This Branch has been established for the purpose of affording to Parents, Guardians, and Friends the means of providing, in an easy and inexpensive manner, a fund for the maintenance and education of their children, so as to guard against the difficulties and destitu tion in which infants are frequently left by the premature deaths of those on whom they are dependent. For this purpose an extensive set of Tables has been prepared, showing the Quarterly Rates of Premium required, at at all ages, for Annuities 'o commence at the death of a Parent or Friend, and to be continued until a child shall have completed (if a bey) his twenty first, or (if a girl) her twenty-fifth year of age.

This Company having purchased the fee-simple of eight sections, containing 653 acres of mineral ground and freehold land, at Strath albyn, about 30 miles from Adelaide, in South Australia, and within 3i miles of the Murray River, is formed for the working of the valu able copper mines which have been opened out and partially worked there, but to render which extensively productive, more efficient ma chinery is required. Ten lodes have been proved, varying from 4,6, to 10 feet thick, at depths from 14 to 28 fathoms, and there is no reason to doubt the Strathaibyn district is a continuation of the same favourable ground in which are the celebrated Burrs Burra and Kapunda Mines. The mineral riches of the South Australian district have never been surpassed in the history of mining enterprise, the Burrs Burra Mine alone having produced in five years 738,1081. worth of copper ore. The following Is a copy of the report of Messrs. Johnson and Mat they : "The sample of copper ore from the Strathalbyn Mines, assayed fJr Messrs.

NEW DISCOVERY IN. TEETH.- Mr. HO WARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-street, has la trod uced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so per fectly resemble the natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer ; they will never ekange colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, arid is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges at the lowest scale possible.

The public will learn with satisfaction that the danger to be apprehended from the use of tarred coal-sacks ota board steam-ships and ra il wa ys, from their liability of spontaneous combustion or accidental ignition, can be entirely removed by the applica tion of an invention of a Mr. D. L ee, of Leadenhall-street, by which coal- sac ks are rendered completely incombustibl e , nor is it possibl e to ign it e them by fire from any source. The Roy-al lgail Steam-packet,Com pany, alive to the neceusityof . guarding against the possibility of another serious accident occurring s i m ilar to the one by which the Amazon was lost to their fleet, have, after a strict examination of the merits of the invention, given an extensive, -order for its adoption in their ships.

The festoons round the upper skirt is flowered over in small designs to the waist, as is also the body and sleeves.

This toiletteaud rosebuds over the should be accom panied with a Coiffure, composed of a wreath of white roses, fixed behind by a bow a n d long floating ends of satin ribbon, forming an ele gant evening toilette for a bride. The lampis and the moire antique brooches in silk, mixed with light gold thread, are' among the most elegant novelti es of the season. The robes Albanaises with vel vet stripes stamped on a flat ground, and the robes with priilted or brochees flounces, finial shades s - - • • 1 . Puke charting din -ner or- evening oresses. ~ ?: Velvet brocades the moire ,antiques, with their ex quisitely painted bunches of flowe rs , are all employed for dinner dresses. Ball dresses are composed of e . • m eus material ; among the most elegant may be see, those of gold or silver llama, tulle, or silk gauze, t embroidered with latter silk. We have seen one of the made with three skirts, embroidered with rosebuds in their na tural colours: the two upper skirts raised at the side by bouquets of roses, with graceful h anging foliage of leaves and rosebuds. A bouquet to match on the body, and light hanging wreath falling across the head over the shoulders. This toilette 1 8 suited for a young lady. A most elegant toilette, destined soon to be dis played by a young married lady, is c omposed ofwhite crape, with five flounces embroidered with white silk in deep festoons ; between every third festoon are five rows of narrow satin ribbon, laci ng there them, terminated by toques, and fastened by an agr . flounce is ornamented in the same style. 