The large estates of Mr. Mostyn in this vicinity (estimated at a little short of 100,0001) are doomed to the uncertain fate of the ham mer, in 74 lots, at the Hotel in this said town, and Mr George Robins, from London, has been retained, by virtue of a long brief and heavy fee, to conduct this cause. Curiosity will be greatly awakened for miles around to see and hear this gentleman of the hammer, whose fame has extended throughout the world. It may be conjec tured the result will be very favourable to Mr. Mostyn. Our only doubt is, that the large room will not be suffi ciently capacious to hold one-half of his auditory.—North Wales Chronicle. NEW THEORY OF CONSUMPTION.—Last evening, Dr. Cronin, physician to the Strand Dispensary, delivered a Lecture at the Mechanics' Institution, Chancery-lane, on the subject of Consumption. He traced this dreadful disease from its commencement, mentioning the various supposed causes from whence it arises, and quoted many authorities on the subject. Dr. Cronin, in differing from other medical men, asserts that consumption does not arise from the depo sit of tuberculous matter in the lungs ; but that the muscular system, losing its healthy action from debility, occasions the ribs to fall in on the lungs, whence congestion arises,—next inflamation, and the consequence is ulceration. The lecturer instanced, that if any part of the body were to be pressed upon by any substance for a continuance, the results would be similar. Dr. Cronin then introduced several of his patients, who one and all bore testi mony to the efficacy of his mode of treatment, and spoke warmly as to the benefits they had received. The mode of operation was next exhibited, and the effect that would be produced shown on the human frame, illustrated by diagrams. The lecturer was frequently applauded by a numerous and respectable auditory. FANCY BAZAAR AT CHELSEA. COLLEGE...—. The arrangements for the fancy bazaar, to be held in the fine old grounds of Chelsea College, after the ceremony of laying the first stone of the Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Chest, by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, are on a scale of unusual splendour, the intentions of the managers being to realise in this country the Italian Festa. The de signs for tents submitted by Mr. B. Edgingten, and approved by the Committee, are admirably adapted to the occasion. The tents will be spacious, most convenient, and picturesque. Several are to be highly ornamental; and one of these is to be assigned to Gunter's ices and refreshments. In addition to the distinguished band of Prince Albert's Regiment, two other full military , bands will perform in the gardens during the day. Prince Albert is to lay the first stone at - Bro m p ton, at one o'clock, and the bazaar will be opened immediately , afterwards. The Committee throughout have been inde fatigable • we trust their spirited exertions for the good cause in which they have laboured will meet the full reward they so well merit.

Most of the vessels were in tow of steam-tugs. AERIAL SIIAVING.—Last week half a dozen of the male denizens of Thaxted, escorted by a barber with all a pparatus of his craft, ascended the fine platform erected by the sappers and miners on the spire of their parish church, and there between earth and air they were comfortably taken by the nose and shaved, to the no small amusement of those who enjoyed the joke below.—Chelmsford Chronicle. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 8, 1844. COURT CIRCULAR.

At ten o'clock their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, attended by Baroness Ahlefeldt, left the Lancaster Tower for town. Their Royal High nesses travelled by the Great Western R a ilway. At half-past ten o'clock the cavalry escort arrived from the barracks. The Emperor of Russia shortly af terwards descended from his apartments into the quad rangle, and inspected the escort, which was composed of the Ist Life Guards. His Imperial Majesty also ad dressed the officer in command, the Marquis of Wor cester. The Emperor was joined by his Royal High ness Prince Albert and the Icing of Satony.

A second class of the Wokingliam Stakes proved a welcome addition to a list that previously had boasted very slender pretensions ; fur this and the other engage ments the fields were large, the sport excellent, and the results favourable to the fielders. The company was quite as numerous as is usually seen on the last day, and the weather propitious. In the course of the morning John Day's objections to Bloodstone, the winner of the New Stakes, were gone into. They were three in number, viz.—that he is more than two years old; that his owner or part-owner is in arrear for stakes; and that his nomination is wrong as to pedigree. The whole ca=e turned upon the first point, arid Messrs. Field and Itrry, veterinary surgeons, hav ing, on examination of his mouth, unhesitatingly given an opinion that he is three years old (Old England hav ing also been inspected by them, and pronounced to have a two-year-old mouth), the stewards awarded the stakes to John Day. They . went into the evidence with regard to the instructions given by Mr. J. Newman, and passed a resolution that Mr. Newman was proved to have given orders to Bell to lose the race, and that the latter's con duct—first in mentioning the circumstance to his master (Planner), and afterwards in riding to win—was highly creditable to him. The consequence of the decision as to the age is, that the bets, as well as the stakes, go with Old England. • The races commenced at one o'clock with a Match, 501, last half mile.—Lord March's Jewboy, by MU3, 2 yrs, Bst 41b (Rogers), beat Capt.

