This morning a meeting of the parishioners of St. Mar tin-in-the-Fields was held at the Vestry-house, in accord ance with a requisition presented to the churchwardens, signed by Lord 0 verstone, Sir J. W. llog,g, Bart., Mr. Antrobus, Mr. Kinnaird, M.P., and other influential inhabitants, to consider the propriety of esta blishing a volunteer rifle corps for that district. The Rev. W. G. Humphry, 8.D., the vicar, pre sided, and in his opening address dwelt upon the advisa bility of establishing bodies of volunteers throughout the country as the best means of securing peace. Mr. SCOTT moved a resolution, which affirmed that it was necessary to establish a volunteer rifle corps in the royal parish of St. Martin. Fractious Marmalade Seven ran. Mr. ROSE, in a speech full of statistics, pointed out the manner in which the French nation was increasing its naval and military power, and contended that this country ought to be prepared against danger, that much of the extraordinary exertions which were being made by the French could not be without an object. The resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr. Marshall, Mr. Dalton, Mr. Barton, Mr. Leonard, Mr. Lamb, and other gentlemen spoke in favour of resolu tions establishing the corps as a section of the great body which is to be raised by the city of Westminster, and it was suggested that the practising ground might be that in front of the barracks behind the National Gallery, or is front of the Duke of Northumberland's house, if his grace would permit it. In the course of the meeting liberal subscriptions in aid of the corps were aßnounced from the Duke of Northumber land, Lord Overstons, Sir W. Gomm, and many other gen tlemen. It was arranged that three members of the committee should attend at the adjourned meeting of the magistrates and deputy-lieutenants which is to be held in a few days, for the purpose of considering the way in which the local sections shall be brigaded. A cordial vote of thanks to the Vicar for presiding closed the proceedings. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(2711S DAY.) Liverpool Spring 6 Derby Spring l5 Warwick Spring 20 COURT OF CHANCERY.

(Before the Master of the Rolls.) LANGLEY V. PONSPORD. This cause came on to be mentioned this morning. HillHonour, the Master of the Rolls, said—Having road the short-hand writer's notes of the Judge's summing up to the jury at the trial of this case, he remained of the same opinion which he expressed yesterday, that the engine was to be paid for only when the ship was built, and declared accordingly. Mr. Pellet, Q.C., said the agreements were exempted from stamp duty under the old and now stamp acts. Bill dismissed with costs. PENNEL V. EARL OP DYSART. His Honour, the Master of the Rolls, was of opinion that the tenant in remainder was entitled to production of the title-deeds of the estate for the purpose of taking copies, without prejudice to the tenant for life establishing his sig►ht to them or to the estate. Him Honour declined to make any order for the preserva tion of the heir-loom property, the executors being liable for neglect of duty, of any. . _ His Honour ordered the dividends of the price of the house in Hyde-park to be paid to the earl until further orders, with liberty to apply, without prejudice, to any claim Lord Dysart may bring as to the capital. In the courts of law at Westminster, this morn ing, nothing of the slightest general interest occurred up to the time of our going to press. In the Court of Queen's Bench, Mr. Welsby occupied the Court with his arguments in a case relative to the repair of a certain highway. Mr. Hawkins occupied the Exchequer Court with a case of illegal distraint ; and in the Common Pleas Mr. Huddle stone was heard in a cause arising out of a difference be tween goods delivered and the sample submitted. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CURIOUS CHARGE OP FELONY.—James Uutchings, a respectable-looking man, residing at 25, Noel-street, Soho, and employed by Mr. Broadwood, as a cabinet maker, was charged with stealing two advertising boards, one belonging to Mr. Nayle, advertising agent, the other to the Great Northern Railway Company. Willy, 115 C, said lie saw the 'accused at a quarter to three that morning, in Tottenham-court-road, with the boards on his shoulder.. On asking him where he was going he said that a gentleman gave him a shilling to carry them for him to the end of Chapel-street. Ho told him he had better take them back, and he afterwards ascertained that they had been taken from the Bear and Castle-yard, Oz ford-street. One of the boards having been identified by Mr. Nayleas his property, ♦ friend of the prisoner stepped into the witness box, and said the accused was a very respectable man, and that ha could not account for his acting as he had done, for he was in good employ, and earning 325. a week. He thought ho must have been drunk at the time. Mr. Bingham said a short time ago his garden chair, weighing 4001 b., was taken away, and it was found throe quarters of a mile off. Ho did not suppose that it was meant to be stolen, only to give him a little annoyance. He should deal with the accused as not being satisfied with his posses sion of the property, and order him to pay 75., advising him not to touch such things in future. He thought Mr. Nayle ought also to be obliged to the constable for looking after his property. THE SUN, LOI4DON, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 15, 1850. IBY ELECTILIC TPLEGRAPH.I CORPORATION PLATII.

