At a meeting of the Inhabitants of the Borough of Bury Saint Edmunds, duly convened by the Mayor, and held at the Guildhall of the said Borough on Saturday, the 23d of November, 1844, The MAYOu. In the Chair. Resolved,—That in accordance with' the Resolution of the meeting of the Western Division of the County of Suffolk, held at the Shire Hall, on Wednesday, the 18th of September last, it is the opinion of this meeting, that the London and Norwich Direct Railway, proceeding from the Norwieh and Brandon line at Thet• ford, through Bury Saint Edmunds, to join the Northern and Eastern Railway at Stanstead, is best adapted to the interests of this town and neighbonrhood ; and that the other projected lines in connexion with this Borough, are net only uncalled for, but injurious. That a memorial to the above effect be prepared for signa. ture, and that the Members for the Western Division of this County, and the Members of the Borough, be requested to ac. company a deputation, for the purpose of presenting it to her Majesty's Board of Trade; and that they be a l so requested to give, in Parliament, to " the London and Norwich Direct Railway," their strenuous and undivided support_ On the motion of F. K. EAOLB. Esq., seconded by Captain HunasllD, R.N., it:was also resolved unanimously—That the thanks of the meeting be given to the Mayor for his readiness in con vening the meeting, and for his able and impartial conduct in the Chair. JOSEPH HANBY HOLMES, Town Clerk. IT follows from the recent investigations of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, as reported in the Athenaeum of October 19, that the quantity of light furnished by one pound of PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES requires for its production four pounds of ordinary tallow ones; and, therefore, that the farmer, if at two shillings per lb., would be exactly as economical as the latter at sixpence per lb. Now, PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES are not sold at two shillings per lb., but at or under One Shilling per lb. They may be had of respectable dealers throughout the king. dom, if care be taken to prevent any imitations being passed off as the Patent Candles ; and the Trade may obtain them wholesale from Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxhall, and Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.

TIMES.—The question of allotments is now going the round of the counties. Its discussion appears to ease the conscience of the landowner, and cast a gleam of hope over the condition of the labourer. While there is talk, there is some promise of doing. Mean while the labourer is speaking, not in meetings, not in speeches and pamphlets, not in distinct plans of any kind, but occasionally in blind and desperate revenges, oftener more silently and solemnly by famine, sickness, and death. To judge from the un impassioned tone of " landowners, clergy, and tenant farmers," one might suppose the world standing still while the labourer's cause was heard and nature had agreed to suspend all her changeful operations. But, like the ship-load of ice which melted, while the Custom-house officer was ascertaining its place in the tariff, the labourer minishes continually, and is be coming a very small man indeed. We who see him already half melted, can scarcely picture him in the fair proportions he once enjoyed, or at least could once attain to. The full-grown cottager, the man who, after a youth of in-door service, could invest his little savings in a little stock, and with a little land, or a little right of pasture, was a little farmer, as like a great one as a sapling oak is to the monarch of the woods, is extinct. The croft, the orchard, the common, the cow or two, and its lesser accompani ments, have all passed away. The labourer is now a labourer indeed, and nothing more. He is plucked of his once decent plumage, and is the biped implume of the philosopher. And he continues to waste. The present generation is a hopeless case. IVe may al most give it up for dead. But what is to be done with the next ? Of the unborn there is hope. That there should be any discussion at all on the subject is hopeful. It cannot be supposed that the I hyriads who for their slender pittance of beans and onions teijed and perished at the Pyramids would have continued their fruitless labour, if there had been the smallest variety of sentiment as to the value of those structures and the necessity of their own case. But at present the discussion on the case of the English labourer does not proceed in the most profit able form. There is no attempt to elicit, gather, and reconcile facts. The labourer, his cottage, his wages, his employm en t, th e va l ue o f hi s pro d uce , his propor tion thereof; and all the circumstances of his condi tion, are not put into the crucible of inquiry, and left to show their own results, whatever they may happen to be. The investigation is of a much less searching character. It is limited to the benefits of certain defi nite proposals. Is it advisable to go about persuading or forcing the collective landowner to let certain small portions of land to the labourers ? There could hardly be imagined a more conventional way of con sidering the popular distress. Use, however, there is in all inquiries. The man who looks for silver may find lead, and the alchemists discovered how to purify metals when they were thinking of nothing but transmutation. So