AL M EETING of the SOCIETY for the EMAN- T CIPA.TION' of INDUSTRY was held at Exeter Hall on ..43 7 , July 1, ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Esq., in the Chair, ativitich the following resolutious were moved and carried :- 4:...e11e by disappointment at the very unsatisfactory resolutions the y Lord John Russell in the House of Commons on the 43f6 hoofedworld' for the professed purpose of ameliorating the condition og classes of the United Kingdom, and of correcting the t ia ti r i lPing. vil for which his Lordship did not account, that 'while tht. e riche are growing richer, the poor are growing poorer ;"—and tresses -- ting considers. that no professions of sympathy for the dis .ondition of the labouring classes can avail - anything, or be afactor into the country- at- large; so long as - those classes are BatasPelled provide for a heavy taxation on articles of consumption 2 1 ` a Money artificially made scarce—a regulation which confers an undue and unnatural advantage upon capital over industry. Second, —That it is the opinion - of this Society that the state' of actua l destituti on and sufferi under which it is acknowledged the labo w . i „, , t' th - "Is assee hi this kingdom are now so . largely suffering, in 1)e Inidst of su perabundant wealth, and the inexhaustible means of ~r°44clog tdtha wealth, Is not owing to any fault of their own, nor j'-',,allY express ispensation of Providence, but is attributable to ii i': cl° " B legislation, of which the most striking' example is the per - i t ' e,ons currency law of 1819—a measure which Sir• James Graham ril T lY • and e mphatically denounced as a " delusion and a fraud." in hod, — That the, object of the currency law of 1819 and of the actionY measures .of 1844 and 1845 is to reduce the prices of pro to the level of old prices, while the object of eon), 'alvg, and of all • ctive g law% object is Of gold, in order P is - to raise prices above the level to compensate for heavy taxation ; and thus the one i s ~, . i nconsistent with, and'emitdletory to, the other.—That it Lion in of the Legislature, irk levying taxes on commodities, in secure that those taxes should -be paid by the consumers generally ferry of Prices ; but the effect of the monetary measures before re-. tt o „'" , 0 is to prevent a rise of prices, and thus to defeat that inten - . That by these means a grievous wrong is Inflicted on the pro allot,. „, p ~',,,'Lasses, the effects of which are observable in the wide-spread E a n (l 4l --sin described by Sir James Graham as already amounting in ,wiled-.'"ata to full one-tenth of the population, and in the.alarmingde cien:n of the prices of agricultural produce, in consequence of which v t rat a gea e. of the labourer are reduced to their present low and insufli ,-.. n k — That this Society contends that the high scale of indirect r.xation in this country demands a corresponding scale of prices both labour and of the prOduce of labour ; n and and that such scale of prices the ine‘aoPatible with the present low fixed price of gold, which has tl i t at eff eet, not only of throwing upon the producers the burden of taxation which ought to be paid by the consumers, but of perni ?,°Bl3, restricting the circulating medium of the country, by making '' ;Pendent on the quantity.of gold in the Bank of England. e th _ ifill,--- -Tliat if gold were allowed to find its market price in the i o - rcY of the country, like all other commodities, and in obedience ri s e l alv of supply and demand, prices in the home trade would f __ to a r emunerating level, without affecting the prices of our 2reign trade, which are now, and always must be, regulated by the ',.-ustket price of gold. That competition would.prevent home prices t r Oal rising in such a circulating medium beyond the level that indi tet taxation justified ; a level below which it is as unjust to the pro p Gove rn :er as it is dangerous to the public creditor to reduce them.—That e ment money (or Exchequer-bills) now issued for taxes In , shape and in amounts exclusively useful to the monied class, should one issued In amounts convenient for all classes—namely, in notes of ne pound and upwards ; that these notes being necessarily confined rwithin the amount of annual taxation, would be founded on and re present that property which the Government annually draws from People in taxes, and would form the legal-tender money of the Znation.--Theat labour would then receive - its fair and reasonable re orn , th hi t l re the commerce and industry of the country would be freed present unnecessary and injurious dependence upon foreign exchanges. Sixth,—That this Society views with horror the monstrous doe- trine attributed to Sir Robert Peel in the debate on Mr. Vllllers's Motion upon the 10th of June, that the it big impoverishment of the, indu.strious classes is without serernedy • that " great wealth being found side by side with great poverty" I's " inseparable from _lv:gallon, and that civilisation in itself Increases the tendency In , untry towards them,"—a doctrine which would consign a large Portion of our countrymen to irremediable poverty. That this Society_. is prepared to prove before a Conunittee of either House of parliament that such a social anomaly is mainly attributable •to mis 1, n views of the nature and uses of money, and -of the laws governing ing the distribution of wealth ; and they cannot but ascribe it 1 2_ T deepest and most deplorable delusion, that in the recent dis ;sa: t ions on the subject of the Corn-laws and Banking, the National l- O and Taxation, which form esSential elements in bath questions, have been studiously excluded. - ._.B.eventh,—That petitions, representing the substance of the reso t'lletoulis of this meeting, and praying for legislative inquiry into the .