IRELAND.._ CLONMEL ELECTION. RETURN OF THE HON. CECIL LAWLESS. (From the Chronicle.) CLON3IEL, SATURDAY EVENING.—I have just time to apprise you that the son of one of Ireland's truest pa triots has been elected to serve in Parliament for this fine town. Of Mr. Lawless personally little or nothing was known here. The fact, however, of his being Lord Cloncurry's son was a recommendation, in the opinion of the burgesses, of the strongest possible character. At eleven o'clock his worship the Mayor, as returning officer, repaired to the Court-house for the purpose of bolding the election. I noticed near the bench the Rev. Dr. Burke, Aldermen Keily and Hackett, Town Coun cillors Kenny, Edward O'Neill, Ginton, Corcoran, Bar rett, Messrs. P. O'Neill, Counsellor Murphy (the return ing officer's assessor), Dominick Ronane, E. O'Shaugh nessey, &c. The galleries were densely crowded, even though it was market-day. The precept was read by the Town Clerk, after which The MAYOR (Mr. Bianconi, proprietor of the cele brated car establishment) said the duty would now de volve on the burgesses of electing a representative in Parliament in the room of the Right Hon. Mr. Pigott, lately elevated to the judicial bench. He was therefore ready to hear any gentleman who wished to propose a successor to that gentleman. The Very Rev. Dr. BURKE, parish priest, then rose, and was warmly received. The reverend gentleman re viewed the condition of Ireland, socially and politically, during the last half century, regretted the misery under which the people laboured —trusted that a better state of things was about to dawn on Ireland—and, as a con vincing proof that the Raman Catholics did not desire ascendancy, or that they were opposed to aristocracy, especially when its members were devoted to the pros perity of their country and their kind, instanced the fact, that though candidates were plentiful, and might be easily procured, nevertheless, they (the Roman Ca tholic consituency) had met that day for the purpose of electing a Protestant representative, in the person of the Hon. Cecil Lawless, a gentleman, too, of high aris tocratic bearing—but of the right sort. Alderman HACKETT, in brief but energetic terms, se conded the nomination. The usual period having elapsed, and no other candi date having been proposed, the Mayor declared the Hon. Cecil Lawless duly elected to serve in the Imperial Parliament for the borough of Clonmel. Three cheers were then given for the Mayor, Lord Cloncurry, repeal of the Union, Mr. O'Connell, &c. The Mayor having vacated the chair, and Dr. Burke having been called thereto, the marked and especial thanks of the burgesses (on the motion of Alderman Hackett, seconded by Town-Councillor O'Neill), were accorded to Mr. Bianconi for his unwearied exertions in the cause of Ireland, and more particularly for his anxiety at all times to preserve the independence of Clon mel. The return was afterwards signed by many electors in the judges' chamber, and thus terminated the election of a Member for Clonmel. Mr. Lawless, who is in Scotland, published no address, nor has any communication whatever been received from him. This apparent indifference had, for some days, caused the deepest dissatisfaction ; but the friends of Mr. Lawless explained the matter by stating that that gentleman had not been apprised of his selection as a candidate, in consequence of the shortness of the inter vening time. OPEN-AIR MEETINGS OF THE PEASANTRY. DUBLIN, SEPT. 13.—1 beg your attention to the fol lowing important proceedings in the county of Limerick, where the movement of the peasantry is conducted, even according to the accounts in the Tory papers, with order and tranquillity:— LIMERICK, SEPT. 1 2.--Pursuant to notices posted on all the chapels in the barony of Kenry, a meeting was held on Thursday at Court-hill, in this county, for the purpose of calling on the landlords to assemble and try by every means in their power to avert impending fa mine. On arriving at Court-hill and Court-bridge, at one o'clock, our reporter saw a multitude of near 4,000 persons, including women and children. From Massy's bridge to Court-bridge a strong military force, compris ing a troop of the Bth Hussars, with Captains Todd, Grant, and Day's companies 85th, under command of Col. Cox, Quartermaster-General, from this garrison, lined the road-side banks, being held in reserve for pre caution, but did not approach the meeting. At one o'clock the Rev. TIMOTHY FOLEY, P.P., of Stonehall, was called to the chair. He said the present meeting was convened for the purpose of inducing the landlords to come forward, and as far as lay in their power to assist . . in mitigating-the present distress. He continued to say that the general failure of the potato crop was probably a wise dispensation of Providence, and he hoped in the end would turn out for the best. He warned all those persons assembled to go home peaceably and quietly when the meeting was over, and on no sc eount to drink intoxicating liquor. The Rev. Gentleman throughout was cheered by the multitude. The Rev. Mr. TUOMY, R.C.C., then proposed the fol lowing resolution:—" That we, the inhabitants of the barony of Kenry, have assembled here this day peace ably, legally, and constitutionally, for the express pur pose of sending our humble petition to our most Gracious Sovereign the Queen, informing our Sovereign and her councillors of the impending famine, and the distress consequent thereon." The Rev. Gentleman stated that it was said the Irish people were ungrateful, but he bore willing testimony, as far as his own experience led him, to contradict the assertion. He hoped that the landlords and Government would do what they could and at once to allay the fearful distress, and concluded by proposing three cheers for the " Queen and Prince Albert," which were heartily responded to. Mr. J. SEEEHY seconded the resolution. T. ROSE, Esq., Court, proposed the second resolution —" That we, the farmers and labourers of the barony of Kenry, most respectfully call on the landlords of this barony immediately to meet their respective tenantry, and to suggest means with them to alleviate impending famine, and to give to their tenantry the means of sup port for themselves and families." After proposing the resolution, Mr. Rose said he would he most happy in co operating with the landlords of the district, and he earnestly hoped they would acquiesce in the spirit of his resolution.—(Cheers.) Mr. M. FITZQERALD, of Pallaskenry, seconded it. Mr. M. POTTER, Spring-lodge, proposed the third resolution--" That we do respectfully call on the Lord- Lieutenant of Ireland to order a baronial meeting for this our barony, to adopt means to carry out the provi sions of the 10th Victoria, to give employment to a starving population." Mr. Potter then said he would not ask a penny from any man who had potato ground from him this year whose crop had failed—(Cheers)—. nor would he see a neighbour of his want while he had a pound in the world.—(Great cheers.) He knew the Earl of Besborough was inclined to do good, and he earnestly hoped the landlords would co-operate with the Government—and he would be happy in giving them his hearty support.