With respect . to the sales there were few of the prise animals remaming on hand, and the same remark applies to the sheep classes, whilst amongst the pigs, the only prize pen which had not found a purchaser up to yesterday afternoon was the beau tiful pen of pigs for which Mr. W. Baker, of Pure well-house, Christchurch, Hants, obtained the gold medal and first prize of 151., and silver medal to breeder. Shortly after two o'clock, however, they were sold to Mr. Wood, of Marsh-gate, Westminster-bridge-road, for fifty guineas. The number of visitors admitted yesterday through the turnstiles, from Ba.m. to 9 p.m., was 54,571 The annual dinner of the club took place last evening, at the Freemassis' Tavern, when covers were laid for abuutlso gentlemen.

The first annual show of this description waa opened yesterday at the Gill:street Market, Liverpool, and will continue during a period of three days. Amongst the exhibitors are some of the most celebrated breeders in various parte of the kingdom, who have distinguished them selves by the show of prize stock at the London. Birming ham, and other shows. The Earl of Derby and the Earl of Sefton are competitors. In horned cattle the exhibition embraces some of the choicest Hereford steers, short horns, Galloway', and Delamerea, together with a fine buffalo and calf. There are also several short-horn heifers, which for symmetry of form and general condition we should say cannot be easily surnamed, whilst a number of monster oxen are indeed a "show." The display of sheep includes several pens of choice Soutlidowns nod other breeds, and there as alio a good exhibition of the various breeds of pigs. Considerable encouragement is given to exhibitory, the amount to be given in prizes exceeding CAW. The show has been established by a num ber of gentlemen in the neigblourhood practically inte rested in the improvement of the breed of cattle, and also largely engaged in agriculture. The intention is to carry out the objects of the exhibition in each succeeding year on the same comprehensive scale which has now fora lengthened period characterised similar exhibitions at Birmingham and London. The proceeds of the show will be banded over to the Lancashire Relief Food. It was expected that the Duke of (kimbridge and a distinguished party from Knowsley would visit the show during the dsy, but up to the despatch of our parted they bad not made their sp peeranoe. Considering the deteriorating influence of the great Smithfield Show, the stock exhibited throughout was extraordinarily good.

The ball in aid of the funds of the above excel lent charity was given at St. James's-hall last bight, with rumens that was well earned and deserved by the indefati gable committee of management. The rooms were brilliantly lighted and brilliantly attended, most of the leading actresses in London being present amongst the ladies. The stewards could hardly have bean Letter selected for the work they had to perform ; literature, the drama, the liberal professions, and society having each their chosen representatives present. The names of Mr. Belts, Mr. Boucicault, Mr. Buckstone, Mr. Robert Keeley, Mr Charles Mathews, Mr. Alfred Mellon, Mr. Webster, Mr. Toole, Mr. Theodore Martin, Mr. Milbank, Mr. Benjamin Bond Cabbell, Mr. Sims Reeves, Colonel Sir P. Cantle', K.C.8., Kr. Benedict, Lieutenant-Colonel Meyrick, Mr. John Brady, M.P., and Mr. H. W. Wickham, M.P., are only a few which we noted at random amongst sixty or seventy distinguished stewards. The general company was very select, though spirited, and dancing wee kept up with great vigour until an early hour to the mesic of Messrs. Coots and Tinney's experienred baud, which was conducted by Mr. Charles Coots. The refreshments were good sad ample, and all the arrangements were carried out with great liberality and judgment. We understand that the funds of the college will be largely augmented by this entertainment, but that the committee still require more help to enable them to coui pike the central hall of the institution. We are sure that thiy bare only to nit and to have. Tbe pensioners Installed at Maybory on the 29th of last September are happy, ' grateful, and comfortable, and are looking forward to re icome more expectant companions. We since sly congratu late Mr. Benjamin Webster and his friends on what they have done ; and knowing their energy and determination, we have no misgivings about the completion of what they have yet to do. The theatrical profession beyond all others is entitled to public support and sympathy, because it is always ready to help the poor and struggling, and always allows a healthy determination to help itself. DENOMINATIONAL SEWING SCHOOLS. The following correspondence has between a clergyman at Wigan and Sir J. K. Sinatra . = : - " St. Thomas's-street, Wigan, Dec. 2. " Sir,—Would you have the kindneee to give me your opinion on the following point, which is now occupying the attention of our General Relief Committee? " Is it in your opinion more advisable during the present crisis to have mixed or denominational sewing schools in the manufacterieg towns of Lancashire ?