MR BLEWITT'S CONCERT. Yesterday morning, Mr. Blewitt gave his Morning Con cert at the Surrey Concert Rooms, Kenuington. Our readers may perhaps be startled at the locality above men tioned, but we assure them, that although we did not per ceive any coronets at the for, yet that in the room there was more than one Knight, and the largest number of fair maidens that we have lately had the felicity of being in company with. The kind folks domiciled in the neigh bourhood, who attended, have much reason to be satisfied with the fare which their caterer produced for them on this occasion. The performances commerked with an overture of Romberg s, which was followed by a selection from the Creation, in which Mr. Phillips sang, " In the begin ning, God created the Heaven and the Earth," with much effect. His great effort, however, was " The Snares of Death," from Sir John Stevenson's Oratorio of The Thanks- Orin.- which was these in a manner not very easily to be surpassed. We noticed this piec , .t in our snertion of the Oratorio from which it is taken, and we are satisfied that the praise we then gave was most justly bestowed. Mr. &ahem sang " Luther's Hymn," and was most ably accompanied. by Mr. Harper on the trumpet. if all or chestra trumpet-players had had the judgment of Mr. harper, we think even Mozart himself would have been reconciled to this instrument. Mr. Braham next sang a grand scene, called " Adelgitha," the poetry by Camp bell, and composed by Mr. Blewitt, which had much merit. This was followed by " Kelvin Grove," and " The Blue Bonnets arc over the Border," in which Mr. Braham ac companied himself on the piano-forte very effectively ; Mr. Horucastle sang " Now vanish before the holy beams very respectably. Miss Paton saw , " Jock of Haaletlean," and accompanied herself, with h er' usual taste and judg ment. What a combination of talent is centered in this charming woman ! Miss Love executed Horn's cavatina, " I've been roaming," in a very recherche manlier, and was enthusiastically encored. Mr. Sapio sang " Charms of Love " in a masterly sty'e, and •i!1 effects were sensibly portrayed in the countenances of his fair audience. Sir John Stevenson's duet, " Tell me where is Fancy bred, " was very pleasingly done by Messrs. Horncastle and Phillips; and Miss Love with Mr. Sapio charmed the company in Rossini's " Ah se de male niici!" from Tancredi. The trios were, " The Heavens are telling," by Mr. Welsh, Mr. Phillips, and Master Bailey; and, " As gaily danced the moonbeams light;" both of which were very pleasingly performed. The accompaniment for flute and violin to the latter was very good, and ably executed by Mr. T. Cooke and Mr. Nicholson. Mozart's comic trio by Mr. Welsh, "La mia Dorahelia," was laughingly executed by Messrs. Welsh, Sapio, and Hoineastle. Mr. Moseheles played his own fantasia of the " Fall of Paris" inimitably. The hap piestl'combination of styles exists in the performance of this highly-gifted person : his execution embraces every diffi culty that can be imagined upon the instrument, while his taste and feeling in adagio movements are such as to charm the sense. Mr. Niclio,son played his fantasia on the flute, to the air of " Atleste Fideles," and was highly and de scrvedly applauded. The orchestra was led by Mr. T. Cooke with his usual ability, and the whole was directed by Mr. Welsh. We cannot but express our high opinion of Mr.Blewitt's tafte in the selection made on this occasion ; and the in strumental accompaniments of Min Paton and Mr. Braham gave the whole a ddletanie character, highly interesting. Kiel the room but stood in a garden, instead of on the " road-side, " the effect of the whole would have been perfect. We do think a summer room for morning con certs, a short distance from town, would be a good spec., and recommend the idea to the consideration of those who remember Ranelagh. DISTURBANCES IN THE MAN UFA C TURING DISTRICTS. The Liverpool Albion of Monday a ys—" We have great pleasure in stating, that there have not been any serious disturbances, in the agitated districts since the occurrence o those of which we have given an interesting narrative below. We have seen accounts from Wigan, Bolton, and ether places, where all remained quiet up to Saturday even ing. Blackburn and Autry were also tranquil. At Man che:ter the populace were pursuing the system of demanding mcney alai provisions; but there hadnot been any tuniul it:erns assemblages since Friday. On Saturday night, we understand, a fire broke out in a carpenter's workshop, but the occurrence was believed to have been purely accidental. S.:e,ral of the rioters ,that had been apprehended in the ri.ighhourhood of Bury