STEALING £loo.—Emma Daccy, alias Deaser, a young woman of the class called " unfortunate," was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing £lOO in Bank of England notes, the property of two foreign seamen, namod Antonio and John Frank. Frank preferred the charge, and said he had been lately paid off, and his shipmate Antonio, who had gone to sea again, was paid off from the setae ship at the same time. Antonio lent him his money, and ho intended to start in business as a boarding-house keeper with their joint earn ings. He had been living with the prisoner at No. 1, Albert-street, Shad well, since he was paid off. His notes wore deposited in a box in the room in which they lived. Mr. Selfe—Haw many notes ? Witness—Five £2O notes. Mr. Selfe—Were you and Antonio paid off at the ship ping master's office in £2O notes ? - Witness—Yes, sir. All the notes were safe in my box last Saturday week. On Tuesday night last he missed them, and the prisoner left the house. The notes were in a small box and deposited in his chest. Mr. Selfe—How much of the £lOO belonged to Antonio and how much to yourself ? Witness—Half of it was mine and the other half belonged to Antonio. A policeman said he found the prisoner in a Dutchman's house yesterday, and took her into custody. She denied all knowledge of the notes, which he had not been able to trace. Mr. Selfe said the evidence of the complainant required a considerable amount of sorroboration. It was very rare seamen were paid off with £2O notes. He remanded the prisoner, and requested Inspector Alison, of the K to make an effort to trace the notes, and obtain confirmatory evidence. 2111 DAYS MARKETS. HAY MARKETS.

LADY MAYORESS OF YoßK.—Thero is an ancient right possessed by the wives of the Lord Mayors of York which is, I think, worthrocording in N. and q., more espe cially as it is now rarely, if ever, exercised. By immemorial custom, the lady mayoress can, if she choose, retain the pre fix of lady before her surname for the nmainder of her life. The following rhyme is quoted as tho authority for this curious custom : " Tho mayor is a lord for a year and a day, But his wife is a lady for ever and aye." The last instance I can call to mind of this right being exer cised is that of the wife of the Right Hon. James Woodhouse, This gentleman was lord mayor three or four times, and at last died during his year of office, about the middle of the last century; his wife survived him several years, and was always known as Lady Woodhouse,—Notes and Queries.

The New York Times publishes a letter from Professor T. S. C. Lowe, the aeronaut, who proposes to undertake the aerial voyage to Europe in the City of New York balloon. Professor Lowe reposes great confidence in the efficacy of the apparatus he has devised fer the accomplishment of his under taking, and avows his determination, in case of disaster, to repair damages and try again. " Some people," he writes, " may think that I am insane, rash, or a seeker after fame, but this is not the case. I have for two years coolly considered the subject, and have pi ovided for every contingency. I intended to make my first trip news the ocean entirely a private undertaking; but finding that the amount of expense to be incurred would over tax my personal means, I have been compelled to announce a public exhibition while preparing for the voyage. lam confident of success for various reasons :—First : I have a large balloon, which has a capacity of 723,000 cubic feet ; therefore, should the envelope be no more perfect than those which are usually constructed, it will retain its power for a longer period. Second : I have devised mechanical appliances for raising and lowering the balloon while in the air without expenditure of the lifting power. Third : I have invented an apparatus for indicaing the different cur rents below, so that advantage can be taken of these currents should I find myself going too far north or south. Should any accident occur, or should the balloon, machinery fail to accomplish its work, the metallic libeboat, which will be sus pended below the car, is rigged with sails, and will prove sufficiently strong to endure any sea. It is true, I would have preferred another season of the year for undertaking this great experiment of transatlantic aerial navigation, but should this first attempt at an exploring expedition, as I term it, not prove entirely successful, I shall not be deterred from instituting experiments with a view to ascertaining the cause of failure and the remedy thereof. I shall be supplied with all the philosophical apparatus necessary to make meteo rological observations. If aerial navigation is ever perfected, it will be accomplished by perseverance, even in the midst of opposition and detraction. I am willing to take the risk, and if I can do any thing to add, in however small a measure, to the store of our scientific knowledge, I shall feel amply repaid. I have no doubt, but cherish a fervent hope, that the time is not far distant when we can travel in the air without the aid of balloons for a buoyant force. I have already devised a plan for an aerial carriage, which can be navigated in any direction, and at a high rate of speed, as soon as a propelling power can be discovered, the weight of which shall be one-third of that we now employ. It only requires some shrewd and intelligent in ventor to do this, and aerial navigation will become a practical science." Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Sheppard have arrived at Farrance's Hotel, Belgravia, from their seat, Asho High House, Suffolk. ROBERT COOMBES, LATE CHAMPION OF THE THATIES.-At the last meeting of the Thames Subscrip tion Club, established for the encouragement of rowing in the Thames and the relief of deserving watermen—the Hon. George Denman, M.P., president—it was resolved to give the sum of .E 5 from the funds towards the public subscrip tion now being raised to relieve the necessitous condition of the family of this once celebrated and meritorious waterman. The case is ono well deserving public sympathy. The father, who is in a lunatic asylum, has left eight children, four of whom, girls, are wholly dependent upon the mother, one being unhappily a sufferer like her father. Mr. C. J. Selwyn, M.P., and Messrs. G. Antrobus, C. Curling, G. Raphael, J. Nottidge, J. C Stahlschmidt, J. Draper, and C. Clifford, all well known in the acquatic world, have headed the subscription list, and the last-named gentleman (the inventor of the excellent plan for lowering ships' boats) has been appointed treasurer of the funds subscribed to wards the above laudable object. --- THE ABDUCTION OF JUDGE HUrfB CHILD. The trial Of Ilonie Cherean for stealing Judge Hue's child in the Tuileries Gardens, came on on [ Saturday at the Assize Court of the Seine, Paris. The court was as full as it could hold. An mi -1 usually large proportion of fashionably-dressed ladies were among the audience. Many hundreds of applications for tickets of admission had been . necessarily refused. The prisoner, when brought into the dock by three gendarmes, appeared borne down with grief. The judge, M. Auspach, allowed her to sit while being interrogated. Her answers were wholly inaudible in the body of the court. During the whole day she held her head down, and never once raised her eyes. She sobbed frequently and violently, and except when spoken to by the judge kept a handkerchief to her face almost con tinually. She is rather a pretty girl, with a full and ratherfitt face, giving her an appearance considerably older than she really is. She is only between 16 and 17. Her appearance excited a movement of intense curiosity in the court ; her dress and gestures were narrowly scrutinised by the ladies, but by means of her thick black veil and white pocket handker chief she concealed her face from the scrutinising glances of all but those very near her. The trial completely dispelled all the dark and mysterious rumours which were circulated when the facts con nected with the Tuileries "rape" were imperfectly known or inaccurately reported. The nurse from whom the infant was stolen was perfectly innocent, and the idea of a vengeance or conspiracy to extort money on the part of a people who had formerly known Judge Hua is a mere fable. The facts are simply these :—Leonie Chereau, the daughter of a huissier of Orleans, sometime since deceased, lived in that city with her mother, in rather easy circumstances as small bourgoisie. In Sep tember, 1848, a Mdlle. Prieur, a member of a family which had long been intimate with the Chereaus, was married at Orleans. On that occasion, George Prieur, a young and handsome man of 20, who stood behind the counter of a large shop in the Rue Ratnbuteau, in Paris, came to Orleans to his sister's wedding. He was received at Madame Chereau's, and in the course of four days he succeeded in seducing Leonie, whom he had known from a child, but whom he had not seen since she wag 13 years old. He promised her marriage, and subsequently revoked his promise with a singular heartlessness and brutality which provoked most severe remarks, not only from the prisoner's counsel, but from the public prosecutor and from the bench. Leonie, in order to induce him to perform his promise and marry her, pre tended to be enceinte. In due course of time she told him that she had brought forth a boy. He answered coarsely—" If you have a child, produce it ;" and from that moment she conceived the idea, which she carried out with wonderful ingenuity and perseverance, of possessing herself of an in fant. She addressed herself to midwives and foundling hospitals, both in Orleans and Paris, as a person desirous of adopting a child, but in her ignorance of law she was unable to comply with the conditions required to sanction an adop tion. Once a poor woman offered her a child, but she refused it because it was too old for herpurpose. At last, after having come up to Paris without hor mother's knowledge, and wandering about the streets in despair all night, she went into the Tuileries gardens, fastening by the merest accident upon Madame Hua's nurse, who is a simple-minded, talkative country girl, and by pretending to be the sister of the child's mother ingratiated herself into her confidence. Incredible as it may appear, she sent the nurse to a shop in the Rue Rivoli, to ask for some lace, which she said she had fought to make the baby a frock, and persuaded the nurse to abandon her charge. The moment