As the poll approached to a termination the utmost anxiety was exhibited by the dense crowd wbich had been ever on the increase since one o'clock, and the ex citement became still more intense, as up to the last minute it was known that the supporters of Sir George Carroll were diminishing the odds that had existed at the close of yesterday's proceedings. i ; The Hall, at four o'clock, was crowded to suffo cation by _a molly assemblage, whose." most sweet voices" seemed pretty equally divided between the candidates. Mr. Alderman Wood was upon the platform, and it re quired no very keen eye to observe that the " chances of the day" were closely calculated by him, and that with all his efforts to appear calm, he yet could not conceal his agitation. Sir George Carroll entered at four o'clock, accompanied by his friends, and stood imme diately behind his honourable opponent. Considerable merriment was excited by the witty remarks which were called forth from the gentlemen clacquers in the Hall, at the expense of one or other of the two rival sections ; and thus the anxious twenty minutes which elapsed from the closing of the poll-books to the announcement of the numbers were by no means the dullest in the day's proceedings. Bets, too, were freely offered ; nor did the close proximity of the candidates prevent this delicate species of speculation being very spiritedly carried out on the hustings. The galleries were filled with ladies. The numbers were as follow: Sir George Carroll Mr. Alderman Wood , . 1,644 Mr. Alderman Hooper Mr. Alderman Moon Mr. Alderman Farncomb Immense cheering from the adherents of Sir George Carroll. Mr. Alderman Cuaems then came forward, but for some time was quite inaudible. He merely repeated the statement of the numbers as above. Sir GEORGE CARROLL then came to the front, and having in vain attempted to address those in the body of the hall, at last in despair confined his attention to the reporters immediately around him. The worthy Alderman said—Gentlemen, I thank you for your kind ness in placing me in my present honourable position. I have no doubt that you will give me credit for speaking the truth when I say that I have taken no part in this contest beyond what I felt to be necessary and jus tifiable, in order to protect myself as the next Alderman in rotation after Mr. Alderman Wood.—(Cheers.) The contest is now over—(Cheers and hisses)—as far as the Livery are concerned.—(Cries of "Not yet.") The de cision now remains with the Court of Alderman. If that is in my favour I will endeavour to do all that the Lord Mayor of this great city ought to do--(Cheels)— if it should be otherwise, I will be perfectly contented. And now, gentlemen, I thank you both sincerely and kindly for all the trouble you have taken on this occasion. Mr. Alderman Wool) then came forward, and said, I regret that you did not hear my excellent colleague, for he would no doubt have told you that which is the fact —that there is no personal contest between him and myself, for I am quite sure that no, angry feeling or angry wish has escaped from each in ro.p ct of the other.—(Cheers.) Indeed, there was no occasion fur anything of the kind between him and me, the contest being altogether between himself and the gentleman whom Mr. Anderton proposed to the Livery. All that concerns me is the fact that I am 1,320 above that gentleman. You are bound to return two Alder. men to the Court of Alderman, and therefore Sir George Carroll and myself are in precisely the same position rhear," chairs, stood at the beginning of the contest.— hear," ches, and groans.) When Mr. An ,_.derton posed Mr. Alderman Hooper be should at the same tithAllave taken care to have found the friends to .Aivert But the Livery have now proved to him %i - :~• ~j that they were determined to support the two Aldermen Mymunus.—This afternoon 6,107 bags were offered at who were declared in the first day's proceedings to have public sale, the demand was limited, and not above half sold the show of hands.--(Cheers.) I find that during but former rates were sistained, fine yellow this contest unworthy and unwarrantable fiber- good 48a to 511 Q ties have been taken nr;tu anion . at 51s 6d, 45s to 475, low 44s to 445, fine brown 42s to 433, low to good 37s to 40s, and grey according to quality 43s to 48s per cwt. FOREIGN.—This afternoon 29 chests and 86 barrels Bahia Sugar at public sale duty paid, and taken in, low yellow at 43s 6d, good brown 42s to 42s 6d, middling 41s 6d, and low 40s per cwt, being barely the former value. Privately a floating cargo of 500 chests of yellow Havannah was sold at 325, deliverable at Bristol, in bond, for home consumption. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon three parcels Bengal Sugar, amounting to 5,357 bags, were offered at auction, and all sold at about former rates. MOLASSES.—The value of West India is 21s to 245, but there has been only a limited business transacted. Bally Khal Treacle has been in good demand at 21s 6d to 225. COFFEE.—This afternoon Jamaica Coffee met with atten tion, and 62 casks 7 barrels 16 bags Jamaica at auction were sold at full rates, fine fine ordinary at 53s to 595, fine ordi nary 43s to 49s 6d, good ordinary 38s to 41s, low ordinary 355, triage 30s to 325. Native Ceylon was purchased with more freedom, in consequence of merchants lowering their prices 6d to ls, and 2,363 bags at public sale were all disposed of, good ordinary pale at 38s to 395, very dinary s 3 e 9 a s da 6d ra , a b g u e lk d e 2 d ss 37: o 6 3 d is od, damaged pal in e sou t n h d e pea berry 49s 6d. Of Plantation 362 bags were offered and went is per cwt under former rates, viz., fine fine ordinary coloury at 54s to 54s 6d, ffne fine ordinary gray 52s to 53s 6d, damaged 27s to 51s, sound pea berry 65s to 66s ; 9 casks Rio, low middling greyish at 47s 6d to 48s. TEA.—Congou has been sparingly dealt in, notwithstand ing the low rates that prevailed ; the trade only purchase sufficient for their present wants, and there is a fair supply at market of all descriptions. There are rollers of fine blackish leaf at is 8d to 2s, fair to good is to Is 6d, and inferior sorts 8d to 11d. In Pouchong a good business has been done, and the supply being small, prices rule firm, the parcels sold were at 7d to 10d for good to fine, and 44d to bid for inferior sorts. Of Souchong some parcels have been disposed of, but at rather lower rates. For Twankay the market has a dull appear ance, and prices are lower. Scented Caper has been pur chased with more freedom. For Scented Orange Pekoe there are not many buyers. SPICES. —This afternoon Nutmegs were only in limited re quest, and 6 cases 2 bags at auction sold at barely former rates—good middling brown Penang at 3s 3d, middling 3s ld, mouldy 2s 10d, wormy, ls 3d. Pimento was much in quired after privately, and 33 bags at auction sold at stiffer rates, viz., good at 4d to 4 1 / B d, and middling at 37 8 d. 33 cases of Cinnamon were withdrawn. RlCE.