What the wit tiest of philosophers applied to the evil of burial within churches, he might have applied with yet greater force to the burial within towns generally. He expresses astonishment at the temples of the DEITY being "paved with corpses"---what would not have been his astonishment now-a-days when the at mosphere of a city is tainted by the poisonous gases rising from the unwholesome grass and through the very cracks of the stones in our metropolitan grave • yards ? He might have uttered his indignant apostrophe not to Persepolis, but to London, to Minchinhampton, and to a thousand other places scat tered through Great Britain. Shall these things continue unchecked ? Will the Legislature remain idle while the lives of the people are being thus infamously sacrificed, and their moral character jeopardised ?

With the knowledge which the public now possess of the general outline of the policy which the Mi nistry mean to recommend to Parliament for the purpose of renovating the social condition of the Emerald Isle, and with the information that has been acquired (by what has been lately revealed at different agricultural associations in England), that the minds of the Protectionists are becoming rapidly imbued with a sense of their former errors—it will be readily perceived that the political crises of the present year will be productive of great national benefit. The alarming and disastrous failure of the potato crop has driven public men to a searching in quiry into the fundamentals of Irish misery, and measures will now be promptly produced, by virtue of which the natural rights of the cottier, and the tenantry at large, in that afflicted land, will be re cognised in a spirit of equity, and protected by Acts of Parliament. The direct consequences of this policy will be, that the labouring population will be materially advantaged by the encouragement which will be thus given to capitalists, not only large, hut small, to invest their means for eliminating the latent bounties of a soil as rich by nature as it has hitherto been shamefully neglected; and thus, in the natural order of things, we shall gradually raise up a body of peasantry, forming a social nucleus in Ireland of the utmost importance to her future welfare. Such is the hope we may now legitimately entertain with respect to Ireland—a hope which is strictly traceable to the convictions en gendered in the minds of our public men, from ai .energetic and profound consideration of the fearful results which have cumulated upon Ireland, by reason of a severe visitation of PROVIDENCE. Thu: will the truth of the saying, that " out of evil comes_ good," be forcibly demonstrated. In England, on the other hand, we anticipate that a similar boon will be conferred on our peasantry by the other great crisis, for which the year 1846 will be ever memorable in the annals of our country. The abolition of the corn- laws has already begun to lead to the salutary changes which, it was predicted, would be the certain fruits of their abrogation. We hear scarcely a whisper in favour of repealing Sir R. PEEL'S last and greatest measure. On the contrary, we daily discover wholesome signs—and -we rejoice to note them—of the self styled cham pions of the landed interest turning their minds to what is fittest to be done for their own emolument, and for the benefit of those beneath their influence, and all upon the assumption that the doom of the corn-laws has been irrevocably sealed. When these obnoxious laws were in full force the comparatively wealthy and enterprising tenant applied to his landlord for a leasehold interest of sufficient duration to justify him in making pecuniary outlays for extensive and permanent improvements in the estate he occupied. The application was ever made in vain. The landlords, bent upon influencing the votes of their tenants, that a selfish monopoly might be upheld, by returning a large number of agricul tural representatives to the House of Commons, in variably adhered to the rule of granting only a tenancy at will. But now that the monopoly has been so gloriously wrested from them, now that they have no longer the same unilateral policy to bolster up, " a change has come o'er the spirit of their dream," and a healthier tone is imparted to their councils. We have now the Duke of RICHMOND stepping forward and declaring his anxiety for a law to secure to the tenants and farmers due compensation for the per manent and unexhausted improvements which they may have effected in their several holdings; we have his Grace at length proclaiming, not that tenan rights (for it is amusing to notice that at the use o the term "ri:glits" the mind of the Lord of Good. wood adroitly revolts) should be secured, but that "justice" to tenants should be duly and uni (ormly recognised by some general law. We think these territorial aristocrats could not better employ their time, nor more felicitously repair the serious errors they have committed, than