~..._ IRELAND. THE FOOD RIOTS.-PROCLAMATION OF THE LORD-LIE U TENAN T. DUBLIN, OCT. 3.—ln consequence of the recent food riots and tumultuous assemblages in the south, the Lord- Lieutenant has issued the following proclamation, which shows that whilst his Excellency is adopting all possible means to mitigate the calamity that has fallen upon the country, he is determined to maintain order, even by rigorous measures, and to afford to the trade in provi sions that protection without which society could not hold together : " Dublin Castle, Oct. 2, 1846. " Whereas it has been represented to the Lord-Lieu tenant, that in various parts of the country numerous assemblages of people have committed acts of violence, by attacking the shops of bakers and the stores of mer chants, and by interrupting the free traffic in provisions, and otherwise disturbing the public peace: " His Excellency is determined, by every means in his power, to protect that lawful trade in the articles of food, the complete security of which is essential to the sub sistence of the people; and he earnestly warns all per sons of the danger which they incur by taking part in these illegal proceedings. " The Lord-Lieutenant has also been informed, that a disposition has in some instances been manifested by the labourers employed in public works to resist the ar rangements which the officers of the board of works have made, in order to ensure their proper execution, by task or piece work, as well as to endeavour, by violence, to obtain a higher rate of wages. These officers are acting under the express directions of the Government, and if this improper interference is persevered in, the Lord-Lieutenant will be compelled to order the works to be discontinued. " The Lord-Lieutentant confidently relies on the con tinued support of magistrates and others of station an d influence in his efforts to maintain tranquillity, as well as to mitigate the effects of the calamity with which it , has pleased Divine Providence to afflict this country : and he desires, in an especial manne r , t o th an k th e ministers of religion, of all persuasions, for their useful and exemplary conduct on this trying occasion. "By his Excellency's command, " H. LABOUC HERE." There are no further accounts of food riots from the country this morning. In Cork and other counties em ployment on public works has commenced ; and the Government are affording all possible facilities in order that the peasantry should be at work in all directions. ADDRESS FROM THE REPEAL ASSOCIATION ON THE FOOD RIOTS. The following address, proposed by Mr. John O'Con nell, M.P., at the instance of the Repeal Association, has been printed, with a view to circulation in all parts of the country : ♦DDRESS OF THE LOYAL NATIONAL REPEAL ASSOCIATION OF IRELAND TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND. " Fellow Countrymen,—Not until the calamity of famine was aggravated by bloodshed have we ventured to address you. " We know your sufferings—our hearts bleed with yours ; we dreaded to speak, lest reasoning and advice should sound to you as mockery of your misery ! " But now, that blood has been spilt— now that our hearts are dying within us at the thought that this may be but the beginning of the horrors we are doomed to witness, we can no longer—we dare no longer—refrain from crying out to you, in God's name, to be patient — be patient yet awhile, and relief you shall assuredly have. " The Government are doing all that in them lies to supply for this most sudden and utter destruction of your food. Your landlords are exerting themselves to procure you employment. Every one is thinking of your miseries in the sincerest anxiety to relieve them. " For God's sake—for your country's sake—for your own sakes, restrain yourselves. Break not the law— commit not violence—plunge not into crime—bring not the worst wretchedness upon your helpless families, by bringing death upon yourselves ! " If, in the madness of your sufferings, you shall be tempted to spurn at our supplications, yet remember that what we seek to urge upon you is but what your religion teaches and commands—PATIENCE, PEACE, AVOIDANCE OF CRIME, CONFIDENCE LN ALMIGHTY GOD, AND RESIG NATION TO HIS HOLY WILL. " The darkest hour is that before the day ;' and we are at this moment in that dark hour which is to precede the near and glorious eunrise of freedom and happiness and prosperity upon this long afflicted land ! "It is impossible we can ever return to the state of things in which we have been. It is impossible that our people can ever again be screwed down to the lowest point in the scale of existence. They MUST be given their proper place in the social scale. They must be allowed to enjoy the profits of their labour. They must have their hard-earned rents spent in the country. They must have the wasting drains from the country effectually stopped, and its money capital kept at home to vivify, as a fresh and abounding stream, the exhausted and dried up industrial enterprise of the land. " For England's own sake this must be done, else must she be prepared to take, in permanency upon herself, the support of our population—to see her coffers drained of the last skilling, and total bankruptcy brought upon the empire. " PEACE - ORDER PATIENCE - CONFIDENCE IN HEAVEN, and all will yet be welL Meantime be of this assured, beloved countrymen, that while we thus venture to exhort you—we with equal earnestness will cry out again and again to the Government, to continue, and, if possible, increase the efforts to give you FOOD. " Patience then, in the name of your country, and in the most adorable name of God 1" (Signed) " JOHN O'CONNELL, " Chairman of the Committee. " Corn Exchange, Oct. 2, 1846." TROOPS FOR THE DISTURBED DISTRICTS. The Duke of Cambridge steamer, which left this city on Thursday evening, with four companies of the 47th Regiment for Dungarvan, has just returned. The steamer, not being able to make Dungarvan, put into Youghal, and landed the troops there. All was tran• quil in Youghal and the neighbouring districts when the steamer left yesterday, and the accounts from Dun garvan were peaceable. The four companies of the 47th marched at once for Dungarvan. PROPOSED MEETING OF LANDLORDS IN DUBLIN. The letter of Mr. R. Osborne, M.P., which we noticed on Thursday, urged the adoption of Mr. O'Connell's suggestion, for an immediate assemblage of the landed proprietors of Ireland in Dublin, to consult upon mea sures suited to the present emergency. _ It will be perceived by the frillowing documents that a somewhat similar project has been taken up by land lords connected with ♦arious counties:— " TO THE RIGHT HON. THE EARL OF LUCAN. "DUBLIN, SEPT. 26, 1846.—We, the undersigned, request that you will allow your name to be affixed to the following requisition, and to direct your answer to Charles William Hamilton, Esq., 41, Upper Sackville street, Dublin : " Michael Dillon Bellew, Bt. David Roche, Bart. Wm. Blayney Wade Wm. Monsell Robert Archbold, M.P. Charles Doyne Thomas Seymour Wm. Jones Armstrong Robert Bowen Chas. Wm. Hamilton Thomas R. Hardy Wm. Owen Richard A. O'Donnell, Bt. H. B. Coddington. " REQUISITION. " We, the undersigned, request a meeting of the landowners of Ireland, to be held in Dublin, on the da y of next, to press upon her Majesty's Got vernment the importance of at once summoning Par liament, in order that the provisions of the Act entitled the 9th and 10th Vic., chap. 107, may be altered, so as to allow the vast sums of money about to be raised by the presentments under it to be applied to the de velopment of the resources of the laud, rather than in public works of an unproductive nature. " Signature and address to be attached hereto, and re turned." " REPLY. " Castlebar, Oct. 1, 1846. " Sir,—l am of opinion that Parliament must be called together at the earliest possible day, which I have expressed to her Majesty's Government, or I am convinced the country is lost. " I will join in any address to the Queen to that effect, but I cannot sign the requisition forwarded to me, as I totally disapprove of stating that Parliament should be convened solely to consider an Act of I'arlia ment, however mischievous, as the one mentioned most undoubtedly is. " Parliament should, and must be, at once assembled, to consider the frightful state of Ireland, to provide for the present emergencies, and and to legislate against a continuance, or a recurrence, of so severe a calamity as that with which we are afflicted. "My humble opinion is, that an address, very short, and in the above general terms, should immediately pro ceed to her Majesty from the members of the Legislature, and the lieutenants, deputy-lieutenants, and magistracy, or proprietary of Ireland, as shall be preferred. This, I consider, is an address in which every Irishman will readily join, and one that cannot fail to secure the at tention and compliance of Lord John Russell and his Cabinet. " I shall not have it in my power to attend the pro posed meeting in Dublin, nor can I see how such a meet ing can serve any useful purpose.