FKIMLET, TUESDAY.—The proceedings of the coro ner's inquest in this mysterious murder, which stood adjourned from Tuesday last, were resumed to-day. The interest connected with the affair, as may be supposed, had in no degree abated in the meantime. The village was visited by many parties from the neighbourhood anxious to be present at the proceed ings, and the crime which had been committed was the theme of general conversation. No new facts have been allowed to transpire beyond those that have been already published, which, it must be admitted, are not of a very conclusive nature so far as they tend to implicate those persons now in custody ; but the police -officers who have charge of the case are very sanguine as to their being able to connect all the mi nute circumstances which have been allowed to trans pire with the prisoners, and trace home to them a guilty knowledge of the deed. In the meantime, it seems as if there was some want of a controlling power with regard to the inquiry. It has been already stated that there is no rural police in Surrey, and one con sequence of this has been that no one appears to be charged with the sole and exclusive management of the case. There are three parties acting, each inde pendent of his neighbours. The first on the scene of the murder, and not the least active throughout the whole inquiry, was Mr. Biddlecombe, superintendent of the small police force in the town of Godalming. Sergeant Kendall, of the metropolitan police force, was dispatched from Scotland-yard, as soon as inter n gence of the murder arrived there ; and, besides these, there is Mr. Hollinton, superintendent of the police in the borough of Guildford (the town nearest to Frim ley), and who apprehended the prisoners. Between these' three there is no more concert than their own good sense and zeal for the ends of justice dictate to each ; and it is hardly possible but that some little jealousies, or at least emulation es to who shall derive the greatest credit from the affair, should creep in, and to that extent prevent co. operation. There is the further evil arising from the want of a county police, that both Biddlecombe and Hollinton have the affairs of their own special districts to attend to, and cannot give their undivided attention to the investigation of this affair. An instance of the inconvenience which may be expected from this arrangement occurred at the coroner's inquest to-day, when Hollinton, though a most important witness, was not forthcomin g before the coroner, having been detained, it was said, by the investigation of a robbery which occurred the night before in Guildford. We may mention here what we ommitted to state on Saturday last, that Mr. Neale, solicitor in Guild ford, presented himself befor the magistrates on Fri• day, as attending the examination on behalf of the prisoners, and that the magistrates denied his right to appear in that capacity, and refused to permit him to remain during the examination. Since then Mr. Neale applied to have an interview with the priso • ners, in order to prepare their defence, and was again refused. We understand that he appealed to the Home-office, and that he has received an official com munication, to the effect that he cannot be permitted to see the prisoners until after they shall have been committed, if the present inquiry should issue in such a decision. There was, therefore, no appearance for the pri soners at the coronor's inquest to-day, nor were the prisoners themselves brought forward. But some time before the appearance of the coroner, the room in which the inquest was to be held was crowded with parties anxious to hear what further evidence was to be adduced, and among these we noticed Mr. Burrell, lord of the manor of Frimley ; the Rev. Sir Henry Dukinfield, Bart.; Mr. Tickell, Frimley, &c. Mr. W. Holiest, younger brother of the deceased, and clerk to the magistrates of the district, was in the village, and had a private interview of some length with the police officers, but he did not attend the in quest. . . - The jury having answered to their names, The CORONER said it must be quite fresh in their recollection that at the inquest on Tuesday last they had taken some preliminary evidence, which tended to attach suspioion to three, or rather to two out of three, individuals then in custody. Since they had met an active inquiry had been goiug on, minute researches had been made by the police officers, and other additional evidence had been procured. A fourth person was now in custody, against whom strong circumstances of suspicion had transpired. He apprehended, from the information given to him by the police officers, that it was hardly possible for them to conclude the inquiry that day. That though there were several witnesses to be examined who would give evidence that tended to throw suspicion on dif ferent parties, still he thought there would hardly be eufficient to justify the jury in returning a direct verdict of guilty against any one. There were two courses open for them—one was, if the evidence was not sufficient to implicate any one, to return a general verdict of wilful murder against some person or persons unknown. But if the evidence, in their opinion, tended to attach suspicion to any parties, they were bound fully to investigate the