4h e A ; each body is low, and has a volant round the top t o - match the flounces. The abort sleeves are trimmed in the same manner. The coiffure is comp o sed WO bandeaux bouffants, upon which is place d-sad of two roses without leaves. The roses are small i h of on the summit of the head, and separated at distances by small bows of ribbon to match those of the robe. A profusion of cu r led ribbons escape from the roses on the bandeaux, and fall on the shoulders. Another dress in the same style, but much more effective, is of taffetas d'ltalie, in lieu of ribbons ofi ns tead of cra pe, the gold gauze, satin, and the fes toons pinked. Among the many splendid dresses worn at the ball given at the Palace of the Tuileries we remarked the following :—A robe of sky , blue brocade, the body or namented with two torsades of pearls , of different sizes, fixed on th e c h es t w ith a brooch of diamonds in the form of bunch of gr a pes ; the sleeves were trimmed to match, with smaller tors a d e s and brooches. The skirt was longer behind than in front, raised on each side in larg e plaits, fixed with f diamonds. The ' agrees o coiffure, composed of a l arge p l a it of hair, with pearls placed over the band eaux ; ra ther pointed in front, in the Ceres form • an a • graie of diamonds between the bandeaux. ' The manteaux with hoods continue in fashion ; they are generally made of cloth. We have noticed some in very good taste ; the hood was lined with moire, and a broad moire ribbon was !Allot(' round - the man teaux; others had the hood lined with velvet ; the revers and trimming round the cloak were also of velvet. A lady of great distinction has been seen in a very long Talma of black velvet, trimmed with a broad embroidery of jet, which formed a pelerine, pointed on the shoulders and back, each poiht termi nated by an immense tassel of silk and jet. The mantelet-echarpe has already been cited for its elegance and taste. It is more dressy than the - manteaux, marking the waste, and descending in front in square ends. It is trimmed round with a double row of black lace, the top one being half the width of the under. Above the lace the mantelets has an embroidery of jet and silk, representing Greek designs, or several rows of small stars. The hood, which forms a large collar, when falling on the shoulders is trimmed to match, the broad lace forming a fall when raised over the head. We have seen one at the Opera of pink terry velvet, trimmed with point d'Alen9on, and embroidered with white beads and silk. The sorties de bal are very, fanciful. Some of white cachomire, trimmed with beads, silk, and jet, with magnificent lace or deep fringe. Others of white or pink satin edged with ruches of guipure lace or rouleaux of marabouts. They have hoods and large Venetian sleeves; and shaped as to leave the sleeve of the robe undisturbed. The Cogaque is making its appearance: made hi white velvet, and lined with white quilted satin, it forms an elegant costume for a young lady ; it de scends a little below the hips, and has large pagode sleeves. There is but little alteration in the style of bon nets this month : capotes with velvet fronts and satin crowns, t la vieille, with two rows of black lace covering the crown, and forming a point on the cur tain, seem much approved of. The pouf is the most graceful and piquante style of coiffure invented since the time of Marie Antoi- nette. To give an idea of this pouf, we must picture some bouillons of tulle, forming a headpiece, allow ing the plaits and back ribbon to escape behind, fall ing very low on the neck. Across the bouillonnes is twisted a very small wreath of roses, widening as it reaches the bandeaux, and falling in light branches over the ears. The blonde pouf is most elegant with pink satin curled ribbon, banging amongst the curls of the hair. Two light feathers are laid across the head, and fall just below the ear. A still more ele gant one may be composed of gold blonde, with gauze ribbon, embroidered with gold, forming toques, with long floating ends reaching the waist. A robe of pink satin. One deep flounce of black ace, with or namen t s o f jet worked over it; at th e head of th e fl ounce was a wre ath of ro s es w i t h rose buds, and a t equa l di stances a large rose encircled by rosebuds ; strings of jet beads were thrown carelessly over the wreath. The low body had a bertha to match the flounce, with a small wreath of rosebuds round the top, fastened in front, and falling in grace ful branches down the front of the corsage. The coiffure was composed of roses and jet beads, smaller than those on the dress. A rather broad plait of hair, encircled with leaves and roses, also jet beads, rested upon the summit of the head, descending on each side over the flat bandeaux to the middle of the cheek ; the plait is much broader in the middle than at the sides, and nearly forms a point; it terminates behind with two thick twists of hair, from which escape two long curls on each 'side. This coiffure is quite new, and is styled a la Di ane d e Poitiers. A new and grac e f u l to il et was worn b y a yO ung lady of distinction ; it was composed of white taffetas d'ltalie, under a tarlatine, with narrow gold stripes; the sipper skirt b e i ng rather more than a quarter o f a yard shorter th an th e under one, showe d plait of gold whi c h was placed on the top of the hem ; the upper skirt had a h em and plait of the same w i dt h . The low full body was drawn into a narrow band of gold at the top, an d the sleeves were trimmed to match. A boquet o