IRELAND. DM:MI:4 Nov. 30.—The usual weekly meeting of the Repeal Association was held this day at Conciliation Hall. Among the members present were Mr. O'Conntit, M. P., Mr. J. O'Connell, M.P., Capt. Broderick, &c, At one o'clock, on the motion of Mr. O'Connell, the chair was taken by Mr. Ambrose T.C. The Secretary having read the. minutes o° the last meeting, Mr. 01 'Corclenue rose to haru'l in the - subscriptions of himself and sons for the raceath of December, and in doing so said he would take t:he opportunity of mention ing that the tenth audit of the accounts of the Associa tion had just taken plf_tce.—(Etear, hear.) It had lately been coml:4l3ted, and a balance struck, which he was sorry to say • ffas 'al his favour, for it appeared that the Association , owed him 971. los. 9d.—(Cheers.) It was their t' AA. audit, and Mr. Ray, the Secre tary, was, as =nal, ready to show the accounts to any member who , wished to see them, even from the begin ning, if th ey choose ; and he would venture to assert, and challe ,ege denial, that no mercantile house in the city coulel boast of clearer accounts ; be would challenge even. - tire Bank of Ireland. It had been said that they destroyed all the vouchers after each audit. Now, he w i f lied to say, that there never was a greater untruth, as the fact was, that every item, to the amount of thr ee ha'ifpence, was vouched, and the vouchers retained—so that they amounted at that moment to 73,348. — (Cheers.) All those documents wens to be seen posted in books, and numbered and dated, and easily referred to. That was all he had to say as to the accounts. He would not say more, and he could not say less ; and lie would not have gone so far, were 'it not better that the public should know these facts. (Hear, hear.) Having cleared his conscience on this subject, he (Mr. O'Connell) would proceed to clear it regarding an other matter. (Hear, hear.) The Evening Mail, and other Tory papers, had lately alleged that he was giving up Repeal ; and in proof of their assertion ma to his being a traitor, they had stated that he 'was invited to a - dinner at the Reform Club some time lack, and refused to go if "Repeal" was not drunk, — (Loud cries of " Hear")—and that lately he dined there —(Hear)—when it was not drunk.—(Hear, hear.) Now, this was another gross falsehood of the Tory press, and be would explain the facts as they really existed. There were two dinners proposed to be given by the club— one a dinner to him (Mr. O'Connell) and the other an ordinary house dinner ; to the former of which he re fused to go, if "Repeal" was not drank ; but as to the latter, he, of course, could make no stipulation.—(Hear, hear.) He refused to go to the only dinner offered to himself, unless " Repeal was a toast ; for no entertain ment would be a compliment to him if it was not dran k. —(Hear.) But at the other dinner he could not give it, because he only presided in the absence of the Lord Mayor, and because there were several persons present in whose presence it could not be introduced. The Learned Gentleman, in conclusion, handed in 204 from Dean Burke, of Clonmel, and read a long letter from him advocating the moral force doctrines of the association, which he moved for insertion on the minutes. Mr. STEELE seconded the motion, which passed, and in doing so referred to the meeting of the Young In landers advertised to take place on Wednesday evening, and stated that Mr. O'Brien was never flattered by the association whilst a member. Mr. O'CortziELL said he could not but differ from the Head Pacificator, for he felt that he did flatter Mr. O'Brien.—(Hear.) He certainly never calumniated him, but he threw a little too much honey into the water.—(Laughter.) Some more subscriptions having been acknowledged, Mr. O'CorrNm.x. again came forward, for the purpose as he stated, of referring to the late dispute between him and the Times.—(Hear.) That paper, as the pub lic were aware, published a paragraph with regard to his tenantry, atating " that they were starving," which was intended to apply to him, and which he was, of course, obliged to deny.—(Hear, hear.) He denied it in the fullest manner, and the Times left oat his denial from their report, in order to attack him in an article on the following day, in which he was charged with not denying that those unfortunate tena n ts were his.—(Hear.) At the last meeting of the Associa tion he (Mr. O'Connell) had exposed this conduct by referring to the report of his speech in the Freeman's Journal, and to the notes of Mr. Hodges, the Govern ment reporter ; yet, such was the justice of the Times, that it had made no apology for its error. Having said so much, he was now done with the Times, he hoped, for ever , ---(Cheers.) The Learned Gentleman then made Isis usual weekly report from the city registry, by which it appeared that the repeaters were in a majority of 91. Mr. J. CfCoNNELL brought forward the third report from the "Religious Grievance Committee," and, in doing so, made a lengthened speech. The Rev. Mr. WYNNE seconded the adoption of the report. He referred to the Royal Hospital in the Park, and accused the Governor with conducting it in a manner eo as to proselytise the Roman Catholics who were in it. ----Hear.) He also said that of the thirty officers it con tamed there was not a single Roman Catholic; and then called upon the Government to give equal encourage ment to the children of the soldier of one religion as another, by appointing teachers of both creeds.—(Hear.) Mr. STEELE h av i ng ma d e a speech in support of the motion, it was carried. Mr. O'CONNELL then (at three o'clock) came forward to make the speech of the day. He said, that it was their first duty t o d o something to work ut repeal, as they appe are d t h ere as firm, uncompromising repeafers who would con sen t t o no postponement or qualification' of the question. If incidents had occurred which threw them out of the straight struggle, they should be disregarded, and they should, under every circumstance. work for repeal, and nothing less. He (Mr. O'Connell) bad formed that Association, established it upon its great " moral force" basis, and he was as free then to carry out its objects as he was at the beginning, Now, when he said it was their first duty to work out repeal, he was of course obliged to liiten to those wht asked, " what wer e th e i r prospects and resources ?' Bis reply, as to their prospects, was, that they were melancholy, owing to the frightful state of the country, which was in a condition of famine and misery. The Want of food was heard in every district—in fact, suet. Misery, even in unfortunate Ireland, was never known before.