AMEETING of the SOCIETY for the EMAN CIPATION' of INDUSTRY was held at Exeter Hall on Tuesday, July 1, ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Esq., in the Chair, at which the following resolutions were moved and carried Resolved,—First—That this Society cannot refrain from expressing its surprise and disappointment at the very unsatisfactory resolutions introduced by Lord John Russell in the House of Commons on the 26th of May, for the professed purpose of ameliorating the condition of the workin , , classes of the United Kingdo m , and of correcting the alarming evil' for which his Lordship did not account; that while " the rich are groWing tither, the Door are growing poorer ;"-and this meeting considers that no professions of sympathy for the dis tressed condition of the labouring classes can avail anything, or be satisfactory to the country at large, so long as those classes are compelled to provide for a heavy taxation on articles of consumption in a money artificially made scarce—a regulation which confers an undue and unnatural advantage upon capital over industry. Second,---That it is the opinion of this Society that the state of actual destitution and suffering under which it is acknowledged the labouring classes in this kingdom are now so- largely suffering, in the midst of superabundant wealth, and the inexhaustible means of producing that wealth, is not owing to any fault of their own, nor to any express dispensation of Providence, but is attributable to in judicious legislation, of which the most striking example is the per • vicious currency law of 1819—a measure which Sir James Graham ,truly and emphatically denounced as a " delusion and a fraud." Third,—That the object of the currency law of 1819 and of the :monetary measures of 1844 and 1845 Is to reduce the prices of pro duction to the level of gold prices, while the - object of eorn laws, and of all protective laws, is to raise prices above the level of gold, in order to Compensate for heavy taxation ; and thus the one ,object is inconsistent with, and contradictory to, the other.—That it is the Intention of the Legislature, in levying taxes on commodities, to secure that those taxes should be paid by the consumers generally in a rise of prices; but the effect of the monetary measures before re ferred to is to prevent a rise of prices, and thus to dePat that inten tion.—That by these means a grievous wrong is inflicted on the pro '42eing classes, the effects of which are observable in the wide-spread * -c- Y.Aree., thin described by Sir James G ra h am as already Itraoanting in ngland to full one-tenth of the population, and in the alarmiug pression of the prices of agricultural produce, in consequence of which the wages of the labourer are reduced to their present low and insuffi cient rate. Fourth,—That this Society contends that the high scale of indirect taxation in this country demands a corresponding scale of prices both of labour and of the produce of labour ; and that such scale of prices is incompatible with the present low fixed price of gold,.which has the effect, not only of throwing upon the producers the burden of that taxation which ought to be paid by the consumers, but of perni ciously restricting the circulating medium of the country, by making It dependent on the quantity of gold in the Rank of England. • Fifth,—That if gold were allowed to find its market price in the currency of the country, like all other commodities, and in obedience to the law of supply and demand, prices in the home trade would rise to a remunerating level, without affecting the prices of our foreign trade, which are now, and always must be, regulated by the market price of gold. That competition would prevent home prices from rising in such a circulating medium beyond the level that indi rect taxation justified ; a level below which it is as unjust to the pro ducer as it is dangerous to the public ereditor to reduce them.—That the Government money (or Exchequer-bills) now issued for taxes in a shape and in amJunts exclusively usef classes monied class, should be issued in amounts convenient for all —namely, in notes of one pound and upwards ; that these notes being necessarily confined . within the amount of annual taxation, would be founded on and re present that property which the Government annually draws from the people in taxes, and would form the legal-tender money of the nation.---That labour would then receive its fair and reasonable re - Ward, whlle the commerce and industry of the country would be freed from their present unnecessary and injurious dependence upon foreign exchanges. Sixth,--That this Society views with horror the monstrous doc trine attributed to Sir Robert Peel in the debate on Mr. Villiers's motion upon the.lothof Jnne, that the increasing impoverishment of the industrious classes is without remedy; that "great wealth • being found side by side with great poverty" is "inseparable from • civilisation, and that civilisation in itself increases the tendency in a country towards them,"—a doctrine which would consign a large . portion of our countrymen to irremediable poverty. That this Society is prepared to prove before a Committee of either House of Parliament that such a social anomaly is mainly attributable to mis taken views of the nature and uses of money, and of the laws governing the distribution of wealth; and they cannot but ascribe it to the deepest and most deplorable delusion, that in the recent dis cussions on the subject of the Corn-laws and Banking, the National Debt and Taxation, which form essential elements in both questions, have been studLusly excluded. Seventh,—That petitions, representing the. substance . of the reso lutions of this meeting, and praying for legislative inquiry into the effect of currency on prices, and on the 'wages of labour, be now prepared and signed by the Chairinatiof the Society, and be presented to the House of Lords And the House of Commons ; and that the Provisional Committee formed for the convening of this meeting be requested to place the petitions in suitable hands for presernattion and support.

