SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. It would seem that those miserable devils, the ;nob of Dublin, are kept in a state of incessant fe ver by Mr. O'Connell and his gang. Lord Angle sea, however unaffected, unobtrusive, and void of pretension in his personal habits, cannot take a quiet ride of recreation without being assailed, as he passes through the streets of the metropolis, with hideous yells, and other unmanly insults. An account of what the Noble Marquis encountered in this way from the rabble, on the first day of term, when he happened to be riding along the quay near the Courts, is given in Tuesday's papers. "No Alge rine Act,"—" Repeal of the Union," and so forth, rung in the ears of the Lord Lieutenant. As if the wretched creatures who thus assaulted him had any notion of " Algerine Acts," or of " Repeals," but such as their own arbitrary and tyrannical ba shaw thought fit for his own purposes to propa gate amongst them. But while this fury of the multitude was betraying itself out of doors, Mr. O'Connell and his associates were, within the walls of the Court of King's Bench , list( ring to the construction put by Mr. Justice Jebb on the proceed ings imputed to them, and on the law which they were charged with having offended—a construc tion somewhat different from that which the same law and the same acts had borne, when Mr. O'Con- Nell stood forth to be their expounder. From the charge of the Learned Judge we are confit med in the conjecture yesterday given, that Mr. O'Connell had in his several speeches and letters lately pub lished, dwelt with prefessional and characteristic it:- genuity on that branch of the accusation against him which was merely subordinate, and least dis tinct in the description of it, while the really promi nent and grave offence was passed over by him as if it had no existence. It appears that the actually meeting in direct violation of the statute stands foremost in the bill of in&ctment, and that the con spiring to " evade" the pre clatnation about which we have heard so much, is called, in direct terms, by Judge Jebb,-a conspiroci to commit a breach of Me law, by meeting under false names and devices, but really for the same ends as those prohibited by law, and intending likewise that the meditated meetings should be composed of the same persons as had been placed under legal ban by the Lord Lieutenant. It has been argued by an Evening Contemporary here, that even should the same end be proved against the subsequent meeting, as th-it which the former meeting had been foi bidden to prosecute, mere " community of purpose" will hardly be allowed to establish the identity of the two association , . " For," saith the logician, " we have Reform meet ings at the same time in London and at Manchester, and successive meetings at London, yet nobody efer, in common discourse, calls these the same meetings." Undoubtedly not ; but a material link of the chain of reasoning is absent in the above instance, because no allusion is made to the persons of whom the meetings are composed. Now we conceive, that under the Irish Act of Parliament in question, (and let the disturbers of the peace of Ireland answer for her being afflicted by such Statutes), the same person:, dispersed on one day, and meeting on a subsequent day in the same city, for the prosecution of the same purpose, if that second fact be proved as well as the first, will be held to have committed an offence against the statute, by having held an ad journed meeting in that very form and substance which the law has prohibited. Mr. O'Connell's rigmarole about a certain mode of warning by the Magistrates being necessary to bring the members of a meeting within the penal provisions of the lam, is effectually quashed by Judge Jebb, who states that the meeting together. may be unlawful, and therefore punishable, whether the parties disperse or not on receiving the order of the Magistrate. We are borne out in our assertion of a few days back, that scarcely one man of property or respec tability in Ireland is leagued with Mr. O'Connell in this revolutionary and fatal project.—Times. At the meeting of the parish of St. Andrew, Holborn, on Tuesday last, Dr. Bowring's allusion to the opinions of the Lord Chancellor on the ques tion of Reform is variously reported. In the Chron icle he is reported to have said— " On this as well as on all political subjects, the present Lord Chancellor was deservedly looked up to as a great authority; but (continued the Learned Doctor) this I know, from a personal conversation with him, that his mind has been much shaken by the discoveries of the people on this subject. Only three days before he ac cepted his present high office, 1 had a conversation with him and he then said, I shall henceforward be an advom cate of radical Reform—(Cheers) —to which I replied, that by which we radical Reformers test the honesty of a man, is by the ballot, for they are the only radical Re formers who are ready to remove the voter from the in fluence of hope and fear, so that they may be able to dis charge their duty without fear of punishment, or expecta tion of reward.' His answer to this was, ' If I cannot support the vote by ballot, or go to universal suffrage, at all events I would support a plan which should give every householder an opportunity of freely exercising his opinion.' To this my answer was, so far-so good ! And I have an opportunity of knowing that within these few days, his Lordship has said, that to the question