Counsel for the plaintiff, Mr. Cockburn and Mr. James; for the defendant, Mr. Sergeant Shee and Mr. Bytes. The cause of action in this case was for the recovery of two bills of exchange, one for 5001., and another for 6001. The case was entered upon at twelve o'clock on Saturday, and was adjourned at the rising of the Court to this day, when it was resumed at half_ past nine o'clock, and is likely to occupy the entire day, there being 3 , :vcral witnesses still to be examined. CRIMINAL CO URT.-(T HIS DAY.) The July Sessions commenced this morning, before the Lord Mayor, and Aldermen Challis and Hunter. The Common Juries having been empanelled, The RECORDER proceeded to deliver his charge to the grand jury. He said, the calendar before him contained a small number of cases compared with those usually contained in the calendar, from session to session; which was to be attributed to the short in terval between the last and present session. Nevertheless, it contained several cases of importance, calculated to demand at their hands grave and full consideration ; but they were, at the same time, generally speaking, cases relating more to matters of fact than of law. There were five charges against persons with intent to do grievous bodily harm, and six charges against persons for uttering forged Instruments, knowing them to be forged. There was one charge against a person for rape, and a charge of manslaughter against a party who was the father of the deceased person. With regard to the latter charge, it was their duty to inquire whether the evidence went to establish that death was caused by the act of the party accused. If they should arrive at that conclusion, they would next inquire under what circumstances that death was so occasioned. Without going at All into the circumstances detailed in the depositions, he thought it right to inform them that the point with which they would have more immediately to deal was, whether death was in consequence of the party charged, be. cause the circumstances detailed in the depositions amount to that which constituted the crime of manslaughter. The evidence which would be adduced in this case would be that of members of the same family, the accused and the deceased being father and son. With regard to the charge of rape, he would merely state that it appeared to him that if the facts contained in the depositions were established, they should find a true bill against the party charged. The charges of uttering forged instruments involved mere matters of fact, not of law. But if, contrary to his expectations, any difficulty should arise, the Court would afford them the best assistance in its power. The same observations applied to the cases of cutting and wounding, but there was one case which was a little out of the ordinary course. The charge to which he referred was one against three persons, two as principals in the act, and the other as an accessory before the fact. The offence imputed to those actively engiged in the commission of the crime was for injuring the person of the prosecutrix, by exposing her to an explosion of gas caused by contact with a lighted candle, they having first removed that which confined the gas, and consequently rendered it dangerous by the approach of a candle. The person charged with being an accessory to the commission of the act was not in the house at the time, but was seen for an hour and a half before it on the evening preceding the act, but he did not enter the house; but the charge was made against him from expressions which he had uttered at various times, and from other circumstances. He had resided for a long time in the house of the prosecutrix, a publican, and the day before the offence was committed, an application was made to a magistrate in consequence of the conduct of this person. It would be for them to say whether there was sufficient evidence to warrant them in putting him on his trial—whether the offence was committed at his Instigation. The Learned Gentleman then detailed the law on the subject, and held that if it were proved that ho bad instigated the other parties to the commission of the offence, he was equally guilty, though absent at its commission. By the Ist of Victoria, whoever unlawfully or wilfully caused to be delivered, or to be received by any person, any corrosive fluid, or destructive matter, with intent to burn, maim, or disfigure any person, or to do some grievous bodily harm, should be guilty of felony, and, being convicted, shall be liable to be transported beyond the seas for his or her natural life, or for any term not less than fifteen years, or to be imprisoned for a period not iscceeding three years. It was a most painful cir cumstance that, session after session, persons charged with the crime of cutting and wounding, with intent to do some grievous bodily harm, and the use, in sudden frays and quarrels, by the lower classes, of instruments dangerous to life, were constantly brought before them. Out of 60 cases of larcency, 27 were against ser vants. The total number of cases in the calendar was 102, which would probably be augmented by 20, or more, before the close of their labours. He should, therefore, remit them to their duties. No. ll.—lncome and Charge of the Consolidated Fund, in the Quarters ended the sth July, 1844, and the sth July, 1845.

( FROM TILE MORNING PAPERS OF TIIIS DAY.) TIMES.—The return of the quarter's revenue does not present the same prosperous appearance as many that have preceded it. Thus, although there is an increase in the Customs for the year ending on the sth inst. of 36,8861., there is a decrease on the comparison with the quarter terminating at the same period of 1844, of more than ten times that amount, or 369,6871. In the Excise, in like manner, the falling off in the quarter more than counterbalances the increase for the year—a retrograde movement for which it is net easy to find an explanation from causes which lie under public observation, and will, therefore, be re. garded with some degree of disquietude by the country generally. The working of the mad speculations which have prevailed for the last twelve or eighteen months, is shown in the great increase under the head of Stamps, which have added to the income 328,8201. on the year, and 132,0431. on the quarter; and if the common opinion is a just one, that these speculations have injured commerce by pro ducing an unnatural rise in some prices, and in diverting the at tendon of mercantile men from the sober course of trade, it would follow that to this is, in part, to be ascribed the decline in the Customs—an evil by no means to be compensated for by a gain arising out of what may be teimed illegitimate sources. The same results appear, though not to the same extent, in the general re. turn, the increase on the year being 847,1481., while the falling off on the quarter is 739,8471. The Pest-office has increased 47,0001. on the year, while the quarter's return is identical with that of 1844, exhibiting neither increase nor decrease. In the account for the Contolidated Fund there appears the satifactory item of an application of 1,585,6091. to the Sinking Fund, against 523,8571. in the corresponding quarter of 1844; and the probable amount of Exchequer bills required to meet the charge on that fund for the quarter just ended is only 2,254,4331. The re-action in the Cus toms and Excise, however, more than outweighs all the favourable features of the present return. _ HERALD.