THR CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHE QUER AI W.REXHAM. WREXHAM, WEDNESDAY EVENING. To-day has been made a holiday here in conse quence of the visit of the Chancellor of the Exche quer, who was accompanied by Mrs. Gladstone and most of their family. The occasion of the visit was the cutting the first sod of the Wrexham, Mold, and Connah's Quay Railway,a ceremony which Mrs. Gladstone had gratified the promoters of the un dertaking by promising to perform. The line, which -will open up a very rich and hitherto almost unde veloped district, touching upon the River Dee at Connah's Quay, will be 12 miles in length, and its construction, including stations and other appur tenances, bas been let to Messrs. Sevin and Ward, contractors, for the sum of £150,000. It is expected to be completed for opening within two years. The tradesmen of Wrexham closed their shops at about 11 o'clock in the morning. A public procession formed in the Beast Market, and headed by the militia band, with a troop of the Denbigh shire Yeomanry Cavalry acting as a guard of honour to the carriage containing Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone, and Mr. John Dickenson, mayor of Wrexham, marched to the site of the ceremony, passing under several triumphal arches erected across the roadway. The line will run into the Wrexham station, but the point of Junction with the Shrewsbury and Chester Rail way will be about half a mile nearer Chester, and in a piece of ground adjoining the line called the Gravel Holdfield. The ceremony of cutting the first sod was per formed in the presence of about 2,000 spectators, comprising many influential ladies and gentlemen from the neighbourhood. Amongst those on the platform, besides Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone and family and the mayor and corporation of Wrexham, were —Sir J. Hanmer, M.P. for theFlintshire boroughs, Mr. T. Mainwaring, M.P., Mr. Whalley, M.P., Miss Burdett Coutts, &c. The weather, which had been very boisterous during the early part of the morning, cleared up to wards noon, and during the proceedings the sun shone out with great brilliancy. A conspicuous ob ject of attraction on the platform was a very hand somely designed barrow and spade of polished oak, - with elaborate silver mountings, both of course mi niature proportions. On the barrow were the arms of Mr. Gladstone on a silver shield, and its sides bore medallions engraved " Wrexham, Mold, and Connah's Quay Railway Company, 1862." The blade of the silver shovel bore the following inscrip tion :—" Presented to Mrs. W. E. Gladstone, on the occasion of her cutting the first sod of the Wrexham Mold, and Connah's Quay Railway, October 22, 1862, by Thomas Sevin, contractor." After a suitable prayer by the Rev_ Mr. Davis, of Wrexham, Mrs. Gladstone wheeled the barrow from the platform down a plank to the field, cut a fair sized sod, and wheeled it on to the platform amidst great cheering. The Chancellor of the Exchequer did the same, and the example was followed by Miss Gladstone, and others amidst renewed plaudits. Mr. GLADSTONE, in acknowledging the plaudits of the assembly, said he was not to think that this was an occasion in which personal feelings were in volved, but still he and his family felt very grate ful for the cordial reception which those assembled had been pleased to give them. He must be al lowed to congratulate them upon the auspicious com mencement of this most important enterprise. It - was a work which promised to be of immense pub lic utility, and one which would especially tend to the development of the resources of that part of the country, so blest with great advantages in the great beauty of the surface and mineral wealth below the soil. They had commenced that work in an appro priate and solemn manner, by commending it to the blessing •of God, from whom every good and perfect gift proceeds. The right hon. gentleman congra tulated them upon the augury which had attended the opening of that work, in the change from a miserably wet morning to a brilliant sunshine, and concluded by wishing success and calling for three cheers for the Wrexham, Connah's Quay, and Mold Railway. (Cheers.) Mr. WHALLEY, M.P., begged to congratulate the town of Wrexham upon the presence on such an occasion of so distinguished a visitor as Mr. Glad stone, and though not himself connected with the town, he took the opportunity on behalf of the inhabitants of a large portion of the principality to thank Mr. Gladstone for lending his countenance to so important an undertaking as the railway just commenced. (Cheers.) The Towle CLERK of Wrexham (Mr. James) read an address to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply, observed that he was impressed with a knowledge that the compliments contained in the address as applied to himself were far beyond what the most strong belief in his own deserts could encourage him to claim ; but he had experienced in his own person this fact, that there was a general conviction that those who advised the Crown and those who were concerned with the legis lative business of the nation, although with much weakness and many shortcomings, yet upon the whole had now for a considerable period of years past been labouring, as far as man's energy would permit, to develop the resources of the country. They had been pleased in their address to allude to the changes which had taken place in the com mercial legislation of the country, and to the part which he (Mr. Gladstone) had had in promoting those changes, a small one compared with that which belonged to others. He cla imed credit for nothing more than that he had, ever since his mind was directed to the subject upon assn ming the office of Vice-President of the Board of Trade, now 21 years ago, under the administration of the late Sir R. Peel, steadily laboured in the promotion of a cause of which they had seen broadcast over the land the blessed traits in the improved condition of the people, in the greater energy of our commercial enterprises, in the increased union of all classes among them selves, a more devoted respect for the laws, and in their more enthusiastic attachment to the crown. (Loud cheers.) It was indeed needless, almost idle, to say that it was a real satisfaction, not for himself alone, but for all of them who had in their several spheres been engaged in this work, that it had pleased the Almighty to bless and prosper it, and that this dear old country of ours, though it might present may things that we might all desire to im prove, and though in some parts its population were Badly and cruelly suffering, yet had made real ad vances, the sum of human misery had decreased, and the sum of human happiness had advanced amongst us, and we were going forward on a path , in which the results were likely to be still more extensively accomplished. (Loud cheers.) Three cheers were then given for the Mayor and Town Council, for the contractors, &c., and the crowds dispersed to find their way back to the town of 'Wrexham In the afternoon a dejeuner took place at the Wynnsf e E. Gladstone pre s ided, Wrexham. The Right Hon. W. presided, Mrs. Gladstone being on his left, and the m ayor of Wrexham on his right hand. The company numbered about 200, and was a fashionable one.

