I 1' F THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 6, 1862. the public in general look at these matters with becoming seriousness. We all know that want, undermining the vitality of a population, means despondency, fever, death, and we are warned that that work has already begun. Surely this will drive us out of the path of mechanical routine. All that is wanted to arrest the plague is an organiza tion to collect that money which the public is not only willing but eager to contribute as soon as it is fairly appealed to. We must be pardoned for reiterating that system in charity is the great want of the hour. The payments must periodically recur, and they must be drawn from the whole country. In urging this we do not mean to ex tenuate the duty of those who are under special obligations to care for the distressed operatives. Under any circumstances the millowners will be required to make extreme efforts for this purpose. The eyes of the country are upon them, and they will be very fortunate, judging from experience, if at this distance they get credit for half of the sacrifices they make. Nor are they the only class who must consider themselves peculiarly bound to make extraordinary efforts in the cause. People are beginning to ask whether the great landed proprietors of the distressed districts have done all they mean to do. We should like to know more about what they have been doing since the Bridge water-house meeting, when great peers, whose pro perty has been doubled and trebled in value by the cotton industry, earned the praise of princely liberality by laying down less than the amount of four days' income. It is the deceitfulness of a lump sum which conceals the inadequacy of such benefactions. The institution of a weekly or monthly subscription would offer a starting point for new and more worthy efforts on the part of many who have sunk into the belief that they dis charged their obligations to the distressed people of Lancashire some months ago. At all events, it is what is called for by the exigencies of the time. We are glad to observe that this conviction is already gaining ground. Reports reach us from various places of plans set on foot for collecting money periodically by house to house visitation, as Mr. BADLY and Mr. GREENHILL are doing at and around Hampton Court. Lord LINDSAY and his father have set a good example to their class by undertaking to give 100/. a week for five months. Engagements like these, pledges of continuous supplies, whether by public asso ciations or by individuals, give a firm basis for the operations of those who administer relief, and enable them to act with greater energy and free dom. In order that such cooperation may become universal, let the Manchester Committee be made national ; let it draw the Lords-lieutenants of counties and the Mayors of cities and boroughs into its organization ; let them be invited to form local committees and establish personal communications with the cotton districts. In this way we may save from calamity those who, besides being of our own flesh and blood, have established new claims upon us by the honour which their virtuous endurance has done to the name of Englishman. LLTEST INTELIaGENOK. GREECE. Letters state that two envoys from the Provi sional Government of Athens have arrived at La Spezzia to obtain direct news of Garibaldi, and to express to the general the wishes felt by the Greek nation for his speedy recovery. The Semaphore of Marseilles says : The French Mediterranean fleet is stall at Toulon. From the satisfactory intelligence received from Athens, it is not probable that the fleet will quit that port so early as was expected ; the officers, however, who were absent on leave have been recalled, in order that they may be ready to leave at the fi•at notice. (RZOTIR'S TZLIGILAX.) [WAIN. MADRID, Nov. 5. It has been decided in an Extraordinary Council of Ministers that the Spanish government shall demand the punishment of the Americans who have violated the Spanish flag. The Queen has given an audience to the American Minister, who expressed his regret at what had taken place, and assured her Majesty that the American government had not authorised the acts of Captain Montgomery. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (fox on OWN 001 PARIS, WIDNIIBDAT ETWIO. M. de Persigny's short circular to the prefects on the occasion of M. Drouyn de Lhuya' appointment is made known to the French public by the lade ' pendance Belge, and is the principal theme of com ment in this evening's papers. The France, in one of M. do la Gueronniere's antithetical sentences, always devoid of meaning, says that the circular shows "that there is no change in the Emperor's policy, but that the direction of his policy is pro foundly modified!' With the true impulse of the "journal of hesitation" it goes on to say that whereas M Thouvenel, with a view to conciliation, press: d hard upon Rome, M. Drouyn de Lhuys, with the same conciliatory purpoee,ia