IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. ' HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WRDNIMDAY, mix 30. (Continued from yesterday's Express.) MERSEY, IRWELL, &0., PROTECTION BILL. After some further disinuaion the house divided open the pigsties " that the bill do pas." The numbers were : Ayes Nose 35-48 The bill accordingly The Earl ass ofe& Shrew= Estate Bill was reads third and_p VE.NTILATION OF GOVERNMENT SCHOOL& Mr. JONES asked the Vice-President of the Council of Education whether any and what 'steps bad been taken to remedy the defective state of the ventilation M the govern ment schools, adverted to in the late report of the sanitary sommissicieers, and whether the attention of the right bon. gentlemen bad been called to the system of Mr. Cooke, the engineer, of Springlardens, which bad been applied to several public buildings, and iuncingst others the Colonnade Institution, Clare-market. ' Mr. LOWE said the Committee of Council took the greatest pains with the veotilatMu of the schools they as sisted in building, and he bad no reason to believe that the ventilation of government schools was at all in a defective state. He was not aware of the nature of Mr. Cooke's process which bad been applied to the Colonnade Institu tion in Clare-market, but the government were of course always ready to consider any improvements that were brought under their notice. UNION RELIEF AID BILL. Upon the order of the day for the consideration of the amendments to thia Colonel W. PATTEN presented a petition from the board of guardians of Chorley, stating that they had seen the bill as amended, and that they did not thine it would give them the relief they required. They prayed to have the power of borrowing money upon the rates for the relief of the poor during the present distress. Mr. PULLER moved its recommittal for the purpose of moving clauses to enable guardians of unions to borrow money on the security of the rates. Mr. HIBBERT did not think the bill in He present sha pe would give that instant relief which was sought ; it would do away with the great motive for economy ; it would destroy the independence of the people, and would seri scaly affect the occupiers who would be called upon to pay the rates. Mr. VILLIERS said the questions raised by the two hon. gentlemen were the same as these which had been fully considered by the house the other night. If they were to encumber a parish with a lead of debt, numbers of persons would at once leave that perish, and make the burden much greater on those who remained. By the provisions of the bill, if any parish exceeded more than one shilling and threepence in the pound it had a ready means of getting that mess again. There were 19 unions in Lancashire, including Manchester, but 7 of the 19 were not likely to feel the dis tress. The 12 remaining unions contained 136,600 eau panto over MI years of age, and 91,130 under 20 years of age—making a total of 227,730 persona actively engaged in she cottoo trade; while the wives and infants depending on them might be taken as 138,000 more. Putting an extreme ewe—namely, that those operatives would all require assist anc•—at the present rate of relief the cost would be 864,3011. a year. There were ample means in that county to support the poor in the Tony worst case ; all that was neceseary was to duitsibote the charges over a large area. He did not ex pect the distress would extend beyond next October, when • !supply of cotton would probably reach this country from General LINDSA Y thought the statement of the right bon. gentleman ought not to go forth as one which the house would be glad to see adopted in its literal and practi sed sense. He complained of what the operation of the hill would be in the town which he represented (Wigan). That town would have to pay its proportion of the union rating for Preston and Blackburn, and yet would get no credit for key* its own poor off the rates. Mr. CRAWFORD said that, according to react ac counts, there was 60,000 more bales of cotton on their way from the East to supply the wants of Europe than there were at the err lime m e year. Colonel W. PATTEN said that since he last addrered the house on this question he had been in communicatios with his constituents, and he had that morning received from them the expression of a wish that they should be allowed to relieve themselves by way of loan rather than by the means proposed by the measure of the government. Mr. COBDEN said that unless the house understood more fully than they did at present the question before them they could not dispose of it fur a fortnight at least. He had Leen astounded at the calculations made and put before the hereby his right hoe. friend the President of the Poor-law Board, from whose opinion' he was obliged to differ. The right boo. gentleman bad stated that there were 313,000 employed