THE REGISTRATIONS. CITY OF LONDON. At half-past ten o'clock yesterday morning the Bar rister proceeded with the revision of the householders' lisr, in the wards of Cheap, Cordwainer, and Dowgate. Mr. James hod, who was down in the list of voters for the occupation of a house, 53, Watling-street, was objected to on the ground that he had not been rated fur the house during the time prescribed by law. The overseer was examined, from whose evidence it appeared that Mr. Iz - )d was rated on the first rate, not for No. 53, but for a house and offices at No.46,Watling street, and that he occupies the lower part of No. 46.

BRADFORD, WEDNESDAY NIGUT.—A most important and influential meeting was held this afternoon at Brad ford, the object of which was to originate a movement in Yorkshire for the moral and social improvement of the female factory operatives. The Vicar of Bradford, the Rev. Dr. Scoresby, occu pied the chair, and on the platfurin were Lord Viscount Morpeth, William Busfeitd, E q., M.P , and a large party of clergymen, dissenting ministers, and manufacturers.ot the town and neighbourhood. -.At tile commencement or the meeting the Rev. J. COOPER read letters from various influential persons, who had been invited to be present at the meeting, among others from Lord Ashley. His Lordship expressed the highest .safiSfaCtion at the propusad movement for the improvement of the factory women, and promised his aid in its promotion; he, how - ever, declined attending the meeting, conceiviug -th a t, holding the principles he did w.th referenbe to the hours of labour in factories, presence might rather ha fOr evil than for good. The Rev. Gentleman then read a report of the proceedings that had taken place pre,ious to the meeting in the, com mittee cif gentlemen by whom it had been promoted. This 'document suggested the plans which were subse quently adopted in the various resoletions brought for ward and approved by the meeting. The Rev, Dr. SCORES/3Y followed in a speech of eon . siderable length, in which he forcibly set forth the de plorable moral and social condition of many of the female factory operatives of the district, and called upon Lord Morpeth to move the first resolution. Lord MORPETU presented himself, amidst great cheer ing, to`address the meeting. He said, Mr. Vicar, Ladies, and Gentlemen—l willingly ,comply with the command which you have just irnpoied upon me, to move the first resolution; though I feel that after the full explanation, and the forcible appeal which we have just heard from yourself, little more can be Wanting to fill up th e out lines of the schemo which 'll4Pis been, I think, your happy privilege to hi - VP;brought before this meeting,— (Hear.) Before I pieceed further, I must offer. some apology that I should bp obliged to quit. proceedings even so interesting as these before I should have-wished to do so, and for the sarne s .reason to restrict the space of my own observations, because I happen to have had an engagement for some time in the neighbouring town of Keighley, to attend their agricultural meeting. But though perhaps I ought to have been there by this hour, yet when my attention was called to the 12,000 female workpeople in this town, I felt they had superior claiMs, that they 'are more important objects, that they are nobler works of the great Creatol, than even the fat cattle and the goodly beeves that I may find in the upper part of Airedale.—(Hear, htar.) I will, with your permission, read the resolution which has been entrusted, to my charge, which -is to this effect-- "That as it appears on careful inquiry, that not fewer than 12,000 young women are engaged in the various departments of the trade of Bradford, of which number 2,000 are married, and 1,200 live in lodgings; and as the employment and situation of these young women, espe cially the married and those that reside with their own , amilies, lay them' under great disadvantages, expose them to many moral dangers, it is the duty, not only of their employers, but of all the inhabitants of the town— a 'duty commended by powerful motives to Christian minds—to cherish a kindly sympathy with this large and interesting part of the community, assist them in efforts to improve and elevate their own character and condition, and leave no practicable and prudent means untried of promoting their welfare." Now, I think the reasoning of thisiresolution must commend itself to all. I am aware that differences of opinion have prevailed upon a subject on which I assure you I do not mean to enter, and which I think we have been rightly cautioned against entering upon on the present occasion, because it is desirable to avoid all unnecessary difference of opi nion where we have so much common matter which we may pursue. But differences of opinion had existed in ',hit town, and in the whole_ manufacturing districts of England, With regard to the proper time to allot to labour in lastories; but whether you fix the number of hours at twelve, at eleven, at ten, at nine, or at eight, still I think it would be felt to be desirable to protect these 12,000 female factory workers from the dangers and the temptations to which . they are more peculiarly exposed; to provide means for their finding decent and healthy longings ; to stand in the stead, as it were, in the case ,f the unprotected, of their natural parents and guardians when they cannot resort to their kindly shel ter ; to provide for them when sick the facilities for oh taining medical attendanc e and medicines ; to inculcate upon'them lesSons of forethought and prudence ;_ and surround them ' as mu c h as poss i ble with the comforts, the privileges, the sanctities of a home.