For the last two years I have been labouring under a complication of disorders an my head and stomach. I think I may venture to say I have not had an hour's cessation of pain during the time. My sense of smelling was entirely gone, and the most agreeable perfume or the Most intolerant stench were equally indifferent to me. I have had the advice of several surgeons and medical men, both in this town anti others, but without the least benefit, and 1 ad dispaired of ever again regaining my health, in fact my life was becoming burdensome to me, until I fortunately heard of the many cures which your valuable Pills had effected. I purchased a box of Mr. Woodward, druggist, and before I had taken the whole I was completely cured, and have never experienced the slightest symptoms of its return. I have r ecommended them, and shall do so, as I feel I cannot do sufficient for the benefit I have received.—l am, Gentlemen, your obliged Arid grateiul servant, " HENRY NASH.

ADVERTISEMENTS INSERTED in ALL THE THREE PAPERS, Morning, Noon, and Night, thereby insuring a TOWN and COUNTRY CIRCULATION, a QOCIETY FOR THE EMANCIPATION OF INDUSTRY.—This Society has been formed for the purpose of diffusing sound information respecting the CAUSES of the PRE SENT DISTRESS, and the MEANS through which a REMEDY Is to be found, with a view to RELIEVE the INDUSTRIAL CLASSES from the weight by which their energies have been so long oppressed. It is well known that in consequence of an insufficient remuneration for their exertions the productive portions of the community have long been unable to obtain even a moderate share of the comforts of life, and that an almost incredible amount of mental, moral, and physical evil has been the result. The Committee, therefore, earnestly appeal to all who take an interest in the welfare of their fellow-men for aid to carry out their designs. The time is fit, the circumstances most opportune, and the achievement of their object would procure a benefit for the community alike permanent and extensive. By order of the Committee, B. CLARKE, Secretary. The Address of the Society, and every information respecting it, may be obtained at the Offices, 22, Parliament-street, and Tracts and Publications may be had of Mr. Samuel Clarke, 13, Pall-mall East ; Mr. Hastings, Law Bookseller and Publisher, 13, Carey-street, Lin coln's Inn ; and of Mr. Pelham Richardson, Bookseller and Pub lisher, Conthill ; by whom Subscriptions will be received.

A public meeting of English Catholics was held yesterday, at one o'clock, at the Freemasons' Tavern, fur the purpose of consider ing the propriety of addressing her Majesty on the subject of the conduct of the Law officers of the Crown in Ireland in excluding Roman Catholics from the jury on the State Trials in that country. The room was crowded long before the commencement of the pro ceedings. _ _ _ On the platform we observed Lord Camoys, Lord Stourton, the Hon. C. Langdale, P. Howard, Esq., M.P. (Carlisle), the Hon. Sir D. Vavasour, Bart., P. C. Maxwell, Esq., Charles Eyston, Esq., J. Tempest, Esq , J. Townley, Esq., W. William, Esq., J. A. Cooke. Esq., E. Jerningham, Esq., R. Berkeley, Esq. (of Spetcheley), Jas. Eyre. Esq., John Selby, Esq., Geo. Morgan, Esq., Geo. Basil Eyston, Esq., the Rrv. Dr. Magee, Revds, Sisk, Moore, Harring ton, Price, Cotter, Toursel, Coyle, Telford, Browne, Rymer, Hunt, Hearne, O'Neil, and several other distinguished Catholic Noble men and Gentlemen. At one o'clock, on the motion of Lord Steurton, seconded by the Hon. Mr. Langdale, Lord Camoys was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN then called upon the Secretary to read the requisi. tion, which was signed by 104 requisitionists, calling the meeting, which having been done, The SECRETARY stated, that among the requisitionists appeared the names of eight Peers, and the adhesion of the Earl of Traquair had since been received. The CHAIRMAN then read a letter from the Earl of Shrewsbury, expressing his indignation at the insult offered to the Catholics by the conduct of the Government In striking off the names of all Catholics from the jury panel, and protesting against the conduct of the Government to the Catholics.—(Leud cheers.) The Noble Chairman then alluded to the Hon. Edward Petre, whose absence from England he regretted, as he was sure that had he been in the kingdom that gentleman would have been present. He deeply regretted the necessity they were under of calling these meetings. It was a disgrace to the Government that they were so obliged, Ireland had already spoken out.—(Cheers. ) 324 meet ings had been held up to 27th January. The Scotch Catholics had spoken, Zn I now the English Catholics were called on to do the same.—(Cheers.) This was no meeting of the Catholic Insti tute, nor was it a repeal meeting. It was a meeting to protest against the injustice of the Government, and to express their sym pathy with their insulted Irish Catholicbrethren. Then, with regard to the lost list, he believed that design and not accident had caused that list to be dropped.