ALARMING STATE OF THE NORTH . .. DunLIN, WEDNESDAr._a nother meeting of r gistrates has been held in the province of Ulster-- now rendered t.s notorious for its agrarian crimes as )uthern counties, which have Tipperary for their centre, were a few years ba c k. Almost every pot it brings some account of human blood being shed-- houses maliciously burned—or other atr oc iti es peculiar to the system of Ribhon:sm which has so long plagued this land. This last meeting was held at Gosford Castle, Rithin five miles of Armagh. It was called by the Earl of Gosford, lieutenant of the county, to consider the best means of checking the crimes which have become so general in that dis trict. Amongst those present were—Lords Gosford and Caledon ; Colonel Caulfeild, M.P., lieutenant of the county ; Sir James Stronge, Colonel Close, Scc. The meeting was private; but it is stated that they adopted an address to the Lord-Lieutenant, sugges ting farther police arrangements, the levy of the tax for extra police as a distinct one, to be collected monthly, and certain modifications in the jury system, together with more stringent legislation for the sup pression of crime. On Thursday night last a respectable farmer, resi dent in the neighbourhood of Armagh, was grievously assaulted by a gang of seven ruffians, who beat him, as they, supposed, t o death. Three of the po o r fel low s ribs bad b een separated from the back bone, and he lies in a very precarious state. Now what was his offence ? It appears that a meeting was called upon the estate on whi c h t hi s man is a tenant to me morialise the landlord for a further reduction in the rents. It was attended by a Roman Catholic clergy man, who proposed a set o f resolutions which this tenant considered unreasonable, and refused to abide by them. Of course the p ropos i tions of his Reverence were liberal in the extreme, as he was not dealing with his own property. What f o ll owed ? The atrocious outrage described. I s not this prieil a party to the crime which he excited--if he did no t actually plan and order it to be perpetrated by his followers ? On the property alluded to a reduction of t wenty per cent. was mad e on th e last Michaelmas gale of rent. The agent to it has tried within the past f ew days to effect a n i nsurance upon h is life, at Belfast, bat the companies to which he applied refused his application. He is a healthy man, but he is not bullet proof, therefore he is deemed as more than doubly hazardous. In short they will not insure him at any premium. The neighbourhood of Dundalk will suffer by the recent infamous deeds of the Ribbon conspirators. Mr. Fortescue, of Ravensdale, is about to discharge a large number of the workpeople in his employment, and quit the district in which a conspiracy was en tered into to assassinate him. Mr. Fortescue is the brother-in-law of the Marquis of , Ormond. The accounts of the state of Mr. Eastwood are f a r from satisfactory; he has rallied slightly. The fol lowing are the late s t r e p or t s we h ave o f t h e condition of the unfortu na t e su ff erer .

The cause of the accident has this morning been in quired into, but, so far as we have been able to learn, it has not been satisfactorily explained. The boilers, of which there were three, were about five tons in weight. They were firing boilers. The plates were said to be half-inch plates, and to bear 401 b. pressure to the square inch. They were high-pressure boilers. It is not e little singular that five years ago a similar accident took place at the same works, and that the boiler which ex ploded this morning is the one which was manufactured specially to supply the place of the boiler which exploded on that occasion. Special pains were taken in its manu facture. It was constructed on the works, of first-class charcoal iron. i ming, and gave very similar testimony to that of and used to Browne. The cats lived much better than the Cummingser ithwatshevery stin g y, v drive ants . hardpersons of whom she made purchases. Had often seen her intoxicated. Had beard her say that one of her daughters had married a bandsman, named Hooper, and that Mrs. Ince had encouraged the • match. Had never heard Mrs. bargains w that Hooper was one of the band at Astley's. Harriet Browne had lived in the service of Captain Cumming. during the months of July and August, 1845. The conduct of Mrs. Cumming to her hus band was very unkind. She used to absent herself from him when he was ill for days together. He often complained of it. He was nevn better pleased than when she would come to see him and dine with him. He had not always proper food. Her conduct was often outrageous—generally about the cats. The house was rendered very offensive by the way in which she kept them ; and when the door of the room in which they were confined was left open, they would naturally go out. She used then to rave and storm at me, swear, and use bad l anguage . H ave heard her say that Mrs. Ince bad stolen a silver basket of her. The Captain used to have a glass of brandy and water by the order of the medical