PETITION OF PA L TIES LA BILL TELY ENGAGED IN PROMOTING THE SAME. The humble petition of the undersigned parties, lately en gaged in promoting a railway from the South-Eastern Railway near Headcorn, to the harbours of Eve and Hastings, Showeth,—That your petitioners I dely introduced a Bill into your Honourable House for making the above-mentioned railway, which Bill was referred to a Select Committee as a competing line with a projected railway from the London and Brighton Railway to Hastings. That the said Committee, in their report to your Honour able House ; has stated that they have negatived the pre amble.or the Bill so introduced by your petitioners, but that as .a considerable amount of the traffic anticipated on the line thereby contemplated; and on the said other line, might be expected to pass °tithe intermediate portion of those lines, or cross them in the direction of Chichester and Portsmouth in the one case, and of that of Maidstone, and-places on the northern and eastern coast of Kent, in the other, they might have been disposed to give their sanction to both lines, had the estimated amount of traffic appeared sufficient fur the support of two such extensive undertakings, and had they been convinced that the proposed line by Headcorn had been 'deliberately adopted as the best that could be selected in an engineering point of view, and also in regard to the accom modation of the town of dastings. That your petitioners have reason to believe that the por tion of the said last-mentioned line to which the said report refers as not having been deliberately adopted, is that which lies between Rye and Hastings, and that had the Bill intr.- duced by your petitioners heel :for the making s railway to the harbour of Rye alone they would have succeeded in esta blishing, to the satisfaction of the said Committee, that the same should have been allowed to pass into a law. That a considerable portion of the traffic which was antici pated on the said projected line, and of the public benefit de rivable from the formation thereof, was wholly irrespective of the town of Hastings, and it would be of the greatest local and public advantage if the said line were formed as far as the port,of Rye only, which will in no way participate in the benefits expected to result from the competing line from the London and-Brighten Railway to Hastings, which has been sanctioned by the said Committee. That; as evidence of the extent of such anticipated traffic, and as security that such line from the South-Easteni Rail way to Rye, would be efficiently worked and maintained, your petitioners beg to add that the South-Eastern Railway Company are willing to become the lessees thereof at a rent remunerative to the projectors, and they humbly hope, there fore, that the great expense which has been incurred by them in bringing the said Bill before Parliament may not be lost, by the total rejection of the measure thereby contemplated. Your petitioners, thereßwe,.humbly 'Pray your Honourable House, that the said Bill for making a railway from t South-Eastern Railway near Headcorn to the Harbour of Rye and Hastings, may be re-committed to the former Cora -mittee to whom the said. Bill was referred, and that it be an instruction to such Committee that they have power, if they sea fit, to rescind their former derision on the preamble of the said Bill; and to consider and report on the expediency of allowing the said Bill•to pass for making a railway to the town and harbour of Rye only. art 6° ' only P 24s for 19; it sorts bare'.

HOSPITAL FOR CONSUMPTION MR. CAPP'S LECTURE. THE CURRENCY and MONETARY LAWS. A LECTURE on Sir ROBERT PEEL'S CURRENCY PLANS, showing the way in which they will affect all classes of the community, Illustrated by an interesting Series of Statistical Diagrams, will be given at the British Coffee-house, Cockspur-street, on Tiitntsnev, June 13, 1844, at One o'clock precisely. Admission eatis, by tickets only, which may be obtained of Metsrs.

AND DISEASES OF THE CHEST. CEREAIONY OF LAYING THE FOUNDATION STONE. This ceremony took place yesterday, shortly after one o'clock. The site of the intended new Hospital is at Brompton, just beyond Pelham-crescent, between which and the Queen's Elm-gate, the Hospital, which will be an elegant Gothic building in the Elizabethan style, will be erected. At the west of the inclosure was erected a spacious pavilion, in which the ceremony was to take place. Persons having tickets for the pavilion were admitted by the western entrance at twelve o'clock. The nobility, clergy, and other persons having cards of invitation from the Committee were ad mitted by the western entrance, and took their places on seats raised on the platform. The seats on the left of the entrance were appropriated to the ladies, and the seats on the right Were appropriated' exclusively to the nobility, clergy, and members of the Committee. At ten minutes before one the Committee proceeded to thereception tent to meet his Royal Highness. Prince Albert, who ar rived at one o'clock • precisely, attended by Colonel Bowater. Ills Royal Highness was received at the entrance to the grounds by the Duke of Norfolk, the Bishop of-Worcester, the Earl of ✓ Auckland, the Earl of Feversham, the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, Lord Ernest Bruce, the patrons and officers of the Institution, who accompanied his Royal Highness to the reception-tent, where the architect, medical officers, chaplain, and several of the clergy, had the honour of being presented to his Royal Highness, who afterwards proceeded in procession, "SecomPanied . bp the nobility, patrons, and Committee, to the pavilion, the band of the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), which was in attendance, performing the National Anthem. On his arrival at the pavilion, his Royal .Highness took his seat in the chair of state,•when the Duke of Norfolk, in a brief address, explained to his Royal Highness the objects of the charity, and, in the name of the friends of the under taking, thanked his Royal Highness for so kindly consenting to take a part in the proceedings of the day. An account of the ceremony of laying the foundation-stone, beautifully engrossed in vellum, was then signed by his Royal Highness, and the nobility and clergy present, and, together with a specimen of each of the coins of the realm of the present year, placed in a glass case, was deposited by his Royal Highness in a cavity underneath the foundation-stone. The foundation stone, an enormous square block, weighing upwards of two tons, and having the 'royal arms sculptured in high relief, on one of its faces, was then lowered upon the bed of mortar which had been previously spread by his Royal High ness, with a silver-gilt trowel, handed to him by the archi tect, and his Royal Highness having poured corn, oil, and wine on the stone, walked round it, striking it several times with a mallet, amidst the cheers of all present. The Bishop of Worcester, who at the commencement of the ceremony had invoked the Divine blessing on the undertaking, then repeated the blessing frem the Church ser vice, and the ceremony was concluded. His Royal High ness then proceeded to the Bazaar in aid of the funds of the Hospital, in Chelsea College-gardens. His Royal High • ness, who looked in excellent health and spirits, rode on horseback to and from the Hospital. There were about 2,000 persons present to witness the ceremony. His Royal High ness was frequently cheered during the course of his progress from the Hospital to the Bazaar.