is there use in all social researches and expedients. A proposition to enlarge or rebuild the labourer's cottage, to provide him with a better description of household furniture, with a clock, with more frequent change of linen, or a decent hat and pair of shoes, or maintenance for an ass or a cat, or a pianoforte, or any other accession to his comforts, would not fail to elicit his hardships and difficulties; and would be profitable in that way, if not otherwise. The allotment scheme is of so artifi cial a character as to be really unintelligible without reference to some remarkable peculiarities of our so cial state. It is a proposition to let land to la bourers. What hinders the letting? Cannot they pay rent ? or will they not ? On the contrary, the labourer will generally pay much more rent than the farmer. When the Coryphaeus of economists declined to lot land for sd. a lug when he could get Bd. for it, he was not speaking with reference to the general demand for land; he could not get his Bd. a lug from farmers ; his supposed customers were a small genera tion of men who reckon land by lugs instead of acres, to whom it is the greatest of boons to get the smallest bit to call their own, but whom it is, unhappily, the apparent interest of the farmer and landowner to deprive of that small boon. His Lordship committed the singular inconsistency of speaking the language of political economy on an artificial supposition. Descending from the open market of nations, he applied its principles to the close market of a parish. He addressed himself to the forced and unnatural demand of a crowd of parochial serfs, who would outbid one another to the very gates of death, because they had always been rigorously excluded from it at any price, as if it were a natural correla tive to the intrinsic value of that land, and resulted freely and simply from the public competition. The allotment discussion, therefore, involves inquiry in tlis remarkable fact, that while the labourer is willing to give a good rent for land he cannot get it, but must be backed by a public agitation in his demand. Whole counties are summoned with the charitable intention of allowing labourers to give enormous rents for miserable patches of soil. If the two Gracchi were shaking the empire to its basis for an agrarian law to parcel our dukeries amongst our surplus population, there could not be more fuss, more extravagance of hope, more rigour of opposition, more earnestness ,of debate, than we now witness on the simple question whether they who till the soil may be allowed to rent not near a hundredth part of it for their own special use. The fight, the eloquence, the economical caution, the self-interested demur, the legislative wisdom, are—for what ?—for ten acres, may be, out of two thousand. At the next county or district meeting on this subject, we wish some inquisitive gentleman would just ask what makes the importance of this question. How comes it that the distribution of ten acres out of two thou sand has become an affair to convoke counties and harass the Legislature ? Why is the whole press of the country to be moved, and the abstrusest theories to be waked from the depths of intellect, before a ploughman is to be suffered to pay 20s. yearly for his quarter acre of potatoes and cabbages ? What would be thought of such a controversy in the neighbouring nations ? In France, the Reforme observes, that an idea may be formed of the number of fractional parts into which property is divided by the following facts : —There are in France 5,205,411 properties on which the land-tax is rated at sums not exceeding sf. i 5,242,846 at from sf. to 100 f., and, in fine, there are 445,271 which exceed 100 f. Who would think of an allotment agitation there, where a man can get any quantity of land to his taste as readily as he can buy so many pounds of bread or ounces of coffee and sugar ? HERALD.—As the year draws to its close, as Cabinet Councils begin to assemble weekly, and as the period for the actual meeting of Parliament must soon be fixed, the attention of the public begins to he drawn to the question which usually follows : " And what will Parliament do when it meets ?" Under a weak and incapable Government this ques tion is generally asked with some degree of anxiety. A " squeezable Administration" may look forward with tolerable certainty to the application of " pres sure from without," and both its friends and its enemies must naturally regard with some disquietude the probable result of the squeezing process. It is one proof of the more firm and stable character of the present Government, that the one point to which men s minds seem just now to he directed, is, " What taxes are likely to be taken off ?" People have left off talking of " organic changes ;" the Chartists are almost extinct; the " suffrage movement" moves not; even the League is content to " look to the regis tration," and to anticipate great things from the Revising Barristers' Courts of October, 1845 ; no thing, in short, is now heard of, in the way of politics, but questions of finance and trade—Bra zilian sugar, the New Zealand Company, or the German Zollverein. And, as to Parliament, as we have already observed, the chief thing people seem to expect or desire at its hands, is, the passing of a good many railway Bills and the remission of a few of the taxes. Now, on the latter point, we are not going to dispute any proposition