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant, " LUCAN. " Charles William Hamilton, Esq., 41, Upper Sackville•street." We have learned that the circular has been altered, so as to meet the objection of Lord Lucan, and of others, who were of the same opinion as that Noble Lord. There are thirty- four additional proclamations in the Dublin Gazette of last night. The number of extra ordinary presentment sessions convened by the Lord- Lieutenant now amount to two hundred and thirty-six. The provincial journals are again crowded with re ports of presentment sessions, at which grants have L« n liberally made. STATE OF THE COUNTRY. The Cork Examiner of yesterday contains the fol lowing : " MACIIOOSI.-Our Macroom correspondent relates that, on Wednesdsy afternoon, large bodies of men, women, and children, presenting an awful appearance of destitution, mustered together in that town. The work house was the first place to which they went, exhibiting nothing boudering on tumult, notwithstanding their pri vations. Work or food,' was the cry. A respectable inhabitant, Mr. Welply, used all his influence to quell any disposition to riot sihich appeared, with which view, to show his sympathies for their distress, he marched himself in their centre. Our correspondent recognised several in the crowd whom he knew to have been a long period without a morsel of food, yet the multitude did not betray the least symptom of disorder, though their frames seemed to sink from faint neas. Even to the flowers of the garden attached to the workhouse no damage was done, nor to any kind of pro , ' ,may. The physician, who happened to be present.remon --Itrated with them, and pointed out the p ros pects of:re liefi A fter which they returned as peaceably as they el:I -t ^V A's _ tered. The crowd, on returning to the square, was met by Mr. Little, resident magistrate, who called them to gether in the vicinity of the hotel, where the following conversation ensued Are you from the k ountryr Yes,' was the reply.' What brought you to Mac room?" To get employment and food.' Had you no other object of assembling together?' No.' " Mr. Little, s'ltisfied of their sincerity, explained that the local gentry, lay and clerical of every denomina tion, were in emulation to serve the people, and had memorialised the Government for a baronial sessions, although from the great pressure of similar applica tions at the Castle, his Excellency, as it was stated in reply, was obliged to postpone complying with the prayer of it for a few days. Mr. Little continued to say that he was the Government magistrate, and would make an official representation of their extreme destitution as well as their very creditable and orderly demeanour, with which he was highly gratified. The gentlemen around him also bad written to the Lord-Lieu tenant for two hundred pounds for each parish in their district, which if granted would enable them to give em ployment in the interim. A guardian informed him of the intention on the next beard day to adopt a resolution to give those in extreme distress food at the workhouse until the Government should interpose. He repeated he was delighted to witness their patient forbearance and good conduct, which had avoided consequences that would aggravate their present miseries. " Mr. Welply then presented himself, on whom was rivetted each expectant eye, and after having pronounced a high eulogium upon Mr. Little, the stipendiary magis trate, apprised the crowd of the various plans about to be adopted for immediate relief; he concluded by inviting those who suffered from hunger to his place, to which a great number repaired, accompanied by Mr. Welply, who was enthusiastically cheered at the conclusion of his address. " Just as the crowd was separating, the Rev. Mr. Lee, who had been absent from town and returned, addressed the congregated people, in an eloquent and feelingly impressive manner, which confirmed the impressions made by the two preceding speakers, calling upon them to return to their respective homes quietly, and pro mising ere the lapse of many days they would be restored to comparative. comfort. The reverend gentleman's in junction was immediately obeyed, and the town resumed its wonted quietude. " A party of 37 mounted soldiers, which had been dis patched from Ballincollig the preceding day, paraded the streets; but so little apprehension of violence was ex cited, that the force was under orders to return the suc ceeding morning, to be replaced, if circumstances should render it necessary, by a body of infantry." DUNGARVAN, SEPT. 30.—Since Monday an organised band of peasantry have visited the houses of many gen tlemen and farmers in the country, telling them that all they required was employment, but that they would not work under Is. 6d. per day; and on Monday night they pulled down the houses of four farmers residing in the neighbourhood of Cappa, who• were obnoxious to them. The rumour rife in town yesterday was that the peasantry had gone to all the farmers' and gentlemen's houses in search of arms, and were determined to return to the town to take summary vengeance on the military. However, the magistrates have taken every precaution to preserve the peace, and another troop of Dragoons has been sent for to Clonmel, whose arrival is hourly ex pected. They have also taken the precaution, that when any large number of peasantry are seen together they be immediately dispersed, and they will not allow a con course of people to enter the town under any pretext. At present everything wears a tranquil aspect, and busi ness has been resumed, but it is hard to tell how long it will continue so. What makes the attack made on Lord Stuart, at Clashmore, the more unaccountable is, that his Lordship has lately added sixty labourers to the number of those who have been heretofore engaged in his em ployment. Since writing the above I have been informed that a troop of Hussars arrived at two o'clock this morning from Cahir, so that there is now a large disposable force at the command of the authorities, including Cap tain Sibthorp's company of the Ist Dragoons, which were engaged in the conflict.—Two o'clock: Up to this hour all remains tranquil, with the exception of a slight affair got up by a number of women who assembled on the quay, where a quantity of wheat was shipping on board a vessel called the Anne, of Liverpool, from the stores of Mr. J. Donnell. Having thrown the plank by which the men entered the vessel with the corn into the sea, they refused to permit the shipment to be proceeded with. In Youghal the greatest order and decorum exist, and the town is placarded with handbills calling on the people to maintain peace and order, and promising that adequate employment will be provided for them; also informing them that large imports of Indian corn are daily expected from America, which, on arrival, will have a depressing influence on the markets. Between Youghal and Killeagh several new roads have already been struck out, and hundreds of labourers are actively employed thereon, so that affairs wear a more cheering aspect than at the commencement of last week. Indian meal still maintains a very high price, being Is. 10d. per stone in Dnngarvan.