Most of the country markets held on Saturday were tolerably well, but not to ray heavily, supplie with English Wheat, in which a fair amount of business was transacted, at very full prices. Foreign Wheats were held at extreme quotations. Malting Barley com manded is per quarter more money ; and the value of grinding and distilling sorts were well supported. Malt and Oats were quite as dear ; but Beans and Pees com -manded very little ittention. Indian Corn and Flour realised very full prices.; Advices from the Paris maket state that 60 francs per 157 kil. was paid for fine Flour on Saturday. The mar kets in the Baltic and Black Sea have been very firm for all articles of Grain, chiefly fbr continental use and consumption. Ia the United States, the Export demand has fallen off. The receipts of English Grain up to our market, last week, were very moderate. From abroad, we received 317 quarters Wheat, 25 Barley, 4,517 Oats, 950 Beans, .206 Peas, 50 Tares, 4,585 Linseed, 1,549 Rapeseed, 67 sundry Seeds, 1,787 sacks and 17,277 barrels Flour. Fresh up to this morning's market from Kent the arrivals of Wheat, coastwise, were by no means exten sive, and in but middling condition, arising from the dampness of the atmosphere. From Esex, Suffolk, &c., the receipts were very limited. By land carriage from Norfolk and the midland counties the supply was but moderate, hence the show of samples of both red and white was trifling, compared with some previous weeks. Notwithstanding that the attendance of both town and country buyers was far from numerous, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce ruled firm, at an advance in the quotations obtained on Monday last of fully is per quarter, and a good clearance was speedily effectedl Several parcels, in the whole about 1,200 quarters, sold for forward delivery from Cambridge shire, &c., at the above improvement. Scarcely a sample of fresh Foreign Wheat was brought forward; but we were fairly supplied with granaried samples, chiefly of light weights. The trans. actions in flue qualities of Dantzic were on the increase, at in some instances a rise of 18 per quarter-50s having been paid. In the middling and interior kinds only a moderate business was doing; yet importers were very firm. Very few floating cargoes have lately arrived o t ir dn the ia Indian Corn yet the d eman d was devoid of animat i on . Corn afloat was held for rather more money. Scarcely any Foreign Barley was on the market; and the show of Boglish was by no means extensive. The trade ruled firm, and prices were quite Is per quarter higher than on this day se'nnight. Malt, the show of which was moderate, sold at very full currencies. The quantity of home-grown and foreign Oats being comparatively small, the demand for that deseripti , n of produce was steady, and last week's prices were well .. supported. Beans, though in fair average supply, sold steadily, at Extreme quotations. We had a good demand for Peas, at fully late rates. Some of the millers having refused to sell, except at higher figures, the transactions in Flour were not very extensive. The nominal top figure for the best English Was 40s. per 280 lbs.

It is moreover understood that all works published in France, of which any part may have been originally pro duced in the United Kingdom, shall bee i nsidered as " works originally produced in the United Kingdom, and republished in France," and as such shall be subject to the duty of fifty shillings per cwt., although the same may contain also original matter not produced in the United Kingdom; unless such original matter shall be at least equal in bulk to the part of the work originally produced in the United Kingdom, in which case the work shall be subject only to the duty of fifteen shillings per cwt. Art. 11. In order to facilitate the execution of the pre sent convention, the two high contracting parties engage to communicate to each other the laws and regulations which may hereafter be established in their respective territories, with respect to copyright in works or pro ductions protected by the stipulations of the present convention. Art. 12. The stipulations of the present convention shall in no way affect the right which each of the two high contracting parties expressly reserves to itself, of controlling or of prohibiting, by measures of legislation or of internal police, the sale, circulation, presentation, or exhibition of any work or production, in regard to which either country may deem it expedient to exercise that right. Art. 13. Nothing in this convention shall be con strued to affect the right of either of the two high con tractiog parties to prohibit the importation into its own dominions of such books as, by its internal law, or under engagements with other States, are or may be declared to be piracies, or infringements of copyright.