have been committed to Lancaster Castle, and others liberated on bail. IVe have seen ac catoits from Leeds, Sheffield, and other places, where all remained tramjuil." The following is an extract of a private letter, dated Livtipool, May I :—" By the:coaches from Manchester it appears all was quiet there, that troops were arriving from all quarters. Two companies of the 734 regiment, which arrived from Dublin last evening, set off this day for Manchester; the remainder not having as yet any or 4rs. This evening a detachment of the til st regiment has arrived from Dublin by steam boat. By the coach from London this evening we learn that five pieces of field artil lery are on the road towards Manchester with post horses, and the artillerymen proceeding in coaches." STATE OF TRADE, COMBINATIONS, 4c. (From the Glasgow eltrolicle of Saturday.] We are sorry to mate that no improvement in trade his yet taken place in this city. The Lanark carriers, who left for that town veil. terday afternoon, had not a fourth part of the webs they were ac customed to carry when trade was brisk. About three fourths of the wearer" in Lanark are idle. The cause of free labour, we rejoice to say, is generally extend ing. Lord Eight, who some time ago turned off every combined @oilier from his pits in Fifeshire, and replaced them by unassociated cid-tiers, hearing through the medium of our paper of the success of Lf r. Dunlop, wrote a letter this week to that public-spirited gentle. nisa;com pit nenting him on the excellent course he had pursued. and requeeino his advieo respecting the introduction of a portion of labourers into his pits. Ills Lot ship has also sent his manager to in select the hest hands that offer ; and they will be 's oared of at least one year's work. Air. Dunlop, we are happy to say, is now completely beyond the teach of the colliers' combination. The energetic measures which he adopted, from the first commencement of the contest, to regain the uncontrolled command of his works, have been attended sotarthe most signal success. This week the new ow lmen hare displayed; in a striking manner. the tacility with which this over- Indted etude may be acquired. In the Glen pit, where are fifty nine new hands, the average out-put ".day has been between 70 and CO carte, and the seams have been wrought iii so perfect a manner, as to astonish the regular colliers who are engaged in teaching the new hands. l'he furnaces can now be fully supplied is i di the requisite supply of fuel, and all the various departments of tire IY. , a-works are carrying on with the greatest regularity and de epen:lr t there are now none of those hatertuptions or disarrange. meats to business which ensued whenever a fresh edict came from the 'grand committee to restrict the out-put of coals. The stock A boa is decreasing. in cinsequente of orders from the English drnarkrt ; and every thing pronitsca a happy change in the circum ma stes of those workmen who have been so fortunate as to change their employment. CamLcirie pit is now working without any gusrd. Yesterday, at ore o'clock. some of the labourers had an 'nand-pat of above a cart of coals each, being the second day they ern handled a pick. There is no guard at the pit, the oversnian tittle/leg he will rely on the courage of his new hands, and the protection of the laws of the country. llama:on-fury pit is duirg teetonely cell with tmassociated colliers; and they have ex. rierced no molestation from the old colliers, since the hanging ewtl.burning of the effigy of the oversman mentioned in our last. 'Jo the meat time the depopulated appearance of the houses in the neightteurhond of Clyde Iron-Mores is giving place to a most sigtee.ible change. Time squares of houses are rapidly filling tolls the families of the industrious and peaceable workmen ; and a remark rble contrast in their habits and demeanour is observable from that of their late occupants. 'f! , e guard have now sr sadirons duty, in escorting, from various quarters, 'tits elms with the furn Pure of the new hands. Vented'', • a aihnber of famlies, with their furniture, arrived from Ai-drie• sin ter a proper escort, to peotect them from molestation. The re. psi ere unesociated colliers have been pouring in this week for work from a great distance; and Air. Dunlop has bad at least two thou ss-d applications from workmen of every description during the last ter dye Now that tire iron-works can be supplied with coal. it is intended to give the public the benefit of the seasonable redue. tion which has been effected in price, by working the sale pits, on on extensive scale, with the new hands- The combination may new be enneidered an fairly broken