Leicester Stanhope having been called to the Chair, Was moved by Major IVALER, KAI : , seconded by General Sir JOHN FITZGERALD, and carried unanimously— That the necessity of another great trunk railway from London to the manufacturing districts appears to be admitted by the Govern ment authorities, the Board of Trade, Committees of Parliament, and the commercial world generally, and this' not only as regards public convenience, but also on the broad ground of public safety ; And that shortly this requirement will- be greatly increased by the competition of the Irish, Scotch, and northern HMS now in progress. It was moved by DANIEL TURTON Ratesorr, Esq., of Aldermary Churchyard, seconded by Jouti BURGESS, liisq., the Boroughreeve of Manchester, and carried unanimously— That, therefore, it is desirable to establish this independent trunk railway from London to Manchester, which by passing more directly through the central parts of the kingdom, and .at nearly equi-distance from the two great northern lines already in existence, would sup ply the great industrial population of the north with a shorter, course wi th to speedier, and more convenient mode of transit, and would, at the same time, furnish the country t o wns a nd agricultural districts in its umeans of-i communication, jury. in welch, as compared with Other localities possessi ng railway facilities, they-are now lamentably their manifest injury.

The provisional Committee beg to announce to the shareholders that; in consequence of strongly expressed local opinion, and with a view to selure the valuable support of the Leicester and Swanning ton Railway Company, the provisional Committee' have determined on deposi ing plans and sections for an alternative line, to form a junction with the Leicester and Swannington Railway at Desford, about six miles Com Leicester.. This junction will afford all equally short communication with Leicester, and save the expense of several miles of new line, and will at the same time, by means. of projected communications, branches, extensions, and improvements of the Leicester and Swan nington Railway, give direct access-to Ashby and Burton-on-Trent to the North, and to the Syston and Peterborough Railway, or East, affording a direct line of communication from Cheltenham, Warwick, Leumington, and Coventry, to Melton, Peterborough, Cambridge, and Lincoln. NEWARK and SHEFFIELD RAILWAY. The Committee of Management beg to announce to the Shareholders that they have every reason to believe the Bill was de, Tested in Committee by the production, on the part of their oppo.; nents, of an alternative line, the plan and section of which the pro moters of the Bill were n.t allowed any opportunity of testing before the case was closed ; they have since done so, and ascertained the section to be most incorrect—in fact, twenty chains longer than it ought to have been, by which the gradients were, of course, propor tionably flattened. The discovery and proof of this error have not, however, been deemed of sufficient importance to warrant a re-committal of the Bill. - • • _ _ .. • The very general support which the Newark and Sheffield line, with its extensions, has received, coupled with the strong recom mendation from the Board of Trade on public grounds, affords the best Assurance that it must obtain the sanction of the Legislature in the next session of Par.iament. In the meantime, a new and careful survey of the whole line will be made by skilful engineers, and every requisite means adopted by such modifications of the original line and additional extensions, a§ will render the scheme as perfect as possible, and secure the inte rests of the Shareholders. An account of the expenses will be made up as soon as possible, and the Shareholders who wish to withdraw from the undertaking are requested to give notice of their intention to the Secretary before the Ist of August next.

