IRELAND. % uAAV, SEPT. 6.13ir. O'Connell has sent a subscriptiun ,-;el:tv guweas towards the relief of the friends and sur vi. r;.of prrsoni who lost their lives in the unhappy eon at l;ai;inhassig ; and in performing this act of humanity t - .:e Liberator seizes the opportunity of writing a long letter to Mr. P. O'Connell, of Cork. It runs as follows : " Derrynane Abbey, Sept. 1. '''My dear Philip,—l enclose you the sum of twenty guineas, in , Aidual subscription to the ' Ballinhassig Sufferers' Fund ;' you will be so good as to transmit this money to who ever has the management of that fund. " . I have considered with the deepest attention the case of the. unhappy sufferers in the Ballinhassig affair, and I deeply deplore the very preposterous, and I would add, cruel ver dict, given by the majority of the jurors at the coroner's in quest. How they could have arrived at the conclusion of ' Justifiable Homicide ' exceeds my powers of belief. It is r.'ally revolting to think of the flippancy with which they brought themselves to consider that so much human blood was innocently shed, and so many human lives innocently sacri ficed. If the opinion of the minority of the jury had been adopted, the only consequence would be, that the matter voila be thus placed in a train for further investigation—and no man would have been punished (far what I think were compli , ewer' murders) unless found guilty before a judge of the land, and by an undoubtedly impartial jury. The verdict, as it stands, potentially prevents any further judicial inquiry. It is not a positive estoepel, but it practically terniunates any hope of inflicting just punishment, or of obtaining any kind of redress. " The Government will of course continue to decline any further examination into the matter—they are not likely to be discontented with the escape of the instruments of their power. What is then to he done ? You ask what I advise to be done. Alas ! after the fullest consideration, I have arrived at the result that nothing effectual can be suggested. There is nut the least prospect of our procuring a bill of indictment to be found for murder, it even for manslaughter—not the least; and it is difficult to say that any other course could be open, save that of presenting to the grand jury an indictment. At present, therefore, I have no advice to give—and I say it with bitter affliction of heart. I will, however, give you intimation of the time when I can be in Cork on my way to Dublin—so that we may arrange a consultation between me and the gentle men who so ably conducted the inquiry—in order to see whether we could strike out any plan to satisfy the demands of justice and humanity. " 'Tis really shocking to think that the police should be e rn i ;loyed, with deadly weapons in their hands, to decide up'ti the necessity of arresting persons not guilty of felo nious or capital offences. It is a bad system that sanctions tho use of murderous weapons upon occasions where, even if the imputed crime of the slain were really proved, the utmost punishment could not exceed a small fine or a short imprisonment. The origin of this Ballinhassi,g slaughter is to Le traced to so silly and trivial a cause as that of a man beating ,his own horse on the head with his own hat. s , And ),t, originating in so trifling a cause, the death de,,,,;ws weapons were handled, and the corpses of he husband, th e fai, t e, the brother—ay, and of the wite—strewed the ground, and their blood flowed ; but the earth has not covered it, it remair a cr . iirg to Heaven for vengeance, and to the all ni,rsijui b u t a il...ptat Providence we leave the vindication of the crone eorna.it!ep in the face of Heaven—' Vengeance is mine, ataith the Lord, and I will repay. Tjlis waist melancholy slaughter reminds us, alas ! of many other a:..enes of ii a,sacre, front Castlepoilard to Skibbereen, all dissitictly irat:Tatile to the fatal policy of, I will say, un necessarily arming ,he police with murderous weapons. Waenever it is iterelsary to use instruments of immediate dem:, the military should be called out. The soldiers, under the command of their officers, always in Ireland act with huma tidy to the people. If there 44 been sAdiers at Bailin hassig, ihstesai of po:iee, not a single life would have been lost, and i.“!ace would have been perfectly preserved. " I entertain no present hope (as you perceive) of any re slress ; yet we will consider of it more attentively, with this rnelamtliiily pressure on our minds, that the s lau g hter at Bal lin already fading from recollection, although as many human being h s were massacred and as much human hlood,sh d *as in the recent insurrectionary movement at Iseinsiti, which 'tiotivulsea eetdral Europe, and threatens overthroW ?nd ealine. 000 to thrones and principalities.—Believe me to be, my dear Phitip, most faithfully yours, " DANIEL O'CONNELL. " Mr. Philip O'Connell, so!iciti,r, 37, South-mall, Cerk." 01: NGE DE IIONSTRA TION IN BELFAST. B E Lt . ST, CI{SaA NIGHT. —A soiree was held this e , :eteeg, for Cif purpose of expressing the public sympathy of the Pret, , sanis of that portion of the north of Ireland in favour of Me. W 0 ,50,1, and their ir,dignatiou at his dismissal from the Wilke of D e puty-Lieutenant, which he had filled so honourably for upwards of a qthirter of a century. The place selected for this display of puhlie feeling was the Music Hall. a large and handsome building, situated in the neighbourhood of Donegal square. At the back of the chair was placed a crown, beau -1i:oily maim and tastefuil decorated; and before it a email tie* in which was engravers, in letters of geld, the tvor4. Itic Orangemen of Ireland." Other parts of the also covered by similar flags with the words— " The .Plotestant Operatives," and at the lower end was a lit- i .;e',circular flag, on which were ingeniously worked in 'oldies; " Witsou for ever. " At the lower end of the room is a large gallery, which was also crowded by numbers. file hoer determined on for the commencement of the