—(Cheers.) The conduct of the Govern ment proved it. He did not deny the legal right of the Govern. ment to strike off the names, but he denied their moral right to do so.—(Cheers.) It was an injustice.—(Cheers.) The Governmen• owered itself, by this act from a Government to the low level of a malicious prosecutor.—(Cheers.) Could they only hope to ob tain a conviction by having a jury of Tories, Anti. Repeaters, and Protestants. It was an injustice to the jurymen themselves. If they returned a verdict of guilty, the verdict would lose all moral effect ; if they returned a verdict of not guilty, they would be at tacked by their own party.—(Cheers.) He was not surprised at the conduct of the Government. It was what he had expected from them. He had never entertained those expectations of fair-dealing from the Tories, which others had.—(Cheers.) They were un changed and unchangeable, and there was no hope of justice from them for the Catholics of Ireland.—( Cheers.) When Emancipa tion passed, the gratitude of the Catholics was unlimited; but the moment they proclaimed that Protestant ascendancy was to Le the basis of the Government, that moment of course they lost the con fidence of the Catholics, and justly lost it.—(Cheers.) The decla ration made in Parliament by one of her Majesty's Ministers, that conciliation had gone to its utmost limits, was not likely to conci liate the Catholics of Ireland. Her Majesty declared in her answer to the address of the Dublin Corporation, that the just demands of her people would be listened to. Yes, they knew to whom they were, and ought to be grateful—to him who struggled for them when it was thought Emanci pation was unattainable.—(Loud cheers.) Yes, they ought to be grateful to the Catholics of Ireland, and they ought to be grateful, above all, to Daniel O'Connell.—(Loud cheers and waving of hats.) The Chairman then read an extract from the Dublin Review, in answer to a publication which called him a gross and clumsy deceiver : " For forty years has this gross, clumsy, open, impudent de ceiver' been living among them, mingling in their festivities, pre siding at their assemblies, kneeling at their altars; instructing, advising, guiding, impelling, restraining; standing upoa an emi nence, with the searching gaze of a mighty empire fixed for ever upon him ; every word and every gesture, every action and every omission recorded and canvassed, in the high courts of law, in the high court of Parliament, in the high court of public opinion, in the high court of the press, the most powerful press in the world, by eloquent men, by learned men, by acute men; by the lower orders of society, by the middle orders, by the upper orders; by artisans, by merchants, by lawyers, by parsons, by proud barons, by mighty kings ; in all these, by all these, has this being been accused and tried. For forty years has this trial been going on, and the first generation of accusers, and witnesses, and judges has passed away, and left room for another and another ; and, after all this, the conviction is yet to come. His bitterest enemies have borne testi mony in his favour; and they who would grind him as wheat, or burn him in a furnace, have admitted and maintained that he is a sincere man, an honest man, and all—all proclaim that he is a great man. They who know him best, whose interests arc chiefly identified with his corruptible virtue, one of the purest hierarchies in the world one of the most labori. ous, virtuous, simple.minded priesthoods in the world, and seven millions of the Irish people, have placed in his hands, without a shadow of misgiving, their dearest earthly hopes. Nor have they done so precipitately, blindly. They have tried hint long, they have trusted him long, and he has never once betrayed them, and therefore they trust him again. He has the blessing of the Church, he has theprayers of the people, he has the confidence of both. Profane history has no example of this kind." He knew not the individual who composed this passage, but he envied him his eloquence, and the justness of his praise. When there was a hint to endow :he Catholic clergy, the Catholic hier archy repudiated the offer. He, for one, agreed with them in that refusal—(Hear, hear)—and he would use all his exertions in Parlia ment to prevent such an endowment, if it was attempted. This was a meeting of sympathy with the Irish Catholics, and he was glad that their English brethren came forward in such a manner. For him self, he hoped he would be always found at his post.—(Cheers.) Lord STOURTON was called on to propose the first resolution. He said he was almost a jubilarian in the service of his Roman Catholic brethren.—(Cheers.) He saw those who had assisted them one by one decay, but he, though old, was a living witness to refute the calumny that Catholies were not to be bound by their oaths.