4 8 EARL RUSSELL AT TAVISTOCK. Raid Russell delivered an inaugural address at i the fifth annual meeting of the Devon Association for the advancement of Literature, Science, and Art, held this year at %mistook. The meeting wee held on Wednesday evening, in the Guildhall, where a brilliant assembly wel comed the noble lord, who was introduced by Professor Daitheny. The noble earl's adhere was, as might be supposed, of a very comprehensive character, embracing a great variety of topics, including photograp hy telegraphy, an historical renew of poetry, Re. Speak i ng of the tendency of the present pohtical and religious institutions of Europe, he dealt 'nth the question whether, as Corinth, Carthage, and Rome herself perished, there was not reason to appre hend that the chief nation of Europe might • also fall into decay. On this subject he said — I I can see no reason to apprehend such a revolution—no retain to fear that the New Zealander will ever behold the ruins of St. Paul's. Among the changes which the last three centuries have seen there are scarcely any, it appears to me, which do not tend to improvement and to stability. The revival of letters at the end of the fifteenth century revealed to Italy, to France, England, and Germany, the great poets and historians of Greece and Rome. The spirit of inquiry promoted by Copernicus, by Galileo, and the Reformation, led to an increased intercourse between nations, which has contri buted to promote feelings of brotherhood, while it has in no way enervated the men of this t rad ing genera tion. Valour in war and fortitude in bearing hardships have shone no less in the wars of Europe and America between 1850 and 1866 than in the old days of the Crusades. Nor hes the enjoyment of the comforts and luxuries of life tended, in my opinion, to weaken the manly virtues, to enfeeble patriotism, or to prevent self sacrifice. Governments have become exceedi ngl y suscep tible to the flow and ebb of public opinion without becoming degenerate or timid. While such is the case, what us the changes which we may apprehend ? Not certainly such an eruption of the barbarians as that which overthrew the Roman empire. The constant tendency of the relations which have been introduced by conquest or by commerce between civilised and savage nations for the last three centuries has been, on the contrary, to lead to the servitude or the extir pa tion of the savage nations and the supremacy of the civilised communities. Even the noble savage of North America and New Zealand seems destined to extinction, and ethernet.s imperfectlycivilised,tithough to a certain extent used to our European manure, appear doomed to decay and periab. The best hopes for the eine of civilised communities in Europe must permanence of eivillsed communities in Europe must ded, however, upon the maintenance of their inde pendence and the progress of their liberty. A single sovereign governing the greater part of Europe and controlling the rest would very soon establish a des potism quite incapable of maintaining for any long period the independence of the nations over which he ruled. Amu, Nis, religion, and morals, science, and literature, would all decay beneath its blighting influence. The history of the decline and fall of the Roman empire would be renewed under the pernicious domination of an absolute master. The liberties of Europe, however, do net seem exposed to such danger. Her present state may bat rather described as one of trial and transition, tending to something better, but by no means assured in respect to the farm which her various states may ultimately adopt. Machiavelli deseiribes the Republic of Florence of modern times as fluctuating, not between servitude and liberty, but between servitude and license. These lar constitutions of the middle ages were nearly 1 171 51 stroyed in the sixteenth century—that of Spain by Cardi n*. Mamas, that of Florence by Charles V., that of France, after receiving many ruder shocks from Charles VU!., exceed to exist in the reign of Francis I. England aluiost alone preserved her ancient liberties, and at the revolution of 1680 established and asserted all the funda mental principles of civil, political, and religious freedom. Pianos a oenturylaterprochimedthose liberties which have three been known as the principles of 1789. Of some of the States on the continent it may be said net totem hbereatern, nee totals areitutent pati punier They cannot, however, he said to be falling into servitude • they are more truly described as reeking thou securiti esfor freedom which many nations have sought in vain. Few, indeed, can yet be said to have Nettled clown on any fixed form of free in stitutions. Oar own constitution, perfect as we deem it, is too complicated, and requires too much patience and forhearanee for successful imitation. Italy is endeavour ing nobly to place her liberties on a firm basis ; Germany is only beginning her revolution, and her com munities, replete as they are with men of vast learning and of profound views, are &bent, like Icarus. to try their wings, in danger at once from the scorching sun of military despotism above them, and the deep sea of metaphysical speculation underneath. In the closing part of his address the noble earl entered at length into the question of religious freedom, and of the prospect of its general realisation, and concluded as follows :—The consequence of ge neral religious liberty in Europe has been to mitigate animosity, to promote charity between the members of different sects, to strengthen the authority and the freedom of private