Of the manner in which it has been con ducted throughout, and of - the anxiety shown by the Master of the Buck Hounds, and his zealous and most efficient Clerk of the Course, Mr. Hibburd, to promote the comfort and accommodation of all who had any business transactions with the meeting, it would be un grateful not to speak in the highest terms of acknow ledgment. We are happy to state, in conclusion, that irrespective of the magnificent gift of the Emperor of Russia, the prospects of 1845 are of the most brilliant description. FRENCH PLAYS. The Life Guards escorted the illustrious party from the Castle to the Slough station of the Great Western Railway, where a special train was in readiness to convey the august party to town. The royal standard was immediately lowered from the Round Tower on the departure of her Majesty. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, left the Castle tone o'clock, for Slough, and were conveyed from that station to town, by a special train. The Queen and Prince Albert, the Emperor of Russia and the King of Saxony, and the royal suites, arrived at Buckingham Palace, at twelve o'clock, in the same order in which they quitted the Castle. The Lord Chamber lain receiving the august party on alighting from their ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. Mademoiselle Dejazet, the fascinating, clever espicyle Dejazet, the favourite, par excellence, of the French and the English public, made her first appearance here for the season last evening. Who that has ever seen Dejazet does not wish to see her again? What wonder, therefore, that the theatre was crowded with her ad mirers, who hailed her appearance with a genuine English shout of welcome. She is the same Dejazet as ever, as charming, as fascinating, as arch, as coquettish, as versatile, and as volatile; and the character she chose for debut, that of Marie in the comedie vaudeville of Madame Favart, affords her ample opportunity for the display of her talents and accomplishments. Marie is a young girl of respectable connections, but in reduced circumstances, who is living with her old father. She is beloved by M. Favart, afterwards the celebrated founder of the Opera Comique, but who at the time in which the action of the play is laid is merely commenc ing his career as a dramatic author.—Marie determines to go upon the stage, and as Madlle. de Chantilly makes a most successful debut. The celebrated Marshal Saxe is her great patron. and Favart becomes jealous, without reason, as far as Marie is concerned, although the Mar shal is most desirous of being received as her professed admirer. She, however, contrives, by her admirable management, not only to pacify Favart, but to get the Marshal to bestow upon him the office of Director of the Opera Comique, and at length, with the Marshal's consent, she becomes Madame Favart. Her acting throughout was exquisite, and her singing beautiful ; and in the course of the piece she appeared in a variety of costumes, all of which set off her personal charms to great advantage. In her peasant's costume she was perfectly bewitching. She was called for at the con clusion, being led forward by M. Ithozevil, who had sup - ported her admirably in the character of Favart She was enthusiastically applauded, and bouquets were showered upon her from all parts of the theatre. Ma dame Favart was preceded by Monsieur et une Dame, and followed by a new vaudeville, entitled La Polkaen Province, which is one of the pleasantest and most laughable absurdities to which the Polkamania has as yet given rise. carriage. A dejeune was served to the illustrious guests. In the afternoon his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia left the Palace, attended by Baron Brunnow. His Majesty the King of Saxony also left, attended by his Excellency Baron Gersdorff, the Earl of Morton, Lord in Waiting, and Lord Charles Wellesly, Equerry in Waiting.. His Majesty went to Stafford House, where he was received by the Duke and Duch ess of Sutherland, who conducted his Majesty through the interior of the mansion. On leaving Stafford House the King went to the new palace of Westminster, and also viewed both Houses of Parliament. His Majesty and suite also inspected West minster Abbey, and then returned to Buckingham Palace. The Emperor of Russia, attended by Baron Brunnow, returned to Buckingham Palace at half-past six o'clock. At a quarter past two o'clock, the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice arrived at Buckingham Palace, from Windsor Castle. The Hon. Miss Lister has succeeded the Hon. Miss Devereux as one of the Maids of Honour in Waiting on the Queen. The Queen gave a State Dinner last evening at Buck ingham Palace. The guests appeared in court dress. The dinner was served precisely at eight o'clock, at which hour her Ma jesty and Prince Albert and their august visitors entered the dining-room. The company consisted of the Emperor of Russia, the King of Saxony, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duchess of Buecleueb, Lady Caroline Murray, Baron Brunnow, the Russian Minister ; Baron Gerardorff, the Saxon Minister ; the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl Delawarr, the Earl of Jersey, the Earl of Aber deen, the Earl of Hardwicke, the Earl of Morton, Lord Charles Wellesley, Lieut.-Colonel Berkeley Drummond, Lieut.-Colonel Wylde, Count Orloff, le General d'Ad lerberg, M. d'Adlerberg, Prince Wassiltschikoff, Prince Radziwill, Colonel Glasenap, Dr. Beinolds, M. de Minck witz, Count A. Vitzthum, Baron de Reichart, and Dr. Carus. The band of the Coldstream Guards were in attend ance, and performed the following pieces during the banquet:— The Prince of Wales's March Costa. Grand Potpourri on Russian airs, dedicated to his Imperial Majesty, the Emperor Nicholas. Labitzky. Quadrille, the real Scotch Selection from the Bohemian Girl Balfe. Valse, the Bird of Paradise Kcenig. Polka (as danced at the Opera) .. Pugni. Her Majesty afterwards gave an evening party in honour of her august visitors. The invitations included the members of the diplomatic corps, and upwards of 200 of the nobility and gentry. The Foreign Ministers appeared in their respective costumes, the officers of the army and navy in their dif ferent uniforms, the Ministers of State and officers of the Royal Household in their official costumes, the members of the orders of knighthood wearing their respective insignia. Her Majesty's Honourable Corps of Gentlemen-at- Arms were on duty in the Green Drawing-room, com manded by their Lieutenant, the Hon. Sir Edward But ler. Mr. James Bunce Curling, Clerk of the Cheque, and Sir Benjamin Smith, also attended. The Yeomen of the Guard lined the Grand Hall and staircase. The officers present w er e Sir G. P. Lee, the Li eu tenant; Mr. Ellerthorp, Clerk of the Cheque; and Sir Samual Hancock, Exon in Waiting. The company began to ar r i ve at a quar t er -p as t nine o'clock at the Palace. At half-past nine their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived, attended by Baroness Ahlefeldt and Major Stephens. The Royal Duke was habited in the uniform of his regi ment, the Coldstream Guards, and wore the ensigns of the Russian Order of St. Andrew. The Duke of Richmond, the Duke of Buccleuch, the Marquis of Anglesey, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Marquis and Marchioness of Clanricarde, Sir James and Lady Graham, the Earl of Roden, Viscount and Viscountess Beresford, Sir Robert and Lady Peel, the Lord Chancellor, and Lord Stanley, were among the earlier arrivals.

