(THIS DAY., The meeting of the delegates frou various parts of the country took place at the Whittingbn Club, for the pur• pose of considering the basis of a nev measure of reform. Among those present were M. Bazley, M.P., Mr. Baines, M.P., Mr. Kershaw, M.P, Mr. R. Mills, M.P., Mr. P. Lawson, M.P., Mr. Crossley, M.P., Mr. Taylor, M.P., Mr, Stansfeld, M.P., Mr. W. E. Foster, M.P , Mr. Padmore, M.P., Mr. H. Pease, M.?., Mr. Cox, M.P., and about 100 delegates. Letters of apology, some of then containing subscrip • tions, were received from Lord Lrndesborough, Mr. R. Cobden, M.P., Sir C. Douglas, Robertson Glad stone, Esq., Mr. Thos. Baines, M.?., Mr. John M'Adam, of Glasgow, Mr. A. Coosham, Mr. E. Miall, Mr. Potter, My., and Mr. P. Ryland. Mr. GEORGE WILSON, of Manetester, was called to the chair. In opening the proceedings he commented at some length upon the various measures of reform that had been introduced into Parliament by tie various Governments during the last few years, and contmded that her MAjest3 having expressed a wish that a measure of reform should be introduced, it was the duty of the House of Commons to negotiate a measure which should meet with the just expeo • tations of the people. Mr. COOPER followed the chairman. He spoke of the . . insincerity of the present Parliament. He thought there was not a delegate present but would agree with him that the present administration was composed of overt Tories, stagnant Whigs, and torpid Liberals, headed by a leader who did the work of the Opposition. He thought the delegates ought to adopt, as the basis for a new Reform Bill, an extension of the suffrage to all males in boroughs, rated or liable to be rated for the relief of the poor, to all males in counties who occupied land to the extent of £lO a-year, a redistribution of seats, the ballot—(hear, hear) — and shorter Parliaments. (Hear, hear.) Mr. JEFFERY, of Liverpool, said he was of opinion that the members of the present House of Commons were not honest in their endeavours to remedy and improve the syq ten as it existed at present, because the possession of a seat in the house, under present circumstances, was not a ques tion of talent or honesty on the part of the candidate who sought for the honour, but entirely and simply one of the breeches pocket. He thought that a reduction of the pub- lie expenditure was imperatively necessary, and that tho present time was most opportune for an agitation for such a question ; that a wise and comprehensive measure was exercised the franchise was only about lin 7. He objected to so small a number exercising so important a privilege to the exclusion and prejudice of the unrepresented. (Hear, hear.) _ _ SARELL, of the London Political Union, objected altogether to a property qualification for tho counties, which had been suggested. He was of opinion that registered manhood suffrage was what was urgently required to place the working man in his proper po,ition ; and as to the bal lot, he thought it was of no use at all to the poor man. The CHAIRMAN said there was at present no arranged plan for their proceedings. He therefore called upon all the delegates present to come forward and give expression to their opinions in the most unreserved manner, in order that the greatest amount of information on the subject which they had met to consider might be elicited. Mr, FRASER, of Edinburgh, said what he thought was required was a huge and comprehensive plan of reform, which should be acceptable to the working man and worthy of the support of the middle class. He was in favour of the basis that had been thrown out by Mr. Cooper, although he was prepared to go a step further. Mr. BAINES, M.P., said the object of the conference had his earnest sympathy. That object was to obtain such a large extension of the suffrage as would give the working class the privilege of giving a vote for those who made their laws. He thought that if they were to attempt to define any particular measure, they could not remain a united body. He thought the wisest course for them to adopt was to leave every portion of the country to petition for that plan of reform which they approved, and he would there fore advise those present to seek for organised action be tween the middle and the working classes, so that they might be in a position, at the commencement of the next session, to submit a more condensed and comprehensive reform bill to Parliament. Mr. WAsaINGTON WILES thought that if the present vote for every man ; and t amsatnohroeosud su e_ ltin ffr a ag succ a ess,hey must inscribe on movementt hei r banner every man who had not a vote would re-echo the cry, and resistance to such a demand would be futile and useless. Mr. TAYLOR, M. P., said he was an advocate for univer sal suffrage; but he thought that at present they ought to be content with as much as they could get. What was wanted in the first instance was to get the thin end of the wedge in the House of Commons, and if they could get 30 or 40 more sincere advccates in the House of Commons there would be some