GLOBE.—We do not thinCitCan fairly be deried that. some measure of consideration is due to an interest Which re cent legislation has placed in its present difficulties. We have no particular tenderness for the West India interest ;! but neither can ire allow ourselves to be transported by any antipathy to it, nor by any exclusive devotion to the single principle of free trade, to treat that interest with less. justice -than should regulate all transactions between man and man. The only question is, inwhat shape that justice can be afforded _them ; and it is quite evident. it cannot be afforded in the. shape of a perpetual monopoly of their decreasing pro-: ducts. The difficulties of the We,t India colonies collectively began with the abolition—not af slavery, but the slave-trade. Before that' epoch, they not 'only brought large revehues to our treasury, but large contributions to 'our trade of export. There Could be no -complaint 'then of monopoly; and there would •be no complaint now, if Demerara had gone on driving the. slave trade, and _bringing under Culture her vast tracts of yet virgin fertility. This certainly constitutes a case for considerate treat ment of that colonial interest, which our own measures alone prevented frOni continuing to afford large contributions to our commerce and finance. All that we now. seek from foreign commerce in this article, colonial commerce would This is exe&edingly cool, and in good taste. Here we . la - re a ramtii - nt of the City bankers assembling in the Clearing- boll e -- for the purp .se of denouncing restriction. theseg'ntlemen restrict the - privileges of the house in which they assembled to their own order, and ex-I tide all the j.iiit-stock banks in London from a parti cipaibm in these privileges. It is more than passing strange that the intensity oftheirregardforthe well-being of th e commercial interests of the City of London should nev,r haVe led them to reflect upon the 'injurious t-ndeney of their own. restrictions to that interest. There. is . reasoa to sospeet- that there is more in this movement than meets the eye. The sense of justice and the liberality of Sir Robert Peel are about to place the joint-stock banks 0: London on an equality with the other banks, and we are rather inclined to believe that the clearing bankers are becoming. a little sensitive on the subject, and apprehensive about the result. Many of these gentlemen are worthy and highly-respectable men, but the declaration alluded to adds another to the innumerable list of cases which proves how difficult it is for humanity to act consistently , when real or imaginary interests pervert the mental vision. For a clearing banker of the City of London to declare and protest against restriction is, in the literal sense of the term, like `4ttan reproving sin. In reply to their memorial or re monstrance, .Sir Robert reel will be perfectly justified in- advising then, to-look at home and take the beam out of their own eye. Wore they attempt to take the mote out of their brother's. EGYPTIAN HALL, PICCADILLY. ' (Patronised by the King of Saxony.)