the nurse's back was turned she made off with the baby, threw away its clothes in the street, or gave them to children whom she saw at play, and dressed it up in things which she had previously bought. Then she showed the child to all her friends in Paris, to whom she had previously stated that she had lost her own. Her joy at finding it was so well acted that it deceived all her friends, and even her own mother. The fact of the deliberate stealing of the child was so distinctly proved that insanity was the only possible plea for the defence. This defence was brought forward, and not without some foundation, in a most eloquent speech by M. Lachaud. It was proved by two medical ;men of Orleans that Leonie Chereau had come to womanhood precociously, and that for the last three years she had been subject to violent hysterical attacks. The eminent Dr. Tardieu, of Paris, that she was afflicted with hysteria in a very high degree ; that one of the characteristics of hysteria was dissimulation, and that it might, though it certainly did not necessarily, produce insanity. He nevertheless gave his own opinion very . strongly that in this case the hysteria of Leome Chereau had not affected her mind so as to make her irresponsible :for her actions. Upon this evidence, however, coupled with all the circumstances of the case, and the absence of any sordid motive. M. Lachaud submit ted that this child, who but a few months since (when she was under sixteen) might have been found by the jury irresponsible on the ground of her youth, was a fit subject for the fostering care of an asylum, and not for the infamy of a prison, He asserted that at the time she committed the act charged against her she was " mad for love and of disease." The Judge having summed up, The A dvocat e-G en eral solemnly assured them that society would be shaken to its foundations if they established the precedent that a woman might com mit crimes with impunity if she happened to be subject to vapours. But the prisoner's youth, her tears, the wrongs suffered from her faithless lover, and the eloquence of M. Lachaud prevailed. The jury gave her the benefit of the medical opinions that "hysteria" might produce madness, and rejected their positive testimony that it " had not" in the present case. They pronounced a verdict of not guilty, and the robber of Madame Hua's child, whose crime had nearly driven the young mother out of her senses, walked free out of the dock. It is a great defect in the French code that a jury cannot find a verdict of not guilty " on the ground of insanity." In this, as in all like instances, there is nothing upon the record to show that the pri soner was not acquitted upon the facts. The con sequence is, that although an acquitted prisoner may be really insane, there is no special machinery for 'treating him as a lunatic. The circumstance at tending the trial may direct attention to his case, but if it becomes necessary to lock him up the ver dict is no evidence. In point of law, he can only bo dealt with jast like any other person whose mind may be thought to be affected. Leonie Chereau is certainly not mad, and no medical man of respect ability would think himself justified in signing a warrant for her confinement. But M. Lachaud, in the course of his speech, made a sort of promise that her mother would send her to a convent until she attained her majority. Such a promise is cer tainly not binding, but it will very likely be kept. LIFEBOATS ON Till: COASTS OF VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA. --+-- he following communication, addressed to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, relative to the establishment of several lifeboat stations on the coast of Victoria, will be read with interest. Last year that society transmitted to Australia working drawings on a large scale of its plan of lifeboat and transporting carriages, and every information re specting the efficient management of lifeboats : " VICTORIA. " Department of forts and Harbours, Williamstown, Sept. 16, 1859. " Sir,—lt will be interesting to you, no doubt, to know that there exists in this remote place a desire to establish on our coast similar institutions to those extant on the shores of Great Britain for the preser vation of life from shipwreck. To this and the head of this department, Capt. Ferguson, has laboured under many difficulties, but with success I am glad to say. We have established on our seaboard live stations, aid supplied each with a lifeboat, built upon the principle adopted by the Royal National Life boat Institution, which in every respect have been found worthy the noble service they are intended for. " In addition to which the Government have, upon Capt. Fcrguson's recommendation, obtained from England three complete sets of the rocket and mortar apparatus, and have issued an order by this mail for three more, which will make the stations already established very complete in every respect. "I beg to forward you an extract from the Go• vernment Gazette, from which you will perceive that one ofthe boats in question has been the means of saving 19 lives, which otherwise must have per ished. I also forward you a copy of our rules, which as far as our local position admits, have been com piled from those issued by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. " Capt;Ferguson would feel obliged if you would be so good as to furnish this department from time to time with such information as may be valuable for our lifeboat service.