up. By the loth of *lay, there will not be a pit working on the banks of the Nintikimad Canal but It/ tile reduced price. the collies' having all received warning to thin effect. The funds of the combination, from the heavy drains wine to prevent the iatroduction of free labour Into the works, are now completely exhausted. The condoned col li er. at Clyde Poi-Works WITS fifteen pound* in wear to th combination lies try when they were ordered to strike work; and scarcely a is men of the four hundred unemployed have got wink, litt that they are dependant on the dimity ot their brethren. In d i et.: desperate circumstances, a general roosting ass called this week, when it was resolved still to stand out, and to send delegates imploring assistance from Ayrshire and the Lothians, as they were gOe unable to maintain the combined whom the free labourers were displacing. This application is considered as an expiring efort, and its certain failure will be followed by the final disso lution of this mischievous confederacy, by which the public have suffered mote than from any government tax imposed on them. The roads in the vicinity of Clyde Iron-%i orks continue to be in. tested with parties of idle men, who scrutinize minutely the appear. once of those who pass by them ; but they know too well the con sequences to offer any direct molestation; though the women and children continue to insult every person whom they suspect to be in quest of employment at the pita. Another instance of the foolish spirit which actuates the com. bined colliers was evinced on Thursday. In the afternoon, some of them came to the guard at Clyde Iron Works, and wished the constables to apprehend a man whom they stated to be a deserter. The accused is an unassociatcd collier, and has given mortal of. fence by working at present to Mr. Dunlop. The constables re pited they must have better authority than their mere assertion be fre they acted, and refused to accompany them. In the evening a crowd was collected about the hous , t where the new collier lived, and some of the combined requested a lancer who was passing to come in and seize the pretended &setter. The lancer went into the house, where the collier immediately showed him his regular dis. charge from the army as unfit for service, and the lancer departed satisfied. Still this would-not please his enemies. A party of them came in to a Justice of the Peace in to—n, and imposed so far upon him as to obtain a warrant for a serjeant and twelve men to proceed (rota the barracks to apprehend this said deserter. The soldiers arrived at one o'clock yestenlay morning at Toilette's, when the man showed his discharge, and the soldiers were so dis pleased at the goose-chase, that they took the three informers into custody, and confined them in the barracks. Yesterday they were brought before the Justice who had granted the warrant, who fined the three informers in one pound each, reserving to the injured man' the power of prosecution for damages, and Mr. Dunlop the right of prosecuting criminally this molestation of one of his new work men. Pitiful actions of this kind show how desperate the combined are become, and to what expedients they would resott to remove the free labourers. As a proof that the commercial distress has not as yet arrived at such a pitch as to prevent the union of the sexes, it may be noticed, that la,t Sabbath a great•grandmother, in the village of Condorrat, was proclaimed in the pariah church, as was also her son-in-law. e ate authorised to state, that the hoard of Trade has, for the present, dispensed with the Orders in Council relative to quaran. tote, in so far as they require that vessels from the West Indies and the continent of America, having cotton on board, shall be liable to perform quarantine, unless affidavits by the shippers of the cotton abroad shall be produced that it is not the growth of Africa, Turkey, the Levant, &c. LISMORE DIVORCE BILL. The following are the letters adduced in the Committee on this Bill now before Parliament : The Hon. C. H. B. Clarke examined, and said he received this letter (Lady idurtore's) : The letter was delivered in and read, es follows : " Ulcombe-place, Thursday, Aug. 12. "My dear Charles,—l do indeed feel most grateful to you (as I ought) for your kind letter and offer. lam as well aware as any one can possibly be of the misery and disgrace that will be en. tailed, not only on me, but my poor children, by this dreadful se paration ; and God k nows there is nothing I would not do to avoid it. lam sincerely penitent, and conscious of my many faults, and only desirous to be given an opportunity to atone for them. In deed, could you know