Frem the Official List, PUBLISHED EVERY TITESDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING, AFTERNOON MEETING. The Convention assembled shortly after half-past two o'clock on Saturday afternoon; Ms. M'Grath in the chair. The galleries and the body of the hall, except the space in the centre, which was partitioned off by fermi for the accommodation of the delegates, was crowded - to excess, . as has been the case during the whole of the sittings. After the names of the members of the Convention had been read over, Mr. JONES begged leave to read a paragraph from a letter which he had just received, in order that it might put some of their friends upon their guard. The writer of the letter stated that he had been informed by one of the C division of police that some of the force attended the meetings of the Convention in plain clothes, got into conversation with persons by sympathing with their feel. ings, and even insinuated themselves into people's dwell ings, and having secured information by that means,'they went away and reported it to their superiors. —(Loud groans, and cries of " Hear, hear.") Mr. JONES postponed his motion for the adoption of the tricolours to be worn by the Chartists. Mr. WEST, as one of the deputation who had been appointed to wait upon Lord John Russell, stated that his Lordship was absent when the deputation at tended at the Treasury, and was not likely to return until four or five o'clock, and under those circumstances, they did not think it worth while to wait upon him again. Mr. West complained of the disre spectful conduct which the under-secretary whom they saw at the Treasury showed to the deputation. He looked upon them, he said, with scorn and disgust, as if, instead of being respectable working men, they were mere crawling reptiles, only fit to be oppressed and crushed. He thought it necessary to mention this circumstance, in order that the Government might see how they had been treated by the officials at the Tree. sury.—(Hear, hear.) RESULT OP INTERVIEW \PITH MIIIMBERS OP PARLLL. MENT. A intery n ie n w mb vv e i r th o s f or d e e r l a e l g m at; e s: b . si r a s ted the Parliament resnl t o with re spect to the measure introduced by Sir George Grey, and also with respect to the support of the Charter, Mr. JONES said he had thought it necessary to wait upon Lord Morpeth, as one of the representatives of the West Riding of Yorkshire, and his Lordship, in the course of the interview, asked a question which was as extraor dinary a question as a Cabinet Minister could ask. He said," Perhaps it is not a fair question to ask, but you may have no objection to answer, what your intentions are on Monday next with regard to the procession." He (Mr. Jones) said, if his Lordship would recognise him as one of a deputation from the National Convention, he would answer the question, but not otherwise. His Lordship consented, and he (Mr. Jones) told him that the procession intended to go unarmed, and would only proceed as far as the corner of the Westminster bridge, and instead of creating any disturbance they intended to co-operate with the police in preserving the peace. But he also positively declared that if they were interfered with, it being their intention not to strike the first blow, they would act on the de fensive, and in that case should.there be any slaughter he requested his Lordship to inform his colleagues in government that the blood of the people which might be spilt would be on the heads of her Majesty's Govern ment.—(lmmense and enthusiastic cheering.) A motion of Mr. HARNEY, to the effect that in or,. to provide for any contingency which might prevent the delegates assembling :at the Convention, they should each be at liberty to nominate some thorough Chartist to represent them, which, after a good deal of oratorical display, was agreed to. The Convention then proceeded to dispose of other business. