The following telegraphic dispatch, dated Av ranches, Wednesday, eight o'clock, has been re ceived : _ _ " The President of the Republic left St. Le yester day morning, and arrived last evening, at six o'clock, at Avranches, having passed through Coutances and Granville. At Coutances he visited the cathedral, where he was felicitated by the Bishop at the head of his clergy. At Granville he laid the first stone of a dock, which will complete the port. In these two towns, and everywhere on his passage, he was hailed by the population with cries of Vive le President,' and ' Vive Napoleon.' The entry into Avranches, amidst an immense population assembled on the ter races leading to the Sous Prefecture, and saluting the President with the most enthusiastic acclamations, was truly magnificent. The President returns to Paris to-morrow night about 10 o'clock, by the Rouen Railway, and by special train from Bonnieres, which he reaches st 8 P.M." GERMAN Y. Zeitung has a telegraphic dispatch from Cassel of the 9th inst., stating that an impeach ment has been preferred against M. Hassenpflug, the Hessian Premier, and that the public prosecutor (Ober-Staats Procurator) has issued a warrant of attachment. The Common Council at Hanau bas refused to publish the late decrees of M. Hassenpflug's Govern ment. Letters from Prague, of the 7th inst., in the Kolner Zeitung, state that Prince Nesselrode, the Russian Secretary for Foreign Affairs, has reached TopUtz, where Prince Lieven and Count Medem have been expecting his arrival. Field-Marshal Lieutenant Griilne and Baron lionneritz, the Saxon Ambassador at Vienna, were expected to arrive at TUplitz on the Eith inst., and the Emperor of Austria, accompanied by Prince Schwarzanburg, was an nounced for the 9tb. GREECE. A telegraphic dispatch from Athens of the 3d instant, in the Kolner Zeitung, states that Korfio Tamis, the INlini,ter of IVor6uip and Public Instrtac tios, hai been shot. ITALY. The Genoa Gazette, of the 6th instant, contains the following from Venice :—" Tne Minister of Commerce had formed, at Venice, a committee composed of members of the municip-al council, merchants, oaicers of the army, and functionarif-s of the administrative and financial departments, to inquire into the practi cability and expediency of transferring the free port' from the island of St. George to that of St. Lucie, in order to connect it more directly with the railroad station. The committee had unanimously recognized the utility of the project." IRELAND. DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY.—For the first time since the commencement of the famine there are symptoms of a revival of the Irish corn trade with England. The banks in Dublin are now discounting bilis of exchange drawn against consignments of wheat, oats, and barley, to Liverpool end other English ports. This is a most encouraging and important fact, coupled as it is with the teodency to advance in the grain markets, notwithstanding all the alarming predictions of such an influx from all parts of Europe and from America as would completely overwhelm the Irish farmer in his own market. Since the great potato failure in 1846, our own produce had been so far below our wants, that importations to an enormous extent have been constantly in progress ; and, instead of exporting a large surplus, the resources of the country were ex hausted in paying for foreign food. Most fortunately this drain is at an end—the corn trade is resuming its former healthy course—gradually exports are in creasing, whilst food of all descriptions is abundant and moderate in price in the local markets. I have recently noticed symptoms of improvement in our prospects; hut this revival of the corn trade is cer , tainly the most satisfactory indication of a change for the better that has yet occurred. The decided in crease in the income of the Great Southern and West ern Railway Company, enabling the directors to pay a dividend (the first yet declared) of three per cent. upon their vast capital, is another encouraging symp tom in the condition of the country. LAW APPOINTMENTS. — The sudden death of Chief Justice Doherty, which occurred at Beaumaris on Sunday last, has caused a vacancy in the chief seat in the Court of Common Pleas. It is understood that the Attorney-General, Mr. Monahan, will ob• taro this valuable post, and that the Solicitor- General, Mr. H.atchell, will become first law officer —a promotion which would cause a vacancy in the representation of the borough of Windsor. There is already much speculation about the appointment of the new Solicitor-General, and the names of Mr. Sergeaet O'Brien, Mr. Berwick, Q.O , Mr. J. D. Q C., Alia Hughes, Q.C., Mr. Whiteside, Q.C., and other members of the bar are mentioned; but there is little likelihood that any of the appoint ments will be made until the return of the Lord- Lieutenant from the north. The office of advising counsel to the Irish Government, vacant since the ap pointment of Mr. Baldwin as one of the judges of the Insolvent Debtors' Court, will probably remain so until the return of his Excellency. THE HARVEST.