*purttng Intelligente. NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER. MEETING. TUISDAT. - - What is termed the autumnal campaign was commenced to-day at Newmarket, when the first of the autumnal handicapa was decided. Yesterday's arrivals at New market did not promise a large meeting, and the attend ance on the heath to-day was perhaps the smallest ever witnes3ol on the opening day of a "First October Meet ing," whilst the card, if it had been deprived of the t: rand Duke Michael Stakes and the Eastern Railway Handicap, would have been of an uneventful description, notwith standing the number of races apportioned for the com mencement of the week. The weather was cold, a piercing wind driving the thistledown across the heath in abund ance. and visitor* were obliged, owing to the biting air, to seek shelter in their broughams, or have recourse to their overcoats. As already intimated, the attendance was the Newmarket people probably bring de tiered from venturing out in numbers in con sequence of the weather. When the sun shone, however, later in the day, the sport was thoroughly enjoyable. Inclusive of matches the card contained no fewer than 14 races, but some of the matches ended in forfeits, so that there was now and then a lull in the proceedings, which however was not taken advantage of for speculating on the future, and the only betting which did take pl ac e was prom p t ed by the victory of Speculum, the stable-companion of Honesty, who advanced a little, but a gain s e ced e d after the defeat of Pericles in the Great Eastern Handicap. The victory of Lord Westmorland's colt had, of course, the effect of causing inquiries to be made about Thalia, whom her noble owner supported to some extent at the price quoted below. Frmonnier's victory over Hermit, Hippie, and Julius, won the means of introducing the =ale of the sea of Chevalier d'lndustrie into the quota tions for the Cambridgeshire, 1,000 to 30 being taken three times about him. The Crest Eastern Rail way Handicap, contrary to all anticipation pro duced only a dozen runners from the fi fty-five on the card. Up to Monday Bismarck enjoyed the public favour, but on the strength of a report that he and the others in Matthew Dawson's stable had been beaten in the trial by Pericles, the latter became the favourite, and remained ea to the close. He, however, sustained an easy defeat from Mistletoe, the second favourite, and was beaten a neck by Water Cure. The Hopeful Stakes was an • any victory for Athena, but the most interesting contest of the day, wax between the four oracles, the winner of the Derby endeavouring to give Hippia, the winner of the Oaks, 111 b., and 71b. each to Julius and Friponnier. This, however, he failed to do, being beaten somewhat easily by Friponnier, although he beat Hippies couple of lengths, and Julius, who was only • head behind him in the St. L eger , • long way.

In this order they ran till descending the Bushes hill where the favourite closed with Philosopher, the pair finishing a close race home, but Speculum, w h o always had the best of it, won rather cleverly by a head.

Water Coro was the first to show in ad vance, having • slight lead of Mistletoe, Pericles and Bounomwey on the lower ground, the Maid of MAIM= filly and Leases being wide on the right, Sir Oliver and Kingsley being next in the centre of the course. The first of the leading division to compound was Bouninaway, the others maintaining the positions noted above until reaching the entrance to the cords, where Mistletoe beaded Water Cure and Although both Butler and Fortnm:l rode with great determination, Mistletoe won somewhat easily by half-a-length from Water Cure, who defeated the favourite a neck only for the " se. eond pony." Leases, wide en the right, finished • good fourth, barely • head in advance of Kingsley and Sir Oliver, who were respectively fifth and sixth. Close up with these were the Maid of Mamba= filly, seventh, Mount Palatine eighth, Grey Stocking ninth, Bouncoway tenth, Raven eleventh, and Gladiator last, the two last mentioned newer having been in the hunt from the start.

Without any im. pruvement in the pace they reached the Bushes Hill, where Julius was beaten, and as they descend e d th e hill Hippie, who appeared to be winning easily, suddenly gave way, leaving the Derby winner with the lead.

