- .-T-H2G-ELECTIONS. E AND M& PUSEY. Mr. Philip Pu s ey again offers his services as one of jhe Members,: for B:rkshire, and though he is a Tended proprietor of old family, and one o f th e fi rs t, if vot the very first, of our agriculturists, the Tory squ ires arts opposing his re-election. Several years ago Mr. Pusey introduced a Bill t o g i ve t o tenant far mers ample tenant rights ; and when that was rejected by the landtoici interest of the House of Commons, he brought in various modified Bills intended to effect as much of the same , desirable .oisjects as landlord prejudices would ad mit. -, He was also the means of procuring the Select Committee of inquiry into the agricultural customs of England", and Wales, by which a mass of evidence has. been collected which will hereafter be used on behalf of the farmers whenever they shall have any real representatives in Parliament. Mr, Piney has also introduced and promoted various measures for enabling the owners of settled estates to expend money in improvement and charge it on their p-operty. Thit he has not accomplished more decisive good in this direction, is accounted for by the fact, that he stood almost alone in the House of Commons as the advocate of the farmer,' interests. The votes, if not the goodwill of the tamers, have hitherto been given to the glib professors of "Protection," while Mr. Pusey last year of fended some of his constituents by declining to join them in an agitation for the revival of protection to agriculture, which he told them was hopeless, and could only end, as it has ended, in disappointment. And now the politicians who ex cited opposition to Mr. Pusey because he would not join in a wild goose chase which they as well as he knew to be hopeless, have abandoned Protection with the greatest facility. It was because Mr. Pusey would. not march through Coventry with the loud longed Protectionist crew, that Mr. Vansittart was set up against him ; but if there be any power amongst the Berkshire farmers of distinguishing real friends from talse--*--a practical improver in politics and in agriculture trona a shallow , pretender to the performance of an i m possibiliry, there cannot be a doubt that Mr. Pusey will ne re-elected by a decisive m jority. The following c ircular, which has been issued by Mr. Vinsirtart's c ommittee, is a piece of the gro'se.t im ert npnce w hich has come under our notice : p Berkshire Etection.—Nlaidenhead, 19. h June. 1852. The ,00mmittee for cenductieg the electiun or S r, George Henry Vansittart, Esq., will feel particularly ° pi bL ge d by ) oa r si g ni ng ere of the aw•l rcai,Ti s on t h e o ther side, a an_ returning the same as addressed at your carat s convenience, to enable the committee to claiplete their returns.—l am, sir, your very obedient servsnt, FRED T. WARD. Appended to this is a fly-leaf, with Mr. Ward's a ddress printed at the back, which is in these terms : B-rkenire Election, 1852.—T0 the Committee for con ducting the election of G. H. VANSITTART, I intend to vote for Mr. VANSITTART. Signed I do not intend to vote at all. Signed A more impudent electioneering trick was never perpetrated. Surely the people of Berkshire will not allow themselves to be used in this way without re senting the insult, Going infinitely in advance of Mr. Pusey in general politics, the sympathy of the Daily News must yet be strongly in favour of his re-election—since he is a❑ agricultural reformer; whilA his opponents are obstructives of the most in tolerant class. No man deserves the support of the farmers es much as Mr. ruiey, for the deciive blow he has dealt at the system of game preserving in tha evi dence he gave before the &1«-ct Committee on the Game- laws. Mr. Pusey toll the Committee he once preserved gatir., but that observation had satisfied him that his tenants had suffered so much loss from his game, that he gave up preserving, and discharged his gamekeepers. 