A late edition d the IroyortllM is published every evening aunts' the roam swan, containing the results of the day's new. Tura, was a time, and not very long ago, when a debate cm Poland in the House of Coin mons was not deemed a waste of precious Parlia mentary eloquence and attention. There was a time, perhaps, when political questions were not entirely subordinated to " practical measures," and when at the beginning of July those " practical measures" which so usefully supersede a political programme were not a beggarly account of inter rupted failures. But we have the happiness to live in an easy-going age, when between "prao " tical " measures which fall to pieces in their pas sage to the Lords, and political measures which are by common consent tabooed, the notion of spend ing an hour or two in the first week of July in discussing the grossest infraction of treaties ever perpetrated by a great European Power is laughed to scorn by the " Don't-matter" party which pre sides so pleasantly in these piping days over the ,4 councils of the realm. Judging from the expe rience of the last live months, and tho extraordinary amount of public business got through by a " practical " Government and an indulgent Oppo sition, in a House in which the programme of all parties consists in agreeing to differ as long as a dissolution can be staved off, it is difficult not to regret that a topic so extraneous, so purely so matic and otiose as Poland should disturb the do mestic business of a quorum of severely "practical" legislators. Poland is one of those lion d'aurres which were permissible enough when the House was filled with a set of sentimentalists and theories, whose mode of transacting public business at home was to occupy a session in debating Catholic Emancipation, the repeal of the Corn Laws, or a " comprehensive " Reform Bill. We have now arrived at years of discretion and repose, and it is only when we take our " forty winks, " in the intervals of practical legislation and the Opera, that we allow our ears to be tickled with a fan timia on the rights and wrongs of Poland. And yet, for all the languid sneers of the " Don't-matter" school, it is satisfactory to be able to remark that the brief and animated die cusaion on the affairs of Poland in the House of Commons on Tuesday, was ir. some respects more remarkable and effective than almost any that have been hoard on that distressing question within the last thirty years. That the debate was opened by a bitter enemy to the rights of the nation beyond the Alps, and an ardent apolo gist for the policy of Austria towards Italy from 1815 to 1854, added zest and pungency to Mr. Pore Ilesznisv's advocacy of Polish nationality. There are isconaistentics of feeling and opinion in ess lives of most public men of strong political pre judices and passions, which are too generous for taunts. Sympathy for national rights from a fervent Papal crusader and admirer of the BOVIUSONS of Naples is all the more deserving of &cordial welcome that it comes from so unexpected • quarter. The cause of Poland, it is true, has the advantage in the eyes of a Papal crusader of being less accessible to indignant sympathy than the cause of Italy. M. DE MONT►LLMBLLT If, we believe, to this day, as devoted a nationalist, in behalf of Poland, as when once a year he defied the armies of Russia from the tribune of the Chamber of Peers. Yet an unfortunate analogy is suggested by the temper of the " old parties" in France towards Italy, and the temper of the old Russian parties towards Poland. The "old parties" in France grudge to Italy the liberties they have failed to keep, just as the " old parties" in Russia have grudged to Poland the liberties they have not yet gained for themselves. But this in passing : sym pathy with the rights of a nation, front whatever quarter, is always welcome and always respectable. At any rate, Mr. bIo)NOLTON Maxis, in seconding Mr. Ha.vszsav's motion, restored it to its natural sphere of opinion and principle, and did good ser vice to the cause that has always been so near his own heart by the poignant force with which he asked how the great treaty-breaking Powers could de mand the respect of France for the very treaties they have broken, or the aid of England in maintaining their treaty-rights. Mr. 51ii.xni showed an intelligent and true ap preciation of that moral force which, in spite of the sneers of political materialists, transcends the operations of fleets and armies, when he appealed with temperate earnestness, in the name of out raged public opinion and of the enlightened con science of civilized Europe, to the prudence and foresight of the Russian Government, and to that noble and memorable example of national feeling and national sacrifice which the Russian nation had displayed during the Crimean war, against the flagitious attempt to disregard the moral sense of Europe and to suppress the na tional spirit of the Polish people. It is weU that the great Russian people should understand, that to di fend the rights of one natio& is to defend the rights of all. Mr. Mitzi/A speaks with such unfeigned respect of the Russian people that his words deserve acceptance even at St. Petersburg as • faithful interpretation of English feeling. Nor can it be fairly objected that the FORNON NIU'RVTAI:I. and the Fiesr Muslim:it did injustice to English feeling, or betrayed any indifference to the rights of Poland, in their way of speaking on Tuesday night, while they had the courage and the honesty to define and distinguish the reeponsi bilities of the English Government, and the possi bilities of its more than