—Cork Reporter. The Ballyshannon Herald contains the following par ticulars of the disturbance in Sligo:— "We have this morning received a communication from our Sligo correspondent, which gives a frightful account of the state of that town; he states that on Monday last a vast crowd of the peasantry assembled in town, and walked through the streets in a menacing manner. As a large quantity of cakes was conveying to a shop of Mr. Martin's, they were rushed on and speedily devoured. They then went from one baker's shop to another, and carried off the contents of each. As Mr. Moses Monds' bread cart was passing with bread to his retailers, it was attacked and speedily emptied. Several provision stores were also plundered. On Tues day they again paraded the streets with a long pole, and a loaf suspended from it—they took some bread, &c.— and separated early. On Wednesday they again assem bled, but the mayor had arrangements made to prevent outrage, and they peacefully dispersed. The landed proprietors are using every effort to give employment to the working classes; and many of those who assembled as if wanting work have constant employment if they choose to work, but they prefer plunder to industry. How such things will end no one can tell." Respecting the county of Cavan, the Anglo-Celt, a Conservative paper, contains the following:— " There is too large a number, we regret to think, of outcasts from society, who, under the cognomen of 'Molly Maguires,' assume a power over a misguided portion of the peasantry, which enables them, through the sym pathy of some and the fear of others, to perpetrate their crimes with impunity. These itinerant ruffians make the existing distress an excuse for their acts of violence ; and although we can positively state that their illegal conduct is not by any means the result of the lamentable sufferings of the poor, but, on the contrary, of their own depravity, we fear that unless vigorous measures be at once resorted to, their depredations will become so nu merous and daring as to assume an insurrectionary cha racter. The police should at present be particularly vigilant at fairs, markets, &c., as the fact that the offences we complain 'of are generally perpetrated immediately subsequent to such gatherings leads us to think that they are oftenest concocted there. The best possible proof (if, indeed, proof were wanting) that the resident peasantry of this county do not participate in these offences, is to be found in the accounts of robberies, wherein it is clearly evident that it is the poorer class themselves who are the sufferers." STATE OF TIPPERARY. The Tipperary Vindicator of this day contains the following : " MYSTERIOUS AND AWFUL MURDER.—It is our sad duty to record one of the mcst mysterious, and ut the same time one of the most atrocious murders, of which this county has been the theatre for a long period, and which was perpetrated in the broad noon of Wednesday, on the person of a singularly inoffensive man, near Kil garvan, the residence of that excellent country gentle man, Solomon Cambie, Esq. The deceased, William Latchford, and a man of the name of Hogan, were going home from Kilgarvan about a quarter past twelve o'clock at noon. Latchford had been for some years gatekeeper at Belle Vue, the residence of Edward Biggs, Esq., and he was employed also as tutor by some of the neigh bouring gentry, and, in fact, was returning from giving lessons at Kilgarvan at the usual hour, on the day he met his dismal death at the hands of the ruthless as sassin. Ile had gone on for some time, when Hogan went a short way before him, and soon afterwards a man jumped out of a lane which was near, and asked him (Latchford) what hour of the day it was. Latchford at once told him, and no sooner had he done so than the villain, who asked the hour, raised with both hands a quarter-staff or spade handle, struck it violently across the back part of Latchford's neck, and instantly knocked him down. When down the atrocious mis creant hit the prostrate poor man two other dreadful blows across the left temple, which deprived him of all consciousness, and at ten o'clock the same night of life. The murderer walked off in the most deliberate manner; no clue has been discovered as to the cause of the murder. Latchford was not only in no way connected with land, but he was looked upon as one of the most obliging and quiet individuals in the entire neighbourhood, and was greatly regarded by the country people generally, as well as by the gentry. That he could have been mistaken for an obnoxious person at the time is scarcely probable—we do not deem it pos sible. It was broad noon, the sun shining strongly; the ruffian who accosted him went quite close to his person, and, if he had ever seen him before, could not be mistaken as to his identity. Hence the mystery that pervades this most frightful crime, which has created a deep sensation of disgust and horror far and wide. After the inquest upwards of two hundred of the neigh bouring people proceeded to the house where the body lay, and by their sobs and tears and loud lamentations showed how deeply they deplored the cruel fate of poor Latchford. It is sincerely to be hoped, for the sake of humanity, that no time shall be lost in looking out for and in discovering the perpetrator of this desperate deed of blood, which, we trust, shall soon meet with its merited punlshment. A verdict of Wilful murder against some person unknown' was returned by the J ury." ATTACK ON MISS GLEESON, OF NENVTON.—An armed party, consisting of seven or eight men, proceeded on Thursday night, about twelve o'clock, to the residence of Miss Gleeson, of Newton, within four miles of Nenagh, in the direction of Portroe ; after very con siderable exertions they obtained an entrance into the house, by breaking in all the windows, and then thrust ing in and exhibiting their fire-arms, which so alarmed the inmates that a male servant of the house, and the brother-in-law of Miss Gleeson, a man of the name of Mara, abandoned the position they occupied in endeavouring to keep the door closed, when the, Terry Alts immediately secured an entrance, on which they beat Mara severely—broke every article of furniture and delf in the house, and observed that, if "Miss Glee son did not deal fairly by her brother, they would kill all when next they came." They then decamped. It appear that Miss Gleeson and her brother, Mr. Michael Gleeson, have not been on good terms for some time in consequence of the latter having been ejected from a large tarm which the form at present tenants. HIGHWAY ROBBERY.--BIRR, OCT. 1. Mr. Neville, clerk of petty sessions, was met on Wednesday night, as he was driving into town accompanied- by his wife, by three men,, who demanded that he should stand and deliver what money he had in his possession. He gave them all he had about him, namely, seven shillings. They then demanded his watch, which he also handed them, when the fellows decamped. There is but one opinion entertained here, that if the Government do not hasten on the execution of public works that have been presented for at the last sessions, and employ the people, the laws will be set at open defiance, and property will lose its value. ATTACKS AT CAPPARITE.