—This afternoon East India Rice was less asked for, and at public sale 20 bags sold at 20s for good white Bengal, which is the former value. 558 bags East India Paddy were taken in at 12s 6d to 14s for good quality. RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The arrivals of West India Rum have been very large during the past week, and of East India a fair quantity has been received. Holders of Jamaica have been desirous to realize, but submitting to a reduction on former rates of 2d to 3d per gallon, occasioned an extensive business to be transacted in all qualities, the quantity sold amounting to 800 puncheons. Calcutta has been purchased with avidity, and better prices have been obtained : the quantity sold has amounted to the large number of 1,400 casks. Madras in small parcels sold at Is 9d to is 96d proof. Deme• rara is little wanted, and prices are lower, 3s to 3s 2d being taken for limited quantities of strong. Leeward Island is not offered at any further reduction, but only a limited business has been transacted at 2s 2d to 2s 3d proof strength. The deliveries of Rum for home consumption and exportation are smaller than they were last year, and the stock is less, whilst prices are higher for all sorts, but the .dealers are only moderately supplied. Brandy is not to be had upon lower terms, as the deliveries are yet exceeding the arrivals, but only a limited business has been transacted by either exporters or the home trade. In Geneva several sales for exportation have been made. In Corn Spirits an extensive business has been done, speculators are operating. In Englith Gin a good business has been transacted. To-day at public sale 20 hints o Madras Rum were taken in at 2s 6d per gallon. Hors.—The demand has been less active, and having a my name by ...ous writers. These letters have appeared n some of the papers. I am in a condition to prove the untruthfulness of their statements, by a gen. tleman who is now standing behind me. lam able to show you that the person who uses the name " Truth" as his signature is a disgrace to his kind, and altogether unworthy of credence. In a letter addressed to the " Times," the writer affirms that the new trial in the cause of Howard against Shaw did not take place. Now this was untrue, for his friend was present, having been subpoenaed. Again, in the case of Levisen against Hodges, he said " that this trial assuredly did not go on." No; but then he should have told also that the plaintiff had preferred a bill of excep tions, which would be argued in the coming term. Now I will ask, whether this anonymous writer does not deserve to be repudiated from all society for his un called-for malignity. I may attribute the fact that lam nine votes deficit to the circumstan ce o f th ese l etters appearing.—(Loud cheers.) Again, I find my friend Mr. James Anderton has b een at wor k . H e hasissued a letter, dated this day, from the Committee-room of Sir George Carroll, stating that although a friend of mine yesterday said that the fees of Counsel were paid at twelve o'clock that day, yet that they were not so. I affirm that they were paid at twelve yesterday, and my friends hold the receipts. I com pletely exonerate Sir G. Carroll from any knowledge of this ruse, but I merely notice it for the purpose of showing that this man must go into certain holes and corners to write that which he will not do in his own house, or in my committee-room, where he might have the oppor tunity of satisfying himself as to the facts of the case. The worthy Alderman concluded by thanking the Livery for the position in which they had placed him on the poll. Mr.BENNocK then came forward to address the Livery. He must confess that he felt sorry for the position in which the Livery had placed Mr. Alderman Wood. He was sure that it was a position that he did not deserve, Mr. HoLT thanked the Livery for the exertions they had made on the behalf of Alderman Wood. The hall was then adjourned till to-morrow at two o'clock. WARWICK AND WORCESTER RAILWAY.—(THIS DAY.) A meeting of shareholders of this company was held to-day at the Hall of Commerce, for the purpose of considering the propriety of dissolving the company, under the provisions of Lord Dalhousie's Act. Mr. Po cock was called to the chair. After a short address from Mr. Spackman, scrutiueers were appointed; and there being present but 6,200 votes, the meeting adjourned till Monday. GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY. (THIS DAY.) A meeting of the shareholders was held to-day at the Hall of Commerce, Mr. Astell, M.P., in the chair, convened for the purpose of authorising, under the Act of Par liament, the purchase of the Stamford and Spalding Railway. The SOLICITOR read the deed of conveyance, and a resolution, authorising the directors to affix the seal of the company to the same, was put and carried unani mously. The CHAIRMAN reminded the gentlemen present that the extension shares that had been created would be applied to meet this purchase. The directors of the Great Northern determined, as they had done in reference to the old shares, to give interest on the money paid upon the new shares, at the rate of four per cent. up to the 30th of June, and five per cent. from the 30th of June to t!.e 31st December. That would not be paid immediately, but at next half-yearly meeting the directors would render their account on this subject to the gentlemen coming in under the present purchase, considering that they also had lent out their money on the undertaking squally with their own share holders. In answer to Mr. B. DENNISON. large quantity at market, there are sellers rather under pre vious rates. New Mid Kent pockets being obtainable at 5/ 14s to 61 15s, Weald of Kent 4/ 12s to 51 ss, Sussex pockets 412 s to 4/ 14s per cwt. The Duty for the Kingdom is backed at 200,000 i to 220,0001. At the Wtrcester market a good business has been done in Hops, but in some cases prices have slightly given way. INDIGO.