soiree w a s half past seven o'clock ; but long before it the streets in :he neighbourhood of the hall were crowded by thousands of -,nxions spectators, while the doors of the building continued fdosely.blockaded by those who had purchased or obtained tickets of admission. The price cf each ticket was five shil lings, but so great was the anxiety to obtain them, that the siumber which the building could contain was sold in a few hours. Shortly before halt-past seven, James Rose Cleland, Esq., entered the hall, and was received with the most rap turous cheering, arid rounds of the Kentish fire; but the en thusiastic reception of the evening was reserved for the Earl of Jtoden, Colonel Verner, and Mr. Watson, whose entrance seas marked by so enthusiastic a welcome, as to be absolutely 6eafenilig in its effect. Peal upon peal followed close on each other, until the very building seemed to resound with the deafening echo, and then followed the Kentish fire, which was contioued with the same enthusiasm for at least ten minute. 'The .Noble Earl, on taking the chair, was supported on his right by Mr. Watson, ex D. L.. and J. P. ; Colonel Verner, See. ; and on his le't by J. R. Cleland, Esq.. &c. &e. )r) the m. , tinn of .1. W. 3laxweat, Esq., of Finnebrogue, iwei:rifiiict by .1. W. SHA NNON, of Beitast, the Right Hon. the Earl of IZeden was appointed Prei,ii.mt, amid the most enthu t,astle arelareatchs. CHA RM.% N then oblerved, that before proceed ing... the business of the evening, he would call on the Rev. 2d,. 111-I!.vaine to open that mee•ing, as was their usual cu.- t qu, with a prayer to the Giver of all Good. The Ret. ti3;tlernan having done so, j Nis 1,0 unrsitir next said, that he was anxious, before he pro.- eeeossi ferther, to express to the meeting the sincere gratifiea floe fete-at the opportunity thus afforded him of uniting with Id s Protestant brethren—the operatives of Belfast—in the great and important objects for which they were assembled. He was also an-xeus to, exprese his thanks to the Committee, first, and to th:' satiety at lance, for their kindness in having postponed the meeting from Thursday last to the present day, loseive loin so opportunity - of having !he happiness of presiding. Loud cheers. ) A list of sentiments was put mt.° his hand, whici it was his duty and his pleasure to submit fur the appro kettien of that great assembly—and he, therefore, thought he best consulted their feelings and interests by deferring any fur ther obeerva . ion; until another opportunity offered itseli, in pireeising one of the toasts ( Hear, hear, and cheers. ) " ;err. PHILL(PS, the Secretary, then read letters of apoloey . hew the Esrlef Colonel Blacker, Wi.liam Black wood, Feel.. Alderman Nelson, Alexander Johnston Mont turnery, Eel., 11r. Bowan, agent to Lord Downshire, and Col. utra,:o, Cs low, fee , regretting their inability to attend, but hrtari; a conc.:n - 11)g in the of jeers of the meeting. TheNoble - Cita titmaN propined the " Health of her Ma jesty ths Queen, mid prosperity to her."—(Great cheering, and the Kentish fire. ) :rte. Noble EAitr, had nest to propose to them a toast, which he h s . I ea doubt they would receive with equal loyalty and en- Itlii4lllll —it was that of His Royal Highness Prince Albert, and th !loyal Offspring of the House of Brunswick. May they be hroellit op in mindful adherence to those Protestant prin ciples which placed their ancestors on the throne of these Tra;MA, which alone can maintain our present Sovereign there. —( Chi era. ) Tit=' Niilll.E C/1 IRMA!4, in proposing the next sentiment, s. d- --Lilies and gentleman, I have already taken the opportu nity expressing the sincere pleasure it has given me of meet ing t e e iyerativee el Belfast, in tendering an act of justice and ve te e l, to yoer excellent guest; and 1 ran again assure you that there are few things that give me greater pleasure than the opportunity of uniting with my Protestant fellow-country man on any subject connected with the welfare of our cem teem etesetry.—(Cheers.) It has been my lit during a 101 l life to 'have attended many public and important meet ing.e of my Protestant fellow-countrymen,- but I think I can undertake to say, that at no time have I felt greater pain, aitheogh that pain is mixed with considerable satisfaction, Shan on the occasion which brought na together this evening. --(Cheers. ) Ladies and gentlemen, I have felt pain at seeing a Cooeervative Government, which you, as operatives, in con ienction with the Protestant gentry of this land—both united together, and each acting in his separate sphere—placed in that posit:on which they now hold—( Cheers)—l felt, I say, the greatest pain that that Government should be now induced to take the part it has latterly taken with respect to the object 'which brought us together this evening, in a case connected with our respected friend, Mr. Watson —( Hear , a nd ch e ers ) When I bear in mind the course pursued by her Majesty's Go eereiment with respect to our valued friend, I cannot help feeling; the sincerest sorrow, because I cannot help coming to the conclusion that in this instance the Protestants of Ire land were affected; for he came forward and stood up for those principles which are near and dear to us all.—( Tremendous cheering.) I trust, therefore, that the eentiment lam about to take the liberty of prepesing on the present occasion will meet with your hearty approbation, and that we shall let it be known that we and the P. otestants of Ulster sympathise ,most deeply with hint—(Cheers) —in the course the Gecern leant thought proper to pursue.--( Cheers.) We have been led to ask what crime he had committed which caused him to be dismissed from the ofilee of a deputy-lieutenant, and the situa tion of a justice of the peace, which lie held for so many years, with honour to Wins , It and usefulness to his country and so ciety.