The second performance of the Mode du Nord, cn &tardily night, wee, if possible, glen an improvement on the first. Its length was diminished by thus quarters of an hour, and thus the audience ware spared the fatigue end exhaustion which the finest performance most produce if it la too much protracted. Tbis wee accomplished (as we bad expected) by some judicious curtailments, by greater rapidity in the action of the pine, and by the absence of encores— that absurd and unmeaning practice which degrades the re presentation cl in opera into a mere concert of ramie. The honor was a, crowded as on the first night, and the audience equally warm in their demonstrations of pleasure. Meyer beer, on being called for at the end of the rend act, was led forward by Coen, to whom zealous and iadefatigable szertions we are indebted for this perfect perfurmanoe of one of the most arduous works ever brought on the musical stage—not merely Du exertions on this particular occasion, bet that admirable Gonne of surtrintendence and diseiplise whereby Costa has rendered tin band of the Royal Italian Opera undeniably the finest theatrical orchestra in the world. Te Miryerbeer himself it has been matter of astonishment that the few weeks paned in reteersals alms big arrival here have Men equally efficacious as the six months thus employed before this opera was produced is Paris. DRURY-LANE. The lessee of this theatre, encourages' by the meets of his Italian opera season at the unprcesdentedly low pylon which he he introdueed, has commenced an autumn muon for English opera on the rams terms. The Bohent.an Girl was performed on Saturday eveaing, is an immense house, sad, on the whole, in a satisfactory manner. The heroine was personated by )liu Lacy Escott, who appeared for the first time in English opera, and was received with gnat and deserts d applauer, due not oaly to her vocal powers, but to her pleasing qualities as an actress. The famous romans*, " I dreamt that I dwelt In marble halls," was encored with enthusiasts. The part of Thaddeus was performed by Dlr. Elliot Haler, who has a weak, though sgreeable, tenor voice, end who acquitted him self respectably. Mr. Hamilton Brabant did great justice to Count Arnbeim, and Mr. H. Corti was amusingly gro toque ea Devihboof. The piece, in Ito mumble, wu well put upon the stage, and the whole performance was heartily applauded. OPERATIC PEOVINCIAL TOUR. A vocal company has been organised for the per formance of opera in the provinces during the autum nal months, under the management of Mr. Beale, greatly exceeding in strength any body of performers ever before assembled for this purpose, and scarcely sur passed even is the metropolis. The female portion includes Chin, Sado, Viardot, Mind, Di at, Sedlateek, and Gas sier. The male performers are Mario, Tamberlik, Gardoni, Grasiani, Tagliatico, Polonini, Sunni, Lorini, Galli, Montt- rail, and Daudet. The talents likewise of Mr. Mellon, Mr. Frank Mori, and Signor Li Calsi, are employed as con ductors. Grist will appear in Norina, Seciramide, and DIM:I4 Borgia; Mario and Gassier in Don Pasquale, Lo Sonnansbido, and Lewis di Loassossrasoor ; Boole in the Partkini, the Troookrrr, and Don Giovanni; Viardot in the Bastriere and 04110 ; and Tamberlik in Masanicle. During the three months of August, Srptembsr, and oo tot er, this powerful company will visit Manchester, Liver pool, Dublin, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Hall, Bir mingham, and Hereford. HEREFORD MUSICAL FESTIVAL. The " Meeting of the Three Choirs" takes place this year at Hereford. It will be held on Tuesday, Wednes day, Thursday, and Friday, tle 21st, 22ad, 23rd, and 24th M August. The principal vocal putonnen are Madame Grid, Madame Clara Morello, Madame Wrier, Miss Moss, Mile ailby, Mr. B.nas Reeves, Signor Mario, Mr. Montem Smith, Mr Busby, sad Mr. Weiss. The organist is Mr. Amon ; Mr. Due presides at the pianoforte, and Mr. Townshend Smith is the g 1 conductor. The instrn mantel band is composed of the most eminent metropolitan performers, and