In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief. it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.

We will not propose to intrude upon your Lordship, now suff , ring unhappily from severe illness, but we have a melancholy satistaetion in sending the address, and in assuring your Lordship that, from our hearts, we participate in the feelings of sympathy and of affectionate respect by which it has been dictated.

My Lord—The completion of an edifice in this city, bearing your Lordship's name, and erected in honour of your virtues, and of your public service 3 in India, and the placing therein of your Lordship's bust, are events which we would fain celebrate, by renewing those ex pressions of attachment and respect which we addressed to you when we joined in the design of a building, to become a memorial of our high estimation of your chit. rac ter, to bear the name of " The Metcalfe Hall," and to contain the chambers appropriated to the reception of our public library, and to the sittings and proceedings of the Agricultural Society of India. You were eminently endeared to India by a career of conspicuous virtues and public service, which pene trated all classes of the co mmunit y with admiration and esteem. Their experiences of your talents for public adminis tration in an empire of such diversified interests as the British Empire of India—of your wisdom, and fortitude, and liberality of mind—of the munificence and kindecss of your disposition—of the courteousness of yhourm in tercourse with all ranks of society, prepared them the signal successes which wer e achieved by you over the social distractiors which existed in Jamaica, and the difficult contentions which had beset the Govern ment of British America, when you were successively summoned from your projected retirement by the dis crimination of her Majesty's Government to new spheres of most arduous as well us most honourable employ ment in those colonies. We cordially congratulate your Lordship on the im provement in the happiness and prosperity of these colonies which has attended your able and patriotic dis charge of the trust repceed in you, and on the dignity which has been conferred on you by our gracious Sove reign, in approbation of your services to her Majesty's Crown. Wo have read with affectionate satisfaction and sym pathy the sentiments expressed towards you in London on your return from Canada by the civil and military servants of the East India Company and others. noble ,non and gentlemen personally - connected with India, and we echo from the city of Calcutta the just tribute to your great virtues presented to you in their address. We beg to assure you that we cherish towards you a profound regard ; that you will ever dwell in our grateful remembrances ; and that we join in sincere prayers to Almighty God for the restoration of your health, and that you may long live to enjoy the appro bation and gratitude of your country.

My Lord—ln my c ondition of infirmity tied depression I cannot do more than acknowledge your Lordship's let ter, and express my utter hopelessness of doing justice to the goodness which on this, and every other occasion, I have had the honour of receiving from you. I beg you to convey to the gentlemen associated with your Lordship my heartfelt thanks for their kindness, and for the consideration which has induced the mode adopted of transmitting the communication from Cal cutta. I have the honour to be, with great respect, your Lordship's most faithful servant, METCALFE. To the Right Hon. the Earl of Auckland, G.C.B. LORD METCALFE'S REPLY TO TUE ADDRESS. Malshanger, Basingstoke, July 10. Sirs, —Scarcely possible as it would .have been under any circumstances to convey to you in adequate terms my sense of the generosity of the communication which I have received from you on the occasion of the opening of the public building with which the inhabitants of Calcutta have done me the honour to connect my name, the difficulty is increased by the infirmities which beset me, and the hopeless state of my health; I must, therefore, c onfine myself to the express i o n of the fen rent thanks of a grateful heart, which is fully sensible of your kindness, and of the honour conferred on me by the association of my name with the edifice appropriated to the several important public institutions and purposes to which the use of the Metcalfe Hall is devoted. My anxious hope that prosperity and every other blessing may attend you will accompany me to the grave, which is open at my feet. METCALFE. To the inhabitants of Calcutta. The Right Hon. Thomaa Milner Gibson. Vice-Presi dent of the Board of Trade, has appointed Thomas Poole Warde, Esq., to be his private secretary. SOUTH LANCASHIRE ELECTION. RETURN OF MR. BROWN. lerizerriete, TURSDAY.—A vacancy having occurred in the representation of this division of the county of Lancaster, in consequence of the elevation of the late Tory Member, Lord F. Egerton, to the House of Lords, udder the title of Lord Ell es mere, the election to the vacalit scat took place this day, when the third largest constituency in the kingdom, following the example of the only two constituencies which stand before it in point of numbers (the West Riding of Yorkshire anti the. City of London), returned a free-trade Member' to Parliament without the slightest show of opposition. Here also occured what Lord Morpcth, speak ing of his own quiet and unanimetis return for the Vest Riding, called " a singular contrast to preceding elections ;" for here, for the first time, the electors of South Lancashire met " under a roof, within doors, and sitting upon arm chairs." The County Court, as it is termed, met this morning at ten o'clock, at the Horse and Jockey, * second-rate tavern in this ph.ce, under the presidency of Standish Standish, Esq., the Sheriff ; and, small as the apartment was where the County Court was held, there was plenty of room for Mr. Brown, his more immediate friends, and those of the 18,148 electors who thought it necessary to attend. Amongst the supporters of Mr. Brow nave noticed Alderman, Walker, Alderman Potter, Esq., R. ense ssgs E sq ., w. A.Wood Esq,ith, Esq rnely, E Eb • li q rq t j J ;E : I .

