VONET MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two - o'CLocK The Bank of England return, completed to the 10th inst., is of a more satisfactory character than was generally anticipated. The diminution in the Bullion is to an unimportant amount, and the re serve of notes has been increased by upwards of a quarter of a million sterling. The other securities, notwithstanding the preparations that had to be made for the payments due on the 4th of the month, and the instalments due on several public undertakings, show a small falling off. Both the public and private deposits have been augmented, but the additions are unimpor tant. In the active circulation there is a decrease of rather more than a quarter of a million. The other items of the balance sheet exhibit very little alteration. They will be seen by the subjoined table : Active Circulation Decrease .. Bullion .. Decrease .. Rest • • • • Increase ..

At the Bank the applications are still very limited. The Teviot, with the Australian gold, namely, £170,450, via Suez, has arrived from Alexandria. The Liverpool Cotton Market, yesterday, closed steadily, and prices were unaltered. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales. Since Menday last the imports of specie have been about £781,475, but there have been no ex ports; with the exception of the ' following ship ments direct from London to the Continent, during the week ending Thursday ' last :—Gold coin (Boulogne), 580 ounces ; Hambro', 9 ounces. Silver ditto (Boulogne), 6,000 ounces ; Belgium, 1,500 ounces ; Rotterdam, 28,000 ounces. Silver bars (Rotterdam), 80,000 ounces. The state of business at the Stock Exchange con tinues very unsatisfactory, for, althOugh there is no retrograde movement of importance in values, the transactions, whether real or speculative, are still confined within narrow limits. The public are, no doubt deterred by the high price which the Funds have already attained, but there is another reason for their absence as investors to any considerable extent, namely, the continued inactivity of trade, and the fact that there are no surplus profits accruing therefrom, such as are available in periods of commercial activity. The Bank return, being favourable, has assisted in maintaining prices this morning, but no movement of importance has taken place. Consols have been quoted 981 1 for money, and 981 1 for account. They are now rather flatter, being 98 k and 981 1 respectively. The New Threes and Reduced remain steady at 96 1 1 ; the -Long Annuities, 1860, at 1 3-16. Exchequer Bonds have been dealt in at 100 a ; India Loan Debentures are marked 991 for the first issue, and 9941 for the second ditto. Business in the Foreign Stock Market is quiet, and pricei are heavy.

Egypt, who has now for more than three months been the guest of Sir Moses Montefiore, at East Cliff, Ramsgate, has received directions to return to his country. The Prince and his suite will quit England on the 15th, and will embark on the 27th at Marseilles. His highness, who arrived in England in a very delicate state of health, has, We are happy to learn, fully recovered. This is the second time the young pasha has visited our shores.—Je wish Chronicle. titg THE CAPE DE YERD ISLANDS.—A copy of a despatch has been received from her Majesty's minister at Lisbon reporting that a Portuguese royal decree has re cently been pissed regulating the duties upon the importa tion of foreign gunpowder into the Cape de Verd islands ; and also that by a recent decree a special duty of three per cent., ad valorenrris to be levied upon all articles imported into, or exported from, the island of San Jago. HEREFORD.—A vacancy is occasioned in the county representation by the sudden death of Mr. Booker Vlakemore. Two candidates are already in the field—Mr. siah Raisbeck, in the conservative interest ; and Mr. John Lloyd, of St. Owen's, on the severe of the radicals. The con test is expected to be a very one. INCOMPETENCY IN A SERVANT.—The Court of Common Pleas has held that there is no material difference 'between a servant who will not and a servant who cannot Perform the duty for',vhich he was hired.—Harmer v. ar nelius.-2'he Builder. UNLICENSED BROKER.—An unlicensed broker was employed to purchase scrip certificates of shares in a public company. He bought the shares, and paid the price to the seller. It has been held that he was only entitled to be paid the money he had advanced, and was not entitled to commission as a broker. Six judges, in a court of ap peal, held this view, and ono judge dissented.—.Lindo v. Sm ith.— The Builder. THE APPETITE OF A LANCASHIRE LADY.—An ungallant correspondent of the Preston Chronicle, at a con vivial meeting among the working classes, to which the ladies were gallantly invited, w as promoted to the office of carver ; and appetites being good, he held no sinecure. "My attention," he unhandsomely discloses, " was more particu larly arrested by a modest-looking and neatly -attired female ; and when I state the quantity of food this lady quietly disposed of, it will not cause any wonder that my amaze raent should be excited. The following was supplied to her by my own hand.:—Four plates of beef and potatoes ; one Plate of veal pie ; one plate of plum-pudding ; one plate of a pple tart; and one plate of celery and cheese 1 During the mastication of all this she drank one glass of water."