of the ballot he is i idifferent." _ This, we believe, to be a correct report of what Dr. Bowring actually said. In the Morning Herald the following version is given : " The authority of Lord Brougham bad great weight, and he (Mr. B ) had good reason to know that the mind of that Noble Lord had undergone a change respecting the ballot of late. Three days before his elevation to the woolsack, he (Mr. B.) had a conversation with that Noble Lord, on the subj. ct of Reform, when he said lie should be a zealous advocate for Radical Reform. Wh tt we Radicals mean by. Radical Reform, observed Mr. 8., is vote by ballot. I will not suppot t the ballot, observed Lord Brougham, but I will support universal suffrage. I wish to see every householder invested with the franchise. This was the substance of the conversation. And Mr. B. knew that Lord Brougham had said, a few days ago, that he was indifferent about the Lallot, which showed the ef fect which the expression of public opinion had on his tnind.—(Applause.)" There are here to be noticed what Dr. Bowring did state to the meeting, assuming the account in the Chronicle to be correct, and what he is reported to have stated, but which he did not state. We can take it upon us to state, and we have distinct authority for doing so, that the Lord Chancellor never said to Dr. Bowling that he should be a zealous advocate for Radical Reform, or that he should support universal suffrage. For this ,bsurd statement, however, Dr. Bowring is not responsible. But we are confident Dr. Bowring's memory has • deceived him, when he attributes to the Lord Chan cellor the saying, that he should thenceforward be a Radical Reformer. At the time when this con versation is alleged to have taken place, the Lord Chancellor was attending meetings of bodies of the House of Commons, and unfolding a plan diametrically opposite to what is understood to he Radical Reform, which plan he was to bring in the Tuesday before he took office; arid it is inconceiv able, therefore, that he should declare himself a Radical Reformer. As the statement of the Lord Chancellor's charge of opinion upon the ballot is only given upon hearsay, the whole, perhaps, reAs on a mistaken inference, his Lordship's a rguments on the night when he made the speech against it having been chiefly directed against its efficacy merely. We cannot let the opportunity pass with out expressin g our regret that the substance of private conversation, even on public subjects, should be stated at public meetings. Were such a prac tice to be tolerated, all freedom of intercourse would soon be at an end.—Morning Chronicle. It now appears that the Irish Government do not intend to confine themselves, us was at first repre sented, in their legal proceedings against Mr. 0' Cmt nell and his fellow agitators, to the charge of "con spiring, by shift and device, to evade the Lord Lieutenant's proclamation," but have also charged them with " having assembled and constituted a meeting or association prohibited by the Lord Lieu nant's proclamation. This latter is an accusation which, in a legal point of view, we can understand. Though we impugn the policy of issuing such pro clamations, because the Act of Parliament which authorises them is of a despotic character, and the calling it into action must make the people of Ire land feel that they do not share the freedom which the Constitution guarantees to their British fellow subjects, yet we admit that Government, having once adopted the course of issuing those procla mations, are bound to see them respected, other wise they would stultify themselves, by setting up an authority only to be knocked down, and by showing the inclination to adopt arbitrary mea sures, without the courage to enforce them. If, herefore, the proclamations which prohibited cer tain meetings have been disobeyed, they could not, for consistency sake, avoid prosecuting those who were guilty of such disobedience ; and, if meetings coming within the description of those prohibited by the proclamations have been held, a clear ground was laid for the penal proceedings which have fol lowed. This constitutes a dcfined and tangible offence, and is very different from any thing implied by the vague and shadowy charge of " conspirine to evade the Lord Lieutenant's Proclamations." If the latter accusation were the only one on which Mr. O'Connell was to take his t•A!, we still adhere to the opinion—for which we have given our rea sons—that it mas not likely to be borne cut either by the words of the statute, or sustained under an in dictment for conspiracy at common law. If a penal statute be so drawn up that it can be evaded, every man who, by his own ingenuity, or by acting on the advice of others, can evade it, has a right to do so, for the very term evasion implies the avoid ance of any thing that can be construed into a violation of the law. So did the clergy of old evade the Statutes of Mortmain by inventing the doctrine of uses, long leases, and other contri vances. Were those who so combined to evade the law indictable for conspiracy ? No Crown lawyer in England ever thought they were—and therefore it became necessary for the Legislature to pass new enactments to meet those cunning shifts and crafty devices, which were calculated to elude the spirit of the law while they violated not its letter. There is no precedent of an indictment fer evading a law, or of a conspiracy to evade it— otherwise certain commercial transactions of open and daily occurrence, by which