Fox many a month put, under the name of Conservative Reaction, a mysterious Veiled Prophet , has been enthusiastically proclaimed as the new leader of the nation's worship. All creeds of pro gram, all belief in human improvement, thrown amide, we have been bidden to bow down before this dire incarnation of the principle that everything is already perfect, and that the enjoyment of the pre sent hour is the sole lesson the wisdom of this world teaches. No wonder that to the standard of such a sect many a recruit should flock ; no wonder that the high priests of a faith that promises the gift of supreme ease to all who already have the means of enjoyment, should gather round them an eager host pledged to its maintenance and exten sion. It had charms, indeed, even to those who yielded not wholly to its seductions, and it drew to its side, by the very vagueness of its doctrines, whoever was wearied with thinking, and by its glorification of the pre sent, whoever was frightened to face the issues of an uncertain future. But happily for us, the moment at which the features of the new divi nity are disclosed in their true expression has not, as in the Eastern legend, been deferred till the banquet of death, when all has been dared and lost by its votaries, and the knowledge of the hatefulness of their idol can scarce add a pang to their despair. Already the assurance of victory and the intoxication of triumph have persuaded the withdrawal of the tissue of silver gauze which con cealed the form of the Prophet, and we have caught a glimpse of the object of our rash adora tion. Now we know that conservation of our institutions is only the specious name for the ex tension of class privilege. Now we know that the lull in which our senses have been steeped has been wrought that we might tamely suffer the spo liation of our liberties. Now we see that those who have arrogated to themselves the title of our guides and chiefs, under pretence that they alone could save from revolution and violence all that we hold dear, are ready to overturn the constitu tion if thus they can add but a little to their own selfish enjoyment& All this we bays learn;,,] nom tnajoritiea who day after day carry the Poaching Bill by acclamation through the House of Commons, and whom from our hearts we thank that they teach us in good time whither we have been allowing ourselves to drift. There is indeed no concealment now. Mr. HENLEY and Lord STANLEY, an aged leader and the youthful hope of the party, are groaned and hooted down, and their arguments, warnings, and entreaties contemptuously trampled under foot by the mad violence of their followers. In vain did the Member for Oxfordshire plead that the funda mental principles of the constitution ought not to be broken through even though the object was the apprehension of • poacher. In vain did the heir of the House of DERBY beseech that the gen tlemen of England would not, with an autumn of anxiety and dread before them, with a people famishing by inches around them, spend their last moments of deliberation in consulting for their own personal amusements. The Session is not to be wholly vain. It has passed and left nothing by which it will be remembered for good. The indif ference of members has not allowed any great measure of improvement even to be proposed. But this listlessness vanishes when the recreations of members are brought in question. Then it is impossible for them to restrain within the bounds of decency their furious energy. Even the discipline of party, by which their victories have been hitherto secured, is set at nought in their excitement. If England were conquered by a fresh Norman invasion, and given over to be sacked by the invaders, there could not be leas consideration of aught but personal gratification. We should look with dismay on the scene, did we not rest in the full assurance that the sooner and the more completely thsee riotous and reckless men of pleasure display their true character and motives, the sooner they will be reduced to the true measure of their power. For this occasion will serve as a touchstone for not merely the avowed Conservatives. The pro fessing Liberals, by whom we have so long sub mitted to be led, are discriminated as accurately by this fortunate test. Sir Ososos GREY has time after time risen in the House of Commons to urge that it is unfitting that the police force paid by the public should be turned into night watchers for the landlords—that it is contrary to legal principle to permit any man to be seized without warrant on the mere suspicion of • policeman—that it is inhuman to direct the severity of the law against depredators of property which is purposely left exposed, and that it is monstrous to ask us to stretch our constitutional maxims to provide a remedy for evils which originate in the childish vanity of a few individuals. But Sir GRoans GREY has found but thirty or forty supporters in THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING JULY 2i, 1862. the whole House. Where were the other mem bers of the Government t Except Mr. Mti.waa GIBBON, not a single member of the Cabinet was present, and his vote in support of his colleague was neutralized by that of Sir ROBERT PEEL, who went into the opposite lobby. Now this is no light question on which Government could afford to be indifferent. The Home Szcarrutv is the Minister charged with the preservation of the peace of the country, with the direction of the police, and with the superintendence of the administration of j ustiow Here, on a question intimately affecting