the choral band hu been selected from the throe choirs and choral societies if Hereford, Gloucester, and Worcester. The morning pertrannees at the Cathedral will include Mendelsohn's Rib.s4 and Brous of Praiso. Spohr's Chrsatian'a Fraser, tart's Twelfth Service, and Handel's Merril/4. The evening concerts of miscellaneous 'Buie will be at the Shire-hall, as nasal. EIB,IINGIIAM MUSICAL FESTIVAL. This celebrated triennial musical festival is this year tined to take place on the last four days of August. The preparations fot the street are oa a greater scab of liberality than they have ever bees before, and unusual care ham bean tkvtowed on the musical arrangements. The vocal list somber. abut 350, and the band is csnspoeed of nearly 150 performers. The voila, have been very carefully telected ; there is a Mir proportion from the metropolis, and an equal number from Yorkshire, the remainda bcicg the members of the Birmieghsin Ckeral Society. There are to be rehearsals of the pieces M the programme by the vocalists in the different localities from which they have been chosen. The principal vocalists include nearly all the great names in the profession. En gagements have been wouelnded with Madame 0 risi, Madams Rudersdorff, Madame Castellon, Millie. Doi°, Madame Viardot, end Mies Dolby. With these are Signor Mario, Signor Oardoni, Herr Reichardt, Mr. Sims Sleeves, Signor Lablache, Mr. Weiss, and Herr Formes. Mr. Costa conducts as utak The opening morning of the festival is devoted to the performance of Elijah. On Wednesday morning Mr. Costa's new oratorir, entitled FA will be given. On Thema*, morning the Messiah la to be performed; and on Friday • selection has been made which include, Beethoven's ora torio, the Mount of Olives; Mozart's Requiems; and poeticise of the Israel is Egypt of Handel. The three evenings an devoted to the performance of selections, among which are Mr. Macfarren's cantata Laura ; Mendelmohn's operatic fragment, Lcrely; Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony ; with portions of the Huguenots and the Etoile do Nord. Meyerbetr, we nadentand, has promised to be present at this great music-meeting. The committee of management have been in communication with him, ever since the last festival, with the view of obtaining from hula an oratorio for the meeting about to take plans; in which expeetation, owing to his other engagements. they have beta disap pointed. But we understand he has undertaken to com pose as oratorio for the next festival in 1858 ; and we believe that the purpose of his contemplated visit on this occasion is to stake himself acquainted with the naa f a Birming ham Festival—the powers of its orchestra and chorus—the character of its principal performers, and the various re sources which it affords for the production of a great sacred work. In all these particulars, we think, he will be mire than satisfied ; for, with all his great continental experience, he has yet to learn how sub things are managed in Eng land. The magnificent hall has been undergoing a rouse of de coration If nr the lut two or three months. When completed It will present an appearance of extraordinary splendour. A new mode of lighting from the ceiling is to be adopted, more than twelve hundred burners being employed in ob taining sufficient illumination. Already the applications for tickets exceed that of any former occasion. Madame Riatori has accepted from the French Minister of State • permanent engagement to play in Italian dramas in Paris. She will act three times a-week in the months of Febrauy, Marsh, and April. It is her :at tention neat February to bring to Paris • complete com pany, of which she will be the manageress. Very tempting often were made to her to become • member of the Theatre Francais, but she firmly rejected them. She will, however, to the spring, play there ia the French language once a week, but without Wary, and for charitable purposes only. There is • talk of • new play to be called "Catherine de Media" being sow written espressly Mr her.