'The following passage from his evidence on that occas i on ought to secure him the vote of every Berkshire farmer who dares to call his vote his WV). jylr. Poey said —m One of the points which made tne'come to the determination of giving up preserving w a9 , fi n di ng t h at m y o wn gamekeeper, who had go: three or fuur acres of land near his house in the covers, after euttivatin4 it for eight or ten years, said at last he must give it up because it did not pay him ; it would ruin him ; and then it occurred to me to consider what was the case with my keepers' neighbours round the covers." That was a lesson to landlords, and the man who read it deserves the grateful support of all the tenant farmers. Then who stands higher amongst the practical im provers of English husbandry than Mr. Pusoy ? Who has done so much by his sound and rational treatment of agricultural literature, to disseminate, compare, and elucidate the best practices of the various rural -divriets ? Who has done more to vindicate the: tenant farmers from imputations of want of enterprise or intelligence ? Look at his report to the Royal Commission on the agricultural implements of the Great Exhibition, which is at once an exponent of the triumphal pri•gress cf agricul:ural mechanics and a most juriicious lecture on improvements in husbandry. H o has marked hu..v goad implements enable the Perinn-r to perform his work more cheaply and snore effectively ; n hoar rapidly the cost of these implements has decreased, whale they have be- COMO more and mon) perfoct every year; the; the rural implements in the Exhibition " afforded not the l as. ecospicuana testimony to the advance of Eog.7;ish skid in d-ri-iag mechanical means for the abralgm-nt of la')our;' and, though last not lelst, that modern machinery has givi, , n to farming what it most certainty. Truly may it be said that :l r. Posey is the most apt repre senratire of the progressive agriculture of the day ; and though doubd-ss B-rkshire will, as she othlbct claim e her own his serviaes in the next Parliament, yet, if there be any man who can be said to be the appropriate represontativa of the collective tenantry of England, it is Mr. P,asoy ; and for such men there will be work to do in the next P ar li ament , Tne law of landlordand tenant—the Imilord power of distraint—the Want of security for the tenant farmers' capital—the game- laws—nd. a variety of similar topics, in which the farmers are deeply in terested, will all require the aid of such calm and r4lactive minds as Mr. Puscy's to accomplish the amendments so urgently neede.i. Surely, then, Mr. Piney T11!/it. he re•elected,—.A PV.ACTICAL REFORMB a. —Daily urs. R BILLS. On the leo,. day of the late sessiou the (louse of Lords passed a resolution altering the Standing Order No. 185, known as " Lord Wherocliffe's," which re quired that incorporeted companies promoting Bills in Parliament should at a certain stage prove before the Standing . Order Committee of the Lords that such Bills bad tPea approved by four•fiftha of the proprietors, presert at a general reaming riecielly eeremeee for that purpreve ,The alter - a:ions in the standing or'ders referred , to ere :to the-effect that on giving th e utue l ten days' notice by circular to the prepriteors of such mewing blank proxies aro to he inc!osed for the use of such preprieetra, and that on holcht:p.; the meeting proof be gtv , -.4. that such Bill tray submitted and approved of by prorrietore peeserit in person, rr by proxy, holding at Last three-leurtlis of the paid up capital of the cum peny reerwented at such meeting by qualified pro prireers.