a particular pre vision of the Stamp Act is evaded, would render the parties indictable; hut the only constitutional mode of counteracting a new device to evade a particular law, is by passing a Supplemental Act of Parliament. That, in the first instance, Mr. O'Connell and his associates were only charged with " conspiring to evade the Lord Lieute nant's proclamation," is evident from this fact— that Mr. Wallace, the King's Counsel, one of the most learned, able, and eminent la myers at the Irish bar, addressed a letter to Air. O'Connell, of whom he has been a political opponent, making him an offer of his professional services in his defence, on the ground of the unconstitutional nature of the charge, and the dangerous precedent against public liberty which it went to establish. What does this gentleman say ? " In my opinion the charge savours strongly of illega lity and oppression, and in this view of your case, if my very feeble proressional aid can be of use in your defence, I shall most cheerfully give it. With sincere respect for Lord Anglesey personally, and a wish to support his Go vernment, even against you, so long as it is conducted on principles of law and the Constitution, his Lordship seems to me to have violated both, in his proceedings on the ILlawful Assembly Act. To me it appears that he has misapplied that law to cases to which it was not appli cable, and has strained it in his proclemations—particu larly the last—to an extent which greatly endangers public liberty." This opinion only applied to the " charge of con spiring to evade the proclamations." But if Go vernment have since obtained further evidence, which enables them to put Mr. O'Connell and the other defendants on their trial, on a distinct charge of violating the law by holding a meeting which the proclamation had actually prohibited, they had a right to do so; for they can lay the conspiracy in one count of the indictment, and the actual violation of the law, by holding an illegal meeting, in another. If they succeed upon this last count only, the pe nalties of the Act will apply. It is quite ridiculous to argue that the Act expired last Session ; it is the present Session that limits its duration.—Morning Herald. FURTHER ACCOUNT OF THE DESTRUC TION OF ST. PETER'S CHURCH, BIRMINGHAM. (From the Chronicle Birmingham Correspondent.) On Tuesday morning, soon after midnight (about half past twelve), this beautiful structure was discovered to be on fire, the flames and smoke being perceived by the watchmen and passing persons to issue from ,the open arches of the tower. Nearly twenty minutes elapsed be fore an entrance could be effected into the body of the church, and the supply of water for the engines was very limited. The fire was observed to run in flames along the roof, and, it appears, passed rapidly along the dry timber work and rafters of the ceiling, near the tower. It did not appear at first in the ground flour or body of the church, as the glaring li4ht of the blaze, reflected through the windows, exhibited distinctly the upper progress of the flames, and the area of the building at first entirely safe. It raged with unabated and devouring fury till the entire wood work, altar piece, and pews of the building were one vast body of ignition. The lead on 'h e roof melted, and pound into the common blaze, and the bells soon yielded to the devastating element. The roof fell in, and for a time added to the rage of the conflagration ; and the shell of the lantern tower, and the bare stone walls are the only remaining vestiges of the church. The alarm occasioned in se populous a town may be well imagined, and ti:e situation of the build ing at the top of Dale-cad, nearly the highest elevation, occasioned the numination of the fire to be seen in all the adjacent parts of the neighbouring counties of Stafford and Worcester, contiguous to Birmingham. The church was entirely new, and had been completed not more than five years since, at an expence of 20,0001., part of its cost being defrayed from the Two Million Fund of the church Commissioners, and part by subscription. The incumbent is the Rev. Mr. Clarke, son of the King's Counsel. The cause and exact origin of the fire are involved in complete mystery, and wiil probably so remain. It has been sup tinged that the flues—always the first and easiest suspicion —were the remote cause of accidental ignition. On a full inquiry and examination into this probable origin, nn ground whatever appears for the supposition : and, on the contrary, much against such a cause of the conflagration. Strong auspicions are entertained and expressed that it was the work of an incendiary. The church lead been as usual cleaned the previous day, after the ser vices of Sunday, and no fires or light were observed when it was left. The time of night and absence of any apparent accidental cause, have increased the apprehension of the concerted and wilful nature of the destruction of the building. It is ate undoubted fact, that the Rev. M. Moseley, the Rev. Mr. Garhett, and the Rev. Archdeacon Hodson, have received threatening letters, and one sonic few weeks since, expressly stating that St. Peter's, among other of the parish churches, would be destroyed in five weeks. Mr. Clarke, however, is not obnoxious in his political or clerical character, and we believe that no tithes whatever attach to the church ; indeed, there could be no assignable cause fur the selection, by a fanatic or incendiary, of that particular parish church, further than that it might, perhaps, be entered unobserved inure readily than others. The above circumstances have given rise to strong suspicions un the minds of the Clergy anti many of the in habitants; but the fire is otherwise involved in utter mystery. Some individuals, it is reported, were appre hended for purloining prayer boeks, bibles, and moveable ' property, which may have occasioned a rumour that persons were in custody on a charge of wilfully setting fire to the building. The most probable accidental cause may have been the gas. It is intended to establish a watch in the other churches. GORMANDIZING EXTRAORDINARY.