The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies— the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well as to afford the full benefit to his family at death, and annual division of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the amount already invested; and this bonus, according to an equitable scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of future premiums EXAMPLES.

ALLSOPP'S PALE ALE MESSRS. ALLSOPP and SONS regret the necessity of again alluding to a statement put forth by Messrs. Bass and Co., purporting to be a correct representation of the current prices and shipments of Pale Ale to the East Indies. The Incorrectness of the returns alluded to has been fully shown in a former advertisement, notwithstanding which Messrs. Bass have pertinaciously refused to withdraw the same, thus rendering it in cumbent upon Messrs. Allsopp to lay before the pnblic the following detailed account of the actual transactions in Pale Ale shipped by themselves and Messrs. Bass respectively. In order to avoid the pos. sibility of mistake, the most careful examination of the official re ports of the Indian markets, during a period extending over the months of November, December, and January last, has been made, and Messrs. Allsopp confidently submit the result as a proof of the superior estimation in which their Ale is held throughout the three Presidencies. DR. REID ON VENTILATION.

The overland " Bengal Hurkaru" (Nov. 17) says Of Allsopp's Ale 430 hhds. have been sold at Company's rupees 67 to 77 per hhd.; and of Bass's 300 hhds at from 65 to 67 ru p ees . The "Review of the Calcutta Marke t" (Nov. 14) give this quo tation:— Allsopp 68 to 70 rps. per hhd. I Bass 65 to 67 rps. per hhd. On the 14th of Dec. the same price current quotes sales of 400 Mids. of Allsopp's Ale, at 72 to rupees, and Bass's ditto at 70. The Bengal Hurkaru " (Dec. 19) quotes the following sales : hhds. rps. ana. hhds. rps. ans. rps 20 72 8 Bap , 0 Ditto 200. 75 0 Ditto 1 0 to 72 Messrs. Gladstone's reports of the market for Ale (N0v.13) were : Allsopp fib to 70 rps. I Bass 65 to 66 rps. On the 14th of December the same firm quote the prices of Ale as nominal, except Allsopp's, which had been sold at 75 rupees, and on the 17th of January at 85 rupees (50 hhds). On the 14th of December, Messrs. Lyall, Matheson, and Co., say, No sales of Bass's Ale have been made for some time past; we cannot, therefore, give an actual quotation ; but rupees 67 to 70 may be considered its value, er five rupees below your own brewing. Under the head of Calcutta, Messrs. Allsopp have only to add that Messrs. Bass.and Co. have quoted sales of their own Beer at that place at 80 rupees, and Messrs.. Allsopp's at 75 rupt es per hhd. ; and on the 17th of January they even quote actual sales at 90 rupees. Messrs. Allsopp have taken some pains to ascertain the truth of these statements, and find that the fireund for these quota tions is a shipment of 10 butts by the Tecumseh," Bof which, having been consumed on board the vessel, mere charged to the owners at 90 rupees per hhd. as by account sales rendered* 17th January,7lB44, the remaining two be'ng landed at Calcutta and sold, one by private sale, at 8) rupees per hhd., and the other (ullaged) at 70. Ihe actual sale alluded to by Messrs. Bass and Co. on the 22d December,' at 80 rupees, turns out to be the identical parcel %loftd above, and Messrs. Mackay Holt, and Co., by request of Messrs Allsopp, having applied to Messrs. Bass and Co., for account sales confirmatory of this s tatemen t, are informed by them that , 'there are no account sales cerrespsniding therewith." MURRAY'S GEOGRAPHY, NEW EDITION, WITH SUPPLEMENT.

(Abridged from the Liverpo o l M ercur y, o f Friday.> Long before the.hour at which the proceelings were announced to commence, immense crowds had assem bled outside the theatre, anxious to obtain — admission. On no previous occasion did we ever witness such an eager desire manifested by all parties to gain access ;to the theatre, which, had been the scene of many similar grand demonstrations in favour of popular rights tind liberties. The Chairman of the evening, Wm. Rath bone, Esq., accompanied by Mr. O'Connell, ,entered the house about seven o'clock. The scene of enthusiasth which followed' :Ales all description —stage, boxes, pit, and gallery rose en masse to welcome Mr. O'Connell. Thunders of applause, iterated and reiterated, ascended from the crowded assemblage. The ladies waved their scarfs and handlt erchieN, and the men their hats; • shout after shout rent the air, and each person seemed to vie with another in the intensity of their feelings upon f.he occasion. For upwards of five minutes a scene of the utmost animation continued, whilst the gentleman !so honoured bowed to his friends, who thus welcomed Ills appearance. As, overcome by the kind reception, he sank into his chair, the House echoed again with the loudest plaudits, which eeased only when hands rind voices seemed to be completely exhausted. .Amon keat the gentlemen on the platform, we noticed the followil: —R. V. Yates, Esq., Thomas Blackburn, Esq., Thor nas Bolton, Esq., ChOritSpher Rawdon, Esq., Richard Side!, Esq., C. J. Coitbally, Esq., J. T.