—(Cheers. ) For my own part, I should have been at a loss to know the reason of such dismissal, anti so also would have be, n my respected friend, if it were not fur the letter he reeeived signed " E. Lucas," and written by direction of his Excellency the Lord-Lieateoant, wherein it was declared that the reason of his being removed from the commission was be cause he placed himself in a position wherein he was enabled to check any violence which might have arisen, and allay that irritation in the Protestant mind of Ulster which the acts of the Government had unfortunately raised up.—( Great cheering, which lasted several minutes.) Under these circum stances, I will not detain you with any further observations, but propose to you the toast which I ant sure will meet with uni versal approbation, and that is " The Independent Gentry of Ulster, and James Watson, Esq., of Broekhifl, their worthy and excellent guett."—(Great cheering. ) [The Banner of Ulster gives the following as the true ver sion of the concluding portion of Lord Roden's speech :—" s I shall proceed to read the sentiment put into my hand—a 'enti went which, lam sure, you will all receive wth satisfeetion. His Lordship then r e a d the foll o wi ng: — " The indep en d en t aristocracy of Ulster, and our high-spirited guest, James Watson, of Broekhill, Esq., the first victim of the as,ertion of Protestant freedom, in these perilous times, at the shrine of expediency." As many as a 4rce to that sentiment will signify their assent by standing up.' The company l rose simultaneously, amid deafen ing and prolong ed cheers. Mr. tVATSON then presented himself, an orange and blue kerenief in his breast, and was received with loud cheers and peals of the Kentish fire. When silence was restored he said— My Lord Roden, brother and sister operatives, you could not confer on me a higher honour or greater favour than you have done this evening, and which I duly appreciate. I am acre that I am only a secondary object ; it is the Protestant cause you have at heart.—(Cheers.) It is to show Sir Robert Peel that he misrepresented the feelings of the Protestants of the north of Ireland when he asserted they were favourable to the Maynooth grant. The Protestants are awake and stirring to uphold their rights and privileges—by all lawful means to main tain their position, to hand tiown unimpaired and scatheless those valued benefits derived from their ancestors, purchased by their blood, cheap at any price.—(Cheers.) Allow me, brother operatives and Protestants here assembled, to ceng.a zulate you on ha v i n g that valueble, that un cutnprorxeing champion of Protestantism and • religious huh pr .,,,idi„ g over y e oe this evening—that nobleman revered, . - •. THE SUN, LON DON, T SDA. It MORNI 6-, SEPT E l'B4t. respected, and beloved by all—(Cheers)—and our valued and much-regarded friends, Mr. Cleland and Colonel Verner, zea lously and earnestly supporting this great, good, and righteous cause. 1 beg to tell you this feeling is not confined to the north of Ireland. I have received gratifying addresses from Liver pool, Dublin, and Cork, also marks of approbation from Lon don, showing that the spirit which animates us is spreading far and near.—( Cheers.) My Lord" and friends, to excuse my egotism, you must place yourselves' in the enviable position to which you have raised me. Entertained by you, seated on the right hand of one of the best of men—accept my hesrtfelt and grateful thanks ; and sincerely wishing each and • all of you may attain to my old age, health, and happiness, I shall con clude my long-spun yarn in the emphatic words of the Derry heroes, "No surrender."—( Renewed applause, during which some excited gentlemen nearly smothered Colonel Verner, by clapping over his head and face a flag inscribed " Verner and no surrender.") Mr. W. DANE, of Enniskillen, returned thanks for the health of Lord Enniskillen, and declared that concession must be stayed now and for ever.—( Cheers.) The Noble EARL next proposed the health of those Pro testant Members of the House of Commons who, true to their religious and political principles, voted against the State en dowment of the Popish College of Mayneoth.—( Cheers.) Colonel VERNER spoke to the toast, and said—Ladies and gentlemen, friends and brethren, for such I must ever desig nate you, because we are bound by a tie which never can be severed—the duty devolves on me to say a few v. ords in reply to the sentiment which my Noble Friend has put from the chair, because I believe I am the only individual present to whom it applies. We have all heard it said, that if a person is able to answer satisfactorily for himself he does very well, and I will not, therefore, take upon myself to answer for those Mem bers of Parliament who did not do their duty, the more especially as they will come befute those who have a much better right than I have to ask for an explanation, at the proper time and in the proper place. My Lord, I hare the satisfaction of saying that, on that occasion, we had as respectable a minority as ever was seen in the House of Comincns, when it is recollected that we had opposed to us not only the whole weight and influence of the Govern ment, but the hostility of the Radical and Roman Catholic Members of the House; yet, my Lord, notwithstanding all this, we mustered 109 against the infamous measure.— (Cheers.)—My Lord, I attended here for the purpose of ex pressing my sentiments of regard and affection to my old and valued friend, Mr. Watson—and, my Lord, I attended, also, for the purpose of joining you in the expression—to give it the mildest term—of your regret at the uncalled-few and undeserved censure which the Government thought proper to pass on him for having attended a meeting on the last 12th of July.—(Cheers.) I say without hesitation, in the p resence of Mr. Watson, that his conduct on that occasion, instead of being deserving of censure, merited the strongest approbation— ( Loud cheers )—for he attended for the purpose of dis charging a double duty as a friend and a magistrate.