SPANISH AND ITALIAN REFUGEES. Yesterday evening a Meeting was held at the Londe . 4 tavern, for the relie f of the Spanish and Italian. Re. {ogees. Mr. WILLIAM STEPHaNs having been called to the Chair, Mr. GALLOWAY, who had been principally instru. rental in calling the Meeting, stated briefly the object for which they were assembled, and enforced with con siderable warmth and effect the duty of assisting the u nfortunate sufferers, not merely on the ground of humanity, but in consideration of the cause in which' they suffered. He concluded his speech by proposing g 'ring of Resolutions declaratorylof the sufferings of these unfortunate men, and requesting of the Lord Mayor to call, at the earliest opportunity, a Common Council, for the purpose of voting, from the funds of the Corporation, a sum of money for their relief, and agreeing to a Petition to Parliament, praying the Legis lature to make some permanent provision for them. • Mr. MEARLX spoke in favour of the Resolutions. He' trusted the benevolent exertions of the public or of in dlviduals would not be weakened or suspended in con sequence of a report which had gone abroad that his Grace the Duke of Wellington was in negotiation with the king of Spain for the purpose of obtaining per mission for those unfortunate sufferers to return to their naive country, and to reside there unmolested. Their titer's was out of the question. Even if such permis sion were obtained, how were they afterwards to sup. pot t life ? They were either professional men, whom erle necessarily deprived of the usual sources of erno• lument and employment, or men whose property had been confiscated, and which they could not hope to see restored under such a Government as that of Ferdi., nand. He felt more acutely on this subject, because, l having himself been recently in Spain, he had expe rienced many kindnes-es Irom the friends and conuec- I Lions of these persecuted men. He feared that any . provision from the Legislature or the Government was not to be expected, and that they must look solely to the benevolent efforts of individuals and of the public. Mr. Bow RING said that an intimation had been re, cently received from the Lord Mayor of his readiness to preside at a public meeting, either in the Common Roll or at the NlAnsion House, for the purpose of en tering into a subtc.iption for the relief of the sufferers.. Such being the case, it would perhaps be better if .tlE present meeting were to confine themselves to resolo• Lions declaratory or the distresses of the Spanish Re fugees, and retitle-tins of the Lord Mayor that he would, as early as possible, call a public meeting with a iidw tsi their telteE His friend ('lr. Galloway) would not thus be preluded from proposing any ulterior measure it it should be • judged necessary. These unhappy suf. firers had peculiar claims on the sympathy and beneiro lence of Englishmen, ftr they were victims to the cause of liberty. If, in consequence of resistance to a despot, who wished to govern At the suggest on of his uncon trouled will, any of those he had the honour of addressing, were forced to take refuge in a foreign land—above all., in a land of fie,dom—viculd they not consider them selves as having a well ginunded claim to kindness and protection ? Though the Government of this country bad not perhaps done all that, might be expected, will it could not be denied that they . had rendered Irv) efficient service. The number which ar first stood on ttie list for relief was 700, of whom lout or five hun =dred had already, by their own exertions, °Wailed some me ins of. support, and withdravin themselves from' the list. It was some proof of their general merits, that, out of so small a number, not less than two had been deemed worthy of filling some of the most respectable chairs in the London University. Notwithstanding their distresses, their conduct was irreproachable.' Never was so large a portion of misery combined with so small a portion of vice. After a few observations from other speakers, Mr. GALLOWAY withdrew his Resolutions, and those of Mr. BOWRING were agreed to. " Mr. FRESHTIELD informed the Meeting that the Lord Mayor, he had reason tobelierre, would be most willing to preside at a public Meeting for the relief of the unfortunate sufferers. Mr. Alderman Wood would have attended upon this occasion, had he not been called suddenly from town, in consequence of the illt.ess of Mrs. Wood. He trusted that something effectual would be done, now that the public attention was called to the subject. Indeed he had recently received various sums, and many communications, into the details of which that was not the proper opportunity for entering. One communication was trom Mr. Secretary Peel—(Rear, hear)—and another from Mr. Labouchere, the banker. would generally state to the Meeting, that, :inc. public attention had been lately called to the subject, R )yal and munificent donations had been transmitted to him— (Applause). After some other Gentlemen had spoken, a deputa tion was api:ointed to convey the sense of the Meeting to the Lord Mayor. On the suggestion of Mr. BILEADEN. the Proprietor of the London Tavern, a subscription was entered into in the room, which, before our departure, amounted to upwards of 1501. ' A great number of individuals have been admitted to the freedom of the cities of Dublin and Cork by the respective Corporations, who are known friends to Pro. testant ascendancy.