E r 0, C. , eS, ok, E s a ' E o n : qns Samuel T T: (11: Bolton,. 1 : 31 J 1 e . c l ' others. The procee'ediugs were most unanimous, and when it is considered that for many years this comity has sent nothing but Tories to Parliament, the triumphant and unopposed re turn of Mr. Brown, coupled with the fact of his having re ceive:l a requisition signed by more than half of the whole constituency, must be most gratifying to himself as a free trader, and to the supporters of liberal priccipits generally. The usual formalities over, R. 11. GREG, Esq., came forward to propose William Brown, Esq., of Liverpool, as a fit and proper person to represent them _in Parliament.—(Cheers.) It was a short and pleasing duty which he had that day to perform— pleasing to himself and to the electors, ib that he had so excellent a candidate to propose to them ; short, heasinuch as the electors in general seemed to be of the same opinion as himself with respect to the fitness of the can didate whom he had the honour teepropose. It was not ne cessary for him, therefore, to detain them at any length.— -eonsity which _pi-evailed, he. need only allude to the - tact sent not a. - simai,w G. opposition had been raised to Mr. Brown's election; and to that other . fact, which was without a parallel in that county, that Mr. Brown had received a requisition signed by not less than 8,000 electors of South Lancashire calling on him to come forward to represent their interest in Parliament.—(Cheers ) He could not help for one moment contrasting the happy circumstances under which they met that day with those which existed at the last election.—(Cheers.) They met before upon that very spot, with the very same candidate, fighting for the very same principles which they advocated now ; and if he alluded to their discomfiture upon that occa sion, and to the repudiation of, their candidate and of their principles, he did so only in order to excite a more lively satisfaction, and a more sincere gratitude.—(Cheers.) If it was pleasant to triumph over their opponents, it was tenfold more agreeable to see their opponents converted into political friends —to see them advocating the principles for which they themselves had so long contended. —(Cheers.) That pleasure had been theirs (the free-traders of-Lancashire) in an eminent degree; but amidst all their rejoicings, amidst all the conversions which had taken place, they must not forget that there still existed a powerful party in this country attached to their former narrow com mercial principles—they must not forget that the contest, either on a small scale or a great scale, would still be re newed between the old principles and the new ; and that they had not only to push their new policy into more extended channels, but that they might have to defend the ground which they had so nobly and so successfully achieved. — (Loud cheers.) In such circumstances as those, it was of the utmost importance that they should possess in Parliament an able representative—an attached and tried friend, not a new convert—one whose principles, whose connexions, whose in terests, whose very habits were interwoven with commercial freedom and the freedom of manufacturing industry.— (Cheers.) Such he believed Mr. Brown to be, and such he believed he would prove himself if they would that day elect him their representative in Parliament.—(Loud cheers.) It had been said by some gentlemen, whose opinion was worthy of all respect, that there was no danger of their reverting to their ancient narrow policy in commercial and political affairs. If those gentlemen only meant that there was no danger of - a relapse to the utmost extent of these errors, he fully and cordially agreed with them; but if they thought that there was no danger of a partial return to them —of any reaction—then he differed from them entirely.— (Hear, hear.) He thought, under such . circumstances as existed, that a reaction was not oily possible but extremely natural. In the first place, many persons had extravagant expectations of anticipated good to result from free trade, which, though they might be realised in the end, might not be realised for some time. Such anticipations, so indefinite and extravagant, were sure to lead to disappointment, and disappointment naturally led to reaction —(Cheers.) Then, again, the repeal of the corn-laws might lead in the first place to extreme low prices of agricultural produce, and that might cause great alarm amongst the agricultural classes of the country, and might give rise to combinations and to strong attempts to return to their ancient princi ples. They might also have to, meet what was not often alluded to, but what he believed would be found to be the fact, the disappointed expectations of many of the manu facturing classes; for though it was true that they could compete successfully with the foreigner in those branches of industry where labour, capi'al, skill, and machinery were all united, .yet they would rind that all that class of manu facturers who relied upon the produce of the hand alone, who had hitherto had the monopoly of the home market, and had been protected by high duties, would suffer by the change.