CHARGE OF BIGAMY AGAINST LOLA MONTES. This being the day appointed for the re-examination °I this extraordinary lady, a large number of persons We re - congregated during the whole of the business hours of the court. Two o'clock having arrived, the hour appointed for the further hearing of the charge, Mr. Clarkson and Mr. W eald's solicitor entered the court. After the lapse of si.sme time, the accused not ap- Fearing, Mr. Clarkson said he was there to advance the evidence against Mrs. James, the Countess of Laos reldt, Lola Montes, Mrs. Heald, orwhatever s he mi ght be called. He was in a condition to , B , ll °Y , that Mr. James was alive in India six days before the date of the last examination. As the accused did 11 °t app:ar, he applied to have the recognizances estreated, though he should not oppose a further ad journment if it were asked for. _ _ The MAGISTRATE (Mr. Hardwick) inquired if any one appeared on tlalf of the accused to make any ap plication for adjournment. Gentleman rose and said he was Mr. Heald's soli citor; he was not instructed to act for Mrs. Heald, but Mrs. Heald only arrived in town from Naples ou Fr iday, and had travelled night and day in order to be here in time. 'ir. Clarkson said he was unwilling to press - ! 1.8111 Y against the accused, who might perhaps dislike to appear, in consequence of the r °ti in the vicinity of the Court, but be felt in the absence of any explanation, that the step he Proposed should be adopted. If the recoguizinces were entreated, and the accused appeared on a future day— Wednesday for instance, he should not press the adoption of that course. After much conversation the further hearing of the 4 se was adjourned until Wednesday, et two o'clock. IE ATTEMPTED BURGLARY IN OXFORD STREET. — Jelin Veal, alias Beale, a notorious burglar, who re beenap from Middlesex Ho:Thal, where he had confined in consequence of a serious accident which 4 0 sustained when attempting to escape from the police, Was brought before Mr. Hardwick for final examination, charged with having attempted to commit a burglary at the, residence of Mr. Rabies, furrier, 332, Oxford-street. Frances Bishop deposed that she was housemaid in ,the service of the prosecutor. On the morning of Sun day, the 19th of August, about half past one o'clock, she Was in bed asleep, when she was awoke by hearing a noise o uts id e her bed-room windew. She listened and beard a square of glass break. She then got out of bed, 1 , 11 1 4 saw two men standin outside the window, one of „noel she recognised to A be the prisoner. She imme diately ran upstairs and informed her master, and when th ey came back the men had disappeared. The police Were lent for, and on searching the premises one of the men was f oun d lying dead in the yard, having fallen fr om the top o f a high wall. The prisuner at the bar Was bro ug h t to t h e h ouse a short time aft_r by a man Who had seen the prisoner drop from a house in Little A - ' r gYle-street. Mr. Roh t t residicg at No. 93, Grove-, er a o „'_umen-town, s, said he r was passing the house of the proreet t'cuter, about two o'clock on the morning of the 19th of August,' - telt when he was informed that some men had at - Pted to effect an entrance into the prosecutor's premises, a h u ut on being disturbed had made their escape. At the A gßeetion of Mr. Rabies he ran round into Little i„rgYle-street, where he saw the prisoner, who bad 4 t i4 l 4t dropped from the window of No. 2 in that street, in la med act risirg from the pavement. He appeared le e, and witness collared him, and took him back to who gave him in charge to the police. s h .tt arY Cash, No. 2, Little Argyle-street, proved that e was awoke about half•past ore: on the morning of the 19 th ult., by hearing some glass break. She got up, ou looking out of the window she saw two or three per sons standing near the door. She subsequently , hound the screwdriver now prcduced lying on the win . w - ledge, on which do wcre the marks ut a man's band, win and liorn which win ow the prix oner, no doubt, dropped into, the street. lo speetor,Lester, A division deposed, that on the morn ing of the 19th of August, he was on duty at the Vine street Police-stollen, and received charge of the pri soner, who complained ' of his foot being very bad. He exa minedfound • it, and it much swollen. He sent for a s urgeon w h o recommen d e d hi s remova l t o th e hospital, I Wnich wa s d one , an d a consta bl e was pl ace d to watch 'lto• Witness subsequently examined the window of Mr. Rabies' house, and found the top of a;smsll eonser 'gory removed. On the window frame of the back drawing -room were some marks which appeared to be made by the screwdriver produced. He examined the hick premises at d a yli g ht, fro m Mr. R a bi es ' h ouse t o 4 N • 2, Little Argyle-street, and found that a person could walk along the leads from the former house to the second -Hoot staircase window of the latter, by which they could easily gain access. Palmer, 214 D, saw the prioner come out of M r. Rabies' house in custody of another con table. The prisoner called out "Is there any of Barry Veal's friends here." He then took a box of matches from his pocket, and threw them on the pave- Z e nt• Witness picked them up and follo wed him to e station, an d ga v e them into the hands of the inspec tor on duty. C Marks, 320 A, sa id on Sunday fortnight, about twelve . l oak at night, he was on duty in one of the wards t , ore the prisoner was confined, when, from the heat of wards, he was suddenly attacked with illness, which rendered him for a time insensible. When he recovered his senses he discovered that the prisoner had escaped. SeWhall, C division, said, from information Sehad previously received, he went, in company with I r had gea nt G ray, to N o . 4, Corbett's-place, Brick-lane. effected an entrance by the back premises , and in o n e of the of ' to „ e rooms found the prisoner playing cards with one „ his companions. They immediately t ook him into - tlstody. HARDwica said it was fortunate for the prisoner ' 4 st he had been disturbed when in the act of attempting fp burglary. If he had efficted an entrance into Mr. L ' 4l lles' premises it would have, been his duty to send th erefore before a jury to be tried for the felony. He should ' s 'refore commit him to the House of Correction for •er g , months. SPORTIN G IN TELLIGENCE. LATEST BETTING AT THE WEST-END. ST.