in the cotton trade, and that they would he throws out of work. Nothing would induce him to speak of the right honourable gentlemen as being hard-hearted or inhuman. But his fallacy con sisted in this, that that large quantity of persons would Le thrown out of employment and that the rest of the population of Lancashire would be in their normal condition. But the prosperity of the whole people depended on the prosperity of the cotton industry—in fact the employment of the whole population was like the works of a clock, and if the main-spring was broken the whole works would be stopped. The people of Lancashire would be distressed if the cotton trade was stopped. The argu ments of his right hon. friend were so fallacious that he should Dot have thought of referring to them if be had not seen such a large amount of ignorance existing in high quarters. The way to view the question was that every part of Lancashire was engaged in the cotton trade. Some honourable gentlemen talked of separatiog the manufacturing parts of Lancashire from the agricultural, but those parts which were not engaged in the cotton trade were very mull indeed. (Hear, hear.) If there were • rate in aid over soy part, it would soon raise the rates to the same amount es in the more distressed parte of the country. The rateability of the distressed unions was at present 3,165,000/., but the whole rateability of Lancashire was 1,449,001 k. Then it was assumed that after deducting the distresied unions all the rest of the county was agricultural But it was nothing of the kind. The returns before the house did not, it was true, include Liverpool, Warrington, Todmorden, and other places; but he might assert that there was not 1,000,000!. of rateable property in Lancashire which was purely agricultural. If they pared this bill as it stood, they would dis tress and impoverish the other towns in the county. The town which he represented had asked the house for the power to raise money to maintain their own poor, bat the house and the government had obstinately refused to grant that power. He could not see why it should be refused. (Hear, bear.) He had that morning received a telegram stating that the bill as it stood would be only • mockery, and entirely useless to them. (Haar, bear.) It was really monstrous that they should push this bill so rapidly through the house in the last few days of the session, as that the people hail. no time to make known their opinions on the subject except by the telegraph. (Hear, hear.) Assuming that some some portion of the people must have extraneous succour, be would ask whether it would not be better that they should allow the guardians to borrow money. The very fact that some parishes had small poor ores in prosperous times was evidence of their being elle to provide for their poor by the aid of • lone. What was wished at Rochdale was the wish of all Lancashire. (Hear, hear.) There might, it is true, be some crotchety *uxli vidnals who were opposed to the principle, but the boards of (guardians generally and the newspaper prase were &deo rang tbegrantiog of thin power of borrowing money on the rates. (Hear, hear.) He had received • letter from the Town Clerk of Stockport stating that full powers of bor rowing money ought to be given by the MIL Then why should the house keep the responsibility on themselves and refuse to give this power which the people themselves asked for. He was quite prepared, r the flamer' all Lancashire —he would not speak for Derbyshire or Cheshire—to give up the rate in aid altogether unless the bill contained borrow ing powers. If the house did not sanction an option— if that should be found imprectioehle—then he would be prepared to peas a bill gristle* borrowing powers and so reject the rate in aid. (Hear, hear.) Bat the bill ought to contain both powers, and he thanked the hon. member for Hertfordshire for bringing the question forward so that the opinion of the house might be taken on it at once. (Hear.) Mr. J. B. SMITH was opposed to power being gives to the gaudier to borrow money for a short period, se the repayment would be atteedel with embarrassment. Mr. NEWDEOATE was in favour of the power of raising mooey by leen. Mr. HENLEY supported the plan of the government, and contended that it was better to stand on the old principle, and suit it as far as possible to the necessities of the ease. If in three months the scheme did not answer, then it would be for the government to call parliament together to devise • mere efficient measure. Mr. 0. LEON expressed himself in favour of the principle of • loom. Lord PALMRBSTON rid be hoped the house would come toe dickies on the question before them that evening. That question was, udder the form of moving • recommittal of the bill, whether the house would adhere to the principle of a rate in aid, or whether it would . recommit the bill for the