Before proceeding to this place they went late in the evening into a tavern, and had two bottles of Sooteh ale, and, while drinking it, prosecutor made a remark to the prisoner that the liquor tasted as though it had lauda num iu it. They then proceeded to their lodgings, between ten and eleven o'clock, and being in a strange place, pro seeutor, not content with the ordinary fastenings of the door, placed a chair between it and the foot of the bedstead, so that no person could enter without the chair wasremoved by some person inside.