matter, and to go into the whole in quiry. It was as much within the province of the coro ner's jury, in cases such as the present, to inquire into all the circumstances, - and to take the evidence, before returning their verdict, as it was the duty of the magistrates to do so before committing prisoners for trial. Now, as the witnesses were not present to day, and as he thought the present evidence was not sufficient to justify a verdict, though he thought it not improbable that other circumstances would yet tran spire which would render the matter clearer, he pro posed that they should now take the evidence of one or two of the officers who had the matter under their charge, and then he would suggest that they should adjourn the inquiry to a future day. Sergeant Kendall was then addressed by the Co roner without being sworn, and stated that he had been engaged in the inquiry since Tuesday last ; that circumsta nces h a d t ransp i re d to attach suspicion to certain parti es , an d t h at t h ere was some clue to fur ther evid ence, which would be forthcoming at another day if toe inqu es t were a dj ourned t i ll that time. He further suggested that Alr. Biddlecombe's evidence should be first taken, as he was first on the spot after the murder. W. H. Biddlecombe was accordingly sworn. He said, I am superintendent of police xt G-odalming. On Saturday, the 28th September, I was directed by the magistrates to come to Frimley ; and about five in the evening I examined the house of the 11 , .w. Gmorge Holiest. I found that an entrance had been effected by breaking a pane of glass in the scullery window, and then, by boring a quantity of holes with a centre-bit or other inst rument, to ena bl e t h e person to remove an iron bar that was fastened. to the wood- work. On examining the scullery door, I found that two holes bad been bored in the frame of the door, directly opposite the bolt, which would enable a per son with a crooked Instrument to force the bolt back. I exaniined two cupboards in the kitchen which is next the scullery, a door communicating between them. I found these cupboards had been broken open. I have compared a screw-driver which I re ceived from Richard Giles with the marks on the cupboard doors, and I have no doubt that they were made with that instrument. The marks correspond exactly as to their width. I found that one of the doors communicating between the kitchen and the dining-room bad been forced. There is no passage between the kitchen and the dining- room, but a double door and two steps. One of these doors did not appear to have been fastened. The passage between the dining -room and the front passage had also been forced, and there, too, the marks on the door corresponded with the screw driver. The front door had not been forced. About two yards from the step of the front door, on the gravel of the carriage drive, I observed two foot marks—both of them were the marks of right feet, without shoe or stocking. The impression of the toes was quite distinct, which showed that there was no stocking. These footsteps were in the direction from the house. About thirty-seven yards further on, in the direction of the front gate, there is a tree, I think a cypress tree, on the lawn. Under that tree there was a good deal of trampling, as if parties had been standing there for a considerable time. From that to the front gate is a distance of from seven to ten yards. At the gate I saw the impression of a man's heel, as if he had slipped, and on the side of the green, but on the gravel there was the impression of a man's arm, as if one man had fallen down there. I should have stated before that where the trampling was under the tree I picked up this piece of worsted. (Witness here produced a small piece of blue worsted, apparently a shred of a woollen stocking.) I received, as I alreadlt stated, from Richard Giles a screw-deiver, , a cotton handkerchief, and part of a worsted stocking; and from Ellen Valler some paper, which I suppose to have been the paper that rammed down the bullets, as it was doubled up like wadding paper.—(Witness here pro duced some shreds of half-burnt paper, which still retain the smell of powder). From inquiries I made my suspicions fell upon the three men in custody, which I communicated to Mr. Hollinton. On the following day Mr. Hollinton accompanied me to Frimley, and we arranged to take them into custody on the following day. The names are Levi Harwood, James Jones (but I shall prove that his name is Bur bage), and Hiram Smith (but I shall bring a person to prove that his name is Trower). They were ap prehended on the ch a r g e. I have since measur e d t h e right foot (on Thur s day) last) of Harwood an d Smith, and I find that the naked foot of Harwood is 9f inches long and 3 inches wide, and that Smith's is 9/ inches long and 3-f wide. These are as near as possible the dimensions I found in the garden as to length and breadth. I measured them on the Sun day morning. I only found them on the Saturday night by candle light, and it being too dark then to measure them I covered them up. I found the great toe of the right foot of Harwood very much cut, as if it had come in contact with flint, or as if it had been running on flint stones. The stocking also had a quantity of blood on it. The stocking