moral action in such • cause. If, we say, moral force be not an idle phrase, it is no small gain for any rightful cause that the two leading ministers of England should protest in Parliament against the wanton violation of treaties by Powers who call themselves protectors of treaties, and should assert their faith in the better future of the Polish nation. The martyrs of Warsaw have not died in vain, since their massacre is avenged by such remonstrances, and by such prophetic hopes as these of the responsible rulers of free England. No doubt it is surprisingly witty to observe that after all the British fleet cannot even make a demonstration "off the coast " of Poland"; a coast which—less fortunate than Bohemia in that respect—was not even accessible to the imagination of the greatest of English poets. But the good sense of the most illustrious leaders of Polish patriotism makes any exhibition of geographical knowledge and sarcasm quite superfluous. What Poland asks for on the part of England is not the aid of armies, but of that public voice of a free and mighty nation in behalf of right and justice, which has already been worth armies to Italy. And this is why we believe these outspoken and sincere words in the British Parliament will penetrate through palaces and citadels inaccessible to fleets, "so as," in the words of an honoured correspondent of our own, " to make the guilty grow pale, and inspire " the wronged with hope." THE VOLCHTLEK MRETING AT WINDLZDOX.—WO are authorised to state, for the information of Vo lunteer Corps who have received permission to be present at Wimbledon on the 13th inst., that the several battalions are required to be upon the ground at 5 p.m., and that the line will be formed at 6 o'clock.

THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1861. and the special train proceeded vrithent further interrup tion to the Garnish, arriving at the aiding at a quarter part five o'clock. The Prince was met as the stood-house by General Sir George Brown, who had arrived at the enmesh from Dublin shortly after two o'clock, by Major- General Ridley, commanding the division, other general officers, the colonels commanding the different regiments in the encampment, Major Muons, the efficient barrack master, and a great number of officers and gentlemen on horseback. Here, as elsewhere, the crowd was large end enthusiastic in its plaudit". The Prince, who wore the umlauts uniform of a colonel of the Guards, mounted his horse and took his place between General Sir George Brown and Major-General Ridley. The cortfge then proceeded towards the encampment, a guard of honour of the let Royal Dragoons leading the way, and • great crowd of horsemen, hackney cars, and active pedes trians bringing up the rear in rather a pattered manner. The procession passed at a slow trot across the plain for s mile or more in the direction of the quarters prepared for his royal highness On the brow of the hill overlooking the head-quarters the G Battery of the Royal Horse Artil lery bad been stationed since four o'clock. The guns were ready loaded, and the gunners stood with matches in hand, watching the signal appointed for firing, which was the hoisting of the royal flag upon the staff before the bead quarters block. As the Prince of Wales approached the royal standard ran up quickly, and fluttered before a fresh breams, the twenty-one reports were heard in quick succor skin, and a regimental band stationed in the open space struck up the National Anthem. When the cortege arrived within a diatom of a hundred yards from the camp the Prince node a few steps in advance of the commander of the forces, and bowed gracefully to the people, in acknowledgment ef the loyal acclamations of the hundreds who lined the road, clinging to the railings and exerting their arms in waving of bate and handkerchiefs, and their voices in cheering the heir to the British throne. Within the railings upwards of • hundred men of the Grenadier Guards, under command of Lieut.-Colima Higginson, were stationed, and presented arms as his royal highness, followed by • brilliant staff, rode up to the doors of the budding set apart for his reception. The Prince dismounted, and the people cheered again. He entered the house, but after a few moments came out again, and stood at the vestibule while the general officers in attendance were formally presented by Sir George Brown. His royal highness theo reontered his apartmeota, and did not afterwards make his appearance, though the crowd lingered about the entrance in hopes of catching another glimpse of the Prince of Wales. By half-peat 6 o'clock the people dispersed, with the exception of a few loitering privates and curious women from the camp. Subsequently the Prince dined with the officers of the lit Battalion at the Orernadier Guards, of which regiment he is colonel. Liseaderes Nero :—" Nothing could be more judi cious and becoming than the provision which has been made for the accommodation of his royal highness. The osteissible ehjeet of his visit has never been lost sight of for a moonset, end while the furniture is neat and the de- ooratioos elegant, there has been no attempt at finery or display, and the heir apparent to the crown. while surged for a while in the study of his military profession, is lodged and attended to with a quiet simplicity which would please in the case of a nobleman of rank and lea uence, but which is truly gratifying when the personage for whose comfort all the arrangements are made is the future monarch of this empire. The visit of his royal high ness will effect two important objects—it will gratify the