judgment. In the United States religions freedom is according to all testimony universal. Willie such has been the progress and such has been the prospect of religions liberty it would be in vain to expect that the unity which bas sot bean effected by pomace tioa should be attained by persuasion. No one can hope to see the church of Rome, the church of Eng land, Lutherans, Calvanists, presbyterians, baptists, con cregationalista, and unitarians concur in one form of religious faith. Bat, although unity of creed cad unity of church government is unattainable, unity of spirit may be reached. I will explain my meaning further. Soon after the promulgation of the Christian religion man began to argue on questions involving most mysterious doctrines of dogmatic theolomy. To daring and subtle minds it appeared tame and inglorious to rest contented with the simple precepts for the conduct of life contained in the gospel. The less obvious the meaning of scripture the greater the glory of the human commentator who deduced logical propositions from that which was hard to be understood. So likewise at the Reformation— Luther and Calvin, Zuingliu, and John Knox, built up their systems and organised their ecclesiastical discipline. These speculations, while they hare tended to form churches or religions communities, firm in their adherence to their own standard, have not produced unity of faith, nor does such a result appear more probable now than it did three centuries ago, If, however, all these churches and religions communities, keeping their own creeds and systems of faith, would insist upon than lessons of love, of mercy, and of forgiveness which are contained in the gospel, the unity of spirit might be obtained ; then the divine words, " If you love me keep my commandments," l i would receive universal application ; then, indeed, we might hope to see the vices of our groat cities, the ignor ance, the superstition of our villages and rural districts, the crimes of omission of both rebuked by the spirit of Christianity. At present we hope we are somewhat better than the generation we have succeeded. We might then expect that our sons would be better than we are. Then, ind.eed, we should understand the full meaning and intent of that Ira of the angels which heralded the birth of Christ "Glary to God in the highest, and on earth =and goodwill towards man." The noble earl was ently applauded in the course of the address. Mr. JACKSON, M.P., AND HIS CONSTITUENTS. — On Monday evening Mr. W. Jackson, one of the members for North Derbyshire, addressed a numerous body of the electors and inhabitants in the large room of the Bull's Head Inn, Buxton. After several questions on general matters had been put and satisfactorily answered, three chews were given for Mr. Jackson ; and after a vote of thanks to the chairman the proceedings terminated. MAJOR ANSON, M.P., ON THE LIBERAL CAUSI.- On Wednesday Lord Alfred Paget gave a fate to his poli tical supporters at Swinfen-park. With the toast of " The Liberal Cause " was emaciated the name of Major Anson, M.P. In response the gallant and hon. gentleman said of the late Reform Bill, he objected to the manner in which they brought the bill forward, the hurry in which it was introduced ; escondly, he disarproved of the bill itself. It was very complicated, and hardly bad a good *lame in it. ("Oh, oh," and loud laughter.) The next objection he had was to the manner in which they pressed the bill upon the country, and he thought they deserved great blame for that amongst all moderate men ; and the' manner they pressed it forward was bearing its fruit in the present day. They misrepresented things said in the heat of debate by members of what were called the Adullamites, and, amongst others, by Mr. Lowe. (" Hear, hear " and laughter.) There never was a grosser case or anything more unfair than the mannerin wUch ithat he (Mr. Lowe said about the work ing classes wee brought before the country by Mr. Glad stone aid lie. Bright. (Applause.) Mr. Lowe made use of expremiees that were twisted into what they called slanders of the working classes of this country. (Hear, bear.) Lord Rich° was brought into the same boat, and be knew both well and intimately, and there never were two men lees desirous of insulting the working classes. Mr. Lowe was pointing to a fact which no man could deny,thel there was amongst the lower clams • great deal of venality end drunkenness. (" In all classes.") He challenge any one to deny it. What had been said by the present guide, philosopher , and friend of the working classes—Mr. John Stuart Mill? Why, be summed them, up in a few words thus " The upper classes do not lie ; but the lower classes are habitual liars." (" Don't believe it." Loud laughter.) Those mesa. here who steadily voted against the government did to with the www•entions belief that the bill was a bad ewe, and not beanie they were renegades from theliberal mass. They (the Aden/mutes) should not forges the manner in which they were misinterpreted when they were toldthey were eviler one thing and meant another. (Right.) Nor should they forget the manner in which they were misre presented in what fell from speakers of their party in the heal of debate. Nor should they forget the gentlemanly language of Mr. Bright, who said they were " a set of dirty emesplrators." (Quite true.) He believed the Adel- Wades were all good and tree liberals. At all events he had always been • moderate liberal ; he was one when elected, and be had nos changed his opinions since they elected him. (" You voted against