The Marquis of Londonderry wore the insignia of the Order of the Batb, and of the Russian Order of St. George. The Duke of Devonshire wore the ensigns of the Order of the Garter, the star magnificently sot in dia monds, and the garter itself set in brilliants. Sir Edward Codrington and Sir Charles Napier wore the ensigns of the Order of the Bath, the former as a Kught Grand Cross, and the latter as a Knight Cora mander, with the insignia of several other orders of knighthood. The company, on their arrival, were ushered into the picture gallery. At ten o'clock, the Queen and Prince Albert, accom panied by their illustrious guests, entered the State apartments, preceded by the Lord Chamberlain and the Lord Steward. The distinguished company present had the honour of being introduced to the Foreign Sovereigns.

The aquatic portion of the public were yesterday entertained with a very beautiful race amongst the gentlemen of the Cambridge University Subscription Rooms, London, inter spersed with a variety of amusing accidents, and concluding with the novelty of a dead heat between the second and third boats. The race was as usual for the silver medals, and at a quarter past six the gentlemen whose names had been drawn by lot far crews took their place in the following order, to row from Westminster to Putney-bridge LIGHT BLUE.—J. P. Riehardson,Trinitiy, stroke ;G. Murdoch, John's ; Cooper, Trinity ; Horton, Trinity ; Munster, coxswain. RED.—Cloves, Trinity, stroke ; Pickering, Trinity-hall ; Phelps, Christchurch; Shadwell, John's; Hon. G. Denman, steerer. WurrE.—Ritchie, Trinity, stroke; Selwyn, Trinity; Mar rett, Trinity ; Goldfinch, Trinity ; Ronayne, steerer. BLACK.—Arnold, Caius, stroke ; J. Richardson, Trinity ; Stewart, Trinity ; Nichols, Trinity ; Cox, steerer. GREEN.—Hon. L. Denman, Mag., stroke; Clysold, Trinity; Sharp, Trinity ; Peter, Jesus ; Johnson, steerer. There was a great number of boats, and amongst them we noticed the Royal Academy eight, St. George's ditto, the Leander, six, the Guy's, the Waverley, and others ; and there would no doubt have been a vast assemblage of scullers, but that the wind, which blew briskly, set right against the tide, and rendered wager wherries rather unsafe conveyances. Mr. Phipps, the Honorary Secretary of the Cambridge Rooms, had, with much foresight, ordered the boats to be lowered, in as far as they practically could be before the start, and but for this precaution, in all probability, some serious results might have attended the race, as it was the parties had some difficulty to keep afloat—one, indeed, could not. The start took place at half-past six, and was beautifully managed, the whole of the parties getting away together, save Black, who did not take their water at the same mo ment as their adversaries. 'White took the lead, closely waited upon by Green, Light Blue and Red being oar and oar. There was some very beautiful rowing against a dead noser all the way up Lambeth reach, where Black rowed up to the leading boat, and after some sharp pulling obtained the first place, and went through Vauxhall-bridge in advance, White being second, and Red and Light Blue close astern. The latter was making strenuous efforts for the lead, and at the Belgrave-dock passed White and Red, while Green were digging their way in the lumpy water on the Surrey shore, without much apparent chance of bettering their condition. The whole of the boats had more or less shipped a great deal of the surf, and the coxswains, independently of handling the yoke lines, were busily engaged baling out the water with their hats, &c. About half-way between the Red House and Battersea-bridge, Green came up to White, and passed them, and just about Battersea-bridge the latter were so water-logged that they were obliged to go ashore and turn their boat up, which they very quietly did, taking to her again and finishing the distance. Black continued the lead, and gradually went further in advance, whilst Light Blue and Red passed and re-passed three times, making the most gallant and beautiful race all the way home. Black won by upwards of half a dozen lengths, Light Blue and Red were in the arch together, and made a dead heat, although Red seemed to have a foot the best at entering. Green was fourth. The gentlemen afterwards dined at Aviss's, the Bells Tavern. he The celebrated tenor Donzelli has resumed the stage. He has recently appeared at Ferrara, in Mercadante's opera Il Bravo, and was received with enthusiastic applause. He is engaged for the ensuing season at the San Carlos, at Naples. s v ,* Aberdeeli, Liverpool, Jersey, Bruce, Ripon, Lucan, • adopted fora great and impressive manifestation of national ARREiTiTi COUNTnt-,AwsKi ..›.