Graysten, the Rev. T. Frith, R. E. Harvey, Esq: - Messrs. M. M'Divett, Cavannah, A. M`Divett, R. Day, Lennan, J. Langan, W. Brown, A. For s rest, and J. Edwards ; George Ilolt, Es.ii:, Rev. J. Robbards, J. Bradley, Esq. ; also, Ralph Clay, Esq , leader of the Orange party in Liverpool, a constant disturber of Liberal public meetings, and one of the parties who signed the requisition to the Mayor. Mr. RATHBONE was called to the chair, and, after the applause with which he was received, had subsided, he said—This meeting is neither a repeal meeting aloe an anti-repeal meeting.—(Hear, and laughter.) No man who comes here is compromised either for or against it; it is a meeting in vindication of the wrongs of Ireland— (Tremendous cheers)—in opposition to the violation of the Constitution in the State trials of Ireland—both of England and Ireland. Gentlemen, our tried friend, Mr. Blackburn, will move the first resolution, and you will have the kindness to give him your patient attention. THOMAS BLACKBURN, Esq., on rising to move the first resolution, said, the honour devolves upon me to submit to your consideration the first resolution, which is so comprehensive, and drawn up with so much care, that it will preclude the necessity of any lengthened ob servations from me. With your permission I will read ie—[Here Mr. Blackburn read the resolution.] I shall not have occasion to dwell at any length on the facts which it brings before you. That a large propor tion of the inhabitants of that beautiful, but ill-fated island, to which our proceedings especially refer, are in a state of physical wretchedness and poverty, and that wide-spread and alarming discontent and disaffection -prevail there, are matters, unhappily, too notorious to need proof. That this condition of the people is not the result of any inevitable and uncontrollable necessity is equally evident.—(Hear.) Ireland possesses immense natural advantages—a fertile soil, vast mineral wealth, a most advantageous position, noble bays and rivers, a quick, ingenious, versatile, and highly talented people ; in short, nature has bestowed upon her, with a lavish hand, all that is requisite to secure a large mea sure of material prosperity to her children ; and yet her condition is acknowledged, on all hands, and by men of all parties, to be a standing reproach to the empire of which she forms a part, and the most extraordinary anomaly of the civilised world.—(Cheers.) Now the inquiry naturally presents itself to the mind of every thoughtful man—how is the state of Ireland to be ac counted for? What is it that thus defeats the very bene ficence ofProvidence, and seems to turn every blessing into a curse ? To that inquiry the resolution before the meeting returns a brief, but yet a comprehensive, and I believe a correct answer. It traces it up, primarily, to -the faukstasststrekesed i having been treated in all ages as a conquered province, and its aboriginal inhabitants as a subjugated race ; and secondarily, but principally, to another equally certain fact,—that, for more than two centuries, the grand object aimed at by Government— that which has given its spirit and character to the whole course of policy pursued—has been to sustain and extend, in the exclusive possession of all influence, wealth, and power, the church of the miserable monopolising minority —(Hear, hear, and great cheering)—and to crush, and, if possible, annihilate another church, to which the im mense majority of the original inhabitants were attached. —(Renewed cheers.) These are, I venture confidently to maintain, the principal causes to which the peculiar and startling condition of the sister kingdom must be ascribed. The Melbourne Ministry and their suc cessive Lord-Lieutenants, Normanby and Ebrington, were, I verily believe, honestly desirous to _carry out the true intent of the Emancipation Act, and to conduct the Government of Ireland in the only way in which it ever can be successfully conducted,—by the agency and instrumentality of those in whom the people have con fidence. Now, was it not that part of their policy that mainly contributed to their fall? Was it not because Roman Catholics were admitted into the Ministry and into the Cabinet, and employed (certainly not to any great extent) in Ireland, that the " Church in danger' and " No Popery" cry was echoed through the land ? (Hear, hear.) To that stale and hackneyed cry it was that the present Ministry mainly owe their elevation to power. The present Ministry and their supporters dis placed them on that, as one of the principal grounds. On this principle they accepted office; and, with the exception of a few smooth, honeyed phrases from the specious Premier—(Hear, hear)—their whole conduct has been in perfect keeping with it. Look first at the men themselves. The Premier granted the Emancipa tion Act avowedly because he durst not any longer with hold it; and has again and again declared his determina tion to maintain the monster grievance of Ireland in all its integrity. He selected for his Lord Chancellor the man who had declared that the Irish were aliens, in lan guage, religion, and blood.—(Hisses and groans.) His Colonial Secretary is the Noble Lord who, for the vilest purposes of faction, brought in a Registration Bill, the effect of which would have been to transfer the repre sentation of Ireland almost entirely to the Orange party. llis Home Secretary has unblushingly asserted, that concession to Ireland has been carried to the utmost pos sible extent, and warned the unthankful Irish to expect . nothing more. Are these the men to inspire confidence in the Emerald Isle ?—(No.) And then, again, look at their appointments to the most important offices. Tell me not, under circumstances like these, that the Irish ought to be contented and quiet—that agitation is unreasonable and uncalled for. I will not pledge myself to an entire approval of every plan of agitation and resistance that has been adopted in Ireland—but this I will say, that if the great bulk of the people of that country were content to be practically excluded from the benefits of the Con stitution—to be shut out from all offices, and all power, and all emolument—to see the men whose chief merit has been an unbending opposition to the rights and liberties of their fellow countrymen, exalted to the highest offices in the State—if, I say, they could see all this, and not adopt every legal and constitutional means to protest against their grievances and their wrongs, then they would prove themselves unworthy of the rights of which they are deprived. Let us merge any dis tinction of religion, of nation, and of race.