—The quarterly sales of East India commenced to day, and were the largest ever known, the quantity advertised reaching 21,393 chests, of which 13,000 were in importers' hands, and 1,000 chests second- hard goods ; several parcels have not been examined by the trade, owing to the want of time. Before the Open. Mg and during the progress of the sale 1,310 chests were withdrawn. 914 chests have passed the hammer this day. We do not remember so small an attendance of foreign and home buyers, and so uneven and fiat a sale. C . OOrtNEAL—The better qualities are still wanted, and „ . . . Captain LAWS said they confidently looked forward to a hundred or a hundred and thirty miles being opened and in productive operation by the lst July, 1848. He said he had recently visited from London to York over the main line and the loop, and looking at the works with which they would or would not have to con tend, and the population on the line, he ri as dent that the London and York was the saf st under taking that had yet come out. He had no hesitation in saying that the revenue would fully realise their most sanguine expectations. After a few words from the Chairman, the meeting separated. fetch full prices, but in inferit;r of wkich there is yet a large supply further declined in value Id to 21b per lb; at auction 101 bage were sold. Fitur.—ln New Patras Currants the demand has been active, and prices are firm. In New Valentia Raisins there has been an extensive business doing, and the price has risen to 455, notwithstanding the numerous arrivals Tile arrivals of new Muscatels have been very considerable, and extensive sales made, the price being very low. CCCO.l.—The demand has fallen oft' for West India, and the market having been more liberally supplied, a decline in prices of is to 2s per cwt has taken place. Foreign has met with little attention, and 243 bags Bahia at auction were taken in at 32s 6d to 33s for good middling red, 33s 6d to 345 for good, and at 31s for country damaged. &tail is wanted, but at present no advance in the value has taken place; Sago flour is held for 16s to 17s, but there are at present not many buyers to be met with. For Tapioca prices remain low, and the supply yet exceeds the demand. Oms.—lmporters of Cod Oil are desirous to realise ' as the ' • stock is on the increase, but th e y acceptinf, 26/. 10s. to 27/. per tun, occasioned a good business to be trans , acted by the home trade. For Seal the market has an improving appearance, large purchases have been made, and the rates paid exhibit an advance on those pre viously current for all descriptions; holders manifest much firmness. All qualities of Southern are wanted, chiefly for home consumption, but no further advance in the value has LARNE, BELFAST, AND BALL Y MENA IZAILWAY.—(THIS DAY.) An adjourned meeting of the shareholders in this line was held to-day at the London Tavern, for the pur ()Ise of considering of the dissolution of the Company, Mc. W. Morley in the chair. Mr. M-Quig, Mr. Cohen, and Mr. Freeman, acted as scrutineers. The questions of dissolution and bankruptcy, moved at last meeting, were formally put, and the shareholders present proceeded to the vote, which was then d, elated to be, including the former day's voting, for dissolution, I,39o—against it, 25 ; for dissolution by bat kruptcy, 260, and against it, 1,005. This, not being a sufficient number to make the result decisive, endeo the formal business of the meeting. Mr. Mum ley having been re-elected to the chair, Mr. ll`Quio, one of the Committee appointed to examine the affairs of the Company, read the report. It ,stated that the capital of the Company was divided into 15,000 shares of 201. mach, which were allotted in the month of September, 1843; that of these stares 8,975 only had been paid upon, giving 20,0871 14s. Bd. Payments had been made up to July last to the amount of 8,5981. 13s. 7d. by the direc tors, leaving a balance of 11,4891. ls. Id. Claims were made upon the balance to the amount of 7,700.. If that sum were paid, and no further expenses incurred, there being at present 7,780 scrip shares, there would be a dividend on each share of abuut 10s. From 5,000 to 6,000 shares allotted had not been taken up, and tharprincipally by the Provisional Committee ; that 1,180 shares by order of the directors were purchased in for 3,395/. ss. on behalf of the Company, and out of the Compuny's fund, in October, 1845. The balance of money in hand was found to be in the name of the solicitor to the Company, at Messrs. Drummond's Bank; it had been refused to be paid over. Mr. M'KEE, one of the directors, said, that purchase of shares was made by the authority of two directors alone; there never had been a board before that. The broker came to the board and threatened to put a dis tringas on the funds of the company, unless the money for these shares was paid. It was under such circum stances that Mr. Spottiswoode was induced to put his name to the cheque. Mr. BIIRCHILL stated that the money being in his name at the Messrs. Drummond's was altogether that the shareholders might . get the readier access to it. The fund was in Chancery in Ireland, and by an order was paid out to Messrs. Johnston, Barlow, and Spottiswoode. He immediately invested it in Exchequer-bills to the amount of 11,300/., and with the balance deposited them where they were. He was ready under order of the gentlemen named to pay out that money to any parties whom they might please to name. After a good deal of conversation, Mr. MATTRY moved that, though the shareholders might be strictly entitled to more than 15s. a share, they would yet be satisfied to accept the same in full of all. Mr. COHEN seconded the resolution, which was car ried. Mr. HAYNES moved that the money in hand be paid over to Messrs. Johnstone. Morley, M‘liee, and Spot tiswoode, Mr. Morley always signing the cheques. This was put and carried. Mr. MATTHT moved that Messrs. M•Quig, Cohen, and Freeman form a committee to concert with the directors for carrying out these resolutions. Mr. R. JONES seconded this, and it was passed unani mously. The meeting then adjourned. taken place, although the supply at market is small. Holders of Sperm are inclined to realise, as there is a fair stock here, and they accept 771 to 781 for good to fine, and 751 103 to 761 lOs for fair to mid quality ; at these rates a good business has be transacted. Of Fish Oils none have again been brought to public sale, but several parcels have arrived since this day week ; the deliveries are, however, going on satisfactorily, and all kinds are yet cheaper than they were last session. Lin seed Oil has been in excellent request on the spot by thehome trade; but the crushers are more inclined to realise, in consequence of the increasing supply, and they accept 25s per cwt. For forward delivery several contracts have been entered into at 25s 3d to 23s 6d per cwt., but for exportation the demand has become limited. In Rapeseed Oil many purchases have been made, and prices are firm. Of Cocoa Sut Oil the quantity at market is not sufficient for the de mand, and prices are rising. In Palm a good deal has been done, and at firm prices. Olive has been largely dealt in. Lard Oil is wanted, and prices are firmer. TALI ow.