The — New York mail had not arrived at Boston when the Canada sailed. A memorial, praying that all relations between the United States and France might be suspended, was laid on the table of the House by a vote of 21 to 14. Nothing of importance had transpired in Congress, if we except the action of the House of Representa tives on the Kossuth question. The House having passed a resolution to receive him, the "nation's guest" was presented with an address of welcome, but he was not permitted to reply. We take the following from the special corre spondence of the New York Herald:— " WASHINGTON, JAN. 5, 1852.—Kossuth did not ad dress the Senate. The Committee informed him that the Senate did not expect that he would deliver an ora tion, and he accordingly consented to remain silent. "In his interview with the Secretary of the Interior, on Saturday, he alluded to his intervention project. The Secretary replied that his department was devoted exclu sively to home affairs, and that all questions of foreign policy came through the State department. " Kossuth then declared that the opposition which he met at the hands of Congress and the Executive, con vinced him that his mission to this country had com pletely failed. He felt deeply disappointed at the recep tion he had met with in Washington. It was wholly unexpected. " He inquired, in case a body of Hungarians desired to' settle in the United States, if they could get a tract of land? Mr. Stuart remarked that Congress had the dis position of the public lands, but that he had no doubt a tract of land would be granted, if desired. Kossuth cor rected the Secretary, and explained that he did not want the land as a gift—they would pay for it—but only de sired that it should be so located that the Hungarians could live together in a separate community. "At the President's dinner, on Saturday, no speeches were made." , Marlborough Buck 4 8 2 Verriiiith„ Alonzo Aphrodite Backbiter Cossack Mark Tapley ............... 3 5 8 Ariosto .......

The mining intelligence was favourable. The yield in Mariposa county was enormous.

INCENDIARISM IN THE AGRICULTURAL DISTRICTS' —The Earl of Hardwicke intends to bring before the House of Lords, very early in the session, all the facts he can collect repecting the incendiary fires that have occurred in the agricultural districts. The Noble Earl is appealing to all the parishes in Cambridgeshire to collect evidence and furnish him with it before the Ist of February.

HUDSON TURNER. --Mr. T. Hudson Turner, one of the ablest of British arc hmologists, and a contributor to this journal,._ died o_f. consum ption on the 14th instant, at the age of oi. By his work "On the Domestic Architecture of the Middle Ages,' of which th e st volume was published in the sprin g o f last year; by his ' " Introduction to the Household Accounts;' and by some of his admirable contributions to the Archalogical Journal, his name will be heard of hereafter. Among his friends the regret will continue to be felt, that so much youthful ardour should have been unpaired by ill health, that so much knowledge as he possessed should die whiz him, and that no larger account should remain than those works which Mr. Hallam has quoted and praised in his sup plemental volume to his " Middle Ages.

N IWTON, who vela loudly cheered on rising to address - the meeting, comm ence d by describing th fa vourabl e 3 reception with which ho had been met at the differer it meetings which he had attended, and at which a desie t bad been unanimously expressed to support the positio a assumed by the Executive Council of the Amal gamate id Society. He had visited Bury, Oldham, and Manch es 'ter; and everywhere the same feeling had pre vailed— es most important fact, when it was remembered that thus ) districts comprised between 3,000 and 4,000 members out of the 12,000 of which thosociety coneieted ) The all-engrossing subject of attention was tho erative chop in Lancashire, for the purpose of which tie e Executive Council were in treaty. He had seen the proprietors and po,seFeed himself of all neces sary pa- e ticutars, and he could assure them that it was one whi ph would be capable of affording employment fur I,oc 0 men.—(Hear, hear.) He would not say that it could employ 1,000 men with the pr,sent tools, for such vvf t 3 not the case. It could now only employ 500 men at one time, but by adopting a system of relays— each se t of men work i ng eight hours—The shop might bo kept, .constantly open, and 1.500 men might be so employe el ; and in that ceso there view orders now on hand w; V.cia would find work for three months for the whole 1,.:500 men.—(Cheers.) Bat more than thie was in thei r : f avour, as he was assured by the proprietor that, If the vir asent crisis continued, he could without trouble obtain work enough for a twelvemonth.—(Cheers.) Let the 10,000/. required by the executive be voted, and the balance .of the amount necessary to complete the purchase and can ey on the concern might easily be obtained from men wh o had expressed themselves favourable to the movemt int. The work done at the establishment was of a simile r nature to that done by Messrs. Hilbert and Platt th .emselves, and it must not be forgotten that the fathers of some of the members of that firm had been mere operatives; they had started, perhaps, with a eetepital of not more than 1 ,0001., and yet they now employed 1,500 men; the value of their establishment was supposed to be not less than 150,0001, and their profits had last year been returned to the In come-tax Commissioners as 45,0001.