so entirely self-evident as that all taxes, in themselves, are " atrocious," " abomin able," and, above all, exceedingly unpleasant. But while all this is undeniable, the Government, be it Whig or Tory, may safely plead in its own excuse that it is called to administer the affairs of a nation which has undertaken in various ways to pay about fifty millions per annum ; and that one of its first duties evidently is, to see that means are found to meet this great annual liability. Hence it follows, that as the revenue, only lately recovered from the effects of Whig quackery, exhibits but a certain moderate surplus, that remission of taxation for which people are so eagerly looking can take place only within the limits so marked out. Do men gene rally desire the termination of the property-tax ? If they do, then are they not acting irrationally in assembling together in great numbers, to call for the remission of the duty on cotton, upon tea, and upon various other things now talked of? So much so, that we cannot help considering a meeting called to petition for the remission of this or that duty, to be, in effect, a meeting for the con tinuance of the property-tax. We do not for an in stant question the desirableness of the remission of the duty on raw cotton, on malt, or on tea. Nor can it be denied that the duty on insurances is one of a most objectionable character. Of all the various modes of internal taxation, this, perhaps, is the very worst. Now, we have no manner of doubt that it would give the greatest satisfaction to the Government, as well as widely extend their popularity, were it in their power to propose the extinction of, or a large reduction in, all these duties. But they must not, and they will not, follow in the steps of the Whigs, by reducing duties for popularity's sake, until the revenue proves inadequate to meet the public engagements, and a gradual but constant increase is obliged to be made in the nation's debt. What we desire, then, to urge upon all petitioners for, and all talkers about, these expected reductions of various duties, is, first to settle what they would have done with the property-tax. If they mean to expect its entire extinction, then it is perfectly unreasonable to look for anything beyond that. But if they are content to keep the property tax, provided the tax on cotton, on malt, or on tea is got rid of, then they ought very plainly and explicitly to say so. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 11 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10iii. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 421; and the exchange at Paris on London at shoe t being 25 it follows that gold is 0.59 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4841 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10i -d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 94 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 101, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer iu London than in llamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London it 110+ per cent., and the par of exchange between Eng , land and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.68 per cent. in favour of England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be added to the above difference. The brokers are making up their account for the settlement in the English market, which takes place on Thursday. Consols are at a degree of firmness which is not participated in by the other English securities. They are the only stock of any importance, th dividends of which, under the new arrangements, will be payable in January, and hence a special demand for them arises among the public. On the other hand, in the heavy stocks, sales have been effected on account of some Scotch firms, and the market for these is weaker. The quotation for Consols for Money and the Account is 1001, and the stock is felt to be somewhat scarce. Ales - ars. Rogers and Co., the parties upon whom the large robbery has been committed, have received this afternoon a letter from the Home-office, stating that Sir J. Graham has recommended to her Majesty the free pardon of any accomplice engaged in this transaction, so as to lead to the apprehension of the others. Among the methods proposed for enabling the issuing bankers to evade the late banking Act, mentioned under this head, was one in which a "letter of credit" was to be the instrument employed. It has been assumed that this method is legal, but a reference to the Stamp Act (55 George 111., c. 184) shows that it is more than pro bable that letters of credit, if unstamped, are liable to the same penalties as post-dated cheques. The words of the Act are these :—" All receipts given by any banker or bankers, or other person or persons, for money received, which shall entitle, or be intended to entitle, the person or persons paying the money, or the bearer of such receipts, to receive the like sum from any third person or persons, shall be deemed and taken to be an inland bill within the meaning of this schedule, and be liable to the same duty as on a bill of exchange for the like sum payable to bearer or order." If these words include "letters of credit," which it seems they do, it will be well for bankers to use caution before they em ploy them as a substitute for notes payable on demand. The state of the Stamp Law, with respect to bankers, seems to be in a vague and unsatisfactory state ' • and