f P arma violets at the waist. Th e coiffure was comp ose d of three tresses, one of gold lace, one of hair, an d the other of violets. The narrow h en. ban deaux were flat ; the plait of gold was placed on the top of the forehead, then the plait of hair which was much wider, and the Ceres wreath of violets which fastened under two large coques of hair placed very low behind, almost on the neck. A young married lady, who wa s much admired, wore a robe of white moire antique, with wreaths of flowers so beautifully painted that it might be ima gined possible to gather them. The corsage was low, and square in front ; the same wreath, in much smaller flowers, was painted on the bands round the body and sleeves. But the most striking novelty was the beautiful bouquet of roses, buds, and other flowers, embroidered a t the point of the body, pro ducing the effect of a b unch of natural flowers. The hair was dressed with two large bouffants, traversed with small detached flow ers, composed o f prec i ous stones, harmonising with the colours of the embroi dery on the robe. A robe of light blue taffetas d'ltalie; the bottom of the skirt was trimmed with a bouillonne of tulle ma line, of the same shade, placed at i rregu lar distances out leaves,halfw up the skirt, at interval,. vrith bouquets of roses, with trimmed to match the skirt. The b o dy wa s very low, The bouillonnes formed a point in front, reaching th e composed of very puffed bande waist. The coiffure aux, over which was placed a double string of small roses, without leaves, the first on the forehead, the other round the thick plait, which was placed very high on the head. A young lady wore a robe of pink tarlatane, with three skirts, with five rows of narrow pink and silver ribbon - the first skirt o n l y raised on the left side by a tuft of roses, with long s il ver leaves. The under body was of silk, and low, the upper one of tarlatane, high, with five rows of ribbon round the throat, to match the skirt. The short sleeves trimmed to match. The coiffure was a broad plait over the bandeaux, and a coronet of roses, with long silver leaves, round the knot behind. A young married lady was much admired for the simplicity and good taste of he r toilette. It was a robe of white crape, with three flounces scolloped with gold thread. The low bod e flo unces I _ a Grecque, scol loped at the top to match the flounces A light open P of gold was placed on the top ef each flounce.

In our yesterday's publication we gave the parti , culars of a sanguinary collision that had taken place on Saturday, on board the Queen of the West, Ame rican packet-ship, lying in the river Mersey, as they had then transpired; and that the case had been transferred from Liverpool to Birkenhead, as the ship was lying within the jurisdiction of the Cheshire ma gistrates. - On Monday (yesterday) accordingly, the magis trates: assembled within the justices' room, Birken head, to hear the charge of mutiny preferred by Captain Mors against his sailors. The occurrence has created a great deal of painful interest, and the justice-room was densely crowded with persons anxious to hear the true state of the transaction, reports of various colours on the subject prevailing on both sides of the Mersey since the period of the affray. The magistrates present were—Sir Edward Cust, John Dean Case, Esq., and John Jackson, Esq. Ten of the sailors were placed in the dock, upon which, Mr. Aspinall, barrister, stated that; he appeared for the crew; that he had a cross•charge against the captain on the part of the men ; and that he intended to move for a warrant against the captain. Mr. Snowball solicitor, appeared for Captain Mors, and gave an outline of the transactions, concluding with stating that the captain would be satisfied with a summary conviction. Mr. Aspinall objected to so serious a case being disposed of summarily, but of course he had not the power of deciding. Without determining the point, the Bench agreed to proceed with the evidence, when Mr. Snowball called on Captain Mors, who said—l am master of the Queen of the West, an American vessel, lying in the river Mersey. On Saturday last had part of crew on board, when I went ashore to get the Government agent to clear the passengers. When I came book, which was between twelve and one o'clock, the mate was mustering the crew. I told the mate to go below and look after the passengers, and I would muster the men. Twenty men answered to their. names. I told the shipping master to go on shore and get si x more handp,w - hi - cb, including the carpenter's - mate and an ordinary seaman, would make 28 of a. crew. George Freeman, one of the crew, then stepped forward and asked me what I meant by only having 26 men, when the complement was 30, and swore - he would not go in the ship. I turned coolly to the man and told him I had gone to sea with less men, and asked him if he could do more than one man's duty; to which he replied " Yes," and that he would have to do it in this case. I told him to go forward. He did so. On Freeman joining Alexander Jack