Toe Coloiribian Vice Consul has given notice that the G Arernment of Colombia has resolved to farm the' branches of the public revenue appropti tied by law to the payment of the English Loans, and to place the produce of tie same in the hands of a person duly au- thori ed by the bondholders, if they agree. If the pro. , duce of the revenue should prove inadequwe to the full discharge. of the engagements to the foreign creditors, the Government will attend to any suggestions from the bi.ndhoiders for providing additional means. TRIAL SY JCRY.—The following anecdote is related by an eminent Barrister—The wife of an inhabitant of a small town in vie West of England having . died sud denly, and it being known that the deceased had lived on no ver y friendly terms with her husband, from whom she'had received repeated beatings, a report obtained currency that she had died from ill-usage; and the husband was taken up and put upon his trial for man slaughter. On the trial the husband called several witnesses to prcve that he had never beaten his wile, esce l .t upon very great provocation ; and that the do. ceased, from her temcer, required wholesome correction. Two surgeons swore that the death was natural, and that it had not been at all occasioned by unkind treat ment ; and tie general impression of the Court and Jury seemed t') be, that the man had been needlessly, dragged before a tribunal of justice. When the Clerk of the Court went to the Foieman and inquired if the Jury were agreed on their verdict, the Foreman replied emphatically " Yes." The Clerk then said—" What is your verdict, Gentlemen?" . To which the Foreman, with still greater emphasis, replied, t , „Sated her rigid." ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE. Dating the temporary suspension of theatrical per formances on .the Covent Garden stage, the company have engaged the taglish Opera House, where every exertion will be used for the entertainment and accom modation of their friends and patrons. We rejoice to hear of this arrangement, as the loss of a week's en gagement would be severely felt by many deserving actors, who are burthened with large families ; and as such, we heartily . wish them success. The performances list night were, the Play of Richard the bud, and the petite Comedy of King, Charles the Second. KEA N played the tyrant Gldster.' and in this small theatre, his excellencies in .the cha racter were displayed to the greatest advantage; all the , prominent and established points were given with a: tome, which reminded us of his performances of the , past, in his happiest days, and the applause which he received was proportionate to his exertions. In the-After piece, CHARLES KEMBLE'S Mery Monarch was, as• usual, excellent, and he was well supported byWhaticri, as &whaler. FAWCETT'S Captain Copp displayed all that richness of humour which invariably maks the efforts of this sterling actor; whilst Miss COWARD % Nary gave proof that she is rapidly advancing to the first rank of her profession in this line of characters.— The House was well attended. IRELAND. BOItRIS-IN-OSSOtIY, Nov. 13. A very numerous and respectable Meeting w 4 as held in this town yesterday, for the purpose of forming a Brunswick Club. The Chair was taken sub die by CHARLES WHITE, E•q who mai the following letter amidst the acclamations t f the assembly : " AVIKOTON, Nov. 3. 4 ‘ Stu—l have the honour to actnowledge your letter of the 25th, informing me that the • tertantry on the manor of.

" I have the honour to remain, Sir, " Your obedient humble servant, "To Charles White, Esq. Charleville." "CIIANDOS. The first resolution was proposed . by th- Reverend MARCUS MONK. in a very learned and eloquent address. He was followed by . the Rev. JOHN ISERESPORDs He was happy, he said, to see so many of his iriends and Protestants fellow countrymen around him. It proved that this part of the cout.try had been at length aroused from its torpid state. The tune was now come when every Piotestantmust declare his hos t ility to a faction, who, uncler the pretence of equal rights, manifestly aim at Popish Ascendancy, and make a boast that they will trample upon the Established Church—fCi its of They, never shall).

