The government of the canton of Tessino, in Swit zerland, has just addressed the following circular to the commissaries, municipalities, and police agents of the canton : " It results from the official reports which havereached the Council of State that several Austrian deserters have lately arrived on our territory, and that there is reason to fear that others may follow their example. Such a state of things might give rise to serious complications, and be the means of introducing into our country a class of persons who would sootier or later become a charge to the State for want of being able to find an asylum in the neighbouring States. The Council of State in the interest of the tax-payers as well as to fulfil its federal duties, and from considerations of humanity towards the deserters themselves, invites you to use the strictest surveillance and to take the measures necessary to send those deserters back again over the frontiers of Lombardy from which they had arrived. It is important that the municipalities of the howler should not delay the execution of this measure, in case of need, for their promptitude will prevent or alleviate the punishment in curred by the deserters." _ The Government of the Valais, in reply to a letter from the Sardinian Charge d'Affaires is Switzerland relative to the construction of a carriage-road over the Great St. Bernard, has given an assurance that the work in that canton shall be completed by the time those on the Sardinian territory were finished.

Colonel SIBTHOEW gave notice that when the House went into Committee on the Property and Income-tax Eat lie should move amendments to the effect thus tenant Lumen and occupiers of land, as well zs officers in the army and navy, should be exempted from the tax. REPEAL OF THE MALT-TAX. T\lr. PACKE gave notice that when the Hon. Member (Mr. Cayley) brought forward his motion for the repeal of tha matt-tax, he should move an amendment to the effect that half the tax be repealer?. AMENDMENTS ON ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES Lord J RUSSELL said that perhaps it might be con venient if he were to s tate now, agreeably to his pro mise before the recess, the view which the Government took with regard to the amendments which were pro posed to be ifiserled in the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill in Committee, and nior particularly those which had been proposed by the Honourable limber for Midhurst. With respect to the first clause in those amendments, her Majesty's Ministers would have no objection to it in principle, but they thought that it would be carried into effech more compl4,.ly by the terms of the preamble of their own Bill. With regard to the other clauses which the Hon. and Learned Genth-man had given notice of, her Majest . )'s Ministers bad found, after full conthderaticu, that they could not agree in them. With respect to the preamble of the Bill he (the Noble Lord) wished to re serve any opinion until the I; ouse should have gone through the clauses and settled what form the enactment would take. CEYLON. Mr. BAILLIE wiiihed to know, a 3 the Hon. Member for Montrose had expressed some opinions on this sub ject, and had given notice of a motion which might ma terodly affect the state of the question, whether there was any intention on the part of Government to carry the recommendations which had bt en made into effect? Lord J. RUS6ELL said that the recommendations had been so Vague that he had not presumed to act upon th,m, and that he waited fur further advices before he o cou ld express any opinion whatever. PROPERTY AND INCOME TAX. The House then proceeded to the orders of the day, and the motion for the seemid readin g of the Propert and Income-tax Bill having been put, Mr. SPOONER said that he rose to move an amend . ment that this motion should be postponed till this day six menthe. In 1842 Sir B. Peel proposed the imposition of aft lac , i-s.:::-tax becense he found an empty exchequer; but with loaf imposition, to which Parliament had owl _ sertei, there was also a condition annexed—that it ehOulcl not be continued tor more than three years. It ` , z , A P. Lx upon income; tad - that tax was manifestly ircipo.ied Mr a peculiar purpose, 'and for a particular t i'' - ' "• In 1846 the deficiency in the Exche q uer had eel' , supplied, but then came forward the grand financial p .. roje ee s o f Si r R o b ert P ee l. Ile had determined to do `ii`Teca* a? with most of our indirect taxes, and then the i ` P-tax Ras contiuucd for three years. This carried the natter on until 1843, when the aspect of Europe T. such that is was not difficult to ret an Aci` a to carry on tax I ' the fur three years longer. But a time had now arisen in a w ich there wfts no complaint of want in the exchequer, when, in fact, the Chancellor had a surplus, and no necessity . 7aisted tor the continuance of this tax. this tax, because to go into any arguments against nothing e but the greatest emergency co uld justify it. i into Mr. Francis Horner, as far back as 1815 , stigeaati ze it as an unjust tax, and called upon the then CiaN able lorof the Exchequer to abandon while the the bead of the present Lordhimself, who was at Government when this ta x was first introduced, denounced it as not only unequal to in its ope ration, but also li able lead to much fraud and d ece ption. Now that wast c itshetaracter of the tax as g i ve n by those w ho now proposed continuance; and h e put it t o the House whether it was prudent,' elves ov in the exist in g state of agricultu re , to, be could persevere ,z with this measure? If G say was, that t he y would find dmtehnet them did, ell mistaken it they thought it would lead to no oppositi on or resist ance out of doors. .No tax, in fact, was morobuox. great ma ss of the people; and he, therefore, implored the goose mass to sanction its continuance, to the g li e k new i ns t an ces in which persons rather than show their books, and let their affairs be known to the world, had submitted to pay extortionate sums under this tax ; end he was quite sure if the House knew how unequal this iniquitous tax pressed on the people, it would pause hVore it gave its sauction to the second reading the oit- Home B ill. The Right Hon. Baronet the Secretary fur , 6 , 1 ", Department, in a very short, but very power ful * ra n e c '," lo speech, said on a former occasion, if he had the melancholy prospect before him of this becoming a i ,. permanent tax, h e ‘ t , ine h lual s it h y ou; would endeavour, to nish ld bu n t, looking to its probable dura tion,that if its then, thinking inetin o e t t.t. object to it • . ;..ht ou a future occastou resist the tb ey mm effect. Yet the Right Ha,. Gentleman the tax with mere that opinion when he was out (t)il.eltn, wh*ntertained office, now came and asked the House to agree to the v alteratien whatever. Then ag a i n , tax without any who was now an influentij'g'.in, Viscount Howick memberver n ment, Paid to impose a tax of the Go- on property was