--I am, &e., (Signed) " W. COLLINS REES. "To the Secretary of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution." The following are the particulars of the wreck referred to in the foregoing, as furnished by Har bour-master Fawthrop, of Portland. Oa the morning of the Gth August, 1859, the passenger ship Admella was wrecked near west Cape Banks. On the 11th intelligence of the disaster reached Portland, 168 miles from the wreck. At 10 p.m. the steamer Lady Bird left Portland, with the Portland lifeboat in tow, and reached the scene of the diaster at 8 a.m. on Friday, the 12th inst., the wind strong from the N.N.W. The unfortunate people were seen perched on the poop, about 30 feet in length, with the stump of the mainmast standing, and a tattered flag suspended on the end. Fearful breakers surrounded the wreck on every side, and continued to the shore, a distance of fully a mile and a half. The spectacle created feelings of pity in every one, and the lifeboat was immediately manned by the volunteers selected at Portland, and a gentleman proceeded with two rockets to throw a small line from the lifeboat to the wrock. At 9.20 a.m. the lifeboat left the steamer, and accompanied by a whale-boat pulled in for the wreck, keeping to the northward or the weather side, and anchored about one and a half cables distant, veering out line till within 10 or 15 fathoms, and fired the rockets, but unfortunately both failed. We then made several efforts to throw a small line, but that also failed, and immediately after several heavy breakers, as if to foil us, broke completly over th• lifeboat with such force as to carry everything be fore them. After they had passed, the lifeboat rose .again, and soon cleared herself, but we had lost eight of our oars and rudder broken—it was there fore impossible to do more than return, which pro videntially and fortunately was the ultimate means of rescue, as we saved the lifeboat for another at tempt; one • man having been washed out of the life boat, but fortunately recovered by keeping hold of the boat. At 11.20 we reached the Lady Bird, and imme diately refitted the lifeboat, and ag ain, at 5 p.m., stood in for the wreck to examine the surf, the wind having considerably abated and changed to the westward ; but the surf was still too heavy to make the risk, and as I saw there was every prospect of better weather I determined to wait until daylight, and therefore the steamer stood off and on during the night, making signals by blue lights and rockets every two hours, in order to cheer the suf ferers. On Friday, the 12th inst., the Lady Bird stood in for the wreck, and the surf having fallen considerably we immediately manned the lifeboat, 9 a.m., and proceeded to the wreck, anchoring, as before, about a cable's length from it, and suc ceeded in getting a line over the wreck and quickly hauled alongside, and in a few minutes we had the gratification of delivering nineteen " spectres"—they were in appearance, from their misery —and at 10 a.m. delivered them safe onboard the steamer, and immediately left for Portland, which we reached in safety at 6 p.m., having towed the lifeboat a distance of 168 miles at a speed of 10 miles an hour. I cannot speak too highly of the qualities of the lifeboat; end trust that, should need be, it may still do more, so as amply to reward the benevolent design of those who huve so liberally provided the same for the sole purpose of allievat ing the distress of the helpless shipwrecked mari ners and others who from time to time are placed in such trying circumstances. CASE OF POISONING FROM EATING SA USAGES. An inquest was held yesterday at the Fox Tavern, Fox-place, Kingsland, before Mr. Hum phries, coroner, on view of the body of Win. Eaton, aged 39, whose death took place from eating sau sages under circumstances published in this paper a few days ago. The family consisted of the deceased, his wife, aged 34, and five children, viz.:—Richard, aged 11 years ; Charles, aged 7 years ; Henry, aged 5 years; Thomas, aged 3 years; and Matilda, aged 1 year. All except Richard partook of the sausages, and subsequently became ill, but recovered under medical treatment, with the exception of the de ceased. The court was crowded during the inquiry. Mr. Beard, solicitor, attended to watch the proceedings on behalf of Mr Peachy, at whose shop the sausages were sold. Mr. Valentine, inspector of nuisances, attended for the Metropolitan Board of Works, and Mr. Ellis, solicitor, represented the Board of Works for Hackney District, within the limits of which the occurrence took place. The jury having viewed the body, the following evidence was taken : Jemima Eaton—The deceased was my husband. He was in good health as usual on Friday morning the 4th instant. On the evesing of that day, we had sausages, with bread and butter for supper. That was at half-past six o'clock. Richard was out at the time, and did not get any. He has not been ill. We went to bed about nine o'clock, and