It purports to be bailed by the Debt Recovery Association. The oflices are at No. 2, Bow-street, Covent-garden, and it offers to its members the following advantages :—" Ist. The secretary can be consulted upon all matters. 2nd. Upon debts recovered no costs are incurred. 3rd. If a debt is not recovered, coats out of pocket only are charged. 4th. All moneys recovered are handed over immediately. sth. Doubtful debts are bought by the association. tub. Cash advances made upon personal and other security. 7th. Bankruptcy, divorce, probate matters, and criminal prosecutions at tended. Bth. A solicitor attends court upon the hearing of all eases." Now sir, if the circular alluded to contained no more than this It would not upon these facts be my duty to take any notice of it. But the secretary whom, it appears, members have the advantage of consulting, is described as " Mr. Lewis, barrister-at-law, special pleader, member of the Rome Circuit, Middlesex Sessions, Central Criminal Coart twelve years." Now, if you will please to refer to this year's " Law List," yonwill find that there is only one member of the bar to whom that description applies. There is a person named Charles Wray Lewis, who was formerly a member of the bar, but he was disb arred by Gray's-inn. At all events, I am not the person alluded to as on this disgraceful kind of business, of representiantrag self to be a barrister acting as a solicitor to recover debts. I think it right to make this statement to you, and I shall also think it my duty to communicate the facts to the Law Institute, and I have no doubt that they will act as becomes them. If, however, they should not think proper to take action in the matter, I will. Mr. Flowers—Really, looking at the words of the cir cular, one would almost think it was you. I have looked through the " Law List," and can find no other counsel of the name of Lewis who is a special pleader of the Rome Circuit, Central Criminal Court, and Middlesex Sessions. Mr. Lewis—Four or five gentlemen of the name of Lewis have from time to time written Co the papers to say that they are not the same person as Mr. Charles Wray Lewis, and one of them, unfortunately, has the same initials — Mr. Charles Warner Lewis. Subsequently, Mr. Willis, solicitor, waited upon Mr. Flowers to make a statement in reference to the same matter. He had been informed of the application of Mr. F. H. Lewis, and he found that in the circular produced by that gentleman, he was described as solicitor to the Debt Recovery Association. Now he wished to state that he was solicitor to that association. His name had been inserted without his consent or knowledge. He had no connexion with Mr. Wray Lewis, except that he had an arrangement with him for the use of a portion of his office. When he was informed that these circulars had been printed with his name as solicitor, he insisted upon their withdrawal, and also that all copies of them should be destroyed. At the time he understood that the demand should be complied with, and even now he believed that if any copies of that circular bad been Maned, it must have been by mistake. MARYLEBONE. _ _ _ _ Eleanor Loader, a young woman with golden hair, wail charged on a summons " For that she did unlawfully make use of threats towards William Thomas Loader, her hus band, whereby he apprehended she would do him some grievous bodily harm." This case caused a deal of laughter in court. The husband, who is • thin diminutive man, said—l am a tailor, end work at home. On Saturday week I took my work home and received my money. On the way home I bought a piece of beef and a piece of skirt and two cabbages. The beef and a cabbage was for Sunday's dinner, and the skirt and the other cabbage for supper. When I got in doors I placed them on the table as my wife was dusting the drawers. The child pulled the two cabbages down and I gave it a slap. She said I should not do it as it was her child. I said I would as it was as much my child as here. She said it wee not, and took up the piece of flank and struck me with it. I resented. Murder was being done, of course, and the landlord came up. He advised me to go out for • time till she had cooled down. She said, " You dare go out, and 111 put a flower pot on your head as you go out." I did, however, go out, although I was afraid. On my return I cut half the skirt, put it in the frying-pan, and when it was fried I ate it. She fried and ate the r other half. We didn't wait for the cabbage, as it would be so long. I was going out, and she said I had better not be gone long as she was going away. At mapper we both sat down and ate very heartily. Mr. d'Eyncourt —Then you had two 'uppers ? Complainant—Yes; we had fried skirt and Spanish onions, of which we are both very fond. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Clarke—l suppose you had the Spanish onions to make it up? Complainant—No, we did not, for she had • cab at the door, and took some of the things and went off, and has not returned since. She left me with a child only nine months old in a dying state. Cross-examined—She did come afterwards to see her child, and I said she should not come in. The child has been dying for three weeks. Her father came and held both my hands while she went upstairs to see the child. Her sister also went upstairs. She did tell me that for my conduct on that occasion if she caught me outside she would give me a good hiding, perhaps I might deserve one for it. Defendant—He is a brute. He left me last year when I was near my confinement to fetch a doctor and did not return. On the Saturday bateau the day named be gave me a black eye. Complainant—Yes, when you threw a pitcher of water over me. Mr. d'Eynoourt—Did you give her a black eye? Complainant—Yea, I did in the Kale. Defendant—He has given me two black eyes. Complainant—The cause of my bother is a man I am jealous of, and I found her in his bonne. He is in court now, and she is lodging at his brother's bones. She ran away from home before her marriage, and I have had to throw razors out of window before now, as she was going to cut her throat. . _ _ The commons was then dismissed for some arrange ment or a separation to be come to. Mr. Elliott gave his opinion as to the operation of the New Master and Servant Act. A case came before Mr. Partridge at the court, as was reported in our columns on Wednesday, in which that gentleman expressed himself as of opinion that sins the new act was passed the jurisdic tion of the magistrate was gone to hear the ease, and re ferred the applicant to the County Court for his remedy to recover wages, and directed the fee paid for the ram mons to be returned. No summonses have since been Lewd for wages claimed by journeymen in this court, and the opinion now delivered will remove the impression that the magistrate has no authority to hear such matters. The learned magistrate (Mr. Elliott) gave instructions that summonses should be issued as hitherto for wages. He expressed himself in the following manner :—" It does not appear to me that the act in any way affects the magistrate's jurisdiction with respect to the recovery of wages for work done ; they may be recovered as be fore the passing of the act, either before • magistrate or in the County Court. The new act is strictly confined to the cases of dispatesbetween master and servant therein enumerated, and the provisions is that act are to that effect • substitution for the provisions contained in the old acts as enumerated in the first schedule of the new act, sad in these cases the proceedings must be under the new eat, but in all other respects the provisions in the old acts remain in force. I may observe that it does not appear to me that the new act will be very extensive in its appli cation, as it is confined strictly to the our where the 1 relation of master and servant and operative exists, as defined by the judges in decided cams under the old acts. It will not therefore be applicable to the case of domestic Lervants, nor to the case of pleas work done under con. tract, where the relation of master and servant does not exist. Mr. Elliott added that summonses would now be issued at this court and also at Southwark court, where Mr. Partridge was one of the magistrates. He had wished the act to be considered. THE 817APT.CTED WI TIE-111711DZII AT WOLVlR nAmrrox. —There is reason to conclude that the post mortem examination upon the body of the woman who was found dead on Sunday night in Wolverhampton, after ber husband had threatened to murder her, has died of synoope, The injuries upon her temples and face and head might have been caused by the List, but these were not of themselves sufficient to cause death. The poor creature was reduced to the most pitiable condition of weakness by reason of the ruffianism of ber husband, and the partial starvation to which he subjected her. In this condition such treatment, or even being pushed upon the wall of cinders, and then trodden upon, as is more than likely in this came would have led to the painful issue described. Grert excitement continues to be manifested in the town, the place of the death is thronged by spec tators? and shocking accounta are given of the treatment to which the unhappy woman has been subjected for so many years. THE BIRKENHEAD MURDRIL—The Birkenhead county maglanatae, yesterday, finally committed for trial James Markey, who was charged with the murder and robbery, under the most flagrant and daring circumstances, of Hugh M'Kebon, a marine-store dealer, in February last. Markey was arrested recently in Dundalk. A CHILD POISONED BY GODFREY'S CORDIAL.— Lest evening Mr. Payne, the City coroner, held an inquiry at Guy's limmital, respecting the death of Mary Mammy, aged six weeks. The deceased was the daughter of • bricklayer, living at 13, Booth-court, Kent-street, Borough. On Friday she was very cross, and a woman named Bliss beth Louis advised her mother to give her genie of God frey's Cordial. After the cordial was administered the deceased went to sleep for 10 hours, and her mother be coming alarmed took her to Guy's Hospital. Mr. Henry Taylor, surgeon, said that the deceased was suffer ing from all the symptoms of opium poisoning when she was brought to the hospital. He kept her alive for nine hours by means of the galvanic battery. She then died. Godfrey's Cordial contained one drop of opium to 24 drops of other matter. A child so young ought not to have opiumth. "at all.