--W e received the following particulars about three weeks since, but the fact appeared so extraordinary that we could not place any belief in it. We have since been assured that the " Receiver-General" did actually perform it, and upon that authority we publish it. A man, at Hasling den, fur a trifling wager, ate, first, three pounds weight of thick porridge, one quart of water, one pint of milk, one quart of small drink, two oat-cakes; next, nine pounds of cow-head, without bone, four quarts of water, one quart of ale, and three oat-cakes, very cleverly ; after this, he said he could like a dozen penny pies, of which he ate seven, when he gave it up. Ile is a pauper in 11,slingden workhouse, and when he rose the following morning he wanted to repeat the dose. It is computed the whole weighed about 32 or 33 pounds.—Bolton Chronicle. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. The LORD MAYOR received a letter from his Majesty's Consul at Calais, stating that an English gentleman had died in that town, and requesting his Lordship's assistance in procuring an identity of the body. The letter mentioned that the deceased had at Dover got on board the Salamander post-officer packet, and on the passage to Calais had thrown himself into the sea. By the prompt and active exertions of Captain Sher lock, however, he was taken up, and he was professionally assisted by a Mr. Henry Rickards, a medical student who hap pened to be on board, but notwithstanding all that could be done, he did not live three hours after the arrival of the vessel in France. There was no paper found on the person, or in the trunk of the deceased, from which the identity could be ascertained, but from his pockets were taken twenty Spanish bonds for 1,020/. each; together with about 1001. in cash and notes, all of which property and his watch were in the hands of the Consul. It was believed by a passenger named Merewethers, brother to the Serjeant-at-law, that the deceased was Mr. J. Roarke, a highly respectable Chancery solicitor, who formerly belonged to the house or Sand) s, Horton, and Roark, of No. 5, Crane-court, Fleet street ; but the Consul wished to have a more com plete satisfaction as to the identity before the inter ment. The LORD MAYOR directed Mr. Brown, the Marshal, to make the necessary inquiries. Mr. Brown went accordingly to Mr. Roarke's former partners, who expressed great surprise at the statement, but could not give any information on the subject. The Marshal then extended his in- quiries, but could only learn that Mr. Roarke had been absent for some days. A gentleman, however, left London for Calais immediately upon hearing of the occurrence. A Jew's trick, the circumstances attending which were curious, was exposed in the Justice-room. A fish•salesman was summoned before the LORD MAYOR, by a young Jew, charged with having sold stinking fish. The facts were as follows : The Jew purchased at an early hour in the morn ing at Billingsgate-market a quantity of soles, at 3s. 6d. a dozen, of one of the salesmen. Soon afterwards the fish fell to Is. 6d, a dozen, and as the Jew could not sell his purchase as he expected, and the salesman would not think of abating the terms of the sale, the former hit upon a plan, by which he thought he could be even with the latter, and do a slice of injury to the character of the salesman be sides. He dabbed the fish in the puddle, and beat them about in such a manner that he easily made some of the officers at the Mansion-house • believe that the soles were stinking al; hough they were not long dead. The fact was, that their appearance was such as to induce a person not to approach them without putting his fingers to his nose. A summons was granted at the Justice-room; but the salesman, upon receiving it, appealed to Mr. Gold ham, the clerk of the market, who had seen all the fish, and who knew that the charge was false. Mr. Goldham immediately ordered that the soles should be exhibited by the Jew, and, perceiving at once " how the cat jumped," desired that three of the fish should be left at his office, and said he would attend on the appointed day at the Mansion-house. The LORD MAYOR, having heard the complaint, asked the Jew whether the fish happened to be so bad that he could not eat any of it ? The Jew— S'elp me Goth, my Lor, I wouldn't give them to a dog; they vas enough to poison the devil. I yonder the gentleman could sell sich a bominable harticle. Mr. Goldham—But is it very odd, that you who have been so long a buyer at Billingsgate, should not know whether the fish you buy is good or bad. I know you to have as good an eye and nose for a Hat-fish as any one in the market ?—The Jew was not so nice a judge. He left it to the salesman, and he knew nothing about the cheat until he was going out of the market, when he met a man wot he knowed, named Solomons, and Solomons put the laugh upon him, and axed him how he would sell his stink by the foot.