—(Loud cheers.) In these items I have endeavoured to. enumerate as far as I can those benevolent purposes which the promoters of the scheme which "you, . sir, have brought before us seem to have had mainly, in view. Amongst the other recommendations of this .scheme to our app ro b a ti on, I think it a point t o he speckl u lly commended that it does 'lot Rita at any exclusiveness 'or any sectariatcaiStinc dons.--(flear, hear.) Indeed, in a community divided l)y so much difference of opinion, however desirable in the abstract I should have thought the objects compre hended in this scheme to be, I feel that I could hardly myself become a party to it, if it built up the wall of partition among any of those who arc entitled to partake of its benefits.—(Hear, hear.) With reference to the )(Tuner object to be held in view, at least one of the primary objects, the providing of commodious and healthy lodgings for the unprotected daughters of toil in the fac tories, I observe that. th e report w hi c h w as rea d made special mention of an association with which I have been connected in the metropolis of this county, for providing lodging accommodation for the industrious classes. I hope this institution will be able to carry their benificent purpose very generally into. effect ; and it seems to me that the object of the scheme contemplated co-day is strictly calculated to fall within the sphere of ;ts operations. lam not at liberty to mention in parti cular- terms that any scheme set on foot in this town can be incorporated with the main association, but I am as sured that by consultation together we shall he able to give.that general assistance to the local scheme which the- Metropolitan Association is:so well calculated to bestow. In listening to the observations which you, sir, have made upon this occasion, I could not help feeling chat besides the practical experience and the long op portunities of . observation which you have enjoyed luring your residence in this town as a minister of the Gospel, you also have been, to a considerable degree, in spired by the wish to set on foot some such scheme as this, by the impressions which you received during your personal visit to the great manufacturing establishment at L on the continent of America. Now, I can not wonder that you received such impressions on that spot, for I myself, like you, have also been in that quarter, and I remember writing at the time, so strong my own impressions were on the subject, that if a ra-tive of England could feel ashamed or grieved for his country, it would be when, with the recollection of what he bad seen in such towns as Leeds and Bradford, he should stand among the female factory - labourers of Lowell.—(L ou d c h eers .) Now I know that there are many cir cumstances to explain to a cer :ain extent this difference. I t i s a new c ountry—land i s comparatively of no v a l ue — no exten t of ground is grudged for suitable lodging—.accommodation for public work3—in short, no account is made of space.—(flear, hear.) • Then the persons who constitute the female labouring classes are almost' entirely the daughters of farmers—comfortable farmers, who live over the wide surfaceof that country, and w h o me rely come to th e manufacturing town for two 07. three years, in order that by their work during that period they may gain a sufficient amount of wages to return home ready pro vided with a marriage dowry—(Cheers)—and hence it eappone that the circumstances of their position give them the motives, while the regulations of the _place give them the facilities for orderly, circumspect, and blameless conduct, by any departure from which they reel that they would- at once losa..*este in- the estimation ,/f their associates, and that it would operate ruinously upon the prospects of persons in their4station for the re mainder of their lives. But. afters!' the explanation, amid after all the allowances .of which the case admits, it mast, I am sure, be . felt by every eye. witness "who has an opportunity of inspection him self that the contrast is not gratifying to English or to our old world prepossessions.—(Hear, hear.) But, as wa heard in this very room last night, there does not seem to be anything in the cha racter or constitution of Englishmen which unfits us for appreciations and just discernment in matters of taste. thatus to-day, we we I should be still more sorry to admit that there is any thing in the character and composition.of Englishwomen 9 before you which would unfit them, for decent and virtuous living. such a pro -(Cheers.) All that we say is, give them the facilities, ;rive them the protection, g v= them the s afeguards, give tabor us s th w e p m r o o t n i o ve u s ile t e ha t t ha a t r t e h f e b y u a n r d e a u t na L t o t w o c s d t l and the coin aerti s a o s n are in a fair way of opening that comparison upon fair grounds, and of giving it- at least a begi nn i uo . wo ,„ in the A have lau had s ) sketched Abd l o t u b t ib t k o right way, to rescue from danger that portion of our fe male working population which is justly entitled to our sympathy and to our exertions.