At 2 en Saturday afternoon. Mr. Maid, as announced, de livered abets, la the Attorney= leetaresroom, before the members of the Carible District Farmer' Club and other Maids of agriculture. There was a very large attendance. G. H. Hasp, Esq., the president, Meek the chair. Mr. Mesabi sat on the chairman's right hand. He had before him upon the table several bundles of fine specimens of wheat and oats from Tiptree.had estate, which were objects of mach cariosity and admiration. The Pataimure, In opening the proceedings, said-- Gentlemen, it is my duty to Introduce to you to-day a gen tlemen who is well known to all of yen by name, and 1 dere say personally to many present. I have simply to ay that Mr. Meek( has been kind enough to come to Carlisle on ttie interesting occasion, and has very courteously, at elle desire of the committee of the Farmers' Club, came ted to deliver a lecture upon the present prospects of the anneals tare of the country. (Chun.) Mr. Memel was received with oonsiderable applause. After some general preliminary remarks, he said—Gentle. men, I do not come here today pretending to teach you anything in agriculture, because I kaow that many of you I sank very high as practical farmers and improven; and I also know that you hale in this e tasty a nobleman end ' many gentlemen whose sagacity and means have , ft eted an ainant of agricalteval progression and amenemoot alikL litianurable and profitable to themselves and highly teeter =to the restrict. (Hess, hear) But, gentlemen, tt IS by Mg our heads together end comparing notes abet sete Sake proven. The public dinuano• and investigation et doubtful points or new principles dispel prejnaice sod stimulate amendment. Before we had railways we mild bats no great agricultural meetings like that new about, to take place henr. (Cheers.) Rea comity and every parish was locked up in the comfortable assurance of self. sufficient supetiority or supposed perfution—(leughter)— but the curtain was rudely withdrawn when the iron steed hurried the neglectful farmer through rich and glow lug crops, with all the other 'videlicet* of an elevated sod eonsequently profitable occupation. It was tot only the fanner, but also the landlord and general observer, that saw all thie. I don't know a mere suggestive agricul tural monitor than the railway during April tad May—just now when the waving corn has asserted its superiority, and concealed below its stems the weeds, evidences of poverty and eeglec., just conclusions can hardly be arrived at; but in May the tiffanies and impoverishing weed appeals with unmistakeable truth to the pity or censure 01 the calcu lating observer. (Hear.) 'Tis true you are told, "Oh ! the railway runs through the poorest district of our county " yes, but I reply, why is it the remelt ? Because it is wet and nenlrained. You know full well that railways always seek the lowest levels—and common sense tells as that the lowest grails, if properly drained, are naturally always the best. On, but then there is no acted for the water." This is a poor excuse whilst you have the evidence of the great Bedford Level— once a quagmire, but now teeming with fertility owing to drainage by steam power—which causes ea artificial fall Some of you may be aware that I allude to 200,000 sera of land in the neighourhood of Lincoln which was little better than a duck pond, but the water having been thrown out by steam power it has become one of the richest agricultural districts io t:e kingdom. I say again, the question of eget cultural improvement is not dependent upon Mr. Alechi's sauna cr failure. Tiptreo farm might have been brought to the hammer, tint deep drainage on strong ciao would/ still have been a great truth. I know that many a herd battle has been taught over my agricultural suggestions or pretensiens ; hut I only did in sericulture what I would do in any other business—prefer common sense truths to old prejudices. (Hear.) I sin happy to say I have succeeder', and am now well remunerated for my exertions. It is not the man who farms at the least expense who makes the most money—(bear, hear)—on the contrary, the " bread and cheese" principle of non-improvement entails poverty and misery. (Hear.) The real question is, what does it cult per quarter to produce your corn ? Nine times out of ten it will be Vend that those who spend the most money per acre get their produce at the lowest cost, and of coarse make the largest profit. I believe that if rents were doubled—(laughter)—don't be alarmed gentlemen—(rw newed laughter)—the farmers would be better off—(great laughter, and some cries of " Hear, hear," will' expressious of dissent ) — provided—(hear , and laughter)—provided the increase represented the fair interest Or drainage and other anemia improvements. (liege, hear.) It has been well stated by a will known practical farmer (Mr. Hope, of Fenton Biro, East Lothian), that if he spend. 