The Noble President having briefly opened the business of the meeting, the secretary was called upon to read the report. The report stated at length the progress and present state of the Institute, and gave an abstract of its statistics and finances, which showed it to be in a very flourishing condition, both as to its members and funds ; there being 1,255 members, including those families entitled to the privilege of member ship, and a vested capital of 4,000/. in the Three per Cent. Consols, and assets to the value of 5,0004 and liabilities to the extent of 2,0001. only. The report appeared to give the greatest satisfaction, and the motions for its adoption, printing, and distribution among the members, were carried unanimously. A vote of entire satisfaction with the management of the past year was then passed with the same unanimity, as well as separate votes of thanks to the Earl of Devon for the deep interest and great attention bestowed by him on the affairs of the Institute; thanks to Mr. Buckingham for his able and satisfactory management and superintendence; and thanks to the Committee for their zealous and successful co-opera tion in prorroting the general welfare of the society; all of which were carried with unanimity ; and The Earl of DEVON, on returning thanks for the confidence reposed in him, bestowed a high eulogium on the character of Mr. Buckingham, and bore testimony to his indefatigable labours and great ability, to which he considered the success of the Institute to be almost wholly attributable. After which the meeting separated. DESTUCTIVE FIRE AT HUDDERSFIELD.—Preperty to the extent of 30,0001. to 40,0001. in value was destroyed by fire on Monday morning last, at Folly-hall, near Hudders field. Between one and two o'clock in the morning flames were discovered bursting out from the third floor of the large factory at Folly-wharf, the property of Mr. Joseph Kaye. Messengers were quickly dispatched for fire-engines to Ar mitage-bridge and Milnes-bridge ; and the fire-engine be longing to the factory and that of the Leeds and Yorkshire Insurance Company at Huddersfield were immediately set to work, as were also the engines which speedily arrived from the former places ; but, notwithstanding there was a plen tiful supply of water, the whole of the buildings in which the fire originated fell a rapid prey to the element. As it was soon evident that the fire had a large hold, owing, in a great measure, to the inflammable nature of the contents of the mill, the efforts of those who worked the engines were soon directed to the preservation of another large mill, a little to the south of the one now consumed, and also the property of Mr. Kaye. Hap pily, though the heat from the adjoining conflagration melted a great portion of the lead forming the roof of the second mill, and did great damage to the doors and windows, the efforts of the firemen were successful in saving the second mill from destruction. The mill or factory which was de stroyed was about 63 yards long, 18 wide, and 24 in height to the eaves, above which were attics, and without these there were five stories. It was divided into a number of rooms, with steam power to each, and occupied by separate persons or firms. By the conflagration an immense quantity of property, amounting at least in value, as we have said before, to thirty or forty thousand pounds, was destroyed. Five hundred persons have been thrown out of employment, and several of the occupiers of steam power ruined. Most of the latter class of persons had not their property insured, and Mr. Kaye's property was only partially insured. His loss we understand, will not be less than 20,0001 . T h e on l y accident that occurred in connection with the fire was to a youth about seventeen years of age, who had his arm frac tured by a coping-stone falling upon it. The origin of the fire has not been positively ascertained, but rumour ascribes it to the spontaneous combustion of a quantity of shoddy, or - devil's dust. LONDON AND YORK RAILWAY.—A general meet ing of the provisional committee for the construction of this new line of railway was held yesterday morning at the Hall of Commerce, Threadneedle-street. The Right Hon. the Earl of Winchilsea occupied the chair. Mr. J. H. Astell, the chairman of the acting committee stated, that that commit tee having been appointed for the purpose of adopting mea -1 sures for amalgamating the two companies then before the public, viz. the Great Northern Company, and the London and York via Lincoln Company, each having in view tke connecting the metropolis with the city of York, and ulti mately with Edinburgh, by means of a railroad, had so far succeeded in their object, that henceforward the two companies would act together in an harmonious spiri The committee had also appointed Mr. Locke, the en gineer to decide upon the merits of the respective lines. Mr. Pitman, the secretary, then read the report of the acting Committee, the contents of which, however, may be gathered from Mr. Astell's speech. The Noble Chairman said he fully concurred in all that the report contained, and added that he should be happy to give his most cordial sup port to either line that the engineer might prefer; even though, regarding it in a personal point of view, the other might be more advantageous to himself. Upon the motion of Viscount Ilowick, M.P., seconded by Sir G. Strickland, M.P., the report was then agreed to; as was a motion ap pointing a Committee of twenty-four gentlemen, with full power to take all necessary measures to carry out the under taking. The Committee was subsequently nominated; and, upon the motion of Mr. E. B. Denison, M.P., seconded by the Hon. Octavius Duncombe, M.P., a vote of thanks was pissed to the Noble Chairman, when the meeting separated. THE BRADFORD l U RDER.