To each of his labourers who have been in his employ for ten years, the number of whom are fifty, he has left ten guiueae. The CHAIRMAN, having shortly stated the object of the meeting, in calling which, he observed, the directors had exercised sound discretion, proceeded to congratu late his auditory on the number of all parties exten sively engaged in the cotton trade, who had met there in harmony, to take into consideration a question in which a great national interest was involved—namely, the tax on cotton-wool, which was a most oppressive burden to the country and a bounty to their foreign rivals. If, he said, a new material could be found by which industry could be employed, and those engaged in that employ might be raised from poverty to affluence, the Legislature that would repress such advantage by taxation would be thought highly reprehensible ; and such was the fact with reference to the present impost. He dwelt at some length on the vast importance of the cotton trade, and showed the immense increase derived from it by the revenue, by tracing the amount received by the Customs in the port of Liverpool alone from 100,0001. to 4,000,0001., to which it had now reached, but it had become stationary at that point, consequent upon the excessive duties. He referred to the large amount of skill and capital devoted to the promotion of the cotton trade, from the inventions of Crompton to the present time ; and, in illustration of the formidable r.valry growing up in America, read the following com munication, which he had received from a gentleman on the subject : "The cotton manufacturers of the United States aro extending themselves in every direction. The same spirit of enterprise that completed the work at Lowell some twenty years ago, has found its way to the south and the west. In the vicinity of St. Louis there is a manufactory in process of erection ; also one- in the neighbourhood of Tallahassee, Florida. In Arkansas one of an extensive scale has been established ; and at Natchez a cotton and wool factory is now in operation. In South Carolina, several manufactories have been for some time in the full tide of successful experiment. The New England manufacturers are unusually active, and will be through the season." o W pi i t t i h ion res to pe t c h t e are mostly similar in fabrics to those made b y the teoffeacnto—th,e,rTphaartt ot the e t h g e o o s u d b s j e l‘ c , e t, nl h he n c u i f t a e c d tu a r n e Ame ricans, and intended for shipment to the same markets, such as Brazil, Mexico, South America, and latterly China. They consist of heavy plain domestics, stout grey drillings, also dyed and bleached, grey and blue striped drillings, &c., all of which are made from coarse yarn. The duty upon cotton-wool, such as we use, amounts to eleven per cent. ; and, after being made into to th t e he m A a m rk e e r t iea b n y s., ,he ll e e r goods, to five per cent. upon their value.

"The members of the Manchester Chamber of Com merce and Manufactures, in special general meeting as seinbled, respectfully approach your Lordships upon a subject of vital importance to the trade and commerce carried on in the article of cotton. " The vast number of artisans and labourers profitably employed in the cotton trade—the extensive sunk and floating capital embarked in it, together with the skill, energy, and enterprise, by which it is conducted, estab lish for it a national interest and importance ; this branch of our industry supplying more than half of all the exported produce and manufactures of the United Kingdom, as shown by the returns made to the House of Commons, 15th February, 1844. That such a raw material as cotton-wool, which is of necessity an exotic, and which has become indispensable to the employment and existence of multitudes of our workpeople, should be subject to the imposition of an import tax, will pro bably hereafter be regarded as one ( f those delusions in fiscal regulation which have retarded the progress of, and been injurious to, the interests of our country. The tax upon raw cotton has, however, been wisely depre cated by the most distinguished statesmen of modern times, and promises from them of its ultimate extinction are on record. If there be a principle of economy which is now universally received, it is that which recognises the right of exemption from fiscal taxes all those raw materials whereby the labouring classes may earn their subsistence ; and in conformity with this humane and just principle, the duty on sheep's wool was abandoned in the last session of Parliament, the duty upon flax having been abandoned several years ago. And in all articles of export it has been deemed so unjust to tax the mate rials contributing to their manufacture, that it has been the general practice to grant drawbacks for the return upon ce andoan theefand being rheeiireasons, American obnoxiousn s , which of duties exacted in their production as in the cases of e soap, salt, and starch ; and i n th e g l as s and other trades the duties levied are alway s returned o n exports : yet in the article of raw cott on , a b out s i x - s evenths of the manufactured produce of w hi c h are ex ported, there is no return of the tax. Y our L or d s hi ps nee d not be re minded that the treasury o f our countr y w ill always de rive more benefit from th e pro fi ta bl e em pl o y m ent of the people at large, than fro m fi scal exact i ons u p on the raw materials on which th e i r l a b our is expen d e d .