all these func tions, he was surely entitled to the support of the Ministry of which he is a member. He stated his opinion that in everyone of these de partments the nation would suffer injury if this Bill should pass, and yet Government not only makes no effort to oppose it, but does not take the trouble to come down to vote against it, and even allows some of its subordinates to give it sup port. This is indifferentism with a vengeance. But in this, too, there is perhaps matter for congratulation. We have ascertained at last that Lord Psutzawron's Ministry is not only deter mined not to go forward, but is perfectly ready to go backward. We know now that its chiefs are . less liberal than Mr. HENLEY and Lord STANLEY, that they are quite willing to submit the Civis Romans to the enactment, as the former well put it, of an Arms Bill in England, and to legalize the search, by a common constable, of the person of man or woman found out of doors after dark, provided they can thus secure the better stocking of the preserves of Broadlands, or of the moors of Mr. Bess, where, we are told, the PREMIER is to enjoy this year his well-earned autumnal repose. Such is the knowledge we have gained; the time to im prove it will speedily come. THE untoward and menacing rumour to which the Patric of last evening gave a sinister promi nence among its "Latest News," must be received with all the suspicion and distrust which any semi official journal of the French Empire, no less than the Muniteur itself, so well deserves. In what degree the Pattie is a semi-official organ, or whose inspirations among the many rival candidates for Imperial favour it may be supposed to follow, we are not inclined to investigate. There is, we are aware, .sort of MAiwrznon influence, which, in the absence of the EMPEROR at Vichy, may be nervously busy at St. Cloud. There is the more generous PERSIGNY influence, but M. DE Pea- SIONY is, we believe, taking the waters somewhere out of reach of the cares of State ; there is the WALEWSKI influence, the THOUVENEL influence, the LA Guntitonnivaz influence, and the DR MORNY influence ; and the PALM; ROYAL influence. Among these the Papal party counts its agents, and the cause of Italy its advocates. But the nett result of all is a systematic mystification, an habitual insincerity, a passion for duplicity for its own sake. The Pattie once upon a time was a warm friend of Italy—in the sense of subserviency to France ; now it is the ardent champion of the temporal power of the POPE. For the Szcorro EMPIRE, Italy is at once a footstool and a wsshpot. The thought of an united Italy really independent and complete in ita unity has never yet entered into the Imperial counsels, and the consequence of a policy wonderfully adroit and versatile is, that between the Papacy despoiled and Italy deceived the Emperor of the FRENCH has lost the advantages of a ten years' league with the priests, and by playing false to the proclama tion of Milan has failed to make amends through the glorious sacrifices of Magenta and Solferino for the disgraceful victories of the Roman expedition in 1849. Consistent bad faith is fitly rewarded with the hatred and contempt of an exasperated clergy, and a deluded nation. At Milan, in 1859, the Emperor of the FRENCH was paying compli ments, by proxy, to GARIBALDI, and even anxious for an interview with that redoubtable Chief of the Cacciatori, whose valour, whether as ally or enemy, French soldiers had learned to respect. But odiese quern laseris is true of Empe rors who betray towards patriots who remember. There is no love lost between the man who de fended Rome in 1849 and the man who took away his birthplace by way of payment for the Peace of Villafranca. Under these circumstances, we may be sure that when the Patric, under whatever dictation, reports that GARIBALDI is Contemplating a descent on the nomad + •t at the head of 6,000 Volunteers, that six steam-frigates have been sent to intercept him at sea, and troops despatched to the frontier to seize him when he lands, the wish of the Patric is father to the report of such a movement. That the rumour ia, for the present at least, a fiction, we earnestly hope and trust ; the result of any chance collision between Italian Volunteers and French troops could in no case be other than disastrous to Italy. The heart of Liberal France, it is true, beats still wish GARIBALDI, as it did in the ill-omened summer of '49 ; but if Republican France cannot forge. that PAUL DE FLorrz died a soldier's death by the side of GARIBALDI, Imperialist France—witness Mexico—prefers the glory of unrighteous arms to all considerations of the justice of a cause. GARIBALDI'S known attachment to the KING would not permit him to compromise the relations of the Government with the K ifro's nearest Ally, and with other friendly Powers. In spite of the Patric, we are persuaded that GARIBALDI will bear and for bear yet awhile ; though we are far from being convinced that the whole danger of hopes deferred, and of expectations again and again excited and deceived, is for Italy ; or that GARIBALDI, with Italy and the Revolution at his back, will ever sink to be a consenting and contented dupe. REGISTRATION OF TIMM (111ELA1fD).—A parlia mentary return, issued this morning, gives the followiog as the number of conveyances, &c., by the Encumbered Es tates Commissioners registered :-1850, 729 ; 19.51, 827 ; 1852, 1,172; 1853, 1,158 ; 1854, 817 ; 1855, 960; 1856, 1,095;1857,928; 1858, 1,039 ;1859, 40 ;1860, 15 ;1861, 7; 1862, to inns 1, 2 : totals, 8, 289.

