C A VICTION OF A RAILWAY PORTER FOR WORKING ON SUNDAY. A cue of some importance to railway companies - has ivst been decided before the Bath magistrates in re twee. a Sunday trading.

I, Knapp admitted that the man was employed es stated, big r. tkon•ht Mr. Welters bad misunderstood the act ea ter which he had applied. The summons was under the MU Charles 11., sec. 1, and he (Mr. K.) contended that that ert 1.... red osly to tradesmen, artificers, and the like, and that tb: words of the sectionwould not embrace such a railing as that ea - .ited by the defendant lie also contended that the mode teylag by railways was not contemplated by any of the ar voi t la ;mimed to the observer ce of the Lord's day.

The company bad stczetly taken off the night Foods train because they found tl eh. y could do without rt, but they necessarily ran one sr cds *rain on the Sunday, Smithfield market being held on 111. day.

M. Clarke also stated that on Sundays one-half of the kris establishment, eltsks, porters, and policemen had the who of the day to themselves.

The execution of Rebecca Smith, for man.— beast child, took place on Wednesday, in (mat of the Prison, Devisee. The Devises Gazelle says: " It is impossible to give any tiles hke a comet ealealation of the number of peruse to witness the seen. They were ersantlem. Frees I= Bll o'clock, people poured into the town eheals— em leek in waggons, in boats; end by the lathe hew, the CatMditatkilbetinitrsaerieti sovaelesi:iderdsseard eissimmd. Still the roads were lined witk proem Umeging to Ike spot. People were there from every part of the isemsty—old end young, end infants ; bat they were chiefly et the classes, and there were thousands more of mom thanof men. " From the p:riod the miserable woman entered the prim to the moment of her execution, her conduct was ma becoming. Mild and contented in her manner and depesoment, it might be thought that she wee totally in capable of the unastural crime of which she wes convicted. She atones un hesitatingly confessed her crime, and acknow ledged the knit', of the punishment that awaited her, and frequently expressed a hops that others would take a warn. leg by her fats. At the same time she was extremely igno rant, and betrayed a want of any deep feeling. She could and bat imperfectly, and what she did read she was scarcely able to understand. On Tuesday her husbAnd and daughter, accompanied by her brother and sister, Itia seine other =embus of fataiig, VON a dmitted, for the last time, to see her. There was such a total absence of feeling on the part of the hus band, as to induce some remarks on his conduct. The sister was deeply affected, as wee her brother. As the time approached forher execution she appeared to Gel more deeply her dreadful situation, and she passed rather a ri at night. But she afterwards recovered her wonted :calm nen and ate • m 3lerate breakfast in the morning. " Shortly before 12 the tolling of the prison bell an. rouneid that she had but a few usinutes more to live, and she was ushered from her cell. Accompanied by the proper euthoridis. she wes at once conducted to the gallows. the chaplain reading portions of the butosl service us the pro. canon pr. (—tiled. Paring this time she did not utter • word. ROT aid a sigh escape her, but her countenance the peered quite eempsteed and her step fira. Arrived on the drop, the rope was ID moment round her neck ; she shaped and raised her hands together, as it in fervent prayer, and, after a slight struggle, she was dead. "She was about 44 years of age, had beenmarried eighteen years, and had eleven children—the eldest only, • daughttit er is now alive. The 'mad, a boy, died of diarrbir aat ; age of 14 weeks. AU the rest, with the exception of the last but one, the unhappy woman acknowledged that she poisoned a day or two after their birth. She was extremely all herself when this child was born, and it was in COOK qualms taken to a neighbour; it died a fortnight afterwards, bat she never even saw it after it was taken from her. Seven of her children she destroyed by administering to them a poison she called "blue," used for destroying rats and mice, and which she said she took from the ricks, where it had been placed for that purpose. The last child she poisoned with arsenic, and in each can she put the poison in the child's mouth with her finger. She implicated no other person in the crime—she, and she alone, did it, and no ens else knew anything about it. From the first week of her marriage down to the last which she lived with her husband, he had been given to drunkenness; and " it was that," (she said) drove her to her crimes. He scarcely ever brought home a shilling of his wages. She herself toiled bard in the field during the day, and at night she came home and washed and did all the household work. With nothing then to maintain the family, but what she herself earned, which was' 4s. a week, and that only when she could procure work in' the fields, the fear that the children would come to want operated so powerfully upon her, that she de stroyed them in the way stated. Her father and mother lived at Bretton, and attended the Baptist chapel at that place; her mother being a mem ber. They were much opposed to the marriage; and, knowing tae husband's habit of drunkenness, they fre quently endeavoured to persuade her to leave him and come again to their home. As was stated last week, on the death if her father, she came into possession of 1001. ; and about this time she and her husband went to live at Westbury, and rented ten sere§ of land; but the money was soon dissi. pa•ed, and there ',is no doubt the woman underwent many and severe privations. "This is the fourth person that has been executed in front of the prison since its erection in 1810, viz., Goodman and Amer, on the 201 April, 1842, for robbing and assaulting Mr. Thomas Alesandsr, of Allcannings, on the highway ; and George Maslen, on the 6th September, 1838, for mali ciously skeeting at Kr.