—(Cheers.) Mr. JOHN O'REGAN, Repeal Warden, Pallaskenry, seconded the resolution. Mr. JOHN MAHONY, 1?..W., Castletown, proposed the 4th resolution, " That the thanks of this meeting be given to th e l an dl or d s, gentry, and farmers of this dis trict, who came forward so liberally last year with sub scriptions in aid of the distress, and particularly to those gentlemen who gave employment to their tenantry." Mr. Mahony particularised Gener a l C au lfi e ld an d M r. Stephen De Vere. Mr. WILLIAM Riciianos'm stood up and said that the Reverend William Waller ought to be mentioned as well as them, as he was always most forward in re lieving distress, and devoted two days each week in at tending his loan office, besides what private charity he bes towed. The CHAIRMAN, to restore harmony, said it was in viduous to mention names. Mr. JOHN M'NAMARA, R. W. Kildimo, seconded the resolution. Mr. MORRIS proposed that the Reverend Mr. Foley do leave the chair, and that Michael Potter, Esq., be called thereto, and that the thanks of this meeting be given to Mr. Foley, for his proper conduct in the chair. 1 Rev. Mr. FOLEY, on leaving the chair, again warned the people assembled, in the most emphatic manner, to go home soberly and quietly, which they all said they would ; and we are happy to say they kept their word, for out of the immense crowd there was not one man ob served drunk. Head -constable O'Malley and the police from the se veral district stations were in att en d ance , b ut h a d no occasion whatever to interfere, as the greatest order and decorum prevailed. The Limerick Chronicle, a Tory paper, contains the following :--" On Thursday last a large assemblage, chiefly composed of the labouring classes, took place on the summit of Knockflrinch. This hill is situated to the southward of the road leading from Croom to Bailin garry,:and about mid-way between those towns. As this meeting was called by means of anonymous notices, some danger to the peace of the district was apprehended, and the police, under Inspector Smyth, were on the ground at an early hour. No disposition to violate the law, however, was manifested, and the parish priest, Archdeacou Fitzgerald, having appeared on the ground about two o'clock, prevailed on the assembled multitude to adopt with 'perfect unanimity the resolutions which appear elsewhere in our columns, and which, on the whole, are characterised by good sense and moderation. The meeting gave loud cheers for the Queen and Daniel O'Connell." RELIEF MEETING IN GALWAY. GALWAY, SEPT. 12.—Pursuant to a requisition, the high-sheriff, Lachlan M‘Lachlan, Esq., convened a meet ing of his bailiwick at the Town Court-house, yesterday. The HIGH SHERIFF, on taking the chair, expressed his sense of the importance of the meeting, and a h ope that the proceedings would be carried on with unanimity and decorum, so as to ensure due regard to their re quests in the proper quarter. JAMES STEPHENS, Esq., was requested to act as secre tary. He produced the Treasury minute, and said he was sorry that the public works had not been continued under the lst of Victoria, by which half the expense would involve on the Government. According to his es timate there would be no less a sum than six millions of money required to feed the people during the ensuing year, and he for one was an advocate for having the grain kept in the country, and for applying for public works on which to employ the people, and thus enable them to purchase fool. He pointed out the Claddagh Quay as a most useful project. There were six others of great utility in the town and country. Mr. Stephens read a Treasury minute approving of the Claddagh Quay as an excellent project. J. IRELAND, Esq., J.P., proposed the first resolution, calling upon the Laud-Lieutenant to issue a proclama tionAiiimisenthleni sessions under the r ecent s t atute; whinfileeing seunuctea - by the Rev. A. 11. MARTYN, P.P., 4 4, weiripuni.....l7. The latter gentleman expressed • Aluirs-for the safety ,of the people in the awful emfr -44.440/.144 NW & 1414 t4e Parr dtil P r " ' ~% fir/ THE SUN, LONDON, were willing to give all the potatoes they had grown for the payment of poor-rate. W. D. GRIPFIT IIS , E sq , J.P., proposed the next re solution, praying for the resumption of the works re cently discontinued, with the view, as he supposed, to allow the corn crops to be cut down. F. COMYN, Esq , J.P., seconded the motion, which, being put from the chair, passed nem. con. L. S. MANGAN, Esq., T.C., proposed the resolution respecting the execution elf the Lough Corrib drainage and navigation, and the opening up of the coast line of Connemara, accordinglto the plan of the late Mr. NiMMO and others. A labouring man here expressed a hope that, when the works were resumed, advantage would not be taken of the poor to compel them to work for so low a rate of wages as 10d. per day. The resolution passed unanimously. Rev. JOHN D'ARCY next addressed the meeting, and pointed out to the county gentlemen the necessity of making a great line of road between Galway and Ballin asloe upon improved principles, so as to level the hills and fill up the valleys, a resolution in favour of which he moved the adoption of. JOHN FINN, Esq., Ballymagibbon, seconded the mo tion, but was in favour of having a railroad constructed, which would give labour to thousands, and which could afterwards be sold to a company. Mr. D'Aacy had no objection to alter the terms of the resolution according to the suggestion of Mr. Fynn, and being so put it was carried, A Committee meeting was subsequently held, at which several of the landed proprietors of Mayo and Galway were present, for the purpose of receiving assents to the proposed works on Loughs Corrib, Mask, and Carra. THE IRISH POOR-LAW—THE DISTRESS. The Poor-law Commissioners have issued the follow. ing important document, in the form of a circular to the various unions. The subjoined has been received at the Lisburn union. The object of the Commissioners is to render the existing poor-law as extensively available as that very imperfect and insufficient measure is capable of, at the present emergency:— " Pool-law Commission-office, Dublin, 10th September, 1846. "Sir,—Adverting to the information received from the board of guardians regarding the state of the potato crop in the Lisburn union, I am directed by the Poor law Commissioners to express their deep regret that the report of the guardians is to so great an extent unfa vourable. " The Commissioners anticipate, in consequence hereof, a great increase of poverty and distress among the labouring population of the union ; and it is their earnest wish that those means of affording relief which the law has placed at the disposal of the guardians should be made available, to the utmost practicable extent. " They recommend, therefore, that the guardians should promptly bring under review the subject of their contracts for provisions and other supplies, the present state of their stocks of bedding and clothing, and the general state of their finances, so as to be prepared, in due time, for any accession to the number of inmates, which the present circumztances of the union render probable. "In making such preparations, the Commissioners urgently advise and call upon the guardians to base the estimates for their financial and other arrangements, on the assumption that the whole accommodation which the workhouse affords will be placed in requisition during a considerable period, commencing from the close of the present autumn. The means of relief placed at the disposal of the guardians being limited, it will be a source of satisfaction hereafter, both to the public and to the guardians themselves, if nothing be left undone to make the utmost use of those means, so far as may be found necessary, especially in the relief of the primary objects of the Irish poor law—aged, infirm, or otherwise disabled persons, to whole relief the recent measures of Parliament, enacted for the