loyalty of the Irish people, and it will give the Prime him self a knowledge of the active duties of life in the camp. So plain and unostentatious is the group of huts known as the Head-quarters Block that the strangers would gluiest be at a loss to discover it, without the friendly Cl=of a garrulous carman or loitering soldier. -quarters lie at the distance of some hundred yards from the main body of the camp, and in the centre of the block he will notice a small hut with white canvas roof, fronted by a small but neat garden. This unpretending structure is the residence of the Prince. Its interior has been fitted up anew, with due regard to elegance and com fort. The walls of the apartments are oovered with white paper, the room, are fitted with the necessary camp furoi- tore, but while every preparation is in the hest tote, there is nothing unusual or showy. There is nothing, in fact, to distinguish the exterior of the building from the exterior of any ordinary hut, except the white roof and the brief die. thaw that divides the block from the rest of the camp. I The number of the troops at the Curragh has been some- what overstated. The Ist Royal Drape*, and the 11th and 15th Humus are under canna, In the different squares are stationed the troops of the Royal Horse Artillery and EluaL Artillery, the 15th Caapaay Royal Enginthrs, the 6th traiallion of the Military Train, the Commiaearist Staff Oriepa t ilsi 4 let Wallies Grenadier Guards, let betaßion Rifle Ist betake 11th Foot let betake 15th Feet, betallion 17th, and the 36th, 86th, and 96th Bail ments, which , shag with several troops of the Ist Royals and the 4th Light Dragoons, stationed at New mike • total of 11,000 men, end not 15,000, as stated. These different regiments were to tam part in the review annouseed for yesterday. ILajor-General Ridley is the general of division ; Major-Geresel Parlb7 commands the ; Colonel Philpott t h e artillery, in which are in cluded several batteries of Armstrong guns ; and Mojal. Gtheral Shirley, the Hon. Colonel Percy, and Colonel Hal liday are in command of the three briga d e, of infantry. It is understood that the duration of the Prince's stay at the Curragh will be about six week.. The freesisn's Journal says :—" The Irish gentry would be delighted to honour the Prince ; and he has expressed a desire to gratify their wishes. After the first month of ' hard work' he will bid • temporary farewell to the Grenadier Guardi s o whom be will be attached daring the Curragh dun and take • run to the south. Thence he may cross Shannon into Connaught for • few days, and, after • pause in the Viceregal Lodge, make his respects to Ulster. we hear, are the future arrangements of the Prince."

THE PRINCE OF WALES AT THE CURBACIEL Before entering upon the real object of his visit, the Prince of Wales has delighted the lovers of the manly game of cricket in Dublin by taking pert in • match which wee played in the private ground of the Viceregal lodge ea Tuesday, between the Cavalry Brigade and the Viceregal Household. The company was select and fashionable, and the Lord-Lieutenant kept the score. The Prince took much interest in the match, his fielding at long slip being very good, whilst but for a misadventure (cutting a crooked slow ball into his wicket) he might have shown his prom' with the let. To the sincere admirer of cricket nothing world possibly be more pleasing than to witness the gusto with which his royal highness entered into the spirit of the game. According to auseassmiest the Prince left Dublin for the Curragh ou Tuesday. The hoer for which the depar ture was fixed was set gess:ally known, but the desire of witansiog it brought large crowds to the King's-bridgc Terminus early in the day. Groups of anxious spectators loitered about the platform and watched the trains as they left. Many persons visited the camp and strolled about its squares, waiting the arrival of the Prince. At bet it be. came known that his royal highness would leave by special train at half-past four o'clock. The crowd be. came gradually denser sod more restless. Every available spot for witnessing the departure was taken advantage of, and hundreds of ladies end gentlemen occupied forms placed upon the platform. The directors of the Greet Southern and Western Railway Company made all the necemary pre. partitions with a promptitude ands regularity which ensured the approval of every person present. The carriage which was prepared for the reception of the Prince was elegantly decorated sod furnished. Splendid bouquets were nattered upon its seats, and its exterior was decorated with the rarest flowers and the brightest evergreens. Ala royal highness arrived from filo Vioe-regal Lodge at precisely the boar appointed, accompeand by his Excelleocy the Lord-Lieutenant, Major-Gensnil Bruce, Colonel )(tippet, and the officers of the Lord- Lieutenant's household, and was received by the chief railway officials. Having taken leave of the Lord- Lieutenant the Prince of Wales, accompanied by Major- General Bruce, his Private Secretary, and Colonel KeePel, took his seat in the royal carriage, and the directors of the Company and the officers of the army who were proceeding to the currach haviug entered the carriages set apart far them, the train started for the Camp. A loud cheer bumt from the crowd, and was protracted until the but carriage paged out of sight at the turning. The train proceeded at the rate of fifty miles an hour, passiog quickly by the in terniediate stations until it arrived at Saltine. At emery bridge and platform along the lies were hoodredsof specta tors, who cheered loudly.