—(11ear, hear.) These profits were high, and they came from the labour of the 1,..500 workmen, and if divided among them would add 301. to each man's annual income. —(Hear, hear.) Such a result from such a beginning justified them in being sanguine upon the success of the co-operative system • :for if 150,000/. would yield an annual profit of 45,0001., :and had arisen from a small outlay such as he had intineated in the case of Messrs. Ilibbert and Platt, what might they not do in starting with a capital, as they could do, of 40,0001. or 50,0001., when the men were man:reed by the incentive of working for themselves? —(Hear, hear.) Ho had never in his life seen so much enthusiasm displayed by any body of men as had been displayed by the Manchester men on this subject, and the same spirit had been displayed at a meeting of the iron trade which he had attended at Bury on Satur day night. The men there expressed an earnest de sire that the executive council would push-on this matter without waiting to see What the employers might seem disposed to do; that in any event the co-operative system should be carried out, so that they might reap the profits of their own labour.—(Hear, hear.) As a proof that in those districts a feeling of complete con fidence in the Executive existed, he would mention that the men of Manchester alone, reaming in work, last night subscribed upwards of 2001. towards the support of these who had been thrown out—(Cheers)—and that sum would have been much larger but for the fact that several large firms paid wages fortnightly, and last night was not pay night. Next week, however, those men would pay a double amount. He hoped the London districts would be animated by the same spirit—that they would raise small sums and form small shops, as they could by that means do more to settle the question than could be done by waiting to be sent for by their em ployers.—(Hear, hear.) Several other persons addressed the meeting upon the state of the movement in their respective districts, and it appeared from their statements that money in support of the strike is flowing in from all quarters. On Saturday night the following resolution, passed at a meeting of boiler makers,, held at the Windmill Tavern, Limehouce, was forwarded to Mr. Allan, by the secretary of the Boiler Makers' Society ; " Resolved,—That this meeting of boiler makers, having nothing whatever to do with the dispute be tween the masters and the Amalgamated Society, have been unjustly thrown out of employment by the mas ters, and viewing the present proceedings of the mas ters and believi ng th at they have a ten d ency u l t i mate l y to disorganise us as a society, do pledge ourselves not only to protect ourselves by not signing any document the masters may bring out, but will also do our utmost to further the interests of the Amalgamated Society; and as we get employ will pay one day's wages out of six to assist our members out of employ through the master's strike.”---(Carried unanimously, Jan. 15, 1852, at a general meeting.) The sum of 50/. was received on Saturday night in support of the men thrown out of employment, being principally composed of contributions of a day's pay out of the week's wages from the workmen in two large factories. THE MANCHESTER ENGINEERS. The operative engineers of Manchester had another public meeting on Friday evening at Carpenters-hall, which was addressed by Newton and others, but there was no new feature given to the proceedings. They are very orderly, and scarcely a word escapes any of the working men which could be excepted to, as regards the language and feeling with which they con duct their meetings. A meeting of the operatives of Bury, at which place the masters have not struck, came to the following resolutions:— " That in the opinion of this meeting it is desirable to abridge the hours of labour to 10 hours per day; but that no alteration in the custom of any shop can be made of permanent advantage to either masters or men, unless the same eau be made by the consent of both parties. " That while we believe it is impossible entirely to dispense with working overtime, we would respectfully request our employers to consider the propriety of making no moro than is imperatively requisite, in case of broken down and repair jobs." TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—With reference to the letter of Lord Cranworth in the Times of Saturday, and to the leading article which accompanies it, allow me to hand you for publi cation the inclosed letter from Viscount Goderich, Mr. Hughes, and Mr. Vansittart, and to say that Lord Cran worth was never appointed or selected as arbitrator by the executive council; that he never heard the evidence, that, in fact, he refused to accept the office of arbitrator, and that the conclusions he had come to rest upon a view of the case which includes demands we have never made and which are opposed to our opinions. Once for all, we say that if an arbitration can be agreed on, we will bow to the decision; but it must be an arbi tration traking into account the real facts, and not as suming that we ask for the discharge of unskilled la bourers, or the equalizing, fixing, or increasing the rate of wages. I am, sir, your obedient servant, W. ALLAN, General Secretary. General Office, 25, Little Alie-street, Whitechapel, London, Jan. 18. "7, Old-square, Lincoln's-inn, Jan. 17. " Gentlemen,—Lord Cranworth a letter to Lord Ash burton, published in the Times of to-day, may do your cause some harm, as it i s grounded on a misapprehen sion of the facts of th e case . to lay "As we were th e p ersons w h om you trusted _ the question of arbitr a ti on b e f ore Lords As hb ur ton and Cranworth, it was our duty t o t a k e care t h a t th" un derstood clearly the points at i ssue an d what you r osily did ask. - • • -• --- ___ " Now, Lord Cranworth says ' The men insist that the masters shall not employ unskilled labourers. We can only say that when we made the application to Lord Ashburton, we knew perfectly well that you made no such demand as this. " Again, we knew perfectly well that you did no t ask for a law compelling masters and men to submit to an arbitration whatsoever. What you did ask for was , th Y a b n y d i s decisions, formation of such a board as exists in France, ' e title of Conseil de Prud'hommes, to which au under the you told us and men who choose to submit voluntarilu . 