The advantage of this ability is enhanced by its being displayed on other than mere political questions, so that the range of topics Is more large and generally interesting.

T ILE BIT N, . . racter of Mr. TOtLMIN SMITH, that no honed man can suspect the Motives of any part of his proceed ings, but, be it observed, the Attorney-General thinks fit, in his place in •Parliament, to charge a member of his own profession with conduct unworthy of his profes sion—that he had first tried to get money, and when that attempt failed had professed a public object. Now what were the facts of the case which, with all the mystifi cation and suppression attempted, came out ? They were these among others :—That there are now in the hands of Government documents placed there by Mr. T. SMITH himself, which not only show every insinuation against him to be wholly unfounded, but to be, in every respect, the direct reverse of the facts. This has been alleged in a published document by Mr. T. SMITH, was re• alleged by Mr. SrOONER in the House, and a letter from Sir J. GRAHAM read to prove it, and it was uncontra dicted and unnoticed, though Sir J. GRAHAM was in the House. Yet the Attorney-General professed to oppose a Committee, because all the facts were before the House. Why, here: are these very documents, not one of which was before the House ? In a Committee Mr. T. SMITH would have proved their contents; therefore, in reality, was a Committee opposed. Again, the Chancellor of the Exchequer says, "We only judge Mr. TOULMLN SMITH from his own letters." But he knew this was not so. Those letters were read only with a colouring given to them on in formation derived from a man whom Sir THOMAS WILDE de clared guilty of perjury. It was this colouring that gave effect to the letters. Everybody knows that a letter can only be understood by knowing the circumstances under which it was written. Again, the Attorney-General as serted that Mr. TOUL3IIN SMITH tried to entrap the officer. To every plain understanding we think it must be perfectly clear that the attempt at entrapping was the other way. The following facts came out :—That it was not Mr. SMITH who went to the officer, but the officer who went to Mr. SMITH. This alone is suspicious, and clearly shows no wish of Mr. SMITH to entrap. One naturally asks—who sent the officer to Mr. SMITH, and why did he go? But it was ac tually further declared—inconsistenly enough with the charge of Mr. SMITH trying to get money and not being able to succeed—that 251. was tendered to Mr. SMITH, and he refused to accept it. This is stranger still. But the mystery gets still deeper when we learn from Mr. SPOONER'S reply that, notwithstanding all the tattle about actions by all the three speakers on the Government side, no action had ever been commenced, and the time within which it could be brought had long elapsed. Now, we can, of course, know nothing of the contents of documents unproduced. But this is clear, that all the facts are not before the public ; but on the face of the facts which came out in the course of the debate, put together, more than enough appears to show that the insinuations made by the Attorney-General are wholly destitute of fon.a.tion. Again we say, then, shall . priYate man, bringing forward a case of public Importance, be suffered to have his reputation blasted, and his professional prospects necessarily in jured by such language on the part of the Attorney- General? We do not enter into the inquiry whe ther there was any private motive on the part ofthe Attorney- General. We say that every man who look?. to Parliament as the grand inquest of the nation,'fbefore which public ques tions should be brought, is interested in the protection of petitioners to that House. Ministers have here refused in quiry, apparently from fear of what certain suppressed do - cuments would disclose, and have endeavoured to damage, by all possible means, the person of the petitioner, by a mystification and misrepresentation of facts which of them selves in reality throw only more suspicion on the conduct of the Board of Excise, or its emissaries. At four o'clock on the morning of May the sixteenth, eighteen hundred and forty-six, a British House of Com mons sanctioned the principles of Free Trade as incorporated in the great measure of Sir ROBERT PEEL, by a majority of Ninety-eight. Until the Constitutions of England are ex tinct, that day and that hour will -be memorable. Posterity will revert to that division as the commencement of the most salutary system ever adopted by a Legislature. It will contemn the factious, scorn the obsolete, and forget the invidious among the Opposition ; but its most grateful rec ollections will be concentrated upon the noble act with which this discussion has terminated. In the achieve ment, however, the achievers will not be alto gether overlooked ; they will have their memo ries embalmed by the gratitude of after generations. Often as we have already particularised those illustrious