—(Cheers.) Our object is one. Our interest is the same. We ask no superiority to any class of our fellow-countrymen. We wish nothing for ourselves from which we would ex clude others. Our motto is, " Equal laws and equal rights to all."—(Cheers.) JAMES MULLENEUX, Esq., seconded the resolution. THOMAS BOLTON, Esq., moved the second resolution, which was seconded by CHARLES HOLLAND, Esq., and passed unanimously. WILLIAM WOOD, Esq., moved the third resolution, which was seconded by CHARLES ROBERTSON, Esq., and carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then advanced to the front of the stage with Mr. O'Connell, and read an address to that gentleman, which, without pledging the meeting to the language or measures of Mr. O'Connell, admitted the injustice which had been committed against the sister country, and at the same time complimented Mr. O'Con nell for the peaceable measures which he had adopted for redressing the wrongs of his country. Mr. O'CosiNELL, after silence had been obtained, said, —How shall I respond to this flattering address ? By laying my heart before you, and showing you the inmost recesses of my soul ?—(Applause.) A few weeks have elapsed since I was in this city before. I was on my way from Dublin to Parliament. I came here dis comfited to be sure, because there was a verdict against me, but I came undismayed. My pulse did not beat with a quicker throb. I was nerved with the same firm ness that I always found supporting me in the many struggles for liberty in which I have been engaged. There was no faltering about me, and yet I stood comparatively alone. I was discomfited, but un dismayed. An additional nickname had been bestowed on me, in addition to the number of appel lations—of names bestowed on me by persons who were not by at my christening at all.—(Laughter and applause.) I was called a convicted conspirator. But who called me so ? Why it was he who is so remarkable for not being able to pronounce a speech in the House without being insulting to somebody—Sir James Graham.— (Disapprobation.) The very man who, within the last eight-and-forty hours, within my hearing, called the purest spirits that belong to English legislation Jack Cades. Sir James Graham—he gave me that name. I fling back Jack Cade in his teeth.—(Applause.) I came here with that nickname, and with, I confess, no great prospect for support or success on this side of the water. I came over alone, and did not expect much support. I did wrong in thinking so, and I am here to make my open confession, to state that I did not expect from Eng land what I have most abundantly received. Never man felt so.delighted to find himself in the wrong, and never_ was a man more in the'svron,,cs than I was, and here I am before you, admitting that I was in the wrong, and unable to describe the joy of my heart that I was so. My first appearance was in Liverpool, and there were many Irish voices, and I thought I heard •some Saxon ones too, shouting for me in the square, but I was not far, enough from Ireland to distinguish them, but when I got to the Covent-garden anti-corn-law meeting there met me such a vivid, such a heart-rending cry of re spect and regard, I could - not help seeing it—such a cry of indignation at the injustice done me—such a thorough and manly declaration—that wherever Englishmen had power injustice should cease to pervade.—(Applause.) I have had this scene reiterated over and over again; and I have met in private, as in public, every disposition on the part of the English people to sympathise and sup port the Irish. I am here, and . I am come to make a'public declaration, that there is in England a living soul of justice that there are pure 1 waters of life from the fountain of the liberal hearts of England—that England is for justice, what '"ever her ttrigarchrattlegishanrs-May be, and that Ireland has her best support in the English love of justice.— (Applause.) I have heard language here to-night that would do honour to the best orators. I am not flatter ing. I have heard more good speaking, and more dig nified sentiments than I ever heard in one night before. I have heard gentlemen over whom I can, of course, have no control—gentlemen who differ with me upon the most material points—gentlemen who do not agree with me politically, and who are totally opposed to me in religious belief—l have heard them advocate the cause of justice to Ireland to-night, with a zeal, an energy, and a splendour of talent that I can admire, but would in vain endeavour to imitate.—(Great applause.) I am going back to tell the people of Ireland we have made a great mistake!—(Cheers.) I am going back to bind for ever a real union between the two countries.—(Great applause.) I speak not of politics ; I speak of what is of a higher nature—that communion of sentiment that' does honour to each party, and gives the real strength and security to the Throne and the Constitution.—(Cheers.) It will make this country again what she ought to be—the first nation upon the face of the earth.—(Great applause.) The moment that the owls and the bats that still flit about, as it were, in the twilight of legislation—the moment that we are able to drive them to their vile dens—that moment shall we have the fairer flight of the immortal minds of both countries combined together in one national sentiment of justice to each and every one.—(Vast applause.) Yes, I go back to announce to them, that it is not sufficient they should struggle for us, but that the determination will go abroad not to allow the present transactions to sink into oblivion until an attempt is made—and I trust a successful attempt—to impeach the authors of the evil,and the contrivers of all this mischief.