" Since the close of the great European war in 1815, the tendency to enter into the pacific pursuits of trade has been evident on the part of every civilised nation ; but the extension of the cotton trade in the United States of America is the most extraordinary, as the spinners of that country are now consumers of cotton to a greater extent than were the British in 1815: there fore this rapid progress has become evidence to which your memorialists refer, that foreign competition may possibly arise to a ruinous extent; and, as history shows that trade driven from a country rarely returns, it plainly behoves those who control the destinies of our land to consider whether the very existence of the cotton trade in it be not alarmingly endangered by retaining an oppres sive tax upon the raw material of so important and be neficial a trade. Foreign competition has, however, already been increased by the free exportation of British machinery ; and so formidable are the indications of in creased competition, with the very same implements which are used in this country, that if there were no other reason for the repeal of the cotton tax, this alone would be sufficient to render it imperatively requisite. " That the cotton tax operates unfavourably in re stricting the employment, and to some extent in diminish ing the wages, of the workpeople, may be assumed from the exorbitant per tentage which the duty bears upon the labourers' wages. Upon the coarsest heavy yarns produced the duty of five-sixteenths of id. upon Ame rican cotton amounts to fifty per cent, upon the producing wages ; upon the labour employed in spinning yarns for domestic goods the d u ty is from thirty to forty-five per cent. upon the wages ; upon the yarns spun for printed calicoes the duty amounts to twenty-five per cent. upon the wages ; and for a or ttiary muslin upon the yarns spun, the duty becomes only ten per c ent. o f the wages • of labour ; whilst upo n the finest lace yarns, which are produced in limited quantities, the fraction of duty upon the wages of labour is almost inappreciable. As i n juxtaposition the tax upon raw cotton, when compared with wages, is most grievous and oppressive I in the coarsest yarns spun, so that the consumption and weaving of manufactured cotton goods, this tax presses with the most unjust severity upon our own working classes, and upon the least wealthy members of the . I t : o im t p h o e li w t ; c e , ll- ü b n e w in :e, community. " Your memorialists, therefore, submit to your Lord ships, that the tax upon. cotton-wool, whether it be of important viewed on the broad principle of national interest and community engaged in the cotton trade, to promote which it justice,K'i l will sectionsbe and suicidal your memorialists pray your Lordships' powerful aid."

M e mber protested against the imposi tion or retention of any tax whatever, and said it was ge t the taxes off, their business to leavin g to the Minister the duty t of making up the revenue ! Mr. Bright had no fears o competition in America; but, of course, wished free trade, whether this was given him by Lord John This or Sir Robert That. Resolutions were agreed to at the meeting denouncing all imposltiona on trade, and the meeting separated. On Thursday afternoon, after the isiyal party and guests had lunched, the Queen paid a visit to the town of Stamford, very much to the surprise as well as the delight of the good people of the place, who had many of them begun to give up the hope of seeing her Majesty during her stay. At two o'clock in the afternoon the Mayor received an official intimation from the Marquis of Exeter, that it was her Majesty's gracious intention to pass through the principal streets of the town soon after three o'clock. In an incredibly short space of time the whole place became a scene of great excitement, crowds of people assembling in the streets, and thronging the windows along the line through which her Majesty was to pass ; the houses became decorated with ever greens and banners, as if by magic, and the whole place presented a very gay and animated appearance. Ar rangements were at once made by the authorities for the prevention of confusion, by the appointment of special constables to keep the line in the streets. The carriages left the mansion at a quarter to three. Her Majesty and the Prince, together with Lord and Lady Exeter, were in the first carriage ; and Sir Robert Peel, Lord Delawarr, Lady Portman, and the Maid of Honour were in the second. In a third