purpose of ietrodueieg the princ iple of borrowing on the security of the rates. It was no doubt pla usible to propose that such a power should be granted, and it was the easiest mode of getting money, but it would be shifting the burden of present difficulties to • future time, and it would be intro dmang an entirely new principle into the administration of the poor-law of this country. He would remind the house that no argu meek that bola heard would not apply to any other pert of the reeky in distress as well as to isocashire at the present pried. (Hear.) Is far, the principle of borrow ing would apply to every parish In the country where the rates ware hig h er sow thaa I. Lancashire. There were many parishes *ow paying higher rates than any parish in that rusty. (Haar, hear.) No principle could be worse, and it was oppose d to political and dotnertic economy thus to borrow snowy to meet current expenses. Well, was it em eessery to do so? If it mild be shown that there was no other way of meeting the em it it might be permitted: but it had ben demoestrated that - the smith of Lancashire and Cheshire was able to meet any demands which might. to throws moos it. He believed that the rateability of Lemonlike was as much as 10 or 11 millions, and it was idle to suppose that ft would sot berate to contribute fully to the drier. There was • Isms class of mannfeeturers and espilskide 'rho tied mode large fortune*. and some of them bad, retied of relieving.the erring pimple at the d 04141. $4114 out of the country the raw material which they «vitt to have used in their mills in the employment d those ethos* fate they were unmindful of. The principle of borrowing would relieve the rich and throw the burden on the poor. (No, DO.) Yes, that would be so. Why were these manufacturers and capitalists not to be called upon so support the people? They had ample means for doing so. He spoke not oely of manufacturers who bad made enormous fortunes, but of the proprietors of land who had also made large for tunes. The county car well able to support the people, and they ought to be called epee to support them. No body could deny that. (Neer, hese) All that the house had heard was that it would be more convenient to borrow money on the rates ; th►tt,, however, would only increase the bunions of the future. He thought the expanses of the people should be borne out of the current contributions of the rates, instead of introducing a new principle of borrow ing. He really hoped the house would stand by the bill of the government, and reject the amendment. (hear.) The Marquis of HARTINGTON said he must enter his protest against the spirit in which this question had been treated by the noble lord at the head of the government. It was true that many gentlemen bad made large fortunes' by the cotton trade, but many of them had taken themselves and their fortunes out of the country, and bow could they touch them! The real question was, whether by raising this year, and in future years, rates of enormous severity, they would redoes a great number of the smaller ratepayers to pauperism, or whether they would take the advice of almost all who were moat interested in the question, and borrow the money now needed and repay it when that prosperity returned which every one anticipated. He agreed entirely in the observations which bad just been made by the hon. member for the Tower Hamlets. The hone° then divided : For the amendment . Against it BB-7 Colonel PATTEN suggested that the house having now , come tea decision on this point, government should take the matter up, and not leave it to a private member. Lord PALMERSTON said his right hoe. friend had stated at the beginning of the debate that however strong the opinion of the government might be is favour of the plan that they had proposed, yet if the house should be of • different opinion, the question was of such a nature that they , would bow to the decision of the house. He agreed with the bon. member (Colonel Patten), and thought it would be better that his right bon. friend the President of the Poor law Board should frame • clause embodying the principle of the amendment which bad just been agreed to. He did not think it could be got ready for a morning sitting, bat it could be ready by the afternoon. Mr. DISItA.ELI said he thought they ought not to be called upon hastily to give a decision. Mr. UOBDEN said he must take this opportunity of saying • word or two in reference to • remark that had fallen from the noble lord. It was one of greater scope than might be supposed from the levity of the words which fell from the noble lord. The noble lord alluded to manu facturers' rich manufacturers with starving people at their doors, and said they were so unmindful of the fate of these working people that they were sending their cotton abroad instead of working it up in their mills. Now as