It appears from the Registrar-General's return, that in the week that ended on Saturday, Sept. 21, 4,466 births, and 2,828 deaths, were registered in London and in twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom. The annual rate of mortality was 24 per 1,000 persons living. The annual rate of mortality last week was 19 per 1060 in London, 21 in Edinburgh and 24 in Dublin ; 20 in Bristol, 28 in Birmingham, 29 in Liverpool, 35 in Man chester, 33 in Salford, 28 in She ffi eld, 37 in Leeds, 40 in Hull, 34 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 22 in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 25 per 1,000 during the week ending the 14th inst., when the mean tempera ture was 7.0 deg. Fahrenheit higher than in the same week in London, where the rate wee 21. The lower tempera. tore which prevailed during last week influenced the mortality from diarrhum. The deaths referred to this disease in the ten large English towns, which in the two previous weeks had been 507 and 577, declined to 436 last week.

During u fearful cyclone on May 26 the Royal Alfred, from Rangoon to Liverpool, lost her topmasts, was thrown on her beam ends, and had to throw large quantities of cargo overboard. She managed to reach St. Helena, which she Left oa the sth of August under jury rig. On the 20th of August the Englishman, from Newport to Hong-Kong, wasrendered so leaky by struggling through a fearful gale that she has had to discharge at St. Helena. On the lei of August a boat, evidently belonging to the Japanese, from Rangoon to Liverpool, came ou shore at Cape Point, Cape of Good Hope. A Hamburg barque, the Jacob Levy, had been driven into Cape Town, leaky, and with loss of rudder. In the North Atlantic, on the 6th of Sep. tember, the Minnie Sears fell in with the A. W. Singleton to Bostcn from Liverpool, ill a disabled state. She put magi on board to assist in pumping. The United States war steamer Shamrock has arrived in Southampton water. She is a paddle-wheel steamer of about 1,000 tons burden, and is armed with ten guns. It is expected that she will remain in Southampton water about a week. A SI7PPOISID Fncwt AERFATID AT LEICIWZR.— The danger of travelling just now in American costume was illustrated at Leicester on Monday. About mid-day a man with an American aspect and accent, and wearing the broad-rimmed billy-cock hat, arrived at the Leioester rail way station by the Leicester and Hitebin line. On his arrival he was observed by one of the officials to change the name of his dsatinaticn on his luggage, and write "Liverpool "on it. This excited suspicion, and he was at once &netted. He gave the name of James Herbert, and said he bad come from Bharnbrook, near Bedford, and was proceeding to America by Liverpool Hs had a brother at Sharnbrook, and be telegraphed for him, and he arrived in the comes of the afternoon. Prisoner was taken to the town clerk's office, and examined before Mr. 8. Bastian, a borough magistrate. Another telegram was despatched to fituirnbrook to ascertain that all was right with regard to the brother, and that they did both come from that place. This having boon received, and the examination of the luggage having proved satisfactory, the supposed Fenian was liberated. The report that Kelly bad been captured brought crowds around the police and railway stations. . _ ----- SUNDAY PORTAL DILYYNIY.—A memorial, signed by 3,435 inhabitants of Soothe's, ham just been forwarded through the Working Men's Lord's-day Rest Anse dation to bar Majesty's Toetmuter-General to the follow ing effect :—" That the Poet-oflioe servants as well as others require one day's rest in seven from toil That at present the Poet-office of vials in &taboos are employed on the Sunday as well as on otter days ; and that such employment is unnecessary, as in London and numerous other places the Sunday delivery of letters, ha, is entirely dispensed with. The memorialists therefore prey that the delivery of letters, &e., in Southsat be entirely skipped on Sundays." CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (Before the Common Serjeant, T. Chambers, Esq., Q.C.) RING UI4E CA.4I. (Concluded from yesterday's Express). Jar.b He•irg (""hen, 2i. described as a picture-frame maker, and who was admitted to bail at the last session, surrendered to take his trial upon the charge of having feloniously forged a warrant or order for the payment of 41. ls., with intent to defraud. The 'jury, after having retired for about half an hour, returned a verdict of Guilty, and, in answer to a question put by the Common Sergeant, they stated that they had , not considered the question whether the witnesses spoke the truth when they stated that the prosecutor had fetched the frames from the house of the prisoner. When the prisoner wee asked whether he had anything to say why judgment should not be pronounced upon him, he rephst There is &God in Heaven who will one day decide who is guilty and who is not guilty." The Common Serpent, in passing sentence, told the prisoner that he had had a most patient trial, end every thing that was possible had been urged in