the misery I endure, and have endured, this last six weeks in particular, and the dreadful state, not only of bodily but mental weakness, 1 am reduced to, I am sure you would pity me. There is nothing I would not do to be reconciled to Lord Li•more ; and would he but return to me, and restore me to him and my children, I solemnly promise you that there is no mode of life I would not cheerfully lead to please him, nor that no endea. sour should be wanting on my part to atone in his eyes for my past errors, and to contribute to his happiness and comfort. Let him forgive me this once, and if I ever again in any respect forfeit the promise I now make, let him cast me off from him, deprived of all my children, and leave me to the disgrace and contempt I should deserve. My dear Charles, restore me to my husband and my children ; we will pray for you, and bless you the longest day we live. Don't let me and my children be disgraced for ever ; give me but en opportunity of retrieving myself in the eyes of Lord L., and if I fail in any one respect to keep my engagements, I will sub mit to any degtadation that can be devised. Could you know the variety of misery I undergo—my two children here always asking for their papa, wondering he don't return, and wishing to see him t and my two eldest boys ill in London, and I not allowed to go to nurse them ; indeed, I suffer more than I have words to ex press. lily two children here will never be happy away from their papa, particularly my little girl ; and should this dreadful business continue, she will grow up to hate me for separating her from hint. I hope you will pardon me for what I am now going to say, but I entreat you will nut mention that I have written this letter to you, either to Wat or to mama, or any one who would tell them. You know how violent mama is ; we always differed in our opi. nion of Lord L, and not more eleven years ago than we do now. Wat is just gone to London. He is also very desirous for a recon. ciliation, and says he will do all he can to promote it. I did not tell him I had heard from you, because I feared he might be of. fended at my having recourse to the mediation of any one else but himself. Should you (which God in his merry grant !) succeed in your kind and brotherly endeavour, it will be of no consequence whether they know it or not ; but should you unfortunately fail, it would be a sad thing for me to have incurred their displeasure, If Lord L. don't consider the disgrace that this will entail on me. let him think of his poor children, and for their sakes give their unfortunate mother an opportunity of retrieving her. self, and of making atonement for her faults. My dear Charles, I pray unceasingly that this misery may pass away from me. Think what I must suffer. particularly with my boys, whom I have not seen for five months—ill, and I not with them. Perhaps you may well laugh at the incoherency of this letter—but do not ; for could my greatest enemies know the agony of mind that I endure, they would, lam sure, pity me. I shall most anxiously expect the answer to this. 1 repeat that there is nothing that Lord L. wishes I will not cheerfully submit to, to be reconciled to him ; and that, should I forfeit my solemn promise of devoting the re. mainder of my life to the sole study of pleasing him in every respect, attending to my children, and trying to atone for my past faults—l say, should lin any way forfeit this engagement, I will consent to lose all my children, and become an outcast from every. thing I love. Will you, my dear Charles, be my security for my performance of all this, and I promise you that I will not fail in any one respect. My dear Charles, should you succeed in this your kind endeavour, you will have my thanks and prayers the longest day I live, and a blessing will attend you and yours, for restoring an unfortunate wife to her husband, and preserving four children from everlasting disgrace. That you may succeed will be the un ceasing prayer of an unfortunate and affectionate sister, "ELEANOR LISRORE." The following letter was afterwards delivered in, having been proved to be in the hand-writing of Lord Lismore, and was read Itainsgate, June 22, 11119. "My dear Miss Bunting,—l have s ritten to Mr. Moore to thank him fur his kind offer of ceming over to see Lady Lisniore, and therefore I shall say nothing upon that head, except that I value it as I ought; and it gives 137 C pleasure to think that the feelings which dictated such a disinterested and friendly proposal must for ever insure the possessor of them happiness in himself, and from all who are not dead to good feeling, gratitude and esteem. Eleanm's attack has not been a