was taken off him by Hollinton. CORONER—Have you reason to believe that if this inquiry were adjourned other and important evidence will be forthcoming ? Witness—l have not the least doubt of it. CORONER—Do you know that there is a fourth man in custody ? Witness—Yes, Hollinton took him. CORONER—Is Hollinton here ? Witness—No. CORONER—Do you know the prisoner's name ? Witness—His name is Harwood, I believe Samuel Harwood. He is first cousin to the other prisoner Harwood. Ellen Valler—l am a single woman, and was in the service of the late Mr. Holiest. I had been with him for sixteen years as a servant of all work. There was another female servant, and a man servant. The name of the other female servant was Elizabeth Tanner. On Friday, the 27th September, 1 went to bed about eleven o'clock, the same time as Mrs. Hol lest. Elizabeth Tanner had gone to bed earlier. We both sleep in the same room. Before going to bed I had seen that all the doors and windows were fastened. This was a little before ten o'clock. My mistress and I were the last persons out of bed. I was in the scullery between nine and ten o'clock. I did not look at the window. Elizabeth Tanner fastened the scul lery-door, and I bolted the inner door leading from the kitchen to the dining-room. The bolt -8 on the side of the dining-room. I also fastened the door leading from the dining-room to the front passage. The bolt was on the passage side. The re Sc t wo b e d- room floors in the house. I slept on the upper bed-room floor. The window of our bed-room looks to the side of the house, to the east side. I was disturbed about three o'clock in the morning by the firing of a gun or pistol, and screaming. I know the time, because when I came down stairs I looked at the clock. The report and the screaming wero both in the house. I got out of bed and unlocked the door. My fellow servant rose at the same time. I met the man servant at the bottom cf the stairs ; he was coming for me. He said that master was shot, and that thieves were in the house. I went up stairs again to my master's room. There was a door on the land ing, which I found fastened. Either my master or mistress opened it directly. They were both stand ing at the top of the stairs when it was opened. I saw blood on my master's night-dress. I looked be low the bed, and in the next room, to see if any per son was left, as master said he was not sure that all were out. On Saturday morning I found as many as five pieces of green baise lying in the parlour, and gave them up to Biddlecombe. [The Coroner here remarked that these had not been produced.] They gweerae kitchenssmelly, si f a candle had been rloufbnudnpdiea small pieces and i n th e b e d- room over the hr easy, its.ilkin thevery kitchen I found a piece of cotton handkerchief.

They looked as if they had been pieces of match paper. I gave these also up to the police. I also picked up a gun cap outside the bedroom door on last Friday afternoon, when I was sweeping the room. The cap was split, as if it had been down by ex ploded. I think 1 had swept this all through the bedroom over the carpet. I gave it to the door to me. My Mast er went into bed directl y . My master used to have the curtains draw n on the side of the bed, but not 'at the foot. I cannot s ay how the curtains were that night, as I was in such a state of confusion.

J. Fisher. She proved that on the 29th ult. she locked all the doors and bolted the windows of her master's house, at about half-past six o'clock. She then left the house and returned next morning, w h en she found the doors opened, and also observed that the house had been robbed. She missed a pair of silver sugar-tongs, and some silver table and tea_ spoons, which she was able to identify. She went for a polic,rnan, and also called in a Mr. Green, who re sides next door to Mr. Fisher. The table and tea spoons she had borrowed from Mary Jones, grand daughter to Mr. Morley. Mary Jones, on being sworn, deposed to lending the table and teaspoons to the last witness, and could identify them. She knew them by the letters which were engraved upon them. The tablespoons had the letter G on them, and the teaspoons the letters B.W.M. The Rev. James Fisher was the next witness celled. He swore that he slept at Everton on the 29th ult., and had left Great Crosby in the afternoon, about twenty minutes past five. He left his servant Ann Smith in the house, and returned on the follow ing Monday morning. As soon as he returned he fcund that the back lobby door bad been bored, and the bolt drawn. The circular holes bored in the pan nels were about six inches in diameter. On seeing this his first care was to go into the sacristy, which is in the chapel that adjoins his house. He found the door leading to the chapel open. The sacristy is what is called a vestry. Ile went to the drawers, and found all in great confusion. On examining them he missed two silver pyxes, and two holy oil stocks. He also missed an incense boat, and a spoon belonging to it, also some copper money. He could identify the pyxes and the oil stocks. Lawrence Khoe, an officer of the Liverpool detec tive police, was then called, and proved that he went to London on the Ist of October. Knows the pri soner Sirrell. His place of business is at 54, Barbi can. He went there on the 2d of