THE LATH FESTIVAL OF MIME CHolll3.—The accounts of the late and most successful festival of the Three Choirs ever held have just been made up, and at the final meeting of the stewards, held at Hereford, were pre sented by the hon. am. and conductor, Mr. G. Townshend Smith, and passed. The collection for the charity for the relief of clergymen's widows and orphans amounted to 1,3821. be., which goes without deduction to the charity. This is the largest amount ever realised at these meetings. There is ales a surplus of receipts over expenditure of 14W. Of this sum 1001. w ca ordered to be funded, and thanks were voted to the Bishop, the Dean and Chapter, Mr. and Mrs. Otto Goldschmidt, and to the hon. see., Mr. Smith, for his indefatigable exertions in making arrangements for the festival, and bringing it to its unprecedentedly suc cessful IMO. MR. GLADSTONE AND THE REFORM FETE.—A meeting of the general committee for promoting the above fete was held last evening at the Bell Inn, Old Bailey, Mr. George Potter in the chair. The chairman brought up a report from the sub•oommittee, which stated that the final arrangements for the fete had that day been made with the manager of the Crystal Palliee, by whom the committee had been met in the most liberal manner. He had promised that the whole resources of the palace should be brought into requisition to make the fête suoaeseful. With reapoct to the banquet, the programme could not be completed until Saturday, as the committee were awaiting a letter from Mr. Bright ; but the tickets were being rapidly disposed of, and seem al membersof parliament, with influential deputations from the large towns, would be preent and address the meeting. He regretted they would not have Mr. Gladstone with them, as might be seen from the following letter he had received from that gentleman :—" Hawarden, Chester.—Dear Sir : I am very sensible of the kind feeling which leads you and those on whose behalf you act to desire my melees at the Reform banquet, and I have much reason to be grateful to the working men of London, as well as Indeed to the public generally, for their generous appreciation of e ff orts which have nothing to reanaunand them but their sincerity. I beg, however, to say that in all that yet remains nnsocompllahed I shall labour to complete the set tlement of this great question in the same spirit which has hitherto guided me. But I must beg to adhere to the intention announced in my former reply, and to express my hope that you will give me credit for having penned it after having given the beet 000sideration in my power to all the circumstances of the case.—l remain dear sir, your faithful servant, W. E. °Lammas." He had no 'doubt they would all, with him, feel disappointed at Mr. Glad. stom's decides, but ho fruited they would have moon oompoolatiou in the memos of M. Bright.

MANCHESTER, Sm. 24. There have been three more arrests since yester day, but the prisoners have not been identified at the polioe-eourt as taking part in the rescue, and they will probably be discharged. The polies ware last night scouring the country is all directions. A force draughted from the county constabulary, assisted by Manchester detectives, touched all the neighbourhood of Eccles, and other localities in which it was thought the fugitives, Kelly and Deasy, might be secreted, have been visited. All the populous and other towns cur. rounding Manchester have active officers stationed in them, who are furnished with ample descrip tions and other means for identifying the men they are instructed to muck for. The police are now armed with cutlasses, and at each police-station there is an ample supply of loaded revolvers, ready for delivery to the officers in cue of an emergency likely to justify their The two lads intended for the industrial school were in the prison van when attacked, and give a rather vivid pic ture of what oceurred. Thay were placed, one in a box on the right side of the internal passage of the van, and the other ins box on the left. It also happened that their re spective boxes, which were each the lid but one at the far end of the van, and which Were consequently directly opposite each other, were sevOrally adjoined by the reap"- ties boxes in which Colonel Kelly and Cagitain Deist wets. placed, these latter boxes being, in fact, firth* com partments to the right' and left of the nudge. Kelly and Deasy bad each his box ;to' himself, while the young lads shared theirs with another prisoner' each. In one of these lads, who it a surgeon's , errand May, Dr. Bowman, of this city, is taking • considerable interest, which is said to be well warranted by the little fellow's remarkable intelligence and natural ingenuousness of character. It is said that from the box he was placed in, which, like the others, had • wooden grating low enough in the door for him to see through it, he could observe everything that took place in any portion of the passage except at the ond nearest the door where Sergeant Brett was standing. He could also hear a good deal of what was said or done, whether in the van or by some of the assailants outside. His story, as it has been told to us, is that he felt the van brought up with a sudden jerk. At that time there was not much light in his box