DONCASTER, SATURDAY MORNING. Up to the present time the town presents its ordinary state of quietude, and were it not for the accustomed Preparations manifested previously to the annual gather 'rig, we should have few tokens to tell us that Doncaster races were so near at hand. Railways and vans have made sad work with the bustle and excitement at one time exhibited for several weeks previously to our meet ing, Everything which can promote the convenience a nd provide for the safety of the visitor s has been adopted by the authorities. The race - cours e is in beau tiful condition. The facilities of the railways will in sure a large influx of passengers from all parts; it is re- Ported that as it seems almost certain the South York- S hire, Railway will not be ready for o p enin g , the Man ester, Sheffield, an d Lincolnshire Railway , in conjunc tion with the Great Northern, propose bringing the b Pass engers from Sheffield and the neighbourhood, via i , 4- 'etforcl, The trains on the Great Northern Railway ,`' s ep most excellent time, and we believe that their ar rangements for the ensuing week will insure equal punc -114143% The sales of blood stock will, as usual, take p la ce in front of the Salutation Inn; they excite great Interest from the fact that the whole of Colonel Anson's St ud t is to be brought under Messrs.

EPSOM AUTUMN MEETING. • To prevent Mistakes it is necessary to apprise owners of horses that the. plate and o:her entries must be made on Saturday next, and not on the day before the races, as many parties suppose. The sum added to the varicus prizes amounts to 5001., and the present engagements are quite sufficient to insure a capital day's sport. WESTERN MEETING AT AYR.—(CoNcLuDED.)

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Silt,— " It is the deep and mystic hour, When nature sinks into repose, And Silence, from her hidden bower, O'er the husli'd world her mantle throws. It is the deep, the mystic time, When Cynthia to her throne doth climb." In plain prose, it is the hour of midnight, that finds me " weaving cut the threads of fate," and committing to paper a portion of the varied memoranda recorded within the "book and volume " of my sporting brain, for the par ticular behoof of the racing community, who I hope may profit by this " dip into the mysteries of the future," which I shall at once proceed with. The Warwick Meeting has passed away without throwing a solitary ray of light ou the struggle of Wed nesday; not so with regard to the Cesarewitcb, Cam bridgeshire, and Great Yorkshire Handicap, for which stakes several nags have been introduced to public notice and made prominent favourites, Glenalvon, Midia, Ribaldry, and Thringarth to wit. My anticipations of the Warwick races were all but right in every instance, having selected Docility for the foal, Jack Briggs, for the Castle Park, and Gleuca for the Great Warwickshire Stakes ; but for the Leaming ton Stakes, although I named Fernhill, Miss Ann, and Wanota, as the lot from which the winner would spring, yet I gave the pass to a non-starter (Wanota) for these stakes, as well as for the Warwick Cup, understanding, in both instances, that I should have a start if not a win. For the Cup, after giving Essedsrius (who did not run) the foremost position,:l placed " the Grey," and Glenal von second and third. The Doncaster Meeting commences to-morrow with the Fitzvvilliam Stakes, to close and name this evening. The Champagne Stakes will have William: the Con queror and the Italian first and second; the Cleveland Handicap, Confederacy and The Iron Duke; and the 100 sova. Stakes will be a canter for Canezou. Wednesday, the Sellinger day, has five races for its portion, only two of which require comment—the Municipal and Great St. Leger Stakes; the former will probably be contested by The Knight of Avenel, Gleam, Lollypop filly, and Canada colt, Mr. Green and Lord Glasgow running first:and second. For the St Leger Stakes the following will run:— Saucy Dick, the Fyincr Dutchman, Nannykirk, Old Dan Tucker, Volcano, 'Herbert, Vatican, Loup-garou, Elthiron, Honeycomb, Uriel, Westow, or Lady Superior; and perhaps, but very doubtful, Glenalvou, Chatterer, Knarsdale, or Thringarth, may at the last moment go to the post. What I said of the Dutchman in my last note, I still adhere to; that his performances have been good, no one can deny, but that they are first-rate I do deny. What has he ever done to warrant to laying 2tol on him ? With the exception of the Derby, which was a blunder, as time will prove, he has never beaten a first-rate race-horse in his life; on these grounds I still entertain the shadow of a doubt, as to whether he will prove a second Surplice, and carry off the two great stakes of the North and South, or, Cossack-like, fail in the attempt. Thringarth, Knais dale, Glenalvon, and Westow, possess not the ghost of a chance, and Lady Superior, Vatican, Elthiron, Loup garou, Honeycomb, and Herbert, but little, of carrying off the St. Leger Stakes. Old Dan Tucker and Nunny kirk will stay the distance, so will Uriel and Volcano. It is far from impossible but what one of this four may win. Last on the list, though by no means the least, stands Saucy Dick, the brother of Springy Jack, who on this occasion may spring from that oblivion in which for a long time he has been lest to public notice ; his breed (by Hetman Platoff out of Oblivion) is of that quality which secures speed, strength, and staying powers; this horse is my forlorn hope—and "Hit or miss, Our project's life this shape of sense assumes." SAUCY DICK (Nat) 1 or THE FLYING DUTCHMAN (Marlow) NUNNYKIBK (Marson) 2 OLD DAN TUCKER (Templeman or Day) 3 URIEL .. On Thursday The Flying Dutchman will secure the Foal; and Witchcraft:orFrench Susy the 10 soya. Stakes; Colonel Anson cannot complain of the weight at which his Oddity is handicapped for another 10 sovs. Stake; neither can Mr. Fox grumble at the 7st. 11b. placed on Paslmsinger'a back for the Great Yorkshire Handicap, although opposed by Letitia, 4st. 121 b. ; Mrs. Taft, fist. 8!b; and Thringarth, sst. 