man at about seven o'clock in the evening. Mrs. Cumming de prived him of that, and then Mr. Ince used to send it in bottles for him, labelled " the ' mixture as before." —(Loud laughter.) Witness had left because of Mrs. Cumming's conduct. Would have starved rather than have stayed. When one of Mr. Inee's children died she said it looked so beautiful in its coffin that Mr. Ince must have it glazed all over like a wax doll. She seemed to think that Mr. Ince had really done something to it, and appeared to be dis pleased. FAT AL AFFAIR WITH THE NEGROES AT LAGS. At the moment that the Sc O rew Company's Cape Mail packet Harbinger was leaving Sierra Leone for England, on the 17th December, her Majesty's screw ship Niger, 14, Commander Heath, arrived from Lagos, and b oarded her, tith dispatches from Com modore Bruce for England. These displtches, it was understood, contain official informati on to the Admiralty of $ desperate and fatal fight with the negroes at Lagos by the Niger ship's company ; in which a ff a i r Mears. Dyer and Hall, mates of th e Ni ger, were killed, and nine men were also killed an d wounded. It appears th at for some time there has been a dis play of some very ill feeling between those on the coast who are d esirous of suppressing slavery, and a party whose " occupation has gone " by the activity of the cruise rs i n putting down the slave trade. The former party h ave been nealem in their endeavours to prevent the latt er from bringing slaves from the in terior to the coast market ; And the slavers, on the other hand, have attempted by every means to coerce our friends, until at length they have come to blows. The Niger, cruising on the coast, determined on a demonstration against the blacks, landed her boats to protect our allies and to drive off their enemies, when a bloody encounter ensued, and the seamen and marines of the Nig er , being overpowered by numbers, were obliged to retr eat, fighting the i r way to their boats, with the disastrous uswilties above reported. -chief, Commodore Bruce, in the Penelope, commander-in-chief; teamn.frigate.; Captain Lyster, with the Sealark, 8, and one o r two other men-of-war, ar rived off Lagos, from Ascension, after the fight, and remaining there, dispatched the Niger to Sierra Leone, to complete provisions and to take down a detachment of the West India regiment, when it was expected the commodore would commence active operations against the slave-dealing wretches, and, it is hoped, will inflict upon them such a chas tisement as shall avenge the deaths of the gallant toofthe Niger, and shall finally put slave dealing in that quarter of _ _ the a o ffic coast. oras finishings and t. seamenstroke Just published, 2 vols., Bvo., cloth, 329., LIFE AND LETTERS OF B ART HOLD GEORGE NIEBUHR, From the German and Original Sources.

I Ilierlll t 2 FAREWELL, OLD YEAR! marked by the revolution of Empires and the convulsion of Kingdoms, by the progress of Arts and Exhibitions of Industry, fraught w ith events which will Le recorded on the historic page, forming an epoch interesting to the Philosopher and the Mechanic— a great step in the progress of civilization, and a bond of amity to the hostile tribes of the human race The gathering of a' , Nrtions in the chief commercial city in the _ . world, has been an event long to be remembered. The magnificent outlay, amazing preparations, and highly cultivated taste displayed in the memorable Exhibition, aroused the attention of all classes— from the unskilled barbarian to the professor of science—from the beloved Sovereign of our country to the most distant member of her extensive empire : millions visited the metropolis during this display, and the inhabitants of the City received numerous additions to the sources of gratification every day unfolding. Great as was this expo sition of the resources, skill, and industry of all nations, approved and instructive as were its results, E. MOSES and SON, though they had little to learn from the styles and fabrics of dress presented in the World's Show, being connected with all the most celebrated con tributors, and engaging the same talent in the manufacture of their clothing ; yet thy had the pleasure of tendering their attention to thousands who visited their Establishments, and favoured them with their support : nor were they less gratified by the spontaneous manner in which approbation was manifested towards their great business undertakings, all based on such a system as gratifies the observer while it secures the proper advancement of society by diffusing a correct and elevated taste. This they assert with the most substantial proof that they are giving expression to the senti ments of thousands, who will long remember their business Establish ments as the principal attractions of the City. The Glass Palace may henceforth be little regarded, or may be entirely removed ; but E. MOSES and SON, encouraged by the confidence and patronage of thousands, will endeavour to render their Establishments attractive by the magnificence of their Stock, its adaptation to all Seasons, its