— ( Loud cheers.) My Lord, there were circumstances con nected with that meeting which ought not to be forgotten, and in connexion with the subject, I shall refer to an ex pression delivered many years since, which was to this effect, " With regard to Orange processions, it is unwise and absurd to think of preventing loyal men from celebrating an event to which they owe their liberty and the blessings th •y enjoy." —(Cheers.) That was the opinion expressed by an ital.:dual who now passes an unmitigated censure on Mr. Watson.— ( A voice—' Ah ! Peel.") lam not now speaking as an ad vocate of those processions; I have already expressed my dis approbation of them, because, unless I see them carried on as they used to be, when the wealth and respectability of the country turned out to join them, it is much better to abstain from them altogether.—( Hear, hear.) But they were never intended to convey the slightest offence to any portion of her Majesty's subjects, and those who said so misrepresented those who took a part in them.—(Hear, hear.) It has been said that Mr. Watson was dismissed because similar c',nduct was pursued towards repeal magi:orates ; but I ask are the loyal awl disaffected to be put together—( Hear, and continued cheers)—are Ribandmen and Orangemen to be looked on in the same point of view ?—(Continued cheers.) Are repeaters and the advocates and supporters of British connexion to ba put on the same looting ; or, in short, to be dealt with in the same manner ?—(Cheers. ) I would ask if the same conduct i 3 to be observed with regard to the two bodies? Are they to be treated alike, with equal punishments and rewards, al though with regard to the latter, I believe it is long since jus tice was done in this respect to the loyal Protestants of Ireland? —(Cheers.) No ; rewards were ressrved exclusively for those whom it may be considered expedient to try and conciliate.— ( Cheers.) My Lord, frequent allusions have been made to the letter written to Mr. Watson, mei signed E. Lucas." I believe that letter was as much written by me as by Mr. Lucas. —( Hear.) Your Lordship knows him well, and for my own part I have no hesitation in saying thet he is incapable of writ ing such a letter, or doing anything that would wound the feel ings of any gentleman ; but particularly one so deserving of esteem as Mr. Watson. It is only by comparing a port on& that letter with the answer giver. me in the House of Commons, t hat it will satisfy one as to the particular locality where it was con cocted. For myself, I think it smells exceedingly strong of Downing-street.—(Laughter.) I concur and heartily juin with those who say that the name of Lucas is out of its proper place in being affixed to that manifesto ; for I cannot help re gretting exceedingly that, at the close of his official career, he should lend his name in such a manner as to give offence to thousands of those by whom he had been at all times most af fectionately regarded—(Cheers)—and who are much con cerned for his reputation. I have heard it said that he would have done much better had he resigned office sooner than write that letter. I cannot give any explanation why he did not do so ; but this I know, that it had scarcely reached Mr. Watson before he did resign. —(Cheers.) My Lord, 1 rejoice to see you there—(Cheers) —it is a place that becomes you—( Great cheering)--for you are at the head of a body of men who not only still regard you with respect, but entertain for you the most sincere affection—( Cheers) —and I may be permitted to say that no prouder situa tion exists in which a man can be placed than at the hestt of the Protestants of Ireland.—( Great cheering ) My Lord, I said I should only answer for myself. I have been fre quently asked why it is I make myself so conspicuous —that it does nu good ; that, as there is no use in it, why is it that I dal so more than any body else ? To that I say, more shame for those who do not exert themselves; and, with regard to myself, my conduct is explained in a few words, rpmely, that nay conscience tells me I am pursuing the true and prover Cheers.) The Hon. and Gallant Gentletneo then resumed his seat amid loud cheers. . . The, next toast sta , , " The• glorious principles of the Re formation, and long may ita ministers and people ho.d the written word of God, and unite in maintaining it.' he Rev. Mr. CAMPBELL felt honoured in being called on to speak to the toast of the glorious Reformation, a Reforma tion well worthy of angels' tongues, and too high a theme for mortsl roan to do it justice, because it delivered the nation and the Church from Romish tyranny and Popish emrs—because it was the cause of the nation's greatness, which, by God's grace and assistance, should never desert its principles. The CHAMMAM then rose, and said that he would not occupy their time by saying anything with respect to the senti ment he had to submit to them, as the gentleman who would respond to it they were all acquainted with, and who would do full justice to its merits ;—" The Principles of Protestant Operative Institutions. May they long be maintained in Scriptural and Constitutional integrity, and form an indis soluble link between nobility and aristocracy, clergy and laity, rich and poor, of our Protestant population." The Rev. Mr. Wlnnwarns then rose, and was loudly cheered. He had great pleasure in rising to respond to' the ssotirnent which had just been proposed. He could not come to the question without saying a ward of sympathy and re spect .in favour of their honoured guest. James Watson ; he would also say congratulation, and propose as an emend ment—that the gratitude of this meeting is due to Sir Robert Peel for enabling Mr. Watson to stand forward in defence of his principles, and appear before you as he has done. Until Sir Robert Peel tested the matter you were not aware of how great a man be (Mr. Watson) was. lie had f.lt constrained to attend that meeting, "if it were only to raise his voice against the arbitrary course that had been pursued with re gard to Mr. Wittoo.