121 b. Friday's races stay be summed up in a few words : Old Dan or Honeycomb wins the 200 sovs., L9dy Evelyn the Park 11111, Belus the North of England Pro duce, Uriel or Strongbow the Gascoigne, and the Epirus colt the Two:yra old Stakes. The Doncaster Cup, I think, will fall to the lot of Lord Stanley with Canezon. The Newmarket First October Meeting next claims my attention. The Grand Duke Michael Stakes will be vion by Honeycomb or Vatican, former for choice. The Hopeful Stakes by Cariboo or Penang. Colonel Peel and the Duke of Richmond, as last year, will run first and second for the Two years old Triennial Stakes. Colonel Peel, with Tadmor, will win the Three years old Triennial Stakes. The Dukes of Rutland and Richmond, between them, will appropriate to their own particular purposes the Rutland Stakes. i no te. force next year, b e i ng pretty Scott's eat My comments on the Cesarewit c h an d C am b r idgeshire Stakes nnt s :stable nmy i next s certain, if all goes right, of winning the C o l umn St a k es with the Epirus colt, Tomboy and Cariboo being his only opponents of any note. The stable will also have in Pits ford and the Epirus colt a couple of rattling favourites for the 2,000 Guineas, for which stake, however, I prefer Hardinge land Bee Hunter. The 1,000 Guinea Stakes may possiblylallto the lot of Sir J. Hawley, with Tingle. For the Derby of 1850, The Italian, William the Con queror, Hardinge, Compass, Sweetheart, Pitsford, and Windhound, have:the largest share of attraction for me ; Hardinge and The Conqueror for choice. For the Derby of 1851, Pantalonade colt, Newminster, Lamartine, Whim colt, Storm, Croupier, and Bonnie Dundee. are likely youngsters. For the Derby of 1852, the following foals of the present year will in all probability be entered:—A large lengthy colt by Birdcatcber, out of Beeswing; a strong colt by Lanercost, out of Alice Hawthorn; a colt by Birdeatcher, out of Blue Bonnet; a superior colt by Faugh-a-ballagh, out of Sister to Sir Ralph; and a re markably promising colt, called Peppermint, foaled on the Ist April, by Sweetmeat, out of Pantalonade.

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 10, 1849. CRICKET. ALL ENGLAND v. MANCHESTER. 13 75 The proceedings terminated with a vete of thanks :o the Chairman. COCKERMOUTH AND WORKINGTON. A special meeting of this company was held on Wednesday at Cockermouth ; Mr. J. W. Fletcher in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said the secretary would read the resolutions they had to sul2mit to the meeting. Mr. JACOB read the resolutions, which were to the effect that it was expedient to raise 25,0001. by the issue of 3,7G1 preference shares of 61. 13s. 4d. each, with a guarantee of five per cent., the said shares to be offered, in the first instance, to the holders of the original shares, and, if declined, to those who might be induced to take them up ; and authorizing the di rectors to borrow 8,3001, on the best terms it could be obtained. The CP.%IRMAN said that some of the shareholders were of opinion that the money might be got for less than five per cent., hut on the whole the directors thought it better to offer five per cent. The money was wanted for the pursose of releasing the directors from their personal liabilides, entered into on behalf' of the company. The Rev. S. SllERWEN'expressed his dissatisfaction at the conduct of the directors, and the prospects of the company. They proposed making a branch to Bridgefoot for the private convenience of a certain coal proprietor, the chairman of the company. For his part he would never sanction such an objectionable measure. A SHAREHOLDER remarked, that as they were bor rowing money at 4 per cent., he thought they ought not to guarantee more than 41 per cent. Mr. STEEL said the directors of the Whitehaven Railway had guaranteed 6 per cent. The resolutions were then adopted. Mr. S. SHERWEN and other shareholders made strong objections to the construction of the branch to the Chairman's collieries at the expense of the com pany. They said if he wanted a branch to his colliery the least he could do vt as to make it at his own ex pense. The Camamax said it could be made for 2,5001., but declined pledging himself to make it for that sum. Mr. SHERWEN reminded the chairman that the original estimate for constructing the main line was 80,0001., and for the dividend 8 per cent. per annum, and said that no confience could be placed in their estimates. The CHAIRMAN said he felt satisfied that the Bridgefoot branch would be worth 10 per cent. to the main line. Mr. MORDY thought the branch line ought not to be proceeded with, unless they had the written con sent of the majority of the shareholders. The CHAIRMAN said that course was unusual, and therefore he would not pledge himself to adopt it. Mr. HARRIS said there was no occasion to consult the shiseholders further than calling a meeting. After a sharp and personal discussion on the sub ject, the meeting separated. CALEDONIAN.—To-day this company open their Clydesdale junction line for traffic, connecting it by the existing railways with Ayreshire and Greenock, and giving them a terminus on the south side of the Clyde. The line runs from Hamilton to Glasgow, and accommodates Rutherglen, Blantyre, and other places. EAST LANCASHIRE.-1,000 men are employed with a view to the completion of this company's line into Preston. NAMUR AND LIEGE.—On Saturday the Chairman of this company, Mr. Andrew Spottiswoode, issued a reply to the proprietors, who, at the last half-yearly meeting, in July, passed a resolution requesting him to retire from the direction. The Chairman, in his reply, declines to do this, considering it would be a violation of the trust reposed in him by the Belgian Goverhment. He states that the terms on which the larger portion of the loan of 500,0001. has been con tracted for en behalf of the company are ruinous to the shareholders; that the directors, as yet have only obtained 238,2451.; and that for 207,9771. of the sum they have given debentures to the amount of 324,5201., being a premium of 116,5431., or upwards of 50 per cent. This, besides the loss of capital, increases the interest on the money borrowed to 8 per cent. per annum, and the result, supposing the debentures fill due at the end of five years, will be, that for the accommothtion of 326,4071., at 8 per cent., the com pany will have to pay a bonus of 179,5931. WAKEFIELD, PONTEFRACT, AND GOOLE.