by uniting their minds and influence towards speedily procuring► aa Act of Parliament for acknowledging the natural rights of their agricultural dependents. By adopting this course they would not only be doing an act of tardy justice, but they would, at the same time, be pursuing a policy, no small portion of the genial effects of which they would themselves indubitably enjoy. Far better this than to busy themselves about a repeal of the malt-tax, which, for some time it least, it is hopeless for them to expect to carry, seeing that it yields a revenue of between roar and five millions ; and that it is impossible he national exchequer can dispense with this sum till AT shall have been first recompensed for the large re :nission of taxation, which we have recently sane - tioned, through the enlarged reciprocal intercourse which we confidently look to establish, by developing to the utmost of our ability the principles of free trade. The Protectionists would do well to attend to these suggestions, and " take time by the forelock." The committee of the Irish landlords, appointed at the meeting of the 14th instant, to which we have already alluded, have commenced their useful labours. It has been decided that they are to meet twice a week, for the purpose of taking into their consideration several matters coming peculiarly within the sphere of their duties. The honorary secretaries are all gentlemen of the highest respectability and intel ligence, and may be looked upon as the representatives of large properties, and of various political feelings. The first on the list, Mr. MONSELL, of Tervoe, is him self the proprietor of a considerable estate in the county of Limerick, and is also the son-in-law of the Earl of DIINRAVEN. He formerly contested the re presentation of his native county on Conservative principles, but was defeated. He is a gentleman of great intelligence and excellent private character, a kind and liberal landlord, a judicious and improving agriculturist. He made himself particularly active in pointing out the defects of the Labour-rate Act and the means by which they might be corrected ; he has been one of the earliest advocates for works of a beneficial and reproductive character; the suggestions he has here tofore put forward have been very valuable, and he has earned for himself the respect of men of all classes of political feeling. The committee could scarcely have made a better selection, or one that would more entirely merit and receive the public approbation than that of Mr. AIONSELL. The other three gentlemen are barristers. Mr. MoNcx is the nephew and, we believe, heir presumptive of the Earl of RATIIDOWNr., and Mr. BOURKE is the nephew of the Earl of MAYO. Sir C01.1%1[47.1 O'LociimN it is well known is the eldest son and successor of the late revered Master of the Rolls. He has, although barely of six years' standing at thta bar, attained for himself, by his learn ing and abilits, a position in his profession as high as was, perhaps , ever attained by any person within the same peri o( 1. If anything could be wished for in the selection o: the secretaries, it would be that every shade of poll .t."cs had been represented. The three first-named gentlemen are all high Conservatives; the last, aLi b oral and Repealer. We hope and trust that no ques ti on will arise of a nature to engender disputes and d ifferences in the committee It would, indeed, be nu )st unfortunate for Ireland if such was the case. r. here has been far too much distrust already exhi bi .ted. These petty jealousies have pre vented the c co-operation of persons of opposite political feel:a igs. We hope that the proceedings of the Irish laiadlords and their committee will show how unfounded were the fears and doubts that so long preves 'led an association so beneficial to the country. On the 18th instant the committee issued their first circular. As might have been expected, it re lated to the p ractical defects of the Labour-rate Act, and the modification of it under Mr. LABOUCHERE'S letter. It Es s been extensively circulated through the landown evs, and the gentlemen to whom it was forwarded ha.we been requested to take the trouble of ascertaining :the opinions of influential persons in their several d istricts with respect to the suggestions therein conta:ilned. The committee do not by any means bind tl lemselves thereto, but desire to obtain the opinions o f practical men in various localities as to their applicability to the wants of the country; they request that every publicity may be given to their circular, and. that any resolutions passed at relief committees, baronial sessions, or elsewhere, in re ference there to, may be forwarded to one of the honorary secretaries as soon as possible. The circular states that the Labour-rate Act, which came into operation in the month of August last, had the advantage of assessing all landed Pro perty according to its value, but the disadvantage of applying