statesmen whose patriotism has formed the weapon through the instrumentality of which the people have thus accom plished the destruction of monopoly, this momentous occa sion will, we are assured, more than palliate the repetition of i our acknowledgments in their regard. The victory achieved this morning —this bloodless and sinless victory, the deed of reason and the triumph of justice—will embellish the reign of our most gracious SOVEREIGN more than a thousand Agincourts. The age of VicroatA will be the more espe cially cherished and revered because it will be associated with those evidences of a QUEEN consulting in every instance the happiness, the welfare, and the interests of her people. Nor can our more prominent and distinguished legislators escape the most enviable fame which can be acquired by public servants, by public benefactors. Sir ROBERT PEEL, as having pos sessed the moral heroism to sacrifice personal ties, party power, and the most fostered policy of a career, because he recognised the benefits which would thereby result to the nation ; Lord JOHN RUSSELL, as having, irrespective of all other considerations,first shown that opinions might be changed with consistency ; Mr. COBDEN and his Siamese colleague, as the most untiring and earnest orators for the dissemination i of free-trade principles without the House, and Mr. VILLIERS as the most persevering and undaunted supporter of those principles within the House—have individually i and collectively obtained a most enviable renown. In anticipation of what has so recently transpired, the readers of The Sun may remember that, on Mon day se'nnight, we ventured upon a prognostication that this third and final division in the Lower House of Par liament would be remarkable for an overwhelm ing majority. That prognostication has been ful filled. In relation to itself, but especially in re lation to the antecedent majorities, the present is parti cularly remarkable for its magnitude. Firstly, it is a majo rity, short only by two of a hundred! Secondly, it exceeds by one the majority upon the first division ! Those who would willingly deteriorate this estimate of the division list will possibly feel inclined, at the first blush of this announce ment, to ridicule that single vote as an extravagant and dis proportioned cause of satisfaction. On a secoad considera ' tion, they would, however, speedily perceive their ridicule to be excessively ill-timed and unfortunate ; for, on investi gation, the excess of the third majority over the first proves to be very considerably more than that of a solitary unit. " But," these malcontents will persist, " the first division, in February, brought a majority of ninety-seven, while the third division, in May, brought merely an addi tional vote, ninety-eight!" Granted ; the apparent increase is trivial enough. But the proportions show it to be at once important and satisfactory : the ma -1 jority of 97 was in a House of 581 Members, while the majority of 98 was in a House of merely 560 Members. The arithmetical and logical inferences are ostensible ; the majority is in all essential particulars over whelming. Thus far, therefore, these wonderful measures-- germinated in the popular will, advocated by the Member for Stockport, and advanced by the Premier—have received the most emphatic approval of one of the three great divisions of the Constitution. The SOVEREIGN has already evinced her gracious acquiescence in those measures which the greatest statesmen of the age have pronounced as absolutely necessary for the welfare of all classes in the United King doms. It, therefore, rests only with the august assembly of Peers to testify their accordance to the Bill : that their own interests are peculiarly involved in its acceptation we shall take an early opportunity of showing. And in celebration of the recent sanction given to the principles incorporated in that Bill, we may virtually date, from the present day, the proclamation of Free Trade. Letters from Posen, of the 4th, state that several arrests, chiefly among the noble proprietors of land, have been re cently made in that province, in consequence of new traces of a conspiracy having been discovered. Madrid papers of the Bth have arrived. The province of Malaga was declared to be in a state of seige in consequence of the recent attempt to assassinate the Political Chief. The Herald() tells a long story about this attempt having been the result of a political conspiracy having ramifications in Granada and Virneira and concocted at Gibraltar by General NOGUERAS. It however, adduces no proof of the existence of any such conspiracy, and the story altogetherhas the air of a clumsy fabrication. So completely is tranquillity restored in Galicia, that the province has been relieved from martial law. The Galician insurgents, who had taken refuge in Por tugal, have been sent to Perriche. MADRID BOLSA, MAY 8.