that useful publication, the Bankers' Magazine, has lately been collecting information connected with the subject, of which the above is a part. The other plan of evading the law, by issuing bills at sight for fixed amounts to the partner or cashier of a bank, with an endorsement in blank, is considered by a correspondent as likely to expire of its own ac cord. A large_number of them soon find their way into the hands of rival bankers and others, who specially en • dorse them to their London agents, and these iu a few days return upon the hands of the first issuers, totally uieless for the purpose of re-issue. As it is not generally known that Bank of England notes are a legal t en d er i n S cot l an d and Ireland, a Trea• sury minute, dated the 12th of November, 1836, to which our attention has been called, is highly valuable. It is there expressly declared as the opinion of the law officers of the Crown, that the Act 3 and 4 William IV., c. 98, applies to Scotland and Ireland, so as to make Bank of England notes of 5/. and upwards a legal tender in those countries. This opinion leaves the question open as to whether the Bank of England could issue 1/. notes in Scotland and Ireland, where that low denomination is not prohibited. It is said that some of the Scotch banks have been so much impressed with the belief that the Bank of England has this power, that they have made application for 11. notes to that institution. These, we understand, were at once rejected. In the Gazette of last Friday was inserted a return of the average atmunt of the circulation of notes in Scot land and Ireland for the four weeks ending the 9th of November. This return is published under the 4th and sth Victoria, cap. 50 (the Act passed in 1841), which formerly included the average of the circulation of the Bank of England, the private and joint-stock banks in England, and the Scotch and Irish _banks. The return published in the Gazettes of September 27 and October 25 omitted the Bank of England return, as being now unnecessary, but contained the averages of the English private and joint-stock banks in the usual form. The present return omits these latter items also, thus leaving only the Scotch and Irish banks. The increase in Scotland, according to the last return, as Ireland compared during with the the same p previous er i n d it return,ia 675,036!. With and in With regard to the circulation of the Bank of Eng land, published in the same Gazette of last Friday, there appears to be a very slight difference from the previous week. The circulation of notes in the hands of the public being 20,580,750!., showing an increase of about 24,0001.

Stevenson Dalglish was entertained at a public dinner, by the subscribers to the Wellington Statue, recently erected in Glas gow, and others, " who were desirous to testify to that gentleman the deep sense which they entertain of the valuable services he has rendered to the city and the west of Scotland, by the untiring zeal, ability, perseverance, and courtesy, which he all along displayed as Convener of the Committee of Sub scribers, and which so greatly contributed to bring the undertaking to a successful completion." The dinner took :place in the Trades' Hall, and was at tended by fully three hundred gentlemen, who may be said to have comprised the very elite f our com munity. The Earl of Glasgow filled the chair, sup ported on the right by Mr. Dalglish, the guest of the evening, the Rev. Dr. M'Leod, Sir James Camp bell, Mr. Lockhart, M.P., &c., &c. After the usual loyal toasts, the Noble Chairman said—lt is with the greatest pleasure that I now rise to propose the next toast—the health of our worthy friend and honoured and respected guest, Mr. Dal glish.—(Applause, which lasted for several minutes.) Gentlemen, though the especial purpose of our meet ing this evening is to express our high approbation of the conduct of Mr.Walglish, as the Convener of the Committee of the Wellington Statue, and to offer him a mark of our respect and gratitude for the great ex ertions he has made during its progress, and until its completion—(Hear, hear)—though this, I say, is the avowed object of our meeting, I think we may be fairly permitted somewhat to exceed the prescribed limit and take a more general view of a character, which the more it is examined the more it will be found worthy of our respect and admiration. Gentlemen, as Convener of the Committee of the Wellington Statue, Mr. Dalglish had an arduous task imposed upon him ; and no man could possess more eminently those qualities necessary for bringing that task to an efficient termixation. The difficulties he had to contend with were numerous, and at times vexatious ; but he met them firmly, tem perately, and with a conciliation and courtesy well calculated to disarm opposition. lie never permitted any adverse circumstance to discourage him in car rying out the object he had in view—the comple tion of that statue, and its erection in the most fa vourable site. That has been accomplished, and though delay has occurred, which was inevitable and unforseen, it was, we know, the result purely of ac cident, and still it has been erected in a shorter time than is usually necessary for the completion of works of this description. I beg, therefore, to propose the health of Mr. Dalglish, our honoured guest, and from the feelings you have already displayed, I know y ou will receive it in Ole manner so well deserves.