October, about eleven or twelve o'clock in the forenoon. When he got there he saw a man go into his (Sirrell's) shop, with two parcels. Sirrell keeps a shop and a counting-house, and a smelting place at the rear of the shop. The parcels were wrapped in a brown paper. Immediately after the man came out without the parcels, and he (witness) went in. He bad Inspector Lund, of the metropolitan police, and Sergeants Whicher and Shore, besides two other officers in uniform. Lund went in before him. Can not say whether it was before or after the delivery of• the parcels. When he went in, he saw Lund stand ing at the counter and the two parcels were placed on the desk at the end of the counter. Lund seized the parcels and witness went into the counting-house where Sirrell was. On entering be pulled out his warrant card, and then said to him that those two parcels had come to him that morning from Liver pool. He said he did not know who they were from. He then asked him if he had not got any letters of advice respecting them. Sirrell became restive when he asked him respecting the letters, and inquired what he wanted with his private letters, and that he would not allow him to come there. Witness then arrested him, and told him if he could not conduct himself properly he would make him. Lund also told him that he must hehave himself quiet. He then produced a letter which he got respecting the parcels. It was to the following effect:— " Sept. 30, 4, Hope-street, St. Jude's, Liverpool. "I have forwarded some silver, about 15.5. Your attention as usual will oblige yours respectfully, " WILLIAM M`A.oLiz." Knows M'Auley, but does not know where he lives. The parcels were opened in his (witness's) presence, the police, and the prisoner. They were wrapped in brown paper, and one was in a tin canister. The par cel produced is the one that was only in paper, tied with a string, fastened with sealing-wax. It was ad dressed, " Mr. T. C. Sirrill, 54, Barbican, London," and contained two broken silver table-spoons, two silver pyxes, lour silver teaspoons, two salt and one eggspoon, a silver sugar tongs, two castor tops, and two holy oil stocks. The articles were then identified by Mr. Fisher, his servant Ann Smith, and Mary Jones; as those taken from his house and chapel at Great Crosby. This was all the evidence produced by Mr. Dow ling, who proceeded to the case of Maguire, for steal ing plate from Mrs. Tinley. The cases were remanded till this day week, although Mr. Lewis addressed the bench, stating that no case had been made out against his client, Mr. Sirrell. [PRICE SD. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIM he French crusade against the great anonymous is assuming the ugly look of a struggle between matter and spirit. The press makes little resistance, but the Government makes no way. All sorts of difficulties show themselves, not in the humour of the people, but in the operation of the law. It begins to be evident th a t th e o bject of attack is too airy, too impalpable, too subtle and illusive, to be chained, or transfixed, or cloven, or crushed, or other wise subjected to the laws of matter. Countless ques tions arise. What is an article ? What is a " discut.- mon ?" What is an opinion ? What is a fact ? What is a signature ? What is an author ? Indeed, the troops are on the move before it is precisely un derstood what they are t o a tt ac k. Wh en tyros legis late they invariably substitute their intention for the actual process, and think that a motive makes a law. In the present instance the N a ti ona l A ssem bl y h ave done little more than express their feelings against anonymous journalism. They certainly have not 3et given effect to that feeling. They trust possibly to an assistance which even the most ex p er i ence d - and practical legislators occasionally are fain to depend upon; namely, that the courts will supply the defects of the law, and put the new principle into working form. That is all very well when we are moving in the track of existing law, when we are dealing with things already recog nised, and when there are precedents to guide us ; for jurisprudence favours those that keep in the old paths. But the sample of legislation now before us is alto gether uncustomary ; it introduces new things into legal discussion, and demands new interpretations. In the first place, what is an article ? Does a black line—do two or three asterisks—does a total change of subject, destroy the unity of an article ? If a writer is not able in the hurry of composition, or by the habit of his mind, to arrange his thoughts in mechanical continuity, but throws them out in the form of "thoughts," though with a perceptible unity of subject, is he writing one article or a dozen 1' On the other hand, if a man gives a mechanical unity to his composition, and pours it out in one continuous paragraph, without break or halt, but begins with an indecent story from Lucian, proceeds' to a criticism on the original text of Job, glides off to Whigs, stock brokers, and Jews, and winds up with some corn-law statistics, is that one article merely because it is one paragraph ? If we regarded only the subject, a strict interpretation of the French law would require only one signature in the former instance, and in the case of the multifarious