--The Three per Cents, were done at 32% for cash ; the shares of the Bank of San Fernando, at 320; and those of Isabel, at 188. We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. In the Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday, in the debate on the extraordinary and supplementary credits, a credit was demanded for the mission of M. DErniums to La Plata. M. THIEAS took this occasion to attack the Go vernment for not having sent out a sufficient military force to La Plata. M. GUIZOT replied, and a personal and some what bitter altercation ensued between them. M THIERS concluded by moving, as an amendment (solely with a view, as it would appear, of testing the strength of parties), that the credit should be augmented by 1,000 francs. This amendment was rejected by a majority of 80, there being 183 in favour of the Ministry, and 103 only voting with 31. Dims. The discussion was resumed on Thursday, and the Minister of Marine stated, in the course of the debate, that the Government was satisfied that the fire which had destroyed the dock-yard of Mourillon, at Toulon, was the result of accident.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE BRITISH MUSEUM.— About eleven o'clock yesterday forenoon a fatal accident occurred at the British Museum to a poor man named Collins, who was carrying a bucket of water up the ladders to the stonecutters engaged in facing the left wing, when on reaching a height of fifty or sixty feet, he fell backwards, and was precipitated to the basement. On being picked up he presented a piteous spectacle—his bones, dislocated and broken, were protruding through the skin. The unfortunate creature, who was nearly sixty, was conveyed to the Universi;y College Hospital, where he expired in less than two hours. LORD'S DAY SOCIETY.—The fifteenth anniversary meeting of this Society was held yesterday, in Exeter-hall, the Bishop of Calcutta in the chair, supported by the Rev. Messrs. Harding and Hoare, Mr. Plumptre, M.P., Mr. J. Wilson, &c. The Secretary read the report, which deplored the continued desecration of the Sabbath, especially on railways, and also by the immense number of pleasure-vans and steam-boats which, crammed with passengers, plied on Sundays. It then congratulated the meeting upon the success with which the Society's efforts to enforce the due observance of the Lord's day were, in many instances, crowned, and stated that Windsor Castle was closed on that day. The receipts amounted to 7601., and the expenditure to 1001. The report was adopted, and the meeting separated. IRON, HARDWARE, AND METAL TRADES' PENSION Socirrx.—Yesterday, the annual general meeting of the supporters of this society, for granting pensions to members of the above trades, and their widows, was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate street. The chair was taken by T. B. Simpson, Esq., the treasurer. The report was read by the secretary, and congratulated the meeting upon the progress the society had made since its formation three years ago. The receipts, which last year amounted to 1,3851., were now above 1,7011., this increase arising from the contributions of the original members, and not, the committee regretted to say, from any great number of new subscribers. From the state of the funds there was, however, every reason to hope that the object' for which the society was established would be carried into effect in September next, when two distressed members of the trade would be provided with pensions. TOWN MISSIONARY AND SCRIPTURE READERS' SO cirrv.—Last:evening the ninth annual meeting of the above Society was held in the large hall, Freemasons' Tavern. The chair was taken by John Dean Paul, Esq, The report stated that, through the limited means of the society at present, they have not been able to extend their mission further than to a few of the principal towns. Resolutions to carry out the objects of the society were adopted.) FEMALE SERVANTS' kIOME SOCIETY.—Last evening the tenth anniversary meeting of the raembersof this society:was held at the Hall of Commerce, Threadneedle-street ; John Labouchere, Esq., in the chair. The Chairman said, that since July, 1844, up wards of 2,200 female. servants out of place had been received into the houses in Knutsford-place and Hatton-garden, and discharged as soon as they had obtained situations, according to the rules of the society ; while more than 5,000 had placed their names on the re gistry. The committee had not as yet been able to open more than two "houses." If they had means they would open twenty, for that number would not be more than sufficient. When it was considered that there were al wa y s u p war d s o f 12,000 servants in the metropoli s out of place, it would be seen how great was the necessity for su c h an Institution. The report., on the motion of the Rev. Mr. u utchings, was unanimously adapted, and the meeting broke up.

Tinere were at present missionaries employed in the Feejee Islands., The meeting was extremely well attended, and about 2001. wsr, collected in aid of the mission, when the meet ing separated.