chance of success. Out of doors he counselled them to raise the standard of absolute right and universal suffrage, and then leave to others to say how much of the demand they would concede. Mr. LUCRAFT was in favour of manhood suffrage, being the rallying cry for a new Reform Bill. _ _ Mr. il‘fEE,of Liverpool, thought they ought to enlarge even manhood suffrage. In addition to that vote, he con sidered that a second vote ought to be given for proper* situate within the borough or county in which it is situate, and a third vote he thought ought to be conferred for con tributions to the State in shape of taxes. After a few words from . Mr. WHITHURST, of the Ballot Society. A discussion took place upon the appointment of a busi ness committee, to draw up resolutions for the acceptance of the delegates, but before the proposition was disposed of the mid-day adjournment took place. IS NOT A GENERAL DISARMAMENT COXING INTO VIEW. (From the Money _Market Review.) Coming events are said to cast their shadows be fore them. Are we mistaken, then,when we imagine we discern a shadow of repentance coming over Europe at its enormous expenditure for the last ten years, or has the truth dawned at length on nations (those of Europe, at least) that the days of borrow ing for the support of unproductive labour are draw ing to a close ? . It is said that Napoleon 111. is at length con vinced that he has stretched the financial tether so very nearly to its utmost tension, that a very little more might snap it, to the great peril of his grand I , desire, the establishment of a dynasty. No nation can long support such an expenditure as that now endured by France, which is at this moment spend ing upwards of £85,000,000 sterling per annum. Her sagacious ruler knows this cannot go on, and this is, probably one reason why he is determined to put an end to the occupation of Rome, and to re call an army which presses on the finances of France, and whose presence in Rome is a source of dis quietude to Europe. It is affirmed that an alliance, offensive and defensive, will take place between France and Italy, and that Rome will be occupied by the troops of the King of Italy. It may be said, may not this arrangement conduce to an attacic on the part of the Italians on Venice ? It is said, on the contrary, that the Government of Italy has pledged itself not to assume the offensive, and that Austria has also intimated to the Governments of Europe that she will remain on the defensive, and almost possession as of important R om e a tos is a that she has no intention o f a ttacking Italy. The King possession of pa ftaly is rs reallytoi the a King of France, but the possession of Venice would be hardly more important to Italy than is that of Nice and Savoy to France. To hold Rome is a political necessity ; to hold Venice is not. Doubtless in the course of time Austria may be in duced to give up Venice, for it costs her more than it is worth ; but at present Germany thinks its pos session by Austria neees'p,ary for her defence. These points being disposed of, the next move ment in Europe ought to be a general disarmament. It is becoming scarcely a matter of choice, but ra ther one of necessity. Neither nations nor indivi duals can go on for ever under constantly accruing deficits and loans. There is scarcely a nation in Europe whose e xpenditure does not greatly exceed it s income, and the cause is notoriously excessive armaments, caused mainly by France. Let France really disarm, and all Europe—England included — will follow her example. No one knows this better than the Emperor Napoleon, mid happily for the object in view, there . are few nations in Europe whose financial position becomi ng worse than that of France. A little while, and not hi ng b u t a re duction of expenditure will save her from a finan cial convulsion. An annual deficit of £15,000,000 cannot possibly be a permanent arrangement, and this has been the average annual deficit of France for the last ten years . The evil cannot b e me t by increased taxation. No French Government, how ever powerful, would venture to lay on taxes to the extent of £15,000,000 sterling a year. We are, therefore, irresistibly led to the conclusion that, ere long, France will reduce her expenditure, and allow other nations to do the same. The withdrawal of the French from Rome will be of itself a great saving to France, and likewise to Italy. Who can doubt but that the military pos session of Rome by the Fre nc h i s a s ource of anx iety to Austria, who would r e d uce her army in I ta ly to-morrow were it not from the fear of a joint attack by Italy and France on Venice. The French once removed from Rome the anxiety of Austria would cease, for she well knows that Italy alone is no match for her, and she would no t f a il to mark her sense of security by a reduction of her mili tary establishments. Are we not, then, justified in believing that so far as Europe is concerned there is a probability of an early disarmament, and, as a con sequence, a gradual improvement in its finaneea ?