were Lady Middleton and Lady Sophia Cecil. The carriages were preceded by two of Lord Exeter's servants in livery, and followed by a considerable number of gentlemen on horseback, many of them tenants of the Marquis, who formed a sort of escort. The reception given to her Majesty in Stamford was most enthusiastic—indeed, it could not have been lossible for the people to exhibit more warmly their oyalty and affection. The cheers throughout her pro gress were deafening. Her Majesty appeared in excel lent health and spirits. She frequently laughed heartily at the scamperings of the people. _ _ _ The royal party proceeded down St. Martin's and across the bridge (which, by the way, is so narrow as almost to be a discredit to so large a town), until they came opposite the Town-hall. here a vast number of people lined the street on either side, and the windows were crowded with ladies. Passing through St. Mary's, the carriages turned off to the left into High-street. and on to the western entrance of the Infirmary. They returned through St. Paul's -street, Ironmonger-street, Broad-street, and Red Lion-square, and back again through St. Martin's. Having reached the boundary of the to am, they went on to Wothorpe, a village a short distance from Stamford, where there are some ruins of a scat of the Burleigh family. Here the royal party alighted for some time, and saw the Marquis of Exeter's establishment of young horses, which her Majesty much admired. On their return to Burleigh, her Majesty and the Prince inspected the Noble Marquis's stock of cattle, which were brought to the side of the road in the park by which the royal party returned to Burleigh. They are considered to be of very fine breed, and her Majesty and the Prince both much admired them. The Prince had seen them in the morning. On their return from Stamford her Majesty and the Prince each planted a tree opposite the south side of the mansion. The Queen planted an oak, and the Prince a lime tree. The Queen's tree was planted near to a great lime, which was planted by Queen Elizabeth, on the occasion of her visit to Burleigh. During the morning the Prince had been out shooting, accompanied by Sir Robert Peel, Lord Stanley, the Mar quis of Granby, and the Marquis of Salisbury. Mr. An son also accompanied the Prince, but neither he nor the Marquis of Granby were among the sportsman. The Prince shot 45 pheasants, 56 hares, and 10 rabbits. Al together there were 275 head of game shot. In the evening, before dinner, the Mayor of Stamford, Lieutenant Haycock, R.N., presented the address from the corporation and inhabitants of the town, which her Majesty was pleased to accept most graciously. The Mayor of Northampton, Mr. Barwell, who was among the guests invited to the ball, came over early in the evening with a present for the Prince of a pair of very handsome Wellington boots, as a sample of the staple manufacture of the town. They were left with Mr. An son, his Royal Highness having signified his wish to ac cept them. In the course of the evening Mr. Barwell was presented to her Majesty by the Marquis of Exeter. ller Majesty received Mr. Barwell very graciously; and Prince Albert afterwards entered into conversation with him for a few moments, during which he informed him that her Majesty had received very great pleasure from her reception at Northampton. It was also intimated to Mr. Barwell that her Majesty would proceed through Northampton at a walking pace on her return towards Weedon. The dinner was ordered half an hour earlier than usual, as there was to be a ball in the evening. Her Majesty entered the dining-room at a quarter to eight o'clock. The following formed the dinner party Majesty, the Prince, and the royal suite ; the Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, Sir Robert Peel, the Marquis of Salisbury, the Marquis of Granby, the Earl of Aber deen, Earl Delawarr and Lady Mary West, Lord Burleigh, Viscount and Lady Hood, Lord Milton, Mr. Fitzwilliam, Lord Brooke, Lord Lovaine, Lord Thomas and Lady Sophia Cecil, Lord and Lady Charles Welles ley, Lord and Lady Lilford, Sir James Graham, Captain and Mrs. Spencer, Mr. Pierrepont, Sir George Clerk, Sir William and Lady Middleton, and the Rev. Mr. Atlay. The usual toasts were given during dinner, and her Majesty retired from the dining-hall at ten minutes ' past nine. The company invited to the ball began to arrive be fore nine o'clock. The invitations were very numerous, including almost all the chief gentry of the neighbour hood.