— (Hear, hear.) ft was quite right in them, as manufacturers, in asking for the removal of protection from agriculture, to give up all protection from themselves, and they had done so; but he was nevertheless quite prepared to see a very con siderable importation into this country of all those articles produced solely by hand, and for which our manufacturers had hitherto possessed the who's tome market.—(Cheers.) He would not say whether good or ill would result from that, but he was certain that in some quarters it might lead to dis appointment. All these circumstances combined might cause a strong reaction in favour of ancient principles, and such be ing the case, it was necessary to have a man like Mr. Brown in Parliament, whose experience would enable him to explain and to fight against circumstances of that description, founded on limited facts and on narrow views.—(Cheers.) Mr. Brown was, in his opinion, well qualified to represent them; he had been horn and bred a merchant, and was therefore, by edu cation, eminently fitted to represent South Lancashire, which was but a great hive of commercial industry, and whose pro duce it was the duty of the merchant to transport to all globe, receiving in return the produce of quarters rc r o s f u o ntr t i h es e .—(Cheers.) He had great pleasure in pro posing his friend Mr. Brown as the representative for South Lancashire.—(Loud cheers.) J. C. EWART, Esq., said that not having been made aware that the honour of seconding the nomination of Mr. Brown was to be confided to him, he was not prepared to address them at any length. He was quite sure that the great mea sure which had lately passed into a law would be productive not of evil, but of positive good to the agricultural interests, and he trusted that they should in future see both the com mercial and the agricultural classes uniting for the common good of the country.—(Cheers.) The election of Mr. Browb would, he was sure, assist in promoting that desirable object, and he had therefore great pleasure in seconding his nomina tion.—(Cheers.) No other candidate having been proposed, The HIGH SHERIFF' declared William Brown, Esq., dui elected a knight of the shire, to represent the southern divi• sion of the county of Lancashire. W. BROWN, Esq., M.P , then came forward, and was greeted with three-times-three. lie said—Gentlemen, no one can feel more sensible than fdo of the honour which was conferred on me, by sending me a requisition to be a candidate to represent in Parliament one of the most influ ential, one of the most enlightened, and one of the most numerous constituencies in the kingdom.—(Cheers.) That requisition, being more numerously signed than probably any document of the kind that was ever presented to any candidate before, at once claimed from me that attention and reepect to which it was entitled; ar.d it has also secured to you the victory of this day.—(Cheers.) My too partial friends have said a great deal in my behale and though I am 'quite aware that a more able exponent of your opinions might have been selected, yet I assure you that one more anxious ir)ustTodautelNfa. to perform his duty than I shall be could not have been chosen—(Cheers)—and, supported by such a constituency, whose opinions and views must exercise a great influence on the destiny of the nation, however feeble your representative may be, your voice must be heard in the Commons House of Parliament.—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, I most sincerely congratulate you upon the revocation of the corn-laws, and upon the conversion of the leading statesmen of the late two great political parties of this country to the advantages of commercial freedom.—(Cheers ) They have knocked the key-stone from the arch of monopoly, and the rotten fabric must soon crumble into dust.—(Cheers.) But, rn tlemen, we must not forget how deeply we are indebted to a I C a x o b y d e o n f , bragr .h tVnames , r o d i n 'i h h e al‘ rs tir tf the League.—(Loud cheers.) our Bright, distinguished t n i g r . 0 iNsvhields Nilson, friends an e to be measured by our voices, how extend.

I have no idea of one class of the community being compelled to pay for the comforts (.f another; that we must endeavour to correct. We possess local and acquired advantages which no other country in the world probably possesses, and if we make a prudent use of them no doubt England will continue to main tain that high position which - she now occupies among the nations of the earth.---(Cheers.) It will greatly depend upon the wisdom of your representatives, whether we are to con tinue to enjoy that pre-eminence or not; certainly, as far as the influence of the humble individual who addresses you goes, I shall endeavour, by anfettering industry, by promot • ing the morals of the people, by improving their education, a•.d by aking to repeal and amend such laws as require re pealing or amendment, to maintain our country in that glorious position which she now occupies.—(Cheers.) You are quite aware, gentlemen, that I possess no oratorical powers; I shall not trouble you, therefore, with any further observations won the present occasion, excepting to repeat that I cannot find words in which to express to you the gratitude and pleasure that I feel at your having entrusted me with your confidence—a confidence, allow me to say, which I shall be extremely proud of being able to deserve and to possess.