This will prob a bly r a i se the whole ques• Lion ( on with regard to the conduct of railway meetings and the objectionable use of proxies belonging to parties who are net only necessarily ignorant of the arguments used at the meetings against the measures which the proxies are sent to support, but they are fre quently ignorant of the nature of the measures they thus vote fir, and to this source may be traced the sanctiun by the shareholders of improvident leases, guarantees, and worthless branch lines, by which in many cases the original capital has been rendered wholly unproductive. It is believed that thero is a large section of proprietors in railway companies who never vote on any question, either in person or by proxy, and it is calculated that they amount to one - t hird of the whole. These per sons it appears trust e ntirel y to the directors, the Lords, and the Commons, and many of them have suffered wofully for thei r c o nfidence. I f proxies are to be used in accordance with the standing order as altered, the publication of the list of shareholders repre sented at each meeting, with the am oun t o f stoc k, and its circulation among the shar e h o ld ers , may p r event misrepresentation and enable the Committee to secertain the correctness of the return. Thcn, again in se eding proxies to proprietors, officials will naturally take care that those shareholders who invariably vote in favour of the directors shall have proxies sent them, but some of the other shareholders may not be fortunate enough to receive either a n o ti ce or a p ro xy ; they may complain, bat can have no redress unless they attend the meeting, should they happen to knew of it. The chairmen of the Great Western, the Great Northern, and the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway Compa nies, have represented to Lord Derby the propriety of restoring the majority to three-fifths of the proprietors present, and of rendering an investigation imperative in stead of permis s ive, a s to the bond fides of the parties voting, whenever complaints be made by petition from either party to the Rouse of Lords. ATTEMPT TO MURDER A POLICE CONSTABLE. Shortly before twelve u'clt.ck on Saturday night great excitement was caused amongst the inhabitants of Lam• b.-Ala-walk, in consequence of the following desperate attempt b.,ing made by a party of Irishmen to murder a police offia:r of the Lor Lambeth division. It will be remembered that several months back a policeman unmet' Chaplin was murdered by a number of men in the same spot as the present unfortunate occurrence took place, and ever since, owing to the bitter feeling evincA by some of the parties towards the police, the constables have invariably gone on duty in couples, so as to protect each other when patrolling drat particular die . rict. On Saturdly night, at the above-named hour, a female was violently assaulted by one of the men, and having given an alarm, police constable 81 L ran to the ,pot, wrien he was in the act of v.lttrig Into custody the Woman's assailant, but betore he could do so a cry of " Down with the police" was relied, and some eight or ten fdlows immediately made a terrible onslaught upon the officer. Nut content with brutally betting and kicking him, they actually threw him down on the ground, and whilst some held him on the earth, the others jumped upon him, causing three of his ribs to snap asunder and otherwise seriously injuring him in ternally. Police-constable 178, of the same division, on hearing the noise, went to the assistance of his comrade, when the mob attempted to serve him in a similar manner. The t ffi!er, however, had the preoence of mind to draw his truncheon, which he tray forced to strike indiscrimi nately over thd heads of the crowd ; but in spite of which they continued to strugL , gle with the police, and eventually the two truncheons % ere broken over the heads of the mob. When the pieces were fouud they were covered with blood, and hair was adhering tothewu.t Two of th e f e l lows were fortunately appre the others effected their escape. Tnere . i ho b however, no doubt but th ey all be taken into cms s w t , o o d u y nded ,as they escapedbeing seriously could hardly have dot ing the conflict which happened. EXTRAORDINARY CAPTURE OF TWO THIEVES. James Lennox, alias L'ercival, and George Mills, two notorious sieves, belougiag to the London swell muh, and formerly connected with Hackett, the expert thief, who is now undergoing a long term of imprisonment in the United States, were brought before James Deane, E q, at the Town Hall, Tunbridge Wells, , on Saturday, for final examination, charged with stealing a gold wareh and appendages, worth 501., the property of Mrs. Maria liolliegsworth. It appeared from the evidence which was taken at some length, that the prosecutrix lodged at Mount Ephraim Cottage, Tunbridge Wells, and un the morning of the 23] ult., she quitted the house for the purpose of taking a walk, leaving her watch on the table in the trout eitting-room. Sne returned home a little after one o'clock, and mused it immediately. She then went and informed the superintendent of her loss. Mr. Mor ton, the head of the po►ice, returned to the house with her, and feeling satisfi , ei that the robbery was committed by L .radon thieves, ho procured the assistance of ono of his ofilepre, and proceeded in a vehicle down the London road. When he arrived at Crowhurst, 23 miles from Tunbridge Wells, he perceived Lennox stanoing in front of a public-house, and, knowing him to be a Lon don thief, he followed him into the house, and ascer tained that both prisoners had just arrived from Tun briclp Wells, with an extraordinary swift horse and chits•'. He took the prisoner Lennox into cultody, and Mills was apprehended in the stable by the consta bl.4 who accompanied him. lie (Mr. Merton) seerched the prisonere end their coaise, after which he went into the stahl.‘ where the horse was standing, and in a few mine' CS the watch and appendages were discovered.