—Prices have further advanced considerably for Russian on the spot, the town and country demand having been extensive, and arrivals continuing to be small ; indeed, the stock has nearly all passed into second hands, both of new and old ; the rates given have been 46s to 46s 6d for the former, of first quality, and 45s 6d per cwt for the latter; even at these high prices there are not free sellers, as the supply and stock is much less than it was last year. For forward delivery a good deal has been done at adanced rates. Home have met with eager buyers, and prices are rising, 44s having been paid nett cash ; but there is still a good supply ; the consumption is, however, very large, this being yet the cheapest sort of Tallow. All other sorts have met with much attention, and brought higher prices, the supply being small. TIMPENTINE.—Prices continue rapidly to advance; the supply being small, and the demand extensive. For spirits the latest rates paid have been 58s to 60s. Of Rough the market has been nearly cleared at higher prices. Tar is much wanted, but not much is to be had. TuE LONDON GAZETTE (THIS EVENING.)

SUGAR.—To-day bright yellow qualities of West India Muscovado Sugar were in excellent request for the scale, and merchants were enabled to obtain previous rates; although there was a larger quantity on offer, inferior brown and grey kinds /were purchased with more freedom, in consequence of a further reduction in prices of 6d per cwt. having been sub mitted to ; but these sorts are yet abundant. REFINE .—Today Refined goods were sparingly dealt in by the home trade, and there were sellers of brown grocery lumps at 635, and standard lumps at 64a. Bonded crushed Sugar is heavy of disposal—first quality at as per cwt. Paid. Price. THE SUN LoNnois t n TUESDAY E NINt oCTOBEn 6, 1846. DISTRPw O _.„,, IN IRELAND INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FORMATION AND CIUIDANCE OF COMMITTEES FOR RELIEF OF DISTRESS IN IRELAND, CONSEQUENT ON THE FAILURE OF TEE POTATO CROP IN 1846 : thatßelief Act wh recentlywhen the übl passed, ic lv 9 or a k n s d , f l o o r V w i cap. eh it p lO l.O l 7v. Theddei, requisite in any barony, extraordinary p re sent sessions are to be assembled. 2. The lieutenant of th e count y w ill be requested to directs btsee ()me divide every such barony into convenient districts, for the action to relief Committees ; each district to consist of at least two parishes, and the exact limits to be ac curately defined. 3. For the districts so formed, the lieutenant will then be pleased to constitute relief Committees : or to re assemble any Committees which may have administered relief funds within these districts,' during the period ended on the 15th of August ; and to forward to the Commissary-General a return of the districts and of the chairman and secretary (both of whom he will appoint) of each Committee. 4. When Committees which have had relief funds are to be re-assembled, some modification of the rule, as to the extent of districts, may be necessary for removing local objections ; but, under all circumstances, it will be indispensable that the relief districts shall be within the boundary of the barony, half-barony, or lesser di vision, for which relief works are required. 5. The Relief Committees (whether newly consti tuted or re-assembled) are to consist only of the follow ing functionaries and public officers The lieutenant or vice-lieutenant of the county. Magistrates deputed by each bench of petty sessions in the barony half-barony, or lesser division, for which presentment sessions shall be convened, not exceeding two from each bench. The resident magistrate in the barony division for which the presentment sessions shall be held. The principal clergyman of each church (Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Presbyterian), officiating in each parish in the district. The Chairman of the Poor-law union, comprising the whole or greater part of the barony division for which the presentment sessions shall be held. The principal constabulary officer in such barony division. The principal coast-guard officer whero available. Officers acting under the Commissary-General, and principal officer in the barony acting und er th e Board of Works, to be ex-officio members. 6. As, during the past season, central Committees were formed in certain districts, there will be no objec tion to the continuance of this plan, if their operation should appear to the lieutenants of counties more desi rable, keeping the arrangements within the barony boundaries, which is indispensable. 7. Each Committee should hold periodical meetings at the place most convenient for the members and the object. Minutes of each day's proceedings are to be kept in a book supplied by the Commissary-General for that purpose, as also for correspondence and ac counts. 8. Three members of a Committee to form a quornm. 9. The balance remaining of each relief fund of the period closed on the 15th of August to be at the disposal of the new or re-assembled Committee of the district for which the fund shall have been created. The treasurer to be reappointed. 10. All other Committees on forming relief funds, to appoint treasurers. o tr r e r a esp su o re n r d s e . nce between the Committees and her Majesty's Government to be carried on through the Commissary-General ; and it is earnestly requested, with a view of facilitating public business, that individual members of the Committees will communicate their sug gestions or objects of inquiry, at meetings of the Com mittees, to be conveyed to the Commissary-General if considered necessary, so that the correspondence may be carried on only by the chairman or secretary of each Committee. 