—(Laughter.) The fish was here produced, and certainly it had a revo!ting appearance. The LORD MAYOR began to be a convert to the opinion of Mr. Solonrons that the odour could not be very agreeable ; but Mr. Goldham thought he could convince his Lordship that the whole was a Jew's trick. The Jew—A trick ! Blesh my soul! how can you say it's a trick ? Why its colour is quite changed with the stink. Mr. Goldham—To be sure it is discoloured; and how could it be otherwise ? Dutch Sam might as well have been whacking at them as you. (Laughter.) The Jew—Dutch Sam ! Take care vot you sav, Mr. Goldham. S'elp me Goth, I'm a respectable man. I a'nt n, fighting man. Mr. Goldham—l don't say you fight with men, but I'll be on my oath that you have been whop ping these poor fish most unmercifully. However, you hav'nt been able to beat them as you deserve to be beaten yourself—till they stink.—(Laughter.) The Jew (greatly disconcerted) —Stink ! Why it did that afore I seed it. Mr. Goldham—Now, what would you say if I'd eat some of the fish ? 'Tis now two days since you complained that the soles were unfit for use. I shall taste what you were too delicate to smell. One of Mr. Goldham's men then brought in a broiled sole, and a boiled sole, which he swore were two of the worst-looking fish in the whole batch. If their appearance and smell were (Ls agreeable before they were cooked, the fire had cer tainly purified them, for they looked as fresh as if they had been but that morning taken out of the %%quer. . If the Jew was dismayed at this change in the appearance of things, he was quite knocked up at being invited by Mr.Goldham to take a share of the fish, which soon disappeared, after the clerk of the market and a few of the officers had taken a mouth ful a-piece, amongst the astonished and delighted paupers. The LORD MAYOR told the Jew that the trick was an ingenious one, and might, if the case had not been taken up by an experienced man, have succeeded. The defendant had, however, gained a caution by the result, if he lost his time and his fish. The Jew hoped than, at all events, the cooked fish would be paid for.—(Laughter.) His LORDSHIP expressed himself happy at the detection of the trick, and dismissed the complaint. B 0 TV-STREET. Yesterday a decent-looking man named John Proctor, was charged with having stolen some ar ticles of plate belonging to the lion. Mr. Wm. Pole Wellesley, in whose service he had lately lived. Augustus Guillarnian lived as valet to the Hon. Mr. Wellesley, whose town house was at No. 39, Dover -street, Piccadilly. The prisoner had also lived in Mr. Wellesley's service until within the last three months, and during that period witness acted in the capacity of butler as well as valet, and had charge of some plate which was kept in a cupboard in the housekeeper's room, to which no one but witness had access. The plate deposited in this cupboard was not in use by the family. About the beginning of last August witness went into the country, and whilst there he forwarded the key of the cupboard in question to a servant named Pearse, and, on arriving in town, about three weeks after, and examining the said plate, he found missing a silver soup-ladle, two silver forks, a silver fish-knife, and half a dozen of table-spoons. To the best of witness's knowledge and belief the silver soup-ladle and other articles now produced formed part of the plate he had so missed, and which was of the value of 101. Ana Pringle, of No. 108, Titclifield-street, Ox ford-street, in August last lived as housekeeper with the Hon. Mr. Wellesley, at West-green House, Hampshire. During that time the prisoner lived in his service also, and was in the habit of going to London, and returning to West-green House. A few weeks since the prisoner came to witness's room, and, placing a brown paper parcel on the table, said, " Will you take care of these things for me until I ask you for them ?" Witness said, " Very well ;" and put the paper parcel, the contents of which she was ignorant of, into a cupboard in her room, and she had since delivered the same parcel to the first witness. To the best of her belief the brown paper parcel now produced was the same as that of which abe had spoken. Sir R. BIRNIE observed that it was a remarkable feature in the case that the prisoner should have placed the plate in the hands of Mrs. Pringle, who, had she examined the parcel would, in all probab lity, have recognised the contents as belonging to Mr. Wellesley. The prisoner was then fully committed to New gate for trial. We mentioned in our last the lamentable pre valence in town of typhus fever. We learn that in some of the neighbouring villages it is still more frequent ; and is regarded as one of the most infectious diseases that have appeared in this country since the extirpation of the plague. Whole families are taken ill ; and there are many cases of relapses.— Glasgow Chronicle. One day last week a whimsical circumstance occurred in Ship-street. A little dirty ragged boy had been fighting with another, and getting well beat he lay down in the mud so thoroughly begrimed that he might have been mistaken for a bundle of rags; nor could all the entreaties of his friends and gibes of his opponent induce hint to rise from his fallen state. At this junc ture a donkey cart came by, when some of the by-starders wi!li the consent of the driver, thew the boy into the cart. Sympathy, they say, is contagious, and so it proved in this instance ; far scarcely had the boy been thrown in when the donkey lay down in his turn, and took his pas time in the dirt; nor could all the thumpings and bump ings of iris master induce him to go forward one step with the little dirty donkey in the eart.