now pressing hard upon Turin. It draws the conclusion conformable to the policy of Omphale which it is feared Hercules has given way to, that Rome will be preserved for the Pope. The Nationalitis of Turin professes to know that the new proposals of the French foreign minister are : a temporal administration of the pontifical provinces by municipal bodies ; Rome to be a neutral city, but the residence of an Italian governor, and, at the same time, of the Pope, re lieved from all the cares of temporal power ; s suitable revenue for the Pope and the Sacred Col lege ; and, moreover, another condition, which the Nation alifes does not yet know with sufficient cer tainty to mention. The Opinion Nationale says of this scheme that perhaps it is not authentic, but that in any case it must signally fail. The Pope would be deprived of his sovereignty, although pro bably retaining a nominal royal title ; the Italian governor would have nothing to govern, because the administration of Rome and the papal towns would be vested in the municipalities ; Rome would be, more than ever, the centre of intrigues. In short, to combat the scheme is to fight with windmill& The Pays says, in contradiction to the Prance of last night, that hitherto the French government has always called upon Rome in the first instance for an answer to its conciliatory propositions, and, therefore, the assertion of a simultaneous refusal having come from Turin, in answer to M. Thouve nel's last overture, is untrue. The France admits that the telegram from Turin analysing an article in the MO/13TVIIia Nazionale of the 4th betrays a very critical situation of Rattazzi's ministry. M. Drouyn de Lhuys' new despatch will probably not be made public till the opening of the Italian parliament. Colonel Feder, an aide-de-camp of Bing Otbo of Greet*, has arrived in Paris with a protest againbt his master's dethronement, and is goiug on to London. M. Rouland, the Minister of Public Instruction, yesterday Maned a very sensible decree, abolishing the absurd custom of examining candidates for the degree of doctor of medicine in the Latin language. It is not absurd, but on the contrary desirable, that medical students should learn as much Latin as reasonably possible ; but the great folly was that they were compelled to answer in a dead lan guage, with which, at best, they were imperfectly acquainted, questions on the art which they pro posed to practice at the risk of the lives of their fellow creatures. The test of such an examination should evidently depend upon substantial know ledge, unfettered by the difficulties of an arbitrary medium of expression. Henceforth, and only from Nov. 4, 1862, downwards, Molikre's Latin medical examinations will be read as satires of things of the past. A further considerable fall has occurred at the Bourse. The Rents declined 10c. for cash and 30c. for account, closing at 70fr. 60c. and 70fr. 66c. In other securities there was little change. Some of the railways were a trifle better. Au article in the Sport, of which the late Mr. Dillon was one of the principal contributors, is thus commented upon by the Figaro : The Sport lives in the atmosphere of the Jockey Club, of which it is the officious, not to say the official organ. That is evidently the explanation of its recent article (signed E. A F'RENCR VISIT TO GARIBALDI. The Turin correspondent of our esteemed con temporary Le Temp. relates the follow . ng conversation which he had with Garibaldi on the eccnsion of a recent visit to Speozia, as he gays, word for word : " I am thankful to you," said Garibaldi, " for be lieving that there is no one whose visit I would at this moment receive with more delight than that of a Frenchman. I should be strangely forgetful of the history of the French people were I to suppose that it could see an enemy in any one who fights for the liberty of his country, wherever that country may be. I would be sorry it should be considered in France that it is through a paltry feeling of national jealousy that I have grieved to find my native province a French department. I believe—or rather, lam certain—that, in the future, we are to strive for mutual approximation ; frontiers are nothing ; all mankind have one common country—liberty. But to attain and secure universal liberty, every nationality must indi vidually acquire the full possession and the unrestricted exercise of that liberty ; and it is on this account that 1 have seen with sorrow the withdrawal of Nice from Italian unity. I would not wish it should be be lieved in France that, at any period of my life, 1 have desired to come in collision with the soldiers of France. I wish France could hear what I now say to you, and I sak of you to tell it at least to your friends." I have already, I replied, told it, actuated by an instinctive feeling which is founded on the nobleness of your character. But I will now tell it w agitin WI more authoritatively. We then talked of his health. I told him how happy I was that