unparalleled elegance, and its prices, below those of any other house in the kingdom ; they therefore hail the New Year, in the spirit of tradesmen, posted up to the present moment, ready to meet all the commands of their friends and patrons in the City or in the Country, to supply at any moment the most appropriate style of dress at the lowest rate, or to give imme diate attention, and, they doubt not, great satisfaction to those Gentlemen who favour them with their orders in the Bespoke De partment. For festive occasions they invite an inspection of their elegant fabrics and most modern styles. For Winter Wear they recom mend, with the highest satisfaction, their endless variety of warm and comfortable dress ; they also request the attention of Gentle men whose Sons have returned 'rout school to spend their holidays, to pay a visit to their City or West End Establishments, and to select from their varied and immense Stock of Juvenile Dress, which has the three following reQuisites combined—Fashion, Durability, and Cheapness. Nor have they neglected to provide for the Year 1852 every Article in tl7e Outfitting Department. Furs, the last im ported from the far-famed hunting stations, manufactured to the latest styles, and preserved from the destruction of the moth by a Peculiar process. To particularize Hats, Caps, Hosiery, Boots, Shoes, &c., &c., &c., is unnecessary. A visit to E. MOSES and SON'S Establishments in Aldgate and Minories, or New Oxford-street, corner of Hart-street, will convey some idea of their derermnination in reference to the year 1852.

By a letter from the Mediterranean to the 26th of December, we are informed of great discontent prevail ing among the assistant-surgeons of the squadron, owing to the arbitrary conduct of Sir William Parker in de priving sundry of them of their cabins, &o. Measles have broken out on board the Bellerophon, 78, Captain Lord Paulet, and liberty to go on shore is prohibited to her crew. At the date of our letter she had sent two subordinate officers and three boys, labouring under the disease, to Malta Hospital. A party of liberty-men at tacked a sergeant of marines belonging to the depot ship Hercules, who was on shore looking for a straggler, since i which marine patrols have been furnished from the flag ship Queen, and the Superb and Bellerophon, for the preservation of peace on shore by men on leave from the squadron. One of the men of the Queen was found dead under his mess-table on Christmas-day. PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—The examination of the remaining stock of " preserved meat" in store at Cla• rence-yard was resumed by the officers forming the board this morning; but they were again obliged to leave off prematurely, owing to the nausea engendered by their unwholesome task. They opened 497 canisters, varying in the amount of their contents from.lolb, to lOilb. each, 466 of which were condemned and thrown ouerboard at Spithead, and 31 only considered fit to let pass for distribution among the poor. Each day brings to light some item of disgust in the matter of the com modity sealed up as " preserved meat." To-day w 6 have inspected clots of hair, a piece of intestine with the manure in it, a huge lump of gangrenous kidney, and such like filthy items. But for the great efficacy of the disinfecting solution of Dr. Sir William Burnett, the Direetor-General of the Medical Department of the Navy, which is profusely used in the store where the examination is going on, it would be impossible for the officers to prosecute their investigation for long together, owing to the sickening stench arising from the stuff around them. There remain about 2,600 more cases to open, which will occupy the rest of the week. This afternoon Dr. Twynaw, an experimental agriculturist, applied to purchase a quantity of the offal condemned, with the view of its forming the matrix of ammoniacal manure, but no item of it was allowed thus to escape, and the gentleman was recommended by the authorities to make his application to the Lords of the Admiralty. PORTSMOUTH, WEDNESDAY.—This morning the ex amination of the canisters of " preserved meats" was resumed at the Royal Clarence Victualling Establish ment, and so far from the investigation exhibiting any improvement in the stock as the Board progressed with their labour, the result showed a realization of still worse delinquency. Out of 300 canisters, of the respective size of 101 b., 1011 b., 1011 b., and 111 b. each, only one was suffered to pass as consumable, the rest were con demned and thrown overboard at sea. The contents ex posed to-day were chiefly loose putrid matter, now and then varied with a few stones, entrails with the excre ment in them, kidneys green with decomposition, lumps of heart, and in many cases whole hearts festering with putridity, coagulated blood in great abundance, tall ow , lumps of tendons, garbage, grease, and offal. After three hours' labour the officers forming the Board were compelled to leave off, the stench was so great; indeed, it would have overpowered them, but