—(llear.) On this ac count I have been most glad to take a part in the pro ceedings of this, day, however short and inadequate that may be. I think this scheme does honour to those who ;lave set it on foot, and' I heat tdy hope that th e y nu 3 ., in the results which will follow their deliberations and ex ertions, and which will follow our meeting this morn ing,.find not only the barren credit of the well-intended purpose, but the solid and lasting satisfactio n o f the lie _ .annplished good.—( Hear, and loud .appl ause. , ) And I would put it to you, when you reflect upon the one hand on the drawbacks and dan,era which beset he poor working women and working girls, in the first place, all the physical and material discomfort of their position—the sordid li:t!ging— toe ill ventilated garret—the over-crowded apartments, anti all the far more griev • ous moral and spiritual evils with which this state of things is necessarily connected—the bad 'com panionship—the evil associations—the ever-open gin 'shop—the midnight street—the solicitations ,to guilt— the easy path to infamy, and, what is still worse than infamy itself, the mind made indifferent to it, and the conscience become callous to its shame; and when, be sides reflecting upon all this mass of material and moral evil, you further remember whom those persons are on whose behalf we hive come forward this day — on behalf we urge you to save them from such dangers and such dangerous destinies —that they are the persons wbo, by themselves, furnish by their daily toil no inc msider able portion of the stupendous processes of- our English manufactures—that they must he the wives ant com panions of the great mass of the English workmen—that they must be the mothers of the coming generations of those stho are to succeed their fathers in the vrst inhe ritance of English labour—,that they, by a -law the ne-; cessity of which they cannot escape, must stamp the character and habits of the-rising race - of our coaritr) 's artisan and labourers ; when they are invated with. such mighty responsibility, both for good arid for evil, I trust that you, niy friend , , will not al together re f use your assent, your exertions, your contributions to this unostentatious and.well-ennsPeral ,plan to t.vert as much as possible of the evil which is ac tually impending, and to secure as much . as -possible of the good Which', if you fail us not, may be attainesl. (At the conclusion of his Lordship's eloquent a tdress lie was greeted pith hearty applause ) W. Busmni), Eq., M.P., in a few remarks expres sive of his decided sympathy in the cause of the roe( ting, seconded the resolution, which was put and. adopted unanimously. The Rev. WALTER SC ITT, President of the Airedlile College, then moved a resolution embracing . the - plans suggested by the committee fur carrying out tho objects of the meeting.' These were-1.

SPIRIT of .the PUBLIC JOURNALS. trom TUE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES:-e-The position of the Minister whom 'the pregress of events, the struggles of party, the workings of public opinion, and even the vicissitudes of the sky, have conspired to place at the head of this realm, is one which a moralist might select to cure the most insatiable and most daring ambition. In the approaches of a fa mine' aggieVeted by a social disord er w hi c h c ent u r i es have been nursing, it is his tremendous respontihility to hold the key of the national store. A few yearse-al most a few months—since, it was pointed out to the ad miration of England that the manufacturing masses of Lancashire, deprived of employment, sat down to die in the sight of warehouses full to overflowing with food.. That was . a noble spectacle, and it h as to ld. Resigna tion has wrought a miracle such as the boldest agitators did 'not ' venture to expect. Would that either the case were as simple, the remedy as obvious, the peo ple as resigned, in the present instance. An island, a social state, a race is to be changed. The surface of the land, its divisions, its culture, its proprietors, its oc cupiers, its habitations, its manners, its law, its lan guage, and the heart of a people who for two thousand years have' remained unalterable within the compass of those mighty changes which have given us European civilisation, _are all' to be created anew. That is only part of the task which a destiny that seems to mock alike the aspirations of benevolence and of ambition, im poses on the Minister of this State. He has not cnly to feed the people out of an insufficient store, but change their very nature meantime. Should he fail both to meet the crisis and improve the opportunity, he will be reproached not only with the horrors of instant famine, but with helping to perpetuate a national degradation. There is a melancholy concurrence in the opinions: of most Irishnien that five years at least must elapse before in any pare of Ireland the peasantry will be able to raise a new species of food. And even this hypothesis is made on grCeteds 'more favourable than a minute con templation of the