only to unprofitable works. The fatal character of this latter defect, and the modification of its provisions by the well-known letter of the Chief Secretary, of the 6th October last, in pur suance of the almost universal remonstrance of the landed interest, are facts of which one is aware. This defect, which was pointed out almost imme diately on the bringing the Act into operation, could not fairly be imputed to the Govern ment. The public works were intended by the Ministry to be merely auxiliary to private exer tion and private enterprise. In this point of view there is no doubt that the Act would have had a most beneficial operation, but it was carried out in a manner %%belly different from that which was contemplated. I n place of being a mere aid, it became the chief, if not the only means, of employment for the starving population. A moderate and reasonable sum might have been well expended on public works, but the enormous amount required for the support and main tenance of the people would have imposed an in tolerable burden on the real property of the country, unless it could be applied to works of a reproductive character. The Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland took upon himself a great and serious responsibility, n order to afford a remedy for this gigantic evil. He was, however, bound to keep as near the principle that had been sanctioned by the Legislature as pos iible. The Senate has not yet recognised the pro priety or expediency of freeing all persons who give employment to the quantity of labour, which should fairly be provided for by their lands, and who should expend their proportion of the labour rate in the Em ployment of persons who should otherwise be occu pied on the public works, from any further contribu don to that rate. We fully assent to the propriety of the principle ; indeed, we have pressed it at various times upon the public attention. We did so on the 12th of September last, and on several occasions since, more especially when commenting on the bold and states manlike plan promulgated by the Irish Executive; but Lord BESBOROUGH could scarcely be expected to take such a step without the legislative sanction having been received for the principle. The com mittee point out a striking example of the additional burden that would fall on the willing landlords, and the manner in which those who refused to give the required undertaking would evade their just respon sibility. They also offer seven different suggestions for an amended Labour-rate Act, to expire in August, 1847, in all of which we fully concur, but to which we are unable to refer more fully this day.

It i. 3 so seldom that we hear of anything like cordial good feeling existing between the governors and the governed in any of our colonial dependencies, that where we do meet with symptoms of its ex istence we feel it a duty to call public attention to the fact. In the performance of this gratifying duty, we beg to direct attention to an article on British Guiana,- extracted from the Colonial Gazette, which will be found in another column The Honourable H. E. P. YOUNG, who has held the office of Government Secretary from 1834 to 1846, has just arrived in England, and on his de parture an address was presented to him, signed by the elective members of the Court of Policy of Deme rara, the members of the Combined College of Elec tors, and the other inhabitants of Georgetown, bearing testimony, by universal assent, to the zeal, diligence, and competency with which he has usefully exercised his official functions in the colony. This address was forwarded to Mr. YOUNG by M r . P ETER ROSE, who, in his letter, says, "It has been my la to be op posed to you in perhaps, m ore th an any other oienalthpeoeliotliocsn, yit is a consola tion individual to me to be able to record th at our political strife never interrupted our soci a l i ntercourse ; the causes which gave rise to our differences of opinion on local measures have long since passed away, and it affords me great pleasure to bear testimony to your unwearied z"al in the discharge of the various public duties you have been called on to perform. I can confidently assert that her MAJESTY has few ser vants in her colonial possessions who possess your ability, and none of greater powers of mind or more conciliatory manners." This testimony to the manner in which Mr. YouNG has performed his arduous duties from 1834 to 1846 (which includes the period of the abolition of slavery, the apprenticeship, and the en tire emancipation) is creditable alike to the colony and to the secretary. It is much to be desired that the authorities in all our colonies should take ex ample by Mr. YOUNG, and conduct themselves so as to acquire, as he has done, the confidence of those over whom they are placed in authority. The address likewise alludes to certain important requirements of the colony, but we must defer the consideration of them to another opportunity.