(Cheers.) • ' in wich he was The CHAIRMAN, in propos in g the next toast, said thee within the territorial toast did no kneed to be we re all speaking, the subject of the r ecommended to those assembled. T he y orna well aware that the Prince of Wales wa s an ment to the name which he bore, and at this ha pp y _ crisis o f hi s lif e it was f or t una t e th a t he possessed those high qualities which he was known to Pos" Bess, and which would fit him, in due time, and we all hoped it might be a distant time, for the dis- Icharge of those most arduous and responsible duties to which he might hereafter be called. After the other loyal toasts, The CHAIRMAN proposed the toast of the even ing, " The prosperity of the Wrexham, Mold, and Connah's Quay Railway." He dwelt at some length on the question of railway locomotion. This great invention had, he said, done wonderful things for our country, and not only for ours, but through Eng land, for the world. Besides, it was a gratifying recol le cti on to us, although an operation performed in some degree at our own cost, that we had been practically the pioneers of the railway system to the whole of Europe, whence it was finding its way into Asia and to the most remote parts of the world. Mr. Gladstone then alluded to the vast improvement which had taken place in the details of this invention since its first introduction ; going back to the period when the Liverpool and Manchester Railway was opened 32 years ago, he believed he might say with accuracy, that since that time the speed of railway travelling had been doubled, and the cost of railway transit had been halved. (Hear, hear.) And if that were true, it was only saying, in other words, that vast as was the invention given to the world, the railway sys tem had been multiplied fourfoldsince two and thirty years ago it made its first appearance amongst us. It was a most curious and instructive history. No doubt if we had to do the thing over again we might do it better; but it was hardly to be expected that wisdom should spring ready-formed from the mind of the man as the fabled goddess Pallas sprang from the brain of her father. (Hear, hear.) As an illustration of the progress made he might mention one circumstance. When a Board of Trade commission was instituted to inquire into the merits of the various lines projected at that time for the purpose of opening railway communication between England and Scotland, the contest between the pro moters of the several schemes was one of great im portance. There was a general agreement that such a project was necessary, but people were also quite agreed that it was utterly impossible that there could be more than one line constructed. The scheme called the Caledonian line obtained the victory, but utterly impossible seemed the idea of constructing a railway through the wild country between Lancaster and Carlisle. That line would not have been made if some southern com pany, who had an interest in opening the com munication, had not come forward with large sub scriptions towards the cost ; but now instead of one line there were no less than five railways by which any traveller might proceed from England into Scotland, and the Lancashire and Carlisle, con structed under such hopeless circumstances, had proved one of the most profitable railwayinvestments in the kingdom. (Hear, hear.) But while the great districts of the country had been opened up, there remained, perhaps, the most profitable portion of the railway system to be developed—viz., the gra dual development of those minor schemes which were to address themselves especially to meeting the local wants of particular districts. He considered the present scheme one of those most likely to he pro fitable in developing the mineral riches of Den bighshire and Flintahire. He found that of the total annual production of 84 million tons of coal in the United Kingdom, North Wales stood in the return for only one million and a quarter of tons, and he ventercd to prophecy that in ten years time the proportion would be very much larger as proper facilities for traffic were deve loped. (Hear, hear.) Although it was supposed that their coal-beds in North Wales had been nearly worked out, they had found below the main seam . _ a large and most valuable supply of cannel. In deed, the specimens from Lnswood were considered to be the very finest specimens of coal shown in the International Exhibition. (Hear, hear.) This was the ground upon which the railway had to work, and he called upon the company with confidence to drink its suceess. (Hear.) The Mayor of WREXHAM proposed " The Health of the President of the Assembly, the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P." He was sure they ought to feel highly honoured in having so distinguished a gueat. They participated at Wrexham in the admiration with which the whole country had watched his official career as a member of the House of Commons, and approved of those mea sures which had not only tended to forward our own prosperity but also to cement our friendship with other nations. (Loud cheers.) Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply, simply repeated the expression of his gratitude for the reception he had met with. He made no allusion whatever to America or other public topics. " The Health of the County and Borough Mem bers for Denbighshire and Flintshire" was acknow ledged by Mr. T. MAINWARING and Sir J.HANMER, and the latter proposed " Mrs, Gladstone and the Ladies present," which was enthusiastically honoured. The CHAIRMAN, in replying on behalf of Mrs. Gladstone, said that all the natives of Wales were admitted by the whole world to be conspicuous for faithful affection to their country, and he need not say any more of her than that he believed and trusted in that respect she was worthy to be ranked among the natives of the principality. (Cheers.) The remaining toasts were, 'The Railway Directors," " The Visitors, coupling with it the names of the Mayors of Chester and Oswestry," " The Mayor and Corporation," " The Agricultural and Mining Districts," " The Council," " The Solicitors," " The Engineers," " The Contractors to the Company," and " The Press." At the close of the banquet Mr. Gladstone left by train for London. 711 E NAVY. Her Majesty's iron steam troop ship Megmra, I Commander Henderson, at Woolwich Pier, has landed her artillery troops from Quebec, consisting of the sth battery 7th brigade, 130 men of all ranks, in command of Col. Paynter, The Megrera encoun tered the full effects of the gale in the Channel. She lay to during the night with a double anchor down, and arrived at Woolwich with but slight da mage. The troops landed in good health. The most complete arrangements have been car ried out for the launch of the Caledonia at Woolwich which will take place to-morrow at 2 o'clock. The gates are to be open to the public at 1.15. Persons on foot are to be admitted at the main gate. Car riages will enter at the factory gate, but, with the exception of that of the Governor of Greenwich Hospital, will draw up on the western side of the principal offices. About 600 tickets of admission to the platform erected under the head of the vessel have been issued for the accommodation of the offi cers and their friends by Sir F. Nicolson, the Com modore-Superintendent, but as many thousands have been applied for. A limited number has been circulated for the admission of visitors on board the flag-ship Fisgard, and also to be launched on board the new vessel. No women or children will be admitted on board the launch, The ship, as soon as launched, will be hauled round by a couple of steam tugs and will be brought into dock, where she will receive the remainder of her ar mour, six only of her plates having been affixed, viz. three on each side. She will be sent, as soon as completed, to Sheerness, at which dockyard she is to be fitted for sea. The iron masts and bowsprit, which are being manufactured for the Admiralty by a private firm, will be landed at Sheerness Dock yard from the Fox screw store ship. The screw steamer Rosario, 11, Commander Gra ham, lying off the west bank at the entrance to the Medway, was caught by the wind during the late gale and commenced dragging her anchors. Steam Was immediately got up, and the ship put for the Wore without any damage whatever having been done. The screw corvette Racoon, 21, 400-horse power, in the first division of the Chatham steam reserve, will be swun g for the adjustment of her compasses as s° o4 as the weather moderates. It is stated in naval circles that the Racoon is to be commanded by his Serene H ighnes s Pri nce Ernest of L en i ngen, and to take Prince Alfred on a cruise to Australia as soon as his Royal Highness has passed for Lieu tenant. , consisti ng of the Revenge, screw line of battle shi p, Capt.

The Galatea, screw frigate, Capt. R. Maguire, sails from Spithead on Saturday to join Admiral Milne's squadron, taking out the Royal Marine Light infantry to Bermuda. No further experiments by the Ordnance Select Committee being intended with the large Horsfall gun, the paddlewheel steamer Lizard, Lieut.-Com. Spratt, will, in accordance with orders received at Chathaip, convey the necessary gear and appliances from Sheerness dockyard to Shoeburyness, for the purpose of removing the monster gun to Woolwich, whence it will be re-shipped and forwarded to Liverpool. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Arthur A. Smith, to the Hastings ; Lieut. Henry Berkeley, and Lieut. Edward J. Jermain, to the Leopard ; Charles Par kinson, master, to the Dauntless, for the Coastguard ; and S. Lawton, first-class assist.-engineer, to the Indus, for the Swallow. 7.HE ARMY. Owing to the zealous attention and the marked encouragement given by Gen. Sir It. Dacres and other officers of the garrison to the temperance movement in Woolwich, upwards of 500 men have been enrolled and have subscribed to the conditions. To enable the men to have the means of amusement and instruction close to their barrack quarters, read ing rooms have been opened in various parts of the barracks for the gunners and privates of the garri son. The rooms are comfortably furnished and pro vided with numerous daily papers and periodicals, and are largely supported by the soldiers of the garrison. Orders were yesterday received at the head quarters of the Royal Engineers, Chatham, direct ing the detachment selected from the Royal En gineers to be employed in surveying the ground in the neighbourhood of Portsdown-hill, Portsmouth, on which the land defences are to be built, to pro ceed from Brompton barracks this morning. The men who will be employed on this duty have been selected from the survey and topographical schools at the Royal Engineer establishment, and will be employed under the direction of Lieut.-Col. Ross, R.E., who is superintending the erection of the fortifications at Portsmouth. 7HE GALES. LOSS OF THE LIVERPOOL SHIP BENCOOLEN AND 28 LIVES, By the telegrams which came in yesterday from the different outports there seems to have been but little abatement of the severity of the gales, more particularly along the western coast, where, up to yesterday at noon, the wind is described to hav3 blown with the force of a hurricane from the S.W., with a tremendous sea on, and breaking over the shore.. In the course of the forenoon Admiral Fitz roy cammunicated to the several stations round the coast that another storm was probable. The baro meter, which stood at 29.54,was falling last evening. Early yesterday morning Lloyd's agent at Bude, near Bideford, on the North Devon coast, for warded a telegraphic despatch to the City an nouncing the loss of a large ship off that place, and that most of the crew had perished. She proves to be the Bencoolen, 1,500 tons burden, bound to Bombay from Liverpool with a cargo of machinery, railway iron, telegraph wire, and other goods. It appears that she left the Mersey last week, and in making her way out of the Channel encountered the gale, and becoming disabled put back, and in endeavouring to make Buds Haven struck upon the rocks and became a total wreck. Unhappily