—The Revenue returns for the year ending on Saturday, present another testimony to that course of rapidly ad vancing prosperity, which has distinguished the last three or four years from any equal period in the history of this or of any other country. The net increase of revenue upon the last year, as compared with the eminently productive year ending twelve months ago, amounts to no less than eight hundred and forty seven thousand pounds. And this, notwithstanding all the large reductions in the sugar duties, the cotton duties, the glass duties, the auction duties, and other sources of revenue. These reduc. tions have nearly all fallen within the last quarter, which, there fore, exhibits a decrease, but not much more than half the de crease that it would exhibit had the reductions been all loss. At present we are not in possession of the means of showing the several articles upon which respectively increase and decrease have arisen; but we are able to congratulate our fellow-subjects, upon indisputable evidence, of a course of general prosperity without example. CHRONICLE.—The revenue accounts for the quarter, which appear in another part of our journal, are extremely satisfactory. They present one of the most convincing proofs which has yet been adduced of the prodigious advantages of cheap food and low duties in augmenting the revenue of the State. At the beginning of this session Sir Robert Peel lowered the duty on sugar, abolished the duties on cotton and staves, and on a great variety of small arti cles, which he calculated would reduce the Customs revenue on the year by the sum of 2,418,0001., or on the quarter 603,0001. The accounts show that the diminution is only 369,3871. ; the Customs revenue for the quarter, therefore, is in reality nearly 246,0001. better than in the corresponding quarter of last year. Similar remarks apply to the Excise. The reduction In this branch of the revenue for the quarter, as shown by the tables, is 149,9081. ; but Sir Robert Peel calculated in February that the Excise revenue would lose on the year, by the abolition of the duties on auctions and glass, 892,0001., or on the quarter 223,0901., whereas the loss is only 149,9081. The duties which remain, therefore, of the Customs and Excise branches of the revenue have yielded considerably more than in the corresponding quarter of last year, in conjunction with comparative cheapness and the abolition of duties. The other branches of the standing revenue show a corresponding increase on the quarter. The Stamps have increased 132,000/. ; the Assessed Taxes 10,0001.; and the Property-tax 157,0001. In these results there is great encourage. "rent to allow the utmost possible extension of trade, by the re moval of all duties which are not indispensable for the public service, and all restrictions but those which are necessary to levy the duties. For the Chesterfield Stakes, on Thursday, Free Lance, Fraudulent, if he runs, and Sempstress, will manage the stake among them. The acceptances for the Goodwood Stakes, fifty-eight in number, have already appeared in print. They promise a very interesting race, and, most decidedly, a great betting one ; the following seven, being very nicely " in," will, no doubt, furnish the winner, viz.:—Beat Bower, Roderick, Venus, Lightning, Joe Lovell, Libel, and Queen blab. For the Liverpool Cup, Milton, Rowena, and Portobello, look well. The entries for the Ebor Handicap amount to 114, of which I expect 57 will accept ; of these, in my opinion, Pagan, Milton, Roderick, Rowena, Alamodc,'Vol-au-vent, Poor Sol dier, Dr. Husband, Coheiress, Portobello, and the Castaway filly, will be found the best. The St. Leger betting is strange, very strange, but it will be stranger still before the 17th of September; at present, I see nothing that is likely to beat Pantasa and the Baron over such a course as that at Doncaster. I am, Sir, yours, &c., THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF. CRICKET-KENT AND SUSSEX. The game was resumed on Saturday morning, and the betting was " a horse to a hen" upon Kent, but re markable enough, the remaining four wickets of Kent got only 14 runs, and Sussex was put in upon 208. The first wicket of Sussex (Deans) fell for 4 runs, the second wicket for 14 runs, the third for 43, the fourth for 56 ; and when five wickets were down, Sussex had succeeded in wiping off upwards of 100 runs.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) . . Sarah Whiter, aged 17, and Harriet, her sister, aged 16, very meanly clad, but remarkably good.looking girls, were charged with the following daring act of shoplifting : _ _ Between four and five o'clock on Saturday afternoon last, the prisoners were observed to pass and re-pass several times the shop of Mr. Peter Robinson, of No. 107, Oxford-street, linen draper, and, at length, they entered just within the shop.door, and not per ceiving any person in the shop, they snatched out of the window a muslin dress, of the price of 65., with which they both set off' running. They had, however, been observed by Mr. Robinson's shopboy, who, giving the alarm, they were pursued and overtaken in Castle-street, Oxford-market, having thrown from them as they ran the dress in question. Mr. MALTBY asked the witness which of the prisoners took the dress out of the window ?—The witness said he thought it was the younger one, and that she handed it to the other. The prisoner Sarah (eagerly)—No, it was not my sister took the dress; I did it. The prisoner Henrietta—How can you say so ; you know I took it. Why do you wish to screen me ? (bursting Into tears, and bolding her hands before her face.) Mr. MALTBY ordered the ease to stand over for the present. ADVERTISER.—We publish in another column an abstract of the public revenue for the year and quarter ending on Saturday last. It will be seen that on the quarter, as compared with the corresponding quarter of last year, these is a deficiency in the Customs of 369,6871., and in the Excise, of 149,9081. Under the head Miscellaneous there is a deficiency on the quarter, as compared with the corresponding quarter last year, of 408,5351. The defal. cations in the two first departments can be satisfactorily explained. The decrease in the customs is mainly to be ascribed to the cir cumstance of a large sum having been refunded on sugars in bond, when the new Sugar Duties Bill came into opera tion. In conjunction with this cause of diminution, there is another, namely, the entire abolition of duties on many articles of minor importance. The defalca. tion under the head of Excise, is to be attributed to the total repeal of the glass and auction duties. The only subject for surprise is that the falling off in this department has been so inconsiderable. For the deficiencies in the Miscellaneous department, we are not able to account, though we feel assured, from the flourishing state of trade and commerce, and the healthy state of our financial affairs generally, the defalcation under that head is susceptible of a satis. factory explanation. It is fully expected that the consumption of sugar this year consequent on the reduction of the sugar duties, will exceed the estimate of the Premier, when making his finan cial statement, by at least 20,000 tons. What more triumphant proof could be desired of the effect which a reduction of duty has on the consumption of a necessary of life, than is afforded in this fact ? If an approach to free trade is productive of such results, what must be the advantages of entire freedom of trade ? FOOT-RACE ON WATERLOO-BRIDGR.