—(Hear, hear.) He must s?y that he never saw a' l6cument coming from a legal hand that bore less the stamp of loyalty about it. It referred to an Act passed in 1836 by a Ministry of whom Lord Melbourne was the head, a Ministry who were well known to be influenced in a great Measure by Mr. O'Connell, and yet, Sir Robert Peel, coming into power under Protestant support, put this document for ward in justification of his dismissal of Mr. Watson.—(Hear, hear.) Why, we might if we were to go back to 1836 as well go back to George IV., to George 111., or James 11., for a justification of any measure that any Ministry might think fit to bring forward. In this letter it was attempted to strike at Protestantism through Orangeism. It was attempted to be proved that because there was rio.ing in Armagh the meeting in Down was to be considered dis orderly and unlawful. He denied that Mr. Watson was out of his duty in attending the meeting for which he was dis missed—he attended it as the friend of what was censtitational, as a landlord, to encon!agU his tenantry/ in upholding what he arid they believed to buprinCiples which were right. He would ask-those present, was there a blow struck or an accident oc curred in consequence of this meeting? They could safely answer no. 'Well, then, foe attending this constitutional .nd peaceable meeting he was kicked from the position the Ministry should have been proud to see bins occupy. It Has been said of Orangism that it is illegal, and that those who attend in their magisterial capacity are liable to be dismissed. Well, they have dismissed one —they have plenty . more to dismiss for the same offence; they may commence with . .the Noble Marquis of Downshire ; and they had a great number of others—if one was guilty so were all. A sveriedeas had been issued against Mr. Watson, and although he might not like it as well as a warrant of lodge, which he received the other day, yet he would tell them that supersedeases were all the fashion in the days of James It. The speaker continued at considerable length to comment upon the subject of the sers tisnent, and, en concluding, was loudly cheered. The CuisiitmAN had great pleasure in proposing the next sentiment—" Our Protestant Town-council—may sound .prin elides and usefulness ever characterise their proceedings.' Mr, A. HILL briefly responded. " The Protetant electors of Ireland." Mr. J. BATES responded. " The giorion.. pious, and immortal memory of the great_ and good King Wilhatn."— [lt is impossible to describe the enthusiasm with which this toast was hailed.l Mr. J. Jou NSOK replied. Lerd Roivn was then moved from the chair, and Mr. Cleland called to it. Thanks were returned to Lord Roden, and the met tiny . broke up, and the members quietly sought their respec. _ tive homes. A ROBBER CONCEALED IN A BEDROOM.-0 SUn day morning, about six o'clock, William Thomas and his wife,- who are in charge of the house of Alfred Jephson, Esq fianelagh-street, Pimlico, the family being out of town, - were alarmed by a strange noise in the upper apartments. Thomas , after closely examining the ground and fi rst floors, proceede d _ to the secnnd, and while in the act of looking under the bed in the front room, a fellow darted from a cupboard and made his way to the top of the how. He was followed by Thomas, who caught him by the skirts of his coat as he was getting out of the attic window. lie, however, tore himself away, leaving them behind him, and escaped over the roofs of the ad joining houses. He had packed up two large bundles ready to carry away. The only things missing are a time-piece and some silk haf,dkerchiefs.

Three gentlemen having taken the oaths as county magis trates, The Com i 4Ax briefly addresied the grand jury. He said that there was little in the calendar to call for remark on his part. The nu►nb ~ r of eases was in all 41, and none of these were of a very important character. As compared with the corresponding period of last year there was a decrease of 30 eases, and the tle4rte of crime was also greatly lightened. The grand jury then retired, and the pet►t jury was sworn in. FELONIOUSLY WOUNDING TWO CALVES.—James Simmons, aged 19, and Reuben Simmons, aged 16, were indicted fa. Eaving wounded two calves, the property of Michael Agate, Ash:earl, bg shooting thein with Ore-arms. Mr. Locke was for the pro,ecutiou ; the prisoners were un defcrideri. The case was shortly as follavvs :—A witness, named Vane, was at work in a field near a hovel used for the purpose of keeping eatt le. He heard a shut fired, and saw the two brothers rLnnint , off in the direction of a wood. On entering the hovel, he found" two calves wounded, one having its eye shot out, and the other being wounded in the body. The prisoners were sub sequently taken into custody. The offence was shown to have had its origin in revenge, the young. r prisoner for a similar offence having been sent to Brixton for two months. Jam , s Simmons said, " It was not me done it." Reuben Simmons—" I know nothing on it." The CUAIRMAN summed up, and the jury returned a ver dict of Guilty. The prisoners were stated to heve borne a very bad cha ratter previously, the younger one having been convicted on two former occasions. The sentence of the Court was that James be sect to the House of Correction at Guildford for nine month, with hard labour, and that Reuben be imprisoned in Brixton for the same iwriod, also with hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO ISE. Mr. Hal, of the firm of %V. J. Ha ll and Co., of the Cast an House Q lay, waited upon the Lord Mayor for lie purpose of inaking a commumeation to bib L o rd s hi p relative to the suit d e o f a gentleman on his passage f rom Hull to London, i n a k te a rti-vessel. It appeared from a s tate ment mad::by Mr. Hall, th at on Saturday afternoon, the 6th of September, when the Vil,iatn Darley steam-vessel was on her passage from flidi to the port of London, a gentleman, best cabin the The ti n t o c d reversed, wasi n a s t t l . d .l n t t h i ; P"sieng , r, jamped overboard near the Lower Middle Buoy abr. ast ch.-.