Doc. have given us; our legislation deprived ourscfres of it; and the West Indians certainly have some colour for complaining that their invested capital should . be the sole and total sacri fice of our scruples ; and that those scruples, having ope rated to deprive them of labour, should now be silenced, in favour of trading with their competitors,' whose sole advantage over them is labour: This certainly seems a hard ease ; and it is a hard case ; but harder still would be the case of the people of England; if they must go on, for an in definite period, submitting to starved markets of a prime necessary. Enlightened rulers should have foreseen, from the very hour of . abolishing the slave trade, the difficulties and necessities which have come thicken ing on us ever since. Enlightened slave owners (if that were not apt to be scarce' less than a contradic tion in terms) should have foreseen from that very hour, and should have advanced to meet abolition of slavery. They should have told the trade-abolishing Government—You are henceforth responsible for the culture of these colonies. You are responsible for opening future sources for supply ing that labour whose past source you have stopped. We give up the notion of upholding slavery ; we can no longer make it productive in the degree which is necessary for working the resources of these regions. Be sides, we are sure you will put an end to it ; as you have already put an end to its reinforcement. Give slavery the coup de grace—take the transition on your shoulders—orga nise the regimen you would substitute. Or else, take on yourselves the loss of the whole capital sunk in these sugar colonies ; compensate us, as equity dictates; look to foreigners for supplies, and don't look how they raise them. We will leave the islands and mainlands to - the negroes ; and let them barbarise or civilise on themas in Hayti. If the planters had possessed calmness and 'foresight to impose this alternative on the home Government, we do not see how Government could have refused the responsibility, which really belonged to them, of initiating a new industrial regi men—or else confessing they could not do it—which would have reduced 'in absurdity the act of abolishing our slave trade. For clearly, if that act was to land us in our pre sent necessity of going for supplies (directly or indirectly) to other slave traders, it must have been worse than useless— worse than useless by the whole amount of the sunk capital sacrificed in our West Indies. We do not here take account .f the well-founded, abhorrence which led us to abolish JOS. BAXEN DALE, C. TREEDALE, LEWIS CUBITT, GEORGE HANKEY. RICHD. DAVIS, H. L. SMALE.

MESSRS: JAMES ALLEN and SON beg most respectfully to acquaint the Nobility, Gentry, and Com mercial Gentlemen that they have entirely refitted the above Hotel with every regard both to elegance and comfort, and they trust that by the adoption of the most moderate charges, they may be able to retain that large share of patronage with which they have hitherto been favoured. Monday evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of Ratcliffe, Stepney, Limehouse, and parishes adjacent, was held at the Eastern Institution, Shadwell, to express the sympathy: they entertained towards Mr. O'Connell, and also to protest against the course of proceeding which had lately been adopted with reference to that gentleman. It was announced that Maurice O'Connell, Esq., M.P., would take the chair at seven o'clock, but long before that hour the large hall of the institution was densely crowded, and hundreds were waiting outside unable to obtain admission. Not fewer than 3,000 people were within the walls of the building. Some of the windows were taken from their sashes, and were occupied by persons desirous of listening to the preceedings. . . Shortly after eight o'clock, the Rev. John Moore, minister of the Catholic Chapel, Virginia-street, appeared on the platform,-and was received with rapturous cheers. The Reverend Gentleman having been called to the chair, commenced by .rating that he would never maintain the union by constructive laws, packed juries, or State . prosecu tions—not by 'physical force, the prison, bayonet, or scaf fold—not by in or coercion: but he would maintain the union entire and inviolate by the love - they owed their Sovereign, respect for the laws and their proper interpreta tion—by justice to all and favour to none.—(Cheers.) Based upon those principles, there was now no union. Towards making that union what it should be; Ireland expected that in the present. critical juncture of ' affairs, every man should do his duty. Separation he did not want,. but justice 'he Was 'determined to work for.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Juitice was wanted, and he thought he saw enough of the times to warrant him in saying that nothing less would be taken.-(Hear; bear.) Mr. O'CALIAGnaN then rose, and spoke at some length on facts connected with the history of Ireland, and inferred therefrom. that the union had •not been productive of benefit to that country, but, on the contrary, that its political and comniercial prosperity had been retarded. Five years ante cedently to the union the trade of Ireland so rapidly in creased, d , 14 her agricultural pursuits were so successful, that a balance of seven millions sterling was left in her favour. Re strictive laws were then proposed, and had been Ireland's ruin. Mr. O'Callaghan concluded by proposing a vote of sympathy with Mr. O'Connell. Mr, NE:.:,► i seconded the resolntion, which was put to the meeting and carried with.the. greatest enthusiasm. A strong protest against the recent proceedings with re spect to the traversers was agreed to, and the meeting sepa rated, after passing a vote of thanks to the Rev. Chairman, who briefly acknowledged the compliment. PATENT IMPROVEMENTS IN CHRONOMETERS, WATCHES AND CLOCKS. J. DENT, 82, STRAND, and 33, COCK- A.