employment of labour, apply only in an indirect manner, and who may therefore be expected to form the class most liable to destitution in consequence of the pre sent calamity. What number of inmates may be safely and properly accommodated in each department of the workhouse is a question upon which the guardians will not fail to con sult their medical officer, from time to time, as occasion may require. " _ With reference to any change of the workhouse dietary, which may become desirable, through failure of a supply of sound potatoes, the Commissioners call the attention of the guardians to their sealed order of the 27th October last, which remains in full force, au thorising such departure from the prescribed form of dietary as to the guardians, subject to the approval of the Commissioners, shall seem fitting and expedient.' " The assistant-commissioner, in superintendence of the union, is specially instructed to afford the guardians on this occasion all the assistance and co-operation it may be in his power to give. —I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " B. BANKS, Clerk First Class. " To the Clerk to the Guardians, Lisburn Uhion." SUPPLIES OF FOOD. LIMERICK, SEPT. 12.—The Alban steamer dis charged " bread stuff" this day at the quay, and the Pluto returns to Tarbert with a supply of coals for the Stromboli. The Stromboli steam-frigate, Captain Fisher, has ar rived at Tarb e rt, f rom Cork, with a full cargo of "bread stuffs" for the Commissariat in this city, which are being transferred to the Alban and Pluto Govern ment steamers, and landed at the quays here. The Stromboli from eleven until one o'clock on Monday, op posite Whitebay, Cove, fired 6'B-pound shot and large shells, at s target moored off Rostellan, a distance of two miles. The bursting of the shells in the air had a grand effect. THE ARMY. LIMERICK, SEPT. 12.—The 83d regiment, in this garrison, unexpectedly received a countermand on Thursday morning, from the Quarterinaster•General's office, Dublin, and will, it is supposed, remain for the winter. The first division was to have marched hence yesterday morning for Dnblin, and the baggage was actually packed up. The 55th regiment landed in Cork, from Devonport, en route to this garrison, are also countermanded, and will remain in their present quarters. THE CROPS IN THE WEST. We. have lately had an opportunity of inspecting per. sonally the state of the crops in a large district of this county, and with regret we are obliged to say that one universal scene of desolation, so far as regarded the potato crop, presented itself to our view. We fuel as sured that, in a fortnight at furthest, there will not be a sound potato in the county of Galway. The oat crop, in saving and cutting down which the people were for the most part engaged during the week, promises a fair return, but not so abundant as was that of the last year, and wheat, which is all safely lodged in the haggard, appears to yield more than an average return. If kept in the country, there would be plenty of provisions for the support of the people, but if some check be not given to exportation, we have the worst apprehensions for the safety of the nation. We are happy to state that on Wednesday night the hardy fishermen of the Claklagh met with more success than has attended their labours on any occasion during the present season, several of the boats engaged in the herring fishery have taken over three thousand each. We sincerely hope they will nrove even more fortunate in future, and that there will be a good supply of fish for the use of the poor as . well as for the rich. The price at market on Thursday was 13s. per thousand. Yesterday there was a good supply of coarse fish at Market.— Galway Mcrcury of Saturday. FREE TRADE IN FRANCE. At a numerous agricultural meeting which took place on the Bth inst., at Fauville (Seine Inferieure), which was attended by several thousand farmers, agriculturists, and "manufacturer,, the Chairman (M. Barbet, Peer of France) took occasion to attack, in a prepared discourse, the Free Trade Society. Fortunately, one of the most enlightened of the members of this association, M. Anisson Duperron, Peer of France, was on the platform beside the chairman ; he immediately accepted the chal lenge made by M. Barbet, his impromptu speech being received with much favour by an auditory that could not be supposed prepossessed. In his speech M. Du perron said that when invited to take part in that agri cultural fke, he had not been informed of the attack which their chairman meditated on a national, serials, and important association, to which he had the honour to belong. He was a zealous member of the association recently and legally formed in favour of the principles of freedom of trade ; it was, therefore, his duty to take upon himself its defence, and their indulgence would excuse him if an attack, entirely unforeseen in a meet ing such as that, found him without preparation to meet and repulse it. No, their association was not inimical to the national industry, for it had been constituted pur posely to aid it in circumstances of the greatest danger by which it had ever been menaced, and which, perhaps, many among them did not perceive ; the very exi s t ence of their foreign commerce was at stake. In favour of their prohibitive system of duties their Chairman ap pealed to the measures of reform recently introduced in Eugland against the same system by that able minister Sir R. Peel. Those who now held such language should permit him to say, that they understood neither the cha racter nor the tendency of that great revolution ; if they would grant him a few moments attention he would briefly explain it. England had declared the complete, actual, and radical abolition of taxes on raw materials entering as primary elements into the composition of her productions of all kinds. On this condition she hopes to produce at a very low price, and renounces the principle of protection by tariffs against similar foreign productions. Let them consider the consequences of that measure on the two great industries of which they there that day represented the interests, in the very place in which they were then assembled, those were the agricultural interests and the cotton manufacture. He could not speak o f th e i r re l at i ons of direct trade with England ; they would undergo but few changes, so long as they persisted in the tariff regulations of which their Hon. Chairman had invoked the mainte nance. Let them rather speak of the foreign markets, into which they felt the necessity of pouring the sur plus of their products ; where these prohibitions had no access, where they would experience the inevitable com petition of the foreigners, and where they must present their goods at prices relatively as low as his. How would they sustain in those markets the competition of unburdened products, freed from all those charges which weighed down their own productions, when be yond this the inventive genius an d p ersever i ng act i vity o f the English producer should be still more excited by the necessities of a competition he has not feared himself to attack and provoke ? He told them, with sorrow and conviction, that if they followed the counsels that had been given them, their export a ti ons were at an end. Did they know what their tax on iron cos t t h e i r agriculture alone ? He had the right of saying it there, for be had detailed the incontestable calculation, even in the tribune of the Chamber of Deputies, supporting it b y t h e very &cum; of his adywaries themselves, and Mat