We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. The Emperor of RUSSIA has at length found a champion worthy of him in the Presse—the Minis• terial Presse--which thus justifies the absorption of Poland into the Russian empire : " The men who gravely discuss at present the point whether Russia is going or not to include the kingdom of Poland in her domains, and who speak of a European coalition to prevent this violation of the treaties of 1815, might have spared their words and their threats, if they had taken the trouble to read the first article of the new organic statutes, given, on February 14, 1832, by the Emperor Nicholas to the ancient kingdom of Poland. They would have there read, " the kingdom of Poland is for ever incorporated with the empire of Russia, and forms an inseparable part of it. They would, at the same time, have readily seen, besides, that since that period the kingdom of Poland has no longer any constitution, or Legislative Chambers, or national army, or anything of what constitutes a State, but simply a special administration, and a particular governor. Is it this remnant, not of constitution and nationality, but of administration, which Russia is repre sented as still wanting to reduce? It would not be worth changing. And if' the ambiguous terms of art. 1 of the final act of the Congress of Vienna permit Russia, to pretend to have the organic statute of 1832 re garded as the accomplishment of the obligations which she has entered into towards Europe, she would in truth be simple to deny herself such a pretext." We must give to the Presse the praise of consis tency. If two months since it justified a violation of the treaty of Utrecht, it now equally justifies a viola tion of the treaty of Vienna. But, after reading this article in the organ of the Tuileries, who can believe that the master of the Tuileries is in earnest in protesting against, the incorporation of Cracow ? The Constitutionnel has the following on the affairs of Switzerland : "'The day on which the triumph of the Liberal party at Berne appeared certain, the Ministers of most of the Powers allowed it to be understood that if Berne took a step further in the path of innovation, that town should cease to be the residence of the diplomatic corps. What was last summer only a threat, has become a reality. The inhabitants of Berne, not being willing to retain their old constitution, in order to keep amongst them the diplomatists, the greatest number of the latter, on the order of their Governments, have just quitted Berne and removed to Zurich. The simultaneousness of their departure evidently shows an anterior agreement; and what imparts to this proceeding all the character of a demonstration is, that in a few days, en January 1, 1847, Berne will become the Vo rort canton, and will be at the same time the seat of the Directory and of the Diet. It is, therefore, the moment when they ought more than ever to remain, that the diplomatic corps have thought fit to de part. The French Government has not dared to join openly in this act of ill-humour on the part of the Ab solutist Powers. It would take right good care, whilst maintaining its minister at Berne, not to appear to as sume its part in the Liberal revolution of Berne; and, whatever desire it might have, it dares not yet make common cause with the re-action party. It has, how. ever, found an expedient, which is, to have a non-resi dent minister. M. de Bois-le• Comte has gone to Zu rich to present his credentials to Dr. Zehuder, Presi dent of the Diet, but he has orders to immediately take leave of absence and return to France, there to await until M., Guizot has summoned up courage to make our ambassador reside where he ought to be. What a policy it must be which lives by such expedients, and trans forms into a grand affair the lodging of a diplomatist! It leads alternately to the ridiculous and the absurd." The same paper states that the Spanish Ambas sador in Paris, MARTENEZ DE LA ROSA, has refused to give to Senor OLOZAGA, recently elected a Deputy to the Cortes, a passport to enter Spain, without the special permission of the Spanish Government. We read in the Courrier Francais— " The Council of Ministers has already occupied itself with the question of the nomination of the successor of Admiral Dupert6 ; but no decision has yet been come to, and we are assured that the unreasonable pretensions of M. de Mackzu are al subject of: great embarrassment for the Government. Since the affair of the Alacrity, on the reputation of which the Minister of Marine has been liKing since 1811, he has rendered no service in war, and is utterly out of the conditions demanded in candidates for the grade of Admiral, who must have held the com mand in chief of a squadron, and have had an engage ment with the enemy. The question has just been brought forward in a report of which nothing has been suffered to transpire. The three Vice-Admirals wbo are within the conditions required by law, are Vice- Admiral Jacob, Vice-Admiral Baudin, and the Prince de Joinville. It is proposed to get out of the difficulty by appointing the Prince, but this also would be scandalous." Samuel P,ignold, Esq. PROVISIONAL DIRECTORS. The Mayor of Norwich. I Edward Willett, Esq.