It is stated that a robin is not permitted to live longer than four years. At that age he is attacked by th e younger birds and killed. Though at other times the most pugnacious o f bi rds, he ' dies unresistingly. It is a curious and instructive fact in the history of com mercial nations, that England, after an experience of three hundred years, after restrictions upon trade and commerce without number, whether by heavy imposts or absolute pro hibition, or navigation laws, is, in the middle of the nine teenth century, rapidly adopting the political as well as fiscal principles which rendered the small republic of Holland the most flourishing, industrious, wealthy, and most powerful state in modern times. That little community, which after wards became so illustrious, commenced its very existence with the free-trade system, it encouraged the importation of 1 corn and wine, and iron and wood, in short, of every neces sary of life, and every material for manufactures; during its prosperity too, and when some neighbouring nations were gaining ground upon the industrious Dutch, still they ad hered to their principles under every temptation and pro vocation which might excuse a departure from the sys- ' tem, and finally triumphed over all their opponents. History, "the mistress of wisdom," teaches us these facts, and it teaches also that the greatness of the republic first began to decline, and trade to recede from its shores, when the ambition of Stadtholders, and the expenses of foreign wars, and the folly of the people, imposed heavy import duties. DE Wrrr, wh o saw th e ev il d a y com i ng , prophetically said, "If theseaugmented imagineut custom-duties be long maintained, let us not our people, thus burdened, will be able pete with foreigner s ... sir v. to com pete by such lessons, :Indus:" 1 " 1 1 7 . 1, to his honour, has cated state :of society will admit, to remove' afar as a compli obstacle to the full development of what the PyrlT possible °rusts' using the phrase in a different sense, call "native industry : Free trade, in fact, is the only source of re a l i n d us t ry, whe ther applied to cotton, or corn, or wool, or silk ; and on this great principle, which is fully admitted by all the leading statesmen of this country, the Minister has founded a commercial system remarkable alike for its daring and its certain results. Experience, which shows what it has done points out with a precision approaching to reality what it can do ; and it is singular that the question had only to be fairly opened for consideration to ensure complete success. Never on any measure did such unanimity prevail among men whose opinions are of value, as on this corn-law ques tion : statesmen, political economists, practical manufac turers, the great body of the representatives of the people, and the people themselves, are all on one side, and though speeches have been made almost without number showing the certain ruin which will follow this great innovation, the majority in its favour, alter some three months' deliberation, has rater increased than diminished. On the first grand division which tcok place for going into Committee, on the last day of February, the majority was 97, and on the last it was 98, in a House with twenty-one Members less. The fate of the new system of policy is thus sealed. The prospects which it opens up are almost too vast for human conception ; for it creates a commercial revolution not in the United Kingdom only, but throughout the world. Want of space prevents us from adverting further to the subject. We yesterday drew the attention of our readers to the result of the debate on Thursday night on Mr. SPOONER'S motion. The subject is too important to be allowed thus to pass over. It assumes many phases. We yesterday touched only on that which concerns SEARCH-WARRANTS themselves and to this we shall again recur. But, another point of little, if any less constitutional importance, was strongly put by Mr. WAKLRY, namely, this—ls the system to be permitted under which no*, systematically, any petitioner to the House of Commons is liable to slander and abuse, in order to screen tke Goverment ? Here is a strong case. Such teetmemee Wen bQi the goo to the OP RATHER NEW.—A few days ago a lady visited one of the most extensive shopping establishments In Glasgow, and made purchases to the extent of 80/. On examining the contents of her purse, she found she had only 501., and suggested that one of the shop-boys should just step into the carriage along with her, and re ceive payment at her mansion. Instead, however, of arriving at a. fine mansion, judge of his surprise when the officials of a lunati c asylum seized him and held him fast. The lady had, of course !, specially prepared a warrant for his committal.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Liverpcol market yesterday the sales of Cotton were 8,000 to 10,000 bales, 3,000 of which were on speculation. Prices were ve?r firm. Shares continued dull.