—An armed party attacked the house of a man named Dwyer, at Capparue, on Wednesday night, and after posting sentinels on the doors of two houses in the immediate vicinity, effected an entrance ; when they searched for Dwyer, who, it seems, has become obnoxious on account of land he has been warned about, but not finding him, they fired a blunder buss at two men who were in the house, one of whom they wounded in a shocking manner, the other partially escaping. After leaving a message for Dwyer, which it were difficult not to understand, they went off. IMPORTANT LETTER FROM LORD JOHN THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5, 1846. RUSSELL. The Cork Examiner of yesterday, in publishing a cor respondence in reference to the establishment of a naval station at Cove, says:— . . _ _ " A letter, a second letter, has been received by Lord Bandon from Lord John Russell, in which the most im portant announcement is made. It will be sufficient to lay before the public a sketch of its contents. " His Lordship states that although the Lords of the Admiralty have not, as yet, made an official report on the subject-matter of the memorial emanating from the late meeting of the inhabitants of the county and city of Cork, their Lordships have expressed themselves in favour of making Cove a naval establishment. " The establishing of an arsenal was a measure de pendent altogether on public policy, and the necessity of undertaking such a work. " But the Lords of the Admiralty require depots, storage for coals, and supplies for steamers ; and their object in rendering Cove a naval establishment would be for advantages of that description, and for the prepara tion and repair of machinery in connexion with the steam navy of Great Britain. " His Lordship further states, that a competent sur veyor would be dispatched instantly to ascertain if a proper site for such depot and establishment could be had in the harbour of Cork • and that if his report were favourable, immediate employment would be given in the rough labour of earthwork and excavation—so much needed at this moment ; and that such employment would be given without waiting for formal plans and estimates. " In conclusion, Lord John Russell states that he and his colleagues are actuated by the strongest feelings of sympathy for the Irish people under their present dis tress, and the sincerest desire to meet the wishes ex pressed in the memorial of the inhabitants of the county and city of Cork." PUBLIC WORKS. The following important circular has been issued : " Relief Department, Office of Public Works, September 29th, 1846. " Sir,—l am directed by the Commissioners to re• quest you will inform me whether in making your re commendation for works in the different baronies of a district, you formed any calculation of the length• of time the works proposed by you would employ the people. It is most important that information on this head should be supplied to the Commissioners, that they may know how to act. " At present it is desirable that uo more works should be undertaken than will be sufficient to employ the desti tute for three months, before which time (if necessary) the sessions may be re-assembled, but there can be no objection to recommend the commencement of a new road, the cost for completing which may amount to, say 2,0001., your 'present recommendation being confined to the ordinary drainage and fencing, leaving the metalling and bridges for a future time.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, "JOSEPH C. WALKER, Secretary. " County Surveyor." THE MAYO DEPUTATION.—The Tyrawley Herald, a Conservative paper, contains the following :—" The Has finis of Sligo, Lord Lucan, Sir Richard O'Donel, Colonel Gore, and the High Sheriff, have returned from London, where they were graciously received by Lord John Russell. His Lordship expressed much concern for the people of this country, and freely conversed with the deputation on the extent of destitution in it, and the modes best calculated to relieve the existing distress and prevent its recurrence. In Dublin, also, the deputation met with every encouragement from the Earl of Besbo rough, whose appointment to the government of Ireland has proved a great blessing. Being an Irishman— prudent, sympathising, kind, and generous—he has gained the good wishes of all, which, we trust, his future conduct will never afford occasion to alter. A LANDLORD IN CAVAN. The Weekly Register contains the following startling statement. If correct, it is a terrible exhibition at such a time:— " A magistrate and deputy-lieutenant of Cavan took his departure from his splendid mansion a few days past and scarcely had his carriage left the county when his agent sent a bailiff to the the tenants on the estate, no ticing them to pay their rent, The property in question consists in general of small farms, whose average extent is not above six acres, and it is well known through the county that, though the proprietor has an unencumbered property, and is a large fundholder, the estate is far from being in arrear. The poor tenants remonstrated ' at the harshness of this proceeding, urging that they had not threshed their corn, and the potato being now quite out, they would be obliged to hold over their little oats to find their families. The trusty minion stated he had been directed either to seize, putting on keepers at ss. a day, and a like sum per night, or else to take at a valuation a quantity of the unthreshed oats equal to the rent, and stack it at the mansion farm-yard. The latter expedient has in many cases been resorted to, and the little corn intended for the support of the unfortunate small farmer's family is stored within the princely de mesne of the landlord. Is this a Christian land, or do we only profess Christianity ?" THE RIOTS IN DIINGARVAN.—On Thursday the fol lowing persors were committed to the county gaol for being in the late riots at Dungarvan ; they are to stand their trial at the :coming quarter-sessions to be held in Dungarvan this month :—Michael Neil, Michal Brennen, M. Terry, Pat. Power, Maurice Crotty, Thomas Roache, David Roache, and William Barron. They were escorted by a strong body of police, and some of the Scotch Greys also accompanied them.— Waterford Chronicle. THE IRISH GOVERNMENT. The visit of Mr. Redington, the Irish Under-Secre tary, to London, appears to have led to much misconcep tion, and to have given rise to inferences injurious and wholly unfounded. It is stated, as if it were matter for surprise or suspicion, that on that gentleman's return to Dublin he was closeted with Lord Besborough and Mr. Labouchere, but that the result of their conference had not been suffered to transpire. From this official reserve ominous conclusions are drawn. It is not usual, in Lon don at least, with members of the Government, to trans mit a minute of their conferences to a public journal ; but it would appear that the omission of au act of deference of this sort to the Dublin newspapers is regarded as necessarily implying some strange perplexity in the councils of the Government ; hence it is freely asserted that Mr. Redington's mission to London has failed; that he found Lord John Russell inexorable in his refusal to adopt those prompt and extensive measures which the Earl of Bes borough urged upon him as essential to the salvation of the Irish people ; that, in fine, there is such a disagree ment between the Lord Lieutenant and the Home Go vernment as must lead to the most decisive consequences. In ordinary times we should not condescend to bestow on such mere twaddle any grave notice, but now the case is different ; fur, absurd as are these speculations, they may find believers among the multitudes, and so weaken that just confidence which it is so necessary they should at this crisis repose in the benevolence, unani mity, and firmness of the Government. We do, therefore, undertake to declare that there is not one particle of truth in the statements that the policy and administration of Lord Besborough does not meet with the cordial approval of the Cabinet in every par ticular, or that at this moment he does not enjoy the entire and unreserved confidence of the advisers of the Crown.— Observer. FIRE AT TIIE MASBOROUGH STATION OF THE WEST MIDLAND RAILWAY.