F. G. SMITH, Secretary. REPEAL ASSOCIATION. The weekly meeting of the Association was held this day, Sir Simon Bradstreet, Bart., in the chair. Mr. M. O'CONNELL having announced the receipt of 9.9/. from Ardagh, proceeded to advert to the late murder in the county of Cavan, and expressed his conviction that it was the duty of every individual to use his best exertions to hunt out the perpetrators of that atrocious deed. On co,icluding his observations, the Hon. Gentleman read a letter from Mr. O'Connell to Martin Crean, E3q , dated London, June 26, announcing that he should not be able to attend the meeting, as he consid,red it incumbent on him to attend the Committee on the Irish Academical Bill. He thus concludes his letter : " Can there be found one single rational being in Ireland to deny :hat there is but one remedy, and that only to be found in the re storation of our Irish Parliament. No man can be loyal to the Monarch, or attached to the connexion with Great Britain, who does not see that the only means of preserving the connexion be tween the two countries is by the restoration of the Irish Parlia ment. " I return, therefore, to Ireland, more deeply convinced than ever of the necessity of the repeal of the union. I return to that struggle with unabated ardour and continuing perseverance—to seek for it by legal, peaceable and constitutional means, and none other. But to seek for it with a determination and continuousness that before long must ensure success. HURRA.H, THEN, FOR TIIE REPEAL! I have the honour to be, your very faithful servant. " DANIEL O'CONNELL." Captain BRODERICK moved the adoption of a petition to Par liament on the subject of the relations between landlord and tenant. The document detailed several cases of oppression which occurred on the estate of J. Kavanagh, Esq., in the county Carlow, and urged the equity of giving tenants compensation not only for future improvements, but also for those which have been already made. Mr. M. O'CONNEEL called the attention of the meeting to the attack which Mr. Roebuck had made on the repeal Members in his place in Parliament, and observed that "the man who lives in glass louses should not throw stones." Mr. DOHENY mov.xl the adoption of the addr. , s3 of the Associa tion to Mr. Smith O'Brien, for the admirable manner in which he repelled the attack made upon him by Mr. Roebuck. Mr. GRATTAN, in a vigorous address, seconded its adoption. Atter the disposal of some routine business, Mr. O'CONNELL announced the reset for the week to be 3532. lie. 3d. THE ARMY. The first division (two companies) of the 61st Regiment, under the command of Major Jones, embarked on Friday, at Cove, on board the Duke of Bedford, East Indiaman, for Calcutta. The 61st is the first corps which ever left the Cove of Cork direct for India, the usual port of embarkation being Gravesend. The second divi sion will embark on Tuesday, on board the Westminster, and the head-quarters on Monday, on board the Alfred, one of the finest ships ever seen in Cove harbour. The 66th Regiment, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Dames, march from Bar for Cork, June '26, and arrive at Cork July 4, to embark on board her Majesty's troop-ship Resistance for conveyance to Gibraltar. HOP IWTELLIGENCE. (From the Maidstone Journal of Tuesday.) MAIDSTONE, JUNE 30.—Again we have to report favourably of the health and vigour of the bine, and although there does not seem so many fly, there are a great many vermin, so much so, that should we not have fine hot weather we must go into a partial blight. In some grounds they are stripping the lower branches off the bine, digging, and what they call stinging them with manure. FARLEIGHS.—The hops are growing well. lIADLOW.—The hops in this parish are going on well ; there is abundance of bine free from vermin. A good crop is fully an ticipated. WROTHAM, PLAXTOL, AND IGHTIIAM.—The hops continue free from vermin, and are in a very thriving state. Those about Crow_ burst, Crouch Ciagat's Cross, and Plaxtol, are generally in the most beautiful condition, growing rapidly, and throwing out their branches luxuriantly. Some fear has been entertained of the sharp north_westers with which we have been visited the last few days, as the bine, from its rapid growth, is very delicate and tender; but no damage is as yet done. In grounds subject to mould that dis ease has made its appearance, but not to any great extent. LA A/SEROUS:ST. —Our hops in this parish are looking well. EDENBRIDGE.