—(Cheers.) His late excellent friend the Duke of Norfolk would not pass the rail by which he might enter Parliament, and he cast his staff upon the ground rather than enter that place, because he would not take a certain oath, He would not enter it himself, because there was an oath upon it--(Cheers.) They would not endure to have their privileges abridged in the House of Parliament, because they were Catholics. If they could not vote upen every measure that came before them, he would consider it a dishonour and not an honour, to be a Member of the House of Peers. Such was the opinion of the first Peer of the realm, the late Duke of Norfolk. It' he abstained from voting on questions relating to the Estahlished Church, he did so from delicacy, but not in conse quence of any oath he had taken. He would never submit to be inferior to any other member of the House of Peers. He would, as Lord Grey said, stand by his order. The Chairman, in his able and clear remarks, had anticipated all that he intended to say. He would now proceed to state with pain the consequences of the doctrine that Catholics were not to be believed on their oaths. If it were true that the Catholics were not bound by an oath, then were the foundations of their holy religion de stroyed. It would sap their belief in Christianity itself. Such an opinion might indeed proceed from the temple of reason, but not from the temple of Christianity. He would say, as Mr. Shaw said, with regard to the Bible—Trust not our oaths, or, " to your tents, 0 Israel."—(Cheers.) The Catholic religion was spread over the world, and if it were true that Catholics were not to be. lieved on their oaths, then they were perjurers over the whole world. Let Catholics and Protestants quarrel with each other on the point, but let them not weaken the foundations of their coin. most religion, and their common belief in the sacred volume. Let them call on her Majesty to protect not their, but her and their common Christianity. The Noble Lord concluded amid loud cheers, and proposed the resolution, which was read by the Secretary. The SECRETARY read the resolutit n, which was as follows : "That the abolition of civil distinctions on account of religion, was the avowed object of thosu who introduced and understood the principle of the Ast for the Emancipation of the Roman Catholics." The Reverend Mr. HARRINGTON then addressed the meeting. He paid a high compliment to the past and present exer tions of Lord Stourton, and expressed his satisfaction at seeing so many assembled on the present occasion. He alluded to the hopes that were entertained at the time the Emancipation Act was passed ; the gates of the Lords and Commons were pre. viously closed, but one man with a strong arm came to them and broke open the portal—that man was Daniel O'Con nelll—(lmmense cheering, the whole assembly rising en masse.) They were now open, but still there was a barrier; they might be Privy Councillors, or Membeis of the House of Commons, but they could not be Jurors. He noticed the conduct of the Irish Attor. ney-General in severe terms; he seemed to have undertaken to teach the young counsel of the Irish bar, " how to shoot."— (Laughter. )—A Catholic Juryman would have been justified in asking if the Attorney-General's pistol was registered. —Laughter.)—For Trial by Jury, he had done his best to substitute the trial by battle.--(Hear, hear.) He concluded by saying, that if a juryman was not to be believed on his oath, neither was a witness ; it was their duty to come forward unanimously to repel the accusation. He seconded the resolution. The resolution was put from the chair and carried. The Hon. CHARLES LANGDALE moved the second resolution. He should confine himself strictly to the business of the meeting, and carefully abstain from the least word that could be for a mo ment deemed a reflection on the members of the jury then sitting in Dublin. Were he to do so, he should be guilty of the very in justice of which they had to complain. The resolution he had to propose was the following :—" That the officers of the Crown, in striking off every Catholic from the panel in the trial pending in the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland, have raised in the Court of Justice itself a well-grounded su•picion of the violation of the Emancipation Act, and have thereby insulted our religion, and en. dangered our rights by an implied imputation upon our fidelity to our oath.." He then gave a detailed account of the manner in which the panel was drawn up, Including the suspicious loss of sixty.three names, and the striking off of the Catholics who hap pened to be left on the list. The circumstances are already well known to the public. The subsequent allegation that they were struck off because they were Repeaters was untrue, as, though some of them were Repeaters, none of them had ever taken any active part in the agitation. Three were not on the books of the Association at all, two never attended any repeal meeting, or ex. pressed any opinion upon it, and one was adverse to it. These, therefore, were struck off for no reason but that they were Catholics, and the whole body must feel it as an insult. He had been told, happily, not by a Catholic but a Protestant, that they ought not to interfere at all. They were Irish Catholics, and therefore they, as Englishmen, had nothing to do with them.