or in the passage. The first thing he heard was • pistol shot, and then another, and then many more. The next thing was a great noise on the roof end at the door of the van; and soon afterwards, looking through' the grating, he saw it bad got lighter. The women whom he had previously seen in the passage made a great screaming. There were five or six of them. He had not seen Sergeant Brett at all, and except for what soon followed he would not have known he was in the passage with the women. While the hammering was going on against the panels, and the shots were firing outside, the women began to take hold of each other and pray. The next thing the boy heard was • voice outside the door say " Open the door, and let your prisoners out." The boy heard no answer to this. The same voice then said, " Where are the keys—turn 'em up !" Then a man's voice inside replied, " I dismal." The voice outside said, "If you'll give up the keys we won't kill you," To this the answer was " No." The next thing was the firing of a shot into the van. The boy subsequently picked up the ball and handed it to Constable Knox.) Before the pistol was fired, the woman said, " Give up the keys, Charlie, or you'll be killed." After the shot was fired the same voice cried, " He's killed." What the lad next saw was some of the women going to the wickets of the different boxes opposite to his, and, looking through them, they said, " He's shot dead," and " Charlie's stiff an anything." At the same time, other of the women said, " He's got the keys in his pocket—get them out." At this time also the boy says there was such a noise that be thought the door was broken through, and he has even no idea that it was unlocked by means of the keys taken from Brett's pocket. (It must be borne in mind that the boy could not see what took place at the end of the passage where Brett was now lying.) He next heard the same voice that had asked for the keys say, " Where's Pat Kelly !" and he saw • man with • bunch of keys in his hand walking along the passage. He was • middleeised man, with a pale face, and he wore knickerbocker leggings. A voice from the opposite box at the end of the van said, " I'm here." The man with the keys—the lad saw there were three keys on the ring —then tried to unlock the door. He tried the two wrong keys first, and with the third he opened the door. Whatever took place in opening the box next to his own (in which Deasy was placed) the boy could only judge from what he heard. He heard the lock turned, and, without another word, three men hurried along the paean*, and went out. By this time all the women had left, and the dead man had been removed, so that the passage was clear for the three men who were in it. The last thing the boy heard was a single abet fired on the footboard by, he thinks, the man he had seen with I the bunch of keys. He is sure the man opened not more than two doors, because, when the van was afterwards I driven to the gaol, and he was let out, all the other doors ware found to be locked, and the prisoners inside the boxes were " all right." It was while be was looking about him, after being let out, that he found the bullet which beheaded to Constable Knox. The boy also say. that his fellow. prisoner in the same box said to the man with the keys, " Here, open this door ;" but the man wouldn't. The other boy, who was in the opposite box (which, as explained above,fadjoined Kelly's), is understood to give evidence singularly oorresponding to that of the lad Baxter. The boy's name we have not yet ascertained. Ho describes the noise on the roof, the battering at the door, the reports of pistol shots, and the alarm of the women. He also speaks to the dialogue between the man on the footboard and Sergeant Brett. While some of the women oiled " God help us," others said, "Get the keys out of poor Charlie's pocket." He also heard, in reply to the man who came in and shouted, " Where's Kelly ?" a prisoner say, " He's here." That voice came either from the box where the boy Baxter and a fellow. primmer were placed or from the box next to it at the end of the van, viz. the box where Kelly himself was. The man with the keys was about to unlock Baxter's door, when a voice said, " No, I'm here." He then unlocked the sod door, and the boy saw a man come out. Neither of the boys noticed that the men who ware released had handcuffs on, for they instantly walked along the passage and want out without saying or doing anything. Both the boys afterwards saw blood inside the van near the door, and outside an the footboard. They say it took ten minutes to a quarter of an hour from the time the van wee stopped with a jerk until it went on again. They do not know if the horses were changed, but they heard a new clattering of horses' feet before the van started again for the gaol. ANOTHER ATTZIMPTID ESCAPE BY A FiNIAN PRISONER.