unjust, obviously on income and and that the income tax shouldhe agreed confined to periods of the greatest p ossibl be e emergency, such as when the country was involve 4 in war or suffering un,uer serious difficulties. That Nob le Lord was high in office, was a clever and able men, and was likAy to adopt an o p inion hastil y , and nhe ot hoped that when this re mark went to the No ble Lord in another place, he would explainhis ;;pinions on taxa tiote. and say bow he came to give his support to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, at a time when the country was involved in no war, and w h en there was a surplus revenue. He next came to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, a nd he must confess that all the Right Hon. Gentleman said made a strong im'presssnn on his mind, and that be hea rd all that came Ir v in hia, with great delight. He said that so far from Ole to pressing exclusively en the rich, it pressed ou the labouring classes, and diminished the means of employment, and that he could not but believe that the Right Hon. Baronet (Sir R. Peel) could think that THE SUN, LONDON, it pressed more exclusively on the rich, be cause if he did why had he not imposed the tax on the people of Ireland? It was a well known fact, which Honourable Gentlemen on the other side would have difficulty in denying, that ever since the year 1819 poverty had been increasing in the country most rapidly, that poor rates were consuming the whole produce of the land, and that farmers could not continue to occupy, even if they had no rent to pay- The Hon. Gentleman opposite, the Under-Secretary for the Colonies, in 1844, was one of the most vehement opposers of the tax, and had made a most decided speech against it.—(Hear.) Had he now altered his opinion? But there was another class to which he wished to call the attention of the House, and that was the tenant farmers of England. No class was more oppressed by this tax than that, and so he told the House years ago, when the tax was first propounded. Tenant farmers were assessed upon an unjust and grossly erroneous basis, and if the tax must be con tinued, it would be nothing but right that some change should be made in this part of it. There were other in equalities in the tax which he could point out, but as they must long ago have becofamiliar tnog so. ThetheHouse me) and the country he should abstain distinction, however, that was made between the land holder and the fund-holder was most unjust and impo litic, inasmuch as the manner in which the tax was levied made the former p a y almost twice as much as the latter. The tax, in a word, was grossly unequal and vexatious; it also held out a premium to commit fraud, and gave rise to a good deal of deception which would be well avoided at the expense of the tax. was the effect of these taxes, and no thi ng possibly ac remedy the evil. Wh a t, th ere f ore , h e T co h u a l t d , in fact, asked of the House was, that they should take all these matters into consideration. The principle had been de clared years ago, when Lord Stanley made his celebrated motion respecting the income-tax, and then it was de clared in terms, though not in words, that at the expiration of the usual time the tax would be remitted. Some attempts had been made to increase the time, but they had to a certain extent signally failed. Nevertheless it was exceedingly desirable that the ex pectations which the public had conceived should be gratified, and that the income-tax should be remitted altogether. Now he was also sure that the re mission of the window duty fora house tax was an un certainty on which they never could rely. When he had Previously brought forward this motion the Noble Lord at the head of the Government had been pleased to say that he would look into the matter. He did not known how the change of circumstances could affect the change of measures. This was no party question, and he would therefore beg to remind his Lord ship that ho had a!ready assented to the necessity of abandoning the duty upon insurances He believed that the tax was part of a system the effect of which would be to undermine the strength and re sources of the country, and on that conviction he should movo that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. MUNTZ seconded the motion. He perfectly concurred in every remark which had fallen from his lion. Friend, because he, like him, was placed in a posi tion to judge of some of the iniquitous and iejarious effects of this tax in the neighbourhood. It made men rob themselves. From the course which the Chan cellor of the Exchequer was taking, he could see no reason to expect an end to the tax, if every little surplus they had was to be frittered away in bricks and windows, and such paltry items. It was nonsense to say that three reductions indemnified tax-pay era for the income-tax. Punch had hit that off better than any one else, when he painted the Chancel lor of the Exchequer as chloroforming John Bull while the Premier robbed, him of the iecome-tax. ►Mr. FRESTIFIELD supported the second reading of the Bill, in the hope that it would be modified in Com , mittee. (LEFT SPEAKING.) THE BRIBERY AT THE LAST FALKIRK ELECTION. On notice being given by Mr. Edward Ellice of his intention to move for a Royal Commission of inquiry into the proceedings at the late election for St. A.ban's, Mr. Cobden gave novice that he would move, as an amend ment, that the Commission be also required to investi gate the proceedings at the late election for the Falkirk District of Burghs. It will perhaps be alleged as an objection to the amendment, that there can be no necessity to inquire into this case, seeing that the par ties who petitioned against the return of Mr. Baird withdrew the petition without bringing it to trial, from want of evidence, apparently, to support the charges it contained. Should some Member of Parliament in his ignorance make such an objection, Mr. Cobden, wete neve, will be able, from preliminary investigations which are at present being made, to show that there is a great reason for inquiry, and that the manner in which the petition was got up and was afterwards withdrawn, is as strong an argument for his motion as any that can be derived from the proceedings during the election, as proving that besides the practices alleged to have been followed at that time, a transaction afterwards took place, from which it would appear that there is some one in the burghs assuming the right to manage their business as it they were his own domain, and as if Mr. Baird were an interloper whom ho alone could have a right to call in question. A London barrister of great experience in election matters spent several days in this town last week, and is now, we be lieve, in one of the other burghs, making minute inquiry into the practices on both aides during the canvass. He is not carrying on his investigations with any view to unseat Mr. Baird, against whose return a second peti- tion cannot be received. His solo