The result of the division in the House of Commons this morning upon the Corn Bill has afforded very general satisfac tion in the City to-day. Hopes are now sanguinely entertained, after so strong a demonstration on the part of the Lower House of Parliament, that the Lords will not waste much time in carrying into effect the determined intentions of her Majesty's G,,vernment. At the present moment such is the intensity of feeling in commercial circles for a final settlement of the corn question, that operations in the foreign and colonial trade have been very much cramped ; but with a majority of 98, as voted this morning, business transactions have already increased, under the full expectation that, within a month at least, the corn question will be finally disposed of. It is not considered an uninteresting fact that the French Ministry stand as strong as that of Sir R. Peel's, as this day's news from Paris show that Ministers there, upon a grand point, had a full ma jority of 85, and this too against the aid of N. Thiers, in con nexion with the La Plata question. The features in the Bank of England monetary movement during the week, to Saturday last, were these : Notes issued .. £27,244,995 Increase .. 172,700 Rest Increase Public deposits, increase Other deposits 16,256,526 Decrease 523,854 Seven day and other bills, increase 15,687 Other securities, decrease 167,123 Bullion Increase ... 146,339 The public deposits, therefore, are now taking a turn again, the other securities are being lessened, and the notes increased. The Stock Market has not been influenced by the third reading of the Corn Bill, as it was pretty well " discounted," or reckoned upon, beforehand. Consols have been 96% : 3 4 for next week, and 96% d/ 4 for time. Exchequer-bills have been heavy, at 235. to 20s. premium. Bank Stock has realised 204% to 205%. The New Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 97!,4 to %. Mexican Bonds have receded from 33 to 32 1 4, but there have only been about one or two bargains. Brazil Stock is worth 84 to 83%. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been quoted at 58%. There is not much doing in Shares, but the few bargains entered into have been at previous rates generally, except for the French scrips, which are heavy. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

Wiliam Howse, alias Vows, aged 32, was indicted for feloniously killing and slaying David Emu - lons. Mr. Ballantine appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Ituddlestono attended for the defence. _ _ It appeared that on the evening of the 22d of April a quarrel arose between some labourers, who met in the house of the prisoner in Stratford, and the deceased was dragged out of doors by a man named Lancaster, another person, named Wilcox, and the prisoner. When outside the door, the scuffling continued, and the deceased and Wilcox fell. 'While on the ground prisoner kicked the deceased on the nose, and the blood gushed from it. He rolled off the man Wil cox, who afterwards picked him up, and after some further strug gling, the deceased was persuaded to go home. The kick inflicted a great gadi on the nose. The surgeon (Mr. Baker) attended the de ceased, but In about a week after he was attacked by lock jaw, and notwithstanding every medical attention was given, he died. He would not swear that lock jaw was positively the result of the wound, but he thought it the probable cause. One witne s deposed that some time before the quarrel the prisoner threatened to injure the deceased by fair means or foul. . _ LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY. Mr. Jusiice COLTMAN intimated that there was no case for the jury, and the prisoner was discharged. A HALILT ON THE POLICE.— Wi!liana Ragan, an Irish absentee of a peculiarly forbidding aspect, was placed at the bar, charged with feloniously wounding Francis White, a policeman, while he was in the execution of his duty. ➢lr. Bodkin and Mr. Clerk conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Baldwin attended for the defence. LONDON, MAT 16.—Wind N.E., light breeezes and cloudy. Francis White, 103 11, said that on the night of the 19th of April he heard n cry in New street, Whitechapel, and on running there he found the prisoner, who was beating constable 185. The prisoner had a policeman's staff in his hand, and when witness went in to his companion's rescue, he received a blow from behind with a staff, which stunned him and caused the blood to flow profusely. He re covered, and received a second blow from the prisoner on the fore head, which struck him down insensible. When he recovered he found himself leaning against some area railings, and heard the pri soner say to some of his friend?, " Throw the b- over the rail inv." The prisoner was taken into custody, and witness was sup ported to the station-house. Ile was afterwards under the care of the surgeon for nearly three weeks. He was positive that the blow on the brow was strnck by the prisoner. He could not say who struck the first blow on the side of his head. Police-constable 198 II said, that on the night in question there was a great disturbance in Sugarloaf-court, Commercial-street, Com mercial-road. He went there to quell it, and took a man named Dennis Ragan into custody. When in New-street, the prisoner was attempted to be rescued, and two policemen (one of whom was the last witness, White) came to his assistance. Ile saw White struck by a man named Sullivan in the first instance, and also a blow given by the prisoner on the forehead. Both blows were struck with a policeman's ft - andiron. Mr. BALDWIN, having addressed the jury for the prisoner, Mr. Baron ALDERSON summed up, and the jury, after retiring for some time, returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty.

Ricketts and Daniel Johnson, two young men, aged about 18, were indicted for stealing 19 live tame fowls, the pmperty of Wil liam Leeson, Brixton. Mary Bishop, servant to the prosecutor, saw the fowls on the afternoon of the 13th of April, all safe and well ; but, about nine o'clock the same evening a policeman called at the house, and, in consequence of what he said, she went out VI examine the hen house, and found it empty, and all the fowls gone. The witness identified two of the fowls produced in Court as the property of her master. George Weston, policeman, said lie was on duty about nine o'clock that night, and saw the prisoners come out of Leeson'. premises, Picketts with a bag under his arm, and Jonnson with a bag on his shoulder. Ile suspect,' "pm, and followed both and took them Into custody ; when, in the bag which Ricketts carried, were found eight fowls, and seven in that carried by Johnson, besides two fowls in the arms of each. They were both found guilty, and Ricketts was sentenced to four months' imprisonment, and hard labour ; and as Johnson had been convicted before for alike offence, lie was sentenced to one year's im prisonment, and hard labour. John Edwards and John Botsford, were placed at the bar, indicted for stealing 5t lbs. of lead, the property of William Cubitt and Co., the masters of Botsford. Mr. Cubitt's foreman said, in consequence of suspicion excited in his mind, by hearing that something not right was going on, he went down on Saturday morning, the 19th April, to the Privy Council buildings, Downing-street, and about seven o'clock saw Botsford un lock the door, and let the prisoner Edwards out, when he had them both taken into custody. There was a piece of lead 50 lbs. weight, that produced in Court, found on the person of Edwards, inside his trowsers, and bound to his person by a body belt. Police-constable 182 A, corroborated the foreman's evidence. Botsford, when taken into custody, said, " This comes of being per suaded." The jury found a verdict of Guilty against both prisoners.