AN AWKWARD Fix.—Yesterday afternoon a van, laden with furniture, belonging to a person named Thomas, a greengrocer, residing in the Edgeware• road, was proceed ing over the bridge of the Paddington canal, when an ex traordinary circumstance occurred. The bridge, it will be remembered, is near the New Lock Hospital, where there is a considerable declivity. Neither of the wheels of the waggon was " skidded," so that in the descent there was a tremendous pressure on the haunches of the wheel hones He was forced forwards en th • leader, which took fright, and drew the waggon to the side of the road. The leader leaped a fence, about three feet high, into a paddock, be longing to Mr. White, and the wheel hone followed the ex ample, but was ecurht by his hind legs, and the poor animal was flied in dreadful agony until a saw war procured, and it was liberated. The leader was unhurt. DEATH OF MR. HENRY FOTON. Among the many victims to the cholera, it is with deep regret we nand the name of Henry Hathenngton, he well-known publisher and newsveader. It is • MUM familiar even to those mars the middle and upper classes who hare paid little attention to the move ments which are going ea areas Uri: less wealthy, toiling tellow-anntrymen. The redustion of the stamp duty on newspnrce i z foonesos to one penny, was onepenny , mainly droned by warfare which Mr. Hetherington carried on whist Use higher tax. With that redoetion his name is inseparably associated. One of his last public seta was, in eonaszion with his old coadjutors, to form • society for the purpose of obtaining the repeal of the remaining duties on newspapers, and " emancipate the prom from all control, except that exercised by a court of law." But his public services had no such limited range r might be, perhaps, inferred from this specification of his principal achiererneet. He wits a reetryman (and • mar ireful one) of the perish of fit.

He attended and spoke with his wonted liberal energy and good sense at the recent meeting in the Priss's Iheatre in favour of parliamentary and financial refor m; and how as present at the Drery•lane awning.