—Abort the month of March lest, a young man named John leCarthy, son of • publican residing in Fenno'', was arrested on suspicion of being a Fenian, and lodged in the county gaol. The abortive rising of the rebels took place, and the special commission came on, at which it was expected he would be charged with disloyalty to the Brit ah crown, bat through the leniency of the audio ride. he was not tried, and • short time since he was liberated on condition that he would at onoo leave the country. He accepted the offer, and, apparently thankful for his freedom, he made no delay in aiming out the terms of his release, and a few days afterwards left for America. He returned from America, however, and re cently he was arrested at Lis own house, and was lodged in Fermoy bridewell to await orders from the castle. He had not been incarcerated more than • few days when the town of Fenno,' was again alarmed at a daring attempt of his at escape. It appeared that one morning the gaoler, on visiting the oell, was somewhat alarmed by being attacked by leCarthy, who knocked him down and deprived him of his keys, and, leaving the cell, pulled the door on the gaoler and locked it. It seems Id`Certhy then went through some passages of the prison, opening the doors as he went slow - till his 'rival at the outer well, unmolested, which he proceeded to soale. The shouts of the unlucky gaoler were, however, sufficiently loud to attract pedestrians paring outside the prison, who began to congregate in the neighbourhood. llrCarthy was seen to gain the top of the well, but through the instrumentality of • female in the mood, whomformed the police, he was prevented getting MI, and on dropping the wall was taken into custody, and Moth* in prioon. The authorities were then communicated with, and acquainted with the feats of the attempted escape, and they at ones ordered his removal to the Cork county gaol, where be wind as Saturday.—Coot Coosseitation. aDIII3II ON CUARD LINE.—BRITISH and NORTH AIIFAUCAN ROYAL MAIL STEAM SHIPS, appointed by the Admiralty to will between LIVERPOOL end NEW YORK, sod between LIVERPOOL end BOSTON, the Boone Alpe et Halifax to land cud receive pessengers and mails The to lowing or other vessele are sppointed Se sell trona Liverpool, eallise at lurk to receive the mails: CCBA, for BOSTON Satmd~y, Se ftmber ES.

(11=17.2 . 8 TELOGRANIL) ARREST OF GARIBALDL FLORENCE, Barr. M. Garibaldi was arrested yesterday evening at Sinelunge, near Sienna, by order of the Italian government. Be was conveyed by special train to Florence, and from there to Aleasandria. At the time of his arrest he was preparing to enter the Papal territory. FLORENCE, Sim 24, 9.5 r.w. Garibaldi's arrest has caused some ezdtement• A large crowd paraded the city this evening, shout• ing, " Release Garibaldi !" The troops were called out, and tranquillity has been restored. ITALY. FLORENCE, Barr. 24, EVENING. This evening's Official Gazette says : " The agitation by which it has been sought to impel the country to violate international stipulations, far from calming down, has become stronger and more audacious. After a frank and decisive de claration, the ministry resolved to fulfil its duty and keep its pledged word. The ministry had con vinced itself of the fact that during the last few days a large number of volunteers had taken the road to the frontier, where depots of arms had been made, and whither other arms accompanied or followed them. From Florence and Arezzo General Garibaldi took the direction of the same frontier by way of Sinalunga. The object of this movement was thenceforth only too evident. Action had really commenced, and therefore there arose for the government the unavoidable necessity either of allowing that treaties should be broken in violation of the public faith, the authority of the law, and the interests of the nation, or of keeping its word and maintaining inviolate at any price the majesty of the law. The ministry has performed its duty. Volunteers who were on the road to the Roman frontier, or had already arrived there, were notified to return to their homes, and those who refused were con ducted thither. General Garibaldi; at Sinalunga, was summoned in the name of the law to retrace his steps, and having refused, he was conducted to Aleseandria. Supplies of arms have also been seized. The ministry has performed a painful duty, but it foresaw consequences still more de plorable had it temporised any longer. Tho wis dom of the Italian people, if it did not render this step lees painful at least made it less difficult. The ministry trusts that through that same pru dence all traces must soon disappear of an agitation against which the ministry is guarding,oonscious of its task, which is to sustain the dignity of Italy's pledged word, and to act for the advantage of the nation at large." THE INTENDED INVASION OF THE PAPAL TERRITORY. PARIS, Sirr. 24, EvEmma. The Pattie of this evening says that a telegram has been received from Florence, dated yesterday, announcing that Garibaldi left Arezzo on Sunday evening and that his whereabouts were not known. A telegram received this morning adds that he had gone to the Papal frontier. Great excitement prevailed in Florence. Orders had been sent to different quarters to effect his arrest. The same journal states that great animation reigns at Toulon in consequence of the news from Italy. Contradictory rumours are in circulation. there. According to some there was a question of sending a squadron of evolution to watch the Roman coast, and the order for its departure would shortly be sent to Ajaccio, where Admiral Gueydon is stationed. The Minister of War was shortlyexpected to