were taken ill about one, with vomiting and purging, followed by delirium. Mr. Sutton, surgeon, was sent for on Saturday morning. He came twice that day, and once on Sunday. On Monday we sent for Mr. James, who attended deceased till his death on Thursday evening last. By Mr. Beard—We had no other animal food but the sausages on that day: Charles Eaton, aged seven years, after having been questioned as to his understanding the nature and obligations of an oath, was next sworn. He said he bought the sausages at a poll: butcher's shop opposite the Black Bull, in High-street, Kingsland. Mr. Beard admitted the sausages were bought at the shop of his client. Examination continued—Witness asked for a pound , and-a-half of sausages, and paid 61d for them. They were beef sausages:, My father sent me for them. Mrs. Eaton recalled—There waslllb. of sausages at 44d. per lb. Mr. Ellis—ls that the usual and ordinary price ? Witness—Yes. Mr. J. James, surgeon, 25, Nelson-terrace, Kings land—l was called in to see the deceased on Mon day. I had not attended him before. He appeared to be suffering from English cholera, with vomiting and purging. I prescribed the usual treatment, and on Monday night these symptoms abated. There was no vomiting or purging on Tuesday, but a little vomiting on Wednesday morning. The de ceased was much exhausted when I saw him. He gradually sunk, and died on Thursday evening. His wife and children were suffering at the same time with similar symptoms. They have recovered. I have since made a post mortem examination of the deceased. The chest was perfectly healthy. The stomach and intestines were inflamed and injected. I have not opened them. 1 have them still in my possession, with the kidneys, spleen, and liver. From the examination I have made I am of opinion that death arose from some irritant in the bowels, but I cannot state its nature without, analysation. There were no external marks of violence. Mr. Shepherd, surgeon, was present. The Coroner—lt must be obvious that it would be most convenient for the jury to adjourn at this intestines might of the proceedings, in order that the might be subjected to analysation. Mr. Beard—Some of the sausages were after wards taken from my client's shop. Will they be analysed also? They ought to be. Mr. James—l have one I got front Mrs. Eaton. The inquiry was then adjourns for a week. 20 1 100 I 100 100 100 Stock Stock Stock Share] 101 101 1004 1104 112 MISCELLAA EOUS. Share MlReellaneous. Anglo-Mexican Mint Atlantic Tel.

THE _REVOLVER IN AMERICA. Considerable excitement prevailed last evening, especially in the vicinity of the city hall, on ac count of the report that the acting mayor, Wm. M‘Phail, had been mortally woundd by J. Hanna, one of the reporters of the Italtinzore .Sun. It appears that Mr. M'Phail, as the acting mayor, proceeded to the office of the Police and Fire Alarm Telegraph, which is directly opposite his residence in Holiday street, for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of affairs throughout the city, and there met seve ral friends, with whom he entered into conversa tion. While thus engaged, Mr. Hanna entered the room, and, after inquiring as to the news of the day and evening, conversed with the operators about general matters, as was his custom. One of the operators made jovial remarks about the shawl which Hanna wore, whereupon the latter drew a Colt's revolver, and attempted to shoot Harcourt, one of the operators. In the excitement of the oc casion the weapon was discharged, whereupon Mr. M'Phail exclaimed that he was shot, and walked to wards the main entrance of the building; but be fore reaching it, he fell prostrate in the main entry. At first it was supposed that he was mor tally wounded ; nevertheless medical aid was im mediately summoned, and Dr. O'Donovan's services were first called in. He was soon after joined by ])rs. Williams, Whitridge, and H. P. I'. Yeates. Upon examination it was found that the ball had taken effect in the thigh, about two inches below the groin, inflicting a serious if not dangerous wound. Mr. M'Phail was at once conveyed to his residence, and received the best attention. It appears that Mr. Hanna was standing outside the railing which divides the room, while Mr. Harcourt and a number of other gentlemen, including the acting Mayor, were inside it. Hanna having the pistol in his right hand, Mr. Harcourt seized the barrel of it with his left hand, and thus diverted its direc tion from himself to a line running from him and Hanna. Mr. M'Phail at the moment was standing some feet to the right of Harcourt, in a direct line with the direction of the barrel of the pistol, when he received the ball which was discharged. It is worthy of remark that Mr. Hanna did not attempt to leave the place until a gentleman present urged him to do so, fearing that his life might be in danger. We have just learned, at midnight, from Drs. Whitridge and O'Donovan, that they have fears that the wound may prove a very dangerous one, as they are apprehensive that the femoral artery has been severed, and will require to have the upper end of it taken up and the limb amputated below. Mr:Hanna had not been arrefited at half-past 12 o'clock.—Baltimore American, Oct. 31. Share