„" tof currency on prices, and on the wages of labour, be now p re and signed by the Chairman of die Society, and be presented I, r , t _ ll ,e House of Lords and the House of Commons • and that the rn!visional Committee formed for the- convening . of this meeting be . 9 1 iested kIllbort: to Place the petitions in suitable hands for presentation and ---......._ C AUTION:--HAY-MARING SEASON.

That the necessity of another great trunk railway from London to the manufacturing districts appears to be admitted by the Govern. ment authorities, the Board of Trade, domtnittees of Parliament, and the commercial world generally, and this not only as regards public convenience, but also on the broad ground of public safety; and that shortly this requirement will be greatly increased by the competition of the Irish. Scotch, and northern lines now in progress. It was moved by DANIEL TURTON JOHNSON, Esq., of, ~ldermary Churchyard, seconded by JOHN BURGF,SS, Esq., the Boroughrecve of Manchester, and carried unanimously— That, therefore, It is desirable to establish this independent trunk railway from London to Manchester, which by passinonore directly through the central parts of the kingdom, and at nearly equi-distance from the two great northern lines already in existence, would sup ply the great industrial' population of the north with a shorter, speedier, and more. convenient mode of transit, and would, at the "same time, fUrnish the country towns and agricultural districts in its course with means of communication, in wkich, as compared with other localities possessing railway facilities, they are now lamentably deficient, to their manifest injury.

Omagh with the important city of Armagh, now the centre of all the railways in the north of Ireland. The line will commence at Omagh, and, passing through or near to Ballygawley, Fintona, Clogher, and Augher, Auchnacloy, one of the ; best market towns in the north; Caledon, celebrated for its corn and flour mills ; and Killylea, terminates at Armagh, where it will form a junction with the Ulster Hallway to Belfast, the Inland Line to Dublin, the Newry and Ennis": lien, and also the Armagh, Coie rainc, and Portrush Railways. At Omagh it will connect itself with the Londonderry and Ennis killen station at that town, by meatis of which those two Important plaCes will be brought into the most direct communication with all the cities and towns already mentioned. By this line of railway, the inhabitants of the counties of Tyrone, Mopaghan, Fermanagh, Derry, and Don'gal, will be afforded the most direct and expeditious mode of access to Armagh, Newry, and Belfast ; and as the distance between Omagh and Dublin will be by the dine twenty miles shorter than that proposed by any other com pany now p•ojected, the whole goods and passenger traffic from the north-western and north-midland parts of Ireland in the direction of the. metropolis will pass over this railway. It is almost unnecessary to state that the country to be traversed by this line may, in respect of population, wealth, and enterprise, be put in competition with any other in Ireland. To those acquainted with the county of Tyrone, and the ordinary course of its traffic to Belfast and Newry, it must be obvious that this railway will afford faeilities for the transit of goods and pas sengers, which mast be at once a great accommodation to the public and most remunerative to shareholders; while the resources of the adjacent counties and surrounding districts will be most advan tageously opened up and developed. The entire lengh of the line will be about 35 statute miles, and as there are no engineering difficulties of any importance to be encoun tered, the cost of construction will be under the average; while, front the support which has been vouchsafed by the landed pro prietors along the line, and the spirit with which they have entered into the undertaking, the purchase of the land will be comparatively moderate. The present train?, has been carefully taken by competent persons, whose returns justify the expectation that the Shareholders in the present undertaking will derive at least 8 per cent. interest on their . capital for the present, with every prospect of a progressive increase from the improved traffic which railway communication invariably produces. Every arrangement is in course of preparation for the purpose of bringing this project before Parliament during the next session. Power will be taken to allow Interest at 4 per cent. per annum on the deposits and calls till the line be opened.