—Our hops are still growing nicely, looking healthy, and but little or any vermin. Duty has been laid as high as 180,0004 CANTERBUILY.—Tke fly and lice have increased during the past week ; and this week we have had a little blighty weather, at tended by some li,gh winds; though we could fain believe that they have not had a very prejudicial effect. The bine, on the whole, appears luxuriant, and gives indicalons of a good crop. General accounts state that the vermin has increased, but still not tJ an extent to prove as yet very serious. SEYENOA XS — The hops in this; parish and neighbourhood have made astonishing progress during the past week, the bine strong, healthy, and clean, scarcely a fly to be seen ; pursuing the course of the Sandgate Ridge to Reigate, they are really beautiful, the "low hill" portion are also making gigantic strides. CRICKET. TIIE GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND v. THE GENTLEMEN 'OF KENT. The match was resumed on Tuesday at " Lord's," but the day from its commencement was anything but one for cricket. Fine play, in the strict sense of the word, was out of the question, not but what there was some magnificent hitting in the course of the game by Mr. Seddon, Mr. W. Nicholson, and Sir F. Bathurst on the part of England ; and by the Messrs. Banks, Mr. Felix, Mr. Whit taker, and Captain Wood, of Kent ; but whilst the rain, which had fdlen in torrents until nearly twelve o'clock, had made the ground far worse than it was on Monday, there was in addition a hurricane of wind blowing so as to render it a matter of the greatest difficulty for Sir F. Bathurst even occasionally to run up and deliver the ball against it. The consequence was that there was a vast number of beautiful hits which, under a different state of things, would not in all probability have been made ; these, however, elicited repeated demonstrations of applause from every part of the field. The batting of the Messrs. Banks especially was admirable. Mr. Felix is himself alone, and all who have ever seen him play will easily conjecture that he could not have contri buted 47 runs to the score without the exhibition of much bril liant hitting. We have, however, seen him hit better, and with much less " putting up." Upon the present occasion, too, lie was extremely fortunate in placing his balls. Ile was eventually bowled by a splendid ball from Mr. Yonge, who, it should be mentioned, bowled in as fine a style as has this year been seen at Lord's. The heaviness of the ground, however, as in the cases of Sir F. Bathurst, Mr. Craven, and Captain Lautour, allot - whom bowled excellently, took the " devil" out of the ball, and made it inef f ective. It, nevertheless, with all, demanded great steadiness of play to keep it out of the wicket. England headed Kent in the first innings by 2.9. runs. Kent went in for their second hands, and a reference to the score will inform our readers of the state of the match when " time" was called: -- PUBLICATIONS. THE ROSE, its VARIETIES and CULTURE.

PRICE OF GoLn.—The premium on gold at Paris is 181 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10id. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 61 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 67k, it follows that gold is 0.25 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh, the price of gold is 434 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 94 ; and the exchange at llamburgh on London at short being 13 1 . 1, it follows that gold is 0.79 per cent. dearer in London tnan in Hamburgh. The course of ex change at New York on London is 1094 per cent. ; and the par of exchange between- England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.18 per cent. in favour of England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at sixty days' sight, the interest must be added to the above difference. HER MAJESTY'S NEW STATE YACHT.