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Great Western Railway (Additional Powers) Bill was read a second time. THIRD REA.DINGS. The Wilford Bridge, Londonderry, and Coleraine—ln verness and Aberdeen Junction, and Inverness and Ross shire Railway—Dollow and Kilmore Commons Inelosure-- Leadburn, Linton, and Dolphinton Railway, and London and South Western Railway (additional powers) bills were read a third time and passed. BUSIi'ESS OF THE HOUSE. The Marquis of BATH had given notice of his in tention of moving for a select committee to consider the re solution of the house regulating the mode of taking divi sions in their lordships' house. The noble marquis referred to the mistake made by the Bishop of Winchester the other evening, when that rev. prelate went into the wrong lobby. If their lordships should be of opinion that the remedy could be met by a resolution, he should not press for the committee, although he thought the subject could be dealt with in the manner he proposed. He thought the way in which divisions were taken in that house was very inconvenient, and he urged that the same mode should be adopted by their lordships as was the practice in the House of Commons. Earl GRANVILLE thought the matter had been consi dered by the noble lord the chairman of committees, and he had framed a resolution that would meet the matter in question. Lord REDESDALE moved the following resolution : " That if any lord shall have by mistake gone out with the Contents or Not-Contents (as the case may be), having intended to vote on the other side, he shall wait until the other lords in the same lobby shall have passed out, and on presenting him self to the tellers desire that he may not be counted by them, he having entered that lobby by mistake; and the tellers shall thereupon come with such lord to the table and inform the house of the circumstance, and shall ask the said lord whether he was in the house when the question wa■ put, and, if he should reply in the affirmative, whether he desires to vote content or not content on such question, and the vote of the said lord as then declared by him shall be taken by the tellers in the house, and recorded by them accordingly."—Agreed to. -- PRGISTER OF VOTERS BILL. This bill was react a third time imu Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS-YESTERDAY. Tho SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. WITHDRAWAL OF THE PETITION AGAINST MAJOR O'REILLY. The SPEAKER announced that the petition against the return of Major O'Reilly, the sitting member for Longford, was withdrawn. PRIVATE EUSINESS. The foll Owing bills were read a third time and passed : Bolton and Blackburn Road—Bridge of Weir Railway— Falmouth Water—Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway.

The following bills were read a second time :—North British Insurance Company, Reading and Reading Union Gas Companies, Wakefield Water, and Windermere Dis trict Gas. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the unjust opera tion of the income tax, for an alteration in the Poor-Law Act, for a reduction of the national expenditure, Bic. NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. BRAND, a writ was ordered to issue for the election of a member for the borough of Kid derminster, in the room of Mr. Bristow, resigned. CHURCH RATES. In reply to Sir J. TRELAWNY, Mr. S. ESTCOURT said he considered that he entered into an engagement with the house to bring on the subject of the church rates unless Government took the initiative, Ho proposed to bring on a motion on the subject next Friday. DISTRESS IN IRELAND. Mr. MAGUIRE gave notice that on Friday week he would draw the attention of the house to the distress pre vailing in the south and west of Ireland, and to ask the Government questions in reference to the same. CUSTOMS INLAND REVENUE BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Mr. DISRAELI rose to draw the attention of the house to the existing state of the finances of the country. He contended that the defence of the country and the mainte nance of our empire were matters of paramount importance, and he was not one of those whe would imperil them merely with a view to financial retrenchment. (Hear, hear.) At the same time he thought that, in the present state of the finances of this country, it was necessary that there should be the greatest economy in the public expenditure. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his statement the other evening, made an admission that the finances of the country were not in a healthy condition, and vet there was no pro position on the part of the Government to restore it to a sanitary state. He contrasted the expenditure in regard to military and naval matters between 1859 and the present year, and contended that the present expenditure for this department of the public ser vice was uncalled for. In the former year there were exceptional demands on the next year, and no doubt last year there were also exceptional demands, but there was nothing to justify the increase of £5,000,000 in the military and naval expenditure. The right hon. gentleman having indulged in some caustic criticism as to the style of the Chancellor of the Exchequer in introducing his finan cial statement, contended that there was nothing really in the state of Europe, where the greatest powers were ex hibiting symptoms of tranquillity, that called for a huge military