The First and Second Legis lative Chambers, the whole of the military officers in the capital, the clergy, the ministers of state, and other authorities also had the honour to be received in the course of the week, in order that they might express their con gratulations to their royal highnesses. The evangelical clergy also presented a very beautiful bible, which was very graciously received by the prince and prinoess. The pro vincial capital and the University of Giessen have sent de putations, the first of which, in the name of the town, pre sented an elegant sad richly ornamented dressitg-case,and at the same time expressed the wish that their royal highnesses would soon honour the town of Oberhesee with a visit ; the second deputation expressed the hearty congratulations of the university. The prince and princess received the deputations and addresses most kindly, and suitable replies were returned to each.

This gentle man is well known to the profession by his contributions to the advancement of anatomical and physiological science. A determined season ticket holder has summoned all the royal commissioners to the county court at Brampton, on the 6th of August, to recover from them the sum of one penny, charged for the care of his umbrella while the owner was in the picture galleries. The commissioners have accepted the summons. The presentation of the Victoria Cross to William Odgers, captain's coxswain of her Majesty's ship Cambridge, for conspicuous and daring bravery at the storming of a pah in New Zealand, on the 28th of March, 1860, took place yesterday, in the government parade ground, Davenport.

The votes of Mr. Bass, M. P., in favour of the Night Poaching Bill, have given much dissatisfaction to his constituents, and the Derby Reporl•r of to-day publishes two long letters which the boo. gentleman has felt it necee eery to write io explanation of his views. . _ _ . At Sligo Assizes, before Mr. Justice O'Brien, the case of Somers v. Reilly has been tried. The action was for slander, the words imputed being that " Somers was a traitor, and had sold the borough to Francis Macdonogh for hard cash." The jury, after a lengthened investigation, found for the plaintiff, with lid. damages, and 6d. costa. The Rochdale guardians, at a special meeting held yesterday, adopted a memorial to parliament, uking for powers to enable the guardians, under the circumstances of the present distress, to borrow money, which should be repaid in a sedum of years. The proposer of the resolution Mated We opinion that the act of Elizabeth would not sufficiently meet the crisis. According to reports from the French watering places there are much fewer visitors than last year, owing, it is supposed, to the unseasonable weather. AU complain of deserted tables d'htite and empty houses. There are also fewer visitors at Baden than usual ; whilst Homburg, the most frequented of summer places of amusement, is any thing but full. The London Ethibition is supposed to have attracted many continental tourists this year to England. The Vienna journals state that the ex-King of Naples has just purchased near the Austrian capital for 196,000 fr. the place of amusement called the " New World." The works neoessary to convert it into a comfortable villa are to be commenced in a few days, sad. according to the orders given, it is to be completed by the Ist of January, 1863. NEW ROYAL MAUSOLEUM AT WINDSOR. —The mausoleum, now in the course of erection in the royal grounds, Frogmore, and which is intended to receive the remains of the late Prince Consort, is situated about EX) yards from that of the late Duchess of Kent. A more secluded spot could not have been selected, the site being surrounded by many different species of flowering shrubs and trees of a large growth, while close by is a bemitiful specimen of the deciduous cypress, the dark st•adcs of which will contrast well with the stones of the tomb. The building is being erected from the designs and under the superintendence of Mr. A. J. Humbert, the architect, and consists of a central cell with four transepts branching north, south, east, and west, with a porch adjoining the western transept. The whole floor is supported by brick vaults of massive work, which at the same time form chambers, with loopholes for the pur poses of ventilation and the preventiou of damp rising to the superstructure. They are entered by a small flight of 1 stone steps. The central cell will be lighted by three light' , semiercular-headed windows in the clerestory, which will be externally decorated with Aberdeen granite shafts and heads. The copper roof of the central cell (which is octa gonal on plan) rime from the wall heads to the apex with a Het pitch in the manner of an Italian campanile, and will be surmounted with • gilt cross. Under this roof will be the sarcophagus for the remains of the Prince Consort. The reclining statue of the Prince will be executed by Barun Marochetti. The building is in the Italian style, reminding one of the campanili at Pim. As the erection stands upon • base of concrete 6ft. in thickness, there is a very little probability that the sym metry of the mausoleum will be marred by settlements. The erection, which is 70ft. in length and the name in height, will be adorned by several statues. The foundation stone, which was laid by her Majesty the Queen, bears the follow ing inscription , ' The foundation stone of this building, erected by Queen Victoria in pions remembrance of her great and good husband, was laid by her on the 15th day of Yareb. A.D. 1862. 