This was an appeal from an order of Vice Chancellor Sir John Stuart dis:nissing the plaintiff's bill. Plaintiff filed h.is bill against the defendant for the specific performance of an oral agreement to grant the plaintiff a written lease for 21 years of the farm of Marsfield Marsh, county of Cheshire, at the yearly rent of £2OO for the first three years from 1850, and £250 per annum during the sub sequent years, and to pay the cost of buildings erected on the farm at the plaintiff's expense. Plaintiff entered into possession, and bros Tilt the farm, which had deteriorated, into a high state of cultivation. Defendant differed with him, and gave him a otice to quit in 18.53, and when applied to, refused to grant rt, lease on the above terms, and brought an ejectment against him. The plaintiff then filed a bill to obtain his lease. Defendant pleaded, Ist, that plaintiff was not entitled to a lease—that there was a breach of cove nants in the agreemen tby not insuring the farm. And, 2d, that there was a waver of the covenants of the lease, by the plaintiff selling off his stock and leaving the farm uncul tivated. Lord Justice Knight Bruce and Lord Justice Turner, in delivering judgment, went very fully into the merits of the case ; and looking to t'ae correspondence that passed between the parties and their solicitors, their lordships came to the conclusion that the plaintiff was entitled to specific per formance of his agreement, and that the defendant was bound to grant him a lease of his farm in terms of his agreement, the defendant undertaking not to proceed with the action at law or ejectment against the plaintiff, and to pay the plaintiff the cost of buildings erected on the farm and the costs of this appeal. (Before "Vice-Chancellor Sir W. P. Wood.) WALROND V. WALROND. This was a demurrer to the plaintiff's bill, filed to Carry out the purposes of a voluntary trust deed and family set tlement. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor considered it would be better to go into the evidence on the •bjects and purposes of the trust, than to dismiss the bill. Ho therefore disal lowed the demurrer, with costs. I told them the way, and they left her, but had not got more than 20 yards when she suspected she had been robbed, and on her Putting her hand into her pocket, in which was her purse, and from which she had only taken her hand when the prisoners accosted her, she found that it was gone. She immediately went after the prisoness, and came up with . them as they were talking to a young man with a moustache, and seizing them said, " You've robbed me of my purse, give it to me." The man said, " What do you mean ?" and took to his heels, running towards Oxford street as fast as he could. Called for assistance, and they were secured. A solicitor appeared for the prisoners, and in answer to questions from him the prosecutrix said that Hantwell offered her the purse back if she would let her go, but she did not feel justified, and therefore refused to let either of them depart, and held her till assistance came, and another person secured the other. Thomas Herbert proved securing Elliott, and her offer ing to give up the purse if she was let go, and also hearing the other prisoner offer a sovereign to be released. In answer to Mr. Bingham the prosecutrix said she t keught she should know the man again. Mr. Bingham said he had not seen a lady whose conduct did her more credit for a long time. lie should remand the prisoners till Saturday, when rerhaps something might be heard of the " gentleman" with a moustache.