—Brighton Gazette. PUBLIC EXECUTIONS.—At one of the re cent executions of an incendiary, it is reported in the newspapers, that " great numbers of people attended the execution; and because the execution was delayed a few minutes over nine o'clock, they began whistling and clap ping, something in the style of the galleries at the theatre when there is any delay." Such is the beneficial effect of the punishment of death upon the feelings of the people. It is notorious that pickpockets are never so active as at an execution. On a similar occasion in the North, some time ago, when the peasantry had come from far and near ta see a man hanged, and he was respited a short time before the hour fixed for his death, discontent of the loudest kind was manifested. The people exclaimed, in true Yorkshire, " What a sheam, to bring us all this way for nought !" They are mistaken who value highly the effect of public executions on the morals : executions are considered in the light of very serious melodramas, where sympathy may\sometimes be excited for the sufferer, but no horror for the crime, and by which, in fact, the fear of capital punishment is weakened.—Spectator. MURDER OF A PROTESTANT MAGIS TRATE. —On Friday evening last Mr. WiLLIAn Br.oon, of Applevale, county of Clare, and in the neighbourhood of the celebrated Corofin, was inhu►rtanly murdered. The following is an extract of a letter, containing the dreadful particulars :—" About eight o'clock on Friday evening a party of men came up to the house of WILLIAM BLOOD, of Applevale, Esq., a Magistrate for the county of Clare, near to Corofin, the peaceable parish of the Rev. Mr. MURPHY. Mr. BLOOD was sitting alone in his parlour, when a shot was fired through the door, upon which be retreated to the kitchen, and thence to the back yard, where, dreadful to relate, he was barbarously murdered ! It ap pears the party robbed the house of some money, and then decamped ; and, although this took place so early as eight o'clock in the evening, it was not known to the police, who are stationed within half a mile of the spot, until the next morning, nor has any clue been bad to the perpetra tors of this sanguinary act, so complete is the spirit of in timidation in that unhappy district."—Dublin Evening Mail. An accident happened at the side lock at Cardiff, on Sunday week, which has very much incon venienced a large fleet of vessels, and interrupted the trade of the port most seriously. It was no less than the total disappearance of the lower gates of the canal. It was occasioned by the immense body of water pressing them within, and a vessel coming violently in contact with them from without. The effect was instantaneous ; the gates were completely torn from their situations, and the immense torrent which followed was of a most appalling description. Vessels outside, waiting to be admitted, were violently tossed about for some minutes. A young man belonging to the Canal Company was standing on the platform of one of the gates when the crush came, and was instantly whirled in the vortex beneath. Being a good swimmer, after the lapse of about four minutes, he made his appearance at some distance, and was ultimately picked up, with a short pipe still sticking in his mouth, which was there when he disappeared. The Canal Com pany arc indefatigable in their exertions to repair the mis chief, and it is hoped that in a few days the canal will be again available for purposes of trade. DARING OUTRAGES IN WESTMINSTER. —About eleven o'clock yesterday morning a party of men and boys, about 200 in number, and principally dressed as seamen, passed through the City into Westminster, for the avowed purpose of presenting a petition to the Lords of the Admiralty, praying the redress of certain alleged grievances, and particularly those of flogging and impress ment. They had with them a union-jack ; and, from the orderly manner in which they passed through Holborn and Long-acre to the Admiralty, no apprehensions were entertained hut that they would quietly disperse imme diately after accomplishing the ostensible object for which they had assembled—in consequence no extra precautions were taken by the police; on their return, however, a fir different spirit was manifested. In passing through Long_ acre they stopped in front of each eucees.ive baker's shop, gave several cheers, and then demanded bread. Some of the mob were heard to call out " Bread or blood !" Iu every instance in Long acre they succeeded in getting bread given to them. Serjeant PERKING and a few of the F. division of police, who were following them, interfered to check them, but were deterred from acting decisively by their inequality in numbers, and the determined spirit dis played by the mob, who were loud in their execrations of the new police. On coming to the shop of Mr. MooRE, a baker, in Great Queen -street, their demand of bread being met by a refusal, they smashed one of the shop win dowe, anti forcibly possessed themselves of three quartern loaves. A similar outrage was committed at the shop of Mr. ALEXANDER, in Holborn. The mob, on passing by the City boundary by Gray's-inn-lane, turned round and shouted at and derided the police, who they knew had no power to follow them any farther. The mob was under stood t o have collected about Wapping, and, there is rea son to believe, was in a large proportion composed of re gular thieves. APPREHENSION OF THE BASILDON IN CENDIARIES.