very severe one, though I think if she was stronger, the attack would have been more severe. Doctor Plenderleath, who attends her, is quite aware of the nature of her complaint, and of the extreme delicacy of her constitution, arld has been most lenient in his treatment. Site would have been by this time neatly over the attack, had it not been for a slight cold which she caught. This is • very cold place, open to the sea, without the hest slither, and exposed in particular to the East, from which point, the north-cast, the wind has baeti for some time blowing, consequently the weather is much agailat her; she is better to-day, but her lunge are so irritable that the least cold affects her. I hoptfahe will soon biable to leave this; she mug then go to a mild &mine, which, with God's help, will beget a new habit of constitution, cid in time, in a few years, she may return a stout and healthy woman. .11y two eldest boys are at school, and well. The boy has a bad cold ; and Anne is growing a tall girl. The old lady has been here since Saturday : she is wonder!iolly well. The Doctor has just knocked at the door; he finds Eleanor much better; her pulse down, unl good. The great object tine. is to guard against cold. Believe use, dam Miss Bunting, very truly yours, Lismone.", The following extract of a letter, also proved to be in the hand. writing of Lord Lismore, addressed to Mr. Butler Clarke, was read as follows : " Dublin. Sept. 15, 1819. "I did not decide upon . separating from Eleanoruntill had fully considered, ardi meat maturely weighed, all the circumstances of the vete.

EN-TARTE ORIMSTEAD, IN THE MATTER OF HOWARD AND GIBBS. The Loan Cuaticsx.Loa called the attention of the Bar to a view of this case, which did not appear to hint to have been fully argued in the previous stages of the pleadings. If Orimstead, he observed, could make it appear that he was ignorant of the circum stances when the annuities ceased to be purchased, he might in that case plead an indcbitatus anumpit, and thus become entitled to prove the sum which he claimed. This was undoubtedly one view of the cue; but it would be necessary, before coming to any decision upon it, to go through the whole of the very voluminous affidavits, which his Lordship had brought down with him ; and as he was obliged to leave the Court at an early hour to-day, in order to meet the Judges, and would be obliged to quit still earlier to morrow, it would be necessary either to appoint the farther hearing of the cause for Friday, or to suggest to Counsel the propriety of giving up their holiday on Thursday for this purpose. Mr. HART stated his readiness to accede to such an arrange ment, and Mr. Rose observed, fur his part, that he did not know what a holiday was. The LORD Citaweam.on then said, he should defer the consi deration of that point till to-morrow, when they could arrange on what day it should be finally heard. With regard to the Scotch church, Counsel in that cause might consult their own convenience in bringing it forward. COURT OF KING BENCH, M 2. Siitittgs in Banco. THE VINO V. COOPER. In this case Mr. CURWOOD moved for a writ of Habeas Corpus last week, to bring up the prisoner (who was charged with robbing a Cheltenham coach of a parcel containing 1500/. in notes of the Bridgenorth bank) from Shrewsbury gaol, in order that he might be bailed. The prisoner was brought up this morning, and the depositions on which he had been cemmitted were read. The only circum stances of suspicion attaching to the case were, the prisoner's being apprehended in the act of getting over a hurdle-fence surrounding a hay-rick, under wifch some of the stolen notes were found, and his having given the name of Seymour, instead a his real name, when apprehended. On the other hand, it was positively sworn by four respectable persons that the prisoner was at Dover on the night when the robbery was committed. The Court required the prisoner to enter into his own recogni. zance in the sum of 10001., and four sureties in 6001. each, to up. pear at the next Assizes for the county of Salop, and answer any charge preferred against him. These recognizances having been enured into, he was discharged. DOE EX DEM ISTIRTHWAITE v. VArDEI.X. This was an action of ejectment, to recover very considerable property in Yorkshire. As our readers will recollect, it came be fore the Court this Term, in the form of a special case, and the question was, whether, if a persort went into Scotland and became domiciled there, and had an illemtimate child by a woman whont he afterwards married, that child (under whom the lessor of the Plaintiff claimed), who became legitimate and inheritable to land in Scotland, by