—There is not a single unfavour able report in the numerous accounts received this morning, from all parts of the country.. In regard to the potato as well as the cereal and other crops, there is a general concurrence as to the prospect of abun• dance. The deficiency in wheat will be less than had been apprehended—the potato crop, allowing for the loss cf a fotrth, will yield a very large produce ; and t' . .e oat crop is the best for several years past, with a remunerating price to the grower. CLOSE OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC SYNOD.—The proceedings of the Synod at Thurles, which occupied three weeks, closed yesterday by public ceremonials in the cathedral. After the decrees of the Synod bad been signed and attested in due form at the altar, by the prelates pre , ent, the procurators of absent prelates, and the Abbot of Mount Melleray, the Pri mate, bloat Rev. Dr. Cullen, briefly addressed the assembled congregation on the results of the Synod, affording, as they did, " a new and solemn proof and attestation of the renovated youth lipid strengthened fidelity of the Catholic Church of Ireland," although " it was but a few years since when religion was pro scribed, and the severest penal laws enacted against its existence." Addressing the laity, the Primate said, " You, beloved brethren, will be called upon, when these enactments shall be published, to corre spond to the zeal an l fervour of your prel a t es . Y ou will have to adopt and to carry into effect the things they have recommended and proposed. You ar e not to forget that you are engaged in a great struggle, and that it is necessary you should make , reery exer tion to preserve the faith of your fathers. The pro ceeding of the Synod finally closed by a procession from the cathedral to the college. THE LORD-LIEUTENANT AT G A RRON TOWER. The arrival of his Excellency at Garron Tower, on a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness of London derry, being expected a', clacut seven o'clock en Satur day evening, crowds of gaily-dressed persons poured down several hours previous to the appointed time, from every farm-house and hamlet, to the new coast road along which tse cortege was exp ec t e d t o p ass . The pretty marine village of Carn Lough, lately built by the Mirchioneis of Londond erry , an d which his as if by m . ir the centre of the lovely bay from which it derives its name, first attracted the notice of the multitude, who hastened to th e scene of festivities from every direction—in carriages, cars, and vehNes of every description, down to the old Irish country side cart, grotesque in . its ap pearance, but dear to (-very Irishman from . the association which it recals. The LT:OA remarkable objects on the circuitous road which leads up to the tower from tha sea are an immense rock cf limestone called tho Irish Clough a-Stocken— in appearance somewhat like a man's bead and neck, and looked upon by the country people with superstitious reverence—and an enormous cut for the road, fully 50 deep, through the solid rock. The scene which presented itself on our arrival at the Tower was most animated, the approach to the grand entrance, the inner court, and battery, being tenanted to crowding by an immense number of gaily dressed ladies, and by a concourse of the Marchioness of Lon donderry's tenantry, and of strangers, many of whom had ems c ,nsiderable distance, while the -Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, surrounded by a distinguished circle, moved about through the crowd, displaying the utmost kindness and affability to all. A large body of coast guards, under the e, namand of Captain Holland, was drawn up along the coast as a guard of honour for the reception of his Excellency. The cannon, five nine-pounders, were under the direc • tion of Captain Bernard, and banners and flags floated in every direction. In truth, everything possible seemed to have been done to give his Excellency a most cordial and genuine Irish reception. The Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry re ceived his Excellency on the steps of the grand en trance to the mansion, and met him with a most cor dial greeting, and the cheering and waving of hand kerchiefs was again and again renewed. After returning the cordial salutation of his noble hosts his Excellency repeatedly bowed his thanks and acknowledgments to the assembled multitude, and retired slowly into the house. A constant