one con nected with Lancashire—and he spoke for all parties—he knew that 99 out of 100 of the spinners had been working their mills and manufactories for many moothe at • loft, some of them at a great lois. He had read • letter from • person engaged largely in that manufacture, who stated his own cue. He had a stock of cotton on which he could get a profit of 20,000 f. if he sold it, but he preferred to use it and employ his workpeople, by which he would lose 20,0001. He (Mr. Cobden) believed that not only cotton spinners, but farmers and others in the north of Eng land, would do the mme kind of thief', and that them was no employer who would not in a ngorona season employ hie workpeople though he lost by it.. Such a re mark was calculated to produce envenomed relations be tween two classes of persons intimately connected, and who were doomed to severe peril and distress, and was language highly to be reprehended. (Hear, hear.) It was not simply an unjust assertion affecting the character of • large body of men, but it was made with that habi tual recklessness and incorrectness for which the noble lord was remarkable. (Murmurs.) Now, with reference to the measure be would add higurgent request to that of the right bon. gentleman opposite (Mr. Disraeli) that this measure be dealt with with the utmost are and caution. He should suggest that if there were • clause giving bor rowing powers, the government, in framing that clause, should bear in mind the spirit in which the amendment was carried ; because if the govern ment dealt with it in their own spirit they would have a clause which would not be satidaotory, and would cause lengthened discussion. The spirit io which the clause had been carried was this, that it was desirable to allow the people of Lancashire to tide over this difficulty on the assumption that it was • temporary difficulty, and that they should be enabled to do so as promptly as possible without causing that ruin which would prevent them rising stain when the arrival of the raw material enabled them to set to work again. Therefore he suggested that there should be no limit at all as to the amount of rate to be reached before the borrowing power, came into operation. He should prefer to see the original principle of a multiple of all ratan because the position of the different parishes in the north of England was so diverse. They should have confidence in the people to manage their own concerns, and they might depend upon it that the parochial authorities would manage these nutters better than the house would. General LINDSAY said he gathered from what fell from the noble lord that he understood the house had decided on tee principle of • loan instead of a rate. He (General Lindsay) did not understand that they had arrived at any such decision—he understood that the question of the loan was decided by the holm in the way of an alternative, and if he had understood otherwise, he should have voted with the government • she power to contract a loan. Mr. VILLIBBS aid the spirit in which the house, be thought, had voted in this matter would be collected also from the discussion. It certainly was not to interfere with the provisoes of the bill ea introduced by the government, but to admit into the bill an alternative proposition to raise money by way of loan, and in that *pint he could under take to propose a clans, which would not be complicated, and he trusted it would be printed and in the hands of members in time to discuss it to-morrow evening. Mr. BOUVERIE said be hoped the house would not listen to the blandishments of the hon. member for Roch dale, and quoted a speech of Mr. Bright in 1849 on the subject of distress in Ireland, in which the hoe. member op- posed the raising money by loan, and described the distress in Staffordshire in 1842, which had been got through with out any smolt aid, though the distress was much greater than that which now existed. or which he (Mr. Bouverie) be lieved was likely to be experienced again. Mr. DISRAnI asked what would be the course of busi ness, and suggested that the discussion on the clause should be taken on Friday. Lord PALMERSTON said they proposed to meet to-mor row afternoon, and his right hon. friend would submit a clause, and the house would deal with it as it thought fit. They might however discuss the matter on Friday. Mr. LYGON asked, in the event of the bill being recom mitted and the bill passing through committee to-morrow, what course government would take no Friday. Sir G. GREY—We will state that to-morrow. Theiiii;a;ilsenreet;MMttted prof;;Mi,;Artiihe chairman was ordered to reportzurees. The house thenares POLICE AND IMPROVEMENTS (SCOTLAND) BILL. The house ocsisidered the Lords' ameodments to this bill, sad some d them were disagreed to. THE EIPUSS, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 31, 1862. POACHING PREVENTION BII.L.