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. We have received Cape of Good Hope papers to the 29th of January, which give most satisfactory accounts of the state of the colony. Sir Harry Smith was proceeding rapidly on his tour of inspection beyond the limits of the colony. He has made the port at the mouth of the Buffalo, is liafirland, in a British port, called East London. Waterloo Bay, in the district of Victoria, formerly the Neutral terri ; tory, is also provided for. Custom-house officers being appointed for each, with a board for the improvement of the " Port of East London;" and the Collector of Customs at this port has instructed officers of his de partment, namely, Mr. Charles Wolfe and Mr. Thomas Nightingale, to proceed forthwith as sub-collectors, to open the new ports of Waterloo Bay and East London, and to receive Customs duties thereat. The South African Commercial Advertiser of the 29th of January contains the following report of Sir H. Smith's progress through the provinces:— " Shiloh, 15th January, 1849. " His Excellency on his route to Natal did not visit Fort Beaufort, but, leaving it on his right, proceeded to li inspect the Kat River Settlement, where he arrived on ' the 10th. After proceeding through the settlement, he expressed his satisfaction at the state of it. " Subsequently he appointed a committee for the roads of the settlement, and the Hottentot Commandant Groepe to be justice of the peace. In reply to a me morial of the inhabitants, his Excellency expressed his regret that they should have had occasion to mention their magistrate in any other terms than that of respect. " On the 12th instant his Excellency arrived at Shiloh, and resumed his route on the 14th. During his stay at this place he selected a site for a town at the junction of ' the Klipplaats and Ox Kraal Rivers, which he honoured by naming after the place of his birth (Whittlesea). This spot is about half an hour's walk from the Mis sion -house, and possesses the following advantages :—lt is capable of extensive irrigation by the Klipplaats and Ox Kraal Rivers, at a very small expense ; it is situate in the vicinity of rich coal deposit, and extensive forests are in the immediate neighbourhood. It is on the direct line from the Port of London (Buffalo Mouth) to Coles berg, over a tract of country presenting fewer ob stacles to land carriage than any line of road of equal length in the colony. In addition to these resources, it may with confidence be asserted that the coun try about Whittlesea is the best corn-growing land in the district of Albert, irrigated, as it is, by the ever -flowing Klipplaats and Ox Kraal Rivers. A sample of the coal mentioned I will forward to you by the first opportunity, and you will confer considerable obligation on the inhabitants of this part of the colony if you will be so good as to hand this sample to the officer commanding Royal Engineers to be assayed. His Ex cellency gave all parties the greatest satisfaction by the open and generous manner in which he received all who approached him, by his evident anxiety to remedy the evils they are labouring under, and his zealous endea vours to develope the resources of the country." Another hand writes : 1 " His Excellency Sir Harry Smith arrived at Shiloh on the 12th, near to which spot he has chosen a site for a new town. He has also made Kama understand the boundary of his new country. He left Shiloh last Friday on his way to the Kei. An address was presented to him, which he received in the most friendly manner, assuring us we might depend upon as much security as the people had in the streets of London; that to any farms he might sell the titles should be given without delay, and that he would expect the money with equal promptness. He also assured us that all farms in the colony in dispute should be settled, and that if 10 surveyors were not sufficient he would get 50. If he fulfil all his promises things will go well. Field Com mandant Joubert proceed: with the Governor to Natal, and thence returns with him to the Buffalo. All is peace here. " Nothing can exeeed the delight of the Boers on seeing the Governor—addresses and compliments every where."

THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAM—TUE LIGIIITIIIII We understand that th e li g h tn i ng of Sunday had L. considerable effect on the wi res o f t h e electric telegraph y , particularly on the line eastward from Manchester to Normanton. Not only were the needles greatly de flected, and their power of answering to the handles considerably weakened, but those at the Normanton station were found to have had their poles reversed by some action of the electric fluid in the atmosphere. The mischief has since been repaired, and the needles are again in good working order. It is found, however, that those wires which pass through hilly districts, and are consequently conveyed through railway tunnels, are t r h ic an or th o o t s h e er of ca th us e es m , o a r n e d ie t y h e e i needles more more trade Qt country.—Wanchoter Guardian, deflected, bye le ct NOTICES OF CERTIFICATES.