gentlemen would insist that he should pause, and write his name at full length half a dozen times in the course of a half column. The Moniteur made several distinct statements on the au thority of the Attorney-General, with the name of that functionary only once expressed, and did not dream that it was breaking the law ; nay, it daily repeated the offence till the Gazette de France pub lished Pensies diverses, separated by asterisks, with only one signature for the whole, and the National did something of the same kind. It then became evi dent that the law was evaded, and all the offenders have been called to account. But we need not look to the other side of the Channel for proof of the fact that there are people not so much ingenious at evad ing the rule of unity as incapable of observing it. There is also the conversational style, such as that of " Christopher North " in our northern contemporary. What is to hin der every variety of subject from being brought into a dialogue between two imaginary per sons, or more, if necessary ? The British public would recoil against the requirement of a signature to every little morsel of with—ta a pun, for example —not two lines long. Charivari is already ground to dust by this process. Again, what is to prevent the use of mouth-pieces? We do not mean what somebody has called a go-to-prison editor, or any con trivance of that obvious description. But there are men who habitually gather round them their juniors, or their inferiors, or peogle with less force of charac ter, and more easily moulded than themselves. Their fol,owers repeat their sentiments almost as faithfully as they could do it themselves. Socrates never wrote a word, but we know what he thought and felt on every possible subject of philosophical discussion. Boswell did Johnson more justice than Johnson did himself. We have frequently read arti cles in reviews which left no doubt of the im mediate inspiration to which they were in debted. The "Tinguy •Lahoulie amendment," as it is called, cannot touch this sort of influence. It can only extort the name of the man that holds the pen, though he may be little more than reporter to the real original. The moving spirit of the National or the Presse may go into the office of his journal every day, gather a set of young spirits about him, and set them all of a flame on some topic of the day. They will not be good fur much if his facts, his images, his quotations, his antitheses, and a good many of his very expressions do not appear in the paper the next day. Everybody acquainted with the press knows that an article is often a condensed and perhaps a dry form of an animated conversation. Everybody knows, too, that many a good article is nothing more or less than a private letter, translated into the dialect of journalism. Now, how does the Tinguy-Laboulie amendment affect articles of this class, in which, by a natural and innocent process, the prompter and the writer are two different persons? The result will be that some young hand, or some ready writer, wholly un known to the public, will sign his modest name at the foot of th e ar ti c l e , w hil e t h e prompter w ill reta i n his incognito. If this is not already the case at Paris, things are in train for it. The old hands are lying by to wait for the event, and youngsters are supply ing their places for the time with tedious articles that are not the better fur being owned. Paris will not stand this very long; and if its chief political writers do not choose to comply with the new law, they will at least have to put more life into their proxies. Could we suppose the law to continue in force, and the signatures of well-known men regu larly appearing in the papers, it is evident that what the Government and the cause of order may gain in one respect they will lose in another. Journalists will write in a more guarded, but perhaps a more sarcastic, more allusive, and more telling style, than now. They will get into the way of con veying an impression, when they seem only to be stating a fact. They will learn the insi dious and powerful tone by the use of which "so many writers of the last age succeeded in sapping the foundation of sound policy or religion, without leaving the censor one word to lay hold of—the style of Voltaire, of Hume, and of Gibbon. These men owned what they wrote, but they were not the less dangerous; and the two former at least were not the less shrouded. The difficulty of drawing a line, and possibly a wish,to appear impartial, have led to the prosecution of no less than six journals ; one of them a devoted Minis terialist. As usual, the most hostile amongst them affect a laudable desire to become acquainted with the law, but ask for some less inconvenient mode of in struction than a series of prosecutions, each elucidating some one mystery of the new law, but at the expense of a considerable fine, or worse penalty. It is sug gested, or rather demanded, that the Attorney- General should give practical lectures on the opera tion of the law, with examples of what a journal may do, and what it may not. I n England this is certainly no part of the Attor ney-General's functions. The Evenentent, however, has succeeded in extracting an opinion gratis, though there is some reason to apprehend that the opinion is a bad one. At