A letter from the baths of Homburg of the 28 h , ult. says—" Our summer seasons has nevrr been more animated or brilliant than it is at present. Balls and concerts succeed each oth-r every day, and the aristocracy of every nation fl , ck hither to partake in the pleasures and amusements of the baths. The opening of the new salons of the Casino took place recently ; these two magnificent rooms, the work of the celebrated Belgian arcbitrct, Cluys:mear, are much admired for their rare elegance, for their spa cious extent, and for the luxury and suniptuousuess of their decorations. The Casino of Homburg has nothing to envy at any bathing establishment in Eu rope. It now appears to be the finest and the most comfortable resort of fashion. Tce official list of foreigners contains the names of more than 1,500 fa milies who have come to Homburg since the opening of the season.

A decree in the Moniteur announces several judi ciary appointments in the departments. The Moniteur announces in a communicated note that the President, having been informed of the in• tention to give banquets in his honour during his ap proaching tour in tne departments, has resolved not to accept any, however touched he is by these kind attentions. The Presge bas commenced publishing a series of letters on the state of England. Three have already been given ; and the following extracts are not a bad specimen of the sort of information communicated, and of the writer's knowledge of the country, whose habits and manners, as well as institutions, he assumes to describe : " In England," he begins, " every one knows that the whole of the land belongs to the nobility, and that it is inalienable. Thus, in the immense augmen tation each day of the city of London, you must not believe that the builders of houses purchase the soil as complete property—they pay a rent to the lord pro prietor, and the concession of the ground is only for 99 yeam Thus the nation is the guest of the nobility —it lodges with ir. " These ' guests of the nobility ' are, it seems, divided into three clasaesthe agricultural popu lation, who are farmers of lords; th e m iddle class, which devotes itself to trade, and forms what is called the gentry; and, lastly, at th e lowest step of the ladder, the salaried and poor work men—the mobility. Of these three classes of gues ts the dearest to the nobility is the agricultural popula tion. This is easily understood; if the farmers do good business more money must enter into the cash box of the lords. If commerce is restrained by the laws, if, for instance, the importation of corn i s bur dened with a high duty, th e E nglish farmer s sell their produce with more advantge, and all goe s on for the best in the e y es o f t h e aristocracy. that the gentry will s ee it s commerce d est royed — it is 1 5 true that the mobility may di e of hunger, "*" • " The intention of th e nobility is obvious, vl?” to , annihilate this lab or i ous gentry, that is, the luae . fatigable people of L ou d on, Manchester Birmingham,finod Liverpool—to kill t h e real EnOish nation , the . ay, .It is true (still meaning th e gentry) which mounts each d invading Gr ea t Britain, and carrying the yes"io f the Stare!' • Ater so accurately defining the different cl asses into which th e E ngl i sh people are divi d e d, a n d ex citing our compassion on b ehalf o f those oppressedesays tr- d-smen and manu f acturers, the gentr y, 13 that— " There are im mense quarters in London that count to Eir -30,000 inhabit an t s , b ut do not send a deputy classes !lament.

The only conclusion which a contemporary think. it necessary t o d raw from this atroc ious outrage is, that the Iri s h are very bad mob fi g hters, and that they had better k eep quiet, because they a re sure to b.