—The Methley branch of the above line was not opened on Monday last, as it was announced it would be, in consequence of some misunderstanding between the Midland Company and the directors of the other line. ADMISSION TO A CATHOLIC CON VENT. On Saturday two young ladies went through the ceremony of what is termed " taking the veil," or entering upon their noviciate, previously to being professed as nuns, at the new convent of the Good Shepherd, the second Catholic institution of the kind in Hammersmith. One of the ladies, says a corre spondent, " whose name did not transpire, is from Guernsey, and entered as a lay-sister. The other, Miss Ryder, is highly connected, and as we were informed, is a convert to the Catholic faith. Amongst the friends who attended to witness her separation from the world, were the lion. Mrs. S. Murray, the Hon. Miss Frazer, and the Honourable Miss Methuen. Her brother and sisters were also present. Being assembled at one side of the chapel, adjoining the convent, and the nuns, about twelve in number, being ranged at the other both facing the altar, the young ladies proceeded to turn to the threshold of the sanc tuary, where prie dieu were prepared for them, and, kneeling down, a hymn was chaunted by a choir of girls from the cloisters to the Virgin Mary, whose nativity the Catholic Church that day celebrated. The Right Rev. Dr. Wiseman (assisted by the Rev. Mr. Phillips, chaplain to the convent, the Rev. Mr. Searle, and the Rev. Mr. Guidez) then said a low mass, at which the two noviciates and the entire community received the sacrament, and afterwards, assuming his episcopal insignia, delivered a lengthened exhortation to them on the necessity of walking in the footsteps of the blessed Virgin, who, though the chosen of God, had to bear a life of trials and anxieties ending in fearful anguish. But such was the love 5h. , 3 bore her son, that she would rather have suffered thus with him than have led a life of ease and happiness without him. So with them, whatever offices or duties they might have to discharge, what ever trials they might encounter by their own frailty, they must recollect that they were but the humble handmaids of God, who would sometimes perhaps withdraw from them even that very consolation they felt in loving him and receiving him within their breasts in order that they might love him for His sake alone, and look to no earthly reward for doing so. They would nct have such scenes of sorrow and desolation to weep over as His blessed mother; but they must not at the same time expect to lead a life of unruffled tranquillity. They would have to carry out the commands of God in a manner wholly op posed to self-love and the weakness of our nature, and to yield that obedience to authority which formed the very essence of the life of the religious state. The Reverend Prelate's discourse (of which this is merely the spirit) was followed by prayers special to the occasion and the blessing of the robes, &c. The ladies then withdrew to cait aside their worldly attire—Miss Ryder being dressed as a bride, with a rich lace veil suspended from her head (the lay sisters plainly), and returned in the garb of the order of the Good Shepherd, when they were in vested by the Bishop with the veil, as an emblem of modesty and purity, and to conceal them from the eyes of the world. They also received from his hands a rosary to remind them "that they were con secrated to the Blessed Virgin." More prayers being said and hymns sung, they liisscd each of their " Sisters in Christ," and after bowing before the alt.; left the sacred edifice. We lament to have to announce the death of Mr.. Cash, of cholera. He died at Hastings on Wednesday evening, and is the second of the Brighton directors swept off' by the prevailing fatal epidemic. Mr. Cash was the chairman of the late Eastern Counties Court of Inquiry. RYDROPRoBIA AT ARDSLEY.—In our last we (Leeds Mercury) gave exclusively the particulars of two distressing cases of hydrophobia at the village of Ardsley, where two promising young men had been sacrificed to the horrible madness occasioned by the bite of a dog in a rabid state. We are now enabled to furnish our readers with the particulars of the inquest held upon the body of one of them, Frederick Arundale. The evidence adduced was that of William Arundale, who deposed that he was the father of the deceased, who was eighteen years old. That ten weeks ago he was bitten by a dog on the upper part of the left arm, and on the fore finger of the right hand. The dog afterwards bit two others before it was destroyed, and one of the par ties had died mad a fortnight ago from the effects. His son did not begin to complain until the previous Monday ; before which time ho had been quite well, the wounds having healed. His son was first seen by two doctors on the Tuesday, who tcld him they were afraid there was something coming on from the bite—they wished him to let Mr. Water ton try his remedy of the Wourali poison, should his son be worse. Mr. Waterton bad offered to send to London for a doctor, at his own expense, to try it, if witness and his friends were willing. His son was not agreeable at that time; he got worse, and on Wednesday Mr. Slatter saw him, but be died on the day following Sarah Arundale, the mother of deceased, stated that she went with him several times to a person named Dixon, a farrier at Wakefield, who told her he could cure him, and he gave him a red p owder to take in some water and beer, and dressed his wounds until they were healed. Hi r son was so bad. en the day of his death that it took from four to six men to hold him n in bed. Verdict— Deceas ed died from Hydrophobia. I'LYMOUTH, SEPT.. - &ad.