everything." Loud laughter.) THE IRISH NATIONAL LEAGUE. The National League met in Dublin on Tuesday, for the first time for several months. The chairman was a Mr. J. Martin. He explained why their meetings were suspended, and the remainder of the amusing proceedings are thus narrated by the Freeman :—I have been told on unexceptionable authority that on more than one occasion the leader of the rowdy disturbers—(interruption),—that the leader of these disturbances, which were unworthy of any patriotic Irishman, was Mr. Nagle, Fenian andgovern merit spy. (Hisao.) You may hiss Nagle as long as you like, but what I want to impress on my countrymen is this-be they Fenians or not Fenians, they ought always to behave in a spirit of fair play. (Hear, bear.) Through my little course of politics—it has not been a very suc cessful course, and it has not been a prominent one—l think you will oonsider I am entitled to say I have never yet endeavoured to bully anyone—(hear, hear),—but I have never permitted anybody or any number of men to bully me —(hear),—and I never will. (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) I understand, and I suppose, orders have been given by some of those who direct the Fenians in Ireland by any means, by rowdyism, to prevent John Martin and those who think with him speaking their sentiments out before the country. A Voice—Don't attack the Fenian& without cause. (Cheers.) The CHMENAN—Attack the Fenians ! I request that the gentleman, if he has anything to say that bears on the , question which the Irish National League considers their business as well as the business of the lapis's—l request that gentleman, if he has anything to say about the poli tical condition of Ireland, and the right way to remedy it —if be has anything to may above board—if he has any thing to say without running the risk of walking to gaol— (cries of "Ah !" and laughter)—l request him to come out, and in his own name to speak his sentiments. If he does not do that—(interruptions)--- A Voice—Keep the chair. Another Voice—Proceed. (Laughter.) The CHAIEMAS—I see already that there are so many persons disposed to interrupt the proper course of the meeting, that unless they be well kepi in hand by their leaders here present the meeting will be broken up by tumult. I warn you I will not submit to be bullied. (Hear, and applause.) Now, having said so much, I will resume the course of my observations. I have stated that the monthly meetings were interrupted owing to the aspen- Ilion of the Habeas Corpus Act, and to the fact that certain Persons, • gto be Fenian', came there and attempted to prevent the proceedings by uproar. I will add another one, that, although I myself have always been treated with more respect and consideration than I consider myself entitled to as • politician, yet the country does not seem disposed to join with me and with other gentle men to assist in the League. For these three reasons if you like, the course of our monthly meetings has bean interrupted. I must now make • few remarks upon the state of Irish politics, as well as upon the reasons that induced us to form ourselves into a political associatim. The condition of the country continues to be very dis heartening. Emigration continues to go on, exhausting the strength of the country. The number of emigrants every year considerably exceeds the natural increase by birth', and therefore the population of Ireland is steadily and rapidly decreasing, and the character of the emigration is such as to debilitate the country very seriously, be cause the bulk of the emigrants is the young and ener getic. The MUMS of the emigration continue as before. The cases Mn be very shortly summed up in this way. The connection that has been formed between this country —that is, as I understand it, the subjection of this country to Engl and—has caused the rents and the revenues and the income of this country to be plundered and spent in England, or for English p That continual plunder of the income of Ireland makes the country poor and keeps it poor. That state of things, together with the unfortun ate relations of antipathy between the proprietors of the land and the cultivators, suss the emigration. So far as to the material condition of the country. It is not more disheartening than the constitutional condition, for we have actually no national rights and no constitutional liberty at present. A Voice—We'll fight for them. (Great applause.) The Caanutax—The liberty of every man in Ireland is enjoyed by merely the sluice of the police in Ireland, or those who order them. _ _ . A VOICE-Yon mean the G division. (Laughter.) The CHAIRMAN -Such being the state of the country as to its material and constitutional condition, what course is taken by thole who are or think themselves patriots? [Here a man rose and went out of the room, saying, Upon my soul, I'm tired of this."J While the material and constitutional condition of the country is so dis heartening, the political condition seems also disheartening. (Great confusion, owing to some other remark of the person who went out.) The CHAIRMAN-I perceive that a considerable number of the persons in this room are neither members of the League, nor disposed to behave themselves with propriety. A VOICE-They are Fenian. (Loud laughter.) The CHAIRMEN-I therefore will not continue the course of my remarks upon politic. Colonel FRENCH (in an undertone)-Quite right. (Loud laughter.) The CILURDIAN-Quits right ! Colonel Far-xcir -I must get up and state you are quite right in discontinuing them, because you are so frequently