B u t i n an em pire like that of Great Brit a i n, w b ere th e popu l at i on i s c omposed of different races and religious communities, and where parties are more equally matched, it is by no mean, certain that the game will Ise altogether one-sided. The English Protestants may have it all their own way ie Lancashire, but if Roman' Catholics are to be chal lenged to a war,_ literally pro aris et fo c i s , w hat is to become of th e Protestants in Tipperary ? Are the in signia of an " alien" Church less obnoxious to the Irish Roman Catholic than doves and crosses to the S. ockport Protestants? Our contemporary may think i cowardly, but we are stongly of opinion that it won!• be most un wise for a statesman to act upon the as sumption that Irish " Papists" are always easilj to b-' thrashed. Surely Lord Derby might have pick- d some little sect or two out of the " Protes. tent Association," on which he might have exer cist d his taste for persecu , ion with far less danger to life, property, and the public peace. It has been ingeniously suggested that the riot a' Stockport was a drama enacted entirely by Irish men for their own amusement—that, for some un explained reason, they sacked their own houses, and burnt their own chapels. But the evidence given at the coroner's inquest seems hardly to bee, out this extraordinary hypothesis. The chief wit ness found the deceased lying half dead upon th. ground, and went out to fetch a doctor. ~ Wh en ," be adds, "we got outside, an o th er man came up with a piece of wood, and, saying 'Come, l e t u . look at his head, to see it he is an Irishman,' lit struck him with his weapon on the left side of th. head, on which the deceased cr i e d out 4 Oh dear, I'm done,' and never spoke a ga i n ." W e P rotestan Englishmen have certainly good ri ght to congratu late ourselves that we are " not as other men are"— not even as this poar Roman Catholic Irishman. Chronicle. BEABOLINE MAILS. (N C .

MARLBOROUGH STREET. John &ernln. a private in the CAdsiresin Guards, and Mary Ann Bacon, were brought before Mr. Bing the Grapes h 'l o ni a s fa r o n r e x iin containing a t examination, n gold, from t he house of Robert T ownsen d, l an dl or d o f n a thouse,ious have No. 14, 0 e c P u o r r r t e e d r : s tr n u: t . Several expatimbliincaduring which much evidence has been brought forward, of which th e following is a summary: — Bacon was servant at the G ra p es . O n th e 7 t h of June, about ten in the morning, Mr. Townsend had his breakfast in a room where there was a cup b oar d , i n w hich he had placed his cashbox. B acon c l ea r e d away the breakfast thi , ;.s, and had o ccas i on to go to the cup board where the box was placed. Th e prisoner as k ed to be allowed to leave for an hour, in order to g e t some c lothes washed. She then folded up a gown , an d it was no ticed, though without any suspicion at the time, that bhe folded something in the gown. Bacon then we nt out, and in about ten min u t es a f terwar d s t h e cash box was missed. Mr. Town sen d immediately commu nicated with the police and went in search of tier. On his return, about two o'clock, he found the prisoner had made her appearance and had been given jute cus ttee bog. box, tody. Police-inspector Monckto n an d P t: l ice - constable King, C 39, were employed t o trace the movem-nts of ;a s cot] daring her absence, as t h e prisoner denied all knowledge of the robbery. Th e police succeeded in t racing her to a coffee-sh o p w i th a soldier (the male prisoner), and afterwards go t i n f ormation which led them to believe that the girl h a d gone to the barrueks, sent for the soldier, given hi m t h e box—that the box had been opened, the banknotes destroy e d, an d t h e gold divided among the p r i soner and several of his comrades. The only evidence, h owever, which could be placed on the depositions was that of M r . T ownsend, who proved the loss of the cash-box; and o f M rs. Townsend, who proved that she visited Bac on i n the House of Deten tion, and that Bacon told her s h e was a good mistress, and it she was sure not to be p un i s h ed she would tell all. Mrs. Townsend said it would no d ou b t b e better for her it she told the truth; upon whi c h B acon asked to have her master sent to her the n ext d ay. In the meantime a relative of the prisoner called to see her, and had some conversation with her, it w as p resumed, on the medi tated