out of a crew of 27, only five, it is reported, were saved. The Bencoolen was built at St. John's in 1855, and was a first-class ship. During Monday and Tuesday considerable anxiety was felt for the safety of the Clarence steam-ship belonging •to the General Steam Navigation Com pany, which left Hamburg for London on Saturday, and was therefore sometime overdue. Yesterday she arrived in the river, and by her report it would appear that she had a narrow escape of foundering in the North Sea, having lost between 200 and 300 sheep which were stowed on deck, and sustained other damage. On leaving Cuxhaven the weather was fine, but on reaching Terschelling on Sunday afternoon bad weather was encountered, and two steamers, which were supposed to be the Leo and Planet, and were following in the wake of the Clarence, were lost sight of, and it is thought they were lost. The gale gradually increased, and at times with thunder and lightning, the sea running mountains high. About 11 o'clock at night a fear ful sea struck the ship, sweeping the deck and car rying overboard 250 sheep, breaking away the paddle-boxes, bulwarks, galley, and other things on deck„and flooding the fore-cabin and fore part of the vessel. For a time it was feared that the steamer could not outlive the storm in her then con dition, and that she would founder. The chief offi cer, Mr. Marshall, who was at the wheel, had his thigh broken. The crew took heart and worked courageously for the preservation of the ship, and by active pumping cleared the vessel of a large portion of water which she had made. Owing to the time, however, the ship had been kept buffeting about the fuel got short. The ship's spars, &c.' were made available for keeping up the fires, and at length, after much trouble and anxiety, the English land near Lowestoft was made, to the joy of all on board. The crew and passengers were much exhausted, some of the former having been on their legs more than 90 hours. Another steamer which has arrived in the river reports hav ing lost 75 cattle of 90 which she had on board. A sad list of casualties continues to be received from the north-east coast. The brig Robert and Margaret, belonging to the Tyne, could not weather the storm, and foundered a few miles from the mouth of the Humber. The captain, mate, and car penter were rescued by the smack Tartar, but the remainder of the unhappy crew (six or seven in number) were drowned. Another collier brig, celled the Amity, from the Tyne for Rochester, went down off the same line of coast,but the crew were happily preserved. The crew of the schooner Thrifty, of Goole, for Rouen, which struck on the Long Sand on Sunday night, were not taken out of the rigging wrecks until 8 o'clo c k on t h e f ol l ow i ng morn i ng. Th e poor fellows suffered much by the sea breaking over them. The captain's wife wife, who wa s l as h ed to the rigging, died from the severity of the aet hwaersa: Many drowned apparently , a a n n d Austrian, u t s h t e r i mate's an, of from the different e o The Transit, steamer, g from rormdH stations.ui l, speaks are reported o f hav ing seen a large ship, 1,000 tons, with signals of distress flying. No per son was seen on board, and it was thought that a pilot beat which was near would succeed in getting the ship into Flushing. P, called th e C u b a , The French coast a ppears to h ave had its share of disasters. A large Dutch shi from Surinam to Amsterdam, laden with a valu a bl e cargo of East India produce, was stranded at Cape Grinez, near Boulogne, and is considered a total 'oss. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY. Much pain was felt here to-day in conseq uenc ; of a despatch which was received from Bute's Bay, Cornwall, announcing the total loss of the large East Indiaman Bencoolen. This vessel left Liver pool on the 13th inst., bound for Bombay, with a large and valuable general cargo. She must have met with the fearful weather which has prevailed in the Channel and round the English and Irish coast for the last week or so, and been driven on to the Cornwall coast. The Bencoolen when she left Liver pool had a crew of 33 men on board all told, and we regret to say that out of this number only five have been saved. The telegram is brief, and does not state whether the master or officers are among the saved. The ill-fated ship belonged to Messrs. E. Bates and Co., of Liverpool. The foreign brig Meika, Capt. Hazeywinkle, bound from Leghorn to Liverpool, went ashore to day off Waterloo, and at the time of the despatch of our parcel two steam tugs were endeavouring to pull her off. _ _ Two flats—one salt laden—sank in the river to day, but fortunately no person was lost. As showing the strength of the gale from the west, we may state the tide rose up wards of two feet aboNe the height indicated by the tide tables. Ad miral Fitzroy telegraphs to say that another fearful gale from the south may be hourly expected. PLYMOUTH, WEDNESDAY. The prevailing gales have continued here up to this morning ; but the boisterous state of the wea ther has since somewhat abated. A large number of vessels have taken shelter in the Sound, but the following are the only accidents that have taken place amongst them :—The barque Moultan, from Bahia for this port, with a cargo of sugar, last from Queenstown, lost her jibboom. The Place, a small ketch belonging to Teignmouth, laden with blue lias, from Lyme Regis, went ashore in Cutwater for want of a second anchor; she was got off to-day, with some holes in her bottom, after throwing over part of her cargo. The Fitzroy weather signal at present stands here at " Dangerous winds from the southward expected." SOUTHPORT, TUESDAY. The dreadful gale continued throughout the whole of Monday night, and was still to-day very furious. About 6 a.m. a large vessel was seen to drift on a sand bank between Formby Madwharf and the Boghole, and immediately rolled on her side. She remained in sight in that position but a short time, and then became completely swamped. The Jessie Knowles lifeboat and her daring crew, with Captain Rocliffe, were soon afloat, but the ill-fated vessel was soon lost to view, and, con sequently, the boat returned, but renewed her vigorous efforts to find the wreck when it could again be seen from the shore, She was absent about four hours, and brought with her the intelligence that they had approached so near as to perceive i that the ship was in four pieces, leaving not the slightest doubt that all