The facts of this complicated case have already appeared at length in The Sun, during the examination of the accused at the Guildhall police-court. The prisoner had a con siderable practice, but it appears that he became, as alleged, a defaulter for a considerable amount, and a fiat of bank ruptcy was issued against him. He did not surrender, but went to Australia. Brett, one of the city deteotives, was despatched after him, and in the course of a few months returned with him in custody. Several objections were taken by Mr. Hawkins with regard 'to certain 'proceedings in bankruptcy, but the Court overruled them, and added they would be riserved to point as to the proof in respect of the confirmation of the adjudication in bankruptcy for the Court of Error, if it was deemed necessary by the learned counsel. The examination of witnesses was then proceeded with. The case is not expected to terminate before to-morrow afternoon. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Keating.) ALLEGED CHILD MURDER. Charlotte llubble, 30, a domestic servant, was indicted under the coroner's inquisition for the wilful murder of her female infant. Mr. Tindal Atkinson conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was a domestic servant, residing at Eltham, in Kent. The land lord of the house in which the prisoner lodged was awoke one night by hearing a noise overhead. His wife also awoke, and both were induced to proceed to the prisoner's apartment, and there evidence presented itself that she had been delivered of a ohild. Medical aid was sent for, but the prisoner denied that she had given. birth to a child. The surgeon, feeling certain that such had taken place, the room was searched, and in a box under the bed was found the dead body of a full grown female child, with a piece of tape tied tightly round its neck. A coroner's inquest was held on the body, and the surgeon stated that the lungs of the child, on being subjected to the usual tests, gave the appearances of its having been born alive, and consequently a verdict of wilful murder was returned against the prisoner. Mr. Sleigh made a very eloquent appeal to the jury fer the prisoner, and The learned Judge, inhis summing up, told the jurybefore they could convict the prisoner of the crime of murder they must be satisfied that sho intended to kill the child, it being then alive and an independent being. If they thought that the tape was used by the prisoner during par turition, and death was thereby caused, that would not be sufficient to justify a verdict of wilful murder. After an absence of about 20 minutes the jury returned into court with a verdict of not guilty of murder, but guilty of concealment of the birth. Mr. Justice Keating said the jury had, he thought, taken a merciful view of the case, and had acquitted her of the capital offence. It was of the greatest importance that offences similar to that of which the prisoner had been con victed should be put down by the strong arm of the law, and he was therefore compelled to pass a severe sentence. The learned judge then ordered the prisoner to be irapri • soned for 18 months with hard labour. T 111 RD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) ROBBERY BY A BARMAID. Emily Smith was indicted for stealing money the pro perty of her employer. Mr. Langford prosecuted, and Mr. Metcalfe defended the prisoner. The prosecutor, Frederick White, said—l keep the White Hart Tavern, Leo, Kent. The prisoner was in my employ as barmaid, and had been so for 10 months. On the Bth of December I received an intimation from my wife which inducedme, after I had closed thehouse at night, top:amine the till. I found there half-a-crown and 3s. I marked those pieces and replaced them, and on the following morn ing, Saturday, about 11 o'clock, I went to the till and missed the marked money I had placed there the night be fore. On the same Saturday night, after the house was closed and the prisoner had gone to bed, I looked in the till again and found two half •crowns and a florin. I marked those in the presence of constable Brown, and replaced them. At a quarter before 10 o'clock on the Sunday morning I came down stairs, the prisoner having gone down before me I examined the till and found that the two half crowns and florin were gone. I called the constable and also the prisoner into the parlour, and told her she had stolen some money from the till. She re plied, "Taken money from the till 1" The constable told the prisoner to show what money she had, when she became greatly agitated, and then said that she wished Mr. White to leave the - room, and she would give up all the money she had in her possession. The constable objected to any person leaving the room, and he said "We must obtain thoservices of a female searcher." I left for that purpose, but when I returned I saw Brown put his hand into the prisonet's pocket and take out two marked half-crowns and a florin. Constable Brown said he searched the prisoner's room, and found a purse in a drawer, in which was some of the money that had been missed on the Saturday morning. Mr. Metcalfe addressed the jury for the prisoner, and contended that the prosecution had altogether failed to show that the prisoner had taken the money from the till. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty, and The Common Sergeant sentenced her to 12 months' im prisonment, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER—TuEsDAY. TILE MEET.