calm% WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 16, 1846. lation had remained tincontetteal To Agriculture, and agriculture alone, that talc cost more than forty million francs a year, and that solely for the profit of the owners of forests and coal mines, without a single penny of it entering the coffers of the State. As to the cotton manufacturers, their Chairman and the hon urable manufacturers by whom he was sur rounded, and who were listening to him (M. Duperron). well knew that they paid for taxes on the raw material they used, independently of iron and coal. Did they be lieve that it was by quietly sleeping behind their pro tective tariffs that they would be able to oppose free trade England in foreign markets ? England was not asleep ; she had long attacked them by differential duties and protective imports of all sorts, and France had parried with the same weapons, to the misfortune of both countries. Now, in spite of the cries, and the rage and fury of her agricultural producers, England has opened her ports to the grains of all countries, and consequently to the products of every industry. She attacks all rivality by liberty. Let them reflect on that. That was a powerful flag ! It was not they who were to be taught that. There was but one method in the world of subduing the diamond ; it could not be cut but by the aid of the diamond • in the same way, it w as on ly by the aid of liberty that liberty could be resisted. Let them have confidence in that and in themselves, and they would succeed ; and if they followed the road that their Chairman advised them, they would be beaten and driven from every market in the world by low prices, and they would perish and succumb under the blows of freedom. We advise the defenders of protection through out France well to consider these few remarks of M. Anisson Duperron. They show how extensive and how rapid has been the progress of free trade principles in that country—principles which will, it is to be hoped, incite her to more peaceful emulation with England than has hitherto been the case. PROGRESS OF FRENCH MINING INDUSTRY. The Paris correspondent of the Mining Journal gives the fullowing sketch of the progress and present position of the French icon trade : A glance at the gradual growth of this monopoly of iron and iron monopoly, may not be uninteresting. In 1781 the duty on the importation of iron in bars was only two francs the metrical quintal ; in 1806 it was raised to four francs. No duty whatever was exacted on cast iron. Up to 1814 this protection was found sufficient by the ironmasters of France, although during nearly all that time, Belgium being part of the French empire, they had to contend against the overwhelming competition of the Belgian ironmasters. On the establishment of peace England and Sweden sent in about 6,000,000 kilo grammes of iron. This frightened the French so much that notwithstanding Belgium was separated from their country, they demanded the entire prohibition of foreign iron for two years, and the subsequent adoption of such duties as should enable their iron to be sold in compe tition with foreign. Accordingly a law, dated the 21st of December, 1814, fixed at 2 francs 20 cents the 100 kilogrammes, the cast-iron and iron en gueuses, and at 16 francs 60 cents the iron in bars. The law was adopted with great regret as a temporary measure. In 1822 the duties on cast iron was raised to 8 francs 80 cents the 100 kilogrammes ; and on iron from coal to 27 francs 50 cents. At the current prices of the day of English iron the 16 francs 60 cents duties were equivalent to from 751. to 801. per cent, that is to say, the French consumer paid 1751. to 1801. for what he could have re ceived from England for 100/. ; at the increased duties of 1822 the increased tax upon the consumers was equal to 150 per cent. By means of these duties not less than 31,000.000 francs annually were levied from the con sumers. The iron masters, however, contended that they did not receive all that amount, but that the wood sellers obtained the greatest part of it. Whatever truth there was in that statement, an inquiry took place, and the consequence was a reduction of one franc in the duty on cast iron and one-fifth of the duty on iron. In 1834. the Government caused a reduction of five francs per 100 kilogrammes to be made in the duty on iron from coal, with the intention of subsequently making still greater reductions. In 1835 a further reduction of one fifth of the duty on iron from coal, and of one franc on cast iron, was carried into effect by royal ordinance, and an intimation was given that it was desirable to reduce by one half the duty on foreign rails. In the subsequent session an attempt was made to reduce the duty on iron from coal 25 per cent. ; on iron from wood 20 per cent. ; on cast iron 2 francs the 100 kilogrammes ; and to admit foreign rails at 5 francs the 100 kilogrammes. These sweeping i eductions were, however, net accepted ; but the mere proposition of them frightened the ironmasters into promising that, before long, iron should be as cheap in France as it ever had been in England—that it should be sold at 120 francs (41. 165.) per ton. But time went on, and no reduction took place. In 1841 the complaints of high prices having become general, the Government convoked the Councils General of Commerce, and asked if, with due regard to the interests of the ironmasters, some reduction could not be made in duties equal to 70 per cent. on cast iron, and 110 per cent. on iron ? " Not yet," replied the Council, in which the ironmas ters were in a majority. " When then?" asked the Go vernment. "In six years, perhaps," replied the iron masters ; "but a duty must always be maintained, for France will never be able to struggle against the compe tition of neighbouring nations." " Cannot you," said the Government, " make a temporary reduction in fa vour of railways, or let in foreign rails, &c., duty free?" " Can't reduce a farthing," said the iron masters, " and as to admitting foreign rails, it is not to be thou4ht of." On second thoughts, however, they very graciously pleased to promise to consent to a slight reduction, when iren rails in France should be 417 francs the ton, and in England only 200 francs. As to what took place the last time the council was assembled, no thing was said about a general reduction of these scan dalous duties on iron, and your readers will remember that, even as regards the oppressed shipping interest, the ironmasters proposed to w►thhold all relief. The ques tion now is, will the present Chamber allow the present monstrous duties ? Will it permit railway companies to pay 385 francs and 400 francs the ton for rails, when they can be got in England for 230 francs and 250 francs ? Will they allow the entire population of the kingdom to continuo to be heavily taxed for the benefit of a class which has already obtained millions ? NAILERS' STRIKE.—A FACT FOR THE MONOPO LISTS.