— (" No, no," and cries of •' We've done that long enough.") What would have been their state in England now but for the Catholics of Ireland ?—(lmmense cheering, and three cheers for O'Connell.) He wished he could think they were indebted to the justice of England for their rights; but he had the words of the Minister of the Crown, that it was not a sense of justice but a sense of neces. say; it was granted to the united voice of millions.—(Cheers.) What was the legal disqualification for sitting on a jury? Being a con victed felon; that wag the legal disqualification. What then was the inference? That they were no more to be believed than con vie ed felons, And were they tamely to sit down under this imputation.—(" No, no," and cheers.) As far as the press c►,uld bear the accounts of the trial, this imputation had been circulated. And one portion of the press had stated that which the Government perhaps did not dare do; the Morning Herald—(Groans) —justified the conduct of the Government; it said it was right, because, had one Catholic been left on the jury, he would have immediately received notice ftam his spiritual superior that it was his duty to acquit the traversers,—(" Oh, oh, and shame.") It was not the THE SUN i s Published EVERY MORNING at FIVE O'CLOCK, in Time for the EARLY TRAINS and TOWN DELIVERY ; a SECOND EDITION (Evening Sun) is Published iu Time for the AFTERNOON TRAINS, ONE CHARGE. Crown solicitor who was to be charged with this insult—it was not even the Attorney-General—he charged it directly on the Govern ment by whom he was appointed, as from kis previously expressed opinions it was known that he could hardly have acted otherwise. The Rev. Mr. SssK seconded the resolution. He said that this was not the first time the Irish Attorney-General had struck out the names of Roman Catholics as such from the jury panel. But in fact it was not an uncommon thing in Ireland. It was only a short tir.:e ago that a prisoner in the county of Monaghan was actually tried by three successive juries, before a verdict was obta ned suitable to the wishes of the pro. ecutors. Was this state of things to last? —(Cries of " No, no.") He hoped not The Roman Catholics of Ireland were looked upon in England as beings of an inferior race. Why it was become common in this country to stigmatise the Roman Catholic priests of Ireland as surpliced ruffians.—(Hear, hear.) He was there to proclaim that a more hard-working, moral, or enlightened set of men, t'id not exist in the world than the Roman Catholic priests of Ireland. It was said, in this country, that the people of Ireland would never think of their wrongs if O'Connell did not tell them of them. — (Cheers.) Thank God they had an O'Connell.—(Cheers.) He had toiled for forty years in their behalf, and he was not now to be put down.—(Loud cheers.) Could any Irishman sit calmly and con. template the bare possibility of O'Connell being immured in a dun,ieon.—(Loud cheers.) No doubt that every effort would yet be made to bri g about such a result. He could not sit down without congratulating the English Catho lics upon their having come so manfully and spiritedly for. ward to resent the insult which had been cast upon their brethren in Ireland. With these observations he begged to second the resolution. The resolution was then put and carried amidst loud cheers. Mr. P. Howasn, M.P., rose to propose the next resolution. He said they had seen the great patadium of British liberty assailed —thoy had seen thesacred right of trial by jury. hallowed as it was t y the name of Alfred, violated by the late course taken by her Majesty's Government on the State trials in Ireland. If such a course had been pursued in the metropolis of Ireland, what an awfu: example would it be to the dependencies of the British Crown, where of course public opinion was not so powerful as at home. The r. solution he had to propose was as follows :—" That the fol. lowing address, founded on these resolutions, be circulated for sig. nature, and presented to her most Gracious Majesty, at an early period, by the Noble Chairman, and such other Catholic Noblemen and Gentlemen as may please to attend."