On Saturday last a numerous and influential meet ing of Noblemen, Members of Parliament, and other gentlemen connected with Ireland, was held in Com mittee-room No. 2, in the House of Commons, at one o'clock. The meeting was called pursuant to a requisition signed by Lord Jocelyn, Sir Robert Ferguson, Mr. Oliver D. Grace, M.P., and Mr. Alexander Shai to Adair, M.P., who had been ap pointed at a previous preliminary meeting, to pre pare the necessary resolutions. The object in view was, by a strong declaration emanating from those present, to give increased confidence to the Exe cutive Government in Ireland, and to discourage the recent seditious proceedings in that country. At the hour appointed the room was densely crowded, Amongst those present were the Marquis of Dowi, shire, the Marquis of Abercorn, Lord Besborough, the Earl of Charlemont, Lord Devon, Lord Cour town, Lord Newry, Lord Jocelyn, Lord Bernard, the Earl of Erne, Lord Castlereagh, Sir Edward M'Naghten, Sir William Verner, Mr. George Alex ander Hamilton, Mr. Napier, Mr. Grogan, Mr. Monsell, Mr. Augustus Stafford, Mr. Samuel Mar tin, Mr. William Keogh, Mr. John O'Connell, Mr. John Reynolds, Colonel Dunne, Mr. Richard Fox, the Hon. Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Fitzstephen French, Sir Percy Nugent, Mr. Nicholas Power, Sir Denham Norreys, Mr. Willis, and many others whose names we were unable to ascertain. The chair was taken by the Marquis of DOWN • SHIRR, who stated that he felt it would be necessary for him to occupy the time of the meeting for but a very short period, as he was sure all the noblemen and gentlemen by whom he was surrounded were fully sensible of the emergency which had called them together, and were ready to give to the Government every assurance of support and assistance towards defeating the attempts which some misguided persons were making to disturb the peace of Ireland, to overthrow the established authorities in that kingdom, and to embroil the country in anarchy and confusion. He was then surrounded by gentlemen of all sects, creeds, and parties, b u t f or t h e purposes they were met they knew no distinction of party, as he believed there was but one opinion amongst them, that it was absolutely necessary to put down persons who were engaged in the transactions to which he had alluded, and to strengthen the Executive by all legitimate means. He had nothing further to add, except to read the resolutions which had been prepared by the Committee, and to state that, when signed, he should have great pleasure in forwarding them to Lord Clarendon. The Noble Marquis then read the reso lutions, which were as follows : " Whereas, certain public addresses and declarations have been put forth in Ireland, inciting to the levying of war against the Cr own , by p a rticular and fu instructions to that end directed ; and whereas such l declarations tend to develop and encourage an anar chical spirit, and one destructive of the general objects of civil society. " We, the undersigned, being assembled, without distinction of religious creed or of political party, for the support of law and right, do hereby feel bound to repeat the declaration of our unaltered alle giance to our Sovereign, and attachment to the insti. tutions of the empire ; and do further declare that we will, to the uttermost of our power, resist, in our own persons and by the exercise of our influence, all such traitorous attempts to subvert the laws, and all outrages against life and property, as may by any parties be advised and encouraged. " And we do therefore place at the disposal of the Crown our services, to be so applied as may be most conducive to the security, tranquillity, and advantage of Ireland." Mr. NAPIER, M.P., rose and said—My Lord Downshire and gentlemen, I approve of the resolu tions which have been just read as far as they go, but I feel that a very important omission is observable in them. I think we should go something further with regard to the subject which has been made a pretext for those seditious practices to which the resolutions refer, and the treasonable designs which have been avowed to effect the destruction of the union of the kingdoms. Mr. J. O'CoNnu.r., M.P., interrupted the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, and protested at its being in sinuated that the agitation for the repeal of the Union involved any want of allegiance to the Sovereign. He had come there for a specific purpose, of which he had notice. His object was to promote unanimity of feeling, but he would not remain there if any of the proceedings were calculated to interfere with his po litical opinions. Mr. NAPIER, M.P., continued. He regretted the Hon. Gentleman had not allowed him to conclude his observations. He did not mean in the least to impute any concurrence in seditious designs to the Hon. Gentleman. On the contrary, he believed that no one more discountenanced such projects than he did ; but he felt bound to submit the amendment which he had proposed. Lord BESIIOROUCII rose to order. He deeply re gretted being obliged to interrupt the Learned Mem ber for th e U n i vers i ty of Du b l i n, b ut h e understood that the m ee ti ng was ca ll e d to a d o pt the resolutions which were proposed, and not to receive ano3,newEsoo positions, cr t o encourage any dscu ss_h. T would, of gentlemen who approved of the resolutionsidinot approve of the m might cours decline doinge,signthem;t . ose who d said, he was re anxious that they should be un an i mous, M Th r e . j am ou edm Nno, e c n o t N w s a E s L t L he a n ga w in ith ro daw s r e n. and extremely mheerly anxious although there were matters in the re ... solutions possibly, at anoth er ti me, he in c7 ig u h sw be dis t p li os whih edt c ocavil, he should not now do so. There was merely one word in the main resolution, which if altered, he could attach hi s s i gnature to them. He meant the word " institutions." lie did not like being pledged to an unalterable attachment to the institutions of the empire, to some of which he was opposed. For instance, Maynooth College was an institution of the empire, of which he was de cidedly in favour, but to which others were consci entiously opposed. In like manner, the United Par liament was an institution of the empire, which very many supported, but which he most decidely opposed. If the word "in s tit u ti on " was converted into "cons tution," all his obj ec ti ons would be removed, and hi ;t wa scruples at an end. H e trusted, as this alteration, the m ee ti ng would assent to it.s a slight Lord JOCELYN and the Noble CzientmAN expressed it as their opinion that the desired alteration ought to he made to meet the views of the Hon. Member. Alr. J. AZINCUSI DI.V., declared the alteration On the 4th inst.