SICKNESS IN THE TOWER.—The battalion of tke Guards which marched into the Tower from Chichester on the Ist instant, was in a perfect state of health on its arrival, but soon afterwards experienced the dele terious effects of the water used in the Tower. One man died on Tuesday, in a few hours, of the cholera, and seventeen were on the same day taken Into hos pital with diseased bowels. The pernicious water, it seems, does not proceed from any water company, but is supplied from the Thames by means of forced pipes, which carry many impurities into the tanks. In consequence of the cholera having appeared in the detachment of the 11th Hussars, stationed at Kensington, the troops were removed on Wednes day, by sudden order, and joined the Head-quarters at Hounslow. The Household Brigade of Cavalry is performing the dispatch duty until further orders. Mr. Reid, formerly of the Life Guards, and keeper of the Cavalry Canteen at the Horse Guards, was taken suddenly ill yesterday morning (Friday), at four o'clock, of cholera, and died the same day at one o'clock. THE ALLEGED MURDER OF A GAMEKEEPER AT HAMILTON.—The person suspected of having murdered the gamekeeper Kirby, near Hamilton, on Wed nesday night, was apprehended on Thursday morning. Ho was immediately conveyed to the Calton Police.effice, where he at orce confessed that he had been the cause of the unfortunate game keeper's death; but alleged that it was purely the result of accident. He stated that ho had been chal lenged by the deceased with poaching on the Duke of Hamilton's grounds, who, after considerable altercation, set the dogs with which he was accompanied on him, by whom ho was torn to the ground, and in the course of the scuffio his gun accidentally went off, and its contents were lodged in the deceased's body, killing him on the spot. He was immediately conveyed by Thomson in a cab to Hamilton, where he would be examined by the Sheriff in the course of the day. In reference to the prisoner's explanation of the occurrence, e learn that a fact has come out in the course of the examination of the body of deceased, with which it can be with difficulty reconciled. It has been found that instead of the balls having penetrated lie heart in a vertical direction, as wouTehave been likely the case if the gun had gone off accidentally in the course of a set:fl, they have pissed straight through, thereby leading to the supposition that the deed must have been the result of design rather than of accident.—florth British Mail. ATTEMPTED MURDER OF THREE CHILDREN.-- A female named Lab;. - .lla Stevenson was taken before the magiitrates of Fenton, Staffordshire, on Friday, on a charge of attempting to murder her three children, of the respective ages of seventeen months, three years, and five years. The prisoner seemed exceedingly dejected. From the evidence adduced, it appears that the prisoner, who is the wife of a crotemaker living in the town, on the pre\ ions day took the three children out for a walk, and after leading them about for some time, she made for a place termed Smith's Pool (a large pond), a short distance from her own house. She then threw the youngest child head foremost into the pool, and after ards laid hold of another one for the purpose of throw ing it in, when its screams attracted the attention of Mr. Superintendent Perry, of the inland navigation, who hastened to the spot, and, at the risk of his own life, jumped into the pool, and succeeded in recovering the drowning child, who was in a very exhausted state, and preventing the destruction of the other two children. The woman was taken into custody, and the child taken cut of the water was attended by a medical gentleman, who succeeded in restoring suspended animation. The mother, when placed befiira Mr. Rose, the magistrate, exhibited urnistakeabl.3 evidence of her mind being in a disordered state. She was sent to a lunatic asylum. THE SWELL MOB AND THE DETECTIVES AT BOULOGNE.—A gentleman applied to the Lord Mayor at the Mansion ihaLe on Saturday, for his advice relative to the notorious Joseph Wood, the cab and omnibus proprietor, now in custody at Boulogne, for stealing a gold watch from a lady on board the steam-boat which had just reached Boulogne harbour from Folkestone, and on board of which was Field, of the Detective Force, who went thither in search of the Mannings. Since this, his (Wood's) mother had proceeded to Boulogne, taking with her considerable property, the supposed proceeds of various depredations, and it would seem was in a fair way of procuring the hbsration of her run, having ne gotiated vri!h, and agreed to pay to the husband of the lady from whom the watch was stolen no less a sum than 4001. nut to appear against him. As the appli cart had himself suffered by Wood, and was fearful he might be again let loose to plunder the public, he begged his Lordship would interfere. The Lord Mayor could rot interfere, but suggested an application to the French consul, who might probably be able to effect the desired oject. DREADFUL CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—About four, o'clock on Friday afternoon a most horrible Fuse of manslaughter occurred in Barlow-street, A r' rduott 40, blacksmith, named Thomas Richardson, sigoeidnawith hot having been stabbed twice through_ the groin irons, so as to cause his death almost a Un receiving the information, ah who, on policemanaiinkhaste,e to the spot, when he . met John Le 'm the e man that has done it," seeing him, cried out, and at once surrendered himself into custody.