and Henry Downes, they all began muttering. I followed the men to the forerigging to see whether they would go to work. When I got forward, Freeman said it was time to get breakfast. I asked him what be wanted that he did not go to work, and he told me in answer to go to bell. Thereupon I took hold of him by the collar, but before I could say a word, all the prisoners, particularly Freeman, Jack, Downes, and Fowler, knocked me down with handspikes, belaying-pins, &c., and when I was down they knocked me on the head. I managed to get up, and having all the officers except the mate below, I ran aft to the wheel house and got a revolving pistol. I went forward again, took hold of Freeman, told him he was my prisoner, and ordered the others to stand back, or I would shoot them. Upon this, two of them closed in upon me, and I fired at Jack. The pistol missed and the men closed upon me again, armed with hand spikes, belaying pins, &c., &c., knocking me down and cutting me severely all over the body. With that the mate came along with a cutlass, and com menced to strike away at the crew. The second and third mates also came forward and struck at the men, to enable me to get up. As soon as I got up I told the mate to give me his cutlass, and to get another, which he did, and we then cleared the decks in a very short time. The Government sur veyor, Lieutenant Fryer, was on board at the time, and went on shore in a steam-tug for the police. Eight of the crew went on shore in the s team-boat, whom he gave into custody on landing. I then or dered the ringleaders to be secured. Downes was so violent on being brought aft, that the three mates could not manage him. I was at the time in the wheel-house getting my bead dressed, and I jumped out and lent them a hand. Downes was so violent that I tied him up to the rigging and flogged him. Soon after Superintendent Ride came on board, and took the portion of the crew on board into custody. I cm a German. Cress-examined by Mr. Aspinall—l have never been before the magistrates in this country for ill treating my crew, but twi ce at New York f or ill treating paisengers. Did not strike Freeman. B. fore I went for the pistol the men had struck me. The principal part of the men were on deck during p the occurrence. No m an struck me a seco nd time before I drew the trigg er of the pistol. eTotieca pistol was loaded at New York, but there was 1 thought at the time there might be one c ap en, and I fired with the intention of shooting the m an if he resisted. Only the ma te had a cutlass_the s econ d mate bad a belaying-pie. I sung out to stingers to assist me, but they did not. Snowball —The pistol the p as _ By Mr. w as a revolver. There were three caps on, and three 01 the nipples s about cap s. I do not recollect the particulars of t h e affair for which I was tried atNew York. I was fined one or two pounds. James P. Risk, the mate, w as next examined, an d gave a similar statement to the captain's as to the con flict. He detailed in dcl."' a 'Lion some attacks upon him self, the securing of the men, and the flogging of Downes, which, he stated, the captain did himself. with velvet or ribbon bands, which cross the chest and fasten with buttons ; the chemisette being com posed of frills of English point, or Valenciennes, se parated by embroidered insertion. This style is spited for plain taffetas, black, chestnut, blue, or green. The velvet used is sometimes black, but appears in better taste when of the,tsame colour as the dress ; the skirts are trimmed with from three to seven flounces, edged with a broad velvet, or three or four narrow velvets placed at equal distances, which are repeated upon the skirt between each flounce. Plain taffetas are used for simple toilette, particu larly walking dresses. A simple cloth or cacheadre dress, with bosquines trimmed with b ra id ; an em broidered collar, with double jabot escaping d own t h e front, between the buttons of the high body ; a small cravate, tied with art and taste ; and white em broidered sleeves, form am elegant and unpretending toilette. 4 - 8 4 S r " 8 EXTRACTS FROM TABLES.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine : " 157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. " About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief, and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know some thing of this disease. " It was during one of thew paroxysms, between twelve and thir teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I oat no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain had eatirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect health. " From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to aie is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf fered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS is towards its improvement. I have recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result has always bees of the most gratifying character. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, "GARRET FOSTER GILL. " To Mr. Pront, 229, Strand."