—Tuesday the Lords of the Admiralty, together with Captain Hamilton, their Secretary, Sir F. Collier, Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, and a dis tinguished party, inspected her Majesty's new state yacht, the Fairy, now lying in the East Ind'a Dock, where she has been for some time past completing her fittings, preparatory to her Majesty's proposed continental trip. After examining minutely the internal arrangements of the vessel, the visitors expressed themselves highly satisfied; and in fact the only complaint we have heard respecting the Fairy is that the accommodations for her crew are not so good as they might be. WILFUL AND MALICIOUS ACT oN THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—A most wicked attempt to injure the pas. sengers travelling in one of the first-class carriages of the train which left Paddington yesterday at noon, was made by some la_ bourers working on the line between West Drayton and Slough. When the train arrived at Langley, close to the spot were the accident occurred by t he u p setting of the carriages a fortni g h t ago, a white earthen p i n t pot was thrown at the door window of the carriage, the train proceeding at the time at the rate of between thirty and loity miles an hour. The pot struck against the side of the window, and was in an instant dashed into fifty pieces, the broken fragments flying into the faces of the passengers, but for tunately without any of them sustaining any serious injuries. Mr. John Sacker, the town clerk of Windsor, received a violent blow on the temple, and another gentleman and two ladies were severely struck on the heal and face. Upon the arrival of tke train at Slough, information of the outrage was given to Mr. Howell, the superintendent at that station, who lost no time in instituting the necessary inquiries to discover the guilty party. Upon his name being ascettained he will be prosecuted by the Company under Lord Seymour's Act. /,z,~ .ENGINE Usually . the mo: pi, —Le part presen. rail way maint -- rn , artsists in persons going bet re the Com mittees of the House of Commons, to give what is called engineering evidence. Engineers are consequently in very great request ; and, while they are at their present remendous premium. Punch has it in contemplation to take a few pupils, and qualify them for giving their tes timony at ten guineas a day from each Committee before which they are examined. Peach undertakes to qualify any one to pass an exa mination in the following triumphant style, for a bonus of 501. and a share in the profits of the evidence : Q. Now, Sir, can you explain the engineering advan tages of this line ? A. I can. Q. Do so, if you please, in your own manner. A. It is obvious that if I take a mean isosceles triangle of three and a quarter, it gives a gradient of five to the square inch, and thus tunnelling will be avoided through at least one-half the line. Q. But how about the embankments ? A. If I cut a square inch oat of a rhomboid, and :brow it off at right angles, it is clear that there can be no support to the sides. If; on the other hand, I esta blish a fulcrum on the surface of a spheroid plane, it i 6 impossible that the embankments can fall in ; and this, I take it, is the great advantage of the proposed line. The CHAfamAN—Allow us to ask, Sir, whether you think a gradient of two will be sufficient ? A.—Certainly IL. If I had a lever and a screw now in the room, I would undertake to show in five minutes that a patent axle working on a broad gauge and going consecutively in rotation alter a doub e stuffing box would be of it,elf sufficient to do all that was required. This answer caused the greatest excitement in the Committee•room, and strangers were at once ordered to withdraw that the Committee-room might deliberate. In about a quat ter of an hour the public were re-ad mitted, and the Chairman said he had only one more question to ask of the last witness. It was simply this —Can it be possible for the broad gauge to wear out the cylinder p a single valve, without tearing off the siphon cock from the main boiler ? The witness, after making a few drawings in his note book, and a reference to a five-foot rule, with which he measured the table in three different directions, answered deliberately, and with great emphasis—Certainly not. The Chairman immediately announced :the preamble of the Bill to be proved; and the rush to the door eras 0 overwhelming that our reporter was carried into group Z, and thence into Palace-yard cab-stand. Ex presses were waiting for every part of the kingdom, and shares immediately went up to 75, at which everybody refused to realise; but a thaw having been discovered after ever• one had left the room, and before the Com mittee had finally broken up, the Bill was subsequently declared to be lost, and the shares fell to 2, with a dawn ward tendency. ;ERING EVTDrNC.b.