—This morn ing the race between Harry Webb and M'Leash (alias The Unknown), came off on Waterloo•bridge. The men were matched to run 200 yards for 101. a side. Both men were con sidered " clippers." The former defeated Smith last week, and in consequence became the favourite in betting at 6 to 5. The distance was measured, and the men appeared at the start ing mark, and, after several false starts, they got away. Webb obtained half a yard in the start, and they rattled off at loco motive speed. Webb maintained a slight lead for 100 yards, when The Unknown came up, and they ran abreast of each other till within about ten yards of the goal. Bo'h men exerted every possible effort for success, and, arriving at the winning mark, The Unknown extended his arm, and was the first to touch the hankorcblef, his body being about a foot in the rear of Webb, who almost simultaneously breasted the handkerchief. The umpires then differed as to who was the winner, and Temperance, the celebrated pedes trian, being referee, was appealed to, awl decided that in ac cordance with the strict rules of pedestrian feats, Webb, having first brought himself to the mark, was the winner. The race was a closely contested end, and the friends of The Un known being very sangu;ne on his success, ventured large sums of money upon him, which the oprosite Tarty pocketed with great alacrity. The spectators assembled on the bridg. at the time of the race must have amounted to 700 or 800. Webb is matched against John Smith (the London champion), to run 120 yards for 201 , Webb to receive five yards start, to come off on Thursday next, upon Waterloo-bridge. The match creates much interest. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LIVERPOOL CUP. The official list in London up to half-past eleven o'clock on Saturday night, showed the following declarations of forfeit : CAMBRIDGE ELECTION.—The Cambridge Chronicle says our experience of election matters here, there never was an expected content which excited so little interest. There is no heartiness on one side or the other, and the electors, generally, manifest a very unusual indifference about the gentleman who is to have the honour of representing them." Mr. Shafto Adair had offered himself as a candidate on the Liberal interest. Mr. Kelly had not come forward, and it was therefore inferred that he would be provided for elsewhere. _ us WEATaEa.—Juaging from the appearances of the sky, and the continuous flashes of lig%tning which pre vailed for a great part of last night in the south-east, there must have been a severe thunder-storm somewhere in Kent and Surrey. The lightning, also occasionally extended towards the north-eat, followed by distant thunder. A heavy fall of rain took place about four in the morning, but the weather still continues sultry, though there i 3 a fine breze fr9in the west. The accounts in the provincial papers describe the weather as very tins, and the appearance of the crops most cheering. THE lIOI.IIOLiN BATUS-SWIMMING MATca A Sturm Cup.--On to-morrow (Tuesday) evening a very beauti ful chased silver cup, value ten guinea., will be presented by the proprietors of those splendid baths to the swiftest swimmer of 600 yards ; that is, he who shall prove himself the swiftest swimmer up and down the baths three times each way. To be contended far by gentlemen only who are members of the Swimming Club. Six names are entered, and the contest will commence at eight o'clock, when a great number of highly respect. able persons have intimated their intention of being present. The cup will become the bona jidc property of the winner, and will be presented to him in due form at the Club dinner, when the swim ming season closes. The Dutch steam-ship Batavia, which was due at the St. Katharine's wharf on Wednesday morning, but which did not, owing to the extreme tempestuous weather experienced on the passage, in consequence of the high winds and heavy squalls which prevailed at sea as well as on shore, arrive until nearly twelve o'clock at night, and had thirty-six oxen, and thirty-five cows on board, besides nearly eight hundred packages of cherries, thirteen baskets of yeast, thirteen of vegetables, and a quantity of mel:ons, and every other description of Dutch produce and manu facture. The cattle, halt of which were in the hold, and half on deck, were landed after examination by the veterinary surgeon, and delivered by the revenue officers immediately, with the ex ception of one, which had, owing to the rough weather and heat of the hold, died during the voyage, and was, therefore, unfit for human consumption. Application was subsequently made to the authorities for the dead ox to be landed, and delivered for the purpose of being seat to the knackers. The fruit was delivered imme diately on the arrival of the revenue officers on the following morning ;!and the Antwerpen shortly after arriving frcm Antwerp, with a number of passengers, &c., extra officers were placed on the station, to examine and deliver the baggage and effects of the two vessels, in order to examine matters, in consequence of which con. siderate arrangement, the passengers and their baggage, as well as the fruit, were dispatohed in a very short space of time. Accounts are brought of very boisterous weather indeed in the Channel, and . . all along the English and foreign coasts, during the last few days. The death of the beat on board was attributed to the unusually 172 1 CRICKET MATCHES FOR THE WEEK. 209 TUESDAY.-At Dulwich—The Dulwich (Victoria) v. the Peckham Eve Club.

The author, M referring to this singular cha racter, says— " In the year 1649 Cromwell visited Ireland in per son ; and so impetuous, sanguinary, and successful were his military enterprises there, that the traditionary cha racter which he bears among the native Irish, even at the present day, partakes less of the splendid fame of the able chieftain, than of the ghastly renown of a de stroying spirit ; and he is remembered, not as an armed missionary of a civilised cause, but as a being possessing a preternatural love and power of destruction. He cer tainly spread much misery and desolation throughout the kingdom, from which the frightful traces of the late rebellion had not been yet effaced ; and after performing many acts of exemplary vengeance, he left the Irish people more repressed than subdued, and more tranquil than contented. Ile afterwards summoned a Parliament at Westminster ; upon which occasion, to show his great contempt for the independence of Ireland, be summoned thirty Members from that kingdom as the legislative vassals, who were to perform on the part of their coun try, the last ceremonies of its humiliation. The college was exempted from any communion in this melancholy service, as Cromwell did not call upon it to return any representatives." st lb' st lb St. Lawrence, aged ... 9 0 Elixir, 5 yrs Attila, 6 yrs Zanoni, 5 yrs Discord, aged Ratan, 4 yrs 8 5 Cockamaroo, 4 yrs 6 0 The Cure, 4 yrs ...... ... 8 5 Lady Wildair, 3 yrs 6 0 John O'Gaunt, aged ... 8 3 Crosby, 4 yrs Napier, 5 yrs lied Deer, 4 yrs ... ...... 712 Coal-black Rose, 3 yrs 512 Valerian, 4 yrs 7 8 Best Bower, 4 yrs 5 8 Sorella, 4 yrs Baldersdale, 5 yrs Morpeth, 4 yrs ..