'Blessed are they that sleep in the Lord.' •••••••••• RAILWAY AND PUBLIC COMPANII9 IN PARLIA ICENT.—YestenIAy, in committee of the Lords, the case for the promoters of the Great Western Company's Ellesmere sad Otweetry line was cautioned, Mr. °nelson, tragic manager, and Mr. Fowler, the engineer, being examined at eons 4rable length, the committee requesting the counsel not to encumber the case with cumulative evidenre. Mr. Morley, engineer for the millowners, was examined in the committee of the Commons against the Mersey, lrwell, and Weaver Navigations. On Saturday lent the Rev. William Gale Town ley was instituted to the rectory of Upwen, Bt. Peter's, in Norfolk, on the presentation of Medea Watson Townley, of Folbourn, in the comity of Cambridge, Esq., and the said Rev. William Gale Townley. On the lame day the Rev. William Hilton flutobieson wee instituted to the rectory of Welniry, in the same °misty, on the presentation of the said C harl es Watson Townley and William Gale Townley. And on the same day the Rev. Robert Sayers, 8.A., was collated to the vicarage of Houghton, in Norfolk, in the gift of the Lord Bishop of Norwich, by virtue of his bishopric. LATEST IGENCE. AGITATION AT ROME. The correspondence from Rome in the continental journals of to-day is written in a highly alarmist tone. The writers describe the moderate party as daily losing ground, and the party of action, as it is called, as taking the lead. A formidable demon stration was preparing with the intention of a con test with the pontifical troops and authorities, but a systematic retreat from the French. An approach ing debarkation of Garibaldi at Cornet* was believed in, and two French battalions had been sent there by General Montebello in great haste. It seems that the very employds of the pontifical govern ment are working for the Italian cause, and arrests have taken place among them. A procla mation which has been widely circulated says, " The time for action is come. At a given moment let us all assemble at the Forum, at the place of the people, along our old sacred ways, and declare our wishes by accla mations, since it is forbidden to do so by suffrage, and Europe will echo our shouts. If the • papa line' attack you, resist them to the death ; if the French, retire—and your martyrdom will move the I world as did that of Poland." A letter from Toulon of the 21st says :—" Grave events are about to happen in Italy, if we may judge from what is going on at Toulon at this moment. Yesterday, at 6 o'clock, a despatch arrived, ordering the commander of the naval divi sion of the coast to leave immediately for Civita Vecchia with a despatch boat. This morning the great steam frigates of 460-horse power, the Des cartes and the Gomer, have gone to sea with the fullest war equipment." _ . The qiicie observes :—" It is certa;n that the French government, which rests upon universal suffrage, cannot longer prevent the Romans from manifesting their wishes in a legal and pacific way." NAPLES. TRIAL OF BOURBONIC CONSPIRATORS. The Naples correspondent of the Post writes on the 19th : Yesterday morning the Arise Court of Naples offered an interesting spectacle in the trial of Count Frederick de l Christen, lit. Cenatiempo, Signors Caracciulo, Nolli, de Luca, Tortora, De Angelis, Rceber, Menghini, and the old woman, or rather old witch, Santa Beretta, for conspiracy &pallet the state, with a view to the restoration of the Bourbonic dynasty. De Christen's name will be familiar to your readers as an officer in the Neapolitan army, and one of the most fervent and adventurous upholders of Francis IL's cause since the capture of Gaeta. The prelate Cone tiempo was in continual correspondence with the ex-King and his agents in Rome, and the other prisoners were secretaries, messengers, recruiting officers, and indirect agents of the principal conspirators, who were in the habit of meeting in • villa at Pausilippo, hired for the purpose by Monaignore Canatiempo. The result of the first day's proceedings showed clearly the exiatence of the conspiracy, and the discovery of the correspondence and plans of the conspirators in the villa, with the list of 1,190 armed men, and 1,250 unarmed, 600 custom-house soldiers, and 100 others of different corps, already enrolled, and ready to march ou Naples from the general rendezvous at Capodichino. In the course of the