"The Highland Garb" has been admitted by almost universal consent to rank with the very choicest costumes, whether as regards the richness of the materiel or the grace ful arrangement of the drapery; and as universally has it been conceded that within the four seas of Britain is not to be found a caterer so deeply read in the "sets " of the several clan tartans as Mr. Macdougall of Inverness. That gentle man, as appears by an advertisement in another part of our paper, is now in London, where, in order to accommodate the wants of his southern customers, he intends to remain a few days. He has been fortunate enough to secure a copy of the " Vestiarum Scoticum," compiled from the original MS., once belonging to the celebrated John Leslie, Bishop of Ross, and the a d m i rers of the Breadin may therefore rest assured that no modern innovation shall be permitted to interfere with "the checks," which the patronage of her Majesty and her Illustrious Consort have again rendered national.

PERRY, THE BLACK, AND 44 TIIE UNKNOWN."—At Broome's, last night, the appointed meeting, to draw up articles for 2001. aside, took place, when the renowned Bendigo, whose retirement we so recently announced, was, to the surprise of all, and of none more than the sable hero and his friends, declared to be the man whose name should fill the blank in the agreement. To this Perry's backer and friend, Ben Caunt, strenuously objected, on the ground that at the time of posting the ten pounds, to make the match, Bendy was, by his own public declarations, understood to be out of the question. His right to another " last appearance" was, however, Insisted on, and a forfeit claimed.. After much discussion, Caunt and his sable protege left. This morning, at a further meeting, it was proposed, by Perry's party, to go on with the match on Monde.) next, at Swift's, who holds the money down. Whether the last. named person will consider the cash forfeited, on the ground that Perry undertook to sign and seal on Thursday, remains to be seen. It he does so, the affair must begin de novo. PEDESTRIANISM. EIGHT MILE WALKING MATCH FOR 201. ASIDE.—A smart and well-contested trial of pace took place yesterday morning at a little before nine, at the Old Hat, Ealing, between two amateurs for the above sum. The one competitor was known as Mr. Price, the other by the sobriquet of " Little Dan." From his longitude the first named deserved the title of " High Price," while the other's stature may be assumed from the prefix of his nickname. Price gave his Opponent 50 yards at starting, and both started at excellent speed. Price, however, carried most sail, for he overhauled his antagonist by the close of the second mile. Little Dan struggled on, but could not reduce the Price to par, and at the close lie was at a premium of 100 yards. That the speed would not have done discredit to flrst rate professionals may be gathered from the tact that the eight miles was walked by the winner in one hour, 30 minutes, nine seconds. The stakes will be given up onTuesday evening next. .RaorcaL EVENTS.—LEICESTER.—On Monday even ing, a drayman, named James Tee, was driving his dray, being seated on an empty skip, when ihe horse started, and the skip over turning, threw him off, and the wheels passing over him, he was killed immediately. —On Wednesday morning, a man named Jays, a jobber, employed at Mr. Robinson's wool-warehouse, cut his throat, but did riot immediately effect his purpose, and was alive, though in imminent danger, on Thursday. Some time previous he had fallen through a trap-door from a great height, injuring his kidneys, and causing him much pain; and it was supposed that, through the spine, his brain had been affected.—On the same morning, a smith, employed by Mr. Chapman, worsted spinner, after being out in the night, drink ing, complained of pain in the head, and died suddenly.—On Thurs day morning, the driver of a fly, who had been with a wedding party, quarrelled about the toll, with the keeper, named Wheatley, aged 70, the keeper of the Thunnastou toll-gate, and struck him on the face. The old man died soon after, and the driver was secured.—On Thursday evening, the body of a well-dressed man was found in Knighton-lane, near the town, with his throat cut, and a razor lying by. SERIOUS ACCIDENT BY MACHlNERY.—Yesterday morning a serious accident occurred at the cork factery of Mr. Morris, in Mason-street, Westminster-bridge-road. A lad of about fifteen years of age, employed on the premises, called only by the name of "Flora," had incautiously entered the engine-room, whick he had no right to do, and had not been many seconds there when a portion of his apron got caught in the machinery, and drew him into the Storks. He sustained a severe contusion of the hip, and a dreadful laceration of both thighs. Fortunately there was attached to the machinery a regulator, by which, on the slightest pressure or obstruction, the engine is stopped, other Wise the Unfortunate lad must have been torn to pieces. As it is, the iiiittries he hat received are of a serious character, anti he Was removed to the Westminster Hospital. bEATiI OF MR.