SPAIN AND SAN DOMINGO. Not only are nearly fifty persons in prison at Santiago for opposing the so-called spontaneous annexation to Spain, but General Ramon Mello., one of the founders of the Dominican Republic, has been exiled to St. Thomas, whence he has ad dressed the following letter to General Santana : Saint Thomas, June a Genets!,--The time has come when I ought to remind you by this letter that I am not a subject of her Catholic Majesty, and have never desired to change my nationality for any other, because from Feb. 27, 1844, I have sworn to be a citizen of the Dominican repulXie. I have done every. thing for the independence of the republic, sparing neither sacrifices nor services. For these FORIOIOI it has never entered into my imagination to bee Spanish general, not having any right to that title, since I have done nothing to merit it. Besides, it would insider me ridiculous, and would make me lose consideration in the eyes of the !Spaniards themselves. I shall always be pleased to wee my country maintain with the Spanish nation, as well as with all the other civilised nations of Europe a ndl America relations which, by assuring its wellbeing, may establish the recognition of its indepemdd. once end self-government. I may add that I shall always do my duty as well as I can as a pod citizen of the republic. It is with these sentiments that I have the honour toremain Yours, Sm., It. MILLI..

The ventleemn selected as consul at Yarmouth is M. A. Derfoupw tie, and in intmduciog himself to the magistrates he stated that his government had determined in future to " look more closely into them things." EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (nos ous owl. PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING. This afternoon Count Walewski, as Minister of State, delivered the prizes to the artists whose works at the biennial exhibition have been ad ' judged worthy of special reward. The sight was a very pretty one. The grand saloon, with the pic tures hanging round it,was quite filled with artists and their friends, among whom were a great many ladies. Count Walewski, supported by Count Niewerkerke and the jury, in the embroidered green uniform of tho Institute, presided at a table placed on a dais under M. Ivon's picture of the Battle of Solferino. He delivered a very neat speech, in the course of which, so far from agreeing with the ma jority of the critics who have been writing on the exhibition for the last two months, that French art is in a state of decadence, he asserted that since 1865 the progress has been most marked and satisfactory. In a glow of patriotism he said that France, after having emulated Greece in letters and Rome in arms, seemed now destined to inherit the genius of Rely in art. He begged the artists who heard him not to believe that the present age was devoted only to the worship of the golden calf. If (said he) you hear of large fortunes suddenly made, do not envy the possessors, for be well assured this fortune will come into your bands. In these days a parvenu does not buy " parchment's" but pictures, for his letters patent of nobility. After this speech, the names of the laureates were called, and as they came up to the dais to receive their medal or decoration, and to shake bands with Count Walewski, the beet known names were loudly applauded. Madame Henrietteßrowne and other ladies who have gained prizes declined the ordeal of publicly claiming them, and did not answer to their names. The Countess Walewaka and Count de Morny were present. M. &inert, the Public , Minister, concluded his speech against K Mirds to-day. He was very severe, and his observations frequently produced I most violent interruptions on the part of K Miris, who was several times called to order by the presi dent, and threatened to be turned out of court. At the close of the speech for the prosecution it was stated by MM. Plooque and Marie that M. Mat Men (M. Mire,' counsel) was ill in bed, and would certainly not be able to attend in court before Friday or Saturday. They could not con veniently present the defence of the parties eieiles, Count Simeon de Chassessot and de Pontalba, until they had heard what was said for Mires. In consequence the court adjourned the further hear ing till Friday, but with the understanding that if M. Mathieu should not then be sufficiently re covered to attend, K Plocque will go on. At the close of the sitting to-day Mires, against the advice of his counsel, M. Plooque, persisted in calling four witnesses, all his clerks, who deposed in identical terms that when M. Monginot, the accountant, came to the