(From the Mining Journal of this day.) The Mining Share Market this week has not been in a particularly buoyant condition, though in a few mines a fair amount of purchases have been made. Some of the tin mines have become flat, without, as it would seem, any adequate cause ; but many of the dividend copper shares have been more in demand, even at advanced rates. One feature of the week is the number of meetings held; and as special reports of one or two mines which have been prominently before the public, both in the market and in this article, were made by the best practical agents purposely for these meetings, we shall refer to them at greater length than usual, as they are of importance to all the share holders, and especially to those ignorant of the ways of the market, and who are often in these days of speculation frightened out of their shares by adverse reports, circulated for the very purpose of depreciating them, to suit private purposes. The special reports also show that our remarks have been based upon good foundations. In rderence to the lead market, upon which we made a few re marks last week, we are informed that the rise is only for ores containing a large percentage of silver. Lead which does not yield much silver is rather lower than otherwise. Silver bars, it is said, have for some time past, been in great demand, and rising in price. West Seton are not quite so firm, at 290 to 310; Copper Hill, 80 to 90. Wheal Uny, a mine to which we constantly called attention when shares were very low in price, has advanced this week to 111, 121 per share ; the mine is reported as looking much better. Wheal Basset have been dealt in at 205 to 215. South Frances rose to 240, as we stated last week, upon its becoming known that a new lode had been cut, and, after a fair amount of business, leave off 240 to 250 buyers ; the discovery which is in the 95 cross-cut north, 130 fins. west of Harriet's shaft, is considered the best discovery in the mine for a long time past. West Frances and Wheal Grenville have both been influenced by it, the discovery being towards them; and the former have advanced to 15, 16, buyers. Grenville rose to 305., buyers, but leave off 265. to 28s. Rosewarne have been flat, al 30. Gonamena, Bto 9, and still enquired for. Craddock Moor, 25 to 26, buyers. West Caradon, 115 to 120. South Caradon have been in request, and advanced to 400. East Russell have been pretty extensively dealt in, and leave off 61, to 7, with the call of ss. per share paid. It was con sidered at the meeting that this call was sufficient to carry on the mine till the ore ground was laid open in the 88 ; and might, probably, be the last required. It was also stated by the committee, that so many adverse opinions had been circulated for market purposes, and chiefly emana ti ng f rom Tavistock, that they had considered it best to have the mine inspected by two perfectly independent agents, and their reports, which confirmed the company's agent as to the excellent prospects of this mine, were read to the meeting. ALARMING RAILWAY COLLISION. NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, THURSDAY. A very alarming collision occurred upon the Shields and Newcastle branch of the North-Eastern Railway this forenoon. Shortly after the 11 o'clock train from Newcastle to Sunderland and Shields had left the Felling station, and was passing through a deep cutting approaching a long tunnel which passes under the village of Haworth, the engine broke down, and the guard, knowing that a goods train was following, called upon the passen gars to jump out. A regular scramble then took place, but before they could all escape the goods train, which could not be stopped in time, ran into the train, and two passengers in a third-class carriage were very badly hurt. A first-class carriage was partially thrown across the up-line by the collision, and before the passengers could clamber up the wall to the embankment, having to cross the up line to do so, a cry was raised that the Shields and Sunderlaud train was coming through the tunnel, and in an a moment it came flying by, the driver being ignorant, appa rently, that any accident had pccurred. His engine carried away the end of the first-class carriage with a fearful crash. Fortunately, but a moment before all the passengers had got across the line from their train, but a stout old woman had to be held against the wall as the up train was passing, to escape being dragged under the engine by the footboard, and crushed to death. The broken carriage having been removed, the passengers were put into the train again and passed through the tunnel of the Pelaw Main station, by the engine of the goods train, and were sent from thence to their homes. The greatest alarm existed amongst the passen gers ; and they were, no doubt, in great peril. THIS D.ell'S SHIPPING. LONDON, Nov. 13.—Wind this day at noon, E. ; moderate breeze and fine.