discloaure. When Mr. T ownsend called the pri soner made no communicati on to h im. A woman, pained AI argaret Donova n , proved she was ,in the same lockup cell as Ba con. She heard Bacon call out to a companion that it w as c l everly done. William D)hby, coffee-shop k eeper i n Tuthill -street, saw the two prisoners t oge th er on the morning of the robbery. There was a p arce l lik e a box lying between them. Thomas Stokes, priv a t e i n the Coldstream Guards, !Mid he visited Reema n i n gaol. The prisoner asked him to go to 8, Forster- street, Whitechapel, and see a person there end tell hi m to h ide the cashbox which was in the water-closet. Th e p r i soner asked him if he could trust him. Witness repli e d " Yes," T he prisoner said they must have made some m i stake about the money chat was in the c ,shb , x; th e sum was not 1201; it was a veryAs the good i ttnheisnsg was though, about p dwoawsn fromeOl i were ere fully Beeman, who is a tall pow e rf u l man, suddenly rushed to the front of the bar and a i me d a furious blow at hi m. The blow, however, did no t take eftet, ()wing hh to 0 the activity of W e l s h, th e gao l er , an d other constables. committed. The prisoners, who denied the charge, WESTMINSTER. Henry Mortimer, a rough lookin4 fellow, was charged with assaulting and wounding Margaret Stanton, th e wife of an eating-house keeper, at 69, Orchard-street, Westminster. The aecused entered the shop on Sunday afternoon, and, after taking some refreshment pr•pargd himself for a nap at full length. Prosecutrix tad him be could not be permitted to sleep there, upon which he abused her in the vilest terms, and, having rushed round the counter se z d a carving knife, and advancing towards her swore he would cut her throat, and finding him about to carry his threat into execution, she put her fiends up to protect her throat, when he cut her hand so wverely that one of her fingers was nearly amputated. A servant came to the prosecutrix's assistance, and grouched the knife from Mortimer's hand. The ac cused then left the shop, but was captured in the course tt the evening. Prisoner said he had no recollect 7 on of what had oc curred. but he had no doubt all he did was in his own protection. Mr. BRODERIP said, it was a very aggravated assault, and committed the accused for trial. William Eastern, a carman, was charged with having caused the death of Henry Hobbs, a child 18 months Ad, by running over it, This case was one of a most painful description, but it was perfectly clear, from the evidence of the witnesses examined, that no blame attached to the defendant. Che child had crossed York-street, Westminster, on Saturday afternoon, to a sweetmeat shop, and on re rurning suddenly stepped from the kerb -stone into the road at the moment defendant's cart, laden with hay, was passing. The result was most lamentable. The /ghee! suddenly knocked the child down, and the poor little creature's head was literally crushed under it. Cho appalling spectacle created a thrill of horror among he bystanders who witnessed, and, from the suddenness of the occurrence, had been unable to prevent it. Dd.. lendant's horse was walking slowly at the time. Mr. BRODERIP said it was quite clear, by the account 4iven, that the unfortunate occurrence was purely acci lental, and discharged the defendant upon his entering uto his own recogrezances to appear again ou Wed •tesday to abide the decision of the c , roner's jury. SOUTHWARK. Timothy Connor was charged with a violent assault on Charles McGowan. Mr. Binns said that ho attended for the complainant, who was formerly a Roman Catholic, but had since be eume a convert 10 Protestantism, and W 43 now, and had eneaeed as a scripture reader of :Inch Mr. Amstron„e was 3' h ; e eBrit p .fo r P e ra s s e uo n i'm t s:B i t n ei c rw u me m oP' ie ds n ste t i . y, The complainant lived in lastle-court, Bermondsey; and, it seems, had excited .he displeasure of the defendant, who had himself at one s g .lane been a Protestant, but had s i nce c h anged his reli eion. and become a convert to th e C athol i c faith. On ile s d ane perfectsd last the Idein fendant,strength n w th ho, it and would b stature e whenseen, Nos eompa red with the compl a i nant, went to the house of the :attar, and without assignin g any reason, commenced an ittac k upon him, in which h e was assisted by a man name d Tim Hearn. who wa s h eard to exclaim, " Connor, am has had