—(Tremendous cheering for some time.) I announce it now that I shall devote not, perhaps, some years, but whatever time I have to spare of my life, to the impeachment of those men. Their name is the "inhuman Ministry," and within the last week they have proved before the world their want of huma nity. They won't give the poor man cheap bread. They will keep it dear in order that Lord Stanley and other Lords may live in luxury. They are inhuman, for they told the majority twice that the poor children should labour as before. They call the men Jack Cades for supporting the poor children in opposition to the op presssion of the'rich. If they keep this corn-law on one hand—if they will not give up this corn-law, and still keep up the hours of labour, I will call them the inhuman Minis try. What I want is that England should understand the case of the Irish. And now for this charge of conspiracy— this indictment, thirty-six yards of parchment in length —literally so—thirty-six yards of an indictment. They made out a list of forty-one meetings, and they called meeting in public and speaking in public a conspiracy, Did they produce a man, a spy who had attended our meetings ? They did produce a man—they degrad e d a man belonging to a most useful, and—when faithfully performed—a most honourable, prosession ; they turned one of these men into a spy and an informer. But he had nothing to tell except what every body knew long before. The main information against me at the trial was the public newspapers. I had been so discreet—such a prudent conspirator in my declarations, that every thing against me was in the newspapers —every thing kept so secret that it was all in the newspapers.—(Cheers.) After adverting at length to the anomalous proceedings taken against - him by the Government, he thus eon tinued—My impeachment of the Ministry is this—that being employed openly, publicly, and legally to obtain this object, I should, at the end of nine months, discover myself to have been a conspirator all that time, without knowing it for one hour; that there should be a batch of newspaper articles, of scraps of speeches, and of old ballads—for there were both ; and that all this should be turned into this dark, myste rious, unintelligible, mystical crime, called a conspi racy. Why, no Government deserves to hold office that would preside over the hatching of such a charge. There would be no safety for Ireland ; there would be no safety for England. - Many of you have been engaged in the factory agitation ; you were engaged last year in agi tating against Sir James Graham's endeavour to take the education of the children of the Dissenters from their own parents and clergy, and place it in the hands of the Established Church.—(Hear, hear.) That agitation was a conspiracy, according to the Irish doctrine. You have had meetings, too, for the repeal of the corn-law. That agitation was a conspiracy, according to Irish law. When you were looking for Parliamentary reform, that was conspiracy, according to this doctrine ; and we now, as I trust, shall look for more reform, for the specimen we hate got has not encouraged us to remain where we are. I hope we shall go on until every man of 21 years of age shall be entitled to a vote in England.—(Cheers.) You all know that Sir James Graham referred the other night to one Jack Cade, a fellow who put to death an Archbishop of Canterbury, and hung a Chief Justice. Now I met the other night, in the lobby of the House of Commons, one of the supporters of Lord Ashley, and said to.him, " Surely they can't suspect you of any de sire to hang an Archbishop of Canterbury ?"—(Laugh ter.) " Oh, no," said he. " I don't suspect you of any such desire," said I, " but if you have any inclination to hang a Chief Justice, I could spare you one."--(Con tinued roars of laughter.) There is only one person in the entire trial that has found no one to defend him— every one else had somebody to excuse him. There was an excuse for the striking out of the Catholics from the jury, and thus repealing the Emancipation Act ; there . was an excuse for leaving out the liberal Protestants ; an excuse for the slipping out of names from the list ; but nobody ever tried an excuse for the Lord Chief Justice.—(Hear, hear.) Nobody said one word for him. He did not say one word in favour of the traversers, and so don't blame me if I don't say one word for him.—(Cheers and laughter.) But I do say, that if ever there was a case for impeachment I have a case for impeachment.—(Hear, hear.) At all events, I will proclaim to my countrymen the gratifying, the delightful intelligence, that, for the first time, an immense rroportion of the people of England are deci dedly in favour of Ireland, and determined on obtaining her rights.—(Enthusiastic cheering.) I admit that you were right and I was wrong. I always mentioned that there were some generous and noble spirits that felt for the wrongs of Ireland, but I never proclaimed until now, in the face of Europe, that there is a union of the wealthier classes of Englishmen with their poorer brethren in favour of the' rights of Ireland—a fact that shall be cherished in the inmost core :of my heart—a fact which will induce me to declare to my countrymen, that never again shall a dis tinction be made between the people of England and the people of Ireland, that all past differences shall be for gotten, and that, however the Government may conduct itself, the generous-minded people of England will ever be lauded by me with the most ardent feelings of grati tude and admiration.—(Great cheering.) I look for re peal—l am going to look for it still, because I see no prospect of relief in this country. If we cannot get jus tice from the English Parliament, we are bound to look for it from our own Parliament. But they say the repeal of the union would be separation from England. I utterly deny that. I say more, that whatever incon venience Ireland may suffer from the present connexion, if the repeal of the union would bring separation I would not agitate for it.