—(Loud clteers.) - The Hon. Member having concluded by proposing a vote of thanks to the High Sheriff, resumed his seat amidst considerable applause. Some person in the crowd inquired whether Mr. Brown would support the Ten Hours Bill? Mr. BROWN—I have heard an anecdote of a Member of Parliament who went into a small public-house at Salford to ask for the vote of the landlord. He found a girl stand ing by the counter, and she asked him what he wanted. He said lie had come to ask her father for his vote. She then bawled out to her father up stairs, "Father, here's a Parliament man come, and wantsyour vote." " Tell him," responded the father, " to write his name on the counter wit h a piece of chalk, and i'll inquire into his character." — (Cheers, and great laughter.) Now, gentlemen, I believe you all know my character towards the poor—(Cheers) — and if I thought that a Ten Hours' Bill would tend to the good or the advantage of the working classes, I assure you I would support it; but you send me to a deliberative as sembly, and by the arguments which I hear there I shall be guided, as I am bound to be.—( Loud cheers.) The questioner did not think that Mr. Brown bad-fairly met the question. Mr. BnowN—But I think I have met it very fairly.— (Cheers.) Perhaps I can give you some information that you are not aware of. In the United States they work 78 hours a week. In France, from 72 to 74. In Austria, from 72 to 80. In Saxony from 72 to 80. In England 69 hours a-week-16 per cent. less than in any country on the con tinent.—(Loud cheers.) No other questions being proposed, three cheers were given for the new Member, three for the League, and three for the Queen, when the court was declared to be dissolved. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

That question must come under, the consideration of Parliament, probably for final settlement. I may here state that I am opposed to excessive differential, protective, and prohibitory duties of every kind whatsoerer.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Sugar at one period, as stated by Lord Brougham in 1817, produced 2,778,000/. per annum to the revenue. The Chancellor of the Exchequer thought in his wisdom that he could increase the finances of the cmntry by raising a further differential duty. He expected a great increase to the revenue; but the fact is, that the consumption of sugar was so materially abridged, that instead of being increased, the revenue from that article fell .. off to 2,530,000/.—(Cheers.) There are many other articles, equally the subject of excessive duties, which pre vent their due enjoyment by the multitude. I am quite aware that the revenue cannot do without a duty upon many articles, more especially articles of luxury; the rule should be to combine the maximum of revenue with the mi nimum of cost to the consumer.—(Cheers.) Ireland is the next subject to which I ought to allude. Ireland has been experimented upon for the last two hundred years by admi nistrations of various political sentiments; but I Ear that little has been done to make her's a happy and contented people.—(Hear.) I am most desirous for the Irish people to see that we think them no longer a conquered nation—that we give them equal rights and privileges with ourselves— that we forget we are separated by the Irish Channel, and that we treat them with the same kindness as the inha bitants of Yorkshire treat the inhabitants of Lancashire.— (Cheers.) The educatio❑ of the people also is a very im portant consideration, and one winch I should be ex tremely glad to see the Government pay more regard to than Ciovernments have hitherto done, and tq' do it in such a way as not to interfere with the religious feel ings and views of any particular sect.—(Cheers.) To be useful it must be general, and whatever our religious creeds may be, it is most important that we should have a moral community.—(Loud cheers.) The poor-laws also afford a subject worthy of deep consideration. I fear that the poor of this country, far from decreasing. are on the increase, and if any amendment of the poor-laws should be brought before the house of Commons, so far as I am able, and as one voice goes, I shall endeavour to prevent you being plun dered by worthless pretenders, but at the same time to relieve to the utmost infancy, old age, and real cases of distress.—(Hear, hear.) The sanitary condition of the country is another object requiring the attention of the Government. In many towns the masses of the working population, the industrious bees of the community, occupy cellars much less comfortable than the mud huts in Ireland, of which we hear so much.