CORN EXCHANGE. The quantity of barley on the stands was rather limited. On the whole, the trade ruled steady, at full quotations. The malt trade was in a very inactive state, and prices were barely supported. We had a good demand for oats, at extreme currencies. Both beans and peas were very dull, at Monday's decline ; flour, however, was firm in price. To-day's market was again scantily supplied with Eng lish wheat, coastwise and by land carriage. There was a moderate inquiry for the few samples of fine and useful quirlity on offer, at full prices. Damp parcels, however, moved off slowly, at late currencies. The show of foreign wheat was rather limited, and im porters, generally, were very firm in their demands. Most descriptions moved off slowly, but without leading to any change in value. Floating cargoes of grain were a slow inquiry, but no cheaper. AURITALS TUIS WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt.

The legal profession in the town, who held him in high estimation, presented him with ad dresses in St. George's-hall. Mr. James Flood, auctioneer, of St, Wells-street, said the prisoner entered his empl.y as a servant on the 21st of October, ho receiving a good character with her. On the 21th of the same month the sum above alluded to never reached him, and the same night the prisoner decamped. without the slightest notice. He immediately offered a re ward for apprehension, and gave notice at the Marylebone station, but hoard nothing of the prisoner till the previous evening, when being told that she was in the Female Peni tentiary, White Lion-street, Pontonville, he gave her into custody. She had stated to him that she had lived at 27, Barrett's-court, Marylebone. He had a little girl present who was also in his employ, to whom on the night she de camped she showed the money. Emma Standing, the girl alluded to, said the prisoner showed her a bank note and some gold and silver, and said she should like to have it. Perry, 239 F, said he took the prisoner into custody at the Female Penitentiary, White Lion-street, Fentonville. She said nothing at the time, but on the way to the station he remarked that he supposed the money had done no good to her, and she said she had spent the money on those who would not spend twopence on her. _ _ _ The prisenor, sobbing, said she was gui.ty of the charge. Mr. Beadon committed her for trial. THAMES. A FIT CANDIDATE FOR A REFORMATORY SHIP.— Frederick Rowley, 13, was brought before Mr. Yardley charged with picking pockets. The prisoner set up a dismal howling on being put into the dock, and continued whining end pretending to cry during during the investigation of his cast, but not a tear was shod. He was seen by a police. stable attempting to pick the pockets of several gentlemen. At last ho was caught inflagrante delicto taking a silk hand kerchief from a gentleman's pocket. Ho was proved to have been several times in custody, and twice summarily con victed. Ho was once in custody with three others for steal ing a large quantity of boots from a house in Cable-street, Wellcloso- square, and was admitted as evidence for the Crown. The jury did nit believe the prisoner, and his con federates were acquitted. The prisoner was subsequently tried at the Sessions for robbing a sailor, and owing to the absence of the prosecutor was acquitted. Kelly, a police-constable, 100 H, said the prisoner had been a thief, and the associate of thieves, for the last four years. The father of the prisoner, a cigar maker, said his son was incorrigible. _ _ . Mr. Yardley said he would prevQnt the boy preying upon the public any longer, and would send him to a reformatory ship. Tho prisoner here roared loudly, and said, "Pray don't, pray don't, sir ! I'll be a good boy. I won't prig any more." Mr. Yardley—You have said that before. Your father cannot reclaim you. You are a very dangerous person, and the State must take charge of you. I sentence you to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for one month, and afterwards to bz: detained in a reformatory Ship for four years, and your father to pay 2s. per week towards your maintenance for the first two years. DISORDERLY DISCHARGED SOLDIERS I'lloll INDIA. — The district of this court was in a state of commotion last night owing to the riotous and violent conduct of many discharged soldiers, 413 of whom were landed from a ship which arrived from Bombay yesterday. Several of the offenders were brought up in custody before Mr. Yardley, this day, charged with assaults, wilful damage, and being drunk and:riotous. F. Concoran was fined £3 for a savage and dastardly assault on Mr. Smith, landlord of the Black Horse publichouse, Tower-hill. John Ferguson was charged with rushing into the Thistle beer-shop, Hermitage-street, Wapping, abusing the landlady, Mrs. Brown, and breaking sundry glasses, in doing which one of his fingers was nearly divided. He was fined 10s. Other discharged soldiers charged with being drunk and incapable were set at liberty. Mr. Yardley said that when discharged soldiers were let loose upon the town they became a terror to every body. THIS DA Y'S SIIIPPLY6I.

THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON'S NENir TABERNACLE. —Ou Monday evening last the friends of Mr. Spurgeon held a meeting at Now Park •street Chapol with the view of presenting their pastor with a New Year's offering to wards the completion of the new Tabernacle. A report was read by Mr. Cook, the honorary secretary, of the ieceipta and expenditure since the commencement of the undia • taking, from which it appeared that the amount already collected was mil) sufficient to answer about one-half the requirements for the completion of the building. The. sum of £9,000 was already absorbed in the purchase of the ground and for other purposes. More than 100 men were constantly employed, and the walls were rapidly rising. There was still at the banker's £B,OOO, which is a large sum, but when it was taken into consideration t bat at least £30,000 would be needed by the time the b uilding was finished it would be at once sewn that there mus .t be no lack of energy on Mr. Spurgeon's friends' part til 1 the money that was wanted was obtained. The gentleuia n who gave £3,000 on the laying of the first stone had forw. trelod to the secretary an intimation that he would give 1 2,000 more. Several gentlemen addressed the meeting, i very warmly ad vocating the work, and remar ked that t was; t ruly sur prising that so large a sum should have been col to cted in so short a time by the followers of this popular pr encher. It is confidently hoped that by the end of this year the Taber nacle will be finished and opened for public servZce entirely free from debt. The Rev. J. W. Hallward was yest( IT day ap pointed to the chaplaincy of the 'Wandsworth House of Correction, vacant by the resignation of the litev. Mr. Hatch. The preparations for the opening of the upper half of the new bridge at 'Westminster are pro gressing with great rapidity. Yesterday the hoard ing, which during the last two years has hidden the works from foot passengers over the bridge, was removed, and the new bridge is now exposed to public gaze. From the crown of the old bridge to the middle of the new—for the new is so nearly flat that it can scarcey be said to hava a crown at all—the distanue is eight or nine feet, a diminution of rise which will render the passage of the new bridge a very easy matter for horses and vehicles. A double iron tramway is laid down on the lower side of the new structure for the fast traffic, while the remainder, intended for the slow vehicles, has been macadamised, and both portions are ready for opening. The footway remains to be made, but this will be proceeded with simultaneously with the con struction of the approaches, already in progress. The block of houses from the Old lied Lion, at the foot of the bridge, to Stangate, about 12 in num ber, are in course of demolition, and at the West minstor end of the bridge. Nos. 26, 27, and 28, Bridge street, consisting of Denton's Hotel and the two adjoining houses beneath the Victoria Clock Tower, have been vacated by the tenants, and the carcases are advertised by the Board of Works for carly sale next week. These also are to be imme diately demolished, and there seems no reason why the new half of the bridge should not be open to public traffic in a month. Meanwhile the prepara tions are actively going forward for laying the foundation of the piers of the other half of the bridge. ABINGDON GAOL. The question of closing the gaol at Abingdon was finally con.sidered at the Epiphany Sessions for Belles, held at Reading on Monday. At the Michaelmas Sessions, when most of the magistrates expected that the gaol at Abingdon would be wholly closed, the discovery was made by the Right Hon. E. P. Bouverie, M.P., that certain steps had been omitted to be taken, and that there core all former proceedings had become a nullity. He proposed that a committee should be appointed for the purposeof considering what steps should be taken to accomplish the object, having special regard to the interests which the borough of Abingdon claimed in the maintenance of a gaol, from having in the year 1805 given up the old gaol and a site on which the existing county gaol was erected. The motion was seconded by Mr. Walter, M.P., and carried by a large majority. As it was anticipated that the question would as sume a different form at the present sessions, there was a considerable gathering of magistrates. The chair was filled by Mr. R. Palmer, late M.P. for the county. A report from the committee appointed at the last sessions, signed by the Right Hon. E. P. Bouverie, M.P., was read by the Clerk of the Peace. Mr. T. L. Cx'ooDLAKE remarked that the Court had determited the expediency some time ago of closing the gaol at Abingdon, as by the erection of the one at Reading it had become unnecessary. The Right Hon. E. P. BOUVERIE, M.P., said the simplest answer that could be given to Mr. Good lake's remarks was that the Court really had not the power to do it. The question of the expediency of closing Abingdon Gaol was very properly dis cussed by the Court, and upon the facts stated the Court, whether rightly or wrongly, decided that it was expedient to close the establishment. Then there arose this question about the legality of their proceedings, the rights of the borough of Abing don, and the power of the Court to close the gaol. It was in consequence of these doubts and difficul