Bot he would say, that when the viper lifts its head to bite, you have no alternative but to tread the reptile into the g ound—(Great cheering). WILLIAM WELLESLLT DESPARD, Esq. a ;late man pith a mighty heart l jumped upon the table, and made , a very animated speech. He characterised the thing called 4 1 the Pr otestrtnt Declaration" .15 the most feeble attempt, and at the same time the most impudent, which the Association had as yet had recourse to. Agents of that seditious assembly had been sent through the court y to extort, by menace andintio.idation, sig natures to that paper ; but in the parish . to %shish be belonged, comainkg I,lOO.Protestants, not more than six or seven individuals had been frightened into com pliance. He legrette I that a 'few Gentlemen, who might be termed the Aristocracy of the county, stood aloof fiom their Protestant brethren; but toe time might soon come whet they would be glad to take refuge under the 'banners of the Brunswick Clubs. It was a cheering sight, however, to see so many loyal and respectable men coning f t ward at the call of the Constitution; and he was paiticularly delighted that a large portion of those whom he addressed consisted of those tried champions of their count: tbe ,toner. --'.that Name sof fear, • • Upleasing to the' Lawless ear. —Mr. Despard was wdroply sheered. s he Rev. CHRISTOPHER GARSTIN regretted that an opinion prevailed amotigst the Romati Catholic peasan try that the forrnati n of these Clubs originated in a feeling, of hostility towards them ; such a n • torn was perfectty unfounded. The measure wa., altogether a defensive oi.e, and the only enemy they sec-onised 'was the Catholic Association. The Cath• Ise peasantry . would, ere long, be convinced that the Biunswickers 'etre their best friends, ff he were nut persuaded Of this, he would east have come here; for he had always lived on the most friendly ter ms with his It man Ca thole parishionets, betw Ist whom and himself a con stant exchange cf kind and neighbourly offices sub sisted. He should regret all interruption of that kindly irriercoarse, nor would he :save joined the Bruns% ick Club if he could have been persuaded that there was in its constitution or objects any thing derogatory to that Gospel, which united with "glory to GOD in the highest, peace on earth and good w ill towards men."

The Otsory men mutt bun the advance guard of a conlitutional force to drive back those fierce invaders into their blood-stained territoi y.(Cheers). The Rev. FRANCIS LODGE spoke at consiierable length, and was tolloArd by the Rev. Mr. MORTON, Captain Bzwrora. M , . W. HAMILTON, and others. At four o'clock Mr. WHITE left the Chair, and in a few minutes the town WAS as dull and solitary as usual. Upwards of 500 pers( , ns enrolled themselves in the Club. No interruption was offered to the proceedings, but the Brunswickers, in returning to their homes, were assailed with loud yells and menacer by the diggers of potatoes in the fields. The East India Company's ship Reliance arrived at Calcutta the 29th of May, and it was expected that she mould sail for China early in August. Thursday Mr. Samuel Knight, a farmer, residing in Davies-street Oxford-street, was hustled by a gang of thieves, at Kingston Fair, and robbed of four hundred pounds in Bank of England notet and cheques. Amongst the latter was ore for the sum of 2091.45. upon Wells and Co. Lombard -street; and another for 501. upon Grauze and Co. Threadneedle.street. A strange man sent a lad, the same day, with the 501. cheque to the banker's but the payment of it had been stopped; and when the lad returned to the place whete the man had app inted to meet him, he "cat not to be found. EXTENSIVE COMBIATION OF WORKMEN IN SA DDLEWORTH: FROM THE . MANCHESTER HERALD. A comiiina ion of the workmen employed in the s'nnllen manufacture, in the large and populous district f Saddleworth, is at present in existence, which pro tithes in it, effects to be highly detrimental to the pros perity of that bitten° flourishing township. It appears that some time ago a few of the master manufacturers, taking advantage of a temporary stagnation of trade, began to pay their work people in kind instead of cur• rency, in consequence of which the latter formed them. selves into a union, and raised a fund for the purpose of prosecuting those masters who were girilty of such illegal proceedings.. So far the thing was good, and *as encouraged by a number of the respectab!e manufac turers and other inhabitants. But this state of things did not long continue. A number of designing persons from a neighbouring township came amongst them, and represented how formidable they might render them selves to their employers, if they became masters of a considerable fund. In consequence 4 this mischievous advice, they formetithemselves into a union, for the pur pose. as they express it, of equalizing wages—began to hold lodges or secret meetings, in different parts of the township, and bound themselves by a secret oath to abide by the rules of The society, and not leave it on any account whatever. These proceedings were carried on for some time unknown to the manufacturers; but the fund having increased to upwards of 1,000/ they be gan to exult in the success of their plan, and no longer made a secret of their intentions. In' short, a more complete system of orgarization could not have been formed ; and to such an extent has it been carried, that, as we have been credibly informed, there is scarcely a public-house or shop in the whole township which has not subscribed to the union, in order to preserve their bu.inesss' Their employers, alarmed at the attitude which this combination of the workmen had assumed, immediatelf formed a union amongst themselves to counteract its effects, and came to a resolution not to employ any men who continued in the union.. The natural consequence of this is, that the men, sooner than renounce the union, have lett their employment, and nearly the whole manufacture ofthe place is in a com plete state of stagnation. The baneful effects of the combination begin already to display themselves, and numerous cases arising out of it are brought forward for the decision e f the Magistrates, who sit once a fortnight, alternately, at De bcross and Higher Mills SPORTING 1N 1 ELLIGENCE. _~._ TATTERSALL'S.