—(Cheers.) T:ie address was to the following effect :—" We, your Majesty's du' ful and loyal subjects, professing the Roman Cathclic religion, strongly impressed with the importance of the principle sanctioned and established on the passing of the Emancipation Act, that our religion should nu longer be a bar to our hall and free enjoyment of those civil rights and privileges of which we bad so long been dep, ived under unjust and erroneous imputations on its tenets, cannot but view with extreme jealousy the late act of the legal advisers of your Majesty's Government in Ireland, u hers by all Roman Catholics were excluded from the jury list. We, therefore, humbly presume, in presenting this, our loyal address, to our Majesty, to protest against this their act, being construed into a pr eecdent for infringing on those rights and privileges which we consider ourselves equally entitled to, and justified to enjoy with any other class of your Majesty's subjects." Mr. EYSTON seconded the resolution, which, with the address, was carried unanimously. Mr. li OWA a D moved that the Noble Lord do now leave the chair, and that it be taken by Lord Stourton. Sir E VAVASOUR moved, and Mr. MAXWELL seconded, a reso lution of thanks to the Chairman; when the meeting separated, with thrte cheers for Daniel O'Connell. REFUGE for PAUPER LUNATICS. On Saturday the following colloquy took place between Mr. Rushton and Mr. Gray, one of the assistant-overseers, with re ference to the provision of food, care, and shelter for pauper luna. tics :—Mr. Rushton—There is a female in custody, named Hannah Haggerty, who is supposed to be insane, and she is insane. She was sent to you, and it appears there is no room in the asylum. She was sent to the workhouse; they refuse to take her in there, and they were quite right in refusing. Under these circumstances I call on you to provide food, shelter, raiment, and security for her. Mr. Gray_l believe they are bound to take her into the workhouse fur fourteen days. Mr. Rushton—No; the Act says that they cannot keep her longer than fourteen days, and that, if they keep her longer, they are liable to a fine. Mr. Gray—What, then, are we to do, sir? Mr. Rushton— You must take a place, unless you can get proper accom modation in a proper asylum. You must make some ar. rangement with asylums at a greater distance than in the imme diate vicinity if you cannot do so here, and, in the meantime, I shall call upon you to provide food, raiment, shelter, and security for Haggerty, she being a pauper and destitute. Mr. Gray— What are we to do with such persons as we sometimes come r.cross who have their throats cut ? Mr. Rushton—You must send them to the hospital; it has come to what I told you it would. Mr. Gray—The last returns respectiug lunatics show that there were from seven to ten thousand kept in workhouses. Mr. Rushton—All I can tell you is, that I shall not allow the dan gerous lunatics to be in the house longer than fourteen days. There is no accommodation for them, and they should not be there. The governor of the workhouse says, "my workhouse has no proper accommodatton for lunatics," and he is quite right. Mr. Gray—They won't take them in at Squires' or at Tuebrook. Mr. Rushton—Well, the parish authorities must take some place, for the Bridewell is no place for them. Mr. Gray—The Board gave me instrnctions to go to Ha3dock.lodgo, and see if there was any accommodation for them there. Mr. Parkinson—Haggerty is not a danger. ous lunatic. Mr. Rushton—l think the governor otthe workflows"- has Acercised a proper discretion. lam very glad of it, because it brings matters to a proper issue. lam sure whatever you, Mr. Gray, have to do will be done in a humane, considerate, and proper manner. I can bear my testimony to that, and I shall be glad if you can make any arrangement. You should bring before the Board the responsibility under which you will be placed unless some place is obtained. The parish authorities should immediately communicate with the county justices. The lunatic asylum at Lancaster is full. Why should they not have one at Newton, be tween the Salford and West Derby Hundreds, where the distance is shorter —only tiftcen miles ? Mr. Gray—They are going to have the Lancaster one enlarged. Mr. Rushton—Even so; you should communicate. You should write a letter to the county justices on the subject. The conversation here ended, and Mr. Gray with• drew'. Liverpool Albion. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. STANDARD.—The proceedings of the Houses of Parliament, last night, were various and interest ing; but they run to too great a length, and branch into too great a number of different subjects, to allow that in the crowded state of our columns we can even enumerate the several topics referred to. In the House of Commons Sir James Graham introduced a Bill for the Regu'ation of Factories. It seems to be a copy of the Bill of last session, omitting the education clauses ; the subject of education being, as the Right Hon. the Home Secretary observed, assigned to the generous rivalry of Churchmen and Dis senters, while the Bill will secure time for the children to be educated. We are not afraid of the result of the competition proposed, and we certainly prefer leaving the matter open, to the recognition of any special right to educate on the part of Dissenters. "Laissez faire" and the Church will do her duty, as has been already proved in this particular case. As to the still remaining provisions of the Bill, it is well to imitate Lord Ashley in withholding our opinions upon them, until the exact terms of them shall be in the hands of the public. Mr. Sharman Crawford made the motion, in a long and not very b:illiant, but temperate speech. Sir Robert Peel re plied at some length, and with