12. Applications with respect to public works, and correspondence on matters incident to them, should be addressed to the Board of Works. 13. The attention of each Committee should be pri marily given to the provisions of the Relief Act, recently passed (9 and 10 Vic , cap. 107), as it prescribes the mode in which relief is to be afforded by employment on public works. 14. The Commissary-General will supply each Com mittee with copies of the following Acts and papers : Act 9 and 10 Vic, cap. 107, for Relief Works. Also, Act 9 and 10 Vic., cap. 104, granting Fifty Thousand Pounds in aid of Public Works of utility for Poor Dis tricts. Act 9 and 10 Vie., cap. 101, to authorise the advance of One Million Pounds for the Improvement of Land by Works of Drainage in Ireland. Tho Drainage Acts, 5 and 6 Vic., cap. 89-8 and 9 Vic., cap. 56—and 9 vie., cap. 4 ; and where necessary the Fishery Piers Act, 9 Vic., cap. 3. Treasury Minute of the 31st of August, 1846. Papers on the Drainage of Land. Papers on the use of Indian Corn and Meal. 15. A most important duty of the members of the Relief Committees will be, to promote by their influence and example, improvements in husbandry, the drainage of land, and reclaiming of wastes. 16. The employment provided by law must be of a public nature ; and the owners and occupiers of land in Ireland are, by the Act 9th and 10th Vic., cap. 107, charged with the expense of such works as are indis pensably necessary for the subsistence of the destitute poor. 17. The Government has also afforded many facilities towards the general agricultural improvement of Ireland by drainage, not only of the uncultivated, but also of the large proportion of imperfectly cultivated land ; and abundant means have been placed for this purpose at the disposal of the landowners, more favourable than here tofore, both as to the rate of interest and the period of repayment. 18. When public works of relief are to be executed, the several Relief Committees in the barony are to supply to the officers of the Board of Works appointed to con duct them, lists of persons requiring relief by employ ment, made up from registries of applicants for relief, in tke following order, and not containing a greater number of persons than the officers of works shall propose to employ from each relief division of the barony, having regard to the extent of the labouring population requir ing relief in such division :- 1. Persons destitute of means of support, who have the largest families wholly depending on them. 2. Persons with smaller families wholly depending on them. 3. All other persons requiring employment on public works, for whose support it is actually necessary. 19. A book for the registry of applicants for employ ment will be supplied to each Committee. As the ap plications are received, inquiry should be made to ascer tain the real condition of every applicant, and none s 1 actualoul d h b e e c e r s e s g it i y s t o e reg istered e e u f t , h s v e n g a s n s o h a o l l t h a e p r p r e e a s r o t u o be in r ce or means of acquiring subsistence, than employment on public works. 20. When lists of applicants are supplied to the officers of the Board of Works, they will issue work tickets to shall net persons hct w c on h t o a in are allto be em the applicants and tsr when e gis ter e t d h lists ths should be stated at foot, giving there the number still requiring employment. The lists to be revised from time to time, at the discretion of the Committees. 21. The Relief Committees are not to interfere with the execution of the works, or with the officers or stewards; but it will be at all times open to them to draw the attention of the Board of Works to any occur rences in relation to the works which in the opinion of the Committee are deserving of consideration. 22. It is not to be desired that Relief Committees should carry on works of relief of the description for which provision is made in the Act 9 and 10 Vic., c. 107. All such works should be submitted for the considera tion of the baronial sessions, and if sanctioned, they must be executed only by the Board of Works. 23. When Committees are compelled by circumstances to provide employment from funds at their own disposal, it should be limited to small works of local utility; and they should not give a higher rate of wages, nor exact a smaller quantum of labour, in any work so carried on by them, than is given or required upon works carried on under the superintendence of the Board of Works. Such works should be carried on by Committees only to the extent to which private employment is proved not to be available. The persons so employed should be paid for their labour in proportion to the work actually done, and not by any composition in lieu of wages. 24. The means of providing food for the labouring population, in lieu of the potato crops lost, are fully explained in the Treasury Minute of the 31st August. The importation of foreign grain is most properly left ionch exclusively to private enterp r i se ; an d , to a certa i n one-half yteht the e amount Lord-Lieutenant, agency. d . extent, the distribution, as we ll as t h e i ntro d uct i on, is left to xe - the e lln m ls E 25.

Commissariat Relief Office, Dublin Castle, September 24, 1846. POLICE INTELLIGENCE MANSION-IM USE. A young man, named William Payne, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having made desperate assaults upon the police. He had been fre quently, upon previous occasions, summarily convicted at the Mansion House, and at some of the Metropolitan Police-offices, upon accusations of a similar kind. John M'Dougal city policeman, 659, stated, that at twelve o'clock on Saturday night, he saw, while on duty in Bishopsgate, the prisoner strike a young gentleman in the mouth, and knock him down. Witness inter ferred, and tried to prevail upon the prisoner to go on, but the prisoner began to knock down the bystanders right and left, and struck the witness, and kicked him most violently, and in the most dangerous manner. Several policeraen then Came up, and the prisoner severely 'assaulted them, and tried to do them the most serious injuries with his feet arid his fists. The prisoner had a mob of vagabonds cheering him on and assisting him. Mr. O'Donoghue, a