the fears entertained at Turin were exagge rated, or at least that his present state was so different from that which had given rise to them. (It did not in the least annoy him to speak of those fears. He either reads himself, or listens to others reading, a great number of newspapers ; and hence he knows almost every thing which is published regarding him.) He smiled the happy smile of invalids who c►tch the glimpse of a speedy cure. It is clear that he looks forward to such a cure that be has some kind of presentiment that it will take place. I took leave:of him, bringing away, in my soul, a little of that confidence, and an equal hopefulness regarding the !nture of Italy, to which his life is so neosasary. THE MEDITERRANEAN. (nox ocra olm MALTA, Oct. 31. Her Majesty's ship Algiers arrived from Patras and Corfu on the 28th. Those on board speak of the late revolution in Greece as a very tame affair ; but the people were so determined to get rid of Otho that there was not dissentient voice. The red flag was hoisted instead of the Greek, with the whole of the Greeks rejoicing at the change. On the King and Queen quitting the Greek man-of-war they had been using as their yacht, the Bailors instantly struck the Greek flag and hoisted the red, and their Majesties embarked on board her Majesty's ship Scylla, and started for Corfu and Trieste. On passing Zelda the inhabitants of that island wished to illuminate the town on the happy event. It appears that Otho was at last quite as glad to get away from Greece as the Greeks were in get ting quit of him. Oa the 30th the Alacrity arrived from the lonian Islands ; also the Amphion—the latter will proceed in a day or two to England, to be paid off ; also the Algiers. The Edgar, with the (leg of Rear-Admiral Daces, arrived the same day. Early on the morning of the 30th, the royal yacht Osborne, accompanied by her Majesty's ship Doris, arrived. Since leaving Marseilles the yacht, with her royal passengers, his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, their Royal High nesses the Prince and Princess of Prussia, and suites, had visitedPslermo and Tunis. They telegraphedfrom Marseilles their intention of visiting Palermo, but the telegram arrived at Palermo some time after them. At Tunis the Bey was Very attentive; sent state carriages for them, gave the Prince of Wales and the Prince of Prussia each his highest order of knighthood set in diamonds, and a sword and a horse, and greatly praised the Princess for her personal attractions. On leaving Tunis the yacht experienced rough weather, and damaged her machinery. Fortunately, by tee foresight of the captain of the Osborne, the Doris was in company, and took the yacht in tow. The royal party wished to visit some antiquities on the west side of Sicily, but from the state of the weather it was thought more prudent to proceed direct to Malta. On the arrival of the yacht, his Excellency the Governor, Lady Le Merchant, the admiral and captains of the men-of war in port, went on board to pay their respects. Guards of honour were in attendance to receive their Royal Highnesses at 10 a.m., but were dismissed, their Royal Highnesses wishing to keep strictly private. Twelve o'clock is the almost universal dinner hour in Malta, and at that hour the streets are generally deserted for soup and macaroni, and this was the hour chosen by the royal party to land and drive to the palace, which they suc ceeded in doing before much of a crowd could collect. The carriage in which their Royal Highnesses rode was surrounded by mounted police, the Prince and Princes!' of Prussia sitting at the back, and his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales being on the front seat with his back to the bona. Their Royal Highnesses took up their abode at the palace, the governor and family having gone to Din ning's Hotel. The Maltese have paid great respect to their Royal Highnesses wishes, and have not crowded round them, but allowed them to move about the town without noticing them in any obtrusive manner; and this also saved their money, which is an object, now the commerce of the island is declining. The yacht, after repairing damages, will proceed to- morrow evening (let November) to Syracuse, Catania, Mes sina, Naples, and Civits Vecchia. On the 9th Nov., the Prince's birthday, he will dine on board the Osborne. Grand preparations to do honour to the event have already commenced on board, and the sailors are not • little proud of having the Prince to dine with them on his attaining his majority. The yacht, after landing their Royal Highnesses, will re turn to Malta about the 12th November, to complete her repairs. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wale;'s present intention is to leave Marseilles for England about the 22nd of November. _ Oa the 30th their Royal Highnesses dined at the Palace, the governor and colonels of regiments dining with them, and in the evening heads of departments were invited to meet them. 31st.