RAILWAY MEETINGS. SOUTH YORKSHIRE, DONCASTER, AND GOOLE. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at the Prise* of Wales Hotel, Mubro', yesterday afternoon. Earl FITZWILLIAII, the chairman of the compsay, presided. The Directors, in their report, stated that since the last half-yearly meeting the construction of the railway had been prosecuted with vigour. From the report of the engineer, u well as from personal observation, they had no resent to doubt that the line would be open for traffic between Swin ton and Doncaster early in the month of September. The statementof accounts up to the 30. h of June, showing a ba lance of 29,6941. at that date, had been for some days in the hands of the proprietors ; it was therefore only necessary to add that the subsequent receipts amounted to 32,587/. The revenue account showed an undivided balance of surplus profits from the River Dun Navigation Company to be received on the amalgamation of 13,9351., out of which it was proposed to declare a deferred dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum for the half year ending July 22nd, smunting on the capital now called up to 7,5601. The report was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then moved that ten shares on which the calls had not been paid be forfeited, and that the direc tors be empowered to dispose of the same.—Carried. The next resolution, moved by the Cnaiumur, was " That no vacancy which may occur in the board of &Tu tors by death, disqualification, or voluntary retirement, be filled up till the number of directors be reduced to six." Carried unanimously. The last resolution was, " That a dividend of six per cent. ppeer annum for the half-year, ending July 22, 1849, be now declared out of the revenue account, and that it be payable one month after the amalgamation; of the railway with the River Dun Navigation Company." Mr. RUSSELL, of Wath, asked when the amalgamation would take place ? The CHAIRMAN replied that it would take place as soon as half the capital had bun paid up. The CHAIRMAN said there was now about 40,0001. in unen, and another call would make it up to the sum which • was required before the amalgamation could take place. ' Mr. RUSSELL asked if half the capital had not already bein celled in ? His loreship replied that half the capital bed been called up, but there were arrears to the extent of 40,0001., which rendered it necessary for another call to be made. If all these sells were paid up, the amalgamation would take place immediately. The resolution was put and carried unanimously. Mr. RUSSELL—I should like to know whether that 19. " long-named line," the ."-heffield, Rothersham, Barnsley, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Pontefract, and Gaols Railway -818 (laughter), is going on ? 695 The CHAIRMAN—I believe it will be proceeded with. ,004 Mr. RUSSELL—It will never pay a fettling. (Laughter ) After a vote of thanks to the chairman, the meeting 497 broke up. 15▪ 0 NEWRY, WARRENPOINT, AND ROSTREVOR. 300 Yesterday the adjourned half-yearly meeting of this com- Ln puny wee held at the office in Moorgate-etreet, for receiving 1100 the report of the committee appointed at the last meeting to 206 investigate the affairs of the COIK any. Lord NEWRY and 691 Monza hsving taken the chair, 156 Mr. COCHRANE, one of the committee, laid before the 7 90 meeting the report of their investigation, when 50 7 The CHAIRMAN begged to observe that this report was 896 only signed by two of the parties, namely, Mr. Shand and 600 Mr. Cochrane. 610 The SECRETARY read the report of the committee, which stated that all papers, accounts, and plans had been 412 placed at the disposal of the committee, from which they be. . 261 tiered that the expenditure of the company bad been in ac . 304 cordance with the act of parliament, although its amount had .698 exceeded the original estimate, which was extraordinary in • 4 19 so small an undertaking. The committee could not fail to 199 observe the slow manner in which the directors had paid ,004 their calls, and that the remuneration of the board had been regularly appropriated without reference to these sneers. .746 The future aspect of the company could not be correctly ,131 ascertained from various Causal, and the amount 144 of outstanding debentures formed a serious obstacle. ,144 It was, however, their opinion that with efficient arrange .67B went, and after the present time of embarrassment had been 112 got over, the line between Newry and Warrenpoint would 683 offer a fair return for the outlay of the compsny. The coni s64 mitts, thought the directors would consult the best interests 809 of the company and that of the public by transferring the 308 Inicinese of the board from London to Liverpool. 813 - Mr. COCHRANE then moved that the said report be 847 printed for the use of the shareholders. . 300 Mr. BURGE gave his resifts why he objected to sign ,668 that report as one of the committee. He thought the se sl2 counts were very clear indeed, and as to the arrears of the directors, they must be attributed to the dispute which had 230 occurred about registering the shares. A 4 to the removal of , 9 7 1 the office of the company to Liverpool, it was his opinion ,496 that it would be more Injurious than otherwise to the under. taki. • Af ng ter some consideration the observations of the directors in reply were read to the meeting, from which tt appeared ,587 that they attributed the main embarrassment of the company 933 to the speculations in Liverpool, where the arrears still due amounted to upwards of 6,0001. • they further considered the 021 transfer of the company's buadlem there would only injure 364 their undertaking. The arrears of the directors had been 339 since paid, but the suss of them had been as noted, the dis -179 puts about the parties boned to register. 44 Mr. LEA thought if the report of the committee were 130 published, it would be only fair that the reply of the direc -148 tors should also be published. lie trusted the expense would be avoided, as it was in his opinion needle's. He thought, - from the impartiality of the press, that the reply of the directors would be equally aotieed with that of the com mittee. Mr. COCHRANE said that he bad spent five days in the iaveatigation, and he thought the report ought to be pub lished. After some consultation the report of the committee was &freed to be published, but with an explanation of the directors also. Mr. COCHRANE informed the meeting that he was in posasesion of from 1,600 to 1,600 proxies for Liverpool. Mr. LAMBERT objected to the directors being said to be ia wean in that report, and when at this meeting it had beers stated otherwise. The CHAIRMAN said of course the directors would make any additional observations. The report read at the former meeting was then adopted, and a resolution for the forfeiture of 270 shares was carried. Mr. COCHRANE presented a request that four of the present directors should retire to make way for tour others in Liverpool. This was not canted, as a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors had taken precedence. Mr. COCHRANE said he had no objection to a vote of thanks to the chairman, but objected to thanks to the board generally. The meeting then adjourned. GLASGOW, DUMFRIES, AND CARLISLE. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Glas gow on Thursday. A. Out, Beg., in the chair. The BICRITART read the report of the directors, which appeared in the Express of Tuesday last. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, stated that the works along the whole line were progressing favourably, and that the concluding portions of the line had been contracted for ►t a saving of 30,0001. below the esti mate. It was therefore hoped that at an early period next year a large additional portion of the line would be opened to the public. The unconditional resignation of the farmer directors would enable them now to complete the board of direction. The chairman concluded by again moving the adoption of the report. JOHN LEADBETTIR, Etq., ~waded the motion, which was then agreed to, se also the resolution for the payment of a dividend on interest warrants. Mr. LRADBETTRa then moved that the recommendation of the commutes of March last, that no director when re tiring be eligible for re-election for one year, excepting in the case of the chairman, be approved of, so tar as was ex pedient and practicable. The motion was seconded, and after a difcustion agreed to. i A vote of thanks was given to the chairman, and the meting separated. MILITARY. THE. LATE GENERAL Slit WARREN M.