LONDON, FRIDAY, DF.CENIBER 25, 1846. Yesterday we commented upon one of those great: measures of social reformation to effect which the Prime Minister of England pledged himself upon the. hustings of Guildhall. Yesterday we remarked upon the necessity for some comprehensive scheme of' national education. To-day we would remark upon the equally enormous necessity for some comprehen— sive scheme of sanatory legislation. Our attention was re-called to the former exigency by a meeting, at which Lord MORPETH presided. Our attention now re-called to the latter by a meeting, of which_ -! Lord ASHLEY was the chairman. In Wednes day's report of the Health of Towns' Asso ciation the pernicious effects of our present system of interment was illustrated by a cor respondence of a very remarkable character. The inferences which are deducible from that corre spondence are, to our thinking, conclusive and un answerable. They form, however, merely an ad litional link in a long chain of evidence; they only corrobo rate those opinions to which we, as honest journalists, have felt ourselves frequently compelled to give utter ance. That a vast accumulation of animal matter in a state of the worst decomposition must act prejudi cially upon the health of those living in its immediate neighbourhood, one would scarcely expect to be denied. Yet the assertion has been incredu lously disregarded ; sometimes, indeed, attempts have been made to disprove the deduction. What was obvious to the plainest intellect when un warped by prejudice, has been treated as a frivolous misapprehension by those whose pecuniary interests were implicated therein. Men have had the stupidity to contemn the most overwhelming statistical argu ments ; men have had the stolid audacity to discard the unanimous arguments of science. With the most violent epidemics raging periodically in the vicinity of these pestilential churchyards, with a visible glut of corpses, with a visible exudation of prurient matter from the graves, with a visible malaria reeking from the contaminated soil, before their eyes continually, these dis'entients have insisted upon the innocuous nature of a system which to every impartial observer was increasing the mortality of the kingdom frightfully The data derived from chemical analysis, the declara. tions of experienced physicians, the remonstrances o ;he local authorities, are all to no purpose. Our fore. fathers were interred in Saint Paul's, Covent-garden, our forefathers were satisfied with decent sepulture in Spafields Burial-ground, our forefathers were contented with their six feet of earth in the churchyard at Drury-lane why should not we be contented in like manner ? That is their description of logic. They forget that it is the very circumstance of our ancestors having been in terred, generation after generation, in St. Paul's, Covent-garden, and elsewhere, that renders it unad visable to continue adding to those surcharged pits of corruption. They forget that sepulture might —years ago—have been decent in Spafields, but that now it is most indecent, most immoral, and most unchristian. They forget that where the full measure of six feet was allowable in the (lays of eur predecessors, it is an impossibility now-a-days. They altogether forget these things, or, we suspect, they wittingly distort them for their own venal purposes, out of their own cupidity, from a desire to extend their odious and execrable emolument. The correspondence to which we have referred as having been submitted to the Health of Towns' Asso ciation originated out of certain occurrences in Min ehinhampton--occurrences that go far to attest the baneful consequences of these over-stocked burial grounds. They prove that even in a little country town, where the ventilation and drainage are excel• lent, and in which, during a period of fourteen years, previous to 1843, not a single case of Idiopathic fever had come to the knowledge of an experienced resident practitioner, contagious diseases have, since that period, ravaged the population at intervals—and this because the parish graveyard had been literally sur feited with dead bodies. Beyond this, moreover, the soil of that graveyard had been actually carried away to the extent of several hundred loads, for the purpose of fertilizing the adjacent meadows, though that soil was so impregnated with animal matter that its colour was peculiarly darkened. Can anything more be wanting after this to prove the necessity for some strenuous interference on the part of the Legislature Can any additional reason be required to enforce the annual motion of Mr. MACKINNON ? Is it not sufficiently manifest that the present system of sepul ture is prejudicial to the health of the quick, as well as derogatory to the sanctity of the dead ; that it is a violation of all decency ; that it is injurious to the morality of the people ; that it is opposed to some of the holiest principles of Christianity ? Is there not something pagan in the sawing in two of coffins, in the " hand-picking " of human bones, in the burning of ragged shrouds and partially-decayed flesh? Is there not something brutalizing in the m a . nuring of our fields with the remains of men sanctified by death and consecrated by the solemn language of Christian burial ? While we shudder at the pestilence which is inevitable from such masses of putrefaction, may we not with justice shudder at the evils of a moral character, which are no less inevitable ? The heart may mourn and the eyes may weep for the memory of departed humanity, but if its inanimate form be treated habitually with no more respect than that evinced towards the car case of a dead dog, the holiness of that memory will be first diminished, and ultimately forgotten. Christianity has invested death with an ineffable grandeur. By the genius of that religion the dead man is beatified, and his body becomes, consequently, encompassed by a multitude of pathetic and sublime associations. The effect of our present system of intermural interment is to destroy those associations, to render their sublimity a mockery, and their pathos a derision, to fill the popular mind with a heathenish abhorrence for the grave, and a loathing of its silent habitants.