purpose, we believe, is to collect for Mr. Cobden and the other Mem bers of Parliament by whom he has been deputed, information which shall show the necessity of giving pro tection to the voter against undue influence. It is said the evidence be has already gathered is of a very de cided character, and implicates both parties. What ever may be the nature of the protection to the voters intended to be proposed by Mr. Cobden, he will, at all events, see from the evidence which will be submitted to him, that it is in vain to look to universal suffrage. He will be informed that the night before the nomina tion of candidates, three hundred of the =enfranchised —the men whom Feargus O'Conn.or delights to honour, who have cheered his democratic sentiments to the echo, and who, like that disinterested patriot, are pre pared to die for their rights—allowed themselves to be put in a state of brutal intoxication, and bartered their vaunted integrity for a few gills of whisky. Some of them, too drunk for the purpose for which they were intended, were carried from the scene of dissipation in carts, which were literally emptied of their centents in the open fields. It has been jocularly said, that the opening of the publitehouses to these men was an experiment for the purpose of ascertaining with what effect the system of treating could be carried on under a more extended franchise; and it must be acknowledged, that it fully showed that an extension of the electoral privilege, without efficient protection to the voter, would be a moral and social curse bath to the individuals so admitted to the right of voting and to the community of which they form a part. —Falkirk Herald. MURDER - NEAR TRURO. (From tae Devonport Independent ) It has happily been some time since the frightful crime of murder bee been perpetrated in Cornwall; but we are sorry that we have again to add to the catalogue of heinous guilt, a murder committed in this county on Saturday last. The locality where the deed was per petrated is called Siivervvelle near the Chiverton Arms, on the road between Truro and St. Agnes, and about five miles from the former place. The murdered man, William Kendall, occupied a small farm, and lived in the house with his wife alone. This was his second wife, to whom he had been niarriid about four years. Her former name was Teague, and she had a son by her first husband, called Elijah Teague, and now about 17 years of age. This son lived with his mother and Mr. Kendall until January last, when he went to lodge at a neighbouring house with Henry Grose; but he still occasionally worked on the farm for his father-in-law, who was about 72 years of age. His father-in-law had on Saturday last ridden to Chacewater; and the young man was on that day working on the farm, employed in threshing and boiling turnips. His father-in-law was never more seen alive; but was disco vered on Sunday morning dead in his own house, sitting on a chair in the parlour. There was a large wound over the centre of his forehead, of an irregular oval figure, two inchss and a half in length and two inches in width. The mortal blows appeared to have been given with dreadful force; the bones were broken in, and the surgeon who was called, inserted his finger on the right side to the depth of nearly an inch. Sixty-one pieces of bone were extracted, and the fissures were driven an inch and a quarter below the surface of the skull. A hammer was found on the garden hedge, and this hammer fitted into the wound in the man's forehead. A white hair was found attached to the end of the hammer, and the surgeon, on a micros copical examination, believes it to be a human hair, and that in all probability it was torn from the deceased's eyebrow. An inquest has been held on the body, before hla John Carlyon, county coroner. The inquiry core menced on Monday at eleven o'clock, was continued on Tuesday, and did not terminate until late on Tuesday aerht The result was, un that a verdict of 1 ° wilful mur hio been w a was committed " was warralt, ange'le has' ea returned against the deceased's son-in-law, apprehended to t u h n e d eerotoheety gaol a coroner's h Bodmin, to taketrial at the next assizes. The evidence on which the jury grounded their ver s tan ti al. The seta-lan-air character, and wholly circum as well as other witnessaews was examined at the inquest, who had returned.fr He states that he found de ceased,yards from his own house, m Chacewater, about eighty ble, with a large wound in ng on the ground insensi his horse; that he then lifted usl;aused by a kick from his own house, his heels dragging on i t. and carried him into the ground. There do not appear, however to be any marks of the body having been thus dragged over the ground. Deceased'a was absent at this time, having gone to Henry Gross's (Elijah Teague's lodgings). On her returning and ask ingses for her husband, Teague said he was in the par_ llow her togo in, lour, but he would not a sayin g the and it would horse had " thrown' to him,. hurry h er. She did not go , in but went went back to Grose's who called one or two nighbo urs , and with them and his wife preceeded to deceased's dwelling When they got there t h ey found de ceased's wife wanking up and down before the house, she having left Grose's house in the interim, and gone there. The neighbours foetid the door locked, and could not find the key where it was usually placed when no one was at home. As thecould deceased's wife y not get in,proposed that the door should be lifted from its hinges, bat this the not, " done, and etrange to say, no entry was m ade into eniCia until the next morning, when the old man Was found d ead in the parlour as before described. The sur geon, Mr. Moyle, does not conceive the wound in deceesed's forehead could have beau eausad.by the kick of a horse, as stated by Elijah Teague, but that the injury was in flicted by two or more blows from some heavy instru ment. Another circumstance was the fact of Elijah Teague having been about three hours absent from home to call a surgeon (according to his own statement), and an explanation of which he was called on to give in his evidence. He also pointed out five spots of blood at the place where he says he found deceased's body before he took it into the house; but the surgeon gives his opinion that the spots are not blood that had flowed from a re cent wound. The prisoner's own statement of the circumstance having been beard, and the evidence of the surgeon, Mr. Moyle, as well us that of Mary Grose, Henry Grose, and Ed ward Mitchell, of Tregavethan, the jury, at the adjourned inquest held on Tuesday, returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against Elijah Teague," who was committed to the next assize for trial. There does not appear in the evidence anything to show a motive for the committal of the act, but it is stated in the neighbourhood that there were frequent disagreements between the deceased and his son-in-law. THE LATE MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT WALTON. (From the Carlisle Patriot of Saturday.) Both the principal parties concerned in this lament able tragedy have long been held in high esteem by all who knew them. _ _ The Rev. Joseph Smith is Incumbent of Walton, with an income of 1301. a year and a parsonage house. Though the means derived from his cure were so limited, he did a great deal of good in the locality ; in fact he dispensed in charity a large portion of his income. His chief personal characteristics were excessive ner vousness and timidity. He sensitively shrank from giving pain to any living creature; and yet this very nervousness and timidity seem to have placed him under circumstances in which he deprived of life an individual whom it is believed he never saw, and against whom, certainly, he entertained not the slightest feeling of enmity. Yesterday the jury and witnesses again assembled to sign the depositions and complete the necessary forms. The magistrates were, we believe, again in attendance, and found Mr. Smith labouring under great mental suf fering; and we are uncertain whether or not they were enabled to read over the depositions to him. The case is now in their hands, and there is no doubt but they will admit him to bail, if indeed the necessary forms have not already been completed. The remains of the unfortunate deceased were in terred, on Tuesday last, in Ettleton Cnurcnyard, near Newcastleton, and friends and acquaintances from far and near flocked to the spot to pay the last sad tri bute of respect to the memory of a man who was the pride of the district, and beloved and respected wherever be was known. A correspondent who witnessed the funeral says—" The procession presented a very im posing spectacle. In some parts of the road along which it passed it appeared as if it extended for nearly a quarter of a mile. It is doubtful if ever so large an attendance was before seen at any funeral in :he parish. Many came from a great distance—for poor Sorbietreee' was known far and wide—and many more would have been present, but this being the lambing season, the shepherds could not leave their flocks. Grief was depicted in every face, and every man seemed to teel the loss as a personal bereavement. There is wail ing and lamentation throughout the whole district." The deceased, who was a keen sportsman, was to have met " the Duke's" hounds on " Canobie Lee" on the Thursday morning—the day A fter his death; and it was to enable him to keep this engagement that he declined to stay all night at Brampton, as he bad been pressed to do by several friends. At the " meet" in the morning his well-known face, cheerful voice, and hearty laugh were soon misted—for wherever he went he was the " observed of all observers;" and the common expres sion on every tongue was—" God's sake, what's gotten orbietreeo' Mr. Armstrong was the representative of a long line of ancestors, famous in their day as chiefs and leaders in the border warfare. He was considered one of the handsomest men in Lidlesdale, and the surgeons who made the post mortem examination describe him as one of the finest formed men they had ever seen. He was a fast friend and a kind neighbour—ever trying to do goo to all who had ever come under his notice. It was this strong feeling of regard for all who had ever lived under his roof that cost him his life; for there is no doubt, from what he said to his wife and others, that the object of his calling at Walton Parsonage was for the purpose of offering to re-engage the witness Glen dinning, who had lived several years with his father and himself, as a servant. STATE OF TRADE. BIRMINGHAM, SATURDAY.—lnquiries during the pre sent week in the neighbourhood of Dudley have con firmed conclusions previously expressed as to the unsatis factory state of the iron trade; and advices received by the last packets from the United States give little en couragement to the exportation of the raw material from these districts. The proprietors of some of the most ex tensive establishments state that the demand for iron is comparatively small, and, as is known (from the rates fixed upon at the last quarter-day), prices are barely re munerative; in some instances they are ruinously under the mark. But although prospects are so cheerless, fur naces for the most part remain in blast, and, so far as we could judge from a cursory ♦iew of the most densely populated parts of the iron districts, there did not appear to be any observable or material cessation of employ ment; but how matters are to improve without a reduc tion of make is a problem yet to be solved. The decreased demand for British iron in North Ame rica owing to the repletion of the market is not the only drpressing circumstance in connexion with the manu facturing interests of this neighbourhood and their trans atlantic commerce. Within these few weeks locks, bolts, and other door fittings, the make of which has hitherto been confined chiefly to Willenball, Darlaston, and other contiguous localities, have been introduced amongst the factors of Birmingham and Wol verhampton, as of American make. Samples of cham ber bolts have been exhibited which Staffordshire ma nufacturers assert are offered; one-third cheaper than they could afford to make them. It is somewhat singu lar, however, that while this kind of iron ware is im ported at such low prices from the United States, the exports to America of other descriptions of manufac tured metal goods remain unabated. Amongst other branches of Birmingham trade at pre sent particularly active may be mentioned that of steel toys. The name does not truly denominate the manu facture. Steel toys consist of chisels, pincers, and other iron and steel implements of a like description. The make is now unusually large, and the demand for Shef field files so great that the factors experience great dif ficulty in obtaining the execution of their orders. The steel•pen trade, now carried on in Birmingham to an immense extent, continues its career of prosperity. Mr. Gillott, the eminent manufacturer, has considerably en larged his establishment; and Mr. Mitchell and other pen-makers of repute are in full work. The electro-plate trade is also thriving. Although a comparatively late discovery, electre-plate, like plate glass, has already become of every-day domestic use, and finds employ ment in its manufacture for no inconsiderable number of our industrial population. The Messrs. Elkington's works in Newhall-street are busily occupied, a large pro portion of their productions being for exportation. Amongst the most splendid specimens of this modern discovery exhibited in the Crystal Palace will be found the productions of Messrs. Elkington. The copper trade is brisk. The demand for the lamp manufacture and all description of tubing at the present time is unusually large; so much so, that some of the first houses are almost run out of stock, and prices, con sequently, remain high. Locomotive tubing carries off an immense quantity of copper, and is now in great re quest. The brass foundry business remains steady, and, notwithstanding continental competition, large quantities of brass manufactured goods continue to be exported. Some of our factors speak unfavourably of the state of the home trade with regard to the demand for Birming ham manufactures; but, generally speaking, there are fewer complaints than gratulations. MANCHESTER, SATURDAY.