interrupted. (Applause.) The Crwrimart - I shall not continue the speech I in tended to make. _ . A Voice—Then give us a charity sermon. (Much laughter and hisses.) The CHAIRMAN—Are there any other remarks of that kind to be made (Laughter.) I shall not continue my speech, but before I sit down and dissolve this meeting I shall say one or two words principally to the per sons of Fenian sympathies who may be here. (Applause.) I request those persons to listen to them in silence. Ido not expect them to respect me, but I ask them to respect themselves. Ido not seek their approval, but I ask them to seek the approval of their own consciences. (Uproar.) I understand pretty well their reasons for acting as they do. I understand that the secret authorities whom they blindly obey—(vigorous hisses)—l say the secret authori ties whom they blindly obey— A Voice—Faithfully. (Great cheering.) The Cliciamen—They have given orders to prevent the expression of any political opinion in Ireland so far as rowdyism can prevent—at least any political opinion other than that advocated by the secret leaders of the people. (Applause.) I understand that, and that the men who are interrupting me and endeavouring to break up the League are blindly obeying the orders of secret leaders. - . _ *parting intenignue. BRIGHTON RACEfI.7THoaai?Ay. The last day of the Brighton reunion was by tar the mod enjoyable of the three, for the weather, though threatening at times, kept wonderfully floe. The strong wind, however, proved troublesome to some of the tent-keepers, who had enough to do to keep their establishments together. The attendance was, as on the previous days, large, kind the stand was extensively patmuised, especially by the Wien, who to-day assembled in strung force. The improvised stands had also their share of patrons, while the carr iag es which lined the course opposite the cloeure were well fWed. The racing was under the auspices of the Brighton Club. The fields were uniformly small, and the various events call for no special comment, every feature being presented in the appended returns. Considerable betting took place on the St. Leger and the Lewes Handicap at the quotations given bslow : — THE 8100 ND YEAR 07 THE SEVENTH BRIGHTON CLOD BIEN NIAL STAKES of 10 sore. each, with 50 added; for 3-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 1011); fillies, Bst 71b; winners extra.

The CHAIIIIIA2I—But I will say this, that Ido not be lieve any scheme will succeed in the end which endeavours to prevail by rowdyism, and by conduct unbecoming the character of any good Irishman, or any man whatsoever. (Hisses.) I now dissolve the meeting. Mr. Martin then left the chair, and spoke to some of the persons in the middle of the room with much earnest ness. The noise was so great that his words could not be heard, and the greatest confusion prevailed. The wits of the assemblage " chaffed" him in a good-humoured man ner, and as he was proceeding to the door an egg was thrown at him, which broke directly over his head. Eggs were thrown at several other members of the League with better success, and as the people were leaving the room the person who had charge of these nasty missiles shouted, " Give one to the reporters, boys t " and acted on his own advice at once, to the great detriment of the clothes of two of the fraternity who were watching the proceedings from en elevated position. Thus the meeting ended. Count Y. de Lagrange's Orne The following also ran :—Redan, Ricorte, Merry Hart, and Kingmaker. Betting: —7 to on Ostreger, 8 tot eget Roden, and 100 to 8 wet any other. Water Lure made play followed by One. Ostreger, and Murry Hart for nearly half a mile, when Olinger too'. up the running, and won in a canter by three lengths. A similar distance separated the second and third. Redan was fourth, and the others niggling in straggling order were placed by the Judge.

This evening a monster reform meeting will take place in the Free Trade Hall, Manchester, at which Mr. P.dmond Beale., President of the Reform League ; Colonel Dickson, Messrs. Lnereft and Cremer, and Mr. Howell, Secretary to the League, will be present on behalf of that body, and deliver addresses. Tomorrow (Saturday), • reform demonstration will be held at Blackburn, at which the same members of the league will attend. On Monday, the Bradford reformers meet to express their opinions on the question ; on Tuesday, Swindon and Bath ; and gather ings will take p lace on Wednesday and Thursday in Maidenhead and Peterborough respectively. A greatopen air demonstration in Liverpool is spoken of as likely to some off in that town the last week of the present month, which it is probable Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright will be invited to attend. lit:Flame OF THE Liam or Varna& —The law was altered last year with respect to the revision of the lists of voters. The Ist September is the last day for the delivery by the overseers to the clerk of the peace, instead of the 29th August, of the list of claimante and notices of objections. The lista of claimant. now on the church doors will be removed on Monday next, and on or before the let September the notices of objections are to be pub- lished in a similar manner for fourteen days before the forthcoming revision. harßaMTßultriTs ria COAL SHIPMENT AT BIBLIM HIALL—It was announced at the meeting of the Mersey Dock Board yesterday that a tender had been accepted for the loading and unloading of coal at the Birkenhead docks, by which it is anticipated a very large sa - will be made to coal merchant* and shipowners.