—(Hear, hear.) It was natural that they should ask themselves the cause of this misery, and he would answer the question—the Union was the cause of it.— (Cheers.) No one would attempt to assert that the mere failure of the crop of the article of food for a 'single year would canse it, but for the Union, as he *mild show to demonstration. The potato crop of Bel kium had failed during the previous year, but there was xto bad result, for she was a free country, having a Par 116h:tent of her own, and she got over the difficulty in Consequence. There the ports were at once opened to a:apply food. Not so in Ireland, for although misery Ind destitution were stalking through the land, no such tuove was made. Now, in saying this, he (Mr. O'Con nell) did not accuse the Government or the Board of Works with idleness, or negligence, for he knew they had much to do ; but still he could not but feel that Ireland would be in a better condition if she had her own Parliament, because, it would be found that there was no country ever placed in such a position as she was at that moment, as to destitution—destitution which other countries similarly affected did not suffer ; in fact, there was nothing in history which could be looked upon as a parallel, and it was all owing to the Union. If it should happen that an additional infliction should fall upon them next year—if the frost, which had set in, were to continue—what, he would ask, would be the condition of Ireland that day twelve months ? He was almost ho rror - stricken at the v er y id ea o f the food re maining in the country being deetroyed.—(llear, hear.) He sickened a t th e t h ought, yet he did not blame ' the Union for the famine, but he blamed it for having im poverished the country to such an extent that the Irish people were deprived of the power which the Belgians had of supporting themselves. The Learned Gentle man then went on to quote the speeches of Lord Clare and Mr. Pitt on the question of the Union ; and next proceeded to refer to the Young Icelanders, whom be said, were all guilty of high treason ; for, professing themselves as the advocates of " physical force." They bad compared themselves to the "Literary Phalanx " of France—and what was that Phalanx composed of ? --(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. O'Connell) would tell them : it was composed of three infidels, who had even gone to the extent of burning the library of the archbishop ; but the Young Irelanders had fortunately no library to burn, unless they went to the College ; and if they did it Was more likely the parties would have to resort to their own favourite weapon, physical force, and kick them out—(Cheers.) What was their physical force com posed of ? The Nation. Mr. ST EELE _- There organ. Mr. 0 Comma. said the Nation was only a barrel or gan, and a very bad one. In conclusion the Honourable Gentleman announced his intention of bringing on the question of repeal in the Dublin Corporation, and calling on all the municipal bodies to adopt the same course. Re anticipated the best possible result from this line of pro ceeding. The rent for the week amounted to 461. 14s. sd. THE DEATHS FROM STARVATION AT SRIBBERREIT. The inquest on the bodies of the . three men repo r t e d to have died of starvation, were held in the Court-house of Skibbereen on Thursday, before the coun ty coroner and a respectable jury, and the result certainly goes to substantiate the charge of neglect so frequently urged against the Board of Works. After a patient investiga tion, the jury brought the following verdict :—" W . e find that deceased, Denis .Bohane, died on the 11th ma stant, on the road at Drishane, from want of food, occa sioned by hi s no t h av i ng rece i ve d th e fortn i ght 's wages due to him on the Tragumina-road." EXTRAORDINARY BLUNDER IN THE CAMBRIDGE REGISTER.—The Register of Electors of this borough for the next year was published yesterday, and we un derstand that a most serious blunder has been made by the omission from the Register of the names of no less than 49 persons who made their claims to be placed thereon at the last registration, and whose claims were allowed by the revising barrister. The number we have mentioned is composed or 27 Liberals and 22 Tories. We are unable at present to ascertain who is in fault in the matter ; but whether it be the revising barrister or any other person, most serious responsibility rests some where for this wholesale disfranchisement, and the mat ter demands (what we doubt not it will obtain) the most rigid in vestigation. If th e l aw prov i des any means of o bt a ining compensation in such a case we think that those parties who took the trouble to make their claims and neglected their business for the purpose of attending the Revising Barrister's Court to support th em , an d fectly justifi e d i n whose exertion s are now utterly fruitl ess , w ill b e per pable party, b e he ta w k h in o g m t r e oceedings against the cul tiier. naay.—Cambride HEE MAJESTY'S CONCERT Roars. —,M r , and M rs.