hands were lost. As the tide went back it left a square box, as it from the wreck, containing Spanish or other foreign letters; also a board, with the following words inscribed on it, " Quisa Rosa." It is conjectured that the unfor tunate vessel was a Spanish trader bound for Liver pool. Other ships have been seen in the distance with a mast or two missing. The bodies of the Iwreck of the Ann E. Hooper have not yet been washed up. 7HE LATE _RIOTS AT BIRKENHEAD, CHESTER CASTLE, WEDNESDAY. This forenoon the 12 prisoners charged with being concerned in the late riots last we€ k at Birkenhead, who were ordered to be sent to Chester Castle by the magistrates at the former hearing on Thursday last, were again brought for farther examination. Mr. Pemberton, solicitor, of Liverpool, instructed by Captain Smith, Superintendent of the Cheshire County Constabulary, again appeared on behalf of the prosecution ; and Mr. Moore, solicitor, of Bir kenhead, conducted the defence. The names of the prisoners are respectively Patrick Fahay, sen., Patrick Fahay, jun., Michael Fahay, Thomas Larkin, Catharine Larkin, Thomas Buckley, John Gorman, James Tracy, Thomas Shevelin, Elizabeth Curtis, Michael Martin, and Michael Hogan. Mr. Conway, barrister, stated that he appeared on behalf of the Commissioners of Birkenhead to prosecute the rioters generally. The magistrates on the bench were Maj.-General Sir Edward Cust, chairman of the Birkenhead Bench, Messrs. Barton, J. B. Case, P. Ewart, Gra ham, and Ledward. After some conversation between the Bench and the professional gentlemen engaged,' it was agreed to commence the inquiry de novo, in consequence of Mr. Conway, barrister, being now engaged by the local authorities at Birkenhead. Mr. Conway then said he appeared on behalf of the Commissioners of Birkenhead for the purpose of preferring a charge against all the prisoners for a riot. With regard to some of them he should leave it to Mr. Pemberton, who appeared on behalf of the county police, to point more dis tinctly to the charge, so far as it might affect them. He would not detain them by opening this de plorable case at any length, because he felt that the Bench were as cognizant of the facts as he was himself. It was enough for him to say that the charge against the prisoners was for riotous assem bling, and for committing a number of assaults upon the police; and, although the cases as against some of the prisoners might differ in strength, still if he succeeded in showing that every one of those whom he now charged formed part of that riotous mob, and that each of them made a distinct assault on the police, he should have performed his duty and justified the Bench in committing the prisoners for trial on the charge he now preferred. The learned counsel said that his charge was more par ticularly made against the prisoners Martin, Tracy, Thomas Larkin, Shevelin, and Hors, all of whom he should prove savagely attacked the police. Mr. Pemberton said he appeared, on behalf of the county constabulary, to prosecute the prisoners Thomas Larkin, Catherine Larkin, Hogan, Buck ley, Patrick Fahay, sen., Patrick Fahay, jun., Michael Fahay, John Gorman, and Elizabeth Curtis. He only considered it necessary to say, on behalf of the county constabulary, that he should carry the case much further than Mr. Conway had done, for he should show the Bench that the pri soners had been found with shot, gunpowder, and firearms in their possession, as well as other deadly weapons, thus proving beyond all doubt their mur derous intention. The first witness called was Inspector Keenan, of the Birkenhead force, who was examined by Mr. Conway, and stated that on the evening of the 15th of October, about seven o'clock, he was on duty in Price-street, in the neighbourhood of Trinity Church, with eight men under his command. A large crowd was collecting about the church, and he gave orders to his men to keep them moving on. At this time there was great cheering in Watson street, and he went to Inspector Gunning to obtain further assistance. On returning to Price-street he saw a crowd of people coming down Price street towards the church. They were armed with sticks and poles, some of the weapons being seven and eight feet long. When the mob reached the church witness remonstrated with a rev. gentleman who was with them ; some of the mob then called out, " Now, go on for the glazed cap." A rein forcement of police reached the church, and an order was given to charge the rioters, who were in a field opposite the church, and who were throwing a de structive volley of stones at the police. A rein forcement came, and witness had then 41 officers. On charging the mob several of the officers were struck with stones, and five of them had to retire. The mob were then driven down Price-street by six of the mounted police, who came up. The mob went in the direction of Brook-street, where they broke up into detached bodies, and did . not again rally. After the police took up their position a second time, the mob from their hiding places showered volleys of stones at them, and rendered their position very dangerous. At this time the strength of the police was reduced by seven or eight men, who were very much disabled. Twelve file of police attacked the mob, and four five of them were very much hurt, including Sergeant West, who was dangerously wounded. Witness and his men were completely routed in Watson-street, and the mob set up a loud yell as of triumph. A fur ther reinforcement of officers was procured, and another charge was made upon the mob, and when opposite the Prince Albert Hotel one of the officers Was knocked down, and they thought he was dead. Witness rece i ved several b lows on his temple and on sever a l parts of his .body. The mob was after wards in Watson -street, which was in an excited state, and the officers heard smashing of glass and knocking in of doors and shutters, and for three , quarters of an hour Watson-street was in posses- sion of the mob. At a quarter-past 9 another attack was made upon the mob by Inspector Gregory and the mounted police, but the officers were again com- pletely repulsed, and several of them were injured. About a quarter to ten o'clock Inspector Gun ning came to their assistance, and another charge was made on the mob. One man was taken into custody, and in a few minutes afterwards a number of the county police came up, when a deadly volley of stones were thrown at the county police from the houses in