In cross-examination the mate admitted running after the men with a cutlass and striking at them after the conflict was over, but he could not say he stru c k any one. H e al so s t a ted that he assisted to hold up Downes's shirt while the captain flogged . him. The second and third mate, and a little boy from Manchester wh o was on b oa rd at the time, gave evi deuce to much the same purpose, identifying different portions of the crew as bei n g engaged iu the conflict, and detailing the manner in which they were wounded, and the parties who committed the acts. The boy stated that Downes received two dozen and two lashes ; and, on cross-examination; stated that he had asked the captain on Saturday morning to take him to sea with him, but he refused then on the ground that he t oo k no b oys. H owever, on again asking him, while proeeeding to the court in the morning, he agreed to take him with him to America. Mr. Bradley, surgeon, stated that he had dressed the head of Capt a i n M ors, and found that he had re ceived three contused wounds on the head, which would be inflicted by a blunt instrument. John Murphy, a passenger, deposed to the general features of the captain's evidence, and stated in addi tion—l heard the pistol click twice, and then saw it flying into the water. The captain came out of the scuffle, and got a man down and kicked him, while the man's hands were tied. Thi s man t r i e d to get on board the steamer, but was driven back. Saw him taken into the wheel-house, where he was put into irons. Saw Downes seize the ladder leading from the main to the quarter-deck,-and call for help from the passengers. He was seited by the hair of the head, :and pulled up by the first and third mates. Then saw the captain flog him up to eighteen lashes, when the mates wished him to stop, but he refused, and gave the man two or three more. \Veen the officers were securing th e m en , saw on e man with his arm nearly cut off at the elbow. A Liverpool police officer deposed to taking the men into custody. A number of the men were very severely cut, some of them wounded all over the body. Two of them, Peter Ry an an d Th omas Morton, were at present in the hospital ; and he had a certificate which stated that they were unable to be removed. Ryan has his arm nearly cut ofF,"and complains sadly of his wound. Morton is also wounded in the arm, but not so severely, and be has also a scalp wound. Another passenger, named Thomas Moray, deposed to the captain striking Freeman first, and to seeing him afterwards run after the men with a cutlass. Sir Edward Cost here stated that there was evi dence against only Fowler, Jack, Trainer, Downes, and Freeman, when Mr. Aspinall requested the others might be discharged for the sake of the other prisoners. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS: TIAIgS,--The historian who a century hence shall dive into the controversies of this age will hardly fail to notice - withristerprise how large a part of them is given up to the subject of political conversions. As the age is an age of transition, and as transitions in the mind of an age involve transitions in the minds of many men, he will be prepared to meet with many cases of repentance and conversion, and also many varieties of that process. He will expect to find some predisposed by the circum stances of their education or employment to embrace new ideas, and pass into the van of social progress • others he will expect to find habituated, i n t ereste d , or pledged toold systems, so as not to be changed without the most pain ful laceration of feelings. He will know that they who are inveterate in one system can never be entirely assi milated to another. He will recognize as a matter of Course the working of the inner man in the outward change—frank admission, struggling conviction, vacil lation of opinion or conscience, the bigotries of party or of pride, ineradicable prejudice, the wiles of in sincerity, the mazes of folly, the various habits of those who think for themselves and those who think in crowds, the Slow processes of research, and the rapid glance of intuition. The world will see many a change of opinion, but it will never see one sudden, simulta neous, and uniform. Such a change, indeed, cannot be imagined in the world t h at we live in, whatever may be the case in some other sphere not so tied to the tedious laws of mental development. All this our future his torical student will be prrpared for; but one thing will certainly strike him as remarkable, and not entirely cre ditable to an age the peculiar boast of which was its progress. Ile will be amazed at the number of those who, like the respectable elder brother of the " Pro digal Son," meet repentance with jealousy, suspicion, and disgust; and who, like the labourers that bore " the burden and heat of the day," will grudge those of the eleventh hour anything more than a propor tionate share in the reward. He will admit, of course, that a repentance which waits upon interest is not very meritorious, and that a man who steps in at the last hour does not deserve more than an hour's pay; but he will certainly suspect a want of heroism, a want of generosity, a want of true greatness, in a form of political virtue and truth, whose chief employment it is to shut the door against converts. For our own part, throughout the whole of the free-trade controversy . w e have felt it our duty to hail convert:, on whatever plea, and without stickling for humiliating confessions. So long as a man was willing to act as a Free-trader we have ever been ready to leave opinions and sentiments to die a natural death. There