—WE inserted in The Sun an account of a murder committed on an inoffensive musician named Benjamin Gott, wi had attended a proces sion of some Orange clubs, by a mob of Ir;.!hmen at Bradford, in Yorkshire. After a long investigation barn . .? Mr. Pollard and Mr. Kaye, two of the Magistrates of the `Pea* Ridi ng, four Irishmen of the names of Thomas Rogan, John o;22lenr Daniel Donovan, and William Quin, have been committedio York Castle, for trial at the ensuing assizes, on the charge( of " Wilful murder of the said Benjamin Gott;" and a man named Daniel Power has been admitted to bail, himself in 1001:, and two sureties in 501. each, to answer a similar theage when called upon. Costa's opera, Don Carlos, is:in active rehearsal at her Majesty's Theatre. This is likely to be the only opera tic novelty this season. Ricci's Corrado d'Altamara is per , poned, and Persiani's opera, I/ Fantasma, meets with an obstacle in the cast of the part, M. Persiani objecting to the one allotted to Mdlle. Favanti. WOOLWICH DOCKYARD.—Under the superintend. dence of Capt. Denison, Civil Engineer, of her Majesty's. Dockyard, Woolwich, a considerable enlargement of that. establishment is about to take place. For some time past much inconvenience has been felt in consequence of want oC room by the boiler makers belonging to the yard. RAILWAY BlLLS.—Before the gallery of the House of Lords was opened yesterday, the following Railway Billa were read a second time :—viz., South-Eastern Railway Bill, Whitehaven and Maryport Railway Bill, Salisbury Branch Railway Bill„ and South Devon Railway Bill. BRAINTREE.—A meeting of the Directors of the Braintree Corn Exchange was held on Tuesday last, at the Horn Inn, Braintree, when a dividend of 4i per cent. was declared on the shares. William Walford, jun., Esq., and Mr. John Taylor, of Hediugham, were unanimously elected treasurer and chairman, in the room of George Nottidge,jun., Esq. res igned.—Essex Standard. Ltensive preparations are on foot by Mr. Cnbbitt, at the Belgrave Works, Thames-bank, to receive the Empe ror of Russia and the King of Saxony, who have expressed a desire to witness the power of steam in that extensive factory. THE WAKEFIELD CoLuEns.—These men yet re main out, with the exception of the pits named by us before, and we see no likelihood of the dispute being amicably settled, as both masters and men do not appear willing to make any compromise ; this we regret, as we think some amicable ar rangement might, perhaps, have been made. The shop keepers have begun to feel the effects of the strike in a dimi nished exchequer, and great complaints are made of the scarcity of money,- Wakefield Journal. RAILWAY FARES.—The following remarks upon the high fares maintained by the Railway Companies of this country, from the reports of the Parliamentary Select Com mittee on Railways, are well deserving of publicity and at tention :—" Great as have been the benefits of railways to the public, that circumstance does not afford any good rea son against seeking, by any just and reasonable means, to enlarge these advantages. Now, it is material to observe, that in this country what is called the high-fare system, ordinarily prevails ; that the average charge of railway communication, a charge falling, in no inconsiderable degree, on trade and commerce,' is very much higher than in other countries where railways have been established ; and that there is no clear or early prospect of a general reduction of the rate of charge under the present system of independent Companies, even although it might be possible that that great experiment might be tried, if it were tried fully and univer sally, with no unfavourable results, even upon immediate re turns. It is a question which the Committee are far from wouldthinking N t v h o e u rn l d s e n l o v t e ms e a a l) d l e v a i s t a p b r l e e sent that t t o h d e e G t e o r m v e r n in e m , o w n h t e s t h h o e u r d i t at a future period, endeavour to effect a material reduction of this charge ; and, although on the one hand, it would be premature and most unwise in any degree to prejudge this question, yet, in the opinion of the Committee, it is desirable to reserve to public authority the means of forming a judg ment upon it, when a proper time shall have arrived, at least in all those cases with regard to which the Legislature does not stand committed, by proceedings already taken, to a different course." It may be mentioned, to show the diffe rence between fares in America and England, that from Bos ton to New York costs only 9s. 6d., although it is about 200 miles ; and from New York to Albany, 160 miles, 6s. blight this not be copied with advantage? A NOVEL DEFENDANT.—Many of the inhabitants of Beverley were much amused last week by a case brought before the Magistrates at the Guildhall, which was rendered one of the ;most absurd burlesques perhaps ever enacted within the walls of a court of justice. The subject for inqui ry' arose from an aged and respectable gentleman, a retired bookseller, having been playfully attacked by a large and Alpine spaniel (of the species originally bred by the monks of St. Bernard), whose owner was charged with allow ing the said animal to range about unmuzzled, to the dan gerous annoyance of her Majesty's lieges. The dog being as particular favourite, from the fact of his having descended. from pure stock, and been bred on the rich soil of Bramhans Park, it was net to be endured that a malignant aspersion should be east upon his fame, without a vigorous effort being made by a special pleader in his defence. The bench was, therefore, crowded by members of the learned and legal pro fessions—gentry, bankers, and merchants—who, together with a numerous host from the body of the court, readily' came forward to prove the excellent temper and docility of the animal ; in further proof whereof, he was ordered into court, and actually took his stand erect on the bench, at the right of the worshipful Magistrates, where ho certainly did appear most sagaciously consequential of his notoriety, apci much delighted by the judicial decision in his favour, that he was neither savage nor ferocious, to the evident chagrin of his accuser, but much to the diversion of a large assemblage of spectators.— York Courant.