It was, in fact, the Revolution of 1688 which did so much good in England, that ren dered the feuds between Protestants and Catholics in Ireland almost irreconcileable, as the present state of the country attests. We quote the following extract as a proof:— " The university being again restored to that tranquil lity so congenial with its legitimate objects, continued to pursue its proper duties, and grow calmly upon the pub. lic favour until the period of the Revolution. It was then once more unhappily forced into collision with the political world. That event, which in England renovated a kingdom without the sacrifice of a citizen, and changed a dynasty by acclamation, was not as immediately auspi cious to the fortunes of Ireland. It plunged that nation into the calamities of civil war, maintained by parties equally fierce, and perhaps mutually vindictive ; it re tarded the regular course of improvement by the r, vival of ancient feuds, or the creation of such as have outlived the causes that produced them ; and it gave to the fierce and vulgar love of party, an alarming ascendant over the exercise of reason and the peaceful spirit of religion, which has ever since tended to keep the Irish people divided and unhappy, and amongst these lamentable consequences, the total ruin of this peaceful seat of learning had well nigh been completed, as we shall pre sently make manifest." We could quote many other interesting particulars relative to Trinity College, but they would hardly do justice to the views taken by the author, and we, therefore, refer the reader to the work itself. It may be interesting to our readers to know that the Rev. Charles Wolfe, author of the immortal ode on the death of Sir John Moore, was educated at this uni versity—that he was an intimate friend of the author, and of his lamented brother, the late John Sydney Taylor. • MAGAZINES.-CONTINUED. HOOD'S MAGAZINE. Mr. Rowcroft, the editor, continues his " Tales of the Colonies," and in the " Bushranger of Van Diemen's Lani" gives us a ludicrous account of a fight between a settler and a kangaroo, in which the settler got the worst of it. The best paper in the Number is " Lady Barbara's White Rose ; a tale of the Court of King James the First." The tale is well told, and the interest is kept up to the last : We are sorry to see this Maga zine dabbling in politics—" Corn-laws and Free-trade" is a rechauffee of the thousand-times-refuted arguments of the monopolists—arguments which even the advocates of the corn-laws in the House of Commons have them selves given up as untenable. Can it be that Mr. Row croft has engaged the Duke of Newcastle to write for Hood's Magazine? COLBURN'S UNITED SERVICE MAGA• ZINE. This Number opens with an account of" Nelson's second visit to Naples," and both for the fair fame of Nelson himself, and for the honour of our common country, we would that all record of the second visit (during which, to please an imbecile King and an abandoned woman, the hero of the Nile consented to the murder of Caraccioli) could be for ever blotted out of the page of history. We gladly turn to the next article, " Narrative of a sea trip to China in the autumn of 1844, by Heathcote Gooch, of the ship Duke of Bedford," a lively, well written narra tive, from which we extract the following account of an adventure on the homeward voyage with the pirates of Sumatra " We came through the Straits of Banca, Sunda, &c., but not without interruption from the pirates, who infest those parts, one of whom made an abortive attempt to board us in the night, by a trick that is now considered rather stale, though many crews have been murdered through such. Large portions of earth, covered with long wild grass, and sometimes with the addition of stumps of trees, are often seen in the above straits, floating down with the currents. These the pirates imitate, by constructing a raft, or something of that description, capable of holding a number of cut-throats, armed to the teeth, and over whom a covering, well calcu lated to deceive strangers, is placed, resembling the floating masses before named. So prepared, the pirates float down upon vessels in the night, and having succeeded in boarding them, proceed to murder the slumbering crew and plunder the cargo. While off the west coast of Sumatra, about nine o'clock one evening, one of those dens of infamy was quietly dropping down on our starboard-bow, when our look-out, suspecting its true character, ran and reported it to the officer of the watch. We had 'two six-pounders ready for them, besides abundance of small arms, and just as he was quietly dropping unto our bow, and within nice reach, we fired a gun to let him know we were not dozing. He still took no notice, but kept dropping on, thinking he should still deceive us with the fancy he was only a floating mass of earth. We now, however, took effectual means to put him on the right scent, by letting fly the contents of one of our six-pounders clean through him. We could plainly hear, by the howling inside, that our present was certainly not a welcome one. He instantly sheered off, by means of some contrivance we could not make out, and we saw no more of him." (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) CARLISLE PACES-FRIDAY. et lb The Queen's Plate of 100 gs.