He repeated his visits, ho wever , aga i n, and was still worse intoxicated.

NORWOOD, SURREY, although only six miles from town, continues, through the merciful Providence of the Divine Ruler over all, to be entirely exempt from the present Dreadful Scourge ; and the influx of persons from London now taking houses and apartments in that beautiful and healthy locality, exceeds anything ever before known by the oldest inhabitant.

The promotion of Jerome Bonaparte, the oldest general officer in the army, to the dignity of Marshal of France, is considered highly probable. The President of the Republic drove along the Boulevards on Sunday morning, exactly at a quarter to nine o'clock, accompanied by the Minister of Public Works aed his orderly officers, and attended by a troop of Cuirassiers, on his way to the Paris and Lyons Railroad station. He proceeds to inaugurate the section at Sens. He was received, as he passed along the Boulevards, with the greatest respect, the people of every clale taking off their hats and salut ing him. Great preparations were made to receive him, and the town of Sens will entertain him at a banquet to which 150 persons have been invited. The Moniteur, in a communicated article, declares that it is false that the propositions of the French Gov( rtunent have been rej.'cted at the conference of Gaeta, as some journals had stated. The Conditutionnel publishes a dispatch addressed by Count Nesselrode to the Russian Minister at Paris, as well as to all other Russian Ministers abroad, an nouncing that as the task of the Russian troops is concluded by the pacification of Hungary, they will be withdrawn from that territory and re-enter the Russian frontiers. The Archbishop of Toulouse has publishei the following letter in the Anti de la Religion, censuring severely M. Duguerry, cure of the Madeleine, for the part he took in the proceedings of the Peace Congress, and fur the expressions he made use of in his speech, namely, that the Gospel was nothing more than human reason restored and extended : " Toulouse, Sept. 2. " Sir,—Tbe proceeding s in the Peace Congress at Paris, and the part acted on the occasion by members of the clergy, have deeply t , filicted we. I believe my colleagues in: the episcup ae y, must have experienceda eiroilar feeling. Bat are we to con tine ourselves to deploring that participation, and can we allow what was done and said there to pats Gr.T, without eny protest ? Can we, for instance, hslp censuring the assertion put forward by one of the first parish priests of the capital, 6 that the Gospel is only human reason restored and extended?' What is then to become of. positive revealed facts? I appeal against such an assertion to all enlightened clergymen, to the whole episcopacy, and, in particuler, to the Supreme Chief of the Catholic Church, the suc cessor of him to whom Jesus Christ said,—"Et to aliquando conversus confiima fratres tuos." I re quest you, Sir, to insert this letter in the next number of the Anti de la Religion. I can have no rest until the publication of my protest; and it is in y our j ourna l it should naturally appear." HUN GARY. The late rumours of M. Kossuth having made his escape to Constantinopie are confirmed by the last German papers, which, however, do not give any particulars of the date and manner o f his flight.' From the news contained in the German papers, it appears that the garrison of Comorn are resolved to hold the fortress against the Austrian armies. That garrison amounts to 20,000 men, and further l ev i es are still being pressed from the neighbouring districts. The fortress is victualled for many months. BAVARIA. It is expected that the Bavarian Chambers will be opened by the King in person. Mest of the Deputies are already assembled at Blunich, although the day of meeting is not yet fixed. Tranquillity is so complete in this capital that the garrison has been reduced from 8,000 men to 5,000. RUSSIA. The Warsaw papers contain the following address of the Emperor of Russia to the army : " My children!—God has vouchsafed to bless your zeal, your manly bravery, and your untiring perse verance amidst the greatest . difficulties. My children, you did your duty; and 10, the insurrection is quelled. Wherever the enemy dared to oppose you, you over came them, and following at the heels of the fugitives, you brought about an event of rare occurence, viz., the enemy's whole army surrendered to you, and sub mitted, unconditionally, to our will. Within two months e have either captured or taken by surr en d er 150 standards and 400 pieces of artillery, while above 80,000 insurgents have laid down their arms. Honour and glory to you! Honour and glory to your victorious leader! You have again, as you always do, proved yourselves worthy of the name of the victorious army of all the Russias. My thanks to you all and each of you. lam satisfied with you! lam proud of you! " NICOLAUS. " Warsaw, August 22." RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LANCASTER AND PRESTON. The annual meeting of this company was held at Lancaster on Thursday, Mr. Bushell in the chair. The secretary read the report, which stated that the differences with the canal company with reference to the lease were terminated. The main portion of the rent had been paid, and by the arrangement with the Lancaster and Carlisle Company the fair value of their property was secured. The balance from revenue applicable to dividends amounted to 19,619/. The chairman of this company had taken his seat at the board of the Lancaster and Carlisle Company. The directors recommended the reduction previous to May next of the annuity of 4,8751., secured to the canal company. The capital account showed that 465,3311. had been expended on the undertaking. The revenue account to the Ist of August showed that 20,029/. had been received, and 4101. expended, leav ing a balance of 19,6191. The CHAIRMAN said, on referring to the revenue account, they would find that there was an actual balance to their credit of 19,619/. 