0 3' i t ln s t r u t r e i r t s _ diction, and bind themselves to abide w rs ou an ld d liar glawdht o o wished for v fo o r. can refer all disputes between them ; fair ou p l ayf e l felt a e n n d ro n t o h t a h t in a g ll m m o a r s e te luntarily to such a tribunal as this, " As your case, through our means , false merits before the p u bli c, WO think has been put on titled to this statement from us, that you are en you to make what use you l and shall leave it with ~ Wu remain yours ease of it. n yours ' faithfully, " GODERICH.

Such was the cartel which the ambassador of the Executive Council was instructed to deliver in May, and on the 6th 0 1 January thereafter he signs a manifesto that the Executive Council have " never demanded the dismissal of persons at present working self-acting machines." It is by this paltry system of wretched equivocation that the honourable character of the respectable working classes is made to suffer in public opinion through the quirks of leaders who are totally unworthy to represent an honest, intelligent, but unsuspecting constituency. Why cannot this Council " speak the truth, and shame the devil ?" If they prevaricate and quibble after such a fashion, how can they expect that employers can trust to any epee meat they may make ? We repeat it, earnestly and anxi ously, the seven sages of Little Alie-street, are no true re flex of the character of hard-working lay members of the Union; and the latter have no title to assume that they are the representatives of the opinions and feelings of the great body of the operatives. These latter are shrewd, enlightened, and honest enough to withhold their sympathy from an attempt by dictation to mast( rs, and intimidation of the employed, to reduce to practical experiment the wild vision of that Parisian Socialism, which began by b an i shing, at the peril of the i r li ves , all English workmen from this Prance, as the deputy and local Of council propose to secretary do the Poor labourers MAGAZINES, &C -(CONTINUED.) AINSWORTIL Additional chapters of the " Lancashire 'Witches" lend their customary charm to Ainsworth, and, among the rest of its attractions, not the least is another in stalment of the series called " Shaksperiana." Several of the contributions this month are of that lively and agreeable st)le must welcome to the generality of magazine readers—gossippicg essays, amusing anec dotes, and humorous stories being among-A the num ber of these kind of favourites. Foremost of these in Ainsworth for January are the " Tale of a Carpet Bag," and " The Loves of Mr. Collars." Mr. Ed ward Thomas has penned an article which merits perusal, entitled " The Tables Turned," and Corne lius Colville another designated " A Night on the Brooker)." Besides these there are further portions of " The Confederates," and of " Velthinas ; or the Ordeal of Sacrifice," together with " Notes of a Loiterer in the Pyrenees, the said loiterer being Henry Cooke of Peterborough. As the poetic con tribution for the month we quote the following very graceful stanzas from the pages of Ainsworth : WE HAVE NO SYMPATHIES APART. By E. E. M. K. We have no sympathies apart, The self-same tastes control— Oet large eujeyment fills each heart, the faith pervades each soul. We love together' earth and sky,l The woods, the waves, the flowers; The wondrous realms of poesy, Euterpe's dulcet powers. One bright enthusiasm guides .fur spirits day by day; So. had the world no gift besides, This were a gift alwayl; Th. sarae soft strain will snake us weep; Our laughter and our tears Spontaneous gust), while e'en in sleep A dream resemblance wears! No hour to ()Le alone conveys A sense of bliss or woe; Through the companionship of days Alike our feelings flow. 'Twas thus, too, iu our childhood's years, When hopes were budding round: Oh! how that memory enders The rapture newly found! As hand in hand, and side by side, True as in days of old, Wit% beating hearts, and looks of pride, Each other we behold: Thou, with the flush of manly health Upon they frank, kind face, While o'er it still, is sunny wealth, Thy boyhood'6 mile I trace; I, with a softer mein than o'er My childish features wore, As if tiaw's brooding weight of care Had made me gentler than of yore: Dear playmate of those golden times, When fiction's fairy word Seemed wise as truth, and Sabbath chimes The gravest sound we heard! I will not wish this meeting back, And yet perchance it weaves A shadow for our future track, Like autumn's fated leaves. We have not met to be less fond— Our very sympathies Seem round us like a solemn bond That's sanctioned by the skies. We have not met to part unmoved — To part with laughing brow; If in our childhood's days we loved, Say are we colder now ? Enough—l will not cloud the hours Yet left to us—Elate Thy step shall be thro' life's fair bowers — Mine is a darker fate. Immediately before these verses the reader finds the account of an enthralling " Legend of Whitby," and immediately after Miss Julia Addison's continuation of " Florence Hamilton," with which the January number is brought to a conclusion.