that a man was ever and anon employed in well saturating the floor about them with Sir William Burnett's disinfecting fluid, with the extra precaution of a blanket saturated with it being hung up imme diately oontiguoars to the bench whereon the contents of the cams e wereemptied. After st an di ng for an hour, I wee pelled to quit the store f rom t h e over powering -ate , and Dr. M'Ken c hi e ( t h e medical officer of the card of Examination) also felt sick from the influence of the noxious odour soon after commencing his labours in Use morning. The examination of the contents of the canisters is conducted on the fairest prin ciple—the top part and the bottom part of each canister being alternately selected to commence upon, and the contents of the whole aro gradually exposed and brought under inspection. Due notice of the intended examina tion was given to the contractor's agent and his sure ties, requesting their attendance, but no one has ap peared, and the contractor himself is not to be found. At the commencement of this investigation, on Tuesday week, there were 6,660 canisters, varying in size from 41b. to 121 b., and some of them of 321 b. each, and about three months ago, when the stench arising from the store in which they were kept made the authorities of the Clarence-yard suspect something was wrong, the agent to the contractor came down and took aw a y 2,000 canisters (containing 17,0001 b. of stuff) without opening them. This contract has long since been paid for. The goods are warranted to last sound and wholesome for five years after delivery into Admiralty store. After the 300 canisters above mentioned were examined to-day, one of the canisters of 321 b. w as opened, labelled " Goldner's patent stewed beef," and bearing the following directions:—" The canister to be put into n saucepan with warm water and boiled about 15 minutes, then the meat to be taken out, and add to the gravy a portion of water, rice, or any vegetables, and an admirable dish will be obtained." This " admirable dish," without the aid of the saucepan, rice, and vegetables, presented a sickening mass of revolting decomposition. It was in tended as the food of 40 seamen, marines, or boys of her Majesty's fleet. The examining officers intend to take rest to-morrow from their disgusting task, and will not resume it until Friday. About 2,000 more canisters re main to be examined. That " preserved meat" from this stock had been issued to sea-going ships we know, as Commodore Lambert, of the Fox, on the East India station, returned a lot, with the report that after par taking of some of it those who had done so had been seized with sickness, &e., and we believe Commodore Martin, of the Prince Regent, 90, on the Lisbon sta tion, also had some of it, and returned it; and so doubt less have many other ships. PLYMOUTH, WEDNESDAY.--Her Majesty's ship Tweed, Captain Lord Francis Russell, arrived hero at 9.30 lex. yesterday. She left Monte Video on the 3d of November, arrived at Rio Janeiro on the 11th, and sailed thence on the 15th. She left at Rio her Majesty's ships Southampton, Crescent, Harpy, and Cormorant, and the United States' frigate Congress, and the cor vettes Jamestown and Falmouth. The Tweed was com missioned on the 7th of June, 1848, and has been em ployed principally in cruising on the coast of Brazil, where she has captured one slave vessel and driven another ashore.

The Southampton was commis sioned on the 3d of August, 1848; was twelve months on the Cape station, and relieved Sir Thomas Herbert, in the Raleigh, on the Brazilian station, in Sept., 1849. The Virago towed the Southampton out of Rio on her way to the Pacific. The Conflict sailed on the 16th for a =lie to the northward% The Centaur, with the flag of Rsar-Admiral Hender son, arrived at Monte Video on the Ist of November. having been nine days on her passage from Rio, owing to the machinery getting out of order (air piston-rod breaking), and being only able to work one engine. In the River Plate everything appears to be progress ing favourably with Urquizas, who has crossed the water and is making his way to the southward into the pro vince of Buenos Ayres. Those formerly most sanguine supporters of Roses in the River begin now to entertain doubts of his stability. The Southampton, on her passage home, 25th Nov., passed the island of Trinidad, 5i miles.

Captain Pluto was distinguished with a war medal of seven bars, which he was always proud to wear. WOOLWICH, JAN. 7.—A number of shipwrights com menced taking down the scaffolding at the stern of the Royal Albert, 120, to-day, and a gang of convict labourers were employed in removing it to make room for the re quisite alterations to fit this splendid vessel for the re ception of a screw propeller. The required alterations will not occupy a long time, and as the ether work ne launching will be cessary to be done to re n d er t h e R oyal Albert ready for proceeded with at the same time, there is every reason to believe the vessel will be launched in the latter part of the summer or autumn of the present year.