case warrants us in assuming. Five years must elapse before even the *more docile and . trac table portion 'of the peasantry will be able to cultivate a new and different species of food, But how long a period must intervene before the more intractable, the more impAient, and the more despondent part of theni habit ate themselves to the idea—mach mere to the' - stidf-e-of novel and unwonted, egrieultneeT A. lepgth- eof time-e-greater than We - 'like to .re volve in elle mind,—must pass over ere the tillage be. changed aodahe subsistence of the people created afresh. What is to.leedone in the interval? Already the com plaint is .that the baronies have overtaxed themselves; that they.areas , essed is the labour-fund far above their actual value. , -This by itself would be found to he a se, rious inc:invenienee, were the calamity which it is prep posed to obviate of a temporary nature. But this is not so. The most sanguine dare not hope that one year will bound the sweep and severity of our affliction. The 1 . 91- medy, therefore, which applied to the first year's evil would be inconvenient is, when proposed for the second, impossible or ruinous. To repeat the process of super taxation—to renew the great promissory note to Go vernment—would be simply to beggar the landowners without conferring a permanent benefit on the people, ore-what is equally important—a pernsanent improve ment on the 'land. The landlords would fly from— whilst their tenants would perish on a soil ex hausted by mortgages and crowded with a famished and reckless population. Frightful as such .a' state of things -would .be, it is no vague picture of the - imagination. It is just the very state to which Ireland must inevitably be reduced, if the sums now collected e and about to be collected, are flung away on works:which will add nothing to the national wealth, and supply nothing to the national want. The first object of Government, after doing the best, as we admit Lord Beshorough seems to be doing, for the init• mediate exigency, should be -to provide against its cer - tain recurrence ; -to devise means for making the famine of the next year less oppressive than that of the present, and that of the following easier than that of the next ; so that the weight of suffering may be diminished season by season, enttil Providence has blessed the industry of the people and the energy of their advisers by new modes and new fruits of husbandry. This can only be effected by taking such measures as shall insure the cul tivation—the renewed, the general, and the indefatigable cultivation—either of such grain as may itself feed the people, or be exported as the medium of procuring for them a proper food. To' this object the attention both of Government and of landed proprietors should be directed. In this, as in every other emergency which demands vigour of design and promptness of execution, the plans of the landlord will be thwarted and his directions contravened by the inex tricable perplexities which beset the Irish question. That we must expect. There will be difficulty beyond what Englishmen-find-it easy to conceive in inducing the Irish peasant to till acres for the reception of other crops than the potato. Will the difficulty be too great for the landlord to °vete:Menet? Will it be great enough to shift upon the Government-7- This problem must sooner or later be solved. Government .has become a large money-lender. It;may have to 'become so again oven on a more comprehensive scale. But it hardly appears as yet thateGovernmeeet has succeeded in getting that which ordinary ineney-lenders never fail to obtain— security.. .Suppose the landowners find themselves un able to-repay 'wlip,t hats been advance:l them by Par liament—and this ).3,450 'extravagant supposition— w h a t then ? What fq!lie.tly, will the- Government have ? Nune that we can see ; at least, none that would be worth a motnent'l.effort, or a farthing's 'outlay. But, if the money now. advanced by -the Treasury be sacri ficed to projects of .lavish but useless expenditure --to the consstuc.tion of trafficless roads and shipless harbours —or to the mere equipment of private luxury 'and com fort—then Weed will the stewards- of the Imperial purse have complicated a great temerity with a great in justice, by lavishing away loans without a guarantee either for their discharge, or their safe and profitable in vestment. It . has, therefore, been suggested that the '3overnment should constitute itself a 'mertgagee on a large scale, and should itself enter on the lands- which it has relieved by its advances, leaving, of bourse, to the proprietor his equity of redemption. That such a scheme should have been thought of for one moment only proves the desperate_ character of the emergency. No thing, in faet, c mid be more contrary to the genius of a constitutional Government, which - aims to be an impartial - arbiter between all classes, and never descends from the council-room to occupy, the place of Any subordinate vocation. A British Premier will probably feel as great a scruple to- play the part of a national landlord as to intrude into the office of judge. Such a scheme would, in fact, only b 3 adding new elements of .disorder to a chaos which already confesses the presence of too many. henceforth the national landlord, the national tenant, the national agent, national leases, national processes of distress, would be added to the dramatis personz that already so uncomfortably crowd the stage. If so much is now ex pected frozn the worth, the ability, and forbearance of the private landowner, what extravagtrit expectations would usher in the rein of the national proprietor! But it is easier to rano objections to such a scheme than to refute them. 