—(Hear, hear.) There is a great svnn t of water in many of Our towns. and Government must PRICE SD. PROPOSED EXHIBITION OF HAYDON'S PICTURES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The recent death of Mr. B. R. Haydon, the painter, under the melancholy circumstances of embarrassment and suicide, hastened, doubtless, by a keen sense of his neglected merit, and the opposition of the "Royal Academicians," who have at last, although too late, appreciated his talents by forwarding for the benerit of his family a " gift" of money, by doing which they acknowledge their own sense of in justice to the deceased—demands the consideration of the humane to his family. As the late Mr. Haydon died so unfortunately, it would now be good for a plan to be adopted, by which his bereaved family would reap some as • sistance by the exhibition of his paintings. It is suggested to the Committee by this medium, that if the Lord Mayor would centlescead to allow the use of the Guildhall of the city of London, to show the paintings en masse gratuitously, and the Committee for managing the subscription would get some considerable quantity of the likeness of the late artist, and st peison or two appointed to sell them at a small consideration, I have no doubt money might be gathered by such means. I beg leave, at all events, to request the Committee to make a continued exhibition of the pictures in all places ob tainable, and thereby realise something for the widow and family of a singular and eccentric man of genius, de streyed by influences that prevail in high places. I shall be obliged by your insertion of the above, if you think it proper to appear, and remain, Sir, your obedient servant, A CONSTANT 'READER. Marylrbone-street, Piccadilly, July 20, 1846. ARMY TEACHING AND ARMY FLOGGING. (From Douglas Jerrold's Weekly Newspaper.) The Government is about to raise the character of the soldier to a high moral standard; it will teach him bis true dignity, as an immortal being; in the meanwhile, it will flog him like a beast. Certain Government advertisements have lately gemmed the papers—advertisements offering fair re wards to schoolmasters, fitted and accomplished for the task of teaching military scholars. The friends of edu cation were gladdened by the evidence of newly awakened liberality on the part of the Government ; for the stipends offered to military schoolmasters were in many cases far above valet's or butler's wages. It was more than pleasant to discover that the true dignity and importance of the schoolmaster were kits.a..=l, It) 1,2 • Mnr` NO o trained minds were to be rated somewhat above moo wlio trained horses. The army—that melancholy mass of ignorance, taken in the mass—was to be refined, elevated. We were no longer to behold in so many red-coated bipeds, in columns or hollow square, so much mere brute power—moved and swayed, and put into attitude, and bid to march and halt, and bite cartridge ends, and draw the mortal trigger at command ; with no more in dividual will, no more self-accountability, than a machine. The soldier might say to Perkins's steam gun, " Thou art my brother," for the creature of human affections and the thing f the foundry were equally moral agents—were equally supposed to think of the bloody work allotted to them. But this mortal darkness —so thought the jocund readers of the State advertise ments for military teachers—was to pass away. The soldier was henceforth to be cultivated. His reason was to be enlarged and purified ; his affections softened ; his entire moral being elevated that be might make the nobler hero. That he may no longer blindly, ignorantly, do the behest of his superiors—firing and bayoneting, according to orders, with not a thought of the deaths he dealt ; of the streams of blood he loosed from living bosoms—it has been proposed to educate him ;to culti vate his moral sense to take a proper pride in his busi ness. Mr. Carlyle in his " Cromwell," avers that every soldier ought " to think himself God's soldier, killing God's enemies ;" and to possess red-coated enthusiasts with this most amiable delusion is probably the high purpose of those who call aloud to the country for mili tary schoolmasters. It has, however, been objected that as we educate the soldier as a thinking, contemplative being, so shall we risk the enfeeblement or loss of those elements that now create armies. The very cruelty and remorselessness of war, it has been urged, demands the coarsest agents. " We do not make revolutions with rose water," said the Frenchman. Battles are not to be fought by squares and squadrons of scholars and philosophers. Teach the soldier to think, and think rightly, and what will his thoughts tend to as he treads his monotonous sentry pace ? May not some mischievous spirit—all rebellious to the might and glory of the Horse Guards—prompt the tool-sentinel, the man-engine, to take himself to bits ? to sit in calm judgment upon the true beauty of his uniform, his cuffs and facings ? To question the ennobling utility of that iron tube, that hard. dead piece of walnut, hugged in his arm until, by use, it has almost become incorporated with the ?May be apt t t this to a n b a o l; k s e tuar:ceiry imt, sentinel, l the real worth of pip e-cla y —and so, be tem p ted to re nounce it:- A fear of this has arisen in the minds of m en, otherwise greatly pleased at the p ros p ect of be mtaaungh?z p a ed pa n r g t o of pedagogue him; icc be holding iA future fighting battalions, highly cultivated beings ; elevated, polished doers of the grim behests of bloody war. Fear not ; be at ease, gentlemen. The Government will rule after its own wise fashion ; after its own saga cious alternation. If the hero be educated, he shall still be flogged. Arithmetics and primers, and books of re ligion and morality shall be familiar to the soldier as the roll call, and so shall the cat. Though school-rooms be furnished the halberds shall continue. The Govern ment, wisely inconsistent, will reserve to itself the cat-o'- nine tails, h a education and philosophy should