CROWN COURT. Esau Troughton, 30, was indicted for breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Charles Cull, at Ashchurch, on the 24th of November, and stealing therefrom a silver watch, some silver spoons, and other articles. The prisoner was in the prosecutor's employ, as a farm servant, living in the house. In the morning of the day in question, Mr. and Mrs. Cull went to Tewkesbury, giving the prisoner orders to attend to the field work on the farm, and on their return in the evening, about six o'clock, they found that some per son had entered the house by forcing the bolt of a window,land then putting their hands through, had opened the door. On going up-stairs they discovered that some boxes had been completely ransacked ; everything was in confusion, and the articles enume rated in the indictment stolen. Several circum stances tended to attach suspicion to th e p r i soner, who gave a man some cider, and was seen in the cider-house about the time that the robbery was sup posed to have been committed, when his master's orders, and his own duties, should have found him at work in the fields. The next day some of the stolen spoons, wrapped up in a handk erc hi e f , were found hidden in the thatch of the stable. This handker chief belonged to the prisoner's brother Isaac, but was seen in Esau's possession on the day of the robbery. A melancholy feature in this case was that of the prosecution calling the prisoner's aged mother as a witness to prove th e owners hi p of the handkerchief. Thejury found the prisoner Guilty, and,two pre vious convictions, on one of which he was adjudged to be transported, were proved against him. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL said that all reformation in him appeared to be totally hopeless, and passed sentence of fourteen years' transportation. William Bean, 26, broughtjup by a writ of habeas corpus from Bristol gaol, was indicted for feloniously intermarrying with Elizabeth Heddow, at Clifton, on the 113th of June, his ,former wife, Fanny Spriggs, being then alive. The JUDGE told him his case was not a very aggra vated one; still a man deceiving a woman under such circumstances, entailed great injury on the individual and occasioned more evil to society than when a woman committed the offence of bigamy. It was true he had not done the woman the injury he might have done, as it appeared he had never lived with her under the same roof after the completion of the ceremony, and not, therefore, consummated the marriage ; still women's feelings were not to be trifled with, and their hopes of domestic happiness destroyed by men _ acting towards them in such a way. Sentence, three months hard labour. ier ~v-ORTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Chester, April 7. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.) Joseph Clayton, aged 36, and Ralph Webster, 36, were placed at the bar charged, the latter with wil fully setting fire to Clayton's house, and the former with aiding and !assisting, with intent to defraud th e Treasurer; of the Su n Fire-office, the Secretary of the West of England Insurance Company, the owner of the house, Mr. W. Cole, and also the mortgagee, Miss Hannah Studdart. Messrs. Townsend, Egerton, and Brandt appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Temple for the prisoners. The facts of the case were briefly these prisoner Clayton was the keeper of a respectable hotel at Birkenhead, called the Egerton Arms, situate in the immediate neighbourhood of the new docks. On the evening of the 26th July last the house was on fire no less than three times ; first about nine o'clock, again a little before ten, and the :third shortly before eleven. However, through the activity of the police, all the fires were speedily extinguished, the total damage done to the building not being more than 301. The house itself was insured by the owner, Mr. Cole, in the West of England, for 1,200/. ; the stock, furniture, &c., was insured by the prisoner Clayton, for 1,0001. Evidence was adduced, which showed that the principal portion of Clayton's stock had been removed by him from his hotel to a house in Liverpool, where it was seized by the Excise, in con sequence of having been removed without a permit. It was also proved that all the clothing and most of the linen had been taken away. Mr. M'Harg, superinten dent of the police force at Birkenhead, having had his suspicions excited at the first fire had placed a police man to watch the premises, and to this circumstance is mainly owing that the property was not destroyed. However, the strongest evidence against the prisoner was that of Thomas