—On Thursday night, about half-past twelve o'clock, the inmates of the Prince of Wales Hotel, who had all retired to bed, were alarmed by cries of " fire" from William Goldthorpe, one of the waiters, who slept in the upper part of the house. This magnificent hotel was erected about three years since, for the accommodation of the Midland passengers, being connected with the station and platform by a subter ranean passage. The fire originated in one of the back bed-rooms, apparently from some defect in the fire-place or the flue. The fire made its way through the roof of the house, and blazed away for some time with con siderable fury. Shortly after one o'clock two fire engines arrived from Sheffield, and were immediately followed by the Rotherham engines. A plentiful sup ply of water being at band, the engines were pro m ptl y put in play, and with the assistance of the Rother ham hand engine, which was conveyed inside the house, succeeded in extinguishing the flames by about half-past one o'clock. The injury sustained is said to amount to between two and three hundred pounds, but we are happy to find that Mr. Haynes, the landlord, is insured. At Woolwich Police-court on Thursday, Robert Carter, a decent-looking mechanic, was charged with stealing a cheque-book at the Watermen's Pier, Wool wich. Mr. Willis, collector at the Bell Water-gate Pier, was taking money for cheques at the pay-office about six o'clock the preceding evening, when the pri soner came up to the box and made a " grab" at the cheque- book, and immediately afterwards tore out some cheques and ran to the adjoining pier, where he at tempted to hide himself, but he was apprehended by the police. When in the police cell he attempted to hang himself. He had tied his braces and garters together, and fastened them to the iron grating of the cell, and would have effected his purpose had he not been pre vented. The prisoner, who shook violently, said his father had resided in the parish fifty years, that he him self had a wife and five children, and had never been in custody before in his life. The fact was, he had been drinking. Mr. Traill ordered him to find bail to keep the peace for six months. 111 r. George Wilson, late chairman of the Anti- Corn Law League, has lately been made one of the di rectors of the Manchester and Leeds Railway Company. Report states, and we have no doubt it is correct, that the post of general manager has been offered to Mr. Wilson, with a most handsome salary. This onerous post, with its salary, Mr. Wilson has, it is understood, declined.—Leeds Mercury, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. PORTSMOUTH; OCT. 3.—By the arrival olthe Maria Soames transport, Lieutenant, Boys, agent; Mr. William King, master, which anchored at Spithead yesterday afternoon, we have advices from Simon's Bay 14 days later than those last received (to the 21st of July) from that port. Her dates are, from Colombo, 10th of February; Trincomalee, 12th of March; Mauritius, 22d of June; Cape of Good Hope, August 4; St. Helena, August 20; and Ascension, August 29. She reports affairs at the Cape to be rapidly pro gressing towards the restoration of tranquillity. The arrival of the 45th Regiment, from the River Plate, in the Resistance troop-ship, Captain Patey, on the Ist of August, would reinforce Sir Peregrine Mait land most materially, and serve to relieve some of the Burgher forces, more especially as th e 73d were a l so expected at the Cape in a week in the Apollo, from Monte Video. The 45th were detained at Cape Town by the Acting-Governor until clothing could be pro cured for them, their long absence from England and rough work in the River Plate having made them pre sent a very sorry appearance. As soon as they could be equipped they were to be sent to the frontier. Sir Peregrine Maitland, the Governor, was on the frontier well supported; the Kafirs had retreated before him, but he expected to come up with them in about forty-eight hours. The inhabitants of the towns and commercial districts had recovered from their alarm, and business was pro gressing towards a healthy re - establishment. Provisions were also somewhat more reasonable than they were by the last advices. Commander Inglefield, late flag-lieutenant to his father Rear-Admiral Inglefield, Co mman d er -i n -C hief in the River Plate, and promoted for hi s ga ll antry i n the action of Oblig ado, proceeded to the Cape in the Resist ance, as did Commander Boyle, appointed to comman d the Thunderbolt steam-sloop, vice Broke, promoted. The intelligence from the Cape, by the Maria Soames, does not confirm the report of the death of Commander Sir Cornwallis Ricketts, Bart., of the Helena sloop. That officer's death was merely " reported " when the Maria Soames left. The crew and officers of the Helena had, however, been very ill, and but few able to do duty. The Conway, 26, Captain Kelly, was reported to be in a similar unfortunate state. Rear-Admiral Dacres had summoned all his squadron to join him at the Mauritius, intending to make a dis play at Madagascar. The following are the forces thus summoned;—The Conway, 26, Captain Kelly; the Cleo patra, 26, Captain Wyvil ; the Helena, 16, Commander Sir Cornwallis Ricketts, Bart.; the Snake, 16, Com mander Brown ; the Childers, 12, Commander Pitman (which sailed on the 4th of August, en route for Sydney); and the Thunderbolt steam-sloop, under the temporary command of Flag-Lieutenant Belgrave, of the President, 50, Captain Stanley. Commander Gambier, in the Sappho, 16, was left at Simon's Bay, as senior officer. The French bad assembled a force of 1,500 troops on an island about 180 miles north of Madagascar, prepara tory, it was expected, to some aggressive operations against that island. There . was no man-of-war at St. Helena at the above date. Front Ascension, however, the news is good; dysen tery, which had so long prevailed in the island, was rapidly declining ; indeed, the island might be said to be generally healthy. The squadron on the coast of Africa was thus distri buted on the 29th of August:— The Actaeon, 26, Captain Manse!, senior officer, who had arrived a few days prior from Sierra Leone and the Gallinas; the Tortoise store and guard-ship, Com mander Morrell, and the Cygnet,. 6, Commander Mon tresor (who had superseded Commander Layton), were at Ascension; the Cygnet in such an unserviceable state that it was expected a survey would send her to Eng land. The Bittern, 16, Commander Hope, had gone to the sonthern division of the station. The Larne, 18, Commander Brisbane, was off Ka benda. The Wasp, 16, Commander Ussher, was hourly ex pected at Ascensio n on h er way toEngland, to be paid off. The Kingfisher, 12, Commander Horton, was at Loango. The Espoir, 10, Commander Hand, was off Benguela, at which place she relieved the Cygnet. The Favourite, 18, Commander Murray, had gone to the River Pougas. The Ferret, 8, Commander Sprigg, was at Sea-bar. The Lily, 16, Commander Newton, was at the Pougas. The Rapid, 10, Commander Galwey, was at Benguela. The Alert, 6, Commander Ellis, was at the Gallinas. The Nimrod, 20, Commander Dacres, had just pre viously left Cape Mount on a cruise. The Star, 16, Commander Hockin, was at Sestos. The Hydra steam-sloop, Commander Young; the Flying Fish, 12, Commander Dyke; and the Ranger, 6, Commander Anderson, were cruising in the Bights of Benin. The Styx steam-sloop was healthy, and was on a cruise under her new commander, Chads. The Hecate steam-sloop, Commander West, was on a cruise. She had lost two of her officers, the master and gunner ; the former, Mr. Fox, from coup de soleil, and the latter, Mr. Davidson, from imprudently remaining in his wet clothes after being overboard. The Rolla, 10, Commander Simpson, was at the Cape de Verde Islands. The Pantaloon, 10, Commander Douglas ; the Pro metheus steam-sloop, Commander Hay ; the Sealark, 10, Commandor Gooch the Wanderer, 16, Commander Somerville ; and the Water Witch, 8, Commander Birch, are cruising about in search of slavers. The Contest, 12, Commander M`Murdo, had not ar rived on the station from England. The following officers came home in the Maria Soames : Major Wortham, Royal Engineers, and family ; Commander Inglefield, R.N. ; Commander Layton, R.N. ; Dr. Sloggett, late of the Penelope, in charge of the invalids from the coast of Africa squa dron ; Dr. and Mrs. Eagar and family ; Dr. and Mrs. Bynoe ; Mr. Kemp, second master of the Actaeon, in valided. She also brought 37 invalids of the 99th Light Infantry from Ceylon, and 23 invalids from the squadron on the coast of Africa. Four deaths occurred on the passage home from natural causes. This is the trans port which encountered a severe hurricane in her pas sage from Colombo to the Mauritius, with part of the 90th Regiment on board, when a melancholy loss of life among the troops Wilt place. She would have foundered on that occasion but for the most praiseworthy exertions of the soldiers, who completely wore out the pumps by their exertions to keep the ship afloat. Lieutenant V. 0. Inglefield, of the Vernon (acting), had been appointed Third Lieutenant of the Comus, in the Parana, vice Brickdale, killed in action. A court-martial is ordered to assemble to-morrow morning, at nine o'clock, on board the Victory, to try First Lieutenant Charles G. Crawley, of the Avenger steam-frigate, for an offence, the penalty for the convic tion upon which is, according to the 29th Article of War, nothing short of death. The Windermere, from Van Diemen's Land, arrived from the River yesterday, and to •day embarked Captain Sir William Denison, Royal Engineers, the newly-ap pointed Governor of the above settlement, family, and suite. The Comet steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Johnston, arrived at Westport, Ireland, on the 30th ult., from Galway. She landed from her boats ten boxes of specie, each containing 5001. sterling, to assist in the relief of the prevailing distress. The invalids brought by the Maria Seames were put on board the Victory to-day. The Rochester navy lighter sailed yesterday for Devon port with stores. The Lively navy lighter sailed yesterday with stores for Woolwich. The Drake navy lighter arrived to-day from Sheer ness and Chatham with stores. WOOLWICH, OcT. 4.