arrive at Toulon, and every arrangement had been mado for embarking troops, if necessary. The Patric adds, that it is impossible for it either to affirm or deny these statements, but it is certain that several ships are ready to sail, and that the transport Intrepide has received orders to arm immediately. THE NORTH GERMAN PARLIAMENT. BERLIN, fiwr. 24. In to-day's sitting of the North German Parlia ment, after two of the draughts of an address in reply to the speech from the throne had been withdrawn, the third came on for discussion. Se veral members made speeches advocating its adop tion, while others opposed it. Count Bismarck protested against an observation of Herr Beber that mention should be made in the address of the " Release of Luxemburg," and said, " Luxemburg preserves the same territorial rela tions as before. Prussia has only yielded up the right of garrisoning the fortress—a right which was not an undoubted one, and for the maintenance of which people in Germany were unwilling to plunge into war. Moreover, the neutralisation of the fortress compensates us for relinquishing the right of garrisoning it." As far as other questions were I concerned, he stated that the government viewed the proposed address neither favourably nor unfavourably. Referring to the circular of the ith inst. he declared that no pressure whatever would be exercised upon the Southern States. If South Germany should give it to be understood that it-was her wish to be excluded from the Bund, no Federal government would be so wanting in self-respect as to oppose each a wish. The parlia ment, however, would, he felt sure, not wish to force him to abandon a certain necessary reserve on the subject, as such a course would, perhaps, conduce to bring about objects entirely opposed to those which they bad in view. Alluding to the question of Northern Schleswig, he declared I; facto- ETWOPPY THIS MUTILATION OP TEA THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY. Yesterday afternoon, Dr. Hardwick° deputy coroner for Central Middlesex, held an nest at the Rsulway Hotel, Colney-lietch, relative to the death of Fanny Slim, Mary Anne, and Henry Albert Roddis, aged seven, five, and three years respeetively, who lost their lives in a shocking manner on Saturday morning by being run over by the express rip Midland train while erasing the line, at a short distance from the Colney-hatch station. Mr. Wontner, solicitor, watched the proceedings on be half of the Great Northern Railway Company ; and Mr. Ring, solicitor, appeared for several local inhabitants interested in the inquiry. The jury having been sworn viewed the bodies, and afterwards proce ed ed to the scene of the accident, which is about 'NC yards from the railway station. A public pathway runs parallel with the line on the western side, and in the attempt to get on to it by moans of a crewing over the line reached by a bye . way on the eastern ride, the poor children came by their death. On the return of I the . lry, evidence of identification was given by m il y um. Taylor, hall porter at the Colney Hatch Lunatic Alfred Glover, platelayer on the line, deposed to having found the bodies inunealately after they had been run over. Ha said he was attracted by the noise et the whistle, and on Wiring round he saw the dessesed chil dren under the engine. The train dragged the Smiled* lids thirty-four yards, and the bey lefty-ow yards. He picked up the body of the boy, which was nearer to him than those of the girls, and laid it on the bank. The body drawly Eliza was dismembered and lay on the rail, and Mary Anne's body was in the middle of the line. A goods train, which was going at the rate of four miles an hour, just before the express came up. William Smith, being examined, said he was an engine (Myer, and drove the express train from telemeter to King's-crass on Saturday morning. When the goods train lied passed the mowing he saw the deceased children on the line, but as they were only four or five yards distant he he could not stop. The train was going at the rate of 40 miles an hour. He stopped at the station, and reported the occurrence. Benjamin Murgatroid said he was guard of the np Mid land express on Saturday morning. He was looking out of the window, and after the goods train had passed he saw the children get on the line in front of the engine. As soon as they stopped at Colnsy Hatch station, he found • Keck straw bat belonging to one of the little girls attached to the train. Edward Taylor, the first witams, was recalled, and stated, in answer to the coroner, that he supposed the de ceased children were going " blackberryin g." They crossed and recrossed the line four thrice a dey, on their way to and from school. A juror remarked thlt from 100 to 130 children pawed over the crafting daily. Mr. Ring said it was a regular thoroughfare wholly um. guarded. John Angus, residing at 10, Ely-place, Colney Hatch, laid there were twenty cottages on the eastern side of *a lift, sad the children residing in them went over the ' crossing daily to go to Flying Barnet echo& There wee also an infant school on the eastern aide of the line. Edward Dibben, station-master at Colney Hatch, was next examined. He stated that the wowing in question was a public • , and he had