3s. This was the balance of revenue received ; but it appeared, on the other hand, that a final settlement had not been made with the canal company (the late lessees of the line). Some demands had been made upon them by the canal company, and some time would elapse before these demands could be adjusted. The di rectors had thought it advisable in the present in stance to recommend a dividend of 355. sd. on the whole shares, 235. 6d. on the three-quarter shares, and 9s. 4d. on the quarter shares. He believed these figures constituted, as near as practicable, the proportion of their last dividend, and would, perhaps, give them a dividend at the same rate for the one sear and two months. With regard to the capital account, they would find it was in debt. 1491. 7s. Id., which had been paid out of the revenue account, and would have to be reimbursed out of the sale of the com pany's working stock, and then added to that account. With regard to the reduction of the annuity to the canal company, it was desirable this should be done while it could be effected on reasonable terms. Up to the month of May next the affair might be ar ranged for 5,0001. less than after that time. He should therefore advise the raising of the necessary amount for the reduction of that annuity.—(Hear.) He concluded with moving that the report be received and adopted. Mr. HADDEN seconded the motion. Dr. COWAN believed the miscellaneous property the canal company received from them in 1842 was valued at 40,0001., and that it was agreed that at the end of the lease it should be revalued and the differ ence made good, on whichever side it might be. He was anxious to call the attention of the directors to this point. The CHAIRMAN said the directors were quite cog nizant of the facts, and would not lose sight of them. Dr. COWAN then adverted to the capital account, and gave it as his opinion that it ought to be closed at once, and that the 1,300 Carlisle shares sold by the directors should have been added to the capital account. A sum of 47,0001. or 48,0001. would have to be raised to pay off the debt to the canal company.: Now, the best and easiest way of doing this, in his opinion, would be to call up 61. a share on the three quarter shares, and 2/. a share on the whole shares. There would be a legal difficulty, he understood, in the way, but this might be got over by going to Parliament before May. The CHAIRMAN entered into explanations to show that the difficulty of closing the capital account was owing to the disputed titles to some land purchased and the p ar ti es se lli ng it for the company's use , having since deceased. He would not pledge himself te, the shareholders thatthe capital account should not exceed 467,000/., but from what he knew of the out standing accounts he did not think that sum would be exceeded. As to calling up 61 . on the three-quar-, ter shares, and 2/. on the whole shares, Dr. Conan was right in saying there would be a legal difficulty, and one which he (the chairm an) was not certain could be got over by Act of Parliament. He did not think Parliament would allow them to call 6/. on shares which were created for the payment of 30,000/. out of the 150,0001. authorised to be borrowed by the company under their original Acts. After some further conversation of no moment, the report wai put in the usual form and carried by ac- clamation. - Mr. MAXSTED then moved that a dividend, in the ratio suggested by the directors, be declared, and the motion was seconded and passed unanimously. The C HAIRMAN proposed that Mr. James White side, banker, and Mr. AV. E. Moss, be appointed au ditors, at a salary of 51. a year each. Mr. Moons seconded the motion.—Carried by acclamation. Mr. WILLAN next moved a resolution for remune rating the directors. Eventually the sum of 200 guineas was agreed to he placed at the disposal of the hoard. — Mr. Hodgson, M.P. for Carlisle, was unanimously appointed a director in the place of Mr. Coniston. On the motion of Mr. HoDGsoN, 4001. was voted to Mr. Bushell, the chairman, and Mr. W.

The Alirror this month opens with a terrific on slaught on the " House of Malignants," by which this saucy writer means the noble and learned and gallant Lords and the exceedingly pious and charitable Bishops, who congregate at Westminster to keep Jews out of Parliament and to defend their own privileges. Our writer is no great admirer of privilege. According to him— " Privilege means injustice. It degrades one class in order to load with honours another which can already scarcely stand beneath its titles and its dignities; it robs the poor to enrich the wealthy ; it takes the food from the hungry to fatten the pampered; it even deprives the industrious of their labour that the idle may live in ram pant luxury and pride; it denies clothing to the naked that the obese forms of the Peer and his minions may bo swaddled in purple and fine linen, while it drags down the miserab'e wretch deeper and still deeper in the mire of misery, and poverty, and degradation, that the puffed up Peer, the stalking Bishop, the fruitless branches of Royalty, with all the cloud of satellites that hangs about them, may be carried to a still higher eminence of dignity and wealth. Yet we, the first nation in the world—the wisest, the most honourable, the most civilized, the most charitable, and the most generous, still continue to foster with tenderness and respect this spawn of iniquity, to lick the feet that sl.urn us, to quaff with pride and plea • sure the poison that is destroying us." Mr. Percy St. John continues his "Adventures of a French Republican," and in the present instalment gives us a most stirring description of the erection of the barricades of St. Mery in At that time the Carlists aided the Republicans in their outbreak, not from love of liberty, but from hatred of Louis Philippe, and many a smart carriage from the Faubourg St. Germain might have been seen forming the foundation of a barricade in the Rue St. Martin. King James I. is the subject of the royal biographical sketch, and the excellent " History of Music" is continued. THE BRITISH POLITICAL, COMMER CIAL, .ECCLESIASTICAL, and HISTORI CAL GAZETTEER, Travelling Road Book, and