are countless analogies to justify a man in saying that he thinks one system abstractedly the best, but another the only one practicable; for, in fact, there is no one that does not step out of the present actual state of things and seek liberty of feeling and thought in the past or the future;—in some romantic history or Utopian dream. Were it not for this rale of political tole ration we certainly should be disposed to protest against that venerable relic of bygone times, the Right Honourable President of the Board of Control, now once more Member for Stamford. Mr. Herries is alto gether the creature of necessity. He is a necessity of the Cabinet; a necessity, as it appears, of the electors of Stamford; and, in his turn, he will bow to the necessity of free trade. In fact, he has already performed— ungraciously, indeed—the first steps of his tardy capitu lation. Sooner or later this stiff-necked old gentleman will submit to the yoke of necessity, but, meanwhile, his speeches at Stamford last Friday and Saturday exhibit a rather awkward reluctance,—just saved, but only just, by a few syllables,—intimatin g that he will not allow his prejudices to prevent him from serving his country as well as he can. As it is really not worth while to har monize Mr. Harries into perfect congruity, it will be sufficient in this case to quote some of his vary words, containing, as we read them, the bane and the antidote. The hitter we shall give in italics. On Friday he said:— "He believed that by our recent policy much mischief had been done to the greatest interests in the country, and he did not see how those interests could be injured without injury to the country ,at large. He was de termined to oppose that policy by every means in his power; and, wbenever there was a chance or a hope of sum , sa he was resolved on using his utmost endeavours to mitigate at all events, if he could not alter and reverse, that unfortunate policy. * 4 * a a .„. The self-styled free-trade party had urged their policy so far that their opponents bad no choice but to endea vour to change that policy, or in some other way to in sist on justice to the landed interest. For his part, he had always claimed for that interest, not protection, but justice. If by protection was meant favour, he disclai me d it. lie wanted no favour, but he wanted justice for the landed interest, If that interest were subject to special burdens," &a. * * • • * * "In the meantime, he should beg of them to consider —and to consider with a favourable disposition—the great dif ficulties under which the present Government labou re d, without any fault upon their part." On a review of such passages it is evident enough that Mr. Herries, as h e that he e but depergiuvealityhe evident country 0f a ssures the electors of Stamford, " has not ab ate d one jot of his conviction of the truth o f the doctrines m h h e e w h a i i s l hithertolet those ain c t o a n i his services.

Mr. Aspinall then proceeded to address the Bench against a summary conviction. He stated that he had abundant evidence to go before a jury to give a very different colouring to the case made on behalf of the captain.

An inquest was held yesterday morning at the Bell Tavern, Kilburn, on the bodies of George Chapmtill, aged 25, Richard Piintoek, 27. and William Rowley, 35. labourers, who were knocked down and killed by at,: engine of a mail-train on Friday last, near Kilburn.. station. A large number of witnesses were exsti3ieed. from whose evidence it appeared that about 60 men were at work a quarter of a mile distant from the " opening gang" of five to which the deceased belonged; and the safety of this body of workmen .was insured by the at tendance of a policeman, in addition to an overlooker, so that they might be duly warned when an engine appeared in view. It did not seem, however, to be usual to use the same precaution in the case of the small " opening gangs;" but it was proved that in this instance the whistle of the engine had been sounded in ample time to allow of the escape of the deceased, bad the sound not been deadened by the noise of another passing train. The coroner (Mr. Wakley, M.P.), in the course of his observations to the jury, said he feared that the regulations with respect to workmen employed on the line were not sufficiently strict to insure their safety. The most despotic act under such circumstances became the most humane. He suggested that some mechanical contrivance should be made to give warning to the men on the approach of a train, such as a bell attached to a long rope that might be struck by a train in passing. In such a way an alarm might be given before the train came within 300 or 400 yards of the labourers. As far as the evidence went, no blame appeared to rest upon any one in this case, and it was on that account only the more necessary that some method should be adopted to apprise the me n of the approximation of danger. The jury, after a short consultation,* returned a verdict of " Accidental death." accompanied with the following recommenda tion:—,, That, in order to prevent the recureroenmcpreaaoniifyr oyr catastrophe of the kind, the directors of the the contractors of any works upon this li ne of should station a person or superintende n t over every gang of men to give them sufficient intimation of th e approach of the trains." ~A l I mock funeral, they dug him up at night and eat dim: , There have been instances where a part of a person brit cut off, h" t ies !'imp 1F obliged to eatj . ll.t \cliS-\" - it, Tat late King of Fn-jet ow. off the arm of one his female servants, .and mad=: her.ent part of it.