O'Connor's paper, entitled " Twelvemonths Service inWestern Africa," to the attentive consideration of our legislators. It would appear from this, that the colony of Sierra Leone is of alt jobs the grossest. Not only is it the white man's grave—not only are large sums of money uselessly squandered annually in main taining a staff of officials who have nothing to do, but instead of being a sanctuary fur emancipated negroes, they are actually kidnapped for the free town itself, and s , ,hl into slavery. " On one occasion, a soldier of the Royal African Corps, while on sentry at the east battery, was persuaded to drink some palm wine, which had been previously drugged; and, on awaking from his stupor, ho found himself, arms, accou trements, and all, a prisoner at the mercy of some Mandinge slave-dealers. He made such a row, threatened so much, and fear of the consequences which might follow, operating at the same time in the robbers' mind, he was put on shore at a point near a British factory, and from which place he made his way back again to Sierra Leone." It ix of little use destroying barracoons at Gullinas, while we maintain at our proper cost a magazine like Freetown, to which Mending° slave dealers can resort whenever they want to replenish their stock. Unless Captain O'Connor's account be an actual fabrication, no time should be lost in abandoning the colony altogether —at all events, we hope the Legislature will, during the course of the ensuing session, institute a searching in quiry into its state and prospects. There are also seve ral valuable papers on strictly professional subjects in the present number of this magazine. TfIE RAILWAY REGISTER FOR JULY The eighth Number of this useful record of engineering and Public enterprise fur railways, canals, harbours, steam navigation, &c., improves upon its predecessors, and contains a great deal of information respecting se. veral important public works both in this country and abroad. Well-executed maps are published with several of the articles, for the purpose of rendering the details of projected railways more intelligible, among which we may mention " Railways in India," "Belgian Railways," .3' Great Eastern and Western Railway," and the " Lei cester and Bedford Railway." We extract the follow- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY E VENING, JULY 7, 1845 ing remarks on the " Battle of the Gauges," and are glad to find that the writer pays a just compliment to Mr. F. Shaw for the excellent speech he made in the House of Commons on the subject : " The Battle of the Gauges,' as the contest between the London and Birmingham, and the Great Western interests, is called, terminated on Friday, the 20th of June, in the way every man of reason and common sense must have antici pated, namely, in favour of the latter. Not to put the case offensively to either party, it must be remarked that the question whether the Great Western, in conjunction with the Grand Junction, should be allowed to open up a line of traffic to the north, independent altogether of the London and Bir mingham old trunk line, was a question which directly affected the pecuniary interests of the two parties, whilst it still more essentially involved the paramount interests of the public. This new line introduces a principle of wholesome competition, which, if it had been rejected, would have been hopelessly and for ever lost to the public ; for it cannot be doubted that whichever of these great interests had first possessed themselves of the vast tract of country through which this, as we may term it, interloping line passes, would have retained it for ever. In a word, if the Birmingham and Midland interests had once obtained possession of the Oxford and Birmingham district, they would eventually have obtained a direct hold upon the southern and western parts of the country, which would have, to a great extent, para lysed the energies of the Great Western Railway; and thus, whilst the existing traffic of the latter would have been con siderably affected, the power of the Birmingham Company would have amounted almost to a monopoly. "It was upon considerations such as these, more than upon the abstract question of the superiority of a broad or narrow gauge, that the decision of the Committee was come to. Indeed, this abstract question of breadth of gauge is one which the beat engineers are as yet as far from being agreed upon, as in the very infancy of railway enterprise. The practical and scientific evidence which was adduced upon the subject before the Committee, we have given a careful analysis of in another part of our present number. In this paper we speak simply of the general merits of the question, as they appear to have affected the decision of the Colli mate." HUNGERFORD SUSPENSION BRIDGE. (From the Railway .Register.) The Hungerford Bridge is now the ninth structure connecting the two parts of the metropolis on either hank of the Thames—the Vauxhall-bridge being the extreme western, and the Thames Tunnel the extreme eastern of this noble range of public works, unparalleled for their magnificence throughout the world. The fol lowing account is extracted from a paper read by Mr. Cowper before the Royal Institution:— " This bridge is for foot passengers only: it consists of four broad chains, viz., two chains, one above the other, on each side of the platform; each chain consists of ten and eleven links alternately, and near the piers of eleven and twelve. This increased strength is to meet the in creased strain which takes place near the piers. The chain of the Menai bridge is only five links wide, and the chain of the Hammersmith only six links wide ; but the great breadth of the Hungerford chain (viz, eleven links, or about two feet) gives them great power to re sist the effects of the wind, and thus prevent vibration.

The Cork Examiner of Friday contains the following additional particulars respecting this lamentable occurrence, and also the pro. ccedings of the first day of the inquest : " On Thursday, pursuant to arrangement, the inquest on the bodies of the unfortunate peasantry, seven in number, who fell be neath the fire of an armed body of constabulary on the previous Monday evening, took place. In consequence of the number of summonses issued by the coroner, Mr. F. Baldwin, the number of jurors was exceedingly large and respectable, consisting entirely of the gentry of the county for many miles round. The attendance of magistrates was also large. " The Inquest was held in a loft in the mill.house of Mr. Keller, Ballinhassig, close to the spot where the massacre took place. The building was surrounded by crowds of peasantry during the entire day. " After some preliminary arrangements, the coroner, jurors, and medical gentlemen withdrew to view the several bodies ; and, though it was then only 11 o'clock, they did not return before 6 o'clock in the evening. 32 feet. 28 feet. ... 296 sq. in. ... 312 sq. in. " A square inch Of iron breaks with 27 or 29 tons, but 17i tons is taken as the impairing weight, i. e. the weight at which it begins to stretch; we have therefore, for the weight the bridge will actually bear -296 multiplied by 174 tons, equal to 5,180 tons, while 296 multipled by 5 tons, equal to 1,480 tons, is the greatest load that can be put upon it. This is taking a crowd standing close together to be 100 lbs. per square foot. The entire weight of the chain, the plat form, and a full load upon it, would make a load of about 1,000 tons on each pier, being about 8i tons on each square foot of brickwork, or not quite 14 cwt. on each square inch. " The chains are attached to large wrought-iron vertical plates at the summits of the piers; these plates are firmly bolted together, and also to a strong hori zontal plate--the whole forming what is called a saddle. The saddle is not fixed to the pier, but rests on fifty friction rollers, these resting on a thick iron plate, which is supported by a solid mass of iron and timber girders. The pier itself, being pierced with arches, may be con sidered to consist of four columns of brickwork : the girders, therefore, are so arranged, that no weight is thrown on the arches, the whole weight resting on the columns. The saddle is capable of moving eighteen inches each way, equal to three feet entire motion ; so that if either span were crowded, the chains would ad just themselves, and the strain be still perpendicular upon the piers, and have no tendency to pull the pier over. The method of putting up the chains was thus:— Two sets of wire ropes, each