—(Hear, hear, and fipplause.) It will be extremely useful for both countries to be combined in the bond ofperfect affection and mutual interests. There was no separation until Castlereagh, by the vilest of crimes, destroyed our Parliament and carried the union. I am now going back to Ireland, and shall bear with me a lasting remembrance of what my country owes to England. I am going back to still struggle for the re dress of the grievances of which we have to complain; and one of the first to which public attention must be directed is the Church. I want an equalisation of all Churches by not paying any of them by the State, but to leave every man to pay his own Church. I will cheer the - hearts of the Irish people by the news which I shall bring them from this side of the Channel, but it has travelled to them already by the press ; and I can tell you, before I see them, that their hearts are grateful. One of the first motions I shall make in the Association when I return shall be to move a vote of thanks to the people of England for the generous sympathy which they have manifested towards my country. But thanks is too feeble a tern; it shall be a vote expressive of the grati tude and affection of the Irish people towards the ho nest and just Englishmen who have so nobly stepped • forward as their friends the moment they felt satisfied that a judicial wrong was perpetrated towards them selves. I said, at the commencement of these judicial proceedings, that I was unconscious of having com mitted any offence, legal or moral—l say the same now, although a verdict has been obtained branding me as a onspirator; and I shall be of the same opinion, even if the Government should inflict punishment—Celt le crime gui fait la honte, et non pas fechafaud —lt is the crime, not the punishm en t, o f w hi c h a man ought to be ashamed. I feel I have committed no crime for which I ought to be legally punished, and I believe that there are a great many of the same opinion. Let what will be the result, I go back to Ireland rejoicing that a real union exists, at. length between the Irish and English people—that bywords and animosity shall be for ever forgotten, and that both shall unite in the glorious cause of liberty, and never cease till their exertions are crowned with success.—(Cheers.) The people of both countries shall unite as brothers and fellow-sufferers, they shall stand together,against class legislation and oligarchical tyranny, and when both are thus combined they will be too strong fur their enemies. The man does not deserve • the name of a human being who does not love liberty, and when Irishmen • and Englishmen are united in its glorious cause, they will make their country the most powerful and prosperous on the earth.—(Cheers.) For . my part, it is my consolation and delight. lam a moun taineer. I was born on the mountain brow, and be neath me the wild waves of the ocean were breaking, coming in undivided from the coast of Labrador, till they struck and broke on the rocks beneath my feet. I list ened to the sounds of nature around me till they seemed like voices from eternity, proclaiming to me my duty, and bidding me to struggle for so lovely a land.— (Loud cheers.) Yes, they may prevent me this year from visiting those mountains—(Cries of " Never, never ")—which have won my affections, which by their wildness and beauty hare filled my heart with love fl ir my - native liw4;.Tand =for its brave, its generous, its pious, its moral, its temperate people.— (Cheers.) Oh, Ido delight in letting my soul expatiate over the entire soil. I like to contemplate all that nature and nature's God has done for her ; I like to see her po pulation springing up around me ; and when tyranny wrings drops of blood from them, my heart weeps for them, and I will be in the grave before I cease to struggle for them. (The Hon. and Learned Gentleman concluded a speech, the delivery of which occupied an hour and five minutes, amidst a thunderous and prolonged burst of applause.) Thanks were then voted to the Chairman and the meeting separated. INHUMAN CONDUCT OF THE MASTER OF A UNION WORKHOUSE. (From the Weekly Dispatch of this day.) About a month ago a poor man, named William Hearnden, a vendor of writing paper, called at the office of the Dispatch, in an agony of mind that cannot be described without har rowing up the feelings of our readers, and related that his little daughter Emma, an inmate of the Blean union poor house at Herne, had, by order of the governor, been locked up in the dead-house of the establishment, as a punishment for wetting her bed. This statement was corroborated by a letter the poor fellow held in his hand from another daughter (Elizabeth), who had visited Emma in the union, and learned from her the ill treatment she had experienced. The editor of the Dispatch at once communicated with the Poor-law Commissioners, at Somerset House, through the medium of Edwin Chadwick, Esq. In his letter the matte, was briefly stated, and the Commissioners, greatly to their credit, at once directed the Board of Guardians to prosecute an investigation into the business, and acquaint them with the result. The Board accordingly instituted an inquiry—what an inquiry ! and came to the conclusion that Emma Hearnden had never been within the walls of the dead-house by day or night, and that the guardians were perfectly satisfied that such were the facts.! Of course such a conclusion as this sagacious Board arrived at was sufficient to throw discredit upon our statement ; but, after the lapse of a few days, having in the meantime made further inquiry, we again thought proper to hint to the Poor-law Commissioners, that not only was our statement corroborated by some observa tions made by, the editor of the Kent Herald, but that that spirited individual had stated that " too great severity was used in punishing the boys and girls in the house by flogging." Never, until this moment, could we discover the utility of a triumvirate sitting at Somerset-house. We now, however, see how necessary it is that there should be a con trolling power, if it be only for the purpose of correcting the errors and inhumanity of guardians. We can perceive, that if this triumvirate would act with greater liberality towards the poor, the Poor-law Act, instead of a curse, might prove a blessing to persons in poverty. Had there been no con trolling power, the conduct of the master of the Blean union would have appeared as pure as unsunned snow. But the Commissioners were dissatisfied with the guardians' report. They placed no faith in its correctness, and accordingly they appointed an investigation to take place before Mr. Hall ; and a more searching inquiry, we believe, was never insti tuted. Our reporter was present during the whole of the proceedings, and by that gentleman we have been placed in possession of a full and faithful report of the