—During the agitation for the repeal of the corn laws, it was frequently charged upon the advocates of repeal that they were influenced by selfish motives only ; that, being of opinion that a reduction in the price of food would necessitate a reduction in the wages of labuur, they advocated repeal to obtain the reduction. In vain did the Leaguers declare they were influenced by no such motives ; that wages did not de pend upon the price of food so much as on the relative pro portion the supply bore to the demand ; and that, as far as experience could be applied to the solution of the question, it proved that instead of high priced food and hi g h rates of wages going hand in hand together, the reverse was the fact. We believe we are correct in stating that at no former period has the general rate of wages in all the branches of the iron trade been higher. This remark also applies to colliers and others employed in mining operations ; and considering the price of all the necessaries of life, the condition of these classes must be materially improved, or rather would be, if temperance more generally prevailed. If we take any district of the kingdom, and classify the varying rates of wages of the different employments, and inquire into the fluctuations which have taken place, we shall find that portion of the corn munity, of any given locality, which is worst paid, is the last to obtain an advance of wages, and the first compelled to submit to a reduction. Such is the case of the nailors—the worst paid of all artizans in the locality in which they dwell. During periods of de pression the nailors invariably suffer to an extent un known in other trades of the district, and through the late one, which began in 1839, a reduction amounting to 20 per cent. on the list of prices by which their work was reckoned took place. During the past two years they have been gradually reducing the rate of discount, which has been abandoned some months, and now the men have sent to the masters a new list of prices, and given a fortnight's notice that they will not work unless these prices are given. The notice expires on Saturday next. The new list will advance the rate of wages from 10 to 20 per cent. Whether the men will obtain this advance a very short time will show. We think they will; for though great numbers of nailors will now be returning from harvest work, which will increase the supply of labour, yet the demand for men in the irons works and mines is so great, that should they fail to obtain their demand at once, many of them will be en abled to obtain other employment, and to wait till their request is acceded to.— Worcestershire Chronicle. THE SHREWSBURY PROTECTION ASSOCIATION.-- (From a Correspondent.)—The agricultural protec tionists of Shropshire have just bad a gathering at Shrewsbury, which only served to illustrate the weak ness of the party, and to strengthen the hands of the anti-monopolists. The meeting was held at the Raven and Bell Inn, Shrewsbury, and notwithstanding the efforts made to induce a full attendance, and the publication of placards and advertisements, there were scarcely more than fifty persons present. An attempt had been made very industriously to per suade the tradesmen of the city that their interests were with the protectionists, and a sort of threat was held out that unless they supported that interest the farmers would not deal with them, but the ruse had not its desired effect, there not being more than half-a -dozen present at the meeting. It should be observed too that this, the annual meeting of the Shropshire. Protection Association, was appointed to be holden about a month since, but the attendance on the day appointed being excessively meagre, it was deemed advisable /to adjourn the meeting for a time, and to make a move ment in the interim, with the view of getting up a de monstration. That thi4 object has signally failed the protectionists themselves are most reluctantly bound to acknowledge. The speeches delivered on this occasion were fall of miserable croakings and anticipations of imaginary evils.

APPREHENSION OF A GANG OF THIEVES.—The COW' t was literrlly besieged by tradesmen desirous of hearing the examination of four per,ons, charged with having in their possession a large quantity of property, the pro duce of many robberies committed on shopkeepers in the metropolis. The names given by the prisoners, all of whom, with the exception of the woman, are well known to the police, were John Walker, John Franklin (a young man of colour), John Williamson, and Mazy Tilney, otherwise Walker. It appeared that the police for some time past have had their eye on a house situate No. 3, Chapel-street, Soho, and a strict watch was placed on the movements of certain of the inmates. The evidence of police-constable Mornet, C division, was first taken. He said, on Monday morning, about nine o'clock, he was on the watch, when he saw Walker leave the house No. 3, Chapel-street, where he lived, and shortly afterwards he saw Williamson go in, fol lowed by Franklin, who had a bag with him. Walker returned soon afterwards, and witness noticed that the woman Tilney came to the door and looked out once or twice. Williamson and Franklin then came out of the house, and witness and other constables who were with him immediately took both into custody. Police-sergeant Gray, C 10, corroborated the state ment of Mornet as far as it went. After taking the two prisoners into custody, he went to the house No. 3, Little Chapel -street, and on asking which was Walker's room was told to go up to the two-pair back. Witness went up stairs, end found Walker and the woman Tilnes in the room. In the fire-place were two pieces of wood, with marks on them, being burnt. Witness told Walker he must take him into custody, to which Walker an swered it was a bad job. Police-sergeant Whall, C 16, said he saw Gray take the two pieces of wood now produced from the fire place. As soon as Walker was told he was in nustodv he said it was a bad job. Witness ask , d him where the cloth was ? Walker said there was some cloth in a place which he pointed out, and said some cloth had been left there that morning. Witness searched the place, and found a considerable quantity of cloth and other property, all of which witness believed was stolen. Among the articles found were a piece of silk serge, a lady's riding habit, two torn labels, and some coins and medals. Mr. Superintendent Beresford, of the C division, said there were owners for nearly all the property found in Walker's rooms. Six cases at least would be brought forward, and he should commence with one that affected all the four prisoners. Mr. Gordon, of the firm of Walker and Gordon, drapers and tailors, Blackfriars-road, said the roller now produced had the marks of the firm on it. The serge found in Walker's possession was the property of the firm, but witness could not, without referring to the books, state when it had been seen safe in the warehouse, but witness was not aware that the serge was missing until made acquainted of the fact by the police. Mr. O'Brien, who attended professionally for Walker, cross-examined this and the other witnesses, but did not shake the material portions of the evidence. The first case, however, not being sufficiently complete, the further hearing was postponed till the next examination. As there was nothing beyond the mere circumstance of the woman Tilney passing as Walker's wife, and being found in a room in which stolen property was placed, Mr. Harwick decided on liberating her, and she was discharged accordingly. The next case was against Franklin and Williamson, for stealing a piece of cloth from the shop of Messrs. Macken and Co., tailors, No. 42, Conduit street. Walter Fisher, porter to Messrs. Macken and Co., said on the 25th of June, on his return from breakfast, he saw Franklin in Conduit -street, and immediately after wards he noticed the prisoner Williamson cross the street with a bag on his shoulder. Suspecting something wrong, he went into the shop an d m i sse d an en d o f c l ot h, w hi c h was safe before he left to go to his breakfast. He ran out and pursued a cab, into which Williamson had got with the property, and stopped it