consisting of three ropes, were hung from abutment to abutment over the piers, in the exact situation the chains were to occupy,—these scaffold ropes, as they may be called, being distant from each other equal to the length of the connecting pin. A few feet above the scaffold ropes, two other ropes were hung in like manner; on these traversed two light boxes, very much resembling a carpenter's bench turned topsy•turvy. These cradles, as they are called, were connected together, and contained two windlasses, like those over a common well; these cradles held the work men. A barge containing the links was moored under the cradles: four men in the cradles hauled up a link; and when they had raised it above the scaffold ropes, the connecting pin was put through, and the pin being al lowed to rest en the scaffold ropes, of course supported the link. The cradles were then moved forward, and two links joined to the single link, then one joined to the two; the chain consisting thus, in the first instance, of alternately two and one links. When thiirtwo-and one-link was completed, the scaffold ropes were not re quired, the two-and-one-link chain forming, as it were, a scaffold for the rest of the li n k s; an d th us was t hi s bridge erected without any scaffolding but these few ropes, and without the slightest impediment to the navi gation, and without a single accident. The cost was— Mr. Chadwick's contract for brickwork, stone work, and coffer dam £63,000 Sandys, Carne, and Vivian for ironwork 17.000 " It had been previously arranged that the jury were to see the nearest body first, and so on, until the whole seven had been examined, in order that an opportunity might be thus afforded to the relatives and friends of the deceased to inter them as soon as possible. The first hovel before which the cavalcade halted was that of the brother of Julia Callaghan, whose maiden name was Holland. This was about two miles from the scene of slaughter, at a place called Ballingromoota. As we ap proached this miserable habitation the sounds of wild lamentation were heard issuing from the low door, the only aperture, except the chimney, by which air and light were admitted within the dreary walls. A group of men surrounded the door, and in the midst of them we perceived the young husband of the dead woman; and I ►hall not soon forget the desolate crushed-down look of the poor fellow, who did not utter a word, but slow and then gave vent to his grief in a half-sigh, half.groan, that would move the hardest heart. £BO,OOO The money was raised by -3,200 Shares of 251. By Loan £106,000 " The engineer in chief was Mr. Brunel. Tho resi dent engineer, Mr. P. Pritchard Baly." " The jury then proceeded, over a rugged road, to Adamstown, where, in a filthy hovel, not twelve feet square, sunk in a lag, and surrounded by fetid stagnant pools of slime, lay the body of John Desmond. To say that the remains of this unhappy victim pre sented the most awfully hideous and revolting appearance that could be seen by mortal eye, is only to give a faint notion of the reality. It is horrible to think that this hovel was filled during the previous night and during that day by crowds of country people, who must have inhaled, for several hours, an atmosphere litera'ly poisonous —worse than that of the worst charnel-house. We shall not dare to venture on a description; suffice it to say, that it was like a lifting up of the awful veil hiding the mysteries of the grave. " After viewing the other bodies, the coroner and jury returned to Ballinhassig at six o'clock, after a long, melancholy, and pain. ful journey of same sixteen or eighteen miles, and of seven hours' duration. THE WEATHER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. " BALLINIIASAO, HkLP.PAST ONE O'CLOCK.—The Court sat this day at ten o'clock. The magistrates present were—Colonel Burke, Captain Atkins, Lyttleton Leicester, Daniel Connor, J. Moloney, Carew O'Grady, J. Biggs, W. Meade, Captain Roberts, M. Roberts, and R. Knaresborough. " The (coroner having called over the names of the jurors, and they having answered, two of the medical gentlemen, Dr. M'Evers and Dr. Wall, were examined; the testimony of the former was, however, of little importance, he not being present at the conflict. Dr. Wall's examination had not closed at post hour." The Ccn•k Constitution gives a very different account of the affray from that furnished by the other papers which we have seen. It is to the following effect : " The party at the fair consisted of three constables, two acting constables, and thirteen sub-constables, who had been marched in from different stations, and who were under the command of Mr. J. Kelly, first-class sub-inspector of Kinsale, who has been but two months in the district. He was previously stationed in Wexford, and has been in the force for ten years. The business of the fair proceeded as usual up to four o'clock, when symptoms of hostile significance began to be exhibited amongst the country people. There continued, however, a temporary quietness, and Mr. Kelly was enabled to induce the tentowners to level their tents before half-past seven o'clock. The magistrates who attended the fair. Mr. William R. Meade, Ballymartle, Mr. John Molony, Ballinaboy, and Mr. John T. Biggs, Garryhankcrdmore, then retired to Mr. Molony's residence, at about a quarter of a mile distant, to dinner. They were, however, but a short time gone, when the leader of one faction, a man named Sullivan, who is better known by the cognomen of Ranter,' threw up his hat in the green, and, whirling his stick, gave the faction whoop, when his friends and adherents immediately gathered about him tumultuously. The police, however, interfered, and the men of the opposite party, the Neills,' retired from the green. Ranter and his party then left the green and tusk a different road from the Neills. In a few minutes the latter returned to the green to the number of about 200, and a large body of people mounted the ditches around the cross in expectation of a fray. In a moment after Ranter appeared on horseback and rode furiously down the hill, followed by above 300 men. When he got to the middle of the cross he pulled up, and, addressing his own party in Irish, broke a new hat which he wore upon his horse's head. This was the signal for attack; a yell followed from those on the cross, which was answered by another from their opponents on the green. Hearing this yell of defiance, Ranter leaped from his horse, and rushed at the entrance to the green, which was a nar row gap. There he was met by the leader of the Neills, a man named Walsh. He grappled him, and when dragging him into the green constables Pigott and Hannan dashed through the mob, and laid hold of Ranter, who had his coat off at the time. .He struggled for his release, and called upon his faction to rescue him, but the other policemen having come up at the moment, he was lodged in the dispensary. The crowd then surrounded the house, yelling in a hideous manner, and demanding the release of Sullivan, which was of course refused by Mr. Kelly, who told them that it was his duty to convey him before a magistrate. He implored the people to be quiet. There was then a cry of buoileidh, which means Strike them.' The attack commenced, and stones were thrown. The police then got the order to fix bayonets. They did so, but stones fell upon them so fast that they were forced to re treat into the house. When inside, Ranter told them that if they did not release him every one of them would be killed. To this Mr. Kelly replied, that he must do his duty, and that was to keep his prisoner. The windows were now dashed in, and the order was given to prime and load. This was quickly obeyed, but while the police were in the act of doing 'o an attempt was made to force the door, with a cry of Drag them out.' The police attempted to keep the door closed, but it was forced, and one fellow—a very able man—caught the top of it and tried to drag it into the road, so as to expose the inmates to the fury of the mob ; but one of the constables drove his bayonet into the desperado's breast, and he fell back. Three others of the crowd then seized the door and dragged it into the road. The doorway was now defended by constable. Pi gott and Hannan and acting constable Dawson, while the number of stones thrown increased every moment. A cry was raised amongst the mob, and they were exhorted to tear down the house and kill the police. A body of the people then rushed to the back of the house, and with tent sticks began to strip off