ARRIVAL OF TROOPS FROM BOMBAY AND MADRAS.-- , * Tuesday night, about ten, the following detachments of regi ments serving in India arrived at the Invalid Depot, Cave mate Barracks, Brompton, consisting of 1 sergeant and 21 privates of the 14th Light Dragoons, with 7 women and 10 children, and the 2d Qaeen's, 5 sergeants and 37 privates; 13th Light Infantry (Prince Albert's Own), 2 privates; 17th, 2 sergeants, 4 corporals, and 35 privates, with 2 women and 3 children ; 22d Regiment, 1 sergeant, 1 corporal, 3 drum mers, and 45 privates, with 11 women and 16 children; 28th, 4 sergeants, 2 corporals, and 46 privates, with 7 women and 11 children ; 78th Highlanders, 1 sergeant and 10 privates, with 3 women and 6 children ; making a total of 19 serjeants, 11 corporals, 4 drummers, and 218 rank and file, 34 women, and 46 children. The troops were in command of Major John G. S. Gilland, of the 23 Queen's, with Capt. Wakefield, 28th, Lieut. Wade, Lieut. Williams, and Lieut. Mitchell. three officers of the 13th Light Infantry. The above embarked at Bombay, on board the Herefordshire, 1,401) tons burden, Capt. Riehardson, for England, on Ike 24th February last, and arrived off Graves end on Monday, the 30th June, after a passage of four months and four days, during which time the troops lost by death 28 men, viz.:-1 man, 17th; 3 men, 14th Light Dragoons; 7 men, 2d Queen's ; 6 men, f. , 2d ; 4 men, 28th ; 4 men, 86th ; and 3 men, 78th Highlanders, and 2 children. Major Ken nett, of the Honourable Company's service, a passenger, and Mr. Porter, steward of the Herefordshire, died on the vovacre. One man of the 2d Buffs, of the name of Ed ward% a prisoner, under sentence of a court-martial, came with the troops. The men of the 28th are those who were providentially saved from that malignant fever which nearly carried off the whole of the regiment during the time of its attack with the Beloochees, on the 15th June, 1842, at the aking of Sinde. The troops will undergo medical inspection previous to their discharge on their respective pensions. A detachment, consisting of 31 men, with 3 women and 7 children, belonging to the 94th Regiment, under the command of Captain Doar, arrived yesterday afternoon at the Invalid Deptit, from Gravesend, where they disembarked from the ship True Briton. This detachment embarked at Madras on the 3d of March last. The only death on board was one man belonj ng to the Company's service. LON DON DOCKS. On Tuesday the half-yearly general meeting of the proprietors in this commercial establishment was held at the Dock House, Ptince's-street, near the Bank, for the purposes of declaring a dividend for the half-year just ended, and the election of directors to office for the year ensuing. At one o'clock Mr. Cattley took the chair. The minutes of the last Court were read by Mr. J. D. Powles, and the report of the Court of Directors was then submitted to he proprietors. The general results of the half-year, as given in the document net referred to, are these :—ln the six months of 1845, 424 loaded vessels from foreign ports have entered the docks. In the corresponding period of last year 395 vessels were entered, show ing an increasing tonnage of 16,048 tons in favour of this season. In the earnings there has been an increase of 33,784/. in favour of the docks in the past half-year. To conduct this increased business, it fullows, as a matter of course, that an addition In the shape of wages must have occurred, and the expenditure upon this account principally is increased rather over 7,0001. The other details of the report have reference simply to the present flourish ing state of the docks. On the question that the report be adopted, a long discussion was entered into with respect to the policy of the charges for new works being deducted from the earnings of the establishment, as respected the interest of annuitants for a term of years ; but the Chairman and others put the subject in a clear position by the assertion that annuitants, as well as others, had been benefited by the new works, which had led to income sufficiently great to increase the dividend now proposed of 2/. ss. per cent. for the half-year. A resolution was proposed that a special committee be ap pointed to consider the legality of paying for new works out oi profits, but only three hands were held up in favour of it, and the original motion that the report be adopted, esnbracing the dividend, was carried. The thanks of the meeting were returned to the Court of Di. rectors, and the meeting then adjourned. Mr. Matheson, NI.P., has paired off for the rest of the cession with Alderman Copeland, _III.P.