near St. George's Church. li e t o ld th e p r i soner Willi amson h e waned to see the goods in the bag. The prisoner Williamson told him he was welcome to look at the property, and got out of the cab as if to assist him. While witness was untying the bag the prisoner Wil liamson ran down Maddox-street, and made his escape. Witness found the stolen end of cloth in the bag. The cab-driver was called, but though he recollected being hired for a job, he could not speak with certainty to the person of Williamson. The case was considered to be too slight to convict Franklin upon, and consequently Williamson alone was ordered to stand committed on this charge. The next case was for a burglary at the house of Mr. Nash, 11, St. John's Wood. It was proved by the servant that the house was en tered a short time ago, and robbed of plate, jewel!ery, a snuff- box, some coins, and other property. The coins and snuff-box found in Walker's house were part of the stolen property. A cab driver, No. 6,023, said be was employed on the evening of the robbery to take a fare of three persons to St. John's-wood. One of the persons was of very dark complexion, but as they were all buttoned up, and had handkerchiefs round their necks, he was unable to swear positively that the prisoners were the persons. As the evidence only affected Walker, the other two were not included in the charge. Walker was ordered to be committed. Mr. Robert Pearce, tailor, No. 23, Edward-street, pro secuted in the next case. The prosecutor said his shop was entered on the 12th of August last, and a quantity of property carried oIE The thieves effected an entrance by using a pair of plyers to unlock the shop-door with, though the door was locked inside, and the key in the lock. Witness missed several ready made articles, a gold watch, and a ten pound promissory note, anti some sovereigns, which he had placed in an old waistcoat pocket. The remnant. of doeskin produced by the police, and found at Walker's lodgings, was a part of the stolen property. Walker was committed on this case. The next case was that of Mr. Leon, tailor, 47, Rath bone-place. The prosecutor said on th e morning of the 7th of August some thieves entered his shop, and carried off a quantity of ready-made clothes, a piece of cloth. and piece of doeskin. A portion of a garment found in Walker's possession was identified by Mr. Leon. Mr. Leou said he recollected the prisoner Franklin com ing to his shop some time before the robbery, and giv ing him an order for a pair of trousers. The prisoner's order was executed; and prosecutor, finding they gave satisfaction, begged to see him again at his shop, and solicited him to recommend his friends. The prisoner promised to comply with his request, and he had appa rently kept his word. Walker was committed on this charge. The next case was for stealing a riling habit and a dress-coat from the shop of Mr. Tabley, tailor, 43, Upper Berkeley-street. A portion only of the riding habit was found in Walker's lodging. This, however, was positively sworn to by the lady' s ma id o f Mrs. Kidd, of Albion-place, as the property of her mistress. The evidence being incomplete, the charge was not proceeded with. The prisoners were directed to stand committed as above, but to be again brought up next Friday to com plete the evidence in the first case. It is due to the police to say, it is solely by their activity and intelligence that these cases have been brought forward against the prisoners. To show the magnitude cf the, robberies in which the prisoners were concerned, it is ascertained that the value of the property t aken in the above six cases exceeds 1.2001. DUAIBLANE.—•DREADFUL DEATH.—A young lad, named Robertson, employed at the vinegar -works in the Miltown of Aberfoyle, lost his balance and fell into one of the boiler 3 full of boiling liquid, about mid-day on Wednesday week. No assistance being near when the accident happened: the unfortunate youth managed to get out himself, and gave the alarm. He was imme diately carried home and medically attended, when it was found that every part of his body was burned except his head and left ann. He lingered on, in great agony, until the afternoon of Friday last, when death released him from his suffering. A correspondent writes from Florence on th e 3d instant have just received information which, it tbe correct, is not wanting in importance. The popu ation of Ancona is said to have assembled on the last days of August, in the square before the residence. of Monsignor Rossi, the delegate or prefect of the province, and presented to him an address, which had been voted by acclamation, demanding—first, a permission to erect a monument to Pius IX.; and secondly, the convo ca ti on of new provincial councils really representing the wants and wishes of the provinces, and having the faculty of proposing such measures as may be deemed necessary for the well-being of the people."—Galignani. A. SINGULAR AFFAIR.—In a village not 100 miles from Breadsall there lived a certain fair one, who seemed to have no desire to enter into anything like a matrimonial alliance. Offers had been made to her, but she refused them all with the air of a Diana. Not one would she accept, though several told their love with " moving tropes ;" and she seemed determined to live and die a life of "single blessedness." But these are, indeed, remarkable times—all things are so va riable—and one fine morning this summer a " change came over the spirit" of our heroine's dream. She actually fell in love with a lucky swain of about half her age. There are two proverbs : one is, it is impossible to love and be wise," the other is, " a woman cannot keep a secret ;" both these are fallacious, as the sequel will show. So prudent was she with her love, that not a soul knew of it but herself ; and so well did she keep the secret of her marriage, that not one perso n in her own house had formed the wildest conjecture when it would take place, till the happy event was consummated. The bridecake, ring, dresses, licence, and everything were bought, but neither relative nor friend knew of her intention. However, while her bro ther was at work in the field, a " merrie" sound met his ears from the church bells, and on inquiry ho found is sister was wedded. Away he ran with the rapidity of lightning to his home, and instead of joining in the festive scene, he took up a horsewhip, and commenced thrashing all and sundry that came in his way. His conduct was so extremely violent that serious consequences were antici pated, and mischief would have been done had not the neighbours interposed. A large crowd of persons as sembled to witness so novel a sight. It turned out after. that the lady had been banker in the house where sl e resided, and it was feared she might appropriate moi e money to her share than was due.—Nottingham Journal. RE -OPENING OF FLEET -STREET.—The carriage road of Fleet-street was; after considerable delay, re opened yesterday. The Free Synod of Argyle, at their meeting on the 3d instant, appointed Thur.day, the Bth day of October next, to be observed by all the congregations within the bounds, as a day of humiliation, fasting, and confession of sin, in reference to the total and universal failure of the potato crop, and the great and increasing distress c9iacatte4 upbu this Yisit4tioiPa Avila@ Providence.. • NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SIIEERNESS, MONDAY EVENING.