1/. per acre, or 6001. a year on erilifleial_Maelararh—lamenaksii a profit —if he omits to do so ho fans* at a bas—and I believe it, gentlemen. (Hear, hear.) Same of the most successful and wealthy men I know of as farmers are those who have expended ti.eir improved gleans in large agricultural amend meets. ledeed, I know one who, in the course of a long tenure of a large farm, has expended 50,000/. on oibcake, and 25,0001. in artificial matinees—and I believe that is a point which particularly tffeces your country ; there is no secret about it—the gentleman I refer to is Mr. Huileoe, of etiolate,, one of the late Lord Leicester's beet neat I can only say if Too do es he has done you will make the beet of it—buy estates fur yourselves. (Hear, hear.) I call him • king amongst fanners. The scythe is the twiner's great enemy. Cut off your green crops with sbeep's teeth, and cram them well with lin seed or rope cake. Thus yon will spare labour and two outages, waste end manure, and so no. (Hear, hear.) In another part of his lecture Mr. hlechl said. I bear that some of you are still sowing broad-cast, thus depriving yourselves of the horse-hoe. la conclusion, a great many egrioniturel gnestincs are wrrking their way towards a se lotion. The question of guarding the interest of both land lord and leant by the ass of the County Court, and a 'Must', n fur improvements, has brim ably discussed by the i Boeley Farmers' Club in Hampshire. A common sense system of agricultural statiatios has been carried out in ' anent manner and faith by the intelligent members of the Highland Agricultural Society of Sew land. The etre sof brad, meat, beer, milk, sad vegetables, that cmstantly fi )w lato London, so poison the Thames and the popula tion, that folks are real :y thinking it will be pru dent and profitable that the aforesaid necessary articles should be made to fine back to the lands from which they came, and that the farmers should no kepr be easpelled to restore what they have exhausted from the land by bird's dung from Peru, °Bake from every country Ifa the world, and bones from all yards and graveyards oni Christendom. (Lageter ) Yes, gentlemen, I believe human bones are takes from the graveyards abroad and brought to this country for the purpose of growing you , turnips. (Laughter.) Many are doubtless unaware that even the dried flesh and bones of bullacks from South America are ground to powder in London, sown on the land in Nor folk, and consumed as beef by the ishabitants of London, baying merely first passed Into the sheet, cf Science has shown as by mean of our Liebige, Ways, Platelet., and Lawns, that this very solid and comlortableslooking meeting is competed of 75 per cent. of water, 25 per cunt. of wind or gas, sad only 3 per cent. of mother earth, to which we shall all sem* day return. The great mineral theory is now! triumphing, led we know that unlces you fluidise the silica and soda of the soil you cannot have a good glazed standing sop of corn. The ammonia of the air will do this if you give it time, sod the agricultural philosopher nee: flostisg in the atmosphere rounds of beef, quarter loaves, and nearly all the materialism of vitality end humanity. The Royal Agricultural College at Cirencester, which in its early formstian was condemned by many good, honest, practical farmers, has now become an established fact— enlarging the agricultural mind and dispelling the doub's of ignorance by scientific education and research. I feel delighted that its students ors taking high positions se Falai fanners and sawn of estates, sod met almost every number of the Royal Agricultural liteietys Journal contains some of their prig essays. Gentlemen, J I think a college of that kind in this county would eat ruin it. (Laughter.) The labourer is not forgotten in I this g I progress. New se , oils are gradually spring- ing up in hitherto untaught d!stricts, and let us hope that a more general intelligence will remove mob of that prejudice which obstructs amendment. So far es I am personally concerned, I feel sme gratification that I have outlived a great storm of ridicule and censure, and when I am about to leave this busy scene, the reflection that I erected the first new steam engine in my great county, that the first bag of guano sown by me, ridiculed by my neighbours as a mere peppering of the land, will afford me the same gratifien.ion. I feel that the publicity of my sentiments has not been injurious to the genera welfare of British agricultural progress. (lieu, hear.) Before I sit down, permit me to say that I am quite willing and pre pared to answer any questions, or enter upon any details, that this meeting may consider desirable or ussfal. Mr. Mauer added, I would merely mention that I have brought you an honest specimen of my crops. It is growers on very poor barren heath, with not a grain of lime fa the soil. (A laugh.) I only envy you your soil. I don't know what I should grow if I only had your soil. (Laughs Vt.)