trial, an incidental revela tion caused great sensation and some disturbance in the court. This was the declaration of the prisoner Nolli, who asserted that he had rendered important service to the state in the discovery of a plot formed in France, in 1857, to overthrow the Bourbonic dynasty in Naples, and to sub stitute that of Lusien Murat. It appears now to be beyond a doubt that at that period the Muratnts were hard at work, and that the late Kiog Ferdinand 11. was fully aware of their schemes. (B.ZUTER ° B TELCORAIIB.) FRANCE. PARIS. JULY 25. The Mondeur of this morning publishes a decree levying supplementary dues on certain chemicals of Belgian and English origin. These dues are to be paid independently of the customs duties stipulated by the treaties of commerce. The articles and the dues to be levied upon them are as follows :—Caustic soda 14 francs, bicar bonate and silicate of soda 7 francs, hydrate of soda 3 francs 50c., albuminate of soda 7 francs, hyposulphate of soda 3 francs, chrystallised acetate of soda 3 francs. Another decree orders that until the let January, 1863, the abovementioned articles of French origin will on exportation have the benefit of drawbacks fixed at the same sum as the duties imposed on similar Belgian and English products. PORTUGAL. LISBON, Jnir 24. The Portuguese loan of 125 millions baa been !ally covered. MONTENEGRO. PARIS, JULT 25. The Paris papers of to-day publish the following telegram : " Ragusa, July 24. " The Turks lost about 3,000 men in the battles of Friday and Saturday last. "Omer Pacha is fortifying the line of Bjelopau lovitch, as the base of his operations. "On the 21st inht. the Turks attacked Sajaratz, where the Montenegrins made a vigorous resist ance." A Turin letter say's :—" Touching the thieves of Bologna, lam grieved to have to tell you the sad fate of that able and gallant Magenta, the prefect, to whose energy and vigilance that town was indebted for the rapid and thorough extirpation of those malefactors, who for a season threatened to renew the exploits by which they distin guished themselves in the palmiest pontifical times. M. Magenta was travelling to Switzerland with • view to re emit his health by • few draughts of fresh alpine air, when on the descent of the St. Gotham his poetchaise was upset, sad he was killed by the fall. He was thought to be slightly hurt, because he was stunned, and apparently free from pain ; but, on being conveyed to A.ndermatt, he died after a few hours' easy, because latent, struggle. His un happy wife, who, after receiving • by no means alarming telegram, instantly set out for the spot, only arrived at Aadermatt to Mad her husband laid out for burial." A Cologne letter says :—" The bad weather of she first fortnight in July had led to fears for the harvest, and in all German markets an upward movement in prices bad been manifested. The present fine weather has, how ever, caused a reaction in prices. The rye barred Is already in progress io the south of Germany, and such of the grain as has been offered in our market is dry and of excellent quality. According to advises from all parts of Germany and Hungary, there will he • good crop of all kinds of grain, and a great abundance of potatoes." BIRTH OP A HIPPOPOTAMUS.—A hippopotamus was born a few days hack at the Zoological Gardens of Amsterdam. Hopes were at first entertained of bringiog it up, as for some hours after its birth it was playing about, the dam at the same time watching its movements, and treating it with the greatest care. The male, however, which was separated from the female by • partition, became greatly agi tated and mad* every effort to reach the young one ; the mother in the meantime driving back the cub each time that in playing it approached too near the partition dividing them from the male. In the evening of the following day the male became furious, refused to Mire any food, and made violent efforts to climb the hoarding, seven feet high. The anxiety of the mother now her came intense, and each time that the young one rose she drove it with such force to the farther side of the enclosure, that, with the hope of easing its life, it was removed. The male and female then became quiet, and fed as usual. New milk was given to the young one, but it died on the following day. It is to be regretted that there efficacious means bad not been adopted to separate the male from the female, as had it been possible to leave the young one with the latter, its life would probably have bow preserved.—Oalignati. BXPRESI3 FROM PARIS. (nor on ows PARIS, THURSDAY EVIMMIO. The Patrie gives the startling news that Gari baldi, at the head of 6,000 volunteers, has resolved to make a landing in the Roman States, and that, to prevent this attempt, the Minister of Marine has ordered Captain Pothuan, commanding the naval division on the southern coasts, to proceed immedi ately to Civita Vecchia, at the bead of a naval force consisting of six ships of war.