counting-house to examine' the books he said, " I am M. Mouginot, the expert, and, consequently, a venomous animal. I come to pluck Mires, to bring out everything against him, and keep what might do him good in the background." The president and the public minister simultaneously exclaimed that these depositions were atrocious libels upon M. Monginot, and that their exact verbal agreement was evidence of their untruth. K Monginot being called upon, said he would not condescend to answer such absurd calumnies. The Patric, in contradicting the statement of "a foreign journal" that negotiations relative to the Roman question are actively going on, and that a result is at hand, gives the very jejune and unsatisfactory reason that no negotiation can be commenced until France is officially represented in Italy. This is • mere quibble upon words. The great act of the recognition of Italy was negotiated non-officially by M. Vimercati at Fontainebleau, and it is quite certain that the courts of Paris and Turin ate at this moment in just as intimate com munication as if their respective ambassadors were installed in their posts. The Patric implicitly admits this when it says that the Roman question is to be decided Nat ltre revalue) by a common agreement between France, Italy, and Rome. How does it know that if there are as yet no negotiations It moreover says that the arrival in Paris of the Duke de Gramont, who is coming from Rome on leave, is an event to be waited for before negotia tions (meaning of course formal negotiations) can be opened. It has been erroneously announced that • masonic lodge, bearing the singularly appropriate name of " Persevering Friendship," initiated the Persian embassy in the rites of freemasonry on June 29. The fact is that the lodge assembled for that special purpose, but the Persians did not come to the scratch. The Bourse was firm at the close, the Rent. rising 10e. and 5e., leaving off at 67fr. 65c. and 671 r. 60c. Mobilier rose 3fr. 75c. The Orleans Railway rose 6fr. 25c., and Lyons Ofr. M. G4r6me has been charged by the Emperor to paint a picture representing the reception of the Siamese ambassadors at Fontainebleau, for which purpose he was present at the ceremony. This picture will be a pendant to the one at Versailles, in which Siamese ambassadors are seen (but not crawling on their hands and knees) before Louis XIV. Queen Cluistina of Spain passed through Bourges the day before yesterday on her way to Vichy. NEW CHURCHES IN WPATMINRYLIL—The Bishop of Loudon has fixed Friday, the 12th inst., fur the conse cration of the church of St. Peter, Great Windmill-street, Haymarket, to the erection of which the Earl of Derby gave the munificent donation of 3,500 f., and 1,000/. towards an endowment for the incumbent. Him lordship laid the foundation stone on the 25th of June, 1860. The district for which the church is intended is taken out of the parish of St. James's, and contains a ppulation of 4,000, by farthe greater portion of whom are of the poorer class. The building, with the site, will coat about 11,001., towards which a sum of 1,0001. has yet to be raised. Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince Consort are contributors to the fund. The Rev. George Smith, 11. A., bas been appointed to the in. cumbenc►. A new church, dedicated to St. James the Less, in Upper G►rlen-street, the foundation stone of which was laid by Vice-Chancellor Sir W. Page Wood on Aprill2, HMO, is rapidly approaching completion. It is a beautiful structure, and is erected at the sole cost of the daughter of the late Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, who was a canon of Westminster. v. COMPENRATICM ro ACCID6I4TB. —The heavy damages awarded against the Great Northern Company in the action brought by the representatives of the late Mr. Pym has had the effect of directing the attention of several gentlemen connected with railways to the im of improving the law on the subject. A. con to4c.Deftrecently held on the subject was attended by Mr. Moon, chairman of the London and North Western ; the Earl of Shelburne, chairman of the Great Western ; Mr. Schuster, chairman of the London. Brighton, and South Coast ; Mr. Love, chairman of the Eastern Counties Mr. Deniaon, chairman of the Great Northern ; Mr. Wickham, LP., chairman of the Lancashire and Yorkshire; Mr. chairman of the Midland; Mr. Hodgson. xls , c h a irman of the North British ; Captain Mangles. of the London and South Western, end a number of other di rectors of various compsoire. It was resolved that • future conference should be held, at which all the railway com panies of the