EXTRAORDINARY EXHUMATION A discovery of an extratrs'inary nature was made a few days ago in Moor-street, Birmir.ghum, by some tnr n in the employ of Mc. William Smith, surveyor, who were at the time engaged on ths premi,cs at the back of the public office. The occurrstice has supplied food for much curious speculation. The workmen were 4 xcavat in the ground in the yard.for the purpo se o f ma ki ng a well ; and when some four o fiveTfeet heloiv the surface of the-eerth, one of them came in contact with something which he thought to be a stone, but which, on being lifted up with the shovel, proved to be a human head. This naturally made them -more careful in their work. On further examination,' they found the skeleton of, a - large - dog, Whose skin and hair were as perfect as thoegh - ;they had only been buried a week, though -the , body was completely gone. A f..,0t Lelow this-were the remains of a coffin in which the hones of a human being were discovered, to'which the heal first thrown up had belonged.' The bores were at once taken out, and roost - of theM washed, and Dr. Skerritt, Who was passing by at the time, having his attention called thereto, c ,nceived that they were either the bones of a female, or of a youth not more than twenty-five years of age. 'The skull was in tolerably good preserva tion. The teeth on one side were sound, though decayed on; the other side. On the forehead above the left eye there was a round indentation, .as if made by a blew frqm a hammer or other blunt instrument, giving evi dence' all but boncluSive of a deed of murder. The length of. the skeleton was five feet nine or ten inches. The coffin, as the remains testified, was an open one; but decay had worn it down to the thickness of cambric paper. It was fastened. together with oak pins instead of nails, Which had evidently:been dipped in grease or pint (the ancients slot usiug Kyan's patent), as they were not decayed. This would appear to fix the burial as taking place not less than 250. years ago,. as about that time we understand coffin nails came into use. Or the lid of the coffin was found a porcelsin tobacco pipe of 'peculiar construction. It had a heart engraved upon it, with the initials in old English, W. S. The bowl of the pipe was not more than three-eighths of an inch wide. Tie core of.tobacco therein was as fresh as when discovered, as though it had been laid down by some living being who had just been smoking. The discovery of the pipe and tobacco certainly fixes - the date - of the murder less than three centuries ago. A thick stake had evidently been driven through the dog, if not through the cops, as the marks thereof were clear, though the stake oncoming in contact with the air fell to powder. This fitt suggests a scene of no common occurrence. In all;probability, the poor dog, for faithfulness to his mur • deied master, was doomed to die and be buried with him there. A month or six weeks ago, the same indi viduals, when working also for the same surveyor, found some human remains in Oxford:Street, at the back of Mr. •Allday's, the butcher. In that instance every bone wa's broken, the skull was cracked, and the legs were turned upwards on the breast, as though the body had been doubled up. An old-fashioned stone bottle was found between the abdomen and the legs, filled with black 11- Tatar. This relic might have been preserved, but the son of Hibernia, who was , engaged in the work, ex claimed the moment he saw it, "06, there's some of the ra'al crature—here goes for a drop !" and striking it with a shovel to break the neck off, dashed it into innumerable pieces. A Mr. Salmons, who rernem bets the neighbourhood for eighty years, says he re collects that part of the town being a park or plea sure ground of " Lard de Burlington," which ex tended from Moor-street to the river Rea. Tim ber trees of immense size were growing there within his recollection. There is, too, an