Th e y, however, failed in their object t o engage the King to promise, on the part of himself and subjects, not to favour the slave trade. Mr. Beecroft then determined on seeking another interview with the King, and in order to show his sable Majesty the hopelessness of any successful persistance in carrying on the inhuman traffic, arranged that the armed boats of the squadron should accompany him up the river under a flag of truce. Accordingly, a course over the bar having been surveyed, the Bloodhound steamer, with a white flag, and the following boats of the squadron, Mr. Bee croft in Commander Wilmot'a gigs, with a large white flag, starting 100 yards ahead, ' proceeded at daylight of the 25th of November towards the river : Philomel—Commander Forbes in the whale boat ; Lieutenant Williams, in the pinnace, withl2-pounder carronade, and cutter and whaleboat. Harlequin—Commander Wilmot, in the gig; Lieutenant Boughey, in the pinnace, with cutter and two whale-boats. Volcano—Commander Coote, in whale-boat; Lieut. Reeves, in paddle-box boat; Lieut. Bobinson, in paddle-box boat, with cutter. - Niger—Commander Heath l in the gig Lieut. Dunn, in the pinnace, with three cutters and whale boat. Waterwitch—Commander Gardner, in whale-boat; Lieutenant Graham, in pinnace, with cutter and whale boat. As the force crossed the bar, and about four miles distant from the point, a heavy fire of musketry was directedthis ineffectual towards showit. N o o f n otice , i tion however, the progress was taken of of the boat s , an d the flags of truce were kept flying. When within about a mile and a half of the town the Bloodhound grounded, and as she could not be got off the bo a t s f ormed line and proceeded up the river, and kept on, th e fl ag of truce flying until they re ceived a hea vy fi re from some guns and musketry on shore. The fi re was harmless on account o f the dis tance ; but n ow the boats opened their fire with shrapnell sh e ll s and round shot, the Niger . at the tinuous fire for nearly an hour, same time throwing a shell or two on the point near the mouth of the river. After exchanging a con tinuous more than a mile with bodies of men, the . boats dashed at the shore and effected a landing . simul taneously at one spot, when leaving a sufficient guard w ith a beach lined at the . boats, about 160 officers and men fought th eir w ay into the town.

After some gallant fighting i n this way against an increasing enemy, which am ounted to at least 5,000, and havin g two o ffi cers kill e d and si x men wouuded, Captain Forbes determined on setting fire to as many houses as they could and retreating to the boats. having fired the houses in the neighbourhood they retreated in gooi order, and having re-embarked, proceeded to the Bloodhound, got her afloat the same night, and the next morning re -crossed the bar ; the force having sustained the following when the num ber .. of the enemy is taken into account, and when it is considered that, in addition to their were . c loss—comparatively small force of half a dozen large guns, and as many swivels, .onstantly served, almost every house was a fortification : which Mr. Dyer, m a t e of KILLED.