unitod kilizilom should be invited to decide in what manner the sluestion should be brought under the con sideration of parliament. The first street rail way for general omnibus tra ffi c in the enintrin of Livori was opened on Tuesday. on the lino of road from Remington to the Old Swan, by Magri. Busby and Co. The distance is about three miles. THE COMET. Last evening, the sky being almost cloudless, an excellent view was obtained of the comet, which shone with intense brilliancy. Thousands of persons were to be seen from their windows, the housetops, and in the streets. eagerly watching the progress of the unusual visitor. Mr. J. R. Rind writes :—" Having obtained observations of the splendid comet now visible on three successive even ings, I have been enabled to calculate the elements of ite orbit, which I now transmit, together with a few particulars founded upon them. The comet arrived at its le .st distance from the sun about 1 o'clock on the morning of June 10, in heliocentric longitude 244 deg. 35 min., being then separated from him by 76,000,000 miles. It crossed the plane of the earth's orbit from the south to the north side in longitude 278 deg. I min. on June 28, in a path inclined 85 deg. 58 mi n , to the elliptic. The true orbital motion is direct. Its dis tance from the earth on Sunday evening was rather over 13,000,000 miles, ands little lees than 15,000,000 at 11 o'clock last evening. It is therefore receding slowly from us, as well as from the sun. The apparent length of the tail last night wss 70 deg., corresponding to a true length of 16,000,000 miles. The nucleus, which is extremely bril liant, was about 400 miles in diameter. The comet has a very striking and interesting appearance in the telescope ; but it would be difficult to describe it without the amid ante of a diagram. It is certainly not the comet of Charles V. (1556), the return of which has been anticipated about this epoch. I subjoin a few places, calculated from my I elements, which will sufficiently define the track in the heavens during the ensuing week : FOR MILAN MIDSIGHT AT GREENWICH. Bight Amendos.

The official declaration of the poll was made yes terday by the Mayor, as the returning Aker, in the pre sence of about 5,000 people. The votes given for the respective esedidates were proclaimed as follows :—For Wftnalui . Griffitlui Hill The Mayor then declared Mr. Weguelin duly elected • member for Wolverhampton. The statement war received with much disapprobation by the crowd, but with cheers from the hustings. Mr. Griffiths, in along speech, said some hard things of his suocemful opponent, whom he charged with intimida tion, and he said that be had drawn op a petition, and should certainly prosecute it, with a view to the timeeting of Mr. Weguelia oa account of the intimidation which his party had nerd. If the reports which had been brought in to his (Mr. Chillithes) committee were correct, the constituency of Wolverhampton would soon have again to record their votes at another election. Mr. Griffiths announced himself as determined again to contest Wolverhampton against any man but Mr. 'Men, or a local man better ciled than himself to be the representative of that borough. Mr. Hill announced himself as about to retire from the borough as a candidate for a few years. At the argent request of Mr. Griffiths, the mowd separated y. The streets re mained thronged up to a late hour on Tuesday night, but nothing more serious took place than the throwing of Menem, whereby a woman's arm was cut open, after the despatch of our parcel on Timidity evening. MYSTERIOUS DEATIL-A BRADFORD SURGEON APPREHENDED ON SUSPICION. A young woman named Martha Curtis, ser vantunaid or housekeeper to Mr. William Mickley, me at Great Horton, near Bradford, died on Tues. ry e ' or Wednesday in last week, at the house of her masks, who is an unmarried man. Report gave ries to the suspicion of some improper conduct. She had been ill latterly, and Mr. Mackie was her only medical attendant, and her sister from %%laden her only nurse, except that her mother came one hour before her death. She died on Tuesday or Wednesday last, and within twenty-four hours the body was placed in • ooffin and removed from Great Horton to Wileden, where the deceased was subsequently interred by her friends in the roma:dot the Wesleyan chapel. The reports abroad last week and the beginning of this, led Mr. Gumbo), the chid constable of Bradford, to seek the coroner's authorit to disinter the corpse. This was accordingly done. Tbebod y was exhumed on Tuesday morning last, and Mr. J. N. Terry and Mr. Wm. Parkinson, surgeons, of