At a quarter past ten her Majesty came from her own apartments to the ball-room, when she proceeded to a seat or throne at the end of the room. The Prince sat by the side of the Queen. The chairs were of blue and silver, and were raised upon a dais about eight feet long. The ball was opened by the Marquis of Exeter and Lady Mary West. Lord Burleigh and Sir Rober Gunning were in the first quadrille. Dancing then com menced generally, and was kept up till a late hour. Her Majesty and the Prince retired at half-past eleven to the supper-room, where they remained a few minutes. On Friday morning her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the suite left Burleigh at half-past nine o'clock, on their return to London. Her Majesty had previously taken leave of the Marchioness of Exeter and the rest of the family. The Marquis accompanied her Majesty on horseback one stage, and then went on in his carriage to be ready to receive her Majesty at Weedon. As the royal party passed through the park and ronnd that portion of St. Martin's, in Stamford, through which their route lay, they were greeted with loud cheers by crowds of the inhabitants who had assembled to witness the departure. All along the route from Stamford to Kettering the same demonstrations of loyalty and affection were made by the people as on her Majesty's journey down. The triumphal arches had all remained up, and the houses were very gaily decorated with flags, evergreens, &c. The royal party changed horses at the same stages as on their journey down. At Kettering also there was a great demonstration by the people. here the royal party passed one of the car riages containing her Majesty's dressers, who had pre ceded her from Burleigh, but had been stopped at a short distance from Kettering by their horses (post horses) being so utterly worn out with fatigue as to be unable to proceed a step further. Every horse for miles round having been bespoken, other horses could not be ob tained, and it will be seen that this circumstance was the cause subsequently of a very inconvenient delay to her Majesty at Weedon. At Northampton her Majesty was received by the mayor and corporation and a procession of the town trades, in the same manner as on her journey derwn. They preceded the royal carriages as they went at a walking pace through the town. At the town and station of Weedon great numbers of people had collected. The military (47th Foot) lined the road, and there was a guard of honour (of the 47th) under the command of Captain Gordon. The Marquis of Exeter, who had arrived previously, and Sir Henry Dryden, the High Sheriff of the county, were at the station to receive her Majesty. At a quarter past two the approach of her Majesty to the station was announced by the elevation of the royal standard, and in a few minutes more the royal party entered the station. Her Majesty and the Prince went to their apartments. A delay was caused here by the non-arrival of the carriage that had been stopper. at Kettering. The delay was not only a source of personal inconvenience to the royal travellers, but it also caused an interference with tke regular passenger trains. Her Majesty waited till a quarter to three o'clock, when she determined to go without the carriage ; but, just at this moment it entered the station, drawn by horses that booked as if they would have dropped had they been required to proceed another mile. The carriage was at once attached 'to the train, and her Majesty entered her state carriage, accompanied by the Prince. The Prince shook hands with the Marquis of Exeter, and the train started, amidst the cheers of the people, at five minutes to three o'clock. The regular train had not long pre ceded it, so that great precaution was required. The special train, however, came on at a rapid rate, and reached the Camden-town station at ten minutes past five o'clock. From here the train was backed, and turned on the down line, and it reached the Euston terminus at twenty minutes past five o'cicck. Her Majesty immediately left for Padddington, escorted by a party of the 17th Lancers. It was stated that three children had been killed by the falling of a scaffolding at Northampton. The accident was not attended with those fatal consequences. The children are now quite well. THE INQUEST ON SERGEANT ANDREWS. On Friday forenoon, Mr. Wakley, M.P., coroner for the Western Division of Middlesex, and a jury of fifteen householders of Hampstead, assembled at the Coach and Horses Inn, Heath-street, to pursue an inquiry into the melancholy circumstances connected with the death of Thomas Andrews, Esq., aged 68, sergeant•at-law. Considerable interest was felt in the proceedings. In addition to several medical gentlemen, the inquest-room was also crowded by gentlemen of the legal profession, and