Bagnall and J 3 ho se At the time the explosion took place, a m a n n amed John Evans, the furnace-man, was at the boiler. He —0 is stated to have been a very steady man. Evans had employed under e ingtho him two assistants, one named Allman and the other Osborne. Daniel Bradbury was the engineer, and there are some singular circumstances connected with the escape of this man upon the occasion. Bradbury' s duties, as engineer, were in part to superintend the boilers; and it appears that this morning he had not left the boiler which exploded half a minute before the accident occurred. While standing at the boiler-side, the bell rang for the engine to be stopped, in order that the rolls might be changed, when Bradbury at once repaired to his engine. He did not reach it before the boiler exploded and the mischief was completed. Evans and his two assistants were instantly killed; and a man named James, who was by trade a shingler, died from some cause which surgeopa cannot satisfaotorily explain, as there are no outward appear ances of injury. Mr. Davies, one of the firm, who lives in the neigh bOttrhood, Nvas shortly 0 the spot after the exWelon Yesterday a commission of lunacy to inquire into the state of the mind of Mrs. Catherine Cumming commenced its sittings at the Eyre Arms, St. John's wood, before Mr. Commissioner Barlow. Sir Frederick Thesiger, Q.C., and Mr. Petersdorff appeared in support of the commission ; and Mr. Ed win James, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Wilkins, and Mr. Southgate against it. The jury having been sworn, and the other cus tomary formalities having been gone through, Sir Frederick Thesiger opened the case iu a speech of considerable length. The report of the Commissioners of Lunacy to the Lord Chancellor, the reports of Sir Alexander Mori son and of Dr. Monro, together with various other documents, having been put in and proved, Mrs. Elizabeth Browne (examined by Mr. Peters dorff) deposed as follows :—I reside in Roberts buildings, Pimlico. At one time I was living with Captain and Mrs. Cumming as nurse. I was there nine weeks, and I left March 16, 1846. They were living at No. 1, Belgrave-place. When I was first hired I saw Mrs. Cumming. Captain Cum ming was so ill at the time that he seldom left his bed. It was necessary, in consequence of his illness, that I should sleep in the same room with him. He was between 80 and 90 years of age, and was a man of gentlemanly habits. Mrs. Cumming was about 60 years of age, but she was so untidy in her habits that I could not well judge. Her conduct to her husband was very bad. At one time she came and put her hand under his cravat, and afterwards broke the bellrope. The attack was accora• panied with great violence. Captain Cumming did nothing to provoke her. She was very abusive, and used the worst language all the time I was there. I said her conduct was very shocking. She often said that she wished her husband was dead, and that she could kill him. There was a servant of all work in the house at the time, named Susan Clarke. She was present when Mrs. Cumming made the attack oa her husband. Clarke and I got Mrs. Cumming from her husband's room into the parlour adjoining. Mrs. Cumming used to get up at three or four o'clock in the morning and knock violently at her husband's door, thus disturbing him from sleep, and then she would swear at me because I would not go in and give her more drink. I had to give the captain medi cine at different hours of the night. I often heard Mrs. Cumming charge her husband with hoarding her mo ney. She said that she had 2,0001. worth of property in Wales going to decay, and that she would never do any thing with it. She would curse and swear for a length of time—for a full hour at a stretch—without the slightest provocation. On one occasion she knelt down and prayed God to send curses on her grand children and their parents. The grandchildren were very young, and could never have given her any serious offence. Mrs. Cumming said that Mrs. Hooper (her daughter) was in the habit of going into the park with the soldiers, and that that was the reason she would not have her in the house. She said the little Hoopers were very bad children. She said that Mr. Ince (her son-in-law) had robbed her of plate and of a copper coal-scuttle. She said there had been au intimacy between me and Mr. Ince, that we were as intimate as a man and his wife, and that that was the reason why Mr. Ince was so civil to me. She said that Mr. Ince was as intimate with all the women as the old captain himself, and that he always gave us 7s. That charge was not true. I have twenty-four grandchildren, and it is not likely.