individual now living, w4ose grandfather superintended the building of Aston Park-wall, who related the following facts to his son, the father of the present relator. They are, therefore, the traditions of two generations:--" Oa the left hand of 'Digbeth was the Duck Pool, or Duck' Bath, be longing to Lord de Burlington, where a beautiful spring arose, that since supplied a great part of the town with water. From its name arose Duckbath,' since corrupted into Digbath or Digbeth.'" Ile says, too, that at the top of Bordesicy was formerly the park keeper's house, for the protection of the deer, where the grazing pasture ended; and thence (not from a corrup tion of ' Dirty•end') arose the name Deer-end,' Deer enaton," Derington,' an I Deritond.' " If this tradi tion be true, the two bodies are connected with some eked of darkness in the baronial ages; but we have heard or another means of accounting for the marvel, which we will lay before our realers as we received it. It is as follows:—" The place where the body and dog were found is supposed to be the part called Loft Croft, ad joining the former park of Lord de Burlington' would seem to record the garden belonging to the house (now the Court of Requests) in which the rich Iltunphrey Jennings lived, who bequeathed an immense property, long subject to litigation. It is supposed that the body found is that of Robert, one of the four sons of the said Humphrey, to whom a large portion of the property war y bequeathed, and of whose death no account has been given; but it was supposed at the time (about the year 1700, ashen he was missing) that he had been made away with. The descendants of the family who now claim the property have found the register of his birth, and his name in the will, but have never been able to obtain any tidings of his death." If the body found in the public-office yard was that of Robert Jennings, the pi p e evidently did not bear his initials.—Birminyhani A votiser. / -•- ~,---.....___ _ , NI r 146r4jug'iDc.:11,,-tiirta/ e an Aural:6oo6d- bk - i ' a --- fif •( • ~t4 , 43 ,t15A .--gst, his MINORITY-NOES, 15.

WARM WEATHER. NICOLL'S REGISTERED PALETOT, 6th and 7th Victoria, cap. 65, twenty paces north of Quadrant, is well adapted over another coat for bad weather or evening wear, and alone during the sunny days without. The Registered Paletot is . prepared, and can only be made by H. J. and D. NIG)LL, 114, Regent-street. The material is the cloth of llama, which, in variety of colour, resembles superfine cloth, but is lighter and softer in texture. Its neat yet not formal cut gives freedom across the chest and shoulders, yet requires no sacrifice 1n personal appearance for the sake of comfort ; indeed, a more graceful bearing to the figure is the result. " In the Registered Paletot there is a gentlemanly neatness, an absence of all unseemly vulgarity. It has met with the highest ap probation in the Court circle."—See the Morning Post, April 19. Price Two Guineas. The Paletot unlined is by Many of our patrons surnamed " The Dnstah," Thirty Shillings. From its elastic softness, it will readily fold into the small compass of the ordinary pocket. Can be sent.:per post, to any part of Great Britain, for eighteen stamps. Being inexpensive, not much grief follows, if, by accident, exchanged in the hall, or left in a railway carriage. Its loss can be supplied in nearly all the principal cities in the United Kingdom. As only respectable firms are appointed agents for the- sale of Nicoll's Registered Paletot, a. caution is, perhaps,, unnecessary,' as being honoured by royal patronage, and its general popularity, there are many who desire to imitate ; such, persons, it is need less t remark, cannot be respectable, but they are warned, that by using the same name only, and though the garment itself may be altogether ditibrent in its construction, yet they are suieject to.the penalty, which will be enforced according to law.