-It will he recollected that on the night of the 2d instant a rroat terrible and destructive fire took place on the farm of Mr. IlaiNitam, an extensive farmer, at Basildon, near Billericay. Tile barns, stables, grana ries, stacks of corn, witli a number of cattle, were en tirely destroyed, and the damage done exceeded :3,000/. It was quite evident that this occurrence was the work of au incendiary, and the most active measures were adopted to discover the perpetrator. A reward of 1,0001. was offered to any person who should give information which should lead to the detection of the miscreant, but, up to a few days ago, nothing satisfactory was developed. The circumstances of the fire were curious. Mr. R. had a threshing machine upon his premises, which he had not us-d for some time. Ile received an anonymous letter, informing Mtn that if he did not take it to pieces his house would he burnt down. In consequence of this let ter he packed up his machine, bur, on the Friday before the fire, he unpacked it, and had it prepared again for work. On the Saturday night following his barns and stacks were fired. In the early psrt of the week two labourers were apprehended by a constable named CURTIS, in consequence of information given by Mr. BREWITT, large fanner, at Rayleigh. The men's names were La.cir and ATKINS, the latter of whom has a brother in Dlr. BaEwires employ. A few days ago the brother went to visit his father, who lives with the prisoner at Basildon. When he returned to Rayleigh he appeared very melan choly anti dejected, and upon being questioned, he stated that his brother had a hand in Mr. RAINHAM'S fire. He said his brother had confessed to him that he knew who did it, and that be had been very unhappy ever since. The brother further added, that his brother's language implied that he had a hand in the fire, and that LACH had assisted him. The prisoners on this information were apprehended by order of the Magistrates of Billericay, when the statement of ATKINS'S brother was taken down. Another witness swore that he walked to a neighbouring . village and back on the night of the fire with Lull, and left the prisoner about one o'clock within a few yards of Mr. BAINIIAM'S barn. The fire b:.oke out about two o'clock. Lads, however, denied the truth of this, but admitted that he was out till a late hour without, how verr; seeing witness that night.—The prisoners were re manded. MYSTERIOUS ATTEMPT TO SET FIRE to the PARSONAGE-HOUSE of WITHYCOMBE. (Fromlteßridgewatera instant, ndSern a man v‘a ersetshire H er,as ex amined On Monday, l the 17th x_ amined before J. F. LUTTRELL, Esq. M.P. a. Dunster, on a charge preferred against him by the Rev. C. A. Verelst, Rector of Withycombe, of at tempting to set fire to his house. From the evi dence of Mrs. Verelst and servants, it appeared that the man came to the house and asked alias on the morning of the preceding day, and that soon site' he left some matting, which had been nailed up against the outside of the house to protect some shrubs from frost, was discovered to be on fire ; that the man was instantly pursued and searched, but nothing whatever was found upon him except two- pence, which had been given him by some people in the peighbourhood. It was further proved that the man was only a short time on the premises. The worthy Magistrate dismissed the charge, but committed the prisoner upon another, under the Vagrant Act, for one month to the tread-mill. On the Friday following, a young women who had lived about three weeks in Mr.. Vetelst's service, was brought before the same Magistrate by , her master, charged with having attempted to art fire to his house on the preceding day. The worthy and excellent Magistrate, before the several deposi tions were read, addressed the prisoner, a very mild respectable-!ooking young woman, and told her he was sorry to see a person of her appearance in such an awful situation. " If," said he, " the evidence which shall he given be such as will oblige me to commit you, and you, in another and superior court, be convicted of the crime you are charged with, your punishment will be death; therefore I entreat you to pay every attention to the reading of the depositions, and put any questions to the witnesses which you think proper, or suggest any thing to nee and I will do it for you." The prisoner, making a low curtsey, said, " Thank your honour; I am wholly innocent." The Rev. C. A. Verelst was then sworn—The substance of his evidence was, that the prisoner had lived in his service about three weeks as house maid; that he had seen the prisoner about half-past two o'clock on the preceding day, near a door up stairs, the pulley of which he was adjusting; that about half-past three he noticed a strong smell of fire, that it was discovered to have been caused by a fire which had been in a sort of cupboard, under a window-seat, in an unfurnished room in his house, and that a piece of paper and a skipping-rope, partly burnt (which he produced), were taken from it by his gardener, George Littey; and that be (Mr. Verelst) and his butler, Pincornbe, after wards found, in the same place, a small piece of candle, wrapped in a little bit of greasy newspaper (also produced); that he charged the prisoner with having done ir, and had her apprehended. Mrs. Verelst was next sworn and examined—She