General Montebello has sent troops from Rome to guard the frontier. This is important news. I utterly disbelieve, for my own part, that Garibaldi can be such a fool as to begin a war with France at the present time ; and I greatly fear that the ships are despatched under a false pretext for a sinister purpose. The Bourse was not disturbed by the rumours of Garibaldi's projects. The Rente was tolerably steady, and rose 5c., closing at 68fr. 50c. and 68fr. 450.

THE GRIEVANCES OF THE JOURNEYMEN BAKERS. MR. TREMENHERRES REPORT. This morning a blue book of 212 pages was issued, containing a report, dated the 3rd instant, addressed to the Home Secretary, by Mr. Tremenheere, relative to the grievances complained of by the journeymen bakers. The report itself occupies 66 pages; the rest of the book consists of the evidence. The proposition which Mr. Tremenheere recommends for the consi deration of the legislature are the following:— •' 1. That no youth under eighteen years of age should be *Bowed to be employed in a bakehouse later than the hour of 9 pm., or earlier than 5 am. 2. That bakehouses should be placed under inspection, and subjected to certain regulations in regard to ventilation, cleanliness, &c. 3. In the course of the inquiry several questions presented them selves, more or less directly affecting the condition and wel fare of the journeymen bakers, but having also a wider scope, and involving matters of much interest to the public generally. I should not h►ve satisfactorily fulfilled the im mediate duty imposed upon me had I declined entering upon those questions. Therefore, in the interest both of the journeymen and the public, I am prepared to submit to you, thirdly, that it would be desirable that the provisions of the act • for preventing the adulteration of articles of food,' (Z 3 and 24 Vict. a 84), should be made more effectual" Mr. Tremenheere also thinks it highly desirable to direct attention to the introduction of machinery in the process of bread-making by Mr. Stevens's patent doughmakiog machine, and by Dr. Dauglish's system of making what is termed the 'mated bread. Many of the grievances com plained of are, he says, beyond the reach of legislative remedies ; but although it would be impossible for parlia ment to interfere with the night work and the long hours of day work of the adult labourers in the baking trade, "it is to be hoped," says Mr. Tremenheere, " that this inquiry, and the renewed discussion of the sub ject to which it is likely to give rise, may have some effect in leading to such mutual concessions, of a simple nature, between the men and their masters, as may place those questions upon a footing satisfactory to both parties." The report deals separately with each subject contained in the above propositions, and the facts detailed are of painful interest. MYSTERIOUS MURDER AT CHATHAM. CHATHAM, THURSDAY. Between five and six o'clock last evening the body of a respectably-dressed boy, apparently between nine and ten years of age, was found in one of the fields adjoining Chatham Lines, with its tSroat cut and the bad and face much bruised, leaving no doubt that the poor child had been cruelly murdered. The spot where the body was found was close to one of the heaps of chalk thrown up from the air shaft of the railway tunnel passing under Chatham Lines, in a field in the occupation of Mr. Gilberts, and close to the lines, which, during the evening, are always crowded by boys and men playing at cricket and other games. The body was first seen by a lad named Alfred Tree, who at once called the at tention of two men who were passing to the discovery, and information was immediately given to the police. On the body being removed to the Napier Arms tavern, it was soon identified m being that of Thomas Frederick Houghton, the son of respectable parents residing at Almon place, High-street, Chatham. The deceased left his home in the afternoon for the purpose of playing on the Lines, but nothing more appears to have been seen of him until the body was discovered under the circumstances stated. From the medical examination of the body it was evident that the murder had been committed early in the afternoon, and that the deceased had boon dead two or three boon when the body was found. The principal wound was one, of three or four inches in length, in the throat, which was of itself sufficient to cause death. There was also a bruise on the mouth and cheek as if done by a blow with the fist. Tho place where the body was lying gave indication of • severe struggle having taken place, but there was compara tively little blood to be seen. At nine o'clock this