his favour by the learnedcounselwho defended him and thejury , whose duty it was to decide upon the hate, tjadcome to the conclusion that he was guilty • and be felt bound to say that be en tirely concurred in t hat verdict. The offence originally was not one, in his opinion, of a very serious character, but it was greatly aggravated by the instructions he had given to set up a defence, and to call witnesses to prove facts which the jury did not believe ; and he certainly ap peared to have done all in his power to carry out the threat he had made to ruin the prosecutor. He then sentenced the prisoner to eighteen months hard labour. (Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.) THE CHARGE or ROBBING CHILDREN IN THE STREETS. Edward Nutter, 28, described as a clerk, pleaded guilty to several indictment' for robbery. It appeared to have been the practice of the prisoner to accost children who were carryins parcels in the street, and, under some pretence or other, obtaining the property from them with which they were entrusted. The prisoner, in mitigation of his conduct, pleaded that he might have admitted committing a great number of other robberies of the same description. The Commissioner told him that what he had just stated was rather an aggravation than an extenuation of his con duct. He appeared to have been carrying on a regular system of plundering young lads who were entrusted to carry home property, and the sentence upon him would be one of penal servitude for ten years. CHARGI OF FORGERY AGAINST ♦ CITY lIERCILLNT. George Joseph thlbert Prosi, 28, • gentlemanly-looking man, described as an iron founder, pleaded guilty to an indictment which charged him with feloniously forging an acceptance to a bill of exchange for 501. with intent to defraud. There were several other similar indictmente against the prisoner, but to these be pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. Poland, who appeared for the prosecution, said that the prisoner had carried on business in the City of London as an iron merchant, under the style of Hamilton and Co. He appeared to have drawn bills in the name of that firm, to which he put acceptances and procured the discount of the instrumenta. Thirteen bills of exchange of this description had been discounted by • gentleman named Jones, and it appeared upon inquiry being made that ten of these bill' were forgeries. Mr. Metcalfe, who appeared for the prisoner, addressed the court in mitigation of punishment, and said the fact was that the prisoner had the entire management of the business, and finding that it was failing for want of capital, he wail bound to admit that he had reported to the expedient of making use of forged bills of exchange for the purpose of raising money. The name of the pri soner's firm was upon every one of these bills, so that discovery could easily have taken place, and he was in structed that the prisoner had no intention to defraud any one, and that the forged bills were taken u p as they bec ame due, and the amount of the bill now in question was actually offered to the bankers, but they refused to receive it, or to allow the forged instrument to be given up. He added that the effect of the proceeding to raise money that was adopted by the prisoner had been successful in resuscitating the business, and if time had been allowed him, the prisoner would have paid the whole of the forged bills, and hare withdrawn the instruments from circulation. The learned Commissioner, in passing sentence, said that be was afraid that the practice alluded to by' Mr. Metcalfe was one that was carried on every day in the City of London ; and it came to this, that if • man was successful in bunnies by means of forging bills of exchange, he paid these when they were due, and there was an sad of the matter, and if he was unsuccessful the parties would lose their money. Such an excuse could not be listened to for a moment in a court of justice, and, in point of fact, it was no answer at all to • charge of this description. The prisoner had pleaded guilty to one i charge of forgery, and there were several other charges I of the same kind against him, and the leas: sentence that he could pass upon him under such circumstances was that he should be kept in penal servitude for five years. John Smith, 26, labourer, was indicted for unlawfully assaulting Henry Shuttle, • constable of the City of Lon. don police force, in the execution of his duty. The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Poland ; the pri soner was undefended. It appeared from the evidence that an the 27th of June the constable was on duty in Lower Thames-street. The prisoner was there, and was annoying a person of the name of Goodans. The constable told him be must not make a disturbance, and the prisoner then said, " If I cannot get at him I can get at you." He then struck the constable on the facie, and knocked him down and kicked him on the ankle, the consequence being that the policeman's collar bone was broken and his ankle dislocated, necessitating his attendance at the hospital for six weeks. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to eighteen months' imprisonment with hard labour. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. P►yne.) Rowland Smyth, 21, • respectable-looking man, described as a schoolmaster, a missionary, and of superior education, wasplaced in the dock , charged with steeling a watch and chain and other articles, of the value of 71., the property of Walter Watson, in a dwelling-house. It appeared that the prisoner got into company with the tor, who is a carpenter, living at 34, Upper Car le-street, and lodged in th e same house with him. The prisoner, who, by his style of address, quite justified the description in the calendar that he was "of superior edu cation," broke open the prosecutor', box and stole pro perty worth 71., which he pawned at Mr. Robinson's, Mortimer-street. When taken into custody by Mills, 74 8, the prisoner confessed his guilt, and said he was sorely temptixi. The prisoner, who pleaded guilty, addressed the court in a plausible tone, said he had lately been suffering from an attack of the yellow jaundice, and when in that state be scarcely knew what he was about. He was 'nay of the offence with which he stood charged and had oral to Day that he yielded to a sudden temptation, for wh ich he hoped God would forgive him. He had testimonials to his high character, and hoped his lordship would exercise mercy towards him. Mr. Payne inquired if he bad any witnesses heiwished examined, or would send for anyone I To which the prisoner replied in the negative. Constable 74 8 said the prisoner was an assistant to • missionary in Lissen-grove. He had not been convicted before. Mr. Payne said it was a bad offence robbing a man of his clothing. The sentence was twelve months' Imprisonment with herd labour. THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-40IISE. A respectably-dressedlM:B, who stated ;bat he was a solicitor, but refused his name and address, was charged with assaulting William Ainger, pollee constsble, No. 618. The constable stated that on Monday evening he was on duty in Upper Menial-street. At eight o'clock the de fendant went to the door of No. 153, and puUed the bell. After waiting about half a minute he crossed the street. The constable told bim that people resided on the pre mises, and that they would answer the door shortly. The defendant said, "Do you know who I am ; you are my servant—what is your name ?" The constable said if he wanted his number it was on his collar, and turned to the light. Defendant said, "Turn about." The constable turned his back to him and went away to Suffolk-lane. Defendant crossed to the door again, and somebody answered the bell ard spoke to him. Afterwards be went to the constable in Suffolk-lane end said, "I want your name." The constable replied , " I won't give you my name, you can take my number." Defendant said, "I demand your name." The oonstable thereupon walked away, but defendant followed him, stating that he would make him remember who he was, and that he would follow him till be obtained his name. The constable told him to go away and not annoy him, but defendant caught hold of him by the collar, repeating that he would have his name before he left him. The constable then took him into custody. The defendant said he certainly considered the officer was interfering with him, and he accordingly asked his name and number. He could not see the number by the gas light. The constable's statement was perfectly true and correct. The Lord Mayer—l suppose you were not sober? Defendant sod he had had some wine, but he was sober, and knew perfectly well what he was doing. The Lord Mayor—lt appears to me the offioer realised much provomtion. Defendant did not think he was so pressing as the officer stated. The Lord Mayor aid the annanoe was totally unpro voked, as the Meer had conducted himself with the greatest courtesy. The act allowed a penalty of 51. , but as it was only a slight attack, he should only Inflict a line of 20e. BOW-STREET. _ Mr. F. H. Lewis, tiebOriliTter, made the following ap plication to Mr. Flowers : Mr. Lewis said—l am saes you will allow me, as a member d she bar, to say a few words in my own personal A CORONER IN HIS COURT. The following paragraph, taken from the Lin coln, &anion( and Rutland Mercury, affords a sad illus tration of the condition of our lamming poor. As to moons, we do not know whether they are above the law, bat rarely there moat be some way of dealing with a person like Mr. Holdg►te. We shall be curious to see what steps are taken by the local magistracy At Yaddlethorpe, nee; Brigg, on the 6th instant, the steam thrashing machine belonging to Messrs. Foster and Lockwood, of blesaingham, was working on the farm of Mr. John Barley. A girl named ElizaStooks, aged 16, the daughter of John Stocks, labourer, of Yaddlethorpe, had been cutting bands upon the stage, and when they had just Welted a smart shower of rain drove the men to take shelter, and some loose straw was thrown over the drum hole and the steam partly shut off. The girl had forgotten her knife, and on returning for it it appears that she put