—The Black Eagle steam-vessel, Master Commander S. B. Cook, after landing her Royal Highness the Princess William of Prussia at Rotterdam, proceeded to Ostend to convey the Princess of Saxe Weimar to E ng l an d, and her Serene Highness arrived at Woolwich Dockyard at half past one o'clock P.M. to-day. The state of the tide being favourable, the Elack Eagle steamer was enabled to come alongside the wharf wall, and her Serene Highness was received and conducted on shore by Captain Henderson, C. 8., of her Majesty's steam frigate Sidon, and Commander Smith, of the Wil liam and Mary yacht. One of the Queen Dowager's royal carriages was in waiting in the dockyard, with several members of her Majesty the Queen Dowager's suite, in other carriages, to attend her Serene Highness to Marlborough House. The Scourge bomb steam-vessel, Commander Catlin, is to be taken into the basin at Woolwich, to have some defects made good, which will occupy the workmen four or five days. She will then proceed to Chatham, and embark the depot of the 46th Regiment at that port, and convey them to Guernsey, where they are to be stationed. The Scourge will embark the depot of the 27th Regiment at Guernsey, and convey them to Ports mouth. The Acheron steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander Dunlop, will leave Woolwich to-morrow for Portsmouth, where she will be paid in advance. The Blenheim, 72 guns, fitting as a block ship, will have her machinery, constructed by Messrs. Seaward and Capel, put on board to-morrow in the East India Dock, where she is at present. She will be taken out of the dock on the following day (Tuesday), and towed to Wigram and Co's establishment, to be fitted with her screw propeller, and have the other necessary alterations completed. TiiE ConnLEß's LAST STALL.—A cobbler, with his wife and family, have lately installed themselves within the hulk of an old steamer which plied, not long since, between Liverpool and New Brighton Ferry. The hulk is situated on the sands between Tranmere and Rock Ferry. It seems this novel specimenof a cobbler's stall is a regular " stall-off," ad o pted f or the especial purpose of avoiding the payment of parish-rates and other taxes which the cobbler, as the year waxed on, had found to wax most disagreeably burdensome, and to bear him down altogether ; so at last he quitted the land, with its swamping parishes, and has resolved to see if he cannot now make a more successful attempt at keeping " afloat" on the water.—Liverpool Times. PROGRESS OF FREE TRADE IN FRANCE.—The Journal des Debuts, in alluding to the late meeting of the Association des Lib res Echanges, says—" The asso ciation, we arc assured, is making progress. Several persons of note having joined its ranks, and among the most important may be named M. Nicholas Kcechlin, one of the greatest manufacturers, who throughout his long career has been at the head of all the many im provements introduced into the manufactures of Alsace; and who, at the time of the commercial inquiry in 1834, distinguished himself by the courage with which he maintained that the industry of France could, only gain, by the gradual establishment of the freedom of trade." LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, October 3.. MOSS V. SMITH. This was a summons under the Small Debts' Act to enforce a judgment obtained in one of the superior Courts for W. 17s. 6d. and costs. The plaintiff was leader or conductor of band at the Kensington Theatre, and the defendant was the manager at the time the debt was contracted. On the case being called on the defendant did not appear, and the plaintiff, on being sworn, stated that, on serving the defendant with the summons, he said he did not owe the money, and would not attend. An order of commitment was therefore made out, but in less than an hour the defendant appeared, and said that Mr. Moss told him that any time between eleven and three o'clock would do. Mr. LEWIS, for the plaintif4 contended that the case could not be gone into as the order had been made. The Learned COMMISSIONER, however, considered it only fair if there had been any real mistake. The defendant denied owing the debt to the plaintiff; and said that he had paid almost all the parties in terested, and they were members of the band of the 2d Dragoon Guards, who had been engaged for the orchestra of the theatre in the season of 1844; there was, howl ever, something due to two or three, whom he could not find, ss. 3d. or is. 6d. each. After he was served with the writ at the Opera stage-door, he went to the plain:. tiff's attorney to explain that he did not owe the debt to plaintiff, but to the band, to whom he was liable as manager, and that he bad tried to find those of the orchestra who belonged to the regimental band, but they had goae from Kensington to Windsor; and the attorney required 21. to bepaid down for costs,'which being unable to pay at the moment he was obliged to let the case take its course. _ . The plaintiff, on being sworn, stated that he was en gaged to find the band at 5/. ss. a-week, and at the end of the week he got only one-half, and was told he should have the other on the Monday, but the house was shut up. The defendant said he promised to pay when the house opened. He did not pay the defendant for him self, but with the consent of the band, to divide between them. Defendant was to have ss. a-night, and the others engaged by him 3s. 6d. It was quite out of character that any one else should be liable to a theatrical band but the manager. Mr. LEWIS said it was through the lathes of the de fendant that the case had gone by default, and not been tried. The plaintiff said whatever had been , paid by defendant had been paid since the action, and he (plaintiff) had no thing to do with it. The Learned COMMISSIONER said he could not try the question. He was bound to make an order. The defendant said he had no means of paying at present. Mr. LEWIS said defendant was a musical teacher, and was also engaged at the Opera at 21. a-week, and his wife 11. 10s. The plaintiff would be content with a prospective order, the payment to begin when the Opera season commenced. The Learned COMMISSIONER said he had not the power to grant a prospective order. He would, however, ad journ the case till that time. It was ultimately arranged that the summons should stand open till March next. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WORSHIP-STREET. Owen Murrell, a respectable looking man, was finally examined upon a charge of embezzling 251. belonging to the Skein Silk Dyers' Society, Spitalfields, he being the secretary. Mr. Turner appeared for the society, and Mr. Heri tage for the prisoner. The facts proved were, that in June last the commit tee of trustees decided on investing 251. in the Three per Cents., and the prisoner was by vote intrusted to effect the investment, for which purpose Mr. Ansell, the trea surer, paid 251. into his hands. He afterwards intimated that he had done as required, and was to go to the bank at a future time for the Stock receipt ; but, suspicion arising, he was questioned, and, instead of attending the next meeting of the society, he sent a letter, in which he stated that he went to the bank bona fide to invest the money in June, but found the bank books closed for that particular stock until the 19th of July, and being at the time in pressing difficulties himself, he was tempted to make use of the money, in the hope of being able to replace it before the required time. Mr. Heritage attempted to set up a case of partnership on the part of the prisoner, but the magistrate overruled the objection, and committed the prisoner for trial. He, however, consented to admit him to bail. MARYLEBONE. _ _ _ A MILITARY THIEF.