morning Mr. Thomas Hills, one of the coroners for the district, opened an inquest on the body at the Napier Anna. SuM. cient evidence as to the identity and finding of the body was taken, after which the inquiry was adjourned fora week to give the police time to endeavour to discover the perpe trator of what there is every reason to believe is • foul murder. ACCIDEIREI IN FACTORIES. —The half-yearly reports of Mr. Alexander Redgmve mud Mr. Robert Baker, inspectors of factories, were issued this morning. The number of accidents has diminished in the half-year ending 30th of April ; but this, the inspectors say, is mainly owing to the want of employment, which has proportion. ately diminished the number of operatives. Both gentle men say, however, that they are concurrently endeavouring to reduce the number of such disasters absolutely by the more effectual fencing of machinery. A Naples letter of the 19th says :—" Apropos of salon, two Jack Tan astonished the Neapolitans with • boxing match in the Villa Reale yesterday afternoon. Heenan and Royer' did not go into each other with better will; but the battle did not last long, for one of the pugi• lista had a rib broken by a tremendous knock-down blow, and the police, seeing the moment favourable, made • rush at the victor; but the other generous tar, see• ing his adversary in the hands of the Philtstines, arose from the ground and 0111111 to his rescue with such effect that the police, numerous as they were, could not capture the two sailors, who fought back to back, and kept the beaks at bay until • detachment of soldiers with fixed bayonet' pat an end to the contest, and escorted the combatants to the office of the oommisiary of police." mum OP A LADY PROM STARVATION. EXTRAORDINARY SUPPIRINUS. An unusually painful inquiry 1188 held at the Three Crane' Tavern, Maremtreet, Hackney, by Mr. John BUM one of the coroners for the county of at • late hour last night, respecting the death of Mrs. Emma Seellgrove, aged M, a lady who expired 00 Sunday last from starvation order the following lamentable circumstances. The case created considerable interest owing to the respectable position of the family, and the dreadful nature of the sufferings endured. Mr. Stephen Snellgrove, 7, Church-yard, Hackney, the eon of the deceased, tottered into the court, and his emaci ated appearance caused • marked sensation. Having been accommodated with a seat, he mid that his mother was the widow of a gentleman in the wise trade, who died some years since, leaving witness and his brother William 100/. each. The family then lived on the salary which witness sad his brother carped as clerks in the docks. Twelve months ago witness, thO e illneas, lost hie situation, and his brother not being y employed, they lived upon the remnant of witness a 1001. For • long time past they had been suffering great privations, living on breed alone, sod witness and the deceased bad been coafined to bed from illness and exhaustion. On the Fri day morning before deceased's death they had a little dry bread, and from that time until her death, on Sunday, they bad no toad whatever. On the Saturday evening deceased became delirious, and continued raving from hunger the whole night. He crawled downstairs on his hands and knees and found • few grains of coffee, with which he made a drink, and gave it to her. The next morning be noticed that she bad ceased to talk, and upon going in to give her another drink, he found her dead. He then wrote a note to • &lead, but did not know how to convey it. After some hours, however, he crawled down to the door and gave it to some one to deliver. He since learned that his brother William had on the Tuesday before deceased's death received from that friend • sovereign for the family, but he had not given them soy of it. On the contrary, on that day he came to the house and ransacked it for everything of value, and took away a looking-glass and even witness's dressing-gown. (Sensation.) He came cie Friday and gave them a little bread to eat, and they saw him no more. Witness and deceased remained awake the whole of that night, expecting hie return, with dreadful anxiety, and on Saturday night they gave up all hope and deceased became delirious. William had frequently come to the house previously to remove things and he would not permit any person to call at the house. He used to abuse witness and his mother brutally, and refused to get witness removed to an hospital. Mrs. Selina Cook, Tyson-terrace, Malden-lane, said that on Sunday afternoon she received the following note from the last witness : " Sunday.