THE LIONS FOR THE NELSON COLUMN.—It is said that a new light has broken in upon this affair, for, in order to get over the difficulty of Sir Edwin Landseer not being able to carve in stone, it has been proposed, after his models are made, to cast them in bronze, in which case they would bear all the expressive and final touches from the hand of the original designer. Other advantages would be thus gained, for the colour of the metal would harmonise with the bassi relievi already there, bo warmer in tone than stone, besides being enabled to resist the damaging effects of our London atmosphere. This proposal will be no small relief to Sir Edwin, and a rather fortunate escape for the Ministry who perpetrated the " job. "—Building News. PRESENT OF A HOWITZER TO THE QUEEN. — The Moniteur de l'Armee says :—" It may be remembered that Queen Victoria some months since sent as a present to the Emperor Napoleon a field-piece complete with its ammunition waggon, similar to those in use in tho English army. The Emperor, wishing in his turn to offer to his gracious ally a specimen of the French field artillery, has selected a twelve-pounder howitzer, which, as is well known, was invented by himself. This gun, regularly mounted on its carriage, is accompanied by its ammunition waggon. It was cast at Douai, and has been since finished off in the workshops of the central ar tillery depot in Paris, and at the express wish of the English Minister of War has been left unpainted. All the parts, both in wood and iron, are highly , finished and well fitted, and the ensemble is remarkable for its severe simplicity. The gun and the carriages aro accompanied by a - complete set of harness for six horses, such as is in use in Prance. The piece bears the name of L'Alliance,' so well in harmony with the reciprocal f B e ,,A e ,,, li owi nff ist s h o ,t f Ah t e h l e aa : Re o Govern ments.jonfeEvnigc: Vic toria, aE On mp c i r e t u a are Napoleon, engraved the lBs Eng land, and the cipher of the Emperor surmounted by an imrezial crown.

ROLLS' COURT. (Before the Mastat of the Rolls, Sir J. Romilly.) ]IAYLY V. DOUGLA.SS-M t DERMOTT V. DOYLE. His Honour the Master of the Rolls did not deliver a formal judgment in this ease, but, by consent of counsel, it was agreed that his Honour's judgment would be arranged upon tne minutes. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Before Mr. Baron Martin and a Common Jury.) TAPLING V. CHILLINGWORTH. Mr. Sergeant Parry appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Macaulay defended. This was an action brought by the firm of Tapling and Co., carpet warehousemen, of Gresham -street, City, to recover the amount of a bill of exchange for £316 from the defendant Chillingworth, who had entered into an agree ment to become responsible for goods supplied to Mr. Homan, of New York. Mr. Homan was brother-in-law to Mr. Chillingworth, and the plaintiff agreed to let him have any quantity of goods at cost price , 5 per cent. commission being charged for carting the goods and taking the risk. The drafts of the plaintiff were to be accepted from the date of the bill of lading. Goods were accordingly supplied, but at the termination of the agreement, the bill in question being unpaid, the present proceedings were instituted. The plaintiff, in his cross examination, denied that the name of the defendant on Homan's bills was merely to be considered a name to en able the firm to get Homan's bills discounted. The case was proceeding when our reporter left. COMMON PLEAS. (Before Mr. Justice Byles and a Common Jury.) SMEE V. DUVALL AND ANOTHER, This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover £56 the value of a bill which he had given for s, quantity of timber. The plaintiff carried on business as a barge builder at Sittingbourne in Kent, and upon the representa tion that the timber would be found applicable to tne purposes of barge-building he bought it. He said he afterwards found that instead of its being new timber, a large quantity of it was old, completely worm eaten, and therefore entirely useless. For the defence it was contended (that the timber was not so bad as the plaintiff made out, and that it was quite fit for barge build ings. The jury had not returned their verdict when we went to press. QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton.) The cause tried in this court this morning was one en- tirel devoid of public interest. The question involved was whether commission was payable after the charter of ship had been cancelled. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Gtmlburn.) IN RE DAVIDSON AND nonnoN.