enough; come away." Th is expression was ised after the complainant was s t ruc k about the head e v fi t .rid face by Connor, who beat him in such a Weimer as r, O cause the blo d to flow from his nose and Mouth. Mr. tiinns then called Charles i 1 Gowan, a diminutive man, who, on being 4 WOW, deposed that ho wa s a scr i pture reader under the Mr. Armstrong, of St. Paul's, Bermondsey, and iced at 5, Castle court, in that parish. Same years ago acing a Catholic, and having witnessed the hypocrisy of the priests and the gross errors of Popery, he became a .onvert to the Protestant Church, mnd had been'once ~,gaged as already described. On W e d nes d ay afternoon last be was at hone; the house ho liv.d in, as well as the wo adjoining, were, , nbabited by persons who had, like teneunc-d Popery, and become members of the Church o f England. he was standing at the tart et door of his house when he saw the defendant, whom he had known before, approach. He therefore went in, and was ibuut to close the door, when the defendant rushed into he passage, collared and p us h e d him up against the veil, and began to strike hi m w i th his clenched fiats ieeu. the head and face, while a man named Tim Hearn neid him in such a position that he could not defend him elf After beating him in th e way d escribed, Hearn xteainaLel " Connor, you hav e g i ven him enough." The defendant and the other men then ran out of the house ,rid escaped. The complainant added, that he gave the defendant no provocation, and that he was convinced that ne had attacked him on account of his differing with him o n points of religion. Mr. Binns (to complainant) —Do you apprehend danger from defendant? Complainant —I certainly do. Mr. Salomon, on behalf of the defendant, said that the facts had been very much exaggerated, and he would ,how that instead of the circumstance arising out of a religious feud, it was simply a case of assault, in which the complainant himself waa the chief aggressor, for he struck the first blow. He then proceeded to cross examine the c omplainant, who said that the defendant did but inquire for one Tracy, who lived in the house, at the time of the assault. He (complainant) certainly objected to permit Connor to enter the house, and that the latter then struck him. lie did not strike in return. Mr. Salomon said that the defendant wanted to see Tracy; and it was for that purpose he went to the aonse ' when the alleged assault took pl ace. John .contnep, a near-si g h te d man, stated that he izel s i in d a the rushedpassage of the complainant's house when th e in and assaulted him. Witness, al though he could not distinctly see the blows given, yet beard them, and knew Connor's voice, and heardiTim [learn say that the complainant had got enough. After wards saw the complainant bleeding from the nose and mouth. Tnis witness, in his cross - examination, said that he heard the defendant say that the house belonged to Tracy and not to complainant. This was before the assault. Witness was a convert to Protestantism —had formerly been a rigid Catholic, but had left it off.—(Laughter.) In reply to Mr. C O MBE this witness said that he could not explain what Counorcalled at the h ouse tor, except it was to giv e th e complainant a " bating;" and he (wit ness) did not know what for._ ..... . Tim Hearn was next called, and stated that he ac eompanied defendant on the afternoon in question, and that th e i r on l y ob j ect i n go i ng t h ere was to iLquire f or rracy. Th at th ey did nut go there to b e revenged on • tha complain an t f or t u rnieg from Ca'holio to P rotestant, Out to see T rE . cy; that the wmiplaivatit, ho wever , i n stesil of g i v i eg them a c ivil answer, struck th e defend ant a bl.w ou the breast, and tried to shut them o us; that a scull s did t h en take place between the pirties, ;Ay; witness interfered to put a stop to it, and that it was untrue th;it he attempted to hold the complainant while the defendant was beating him. Mr. 1`.,, 0 m8 E sa id t h, ‘ u fer all it was not satisfactorily explaite , d fur what purpose the defendant called at the house, and as the evidt-nc'J was so coal wing, instead of deciding the case himself, he would leave it open for the wmplaining parties to go bc'ore the grand jury, who were then sating, acct prefer a bill of ieuictment against the defendant. Mr. Bums intimated that he should proceed at once to the Sessions-house for that purpose.