The Rodne7, 78, 500-horse power, belonging to the third division of the steam reserve, is now in the hands of the shipwrights of Sheerness Dockyard, and they are bringing her forward for commission. She is intended to relieve the present flag-ship of the China squadron. A number of the joiners employed at this dockyard have been discharged from the establishment by order of the Admiralty. THE CHOLERA. Subscriptions continue to flow into the Mansion house, and to the banks in connexion with it, towards the fund now being raised there for the relief of the prevailing distress consequent upon the viaitation of cholera at the rate of nearly I,oooi. a-day. Up to last evening t he total amount received was roughly estimated at something up wards of 4,000/., though the subscription had only been going on four days, and the committee look forward to the receipt of a large cum for the humane object they have in view. The Lord Mayor has kindly placed one of the largest moms in his house at their deposal, and they meet there daily to hear and consider applications from local bodies. Yesterday the Lord Mayor, Mr. Thomas Baring, M.P., Mr. Joseph Hoare, banker, Sir Mordaunt Wells, Rev. Wm. Rogers, rector of Bishopsgate, Rev. Frederick G. Blomield, rector of St. Andrew, Undershaft, Mr. R. N. Fowler, banker, Mr. W. J. It. Cot ton, Mr. W. J. Maxwell, Mr. IL B. Wade, Mr. Andrew Johnston, Dr. Andrew Clarke, Mr. Charles Hutton, and other gentlemen were engaged for about two hours in this self-imposed duty. The committee are desirous that it should be widely known that they have this fund at their disposal, and are prepared to dispense it in the districts where it is wanted. They contemplate the relief in parti cular, as far as practicable, of poor children who have lost one or both of their parents by the disease. The admissions to the London Hospital for cholera in the 24 hours ending yesterday forenoon were 10, and for diarrhas 9, being only one more than bad been brought to the institution during the previous 24 hours. The deaths during the same period have been seven (six from cholera and one from diarrhoea), while the recoveries have been nine, six being from the more severe form of the epidemic. There'remain in the wards 113 persona. An unusually rapid ease of cholera occurred yesterday in the workhouse of St. George's-in-the - Fast. One of the washerwomen of the establishment, a person of robust health, was seised with the disease at five in the morning, and she was dead at eleven o'clock in the forenoon. No previous symp toms existed. The epidemic continues with con siderable violence in this parish, and several new cases were reported yesterday. The local board of health have had to purchase a hearse capable of carrying twelve bodies to the cemetery at once. Dr. Trench reported to the Liverpool Health Committee yesterday, that the cholera last week caused 101 deaths in the town, being an increase of 14 over the previous week. During the same week in 1849, the deaths from cholera were 368. The total deaths in Liverpool last week were 492, being an increase of 179 over the corrected average of the previous ten years. The Superb, 80, and the Nankin, 50, two of the vessels attached to the sailing reserve in the Medway, have been taken in hand, by order of the Admiralty, and are now being fitted up as hospital ships for the reception of cholera patients from the vessels in the Thames and Med way. The Superb will be stationed in the vicinity of Gravesend, and the Nankin in Chatham harbour. At Fraserburgh, in the Highlands, on Saturday, a healthy fisherman was seised with cholera, and died within eight hours. RECENT CHANGES IN THE LEGISLATURE. Throughout the session which terminates to-day many circumstances have combined to produce a greater number of changes than tonal. The fact that two new prime ministers have come into power has been visible in the additions which have been made to the ranks of the upper house, while in the lower the operations of the election oommittees have been equally conspicuous. The following is a summary of the changes which have taken place in the upper branch of the legislature : LORDS. Nineteen peers have died. They are the Marquises Camden, 67 ; Lansdowne, 50 ; Earls Gainsborough, 84 ; Kinnotd, 81; Bathurst, 76 ; Luieshorough, 71; Roselyn, 64 ; Chesterfield, 61 ; Limerick, 53 ; Donoughmore, 43 ; Beauchamp, 37 ; Harrington, 21 ; Viscount Clifden, 41 ; Barons Glenelg, 83 ; Monteegle, 76 ; Clinton, 74 ; Bsyn ing. 69; Vernon, 62 ; Rivers, 56. Two peerages have become extinct, the baronies of Bayning and Glenelg ; while the successors to the titles of Montesgie, Clifden, Donoughmore, and Rivers are minors. The num ber of new peers who sit by 111100014011 is, therefore, 13. In addition to these it may be mentioned that the Duke of Hamilton has attained his majority, and that the Mar