over refine its martial students. Our paper contains an account of the last refractory , 1 scholar, remonstrated with by the drummer. The soldier is dead ; and as the case is still before the Coroner, we shall return to it. The dead man com mitted a grave offence, he violently struck his sergeant. Nevertheless, he should have been otherwise punished. , The infliction of the lash upon a human being degrades not him alone who suffers, but shucks and disgusts—or failing to do so, the mischief is still worse—all who behold it. Imprisonment, forced labour, compelled soli tude, may be visited upon evil- doers ; for each degree of punishment may carry with it moral correction. But the first lash lowers man to the beast, and his spirit is degraded or broken for ever. And so the British soldier is to be carefully educated, and duly flogged. We are to engage schoolmasters for the army ; we are to teach the military morals and philosophy ; but, as at the dames' schools, the urchins are kept in awe by the exhibited rod, Iso in our acade mies for heroes, the educated, elevated warricrs, are not to shut their eyes to the cat. CHORLEY. MESSRS. R. COBDEN AND CO.'S TREAT TO THEIR WORKPEOPLE, TO CELEBRATE THE REPEAL OF THE CORN-LAWS. It was with no small pleasure we witnessed the passing of the train containing Mr. Cobden's workpeople on Wednesday last. Amidst other rejoicings, none could be more appropriate than that of the hands employed at the works of the Champion of Free Trade. All the hands met at the Crosse Hall Works at six o'clock in the morning, attired in their holiday dress, and looking highly respectable. They marched through Chorley to the railway station in the following order : Two men, one carrying the portrait of R. Cobden, Esq., M.P., painted by one of his own workpeople ; the other carrying a portrait of J9hn Bright, Esq., M.P. Crosse Hall Band, who played in excellent style. The Females. The workmen according to their various branches, all wearing medals, suspended by a blue riband, con taining the portrait of R. Cobden, Esq. Children, about 260 in number, carrying small banners with various mottoes, such as "Cobden for ever ;" " God save the Queen ;" "Bright for ever ;" "Free Trade with all the world." The large and elegant banners contained the follow ing :—"Cobden for ever ;" with a crown in the centre, under which was inscribed "God save the Queen"— " Glorious achievement of the Anti Corn Law League." Before the children was another band of music, which played appropriate airs. The company, consisting of the workmen, their wives, and friends, amounting to upwards of one thousand four hundred persons, left the Chorley station at half-past seven, and arrived in Fleetwood about a quarter past nine. A procession was here formed, the children first, headed by the band up to the Mount, where three hearty cheers were given for their safe arrival. Buns and coffee now commenced being distributed to the youngsters in a tent erected by Mr. Hornby of the Fleetwood A r ms Inn, capable of holding about 400 children. This being over, a e band number of the workpeople commenced dinner (th playing all the time), and by relays the dining con tinued till about four o'clock. the leaders_ and managers of the procession dining last.

Amongst the company at dinner was J. W. Garside, Esq., surgeon to the works. The weather was beautifully fine, and the lads and lasses enjoyed them selves much on the heath in a country dance. The en joyments of the day were enhanced by short trips in ex cursi3n steamers, of which great numbers availed them selves. About half-past six, the company, highly delighted with the pleasures of the visit, and the liberality of their employers, returned to the station in the same order as before. It was nearly eight o'clock before the immense company started back, with the flags and banners waving in the air, and the mu s ic playing ; and when they passed Preston a little before nine, it appeared as if the whole town had collected to view and welcome " Cobden's hands" on their return. In half an hour they were safe in Chorley, not a single accident having occurred to mar the pleasures of the day. The whole of the hands, numbering 660, men, women, A and children, had their day's wages paid, besides all the is., other expenses of railway, sailing, refreshments, &c., by zted H.

At the conclusion of the examination of the engine-drivel and stoker before the county magistrates at Ilford gaol on Monday, Captain Coddington, one of the Government in spectors of railways, proceeded to Stratford, for the purpose of examining into the efficiency of the signals and other matters relating to the accident, preparatory to making bis report to the Board of Trade. He was attended by Mr. Roney, the secretary, Mr Scott, the locomotive superinten dent of the line, and Mr. Samuels, the resident engineer. His first object was to inspect the locality of the signals and - the distance they could be seen ; and after a careful messure ment it was found that they could be discerned 220 yards down the line—that extreme distance being 479 yards from the station. That the signal was erected on the wrong aide of the line was the general opinion. Had it been on the side of the down line, it could have been seen almost double the distance. Captain Coddington was informed that the