The circus at Saragossa has just been the scene of a sanguinary drama. On Sunday the place was fall, and two toreadors of secondary rank, but very popular as natives of the city, named Joaquin Gil and Perez, made the cus tomary salute and offered to kill the bulls in honour 'of the president and the assembly. The first animal was cleverly killed by Perez ; the second was a Portuguese animal, very vicious, cunning, and strong. He received the fatal blow from Gil, but at the same moment he tossed the unhappy man into the air, received him upon his horns, which entered deep into the body, and threw him to the ground 'emelt:ea, and then fell dead by the side of his victim. The third ball was also a Portuguese. The toreadors were under a state of terror difficult to describe. The picadors would scarcely touch him. Fierce in the middle of the arena, he seemed to defy the banderilleros, who at great risk fixed two or three firebrands to his neck, in order to excite him. From pain and noise the bull became furious. The task of killing him fell to Perez, who advanced with hesi tation, and seemed only able to strike feebly with his sword. The President called to him, and pressed to have the bull's legs cut with the demi-lune (an immense scythe fixed on a pole), but Perez refused this proposition, which is considered to involve disgrace to a toreador. He returned to the fight. The bull threw See , upon him ;in vain he cast at it the mulatto in red cloth ; the boll paid no attention to it and followed him. But he seized the barriers, and in leaping over it threw his sword at the ba'l'e front. It struck the beast in the face, and by a strange fatality re bounded and penetrated the thigh of the poor toreador, cutting it to the bone. The blood run in torrents from an open artery. The unhappy man was carried and the demi lune was then employed. Two bind legs of the beast were cut ; but even then upon its stumps it appeared so terrible that no one dared approach it. The demi•lune was again brought, and one of the front legs cut off. The beast fell to the ground, and a stroke from the dagger fioished him. Will it be believed that even after this the public were not satisfied, and demanded the rest of the sport, and that the authorities were obliged to give them tickets for the next exhibition? The toreador Gil was buried on Tuesday; the other man is in a dangerous state, and amputation is to be trici when be seems strong enough to bear it. .-(THIS DAY.) 6. $ A.m. ebt €ourt. - -- a -- OSBORNE, Nov. 5. The Queen drove out yesterday, attended by Lady Churchill and Lord Charles Fitz Roy. An adjourned meeting of the Council of the Duchy of Cornwall was held yesterday, at the Duchy-office, Bucking ham-gate, St. James's-park. The meeting was further adjourned until to-morrow (this clay). Despatches wereiroceived yesterday at the Colonial-office from the Governor of Malta and the Lord Hugh Commis sioner of the lonian Islands. Despatches were sent to the Governors of the Cape of Good Hope, Natal, and St. Helena. THE MAJORITY OF THE PRINCE OF WALES.—A meeting convened by the Mayor of Birmingham was held in the committee-room of the Town-hall yesterday, at neon, "to determine upon the measures to be taken for celebrating the attainment of his majority by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales." The Mayor (who presided) suggested a dinner in Biogley Hall to 2,000 poor people. Mr. T. P. Salt thought a free concert should he included ; and Mr. Jacob Phillips suggested that a treat should be provided for the whole of the pupils of the different charity schools in the town. The Rev. Dr. Miller thought that such a manifes tation would very inadequately represent the loyalty of the town. He thought the celebration should include not only the humbler but the middle and the wealthy classes, and suggested, as the time for preparation was so short, it should be deferred till the celebration of the Prince's marriage. Mr. Thomas Lloyd and Mr. John Lowe also suggested that the celebration should be postponed till the marriage, and the general opinion of the meeting being in favour of such a course, the following resolution, proposed by Mr. John Lowe, and seconded by Mr. Salt, was carried unanimously :—"That notwithstanding it is most desirable that the attainment of his majority by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales should be duly celebrated in this bo rough, this meeting is of opinion that the short space of time will not permit of • demonstration on that occasion in any degree adequate to express the loyal feelings of the in. habitants ; and therefore its desirable that any proceedings in the matter should be deferred till the Prince's marriage, so that an opportunity may be given to all classes to express their loyalty and joy." It was afterwards resolved, " That the gentlemen present desire to express their readiness to 00-operate with the chief magistrate of this borough on that auspicious occasion." The proceedings then terminated. THE ACCIDENT TO THE ROYAL YACHT OSBORNE. By some mistake no vessel was ordered to attend the Royal Yacht on her voyage, and by the merest chance the Doris met her at Palermo, when the captain of the yacht suggested that she should accompany them in case of accident, and luckily sbe did, for the yacht broke down off Cape Bon, at the commencement of • gale, one of her paddle-wheels becoming perfectly melees.