'ver- GER SIGNAL. RAILWAY GUNPOWDER - DAN Prom 2, Parliamentary volume, forming Appendix No. 3 of the Report of the Officers of the Rail ay Depart ment to the Lords of the Committee of P ivy Council for Trade, and just printed for Parliament, the following quotation is made, being a letter from Major-General Pasley to the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, recommending that a circular hould be sent to railway companies, suggesting the adoption of a new danger signal by means of gunpowder:— "My Lords,—Two fatal accidents, which it was my duty to inquire into, having occurred within the space of thirteen months, in both of which one railway Ltrain, detained beyond its proper time, was run into by another train, causing the death of a passenger in one case, and of an engine-man in the other, notwithstanding that the usual precaution had been taken of sending a man back from the train that was delayed with a red lantern as a signal of danger, to meet and stop the approaching train, not only by this signal, but also by calling out to the engine-man. In both cases this caution proved ineffectual, as the men sent back were neither heard, nor were their red lanterns seen, by the engine-men of the approaching trains. In fact, I have myself observed, more than once, that it is impossible for the engine-man or fireman of a railway train in motion to hear a person calling to him, even from a very short distance, especially when the train is passing under a tunnel, which causes a louder rattling noise than in the open air. •' I therefore beg leave to bring under your Lordships' notice a very ingenious arrangement adopted on the London and Birmingham Railway, as a fog or danger signal at the suggestion of Mr. Cowper, son of the King's College professor of that name. This con sists in sending a man back to place a small flat circu lar tin box, containing a charge of gunpowder, mixed with a little fulminating powder, on the line of rails by which the next train is advancing, which box has two leaden fangs attached to it for clasping the rail, which at other times are doubled flat down upon the box to save room. As soon as the wheel of the locomotive engine of the approaching train passes over this box, it fires the charge, with an explosion sufficiently loud to be heard in the moss stormy night, or in going through a tunnel, but not powerful enough to injure the rails or the wheels of the engine. Under the circumstances supposed, this arrange ment, as a signal of danger or caution, is preferable to a red light by night, or in a tunnel, because no neglect or inatten tion on the part of the engineman or fireman of the coming train can render it possible for them to pass without being aware of the explosion, which cannot fail to take place, and on hearing which it would be their duty to atop. The best way of proceeding would be for the man sent back to carry a red light also, and after placing his explosion signal-box on the rail to return part of the way from whence he came, and remain there with his red light to meet the train on stopping, and to explain to the engineman whatever may be necessary. "I shall conclude by observing that I am fully per suaded that the more perfect system of danger-signal just described, if generally adopted on railways, may be the means of saving lives hereafter ; and therefore, I request, should your Lordships concur in this opinion, that you will be pleased to call the attention of the Di rectors of railway companies to the subject by a circular letter.—l have, &c. " C. W. PASLEY, Major-General. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY. OPENING of the RAILWAY from RAMSGATE to MARGATE. On Tuesday the South-Eastern Company's branch line from Ramsgate to Margate was opened for passenger traffic. A special train, conveying Mr..M'Gregor, Chair man of the South-Eastern Company, Viscount Torring ton, Mr. Pritchard, and other directors, left the Brick layers' Arms station at a quarter before eleven A.M., for Margate. The station at Ramsgate was hung with flags in honour of the occasion, and several additional car riages with passengers having been attached to the train, it proceeded onwards to Margate. The length of the line thus opened to the public is about 34 miles, con sisting of only a single line of rail. At Margate the event was celebrated as a general holiday, almost every shop in the town being closed. The directors, on their arrival, were received by Mr. Deputy Cobb and some of the principal inhabitants, who acted as stewards of the day. A procession of carriages, containing the direc tors, &c. was formed at the railway station, which, headed by a band of music and flags, moved on the York Hotel, The streets and windows and balconies of the houses on the line of route were filled with ladies, who welcomed the procession by waving their handkerchiefs, and other tokens of satisfaction. A triumphal arch, formed of evergreens, was also erected, and this at night was tastefully illuminated. At fire o'clock the directors and their friends were entertained by the inhabitants at the Assembly Rooms, where about 200 persons sat down to a sumptuous din ner, Mr. Deputy Cobb filled the chair, and was sup ported by Mr. M`Gregor, Lord Torrington, Mr. Bodkin, M.P., - the Right Hon. S. R. Lushington, Rev. W. E. Hoskins, &c. Mr. M`Gregor, in returning thanks for the toast of the South-Eastern direction, said the Com pany had spent a quarter of a million of money in Par liamentary contests, in which they were endeavouring to obtain direct lines for Margate and other places. Parliament had already intrusted them with the con struction of a line from London to Rcchester, a portion of which would be in the contractor's hands on the 12th instant. The directors were now seeking for powers to continue the line from Rochester to Chilham, which would not only shorten the distance between London and Margate by twenty miles, but would also bring the inhabitants cf the latter town in communication with a population of 200,000 souls at the other end of the county. The company's branch line from Minster to Deal would be opened in February next; in about twelve months they would have a line to Rye; and in about eighteen months they would have a continuous communi cation from Margate to Hastings. After the proceedings of the dinner were concluded, a special train left Margate at a quarter to ten o'clock, which arrived in London at ten minutes past one o'clock ye-,terday morning. The day was exceedingly favourable, and the arrange ments made by the stewards at Margate for the recep tion of their guests, both in the procession and at the dinner, were of the most complete and spirited character.