COBBOLD asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, looking to the difficulties to which the malting trade bee been subjected by the shortening the malt credits, be would consent to give such reasonable extension of credit to the maltsters as rosy be cousisteut with his financial ar rangements. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said be un derstood this question had reference not to the past crop, but to the crop next to come. The question being general in its terms, be could only give a general reply. He should be open to consider any plan which, without deranging the annual system of credit, would give the relief desired. He thought it was poesible that it might be done without great cost, and if there were any oast, it might be provided for. The house then adjourned at ten minutes to six o'clock. MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLN• SHIRE RAILWAY. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday, at 3Lancheeter. The report and accounts were taken es read. Mr. CHAPMAN, M.P., the chairman, in moving that the report and accounts be adopted, regretted the loos of traffic over their property through the war in America, but ob served that the line was especially one dependent upon trade sod commerce, sod the result was a very natural one. At the same time. though suffering more from this cause than the southern Haw, he pointed out that this company were not suffering more than some of their neighbours. The end y thing the directors could do to lighten this misfortune, a.ad in tins they were seelously seconded by the servants of the company, was to reduce as much as possible the work ing expensed, though oars would be taken to keep their working stock without depreciation, so that when their traffic returned they would he quite ready to carry it. He expensed his satisfaction that they bad obtained the West Riding, Hull, and Grimsby Bill, and said the directory in future intended, bef oproceeding with new schemes, to come before the n elder for their sanction. (Hear.) After some dietreke the report was adopted.

The "Stakes-day" sus spin favoured by splendid wee , ther t sod the atemsdaime yea perhaps larger than on many previous ocessiems, asiwillskading the genteel disapprota , tion created by the num sat fa which the principle handicap i had been framed. Then was • tarp Meuse of visitors, , and the " specials " from London were heavily laden with pleasure seekers. At adulate* and Drayton, the places I of "disembarkation," innunistable flys and vehicles were . in readiness to convey comp any to the park. Driven or Hymen, and their " too*" were as usual vociferous and fiercely energetic in their effort& to secure " fans," and in . tending passengers like Sir Hugh Myddelion in the early ' stages of the New River scheme, bad to encounter "vexa tion and desperate despite," before they were accommo dated. The pleasant ride through the lanes with ripened cornfields on each side, and the drive through the perk ap peared to be keenly relished by the rogajcurs, though the clouds of dust and the pertinacity of the card-sellers and other mendicants was evidently the reverse of agreeable to the occupants of the drags, &hob.* and traps. Good wood-house dispensed its hospitalities on the present anniversary end numbers of elegantly-dreamed ladles and members of the aristocracy sauntered on the "croquet" lawn, or is front of the mansion, until the hoar approached for the commencement of the racing, when a general move was made for the coarse. Sport was appointed to commence at L3O, terminating at 5.15. The attendance, as mentioned above, was very pest, the ring being completely filled with book-makers and backers of horses, while the baloonies of the Grand Stand and the lawn were occupied by the elite of the aristocracy and "the landed gentry." Nor were the customer/ diversions of a nor-course missing, for the " pony of sensibility," " kaociVem-downs," and the philanthropic distributors of gold clans (?) entertained the strolling holi day makers. Probably the course was never in finer order, the turf springing underneath the foot as elastic as velvet. As a matter of course the greatest intend was manifested to learn the latest movements on the Stakes, the handicap, from its numerous scratching, and the fluctuations in the market, havingeetirely puzzled the most estate racing judges. As far as we could ascertain the only operations of decided intend were the renewed outlays in favour of St. Bernard, which caused him tolsupplant Aadreyjor the posi tion of first favourite, but My Partner came with such • rush that ultimately the latter had, the call for everything in the race. The prices at which however they settled down will be found fully detailed in the usual place. Very little interest attached to the ongoing race, the Drawing Room Stakes, in which, however ' Watchfire, one of the es Stak horses, was made favourite, and won a remarkably fine race from the Whitewall mare Q.E.D., by a head,entirely through the brilliant aig Fordham. The Goodwood Derby was contested by but three animals, Alvediston, on the strength of his getting seoood in the Stewarda'Cap on the preceding day, being made a strong favourite, and be woo easily. Contrary to expectation the field mustered 16 strong, almost double as numerate as bad been supposed would assemble at the post. The isms of the contest was an astonishing