County Atlas. We are much gratified to observe the steady pro gression of this highly valuable and useful publica tion. We have just received Part V., being the second of the large 2s. 6d. numbers. It contains beautifully executed mops of Shropshire, Nottinghamshire, and Cambridgeshire, besides being embellished with an exquisite engraving of " Ivy Bridge," a most picturesque viaduct on the South Devon Railway'. The present part contains interesting historical re cords of Boscobel, Salop, where Charles the Second retreated after his defeat by Cromwell at the battle of Worcester, and where the Royal Oak was long exhibited to the curious visitor which gave effectual concealment to Royalty during the pursuit of the Republicans; also of Bosworth, near which was fought the memorable battle, which put an end to the contest of the Roses, between Henry of Richmond and Richard III.; altogether the present is fully entitled to the merited commenda tions bestowed upon the prEceding parts. THE "FLY SHEETS" VINDICATED A volume of nearly 200 pages has just been issued by Mr. Gilbert—being a vindication of the " Fly Sheets" from the attacks of a contemporary. Those interested in the progress of Wesleyan Methodism will find in the book a m ass o f va l ua bl e an d i n t ere sting information. THE ILLUSTRATED ATLAS. Parts X. and XI. of this elegant serial, just published, contain maps of Ireland, Egypt, Greece, and Switzerland, embellished with a number of graceful and characteristic designs—landscapes, cos tumes, historical groups, and celebrated buildings. NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWN ING AND PROMPT RESCUE. On Thursday evening last as a small sailing-boat, containing a gentleman, two ladies, and a waterman, was returning to Ramsgate from a pleasure cruise, the wind blowing rather strong at the time, in going about just outside Ramsgate west pier she missed stays, was taken aback, and went down stern foremost. Some persons on the pier who witnessed the accident immediately gave the alarm, which having been heard on board the private steam-yacht Ondine, lying inside the west pier, three of her crew jumped into the jolly boat and pulled away to the spot. In the meantime the parties upset, having got clear of the boat, were seen in a most perilous position struggling in the water to keep themselves afloat, the gentleman and one of the ladies being locked together. Two or three ropes were thrown over the pier wall, and one man descended and held up the waterman, but the others were surging too far out to be within reach. They were, however, exhorted and en couraged by the cries of the spectators to keep up, as relief was at hand, which in the course of a few seconds arrived. The Ondine's boat pulled round the pier head, dashed alongside, and seized the gentleman and lady, who having separated from their death-like embrace, appeared quite exhausted, and then delivering them to the care of the harbour boat, which had quickly followed, they proceeded to the rescue of the other female, who had sunk once or twice, and saved her with the aid of the boat-hook. The waterman and the two first mentioned were then rowed by the harbour-boat to the east pier, whence the gentleman and lady were conveyed to their lodgings, Waterloo Plains; but the other lady, who was the wife of a gentleman referred to, was taken directly on board the yacht. She was dead cold, and almost insensible; but being divested of her wet bonnet and outside saturated ap parel, she was, by the aid of copious draughts of hot brandy and water, and by rubbing of the hands and wrists, speedily restored. She was then wrapped round in a thick warm blanket cloak, and rowed ashore to the landing-place nearest the coach-stand, whence in a fly she was restored to her anxious but equally unfortunate friends, all having had a most provi dential escape. Had the boats been a few seconds later, in all probability they would have perished, for their heavy clothes as the water penetrated were fast drowning them. The men who were so prompt with the Ondine's boat, we learn, were William Seckett, John Elliott, and Thomas Spicer. The two former of these have medals and testimonials from the French Minister of Marine, for their gallantry in saving life, under very perilous circumstances, at Boulogne, dur ing the heavy gales of last winter, the fir s t- name d having distinguished himself on two occasions. NARROIV ESCAPE WHILST FORDING TUE RIBBLE.— A lady and her family had a very providential escape from drowning, whilst crossing the river on Thursday week. The circumstances are as follow :—The lady of the Rev. J. S. Hodgson, rector of Brinklow, in War wickshire, together with her family, were returning from the residence of her nephew, at Rufford, about ten o'clock in the evening, and were crossing the Ribblo at the ford at Hesketh Bank, in a phaeton, having a guide accompanying them, when, either in consequence of having mistaken their course, or from the river being deeper than usual, they were overpowered by the force of the water, and one horse was carried overhead, whilst the other narrowly escaped, the water at the same time washing over the top of the phaeton, which, together with the horses, sank and remained firmly fixed in the so ft sand, placing the party in a most perilous and awful position, and, to add to the horrors of the situation, the night was very dark. The guide pushed on for as sistance, and rpcedily returned with a shandray, into which Mrs. Hodgon and her family were removed. The horse in this vehicle also stuck in the sand, and it was not without great exertion that the party were saved from an awful death. Mrs. Hodgson is now staying at Southshorc, and on Sunday last she and her family returned thanks for their miraculous escape.—Preston Pilot. Mr. Robert Partridge, the treasurer of Cremorne gardens, has announced his benefit for to-morrow ( Tuesday).

GUTTA PERCHA.—The numerous ways in which this novel and peculiar article of merchandise is now found to be capable of being appropriated causes the im portation of it to continue to take place in large quanti ties.