her foot upon the straw, which immediately gave way, and her foot was caught by the drum, which dragged In her leg, smashing it to atoms and the machine was not stopped until it reached her thigh ; then it brought the works to a stand. Assistance was on the spot in a mo ment, but it was more than ten minutes before the poor suffering creature could be extricated. Every attention was shown to her by the neighbours, and messengers posted off for medical assistance, and on the arrival of Dr. Terreweat, of Meesingham ; Mr. George, of Kirton ; and Dr. Moron, of Brigg, the limb was amputated. Medical aid was, however, unavailing, and the poor sufferer died at three o'clock on the following morn ing. Notice of the event was given to Mr. Holdgete by Police-constable Itowbottom, of Ashby, and the coroner gave orders that the inquest should be held on Monday at twelve o'clock. On the Saturday afternoon, however, it was found that the corpse would not kecp, and the constable was sent with an urgent request for the coroner to hold the inquest as early as possible; but Mr. Holdgate still refused to hold it before twelve o'clock. The house in which the parents live fs a mere hovel, and their only dwelling room is not more than ten feet by twelve. The family consists of nine persons, who have to live in this room, where all their cooking, getting their meals, and other household transactions have to be done, and in this room, not more than five or six feet from the fire-place, the corpse was obliged to remain. The body became so offensive on Sun day morning that it was absolutely necessary to remove it ; and on the return of the six young women from bearing a daughter of Mr. Linley to the grave at Messing ham church, they proceeded to take the corpse to Bottes ford church, when part of the funeral service was read by the Rev. F. Moon, and the body then left for the inquest on the following morning. T p h r e op i so uiry was held at 12 o'clock, at the house of Mr. John Bar ,at Yaddlethorpe. The jury being sworn, they Bottesford church to view the body, returning again to Mr. Barley's to give their verdict. The jury consisted of Mr. Peacock, F.S.A., of Bottesford Manor (foreman) ; Mr. Godfrey Twi dale and Mr. Jollands, of Bottesford ; Mr. Charles Middleton, Mr. Straw, and Mr. Maw, of Yaddle thorpe ; Mr. T. Wakefield, Mr. Boult, Mr. IL Lock wood, Mr. Taylor, Mr. R. Hyde, and Mr..f. D. Powley, of Messingham. The coroner, on being remonstrated with in • perfectly becoming manner by the foreman, as to the cruelty, be, to the pour went. that his delay bad occa sioned, used most offensive terms, calling him a " natural fool," and using other improper language. The verdict of the jury was that Eliza Stocks, aged 16, " died from an accident caused by a steam thrashing machine ; that no blame whatever attaches to any one ; that the jury are of opinion, and recommend that women should nut be per nutted to work on the stage of the machines that they consider that the coroner acted in • most unfeeling manner in not holding the inquest at an earlier time; that they consider the coroner has conducted himself in • most im proper manner in using abusive language to the foreman of the said jury." CIVIL SERVICE SUPPLY ASSOCIATION (LIMITED). The half-yearly meeting of the members of this association was held yesterday afternoon, in the Lectern room of the Young Men's Christian Aseaciation, Alders gate-street; Mr. SMITH (of the Customs) in the chair. According to practice no report was submitted to the meeting by the committee, but the following statement of the working of the association during the past half-year had been circulated among the members : "During the six months ending 31st August, 1867, goods have been bought in the grocery department to the amount of 23,3431. 14a. 20., and sold to the amount of 23,5311. 17s.7d.,and the stook-in-trade wfuivalued on 31st August at 3,292/. 12s. 2d. In the hosiery department, rime its seta bliahment, goods have been bought to the amount of 3,7881. 25., and sold to the amount of 2,4111.05. 11 id., and tire value of the stock on the 31st August was 1,5931. 05..9d. The net profit trout both sources during the six months is 1,0391. 17s. Bd., making, with the profits from discount and interest, advertisements, &c., a total net profit of 1,6991. Os. lid. The working expenses during the half-year have been about 61 per cent. upon the busi ness done, being nearly 21 per cent. decrease, as compared with last year. The sums received for shares and tickets, from the commencement of the emaciation to the 31st of August last, amounted to 2,5981. Its. Bd., which has been placed to capital account. The West-end branch store was opened in April last, and has fully justified the expectations then formed of its usefulness to members. The amount of business dune there has been very nearly equal to that done at the City store during the correspond ing months of last year. It was expected that the open ing of the West-end branch would have relieved the store in Monkerell-street from the great pressure experienced there ; but the business has, on the