DREADFUL OCCURRENCE AT A BRICK-KlLN.—Yester day evening Mr. Baker held an inquest, at the London Hospital, on the body of Jeremiah Cray, aged thirty five years. Mr. William Webb, of No. 10, Albion-road, Daiston, tailor, deposed that about nine o'clock on Thursday night, whilst at supper with his family, he was alarmed by hearing cries of distress pre eeeding from a field at the rear of his house. He immediately went out and discovered the deceased standing with his arms out stretched, having the whole of his clothes in a complete blaze from head to feet, and calling for " God's sake to help him." Witness, with the assistance of a policeman and a young man, dragged the burning remnants off his body till he was completely naked. Witness then took off his own coat and wrapped it over deceased, and with assistance he was carried to a chemist's shop in Queen's row, from whence he was subsequently conveyed in a cab to the above Hospital, but, owing to the density of the fog, nearly three hours elapsed before they reached that establishment. The deceased, whilst in the chemist's shop, was quite sensible, and said that hawing had a penny given him he bought some potatoes, and had pro ceeded to the brick-kiln, near which he was found, for the purpose of roasting them, when he was overpowered by the vapour, and, falling asleep, his clothes became ignited. He further stated thi.t he had no home or friends, being quite destitute. The house-surgeon said the deceased, when admitted, was burned in a most dreadful manner. He lingered until the next morning Verdict—" Accidental death." SUICIDE IN A STATION- HOUSE.—Yesterday afternoon Mr. Higgs held an inquest at the Chequers, Tothill street, Westminster, on the body of Sarah Edensaw, aged 34, who destroyed herself in the New-way station house of the B division, on the night of Saturday last. Abraham Wright, police-constable 99 B, deposed that about a quarter before eleven o'clock on the night of Sa terday last he took her to the station-house, and charged her with being drunk and disorderly. She was locked up, as she had been before hundreds of times. To the best of his belief deceased had been drunk for the last seven weeks, and she told him herself that she had net been in bed for three weeks. She occasionally worked at the Nag's Head, and during the interval of the house being closed and the opening in the morning she would go and sit on the pavement in the Almon'y and smoke a pipe. William Glitnpson, police-constable 162 B, stated that he locked the deceased up in the cell of the station-house shortly before eleven o'clock. On visiting her at a quarter before twelve he found her hanging by her apron from the top of the door which leads from the cell into the yard. He cut her down instantly, and she was at once conveyed to Westminster Hospital, where bleeding was attempted, but without effect, as she was quite dead. Verdict—The deceased hung herself whilst in a state of intoxication. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.—Last evening an inquiry was gone into before Mr. Higgs, at the Union, Jermyn street, to investigate the circumstances attending the death of Edward Arthur May, Esq., aged 24, of 17, Duke-street, St. James's, the son of Sir Stephen May, Bart., who put a period to his existence. The first witness examined was Charles Belzoni, the landlord of the house, 17, Duke-street, who stated that deceased's aunt had taken a furnished bed-room at his house, and the deceased arrived on Friday last, having just come from Madras. The last time witness saw him alive was when he came home at eleven o'clock on Sun day night ; he asked for, and was supplied with some bread, butter, and porter. On the following morning deceased's cousin, Mr. Brinsley de Courcy Nixon, came about half-past ten o'clock to call him up, when he found the door of his room fastened on the inside. He had not done so before. An entrance was effected by a door which communicated with another room, and on merely looking into the room and seeing some stains of blood on the bed, witness immediately ran and fetched Mr. Miller, a surgeon, who, on examination, said he had been dead several hours. The manner of the de ceased gentleman was very strange, and witness was of opinion he was not right in his mind. He was found undressed in the bed with his throat cut, and he had