much pleasantry, re citing a page or two of the huge dictionary of grievances compiled by the patriots of the last ten or twenty years, the whole of which dictionary must, as he showed, be gone through, according to the terms of Mr. Sharman Crawford's motion, before a shilling could be provided for the public service. It is re markable that Mr. Sharman Crawford, as well as his supporters, Messrs. Hume, Williams, &c., all agreed in very heartily abusing the reformed Parliament, and in placing far above it in the scale of merit the unreformed House of Commons —so faithfully has been verified Sir Robert Peel's prediction, that the time would come when he should have to de fend the Reform Bill of 1832 against the Reformers themselves. The reproach of persons like Mr. Shar man Crawford, Mr. Hume, Mr. Williams, Ste., &c., however, proves nothing against the Reform Bill ; it merely shows that there are men so perverse that no thing will content them. The fate of Mr Crawford's motion has been seen—it had 22 supporters. GLOBE.—The pressure upon our columns compels us to allude with great brevity to Mr. O'Connell's j address to the jury, which we have, of course, re ported at considerable length. Mr. O'Connell's cha racteristic, as a public speaker, consists in his marked adaptation of the topics and style of his speeches to the position and taste of the persons whom he I addresses. This admitted excellence in an orator, was especially prominent throughout the ad dress to which we allude. Without losing sight, for one moment, of the position in which he stood, but preserving throughout the entire speech the most marked respect both for the Court and jury, Mr. O'Connell maintained his legal right to do what he had done in pursuit of the object he sought to secure ; and justified that object (the repeal of the legislative union of the two coun tries), by a historical survey of the imperfect fulfil ment of the engagements entered into with Ireland as the bases of the union. The great merit of O'Con • nell', speech in the Dublin Court of Queen's Bench, on Monday, in our view, is the complete abandon ment of personal considerations by which it is marked, and the strong case it makes out in vin dication of the Repeal Association, on the grounds we have stated. This case it becomes the Govern ment to answer—not by seeking to " put down repeal, " by the incarceration of O'Connell and the leaders of the movement; but by applying them selv s to the improvement of the country, and by re lie ing the great mass of its population from the misery which presses upon them. This, and this alone, will " put down" agitation. This would re concile the people of Ireland to a union which, if properly carried out, would be a source of prosperity, and a bond of civil and social strength to both countries. BUSFEILD FERRAND, ESQ.—An action has been commenced against this gentleman, we believe at the in stance of the Anti-Corn-law Lea File, on account of a speech lie recently made. The action will be tried at the ensuing assizes.—Leeds Times. • its on the placed on the great lire.

A communication having been received here last week, that the Directors would open this railway to its ter. minus at Dover this day, agreeably to resolutions come to in Common-hall assembled, the inhabitants, with the Mayor and cot. poration at their head, got up a grand demonstration in celebration of the event; and, in order to cement the bonds of friendship he. tween England, France, and Belgium, invitations were sent to the authorities of Ostend, Calais, and Boulogne, to join them in the festivities. Invitations were also sent to the authorities and other inhabitants of Deal, Folkestone, and the other neighbouring towns, and many of our neighbours on either side of the Channel were in attendance. Yesterday afternoon the Deputy Mayor of Calais, and about a dozen of the leading men of that place, together with the excel:ent band of the National Guard of Calais, 31 in number, dressed in military uniform, arrived by her Majesty's packet the Beaver ; and this morning parties of visitors from east, west, north, and south, flocked into our ancient town. The fine band of the Ist or Kincs Dragoon Guards, stationed at Canterbury, were also present to give eclat to the scene. At 2 o'clock, the inhabitants and visitors began to assemble at the rallying point—the Ncw Bridge—to form themselves its the order of procession ; and at 3, they moved off to the railway ter. minus, the bands of music playing favourite airs. The procession reached the terminus about half past 3 o'clock, when the immense multitude, by this time about 6,000 strong, were arranged on each side of the rails at the temporary station, French and Eustis!' mingling together in the utmost friendship, while the music struck up merrily to beguile the half hour. According to arrangement, exactly at four o'clock the shrill whistle of the engine was heard, and on the instant the" Shak speare" engine and four carriages, with the Chairman and Duce.. tors, came home to the terminus in gallant