--My dear Mn. Cook,—My mother is dead. My brother has left and we have had nothing to eat since Friday. Do come. Yours sincerely, S. SNELLGROVL" Witness bad known the family for several years and had frequently waisted them. On the Tuesday spoken of, she saw William Snellgrove and said that as his mother and brother were in a most deplorable state, and he would not even admit a person she sent to clean up the place, she would stand it no longer, and if he did not do something for them she would apply to the authorities. He replied that he was going to pleas his mother with • friend in the Ilackney-raad. Witness said that his mother would require necessaries for her removal, and she gave him • sovereign for her. It appeared that the poor lady had received none of it. In reply to the Coroner, Mr. b. Snellgrove stetted that his mother was left a prowl :Los : n :1 her husband, but that an individual who was to his sister got deceased to convert her securities into cash, which, he said, be could advantageously invest for her. When he got the money be went in the country, and had not been since beard of. Mr. W. Snellgrove was fa ocateional employment Dr. W. H. Wright said that be was called in on Sunday hat, and found the house in an indescribably dreadful state, it not having been clawed for a length of time, and there was hardly anything in the place, which had the appearance of the most abject poverty. Mr. S. Saellgrove was in such • state of prostration that he was not able to tell, and did oot seem to know, in which room his mother ley. Witness found her body in such a state of emaciation that she was merely skin and bone, and he thought she must have been at least 80 years of age. The postmortem examination showed the stomach and intes tines to be completely empty, and not only all trace of fat but the muscular tissues had disappeared. There was but little blood, which was pale and watery. The immediate cause of death was disease of the lungs, accelerated by want of food. The Coroner, in summing up, said that it was to be re gretted that in such an awful case of starvation Mr. S. Snellgrove did not find strength to call a passer-by for aid, and strongly censured the conduct of Mr. Wee. Sneligrove in the matter. The jury returned a verdict of "Death from disease accelerated by destitution." It was understood that Mr, S. Snellgrove would be forth with removed to the hospital, his state being such as to cause serious apprehensions for his life. WIPE POISONING IN IRELAND. At the Tipperary Amizea ou Monday, Richard. Burke was indicted for murdering his wife. They were married in 1847, and at the time of her death the wife, Johannah Burke, was living in the town of Clogbeee. She had been living there for a considerable time while her husband was residing in Waterford, where he filled the situation of clerk of the Waterford Union Workhouse. Monday, the 16th of April, Johanna Burke complained of not being well, took some medicine, was seized with sudden spasms, and, after frequently express ing her belief that she was dying, before either the priest or the doctor could arrive she was dead. From the symptoms it appeared that she had died from the effects of strychnine, and on a post-mortem examination strychnine was found in her stomach. It was also found that the medicine which she had taken consisted of Epsom salts, magnesia, and strychnine mixed together. It appeared that deceased had been jealous of her husband, and on the Bth of March he had visited her. She was subject to epi lepsy, and he promised to send her some medicine. He did send hee some, as appeared from a letter written by him,, which wee put in evidence. Part of it was the powder which caused her death. It was made up in a package which was endorsed in the writing of the prisoner. She did not take it as soon as it was sent, and the prisoner wrote again to her urging her to take it, as the doctor said it would do her good. The prisoner had access to the surgery of the Waterford Workhouse, and he was seen about the time the powder was sent mixing some powder in the surgery. He had also been making ioquiriei as to the effect. of strych nine. As bee been stated, Mm. Burke died from the effects of the powder. Witnesses were called to prove these facts, and the case was adjourned till Tuesday, when the jury, after an hour's deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty, but they unanimously recommended the prisoner to mercy in consideration of his previous good character. Sentence was deferred. WKATHER ILIPOBT.-(THIS DAY.) lillat Alil SS. S A.M. IL L IL D. 1.0. L Z. 8. Ns= . 29.65 57 U S. W. 7 0 Amami; 21.19 II 64 S.W. 5 Br 0.46 Ural Bum= AzDsossAa Pawn= ..