evidently inflicted the wound with the table knife, which had been sent to him with bread and butter (the knife was produced covered with blood). His clothes were much the worse for wear. A letter signed by the deceased was produced, di rected to the Custom-house agent, to clear his luggage from the barque Mary Anne, by which he arrived from Madras. Robert Jaques, captain of the bakue Mary Anne, said, from his conduct at Madras and during the voyage, it was evident he was not right in his head. He was dismissed from the Madras army by the sentence of a general court-martial. He was very melancholy during the voyage. Brinsley de Courcy Nixon, of, 20, Holles-street, Ca vendish-square, a cousin of deceased, said he was for merly a Lieutenant in the Hon. East India Company's army of Madras. He dined with witness on Sunday, when be appeared to have a very wild, vacant, and rest less look. The jury returned a verdict of "Insanity." INCREASE OF THB VALUE OF SALMON FISHINGS ON TILE TWEED.—The fishings on the Tweed at Eden mouth, belonging to John Waldie, Esq., of Ilendersyde Park, and which not many years ago only brought the annual rent of 21L, have been let within these few days to Mr. Scruton, in the county of Durham, for 2101., being an increase of 189/. per annum. From this ex traordinary rise of rent some idea may be formed of the anxiety manifested by sporting gentlemen to secure the right of fishing for salmon in the Tweed, and enjoy an amusement which attracts many distinguished indivi duals to our locality during the season for angling.— Kelso Chronicle. The Refuge for the Houseless Poor, .which has been opened for several years in the City, will be ready for the reception of objects as soon as the severe weather shall have set in. It is the practice of the Committee to throw open the doors of three asylums for houseless poor in the City of London at the latter end of Novem ber. It is but fair to state, that the demands upon the funds of the Committee for the last year's expense, in curred by the influx of paupers i n t o th e Ci ty o f L on d on , has reduced their means of affording assistance very considerably.

SHIP. ~Q`-~G-~-z'z--11 husiasm, the Colonel MuRE, of Caldwell, proposed the health of the author of that monument to our greatest military hero, which now occupied such a prominent place in the centre of the city. There must be many present who were more able to speak on this subject than himself; but he could, at all events, claim the merit of impartiality. It would be false delicacy to pass over the circumstances attending the selection ef the Baron Marochetti, the distinguished artist ef the monument ; for it was well known that it hall been the subject of great difference of opinion, of contro versy, and of much bitterness amongst the inhabitants of this city. The Committee must have been strictly impartial in asking him to propose this toast, for he had not been a member of the Wellington statue Committee—he had not taken any part in the controversy, although he had been in favour ef the general principle supported by those who 011.- posed the Baron Marochetti's selection, on the ground that they should prefer native artists for na tive works of art. But he would freely say, that whatever difference of opinion there might he ve existed, as to the propriety of the Baron's selectiee, there could be no difference of opinion as to the practical results of that selection. He felt convinced that there was no man of taste, or no man who was in the habit of looking to the works of net simil ar t o that in front of the Exchange, who would not coin. tide with the opinion of the Chairman, when he stated that it would bear comparison with the greatest works of the kind in Europe.