Cross, a shoemaker, who saw Webster place a quantity of shavings under the stairs, and then place a lighted candle to them. He observed this through a window, from the street, and immediately ran into the house and seized Webster, but in consequence of the interference of Clayton, he get away. This was at the last fire. The attesting witness as to the two policies of in surance not being present, those counts in the in• dictment charging the prisoners with setting fire to the premises for the purpose of defrauding the insur ance were abandoned. His LORDSHIP, in summing up the case to the jury, left it to them to say whether the prisoners set fire to the premises wilfully, and if so, whether it was done with the intention of injuring the landlord. The jury, after a short consultation, found the prisoners Guilty. The Learned JUDGE, in passing sentence, said, although there was no legal evidence of the fact, yet there could be no doubt but it was the intention of the prisoners to burn the house, in order to cheat the insurance company. it was of the u t mos t import ance that companies which compensated individuals for loss in case of fire should have all the protection which the law could give them, and, therefore, he did not think he should be doing his duty, if, so far as he was concerned, he did not show an example in such a case by the utmost severity of the law. His Lordship then sentenced the prisoners to be trans ported for the term of fifteen years. April 8. This morning the court was crowded to suffocation in all parts with parties anxious to hear the trial of the two highwaymen charged with the murder of Wyatt, when attempting to apprehend them on a charge of highway robbery. On the Learned Judge taking his seat the pri soners were placed at the bar. Their names are William Bates, aged 10, described in the calender as a joiner, and without education ; and John Walmsley, alias IPlawdsley, aged 21, also a joiner, and of superior education. Both are Irishmen. They were arraigned on an indictment charging Bates with the wilful murder of William Wyatt, at Adlington, in the parish of Presburg, on the 11th of February last, and Mawdsley as accessory before the fact. Both pleaded not guilty. A second indictment charged Mawdsley as principal, and Bates as acces sary, for shooting and wounding Thomas Wyatt, with intent to murder him ; and a third charged him with robbing James Ernill, at Adlington, being armed. The two latter charges were not proceeded with. Evidence having been received, The Learned JUDGE summed up the case at very great length. He went over the whole of the evi dence, explaining the law as applicable to it to the jury, and concluded by stating that unless the jury felt some real and substantial doubt in the case it was their duty, however painful, to find the prisoners guilty. would not satisfy him, for although he approved 0, meeting being ca ll e d , he disiented altogether from ti resolutions. H e th oug h t - it was very desirable th gentlemen of all parties should occasionally Inel t He liked th e f r i c ti on o f opposite (minions, but he 'e convinced that the statements in the resolutions WI calculated to prejudice gentlemen who would be their trial in a few days in Dublin. He meant Smith O'Brien, Mr. Meagh e r, son o f an Hon. MeltltN of the House, and Mr. Mitchell. He held that an c resolutions, affecting as they must the cases of tho gentlemen, were unfair and unconstitutional. W hl would be the effect before a jury of a declaratio signed by so important a body as that which he ha the honour of addressing, declaring that those g en tlemen had been engaged in levying war against ,b ' Queen. He suggested as an alteration the oinissie l of that paragraph. Mr. GEORGE HAMILTON, M.P. rose to order. 11 said it was quite manifest that the Hon. Gentlenla! was then discu ss i ng t h e resolutions. He wou ld as' the Noble Chairman if that meeting was called argue upon th- question contained in the resolutions r or merely to ad o pt an d s i gn them ? If the latter' then the Hon. Member was clearly out of order' (Loud cries of " Sign, sign.") A desultory conversation, in which Mr. Grow n ' Colonel Dunn e , M r . Sh a f to Ada i r, and Mr. F. E r e° joined, took place. Lord DOWNSIIIRE decided that the meeting g c l / 1 5 , called to adopt and s i gn t h e resolutions, upon WlllO, upwards of a hu n d re d s i gnatures were in a few Tao Inents attached. He did not un d erstand there " any dissentient but Mr. Reynolds. Thanks were then voted to the Noble Chairman' and the meeting separated. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS' MANCHESTER, APRIL 8.