style, amid the cheers of the multitude, and under a royal salute from Archcliff Fort. On leaving the carriages the Directors were met by the authori ties, when the Mayor of Dover presented Mr. Baxendale, the Chairman of the Company, with an appropriate address of congratu lation. Mr. BAXENDALE having returned thanks, the procession, after the respective guests had been added to it, was re-formed, and moved off to the theatre, where a banquet was prepared for the company. At five o'clock about 300 gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous dinner at the theatre, which had been completely stripped of its scenery, machinery, &c., to make room for the banquet, and which was neatly fitted up for the purpose. The pit was floored over, the lower boxes were converted into tables, and galleries were raised on either side of the stage containing dining.tables. The one.sh.lling gallery was appropriated to the ladies, and it was completely crammed, while the side slips were occupied by the respective bands. At the back of the stage sat the Chairman (the Mayor of Dover). The Directors and other officers of the Company, and other die. tinguished guests, sat near the Chairman. Among those present we noticed Messrs. John Baxendale, W. P. Richards, E. Cardweil, L. Cubitt, R. Davis, G. Hankey, General Hodgson, F. Mills, H. L. Sm , tle, E. Sturt, Captain Tyndale, W. Cubitt, IP. W. Barlowe, J. P. Fearon, J. Whitehead, B. Cubitt, J. Cubitt, S. M. Latham, H. Latham, J. B. Knocker, G. W. Ledger, J. Marsh, E. Knocker, Rev. J. Puckle, M. Rennett, and Wilcox ; a number of the officers of the Ist Dragoons, Colonel R June , Major Eyre, Colonel King, Captain Egerton, Captain Charlewood, Lieutenant Merritt, M. Le Gros Divot, Mayor of Calais, and the following authorities of the same place :—M. Le Maine, M. Quilleco, M. 11. Dupont, President of the Chamber of Commerce; M. Gullibert, Comman dant of the National Guard; M. Nehon, principal engineer; M. Vogue, member of the Chamber of Commerce; M. Dc Rheims, officer of the National Guard; M. Dessin, member of the Chamber of Commerce; M. Bauchol, civil engineer; M. Spiers, member of the Agricultural Society, &c. M. Adam, the Mayor of Boulogne, was unavoidably absent through severe illness, but the deputy.mayor and the rest of the authorities of that place were present. On the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN gave " The Queen," " the Queen.D.vager," " Prince Albert and the Royal Family," " King Louislliiilippe," " the Archbishop of Canter bury," all of which toasts were enthusiastically responded to. Mr. E. R. Rica, M.P., for Dover, gave the toast of the even. ing—namely, " the Chairman and Directors of the South. Eastern Railway Company," introducing the same by a suitable preface. This toast was received with all the honours it was pos. sible to bestow by the company. Mr. BAXENDALE returned thanks in a most businesslike man. ner, and went into the history of the railway from its commence. ment to its terminus that day at Dover; he adverted to the difficulties with which the Directors and Engineers had had to contend ; he had, however, always considered Dover the highway to continental nations, and he had never despaired. Mr. Wilcox gave " Mr. Cubitt, the engineer.in-chief" Mr. Custer returned thanks. Mr. LEDGER—" The Secretary and other officers of the S-uth Eastern Railway Company. " . _ . . . Mr. H. DerllAM gave " The Mayor and authorities of the for ign porta who had honoured them by their presence." _ . . The " Healths of the Representatives of Dover," " The Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports," and other toasts, followed; and the evening passed off most enthusiastically. The festivities were kept up till a late hour, assisted by the vocal talents of Mr. Mcody, and the members of the choir from Can terbury. SURREY THEATRE. On Monday, after the interesting and effective drama of Stella Rittersdorf, the Captive of Silesia, a new piece in two acts, illustrative of Dickens' much admired recent work, called A Christmas Carol, or the Miser's Warning, was played to a numerous audience. This attempt to blend the gay with the serious was altogether a novelty, and the house was filled with curious and eager spectators. Although the construction of the drama is in some respects at variance with the usual business of the stage, in con sequen.:e of the introduction of theology, it neverthe less contains comic and joyous scenes, which keep the audience in a roar of laughter. The design is to eulogise Christmas hospitality, and expose the selfish ness of the niggardly persons who, from mercenary 4 motives, would check, and even ay . date, the hap piness which Christmas festivities`b • g:to all classes. -, The first act opens with the miser, E nezer Scrooge's, counting-house in the City, on Christpas Eve. Ile -Christmas-day, th 4 inv i itatiesi of—tiis beftEphev7 46 dine 6n - Christmas-day, and with difficulty pays his clerk Bob Cratchet (Vale) his week's salary of fifteen shil lings. Spurningall sorts of seasonable