watchmaker, witnessed the violent condi - t ot ca . iho priscuaer, and observed, when the police man took him to the station-house, that he was served right, No smiler had he said the words than a fury of a woman struck him with her fist on the face. That was a signal for a severe attack van him. A crowd of fellows pressed upon him; kicked him, and knocked him over head and heels. The behaviour of M'Dougal, the policeman, was deserving of the highest commendation, for even when desperately struck and kicked, he showed no disposition to retaliate, but merely secured the pri soner with a firm and resolute hand. The crowd fol lowed the witness as far as Sun-street, and kicked and wounded him upon the head and body. The prisoner made several attempts to use his teeth, as well as his hands and feet. _ _ The LORD MAYOR said the complainant had evidently met with the greatest kindness, and that as summary convictions had no effect upon the prisoner, the City so licitor should prosecute him at the Old Bailey. Committed to Newgate for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DRIVEN FROM PILLAR TO POST.—Lacy, one of the officers of St. George's parish, brought Harriet Arundel, a widow who had evidently seen better days, before Mr. Hardwick, for the purpose of stating her melanc holy case. The woman had resided in the lifetime of her husband in the parish of St. George's for several years. Her husband died, leaving her with five young children, in such reduced circumstances, that she was obliged to apply to the parish for assistance. As her settlement was with the parish of Marylebone, her husband having been apprenticed in that parish, the officers of St. George's caused her to be regularly passed to Maryle bone. No objection was made by the officers of Maryle bone to the settlement, and her case being taken into consideration, an allowance of ss. per week was given her towards the support of herself and family. As soon as the New Settlement Act came into operation, in which it is provided that a residence of five years shall confer a settlement, the authorities of Marylebone stopped the weekly allowance. The widow fell into ar rears with her landlord in consequence of this proceed ing, and finding her children in a state of starvation, she applied to the officers of the parish of St. George's for relief. She was told that the parish of St. George was exonerated from the burden of her support, as she had been regularly passed to Marylebone. She went to Marylebone parish, when she was told that she must apply to St. George's. The woman, acting on advice, went to Mr. Rawlinson, the magistrate of Mar 3 lebone Police court, and was then told to make an application tq the Marylebone board the following board-day. She went, but was told to go away, as no attention would be paid to her case. Lacy said he had investigated the poor woman's case, and had found that she was a very de serving object. He knew that her family, all very young, were in a state of starvation—indeed he did not know what would have occurred had he not relieved the poor woman with a trifle out of his own pocket, and had not the magistrate (Mr. Ilardwick) kindly ordered her last week a trifle from the poor-box. Mr. Hammier( looked to the new Act, and said lie did not find any power in it for a magistrate to interfere in such a case. He was of opinion, that the efficers of Marylebone took an erroneous view of the new Act. It appeared to him that the Woman was still legally en titled to relief from Marylebone, and he should advise the woman to go into that parish and make a regular claim for relief. Lacy said, if Marylebone disputed the settlement, and would pass the woman back to St. George's, he was sure the authorities of St. George's would be willing to try the question. In the meantime, however, the poor creature and her children could not be allowed to starve. The woman then left the Court, after receiving five shillings from the poor-box, with the intention of getting a lodging in Maryleboue, and making another applica tion for relief. WORSHIP-STREET. CHARGE OF STABBING.—Ann SinnOi alias Nance Ruffey, was charged with having stabbed a man named Daniel Crawley. Sergeant King said, that between twelve and one o'clock on Saturday night there was a disturbance in Flower and Dean-street, Spitalfields, which he quelled, and he then saw Crawley go into a sort of en,ting, house of the lowest kind, kept by the prisoner. Presently he came out holding his hand to his breast, from which ho was bleeding profusely, and ran towards witness, ex claiming, Fin stabbed! Pm stabbed to the heart! Oh, stop the blood and save me!" He said that Nance Ruffey had done it, and after having been seen by a surgeon was conveyed to the London Hospital, where it was found that a wound, an inch and a half deep, had penetrated the chest. The prisoner, on being taken to the station-house, said her landlady was quarrelling with her, and had sent. Crawley to break her door open, and that when he came in he threw the meat in her face, and that she must protect herself. A certificate from Mr. Wordsworth, house surgeon at the London Hospital, was prOduced, stating that Craw ley had a punctured wound in the chest, and was in a dangerous state. She was remanded for a week. SOUTHWARK. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—EIiza Jarvis, the wife of a wine merchant, late of Bush-lane, City, was brought be fore Mr.. Seeker, charged with having made a very de termined attempt on her life the preceding morning, at a coffee-shop in the Waterloo-road. A young woman named Bade, servant at the coffee shop, stated that on Saturday night the defendant came to her employer's house, and, after having taken some coffee, engaged a bed for the night. The following morning she requested that her breakfast might be brought up stairs to her bedroom, and she ordered a slice of bacon, desiring that a knife and fork might be provided. Her wishes were complied with, and a consi derable time having elapsed, and she not coming down e urd s bdartlo t ena, eap a hgeocyrdo i iemuo r iebnt s neheid , is.iddtelattwo, the ihn,islohlatetaigresdh; beteyl that defendant informingihri eor n enia,fon d gtew .dgu l nTh o oapdc r ehwasoa d l toanwie:tterasshhiieooeeseemntuaf idn e hhbiainilboeto n nfytedeeeslewl t sry:ldcwibv:l u di :wnaeonetra p hebngrenguhhsi al answered dt a i fmcdtwni ntinhd: her from sttao d rnieeoatenowswrawt acmgas k