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A very serious system of plunder was a few days ago detected by mere accident. A policeman observed a drunken man in King-street, Cheapside, on Wednesday evening last, with a parcel under each arm ; and, find ing that he was un a bl e t o ta k e care o f himsef, took him into custody, and from that circumstance arose an inves tigation which led to the apprehension of two persons in the employment of extensive tradesmen in the city. Yesterday Hugh Roberts and William Marshall were placed at the bar, the former charged with having robbed his employer, Mr. Evans, of No. 131, Cheapside, of bandanas and other handkerchiefs, to a very con siderable amount, and the latter charged with having received the goods, well knowing that they had been stolen. Mr. Humphrey appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Hobler attended for the prisoner Marshall. George Todd (City policeman 709) stated that on Wednesday evening be took a man named Upson, whom he found drunk in the street, to the station-house, in Bow-lane, and found the black handkerchief with white spots produced upon him. Upson was subsequently ad mitted as evidence against the two prisoners at the bar. Mr. Evans, of No. 131, Cheapside, warehouseman, stated that the prisoner, Roberts, was in his service. On Thursday last, Everett, a policeman, called upon him, and, in consequence of a communication which took place between them, he went to speak to Roberts, who was then in th e ware h ouse . H av i ng s h own to Roberts the handkerchief alluded to, he said that a man, was in custody about it, that prisoner said " I may as well con fess to you that I have taken a piece of handkerchiefs. Yau may as well prosecute me, for I am tired of my life. I have not had a moment's peace for some years." Wit ness asked him if he was sure that he had not taken any thing else, to which he replied, that he had taken nothing else. John Upson, of No. 88, Queen-street, Cheapside, stated that he had been in the warehouse of Messrs. Swan and Pearce of St. Paul's Church-yard, as porter for thirteen or fourteen years. He had known Roberts for several years. The handkerchief produced had been taken from him by a policeman. (The three other handkerchiefs were produced.) He bought the whole of these handkerchiefs from Roberts, about two months Ago, for 3s. 9d. each. (A shawl handkerchief produced had been also bought by him from the same person about twelve months ago.) Everett, policeman (63) deposed as to the admissions made by Roberts, and stated that he afterwards went to Messrs. Swan and Pearce's, where he received from Mr. Swan three handkerchiefs, which corresponded with that found upon Upton. Sophia Smith, housemaid at Messrs. Swan and Pearce's, stated the' she had given to Mr. Swan the three handkerchiefs produced, which she had taken from a drawer in the kitchen, and which she had deposited there at the request of Upson. Mr. John Marston, clerk to the prosecutor, stated that after Roberts was in custody he went to the Bull's Head Inn, Wood -street, where Roberts lodged, and having heard the name of Marshall, the other prisoner, mentioned, he went to the houso of Mr. Slater, in whose service Marshall was. He there saw Marshall, who, in answer to questions, said that he knew Hugh Roberts, and had purchased goods of him, for which he had bills of parcels and receipts. Upon being told to produce the papers, he appeared to be going to do so, but he halted, and said he had not got them. He stated that he had purchased of Roberts to the amount of about 1001. in black silk handkerchiefs and printed bandana handker chiefs. Witness took Marshall to the station-house, but before he went away he said he considered it a privilege he had to buy or sell goods. At the station-house Marshall was searched, and, amongst other papers found upon him, was a small label, with the names of " James and Ferdinand Jackson" upon it, who were persons for whom Mr. Evans sold in com mission. Witness did not exactly know what Marshall said, but he seemed to justify himself as if possessed of the privilege of buying or selling for himself. In Mar shall's lodgings were found some handkerchiefs of the de scription sold by Mr. Evans, and which witness believed to be his property. Mr. Hobler—ls it not usual for persons in the situa tion of the prisoner Marshall to buy to sell again? Wit ness—l should say not. Mr. Hobler—Do not other houses permit their ser vants to do so? Witness—Other houses may allow it, for what I know, but it is not to my knowledge by any means the practice. Mr. Hobler said Mr. Slater, in whose employment Marshall had been for some time, was present, and ready to give him an excellent character. Mr. Slater having entered the witness-box, The Loan MAYoR said to him —Do you, Mr. Slater, allow Marshall to buy or sells goods on his own ac count? Mr. Slater—No, but when I engaged him he said he had been selling goods on his own account. The LORD MAYOR—Did you forbid him to do so? Mr. Slater—Certainly; but seeing that he appeared to live above his means I intended to get rid of him. The proceedings here account for that. The LORD MAYOR observed that Mr. Slater's testi mony told against Marshall. Inspector .Woodruffe, who searched Marshall in the station- house, produced the label of the house alluded to for which Mr. Evans sold on commission, and con firmed the evidence of Mr. Marston, as to the acknow ledgment of Marshall that he had bought goods to the amount of 1001. from Roberts. The inspector also stated that Marshall said he sometimes met Roberts in the street, and sometimes at the Bull's Head pnblic house, and sometimes he gave orders and received the goods in the street, sometimes in one place and some times in, another. Roberts, who was undefended, said he had nothing to say. The LORD MAYOR said the evidence disclosed a sys tem of robbery, by servants, of a most atrocious kind. It was evident that the plunder had been going on for a considerable time, and by a sort of contrivance which was calculated to enable those engaged to enrich themselves at the ruinous expense of their greatest benefactors. Mr. Marston stated that considerable deficiencies had occurred upon taking stock within the last two or three years. _ Mr. nobler submitted that there was no identity as to the goods, and that Marshall's conduct had been open and undisguised, and betrayed no consciousness of abrl Marshall ll therel u w m wa p sa l I sa r e rn y e co s te s eu d ri t i e t i n w e was enough o gf r ho a u lt os jury trsaa tt t ai o sgf d ye m e e t i hf d oe e rm , guilt. whe