TES RRCENT SCONE IN COORT. Mr. Mellor, on behalf of the London Society for the Pro tection of Yourg Females, applied to the court for an order upon which to bring up a female who, in March last, was convicted of keeping a house of ill-fame, and who was liberated on revtgoisances to come up and receive judgement !when called upon. She bad repeated the offence, and had thereby rendered herself liable to judgment, and the society felt bound to bring the defen dant before the court. Having made the application, Mr. Mellor said, addressing Mr. Witham, sir, I take this opportunity of asking your permission for me to refer to a scene that took place the other day at the Clerkenwell Sea. sions-house, and which was fully repotted in the public newspapers. Mr. Witham.—Say no more about it, Mr. Mellor. It is pest and g one, and let it be forgotten. Mr. Mellor —I must not, indeed I cannot, permit it to be passed over; for I feel it due to my position, as a member of the bar, and out of respect to the court I feel bound to call your attention to the circumstances; for, recollecting the language I made use of towards you upon that occasion, which language was correctly reported in the newspapers, I now admit that I gave expression to certain words--such as how dare you "—which upon reflection have caused me some pain. I confess, sir, that such language, addressed to you, was not only ill-timed, but unbecoming and disrespectful, sot only when considered an addressed to you, as the presiding Judge of the Middlesex Sessions but it wouli have been equally unbecoming and equally disrespectful, had it been addressed to the judge of the most inferior court of the king dom. The relative positions of judge and counsel are such that nothing can justify counsel treating the office of judge with personal disrespect or discourtesy, even though the conduct of tt-at judge should indicate that he had forgotten the sacred duties and obligations devolving mere him. Feel ing as I therefore do, sir, that no proper subordination or discipline could be maintained in courts of justice if the judge were not regarded with gentlemanly feeling and deference by the bar ; feeling this, I canna but say, that, in making an awn* for the expressions, I was under warm and excited feelings, and under the irritation of the moment led into giving vent to them. I am discharging my duty to you, and to myself in confessing that I overstepped propsicty in wing such language, and I there fore beg to apologise for the same, and retract all the offen sive expressions I uttered. Mr. Witham—l am perfectly ratisfled, Mr Mellor, that yen never really intended to insult me, and all I intended was to give you a good-natured hint that you were a little lengthy, and I regret as much as you do that anything un pleasant should have paved. Toe reason I said no more at the time was, that I was convinced that you were not speak ing the calm and deliberate sentiments of your mind. Your apology is ample, and I accept it. Mr. Mellor said he was glad that Mr. Witham took so good natured a view of the matter : he could only repeat his regret. Mr. Hector llnse, who was on the bench, soil that he was extremely glad that this •apology had been =vie. Mr. Mellor had taken a proper and gentlemanly courts, which reflected great credit upon him, and it would have been well had some members of the profession, on different occasions, been induced to adopt the same track course as pummel by Mr. Mellor. The matter then drooped.

Gd., and other sums, amounting to 3/. 10s., with in tent to defraud John Alexander Ratcliff and another, his masters. Mr. Ballentine and Mr. Woollen appeased for the prose cution, and Mr. Patty for the defence. The prisoner, a very gentlemanly-looking well-dressed man, pleaded not guilty, and frequently wept whilst the trial was going on Mr. Thomas Seeker, accountant to the firm, said that the prisoner used to receive from him what monies be required for the current expenses, and the sums en the paper which he then handed in were marked down as fees paid to Ser jeant Channel, which had never been paid. Cross-examined—He came to our firm about the latter end of April. Ile was very indefatigable, and sometimes would be at work as late as 1 o'clock. There was a great multi plicity of business on railway matters in our office. The hrieoner baa bad very large sums of money pass through his ands—several hundreds. There are three separate fees charged as paid to S , rit. Charnell. Mr. Ettcliff had given him a month', notice to leave, which he had sesisted, and claimed to stay the year, and they had come dispute about it. Mr. Whitson, Serjt. Cbannell's clerk, proved that the fees in question had nut been paid. The prisoner called cn him and told him he should retain hint in certain cases, but had not done so. Mr. Parry, in a most energetic speech, contended that in the hurry of business and the multiplicity of affairs, the pri soner might have committed the act he had by mistake. 1848.