(Cheers ) Captain Jamas said be had been requested by the coin mitten of the Farmers' Club to propose a vote of thanks to Mr. Meehi for the very able, talented, kind, and geed humoured way in whisk he had done them the honour of teetering before them. He was glad Mr. Mecei had avail discussion, and there were very few points which he (Cale. Junes), as a practical farmer, long resident in the covey, should feel disposed to differ from, for he thought a great deal of good Was done by pointing out their deficiencies in EVENING, JULY 23, 1865. reertsia reopens as Mr. Meal had dose. But he thought that even Mr. Meal was liable to error, sad that in telling the Jerson of Cumberland what they did in the south, and slava them to follow the rules he laid down, be had forgotten that he bad spoken of ocinditioss which applied to a lower 'sande, which wholly altered the circumstances of the ease. (Hear, bear.) Mr. Mechi said he did not thick garden soil too rich for the growth of wheat. That might ee or, true with regcrd to Tiptree-hail, but he would venture to say that if they grew wheat so in Cumberlaad, from the somber of birds and wire-worse, from the quan tity of tabu, in this clime te—soree parts of the county having • tall of 68 10ch,,, whilst at Tiptree-ball it was only 24 they would find themselves minus the crop before the spring was over. (Hear, hear.) The circumstances were totally different to those side' whine Mr. Mechi had re 'Rived his imprnhion. Again, he would appeal to any prac tical Cumberland termer present to cry if oats, with each a lag, o s humid climate like theirs,would not have been gone If sown uuder Mr. Meehi's regime, before they were shot. If they were to attempt such magnificent wheat as Mr. !Sochi bed shown them be could only 'ay that if it escaped being totally beaten down by the heavy rains by whin; the county was so frequntly visited—Jock weather as they had neently experienoed—ft would suffer most materially from mildew. (Hear) Another matter he had brought egeicat them was that they dll nut always consume their straw. They did not thrash their corn in the field, nor chop up the straw to be trodden is by the cheep ; but they trailed 'everything home to the homestead. ("User," and a laugh.) He did not know how it was, but he sappaed it was from being so " very far north " that they always tried to make as much as they could (laughter)—and they generally c 'strived to get • certain profit oat of their mina straw—(" hear," and laughter); nor was their system altogether übproduc:ive, for by feeding sheep in the spring of the year they generally made something more. The stormy character of the cli mate prevented them from then tong their crops S the field. They might go thither for half-as-hoar or so, and be driven away again by the rain—(laughter)—which d:d not happen where the fell wan only 24.Therefors he thought there would be but little chance of their cropping up the straw for manuring the field. Mr. Mechi said that they pulled off their turnips too much ; but he would venture to tell him that were they net to p 011 cff • et Than quantity they would hove netbing to teed the cattle with in the yard, end out of that they ex pected to make a certain profit. If they pursued the plan rem:wended by Mr. Mecbi, instead of their coops being is the position they were stew, and which had won Mr. Ideal's cemmeadation, they would be utterly destroyed. He did nut deep' that it might answer at Thptree-hall, but Tiptret was net Cumberland, and if any person were deluded enougkto follow such civics in this toasty be would *urn find Monett a ruined man. (" Hear," and laughter.) After all he thought tte best advice to follow was that which was recommended toe friend of his, a unties= who tuck a farm in Cheshire, but knew very little about farming. He wished to do the thing in the best possible style. He was a groat theorist, but did not know much of the practical parr. (Laughter) The ceighbuurng farmers had told him that the question was the climate, and recommended him if he wished to succeed, he must rise with the sun, as cend the nearest and highest hill, see what his neighbours were doing, and then run home as fast as he could and eet his men to work to do the same. (Lend laughter.) He thought if people in general did that they would not he far wren& It was very good advice, end he would recommend it to say gentleman not only coming from the South into Cumberland hut also going from Comberland into any other cocmy. In other war. e, Is would advise them not rattily to enter upon any nose that had not the authority of nig- Ilene to back it. (Hear) In Mr. litchi's system of the appiention of liquid manure be perfectly agreed, and be thought