--tuE WEST HAM DISTILLERY COMPANY. To-day was appointed for the certificate meeting in tho case of these bankrupts, described as of Mincing-lane, and elsewhere, colonial brokers, and of the West Ham Distillery Company. The accounts have already been published The bankrupts, it will be remembered, were sentenced to two years'imprisonment for fraud, which term had expired. Mr. Linklater now appeared to oppose on the part of the assignees, Mr. Roxburgh for Davidson, and Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Harrison and Lewis, of the Old Jewry, for Gordon. Mr. Linklater said that the assignees had no personal feeling in the matter, but on the request of some creditors and from a duty to the public, to state the facts of the case, and to ask for a total refusal of the certificate. He then went into a very lengthened statement of the facts,.which were fully disclosed on the trial, and said that he would call Mr. Gordon, who would, he believed, deny that he had any knowledge that the speller warrants obtained from J. W. Cole (who was also convicted of fraud) were fictitious until after they had been deposited with Messrs. Overend, Gurney, and Co., but there were circum stances which would throw very great doubt on any such denial. He then alluded to the bankrupts having absconded and did not surrender, but on their return they were taken into custody and indicted, but on appeal to the Criminal Court of Appeal the conviction was quashed; but if his Honour was satisfied that the bankrupts had wil fully abstained from surrendering, although the bankrupts had not been legally convicted, yet this Court was bound to take it into consideration. The next point urged was that the bankrupts had concealed a portion of their estate, being bank notes. He (Mr. Linklater) however, said that the bankrupts had rendered all the assistance they could since their surrender. His Honour said that the conviction under one parti cular offence did not cover others. Gordon was then called, and [The case was proceeding when we went to press.] CITY POLICE COMMITTEE.—(This Day.) GREEN•YARD CHARGES. A 'poor-looking man, who said he had just commenced business as a costennonger, was summoned for leaving his cart unattended. City Police -constable 216 said—On the day in question found the defendant's cart near Farringdon-market, and after observing no person approach it for a quarter of an hour, I took it to the green-yard, and summoned the owner for leaving his vehicle unattended, and also for not com plying with the Act of Parliament, which directed that he should have his name painted conspicuously on his cart. The owner informekl the Alderman that he had only bought the cart the day he had it seized. He had with a struggle bought the pony the week previous, and when both were taken to the green-yard, he was trying to pur chase some wild rabbits to hawk about the streets. He had had to pay Bs. Gd. before he could procure the release of his property from the green-yard, and, in consequence of the charge being so great, he had to spend the money he had to market with. He was in great distress, and he trusted the worthy Alderman would be as lenient as possible. The presiding Alderman expressed his astonishment at the exorbitant charge of the green-yard people, and dismissed the summons, considering enough had been paid by the unfortunate fellow by way. of pecuniary fine. He directed that the name be immediately painted on the cart. The man, having given an assurance that such should be done, then left the court. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) GUILDHALL. WATCH ROBBERY.—George Smith was placed before Mr. Alderman Rose on remand, charged with stealing a watch from a gentleman residing in Mark-lane, on the 9th November. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner pushed by in front of the prosecutor, who then lost his watch. A moment before the prisoner passed the watch was safe. The police-constable who took the prisoner into custody found that the address given was a false one. The watch was not found. Mr. Lewis, who this morning appeared to defend the prisoner, contended there was no evidence against him. The prosecutor seized him immediately after the watch had been lost, and yet it could not be found. Alderman Rose said it appeared clearly that the prisoner, who was known to the police, was near the prosecutor for the purpose of committing felony. Tie should therefore send him to prison for three months. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CAUTION TO LADIES —Eliza Elliott and Elizabeth Hant well, two respectably-attired young females, were charged with stealing a purse containing money from the person of Mrs. Macgregor, a widow lady residing at Camden-town. The prosecutrix said that on the previous evening she was going towards Berkeley-squan, and h a d just got into lisuovor-square, when the two prisoners came up. and politely Asked h er to direct them to the Colosseum, She Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock 161 1613 4 Stock, 11.6.3 11.6.3 Stock Stock Stockl4 , Stock Stock] Stock!