—There is no little difficulty at the present moment in arriving at a correct view of the position in which the market stands, so much un steadiness pervades it; and to-day it has had more of an uncertain character than during the last month. On every hand loud complaints are uttered by producers that they are offered prices which they cannot accept, because they have a reference to what the raw material is expected to fetch instead of its present cost; and that, unless they close with these low-priced offers when made, they are not usually repeated unless accompanied by a demand for further concession. Still it is remarkable that we cannot hear of any accumulation of stocks ; pro ducers express a decided repugnance to commence run ning short time, and there is an increase of 700 bales in the average consumption per week (as shown by the de mand on Liverpool) compared with the same period last year, trade there being in a fair state. With such facts to be remembered, we are bound to repeat that the causes which brought about what may be termed the mo mentary panic of to-day are not to be stated. Want of confidence, which has hitherto been manifested solely in respect to the continuance of the raw material at its present high price, is now manifested with respect to the credit of certain parties; and the fact that one Greek house has stopped, that some other small manufacturing firms have failed, and that others are understood to be asking for time, has led to rumqurs which we believe to be exaggerated. The firms that are gone do not, is th e aggregate, represent any very serious amount of loss, and would scarcely have been noticed at another time. With a different state of feeling as to the circumstances we have last named, it is not improbable that a larg e business would be done on speculation, for India espe. cially, as the latest accounts received thence warrant the belief that extensive orders must be transmitted soon, possibly by the next mail. Some of the shipping houses seem to be of this opinion, for we understand that large offers were made in the course of Thursday afternoon; and we hear of houses that have given out orders much more considerable than any before this year, though still below those which they gave last year at this time. The demand for home languishes, and does not come up to that of last year.

Every one has heard of the convincing argument used by the Emperor Vespasian in defence of a certain item of taxation which formed part of the Imperial Budget. Drawing forth a piece of coin which had formed part of the contribution drawn from the obnoxious impost, he placed it, under the nose of the remonstrant, and with the remark, non olet mi flius, returned it to his purse, and Titus no doubt was convinced, for we hear no more of his expostulations. Mr. Richard Dover is cer tainly the Vespasian of our day, for he proposes to draw a revenue of somewhere about 3,000,000/. per annum from those great sinks of impurity and filth which as yet have produced nothing but infection and disease—the sewers. If Mr. Dover should succeed in his plan, and carry out the promises which he makes we doubt not that he will find the public of the present day less scrupulous than was the Emperor's son, and perfectly ready to con cur with him in any undertaking which will not only remove an evil of the greatest magnitude, but convert it into a source of profit and revenue. On Saturday last we were witnesses of some experi ments which that gentleman made, on a large scale, on some sewage water from the great Essex-street sewer. The scene of his operations was an open space of ground on the banks of the river, directly over the sewer which discharges itself into the Thames at the bottom of Essex street; and into this grand canal of filth and abomina tions be had inserted a pipe, through which, by means of a force pump, he drew off into a large tank some gal lons of dark, filthy, rank-smelling sewage water, which in a few minutes more would have been precipitated into " Father Thames," and formed a part of the giant river so often apostrophised by poets and orators as waving the shores of the Queen of Cities. In this tank Mr. Dover had already placed a portion of the chemical preparation which is the main point of his discovery, and in a very short time the water which we ourselves had seen pumped into the tank dirty and of an almost overpowering odour, emerged through a tap at the opposite side as pure to the sight almost as a mountain brook, without the slightest offensive smell, and which, ou being further passed through a common filterer, tasted not at all unlike a compound of Harrogate and Cheltenham waters. The result of this part of the experiment enacted before our own eyes was sufficiently satisfactory, and if Mr. Dover had no other object in view than that of rendering our river the pure and silvery stream which it was in ancient days, we should have no hesitation in pronouncing him a public benefactor, and a more efficient conser , , , of of th e Thatues than all the Lord Mayors who ever floated over it in a gilded barge. But the best part of the plan remains behind, and Mr. Dover does not let the sewage get off so easily. The che mical agent used by that gentleman to purify and deodonze the stream of filth, acts, by fixing and precipitating all those matters which emit noxious smells and poisonous gases, which at the same time are of the utmost value for agricultural purposes. A reeidium of these is thus left. at the the bottom of the task, which, by a drying pro cess, is converted into a dark coloured sandy substance, to which Mr. Dover has most appropriately given the name of British guano; a large quantity of this was submitted to our inspection, and on putting it to the usual test of foreign guano, that of rubbing it between the hinds, we found it did not discolour them. The practical experi • meats which have been tried with this British guano in agriculture have been most successful, and we are in formed that in the growing of turnips it has been found of the greatest va l ue. Tnis Mr. Dover calculates could be sold to the farther, with a fair profit to the manufacturer, at 51. per ton; and as this is not one half of the present market price of foreign guano, it becomes a serious question whether an extensive manufacture of this article would not really be a stqa in the right direction towards the alleviation of agricultural distress; particularly if the declaration made by a Noble Duke be correct, that with guano at 51. per ton, the British farmer would grow wheat to a profit at five shillings per bushel. Mr. Dover proposes to erect works, of