never heard of an acci dent having occurred there before Saturday last. He was not aware that the company thought it unsafe at any time. Up to four years ago the creasing was approached by an embankment. He did not think it was more fre quented now than formerly. Four years ago the path was diverted, sad a safer and • better way of approach was made, but it was altered at the request of .aome parishioners, who did not like to have the old church path removed. — fie witness, in reply to Mr. Ring, mid no one wee stn- boned to protect the path. There was • bridge between the cros sing and the tunnel. The foreman, in the course of some remarks, said the accident might bare been avoided by small expense on the part of the company, and the construction of a tunnel under the embankment. He thought that if Blackstone was any authority, the company were liable to a charge of murder. The Coroner said the jury might memorialise the Great Northern Railway Company for a tunnel or approach, and he was sure the request would be attended to. The foreman thought the killing of the deceased children was a powerful memorial. lie considered that under Lord Campbell's Aot the case was one for compensation. The Coroner replied they were not lawyers ; they only wanted to know the come of death. The jury then retired, and returned with a verdict, which being read by the coroner, was pronounced by that gentleman to be one of manslaughter against the company, inasmuch as it charged them with not hiving cued proper precaution. The foreman said they did not intend to return a ver- dict of manslaughter, although they wished to say some thing strong with regard to the company. The Coroner said any remarks they wished to make should he made the subject of a distinct resolution. The jury spin retired, and, after a long deliberation, riturwa with a verdict of "Accidental distil," accompa nied by • resolution to the e ff ect that they were of opinion that all public creasing, on reeds and railway lines should have proper superintendence and protection for the pre ' vend= of accidents in future. They also considered the . T crossing in question to be =rife, and they thought the . 4 1." we of the mother of the dammed chilblain to be • proper • ' one for the consideration of the Great Northern Railway Company. Kr. Weenier said he had been instructed to say that the =now would bear the =pease of burying the chil dren, and it had been the intention of the authorities of the company to lay the circumstances of the mother of the children lid= the board of direct.= ; but after the strong animus against the company that had been shown, be could not my whether those views would be altered or not. The Coroner std the Great Northern Company invaria bly gave arialimos in eases of this kind. The inquiry then terminated. THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OP THE METROPOLIS. A meeting of the Council of the Metropolitan Municipol Association was held yesterday at 209, Picca dilly, for the purpose of establishing some means of inter communication between the several districts of the metro. polls and the City of London, interested in the establish ment of local municipalities in London ; Mr. CONTI Citing in the char.

(hint RATING IN THE EARTNRF Opium eating, it is said, goes on to an incredinle extent in the eastern counties. Dr. Hawking, of King's Lynn, toile the readers of the Medical Journal that half the opium imported into England la consumed in Lincolnshire and Norfolk. One Lynn chemist sells 2001 b., another 1401 b. a year of solid opium, besides five or six gallons of laudanum, and five or six gallons of " Oodfrry's Elixir" (a pint of laudanum in every three gallons) a week. Plis will be shurtled to hear of drawers full of half-draohnt perketa of opium, of which many customers take three a day. A farmer came in to get some good lau danum. " How, many drops?" asked the chemist. " Drops ?" was the reply; give me an ounce and a half." The chemist looked at him, sow he was in the habit of taking it, and gave him the dose. He drank it off, re turned twice in the day for the same quantity, and took home a half-pint bottlefull with him when he left the market. The habit is no new one. The present writer can mach for its existence in and round Spalding, and even across is Leicestershire a dozen years ago. The ex cuses would be obvious—deficient food with the poor, ague and " rbeeir.atie," 'lading an anodyne. with others. But it is a growing habit, and Dr. Hawkins speaks very strongly of its pernicious effects in poisoning the To it he attributes the excessive infant mortality in the district, and the " !Miserable, feeble, brownish yellow countenances so striking among many of the inhabitants." In fact, he thinks its effect on the system almost as bad as those of syphilis, and hills for same interference to dis sent-lege what is becoming a cause of wido-spread de generacy in the breed. Important evidence was adduced yesterday at the inquiry held by Mr. Lewis, the coroner Inc Elmo, Wetly* to the death of George Chememau, the steersman of the Metis at the time of the colliaion between that vessel and the screw rtesizooollier Wentworth on the evening of Friday, the 6th of leptember. The inquiry was adjourned to Friday, the 4th of October.