ther iv t ha plun dering the prosecutor. The LORD MAY OR , _I • satisfied that the case am quite of Marshall, as well as of Roberts, must go to a jury and I commit both prisoners for trial. W ORSHIP-STREET. A portly, respectable-looking man, named John Philip TVestern, described as a g entleman, and residing at Frimley, in S urrey, was placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged with having committed an unprovoked and violent assault upon a respectable young woman named Mary Mackintosh, living with her married sister , in Buck's row, Whi t echapel. It appeared from the statement of the complainant, a delicate-looking person, whose eye was much swollen and discoloured, that between three and four o'clock that morning she was hastening to procure the attendance of the family surgeon for her sister, who had been su Idenly taken with the pains of labour, but had scarcely gone 20 yards from the door when she was met by the defen dant, who, without uttering a word, seized her by the shoulders, and shaking her violently, threw her heavily upon the pavement. Re then commenced kicking her in a savage manner, and as she attempted to rise struck her a violent blow in the face, which again knocked her down and rendered her insensible. On recovering her consciousness she f,uwl the defendant in the custody of a constable, It ho appeared to have witnessed the trans action, and by whom he veae at one() conveyed to tho police-station. Police-constable 254 IC deposed to having seen the complainant thrown down in the manner she had de icribcd, and iastautly hilsoned to her adigolauce, but was too late to save her from the second attack which was made upon her, and on reaching the spot found the young woman lying upon the pavement, apparently stunned, from which a considerable time elapsed before she sufficiently recovered to be able to go to the station house and establish the charge. When called upon for his answer, the defendant, with great coolness, declared that the transaction originated entirely in a misapprehension on his part, as he had mistaken the complainant for a woman of the same class who had just before left his company after rob bing him of his ring and purse, and expressed his readi ness to make the complainant any pecuniary recompense the magistrate might suggest for the treatment she had received. Sergeant Graves informed the Bench that there was no foundation whatever for the insinuation the defendant had cast upon the character of the complainant, whom he had ascertained to be a person of unblemished repu tation, and to reside, as she had stated, with her brother in-law, a man of property and respectability. The complainant here intimated that, in consequence of the delicate state of her sister's health, notwithstand • ing the unwarrantable ill-treatment she had sustained, it was with the greatest reluctance she had come forward at all in the matter, and hoped therefore that the magis trate would himself dispose of the case, as it would oc casion her the greatest inconvenience and annoyance to attend elsewhere to prosecute. Mr. BINGHAM said that he regretted his powers were far too limited to deal with a case of such a description, and he should therefore certainly carry them out to the utmost extent, by ordering the defendant to pay the maximum amount of penalty he was able to impose, namely, 5/. to the Queen, or, in default of so doing, he must stand committed to the House of Correction for two months. Mr. Broughton requests us to acknowledge his re ceipt of a letter from Lady Fraser, of the Manor House, Exmouth, enclosing a contribution of a sovereign for the relief of a poor man named Michael Halliday, of Milton-street, Cripplegate, the particulars of whose sin gular case we mentioned upon a former occasion. Her Ladyship requested that the safe arrival of her contribu tion might be noticed in the papers. THE MURDER BY POISONING. SUDBURY, DEC. I.—ln The Sun of Monday last was a notice of an inquest held on the previous Friday, at Acton, near this town, on the body of John Foster, who was deelared by the verdict of the jury to have been wilfully poisoned by his wife, Catherine Foster, three weeks after marriage. By many it was thought that the evidence was far from being conclusive against the woman, and that it did not warrant the returningof such a verdict. Since then, however, disclosures have been made which tend to strengthen the presumption that the poison was intentionally administered to the deceased by his young wife. The coroner, Mr. Wayman, met the jury yesterday for the purpose of having the usual criminal inquisition document signed by the jury, when the superintendent of police intimated to the Court that the boy Morley, a brother of the accused, who had been examined at the previous investigations, was in posses. sion of more facts in reference to the death of the de ceased than he had stated at the former inquiries. It should be mentioned that at the last meeting of the jury this lad made it appear that his sister only made one dumpling on the night the deceased wes taken ill, of which he ate part with his sister. On the boy being re called, the coroner proceeded to examine him in very pointed terms, and it was elicited from him that on the evening his sister's husband was taken ill she made " two" dumplings. She gave one of them to her hus band, and the other she ate with witness. The one they had between them was a little one, and was made of the rubbings of the pan, of which deceased did not partake. He added that when the deceased came home from work he and his sister had nearly finished their supper. After the deceased was taken ill and had been put to bed. his sister desired him to say that he had ate the same victuals as the deceased had. It was to please his'sister that he had stated that he bad ate of the same dumpling as the deceased had ; that was bis reason for telling such an untruth. Neither he nor his sister had any of the dumpling the deceased ate. The deceased asked him to have a piece, but his sister said he should not, and he had not. The CORONER directed the boy to be placed under 1,12 e surveillance of the police of the district, it being evident that he had been tampered with to a considerable extent. It was with much