ties, which seemed. o tie their hands and made them feel like persons groping in the dark, that he (Mr. Bouverie) at the last quarter sessions proposed that the question be referred to a committee to ascert tin the position in which the county magistrates stiod. Mr. IValter, the hon. member for the county, seconded the motion, and it was carried. It had been said that the legality of their proceedings had no reference to the expediency of the question ; but he (Mr. Bouverie) contended that it was not expedient for the county to do a thing which was not strictly legal. (Hear, hear.) It would not be expedient to close Abingdon Gaol if the attempt to eo so would involve law proceedings on the one hand, or a breach of the law which-would leave them open to be proceeded against either by process from the Queen's Bench, or the Secretary of State. The hands of the county were tied, and the committee to whom the question was referred dealt with it like practical, sensible men of busi ness, and grappled with the first difficulty that arose. The question first presented to them was, — What could the magistrates do, and if they could do anything, how were they to do it ? They de cided that they ought to take learned advice, and they felt that they could not do better than submit the whole question to Mr. Tomlinson, who thouzli not known out of tLe profession, was well known in the profession as a man of very great ability and experience. That learned gentleman had' given a very clear and decided opinion as to the powers of the county, and Mr. Tomlinson and Mr. Wickens had given their joint opinion as to the rights of the Corporation of Abingdon. That being the state of things, he submitted to the Court, whatever might be their opinion as to the abstract question of ex pediency, that their hands were tied—that it was of no use starting this question to be discussed over again without anything practical which would re sult from,it. (Hear, hear.) He trusted, after what the committee had done, the Court would be of opinion with him that the best mode of dealing with Abingdon Gaol was to leave it in the condi tion it was in at the present time. He approached the consideration of the question in the first place without any feeling of bias, or, if he had any, it was in favour of the closing of the gaol ; but finding that there were great legal difficulties in the way, he was of opinion that the matter should remain as they now found it. (Hear, hear.) Mr. MERRY was unwilling to revive a discussion upon the question, but he wished the Court to sus pend forming any decisive opinion upon the matter for the present. He was not aware of the course which the committee pursued with reference to tak ing the opinion of counsel, but he had placed it in the hands of a thoroughly disinterested solicitor,to draw up a case from the deed upon which the Corporation of Abingdon relied, as justifying the claim they made for the county maintaining the gaol, in order to take the opinion of the ablest lawyer in the kingdom—the Attorney-General. That opinion he expected that day to have received, but it had not reached them. In the absence of that opinion, and from such a person, he asked the Court to defer judgment on the question until lie had had an op portunity of laying that opinion before them. Mr. G. CHERRY observed that the opinion of the Attorney-General would only be upon the deed of 1805, while the opinions obtained from the other learned gentlemen had been given upon the deed in conjunction with. subsequent proceedings. The deed was not the only thing to be considered. Mr. Bros said an opinion upon the deed of 1805 would not influence the Court on the question of closing the gaol. Supposing the Attorney-General gave an opinion contrary to the other two gentle men, the Court could nit close an existing gaol. That was the real question. It could only be done by Parliament with the sanction of the authorities of Abingdon. The report of the committee on the whole question was ordered to be entered on the records of the Court, without any formal motion being made in reference to it. The result of the proceedings is that Abingdon Gaol, which by previous quarter sessions was ordered to be abolished, will be re tained, unless the county can arrange with the borough of Abingdon for its being closed, and their prisoners transferred to Reading on terms as ad vantageous as at present. PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Park is about per milk d, and the short exchange ou London is 2.5.10 per D. sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is at about 2-10ths por cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.3/ per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is therefore about 3- lOths per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of ex change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 109/ per cent., which, when compared with the Mint proportions between the two countries, shows that tho ex change is about at par ; and, after making allowance for charges of transport and difference of interest, the present rate leaves no profit on tho irunnrtation of gold from the United States. THE LATE WEST YORKSHIRE ELECTION.