—His Majesty the King of Sardinia's corvette Aurora arrived here on zia turday afternoon last, for Hull. The captain and officers, to the number of 32, and stated to be pupils of the naval school of Sardinia, visited the dockyard this morning, over which they were escorted by Lieutenant Ramsey, the director of police. Having minutely inspected the several works going on in the dockyard and the smithey, the cement kiln, the mast-house, &c., they left the yard about one o'clock and proceeded to view the extensive fortifications in course of erection here, returning on board their ship about two o'clock. They dine with the . Commander-in-Chief this evening, and proceed to morrow on a visit to Chatham Dockyard. It having been intimated yesterday by circular from the Commander-in-Chief that his Grace the Duke of Wellington, accompanied by the Marquis of Anglesey, the Master-General of the Ordnance, would visit the port in the course of this day, all the authorities and crowds of the denizens of Sheerness, from an early hour in the morning were on the qui vive for his arrival, but the usual punctuality of his Grace has for once failed him, for up to the present time (seven A.m.) nothing has been seen or heard of him. It was expected that he would have arrived about noon in the Black Eagle from Woolwich. Extensive alterations and improvements, it is well known, are at the present moment in progress at the old works at this place; while a new and formidable battery, capable of mounting from fifty to sixty guns of the largest calibre, is in completion opposite the dock yard -gate, protected seaward by a deep moat, and flanked, on each extremity by huge musketry walls, on the one hand, connecting it to the fortifications at Garrison Point, and on the other to the land defences which ex tend continuously from the Thames to the Medway, and which are now being heightened and strengthened, and having a ravelin form on the Mile-town sid" of the draw bridge. The alterations on the works at Garrison Point are now nearly complete, and as sixty-three of the guns have arrived, and the beds and pivots for most of them are ready, his Grace will doubtless order some of them to be mounted. The size and calibre of the guns have already been given in The Sun—they are chiefly 32 and 68 pounders. Fifty-eight of a similar description are ordered for the new works. APPOINTMENTS. Francis J. Barr, Third Engineer, to the Pluto. Joseph Neil, Acting First Engineer, to the William and Mary. G. Robertson, W. Wynd, T. Hunt, James Anderson, John Gilmour, James Magnall, Andrew M'Farlane, T. D. Lamont, Thomas Duncanson, and James .M'Ay mont, Third Engineers Supernumerary, to the William and Mary. DOCKYARD APPOINTMENT. Sergeant Thomas Smith, to be leading man of storehouses of the second-class, in charge of marine stores at Deptford, PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—AdmiraI Sir Charles Ogle, the Comireinder-in-Craef, proceeded to Southampton 3esterday in his yacht with Ilia flag flying, to attend upon Prince Albert on his visiting the British Asso ciation. The Bulldog steam sloop, Commander Davis, having coaled, and repaired one or two defects, left to-day for Plymouth to receive advance wages. She takes out supernumeraries and supplies for the squadron of ob servation under Vice-Admiral Sir W. Parker, off Lis bon, also displtches for that officer and the British Minister, and letters for the squadron, which duty having performed she will proceed to the Cape of Good Hope to relieve the Thunderbolt. The Bellisle, 72, Captain Kingcombe, arrived at Quebec, from Halifax, on the 18th ult. The America, 50, Captain the Hon J. Gordon, will be docked at D.-vonport on the 21st, but none of her copper is to be removed. She will remain in dock only one tide, merely sufficient time to broom down her bottom, after which she will be got to sea with the least possible delay. She is progressing very favourably at present under the experienced hands of her first Lieutenant Mr. Lindsay, wl:o fitted her out. Lieutenant J. B. West (1831), six years senior to Lieutenant Lindsay is, how ever, appointed first Lieutenant of the America, to suc ceed Mr. Agasiz, invalided. It is believed on board that the America will be sent to reinforce the squadon in the Mediterrauean. Captain Gordon is on leave. Wooewicir, SEPT. 15. Field-Marshal his Grace the Duke of Wellington, Commander-in-Chief, and the Marquis of Anglesey, Master-General of the Ordnance, arrived at Woolwich at an early hour Lhis morning, and were received by Captain-Superintedent Houston Stuart, C. 8., who steered his Grace and the Noble Marquis in the barge of the William and Mary yacht to the Black Eagle steam-vessel, lying, with her steam up, in the middle of the ricer. The Marquis of Anglesey arrived at twenty minutes before eight o'clock, and visited the testing-department for anchors and chains, attended by the Captain -Superintendent and heads of the various departments. His Grace the Duke of Wellington ar rived precisely at eight o'clock, and immediately entered the barge of the William and Mary, to be conveyed to the Black Eagle steam vessel. The Nlarquis of Anglese3 was accompanied by Lard Clarence Paget, Secretary to the Master General of the Ordnance. Sir William Gossett accompanied his Grace and the Marquis of Anglesey to Chatham, and the Black Eagle left Wool wich at ten minutes past eight o'clock. The Swallow steam-vessel, under the command of Mr. Bryant, master of the Monkey steam-vessel, left Wool wich this morning for the lever Shannon, and embarked 40 of the men who brought round the Conflict steam vessel to Woolwich. The Myrtle steam-vessel left Woolwich et the same time for Portsmouth, with 20 of the men who brought round the Conflict to this naval &Vit. The Conflict steamer is now ordered to be brought up the river to Deptford, and will be taken into the same dock as the Growler steam-vessel, to be fitted with her screw propeller. The La Ho,!ue, fitting at Blackwell, as a 74 -gun block ship, is ordered to Deptford to have her screw propeller fitted at that dockyard. The Sidon steam-frigate, Captain Henderson, left her moorings at Deptford, at half-past seven o clock, this morning, to afford an opportunity of trying her engines and speed. Several naval officers went on board at Woolwich dockyard, and she proceeded down the river in fine style. Amongst the naval officers present were Commodore Sir C. Napier, who designed the vessel, Captain Sir S. Brown, Captain the Hon. D. W. A. Pel ham, Captain the Hon. 11. Keppel, Captain Wellesley, Captain Spaeshott, K.H., Captain l'rice, Captain Bur ridge, and Lieutenant Roberts, Captain S. Sparshot, of the Coast Guard, Major Henderson, brother of the gal lant commander of the vessel, Mr. Lloyd, chief engineer at Woolwich Dockyard, and Mr. Willcox, assistant to the master shipwright of Deptford Dockyard, and Mr. Seaward, of the firm of Seaward and Capel, constructor of the engines. The paddle-box boats are now on board and a portion of her shot, but she will require a consi derably greater immersion to give her paddle-wheels sufficient purchase in the water before she attains her full speed. On regulating the time of her passing over the measured mile in Long Reach, it was found that she performed that distance in 5 min. and 30 sec., or at the rate of 10.9 knots par hour, and by the common log 10.8 knots per hour, without her full power being ap plied. When nearly opposite Sheerness Massey's log was thrown overboard, and when the vessel was going at half speed the log, on being taken on board, showed the speed to be eight knots per hour. The Sidon proceeded on wards to the Mouse Light, about eight miles beyond the Non', and proved an excellent and manageable