(LS.) (L.S.) from the lathes and planing machines. They can see clearly enough that the Newtonian theory of " co-opera tion" means exclusion and monopoly. They have found out that " organization of tabour" is only a conspiracy, to for esta ll an d regret° bt the th m e a s r e k l e fi t s ho of short-sighted,nd employment, disgui s h e d i n Frenchif i ed lingo. They can distinguish betwixt that kind of inde• pendence, advocated in The Mother Country," which is promoted by the removal of every obstruction, legal and conventional, to the attainment of the rewards of honest industry, and that unjust ascendancy, there as emphatically condemned, which conspires, by trade combinations and selfish club rules, charters, or Acts of Parliament, to deprive our fellow-men of their fair chance of earnine their livelihood, and that liberty to toil and to take their chance with the rest of the subjects of their common country, of securing employ ment, end pushing their own way in the open market of the world, w hich is the great charter of industry, and which can never be defied with impunity, or offended without injustice. What right has any man to say to his master, " You shall only teach one apprentice for every four journeyman? " What honest purpose can be served by an engineer saying to a poor Wiltshire plougliman, earning Bs. a week for a family of six, that none of hie hungry brats shall be admitted into the fac tory to have a chance of rising to 36e. ' to him a princely ko e ih/ e p r u e b s l t ic o a f n u , s a — lte y o o u u g income? Wh at pot- b oy ever said to Mr. Newton, when he / flung gs down th e fil e to take the Ptcesix, " You are not n h e y ve o r u hcaarvreieqduapioifitse,d and d r a havesi sinner, n e r o , li right to sneak behind the bar and chalk up scores." What clerk has said to him, " Halloo, there—how came to the (n you to be a S ecretary? have you ever been articled? are you one o f us? We shall Meet and send a depute twnnsl of ame eer) A ss memo() Company, ll demanding the haramermen or brumins , em üblicans it of none from the office, an d t h e latploymc P but 'legal' secretaries? " We.had thought the economical heresy which inspired the "riglar' dustman to demand the " dismissal " of the eleemosynary sweeper of the crossing had bees ex p lo d ed mak; but really these " Amalgamated " doctrines begin to eus doubt whether the Ilindoo castes are not to bo revived. in Europe. We have alroaely warned the well-disposed of the insanity of in vestments in this society. The ceution is doubly neces sary against intrusting to indiscriminate hands the pro= posed subscriptions to maintain the strike, and the sham capital of the co-operative factory. If they are crazy enough for a moment to entertain so wild a scheme, we know, we are sorry to say ,of but too many masters, who will gladly take the opportunity to get out of busi ness by disposing of their works to them. In a few years engineering firms have suspended operations or fled from the trade, who had embarked 1,200,0001. in it. They have discharged 5,000 hands, having commenced with all the advantages of large capital and ripe expe rience, and carried on with mature arrangements and a character for their work. It is against the masters who have to struggle with such a trade, with the most formid able competition, and who now pay the highest wages of the beat remunerated class of workmen, that the increased difficulties now offered by the Executive Council are raised. Should the Amalgamated Society succeed in subduing the masters, they will assuredly drive away the trade, and loss employment altogether. Should the masters triumph, as assuredly they will, it will be by utterly superseding the services of the very men whose demand has been that nobody should be employed but themselves. It always has been so—it always will be so. Mr. Fairbairn, of Leeds, has been bullied, by strikes, into working the largest flax-ma chine factory in - the kingdom almost entirely by boys and foremen, at an expense so trifling that the Manchester makers declare that, if he removed his esta blishment to that town, he would defy the possibility of competing with him, and shut them all up. The em ployment of labourers at lathes and planing machines has scarcely yet extended to London. This insane move ment will render their introduction universal, and their services permanent. It is a sorry answer for an industri ous workman to make to his wife and children when wages have ceased, and they are living not on work but by subscription, " I am at home, not at the factory, be