The concert of Monday was announced as being " by command" of her Majesty; and it was u n d ers t oo d t h at t h e same illustrious party (with the exception of the Emperor of Russia) who visited the Opera on Saturday were to honour the concert with their presence. The crowd, consequently, was immense, and the room had a most brilliant appearance. At* half-past eight the royal party entered the room, and took their places in the space set apart for them immediately in front of the orchestra. There Were present her Majesty and Prince Albert, the King of Saxony and his suite, the Dukes of Cambridge and Wellington, the Duchess of Buc cleuch, Earls Delawarr, Jersey, and Falmouth, Sir Edward Bowater, the Hon. C. Murray, Lady Catherine and Miss Cavendish, the Hon. Miss Liddell, and Lady Macdonald. When the Queen appeared, the audience rose and greeted her Majesty with a burst of applause, and " God save the Queen" was played by the orchestra. The concert, though excellent, presented little novelty. It opened with Beethoven's colossal symphony in C minor, which was most magnificently performed. The effects of Mendelssohn's superintendence were apparent, not only in the increased precision and aplomb of the whole performance, but in several new effects produced by accelerating and re tarding the movement, and the subdued and delicate execu tion of the piano passages. Mozart's beautiful air, " Oh, cara immagine," from the Flauto 411agico, was then admirably sung by Signor Salvi. There was next a concertante for four violins, played by Sivori, Blagrove, Willy, and Sainton, with full orchestral accompaniments. Sterndale Bennett's very clever overture, The Naiades, concluded the first part. The second part consisted almost entirely of Mendelssohn's overture and music for the Midsummer Night's Dream, which had been performed' at the previous concert. In its repe tition it was even more effective than before. It was listened to with the deepest attention, and applauded with enthu siasm. The concert terminated with an overture by Schubert—by no means such a composition as we should have expected from the author of so many beautiful and imaginative songs. • The royal party remained till the con clusion of the concert. IMPORTANT to FAMILIES FURNISHING —A considerable saving can be effected in the purchase of Furnishing Ironmongery, by visiting the PANKLIBANON IRON WORKS, 58, Baker-street, Portman-square, where may be in spected the most extensive STOCK of IRONMONGERY GOODS in the Kingdom, consisting of kitchen cooking utensils, German silver wares, drawing-room stoves, shower and vapour baths, ornamental iron work, garden implements, japanned water cans and toilette pails, best Sheffield plate, kitchen ranges, fenders and fire-irons, tea trays, ornamental wirework, flower stands, table cutlery, &c. Every article being marked in plain figures, at the lowest possible price, will fully convince purchasers at this establishment of the great advantage re sulting from Cash payments, as the proprietors warrant every article of the very best manufacture, at a saving of at least 30 per cent.— THORPE, FALLOWS, and Co., 58, Baker-street, Portman-square. —A liberal allowance to merchants and captains. )AY. like I tit er t eo` t tbi oerb ,r, ee , e 1 4 1 re ce' ir id tom sFe c ro va rtis• 0 0` Kiwi" b the slave-trade—because, if our West -Indians did not feel ihit abhorrence, we might have consigned them to self-goVernment and self-protection,—which they might have defrayed out of the taxes we levied on their products, and which we. should have remitted. It will hardly be- said, that it we had had distinct fore knowledge that we must needs buy sugar of some slave dealers, there was common sense in abolishing. the trade of some, to'promote that of others. Therefore we say there was not common sense in our measures of that period. Not that the slave-trade should have been tolerated.under the British, Government, but- that the British Government should have held itself answerable to. provide some substitute for its use. And this responsibility should have been imposed on our Government by the planters ; and aided by them. Instead ,of this, they stiffened themselves against all interference. They contented themselves with mere resistance to the _inevitable consummation of abolition of slavery. But even the main tenance of slavery could not have. maintained adequate powers of production. In Demerara particularly, the slave population rapidly decreased from the period of slave-trade abolition. The stoppage of the previous source of supply of labour-caused the over-working of- the slaves, and the de crease-of their numbers. • ' WO 5.-'' I.4ONDON, EDINBURGH, and DUBLIN LIFE ASSURANCE, 3, Charlotte-row, Mansion-house, and 18, Chancery-lane, London.

Chirney, Albion. place, King's. cress-4. Jordan and J. Jackson, fruiterers, eeds—J. Robertson and H. M, Shaw, Dirchin-lane—B. STANDARD.—TweIve years ago• this country abolished negro slavery—a great act of justice and of mercy, but an act which involved a vast present Sacrifice; without any definite prospect of compensation, however distant; but what has been the effect? 