there was no other point debateable which he hail kit untouched. lie bad thought it only proper to set Mr. Mechi right in supposing that the system of cultiva tion applicable to Tip.ree-hail would answer in the climate of Cumberland. (Hear, hear ) They all, however, were deeply indebted to Mr. Mechi for having so courteousl ac. quiesced in tho de of the committee. (" Year, " and cheers.) He would venture to wit, in conclusion, when the buodredth experiment turned up a trump, who was there that would not follow it ? (" Hear," and applause) lie proposed that a cordial and hearty vote of thanks be piece to Mr. Mezhi for his very able lecture, and for tug yes; kind manner in which he had dose them the boaour of coming amongst them. (Cheers ) Mr. GIBBONS was shout to second the motion, when Mr. Alum atkid if wheat was not groan in cottage gardens in Cumberland ? Capt. .14111E8—Not u a role. It is perfectly the mop tiGs 1 tia...4 11 . I b..e never seen it myself. It $ not ac cording to the practice of this aunty. In Yorkshire, where the system of ri:lage allotments prevails, where the la- bosun have their quarters of acne or roods of land, the t.raetice - a for the farmer to find the seed and the labanrer to find the manure. Mr. MECRI—Is not three bushels to tho Use the usual quantity in this county ? Capt. JAMILS—Yu. Mr. M tooi—Well, gentlemen, let me ask you to do ae I have done. Try one bushel to the acre, the two bush( Is, and the three bushels to the acre, and see which gives you the best crop. You will find that the three bushels ruins, and the two will not produce anything like the quantity of one. Try it. I have tried the comparative quantities en different fields for several years, and I have arrived at one definite conclusion. if you will try it, and when I cow amongst you again, are able to say that you have done so and have arrived at a contrary conclusion, all I can say is I shall then be prepared to yield my argument in respect to Cumberland ; but till that is done I hove a right:to jtsdpe by what I hove myself demonstrated. (Bear.) I can see in your fields large patches in your corn where a little extra quantity of manure has happened to fell. Now if the whole field had been treated in the same way it would all have been like it. Gentlemen, I hope to come to tee you again, and when you tell me that you have tried to consume a piece of turnip I with a pre ee of oil-cake, and have not succeeded, I shall take my bet off and make a how. (Laughter.) But I don't be lieve it. (Heir) I know this climate and the Scotch climate well, and the great fault in all places is that they do not farm high enough.

The police aocordingly to. k him into custody, notaithstereling his remonstrance and resistance, as he was cot willing to be separated and torn from his wife in such a manner, having done nothing to warrant his being given into custody. One of the p lice. men who took him into custody, whose name was Butcher, was esceediegly kind and civil to him ab through the pro ceedings. Be was taken in a cab to the Vine-street station, whore he was charged, he believed, with riotous conduct, and resistance to the police. When at the statiouihouse bail was offered for him, but was refused. His clothes were very much torn in the attempt to take him into custody, and his wife proceeded on to Btompton under the protection of two gentlemen whom he had not seen since, and to whose kindliest he wen under great obligation,. He wee not bailed out until late on Monday evening, and the cell in which he was placed was a small piece like "a pig-stye," but perfectly dark, with fourteen persons, who had not room enough to sit down. Moat of the persons there coo fined took off a great portion of their dress. He and thooe confined with him had as much refreshments as they pleased to pay for. All his compaoi AI wets very respeeteble per sons, for they requested that no drunk or disorderly persons might be put in among them. Atter beiog; conveyed to Marlborough-atreet on Monday morning he wee taken hack to Vine street, when he was bailed nut, and on Tuesday morning he was discharged by the police magistrate, with out entering into any recognisance. The Chief Commissioner requested that Mr. Ellis should furni , h him with a copy of the police regulations respecting the admission of persons in custody to bail. Mr. Ellis promised to do so, and also undertook so supply the solicitor for the complainants with 'second copy. Ilimry Ream:loll Ma• quick, aged if, solicitor's clerk, of Oraesiinnitine, entered Ilyik-perk about three o'cleek iu the afternoon of July 1 ; he was tok_u into cusedy by en inspector, for hooting at a passing vehicle, and was con veyed to Vine-street station in a cab.