cause I sought to prevent my master from teaching our neighbo'ur's boy to earn his living, and because he would not turn out our labourers to starve in the streets to the order of our Executive Council." That is—Go ' d help use—a queer kind of " co-operation," and a rather per plexing illustration of the " organization of labour." If a man, with a dozen children, seeks to feed and clothe them honestly by overtime wages, who has a right to say to him, nay? If a dexterous and contriving work man desires to turn his rapidity and skill to account by piecework, why should not he be entitled to con tract by the job, as his master does? It is not by groaning at the Dispatch that dictation, self-seeking, and injustice can be made to supersede the obligations of truth, the sanction of justice, and the common rights of man. The inexorable laws of political economy render it certain that the whole loss arising out of this " early closing movement" will have to be worked out of the labour cf the anima. The 10,0001. of wages weekly divided by employers to their hands will no longer circulate among the neighbouring tradesmen; and the resources of men earning no wages can last but a short time, for they must produce in order to consume. If they would not afford time to masters to make the fatal discovery that they can do without the recusants altogether, we would urge upon the men the suicidal folly of the advice they have so obsequiously followed. Masters know full well that it s is not because they are ride, but because they are right, that we have roundly told the Council and their dupes that they are wrong, and that it is not in their interest, but in that of the public and the masses that we have wielded what influ ence we possess, and have honestly earned, to dispel a mischievous delusion. The capitalist happens, on this occasion, to be the victim of a pernicious act of injustice, and the representative of the most vital economical prin ciples and social rights; and, therefore, it is that we adopted our position—" not that we loved the people less, but that we loved truth the more." When masters espouse a bad cause, or wrongly urge a right one, they shall find to their cost that we shall execute upon them even-handed justice, " without partiality, and without hypocrisy." A word more, and we have done. " John Bull dearly lover a Lord." It is no good earnest of the honesty of their cause, that the Executive Council sneak after the aristocracy and quote the Morning Herald. We do not forget the Duke of Richmond's cheques being traced to the paid Chartist disturbers of the Anti-Corn-law League. We see now that they sidle up to "such men as Lord Shaftesbury, Lord Carlisle, Lord Grosvenor, the lion. A. Kinnaird"—that they have bagged Lord Ingestre, sub-lieutenant in the Guards, a man of questionable talent, to be their intercessor—that they has not been for want of sycophant platform, and that it had Lord Goderich and Mr. Vansittart, on their of the epeop aristocracy , le , and not to o c f ru th s h e the Bath, an importunity d th s a o t in they f tcannot Garter.pro d l u r c t e h h e a ß l f ri t t h is e h O a r r d ti Order of a policy which seeks to beware how they • give the the middle classes, let them. of ge become the.e the e order l s o o f P t a o their aid the terrors of a mod. suspicion n oligarchy, raarebbtloe, sordid scheming to counten bt a eo n lob r n e e keep power, It smells of of O'Connor' Brigade , the dregs 8 and the les.

A wooden pas toral sta ff was found by i ts side, such as was carried by the mitred abbots of the o ld en time. The discovery created in tense excitement, a n d h undreds of persons flocked to the spot. Air. Barry was sent for, and, in the meantime, the remains are strictly guarded, in order that a satisfactory examination m ay be made by competent persons. It may be remembered that the walls in which this interesting relic was discovered form part of the chapel built by Richard 11., in 1398, the money for the purpose having been raised by a tax imposed on all foreigners then residing in the kingdom. The body must therefore have been imbedded nearly 500 years. It was found in the wall of the crypt, under the high altar, where, in the old monasteries, there was generally to be found a small c h apel, underneath the great public church. To be b ur i ed in this position was a remarkable distinction, reserved for the founder. d' MIDDLESE X S ESSIONS, JAN. 17.—The a dj ourned meeting of the Middl esex magistrates for county busin ess was held to-d ay at Clerkenwell, Mr. Roe in thech to collect it.