The annual general meeting of this institution was held on Liriturday, at the society's rooms, 12, Cha tham-place, Blackfriars. Cnarles JelHew, E 1 .., took tine chair. Mr. Samuel Brown, the hon. secretary, read the notice convening the meeting, and afterwards the re port of the council on the general progress of the society during the past year, which, among other matters stated : " During the session 48 new members have been Pleated, whilst the vacancies occasioned by retirements end death amounted to 13 only. The total number on the b .oks of the institute is now 244. In addition to these, four honorary members have been elected by the institute, whilst the council have been enabled to told to the list of correspoi,d ng mem b ers no l ess t h an 42 of the most distinguished actuaries or managers of foreign countries; by tneans of whom the i ns irate has been put i n communication with 27 of the leading Mies in Bel ginm, Canada, France, Germany, Holland, Russia., Swe den, Switz-itland, and the United States of America. "The library, which is now becoming itnpor , ant, has been increased during the session by presentations of no less than 614 volumes and patephietic. Amongst the d on ors of these, the council are gratiii,al at being able to enutuerata the Board of Trade, the Commissioners in Lunacy, the Commissioners of Railways, the Committee of Council on Education, the Ecclesiastical tiomtnis sioners, the General Board of Health, the Home Otlice, the Inspectors of Factories, the Prior Law Board, the Registrar General, the Surveyor General of Prisons, the Royal Astronomical Society, the Royal Scottish Society of Arts, the Statistical Society, the Royal In stitution, the Elul Society of Edinburgh, the Geolo gical, Pathological, and Pharmaceutical Societies. The council having long had under their considera tion the great inconvenien ce ari s i ng from the prevailing uncertaiaty as to the proper rates to be charged for re sidence in foreign climates, and for other extra risks, and believing that data existed ainont,:st the records of the life assurance societies of this country calculated to afford the means, when collected, of driving at the value of such risks, took measures at the early part of the session to obtain the data in question. They are happy to Sty that fifty-two companies, at much cost of time and labour. readily supplied their experience, compris ing in all 6,151 cases; and the council are now engaged in the laborious task of classifying and arranging the, data thus obtained, with a view CO deduce from thew the required information. " The members will, no doubt, have noticed that a Committee of the House of Commons has been engaged during the session in the consideration of the subject of the property and inc ime-tax with a view to determine the true principl. aof direct. taxation. It is gratifying to the council to observe, from the remarks of the Chao cellnr of the Exchequer, that the evidence given before the committee by members of the institute has tended to throw much light on that intricate question. The council are glad to perceive one of the most important functions or the institute so soon called into exercise. " Some months back a petition to the Elou , e of Com mons was prepared in reference to the privileges claimed by a few companies enrolltd under toe Friendly Societies Act. The council, on consideration of the subject, b..i ng of opinion that the prayer of the petition was nor. quit e in accordance with the liberal views which the institute has ever sought to uphold, framed one themselves, and caused it to be presented. Both were referred to a Se lect Committee of the House, and members of the insti tute have been examined at great length upon them. " The inquiries of the select committee have not been confined to the question above alluded to solely, but have extended to a lmost all the points which bear upon the condition and prospects of friendly societies. " The counc il, f or some time past, have had under their consideration the means of publishing iu a more stltiatac,ory manner than has hitherto been done, the Pipers read before the institute. " Lastly, the council have to announce that they have completed a nega c iation with the Statistical Society, in accordance with which the institute will, after :Michael mas next, be admitted on moderate terms to the use of the rooms in Sr. J ames ' s -;quire. Mr. Cheshire, they aro most happy to sk , y - , has been appointed assistant secre- tary to the Statistical Society, and will act in that capa city for butte parties, very much, it is believed, to the advantage of each " The amount of read, Whi c h receipts and disbursements was gave the following results := Total amount of r'ceipts, including subscriptions in 1850- 51, and for 1851.52, Stc., 683/. 3i. 7d.; expenditure, rent, and general charges, 369/. 14s. 4d.; extraordi nary expenditurel2s 6 ; leaving a balance i n favour of th e society of 225/. 16s. 21.

All who desire the improvement of Ireland, all who have affection for its people, hopes in their oii-progress, aid faith in their future, must therefore rejoice at any event which may bring the Irish and the English more often to. ! get her—when the demon of oolitics is kept afar off; and we verily believe that the exhibition we are noticing is full of good promise that will be son succeeded by fulfilment.