Was still in the Eyries of the some yeicitor. Mr. Stephen Feukroner, 97, Lucrvstreet, Pimlico, filar factor, said he saw Inspector Hughes striking with his whip tie heads of the people, and hounding the men on t i the attack like a huntsman with a pack of dogs. The people were all in ezcellint humour, and appeared desirous not to interfere with the police. In one of the ch rges made by the police nn the people he saw one man fall like a bullock beneath a violent bli.w of a truncheon, the sound of wh:ch was heard at a con+iderable distance. _ _ Mr. Richard Stiff, linendraper, of Rd street-road, scid tr•ter, hiving seen the placards of the °Ace of Sir Richard Mayne, he went to the park through curiosity. Ho caw a poor boy sitting quietly on the ground, under twelve years of age, and one pi:iceman came up and struck him vie ' lently on the leg with his truncheon; several others fol lowed and did the same, and left the poor bey crying. He also saw a man with a felt hat, who gate no provocation whetever,—he was struck violently on the leg, the body, and the head by different policemen with their truncheons. When the man took off his hat his head was fcund covered with blood. The sound of the blow of the truncheon on the man's head was lake that of a heavy waggon crushing a thick piece of wood. The man was token to the police cake. Witness afterwards went to Park-street, and saw a young me* who was walking quietly with • young lady on his lam. who had his temple laid open by a blow of a polies man's truncheon, and the blood was Sowing profusely. Micob Strand, 00, Tottenham-court-road, hosier and glover, gave general evidence as to the peaceable ciadnet of the people and the violence of the police. Mr. Henry Pickenpack, a native of Schleswig Holstein, of 4, Philadelphia-terrace, Westminster-road, in the employ of Main. Mandel - y, engineers. —Sew much violence on the part of the lielice. One instate° wee that el an old man of 60, who was ko 'eked down because he could not get out of the way fast enough. Witness narrowly escaped himself. Afterwards he had his bat knocked off in Park street, and while trying to recover it, was beaten by five er sir policemen, and severely injured in the head. Was tak:n to St. George's Hospital by a policeman, who remarked on the journey, "It was not fair to maul anybody about who was doing nothing, but they must °hip orders." Remained in the hospital till his wounds were dewed, whin he made his way home. Witness lost his hat, end his clothes were torn and completely saturated with blood. Lest a day and a half in consequence of being too stiff from hie bruises to gob work. The CLief Commissioner remarked, that the witness bad given his eeidenco with great candour end propriety. ' John Pytmont, member of tho Stock Exchange, and te tiding at Notting-hill, said that, wile standing quietly sear the rails, with his three children, who were coder ten years of age, be saw a number of policemen, without tlio allgateet notice, rush upon the people, and indiscriminately attack men, women, and children, who fell to the ground in num bers. He never saw a more respectable assemblage of per son. la the park than upon that occasion. William Reynolds, waiter at a public-houte, 64, Park street, raid th at he was taken into melody whilst talking to en elderly person in the perk on the conduct of the tllies.. Whilst so engaged, he heard an inspector of the colic* tell his men to " go and collar somebody "—(a laugh)—and 403 A " collared ' and several ottervotihmen CIVIC up to ' assist him, who were told by tho poll an net to str.ke witness.