the law there, would become legitimate and inhe. ritable to land here 1 Mr. TINDAL concluded his argument to-day in support of the affirmative of this proposition. Mr. Cot; aT r NAY was then heard in part against the proposi tion, and he laid benne the COurt great body of very learned au thorities, and a multitude of ingenious and forcible arguments, in support of the following points :—First, it is offensive and repug nant to the moral, religious, political, and legal notions of Eng. lishmen, to introduce foreign law for the purpose of deciding a title to English freehold !and. Second, the Learned Counsel ar. , gued ab inconvenicati, that, if such a doctrine were admitted, the most monstrous cases might occur, embracing bastardized issue under every form, and even the fruits of incestuous intercourses. Third, in the argument used •• a the other side, conclusions were drawn which were not warranted by the premises; and the Learned Counsel said Mr. Tindal's point might be put in the form of a syl logism, thus--" Legitimate children by the law of En-land, arc in he. citable to lands in England." That is the major. - The minor is, " legitimacy is a personal states, which accompanies a man ever where." The minor then drops one of the two predicates, which ate embraced in the nuijor.; namely, it drops the inheritance, and merely maintains that legitimacy is a personal status. Then Mr. Tindal drew a conclusion which was against all logic and sound reasoning, viz.: " Therefore, my client being legitimate in Scot. land, he is inheritable to land in England." Nothing could be better calculated to expose the fallacy of a false syllogism than a parody; and therefore, however ridiculous it might appear, the Learned Counsel would take the liberty of putting this parody. Suppose the proposition Mr. Tindal had to maintain was, that his client being a Scotcliman, wore breeches when he came to England ; according to his mode of reasoning, his syllogism would stand thus : Men in England have thighs, and wear breeches." There the major raises that which is the personal status, namely, a man having thighs ; but it fallaciously includes that which is not incident, namely, the wearing of breeches. "My client having thighs in Scotland, which is a personal status, has thighs in Eng land ; therefore he has thighs everywhere; and consequently when be comes into England he must necessarily wear breeches." This, though it might be ridiculous, was a true parody on the position taken on the other side, and it plainly proved that in heritance was not necessarily incident to legitimacy. Fourth, The law of England was clearly against the proposition contended for; and the silence of all law-writers as to any contite of nations which would recognize such a proposition, showed that none calmed. Fifth, Upon all principles of feudal law, inheritance is any thing but a personal right; it is only a right sub mods, and the modus is the law of Me place where it is attempted to be intro durtil. The Learned Counsel was proceeding to consider the question as it was borne on by the civil law, when The ?John CHIEF JUSTICE, who was about to leave the Court, requested that the last head of the argument might be post poned until Friday next. t; RIX! I NAT. INFORMATION. The AvennarEw.GEfietutt. moved for n rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against Mr. George William Lenox Conyngham, under the following cir commences :—The affidavit of Mr. .I.:dward Sherar, the prose cutor. stated that he was a clerk in 'the Foreign Office, and that Mr. Conyngham was a clerk in the same department. That on the 21st of February last Mr. Conyngham came into Mr. Sherar's apartment, and triads some observation in an offensive tone, which led to seine conversation, in the course of which Mr. Sherar re minded Mr. Conyngham or his having admitted to him, on some occasion, that he (Mr. Conyngham) had taken steps for the purpose of procuring Mr. Sherar's dismissal from the Foreign Depart ment. Mr. Conyngham said, "If you assert that I told you any thing of the sort, it is a Sh.craisthen said, "Re collect yourself;" and Mr. Conyngham rejoined, In an !angry tone, " I tell you It is an infernal lie;" and then handled his cane in a threatening manner. A seals ensued, In Which, u Mr. Comp. ham was lame, Mr. Shaer took no further advantage of him 4 1.111 MR than taking the cane from him; and haying subdued his antago nist, in derision and comempt he spit over the cane. After this, complaint was made by Mr. Conyngham to the Coder Secretary for Foreign Affairs. and through him the matter was communicated to the head of the department, who most properly had both parties taker. to