quis of Ormonde, who became of age on the sth of October last, has taken the oaths and his seat. Fourteen peers have been crested, viz., his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh, Viscount Halifax, Barons Barrogill, Clermont, Hartismore, Hylton, Kenry, Lytton, Meredyth, Monck, Northbrook, Penrhyn, Stratlmairn, and Roinilly. Two barons of the United Kingdom, Lord Dartrey and Lord Wodehouse, have been promoted to a higher order in the peerage. The former now site as Earl of Diu-trey and the latter as Earl of Kimberley. THE LANDS IMPROVEMENT COMPANY. The twenty-fifth half-yearly meeting of the Lends Improvement Company was held yesterday after.' noon at the offices in Parliament-street ; Mr. Sousaarr, Q.C., one of the directors, in the chair. The report stated that the net profit for the half-year had amounted to 3,0061., out of which the directors recom mended the payment of a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, and the transfer of the sum of 1,081. 3e. Bd. to the Land Securities Company (Limited), in accordance with an arrangement entered into with that company in February last. The directors announced the resignations of Lord Naas, chairman of the company (upon his acces sion to o ffi ce) , and Mr. Napier, the managing director, to both of whom the company were under deep obligations. The duties of managing director would in future be per formed by Mr. Granville Ryder, who filled a similar office in connection with the Land Se curities Company. Resolutions were adopted approving of the report and declaring a dividend as recommended by the directors; and the proceedings closed with votes of thanks to Mr. Napier for the efficient services which he had rendered to the company, and to Mr. Somerset for his conduct in the chair that day. NORTH EASTERN RAILWAY. The twenty-fifth half-yearly general meeting of the shareholders of the North Eastern Railway Company was held on Wednesday, in the De Grey Rooms, York ; Mr. H. R. THOMPSON. chairman, presiding. The Chair man, in moving the adoption of the report, already pub lished, said that the fact which stood most prominently out in the directors' report was that their receipt' had increased by 137,4321., but that the working e had increased to the extent of 87,7781., leaving, therefore, a net increase of 49,6541., and out of that amount they had not been able to recommend them to declare any addi tional dividend beyond that of the preceding ha lf-year. With the exception of only two items the expenditure had increased during the half-year. Those two items were the shipping expenses and the general charges. Mr. George Leeman, M.P., seconded the adoption of the re. port, which was carried unanimously. After remarl 'from several speakers the dividends already announced were duly declared. TRAFFIC RETURNS.

Bing, of Portsmouth, master of the Forest Queen, a sailing barge, said that on Tuesday morning . his barge was sailing up the Thames, and as it was passing the Surrey Canal Dock entrance a steamer at tempted to go between the barge and • barque moored off the canal entrance on the south side of the river. The steamer hailed the barge, and asked the crew to " tack about," in order that she might get between the barque and the barge. When the barge was getting out of the way the steamer was set in motion, and the bask water of the paddles struck the starboard side of the barge's rudder, turning the tiller violently round. The deceased, Warner, was at the tiller at the time, and he was struck by it, and " knocked down on the deck as dead as • bullock." The jury returned a verdict of ".docidental death."

On making their way up the Solent channel, when just below E House, the Pantomime made a lung reach to the south - ward, and after her the Arrow made a long tack and took the second place. Some fine manoeuvring then went on and the Arrow and Lulworth hada desperate struggle for the first place. The inaomitable and almost unconquerable Arrow then took the lead, and the Lufra, hitherto holding a good wind, off Lymington Creek weathered the Pantomime, and soon afterwards the whole fleet were hull down, making their way down the Needles Passage, and any further notice of them could not be obtained ; the details of the race at the back of the island must necessarily be deferred. About half-pest four o'clock this afternoon there warn a cry raised that the yachts were in sight, and this report turned out to be true, for far distant to the east ward was seen Lord Ponsonb7's Lufra, a new vessel, and hitherto untried in racing, while to the leeward was ob served, beating against the flood tide, the " Old Arrow," and run further to the leeward Mr. Mulholland's Egeria, bat as the two first vessels may be called upon to allow a considerable amount of time to some of the others, the re sult of the race must be deferred until to-morrow.

MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Lums, Auausir a (Before Mr. Judie* Smith.) CHILD NUIDZ AT William' John Turner, 28, formerly a busk manufacturer in Sheffield, was indicted for the murder of his child, Maria Jane Turner, three months old, at Sheffield, on the 14th of June. On the evening of the day named in the indictment the prisoner bad a quarrel with his wife, and on the return of a daughter of his wife's by a former marriage, she found her mother in the yard and the pri mmer in the house. On going up !taint for the baby she found to her horror that it was lying in bed in a pool of blood, with its throat cut, and quite dead. The murderer left the house almost immediately, and proceeded in a cab to the police-adios, where he Nava himself up, announcing that he had killed his child by cutting its throat. On being searched a razor with blood was found in his trousers pocket, and in reply to the charge of murder he again confessed the crime, and said that he could not say how be bad done it. The crime was not denied, but it was urged by the learned counsel for the prisoner that the deed had been done while he was in a state of insanity, the prisoner being liable to attacks of this disease, is consequence of injury received from sun stroke several years ago when a soldier in India. After half an hour's absence, the jury returned a verdict of Guilty, accompanied by a recommendation to mercy. Sentence of death was then paned. CHARGE OP MURDERING ♦ WOMAN. Joseph Fie&bend, a table blade striker, was charged with having caused the death of Mary Ann lisiiirk,a woman who had lived with him as his wife. It was stated that the pri soner and deceased resided in a one-room tenement in Har vest-lane, She Meld. On the night of the 30th of March they had • violent quarrel, and the prisoner was heard to say that he would murder deceased - before the night was out. About midnight Smith was observed to rush out of the apartment into the yard almost in a state of nudity, the only clothing she had on being in flames. Prisoner also entered the yard without his coat, bat he made no effort to rescue the burning woman. On the contrary, when he was remonstrated with by a neighbour for his inhuman conduct, he coarsely and brutally replied, " Let her burn ; it serves her right." The poor woman was removed to the infirmary, where she only survived a few hours. When fully conscious that her end was approach ing, her deposition was taken before one of the borough magistrates ; and from this it appeared that deceased, after a quarrel, went to rest on three chairs near to the fire, leaving the prisoner in a bed in the corner, witbin arm's length. She kept her dress on, and the quarrelling continued. The deceased on her deathbed said she then felt the prisoner pulling at her dress, and immediately afterwards she law her dress on fire. We learn by telegraph that the jury returned a verdict of Ilot Guilty. WESTERN. CIRCIIIT.—BRISTOL, ArousT 9. Yesterday Mr. Stock, Q.C., arrived in this city for the purpose of opening the commission for the summer assize but owing to some neglect the box containing the important document had been mislaid on the railway and was not forthcoming. It was afterwards, we believe, traced to Chippenbam, and being ultimately found, it was intended to proceed to the Guildhall and open the commission et nine o'clock Last night. The ju dges Mr. Justice Bytes and Mr. Justice Campbell, are expected the first thing in the morning. The criminal business will be exceedingly light, both as the number of prisoners and the character of the offences n r ces with which they are charged. The civil business is likely to be unusually heavy. There are about twenty special jury panels issued, and from 30 to 40 ordinary causes. NORTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Canarts, Annun 8. (Before Mr. Baron Pigott.) 5088 V. REID—ACTION FOB BILDUCTION. Mr. Bowen, with Mr. Hughes, appeared for the plaintiff, the defendant did not appear, either personally or by counseL The former claimed 1,000/. for the seduction of his daughter. The plaintiff was described as • professional man re eking in London, and the defendant us trunk and port. mantean manufacturer, who until the occurrences w - hich had given rise to the present action was living within two or three doors of him. Both were middle-aged men, the plaintiff having a family of nine children, and the defen dant being also married and the father of a family. Some acquaintance existed between the families prior to 1862, the defendant being in the habit of frequently coming into the plaint . .ff's studio ; but in May of that year the plaintiff's hter, a girl then 18 years of age, first entered the defendant's premises, on complying with a request of his to supply him with some swan's down for the purposes of his business. She called frequently until the end of that year, sometimes in company with the defendant's brother, who was about her own age and unmarried. The defen dant's family lived awav at Battersea. On New Year's Day, 1863, the again called and the shop being closed at 5 o'clock, as it was a partial holiday, she rema ined with the defendant about an hour after it was closed