—i.e., is it more advisable to have schools in which the young females con nected with the Roman citholics, disaenters, and the established church mix together, or to bare schools in which the different sections of the Christian church can meet by themselves, and where a religious tone can be given to their prceedings ? " Does the system adopted and encouraged by the Com mittee of Council on Education point to the denominational plan ? " I hope you will kindly excuse me troubling you with this note ; the great importance of the subject, and your intimate acquaintance with it, must form my apology. I trust you will allow me to make a public use of your reply. " JAL CHONAIAAW, Incumbent of St. Thoinat's. "The Right lion. Sir James Kay-Shuttleworth." " Gawthorpe, Burnley, Lancashire, Dec. 6. "Rev. Sir,—lt is not possible for me to reply to your inquiry, as an abstract question, whether a denominational organisation of sewing classes is preferable. I have no preference for any other organisation than that which in each relief district will secure the largest attendance of females on these classes, and will also obtain for them the almost inestimable advantage of the attend ance of ladies from day to day with the paid superintendent. " In some towns a denominational organisation appears to be the only experiment by which these two results can be obtained in a high degree; and provided the congrega tional sewing classes comprehend, besides those attending public worship, also those who have hitherto neglected it, and the wayward. fallen , or rude. the opportunity which they afford for religious instruction cannot but be influen tial on a population subdued and ready to receive comfort and counsel. _ .. • . . . . . " On the whole, my opinion is, that generally speakiog, in such tow" as Blackburn. Bernley, and Wigan, the de nominational organisation of sewing elutes will evoke the largest amount of benevolent exertion, and be productive of the most extensive good.-1 am, rev. sir, your obedient servant, " JAMEd D. KAY.SIICTTLEWORTH. " Rev. James Crenshaw." The Times protests against this rise of sectarianism— this denominational sewing :—" The Church of England may surely consider itself strong enough on its own grounds not to require the exclusion of schismatical or rebellious elements in the companttively mild form of a half-starved sempstrees. We presume that at these schools the girls sit and work, aad that they have quite enough to do in following the devious path of the needle and the vaga ries of the thread over the fragments of cut material. The church girl may sit as near as she pleases to a church girl, and, if it is necessary, an interval of a yard or so may save the orthodox from heretical contagion, or the elect from worldly contamination. The mere presence of the erroneous or the unholy in the same spacious, well ventilated room need not be injurious to girls whose hands are fully employed. We presume that silence is en forced, except for mutual instruction in the ab struser points of needlework. This is simply a school of industry, designed to combine instruction and as much profit as possible with relief. There seems no more need to invoke polemical differences into such a ground than into a mill, a workshop, a mine, • quarry, a harvest field, or any other field of industry. IA berever you go, whether in town or country, you find different denomina tions working very amicably together, and imperceptibly forming a common standard of morals and sentiment quite as truthful, manly, and genuine as what they hear from any pulpit or any school teacher. The man or the woman who does her duty in all the relations of life is better appre ciated by the honest and industrious than by the preacher who is always trying to find out something sublimer than duty and abstruser than truth. Let these poor Lancashire girls— who, it seems, have yet to learn sewing, and even manners—remember that they are all the daughters of that Eve who had to use her fingers like the and whose first household work, as we are told, was that of the needle. Let them be content to sit all side by ode arid work as hard u they can. While they are in the sewing school, on the old maxim. Lad orare est orare, their praying and preaching is to work welL In their case virtue is strong work, and orthodoxy neat stitching. Work as hard as they will. they will have a few leisure m,ments, which they may give to prayer and praise, which will be all the more genuine if not threat upon their neighbours." THE PEABODY FUND.

BELLIGERENT R IGHT`.4 AT SEA.—The members of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce have bees engaged on several occasions in discussing the subject of belligerent rights at sea. In reversal of the policy adopted by the council of that body, the members have already expressed their opinion against the expediency of abolishing commer cial blockades; and they have held two meetings for the purpose of considering the action of the council, that body having repeatedly expressed its opinion in favour of the exemption of private property from capture at sea. A long and interesting debate took place on this subject on Wednesday week, when Mr. James Spence proposed an amendment upon the proceedings of the council against the propriety of furthering any movement which would tend to impair the right of captors at sea. Yesterday the chamber again aremMee foe the purpose of resuming the debate, and there was a considerable number of members present, and we learn by telegrapt that, after a debate of five hours, Mr. SPelme's amendment was lost by 40 to 21 WAIL [Stamped, Id.