surprise, as all the favourites were ,ignominiously beaten, and the winner, Boabdil, who landed his colours very easily, was almost toothy unbecked by anyone except the owner, who took 1,000 to 15 on Saturday, and 600 to 5 since ; but alto gether, independent of the stakes, the owner wins between 3,0001. and 4.0001. Boabdil has been defeated in all kinds of minor races in various parts of the country ; and even as recently as in the Newmarket July Meeting he ran a dead heat with a " plater " named Oberon, and in the deciding heat, with odds laid on him, was beaten easily. The winner is trained by Brewty at Newmarket, and was ridden on the present occasion by the distinguished light weight, Johnny Daley, who, singularly enough, rode the victor Elcho for this race last year. Boabdil is the property of Mr. Wybrow Robertson, who races in the name of " Mr. Elphiostone," a young gentleman who is returning to India, and whose nod is now advertised to he sold by auction for that reason. Boabdil, however, has been a very lucky bargain, as the horse was claimed when • two-lear-old by Mr. Robertson for 100/. of Mr. Fleming after running in a race at Newmarket. Nearly all the bookmakers have made a rich harvest, many of them haying performed that sa;is factory known as "skinning the lamb." Among the heaviest winners in this class of speculators is Mr. Russell, the Hyde-park Leviathan. "The gentlemen" are of course heavy losers, and as for the " prophets " they were floored to a man, DOD a single member of that knowing fraternity having bestowed a thought upon the despised outsider.

Prior to the time (3.15) the sixteen runners were duly weighed and despatched to the starter, and after waiting some time the flag, announcing that the course was clear, was hoisted, and the competitors took their canters in the following order:—Coronet leading Watcbfire and Fits Eva. At • short interval they were followed by Sir William and Audrey. Then succeeded, at some distance from the above named, Boabdil, Magnum Sonum, Dales man, Confectioner, Rapparee, Montebello, Lady Evelyn colt. My Partner, St Bernard, Highfiyer, and Attune's. After taking the usual preliminary gallop, Magnum Bottum went some slight distance up the Trundle -hill, and showed considerable temper, persistently refusing to join his horses until driven up to them by • few of the spectators who i waved their pocket handkerchiefs, and resorted to other mans to frighten the restive animal to bis competitors. Subsequently Mr. KV:horse promenaded the lot in Indian file in the following order past the Grand Stand : Coronet, Sir William, Atamau, Lady Evelyn colt, Fits-Eva, Watch fire, Montebello, St. Bernard, Dalesman, Confectioner, klighflyer, My Partner, Boabdil, Magnum Bonum, Rap pane, and Audrey. They renamed the lawn and Grand Stand close to the rails, giving the spectators an admirable opportunity of closely inspecting their condition, In the first attempt to get them off APunan led Monte bello, lady Evelyn colt, and Watchfire sane short distance before they were stopped ; afterwards Rapparee, who was extremely " fresh," broke away several times and ap pearedexceeeliogly anxious to commence " the fray," Magnum Bonum continuing his freak.

Yesterday the grand contest between ten picked men from the St. George's, Visteria's, end Queen's (West- =Meter) Volunteer Ride Corps took place at the rifle range at Wormwood Scrubte, for Mr. Turner's challenge prise, and excited oonsiderable interest. This prize, value 100 guineas, was given by Mr. Turner, silversmith, of Bond street, an honorary member of the St. George's Corps, sod a volunteer of 1804, to be shot for by the above corps, the prize not to become the absolute property of any corps, unless won three consecutive years. The prise we. iaati tasted in 1860, when it was won by the St.. Georges, who made 99 points, and the Victoria's 90. In the following year the St. George'. made 89 points, and the Victoria's; but as them was a dispute as to Sergeant Thornbury's rifle (of the Victoria's), it was determined that the matter should be settled by shooting it over again andlthe result was that the St. George's made 113 points an d Victoria's 93, so that for the second time the St. George's became the wiener of the prize. To render it absolutely their own, however, it was neomeary that they should win it a third time before the contest of yesterday. The beet men each corps could prodhee were of course picked for the occasion—the St. s's having amongst them Mr. Memory, winner of the St. e's bronze medal at Wimbledon ' • the Queen's, Westminster, Mr. Leal, a prizeman also at Wimbledon ; and Victoria's, Sergt. Pixley, the winner of the Queen'sprize and tbe gold medal of the National Rifle Association in the present year. The St. George's were not, allowed to have any undue advantage, for they bad to fire at estrange range, sad two of their beet men WOO absent. The butts were deo closed for a fortnight previous to the match, in conse quence of haymaking, and the betting was 6 to 1 on the Victoria's. There were to be five shots each man, at the ranges of 500, 600, and 700 yards, and the whole manta were under the superintendence of Lieutenan iu t T rg . nal Kennedy, on of the council of the National Rifle Amer ciation. The contest began soon after 10 o'clock in the more ing, and the final score shows the following results: Yards. St. George's. Victoria's.