On the morning of the Sth instant the fire broke out, and destroy ed the stock in trade, fixtures, and other effects, belonging to Mrs. Brown, the occupier. At the time of the disaster there were Mrs. Brown and her female servant sleeping on the premises. Both parties having made their escape, they were taken to the Red Lion Tavern, where they were provided with a bed. On the morning of last Saturday, on the servant awaking, she was astonished at finding her mistress hanging by the neck to the bedstead. It was afterwards asserted that the deceased had wilfully set the premises on fire, with Intent to defraud the insurance office. A communication having been made to the City Coroner, that gentleman at once ordered a Jury to by, summoned. Amongst numerous witnesses, Mrs. Elizabeth Shear down, of No. 2, Pemberton-row, said that she had known the de ceased during the time she resided on the premises.

The Court of Proprietors was specially summoned yester day to confirm the annuities to Viscount Hardinge and Lord GOugh, as unanimously agreed to on the 13th instant. The Chairman (Mr. Hogg, M.P.), presided, and the proceedings of the last Court were cor,firmed. The CHaihmax said, that after the feeling expressed at the last meeting he need not make any observations, except calling upon the clerk to read the resolutions now brought forward for the proprietor's consideration. " At a general Court of the East India Company, held on Friday, the 15th of May, 1846, "Resolved unimously,—That this Court confirm the re solution of the 13th instant, approving the unanimous reso lution of the Court of Directors of the 29th ult., granting to Lieutenant-General the Right Hon. Viscount Hardinge, Knight Grand Cross of the most Honourable Military Order of the Bath, an annuity of five thousand pounds (5,0001.), upon the grounds, and in the manner therein stated, subject to the approbation of the Right Hon. the Board of Com• missioners for the affairs of India.

The CHAIRMAN considered it would not be necessary to read the contents of the Bill to be passed.

The DEPUTY-CHAIRMAN seconded the motion.—(Cheers.) Sir P. LAURIE agreed with the resolution proposed, and he hoped to see statues placed in that room to the gallant men who had so nobly supported the interests of their country. A PROPRIETOR hoped that the great services of Sir H. Smith would not be passed over. After a few remarks from Mr. Fielder, Major Randall, Mr. Weeding, and others, the resolutions were unanimously con firmed. THE FORTUNES OF TURLOGH O'BRIEN. Part H. What we specified as the failing of this writer, when noticing the first number of his fiction, we are impelled by justice to repeat on a perusal of its continuation. The deseriptions are marred by over-embellishment ; every patch of light cast by the sunset is noted down with a distressing scrupulosity ; the characters of the tale always think of, and speak to, one another in a su perlative manner. The heroines are not " beautiful," they are " celestial" or " angelic ;" the villains are not " unprincipled," they are hell-born " miscreants," and so on in a like fashion. If the author of " Turlogh O'Brien" had a lily, he would paint it; if he had gold, he would daub it with gilding. It is an unfortunate pro pensity. It is destroying by repletion. As absurd would it be for a sculptor to delineate on a statue every separate thread woven into the linen. Unless the writer modifies his style, he will destroy a very agreeable novel. Jeremiah Tindal promises well as a questionable kind of actor ; but of his ragged visitor we can make nothing whatever. The attack upon Glindarragh Castle wilt bring the story to an interesting crisis ; but we trust the author will previously forsake his ornate diction. RAILWAY RETURNS.