narruenaacaoco n ysdhsrrsbfoetsee o mevehasgdnar c earojssie k bhaaen:fbrtngnl e tametti heyddgirggt on theistnragrourdic a tkrilnpoa t emal c t petou: n;o h vehrrnfie e tbki of:bi.hnuifro b lrhtroittot e teebohli d utmlierydoeee.; effected s pn therant e niwl principally flittedoad m lhel ye a br n e an t b to o i censtxsf attributedl; medical man was immediately called in,thdaeennedewpoltabliisolhel‘cavtivp:siirnobole no.unced that, although a good deal of injury was done, still that it would not be attended with any danger.: Acting-inspector Simmons, L division, stated that in quiries had been made respecting the defendant, and that it was ascertained she was the wife of a merchant in Bush-lane, in the City, who had some time since failed for 44,0001. Ile had absconded from his creditors, and a reward of 3001. was offered for his apprehension. Since the flight of her husband, the defendant had been lodging at a house in White- street, Southwark, and was supporting herself on a small weekly pittance which she was allowed by parties whom she did not know, but whom she had occasion to believe were friends in the country. Her landlady came forward and said, that for some days she h a d b een i n a very d espon di ng con d i tion of mind with regard to two of her children, who had been taken away from her, and placed at a boarding-school. Their board and education were paid for by unknown parties, and she was possessed of the idea that her chil dren would be taken away from her entirely. This latter circumstance preyed heavily on her mind. Mr. SECKER put some questions to the unfortunate her having n w g i t a h t t a e m v i p e t e w d t h s a u t i c s i h d e e o u u t I dexplsheain re l t y h e said c s t e of h a t her misfortunes were great, and that she could not bear up against them. She, however, now regretted what she had done in her excited state, and would not attempt the like again. Mr. SUCKER said, that in the defendant's condition of mind, he could not take her own word, and that it was necessary she should find two sureties of 101. each to be bail for her. The defendant not being prepared with the required sureties was committed. THAMES. PRIVATE BURIAL-GROUNDS.—Mr. Rayner, chairman of the board of guardians of St. George-in-the-East, accompanied by Mr. George Findlay and Mr. Staples, also guardians, waited on Mr. Ballantine, for the pur pose of calling his attention to the overcrowded state of a burial-ground in Cannon-street-road, in the rear of Trinity Episcopal Chapel, with which edifice, however, the cemetery has nocennexion. Mr. Findlay said he was constable of the parish, and he was requested, in his official capacity, to bring the disgraceful practices carried on in the burial ground before the notice of the magistrate. The burial-ground, which was of small extent, was overcrowded with human re mains. For some time past a most disgusting and re prehensible practice had been adopted. The coffins and bodies had been taken out of the graves, which ought not to have been disturbed, and after the coffins were broken up, large holes were prepared, into which human remains were thrown in a heap. Pieces of coffins were often seen about the ground, with pieces of decomposed flesh and hair adhering to them. The parishioners were most anxious to prevent any more interments in the burial-ground, and to abate the nuisance, and he was in structed to apply for a summons. Mr. BALLANTINE said he was not aware that he could interfere at all in this matter. Ile believed the only thing that could be done was to indict the nuisance: and if the parties did so, they would have to p ay t h e ex penses themselves, for th e auditors would not allow them to be defrayed from the poor -rate. Mr. Staples said his residence unfortunately over looked the burial-ground , which was choked up with bodies, and it was impossible to prepare a grave without removing other coffins and their contents. A nauseous effluvium arose from the ground, which he considered to be highly detrimental to the health of the inhabitants. Mr. Findlay said he had seen flowers and fresh turfs placed over newly filled-up graves to make it appear , they were of long standing. Mr. BALLANTINE regretted he could; not assist the gentlemen who had waited upon him, but he had no d übt their object would be attained by the publication of what had transpired in the Court that day. GROSS PERJURY.—Mary Swift, an elderly woman, was brought before Mr. Ballantine, on a charge of having used threatening language, and assaulted Mary Ann Evans, a girl about fourteen years of age. It appeared from the statement of the girl, that she was in the service of a gentleman named Still, residing at No. 77, Lucas-street, Commercial-road, and that on Tuesday last she gave evidence against a man named Nott, who was char ge d with having stolen a quantity of wearing apparel, the property of her master. Nott was convicted, and sentenced to three months' imprison ment. As she was leaving the Clerkeuwell Sessions House, where the trial took place, the prisoner, who had appeared as a witness for Nott. and spoke of his good character, commenced abn°,lng her, and said if the pri soner was a husbar?, of her's, she would have her liver out. On We d nesday night she met the defendant again, and she beset her, and used very bad language. A policeman, named Rowbery, confirmed the state went of the complainant as to the abusive language used on Tuesday morning on the termination of the trial. The defendant said she knew that Nott was an innocent man, and that the girl Evans had sworn falsely against him, and that p she certainly did make use of some harsh terms on Tuesday morning, but she could prove she was a mile from the spot where the complainant swore she had met her on Wednesday evening. Inspector Valentine, of the IC division, made a long statement, from which it appeared that Nott, who was an industrious and respectable man, was quite innocent of the robbery of which he stood convicted, and that he had been a victim to the malice of the girl Evans. ,On Saturday the complainant Evans sent to the station house for a police-constable, and said that, whilst she was walking about her master's parlour with a child in her arms, the woman, who had threatened and beaten her on Tuesday and Wednesday last, came out of the bedroom from under the bed about two o'clock in the afternoon, armed with a knife, and, after swearing she would