personal friends of the deceased. Tlie jury having been sworn, proceeded to view the body, which lay in the sleeping apartment of the un fortunate gentleman, at his late mansion on Hampstead hill. The wound in his throat was horizontal, about two inches and a half in length, and of considerable depth, having completely severed the windpipe to the extent described. On the return of the jury the evidence was entered into as follows: Sarah Priest deposed she was a married woman, and resided in Medway-street, Som ers -t own . Sh e was a nurse, and had formerly acted in that capacity in the family of the late Mr. Sergeant Andrews. She was present at the death of that gentleman, which took place at half-past one in the morning of Wednesday last. She had been sent for by Mr. Headland, surgeon, of Guilford-street, on the previous Thurs day, to attend on Mr. Sergeant Andrews. On her arrival she found him in bed, and that he had a wound in his throat. The medical gentlemen in attendance on the deceased were Mr. Evans and Mr. Headland. She attended him from the time she had mentioned up to the period of his death, but she was wholly incapable of forming any opinion as to the state of his mind. He did not object during that period to anything which was done for him by the medical men, and the only remarks she heard him make were complaints of great pain in the head. The CORONER—Of what part of the head did he complain ? Witness—He would frequently put his hands up to either side of his head, and exclaim " Oh, my head. Oh, the pain is more than I can bear." Mrs. Andrews, Mr. Willing, Mr. Evans, and Mr. Headland were present at the time deceased died. Mr. Herbert Norman Evans deposed that he was a surgeon, and resided at Hampstead. About half-past three o'clock in the afternoon of Thursday week he was sent for, to attend Mr. sergeant Andrews, who he was informed had inflicted a wound in his throat. On going to the residence of the learned sergeant, he found him lying on a sofa in the front parlour, and Mr. Willing, a neighbouring chemist, in attendance. He had a large wound inflicted horizontally in the front of the throat, and appeared very weak from loss of blood, although there was not much bleeding at that time. Witness examined the wound, the pressure of which enabled deceased to speak, but he did not do so immediately. I was told that he -had been found by Mrs. Andrews lyin on the rug in the front parlour with his throat cut, bleeding profusely, with a razor by his side. That he had been lying in bed all day, in conse quence of having a bad headache. lle had been seen there some short time before by his lady, having nothing on but his stockings, drawers, and night-dress, and was found in that condition. On examination of the wound, he found that it had entered the windpipe, in which there was a large opening. Thought the case serious from the first on account of deceased's age, and the fact that lie had been an invalid for many years ; there were, however, no very serious symptoms, up to the night of his death. Was sent for by Mrs. Andrews about eleven o'clock on Tuesday night last, and was then told there had been internal bleeding, but there was only slight in dication of such being the case. He sat by deceased up to a quarter-past one on Wednesday morning, when at that time he suddenly jumped up in bed, and the blood poured profusely from the nose and mouth, and in a few seconds after he ceased to exist. The CORONER—To what did you attribute the bleed ing you allude to ? Witness—To some internal vessel having given way, in consequence of a violent fit of coughing with which deceased was seized at the time. The CORONER—What was the immediate cause of death? Witness—Suffocation. The CORONER—So then you do not ascribe it to the wound in the throat? Witness—l think if he had not inflicted the wound in his throat he would have been alive now. I think, however, it was a vessel in the lungs gave way, and the internal bleeding caused suffocation. The CORONER—How do you know that it was a vessel of the lungs? Witness—That was my surmise. The CORONER—If a vessel gave way in the lungs, in stead of the wound :in the throat aiding suffocation, it would be likely to prevent it by allowing the blood to escape. Mr. Headland here stepped forward, and said, as the medical attendant of deceased for some years, that Ser geant Andrews was subject to bleeding of the lungs, but although that was the case, they had agreed that the primary cause of death was the wound. The CORONER said that would not do. The doubt which Mr. Evans had raised could not be removed with out a post mortem examination. In such a case as the present it was of the utmost importance to the family of deceased and others that the precise cause of death should be ascertained, and for this purpose the inquiry must be adjourned. The inquiry was then adjourned accordingly. The inquest was resumed on Saturday, when Mr. Herbert Norman East, surgeon, was called in and examined. In reply to questions from Mr. Mills, he said that he had, on the previous day, stated that he had been in attendance on the deceased from within a few minutes of the time of the violence upon him self until his death. Mr. Mills—You have, since the meeting of the inquest, made a post mortent examination ?