Um LONDON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER G. Ma. COBDEN has spoken the thoughts of many minds in saying that the relief of the distress in the cotton districts mast at once and henceforward be considered a national work, and have an organization corresponding to its magnitude. He is no doubt right, too, in recommending the extension and transformation of the Central Relief Committee which sits at Manchester as the best means of attaining that object. Such a measure would give the greatest increase of efficiency with the least possible change. What is now wanted is a central committee, whose hands shall reach the uttermost parts of the empire, and on whose work public attention will be concen trated. The most important part of the business of the leading committees now active consists in the collection of funds, their share in the actual administration of relief being almost confined to supervising the work of local bodies. When the necessity of supplying extraneous help to Lancashire first became manifest, no one could foresee with certainty the extent either of the calamity, or of the aid which the country would be called to render. The Mansion-house Fund, the Bridgewater-house Committee, and the Man chester Committee answered very well at first, and still better when the two last were united. But they were formed to deal with the evil in its earlier and less menacing proportions, and they have been overtaken by their work. Their origin and constitution seemed to give an amateur and local character to their efforts. A good deal of money has been sent to the Mansion-house, and much more would have been sent there if Alderman Cusirr had not esta blished a reputation as the most incompetent ad ministrator ever lodged in the City Palace. But the fussy incapacity displayed in the management of the Indian Famine Fund and the PRINCE CON- Som. Memorial Fund has been enough to over come the force of habit which naturally leads • Londoner to the Lord Mayor. The Central Com mittee has, however, shown real administrative ability, a fact which is recognised in the proposal to extend its usefulness. We have had many instances of wide-spread dis tress in England, but never before anything Itce this. The case is altogether unique, and must be met by extraordinary remedies. The superfluous wealth thrown off by individuals to relieve con science, indulge sentiment, or procure a place in the published subscription Hat, will not now suffice. Here is a mighty work to be done ; no mere grand demonstration of benevolence, but a dreadful evil to be encountered. Adequately to deal with it, we must take it in hand on principle, and carry it out upon an intelligent and comprehensive system. And truly it should be a matter of thankfulness to us all that, if so taken up, the work, great as it is, may be accomplished easily. The sums hitherto subscribed are large iu comparison with what has been done on former occasions, and undoubtedly represent much generous effort; but we hope we shall not be misunderstood when we say that they bear as small a proportion to the means of the classes of English society in the enjoyment of wealth and competence as they do to the distress to be relieved. It is stated that the loss to the operatives through the cessation of wages is at the rate of from 136,0001. to 150,0001. a week, WEATHER REPORT. THCRSDAY, NOTE MI N. & 8. 1 W. r. X. C. L 11.