contrary, considerably increased, and the committee has been compelled to take steps to provide further store aecommodation. A ware house has accordingly been taken in the Commereial-read, Lambeth, which its proposed shall serve as a central depot, and where all orders for goods intended to be for warded by parcels delivery will be made up. This ware house will not at present be open to members, and all orders and money for goods must be taken or sent to the City or Westend stores as heretofore. From the fore going facts it will appear that the progress made during the last six months has been most satisfactory, and the committee feels much pleasure in congratulating the members upon the remarkable emcees the association has already attained, and which, considering the short time it has been established, is believed to be quite unexampled among kindred societies." The only business to be transacted was the confirma tion of certain increases of salary which had been made by the committee during the half-year ; and these were un animously approved of. A suggestion was, indeed, made that some of the servants of the association—those em ployed at the Villiers-street establishment—were under paid, but • motion requesting the committee to consider the propriety of advancing the wages of those persons was rejected by • large majority. The confirmation of the proceedings of the committee was accompanied and fol owed by a conversational discussion upon several topics of interest to the members of the association. One gen tleman suggested that the committee should consider whether they could not contract with some firm to supply members upon presentation of their tickets with luncheon at reduced prices. This suggestion was received with a alight laugh, and was not taken up by any other speaker. Some complaint was made as to the delay that is frequently experienced in the making up of small packages ; but tha chairman explained that the committee anticipated that the open ing of the Lambeth warehouse, and the increase of the staff, would enable them in future to supply their cus tomers with promptitude and dovetail. He also intimated that the committee were anxious to enter into some arrangement by which they should send oat goods in their own carts, but at present they did not see their way to carrying out such an operation. Several members com plained that the tickets of the emaciation had been too lavishly distributed, and that its benefits were being ob tained by persons for whose advantage it was never in tended. Thus one gentleman stated that tickets were being used by inhabitants of Wertbourne-terrees, who had incomes of 8,0001. or 7,0001. • year, and that • countess had endeavoured to cheapen the liveries of bar servants by means of this association. Several gentlemen spoke in favour of limiting the lame of tickets ; but • member of the committee pointed oat that the increase of business directly benefited the association, because it diminished the working expenses. Allusion was made to • combination which had been entered into by some of the West-end tradesmen to crush the emaciation, and it was stated that, in consequence of this measure, Mesas. Peek, Frean, and Co., the biscuit makers, and Mesas. Colman, the mustard manufacturers, though willing to deal with the association, had been compelled to abstain from aw -1 plying it directly. The chairman, however, assured the members that the stores were never without • supply of the articles manufactured by those firms. The proceed ings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. FATAL ACCIDENT TO THE BEECHES FAMILY.- I One day last week, at Georgetown, Maas., • party of five young per ons were sailing on Pentuoket Pond, tLrree of whom, b y the sudden upsetting of the boat, wore drowned. The deceased were Albert Lewis, aged 20, son of Dr. Edward Beecher, of Galesburg, DL ; and Harriet Edith, aged 13, and Esther Lyman, aged 15, daughters of Rev. Charles Beecher, of Georgetown. The other two persons in the boat, whose lives were saved, were Eugene F., son of Dr. Edward Beecher, and gm, ; duets of the last class at Yale ; sad Lockwood Coffin, • cousin of the Beecham The young folks had set off in high spirits—fin eonsine ; and sailed till noon up and down Peutucket Pond, which is about a mile long, and half • mile wide. They had • flat bot• tamed boat, with • centre-board and quite • large sail. As they were tacking for a last sail up the pond, • flaw struck the sail and threw it across the boat, causing the children to fall to the other side. The boat filled and sank to the water's edge. They all held on and were not alarmed, thinking they would drift salare—only about 250 feet. But suddenly the mass floated out, and the boat turned over. All were thrown off except Lockwood Coffin, who got on the boat. Eugene swam part way to shore, end was °aught by the wrist just as be was going down. The others soon sank. Albert was • member of his father's church at Galesburg; Esther of her father's church in Georgetown ; and Harriet was soon to have united with the Wisc.—Neil York Indepoesieist. MARKETS.