—Yes, I have, in conjunction with Mr. Headland and another gentleman. Have you found, from that examination, what vessel it was that the bleeding proceeded from ?—Not exactly from what vessel, but it was from the left lung. Did the bleeding proceed in any way from the wound in the throat ?—Not at all. There was no bleeding from any vessel in or near the wound. Where did the bleeding, then, proceed from ? From the left lung, and there might have been a small quantity from the right one. The left lung, upon examination, was dense, as it were, with blood. It was in this state almost throughout; indeed all of it, except the lower part. The air cells, too, were com pletely filled with blood. Was there evidence, from the appearance of the lungs, that there had been a prior existing disease ? Disease had no doubt been going on for some time in the lungs, but more particularly in the left lung. The witness then entered into a detailed descrip tion of the internal appearances of the body, from which appearances he said there could be no doubt but that death had been caused, not by any effusion of blood from the wound, but from an effusion from some vessels of the left lung. Mr. Wakley—What, then, do you now say caused the death of the deceased ?—I should say death was caused by the large pouring out of blood from the left lung, which produced suffocation. Mr. Wakley then said, from tlle evidence which they had now heard, it appeared perfectly clear that death had ensued from suffocation produced by natu ral causes; and the jury returned the following ver dict :—" That the death of the deceased was caused by hsemorrhage from natural causes, which produced a flow of blood into the lungs." EXTRAORDINARY SPORT AT lIIS GRACE THE DUKE OF RUTLAND'S.—On Tuesday week, in a small cover called the " Links," near Newmarket, his Grace the Duke of Rutland, Colonel Anson, Mr. Stanley, and Mr. Fairlie, with only four hours' shooting, bagged the extraordinary number of 714 head of game—namely, hares, 336 ; pheasants, 265 ; partridges, 33 ; rabbits, 80 ; and the following day upwards of 50 hares, pheasants, &c. (wounded the previous day), were picked up. Out of the four hours' shooting, two of the party were absent an hour and a half, attending a meeting at Newmarket —namely, his Grace the Duke of Rutland ani Mr. Fairlie. In the evening a considerable portion of the game was distributed to the tenantry, tradespeople, &c.—Leicester Journal. " The Right Hon. the Earl of Devon took the chair at three o'clock precisely, and was supported by the Earl Grosvenor, Lord Claud Hamilton, M.P., Sir George Staunton, Bart., M.P., E. W. Pendarves, M.P, William Evans, M.P., Lord William Lennox, Colonel the lion. Leicester Stanhope, Brigadier-General Sir Henry Pynn, Henry Waymouth, Esq., Charles Cochrane, Esq., William Tite, Esq., William Vizard, Esq., Dr. Holt Yates, J. W. Moore, Esq., and others of the Vice-Pre sidents and Committee, with a full attendance of members. " In opening the proceedings, Lord Devon observed, that according to the usual custom of societies of this nature, we had met to hear a report of the progress and present state of our affairs, on which—considering the very short time that had elapsed since a few gentlemen had met together at his house to hear Mr. Buckingham's prospectus of the Institute, and to confer together on the best means of assisting him to complete his original de. sign—be thought there would be found much reason for contratulat ion. " A short preliminary conversation ensued, as to cer tain abridgments made - in the report, and the feeling of the meeting being in favour of its being now read in the shortest form, this was accordingly done by the secre tary, and the balance-sheet signed by the auditors was also read and explained. " Mr. Baylis, who moved the first resolution, said that he had heard so many unfavourable rumours of ono kind or another, that his mind had been strongly impressed with apprehension for the result ; but after the satisfac tory statements of the report and balance-sheet just read, these impressions were entirely removed, and he had the gra atest pleasure in moving that the report be rece ',A, adopted, and entered in the minutes of the Society. " Mr. Tite said that he felt very reluctant to incur any unnecessary expense, but he deemed