The Gazette de PEtoile announces that the proving cial diets of Prussia are convoked for the 16th of November, and stake that political manifestations have not yet ceascd in Berlin. On the 2nd of November about 6,000 persona, chiefly belonging to the working classes, assembled in that city, and members of the Leipzic committee of workmen took part in the proceedings. M. Schultze-Delitsch, a deputy, made a speech to show that at present Prussia should attend chiefly to what concerns the internal affairs of the kingdom. This speech was greatly applauded, but the assembly proceeded no further in the matter. It was decided that the congress of workmen which was to be held at Berlin should be indefinitely adjourned, that the central committee should be dissolved and replaced by committees of districts, and that the congress should he held at Leipzic, under the direction of a committee of that city. The Courrier de l' Ain mentions the following curious fact. At Thourette, in that department, the cure, who is now nearly eighty years of age, has always insisted , for the last thirty years, that the parents of every child be baptised should plant a fruit-tree of some kind or other. The result is that this commune, which was formerly very unproductive, now presents the appearance of an immense orchard.

Moon in the chair), to consider the present position of the company and the proposition of Mr. Wrigley and Mr. Gartaide for advancing its interests., and of dividing the line for its better manage ment and working into 10 or 12 different sections. A dis curaion took place with closed doors, occupying from 12 until 4 o'clock. There were about fifty shareholders preempt, and the proceedings were adjourned to this day, when another deputation of proprietors will wait on the directors for the consideration of the same question, and of other matters connected with the management. MIDNIGHT MEETING MovEmeNr.—On Tuesday evening, about 11 o'clock, from 150 to 200 fallen women, chiefly from the Blackfriars, Waterloo-road, and Southwark districts, assembled at Dunn's Lecture Hall. Newington. causeway, on the invitation of the friends of the midnight meeting movement ; and after partaking of • plentiful repast provided for them, they were addressed by various gentlemen present. Their demeanour was quiet and be coming, and they listened attentively to the exhortations of the promoters of the gathering, * deep emotion being occasionally manifested by some among them who had evi dently been trained in Sunday achools, or under the bilk ence of Christian parents. Twelve of these unhappy creatures have been already provided for, and four meetings . fe' -eeeks, at which be- THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. Anyone who looked up at the sky yesterday might form a tolerably close idea of what would be the attendance at the Exhibition. It was indeed sparse, and Mr. Godfrey and his band discoursed their " most excellent music" to an exceedingly select audience. However, people who bad huffi ness, that is to say, those who meant to purchase, came, and a very excellent business was done. The foreign exhibitors are quite elate, and say that, with the exception of the very heavy goods, they will have nothing to carry away. 'rheae is this difference, however, between them and the British exhibitors, that whilst the latter are selling at greatly reduced prices, MM. des Strangers consider themselves justified in putting on high prices, of which one element is the value of the article, and another the fact of its being a memorial of the Exhibition. The great majority of the British exhibitors made their.goods especially for the Ex hibition, and are anxious to dispose of them before I the close. The number of visitors at the Exhibition to-day was 5,000. LONDON MECHANICS INSTITUTE. Last evening the distribution of prizes and cer tificates granted by the Society of Arts to members of this institution, under the competitive examination system, took place in the theatre, Southampton-buildings. Mr. HARRY CHESTER, vice.president of the Society of Arts, presided, and opened the proceedings with an address, in which, as one who had had much to do with the origina tion of the competitive examination scheme, congratulated the members of the London Mechanics Institute upon the results they had each year achieved, and upon the promos in the prosperity of the institution, which bad no doubt been largely contributed to by those results. During the last four years, of 48 candidates sent up to the examiners front the institute, 47 had primed, one only having failed ; and during the past three years, of 39 candidates sent up, all had paned and obtained certificates. This, he submitted, MA a most satisfactory proof of the kind of education afforded. (Hear, hear.) The great majority of those who were now about to receive certificates had been successful in one or more branches of knowledge in the examinations of previous years, and one of them, Mr. Macdonald, who now took first class certificates in book-keeping and pray tical mechanics, together with a second class certificate in theoretic mechanics, with money prizes of 51. and 21., had been nominated by the council of the Society of Arts for • clerkship in the Educational department of the Privy CounciL The chairman dwelt at some length upon the ad. vantage of the competitive system in wonetion with those popular educational establishments which, he said, provided for the middle and lower classes advantages similar to those which the universities conferred upon the nigh born and the wealthy. He added, that shortly before the death of the Prime Consort his royal highness, at his suggestion, pro mised a prize of twenty-five guinea' each year to the candi date who obtained the greatest number of certificates. Of course that prize had been awarded and paid in respect to the last examination, and be was happy to say that her Majesty had intimat ed her intention of continuing it. The following is the list of the candidates, and of the certificates obtained :—Alf red Thomas Rees, botany 3rd class ; Frederick Aumonier, French, 2nd ; Henry Teller, history, 2nd; W. Stewart, arithmetic, 2nd, book-keeping. 2nd ; J. IL Howard, French, 3rd ; W. L. Raisin, German, 3rd 11. E. G. Kirk, history, '2nd; W. Waters, history, 3rd; G. M.