expenditure. The noble lord at the head of her Majesty's Government had candidly stated the reason that influenced Government in its military expenditure, viz., that France wanted to rival the maritime power of this country. (" Hear, hear," from the Conservative benches.) That was a most important matter to be understood. If such were the desire of the Emperor of the French, then he stated emphatically that it was not policy of this coun try to be in alliance with France. He contended that the fleet of Etigland should stand in the position of the army of France, and he objected to the fact of the number of iron ships in the French navy being taken :as a test of the relative strength of the navies of the two countries. He appealed to the House to approach this subject in a practical spirit. They must consider that France was either a friend or a foe. If the latter, then he contended that all the discoveries of science should be libe rally applied to enable us to compete with so extraordinary a rival ; but if, as he believed was the case, that France had no desire to supersede the maritime supremacy of this country, then the present war expenditure was altogether uncalled for, and was most reprehensible. (Hear, from the Opposition.) The right hon. gentleman then assailed the fOreign policy of the Premier, which he said was unaltered from that pursued in 1857, and which was founded on the principle of maintaining a war armament in time of peace. (Hear, hear.) It might be said that he was inconsistent in not having opposed the financial statement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer when it was delivered. In 1858 the army and navy expenditure was £22,297,000, in 1859 it was £26,308,000 —an increase of £4,000,000. In 1860 it rose to £29,218,000, and in 1861 to £29,443,000. In 1862 the expenditure, after making every deduction, amounted to £5,000,000 more than in 1858, and £1,674,000 beyond that of 1859. This was a subject for grave conside ration, and the house should inquire what was the cause of this large increase. They had been told by Lord Palmer ston that the cause of this great expenditure was that France had long been endeavouring to equal the naval power of England, and in the same breath that there was no ground for objecting to France pursuing this policy. He, however, joined issue with the First Miuleter upon this point. If France was really pursuing this policy, a a policy calculated to create distrust and inquietude in this country, and causing great expense, he (Mr. Disraeli) was against an alliance with France. If France was actit, g thus, she was not only giving cause for distrust and jealousy, but would even justify England in going to war with her. If France was not pursuing this policy, where was the ne cessity of our extraordinary armaments ? Now, was she pursuing this policy ? So far as he could form an opinion she had not yet reached the programme put before the Go vernment in 1858, and he insisted that there was nothing tot justify extraordinary armame nts on our part at presen more than in 1858. Lord P A . LMERSTON, after replying to the remarks of Mr. DianAmr, upon the subjects referred to.inonthbeelahttaedr part of his speech, observed that the compans increase of only £1,600,000, between 1858 and 1862 showed an, £1,600,000, and there were circumstancefs such as the Chivy, war, New Zealand, and the despatch o troops te Canada, which had involved an extraordinary outlay. The Govern ment had reduced our army and navy expenditure, and would continue to do so whenever opportunities offered, The amount of our military force was justified by the testi mony of General Peel, who had actually objected to the insufficiency of the money vote; and as to the navy, Sir J. Pakington had urged its increase by representing the naval preparations of the French. Mr. Disraeli had misappr e .. hended what he said with reference to those preparations. He (Lord Palmerston) had said that we had no right to make an international objection to the amount of naval force which France might think proper to maintain ; but it did not follow, because we were upon good terms with France, that we were to allow her to acquire a stronger naval force than ourselvez. It was a miter of necessity, looking to the extent of our commerce and of our possessions abroad, that our navy should not only be equal, but superior to that of France. We did not expect France to be our enemy ; at the same time, the French were but men, and it was not i n human nature to forbear taking advantage of superior force. It was because he wished to remain at peace with France that he did not desire to tempt her by allowing her to acquire a superiority by sea to become our enemy. Con sidering the immense military foroe of France, it was aboo lutoly necessary for the interests and safety of this country that w e s h ou l d have a strong nava l f orce, equa l, or superior, to that of France ; and this could not be done without con siderable expense. The French Government had now 11 iron-clad vessel, more than ourselves, and, according to Mr. Disraeli, they had not yet carried out their programme of 1858. Mr. LINDSAY disputed the correctness of the estimate of the iron-clad navy of France, the Government of which, he believed, continued to desire the maintenance of friendly relations with this country. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY asked whether there would be any Supplementary Estimates, and whether a vote of credit would be required for the China war. He objected to the bill before the house, that it mixed up various taxes so as to render a discussion of the bill difficult. After some remarks by Mr. HUNT and Mr. B. CARTE; on the subject of the collection of the income-tax, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave a qualified negative reply to the questions put by Sir H. Willoughby. M r •. J. WRITE and - Mr. NEWDEGATE having made a Few observations, the bill was read a third time and pissed. THE BRITISH MUSEUM BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in i nev i ng the second reading of this bill, stated the object of the measure, and explained the views of the Government in relation to the proposed alterations in the Museum and the removal of a part of the collection, giving a conjectural estimate of the expense. Mr. GREGORY strongly objected to the enormous ex penditure, utterly disproportioned, he said, to the object in view; and to the plan itself, which had been disapproved by every man of science who had been examined before the committee, except Professor Owen. He analysed the pro posed plan, pointing out what he considered its objection able features, and dwelt upon the vices of the existing system and mana geme nt, continued by the bill, which set aside and contravened the decisions of the committee. He moved to defer the second reading for six months. Mr. M. MILNE S did not consider the subject of economy was involved in the bill. The question was whether the Museum should be a scientific institution or a mere exhi bition. If the former, it ought to be dealt with liberally. He supported the second reading. Lord H. LENNOX objected to the prospect of expense which the bill offered, and especially to a radical defect in it, in the proposal to transfer to South Kensington the body of trustees, whose management was so generally condemned. Mr, H. SEYMOUR condemned the removal of the col lection from the present site. l'rofessor Owen did not de bite mes xeuiuy../ , 114 witut.eu °Lily autumnal ewe. Mr. S. BOOTH objected that the bill proposed division instead of concentration, and a divided administration,which would occasion great public inconvenience. Mr. PULLER, observing that the real difficulty was as to the disposal of the antiquities. suggested a more econo mical arrangement than that proposed by the bill, Mr. WALPOLE, in supporting the bill, acknowledged that he had been in favour of keeping the collection toge ther : but, for reasons he stated, this, he observed, was no longer a matter of choice, but of necessity. Ten years ago the Museum might have been extended, and the present difficulty got rid of; but the refusal of the Government and the action of the house had prevented the adoption of the proposal of the trustees. Mr. COX opposed the bill on financial grounds. Sir G. LEWIS said this question had been referred by the Executive Government to the trustees of the Museum, including persons of various opinions, who agreed that some separation of the collection was a matter of necessity. Land in the immediate vicinity of the Museum being more expensive than in the suburbs, it was proposed to remove a part of the collection to Kensington. Another reason was that by maintaining the collection in one building effici ency of management was prevented. _ _ _ Mr. OSBORNE observed that the Chancellor of tho Ex chequer's modest estimate of the expense of the removal was £680,000, but the question was where the money was to come from. The house had been twitted with its extra vagance; let it then test the Government whether they were sincere in their aspirations after economy. • After a few words from Col. SYKES, Lord PALMERSTON observed that it was agreed by all that an extension of space was required, and the only question was whether land should be purchased in the neighbourhood of the Museum at £50,000 an acre, or, as proposed by the bill, at Kensington for £lO,OOO an acre, and, strange to say, the advocates of economy preferred the most expensive plan. Mr. HENLEY said he objected to the hill on this simple ground—that it proposed to give power to the trustees of the Museum to do something that would cost the country between £600,000 and £700,000. • Upon a division, the amendment was carried by 163 to to 71, a majority of 92 against the Government; so the Bill is lost. On the order for the third reading of the Peace Pre servation (Ireland) Bill, Colonel DICKSON called attention to the recent mur ders in Ireland, observing that the Government was bound to take some steps to grapple with crimes which, he be lieved, were connected with the land. Sir R. PEEL said there had been no neglect on the part of the authorities ; prompt measures had been taken by them to arrest the criminals, and in the most recent case the murdererlad been immediately seized and identified. He deprecated a departure from the ordinary course of the law, firmly administered. A discussion of some length followed upon the subject, in the course of which the Government were strongly urged to reorganize the constabulary, so as to give them less of a military and more of a police character. The Bill was read a third time and passed. The remaining orders having been disposed of, the House adjourned at 25 minutes past 2 o'clock. PARLIAMENTARY DI VISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MAY 19.