A letter from Vienna, of the 13th, says—" The Prince Archbishop of Vienna, M. de Milde, has just had u narrow escape from assassination. In the morning of Wednesday last, while the prelate was still in bed, his valet de chambre came into his room, and pulling open the curtains, exclaimed, Monseigneur, Jesus Christ has appeared to me during the night, and ordered me to cut the throat of the Archbishop of Vienna." Immediately on pronouncing these words he drew a razor from hi,~ pocket, and held it towards the throat of the prelate. M. Milde, who perceived that his servant was labouring under an attack of mental alienation, had the presence of mind to say to him, 'Listen, my friend; if the Saviour has really charged you to take my life, you must do it, for no one should disobey God's commands; but you must do nothing without first addressing a prayer to the Almighty. Pray, and I will resign myself to die by 'your hand." The domestic placed himself before a crucifix, and began a silent prayer; whilst he was so engaged, the prelate arose, and went into an adjoining room, locking the door after him. The servant was after wards secured, and placed in a lunatic asylum." THE WORCESTER GUARDIAN.—This journal was published, for the last time, to-day (Friday), after ably and faithfully fighting the battles of Conservatism, in the districts through w hi c h i t circulated, for upward:, of twelve years. The proprietors of its ve teran ally, Benow's Worcester Journal (est& blished in the year 1709), soma time since purchased the copyright, types, &c., of- the Gelid/cm' and, in discontinuing its publication, announce, " Tha they have added its circulation and business to that, of the Journal, assuring their numerous patrons that the same independent course which ha, guided the conduct of the Journal, and raised it to the high estimation in which it is held amongst all classes of the community, will be pursued with renewed vigour, the conductors of the piper trusting, by the zealous and faithful discharge of their duties, to maintain tot , the Journal the proud position which it has held in the city and county of Worcest:r for a period of nearly one hundred and forty years." YARMOUTH FISHERIES.—Our boats have most of them made up, and have realised a larger catch than for many years past, the boats averaging, accorcFmg to the information received from an old fish merchant in the town, from 33 to 40 lasts a boat. As far as can be as certained the prices average about 15/. a last, although a few of the finest of the fish realised as much as 404 a last. A large portion of the catch having been taken during the last few weeks, it is feared that a market will hardly be found for all of them, especially as the French have been prevented purchasing, while the stock of billet or cord wood is nearly exhausted, and the suspension of the river traffic will render it difficult to obtain a fresh supply for curing the latest. caught fish.—Cambridge Advertiser. The Poor-law Commissioners have appointed Anewrin Owen, Esq., of Egryn, Denbighshire, one of the Assistant Tithe ommissioners, to be an Assistant Poor-law Commissioner, in the place of the late Colonel Wade. A German journal relates the following. :—A short me ago M. Fraxiexoni, the professor of Italian at the University of Prague, announced that in future durin g his lectures all th e J ew i s h stu d ents would be expected to occupy the seat behind the Christian students, of whatever country. Some of the young Jews rt•sisted this order, and took their seats promiscuously. The professor remonstrated, and most of the Christian stu dents took part with him. The Jews laid a complaint before the director of studies, M. Zeitler, a prelate, who summoned a council of the professors, at which M. Fraxiexoni demanded the expulsion of six of the Jews who had been most active in their resistance to his order. M. Zeitler, however, reprobated him severely for his intolerance, and informed him that the council would not admit of such distinctions. The Dean of the Univer sity, who is also a prelate, said he coincided with M. Zeitler, and M. Fraxiexoni was compelled, on pain of dismissal, to retract the order that he had given. USEFUL TO CORN DEALERS.