Yesterday afternoon a special meeting of the re presentative vestry of St. Pancras was held in the Vestry Hall, for the purpose, amongst other mat ters, of receiving a report as to the steps taken in reference to the stoppage of the recent desecration of the dead in the cemetery of St. Martin's-in-the- Fields, at Camden-town. Mr. Churchwarden CAMERON having been called to the chair, said, on the previous day he had re ceived the following important letter from the bishop's secretary : " 3, Dean's-yard, Westminster, Nov. 11. " Dear Sir,—l have seen Mr. Humphrey, who readily acquiesces in the bishop's suggestion that no further exhu matians shall take place for the present, so as to afford an opportunity for inquiry into the case by the means alluded to yesterday. He thinks the very best mode of arriving at the truth will be by a judicial inquiry, as proposed. Reims therefore engaged t) apprise Mr. :Dangertield of the steps you are taking to bring the case into the Bishop's Court, and you may depend on no further proceedings taking ptace at the churchyard between this and Tuesday next. Under these circumstances will it not be better to discharge the magistrate's summonses? " I am, Sir, yours faithfully, " JonN R. LEE. " D. E. Cameron, Esq." Under these circumstances Mr. Bodkin had a., tended that d ay a t th e Clerkenwell Police-court, and for the present had withdrawn the summonses ; but the pa r ti es were st ill amena b le to criminal pro ceedings. Mr. NODES moved, " That Mr. Cameron be em powered to employ a proctor, and take such other proceedings as may appear advisable to set aside the faculty granted by the Consistory Court for removal of coffins and h uman remains in Camden Town Cemetery, belonging to the parish of St. Martin's-in-the Fields." Mr. T. E. BAKE]; J.P., seconded the resolution. The resolution was put and carried unanimously, and the resolutions adopted at the public meeting were ordered to be received and entered upon the minutes. THE FATAL FIRE AT GREENWICH. Richard Roper, corn chandler, was placed at the bar of the Greenwich Police-court, before Mr. Traill, for final examination on a remanded charge of arson and attempting to defraud the Kent Fire Insurance Company. Mr. Scudamore, solicitor, and Mr. London, secre tary to the company, appeared for the prosecution ; and Mr. Ingle, solicitor, of Hibernia Chambers, London-bridge, defended the prisoner. Mr. Trail observed that he proposed to take the depositions of every witness necessary for the pro secution, but the evidence was exceedingly volu minous, and a considerable portion of that adduced at the coroner's inquest would not be required. It was necessary to present the case to the jury divested of all superfluous statements. The depositions of the various witnesses were then formally taken by the chief clerk, Mr. Boustcd, when Mr. Ingle reluested that the letter received from Bedford, purporting to be written by a person who paid the prisoner £2 on an agreement to take his business, should be put in evidence. Mr. Traill—How can I do that ? I shall take no notice of that letter, because if there was any weight in it, its effect would be against your client. Mr. Ingle—Will your worship express some opinion respecting that letter, to the effect that you consider the writer should come forward ? It is thought that he is deterred from coming from the fear that he may get into trouble. Mr. Traill—lt is undoubtedly my opinion that the man who wrote the letter ought to avow him self; but at the same time I consider it strange that any man who actually paid £2 on account of the business should not have come forward long before this, as he might liave legally claimed to be repaid the amount. Mr. Ingle—During the present week we have received information that the man is to found, and is residing in the neighbourhood of Maldon. The prisoner, who declined speaking in his own defence, was then fully committed for trial on th e charges of arson and attempting to defraud the Kent Fire Insurance Company. REFORM ASSOCIATION IN BIRMING HAM. Yesterday morning a meeting of the Reformers of Birmingham was held in the Committee•rcom of the Town-hall, for the purpose of determining r the best mode of rendering assistance to Mr. Bright in preparing and introducing a Reform Bill irit) Parliament. Mr. Muntz was in the ckair, and the room was well filled. The chairman, after alit din 3 to what had taken place in reference to rtforai since 1828, expressed his opinion of the propriety of intrusting Mr. Bright with the ,talk of framing a Reform Bill. It had been said (:tida3 the chairman) that they ought to place con fidence in the present Administration, and wait to see what they were prepared to do. Some objeeted to this, and asked what was to be expected of men of their antecedents. Now, being an oldish man, he (the chairman) could remember Lord Derby being a member of Lord Grey's Cabinet, and in correspondence with Thomas Attwood and the Political Union of Birmingham. He could remem ber another very prominent member of the Govern ment, who was desirous of being one of the last members of the great O'Connell's tail. There were in the present Government other gentlemen who had been accustomed to veer with the political weather cock just as the wind blew, and who could tell whether, if a good stiff breeze blew from the north, it would not influence them. (Hear, hear.) But as it was doubtful how the present Government might act, he