stab her, gave her a blow on the face and knocked her down, and decamped by the front door. The police man made inquiries, but could obtain no trace of the woman Swift, and was satisfied from the inquiries he made that she was at home at the time the girl said she was in her master's house. The defendant was, how ever, apprehended on the warrant previously issued, and on being taken to the station-house was confronted with the girl, who persisted in her statement. While this was going on, a lodger residing in Mr. Still's house found a bundle containing wearing apparel, which Evans declared had been stolen by Nott, and secreted in the chimney of her room, and the girl had that morning signed a declaration that she put them up the chimney herself ; also that the story about the defendant Swift leaving the bedroom with a knife was unfounded and trumped up from motives of revenge, and that Nott was innocent of the robbery she had sworn against him. Mr. BALLANTINE discharged the defendant, and di rected the inspector to make a representation of the case to the Commissioners of Police, who would communi cate with the Home Secretary on the subject of Nott's conviction and innocence. HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—John Harmer was charged with having assaulted Mr. Frederiok White, a druggist, of No. 45, Gloucester-terrace, Commercial-road East, and robbed him of his watch. The prosecutor was coming home, between one and two o'clock in the morning, and was within ten yards of his own home, when the prisoner and another man ran against him in a violent manner behind, and threw him down. The two thieves immediately fell upon him, and in an instant his watch was taken from his waistcoat, the guard, a black ribbon, was drawn over his head, and the two thieves decamped in opposite directions. Mr. White pursued the prisoner, who was stopped. The prisoner was stated to be an old thief, and he had been frequently in custody. Ile was committed. FATHER MATHEW DESCENDED FROM A WELSH KING. Father Mathew is descended from a very ancient Welsh family. The records of the principality carry the pedigree haCk to Gwaythvocd, king of Cardigan, in di rect descent from whom was Sir David Mathew, the great standard-bearer of Edward IV., whose monument is in Llandaff Cathedral, as also those of his grandsons, Sir William and Sir Christopher Mathew, of about the date of 1530. Edmund Mathew, Esq., the grandson of Sir William Mathew, and heir to the ancient estates of the family at Llandaff and Aradyr, was high she riff of the county of Glamorgan in 1592. Two of his sons, George and Edmund, went to Ireland about the year 1610. .11ere-,.. in 1620 i. George mar ried Lady Monks, widow of Lord Thurles, and mother of the first and great Duke of Ormonde. Thus closely allied by blood and friendship with the Ormond family, and possessed of the vast estates of Thomastown, Thurles, and Annfield, in Tipperary, and in the counties of Clare, Galway, Cork, and Limerick, the family con tinned down to the present time. Francis Mathew, son of Thomas Mathew, of Annfield, was a gentleman of the highest consideration in Ireland, and became succes sively Baron, Viscount, and Earl of Llandaff. At his death, in 1806, the estates amounted to upwards of 40,0001. a year. His successor, the last Earl of Llan daff, greatly encumb e r e d th em , an d on hi s death in 1833, intestate and without issue, the property was entered upon by his sister, Lady Elizabeth Mathew. This old lady, who before her death was said to be not unfit for a lunatic asylum, died in 1842, and in direct violation of, and opposition to the will and desire of George Mathew, as above named, from whom her grandfather, Thomas Mathew, of Annfield, had derived the estates, bequeathed the whole, entirely from her name and family, to a French nobleman, Viscount de Chabot, highly connected in Ire land, but in no way allied in blood to the Mathews. Thus were the estates of the Mathew family, after the lapse of centuri es , conveyed away from them. What is singular enough, the old lady, who, we believe, had adopted and brought up Father Mathew, made him an executor of this very will which deprived his family of its property. H e naturally declined to act. The will, it is said, can be disp ute d , b ut we are not aware of any steps having been t a k en b y the Mathew family as yet. The castle and domain of Thomas town is regarded as one of i the most b eaut i ful places in Ireland, and is situ ated n what is termed the golden valley, about four miles from Cashel, in the county of Tipperary. Thus, by one of those myster i ous ordinances of Providence, which occur in all ages, as if to point out the finger of God in particular events, needing nothing but its own energy to produce them—Father Mathew is deprived of the fortune which could greatly assist in affecting his work ; yet he is called forth, and does it.— Monmouth shire Merlin RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

The hero of the work is the arch-trai tor Catiline, whose catastrophe is represented with such scrupulous attention to habits, manners, localities, and historical circumstances, that the reader almost feels himself an inhabitant of the eternal city, as it appeared two thousand years ago. THE JEWS IN JAMAICA.—Our Jewish fellow countrymen are placed on a more equitable footing in Jamaica than in any other part of the British domi nions. By an Act of the Legislature, passed during the government of the late Lord Metcalfe, they aro ad mitted to the full rights of citizenship in every respect. The consequence is, that no section of the community is more distinguished for its efforts to promote education and charities. There is a Jewish and General Literary and Scientific Institution at Kingston, which appears to display more activity and general talent than any similar society on the island. Mr. Joseph Aaron, a young gen tleman of abilities and acquirements, lately delivered the second of a course of lectures on the " Poetry and Fine Arts of the ancient Greeks," and Mr. Vendryes has announced a lecture on " Capital Punishments." The Despatch, of 13th August, mentions that at a ladies' bazaar 7001. had been produced towards the support of two Jewish schools. From the same paper we learn that at a , meeting of the vestry of the Spanish and Por tuguese synagogue, the Rev. A. Mendes was elected assistant minister and English preacher to that congre gation.