The Foot RAce for £3O aside, between Brown, the Yorkshire man, and Buckley, the Lancashireman, took place on :Diursday, at Doncaster. The Yorkahireman was never headed in the race. When the men had gone once round the course, it was evident that Brown had the advantage; and until the fourth time round he kept gradually having his opponent. When Buckley had gone four times round, he gave up, and rode oil the ground on horseback.

DREADFUL MURDER. Murder in its most hideous character has beep per., petrated in this county, one siretched_ man haling in . his own person united the crimes of parricide and fra tricide, by the destruction of his own father and brother. This tragical event occurred on M mid) , list between twelve and one o'clock in the afternoon, when Jahn and Israel Hutchinson, respectable farmer, were murdered by Joseph Hutchinson, son of the first named, and brother of the second. The per petreter of these horrid enormities fled, but was taken ihto custody the same of ernoon. On Tiles(' .y an inqneA was taken before JOSEPH FRANK, Esq. Coroner of Stockton Ward, when the following evidence was given. William Limb, who was first sworn, .teed that he was son in law to the Lite John, and noodles- in lam to the late Israel Hutchinson, who were pint occupiers of Cowley-house farm, and that he, his wife, aitd child, together with Joseph Hutchinson, the prisoner, a ser vant girl, and two boys, were the whole of the family; that whilst they were at dinner on Monday the prisoner, according to his usual practice, left the table before the rest of the family had done, and went into the back kitchen, which adjoins tt , e room in which they were sitting ; he almost instantly returned w ith a poker in his hand, and struck Israel a violent blow on the back part of his head,who fell with his head upon the table, appa. remly lifeless; the prisoner then aimed a blow at wit ness, and slight!y wounded him on the temple with the same weapon; witness tau and . escaped with his wifs and child to,Eastclose house, ab ut a quarter of a mile di,tant ; on going out of the door he saw prisoner strike his father, who fell ; a slight quarrel occurred in harvest time, but witness believes them to have lived on the most friendly terms since; lie does riot consiJer prito.ier of unsound mind. Elizabeth Reed, who was next sworn, stated that she had lived with the deceaeJ John and Israel llutchimoti for twelve months as home servant ; that she was in the fuldyard solving the. pigs w hen tie murder took place. When she first saw the prisOner he was going from 0 e kitchen to the blacksmith's shop with a gun in his hand to seek for a hammer. lie told her she was to go in and gtt her dinner, and lie would open her the do, r (which he had locked after him).

Sinn af er the perpetration ut vie murder, Joseph llut.:hinson changed his clothes, and having saddled a horse mounted him and rode to D'irh Im, where he put up, as was his usual practice, at Mr. Forsyth% the New. castle Aims.

He slept soundly on the night atter the murders. It is known that he was in a state of derangement three years ago ; and wit'iin the last month his conduct was so out rageous, as to oblige his late father and brother to tie his feet, and floghim ; the recollection of which circum stance is believed to have led to this most appalling event.—Durham Chronicle, Nov. 1.5.