difficulty, and after great reluctance on the boy's part, that the above important facts were elicited from him. Mary Ann Chivery, a fresh witness, was called. She said she was a single woman, and lived with her grand father at Acton, next door to the house in which the deceased resided. She remembered that on the day after his death, while the surgeons were opening his body, Catherine Foster, the deceased's wife, came into the house and sat down. On coming in she said the doctors were going to open John's body, and she could not bear the thoughts of being within. She asked if she might sit there while they were doing it ? and on being told that she might, sat down on a chair by the fire. After staying some time she observed to witness, "If I had gone to Bury before I married I would not have married him at all." A sister of this witness deposed to the same facts. The inquisition was then duly signed, and the jury dismissed. As yet it is difficult to arrive at a motive that could have induced the accused to destroy her hus band. As before stated, she had been married to him only three week exactly on the day of his death. She is not 18 years of age, her appearance is somewhat good looking, but very simple. Her countenance pourtrays not the slightest hardihood, or anything indicating her to be a person likely to commit such a crime. On being informed by the coroner of the verdict of the jury, she seemed not the least affected by it, and on leaving the room merely said, " She was sure she did not do it." CHASE EXTRAORDINARY.—On Monday last a smart looking sailor, named John Rees, was charged with hav ing deserted his wife and family, leaving them charge able to the parish of St. Peter. A warrant which had been issued for his apprehension was entrusted to the care of police-constable Frederick Rees for execution. Accordingly the constable proceeded to Llanelly, but the fugitive had heard of his pursuer, and took to flight. A search was made, but John Rees was nowhere to be found, and Frederick Rees, nothing daunted, prepared to renew the search in another quarter. Having obtained the assistance of a constable of the Rural Police Force. Rees proceeded to the harbour, where they were in formed that the runagate had taken shelter in a vessel. They immediately commenced searching the hold, but could discover no trace whatever of him. Loath to give up the search, Frederick Rees gave one " last lingering look" over the vessel, and keenly scanned its various appointments, when 10l high amongst the rigging " suspended in mid-air," was observed the marital fugi tive. Up mounts the constable, and higher up mounts the lost husband—lost to all sense of his shame. Frede rick, however, soon found that he was no match for John at climbing, and therefore determined to circum vent him by a ruse de guerre. Giving the other police man the wink, that worthy functionary mounted the rigging on the other side, and so the sailor got hemmed in. Notwithstanding, however, that he was thus held at bay, he was still unapproachable, for the policemen were unable to progress further up the rigging. At length one of them taking advantage of the dusk of the evening, drew his truncheon from his pocket, and level ling it at the sailor as if it was a pistol, vowed he would blow his brains out if he did not surrender. Terrified at the threat, the sailor yielded, and was consigned forth with to durance vile, and then conveyed to Carmarthen. and brought before the mayor, who reprimanded him severely, and sent him to the House of Correction for a month, telling him that if he was again charged with a similar offence, he should have three months' imprison met.—Cornwall Legal Gaze*. CASE Or rue REV. DR. COTTLE.—MOSt of our Somerset readers are probably aware that tor some weeks past a rumour has been in circulation of a nature extremely prejudicial to the character of the reve• rend gentleman above-named. In consequence of its existence, application was made by him to the bishop of this diocese that a commission might be issued, to inquire into the grounds of the charges alleged against him. A commission was, therefore, issued, and the inquiry commenced in the grand jury room, Taunton, on Monday. The commissioners were the Venerable Archdeacon Brymer, chairman ; Rev. P. W. Thomas, Rev. F. B. Portman, Rev. J. Lance. and A. G. Lethbridge, Esq. Mr. Prideaux appeared for Mr. Davies, the nominal promoter in the case— attorney, Mr. W. Pinchard ; and Mr. Sergeant King lake and Mr. Stone for the defence—attorneys, Messrs. Reeves. Dr. Cottle was present in his gown during the whole of the proceedings. The Court being declared to be a private one, we are unable to give parti culars of the case. But we believe we are justified in stating that the witnesses for the promoters of the in quiry clearly proved that the Rev. Dr. Cottle could not have been guilty of the charge preferred against him. Most of the witnesses supporting the case were of the most abandoned and infamous character, and their evidence was one mass of contradictions. At the con clusion of the case for the promoters, Mr. Sergeant lianglake made a powerful speech, of three hours' dura tion, and stated that it was not his intention to call any of the witnesses for Dr. Cottle (there were upwards of twenty waiting to be examined). The commissioners then withdrew, and, after delibersing for a few minutes, returned into court, which was opened to the public, and declared that they were of opinion that there was not sufficient evidence to justify them in reporting to the Bishop that there were prima facie grounds for further proceedings. The rev. doctor then retired, with a cha racter unblemished by these proceedings, amid the con gratulations of his friends.—Somerset County Gazette. A SINGULAR FACT..--A clergyman in Lincoln shire, in the course of his s ermon one Sunday afternoon, ternoon, took occasion to explain a text of Scripture which bore ti upon of i the ts subject gi ving anin ; and after his interpreta on meg, he said he wished, however, to state to his h earers that commentators did no t agree with him, b u t nevertheless he was confidnt he t was right. The next morninge, whilst at breakf as t, h with his wif e an d family, was somewhat sur prised to see f rom hi s window a worthy small farmer in his parish coming up the walk in front of his house with a large sack on his beck; and going to the door to iyquir. the cause of this early and singular call, the good farmer accosted him in the following ter ms: —" W hy, Sir, you said in you r sermon yesterday, that common taters did'nt agree with you, and so I have brought you some fine d kidney taters, whi c h I t hi nk will suit your urhonour an d agree with you too."