—The following com munication as to the means ofconverting the continental prices of corn into English computation is from Mr. 'rate, a well-known authority in matters of commercial calculation:—" The anxious attention which is now directed to the prices of corn on the Continent giving rise to frequent quotations of trade prices in France, I beg to inform those of your readers who may not be ac quainted with the manner of converti ng such prices into those of this country, that, assuming the par of ex change to be 25i francs per pound sterling, if 228 shillings be multiplied by the number of francs in the price per hectolitre, and the 'product be divided by 100, or the two lower figures be cut off, the result will be th e ' number of shillings per imperial quarter. Thus a recent quctation for the price of wheat being 25 francs per hectolitre, 2285. multiplied by 25 equals 5,700, giving 575. for the equivalent price per imperial quarter. It may be serviceable further to mention that a variation of one franc per hectolitre is about equal to that of 2s. 3d. per imperial quarter. CHELTENHAM AND OXFORD RAILWAY.—The com pletion of this undertaking promises many indirect bene fits, beyond the direct and substantial one of furnishing the shortest line to Oxford and London. The building now occupied as the General Hospital and Dispensary will be required for the purposes of the works, and the town—by an advantageous arrangement with the com pany —will secure what has long been considered a desi• deratum—an extended building on an improved site. The officials of the company attended the quarterly beard at the hospital on Monday last, and proposed to purchase the hospital at cost price —to pay in advance expense of plans and specifications for a new erection, and also the full purchase-money one month after the passing of their Bill, the hospital to be carried on in the present building, for one year after that period. The proposal was unanimously accepted by the governors of the charity, and the time is not far distant when a new hospital and dispensary —ornamental to the town, and in every way adapted for the benevolent purpose for which it was established —may be expected to rise on the Sandford-field, a site most eligible, and the land for which was secured some years since. We find, also, by reference to the deposited plans, that the Grammar School will be required, and that, consequently, an other school-house will have to be erected at the expense of the company. This will afford an excellent oppor tunity of increasing the extent of the bulding, and also of extending the usefulness of the school.—Cheltenham Chronicle. ESCAPE OF A PRISONER FROM WAKEFIELD GAOL, AND RECAPTURE.—On Saturday evening a young man named Joseph Ibbotson made his escape from the Wake field House of Correction, to which he had been com mitted for two years, at the last York assizes, on a charge of passing base coin. He had broken through the roof of a privy, and, after climbing over several walls, precipitated himself from a height of about six yards to the ground. his escape, it is said, must have been attended with imminent danger. His flight having been discovered, information was sent to the neighbour ing towns; and on Monday evening, about half an hour after receiving notice of the occurrence in Manchester, the prisoner was in the custody of Mr. Superintendent Taylor, by whom he was given up to the Governor of the Wakefield prison. He had been twice convicted at the borough sessions in Manchester, heinv on one occa sion sentenced to three months' imprisonment in the New Bailey, and afterwards confined for twelve months in Lancaster Castle.—Manchester Guardian.- NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. 1 PORTSMOUTH, THIIRSDAY.—The Lords of the Admi ralty have decided upon superseding the Victory in the ordinary guard duties of this port.