all events, it is at variance with the proceedings taken against the six journals. in reply to questions from the Evi-nement, the Attorney- Ge neral is said to have given an opinion that a number of facts might be clustered together, with asterisks between them, and with only one signature below; and also that the edit or ' s s i gna t ure wou ld d o f or an article prepared at his discretion by another hand, a responsible signature being all that the law desired. Such an opinion is so lax, so open to abuse, and so contrary to the line already taken by Government, that some people suspect an intention of backing out of the Tinguy-Laboulie amendment altogether. Whether there be such an intention or not, the result will probably be the same. The attempt to destroy the old position of the press, and to split it up into individual names , is t oo ! se riou s an attack on its power and independence to be readily complied with. It will open a festering sore between the Govern ment and popular feeling, in which all the accidents and opportunities of the quarrel will be in favour of , the latter. CHRONICLE.—The Journal des Debate, of two or three days since, made a very true remark the foundation of a singularly false conclusion. After observing that English jurisprudence clings servilely to the letter of the law, and that the legists of France make it their business to discover its spirit, the writer proceeded to infer that the new enactment against the Press would be absolutely intolerable in London, while, under an equitable application of its provisions, it might possibly be endurable in Paris. We leave the controversy, as to the abstract merits of the English and French systems, with the hint, that each might borrow with advantage from the characteristics of the other; but we must express our strong dissent from the notion that a law requiring the signature of articles in a journal would operate with greater severity in England than in France . It nrght be urged, with much greater plausibility, that such a law would be a mere dead letter in the English RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. THE LONDON AM) NORTH-WESTERN, AND SHREWSBURY AND CHESTER, AND SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANIES.—It is rumoured in a quarter where accurate information generally circulates, that such a change is likely to take place in the management of the Shrewsbury and Birming ham Railway as Rill, in all probability, put an end to the unfortunate dispute which has so long existed between that company and the authorities of the ' London and North-Western Railway. The necessity of some change in the policy of the two companies— the Shrewsbury and Chester and the Shrewsbury and Birmingham—who are associated in opposition against the London and North-Western Company, would appear to be self-evident from the fact published by us a few days since, viz., that the Shrews bury and Chester Company absolutely applied to the Court of Chancery for the committal to the Queen's Bench Prison of three of the London and North-Western directors, who, as members of the Chester general station committee, felt it to be their duty to oppose the measures advocated by their opponents belonging to the Shrewsbury and Chester and Shrewsbury and Birmingham party.

WEST INDIA MAIL CONTRACT. The particulars of the mail contract, recently en tered into between the Admiralty and the West India Steam Packet Company, have just been printed and published by the Government. According to this document, the West India and Brazilian form one contract, which is to commence on the Ist of January next, and to last 11 years. The company are to provide 15 wooden steam-vessels; ten of them are to be of 400, four of 250, and one of GO horse power. They are to provide also a sailing vessel of 100 tone burthen. All these vessels are to have lightning con ductors, and the commanders, and chief, and second officers, must have certificates of fitness from the Board of Examiners appointed by Act of Parliament. None of the small vessels are to perform the Atlantic service. The company are to receive 27,0001. a-year from Government, and the penalties to which they are liable are 50,0001. for non-performance of the con tract ; 5001. for not starting from Southampton at the proper time ; and 2001. for not starting from any other port. They are bound to vary, if required, the route of their vessels employed in the North rind South Atlantic Oceans, between the latitudes of 27 degrees North, and 37 degrees South, and 20 degrees, and 97 degrees, 52 seconds, West longitude. They are to receive Os. 10d. for every additional mile their vessels are required to perform in the course of a year beyond 547,296 nautical miles. They are bound to make improvements in the construction, equipments, and machinery of their vessels, as the advanced state of science may suggest. If the packet station is re moved from Southampton, they are to receive com pensation for the expense of removal, and for dimi nution of receipts. In case of war, they are to be paid extra—that is, in the event of increase of rate of insurance, and of the freight of coals. But the extra pay is not to exceed in one year 75,000/., nor are they to be paid for a dditional freight on more tha❑ 75,000 tons of coals annually. They are bound, if required, to convey as passengers on board each ship a limited number of officers in the navy, army , and civil service of her Majesty, and of non• commis sioned officers and soldiers, at reduced fares. [ADVERTISEMEN T. ] —A I a Other Proof of the Effi cacy of Holloway's Ointment and Pills for the Cure of Bad Legs.