the roof. The police now perceiving that their lives were in imminent danger, called upon Mr. Kelly to permit them to defend themselves ; but he answered by saying No firing,' and came to the door to implore the people to desist, but before he had uttered many words he re ceived a blow of a large stone on the right side of his face, which drove him back. The roof was now opened, and large stones were thrown into the house, and the police again called upon Mr. Kelly to give them the order to fire, and he then said, Fire, but fire steadily.' Instantly a fellow rushed at the door and threw a large stick at constable Pigott, which struck him on the head; but the stick had no sooner left his hand than he was shot from the window on the right; and, reeling for a short distance, he fell. The mob now became more violent, and dashed forward, yelling hideously, and as they closed in at either side the ringleaders were shot. The police saw that retreat was their only safety, the stones fell so quickly upon theta through the aperture in the roof, and even Ranter's courage left him, for he ran to the windows and implored of his friends' not to murder them, and, while doing so, received several wounds from the stones. The police then determined on retreating, and acting-constable Dawson led; but no sooner had he left the threshold than he re. ceived the blow of a stone on the mouth, which split his upper and lower lips, and knocked out two of his front teeth. He fell, and his carbine was wrested from him by a fellow, who struck Dawson with it on the head while he lay ; but this man paid dearly for his barbarity, for a shot from the window at the same moment stretched him alongside his victim. Dawson again got up, and being separated from his comrades by the crowd which surrounded him, and which had prevented them from leaving the house, stag gered along the road in the direction of Mr. Keller's house. He Was overtaken, and beaten into the ditch. Dr. Stewart J. Tresi. Tian at that moment came up and cried out,' Run, run, here come the Dragoons,' which caused the fellows to fly from their victim. Dawson then got up, and staggered to the house of a Mrs. Oakes, but her son drove him off; and he reeled to the house of a man named Barrett, but the door was shut against him. He stood there for a moment, but, seeing his assailants return ing, he got to the other side of the road and went into the house of a man named Lacy. Lacy closed the door and pushed Dawson into a pigsty at the other end of the house and concealed the aperture. The mob, coming to the door, demanded to have it opened ; but, there being a moment's delay, they drove it in, and searched for Dawson. During the search, Dawson contrived to force himself through a small hole from the pigsty into Mr. Keller's meadow, and crawled through the high grass up to the house, where he was secreted by Mr. Keller's man Ina loft. The mob, finding that Dawson had escaped, wreaked Omr vengeance upon Lacy, by breaking his windows and door, and beating a woman with stones until they left her apparently lifeless. But to return to the scene at the dispensary. At the moment Dawson was sepa. rated from his party, constables Pigott and Hannan followed to try to protect him, but were obliged to retrace their steps, and imme diately after the entire body were compelled to leave the house, it was so dilapidated, and stones were poured into it with such mur. derous determination. The police then left the house, and, forming in a body, charged up the hill, in the hope of gaining the police. station, which was about a mile off. In the confusion attending this movement, the prisoner Sullivan escaped. In the course of their retreat they were met at all points by dense masses of people, yelling and throwing stones, but were fortunate enough to gain the top of the hill alive, though very much bruised. Having got into the station-house, they made predatations to defend themselves against any renewed attack, and were shortly after joined by the magis trates. Mr. Meade, fearing an assault upon the station-house, sent off a special messenger to Cork for a reinforcement. Within two hours from the time the messenger was dispatched, forty police had anti ved from the city, in jingles, under the care of Sub-Inspectors Walker and Green, and head-constables Condon and Moylan, accompanied by Dr. Harris, physician to the con. stabulary. The affray having subsided, D:. Tresilian paid every attention to the wounded, in which he was occupied during the night, assisted by Dr. Harris and Dr. M'Evers. The firing of the police was remarkably accurate, there being thirty-four shots dis charged, every one of which must have taken effect. Thirty. two shots were fired while they defended themselves in the house, and two during the retreat. Each policeman had twenty rounds of ball.cartridge, yet no man fired more than four shots—in fact, the time during which the quick firing continued would not permit of his doing more. It is up to the present moment im. possible to know accurately the number killed or woun d ed, as they have been removed to their abodes for miles round the country. San, —You will oblige a lover of meteorological re search by publishing a few remarks on the weather during the present summer. The principle upon which my conclusions are founded is simply one of comparison, connected with certain an gular distances formed by the planets and our earth, during seasons of peculiar tendency, and upon the in ference that like causes will produce similar results, the following deductions were drawn for the month of June, and published in the Cheltenham papers in May last:— June, to the 10th of the month, will be generally cold for the season, from thence to the 21st the heat would increase considerably, from the 21st to the end of the month considerably colder, and the results are so far cor responding with this judgment. July, from the 2d to the 10th, as the Sun will be in aspect to Mars, the heat will again increase, though not so powerfully as experienced during the interim from the 10th to the 21st of June, from the 10th and during the month seasonable July weather will prevail. August, to the 7th day, will be rather cool for the season, but from the 7th to the 21st will bo the greaten degree of summer heat, when the heat will be of that peculiar burning power so trying to the constitu tion of mankind ; the cause to which I would attribute this intense heat will be the retrograde posture of the planet Mars, forming an angle of 180 degrees with the Sun, when in his nearest position to the earth. Comets are said to increase the heat on their approach to our system, and to produce cold on their recession, but having experienced similar heat to the present season, when comets have not appeared (but not so without the concurring testimony of the planetary orbs), renders conclusions from the former doubtful. September, also, promises fine harvest weather; the months of August ai.d September, as stated in May last in the Cheltenham papers, would be splendid for the harvest, tending to dry and fine weather. On this com parative system it is correct to state the drought of four months' continuance was predicted in April, 1844, to last till the August following, and in June, 1844, the frost for winter 1845 was predicted to be such an one certainly not experienced since the year 1814—the re sult proved these judgments to be correct. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, G. T. F. SMITH. ORANGE PROCESSIONS. DUBLIN, J UL Y s. —The Earl of Rode n h as pu b l i shed the fol lowing address : THE SALT-HILL MURDEH.-CONFESSION OF JOHN TAWELL.—At a very full meeting of the Bucks county magis trates (upwards of 30 being present), held in the magistrates' cham ber, at Aylesbury, on Thursday last, for the transaction of county business, Dr. Lee, one of the justices, inquired of the Chairman, Sir T. D. Aubrey, Bart., if the confession signed by John Tawell, a few hours before his execution, and placed in the hands of the Rev, Mr. Cox, had been given up by the chaplain of the county prison to the magistrates, especially after the general feeling which prevailed on the subject at the late quarter sessions held for the county ? The Chairman having replied that that document was still retained by Mr. Cox; it was then resolved, or the motion of Dr. Lee, that a letter be addressed to the Rev. Mr. Cox, request. ing that he would deliver up the written confession of John Tawell to the magistrates at the next quarter sessions for the county of Bucks. - 611.1.