—At a meeting of the central committee of the West Riding Con servative Association, held at Wakefield on Friday last, the Hon. Edwin Lascelles in the chair, it was resolved that, under the circumstanees of the case, the total expenditure on the Conservative side at the late election ought to be defrayed by 'the West Riding, and that the Hon. James Stuart Wortley, who was the Conservative candidate at that election, ought not to be a contributor, and that a fund be raised to defray the outstanding liabilities. Some hundreds of pounds were subscribed at the meetimr. THE ALESSANDRIA GUNS. —The Minister of War at Turin has published an account of the subscription com menced in 1856 for the 100 guns Of Alessandria. The sum subscribed in Italy amount:el to 106,459 f. ; that subscribed in foreign countries, to 47,454 f., making a total of 153,913 f., besides a piece of ordnan ce sent by the citizens of Boston , and another sent by M. Carlo Perla of Aarau. The above sum being sufficient to cover the expense of 126 guns already cast, the Minister has given orders to place them all in the fortress of Alessandria. Each of them is to have engraved upon it the motto, "National offering, 1856," and the name of one or more of the donors, the list of which is published with the above account. Among the names we find those of Victor Emmanuel I 1., Norberto Rosa (the originator of the subscription), Manin, the press, the army, the Italian students, the Italians at Rio Janeiro, Odessa, Boston, Chili, Peru, Bologna, Brescia, Aarau, Paris, 6:e. " First, we must have its nu►abers increased as much as possible. " Secondly, it must be divided into three cate gories—the sedentary, or veteran militia, consisting of old men destined to the service of the towns; t he active militia, which might do duty in the environs of the towns, could garrison fmqrcsses, &c.; and mobilo or moveable militia, to whom all those men should belong who, without being actual soldiers, might, be capable of taking the field with the regu lar troops in the case of need. This third category should immediately embrace all the numerous at-, cees and soldiers who, for any other but a dis honourable Motive, happen to be now out of em ploymont. "The men of the third category should receive, if they need it, some subsidy ; Or indemnity, which ought, however, to be something very different from a regular pay or stipend. Patriotism would easily put up with the modicity of such a subsidy. I have myself served the popular cause in America for a periol of 14 years without any remuneration whatever. There can, you know, be no lack of men to offer their free services to their own country. " It would not be difficult, out of a select national militia, to form corps of mounted Guides, as we managed in the late war—such light skirmishers being found greatly more useful than any expen sive and unwieldy regular cavalry—at least for all the purposes of Italian warfare. The Zouaves and the Hunters of the Alps have very lately shown that it is quite possible to fight very excellently without being choked by a stock or stiflcd with tight lacing. A national armament, such as I conceive it, would just suit the highly patriotic soul of Ricasoli ; and if he makes himself the promoter of it, there will be no man unwilling to help, applaud, and imitate it. Do that, my dear friends, and I assure you God and the Congress will then be with us. " G. GARIBALDI." PRO-PAPAL _MEETING IN LONDON. Last night ",an indignation meeting" of Roman Catholics, most numerously attended, convened at the instance of the Catholic Aid Association, was held in the Hanover-square Rooms, Mr. Richard Keeley acting as chairman. There could not have been less than 2,000 persons present. The meeting was called for the purpose of affording the Catholics of the metropolis an oppot tunity of pub licly expressing their feelings of devoted attach ment to the Pope, and their indignation, at the attempt now in contemplation to despoil the Holy Father of his temporal jurisdiction and power. The greatest unanimity, approaching often to en. thusiasm, was evinced by the audience, a consider- able number of whom were women, throughout tho whole proceedings, which lasted several hours. The _ platform was alni'o;it as crowded as the body of the hall, but there were few, if any, persons of note among either the Roman Catholic clergy or laity upon it. Some &man Catholic priests were preseni, but they took no part in the proceedings so far as speaking went. The admission to tho hall was free, but by ticket, and to the platform and some reserved seats by tickets, sold at ls. each. Let ters of apology, assigning various reasons for not being able to attend the meeting, but all expressing sympathy with its object, were read from the Roman Catholic bishops of Birmingham and Shrewsbury, and the Vicar-Apostolic of the northern; district of Scotland ; also from the Rev. Canon Oakley, Lord Fielding, the Hon. Charles Langdale, and Mr. M. J. Rhodes. Mr. H. J. Prendergast, who said it was his pride to have been, with Daniel O'Connell, one of the original founders of the Catholic Association, and to have stood by it to the last, moved the first resolution :—" That the temporal power of the Pope had been the source of numerous blessings to mankind, by tno extension of the Catholic faith, the diffusion of knowledge, and the promotion of the arts and sciences." lie asked, amid the applause of the meeting, who feared for the supremacy of the Pope ? No true Catholic could do so. He should doubt his own existence