saw the prisoner about half-past twelve o'clock on the preceding day searching for a piece of soap in an unlocked closet appropriated to the housemaid, holding in her hand a bit of candle without a candle stick, about two inches long, wrapped in a piece of newspaper. On being asked by the Magistrate, " How she knew the paper was part of a news paper ?" she said, " I was near enough to discover that it was so," and she swore positively that it was a piece of newspaper. This drew forth a remark from Mr. Luttrell, that in another place, if the charge went there, she (Mrs. Verelst) would undergo a most searching cross-examination. " For how," said that gentleman, rolling up a small piece of printed paper, printed with type about the size of that used for newspapers, " can any person posi tively swear from looking at this paper in my hand that it is, or is not, part of a newspaper ?" Mrs. Verelst then said, she would swear it was a piece of newspaper to the best of her belief. " But you have already, Madam," said the Magistrate, " twice sworn positively that it was a piece of newspaper." At this period the other witnesses were ordered out of the room. Mrs. Verelst then went on to say that the prisoner went up stairs about two o'clock, though she had no business there, and described the discovery of the smell of fire, and her going into the room where the smoke was, when she instantly directed Littey, the gardener, to the window -seat, and cried " There is the fire, tear down the boards." On being asked what made her direct Littey to the window -seat, she replied, " I saw the smoke issuing from it." She admitted the room was full of smoke at the time. She was asked if any rooms in the house had been washed or scrubbed that day, which it was the prisoner's place to do when it was necessary; she answered positively " No." She further said, in answer to other questions, that the prisoner had given her notice to leave her service at the end of the month, but that they had had no quarrel. The next person examined was her own maid, Harriet Merry, whose evidence was also an echo of her mistress's. The butler, Pincombe, was examined next: he swore that he saw a candlestick, which was pro duced, about the time mentioned by Mrs. Verelst, near the housemaid's closet, with a piece of candle in it about two inches long ; but whether it was wrapped in paper or not, he did not know. George Littey, the gardener, then swore that be was alarmed at the cry of fire, that he emered the house, ran up stairs, went with his master into the room, which was full of smoke, and began to ex amine the creaks of the floor, when he was directed to the window-seat by his mistress, who said, " Look in the window -seat, look in the window seat I" which he did, and found the piece of paper and the skipping-rope, partly burnt. There was no fire there then, and those things were cold. The Magistrate now directed the room to be cleared while he consulted his clerk. In about five minutes the prisoner and her accusers were called in, and were again admitted; when the worthy and excellent Magistrate, addressing the prisoner, said, " I feel great pleasure in saving that you are dis charged, and that I believe you to be wholly inno cent, and that when you leave this room, you will do so as free from imputation of being guilty of the charge thin day brought against you, as you would have done had you walked out of it a week ago. Cause for suspicion there was, and it is my belief that there was a fire to create an alarm, or,some worse purpose, and that that fire originated with some one residing in the house ; but that person, I believe, was certainly not you ; and I heartily wish that the real criminal may yet be discovered and punished." It was market-day at Dunster, and the room was filled by the yeomanry and tradespeople of the town and neighbourhood, who heartily congratulated the poor girl (a stranger in the neighbourhood and a native of Exeter) on her escape, and a subscrip tion was instantly made for her, which did as much honour to the subscribers as did their symp at h y an d anxiety during the examination.: The expressions of feeling during the time of Mrs. Verelst being examined were so strong, that Mr. Luttrell was obliged to restrain them, and to declare, " that however unwilling to do so, he should order the room to be cleared if they were continued." At one time during her examination, Mrs. Verelst was so annoyed by the questions put to her, that she declared she would answer no more. Her husband and Mr. Luttrell, however, told her she must do so. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM.—On Monday a meeting of the inhabitants of the borough of Salford was held ! for the purp.,se of petitioning the Legislature for the right of being represented in Parliament. IV:A. HILL, Esq. the Chief Constable, presided, and opened the .. busin e s s o f t h e d ay w i t h a neat an d appropriate speech. Several resolutions, declaratory of the great increase of rpulation, and the consequent right of being repres nted in Parliament, were proposed and carried, upon which a petition was founded, which is to I;e forwarded to Lords HOLLAND and Minion] . for presentation, and a deputa tion was appointed to proceed to London for the further ance of these objects. The meeting was held in the Sal ford Town Hall, and was attended by from 200 to 300 persons. THE MARKETS. co ioUN; commodieu LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. , WHEAT, English, White, per 70lb.