—(Laughter.) She used to sh ep in her boots, and keep her mone y in them during the night. She was very dirty in her habits. She kept and fed cats in her bedroom, and never allowed them to go out. The room consequently became very disagreeable and unbearable. I ;gave notice to leave three times while I was there. On one occasion Captain Comming wished for his writing desk, and asked Mrs. I Cumming for it. He went up-stairs to the second floor front room, which was locked. I was sent up to ask him to come down. His reply was he would come down if Mrs. Cumming would allow him his desk, but she refused. At length he came down and seized a poker to protect himself with, and then Mrs. Cumming was afraid of him. She had previously been abusing him ; and she afterwards got him on the hearth-rug and beat him most dreadfully. He became so faint and exhausted that I was obliged to send for the doctor. I and my fellow-servant removed Mrs. Cumming. Sh e ver y f requen tl y k noc k e d at hi s d oor and said I was in bed with him. He was not allowed to have what, in the state of his health, was requisite for him. Mrs. Cumming used to order fowls and keep them so long that they were unfit for use, and then they were buried. She gave Bd. per lb. for meat for her cats, and it was served up on clean plates with clean knives and forks and towels. The captain used to have the liquor in which the meat was cooked. Once she sent in some uncoked mutton, which she said the doctor might cook. Cross-examinned by Mr. JAMES.--1 have been ex amined before. Captain and Mrs. Cumming fired I was al wa y s quarre lli ng uncomfortably together. with her. The Captain was sometimes -aggravated to use harsh expressions towards her. I saw Mr. luce, the other son-in-law, about three weeks ago. I called at his house to leave my card of address, as I am a nurse, and wanted an engagement. Mrs. Hooper never came to Mrs. Cumming's house. Mrs. Inoe came once. Neither of the cats used the knives and forks— (A laugh)—but Mrs. Cumming cut up the meat for them. She always pare the meat to the cats and the liquor to her husband. It was not good enough for a sick person. Mr. Ince attended Captain Cumming as a tnedical man. Mrs. Cumming drank a great deal of brandy, and I occasionally required a little drop of gin. The Captain drank very little, a very little would overcome him. He might some times have been the worse for what he had taken. At this stage of the proceedings a juror suggested that Mrs. Cumming ought:U.' he present if she wished, and after some discussion kg tc her ability to attend, she was broughr into the room. ,he appeared to be suffering under severe indisposition, and to be ex ceedingly feeble ; but in other respects she was . a very fine looking old lady, and showed no signs oi mental aberration. Sergeant WitaciNs asked her if she felt equal to the , task she had imposed upon herself (for her attendance was of course voluntary ?) Mrs. Cumming—l should hope so, sir. The COMMISSIONER (pointing to the witness)—Do you know that person ? Mrs. Cumming—Yes, but she is dressed differently from what she was then. I recollect her. She was a nurse. The Co:4llsmNza—Do you know her name ? Mrs Cumming—Sho wag very tenacious in givicg her name. The COMMISSIONEP.—She says heY name is Eliza we both Browne. Mrs. Cumming—Then, of course, must believe her. Cross-examination resumed.—Mrs. Cumming kept three cats. There was no sandbox in the room for them. Mr. Ince was at Captain CUraming's house nearly every day, but it was after the captain had dined. Sometimes the Captain had turtle soup for dinner. i n n I never heard Mrs. Cumming call out fa passioor help, on she account of her husband's violence. would sometimes call out when no one was near her. She would scream out when she wuas sed to co in her bedroom when she was alone. Sometimes I nverse with Mr. Ince, as a medical gentleman, but not v:ith out Mrs. Cumming's knovvledge. Mr. Ince did not a .. at that time say anything a bout taking out commis sion of lunacy. Mr. Inc e generally saw Mrs. Cu m ming every day. —Captain d Ike-examined by Sir F. TiIESIGEI t Cumming was in a very feeble state of health, him. lie was or d ere d to a very little overcam e take brandy.

For dinner he used to have beef-water.—(Laughter.) Sometimes he had fish, and sometimes meat. The beef -water was made of a pound of gravy beef boiled for ten minutes. The cats had the meat and the cap tain the water. She used to say that she would not have the goodness boiled out of the meat she bought for her oats. The Captain was not violent, but if a person put his fist i n M r . J ames ' s face he would i resent t.—(Laughter.) The Captain used sometimes to say, " Confound those cats, they shall not c ome here," to which hi s w if e used to reply, " They shall come here, for they are your superiors." Had not heard Airs. Cumming acc use h er hus b and of having illegitimate children, but had once beard him say that she knew well her daughter, Mrs. Hooper, was not his child, but a Captain Davis's. Sarah Alsop had lived in the service of Mrs. Ince from 1836 to 1850. Mrs. Cumming appeared fond of her (witness's) mistress, but excitable. Mrs. Cum ming's peculiarities had appeared to incre ase l a t terly. The Court then adjourned until 10 this day. THE ENGINEERS and THEIR EMPLOYERS. ACTUAL COMMENCEMENT OF THE STRIKE. The dispute became still further complicated yes terday by the closing of the establishment of Mr, Scott, machinist, King-street, Commercial-road East, in consequence of the refusal of the men to submit to a new condition in connexion with overtime, proposed to be carried out by their employer, one of the mas ters who on Saturday last gave notice that their es tablishments would be completely closed on the 10th instant. It appears from the statements of the men that some of their number had lost time from the com mencement of the week up to Wednesday night to the amount of a quarter of a day, in consequence of which Mr. Scott demanded that they should work overtime in the evening, so as to make up the time they had