Oak-street by the mob. The police identified the prisoners Martin, Tracy, Larkin, and Shevelin as taking part in the riot. Inspector Gregory and Police-constable James Deakin, of the mounted police, corroborated the last witness, and identified the prisoner Hore as having struck at Inspector Gregory with a long staff. Police-constable George Lewis identified the pri soner Martin as one of the men who were throwing stones among the mob. Several other officers having given similar evi dence, swearing distinctly to all the prisoners being among the mob, Mr. Conway said that closed his case. Mr. Pemberton next examined Capt. Smith, the head constable of the county constabulary. The witness said that on the night of the lbth inst. he was in command of 40 police officers specially called down to Birkenhead to preserve the peace near Holy Trinity Church, Birkenhead. Witness kept his men there from half-past 9 o'clock until the meeting of the Debating Society broke up. Every one appeared to leave the meeting peaceably. Shortly before 11 o'clock, from information he received, he proceeded with his officers down Park-street into Price -street, and along Eldon-place,where he halted his men. From Eldon-place he saw numbers of men running from Watson-street into Oak-street. The doors were being barred after the rioters, and there seemed to be a regular barricade going on. Before reaching Eldon-place witness and his men had large quantities of stones thrown at them. The object of the rioters seemed to be to get into their houses and assail the police from the windows. Witness seh - Inspector Burgess and a superintendent down Oak street, and told them that if assistance was required they were to send for it immediately. Directly af- terw ards he heard a call for assistance, and he a' once led his men down Eldon-place into Oak•street Instantly stones commenced to fly from parties in the windows, and from others opening the doors and then slamming them to again. Witness then saw the doors barricaded by parties inside the houses. He shouted down the street as well as he could for the houses from which the stones were thrown t 3 be entered and the inmates to be made prisoners. Witness saw a number of his men rush into No. 6, one of the houses from which the stones were being thrown. He was assaulted with a stone which came from house No. 10. He rushed at the door of the house from which the stone came, but some men who were standing at the door, slammed it to and fastened it. He then rushed against the door with his shoulder and broke it in, and several of his men and one of the Birkenhead force entered the house after great resistance had been offered by the in mates. After effecting an entrance, they found three of the prisoners, and also the prisoner Catha rine Larkin, in an apartment in the house. The pri soner Catharine Larkin had an axe in her hand, and her husband, who was close behind her, had in his hand a bar of iron two inches long. The prisoner Hogan had a poker in his hand. The woman at tempted to strike officer Maddocks with an axe. She made a second blow at him with the axe, but it missed the officer, and he seized it. At this time there was a riot in almost every house. Several of the prisoners were captured in house No. 6, and after the capture the witness and his men were again assaulted near Trinity Church. Hearing that some of his men had been dangerously wounded, he went with 25 men to Watson-street, where he saw Inspector Burgess and officer Morris, injured and looking like dead men. In cross-examination by Mr. Moore, Capt. Smith said the Birkenhead polin force was not under his command. He wished they had been. Superintendent Charles Laxton, of the Whit church division of the county force, and who ac companied Capt. Smith, corroborated his evidence. Inspector Rowbottom, of the county constabu lary, stationed at Wallasey, deposed to being on duty on the night of the riot, along with other offi cers, acting under Captain Smith, and to being assaulted with stones from the house of No. 6, in Oak-street. Being refused admission, he broke the window and wen t through, followed by other officers. On getting in he heard parties rushing to the back of the house. He followed them into the kitchen, and gave directions to his men to go into the yard. They immediately returned with the prisoner John Gorman. Witness then proceeded upstairs, fol lowed by officer Oldham, and went into the room from which the stones had been thrown. There was a rush under one of the beds. A light was procured, and, on looking under the bed he found two men, Patrick Fahay, jun., and Michael Fahay. Witness also found under the- bed a gun. (Gun produced.) Just before entering the house he heard the report of firearms several times. He examined the gun, which was in a dirty state, and appeared to have been recently used. He handed the prisoner into the custody of the other officers. In the room there were bricks and stones in abundance. There were also missiles in a back room in the same house from which a number of men rushed out by the windows. At Bridewell, a powder flask containing powder, and a woman's pocket, containing a quan tity of large and small shot, fell from one of the prisoners. Several other officers were called, who corrobo rated the evidence of last witness, and deposed to the other prisoners taking part in the riot, and the inquiry was proceeding when our report left. The greatest excitement prevails, and during the whole day the court has been densely crowded. At noon to-day, a large body of county police was despatched to Birkenhead, another disturbance being feared there to-night. The persons whose property was damaged during the recent Popish riots have sent in their claims for compensation to the local justices ; but these have not yet, of course, been decided upon. It is stated that the damage occasioned by the rioters amounts in the aggregate to between 1500 and 1600,which will have to be made good by the inhabitants of the hundred of Wirral. It is reported that a communication has been received from the Home Secretary, Sir George Grey, expressing an opinion in favour of the conduct of the Birkenhead magistrates ; but neither the letter sent by one of the justices to the Home-office nor the reply of Sir G. Grey has been published. A lecture, announced to be delivered before the recent disturbances, will be given in the schoolroom of Christ Church, Claughton, Birkenhead, on the subject of " Rome and Italy." The Rev. Dr. Bla keney, of Christ Church, has intimated his resolu tion of persisting in the holding of the lecture, and an earnest hope is expressed that no attempt will be made to disturb the proceedings. Sir George Grey, in a letter to the bench, has in formed them that orders have been forwarded to the general commanding the district to send two or three companies of soldiers to Chester, where there is barrack accommodation, to be in readiness if their services are required at Birkenhead. Some correspondence has arisen between the War-office authorities and the local volunteers as to the employment of the latter during the recent riots; but it is right to state that the volunteers were not employed as volunteers, but many members of that force, in their individual capacity, were sworn in and acted as special constables. All the prisoners have been committed for trial, at the next Chester assizes. Bail refused.