The deceased sunk, and was seen no more. No appearance of insanity was attached 'to him us far as those on board hal epportunities of ascertaining during the voyage, but y he was ob serve d to b e excee di ng ly low-spirited and rest !pis. On Fridv night he partook of tea with the re s t of the litieui - ;er., and he sat iii the cabin i4l night. On S .tta da It - writin he took breakfast alone. At ale , ut two o'clo c k i n th e a f tern oon he had a small br.ttl e of porter and u biscuit, and after the other passengers had dined he dined by hiteself on deck, and 50,.. : ,.. , .: 1 , he had finished his meal he committed himself to the waves. lie was about five feet .fight inches tall, had round face, appeared to be thirty or thirty-one /ea Ts _7: of age, and Wa3 (11.-ed in a Tat':•lioni cont, light drab trou,er, light light neelo: , rehief, and Iv e lli ng t o n .I,;(srdisg t, e ,t o f the rk e)i leetien of Mr. 13arrow, the el , .!k of the Willimn Mtrhy, the deceased had a watch in hi:, poult,t at the time he jumped overboard. The following certificate was h,in• - :ed to he Laird May , 4. We, the undet , igned, do her , by certify that we were pas seng ry on board the William Darby steamer, Captain William Turner, which left Hull for London oa the sth day of Septem ber, 1845, and on the 6th, when at sea, near the Lower Middle Buoy, a gentleman, best cabin passenger, jumped overboard and was drowned, and we, to the best of our judgment, do be lieve that Captain Turner used every exertion to save him, by lowering and manning a boat, and reversing the engines, but it was all in vain. (Signed) " E Pickering, H. Edwards J. Dobson, F. Edwards, D. Milner, J. Rastram, W. R. Grove, Richard J. Pears, Geo. W. Codd, Wm.lllearsNewton." 8. Wride, A pi ssenger was b:ok• d as irr. N. Co!!, Norwich. who was suppos-d to be the gentleman who drowned him self, as a tiox with that natmi upoil it was I.•ft and had not been elaiined. Tin ro was al-.o a ligtq leather portman , cau, a coat, a , :d fishil , g tackle, un claimi-A It was stated that the arci 1 s specified as having ben on board without being chimed may he seen f.,r the purpose of identiticadon by application to Messrs. Hall. _ . . The dece,sed was said to hav, destro; ed himself just as the other passengers had all moved to ae opposite side of the vessel to lo , k at the Gazelle ',.teatner which was rapidly passing along. The LORD MAYOR approved of the course pursued by the captain of the William Darley, in causing the statement to be tri , ide public as soon as p.s.tible, and in order that the fliends of the un!'ortunate gentleman might be made acquainte•cd with the facts. It was also satisfactory to be assured tai .t every thing that could have been done by the captain to save the life of the de ceased had been done, as was evident from the wording of the certificate. Mr. Edwarl illo-bkau. an old gentleman of rather eccentric appearance and manners, was charged with drunkenness. A policeman said, that as he wa. passing upon his boat, tha defendant, who had all tha evidences of a hard night's booze upn him, staggered along, and at last made a full stop, and turning round like a dog three or four times, to make himself comfortable, was about to (lump down in the kennel to sleep, when he was taken hold of and shaken. He had hi; watch in his hand to ascertain, as it was supposed, the exsct time he was re tiring to his repose. Upon being brought round to some knowledge of the exposed condition of his bed-room, he, instead of expressing any fe,li:g of gratitude for the care that was taken of him, swGre that he had been robbed of 5/. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, Sir, what have you to say now that you are sober? The defendant—Why, upon my word, my Lord, I did very wrong, I protest, in drinking beyond my power of carrying it in a steady and respectable way. The policeman added that the gentleman should have been discharged, but the complaint of the loss of the 51. cast an imputation upon the force, and it was therefore considers I necessary to introduce him to his Lordship. The defendant—l am a man, my Lord, advanced in years, and, therefore, I outrht not to get turned over head and heels in livor as I was. It was a scandalous act upon my part, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—I am must decidedly of your opi rion, if you are sincere. It is disgraceful to an ()Id man to drink until he fancies himself no better than a dog. (A laugh.) As )ou so ciirpfidly acknowledge your error. and as you have been confined in the station-house, I shall only tine you ss, but ta . te care how you are brought here again. The defendant bowed to the very ground, paid the penalty, and teparted. A young luau, named If. Friend, who was stated to be an apprentice in Bishopsgate, was charged with hlving gone into a pubic-house, owned by a Mr. Bromley, used most gros-ly offensive language, en deavoured to strike the landlord, and with havint actually struck two of the policemen. The landlord d( (dared that although the defendant was a mere lad, he never beheld such an outrage as he had c.iromitted. The policemen said thlt he had kicked at and struck them most violently, and that half a-dozen were obliged to get hold of him before ho could be mastered, as they were deteraomed not to use their staves upon hi•n. Ile boasted that his friends had plenty of money to pay any penalty the Lord Mayor should think proper to inflict. The LORD MAYOR-4 (10 not intend to inflict any penalty whatever in a pecuniary way. But I shall cer tainly see what a month's imprisonment will do towards his correction.—Commitedto prison for one month. MARKET NEW tS.,-(YEgTERDAY.) CORN-EXCHANGE During the past week the arrivals of Wheat of home pro duce were tolerably extensive, but by no means large. Those of all other kinds of English grain were rather limited. Fresh up to-day the receipts of English Wheat were only moderate, and principally of the present year's growth. The show of samples was not to say large, while the demand, from the increased number of buyers in attendance, was steady. In some few instances, the first qualities of white produced a trifle more money, say is per quarter, but which advance was by no means general, since we cannot alter our previous currencies. In the middling and inferior kinds of both red and white, a fair average amount of business was trans acted, at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday last. Upwards of 27,000 quarters of foreign wheat have been im ported since our last, only a small portion having been en tered for home consumption. The show of samples this morning was small. For nearly all descriptions, but parti cularly for selected kinds, the sale was firm, and previous rates were readily supported. For corn under lock there was more inquiry. Holders were firm, and would not sell excel tat more money. The accounts which have reached us to-day from various parts of the country, are to the effect that considerable progress is making in harvest work. The general yield is nut well represented in sum, pl aces . We had about 200 quarters of new English Barley on offer ; but of old qualities the supply was unusually small, that of fine foreign far from extensive. Grii:ding qualities com manded a steady demand, at Lull rates of currency ; while a good clearance was effected in other kinds, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Monday last. The arrivals of Malt being on the increase, the Malt trade was dull; new parcels were quite as dear, but the value of other kinds had, in some instances, a down ward tendency, and a clearance was not effected. The supply of English, Irish, and Scotch Oats was very small, that of foreigo moderate. The Oat trade was somewhat firmer than was that of last week ; but no improvement took place in value. Beans were in fair supply, and sluggish de mand, at barely stationary prices. The arrivals of new Peas being on the increase, most kinds sold to-day at a decline of from is to 2s per quarter.