STATE TRIALS—WRIT OF ERROR. DUBLIN, JUNE 6.—At the sitting of the Court of Queen's Bench this day, Mr. Close applied for a rule to join in error coram nobis, which, being unopposed by the Attorney- General, was granted as a matter of course. The writ of error is to be forwarded to London this evening or to-morrow. POPULAR DEMONSTRATIONS. The whole country has been aroused by the imprison ment of Mr. O'Connell, and an agitation, much more for midable than any I have ever witnessed, is in operation from one extreme of the kingdom to the other. The peculiarity of this movement is, that the Roman Catholic clergy are meeting separately in their dioceses, to proclaim their de voted attachment to the man who led the successful move ment for religious liberty, whilst those clergy, as citizens, merge in the district meetings all through the country. I subjoin an account of some of the latest meetings :- 1 MEETING OF THE CLERGY OF THE ARCHDIO CESE OF CASHEL. On Monday, 3d June, the Roman Catholic clergymen of the Archdiocese of Cashel assembled in conference at Thurles. After the business of the conference had concluded, they held a meeting to prepare an address of sympathy to their beloved Liberator. It was unanimously resolved to forward, in a body, the repeal subscriptions for 1844. They also pledged themselves, one and all, to organise in their respec tive parishes the collection of the repeal rent, and by every constitutional exertion to sustain the father of his country. PUBLIC PRAYERS FOR MR. O'CONNELL. The Tipperary Vindicator contains, in a second edition, the following letter froth the Rev. J. Molony, chaplain to the Right Rev. Dr. Kennedy : " Deerpark, June 4, 1844. "My dear Sir,—l have been instructed by the Right Rev. Dr. Kennedy to request that you will have the goodness to announce in your next publication, that he most earnestly recommends to the clergy of his diocese, that so long as the All-wise Dispenser of events may be pleased to suffer the idol of his country—the illustrious O'Connell—to be immured in a prison, the Litany of the most holy name of Jesus be de voutly offered in every chapel, on every Sunday and holiday, by the priest and the congregation , to implore the protection of Heaven for the Christian patriot and his faithful fellow sufferers: You will be pleased also to announce, that he fur ther recommends that, in the prayer invariably said before mass, after the words For the Queen and all that are in high stations—that we may lead a quiet and holy life,' the following words be immediately introduced, For O'Connell, the father of his country—that, being delivered from all dan gers, he may, with renewed energy both of mind and body, securely accomplish at last the glorious object of his dis tinguished life—the deliverance of his fellow-countrymen from the blighting curses of unchristian and unnatural dis sension.' " I am, my dear Sir, yours, "JOHN MOLONY, R.C.C. " Maurice Lenihan, Esq., Tipperary Vindicator." CITY OF DUBLIN. MEETING OF ST. PAUL'S WARD.—A meeting of the bur gesses of St. Paul's Ward was held yesterday evening, at Reynolds's Hotel, Queen-street, for the purpose of taking into consideration the most effective means for giving expres sion to the feelings with which the inhabitants of that dis trict of the city regard the conduct of the Government in the recent State prosecutions, and also for the purpose of de claring their sympathy with Mr. O'Connell and his fellow sufferers. A series of resolutions were adopted, and it hav ing been agreed that an address, expressive of sympathy and confidence, should be presented to the Liberator, the meeting adjourned. MEETING OF ST. JAMES'S WARD.—There was a very nu merous and most respectable meeting of this ward yesterday. The utmost enthusiasm prevailed, and an address to O'Con nell and the " repeal martyrs" was unanimously agreed to. Arrangements were made for the effective collection of the repeal rent. LINEN HALL WARD.—This ward also assembled yester day. An address to Mr. O'Connell was adopted. The repeal rent collected in this ward since Monday is 1401. MEETING OF TIIE CORPORATION OF DUBLIN. —A special meeting of the town council was held this day, for the pur pose, as set forth in the summons, " of informing her Ma jesty, by way of address, that the man who created a public mind in Ireland, and thereby caused the great measure of emancipation to become law, and raised his fellow-country men to the station of free citizens, is now an inmate of a pri son for a constructive offence, a mode of accusation always deemed odious in a free State, and to pray her Majesty to vin dicate the Constitution and protect the rights and liberties of her Majesty's subjects in Ireland, which have been violated in his person. And further, to petition the Commons' House of Parliament to the same effect, and that the council should present an address of sympathy to their imprisoned brother, Daniel O'Connell." At twenty-five minutes to two o'clock the chair was taken by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor. Councillor KIRWAN moved that the dutiful and loyal ad dress which he held in his hand be presented to her Majesty. He then handed in the address , which was read b y Mr. Ford. It set forth the fraud in the jury list, the striking off the jury all the names of Roman Catholics, and the injustice of confining in a gaol the man who created a public mind in Ireland, pending the trial of a writ of error, and concluded by praying her Majesty to take these matters into her grave consideration. Alderman EGAN seconded the motion. Councillor Tnoaats opposed the motion. Mr. STAUNTON spoke at length in condemnation of the way the trial was conducted, and contended that the address should be adopted in its present form. Alderman Josurn BOYCE could not assent to the address. Mr. ATKINSON supported the proposition. Alderman Burr had no hesitation iu