ALARMING ACCIDENT_7 0 AN EXPRESS TRAIN. EVESHAM, WEDNESDAY. A most alarming collision, most providentially unattended with fatal consequences, occurred on the West Midland Railway near this town last night, under the following circumstances. The down ex press train from London, which leaves Paddington at 6.30 p.m., does not stop at Evesham, but passes this station at the usual express speed, and is due here at about 9.5 p.m. The train was a few minutes behind time, but was proceeding at the usual rate, and had passed Evesham station by about 200 yards, when the passengers were suddenly thrown together in confusion, some receiving bloody noses and others being badly bruised. Fortunately, however, no further damage was sustained by them, and on hur riedly leaving the train they found they had run into some trucks which by some unaccountable ne gligence had been left on the line without danger signals to guard them, while it was known that the express train was due on the same line of rails. The effect of the collision was to dash the trucks (three in number) into splinters, scattering the debris over the line and breaking down the tele graph wires. Two of the wheels of one of the trucks had in an extraordinary manner got under the fore wheels of the engine and become firmly fixed in it, and it was thought the engine would have left the rails and run off down an embankment but for these wheels holding it upon the line. At the place where the collision occurred there is an em bankment leading over some low lands adjoining the river Avon ; and had the train gone a little fur ther and run off the rails, it must have fallen bodily into the river, which was much swollen by the late rains and is always deep at this place. The escape of the passengers was indeed miraculous. The party most injured was the engine driver, who received a severe blow on the chest. He was conveyed to Worcester in the course of the night, and attended by Mr. Everett, surgeon, who pronounced the injury as not serious. The damage to the company is con siderable, the three trucks being completely de stroyed, and one of them loaded with scrap iron. The extent of the mischief being ascertained, assis tance was obtained from Evesham, and in about an hour the disabled train was dragged back to Eves ham, and a fresh engine being supplied, the pas sengers were sent on their journey. The line was cleared in about an hour. How the trucks got on the line of course the authorities cannot yet say, but the foreman porter at Evesham, who has the ma nagement of the shunting of trains, has been taken into custody, and will be examined before the ma gistrates. It is due to the public that the most searchin g investigation should take place, and the true culprit be punished. THE COLLISION ON 7HE EDINBURGH AND GLASOOW RAILWAY. We are glad to be able to state that all the patients at Linlithgow, under the conjoint cire of Drs. Spence and Baird, are progressing as favourably as can be hoped for, taking into consideration the na ture of the injuries of some of them. Mr. Shaw, writer, Falkirk, is now the worst, and although there was on Tuesday a considerable degree of irri- tative fever remaining, he passed. a good night, and was rather better than he had been since the acci dent. Although he is still in a dangerous state,hopes are cherished of an ultimate recovery ; but still it will take at least two months before the scalds are healed and he can be removed. Mr. Brown, East Lothian, who received extensive cuts and bruises all over the body, and whose arm was scalded and three ribs fractured, is going on uncommonly well. The inflammatory symptoms that set in, end which caused at first some alarm, are now happily subdued, and although there still remains a very great de gree of weakness and depression, there is no fear but that he will recover. Miss Isabella Wood, from Leith, who received the contusion on the lumbar vertebra, causing temporary paralysis, was yester day very much better. For the last day or two she suffered a very great deal from nervous excite ment and horrible dreams when falling asleep, from which she awoke talking a little incoherently about the accident, fancying she was in the train ; but she is now quite out of danger. Mrs. M'Farlane is improving rapidly, and, we understand, she is now able to sit up in bed and amuse herself with reading; and Mrs. Burnett is also doing well. The girl, Mary Ann Dempster, who is in the house of Mr. Dow, station-master, and whose legs were fractured, is doing well and in excellent spirits. She is highly ;delighted with her present abode, and says that the people there are very kind to her. The soldier, under the care of Dr. Gilmour, is also doing well. There are two persons who rendered great service on the night of the acci dent, and whom we had previously omitted to notice—Mr. Peter Dow, station-master, and his wife. Mr. Dow, as soon as the accident was known, hastened to the spot with the labourers who had just arrived from their day's work on the rail way by a train, and set them at once to work. He accompanied the wounded to Linlithgow, and was most unceasing in his efforts to render the sufferers comfortable, and has ever since proved himself a sympathising friend to them all. Mrs. Dow, under whose care the little girl Dempster still remains, cannot be too highly praised for the kindly manner in which she attends to all the sufferers. In the Edinburgh Infirmary all the patients have improved with the exception of Harvey, of the Scots Greys, who still continues in a state of insensibility. „in deed, the doctor fears concussion of the brain. Mr. M'Nab of Cupar was very much depressed, in con sequence of the death of Mr. Marr, whose injuries were similar to his own, but on Tuesday morning his spirits recovered their tone, and he is now a good deal better.