Since Uonday last the imports of live stack from abroad have proved extensive—they have amounted to 200 Oxen and Cows, 500 Sheep, and 14 Calves, mostly from Rotterdam, and, for the most part, in excellent condition. To-day we had on offer 150 Beasts, and 90 Sheep. The demand for them was tolerably steady, at full prices.

The supply of Beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, this morning, was seasonably extensive, and in good condition. For the primest Scots the demand was tolerably steady, at fully last week's quotations: but all other kinds met a dull inquiry, at barely late rates. The Bullock droves from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, &c., amounted to 900 Short-horns; from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 700' Scots, Home-breds, and Short-horns ; from the Western and Midland Counties, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England, 400 of various breeds ; from Scotland, 100 Scots ; and from Ireland, 90 Beasts, "lie num bers of Sheep were small for the time of year, yet fully ade quate to meet the wants of the butchers. Generally speak ing, the Mutton trade was heavy, and prices were with difficulty supported. Prime small Lambs sold at extreme rates. In other qualities very little was doing.

The accounts from several districts being unfavourable as respects the failure in the potatoe crop, the best qualities are held at more money. In other kinds a good business is doing at late rates. Cork GUILD/I - ALL. JUVENILE DETRAVITIN—A young lad, about ten years of age, was brought before Alderman Farncombe, charged with robbing his employers for some time past of money, goods, &c. Mr. Lloyd Holden, of Finsbury-pavement,. brush-maker, stated, that the prisoner (George Edward Clements) entered his service three weeks since. He had been in the habit of missing goods from time to time, but did not take any notice of it until Saturday night, when, in consequence of the prisoner keeping 6d. which he received in change on the Friday from Mr. Arnold, of London-bridge, complainant accused him. The accused, after some time, acknowledged that he had twice robbed the cr.sh-box, and once broken it open. He also had robbed the till several times ; all letters that were sent to be put in the post he d :stroyed and si ent the money ; he also stole balls, value .ss. each, besides whips, scent-b,,ttlea, gas- balloons, &c., to a great amount. In fact, he said that he never left the pre mises at night without taking something or other under hiscoat. He was in the habit, when taking goods home, instead of charging the proper price, demanding 6d. or Is. more. When the lad made this admission, witne•s did not promise to forgive him, but only said he would consider what he should do with him. Alderman FAENCOMBE remanded the prisoner until Satur day morning. BOW-STREET. Charles Robertson, a gentlemanly-looking man, was charged with being drunk, and committing an assault on policeman I' 25, who stated that the pris,mer and some others were turned out of a public-house in the Strand. They were all very noisy, and the prisoner and another were fighting in the street. He attempted to separate them, and they both turned upon him ; the prisoner knocked him down, and the other kicked him. He was very much bruised. The other persons escaped. The prisoner admitted the truth of the policeman's statement. Mr. TW TFORD said he must send him to prison for one month. S; 'UT 11 Thomas Round, an elderly man, in the employ of a cab proprietor, was charged, before Mr. Traill, with making a very determin d attempt at self- desti uetion. A Waterman who plies at Lambeth.stairs, stated that, at an early hour that morning, while he was engaged in his wherry, he observed the defendant struggling in the water off Burnett's wharf. He immediately went to his assistance, and, in trying to haul him into he boat, the defendant nearly upset it, and seemed determined on carrying his obj , ct—that of drowning himself—into effect. The witioass, however, held him tightly by the hair unto further assistance arrived, and, with difficuity, at length got him out of the water and gave him into custody. The defendant, who has an impediment in his speech, which was increased by the excitement produced by the attempt upon his life, said that he was recently discharged from his situation, and that having drank too much, he scarcely knew what he did. The defendant's master said he discharged him for inebriety, and that previously he had exhibited decided symptoms of men tal aberration. . . . . . Mr. TuAtim said the defendant appeared to be labouring under delirium tremens, and that he should send him to Lam beth workhouse, in which parish he was found. CLEI?KE_VWEL L. Two ruffianly- looking fellows named Sullivan and Pearman were charged with assaulting and wounding an acter named Farrell. Previous to the evidence being gone into, the maclistrates' clerk (Mr, Mould) observed that the new Bartholoreer fair, which lasted during the whole of last week, was a great nui sance. All the pickpockets and vagabonds in London seemed •te have assembled there. They must have had at least 40 prisoners from it. The fair was got up by a beer-shop keeper, and surely this individual ought to be indicted. Mr. COSISE said the police had better look to it. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoners, unpro voked, attacked Hannah, who was conveying home some of the parapharnalia of a theatrical exhibition, in which he acted at the fair. Ho iesisted, and Sullivan struck him with a saw on the brea4t, producing a deep and severe wound, from which the blood flowed profusely. Pearman also struck him. Sergeant G 3 stated that when the prosecutor reached the station, he was bleeding so freely from a wound in the hand, that he tound it necessary to send him to the hospital. Sullivan was sentenced to pay a tine of 1/., ur a month's im prisonment, Pearman 10s., or a fortnight. PUSEYISM AT YORK.