—Mrs. Mandeville, of Stretton, suffered for nearly three years with fearful sores in both legs. Notwithstanding the various medicines and treatment of which trial was made, the ulcerations grew worse, and for months she was unable to stand. At length it was decided that Holloway's Ointment and Pills should be used, and these excellent medicines soon worked wonders, for in a few weeks all the wounds were healed, and the use of her leg so perfectly restored, that she is now able to walk several miles a day with ease.—Sold by all Vendors of Medicine, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London. AN AMERICAN GASOMETER.—The Philadelphia Ledger states that the gasometer being put up at the Phila delphia gas works will be the largest in the world. It is built in the telescopic form, with two sections. The di mensions are one hundred and forty feet in diameter, by seventy feet in height, capable of containing one million cubic tees of gas. 7// , / f , _ - ( / =_-_, ./elz/ 74'w ,~~ 1, l_ se . ' - statutesbook. We do /sot mean to say that any great difficulty would be experienced in compelling the ap. pesirance of the English newspapers with a Christian and surname attached t a each article or paragraph, but we are quite unable to see what guarantee could be provided of the authenticity of the signature, or in what manner the affiliation of an article or an indi vidual guiltless of its production could be brought home to the real or to the putative parent. Will any one suggest to us the form of an Act of Parliament which should enforce the signature of the right article by the right man ? low would the draftsman attain his purpose unless he were to invent a machinery so inquisitorial that in no state of public opinion, how ever exceptionally morbid, it would for a moment be tolerated; and unless he were to reverse what are now the settled first principles of English jurisprudence in arranging the procedure on the indictment of a sup posed offender ? The security of English journalists, against a blow imitated from M. de Tinguy's amend ment, rests much less on anything in the temper of English lawyers, than on the potency of certain maxims which have not only forced themselves into our law, but which are engrafted upon the character of our people, and have become necessities of their fashion of thinking. The merciful axiom of our juris prudence which throws the burden of proof on the prosecution, and which shields the accused by the presumption of innocence, would conclusively defeat an attempt to wring the secret of authorship from an unwilling writer. It is a safeguard for which we have no peculiar reason to thank either the wisdom of our ancestors or the clemency of our legists. It is simply the result of painful experience. The English nation has suffered much at the hands of its Governments ; and upon its emancipation from each successive stage of tyranny, it bus extempo rized a new rule to protect it against the recurrence of the latest of its wrongs. But the French codes have always appeared to us to be constructed on the principle that Governments are necessarily and per petually beneficient. The annoyance from which the French journals are just now suffering is a direct consequence of the very characteristic:of French ju risprudence on which the Journal des Debats seems disposed to set an overweening value. An undue disregard of the letter, from a pretended respect to the spirit, not only governs the interpretation of laws in France, but affects legislation most injuriously. The habit of couching enactments in vague and loose phraseology, which flows immediately from it, make judges occasionally oppressive and senators always careless. The spirit of M. de Tinguy's amendment demands the annoyance of French journalism. The letter requires the signature of all " articles of discussion" by their author. One of the law ' officers, taking the spirit, we presume, as his guide to the letter, has construed " articles of discussion" to mean articles in which conclusions are drawn from facts. Can this learned person have reflected on the true scope of his definition ? On examining the double sheet which forms our yesterday's impres sion, sa e have made up our minds that, in about two thirds of the matter imprinted on it there are to be found conclusions inextricably connected with facts. If the rule were to be inexorably applied, it is incre dible what difficulty the most innocent-looking para graph would have in escaping from it. The corre spondent who informs us of the continued fineness of the weather in tb e north of Scotland, and thence infers that her Majesty will be able to carry out her intention of travelling from Balmoral on October 10, draws a conclusion, and must sign. Not even our obituary would be safe. We caught sight, the other day, of a notice which, after stating that a lamented lady had lived in the charity and died with the aspi rations of a Christian, went on to presume that she was in