Brother Protestants,—The let of July is past. The monster meeting which the Repealers threatened to hold on that memorable anniversary on the banks of the Boyne has not' taken place. Hap pily, for the peace of Ulster, we have been saved from that insult. I hear that the Repeaters are now endeavouring to induce our brethren to celebrate the 12th by processions with banners and Hags. It cannot be for our advantage that such advice from them should be followed, much as yott value the events commemorated on that day, much as they should be honoured and regarded by every loyal subject in the land, I would not gratify these wishes, expressed by the Repeaters of Down, Armagh, and Tyrone. I should rather that you quietly met in your respective neighbour hoods, determined to maintain true Protestant principles among yourselves and your children —rejecting alike the insidious snares of a false Protestanism within the Church, and .the errors of Ro. manism, from which we have been happily delivered, under God, through the means of that Prince of glorious and immortal memory, King lA'il iam the Third. " I could not let this opportunity pass without tendering you my opinion as to your proceedings on the approaching Nth. You already . know I can have but one object in doing so, which is your welfare, and consequently the prosperity and happiness of all denominations of our fellow.subjects in Ulster. I have the honour to be, brother Protestants, your faithful friend. " RODEN." DUBLIN STOCK EXCHANGE-SAS URDAY. A favourable change has taken place in the Share-market.

Sarsfield Taylor, A.M., 6v., One Vol, Bvo. A vast deal of writing, good, indifferent, and bad, has been published during some centuries, about the soil, climate, and physical productions of Ireland ; on the customs, habits, and manners of its inhabitants —their religious and political differences—the state of their trade, manufactures, and commerce, in various historical and statistical forms—but we are not aware of any work to convey a clear and full account of the state of intellectual cultivation in that country, previous to the volume now under consider ation. Now, therefore, for the first time, has been produced befure the British people a description of that national establishment, wherein the intellectual power of the Irish people can be developed in its various degrees, called into active existence, and prepared for the various learned professions or to adorn the noble and senatorial ranks of life. To educated persons only can a work of this kind possess any high interest, for the mass of ordinary readers require higher-flavoured dishes in the book way than the history of any University can possibly possess. As very profitable speculations, therefore, such works are rarely brought forward, but when such works afford sufficient proofs that they contain all the genuine facts which are required for public information, which can possibly be obtained, and when such information has been arranged in due chronological order, placed clearly, without any con fusion of terms or ideas, before its readers, then the work is looked upon with favour by the well-informed classes, as one more useful than ornamental, and from their being placed in tke utility class, such works often become standards of reference for future gene rations, long after their gayer contemporaries have sunk into forgetfulness. In the instance before us, it is quite evident that the author has not spared either time, labour, or ex pense, in collecting and arranging the great body of facts which he must have been some years in ac quiring. The work is dedicated. " to the educated classes of Great Britain and Ireland," and is—as the author states—intended to embrace all the topics of interest connected with the only university of Ireland. For besides an account of the foundation, and a narrative of the earlier circumstances of its history—it contains copious biographical sketches of the prelates, states•• men, and other persons, eminent for piety and learn ing, or as poets, historians, and orators—who have been educated within its walls, together with a re gular succession of its provosts (governors) and all the fellows seriatim to the present year—with notices of the benefactions bestowed upon this institution to this time. The volume is also illustrated with coloured en gravings of the academic costumes—and vignette views from drawings made on the spot, in which the architecture and scenery of the college are accurately represented—from these it would appear, that this university is of great extent, and possesses fair claims to architectural elegance. The last, or biographical division of the work af fords good evidence, that much cultivated talent has emanated from this seminary of classical and scientific learning— and has done the Church and State good service in every department, whether diplomatic, ecclesiastical, civil, or military. The author does not pay his court to any party, but rather points out their errors in a plain, intelligible manner; he is evidently most anxious to assist in bringing about a community of interests and gcod feeling between the British and Irish people which, he shows, would only require a sincere determination and honest policy on the part of our Government to accomplish, and he clearly states that the disunion, discontents, and turbulence of the lower orders in Ireland are caused by the bad system of government with which English politicians began to rule that country, and which our Ministries have adopted in succession to the present day, with scarcely any altera tion in the principle, although somewhat modified in the practice. The work altogether gives the best history we have yet seen of Trinity College, and at the present time it will be read with deep interest, fur it points out the existing regulations of that c€lebrated university, and the benefits' which it has conferred on a certain portion of the community, as if to guide the Government to a more comprehensive system of education, which shall not only teach the people well, but hold out academical honours which may distinguish the successful candidates for life. A few extracts will show the vicissitudes to which this seat of learning has been subjected. Cronm ell, it appears, treated it with silent contempt. The beauties of literature and the divine inspirations% of the Greek and lioman poets had no charms for ....i 1ti..., TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Strt,—The July Meeting at Newmarket is generally very select, but few of the great mass forming the " sporting Nc% , rld" attending it, and I think this year, in that particular, will resemble its predecessors. There are only two races which call for my notice, the July Stakes on Tuesday. and the Chesterfield on ThurEday ; for the former seven will be brought to the post, including Smuggler Bill, who has a to lerable chance, and Tit-bit, it being extremely doubtful whether Stockbridge or Buttress start, which, if the latter did, I should have no hesitation of declaring hint the winner.