which the cost would be slight when compared with other projects which have been submitted to the public on the sewage question, at the exit of each sewer, and under his management, the dirty puddle of a Thames which flows through the metropolis would become a clear limpid stream, no longer the bearer of poisonous odours and deadly infection—an im portant point in the great sanitary question would he satisfactorily settled for ever, and the tons of agricul tural manure which each day are rolled uselessly on to the ocean, would be arrested, and made the means of increased fertility to our lands, and increased surplus in our revenue. The remuneration which Mr. Dover asks from Go vernment for his discovery is so moderate, as to re flect discredit on them should they refuse to give him at least the advantage of a fair trial. They have before them a simple, efficacious plan for promoting, nay, en suring we mLht say, the sanitary wk hare of the metro polis, a cause in which they have been for some time boasting of their great zeal and anxiety, and with them rests the responsibility if they neglect to take advantage of the result of Mr. Dover's long experience and un wearied efforts. We understand that the experiment is to be repeated in a short time, and we shall then have much pleasure in announcing any new facts which may be elicited on a subject which must be of the greatest importance to every member of the community. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, April 26. (Sittings in Banco, at Westminster, before Mr. Jus tice PATTESON, Mr. Justice WIOUTMA.I4, and Mr. Justice ERLE.) THE QUEEIi V. BESSELL. This was a conviction under the Copyright of Designs Act. An invention for ventilating rooms had been registered. One pane in the highest row of a window was to have only half the usual quantity of glass, and was to be inserted at an angle, and this was to be managed by a screw at the bottom of the window frame, so that the air could be admitted. The claim was the general configuration and combi nation of the parts for the purpose designed. The window pane was an oblong of a square. The in fringement was this,—that everything was similar, except that the window pane, an oblong, was longer and narrower. The present rule was to quash the conviction. Mr. Hindmarsh and Mr. Locke supported the conviction, and Mr. Webster and Mr. Hunter con tended that the conviction ou g ht to be quash e d, as it did not come within the Designs Act. The COURT thought the very plan of the invention, as stated by the inventor, was suicidal. The inventor had disclaimed the window-frame, the pine of glass, and the screw. There was no new configuration.— Conviction quashed. THE QUEEN ON THE PROSECUTION OF WHISTON, CLERK P. THE DEAN AND CHAPTER OF ROCHEaTER. Sir F. KELLY said this was a demurrer to certain pleas pleaded to a return to a mandamus, the manda mus being to restore a gentleman of the name of Whiston to the office of head master of the Grammar School, at Rochester. The mandamus stated that Mr. Whiston was nominated head master of the school, and had always conducted himself properly ; but that the dean and chapter had dismissed him. The return, after stating the foundation of the school, went on to say that Mr. Whiston had been elected head master, and that he had been removed from his office for lawful cause, and had not appealed to the Bishop of Rochester, who was the visitor of the school. To that return the prosecutor had pleaded three pleas ; Ist, that the return was not suf cient, that the cause for which he had been removed was not a lawful cause ; 2d, that as to so much of the return which stated that he had not ap pealed to the bishop, he had pleaded in the next plea that the cause of the removal was alleged to be the writing a pamphlet ; that the words of the pamphlet were written of and concerning the bishop, and that several passages of the pamphlet were written with the intention of making public what had been done with regard to the school, and that he was not bound by the statute to appeal to the bishop. Thirdly, that Mr. Whiston was elected in 1842, under letters patent, to be head master of the school; that he had properly conducted himself, and was not unfit for the situation; that he had required an augmentation for some of the scholars ; that he had published a pamphlet on cathedral trusts ; that the pamphlet was for the public benefit ; that in 1849 the dean and chapter had resolved that he should be removed, and that there was no other cause for the removal than the pamphlet. To this plea in bar there were special demurrers. The Learned Counsel ap peared on behalf of the defendants, and submitted that the Bishop of Rochester was visitor of the school, to whom, and to whom alone, the appeal lay against the sentence of the dean and chapter dismis sing Mr. Whiston from his office ; and that upon principle, as well as upon established authority, there was no concurrent or other jurisdiction, but that where under statute in a case of this nature upon any act in the nature of a dismissal being done by a body like the dean and chapter, and in respect of an office of this character, if the per son dismissed supposed he had cause of complaint, he must appeal to the visitor, and to the visitor alone ; and although this Court would interpose if, upon an appeal being made to a visitor the visitor should refuse to hear or entertain it, and the visitor might thus be compelled to do justice, yet until that appeal had been made, no mandamus would lie, and it was not competent for this Court to entertain the question, which belonged to the visitor alone. Sir F. TRESIGER, on behalf of Mr. Whiston, con tended that, although in ordinary cases an appeal would be to the visitor, yet in the present instance the Bishop of Rochester was so much interested, that to appeal to him would be making him a judge of his own cause. There were passages in the pamphlet reflecting in very strong terms upon the conduct of the Bishop of Rochester. They imputed to him a knowledge of the diversion of the funds of the school from their proper object, so that, as he had before said, to appeal to the bishop would be to appeal to a party who was himself charged with having a know ledge of that which was said to be improper conduct. In the midst of the argument of the Learned Counsel the Court rose, and the further hearing was postponed. LUNATICS (SCOTLAND). —The total number of pauper lunatics in Scotland on the first day of the present year was, according to a return just published, 3,36 ?, and th• total annual cost for their maintenance WAS 44,0231. ls. 3d., making the ayerago cost per head 131. 103. 100. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET. The report of the directors, to be submitted to the shareholders at the half-yearly meeting on Wed nesday, states that on assuming the management of the affairs of the company the directors found the railway closed ; and in addition to the absence of any revenue, the company was incurring the re sponsibility of interest on debentures to the extent of about 5,0001. per annum. The full action of the present board has not been in force for much more than six months. The fisrt object of the directors was to re-open the line, which they did in September last; and notwithstanding all the disadvantages of the tem porary suspension of railway communication in the dis trict up to the present time the revenue, as compared with the corresponding period of the previous year, has considerably increased, while the expenses have di minished. The directors attribute these results to the zeal and economy of Mr. Brown, who, in addition to his duties as secretary, has been acting as manager at New market. Mr. Jackson, by far the largest debenture holder, took the lead in liberal arrangements, which were with equal cordiality acceded to by oihers, and the result has been that of the total number• of debentures issued by the company, amounting to 107,0001., chi. fly bearing interest at the rate of 5 per cent, per annum, 102,5001. are now chargeable at 3} per cent., so that only 4,5001. remain at 5 per cent. Mr. Jackson has consented to renew his debentures as they fall due, for a further period of five years. An agreement was en tered into with Mr. Jackson by which he cancelled his former contract for the completion of the works, on such terms as will prove a saving to the company of at least 25,0001.—an important feature of the agreement being that Mr. Jackson has entered into a contract to com plete the line to Cambridge for a min not exceedieg 9,9001., on being furbished with a certain quantity of rails and sleepers. In order to meet the engagements of the company, and to provide for the completion of the line to Cambridge, the directors foresaw that it would be necessary to make the last call of 21. per share; but, before doing se, they resolved in justice to those share holders who had regularly paid up their calls, to endea vour to enforce the payment of all cane in arrear, and the result was that of above 5,000 shares in arrear when the bite directors resigned, the holders of more than 3,500 have paid up their calls, leaving only about 1.500 shares which were absolutely forfeited in February last. The report then refers to the agreement entered into with the Eastern Counties Railway for working the line, of which the following is an abstract:—" The basis of the agreement, fu►ly concluded, consists of the tree use of the Cambridge and Chesterford stations, with the ne cessary staff of clerks and porters; the supply of roll ing stock at cost price; the gross earnings (less 40 per cent. for working) on all the traffic brought by this rail way to the Cambridge station, and conveyed along the Feteb , rn Counties line from Cambridge to Chesterford, and Cambridge to Ely ; a contribution of 5,0001. per an num, if le quired, to make up a dividend of 3p• r cent. on the capital of the company of 350,0001." Some fur ther concessions of minor importance having been made, it was lastly agreed that the Eastern Counties Company should have the right of purchasing the Newmarket line, and assuming all its liabilities, on a satisaictory guarentee of a 3 per cent. annual dividend on a payment of 151. for every 251. share. These advatiteees end the participation of the profit of the traffic from Cambridge to Chesterford, and from Cambridge t t El, and the contribution of 5.000/ a year (which is in itself within a fraction of 1 per cent, on the capitel of 350,0001.), leave no doubt in the minds of the dire c• tors that a dividend of 3 i.er cent. is secured on the capital stock of the company as soon as the line to Cambridge is completed, when a large increase of traffic must necessarily take place. The object of the directors is now to complete the line to Cambridge with the utmost speed possible. The works wilt be imme diately proceeded with, and will not require more than eight or ten weeks for completion. Atter having dis cbarged every claim upon the company of whin the directors are cognizent, they have disposable funds at their command amply sufficient to enable them to com plete the lice. Tao directors confidently look for an ap proval of the result of their labours, and that the share holders will confirm the agreement which they have pro visionally entered into with the Eastern Counties Com pany, which is, in their opinion, highly conducive to the best interests of the Newmarket Huilway. THE EXECUTION A!: r KIRKDALE. LIVERPOOL, APRIL 26.—Patric k Lyons, wet) with bis witty was at the last assizes sente seed to be hanged for the murder of Peggy Fehey at Warrington, expiated his offence on the 8 cAY,Id at Kirk dale G:ol to-day. Since his condemnation Lyons has paid the most de vout attention to his religious duties, expressing the utmost contrition for his crime, arid being quite resigned and prepared to meet his fate. On Thursday he had an interview with his sister. The pay ling scene was very affecting, but nothing material pass ed between them. On the following day he took a last fru - ewell of his wife, and intimated his intention to declart t her innocence on the scaffold. By twelve o'clock a ler %ge crowd was assem• bled to see the execution, but n, it so large by several thousands as on the occasion of Gleeson Wilson's exe cution. Lyons had been engaged in devotional prepa ration in the interior of the p into'. Pausing coca sionelly, he paced up and down th t) room, and more than once expressed impatience at whit t appeared to him the unnecessary delay in carrying oat the sentence of the law. He did cot betray the a lightest apprehension regarding his approaching en d. When Calcraft (who arrived in Liverpool: ar Friday afternoon) entered the room the criminal saluted him with a familiar nod, accompanied by a, peculiar smile. He submitted to the operation of pinti ming with the same fortitude which had characterised his previous conduct. , On the way be nodded to several , the turnkeys, cheer. fully bade them a final adieu at " God bless them." He carried in his hand a small b, eok, which was given to him at his own request, and a 4 :ruci x. At the toot of the gallows he knelt down a ed repeated after the priest. " Father, into thy hands [ commend my spirit; Lord Jesus, receive my soul." In emedietely on mount ing the scaffold he turned quickly .round and looked up at the beam, from which the small! chain to which the noose is attached was suspended. ITo eyed it for a few seconds, and again facing the come tune of people he bowed twice or thrice. As Calcraft was about to draw the cap over the eyes of the criminal I he intimated that he wished to address the people. ETe spoke distinctly, sometimes pausing, as it were, to ete collect what he had intended to say. His address ran as follows:—" My dear brethren,—l'm sorry for what .1 have done, and I confess to the Almighty God, and all here today, I firmly believe I am guilty of this mei rder; and I firmly believe my poor wife is innocent, as it inocent as a child. Lord have mercy upon her! Here