happiness, which he calls humbug, he falls asleep by a miserable expiring fire. His dream then begins. The Ghost of Old Christmas (Lewis) rises clad in holly, and directs his attention to several splendid tableaux of Christmas enjoyments in years past. The Miser is led by a second spirit to scenes of a more serious character : he is conducted to his own chamber of death. He sees his own wretched apparel sold after his decease; his body laid out for interment, and the tomb where he is buried, with a stone bearing his name. This deplorable prospect of the fate which awaits him is productive of horror. He is terrified by a knowledge of the bad use he has made of his riches. He promises the conducting spirit to reform, if permitted to live, and become a better man. In the agony occasioned by the dream he awakes, and to compensate for past avarice, relieves his nephew, who has been ruined by misfortune, settles all his pro perty upon him, and is disposed to make every one happy. All this seems very heavy, and it is rendered more so by the appearance of a dead body, laid out upon the stage, something like the symbol of Chris tianity. To make up for this sombre cast, there is the excellent comic acting of Vale, who gives to per fection all the life, fun, and spirit of a Christmas dinner, with family plum-pudding. The several characters were ably sustained, and the curtain dropped amidst applause. IVith some judicious cur tailment, this bagatelle will continue attractive. MR.WILS ON'S ENTERTAINMENTS Mr. Wilson, having recovered from his hoarseness, repeated his new entertainment, entitled ". Mary Queen of Scots," on Monday, at the Store-street Rooms. The interest manifested by the audience (not by any means a small one) was of the strongest kind; -and no doubt this new undertaking will become, as in other cases, extremely popular. Mr. Wilson gives a pleasant historical sketch of the unfortunate Mary; he runs rapidly through the principal events of her chequered existence from her birth at Linlithgow to her death on the scaffold. He tells of her education in France, of her domestic pursuits and marriage there—of her coronation as Queen of Scotland—of her connexion with Darnley—of her imprisonment at Lochleven—of her abdication of the throne—of her fruitless appeal to Elizabeth—of her trial, condemna tion, and execution. The episodes of the insane passion of Chatelard, the murder of Rizzio, the in veterate opposition of John Knox, and other familiar topics are alluded to in their proper place ; so that the lecture is a complete historiette of the ill-starred Queen. The musical illustrations which are adopted have not been obtained under such favourable cir cumstances as in the case of Burns or Prince Charlie. The poetry and the tunes of the period exist only in name ; but there is abundant proof on record that the time was prolific in warm-hearted effusions in tribute to the beauty and sorrows of the hapless monarch. Mr. Wilson states the difficulty in which he has been placed; but, beyond joining with him in the general regret that these interesting bursts of loyalty and gallantry are lost for ever, we have no reason to be dissatisfied with the alternative he has resorted to. He has made a selection of popular Scottish melodies, and has adapted to them a series of verses written expressly for the purpose by Mr. Ballantine, a young gentleman of Edinburgh, who displays in them much fancy, as well as a nationality of style becoming a Scotchman. Some of these lyrics are eminently good, particularly those having a grave or sentimental cast. The music chosen generally is of that minor air pe culiar to the old Scottish taste, and which, when sung with neatness and expression, becomes exquisitely touching and beautiful. " The Vetera n ' s W e l come ," " Mary's Lament to France, " " The Death-bed La ment of Ring James," " ary's Lament to Loch leven," and the dirge, "Weep, weep ye streams?' are of this class, and last night were listened to with great attention. " The last Lay of Chatelard"—the modi fication of an old French tune—was enthusiastically encored ; and the great Scottish welcome, " Carle, noo the Queen's come," the Covenanters' song—sung with an irresistible nasal twang—and " Tammie and Nannie," with other characteristic effusions, were applauded, baculis pedibusque, until the room rung again. Mr. Wilson sings the whole of these domes tic songs admirably. When the subjects are mo ur n f u l and tender—as in the threnodies—no .t one il cou ldlf; an pos siblyd render them more affecting ha 7 bro:d se humour when, on the contrary, they req uire h k • with a like felicity he still preserves t eeping, and gives them with an archness indescribably pi quant and diverting. Monday morning, at half-past ten, Mr. George Mills, Deputy Coroner for West Middlesex, held an inquest at the White Swan, near the Turnpike, Islington, on view of the body of Mary Miller, aged 62, who was found dead in her bed, on Fri. day morning last, at No. 4, Parcell.court. The Jury returned a verdict of " Natural Death." A; CIS