—Lincoln Paper.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA HOUSE, The preparations for the rebuilding of the interior of Covent-garden Theatre commenced at day-break or Tuesday, and before the evening had set in the facade in Bow-street was completely inclosed. The alterations and improvements in the edifice will form a complete revolution. The new proprietors have selected the plans of Benedict Albano, Esq., Civil Engineer, and these plans have been duly submitted to and received the approval of the official referees under the Metropo litan Buildings Act. As the present interior is to be entirely removed, and the theatre is to be considerably enlarged, it has been resolved that no expense shall be spared to render it one of the most elegant and con venient lyrical establishments now in existence. In every sense of the word, the new Royal Italian Opera House is to be made a great Temple of Art. Many erroneous notions existing as to the size of Covent-garden Theatre, it may be as well to mention that it will be the largest in Europe, after the great theatres in Italy, which in point of space rank first. the original design, the architect seems to have taken especial pains to construct the smallest possible interior within the largest exterior space occupied by any other London theatre. The room now lost in useless passages and endless corridors is inconceivable; and when visi tors will hereafter gaze upon the vast interior now in course of construction, they will indeed be amazed; for although when completed there will be accommodation for five hundred persons more than the largest theatre in London now holds, and if requisite the number could be carried to one thousand, there will be increased comfort and convenience. Thus, the private boxes and stalls, although exceeding in number those in any other house, are to be each enlarged in point of space for the oc cupants. The private boxes will be,.in fact, wider and more lofty than any allowance previously made for those receptacles of beauty and fashion. The grand staircase at the front entrance will remain, and that of the royal entrance in Hart-street ; but two new stone staircases are to be built, extending from the pit floor to the upper tiers of boxes. Every point connected with facility of ingress, and, what is of more importance, rapidity of egress, has been carefully provided for, and all the accesses and approaches to the audience portion of the theatre will be fireproof. The interior is to be divided into stalls and a commodious pit, as regards the ground floor, with separate entrances to go in and out, so that there will be no opposing streams. There will be a tier of pit-boxes, above which will be the royal and grand tier of double boxes around the semicircle. Above will be successive tiers of private boxes, with an extensive amphitheatre of reserved seats occupying one circle. There is to be a capacious gallery, the entrance to which will be solely from the Covent-garden Piazza. The Hart. street en trance and court-yard will be reserved entirely for Royalty ; the holders of the property-boxes— of which (and fortunately for the proprietors) there are only five— entering at the facade. Here a most valuable improve ment will be made. Doors will be opened in the northern and southern wings ; the former, next to Long. acre, will lead to the box. office, and the latter will be exclusively apportioned to the pit visi tors. Every entrance, excepting for the Royal family and the gallery, will be in front of the theatre in Bow-street. But a more important innovation for the comfort of the subscribers to the boxes and stalls is to be made. With the sanction of the proper authorities, a tram-road-for carriages will be constructed, and the coachmen driving in at the southern side of the facade will set the company down under the portico, and then drive out at the northern side. The immense advantage of this admirable plan may be imagined, when it is recollected that now the carriages have to stop at the pavement, whilst the visitors, between two files of people, have to cross the path, ascend the steps of the facade, and cross some yards of the portico elevation before the entrance doors are attained. The elevated steps are to be removed, and the space thus acquired, assigned for the benefit of the foot passengers. The locality for saloons, waiting rooms, and passages affords every convenience for accommodation, and the de molition has supplied the opportunity of introducing a new system of ventilation. The principle of lighting the theatre to the best advantage, it is anticipated with con fidence, will be vastly improved, the experiment for that purpose having been begun last night. The plans ex hibit extraordinary care in the precautions for seeing and hearing to the best advantage. The architectural propor tions of the interior have been tested, so as to ensure for the occupants of the most remote side boxes the certainty of commanding a complete view of the stage. Mr. Costa, the musical director and conductor, has expressed his en tire approval of the construction of the orchestra, which is to enclose his formidable band of eighty-four instrumen talists. The principles of acoustics have been a constant subject of study and investigation on the part of Mr. Al bano. The stage, in depth, height, and breadth, has been always unrivalled, and will afford ample space for the mounting of operas on the unprecedented scale pro posed by the managers, as also for the attractions of the ballet, for there is to be a ballet despite of the contrary statements of our contemporaries. The terpsichorean arrangements and engagements have in fact long occu the attention of the proprietors, but they prudently kept their plans secret until they had secured the ser vices of the most