--Henry Riley, a drummer be longing to the Ist Regiment of Grenadier Guards, was placed at the bar, charged with having stolen a horse and light cart, value 301., the property of Samuel At kinson, 12, Manchester-street, Gray's Inn-road, and also, with stealing two military great coats. It appeared from the evidence that, about 8 o'clock on the evening of the 2nd instant, the prosecutor brought a set of skittles and bowls for the detachment of Grenadier Guards at present occupying the above named barracks, when the sergeant-major and Mr. Atkinson went to the canteen, the sergeant-major to get change, and Mr. Atkinson to receive the money. The prisoner taking advantage of Mr. Atkinson's ab sence, jumped into the cart, put on Mr. Atkinson's great coat, which was in the cart, and drove out of the barracks at a great rate, without being noticed. At a little after ten o'clock he was taken into custody by police -sergeant 17, H. division, in Rosemary-lane, while offering to sell a regimental great-coat, when, on the sergeant searching him, he found he had three military great coats, which he bad stolen before he left the barracks. The sergeant seat for an escort from the Mint guard, where the prisoner was confined, and the sergeant of police afterwards found he had been offer ing the horse and cart for sale. He was immediately taken from the Mint-guard, and conveyed to the Den mark-street station-house, and a report was sent on the following morning (Saturday) to his commanding officer, Sir John Burgoyne, who ordered the whole case to be brought before the civil authorities. The de fendant is a most notorious character, In the absence of some important evidence, the pri soner was remanded until Thursday. SOUTHWARK. BRUTAL ASSAULT.--On Saturday the Rev. William Langley, and Mr. John Lockhart, of Walham-green, were charged before Mr. Seeker with committing violent as saults on David Davis, a porter in the employ of Messrs. Betts, distillers, of Smithfield-bars, in one of th e third class carriages of the Greenwich Railway.e The complainant, who exhibited marks of severe punishment about the head and face, stated that he got into a third-class carriage at Greenwich, to come to London, on the preceding night. The defendants were in the same carriage, and perceiving one of them (Lock hart) smoking, he said that probably he was not aware of the rules against smoking cigars. The defendant called him an impudent scoundrel, and he in return said that if there was any impudence attached to it, he was as impudent as a Frenchman. The moment he said the words, Mr. Lockhart rushed at him, seized his collar, and struck him in the face, and he fell down. On rising to defend himself from further violence, he was attacked by Mr. Langley, who struck him over the head with a stick, and cut him severely. He added that he called out "Police," and the train just got to the Deptford station when the assaults were committed on him. Thomas Rockliffe, a witness, living at Whitechapel, corroborated the complainant's evidence, and said he did not hear him use th e l anguage attributed to him by Mr. Lockhart. Inspector Maddock, of the railway police, stated he heard the cries of the complainant for assistance on the arrival of the train at Deptford, and saw the complainant lying on the floor of the carriage, with the blood flowing from his head. He complained that he had been as saulted by both the defendants, who were taken into cus tody on the arrival of the train at the terminus. Baker, a policeman, stated that on taking the de fendants to the station. house, one of them (Langley) expressed a desire to arrange the affair with the com plainant, saying he would not mind 'giving a sovereign for that purpose. The MAGISTRATE said the parties had better consult together for a short time. The parties then retired, but the offer made by the defendant being unsatisfactory, the magistrate ordered the case to proceed, when a Mrs. Arkwright, a lady who was with them, denied that either of the defendants committed the assaults in the first instance. Her evi dence, however, was considered immaterial, as it appeared she was frightened, and in a swoon the greater portion of the time. Mr. SEC HER said he should feel it his duty to send the ease before a jury. The defendants were accordingly committed, and sure ties were entered into for their appearance at the next sessions. THAMES. ALLEGED MORTALITY AND CRUELTY ON BOARD A MERCHANT SHlP.—George Harris Quinton, master of the ship Regina, from Hong-Kong, now lying in the West India Docks, was summoned before Mr. Ballan tine by five of his crew, on three separate and distinct charges, which will be better understood from the fol lowing particulars : The first charge was for neglecting to furnish his crew with lime juice and sugar, which is strictly provided should be done by Act of Parliament. Mr. Pelham, who appeared for the several complain ants, said the humane provisions of the Legislature had been entirely disregarded by Captain Quinton, and, in consequence, sickness and death had occurred to an extent which was truly frightful to think of. On sailing from Hong-Kong the crew consisted of twenty-seven Manilla men, subjects of Spain, and thirteen Europeans. Through the neglect of tht captain three men died on the passage, and eighteen others were now in the Dread nought in a dreadful state of disease and suffering. When the vessel arrived in the Downs, another crew was employed to work the ship up the river in conse quence of the sickness on board. Mr. Cullen, the ship's surgeon, confirmed this state ment, and said that limes abounded in China, so that the captain might have provided for the necessities of his seamen. In extenuation it was urged that no lime juice had been placed on board the vessel, so that the master could not serve out that which he had not on board. It was also urged that neither lime nor lemon juice could be procured in China. The magistrate regretted there was an obscurity i n the Act, which made it impossible for him to convict. The owner was liable to a penalty of 201. for neglecting to provide lime juice, &c., and the master would be sub ject to a penalty of 5/. per day if he neglected to serve it out. In this case no lime juice was put on board, so that he was compelled, although reluctantly, to dismiss the summons. At the same time, he felt bound to say that the m ond char en had been greatly neglect e d b y their captain. The secge against the master was for admi nistering one-third less provisions than agreed upon in the articles between the owner and crew, which was ac counted for by a statement that sent on board off the island of Ascension ; gistrate said the captain was bound to provide exti.. food for the extra passengers, so that the captain agreed to, pay all hands fourpence each per day, for every day they had been so kept upon short provisions. The.third and•last charge was for having flogged the cook of the vessel with a cat-o'-nine-tails, on the ground of his having spoilt some coup, and also that he was filthy and insolent, contrary, as was alleged, to the present custom Of the merchant service, which service never adopted that mode of punishment. The MAGISTRATE thought that n• man ought to be flogged on board a merchant ship except in cases of very great necessity, such as mutiny ; and that no punish ment should take place till all the officers were con sulted, and the offender called upon for his defence. If the man was a bad cook, and incompetent to do his duty, it would be a reason to reduce his wages ; but to flog a man because he spoiled a dinner was, in his opinion, an abuse of authority not to be tolerated. He should