The expenditure had bees 6361 lls., an increase of 221. 15s. on the week. The Rev. J. Cionshaw moved that the sewing schools be made denominational, and was proceeding to reed a number of letters which he had received from Blackburn and Ashton-under-Lyne confirmatory of his view when the committee ruled that the opinions of gentlemen who knew nothing of the position in which they were placed iu Wigan could have no weight with them. The letter of Sir J.

He moved an amendment that the schools remain as at present. Mr. F. G. Duttou seconded the amendment. The Rev. Sir H. J.

THE COLLIERY EXPLOSION .AT WOES- BOROUGH DAM!. This terrible calamity continues to engross the attention of the Booth Yorkshire mining districts. No thing so fearfully disastrous has occurred in Yorkshire sines 1857, when the great explosion at Luodhill sent a thrill of horror throughout the whole country. The preemies of an immerse crowd of persons from Barnsley and the surrounding villages, on Tuesday, testified to the interest which this great cala mity hell excited. The road from Barnsley was thronged throughout the day with crowds of pedestrians, many of whom were on their way to the colliery to ascertain the fate of relative. or friends. Many of the men who are dead formerly re sided is Barreile ; and here and there on the road were earn groups ooilected round women, whew pale arid pief.uncken features too surely bore witeres to the outset of their distress. Around the pit mouth there wee a vast crowd, amongst which were a large number of the wives and female relatives of the deceased. Some CI them carried young babies in their arms, sad the greater part presented • very squalid and arty stricken appearance. Their grief was painful to the more pueful that it did not find vent in noisy descen d/laicise, but was expremed by the pale, rigid features, and the fixed and tearless pie with which they regarded the fatal shaft—the grave of their hopes. Very soon after the uourreece of the last and bunt fearful explosion, the proprietor' of the mine summoned to their aid several local gentlemen of eminence as nixing engineers. Mr. Brown, of the firm of Blown and Jaffa/elm, of sheffleld arid Barns ley ; Mr. Maddixon, of the Worebtro' Park Pita, sad Mr. Mitchell, the managing partner, held a eonanitatisa with the view et deciding on ;same tarns of extulpiehing the fire is the wise, and re covering the bodies. As one result of their deli berations, a large body of workmen were set to die • trench from the main shaft to a small stream stir the Deane, and Dove Canal, the inteutioe being to flood the worksheet that source. The men worked to strong relays dune( the whole of the night, and on needs, townie( were still Asrwaly at work. The difference iq *levels of the pit hill sad Vie bed of the stream was so gre“ that the trench was ulna to be cut to • depth of 14 fed l bash through the hill any fall could be obtained by *Web the water would run into the mine. The cutting was, partly through the rock, and the work entailed immerse labour, and was not con cluded when we left the colliery is the evening. The prepa rations to flood the mine were viewed with marited favour bye large number of the younger colliers, many of whom were saxious that another attempt should he made to recover the bodies before the water was turned in upon them. This feeling was very naturally shared by the wives and female relatives of the entombed miners ' and as the day wore on and Do attempt was made to go down the mine, the crowd indulged in some strong expressions of opinion. The front of the office, wherein the consultations were being held, of Mr. Morton, the government inspector for the district, and the gentlemen above-named, was thronged with women, whose overpowering anxiety to get the bodies of their friends out of the mine was repeatedly ex premed. About 3 o'clock, Mr. Morton and Mr. Bar tholomew passed through the crowd, and imme diately afterward' • cry was raised for "volunteer to go down the shaft." lostantly the number men tioned—six—was supplied thrice over by the brave but en rollee/dog misers ; but after a long interval of anxious sta. pease, it wee decided that there should be no attempt made to penetrate into the mine until it was ascertained whether the fire was out or not. The decision was received with great dissatisfaction, and eventually a deputation, consist ing of eight veteran colliers, was selected to wait upon the managers. The men composing the deputation were John Shelton, James Stork, John Rigby, Edward Thorley, Richard Wilson, Wm. Stanton, John Wrote, and Robert Retoliffe. They were admitted to an interview, after which they stated that they had come to the conclusion that nobody living was left in the pit on Tuesday at four o'clock, but that the crowd wished to see the bodice out. Mr. Mor too replied that as government inspector be could notassect to the application. Ile could not allow any one to act in a manner which would probably put more lives in peril by causing another explosion, more severe than the others. The blind and ignorant ram, atienoe which the crowd exhibited against Mr. Morton became more serious, and a large crowd aseenabled in front of his quarters in the evening, and one of the men was seen to throw a stone through one of the office windows. A riot is anticipated if