the enjoyment of celestial bliss. The afflicted writer would have to authenticate his hopes by his signature. Why, our very advertisements would have to be penned like a special verdict. Our appreciation of the purely material obstacles which forbid the imposition of similar restrictions in England, has hitherto kept us aloof from a contro versy into which one or two of our contemporaries have plunged with considerable zest and zeal. We believe that a measure analogous to the new French law would be utterly impracticable on our side of the Straits, and any interest we may feel in the questions it raises is therefore exclusively speculative. But we still adhere to the opinion which we early expressed, that M. de Tinguy's legislation is vicious in princi ple, and nothing that we have read from English pens —the French journals are hostile to the change with out an exception—has materially modified our im pressions. We may be permitted to pass by the amusing assertion which has been hazarded in one quarter, that an enactment of the description in ques tion would be perfectly innocent, since every respec table English journalist is as well ascertained by the tone of his articles as if he actually signed them. In fact, this argument puts us to the painful alternative of either disclaiming our own respectability, or'forget ting the innumerable mystifications which have been practised on the public, as to the authorship of our productions. The residue of the apologies recently advanced—we may mention that an evening contem porary has arrayed them with great skill—resolve themselves into the single position which M. de Tin guy developed in the French Assembly, that society, as against the journalist, has a right to some security for the good faith and wholesome morality of the counsel which he supplies. The safeguard &mended is supposed to be found in the publicity given to his name. But, under the existing system, the public has a far higher and surer guarantee at its command than the prohibition of secrecy. It has the same re medy which it wields against the dealer who offers it vitiated sugar or spurious tea. Caveat emptor. Don't buy the newspaper whose principles you suspect. If you point to examples of perfidy or ruffianism in the English press the answer is the success of those who openly vend the deleterious matter. Society can have no right to a higher standard of taste or morality than the one which it continues to patronize. A more spe cious form of the same objection occurs when it is urged, that to be emancipated from the restraints of public opinion is good for no man, however brilliantly endowed and however naturally upright. There is, of course, much weight in the argument when put nakedly, and we acknowledge that it would be most difficult to answer it, if it were certain that society would visit nothing on the journalist but the sins of his pen. But would the vigilant enemies of the man who should step forward as the general zailus content themselvei with exposing his illogicalities and rebuking his injustice ? One writer is ill-tempered. Another is ill-born. Another is unhappy in his domestic relations. These are feature; tar more salient than inaccuracies of thought or style, and who can doubt for a moment that they are those of which the mass of mankind would he sure to lay bold? Whenever the Whigs felt themselves particularly stung by the eloquence of Canning, they went about repeating that he was the son of a play• actress—and there used to be a tradition that, after a peculiarly brilliant speech, a piper to this effect was always wafered up over the fire-place at Brookes's. The truth is, that in a society like ours, with its multiplicity of conventional deco rums and its hierarchy of grades, public opinion would allow a journalist to be discredited for a hundred faults which have nothing to do with his capacity for giving advice. It is idle to object that, if this were true, the members of the Legislature might as well hold their tongues. Parliament is respectable, be cause it makes laws and enforces them. We of the Press are a Parliament whose proceedings are all speeches, and our present system affords our best security for gaining a hearing. O'CONNELL'S GRAVE. The following letter appears in a morning paper of yesterday, in reference to an article copied from a Cork paper : " your paper of this morning an allusion is made to my father's burial-place at Glasnevin ; and it is stated, on the faith of some nameless 'Excur sionist,' that the attendant or guide had said that, until certain monies were psid, the coffin should not be al lowed to be removed. " The very ingeniouf, argument of the writer of the article proceeds to enlarge on this text. Unfortu nately, like many other ingenious lucubrations, it has no foundation in fact ; and the Excursionist' must have either misunderstood what was said, or wilfully misled the author of the article. The statement of a servant should, I submit, not be taken as authority in most matters; and, in justice to the employers of that servant, it might have been well to have ascertained the correctness of bis statement. " I shall content myself by simply contradicting such statement. The Cemetery Company, no doubt, will take proper measure? to prevent mistakes on the subjact in future.