Colonel kiTuiiii47 at the coeclusion of the shooting, addressed the competitor', and said, according to the rules laid down by Mr. Turner himself the St. Oeorge's maps now became the absolute possessors of the prim, and if be was allowed be would make a suggestion that the three corps should unite to make a clialleoge prize, which should be the subject of an annual contest between them. Colonel 'Lindsay said he considerecithis; most admirable a suggestion, cheer, ionand holiendvit would the st. e tii r t ried intc George's, Victoria, and Queen's corps, end the former invited the others to a luncheon at the Pavilion, which wen accepted.

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE BY A CLERGYMAN AT SISTER. On Tuesday the inhabitants of the city of Exeter especially of the lower part of the city, were thrown into the wildest state of alarm, in consequence of the report that was circulated to the effect that the Rev. George Henry Parminter had committed • moat diabolical crime. It is with much satisfaction that we are enabled to correct this report. We are still, however, called upon to narrate • very sad story, though there has happily been an absence of criminality. For some time past the rev. gentleman, who is the rector of the united parishes of St. John and St. George, has been in a most melancholy state of mind, owing to pecuniary difficulties, and of late be has exhibited some symptoms of insanity. Early on Tuesday morning, whilst suffering from a severe attack of brain fever, the rev. gen tleman, in the absence of Mrs. Parminter, got out of bpd, possessed himself of • pocket-knife, and then walked to the nursery, where several of his children were asleep, under the charge of the nursemaid. It would seem that he vary quietly walked to the bedside of his only daughter, a little girl of about four or five years of age, to whom he is de votedly attached, and attempted to cut Ler throat, but only succeeded in severing the skin of the neck sufficient to draw blood. Mr. Parminter on his return to his own room was met by his wife, to whom be said, "Poor little Mary, I have done it . His wife immediately rushed to the assistance of her child, who did not seem the least frightened, and succeeded in stopping the flowing of the blood before the medical gentleman, for whom she had seta, had arrived. The fever was raging so high at the time that the poor unfortunate gentleman seined • poker, but was prevented by his sons from doing auy mischief, and was ultimately induced to retire to his bed, where be is DOW confined, in the most prostrate state of body as well as of mind. The little girl, we understand, is sot much hurt. Mr. Parminter has • large family, who are now plunged into the deepest sorrow. Mr. Parminter is slowly progressing. He was to have met the committee appointed to take the necessary steps for repairing the pariah church this (Wednesday) evening. He bas always been • most faithful and loving pastor, and his kindness has been uni versally shown to his poorer parishioners. Exeter, Tuesday, 10.15 p.m.—Since writing the above, we have been informed that the rev. gentleman attempted to strangle his wife whilst she was sewlog • button on his night shirt. The little girl, who is under the care of Mr. Roberts, surgeon, is out of danger. Mr. Parminter is now in the charge of several men. Up to this time he was somewhat calm, the fever having considerably abated . During the day the rev. gentleman has been wildly exclaiming for his family to be brought to his bedside to receive his particle; blaming, and he has been loud in his calls for his daughter, to whom he is I most devotedly attached. —Western Horning News.