the intention to flood the mine is carried out. It was expected that the water would be turned in about eight yesterday morning. In reference to the ventilation of the mine, the general statement is that the 'amply of air warvery . good. In a statement proreding from the proprietors, we found a passage : 'The miss was worked with safety lampe— fitepheneoe's." In testing the various rumours by personal inquiry emseed the men, we were assured must positively that no lamps had been used until last Saturday, and then only by the men engaged in working near where the explosion took place. The other informants added that the gas had " tired " repeatedly in that district during the past week, and that on one occasion a fire burned for three hours before the steward and his men succeeded in extinguishing it. The truth of these statements will of course be tested bye jury. The calamity has deprived 29 women of their husbands, and made 77 children orphaos. There were 15 single men and one widower amongst the killed, and eight boys. Some of the saes arc peculiarly &stemming. The widow of one man (Charles Frobisher) had, when she married him, a family of three children by her first husband, who was killed at the great explosion at Daley Main. The unfortunate woman has again lost her sole support by this calamity. In one family (earned Hartley) death hes been busy. Mrs. Hartley died a few mouths ago, and now the father and two sons are carried off at one stroke, leaving the remaining child, a girl, dependent upon charity for a livelihood. Many of the households in Worsborough bale and the Common, so lately happy and thriving have been suddenly deprived of the bmedwinsire, and reduced to despondency and poverty. Mr. Smith, sumeon, of Barnsley, who a assiduously attending to the sufferers, states that several of them are in a critical position. Every attention is being paid to the unfortunate men, and there are hopes enter tained that the bulk of them rill be able to go about again in a short time. _ _ _ Mr. Taylor, coroner, opened an inquest on Tusedsy night oa the body of the man named Davy, then lying at the Masons' Arms. Formal evidence of identity was given, and the inquest adjourned. George Pickering died whilst the inquiry was proceeding. At nine o'cl.ak on Tuesday night the engineers of the inspector determined to " seal-up " all the piss, and turn the water in, with* view of putting out the fire. Threats were freely uttered as to what would be done if the engi neers persisted in their intention. JEWELLERY ROBBERIES. At the Public-office, Birmingham, yesterday, before Mr. Kennonley, stipendiary, several charges were heard, in which four foreigners, believed to be Polish Jews, were implicated, they having been engaged in robberies of jewellery in Birmingham and in London. In the fleet case, two men, named Tobias Kynnler and Herman Levey, were charged with having committed a robbery on the premises of Messrs. Payton, manufacturing jewellers, in Northampton-street, on Friday last. The facts, as detailed by Mr. Idotteriun, of the Oxford circuit, who appeared for the prosecution, were as follows : —ln the course of Thursday last the prisoners called at Messrs. Payton 's place of business, and having represented themselves as foreign merchants, intimated their wish to purchase goods. They were informed that it was not convenient to show the goods at that time, and au arrangement was made that the men should call on the following morning, which they did. They were waited upon by Mr. Henry Payton and a olerk in attendance. Mr. Payton had a suspicion that the men were prigs ; he was out only especially watchful and cautions of every movement of his customers, but by a memorandum in writing upon • card he enjoined watchfulness on the part of his clerk. No movement was seen by either. A selection of articled was made by each of the prisoners ; thew were put aside on a couple of trays, the men stating that they would call again at 2 o'clock, when the things were packed, pay for them, and take them away. At the first interview the men said that they would pay for whatever was purchased. Mr. Payton suggested that the goods might be packed in • quarter of an hour and when at once, if the prisoners were prepared to pay for them. However, they left the place in a cab, with a promise to return at the hour named ; a minute afterwards Mr. Payton noticed that one of the brooches selected by the prisoners was miming from the tray • his suspicions became strungey ; and he despatched his f ather in search of them. The prisoners were overtaaeu and brought back, much against their will—almost by fore*. On entering the warehouse one of them asked to be shown the trays ou which were the goods they had selected, and sud denly, with a dexterity which eluded all vigilsaoe, the brooch Mr. Payton had mimed re-appeared upon the tray. Upon that • policeman was called in ; be prooesded to smirch Kyonler, but nothing was found on him ; the;other prisoner iu the meantime in some mysterious manner had deposited on the counter sight brooches and so less then thirteen pairs of earrings, which he reproduced almost aa THE INTERNATIoNAL EXHIBITION.—The sale by cleverly as be had secreted them, one of the earring only auction of the effects of the refreshment department was falling ou the floor near to him.