'rho Scriptural character of•the precedent claims for it at least a decorous reception. But it would be difficult to tstablish a, parallel between the patient children of Irani, the Pharaohs, and the Delta of the Nile, on the one hand, and the Celt, the British Govern ment, and the Emerald Isle on the other. We can only cies§ the scheme with those dreamy projects which, impracticable as they May be in themselves,like the mysterious gleams of morning twilight, do at least pre pare for great 'changes._ And he must indeed he-blind who does not see that the present relation' :of rich and poor in Ireland must precede some great revolution in the tenure of landed property. CHRONICLE.—The fate of Sir Robert Peel's eve.r memovable'purpose of the Ist of Noveniber is ready one of the oddest and most 4 11 9 111 4194 3 mishaps on record in the obituary of good intentions. Never was there a more extraordinary instance of the unfortunate casual ties to which even a strong man's strongest purposes are liable 00 oomin g in collision with th e wor ld o f act i on. That Sir Bobert,Peol was right when he proposed to his Cabinet to open the ports to the duty-free admission of foreign zrain has long since been acknowledged, both by' the Legislature and by public opinion; with as near an approach to absolute unanimity as Can ever be expected in a free countr, wh os e const i tut i onal liberties include the privilege of - initidulgeee in all kinds and degrees of mental eccentricity. He was right in his data of fact and probability ; right in his praetical eon, elusion; right ecoording to precedent; right according to reason; right aceording to the free- traders; right accord— ing to the protection'sts right in every concelealk• 'way in which a man can be right•; and now-m•ne than ever shown to have been right by recent events. Even the one solitary d frieulty which ste,od in his way--th,• . rcluat'ince of some of his collo - agues, presunied 'reluctance of Parnell - lent, to accept the evoweel ulteeor consequeneee of the proposed move—has been • sutase quentry obviated, by the Legislatarta's :formal atiiin of tha whole scheme of policy which ".open ports" threatened to be put in peril.

Judging frorn. the promp titude with which our first mention of this subject, a few days since, hasi been responded,to,by several olour Con' ' temporaries, and from what we believe, to be thofeeling hf the public, we do not believe that the approaching Ist of November will find us still waiting for the reali sation of the late Premier's long-dated and almost -for gotten intent. That interesting anniversarT will, we quite hope and expect, be signalised, or anticipated, by the adoption of the counsels that have given its precle cesser a name in history. lIERALD.—if safety were to be found in a number of. organs and a multitude of 'counsellors, the preset)! Government would certainly be beyond the reach of danger. But in Cabinets, as in culinary concerns: it is sometimes found that too many cooks seoil the 'broth, s and that a multitude of counsellors sometimes' darken knoWledge. It was announced yesterday, in 'the Chro nicle, Daily News, and Times, in precisely the semi words, or nearly so, " that Mr. Justice Erle will go to the Queen's Bench, and Mr. Vaughan Williams to .the Common Pleas,'-' though the appointment of. ;he latter has not yet been gazetted, and - though many well in formed persons in the profession still . think that Mr. David Dundas will be the new puisne judge of the Queen's Bench. But, notwithstanding the strong inte rest of the Dukoof Sutherland, and the general and de . served popularity o f M r . D un d as as an am i a bl e an d ac complished gentleman, we believe Lord Cottenham will insist on the appointment of Mr. Vaughan -Williams, certainly one of the safest and most• learned lawyers in Westminster Hall, and the 'greatest leral writer living, with the exception of Sir Edward Sugden, 'Mr. Sergeant Stephen, and Mr. Starkly. We could ourselves wish to see the latter gentleman placed in a position commensurate with his abilities and-attain ments as a scientific lawyer; and if he a ere•not above 62 years of age, we should gladly have seen him:elevotee to the judicial bench. But at that edvanoed period of life to tax the faculties.of man with laboriou4 and onerous duties is neither wise nor politic in reference,. to the in: terests of the state, nor is it quite fair to Alta honest fame or professional renown of the inaividit:i on Wham honours,. his earlier due, are too late conferred. Th a t i t Was the intention of Lord Brougham to have made Mr. , Starkie the very next judge, previously to.hie resignation of the Great" Seal on the 21st November, 1,E04, is, pretty well knoWn, and was applauded by 'the Eut, Mr. Starkie had then scar ce ly paseed hi 4 firrieth year,: and trVelve years after the-passing of - tieM4ClimaCe.