cons parry hadcommenced to remove the signals on the Colchester line, which were all of the 'tune description, and to erect in their Orce some of a similar construction to those on the Cambridge branch. They have only been recently eGM pleted, and it was admitted that day and night they have proved most efficient. A doubt being entertained as to the possibility of Cl.a.re, the engine -driver, being able to bring the train to a stopprge, - from where the signal can first be seen at the Stratford station, at the speed it was said to be travelling, Captain Coddington, we believe, suggested the propriety of making experimental trips; with a view of ascertaining the fact. It . was accordingly arranged to make such trials yesterday, with the same engine and trucks which caused the accident. Captain Coddington accordingly visited Stratford on Tces day, and went on the Firefly engine (the front of which was much knocked about), accompanied by Mr. Scott, the lace. motive superintendent, and Mr. Samuels, the engineer.. They then proceeded with the experiments proposed,. the result of which clearly substantiated the statement made by - the company's officers, that the train could have been brought to a standstill before it reached the station, had attention been directed to the signal and the proper appliances used. In the course of the experiments the train was put on at the rate of thirty miles an hour: On sighting the signal the steam was shut off; and, by applying the breaks and reversing the engine, the train was brought to a stoppage some yards from the Stratford _ station. It will be recollected, that at the magistrates' inquiry, it was stated that the speed of the train, when first seen coming up, was about seven or eight miles an hour. The mischief to thecarriages, however, tends to show that the speed must have been greater. After the trials Captain Cod- - dington left for town. It is considered probable that his re port to the Board of Trade will not be issued until the result of the trial of the engine-driver and stoker. The accounts received on Tuesday at the Shoreditch sta tion of the condition of the sufferers lying at the London Hospital were of a favourable character, as regarded four of them; but in the cases of William Prentice, the company's porter, and Mr. Morris, of Adam-street, nnford, and not of the Hoop Inn, Deptford, as previously reported, their condition was far from satisfactory. The unfortunate fellow, Prentice, who is in his eighteenth year, was, it appears, in the last compartment of the - second-class carriage, with Shaffington, another porter, and Henry Olive, a goods' train guard. Shaffington states ho was lying his full length on one of the seats, and Prentice and Olive were sitting on the Letalolnp.fg2r..Eg_ittn was su road between the rails, and finding the engine of true train over him. He has sustained little injury, and is expected to leave the hospital in a few days. In the other compartments of this carriage were, Mr. Morris, William Millwood, of 2, Luke-street, Turk-street, Bethnal-green Mr. Murphy, solicitor, of Hendon; John Smith, of 2, Cooper's-gardens, Hackney-road. the constable ; John Keeler, of West-hill, Essex; James Stone, and Mr. Atkins, of Hale, near Hendon. The three laidies who were in the - carriages more in advance of the train, Mrs. Paine, of Ilford, who had the small bones of her left leg fractured ; Mrs. Wed dersley, of Chigwell, thigh fractured, and Mrs. Bromley, of Colchester, are, we are happy to say, in a fairway of recovery. The husband of the last-mentioned lady had his shin frac. turerl. He is also going on favourably. Those in the hos pital have been visited daily by Mr. Roney. the secretary, who has directed that everything should be done which can in anyway be conducive to their comfort. The anxiety - evinced by that gentleman is spoken of in the most kind terms by the sufferers. An accident of a precisely similar character as the unfortu nate affair on Saturday, occurred at the same spot six. years ago, and, though many persons were hurt, it was no t o f so 'earful a description as the recent one. PROVIDENT BOOKSELLERS' RETREAT. On Tuesday the inauguration of the Provident Booksellera' Retreat, at Ling's Langley, the foundation stone of which was laid in September last, took place under most favourable auspices. A special train was engaged to the place, and about two hundred of the friends of letters went down by it to assist at the ceremony. The Provident Booksellers' Retreat is an offspring of the Booksellers' Provident Fund Society, and the manner in which its objects have been carried out must be most gratifying to those who have taken an interest in the cause. Some difficulty at first existed as to finding an eligible site for the building; but this was soon removed by the munificence of J. Dickenson, Esq., the well-known raper maker, who gave a piece of ground, of three-and-a-half acres for the purpose. The building already erected consists of seven comfortable dwellings of four rooms each, well-venti lated, water laid on, and all that could conduce to the com— fort of the occupants being well provided for by Mr. W. IL Cooper, the architect. _ The ceremony of the inauguration took place under the auspices of Sir E. Bulwer Lytton, Bart., who presided at the breakfast given on the occasion.