Bedford held an inquest at th• Red Lion, Prince's street, Westminster, on the body of Charles Yemms, aged 33, a cabinet-maker, killed by falling into the machinery of the Eclipse Richmond steam-boat, on Thursday last. Verdict— Accidental death ; the jury recommendit:g that the hatchway should be barred over to guard against future accidents. FUNERAL OF SIR iVAL FOLLETT.-011 Friday Ilf.Xt the remains of the Right Hon. and Learned Gentleman will be removed from Cumberland.terrace, Regent's-park, for interment in the Benchers' vault under the eastern portion of the Temple Church. The funeral, it is understood, will be conducted in as pri. vate a manner as is consistent with the high position which he occupied. THE 1 LATE lIOMAS HOOD.--It is gratifying and creditable to the national character to observe, in the evidence afforded by the provincial press, the general feeling that appears to prevail throughout the country to pay to the literary genius and moral worth of this departed poet and good man the philan thropic tribute of a widely-extended contribution towards the future support of his bereaved family, from whom he was prema turely snatched before the exercise of those high mental qualities with which nature had gifted him, enabled him to place them beyond the reach of those bitter vicissitudes which un happily are too frequently the lot of the widow and the orphan. We perceive that Manchester is stepping forward in the good work with a noble stride that promises to reach the sum of 5001., and its rich neighbour Liverpool we doubt not will keep pace with the praise. worthy Lancastrian movement. Bath, too, never behind in the appreciation and reward of genius, has also opened a subscription. Lincoln has done the same, and we hope soon to hear that Bristol, and all the other cities and great towns, not onif in England, but in the United Kingdom (for the benevolent unobtrusive genius of Hood was at the service of all) will have caught the humane im pulse, and generously respond to its call.—}ost. ACCIDENT TO LADY ELIZABETH DE BURGH. — We regret to hear that Lady Elizabeth De Burgh,eldest daughter of the Marquis and Marchioness of Clanrtcarde, met with an acci. dent on Tuesday afternoon, by being thrown from her horse while riding on Constitution-hill. It appears that her Ladyship, in company with Viscount Lascelles, to whom she is about to be married, was riding on horseback in the park, and that on reaching Constitution hill her horse stumbled and threw her forward on her head. Her Ladyship, on being raised from the ground, appeared stunned by the violence of the tall, and was immediately conveyed in Lord Ravensworth's carriage, which was passing at the time, to the Marquis of Clanricarde's mansion on Carlton-terrace, where medical advice was promptly obtained. Her Ladyship received some contusions, but was not dangerously hurt. RUNAWAY NEGROES.—A BATTLE WITH THE Winne.— We learn from the Haggerstown (Md.) papers, that on Monday morning, the 26th ult., about 3 o'clock, 10 runaway negroes were discovered passing through Smithburg, Washington county (Md.), on their way to Pennsylvania. They were passed en the road to Smithsburg by Mr. Adam Shank, jun., and sup. posing them to be runaways, he alarmed the citizens of that place, and a party, consisting of Mr. Shank, Constable Flora, Joseph Waltemyre, Henry Lyday, jun., Calvin Shoop, William WCoy, Joseph D. Price, and John I)aimond started in pursuit. Upon overtaking the negroes, they were commanded to halt, when they drew themselves up in battle order, their leader exclaiming to them, " Now, boys, G—d d —n y ou, fight!" They were armed with pistols and tomahawks, and immediately commenced an attack upon the whites, felling several of them to the earth at the onset. The whites being unarmed, except with blud g eons, found themselves engaged in rather an unequal and hazardous contest. Repeatedly the negroes were knocked to the earth, but they re turned to the contest with redoubled fury, and being all stout and very athletic men were rather hard to handle. Constable Flora was twice k n ocked down, Price had his arm nearly severed and the bone broken, by a blow from a tomahawk; lie also hail a pistol sna pped at his face, which very fortunately failed to go off. M'Coy had his shoulder dislocated. Lyday received a wound in the shoulder from a tomahawk, Shank was several times felled to the earth,and the whole party more or less injured. However, after a desperate contest, the whites succeeded in carrying off one prisoner, ,n an almost hopeless condition, with two pistols and two tome.. hawks, which were wrested from the hands of the negroes. Ana. ther negro, badly wounded, after following hie companions a mile or two upon their retreat, gave himself up. We also learn that two more of the gang were arrested near Leitersburg.— American paper. MARRIAGE IN Ilion LlFE.—Tuesday the nup tials of the Duke dell' Albanelo F.