— (Great applause.) He might be permitted to offer one or two criticisms on the statue, and, in doing so, they would allow him to remind them that there was no such thing as per fection in human works ; and even though, by the dispensation . of Pre:v.:fence, such a thing as perfection in a Nven'e of art was at taieed, it would just be the more difficult to bring. any person to say that it was perfect. He was afraid that, in proportion to the completeness and ex cellence of a work of art, the more was it exposed to the rigour of petty criticism ; and just from the sim ple consideration, that where a work had two or three obvious defects, they were palpable to every one, and • every one was gratified at being able to detect them. But when a work was so complete that it afforded no broad defects for the animadversions of the critics, then they considered it their duty to find fault with every petty portion of it. He had frequently ex perienced the truth of this in reference to the statue by Marochetti. The first time he walked up the street to survey it, he was assured there was nothing wrong but a little about the tail; then when he looked to the front, he was told there was some thing peculiar about the head. Then some other body would say that they had no fault with the head or the tail, but there was something not quite correct about the quarters. For himself, he had to say that these objections were vague ; hut, as a whole, that the statue was a most magnificent work, and this was the highest eulogium he could offer to this splendid effort of the artist, the Baron Marochetti Colonel Ildure then briefly traced the personal history of the noble sculptor--concluding by stating that the Baron en joyed the advantage of combining much of the chaste ness and delicacy of the Italian school with the spirit and vivacity of the French. The toast was drunk with great applause. Professor Hue, in a neat speech, proposed " The health of Sheriff Alison, and the Committee of Sub scribers to the IVeliington Testimonial." Sheriff ALISON, in his own name, and in the name of the other gentlemen associated with him in the Committee, returned thanks for the honour which had been done them. Various other toasts were given. In all fully 300 were prE sent at the festival, and the meeting selarated a little after eleven o'clock. THE LATE TRAGICAL EVENT AT MILE-END. _ OPENING OF THE LETTERS. The doubts that prevailed in the vicinity of this melan choly occurrence as to the actual poison with which the yot:ng couple had destroyed themselves, were finally set at rest by the post mortent examination which the bodies underwent in the course of Monday afternoon by Dr. LethE by, an eminent professor of chemistry at the Lon don Ilospitul. The scent of prussic acid was immediately detected on their bcingopened, and on the contents of the stomach being carefully analy,ed yesterday at the above Institution, upwards of half an ounce of the pure acid was extracted. From inquiries instituted, it appears that Duckett purchased it at Batley's, in Fore-street, Cripple gate, having procured it by repr esen ti ng hi mse l f to hive been sent by a druggist who deals with the firm. 2he bottles, which were found on the mantel-piece , and which contained it, were labelled "Scheild's Prussia Acid." According to the request of the deceased, inseribtAl on the letter found in the apartment, and directed to Miss Unman, in Lucas-street, it %as &livered in the coun:a of Monday afternoon at her residence, and opent d in tile presence of Mr. Porter, the constable of Stepney. On the envelope being broken open it was found to ► on tiin two epistles, both of which a ere addressed to that young lady, and written in the hal w thing of Duckett. One was a piece of poetry in twenty-four verses, and is a beautiful piece of penmanship. The title is, "The Last Lay of Two Broken Hearts, written and composed by C. A. D.," executed in the illustrated style in old Eng lish, with a variety of inks. It bears the date of Nov. 8, but it has evidently been written as far back as Sep tember, which date was erased, but which is still par tially discernible. The theme shows a wild paroxysm of love on his part, manifesting the most fervent attach ment to the ill-fated girl. He bids adieu to his parents and all other relations, and prays forgiveness. Poverty had blasted his prospects, and " Since Fate had marr'd their earthly bliss, they would seek an early grave." The same wild strain is displayed throughout the whole piece.