We trust, how ever, that model of judges, Lord Cottenhatn,' will see fit, on the:first vacancy, to remove Mr. Sergeant Stephen. who has not passed his fifty-seventh year, from Bristol to-a seat on the judicial bench of the metropolis, and confer the vacant commissionership of bankrupts - on Mr. Starkie, one of the greatest of our legal authors, as cer • tainly . one of the most scientific of our lawyers. In America such a man had taken th e ran k and been ho noured.and rewarded as the Dents, the Storys,' and the Marshalls; and as it is, his name is as well knoWn. and more appreciated in America than in England. Mr. Starkie has ever avowed himself a constitutional Whig, and this ought to be no impediment in his way with so strong a politician as Lord Cottenham. But wo firmly believe, apart from fitness, political opinions will -•weigh not—nor'ought they to weigh—a feather in the scale To return, however, to the actual vacancy. This night's Gazette will probably dispel all illusions, and prove, to the credit of Lord Cottenham, the judicious selection of Mr. Vaughan Williams. TROTTING MATCH AGAINST TIME.--A trotting match against time came off on Tuesday, at Cheltenham, and excited an unusual interest in the sporting circles. The affair hat been looked forward to anxiously in eer: taut quarters for some time past, partly owing to the known capabilities of the horse which was matched, and partly owing to the prowess of the backer, Mr. Alexan der Buirke, of trotting notoriety. The following is the agreement entered into between Mr. Alexander Burke and Mr. W. P. liurlstone (of the King's Head Inn):--- "! Mr. Burke backs Mr. Lovesy's black horse (purchased of Mr. Harris) to trot twelve and three.quarters in 45 minutes, for 501. aside, the Match to come off within six weeks, on the road lea dingC from Cheltenham to Tewkes bury. The horse to trot under saddle or,in harness; the winner,to pay for two doien of wine." . Finally the day was fixedlor Tuesday, 'Octoher 6, between the hours of eleven and three. Accordingly,. at,-two o'clock, yester day, Mr. Burke, attended by 'numerous friends, re paired. to the ; Worcester Arms, .Tewkesb ur y -road, the place fixed for" the start; -and shortly after that hour he set off, having chosen to drive the horse in harness in his light gig. Numerous bets were made pro a cm , AOioe chooong the horse, and others backing lime. Tpe-,rozid `lvai_not in a.very good condition, a great qmpot,ityt.oA, rain' having fallen during the morning. The. tiorse, : f seemed, however, in excellent condition, and went ali the distakee at a " slashing " pace, several of thcse - who rode along on first-rate horses having been put to their mettle to keep up (at a gallop) with the trotter. Ur. Burke went half the distance otit,'then turned and cane in ag tin; winnjng the match easily in 42 minutes. The horseeseemed not in the least distressed at the close - a this splendid performance. Of course there ‘fas a large concourse of spectators to' witness the exciting scene. - 7 ,-. ! Cheltenham Chronicle. TUB WHITTINGTON Can.—A very large and respectable meeting was held last evening, in the Hall of Commerce, - Threadneedle-street, of those interested in letting up a club under the above title, the objects of which were to Make up a literary and scientific club, somewhat upon the plan of the Manchester Atherimum and Birmingham Athenic Institute. Mr. Traico having been "called to the chair, the report of the committee was read. The proposed terms of subscription were 10 guineas to constitute a life member persons; living within seven miles of the General Post Office to pay-10s. 6d. entrance fee, and an annual subscription of 1/. Is.; ladies, 10s. 6 1. annually, without any entrance feel and persons living.- beyond :he distance of seven miles to pay half of the- aboie. The Chairman then addressed the meeting at cons4lerablc length, upon the nature and ; objects of this institution, upon the usefulness of which he dwelt for some time, and pointed out how much such an institution was wanted fur the use of not only the vast class of persons in the employment of the gigantic ,rehants of the City, but also for• the admis.iion o•, ladies, whose society in such places they had hitherto, by absurd coLventionalisms, been deprived of. Some resolution's - were proposed, foundel upon the report, and which:were spoken to at some length by the proposers sod seconders. The committee - and treasurer were then .appointed, the customary votes of-thanks passed, Lind the meeting separated. • THE IRON TRIDE.—BI !WING HA :11", TRUE SDA Y EVEN'ING.—The quarterly meeting of the iron and coal, roasters of South StafforiAire, held today at the Town was .very numerously attended; There we're pre sent the princilOs or representatives of nearly all 'die large houses in the district, and many large buyers. .Thee g.neral announcefnent .on. all sides was that trade) was -good, an abundance of orders on ' the books, and a Pros pect of daily increase.