Bow-street. After an examination they were brought to the nom! Office, where Mr. Sherar was bound over to keep the peace towards all his Majesty's subjects, but more especially . to wards Mr. Conyngham. Within two hours after, however, Mr. Conyngham sent a verbal message to Mr. Sherar, demanding sa tisfaction for the supposed outrage that had been committed on him ; and this being refused, on account of Mr. Sherar's having been bound over to keep the peace, on the three succeeding days three en-cessive messages were sent to Mr. Sherar, demanding satisfaction. and appointing Calais as the place to settle their dit. ferences. This was of course refused, and Mr. Conyngham then addressed Mr. Sherar in a letter, to this effect:—" The evasive manner in which you have met the repeated messages conveyed from me to you, demanding satisfaction for the gross insults you have offered me, obliges me to address you thus. I have already stated to you personally, that I consider you a scoundrel, and a disgrace to your profession. Ism now compelled, in addition, to denounce you as a coward." Mr. Justice BAYLEY —Take a rule to show cause. IN THE MATTER OF ROBERT BELCH, ESQ. Mr. CunwooD renewed his application to have Mr. Bile). who is in custody of the Marshal of the King's Bench Prison. for an assault on the son of Lord Darnley, readmitted to the Rules of that place of confinement. The Court granted a rule, calling upon the Marshal to show cause why Mr. Iwo should not be re-admitted to the Rules, and ordered the rule to be served on Lord Darnlerand on his son. CORONER'S INQUEST. nntsortr. WavrcitEnscss—Yesterday afternoon a Co roner's Inquest was held before THOMAS STIRLING, Esq., at the Three Tuns public house, St. Giles's, on the body of a wan unknown. Upon the Jary being sworn, they proceeded, with the Coroner, to view the body at the Infirmary ; and a more appalling state of wretchedness was never before witnessed. The deceased's apparel was nothiog but rags, whilst the emaciated body was literally moving with vermin. Thomas Kendrick. the beadle, deposed, that on Monday morn ing he received information that a man had died in Ivy•street, where he found the deceased lying in an out-shed, upon boards so covered with filth, as to render it impossible to see them ; the deceased was lying on his coat and waistcoat, there being neither bed nor straw in the place ; having no other covering but a pair of old trowsers on him. He was quite dead, and or. moving him he never beheld such a spectacle in his life; and to give an idea of the quantity of vermin, he was convinced that a hat would not contain them. Up In a further corner of the building he found a female, companion of the deceased, crying, who, in point of wretchedness and filth, was his counterpart. Mr. Tweeddale, surgeon, deposed that be went to the Infirmary to examine the body of deceased, but found it impossible to touch it ; he could form no opinion of the cause of death but that he died by the visitation of God. The deceased seemed between 40 and 50. Harriet Sanderson, the distressed object who was with the de ceased, deposed, that about a month since she went to a shed in Rat's Castle, Ivy-street,where she found the deceased,who stated he had been there four or five nights. His name was George, and he gained his living by begging. He was very much troubled with a cough, whiGlt upon Sunday became much worse, and she sat and cried all tidy, fearing the deceased would die. Between four and five on Monday morning she awoke, when she observed the de ceased was dead. She then informed a girl, who lived next door to the shed, of what had occurred. Previous to her going to Rat's Castle, she slept for 'bout three weeks in the streets, in the vici nity of IVhitechapel. She bad ran away from a manufactory near Birmingham, to which place she had been apprenticed by the parish of St. Martin's-in-the Fields. CottostEn—Why did you not apply to the workhouse when you found the man to be dying 2 —Because I did not know where to go. CORONER—IIad neither of you any sort of bed to lie on, or had you any thing to eat during Sunday ?—We slept on the boards, and hall nothing whatever to eat during Sunday. CORONER—Good God ! Is it possible for so much distress to exist here ? The poor wretch, as she was leaving the room,was called back by the Coroner, who gave her some money to relieve her distresses. Jane Ellison deposed, that on Sunday she gave the deceased and the last witness a jug of cold water, she having nothing else for herself. The Jury-, without any hesitation, returned a verdict that—" the deceased died by the visitation of God." FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE.