succession of rockets of every hue was discharged for about half an hour, and much fun was cccasioned by the wonder expressed by many country people, who, probably, had never seen such a thing before. Every prepara tion bad been made made for an entertainment suit able to the occasion ; and we are informed that Lord O'Neill had presented the Marchioness of London derry with a large quantity of grouse and two mag nificent bucks for the reception of his Excellency. At half-past eight o'clock a sumptuous banquet was furnished in the dining-hall, in which every rarest delicacy of the season, and wines of the most recherché vintages were combined. The table was ornamented with a splendid display of plate, and over the buffet hung a number of massive gold shields and orna ments. We understand that after dinner the Marquis of Londonderry proposed his Excellency's health, with a cordial welcome to the first Lord-Lieutenant who had ever dined on the summit of Garron The following distinguished party had the honour to meet his Excellency at dinner :—Lord and Lady Listowell, and Lady Augusta Hare, Lady Anne Beckett, Lady G-eorgiana Pratt, Lady Adelaide Vane, Lord Robert Clinton, Mr. John and Lady Helena Stewart, the Hon. Mr. Ponsonby, Mr. Corry Connel lan, Lord Adolphus Vane, Captain Bentinck, Mr. Milner Gibson, Mr. and ll's. Cuppage, Mr. Alex ander Stewart, Mr. MtGarell, Captain Wood, Mr. Alexander, Mr. Scott, of Wellsborougb ; Mr. Hig ginson, Governor of the Mauritius ; Mr. R )bert Cassidy, Captain Holland, and Mr. Lyons. We un derstand that the festivities are to be continued during his Excellency's stay at Garron Tower, and that nu merous invitations have been issued to a large number of nobility and gentry for a grand ball on Tuesday. Yesterday (Monday) his Excellency proceeded by special train to Shane's Castle, accompanied by the Marquis and Marchioness cf Londonderry, Lord Adolphus and Lady Adelaide Vane, the Earl and Countess of Listowell, the Hon. Miss Wyndhsrn, Lady Anne Beckett, Lord Robert Clinton, Captain Wood, Major Ponsonby, Mr. Corry Connellan, John Stewart, E q , Lady Helena Stewart, Captain Ben tinck, R.N., and M. Gibson, Esq. The distinguished party, after enjoying the hospitality and scenery of Shane's Castle, returned to Garron Tower for dinner. We understand that a large and distinguished party have t een invit€d by the Marquis of Londonderry to meet his Excellency the Lord-Lieut nant at a grand banquet at Mount Stewart, on Friday, the 13th inst.— Belfast News Letter. LA MODE FOR SEPTEMBER. (From Le Fotlq Journal du Grand Monde.) The Paris C,f4slaions of the day run entirely upon those toilettes destined to be worn in the country, or at the watering places ; yet so much elegance is maintained in them, that, in our description, we sh a ll but be resuming the information of the choicest pro ductions of the season. For dinner or dancing dresses, a robe of white or gandie, covered with small bouquets of field flowers, embroidered in c .loured silks. These bouquets are composed of daisies, corn flowers, wild poppies, and some ears of corn : the latter are embroidered in straw, which, mixed with the brilliant shades of silk, produce a beautiful effect. The body is ala Vierge, the sleeves enlarge as they reach the elbow, forming a kind of cup, or bell. The edges of the sleeves, as well as the top of the body, are trimmed with a nar row ruche of narrow white gauze ribbon, which has an open scolloped edge. A harvest wreath forms the coiffure to this toilette. A dress rather in the same class is of white organdie, with a double skirt, open in front, in the tunique form, a berthe descending very low behind, and heart fashion in front, the points meeting under the band, falling halt-way over the pagode sleeve, thus giving the appearance of a double sleeve. The elegance of this toilette is enhanced by the beautiful wreath embroidered at the bottom of each sleeve, composed of wheatsheaves, in straw, mixed with bluebells, which are painted in bright colours upon the muslin. The brilliant and velvety appearance of these delicate flowers, which are placed at irregular distances over the ears of wheat, forms a great relief to the em broidery in straw, and produces an effect so natural, that one is tempted to try and gather some of the flowers, which appear to be thrown upon the robe by chance. The stalks of the sheaves are fastened with a bow, and long ends of gauze ribbon, which is also painted upon the robe. Smaller bouquets encircle the berthe and sleeves, but the one on the front of the body is of natural flowers, fastened by a how of blue ribbon, with long ends floating over the skirt. Bou quets in the same style are placed on either side of the bandeaux. A robe of pink grenadine is trimmed, on both sides of the