investigation ; but the following outline will be found sufficient to establish the truth of our statement, and confirm the guilty, the crimi nal, and atrocious conduct of the master. The inquiry took place in the board-room of the union house at Herne-common, on Monday, and the meeting was declared by the Commissioner, at the request of several of the guardians, to be an open one, in consequence of which the room thrwaghout the day was crowded by persons Jrom Herne ' Horn A-bay, and surroun di ng p l aces. Mr. Walker, solicitor, of Call tcrbury, attcntlocl t. watch the proceedings on the party of the accused. and . Mr. T. T. De Lasaux, Coroner for East Kent, kindly stepped forward on behalf of the poor friendless child. The following guardians of the respective parishes were present :—Mr. Rammell, (Chairman); Mr. G. Goddard, Vice-Chairman; Mr. Ryder; Mr. W. F. Hilton ;Mr. Isaac Sladden ; Mr. Wootton, Chislet ; Mr. Wootton, Westbere ; Mr. Knight ; Mr. W. Denne ; Mr. Bedwell ; Mr. F. Neame : Mr. Wacher ; and Mr. G. Austen. Mr. HALL briefly opened the business, after which Emma Hearnden was called in and examined. She stated that she was between nine and ten years of age, and that up to Fri day last, at which time Mr. De Lasaux took her away, she had been an inmate of the workhouse, and had lived there nearly two years, during which period she had often been shut up in a room called the dead-house, by order of the master, who would often, when he came up to read prayers to the children, ask if she had " wet her bed ;" and if the other girls said yes, he used to say, " then she shall go down to the dead-room." Sometimes she was taken there, and sometimes she went on being told to go, as she dared not re fuse. On one occasion, about a year ago, she was taken there by the "young mistress" (the daughter of the master), at which time the body of Mrs. Ingleton, who had died the day before, was in the room ; the body was covered over with a sheet, but the face was not ; it was lying on a board, and some straw under the head, and two carpenter's stools (trestles) supported it from the ground. She cried very much and begged to be let out ; she was placed in the dead house shortly after breakfast, and was released just before dinner time; and on the following day, in the afternoon, she was again placed there, and the body was still lying there. On this occasion she was not let out till it was " darkish ;" the women and children were about going to bed. Sometimes she was locked in and sometimes not. One or more times she slept there, when there was a bed carried in for her, and on these occasions she was locked in, but when she was not, she did not dare to come out, and if she cried, her young mistress would bring a cane and beat her on the back. Witness be lieved that she had told one of the gentlemen present (meaning the guardians), but could not identify which ; but not when she was examined by them a short time ago, as she was afraid to do so, as if she had she would have been punished, not by the guardians—they had never punished her, or ordered her to be punished, but she was afraid of the master, who has often slapped her with his hands for the offencealluded to, and he said if she said anything about him when she went out he would give it her when she came home again. Mr. Goddard (one of the guardians) said, at the time the inquiry took place he was the visiting guardian for the week. He went round the yard with the child. She did not say that she had been locked up in the dead-house. She showed him a dormitory in which she had been placed by herself, and which statement was also reported to the board.

Sarah Overy, also in the workhouse at the same time, cor roborated the last two witnesses. She also assisted in re moving the body of Mrs. Ingleton ; she went twice to the window to pacify the child, and persuade her not to cry so. She also deposed to a bed being carried down to the room for the child to sleep on, but she was, on that occasion, let out at bed time. Believed that this was after Mrs. Ingleton was buried • On the second day, the Court was opened at eleven o'clock, and was again soon filled by an anxious auditory. Previous to the examination of the witnesses, Mr. Ausurr said that the rate-payers of the ville of the Archbishop's Palace had come to the resolution of engaging Mr. De Lasaux, professionally, to watch the case in their name on behalf of the child. Mr. DE LASAUX then called a woman named Sarah Chees man, aged 77 years, but her evidence went merely to prove the testimony which was admitted by the master on the former investigation before the Board of Guardians—namely, that the child had been shut up one night in a down-stair room away from the other children. This closed the case for the child. Mary Walker, on behalf of the master, was first called in, and on being sworn said—She was between 15 and 16 years old, and had been an inmate of the workhouse for eight years. She knew Emma Hearnden, and loved her, and Emma loved her in return. 'The Hearndens had been there from the 2d of December, 1842. Emma was never punished. Never kept on bread and water. Never locked up. Never pu nished in any other way. Emma was in the habit of wetting her bed, but never punished for it. Had been reprimanded, as the other girls had complained to the mistress about it, and she had been threatened to be sent down to the straw room to sleep, but she never was sent down. The threat was only said to frighten her. The straw-room is one of the lower rooms away from the other sleeping rooms. It had been formerly the dead-room, but not for the last twelve months. The dead-room is now two doors from it. Mrs. Ingleton died on the 12th of March. No girl could be shut up without witness knowing it. Emma Hearnden was once shut up, it was in April, but does not remember what day of the month it was, for wetting her bed. The school mistress shut her up (Miss Sarah Bailey acts as upper school mistress) only about one hour. Thinks it was on a Tuesday about two „. ---.•-- - ---- z --- ) _- --, . --'%--- , .... --- ------; I ~ --- . , " _ ' ,a„...--e....-L-'e 7r- C ..................... .. ..e-e --- - c -- _ ----' . - er y M by rs.:: i r i s g i l s e t t e o r n ß 's ets: —:.other girls talking 4°-- .ni: sisteri i n and - - - ...,...t ~, :•::.,q,:*::, A, ,:0.