if he hesitated for a moment to believe in the power of that supremacy to resist all th© efforts of man and of hell to overthrow it, based as it was on the eternal Word of God. It was not for the Pope that the Catholics feared, but for the injury which the great interests of Christianity might sustain at this crisis from the violence of wicked and the artifices of insidious men. After criticising, in some detail, what he called " the most flagitious pamphlet' of M. La Gucrronicre, whom he designated as "an insignificant person, of no weight in society," Mr. Prendergast asked why that pamphlet had acquired all its significance ? Because, said he, there was an identity of feeling between the writer of it and the author of another brochure which heralded one of the most atrocious crimes by which society had ever been outraged— namely, the Franco-Sardinian invasion of Austrian Lombardy. lie was happy, however, to learn that New Year's-day had passed at the Tuileries without any foreign Minister there having been Hub nerised. It was impossible, he said, for any sane person to come to any other conclusion than that the sentiments embodied in the pamphlet in ques tion were those of the French Emperor. If that were not, why did not the Emperor state explicitly, in the face of the whole world, that he was not re- sponsible for the sentiments contained in it? Until he did that no Catholic would put trust in him, and there would be no Congress. They (the meeting) had assembled there as Catholics, having no personal or anti-national feelings to indulge, but simply to protest against a coercion which was most injurious to their religion, pregnant with mis chief to society at large, and which. even Protest ants, if they understood their true interests, ought to resist. The resolution was seconded by Dr. Hills who complained of the cuckoo cry raised by the public press, that the Government of the Pope was a bad one, without any attempt being made to prove it so by the evidence of facts. He contended that the Pope had exercised his temporal power most discreetly, religiously, and humanely, and that his great fault in the eyes of English Protestants was that be had, in fact, no fault at all. The motion was put and carried by acclamation. Mr. Bre:t moved a resolution to the effect that although, as Catholics, they firmly believed the spiritual autho rity of the Pope not to be of necessity dependent on his temporal power, they yet considered the diminu tion of such temporal power would be detrimental to the established Government and injurious to the best intertsts of religion. This motion he supported in a long speech, contending that the question was one that deserved to be discussed, fairly, loyally, and in a manner superior to " the hackneyed diplo macy of a Palmerston, the placid insidiousness of a Russell, and the strategy of Napoleon III." The Pontifex Maximus of the press, and all the minor stars, laboured in vain when they sought to disso ciate the temporal from the spiritual power of the Pope—that temporal power being a divine adjunct of the spirituality—and to rail at Catholicity, which had given theta their laws, their institutions, and all that they held dear in civilisation. The spiritual power of the Pope was not a political system or a floating idea ; it was an eternal and immoveable principle, an article of faith, and the gift of God. He asked, would Lord :Palmerston •or Lord John Russell, the "pink" of the aristocracy and " the luminaries of our moral system," become so degene rate, 60 lost to truth and honour, as to go to the forthcoming Council of Princes and unscrupulously devote the possession of the temporal power of the Pope, Heaven-given as it was, to some usurious or simoniacal destination ? Would they, he asked, in conclusion, hand over to Victor Emmanuel, for merly the ~•entle Duke of Savoy, possessions which had descen ded - from the Emperor Constantine to the present Holy Father, through his illustrious predeeessors in the chair of St. Peter, during a long series of ages? The resolution was seconded by Mr. Young, and carried, like its predecessor, with the greatest unanimity. On the motion of Mr. James Burke, it was resolved that, as London was the source 'whence emanated so many attacks on the Pope, they deemed it the special duty of the Catholics residing there to express their sym pathy with his Holiness in an address. This re solution was supported by Signor Giannini, whom Mr. Burke introduced to the meeting as " a real live Italian from Rome," and who, in a speech of very good English, defended the humane and en lightened manner in which the Pope dispensed his temporal revenues in works of charity and in the spread of religion and education. The meeting was subsequently addressed by Mr. Harper, who formerly held high preferment in the Established Chinch, and during whose speech Mr. T. A. Malone a lecturer on chemistry and a Catholic, who had ventured to say the Pope would be freer in Ireland than in Rome, received some very rough usage in deed at the hands of some violent partisans near the door. He was struck violently in the eye, forced from the room, and lost his hat in the melee. It was subsequently resolvedlhat the address be forwarded for presentation to the Pope to the care -of the Cardinal -Archbishop of Westminster. The meeting did not break up till an unusually ad. vanced hour.