war steamer, answering her helm in a most admirable man ner, turning entirely round in two minutes. This ope ration in a man-of-war occupies about five minutes, and the result obtained in the Sidon gave great satisfaction to the whole of the naval officers on board. The Sidon is admired by all who have witnessed her construction for war purposes, her upp deck being of ample dimen • sions for working her powerful guns, and the funnels being made on the telescopic principle, and can be lowered to the level of the deck by machinery. The lower - deck is 'also - remarkable for the little interruption given to the view of the commanding officer by the machinery, and altogether her appearance is nearer to to that of a ship of war than any steamer previously constructed. The engines in one part became heated to-day, which prevented the full speed being tried, but on her return they worked very well. Mr. Brunet ex hibited and explained the nature and advantages of his reefing paddle-wheel to the naval officers on board. The ship carpenters were employed all day as if the vessel had been stationary, and on her return up the river she was attached to moorings opposite the dockyard, Wool wich, where she will be completed for sea under the superintendew.e of Mr. Willcox, assistant to the master shipvvright,:who has superintended her building since the commencement.

PARIS.—The pasticcio of Rossini, to be called Robert Bruce, is in rehearsal. Early in November it is ex pected the . first representation will take place of a work that may be called the plank of safety of the Academie Royale de Mu--ique. It is stated that Rossini, in the handsomest manlier, has presented Mons. Neidermeyer with all pecuniary emolument. Mdlle. Giuseppina Brambilla has arrived, and M. Colletti is expected this week. Madame Persia and Ronconi will be in Paris about the 231 inst. Grisi and Mario will arrive on the 30th. The Theatre haler' will open with Lucia. On the 10th or 15th of Oct.ber will be produced the Due Foscari, for the debut of Colletti, and shortly after wards the Fidanzata Corsa of Pacini, likewise for Col letti. Sivori and Henri Herz leave Paris during the present month for New York. Madame Rossi-Caccia has appeared in the character of Alice„ in Robert le Diable, at the Opera, and met with considerable suc cess. Guillaume Tell, is to be produced for her, as also, it is said, will the Siege of Corinth. VIENNA. —Jenny Lind is engaged here for three months. She will make her appearance on the Ist of October. Meyerbeer intends coming in person to super intend the mise en scene of the Camp de Silesie, to which he will add some morceaux expressly for the fair canta trice. The celebrated prima donna is engaged fo r 100,000 f, a benefit performance, and with the express stipulation that she shall not sing more than three nights a week. The Vienna Gazette slinks well of a new mass composed by a lady, already known in the Imperial city for her perseverance in composition, Mdlle. Nina Stollevark. HAMBURGH.—If we may judge from the terms paid to artists in this city, we should be led to conclude that music and dancing were more honourably estimated than in any other part of Germany, Taglioni, Jenny Lind, Fanny Elssler, and Cerito, have each received TOOL per night. STUTTGARD.—On the 20th of August last the Theatre Royal, which has been closed a long time, in conse quence of its undergoing some extensive repairs, was re opened. It was a•teneed by his Majesty the King and all the members of the Royal Family. who were received with great acclamations by a crowded house. On this occasion the long-expected new opera by Lindpainter, entitled, Liehtenst2in, was produced. The libretto is from the pel of the poet Franz Dingelstedt, founded on the story of Lichtenstein by Hauf. MILAN.—The La Scala opened for the autumn season, on the Ist instant, with Rossini's Mose in Egitto, and the ballet Sardanapalus. The opera was performed very indifferently, but the ballet was entirely successful. CESENA.—The prima donna, Teresa de Giuli-Borsi, has made a tremendous stir in this city. Dr. Mendehsohn and Staudigl took their departure from London together, by the way of Dover, on Sun• day last—the former to Leipiic, the latter to Vienna. At a meting of the General Committee of the Bir mingham Musical Festival, held at the News Rooms, Aug. 29, the following resolution was unanimously adopted :—" Resolved, That the thanks of this meeting be gi7en to I. Moscheles, Esq , for the zegl and ability manifested in all his arrangements, preparatory to, and during his conduction of the Festival."—Musical World. INCENDIARY FIRES in FRANCE. The depart cents in the north and east of France still continue to be affrighted by incendiary fires. The peo ple are exasperated, the pea , ants watch under arms, night and day ; every one is suspected by them. In many places the coaches are stopped by bands who question the travellers, examine them, and will not allow them to continue their journey, until they have verified their passes and effects. We do not, however, know that any spoliation has been exercised in consequence of these visits. Everything is usually conducted with order enough, and the travellers endeavour as much as possible to calm the irritation of these poor people. An insignificant circumstance, however, was lately very near costing the life of a person who was travelling in the coach from the femur to Avellon. About half-past four in the morning the vehicle was stopped by a band of peasants near Toutry, and the usual examination made, when a box of lucifers was found on the traveller in question. He was immediately dragged from the coach, amid cr i es o f "It is he, it is the brigand ! lie is theincendiary." In vain did be attempt to justify him self. Such was the blind philosophy of these men that they resisted all proof. He had passed through Toutry a few days before, and a fire having broken out shortly after, that was considered sufficient proof of guilt, and it was decided that he must be executed. The only dif ficulty was to decide on the manner of execution, so as to make it as lingering and cruel as possible. The wo men, who were ev en more f ur i ous than the men, wished to inflict upon him the puoishment of AbMard, and hang him afterwards. The motion was much approved thato of, and nd was about übosutffer m to be put if ho tiaforce, when it was urged were andqunr tered. Finally, h owever , i t was decided l e iy d a th ed that he should be burnt alive. All this discussion took place in the presence of the prisoner, who was seated on a bench, motionless, and his eyes fixed on the ground. He was repeatedly kicked and struck, and the women and chil dren spat in his face, but be did not dare to stir, for a single movem-nt would have led to instant death. For tunately, at this moment, some gendarmes arrived, and relemed frora so critical a situatioo.—Dektst. Caledonian Extension, 32s,—Caledonian and Dumbartonshire Eaten. sion, 233.

CLEVER DETECTION.,—A gentleman residing at the village of Muttonhole, who had owasion to be in burgh in the course of Monday, hired a minibus in the evening to convey him home. After leaving town, t" fell asleep gentleman, who was accompanied by a friend, in the minibus, as did also his companion. On reach his destination, he was somewhat surprised to find, that from the time he entered the c a b his money was I°l ' o ing. Being convinced that it must have been take from his person while asleep, he determined to s ecuce the driver and another cabman who was along with bras till such time as the matter was cleared up.