I '; I'. Mr. Walker said, " No ;" it had been intended to have ex amined Sarah Bailey, "the young mistress" so often named, but he should decline doing so. Mr. HALL remarked, that Mr. Walker had been well ad vised. At the request of Mr. De Lasaux, Elizabeth Hearnden was again called in, but Mr. Hall said it was quite unnecessary to re-examine her as to the statement of her having shut her sister up, but she was again questioned, and positively denied it ; and further, as to some statements made by Mrs: White and 'the girl Mary Walker. Mr. HALL then thanked the guardians for their attend ance, and remarked that he felt much pleasure in saying that the very full audience, during the investigation, had conducted themselves with great propriety, and it was an en couragement to him to persevere in his viewsmf giving every possible publicity to such proceedings. He added, that the affair would be laid before the Commissioners. This is the evidence to support our statement; and the public may glean from it that, but for the exposures of the press—when that engine is fearlessly employed, and ar rayed on the side of truth—what gross inhumanity would prevail in our public establishments, and how much poverty would be exposed to the brute nature of man in authority. Here we have the case of a poor child, whose parent, to our ' knowledge, has seen better days, thrown into a dead house, as a punishment, because the little creature wetted the bed on which she slept! Never was anything half so inhuman— so monstrously brutal—as the conduct of the master has proved. If ever man possessed a demon heart the Governor of the Blean Union is that person; his conduct to Emma Hearden must be execrated by persons of all colours and creeds; and nothing short of expulsion from his situation will satisfy an outraged public. Mrs. Holborn's evidence as to the fact of finding the child in the dead-house, with the corpse of Mrs. Ingleton, affords a dreadful proof of the shock ing treatment to the juvenile paupers. Mrs. Holborn said " little Emma was locked in the dead-house by Sarah Bailey, the master's daughter; when she saw the poor thing, she was clasping her hands and begging to be re leased !" The witness Browning corroborated Mrs. Hol born's statement; but she (lid not speak to the little prisoner, seeing " that she hardly dared to do so to her own children!" What a very hell upon earth must a union be, where motherly women and children, if they look awry, are liable to be punished! We now come to the evidence for the defence ; and, in the first place, a girl named Mary Walker is called. She declares that Emma was never locked up or punished for wetting her bed ; and then admits that she was locked up, and says, moreover, that Emma Hearn den's sister released her. Another witness, one Sarah White, told so many lies for Miss Bailey and her father, as to de stroy her credibility. In fact, the evidence for the defence was a weak invention, and went far to support the charge. We have no wish to triumph over a man whose guilt has now been proved beyond the possibility of doubt ; but we must take credit to ourselves for having brought the matter to an issue most satisfactory to the ends of justice, but most damnatory to the reputation of the master and his amiable daughter. These exposures are calculated to do immense good. They tend to curb the vicious, and rein in those whose natures, if they were left alone. would outrage and disgrace humanity. Our reporter IG.s especially noticed the conduct of Mr. De Lasaux, G. Austen, Esq., and Mr. Sharp, of the Castle Inn, who have been indefatigable in their endeavours to promote the ends of justice, Indeed, such has been the excitement at Canterbury, Herne Bay, and their neighbourhoods, that persons of all shades of politics, warmly pressed forward in behalf of the little girl who, it has now been proved, was so.- brutally treated at the instance of the master and his daugh ter Betsy_ LORD ASHLEY. AND THE FAC -TORY QUESTION. The following letter has been addressed by Lord Ashley to Mr. Howarth, the Chairman of the Delegates from the ma nufacturing districts of Lancashire and Yorkshire, in de fence of the course his Lordship has taken upon the Factory Bill : " London, March 29. " GENTLEMEN,—AS representatives of a large body of the operatives engaged in the mills and factories of Lancashire and Yorkshire, you have desired me to give you some expla nation of the course I have thought it my duty to pursue in consenting to the withdrawal of the Bill, and the substitu tion of another. " The Government proposed such a step to the House, as the only means of extricating the question from the difficul ties into which it had been thrown by contradictory votes. The vote of the House upon the second clause had virtually determined a ten hours' limitation ; but the vote of the House on the Bth clause had actually declared that there should be no such thing; the advantage, therefore, that I had gained in the first instance was repealed in the second. " When her Majesty's Ministers signified their intention of asking leave to withdraw the Bill, I requested time for the consideration of their proposal. The interval was fully em ployed in seeking and in accepting the best advice. I was urged by Members of all parties, from both sides of the House, to offer no resistance to the motion of the Govern ment; a large number of those gentlemen who had supported me on the question of ' time,' would not have supported me in opposing the request of Sir James Graham ; and had I resisted it, I should, upon a division, have been found in a very small minority. "Neither could the debate and the division have led to any satisfactory issue ; the discussion would have been taken, not on the great question of limiting the hours of labour, but on mere matters of business and points of order. We shall be enabled, by the present arrangement, to pursue a shorter and more intelligible course ; the debate may then be com menced by an amendment to the new Bill, or by some simi lar mode ; and the division will declare the opinions of those who vote whether ten or twelve hours shall be the period assigned for labour in the factories. " - You may rest assured that I will never relax my efforts for the accomplishment of our great object; but I must en treat of you a continuance of that confidence which you have never yet withdrawn. A zealous but legitimate perseverance on your part will, by God's blessing, insure us an ultimate, and not remote success.—l am, Gentlemen, your very obe dient servant, " ASHLEY. " Mr. Howarth, Chairman of the Delegates." CAUTION TO SAVINGS' BANKS.—Last week two per sons, one stating that he was an attorney, and the other that he was one of the executors, called on a stockbroker in the City, and produced to him a probate of the will of Mr. Simons, coffee-house keeper, in the Blackfriars-road, whom they stated to be dead, and said they wished to know the amount of stock which stood in the deceased's name in the public funds, alleging that they had ascertained the amount which he had deposited in a savings' bank. The broker being busy at the time merely told them that it was not his busi ness to give information, and they left. It turns out that Mr. Simons is alive and well. Where did those persons get the Prerogative-office stamp?