KILMALLOCK, MAY 17.—The alleged perpetrators of the foul crime—One of whom has been made amenable—were previously unknown in this loca lity. The party arrested gives his name as Thomas Beckham, and is said to be a native of the county of Tipperary. He was fully identified at the in quest held this day before Dr. Murphy, coroner, by the wife of the deceased, was in company with her husband at the time he was shot. Both assassins were armed with loaded pistols, and, having accosted the deceased in a field about half a mile from his own house, at half-past 3 o'clock, they demanded his money. He replied that he had none, whereupon both fired at him and ran off. One of the bullets penetrated the neck at the left side, passed through the wind pipe, and went below the right ear• s The other entered under the left shoulder blade, passed through the right lung, breaking one of the ribs and lodging in the left side, from which it was extracted by Drs. Riordan and O'Connell, who made a post mortem examination of the body, which was laid out in the parlour of his residencrs. The deceased was the son of the late O'Connell Fitzgerald, brewer, of Limerick. He was its dent at Kilmallock only since he was married, a period of about nine months. It was represented to me that some disputes existed between himself and his tenantry, and ho h a d t h reatened to evict some of them from their holdings. Regardi ng t h e ac curacy of these rumours I have nought to say save that they were related to me as facts. It was also represented that Mr. Fitzgerald was otherwise a kind and amiably-diposed person, and made ma ny friends for himself during his short stay in Kilmallock. The party accused is about fi‘-e feet six inches in height, apparently between fifty and sixty years of age. Report states that he was formerly tried bat acquitted of a murder at Ballina hinch. _ _ The wife of the deceased, Mary Caroline Fitzge rald, was the first witness examined. She appeared to be suffering from intense grief, and when she saw the prisoner, she became fearfully excited, and cried " Ah, you are the murderer, you ruffian you ; we were happy when we tnet_you yester day." In reply to the coroner, she said, "I am the wife of the deceased Francis Fitsgerald. We were married only nine months. We came to live in this neighbourhood about a fortnight after our marriage. I recollect having gone to walk with the deceased yesterday, about half-past two or three o'clock. We went to see Kelly's farm, which is distant about two miles from the cottage. There was no 'me with us at the time. Kelly's farm is situated in Brisheen ; we were never together there before. After remaining there about a quarter of an hour we returned towards home, and when we had come about half way the prisoner and another man came up to us. One of them wore a Jerry hat. The prisoner then said, " Stand, my man." The Prisoner—l had no hall to him, more than I had to yourself. Witness—That villain there is the person that said to my darling, " Stand my man ; I want your money." Coroner—l wish to God it was the money he took. Witness—l said, " Francis, give: him your money, give him everything you have ;" the deceased said he had no money ; the other man then came towards me, and my hus band pulled me away; they were not a bit disguised ; after my husband told them he had no money the prisoner said, " then, I will have your life," or " I will take your life ;" I don't exactly remember which of the words he used. lie then took out a pistol from inside the breast of his coat and shot him ; I am quite sure that the man there (the prisoner) is the man who shot him ; I have no doubt whatever as to his identity. My husband was loved by everybody but by that wretch there; he would not harm anybody. Coroner—l am sure he would not. He was the last person in the neighbourhood that deserved such, a death. The witness continued to say—When the prisoner fired my husband staggered ; I then heard another shot, after which both the men jumped over the wall and ran away ; the other man was younger than the prisoner ; I have no hesitation whatever in swearing most positively that the prisoner is the man who ' fired the first shot; there is something in his eyes that I would know ; my husband did not fall after he was wounded; he laid himself down slowly, and, told me to go call Miss Kelly, which I did; Wen we returned we found Mr. John Hannon ar_.d his two daughters with the deceased ; we tl A en got a door and brought him home, and dent for Dr. O'Connell ; he died about eight oViock ; he was in perfect health before the occurrence ; he said he would know the murderers ; that man there is one of them ; I recognised his voice when he spoke a while ago ; it was he that said " stand, my man," yesterday. The prisoner declined to ask the 'witness any questions. A LETTER FROM GARIBALDI. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—lt is to my knowledge that Italian arms have fallen into Turkish hands, lam assured that the transport of these arms has been escorted by English vessels from Galatz to the place where they were delivered over to the Mussulman Government, which is said to be disposed to give them back again, should the English Government not object to it.