This shocking accident, which resulted in the death of one person. a Mid Dickinson. and the injury of Dearly every paseenger in the passenger train with which the cattle train came into collision at the Moulton Station. on the Richmond branch of the North Eastern Railway, was fully investigated on Tuesday by a coroner's jury. A man named Hall, who is from Westmoreland, was fearfully crushed ; and although he presents but slight appearance of injury, he endures much internal pain, and fears are entertained lest the intestines may have been ruptured in such a manner as ultimately to mud his death. Mn. Prest, the wife of a farmer at North Cowton, in the North Riding, was shockingly mutilated about the face, and received injury to her legs. She was taken home on a stretcher, and now lies in a dangerous state. Mr. W. Robinson, formerly mayor of Richmond, where he carries on the profession of a solicitor, and who until recently was well known in sporting circles for the quality of his racing stud, was dreadfully cut about the face. Mr. Severs, a young man, and many women were likewise hurt. The driver of tho passenger train, which at the moment of the collision wee standing taking up passengers at Moulton, was pitched head foremost on to some iron rails, and bled pro. tamely. The principal cause of the accident, am appeared from the inquiry, was the dense impenetrable fog which prevailed, but even with this untoward circumstance the accident would not have occurred had ordinary caution been used. The jury found that the accident was the re. snit of grass negligence, which negligence had caused the death of the deceased. James Dixon, the driver, Robert Atkinson, the guard, and Mr. Drown, the Scorton station. master, were then committed in the usual way to take their trial at the ensuing assizes for the county. Some of • the Shropshire landlords have taken offence at the freedom with which the tenant farmers have condemned Sir Baldwin Leighton's Gamo Bill, and two landlords bate withdrawn their names from the lists of the Ludlow Agricultural Society. The prime mover in the con demnation of the Came Lew Bill was Mr. Matthew Evans, a tenant farmer ; but he seems to be well supported by his agricultural brethren, who, at a meeting held on Moods), passed a resolution that "no studied insult to . the gentle. men" was intended by Mr. Evans, or the ;farmem, in the remarks they made on the obnoxiou► MR. DEEDES, M.P., AND THE REPRESENTATION OF EAST KENT.—For some time a rumour has been in cir culation that it is the intention of Mr. Ihedes at the rime of the present parliament to retire from the representation of the Eastern Division of the county of Kent—a post which he has occupied almost without interruption since the retirement of Sir E. Knatchball in 1845. Accompany ing that report was a further rumour that the retirement of the hon. gentleman would be in some measure forced upon him by difficulties in which he had become involved. At a meeting which has just been held at Sittingbourne, the hon. gentleman referred at sonic length to the state manta which had been made. lie said the paragraph which had gained currency in reference to his intention to retire from the honourable post he now filled had appeared with out his sanction, authonty, or knowledge. Ile also denied the truth of a rumour which, he was informed, bad been spread abroad, to the effect that he was a oonf.nned gambler. lie never bet on Lone. racing, and the extent of hiagambling was, be said, sixpenny points at whist.