'The first effect, and beyond doubt an undesigned one, has been to paralyse completely and for ever the power of our most formidable western rival, to in jure the. British empire. The second effect has been to bind still more closely to the metropolitan state, by the link of a - profitable trade, the vast - empire•of India. Another effect, n ew opening to view, is a like commercial connexion with the still larger and richer empire of China. This has been the re ward of justice to the negro..:..: a reward Of any part of which no on e -dreamed twelve y ears a go. N ew, h owever , we are called 'upon fur another act - ol•justice, or rather to resist an act 'of gross injustice. The emancipation of the negrb fell _heavily upon his owner : the loss was in part compensated, • but in part only, by a munificent grant of twenty millions; but the injury was of that kind which 100 millions could not 'repair. The Emancipation Act did not take away merely the, planter's servant, it took away . his . estate, and all the capi tal sunk upon that estate. • Lands cannot be cultivated or works carried on without labourers, and if von take away the labourers, you, in effect, take away the lands and the works;. and less than • the 'fee- simple . of the lands and the whole price of the works will not compensate the owner. Such has.been to a:great extent the effect of the Emancipa tion Act upon the West India planters. They cannot all get labourers at • any price, and we have heard and believe that the few who can get them, are often com pelled:.. to pay at the rate of one shilling per hour. Now, to • admit the competition of slave labour with men so • circumstanced • must be in stant ruin, and even t o adm i t t h e compe tition of free l a bour of countries less burthened and more populous would be almost as unjust, vet this is what has been proposed by the Anti , Corn- law Leaguers, by Mr. Ewart and Mr. Roe— buck.; and firmly to resist, the propositions of these persons is the vindication of justice for which the occasion calls. England is as much bound to protect the 'West India planters as she is to protect the natives of Great Britain. It has been said that the twenty millions was the price of negro emanci pationiand that the planters, having had their money, have no further claim. This is, however, a false view of the trans action of 1832. That was not a bargain between equals, in which one could demand an d th e o ther pay a price. It was an arrangement imp ose d b y a strong party upon a party unable to resist, b u t. which was most de sirous • to resist ; and . the stronger • party took upon itself solely to award- the amount of compen sation; which therefore can be •in no sense regarded as a price, binding the weaker to any arrangement. The compensation has proved wholly inadequate to the injury, and it'now reverts to those who inflicted the injury to supply the deficiency. We have no right to arrogate the praise of abolish ing slavery, if we are unwilling to pay the last penny of the cost. It is idle and fallacious to talk-of our twenty millious, if the cost to the planters has been twice twenty millions more. We must not, as the phrase is, " ride to heaven upon: another man's horse.' No round sum of money that 'any one could dare to name is, in fact, sufficient to compensate the West India planter. If we are just, we will compensate him by pro tecting his industry, the only way in which we can compensate him. The measure of protection is a qu3stion into which we are not competent to enter. If excessive, it would but serve to enhance the extravagant rate of wages in the West Indies, as there the labourers are masters ; if deficient, it would be a fraud, for an insufficient protection is in fact no protection. What nritnecnidplfeoLis we the principle of real protection, and to apply maintain, necessary to justice. Ret urning to the point from which we s et out, w e hold that in this and every other case, to "be jus t and fear not" is the true wisdom. Let us treat the W es t Indians with justice, and.. we e is co p we know from experience that, sooner or later, they . will repay us tenfold. we do not pretend to conjec ture. It may be that the islands will, by a multiplication of the people from natural increase, or by emigration from the neighbouring slave states, or by drafts from civilised Africa, again exhibit an universal cultivation. Our readers are_ aware that we look to the civilisation of the west coast of Africa as the most promising source of supply, and to civilise that coast would, like all the works of mercy, be " twice blessed, bl ess ing him that gives, and him to whom it is given." MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CITY, MONDAY EVENING. TIMES.—Cape of Good 11ope papers to the 16th of April have come to hand. Sir P. Maitland, the new Governor, contemplated some revisions in the laws of the. colony, which appeared to give very general satisfaction. News from Natal to the sth had been received at Graham's-town, according to which the Boers seem not altogether to relish English supremacy, and it was u dance. ori rumoured that several intended agai n to ret i re b eyon d the bounds of our sovereign t y. Advices are reported from lohaboo and Angra Pequina of the supply ol guano continuing to By this opportunity we learn the intelligence of the:h and seven of the in The Majesty's ship statement is, that massacre ofLbiecustheinpapnetd a mbis Cleopatra, where site Madagascar, on a they went on shore to disengage the kedge anchor after crew, at struck coral be reef.r the vessel had been warped oft, when they were attacked by the natives, and slaughtered before assistance could be rendered. Her Majesty's ship Wanderer had arrived at Simon's Bay, reported from Penang the 22d of February, bound to England, having on board one million and a half of spocio, supposed to b e another instalment of the China ransom. Port Philip papers of the sth of February have also been received. Appearances of a revival of business are alliula to, and the emigration of persons t:f middle-class circumstances encouraged. Captalists are strongly in vited to visit the Australasian shores in the present times of depression. The Haitien papers of the sth ult., which hive been Dumas, JUNE 9.