is the band that has done the murder; here is the body el tat has committed the sin. (A pause.) Thank God tls at I am willing to suffer; but my suffering is nothing. I am willing to nail my hand to the tree; I am willin g to drag me be tween four horses; lam willing to p it me in the fire and burn to ashes—fur the sake of ix, y soul, because I knew I was doing wrong; I knew the ,t I had committed a sin. And, my dear brethren, Vi hat must be the cause of this? I neglected my mass ; I neglected God; I neglected my prayers morning and evening, and, only tee I did this, I would not be ag here to-day for such a guilty crime. My dear Chris ti lane, let this be a earning for ye, and learn to be wie this world. I hope in my Saviour Jesus Christ for s alvation, and the Blessed Virgin to pray for me, and ri i I god Christians. (Another peutie.) I expect you will p ray for me to-day, and I Cruet in God he will listen to in e, and the Hety Virgin Mary, and the angels in hea Seen. Pray for me this day. My dear Christians, learn to be wise in this world. We are here to-day and gone to-morrow. ( The criminal a-gain paused.) The g eutlemen of this place a ere very kind to me, especially the governor. I am very mush oblige d to him, and I thank him for hie kindness. My pier wife lies in bert e and grieves very much about this. May the Lord deli rer her from gaol." Here there was a pause, end the d teomed man seemed to intimate to Celcreft that he had ti t isted what he had to say, and in another moment he ;was launched into eternity. The greater portion of th i i crowd then dis persed. After hanging the usual Limo the biddy was cut down and buried in toe gaol. We learn that. during the moraine, , Bridget Lyons, the wife, remained in prayer in her eel t. She was much affected when informed that the expo sution had taken place, and that her husband had excites rated her. MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 28, 1851. SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM. Mr. R. Score . , the chairman of the Committee of Shareholders appointed on the 12th of February last to reopen negotiations with the London and North- Western Company, has eddreesed a letter to the share holders in reference to ttie arrangement proposed by the Great Western Company ior leasing the line, in which he states that, upon a careful ieveetieation, that com mittee found that, from Vise opening • f the line, the affairs had been so mismanaged that the proprietors could have little hope of a diver: nd except tbrought a frieudly ar rangement with the London and North- Western Com. parry, and the withdrawal of that reckless competition which involved a heavy loss upon great part of their traffic. On the 12th of March the proprietors approved of the proceedings of the committee, acrd of the arrange ment then submitted for consideration. At their subse quent meetings they confirmed that arrangement by very large majorities. After having thus, by rE peated reso lutions, entered into and finally and formally concluded an agreement, they are now asked by Mr. Gore and his party to rescind their resolutions, forfeit their pledges, and break a solemn compact entered into in obedience to their orders, and confirmed by them in general assembly, after the fullest discussion, and notwithstanding the most virulent and unjustifiable opposition recorded in railway annals. Before coming to any determination in refer ence to the resolutions so lately passed, he requests their serious consideration of the terms offered by the Great Western Company. For the first four years the terms offered under both arrangements are nearly equal though there will he a balance of 1 per cella in favour of the London and North-Western agreement if the trial year be postponed to the fifth year. He states that the minimum capital of the three companies which it is proposed to unite by the contemplated amalgation with the Great Western, amounts to 19,992,700/ e with an annual charge of 859,9501., including 4 per cent. on the ordinary capital, me preference charges of each couspant, and the interest on loans ; the Shrewsbury and Birmingham capite.l being 1 156,7001., annual charge 51,8851; the Shrewsbury and Chester, capital 1,421,0001., annual charge 65,840/ ; and the Great Western capital 17,415,0001., with an annual charge of 742,2251.; showite7 that to pay a dividend of 41. per cent. on the ordinary share capital of the amalg-in .ted com panies, it will require a ne't receipt of 859 9501. p , r annum; or, ihclus!ve of working expanses, a traffic of 1.456.0001. per annum. The Shrewsbury and Chester and Shrewsbury and Birmingham companies have not hitherto earned any divide, d on their orriinary share capital, and the Greet Western dizidend is but at the rate of 4 per cent. on 8 072.0001.,E qual to only 323 0001. per annum., notwithstanding that the revenue of bat company is now relieved by charging interest to capital to the amount of at lea,t 1.50,0001. per annum. Before the Great Western can unite tnemselves to the line, they must raise upwards of three millions of :man to pay for and complete the lines from Oxford, vi 4 Birmingham, to Wolverhampton, besides their other liabilities And to all these engagements the Shrewsbury and Birming ham line and capital will be pledged under the proposed amalgamation; so that, from being the line with the smallest debt, they would become the line with the largest debt, compared with the capital, in the kingdom. After adverting to the effect of a reduction of fares on the Great Western Railway as a con sideration for obtaining their Birmingham and Stafferd shire lines, he states that if the proposed amalgamation be carried it must lead to a competition, at greatly re duced rates, not only from Birmingham to Liverpool, but also throughout the whole of the Great Western district; that the Shrewsbury and Birmingham and the Chester companies have had ample experienee of the no profit and no dividend attending traffic obtained by such means. The London and North-Western Company have gone through their difficulties, have capitalised their en gagements, and are prepared for the contest with funds in hand and a considerable surplus. Looking to the fate of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton share holders under their agreement with the Great Western Company, and to the anxiety of that company to rid themselves of the burdens between Oxford and Birming ham, it behoved theta to pause before they placed their property in a similar position. He begs them to reflect, whether they will prefer uncertainties and dangers, with no dividend until the year 1852, to a clear and fixed dividend of 3,3 i, and 4 per cent., commencing immedi ately, and payable for 21 years, after which period they will have a valuable and unencumbered property, and states that the proposed agreement with the London and North-Western Company is drawn under the advice of eminent counsel, and in their opinion it will be un doubtedly valid and binding upon all parties.