eminent European danseuses and of the most experienced ballet-masters, whose names will be published in due course. We are authorised to as sure our readers,_ that under no pretext will divertisse men ts be given between the acts of operas, and that the ballets are not to be of interminable length and dura tion. The main principle of this lyrical undertaking is music, and the promotion of high art is intended ; but the public will not be deprived of the opportunity of witnessing the greatest dancers, who embody the poetry of motion. We break off here for the present, but in a few days we shall give further details of the vast improvements now in active progress. The style of decoration for the interior, after Mr. Albano has completed his plans, is to be on the most costly scale, and the best combination of form and colours, with the choice of drapery so as to harmonise with the general effect, will be adopted. It is necessary to present, of course, the occupants of the boxes in the best light, and yet nut to sacrifice the stage effects by gorgeous glare. The eye must embrace the entire coup d'xil, without fatigue, and it is to insure this object that the best talents of Paris and London have been engaged. The stage, the procenium, the ceiling, the fronts of the tiers of boxes, and their curtains must amalgamate in totality of design and harmony of meaning ; so that the general effect may be neither staring nor monotonous, but the most agreeable and ani mated assemblage in form and colour produced—the " human face divine" not being deprived of its beauty by any tawdriness of decoration. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, DEC. I.—The market re mains nearly in the same state as during the last tour or five weeks. There is, however, somewhat better demand for good 40 inch shirtings, suitable for the Chinese markets ; from whence, it is understood, more favourable accounts have been received by the last mail. We are not aware that anything new has occurred with respect to the working of short time. . . _ _ ROCLIDALE, '- i\iov. 30.—The flannel market remains in its former depressed state, and the severe frost that has set in has not yet had any effect upon the demand for goods. The wool market is still languid, but prices are fin's. HALIFAX, SATURDAY, NOV. 28. —Fewer merchants have been in the hall to day than for some weeks past, and the amount of business has been much less; but prices remain unaltered. The yarn market continues very flat, with curtailed production; but there is no alteration in prices. A little more long wool has changed hands, which has given more firmness to the sellers. There has been rather more inquiry for short wools, and prices are somewhat firmer; but not much business has been done. HUDDERSFIELD, DECEMBER I.—Our market is again fiat, although there have been more buyers in, and some little business done, but not to any great extent. Wools are firm, and have fully supported their price at the late sales in London ; still sales cannot be effected to any considerable extent, andinve do not think there will be much done until the new year. Sonic of our manufac turers are still busy making to order in the fancy trade, but great caution is observed in all that is doing. In the warehouses not much doing ; still it is expected trade will revive with the new year. LEEDS, TUESDAY, DECEMBER I.—The business done to-day at our cloth halls has been very limited. In prices there is no alteration ; but wool is rather firmer.—Man cheater Guardian. PERTH.-MELANCHOLY RAILWAY ACCIDENT. About six o'clock on Tuesday morning, John M‘Hane, railway labourer, met with his death in a fearful manr.er, at No. 3 shaft of the tunnel on Moncreiffe hill. The night miners before leaving, fir e d o ff a number of charges, which caused a great volume of smoke to ascend, and the morning being dark, the mouth of the shaft was not so easily dis tinguished. Deceased, when approaching the open part, for the purpose of descending to his work, missed the platform and fell to the bottom, a depth of two hundred feet. When brought to the top, his mangled body pre sented a shocking spectacle ; it was found necessary, before removing it, to have it properly rolled in linen cloth. The deceased was a native of Ireland, county Armagh, and was perfectly sober at the time the acci dent happened.—Perth Constitutional. MACHINE FOR MEASURING THE VELOCITY OF RAILWAY TRAINS.—Mr. M. Ricardo laid before the late meeting of the British Association a model of his very beautiful machine for registering the velocity of railway trains. The object of it is to furnish the rail way companies with a record of the work done by each train, and the manner in which it has been done. By this means they would be of ten enabled, in case of any accident, to assign correctly the nature and cause of the ac cident ; so as to prevent its recurrence. The machine is closed up under the seat of a railway carriage, and when placed there it marks on a strip of paper the speed of the train, the time of its passing every half mile and the length of every stoppage at a station. It is, in short a mechanical inspector of trains. He described the apparatus, and stated that it had gone some thousand miles without accident. He also showed the work of a machine for rp ,istering the resistance of train., Soltitt ( h.. (rtss i on en , sued, and shveral que3tions were put by the president as o the nature of the machine, which appeared to be sad,- actorily answered by the inventor. A clause of the new law for the establishment of Courts for the recovery of Small Debts enacts, that no barrister, attorney, or other person, except by leave of the judge, shall be entitled to be heard as counsel in any proceeding under the Act, and if the judge do allow an attorney he is not to be entitled to any fee whatever, unless the debt claimed is above 405.; to more than lOs. unless the debt be above Si. ; nor to more than 159. in Any case. The barrister is bound down to a maximum fee of 11. 3s. td. Fees of barristers or attorneys are not to be allowed in La:Aaion of c. , !s, in case t: plain iff, where less than 5Z is recovered—or in case of a defend ant, where less than 5/. is claimed ; or in any case what eyer, witless by order of the judge.