No in quiry has been made, and his remains are consigned to the silent tomb. Now let us for one: mot - neat consider what would hare been done if his Lordship had happened to die after a dose of Morison's rills, even though he had been at the brink of the grave when he Commenced them. In tile first place, we should have had the coro ner's inquest,. before which Would have bethi painted, in horrible colours, by the doctors, the appearances after death, enough to frighten the poor jurymen out of their wits. The doctor-ridden old ladies would have trial, " Oh, what a horrible case, these riasty piny should be put down ; a young man of thirty-one," Soc. Than would have followed ha due wars 3 the usual verdict,." Died from taking Morison's pills ;" Which announcement would have gone the round of all the papers, both hi town and country, with comtneits not the most favourable. This would have closed the first act. The second act of the play would have been for a doctor to charge, if possible, some person with manslaughter for administering to his Lordship the pills, which farce the doctors would have brought in due form (as they did lately against the chemist and druggist at Exeter, where- they were, however, most luckily detected by the Judge, Platt) before one of her Majesty's judges, in order to give intrortatteefaullnldche:ctolaarttil,tiooctfttoihrtehyierl proceedings. The usu a l verdict of " guilty " would have been re a , t rb u r e ne p d a , p a er n s d n t ,o h n e ld d o o f et c o o n: i rwseoutitlldl hhaavveecotntiauimitei'db g t h h t:i p i a n r a ty ug i hz , t v r i i d a e l, ly r d er iff d e ie r t e i n a t an t s h e e n t s e c n e e c , when fr' mattersu how widely different is the Scene When the Party Ita died (it matters not how) under what is call e d .regular medical treatment . Not a word is said. The theory under which the doctor acted is never ques tioned, although it is well kn own that scarcely two of them agree, The story then is, "Ah, poor f e ll ow, his time was come ; ever •thineg, has been done," &c. " The doctor t o ld us how it would be. everything a clever fellow." But is this ease of Lord Waldegrave's isolated ? Don't we see every day in the newspapers deaths of persons in the prime of life, who, we are justified in presuming, have had the regular medicartreatment ? Then we ask again, in the name of justice and common sense, why are not inquehts imstituted in such cases? There is no law that states that no inquest shall be held where the Party has died under regular medical treatment—the law professes to make ao distinction—are not suck inquests, then, on parties who do not and will not have doctors' treatment, a flagrant interference with medical liberty? Is it not saying, in other words, "Employ a doctor, and pay him Ilia fees, or there will be au inquest ?" We cannot conceive anything more disgraceful to an enlightened country, or a more underhanded way et putting fees into the pockets of a p art i cular class. To insure the doctor being paid, the clergyman is not to bury without his certificate. Here's a pretty wheel within wheel for you, gentle reader I Everything connected with the British College of Health, from its commencement, nearly twenty years agO, has been carried on above board, and in the world's light. They have nothing to conceal; and the Hygeian agents throughout the country, amounting to many hundreds, are open to .public examination. With respect to the secrecy which deetors talk about respecting Morison's Pills, in order to attach the epithet "quackery," it is a weak invention of the enemy, there being no secret; the only thing contended for is that that medicine is the * * belt vegetable purgative 'known to Hygeists. invent a better, and they will immediately adopt it. With respect to -the important fact, viz., the cases of cure effected by Morison's Pills, now amounting to upwards of 500,000, we shall place that question, as Dr. Cobb, of ille City (a most respectable medical prac titioner) placed it, who, in answer to Sir Frederick Pollock, the pre sent Lord Chief Baron, said, " Either