lost; and, further, Mr. Scott intimated that in the event of their failing to comply with this demand, it was his fixed intention to stop two hours' pay for every hour of time which they had lost, or might lose. The men re monstrated against the adoption of what they conceived to he an unreasonable proposition, and, after some further parley, refused to submit to it, upon which Mr. Scott replied that in that case they had better quit their work at once, as he fully in tended to close the shop on Saturday, and the two days intervening between that time and the present could make little difference to either party. The men acted neon Mr. Scott's suggestion without com municating their intention to the geaeral secretary of the society, or the executive council, and not return ing to their work after the dinner hour, the establish ment was forthwith closed. T he establishment thus closed was a small concern, employing not more than about sixteen or eighteen members of the Amalgamated Society. The follow ing communication was received yesterday by Mr. Allan : " London, Jan. 6, 1852. " Central Association of Employers of Operative Engineers, 30, Bucklersbury. " Sir,—Your letter of yesterday, stating that you had been informed this committee were desirous of seeing a deputation of workmen, having been considered, at the ordinary meeting this day, lam directed to state" that whilst the individual members of this association are always ready to receive any communication from their workmen in their respective establishments, they cannot recognise the executive council of the Amalgamated So ciety as the proper channel for effecting any arrange ments between themselves and those in their employ ment,this association having been formed for the express purpose of defending themselves and their well-disposed workmen from the dictation and pernicious interference of the council you represent.—l am, &c., SIDNEY SMITH, Secretary. " Mr. Wm. Allan, Secretary Amalgamated Society of Engineers, &c. The above letter will be submitted to the executive council at its sitting to-morrow. A meeting of the London district committee took t p a l t a i c o e n s l a s f t r om night, variouswh ereports n establishments unanimously - i n favour of maintaining the position assumed by the executive council. It is believed that work at the shops to be closed will cease on the Friday night, the week's wages in many establishments being then due, owing to a pre valent practice of keeping a day's psy in hand. _, MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY.---A step, which seems to be an advance towards a reconciliation, has been taken by the executive committee of the mated Society, by the publication yesterday the morn ing,fol- in one of the Manchester newspapersi oute._Lon. lowing advertisement :—"Enginef l rs D to inform don, Tuesday Night, Jan. 6, 18x?_ ho working 11:0 P Executivelin Council of the Amalgamated Society beg the employers in their trade tha s t they have never at t ntention to do s demanded the dismissal of persons self-acting iriebines, nor is it 3 Jotts, William 1.1 Ives, William Newton, Jame —(Signed) William Brown, Thomas llorsfall, John° John Reid, members of the council;,, This • W.

An accident of a peculiarly lamentable character took place last week near the village of St. Bees, Cumberland, by which a young man named John Brindle, the nephew of Mr. Brindle, the proprietor of the Railway Hotel, St. Bees, was instantaneously deprived of life in a very fearful manner. It seems that the deceased, who had been stopping with his uncle, went in a gig to the village of Ecrewont, accompanied by a young lady named Mary Ann Bowness, and a farm servant empl o y e d b y Mr. Brindle. On their return to St. Bees in the even ing the party were seen driving at a very rapid pace; and it appears that while the gig was descending a steep hill leading to St. Bees the horse started off in a manner to alarm the farm servant, who jumped ou t an d t r i e d to catch the reins, but being unsuccessful be fell and re ceived some severe injuries. The horse, alarmed, set off down the hill with fearful velocity, and as the reins gave way the animal continued its career, the driver being quite unable to control it, On reaching the foot of the hill the animal and the gig went with great violence against the shop window of Mr. Braithwaite, grocer, which was completely destroyed and knocked into the road. Such was the violencs of the shock, that Mr. Brindle was thrown against the wall with so much force that his skull was completely shattered to pieces, and fragments of it, along with p or tions of his brains , were w asn it was ad young lying scattered about. The young wom an was also thrown through the window, but, strange to say, received aenndl y very yy valuablelittle one b The ro ke ohnoerse of its , necessary to kill it. A lady sa d some which legs, a children had b een sitting at Mr. Braithwaite's wi ndow only a few minutes before the accident happened.. But for th e f ortu i tous circumstance of their quitting it thet they must h ave b een killed or seriously inju red. inquest, wh ere th e above facts were detailed, the e jury returned a verdict of - stated that th r e uniortunate young accidental death.

In all the other branches of trade there has been a continued steadiness which leaves VhSe OreeCallarertei . no thing for remark.