Bradford, made a post-mortem examination. An inquest was subsequently opened on that day by Mr. J. It. Ingram, deputy-coroner of Halifax at the New Inn, Wiledeo and the e vidence tendered by Mr. Terry (which was corroboratedted by Mr. Parkinsoa) went to show that the death of the deceased had been caused by peritonitis, and that she bad (riven birth to a five or six months' child, five or six days before her death. The inquiry was then adjourned for a week (Tuesday next), in order to the pro• duction of other evidence, and also for an analysis of the contents of the stomach nd intestines. Mr. Maekley, it is said, had retunred • certificate of death in which the cause was ascribed to enteritis, dating it two or three days before the actual time of death. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Markley was apprehended at Horton, and remanded by the Mayor of :Lea - ord till Saturday. MELANCHOLY BOAT ACCIDENT AT CHIP- PENHAM. On Townlay evening, between 7 and 8 o'clock, an accident attended with fatal consequences occurred on the river Avon at Chippeuham. Some time during that evening the Mimes Awdry, accompanied by their brother, Mr. West Steward Awdry (second son of West Awdry, Eaq., the respected under-sheriff of Wilts, and cousin of Sir John Awdry), the Misses Lowther, of Derry Hill, near Chippeuham, sad the younger members of Mr. W. Awdry's family, went out for an aquatic excursion near Moeckton House, which stands by the side of the river. One of the boats was a large our, and contained four persons, and the other, • smeller one, contained the Mince Lowther, and Mr. W. S. Awdry. The boats proceeded quietly along till they woe to the piece of dead water above the (Nivea ham Grist Mill, when the large boat was turned round, and unfortunately came late collision with the smaller one, capsizing it, and throwing its occupmts into the river. The elder Miss Lowther clung to Mr. Awiliy, who made a desperate effort to carry her ashore. Although a good swimmer, so tightly did the young lady cling to him, that all his attempts to save her and himself were un availing, and they both sank. The scene unw became terribly painful. Tho heartrending cries of the young ladies in the larger boat attracted the attention of the son of the Rev. Mr. Clarke, who fortunately happened to be near, and lie boldly plimged into the water, and rescued the younger Miss Lowther, bringing her to land just as she was on the point of 'linking. By this time assistance was obtained, and books and grappling irons procured to search for the bodies of the two persons who hail dis- appeared ; but they were not recovered till 11 o'clock the same evening, when, of course, life was extinct. Mr. West Awdry was absent at the Wilts Quarter Sessions, at War minster, and on the cad intelligence being forwarded to him wituraed in time to see the bodies taken out of the stream. The deceased young gentleman was to have left home 02 Monday next, for the purpose of taking a 001221018i011 in the army. It is • singular coincidence that the father of Miss Lowther was drowued in India some time since. liar mother is absent iu London. The deceased young lady and her sister were on • visit to Mr. W. Awdry, at 31onektea House.—Bath Chronicle. REROISY IN A Bor.—The Rev. H. M. Baker, chaplain to the works of Messrs. Silver and ('n., North Woolwich, narrates the following :—Near North Wool' with is a small inlet known as the •'Berge Creek." Thither three lads—John Jams., Frederick Richards, and a boy named Cumming—repaired on Thurolay to bathe ; none (4 them could swim, and suddenly all three by the ebb of the current were taken out of their depth, and were stroz4ling together in the water. A poor lad named Patrick limo, aged only 16, heard their cries for help and ran tin their rescue ; he threw himself without a moment's hesitatioa Into the river and swam at once to them. The three la , .Yr seised him with the clutch of death, and all would have sunk together had not Hayes dived beneath the water, and by a vigorous effort disoutangled himself from their grasp. He would not, however, give thent uP but swam towards them once more. By this time the boys James and Richards had sunk, and the hair aelY of the other boy (Cumming) was visible fleeting no the surface of the water. Seizing this, and supporting the boa! , ° P . pareatly lifeless, with one hand, Hayes swam to 40 0 ° with the other, and after restoratives bad been applied' animation returned, and the boy's life was saved. ,"" =of these boys are very poor • a small sum of woe, raised among their neighbOurs to defray the fune; ral expenses of their children.