send this case before a jury, and he called upon the de fendant to find bail himself in 301., and two sureties of 101. each, to answer the charge at the sessions. -nveral persons were t- , t the ma- LAMBETH. William Rateliff, au auctioneer, carrying on business in the New Cut, Lambeth, and Richard Miller, a youth of 19, who has been in his emplcyment, were brought up for final examination, on a charge of stealing two decanters, of the value of six shillings, the property of Mr. Wolf, a glass and chinaman in the London-road. The brief facts of the case are these :—Ratcliff had been engaged by Mr. Wolf to sell off by auction the whole of the stock in his shop, and on the 23d of last month he and his man called at the prosecutor's shop to make preparations for the sale. They were left alone in the shop for a few minutes, and during this time Rat cliff told the other prisoner to take the pair of decanters off the shelf and carry them to his house. He did so, and almost immediately after Mr. Wolf missed the pro perty. Having some suspicions, from seeing the de- , canters with one other, which was left on the shelf a few moments before, Mr. Wolf proceeded to the shop of Rat cliff, and there found the missing decanters. Ratcliff admitted they belonged to Mr. Wolf, but said they had been taken away merely to show Mr. Wolf how easily he could be robbed, and added that, before the arrival of Mr. Wolf, at his house, he Lila told the other prisoner to take the property back to Mi. Wolf, and tell, him how easily he could be robbed. The prisoner Miller denied this i on the contrary, he declared he was ordered by his master, in the first instance,,tOtake the decanters, and it was not until after the property had been found that he heard Mr. Ratcliff say anything about returning. An attorney's clerk said he should not disguise the fact that the defence which was intended to be set up was that the taking away of the decanters from the shop of the. prosecutor was the sole act of Miller ; and that when Ratcliff found them at his house he directed Miller at once to take them back. Mr. NORTON observed that this was the very worst part of the case, as there could not be a shadow of doubt upon the mind of any person who heard the evidence, and the statement of the youth Miller, that he had been made the instrument of his master in the commission of the felony ; and the attempt, therefore, to shift the guilt from the shoulders of him who was the most guilty, to another who was the mere instrument, and actually coerced into the offence, was, to say the least of it, not manly or creditable. His (Mr. Norton's) opinion was that the youth Miller had been actually forced into the commission of the offence by his master, Ratcliff ; and he should therefore direct his statement to be taken down, and should forward it with the depositions to the Central Criminal Court. The statement of Miller was then taken down in writing, and it is very probable, as the magistrate ob served, that he will be admitted as a witness against Rat cliff at the sessions. The attorney's clerk applied that Ratcliff might be ad mitted to bail, saying that sureties to any amount would be put in. Mr. NORTON refused to accept bail, observing, that it was his opinion that his doing so would impede the ends of justice. He, however, accepted bail for the youth Miller RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

THE HISTORY OF MARY ANNE WELLINGTON, THE SOLDIER'S DAUGHTER, WIFE, AND WIDOW, by the Rev. R. Cobbold, author of The History of Margaret Catchpole," is just published, and at a time when so much attention has been directed to the soldier's con dition, nothing can be more seasonable than the ap pearance of such a work, which affords, from the best authority, the fullest information respecting his career, from his enlistment to his discharge. Besides posses sing the advantage of being a faithful narrative of events taken from the lips of the individual whose stirring adventures it records, and who still survives, the story of Mary Anne Wellington will be found to be one of such sterling interest as must make her claims as a heroine far superior to those of any imaginary one. We may, therefore, confidently predict for the book a popularity as extensive as that of " Margaret Catch pole." The work is dedicated, by express permission, to her Majesty the Queen Dowager,; - who (as well as the Duke of Wellington), has been, -we understand, a most generous benefactor to the heroine. WENT OFF HALF -SHAVED.--AD amusing incident occurred in one of the barber's saloons yesterday. A foreigner had been in the occasional habit of calling to get shaved, though at distant intervals of time, but often enough to make himself known and appreciated. It seems that he always made as an excuse for not paying, that his money was at the railroad, whe n h e would step out with the pretence of going after it, but did not make his appeara nce until six week s or two months after, when he came back an entire stranger, with a heavy black beard, in order to be shaved. Yesterday, being duly enconsed in the high-back chair and well lathered, the barber-wag proceeded to the operation, and having shaved just one-half his face, chin, &c. , thus addressed him :—" Stranger, have you this mornin g ?" money to spare Some got any what surprised, th e s tranger re plied, " I have three cents., but I am going up to the railroad, and I will hand you the balance directly." The barber coolly wiped off the soap, and replied, " Please to go now, and I will shave the other three cents. worth when you return." With a shower of oaths, breathing vengeance and the law, the stranger "sloped," present ing a grotesque appearance, one side of his face kettle black and th e other white. He has not made his appear ance since. — Springfield Gazette. The merchants and manufacturers of Blackburn engaged in the India trade met together last week to consider the effect of the East India Company's salt mo nopoly on British interests. Mr. D. G. Aylwin, of the house of Aylwin and Co., of Calcutta (author of a pamphlet on the Indian salt monopoly), and Mr. Stoc queler, honorary secretary of the salt trade in this country, attended, and made some instructive state ments on the subject in hand. Resolutions were passed, condemning the monopoly, and pledging the meeting to efforts for its removal.—Leeds Mercury. Mr. Wilson, late chairman of the National Anti- Corn-law League, arrived at Brussels a few days ago, and almost immediately received a visit from M. Arriva bane, one of the vice-presidents of the Belgian Free- Trade Association (l'Association Beige pour la Liberia Commerciale). Mr. Wilson also had interviews with several members of the committee, and communicated some valuable suggestions relative to the conduct of the association. WORKS by ROBERT J.

Th e p ar i s hi one rs, v/P, were present at 11 o'clock, c ommenc e d b us i nes o by 0 1 ' 1 ' ing Mr. Field to the chair. A t wo p enn y ra t e w as P ill' posed, passed, and ent e r e d, j us t as th e a b sen t e es P" , ,' sented themselves, who were much annoyed by the lobe ness of the rate, it being much less than usual. next proposition was, that the beadles be dismissed, s owing to the decreased congregation, they are no long s,. in requisition. This also passed ; it being a gree d rbt, their salaries should be paid to the sexton, w h ose s ale/ is his whole dependance, his fees being almost g oo , * , through the incumbent's proceedi ngs , an d as h e i s go ting old in the service of the church, the parishione r :' have thus testified their appr o b at i on o f hi s conduct. I will also be recollected, th a t t h e i ncum b ent thought: proper to displace the clerk from his usual position 0 the church, some few months since, in direct opposiSi °° to the feelings of the parishioners. A resolution therefore proposed, that the clerk should look to the ii " cumbent for his salary, being his servant, and not th e ' servant of the p ar i s h ; although the vestry cons id e r ed that they wero fully justified in following this cours e ' yet, as th e c l er k was an old and faithful servant of the parish, they agreed, dissenters as well as churchmen, continue his s4lary.