—A very numerous and highly important meeting of the Reformers of Belfast was held in the Theatre of that town, on Friday, " to consider the propriety of adopt ing resolutions, and an address to Mr. O'Connell, with refe rence to the State trials." James Grimshaw, Esq., presided. Jam es•CAMPBELL, Esq., proposed the first resolution. He said—l am no repealer. I did not approve of the monster meetings, but neither do.I approve of the recent measure of the Government. I think the Government was wrung in the whole tenor of its proceedings, from first to last. If the meeting of Clontarf was illegal, so was that of Mullaghmast, so was every other which preceded it, and yet no steps were taken to suppress them. With regard to the Government, they have began with prosecution, but ended with persecu tion.—( Loud applause.) That a man should be incarcerated while Iris - guilt is yet undecided, and ere the higher tribunal before which such decision is to take place has sat upon the question, is, gentleman, a circumstance which should make us alarmed for our own liberties.—(Cheers.) J. T. TENSEST, Esq., proposed the next resolution. He which declared thenot question law; u t the have ac accuracy u h r e a e c e y , sai d—Gentlemen, I perfectly agree with the judg e s in th e i r ~iefiniitiwith o I of t conspiracyhey have ; I do from a - very early period of my life, engaged both on record and Cr ..wn cases, as a juror, and I tell you that had I been one of Mr. O'Connell's jury I would, assuredly. have de clared him innocent of the crime of conspiracy.—(Tremendous ,applause.) In my consci, rice, I do not believe that Mr. O'Connell, or his associates, ever conspired to do one illegal act.—( Loud cheers.) The consent of many men to meet and petition for the repeal of a law which they consider op pressive, cannot be construed into conspiracy. There must be some proof that they laid their heads together to break the law. Gentlemen, the right by which we are here assem bled to-night, is one which, I trust, we are all resolved never 'to surrender except with our lives..---(Tremendous applause.) . . . IL J. TENSEST, Esq., D. L., in proposing an address to Mr. O'Connell, said—Such an event as has lately happened calls for the condemnation . not only of every friend of civil and religious liberty, but of every man, be he Catholic, Pro testant; or Presbyterian—be he Repealer, Reformer, or Con servative, who vaCttes the constitutional rights and privi leges of the subject, or the due administration of the law. —(Great cheering.) O'Connell and the rest of the tra ver,e'rs have not been convicted of a breach of any of the written or statute lawsof the kingdom—they have not .been found guilty of violating, I say, any of the written statutes; and we have met to-night to protest against the danger which may result from lawyer-made law being turned into an instiument of oppression or of vindictiveness towards a political opponent.—(Cheers.) During the space of time my own 'memory can run Over, I have seen but one short while during which England manifested any desire to deal fairly with our country. I allude to the term of the Government of Lord 3lusgrave.—(Tremendous cheers.) During that period, there were no 'monster meetings, no monster trials, no mon ster agitiition, no strengthening of forts, no loop-holing barracks. What a contrast to that quiet state does "our country now present ; her towns crowded with soldiers, her harbours literally filled with war-steamers, and her ,coast surrounded by men-of-war !—(Hear.) I do not wish to create any dissension in this meeting, when I ask confidently, what Irishman, looking at this state of things, and obServiag the manner in which his country is treated—l ask, what Irishman can, for lam sure I cannot,' feel' wonder that his countrymen shoukl demand the management of their own affairs? The Right Rev. Dr. DENvin next addressed the meeting, which broke up, giving hearty cheers for the Queen and O'Connell. _ A meeting of the law clerks was held this day in the Adelphi Theatre, Mr. O'Connor in the chair, when an address to Mr. O'Connell was adopted. Nearly one hundred pounds repeal rent was subscribed on the spot. Similar meetings were held this day in Rathmines, Catherine's Parish, and the Post•office Ward. MORE TROOPS FOR IRELAND.—The Cork Reporter of yes terday says, " Her Majesty's steamer Dee, Commander Driver, sailed this morning from Cove for Chatham, to em bark troops for conveyance to this country ." TILE LATE MEETING IN WATERFORD—PIIE POLICE.—The Water ford Chronicle says :—" We are given to understand that ;the chief of the police applied to the secretary, T. F. Meagher, jun., Esq., for a copy of the resolutions which were passed at the meeting on Wednesday last to sympathise with Mr. O'Connell. An application was also made fora copy of the address—that is, before it had legal existence or was pro sented•to the Liberator—Quern .Deus vult,&c." • GAMBOLS OF A I3AnooN.—On Sunday morning a large-sized baboon, .which had been sent as a present from a gentleman at the Cape to a friend of his, and which had been brought from on board ship but a few hours betbre, managed to slip his chain, and sallying from the house No. 12, Duke street, soon made his way to the roof of the houses in New Martin- street. On gaining this eminence Master Jacko commenced amusing himself by stripping the tiles off, and flinging them at the crowd in the street, His pursuers got from the garrets of the 11W,15PA on to the roof, but the instant they made thdr appcarance the cunning animal shifted his (Darters, and recommenced taking off the tiles,, and flinging them into the street, to the amusement of some and the terror of others. Jacko thus moved from house to house until lie at length reached the roof of the Anchor and Hope, opposite to the entrance to the London-dock, in East Smith field. Here he descended to a low building over the long. room, on the roof of which there was a skylight. slaving minutely surveyed the place, and seeing no one below, " J'acko'' took a figicy to get In, and having smashed several aq uares cif glass with a piece of tiling, let him se lf drop ilvm tho open i ng thus effected on to one of the tables. A. sailor wile had been boozing till a late hour lay asleep on one of the benches at the time, but the noise awoke him, and observing the baboon drop from the roof, and come on his feet on the table, he loudly exclaimed, " Here's a - foreigner," and scamping out cf the room as fast as he could, closed the door after him, After much difficulty and a desper a t e res i s t ance on the part Master .difficulty ho was secured, and brought Mick to thee house (rout which he had escaped. CURIOUS. CASE. DORCHESTER.