A Bill is now before the House of Commons, and is to be read a second time to-day, which, under the title of " Land anC Companies Clauses Consolidation," others further facilities by whick the winding up of railway companies may be brought about in cases where they either ought not to go on, or it is desired by the share- holders to suxpend proceedings. v This Bill, 'which comes into opera tion immediately on passing, requires that when a company has tallied au Act ofParlianactd. the whola of the capital required for do- fraying expenses shall be subscribed under contract within two ca. lendar months after the passing of such Act ; that within three mouths after the passing of such Act the register of shareholders shall . _ be completed ; and that within lour months a copy of the register shall be deposited with the Registrar of Joint Stock Cornpanle*. It . . is further provided that within three months after depositing the copy register, a majority in value of the registered shareholders may dis solve the company. The Bill has given very great satisfaction to some of the more practical men in the City, who see in it a a remedy for the deficiencies of former proceedings on the part of the Legislature. THE CHINESE RANSOM.—Tuesday was the last day for the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury to receive tenders for about 840,00 ounces of sycee silver bullion lately re ceived by her Majesty's ship Vixen, of the value of about 1,000,000 dollars, for which it appears there were many bidders among the bullion merchants in the City for exportation to Ilamburgh, Rotter dam, and France. The gold exceeding five grains per pound troy was paid at the rate of 775, 9d. per ounce standard. No tender was received for any quantity less than 100,000 ounces of sycee bullion. The delivery from her Mesty's Mint commenced this morning, and will be continued until the end of the month, within which 'mica the whole will be delivered. SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—Tuesday eveninz, between the hours of five and six o'clock, an accident of a very serious description took place at the chocolate and mustard manufactory of Messrs. Taylor, Brothers, 211, Brick-lane, Spitalflelds. It appears that William Paine, a youth of eighteen years of age, went into what is called the cutting room of the chocolate department, and taking up a cake of the prepared chocolate, was about to place it under the " cutters," when a part of the machinery with which he was sur rounded caught hold of his smock frock and whirled him into the most dangerous part of the works. The poor fellow's cries brought several of the workmen to his assistance, and the engine was promptly stopped, but not before his right arm was shattered in a shocking manner. He was removed to the London Hospital, where amputa tion of the limb was found necessary. The operation was performed with much skill by Mr. Curling, surgeon to the hospital. THE GRAVESEND AND ROCHESTER RAILWAY V. Tin REV. JAMES FoRMBY,—The dispute between the Rev. J. Formby and the Gravesend and Rochester Railway Company has at length been brought to a conclusion. It will be remembered that on the Sill of November, when some labourers of the Company were brought before the mayor and magistrates at the Guildhall, Ro chester, for cutting down trees, it was then agreed that all matters in dispute should be submitted to arbitration. The decision of the arbitrators has been given in favour of the Rev. Gentleman, and the consequence is that the company will have to rebuild the wall bound ing his property, and to pay all the expenses incurred, which, it is said, will not be less than 1,000/. JOURNEYMEN BAKE RS —The masters and journeymen bakers of Edinburgh have held a public meeting, at the instance of the latter, in order that measures may be adopted to lessen their hours of labour, to secure to them wages proportionate to their toil, and to have an opportunity afforded them to improve themselves physically. mentally, and morally. The men having submitted to their em ployers their corn - plaints, which, amongst other grievances, comprised the frightful one of sixteen hours daily incessant toil, and having alio proposed the plans suggested by themselves tor the improvement ofr their condition, the masters fully acknowledged the justness ot hi th t ti . complaints, and also expressed their unqualified ac of who(;1 condition ; after plans proposed by the men for the redress of th grievances, and the general improvementgrulwesZn_geseoundett timed to re which, the wlshes:of the Journeymen, dress their complaints and comply . vri rn athise ith Lord the men voted thanks tot heir masters.

The generous expression of sympathy which his Lordship's question and Lord Lansdowne's answer elicited from the English Mouse of Peers, must have been peculiarly gratifying to the Princess Czartoryski, who happened to be present at the moment.

GlLES'S.—Tues day, this brewery, said to be the oldest it, London, was sold by publie auction on the premises. It is to be demolised, and a handsome row of houses erected on its site. Tradition asserts that the celebrated " St. Giles's bowl," that was offered to convicts on their way to exe cution at Tyburn, came from this brewery. THE TOWER.—In consequence of the scarcity of corn in New South Wale., and the necessity which has arisen for sending out a large supply for the use of the troops stationed there, it has been found necessary to erect temporary sheds on the site formerly the Lower Moat, for the reception of ordnance stores now deposited in the warehouses within the fortress, in which a large quantity of grain is to be stored, and sent out in several vessels to Australia. We believe 250,000 quarters of wheat, in addition to rye and 'Debi, will be forwarded fcr the use of the soldiers during the next six. months. ST. MARY-LE-STRAND.—On Tuesday, after the labour of several weeks to erect a scaffolding, a new ball and wind indi cator, both gilt, nearly simiar to St. Paul's, were placed at the sum mit of the church at St. Mary-le-Strand. The entire length of the tower and steeple has been thoroughly cleaned, so that it has the ap• pearance of being new. BOAT RACB BETWEEN THE ETONIANS AND THIL OXONIANS —ETON, TUESDAY Evrsixo. —Considerable in terest was created in the neighbourhood of Windsor and Eton in consequence of a trial of skill having been ap pointed to come off between the eight Etonians who are to compete with the Westminster School, on Thursday se'nnight, between Putney and Mortlake, and eight of the Oxonians. At the start, which took place between 7 and 8 o'clock, both boats got well off together, and so continued with but little variation for the first half mile. The Etonians then began to draw ahead of their opponents, and after a beautiful dis play of skill and strength, won the match, amidst the cheers of their friends, by twn bpsibe length. inf A nt