it to be so im portant to the interests of the Institute that this report should be widely circulated, that he begged to submit a motion for its being printed and distributed among the members, as he was quite sure that wherever it was read it would remove many erroneous conceptions, and be of the greatest benefit to the Society. " Mr. Simpson, in moving the third resolution, said that he, too, like others, had heard all manner of evil bodings. But when on his first coming to town from Edinburgh be came to see the institute for himself, and investigate the mode and manner in which its affairs were conducted, he could not but be filled with admira tion at the beauty, appropriateness, good taste, elegance, and comfort of the one, and the ability and completeness of the other. It seemed to him a matter of wonder, as well as gratification, that so much should have been done, ar.d so well done too, in so short a time, and there fore he had great pleasure in submitting his motion of entire satisfaction with the management. " Mr. The, in moving a vote of thanks to Lord Devon, passed a high encomium on the Noble President, for the application of so much of his attention to the affairs of the Institute, considering the multiplicity and import ance of his engagements ; and he felt sure that his Lord ships continued approbation and patronage of the Society would be regarded by the public as the best proof of its being founded on sound principles, and con ducted with honour and integrity. " Dr. Camps drew the attention of the meeting to the zeal, ability, and unremitting devotion of all his time and talents, which Mr. Buckingham bestowed on the Institute, and regarded his able management of its affairs as the best guarantee for its continued success. Flaying witnessed all this for himself, from the earliest ' beginning of the undertaking, and seen no abatement of it to the present time, he had great pleasure in moving a vote of thanks to Mr. Buckingham and the Committee, for their valuable services and exertions during the past year. " The Earl of Devon, in returning thanks for the compliment paid to him, said that the whole merit of the idea and conception of the plan of the Institute belonged to Mr. Buckingham ; and all that he (Lord Devon) had done was to co operate, which he did most cordially, with others, to carry this plan out. He believed, from the first, that the idea, though a new and bold, was yet a valuable one, and might be reduced to practice, though many excel lent friends of his thought otherwise. The result, how ever, had shown that their apprehensions were not well founded. With Mr. Buckingham he had now main tained a pretty close and constant intercourse on the subject for nearly a year and a half, and he must say, that he could not but acknowledge and admire the zeal, perseverance, and ability with which he had achieved so much in so short a space of time. Indeed, the only fatilt he had to find with him was that lie was too zealous ; and the most frequent duty which he (Lord Devon) had to perform was to exercise the office of ardour checker,' and prevent Mr. Buckingham from doing too much. But for his zeal, however, the end could Rot have been accom plished ; and he was glad to find that it was felt and acknowledged in all quarters ; and that the friends and supporters of the Institute were daily on the increase, while its evening parties were more and more brilliant and satisfactory. He had himself attended several of these, and was much pleased at the evident gratification they afforded to all ; while he understood that the last, which occurred on the preceding evening, and which he was prevented from attending by an engagement else where, was one of the fullest and most attractive of the season. In all that was stated in the report on the sub ject, and indeed in every other part of it, he entirely concurred—and he had no doubt that as the advantages and pleasures of the Institute became more known, they would be more and more sought after and appreciated. " Mr. Jessel begged to ask Lord Devon, whether some plan might not be devised, by which Mr. Buckingham, the value of whose labours was admitted by all, could be secured a more competent remuneration than the present mode of payment afforded him : as he was sure the members generally would support the committe in awarding him a fixed salary, of a much larger amount than the small surplus now left for all his exertions, by which the Institute has been brought to its present state of efficiency. " Lord Devon said he agreed with the Hon. Gentle man as to the desirability of securing an adequate and cer tain compensation to Mr. Buckingham for his labours ; but the difficulty lay in this : that as the members were exempt from all legal liabilities beyond their respective