—A person was summoned to prove the settlement of his wife, who is a pauper lunatic in our County Asylum. On being sworn he solemnly declared that the woman in question was not his "law ful" wife, although she had been reputed to be so ; which asseveration greatly astounded a Rev. Magis trate, who said he had seen the certificate of the mar riage, in France, made out and signed by the cure, and upon which certificate, obtained from the man who now denied the woman to be his wife, an adju dication had been made. The wit ness still persisted in his former avowal, and called God to witness that he had never been married to the woman, either in a Roman Catholic Church in France, or in any place of worship there or elsewhere. He admittted that she had lived with him, as his reputed wife, and that he had had three children by her, the eldest of whom is now 27 years of age, and said he would have continued to take care of her, had not her conduct become such, from aberration of mind, that he could not live with her. Being asked several questions by the magistrates, he said the paper purporting to be a certificate, was not a real certificate, but was in fact, a forgery, made out by one of the sergeants of his regiment, who could write good French, and given to him, because publicans, when soldiers were billetted, would not take in their wives except they showed the certificate of their marriage : the sergeant, he said, made out half-a-dozen such certificates at the same time, for men who had foreign women with them who followed them as wives, but who had never been married. The old pensioner then gave a history of the af fair. He said he had fought for his king and country, for many years, having been twice wounded, once in the leg, at Waterloo, and once in the peninsular war, in the nose, by the spear of a Polish soldier (the loss of his nasal organ proved that he had been wounded in that prominent part) ; after the battle of Waterloo he met with this girl at Limbourg, and she appeared to be very fond of him, there being no love lost between them, as he was somewhat fond of her; she followed him until his regiment was about to leave for Eng land, and he would have made her his wife but for the Colonel, who refused to grant leave, notwithstand ing great importunity, the' gallant officer observing that he would not consent to the taking over of fo reign wives, as there were women enough in England. He told his fair one this, with a heavy heart, not daring to get married against the orders of his Colonel, as he, being then a sergeant, should have been reduced to the ranks, and probably otherwise punished. She wanted to follow him to England, whether married or not, but he pointed out to her that she could not be taken on board the transport ship, and therefore, however reluctantly, he must leave her. But no dif ficulty is too great for woman's love to encounter; she had some little acquaintance with the Commis sary's wife, and hired herself as a servant, in which capacity she was taken across in. another vessel, so that, after he had arrived with his regiment at Dover, she soon found him out, and, to his astonishment, his French lady-love was by his side again. Well, after such devotion, the soldier had not the heart to slight her, and she continued to follow his fortune, and had lived with him, as his better half, till the calamity which had fallen upon her happened. This, be assured the Bench was the real state of the case— he had not .before denied her to be his wife, because he had not been called upon to do so ; but being now required to speak the truth, upon his oath, he should say what was utterly false if he said she w as hi s w i fe, which he again most solemnly declared was not the case. The Bench then proceeded to take his evidence as to his own settlement, with the view of further in quiry.—Dorset Paper. • The celebrated clarimette player, Signor Erneste Cavallini, has just arrived in this country. DESTRUVrION BY FIRE OF 500 QUAILS.—On Sun day night, about 11 o'clock, a fire broke cut in the cellar of the house No. 23, Turnmill-street, Clerkenwell, in the mai• pation of Mr. Davenham, an extensive dealer in pigeons, quails, &c., wha a few months ago by a similar calamity lost above 1,000 pigeons. The discovery was made by policeman Ware, G 140, wh o saw a b ody of - smoke issuing from the cellar, and gave an immediate alarm. At that time the in mates were in bed, but they all succeeded in making their escape by jumping out of the window, with the exception of Mr. d, I, l Orter, brother-in-law *f Mr. Davenham. He was in A ream on the second floor, where he was discovered asleep by a man in charge of the Hatton-garden fire-escape ladder,. and was let down by that machine amidst the cheers of the spectators, the flames then rapidly ascending the staircase. The Faringdon-street, engine, followed by those from White cross-street and Watling-street, attended by Mr. Braldwood, ater quickly arrived, and there being an abundant suppl fw the fire was soon overcome, the lower part of th e oo e s ho Y u c :s u e a a il l s on in e being damaged. There were in the cellar Mr. Davenham abov is insured cages, all of which were destroyed. lost his life while the fire was raging in the Hand-in -Ha eling A in ni to an th n e cellar, but was fortunately rescued rescued by the Bremen. He, however, WO much hurt, and was obliged to have surgical assistance. SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY.—An inquest WAS held on Monday at the Fountain, Jamaica-street, Commercial -road, before Mr. Baker, the Coroner, on the body of Rachael liel lamy, aged twenty-two. Matilda Hethington, of No. 4G, Green-street, said that on Tuesd a y l as t t h e deceased and Mr. Bellamy, who was a retired surgeon, Caine from the country and engaged lodgings at her house. Deceased then appeared in the enjoyment of excellent health, and in the evening went to the Pavilion Theatre. The next morning Mr. Bel lamy sent for a black draught, and deceased was sick all day long, and kept her bed. She was b etter on Thursday last, but on Friday her husband told witness she was again ill. Witness went into her room and saw her in bed, gasping for • breath, and quite insensible. In a quarter of an hour she died. Her husband said that a short time before her death he gave her a dose of salts. Porter, the constable, said, that since the death of the deceased her husband had removed the phials which had contained the medicine he gave her, and. instead of giving the clothes she died in, according to the usual custom, to the woman by whom she was attended .in her illness, carried them out of the house. The Coroner said that the case was not without some suspicion, and that it would be necessary to hav e th e cause o f death determined by a post mortem examination. The inquest was then adjourned, and Mr. Garrat, surgeon, received instructions to open and examine the body. GUANO,--Monday the first public sales of Guano, imported direct from Ichaboe, on the west coast of Africa, took place in the large hall of the New Corn Exchange Hotel, Mark-lane. The attendance was numerous, but chiefly confined to colonial brokers, there being only three or four farmers present. O AN LD CAT.—There is now in the possession of lady of this town a cat which has been in the family twenty .vears, and a few d a y s ago s h e h ad two very fine kittens.-- Cambridge Chronicle. Melancholy, even love melancholy, is not so deeply seated, at least in minds of a manly and elastic character, as the soft enthusiasts who suffer under it are fond of believing. It yields to unexpected and striking impressions' upon the senses, to change of place, to such scenes as create new trains of association, and to the influence of the busy hum of mankind.—Sir Walter Scott. CHATHAM, JUNE 10.—On Saturday afternoon, the Bth inst., several detachments of regiments serving in India, arrived in vans from Gravesend at the Invalid Depot, Case ment Barracks, Brompton, consisting of one corporal, four privates, of the 3d Buffs ; two sergeants, one corporal, and 25 privates of the 9th Foot ; one private of the 10th ; and three sergeants, two corpo ra l s , one d rummer, 16 privates; with the Quarter-master Sergeant Leighton, of the 31st, with eight women and 17 children. These corps, in charge of Lieutenant Trevor, 3d Dragoons, embarked at Calcutta on the sth of February, on board the ship Earl of Hardwicke, Captain Henning, and put in at the Cape of Good Hope, re maining there seven days, and sailed again on the Ist of April. On the ship's arrival opposite to the Island of St.. Helena, on the 21st of April, they hove to to take in dis patches for England, and after a very excellent passage of 122 days arrived off Gravesend on the 7th inst. Several pas sengers embarked at Calcutta, among them were General Nutt and his lady, with two daughters; Lieutenant Burins, of the 50th Regiment; Captain Edmunds of the 9th Foot this officer was coining home for the benefit of his health. He, however, died a day after the ship had passed the Bay of Bengal. At the Cape General Nott, lady and family, die_ embarked, and were left there when the ship sailed. Moat of the soldiers that have come home have been in India up wards of twenty years, some of them happened to be on board the Kent Indianian when she took fire in the Bay of Biscay, in the year 1825. The troops are healthy. In the British Channel the Earl of Hardwicke spoke the Queen and the Prince of Wales; both these vessels have troops on board, and also the ship Maidstone, having on board Major-General Sir G. Napier, late Governor of the Cape of Good Hope. The late Sergeant-Major William Neelance, of the 12 t h Lancers, 'from the care and attention paid to him since in hospital by the medical authorities of Fort Pitt, is much better. Colonel Sampson Stawell has written for him to re turn to his regiment, which Will be allowed as soon as he la capable of bearing the journey. SUICIDE WHILST DREAMING.—On Sunday even ing last, a young man, named William Sexton, son of the landlordof the White Hart, Commercial Inn, ' Ampthill, Bedfordshire, died from the effects of a wound in, his throat, inflicted by himself, under the following singular circum stances. For some time past the deceased had suffered from asthma, and at times was rather delirious. On Wednesday night, the 22d ult., he went to bed at the usual time, appa rently much better in health than for some days previous. Between. one and two o'clock the following morning he walked to his sister's room and woke her up. She inquired who was there, but receiving no answer, went to the door and found the deceased. She asked him what he wanted, but he only answered by pointing to his throat ; and on putting her hand to the spot, she found that he was bleeding from a wound in it. Assistance was procured as soon as pos sible, and the wound was dressed. On rallying, the deceased wrote upon a piece of paper the cause which prompted him to inflict the wound. He stated that during his sleep he dreamed that a policeman said he would put him in the stocks, and he replied that, rather than he should do so he would cut his throat. The policeman attempted to do so, and he then got up and took his penknife out of his pocket and inflicted the wound. The pain caused him to awake,and he then walked to his sister's room, as stated above.