my theory is wrong or the witnesses for Morison's Pills are perjured l" which admission of Dr. Cobb's the public will bear in mind amounts to this—either the wit nesses for Morison's Pills were perjured, or that such poisons as prussic acid, arsenic, &c. &c., should not be given " medicinally," for it is quite clear that if those witnesses spoke the truth they must have heed cured without the help of such poisons. Issued by the Members of the British College of Health; New-road, London, for and on be - half of the Body of Hygeists. * Doctors may think nothing of cutting up a dead body for the Purpose of an inquest, but. how is it with friends ? Would they like to see a dear relative mangled and paraded about before a jury ? N.B.—lt should never be forgotten that the British College of Health owes its rise and progress . to the people, and not to the sub setiptions of the rich or great. • OBSERVE.—This Estiibliihnient will be closed on 3IONDA7 the 12th, and TUESDAY, the lath instant, and re-open on WED t•ISDAY mornins, October 14th, a t s ev e n o ' c l oc k . THE ELECTION OF 'LORD MAYOR In London, the yearly election of Mayor Is counted a very important affair ; Each_ man has his friends who support him right hearty, And etch has his foes, just according to party. • But party is out of the question with us ; We have nothing to do with the candidates thus. We don't have a wish ('tisn't right that we should) t , Tn meddle with Carroll, or Hooper, or Wood. In fact, this selection of subject is made ith a view just to hint at the Lord Mayor of Trade. 'Tis MOSES in this sense, that's Mayor of the City ; Let's sing him a " Car,r-ul-/," let's sing him a ditty. While Lord Mayors in general only appear • As " Majesties" during the space of a year, The Lord Mayor of Tra te, through the fame he has earn'd, Is year after year to his office return'd. When MOSES solicits the public support Ills canvassing battle is easily fought, For no competition can stand in the way, But MOSES is certain of gaining the day. Yes, MOSES, lam'd MOSES, elicits the votes On account of his trewsers, his waistcoats, and coats ; And ev'ry one shouts, " Lend your id ! lend your aid !"

Her acting and her vocalisation were 'serf, ct ; exquisitely did she give the opening recitative, and the pathetic arias + which immediately_ follows it; "Okbeantifu rriight." . ' ILirrison was, on the whole, good in this• scene, but he marred it sadly' at. , the - conclusiop, by voeFerating in the voice of " I - could not share thy life, I will thy death." He shouted this at the top of his voice. 1•TOw, considering that - he has only just partially recovered from a fainting fit of exhaustion, and considering also that she whom he loves better than life, is at that moment stretelled, as he thinks, dead before him, it •is morally and physically impassible that Jules shoold_havnuttered those words in such a tone, and corthequently it is. artistically a great fault. The audience felt it was such, for a feeble attempt at applause in the gallery , was instantly suppressed by an universal and ener getic hush ! The far- famed fin a l e " Th e rapture dwelling," was exquisitely given by Madame Bishop, Her foriture in the finale was beautiful exceedingly ; her voice .sounded like a beautiful Ante, 'perfectly under the command of- the most accomplithed-per former. The expression was all that could be desired, but more than all, there was a truth to nature, which entitles Madarne Bishop - ,t& take high rank as a Ilra ,natie artist of the highest order. It was gi'ven„ musically speaking; most delightfully,- most correctly, most artistically, but with a degree of -exhaustion which one would naturally expect:from the situation, that of a person just recovered from the . Jaws Of death in the desert. Madame Bishop exhibited throughout the opera a fine appreciation of the.various-phases of the - character, and rrowhere was that, more : finely 6r more correctly exhibited than- :where a less ancomplished artist would have sang':'' tether to c hi hit her own powers of Vocal, execution than to hare • been true;to nature..