subscriptions, the question would be, in the event of the income being insufficient to allow of such compensation, who was to make it up to him—the committee, or the members, or both ? The most certain method of secu. ring a proper return to Mr. Buckingham would be to in crease the general income of the Institute by an addi tion to the number of its members, as in that case all would be benefited, and there would be an ample surplus for remuneration without the necessity of calling upon any parties to make up a deficiency. It should be re membered that the Institute was yet in its infancy, and there was every reason to hope that it would go on im proving in its resources as well as its attractions." DEATH FROM EATING BITTER ALMONDS.—Thursday evening Mr. J. Payne concluded the investigation into the death of Mr. L. D. Nind. The ward- beadle stated, that he had made inquiries at all the chemists and grocers shops in the neighbourhood, but could not learn that any prussic acid or bitter almonds had been sold to a person answering the description of the deceased. Mr. Mason stated, that he had, in conjunction with two eminent surgeons, subjected the remainder of the con tents of the stomach to a test, the result of which was the production of one drachm of prussic acid of com merce, which was quite sufficient to account for death, and might have been imbibed from the quantity of bitter almonds found in the stomach. There being no further material evidence, the coroner suggested the propriety of returning an open verdict. The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict—" That the deceased died from the effects of poison contained in a quantity t f bitter almonds found in his stomach." _ TIIE ATTEMPTED ROBBERY AT THE ST. KATIIA RINE'S DocKs.—An account appeared in our paper of Thursday of an attempted robbery of a large quantity of brandy from St. Katharine's Docks, and of the sin gular manner in which the same had been discovered, and thereby prevented. Some further particulars have since come to light on the subject. It appears that the Customs' officers on board of the ship Gem, which has recently arrived in the dock from Charente, had retired to rest, after watching from nine o'clock on the Monday night till three of the following morning, and that, about six o'clock, the officer was informed by the mate that one of the casks lying on the deck, which had beta hoisted from the hold on the previous afternoon, had been plundered to a considerable extent in the following manner :—The cask was lying close to the side of the vessel, with the head towards the hatchway, and a hole had been bored through the side of the ship and the head of the cask, by which means the brandy had been extracted, the hole being closed again, so as to escal e observation, until the thieves had got safely away with their booty. On the cask being guaged, it was found that no less than 32 gallons had been abstracted. Ile number of bladders found in the gutter of the roof of the cigar warehouse was 16, and were found to contain nearly 20 gallons, and near the bladders lay a gimblet and a quantity of ropes, so that 12 gallons of the spirit is still unaccounted for, and it is supposed that that quantity must have been securely got away by the thieves. NOVEL SYSTEM or ROBBERY.—The Correctional Tribunal of the Seine was occupied on Tuesday with the trial of Auguste Maudhuit, aged 24, for robbery. It ap peared that the prisoner has chalked out for himself a novel plan to obtain the confidence of his victims. Ile always applied to persons of the weaker sex, and pre tending honourable intentions, finished by robbing thn. A written deposition was handed in from a young wo man, named Eliza Noise, which stated that the prisoner had followed her in the street, and pretending the most ardent love, had insinuated himself into her affections and domicile, and at last fixed a day for their marriage. lie disappeared, however, previously, carrying with him 157 f. She afterwards met bins in the I Royal, and had him arrested. Two others of the prisoner's ♦ictims came forward in person, and testified against him. Fm om one he had taken a gold watch, chain, and other artic:es, to the value of 600 f., and from the other upwards of 300 f. The Court sentenced him to eighteen months' im prisonment and 50f. fine.—Galignani. TouLoN, Nov. 7.—The whole of this day the port has been greatly animated with the embarking of troops for Algeria ; 1,100 men left this morning by the glean:- frigate Montezuma for Algiers, and 2,000 were embarked in the afternoon on board the transport rcrdrix for Oran, and the Provencale for Algiers. It is said that no less than 5,000 or 6,000 men will embark in the course of next week from this port fur the same destination PUBLICATIONS. PEARSON ON THE CREED. BY NICHOLS.