—A public meetiniz of the parishioners of St. Michael-le- Belfrey, York, took place on Wednesday afternoorclait, for the purpose of taking into con sideration the conduct of the Rev. W. Ree,i, who, on the pre ceding Sunday, preached in his surplice, and also introduced several changes into the usual forms of performing divine service in that church. The meeting was called in cense quence of a requisition to the churchwarden, signed by a num ber of the parishioners, who disapproved of the novel practices introduced into the church by Mr. Heed. Mr. Whitelock, the senior churchwarden, occupied tit.; chair. The Chairman stated that some time ago Mr. Reed asked for the use of the church for the morning service for the youths educated in the training school, of which he is the master, and that they had granted him permission, apitropriating the gallery for the use of the scholars, but reserving the body of the church for the parishioners. For a considerable time no alteration took place in the service ; recently, however, a great number of changes had been introduced, until he thought they had come to a grand climax. A discussion then ensued, in which Mr. Sum mer, Mr. No.ik, Professor Gregory, Mr. Dixon, Mr. Marsh, Mr. Bingley, and others, took part, and ultimately the fol lowing resolution was carried That the Churchwardens be requested to give notice to the Rev. W. Reed, that, in conse quence of the novel practices introduced into the church ser vice on Sunday morning last, he cannot have the use of the church on or after Sunday next, the 7th of September, and that this meeting authorises the Churchwardens to adopt such measures as may be requisite to enforce this reseintioe.' l --,.. Leeds Mercury. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT BRIXTON.---On Saturday evening, at about half-past ten o'clock, a fire, which at one tine threatened to be of an alarming character, broke out in the extensive premises occupied by Mr. W. Glanville, car , penter and builder - , and situate in thee Middle-road, Brixton, near the church. The efforts of the neighbours and the police to surmount the flames by throwing water (of which an abundant supply was furniShed from the main of the Lambeth Waterworks) proved to be completely futile, owing to the com bustible nature of the stock, which cistriprisetl a Itirsie quantity of dry timber, art 1. before the arrival of the West of England engine from the Waterlood-road station, and of other engires of the fire brigade, the workshop and business premises of Mr. Glanville were reduced to a mass of ruins, and his yrivate resi dence, as well as the adjoining house, ocenisied by att. Watson, were with difficulty saved. The extent of the loss could not at the moment be ascertained ; the proprietor, 31r. Glanville, is, however, insured in the Guardian Fire-uffice. SUDDEN AND DISGRACEFUL DEATu.—On Friday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Royal Oak, Pltimmeel-cog, bitepliapel, on the body of a man, nameapel , utiknovviii apparently al.miit forty years old; sopozed tq be an engineer just arrived from Birmingham. Early on Tuesday morning deceased met with some girls in Whitecnapel, and acconinee:., •• house in the above street.

She wt nt to look at him, and found that his head had felled from the pillow, and that he was dead. A sur puss was Galled in, who said that deceased died from apoplexy. N ouott dead." BOROUGH HOP IWAIZE.ET.

The imports of wool since our last have amounted to about 3,200 bales, chiefly from our Colonies. Privately, a full average amount of business is doing both in English and Foreign, and prices are well supported. TALLOW. This market continues firm, and the prices have rather an upward tendency. On the spot it is difficult to get new Y.C. at our quotations of 41s 6d, or good old Y. C. at 41s par cwt. There is very little of the latter description on hand. The price at St. Petersburgh has advanced a little; but there is a large business doing, and the shipments are progressing. The quantity for London up to the 20t1 of August was about 4,000 casks more than at the same time last year. Town Tallow is scarce at 42s to 42s 6d net cash. COAL MARKET.

WAKEFIELD CIIURCII-RATE CONTEST.—TniS con test, after having been continued during foarteen days, closed on Tuesday last, with a majority of fifteen in favour of Inc rate. A scrutiny was demanded of the Vicar, on behalf of the anti-rate party, but this the Rev. Gentleman declined to grant, so that for the present the High Church and intolerant party seems to be victorious. An article in our Supplement explains the discreditable manner in which the triumph has been ob tained. We were informed yesterday, upon very good aut . !' rity, that Mr. Robert Hall, the Deputy-Recorder of borough, has been specially retained by the anti-r.te party to the purpose of contesting the whole ea , e through th e Ecclesi astical Court, and in all other respects with a view to null.fy the whole proceedings. We hear also that notices have been served upon each of the churehwardens and vicar not to sign the rate, on the growl of its illegality ; and that measures wit, be forthwith adopted to contest every point before the justice., of the peace, should the Church party determine to enforce payment of the rate.—Leeds Mercury. " Any iron wheel may be made to travel almo3t noislessly along a railway," says a distinguished lecturer, " by inclosing,its two sides with boarding on thin metallic sheeting, so as to confine a quantity of sawdust in contact with its spokes; sawdust being anti-vibratory, will effectually prevent the wheel vibrating, thus enabling it to roll without noise. All who are interested in lessening the noise of railway wheels should make this easy method as public as possible, so that railway directors may be ur ged to adopt a pla n so i nexpensive, e ffi cacious, aad desirable, ATTE:III'I'ED SUICIDE.—On Friclay morning a most determined attempt at suicide was made by T. Heady, Esq., a gentleman re.iitling in Clarendon-square, Somers-town. iilr. H. has been in a very desponding state for some time past, owing to losses by speculation in railway shares. Yesterday morning the servant took him up the hot water fur shaving, and as he did not come down to breakfast with his usual punctuality, his landlady went up to his bed-room ;en entering which she found Mr. Heady lying upon the bed, bleeding pro tuaely from a wound in the throat that he had inflicted with a ras.ir. Medical assistance was obtained and the wound closed, and none of the principal arteries being injured, it is expected he will recover.