saying that the ad dress would be both unconstitutional and illegal. He con cluded by entering his solemn protest against the address — but if a separate one were prepared, embracing an expression of sympathy to Mr. O'Connell, he would not oppose its adop tion. For the motion... • Against it ••• 6 Majority ... --34 lIN Mr. M‘LouGii then moved the adoption of an address to Mr. O'Connell, which expressed the opinion that the sen tence under which he was suffering was unjust and illegal, and that the punishment was unmerited. Mr. J. DUNNE seconded the motion. Dr. MAtiNsxm, looking upon the address as being from the political friends of Mr. O'Connell, would not vote upon it. He then left the house. Alderman BuTr could not vote for the address. The meeting divided again, when there appeared for the address 40, against it 8. A deputation of the whole Corporation was appointed to present the address. GREAT POPULAR MANIFESTATION, The Wexford Independent contains the following :—" A valued friend in Dublin—one of our country's most effective pairiots--has *Menlo us as follows It is probable that St. Athee Day, June the 24th—being ale Mo n d a y —will be ROBBERY OF A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER AND ALLEGED Hocussixa.—Yesterday, Mr. Payne, the City Coroner, held an inquest at the George, Beech-street, Barbican, on view of the body of Mr. John Hardman, aged 46, a commercial tra veller, who died of an attack of apoplexy, and who was al leged to have been hocussed and robbed. City policeman John M‘Cue, 478, said that on Wednesday night, about twenty minutes to twelve o'clock, he was on duty in Queen-street, Cheapside, when he observed the de ceased, who appeared intoxicated, and was supporting him self by a post. Witness led him to the station-house, Garlick-hill ; but he was not detained there, the inspector thinking him sufficiently sober to be able to take care of him self. He left, stating that he would go home in a cab. About a quarter-past twelve o'clock witness again saw him. He was in Watling-street, with policeman 493, who, hearing from him that he was living at No. 3, Lower Whitecross street, got a cab, into which he entered. William Marshall, the cabman who was hired, said that when he was in Cheapside, the deceased told him to drive to the tap of the Vine Inn, Bishopsgate-street, remarking that he wanted something to drink. The deceased, there, had a glass of ginger beer and a part of a glass of gin to drink. He also treated two women, two men, and witness, and a person* who was with witness. Shortly . after, while deceased was seated on the settle, he was seized with a stupor. He was then placed in witness's cab, and taken home. On opening the door of the cab deceased was found in the bottom of the cab with his head reclining on his chest. He was brought out of the cab by a policeman and witness. Life appeared extinct. He was conveyed into the house, and in a few minutes a surgeon arrived, who said that he was dead. George Fletcher, City policeman 123, said that he searched the deceased after he was in the house, and found a four penny piece in one of his pockets. Mr. Richard Collick, landlord of the Vine tap, said that the deceased changed half-a crown to pay Is. 9d. He after wards bought some sandwiches with the halfpence. He took the half-crown from a long sliding purse, in which there were about seven half-crowns. 'Witness also saw in his pos ses"ion a half-sovereign and a shilling. eceased put the purse in his trousers pocket. The cabman and two other men put deceased in the cab. Mrs. Elizabeth Leech, No. 3, Whitecross-street, stated that deceased bad lodged in her house about six weeks. He was a traveller for a commercial house at Liverpool, where his wife and son are living. The last time she saw him alive was on Monday, when he left to go to Southampton. He had with him a carpet-bag, in which was his wearing ap parel, and two large parcels, containing some maps, all of which are missing. She has only seen deceased twice the worse fur liquor, and he had then been to dinner parties. Deceased never made any complaints of pains in his head, and was always cheerful. Mr. Joseph Mason, surgeon, No. 51, Beech-street, stated that he was called to see the deceased, who had been dead a few minutes. He made a post mortem examination, and discovered the membranes and substance of the brain uni versally congested, which had produced apoplexy and death. The lungs were also congested. These appearances come from natural causes. He did not perceive the smell of any thing deleterious in the contents of the stomach, in which there was no food. The CORONER then asked the jury if they would have the contents analysed? The jury said that they were satisfied with the evidence, and returned a verdict that the deceased's death was caused by " Congestive apoplexy." Thursday, the 20th instant, will be the seventh anniversary of her Majesty's accession to the throne. THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY'S COLLIERIES.— The pitmen lately in the employ of Lord Londonderry, in the county of Durham, still refusing to return to work on the terms stipulated in the proposed new bond, his Lordship has announced his intention to bring over from his Irish lead mines a number of men, who have already been engaged by his agents in that country. During this week upwards of 100 tradesmen and others, residing at Pensher and the neigh bourhood have been sworn in before the county magistrates _ . as special constables, to afford protection to the Irish la bourers on their arrival at the collieries, and to prevent any breach of the peace. Matters are now rapidly hastening to a crisis in the north, and if the pitmen do not immediately return to their employment, their places will, in nearly every colliery, be filled by others who will be glad to accept them. THE LORD CHIEF BARON OF THE COURT OF ExcaEQuEß. — The Lord Chief Baron dined for the first time since his elevation to the Bench at the Middle Temple, on Thursday last, which in legal phraseology, is called the " grand day" of Hilary Term. On these occasions the Judges of the Courts dine at the Inns of Court by which they had respectively been called to the bar. Among the Judges present on Thursday, in addition to the Chief Baron of the Exchequer, were Mr. Justice Patteson and Mr. Justice Coleridge. Lord Kenyon was also there. The Lord Chief Baron wore his official costume, and was loudly cheered by a crowded hall. His Lordship repeatedly acknowledged the compliment. A CCIDEN TS RETURNING FROM ASCOT RACES.