—North British Marl. DEATH FROM THE ADMINISTRATION OF LAUDANUM. UNQUALIFIED PRACTITIONERS. Yesterday afternoon the coroner for Middlesex held an inquest at the Red Cow Tavern, Mile-end road, Stepney, respecting the death of James Woodley, aged 16 months, whose parents reside at 6, Cleveland-street, who it was alleged died from narcotic poison. _ _ _ It appeared from the evidence that the deceased had been suffering from a cough, and the mother went to a chemist named Stimpson, of The Dog row-Mile-end-gate, who prescribed a mixture called " Paregoric tincture," which was labelled with in structions to give the child a teaspoonful when the cough was troublesome. The deceased became un conscious, and when a medical gentleman was called he pronounced deceased suffering from a narcotic. She only paid a penny for the mixture and the phial was half filled. The mother said, in answer to the coroner, that, as Mr. Stimpson had surgeon and accoucheur over the door, she thought that he was a qualified medical man. Mr. Irwin, surgeon, of Mile-end-road, stated that he found the child dying, apparently from the ad- I ministration of poison. He saw a phial on the r table, and from questions put to the mother he was of opinion that the child had died from the effects of a narcotic poison. He had examined a portion of the drug in the phial, and had found that it con tained two poisonous drugs—viz., benzone and opium, which were very dangerous to administer to children of such a tender age. A vast number of in fants were destroyed annually by the reckless sale of poisonous drugs. The Coroner said the case was a very serious one, deceased aeted and he had had occas i o n more than once to cauti on Mr. Stimps on f or ac ting in such a ca p acit y with out being qualified. The mother stated that eli M e r t e . d her o S t impsonfth thea as a surgeon, and had delivered child at her confinement. The Coroner gave instructions to Mr. Stevens, the summoning officer, to send for Mr. Stimpson, the chemist ; but w h en the messenger returned that gentleman was found to be absent from home. A Juror said that Mr. Stimpson ought to be pro secuted by the Apothecaries' Company for such illegal practices. The Coroner sealed up the phial, and adjourned the inquiry for a post mortem examination of the body, at the same time requesting Mr. Stevens to summon Mr. Stimpson, the chemist. Adjourned to Friday afternoon, at two o'clock. THEMURDER AT ULLIN GSWICK. HEREFORD, W EDNESDAY. George Hope, the returned con vict, now in custody on the charge of having abus ed and mur dered the girl, Mary Corbett, was convicted at Hereford, in December, 1850, of stealirt g fowls, the property of Mr. Skerrett, at Ullings' vick, and of housebreaking and robbery at the sat ne place, for which he was sentenced to seven years ' transporta tion. He has since been twice coilviel :ed of misde meanor, and of using threatening language, for which he has suffered terms of imprist. nament. It now appears that Mrs. Skerrett, a respectable farmer's wife, living in the ne.ighbourh‘ood, finding some of the necessaries of housegee ping getting rather low, and would not, in a ll proinability, last until she visited Hereford market on Wednesday, sent the deceased to the Draiuer's Arm's public house, to which a shop for the sale of grOceries is attached. The girl Mary Corbett was a remarkable speci men of the ruddy-complexioned damsels of Here fordshire, and was an exceedingly fine and powerful girl for her age. When ,she entered the Drainer's Arms the first time, about 8 or 9 o'clock on Monday night, the prisoner was drinking with others in the kitchen. The prisoner asked her to drink with him, which she prudently declined to do. This circum stance had, perhaps, something to do with her re turn to the house a second time, she h aving forgot ten some candles she had been instructed to bring with her. On her second appearance the prisoner repeated his importunities, and went so as to order a glass of beer for her, which she ha 'd also the prudence to leave behind her. However, ionic diately on the girl leaving the house he was observed. to get from his seat and follow her, leaving behind him some beer, which he did not re; urn to drink. Nothing further transpired to indicate the nature of the offence that had been committed until Mrs. Skerrett, in her state of uneasiness at the absence of the girl, gave information to her husband's work men, by whom it was immediately spread, and the facts that had transpired at the Drainer's Arms be came a matter of common conversation. This at once threw suspicion upon Hope, and it was at first thought that the man named Wm. Weaver had par ticipated in the crime. This happily turns out to , be unfounded,and the evidence which will to-morrow be given tends to fix the offince absolutely upon the prisoner Hope, who is a desperate character, as will hereafter appear. Inquiries having been set on foot, it was observed that at a certain point in the road a struggle had taken place, which had been followed up to a bank by the wayside. It was here observed that the knees of a man, having a peculiar kind of stuff in his trousers, had made indentations in the turf and mould. Here, too, was found by the prisoner's own brother who had joined in the search, a frail which the prisoner had with him at the Drainer's Arms on Monday night. Also, the net which had been torn off the head of the poor girl. The prisoner did not return to his lodgings that night, nor does it appear that he slept in any house. His own statement is to the effect that he slept in a. barn, which upon examination does not show any trace of his having been there, It was also ob served that, on Tuesday morning prisoner washed a portion of his clothes and had blood upon his fore head, which it is probable resulted from his struggle with the girl against the bank by the wayside. From this point steps were traced to an orchard some few hundred yards distant, where the corpse of the poor girl was found placed up in a sitting posture against an apple-tree, after the first offence had been committed. N. Lanwarne, Esq., the coroner, will hold the in quest to-day. 314 RAJ-11)S. COUN2RI 4 .. NEWARK-WEDNESDAY.