thought the Reformers of England should be prepared for the worst, and prepared to support Mr. Bright in the measure he was . going to bring forward. (Cheers.) Before concluding, he (Mr. Muntz) might advert to one very singular style of remark indulged in some of the metropoli tan and provincial press with regard to reform. The Times, for instance, statedthat they wished they could find one man who honestly wanted reform for anything but a hobby. Now, he did not know what the large meeting before him felt, but he knew at least one man who did want reform, and that not for a hobby. He believed he might say of all pre sent, as he did of himself, that if he were to consult his interests, or his comfort, or his inclination, he would never again enter into the turmoil of politics. (Hear.) But he did not understand how any man possessed of the slightest generosity'of feeling could stand aloof and take no part in a movement which the interests of his country so obviously required. (Cheers.)—Mr. W. Lucy said the resolution he had to submit was a very general one, containing no de claration of principle whatever. It was well under stood that not only would an extension of the franchi: e be sought for in the proposed bill, but also that which would be more important still--a better dis tribution of the electoral districts. If a great stand was made upon this point, much benefit must follow. Having requested the gentleman who probably stood foremost in England at this moment to prepare a measure and take charge of it, they had now an opportunity of uniting to support a bill which, if at all good, would pro bably be refused neither by the House of Com mons nor the House of Lords. No man defended the present system. No man possessed of com mon sense, or common knowledge could be found who would say, " Let us stand still where we are." If the measures now proposed were too • sweeping, they might fail ; but of this he had no fear. One thing was certain, that the more the popular feeling was resisted the more it would ultimately demand and have. (Hear.)—The resolu tion, which was seconded by Alderman Lloyd, was unanimously agreed to.—On the motion of Mr. George Edmonds, it was also agreed that an asso ciation should be formed, to be called the Birming ham Reform A.soc tion for the purpose of co operating with Mr. Bright, and of watching over any bill on the subject of reform introduced into Parliament. A committee was appointed to carry the resolution into effect, and a subscription was commenced. A sum of about £3OO was promised by those present. IRELAND. DUBLIN, FRIDAY. CARDINAL CULLEN. The Evening Post—high Roman authority—con firms a statement to the effect that his Holiness the Pope means to confer the purple on Archbishop Cullen, who is at present a visitor in the Eternal City. As London, with its two millions and a quar ter of Protestants, has a cardinal of its own, why should not Dublin, the head-quarters of Romanism in Ireland, be enabled to sport a scarlet hat upon special occasions? The enthusiastic reception given to Dr. Wiseman shows that the people can fully appreciate the contemplated honour in store for the Papal delegate in Ireland. THE CHANNEL SQUADRON. A letter from Castletown-Berehaven mentions the arrival there of the following vessels, composing the Channel Squadron :—" At an early hour on Monday, the Channel Squadron appeared in the offing, at Castletown-Berehaven, working up with a brisk east wind. The Royal Albert, 121 guns, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral of the Red, Sir Charles H. Fremantle, K.C.8., Capt. Rice, under canvas up to royals, was the first to enter the har bour, and in quick succession was followed by her Majesty's ship Brunswick, 80, C a pt. O mmanney , her Majesty's ship Renown, 91, Capt. Forbes ; her Majesty's ship Orion, 91, C a pt. D'Eyncourt ; and her Majesty's ship Skipjack, 2, Lieut. Murray. These ships had been preceded by her Majesty's brig Wizard on Saturday, and her Majesty's steam frigate Advice, on Sunday. On the approach of the squadron the Wizard made sail and re-entered the harbour with the other ships." SECRET SOCIETIES. The public, it seems, are to prepare for the pub lication of a " most valuable and able letter," ad dressed by the Very Rev. Dr. O'Brien to the Young Men's Societies of Ireland on the now engrossing subject of secret societies. LANDED ESTATES COURT. Property to the amount of about £lOO,OOO was disposed of yesterday before Judge Martley. THE GWEEDORE SHEEP-STEALERS. A " Donegal Landlord," writing to a Dublin paper, tells this curious anecdote, for the truth of which he vouches :—" Three or four days before Mr. Nixon was shot, Mr. Cruise, resident magistrate, told me and several other people that he lately had an interview with the Roman Catholic bishop and some of his clergy, on the subject of a lot of sheep (40) lately taken off the Gwecdore Mountains, and on informing them that the continuance of such outrages in the district would cause the levy of the police tax, which had been suspended, to be re sumed, was told by them—first, 'that this lot of sheep were taken by people not belonging to the district ;' and on his saying that thi s would make no difference, that the sheep would be "brought back again.' I would like to know if men who are possessed of such accurate informations and who make such undertakings, can be regarded as other than participes criminis, or rather criminum, of their flocks."