SPRING.--The prevalence of cutaneous visitations at this period of the year inculcates the necessity of pre serving the Skin in a pure and healthy state, so that its func tions may be duly performed. The great celebrity which " Rowland's Kalydor" exclusively maintains as an active yet mild and soothing agent for extirpating all impurities, and imparting a healthy freshness to the Skin, is most pleasingly evinced at the present season. This balmy and odoriferous creamy liquid is composed of extracts from the most rare flowers and herbs of an eastern clime—its discovery by a lady of rank, was no less singular than its effects have been felicitous during the last thirty years. Its universally great demand excites the cupidity of unprincipled shopkeepers, .who give the title of " Genuine" Kalydor to some compounds of their own manufacture of the most deleterious character, containing mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the Com plexion, and by their repellant action endangering health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to see that the words ,‘ Rowland's Kalydor" are on the wrapper.—All others are fraudulent counterfeits. -. MR.

On being told by the Commissioner to look at Mr. De Lasaux, she exclaimed, " Oh, yes, I forgot, he and - another gentleman came . about a fortnight ago; the matron was present." Witiftes then commenced a long tale as to what took place, when the Commissioner said, "Though you remember all this, you forgot it till I told you Mr. De Lasaux was at your elbow." Witness then said that Emina did not tell Mr. D. much ; thought she was afraid. Coinmissioner" Now, OR your oath, what did the child say in reply ?" Witness—" That she was afraid of Mr. De Lasaux.- She then corroborated the witnesses, Holborn, Browning, and Overy, as to the young mistress having known that the body was in the dead 7 room. From questions, sug gested by Mr. De Lasaux, she admitted that the matron had said, had she known what he had come about, she would not have let him in. Sarah Walker, nearly 14 years of age, stated she had been an inmate eight years.

Never remembers master inquiring about her habit of wetting the bed. Has heard Miss Bailey say she should be put into the dead-room, and she was once put there in the month of April, and was kept there only one hour. •Does not know of her having been shut up there about the time Mrs. Ingleton died. This witness made observations calculated entirely to destroy her credibility. The Rev. W. Vnple stated, that from hearing the reports in the papers, he, on the 25th of February, after service, asked both the boys and girls collectively and separately, if any of them had been shut up in the night by order of the governor, and they said,'" No." He named an instance when some boys were to have been brought before the Board for misconduct towards the schoOlmaster, when the governor pleaded for them, on account that he had himself given them a good caning. Mr. HALL then asked if they intended to produce any further evidence? ~..~_. DEFERRED ANNUITIES Another Bonus will be declared in the present year.

F. FERGUSON CAMROUX, Sec. MASIIAS. The last recorded sales of Beer on the spot (Oct. 18) stood thus : Allsopp 7O rupees per hhd. Bass 65 rupees per hhd. Messrs. Bass and Co., state, under this head, that some of their Beer had been sold at 68 rupees 8 annas. This, however, as it ap pears from the statement of Messrs. Haviside and Co., was for »le of the present season to arrive; while, at the same period, Mess's. Hall and Co., of Madras, had refused that price for 4CO hhds. of Allsopp's. The attention of the public is requested to the ingenuity of Messrs. Bass and Co.'s representation in this instance. BOMBAY. The sales of Ale at this plaie,;sfeiPiice Current (Nov. 1), were— Allsopp 200 hhds. at 65 rups. Bass rups. to 61 cups. The s we Price Current (Dec. ) says We have been apprised of a sale of 50 h has. of Allsopp and Co., at 65 rupees per hhd; of Bass's two sales have been reported to us, one of 52 hhds., at 61 rupees, and the other of 25 hhds., at 60 rupees. Another Price Current (Dec. 1) remarks We have heard mention of 2.0 hhds of Allsopp's having been sold, since the dispatch of the last mail, at 65 rupera per hhd., which cleared the market for the time. A furtl - er supply of 200 hhds. has sincecome in, of which some had been previously sold at the above price to arrive. The de mand for this brew has been brisk throughout the month, arising, as we understand, from the very favourable reports received from the country of the quality of last saason's brew." SIIIPIFIEN TS OF ALE TO INDIA. Under this head Messrs. Bass have attempted to take an advan tage in publishing the exports of Messrs. Allsopp from the Ist of October to the Ist of February last. The returns are, however, grossly untrue, inasmuch as they have understated the shipments of Messrs. Allsopp in that time to the extent of 600 11 1, ds. to Calcutta alone. It is true that Messrs. Allsopp's shipments at this period were unusually small, and that, with the exception of about 200 nhds., their shipping season did not commence till late in November, in conse quence of very extensive alterations and enlargements in their brew ery, which increased business obliged them to make. It is necessary toobserve, however, that there is great possibility of error in arriving at the correct account of exports of Beer, and on this account Messrs. Allsopp have not ventured to publish the shipments from 1842 to 1843, lest they should not be strictly correct, but from Oc -1812, they we re as f o ll ows, as a d m i tte d b y tober, 1841, to October, Messrs.

Allsopp have been thus com pelled to expose. Messrs. Bass and Co were the first to adopt a :.ystern of advertising : their intention to assume a position in India with regard to the consumption of their Beer, to which they have no claim, cannot be misunderstood; and, howev.r repugnant to their own feelings, Messrs. Allsopp consider it due to themselves and the public to expose the misrepresentations which have been so industriously circulated, and defend the pre.eminent position which Ale of their manufacture has invariably held both in the Indian and the home markets.