-- His Lizzy begging that his grave might be her grave also." The language of it shows the unfortunate writer to have been a most intellectual young man, but the extravagant outbursts of his passion which it displays proves, almost beyond a doubt, that his mind was in some waylaffected. The second is written in the saute superior style, and bears the date of the day, last Sunday, on which he effected his fatal putposts. The tenor of the letter fully confirms the supposition that has been entertained amongst the friends and relatives, that he had prevailed upon the miserable girl to forfeit her existence with his. It states " that ere she (Miss Chapman) had received that epistle they would be in the sweet sleep of death." Fate had marred his bliss in this world--he was pre- pared to leave it, and she, for whom he had lived, had told Mai "If you die without me you will be my mur derer !" and, to use the words of Lady Jane Grey, " Death had no terrors." Both productions had deep black borders round them. Mr. Baker, the Coroner for East Middlesex, has ap. pointed the inquest on the bodies to take place this evening. ALLEGED MUTINY ON BOARD On Monday two well-looking sailors, timed William Whittaker and James Elliott, were brought before Mr. Rushton, at the police-court, Liverpool, t n a charge of having been guilty of mutinous conduct on board an American vessel, called the Jersey Tar. John M`Cane deposed that he was master of the ves sel in question, and that while she was lying at Trieste the prisoners struck him and the mate repeatedly on the quarter-deck. He cautioned them, but they shook and knocked him from side to side, heedless of all r. mon strances. Seeing that he bad no control on board the ship, he thought to go ashore and seek the assistance of the Consul, but they prevented him from leaving, for, when he jumped into the boat, Whittaker jumped in after him, and by means of a rope thrown by the other prisoner (Elliott) drew the boat back again to tilt. vas. sel. H He (the captain) then jumped into his own boat, and having been sculled by the cabin-boy to land, he stated his case to the Consul, who said that, as he was bound to Cephalonia, there would be men-of-ear there, and that he would be sure of having all put to rights at that port. The next morning the Consul had the pri soners taken into custody by two officers, who placed them under lock and key, in the hold of the Jers.-y Tar. On arriving at Cephalonia there were no men-of war there, and the vessel was chartered for Liverpool. After she had been chartered, the prisoners were taken oa shore, and kept in confinement until such time as the vessel was ready for sea, and then they were delivered back. They were brought from Cephalonia to Liver pool in custody, one of them at a time being allowed to come oa deck. The prisoner Whittaker entered into a long defence. He sal that on Sunday, the Ist of September, the cap tain gave him a dollar, and allowed him to go ashore at Trieste, where he met the mate of the vessel, between whom and himself some words and a fight ensued. When he (the prisoner) next went on board the vessel the mate struck him across the eye with a stick. He then went to a doctor and had his eye dressed, and, in a few days after, he asked the captain for his discharge. The cap tain promised him the discharge, but in the course of some conversation that ensued h ave him a blow with his fist which tumbled him down t he hatches. The captain subsequently took a er, w!:ar, aid threatened to knock his (the prisoner's) brain., ; he also threatened to get his pistol and shoot him. Then Elliott and himself were taken into custody, the captain giving them a pair of handcuffs, and saying " there 14 as a pair of gloves for them ;" and they were kept in confinement for nine— teen days on bread end water. The prisoner concluded by holding up a piece of black bread to the Court, as a sample of that upon which himself and his comranion had been fed in confinement. The prisoner Elliott also made a statement similar in e ff ec t, except that he denied that any blows had been struck by either the captain or himself, although the former had on one occasion taken off his coat to box him. The captain denied that Whittaker's story was true, and said that he should be able to produce the mate and two British captains to-day to prove the truth of the charge, 1117. Rushton accordingly ordered the prisoners. to l remanded until today, and remarked that it , Nas u r y grave case.—Liver pool Times of yesterday, A FACT.—ill the window of the S ervan t s ' Red. giAry-office in Wells, may be seen--" Place wanted, by a young woman, as cook, in t'espectable when' a pious footman is kept., of High Church principles." , -f.-P-',-4 with the most perfect enti PRICE sd. o at ; too II to' rY `l.' ti' ,