- On Thursday afternoon two accidents of a serious nature oc curred to parties returning from Ascot, the particulars of which are as follow :—The first occurred to a young gentle man named Henderson, the son of a captain in the Royal Navy, who, whilst driving a tandem along the Brompton road, the fore horse stumbled and fell, and the hind one fall ing on him, the vehicle was capsized, the shafts broken, and Mr. Henderson and his servant thrown head foremost upon the horses, both of them having become entangled in the harness and kicking furiously. The servant fortunately es caped unhurt, but on picking up his master it was found that one of his arms was broken, and that he had received several severe kicks about the head and face. A medical gentleman was promptly on the spot, who accompanied Mr. lienderson in a cab to the residence of his friends in Victoria-square, Pimlico. The second accident, which was of a more alarm ing nature than the above, occurred to a man named Black well, residing at Edward's-place, Kensington, who fell head long from the driving-box of a pleasure-van at Hounslow, and, pitching on his head, received such severe injury it is not expected he can possibly recover. STATE or TRADE.—The accounts received by the Overland Mail from Calcutta and China, are very favourable for cotton goods. Woollens were not doing so well, and in China the exchange had fallen somewhat. The accounts from Bombay report heavy sales, but at somewhat lower prices. Cotton had risen materially, and what came in of the new crop was purchased principally for China. We had more doing in cotton this week, and a decidedly more healthy feel ing, no attempt being made to force off cotton below market rates; beyond this, perhaps, no advances can be quoted. The heavy arrivals will cause buyers to come in; and we may soon hope that prices will become settled, and a steady regu lar business ensue. In Manchester there was a fair business doing for yarns for Russia and Germany. Domestics and printed cloths were more inquired for; but shirtings, previ ous to the arrival of the overland mail, were dull of sale and lower. The rain has come most opportunely for the spring crops, and there is a promise of an unusually early and abundant wheat harvest. We must, we fear, be sometime before the machinery of the new sugar duties can be got into operation, as to confer much benefit on the consumer. The West India Mails bring accounts of drought there, which has caused much injury to the coffee crop.—Liverpool Journal. A DEED or DARKNESS.—On Monday last, as the navigators employed in the completion of the Ledbury Canal to this city were engaged at Monkmoor in forming a wide ditch close to the hedge adjoining Mr. George's factory, the spade of one of the men came in contact with a human skull, and on further turning up the earth a whole skel The l eton, in a very advanced state of decay, was discovered. frai memorials of mortality lay upon an oak slab, or board, at a depth of about four feet, the hole dug for their reception being filled up with stones and rubbish. From the absence l e e r , ta h i n n t ty fr w o h m eth th e e r the ethreempeali?s, are iftehmac it is impossible these soseofa mtoasle or ayw s a m:l . n m e a n s o e f e r t t h a e i n b l y o n o e f s a i e t i i s n c d o i c u t a u o e f d s t m h a a l t t s h ta e y t u are re; t a h n o d s e t h o e f teeth being very perfect, most likely those of a person in the bloom or full vigour of age. From the circumstance of a drain having been cut through the ground over where the crumbling skeleton lay, without any discovery of the body, there is little doubt that the interment took place before the inclosure of the common, and therefore the deceased has pro bably lain in the eartk for a period of sixty years. The spot is secluded, and at that period must, even though open, have been ono of peculiar loneliness. Whether, however, the re mainsas has a h r e e e t n h s o n s e r s f a d s m frome hapless the b r a e t i h n g e r f o c u a l r l e y fu m l u n d a e n r e n d s r , or, in which they were deposited, of some suicide, or person who died by the hangman, and was consequently denied the rites of Christian burial, is one of those questions on which the mind may speculate with mysterious curiosity, but can arrive at no certain conclusion. Some years ago, a pensioner about 70 years old, on his death-bed, declared that in his younger days he hadmurdered a man, and that the corpse was buried on Monkmoor, but the circumstance was little regarded at the time, and it is in vainto speculate upon it now.---Hereford Journal. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY'S COURT LEET AND COURT BARON.—Yesterday, on the part of his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is Lord of the Manor of Lambeth, a Court Leet and Court Baron was held according to annual custom, nearly forty gentlemen attended the Courts, and some nuisances were presented, which, when removed, will tend materially to improve the parish of Lam beth generally. The business having concluded the attend ants at the Court proceeded to dinner at the Feather's tavern, WaterlQ9-brldge. .711.1.11 `I { ,OC S ' 4 , ,c3q sk w, °e .4 - I 0