in the par lour behind it. She said she was reading during the first part of the time, but before she left the defendant at tempted to take liberties with her, she resisting him. Other calls ending similarly were sp oken of, but about the 13th or 14th of February he succeeded in seducing her. In December she found herself pregnant. She represented her state in strong terms to the defendant and applied for assistance, but he only advised her to do what she could to get rid of the child, promising, however, if she did not succeed, to send her to Paris. But he did nothing, and in August, while the father, who was not made aware of her condition until that time, was away at Dorking seek ing lodginge for her, she gave birth to a child at home. The defendant afterwards, on the father threatening to sue him unless he made proper provision for the infant, sold or pretended to sell his business, and disappeared, giving it out that he had gone to America. Some extraordinary letters were received from him about that time. In one be wrote : " At sea on board the royal mail steamship, outward bound for New York. " Dear Mr. Ross,—Forgive the familiar sentiment ; you were once my lear friend, and though your sentiments are now sadly changed, yet my esteem for you is unabated and my friendship unalterable through all the changeful scenes of eventful life. In consequence of events which cannot be entered upon at present, you sought the recovery of • sum of money, which you generously advanced to me at • time when it wee of essential service. That act I could forget, and here record my obligation to you with feelings too profound for language to depict. Had you personally agreed on terms, or explained the indefinite nature of your claim without the harsh intervention of law, or the vindictive inter ferences of others more actu ated by rancour than wisdom, I would have done all that lay in my power to have paid you, but as that was refused Indignantly, and you would give no personal explanation of your entire demands, but declared a desire for revenge, and expressed • determina tion to ruin me, I resolved that the sacred tie of friend ship which had united us so keg should not be ruthlessly dissevered by the merciless rigour of legal execution, in compelling payment of an obligation which had been spontaneously conferred without any acknowledgment sought or given, and which ought to be paid back as spontaneously as it was lent. By succumbing to such legal pressure, it would have robbed me of that virtue with which gratitude redeems misfortunes. I have therefore deferred the settlement of your claim till I am saiely esta blished in a country where the kw wbieh you invoked to [the next word was unintelligible] me is impotent, and where the myrmidons have no jurisdiction. The breaking up of my home and departure from a neighourhood where I have spent so many happy days was in itself • sad &as amity, but you wereinexorably bent on my utter ruin, there was no alternative but humiliation, which I could not brook from a respected friend whom I had so respected (oh, sad revulsion of feeling). I now seek my destiny in the wide world of adventure. I bear the surging roar of the Atlantic billows, wild and sad. Oh, what recollections it recalls of a far receded shore, still dear to memory, though clouded with the fall of misfortune, and covering the seared and saddened hearts of broken friendship 1 Mr. Ross, you are not ignorant of my sincere and devoted at tachment to you. Can you still believe all that has been said against me? I here declare, before the unclouded majesty of Heaven, deeply sensible of my responsibility to Almighty God, that I was innocent of any base design to injure your daughter Emily. I valued hersociety too much to meditate any wrong to her or injury to you. When the virulence of resentment has pissed away, I feel confident Emily will do me justice ' if her conseienee does not smite her with remorse for the calumnies uttered against me. I will leave to time to reveal the truth. Ido not wish to breathe a word against her ;it is against my f • to do so, and though she has said mant ic a k treeious thiinga against me, which are not true, and w she has sines altogether denied again to me, yet I reset willingly forgive her, and trust she may ever be under your care and treated with kindness, which is the native pro perty of your have Mr. Rosa, lam berried, bat will you grant the liberty I take of warning you to beware of that den of infamy in Gileton-road. Suffer not any of your daughters to go there. I know more of that place than I would reveal There is no hidden motive in this allusion, nor hint of any thing wrong in your daughter in association with that place ; but simply se an intmeeted friend, knowing the 'litany of the place alluded to, I would seriously warn you against any connection there. Let year be ensured that I have a deep desire to be true to yon. If you deem me worthy of your further confidence, which I will never abuse, sad wish any explanalion, I will meet willingly give it. Adieu, dear Mr. ROM ; every sue se at. tend you in your professional etruggies, is the ardent sad sincere wish of your., most faithfully, Waken Reid.