skirt, with five demi-barbes of pink lace, which is gathered so as to form a fan, fastened with a chou of pink ribbon. They are placed so that the edge of the lace falls over the chou of ribbon which fastens the next bathe. The body is trimmed with a traverse of narrow lace, forming a ladder across the front; each traverse is placed over a narrow plaiting of ribbon ; the end of each row is fastened with a very small bow of ribbon, diminishing in size towards the point of the body. The sleeve reaches the bend of the arm, and is trimmed with a double pagode of pink lace, which extends to the wrist, and is fastened up in the front of the arm with a huge bow of ribbon. A wreath of fuchsias, mixed v.ith red, pink, and white roses, is placed round the rolled hair. A beautifully simple mantille, of plain white tulle, edged with ruches of tulle, is thrown gracefully over this elegant toilette. For toilette " at home," a redingote of pink and green chine poult de sole, the body opened square over the chest, and the skirt also open, the edges being scolloped, enlarging as they reach the bottom of the skirt, are trimmed with a double ruche of narrow pink and green ribbon, with a fall of deep lace beneath. The skirt is opened over an under-skirt of muslin, which is trimmed with an echelle of lace, to match that on the dress, separated by insertions of lace. This kind of garniture forms a guimpe, terminated round the throat with a full lace, held up by a narrow black velvet, fastened with a large brilliant. The sleeves are tight to the elbow, with a double ruche to match the dress, the lace entirely covering the arm. A fauchon of Alencon lace is fixed on each side of the head, over bows of pink ribbon, mixed with narrow black velvet, all the ends of which fall over the neck. This elegant neglige should be worn by a young married lady, of dark, yet delicate complexion, to whom it is most becoming. Many pretty deshabille, of coloured taffetas, are trimmed with lace flounces, in the same shade as the dress. The lace most generally used is the Cambria, which is at the same time simple, elegant, and cheap— it is infinitely cheaper and prettier than the woollen lace, and is now made in all colours. The more the summer advance!, the more the lin gerie becomes a requisite in the toilette. Never have lees shaw 5, mantiiles, pardessue, and cannezous in all kinds, been more numerous than at present; and, we might say, never has there been a mere elegant or graceful display of these acceisorief. We must now mention the cannezous of organdie, with a triple pagode sleeve ; these sleeves are em broidered and trimmed with lace; the first descends to the wrist, the last reaches the elbow. They are fastened up, in the front of the arm, with a bow of coloured ribbon. The cannezous terminates with basquiees, is very open on the chest, and meets at the waist under a b ow . T u ll e em b ro id ere d i n satin stitch, made in the same form, has a very pretty effect. The deshabilles for the country are made of nan keen or grey jean, trimmed with a number o f narrow white braids ; these braids are placed sometimes in straight lines of ten or twelve rows, or form Turkish designs, or wreaths of flowers, round the bottom of the skirt and the little casaque which accompanies it. The d6shabilles in foulard are sometimes trimmed with silk braids. Those in figured jaconets are trimmed with one deep scolloped frill, or four or five narrower ones. The trimming on the sleeves com mences at the elbow. The most elegant parasoN are of white moire ; some are trimmed with deep Turkish fringe, others with point cl'Alencon : the sticks are of cat ved ivory, rosevecrd incrusted with stones, or a branch of coral. We have seen two parasols Heide of Brussels lace, lined with pink taffetas : the hoe falls over the edge of the parasol, and forms its triaJning. The sticks were of tortoiseshell, with incrustaions of pearls, amethysts, and turquoise. They are about the size of the marquises —that is to say, very small, and only designed for carriages. Children's costumes are very pretty. The small pardessus of batiste, with a triple row of English em broidery, are beautiful. They are worn over the plaid taffe.tas dresses, Italian blue taffetas, or pink ale' white glacC, with tucks to the waist, shoat enough to show the richly-embroidered trousers. The batiste and muslin dresses are almost all embroidered en tablier, and widening encceur on the body. With white dresses a broad blue or pink sash is worr, tied behind and plaited round the wast. A round straw hat, with a coronet of small daisies, bluebells, and rosebuds : long strings to match the sash. THE SUN, LONDON, STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) ROCHDALE, 2,L YNDAY —is e have hail :,nether today for fl nAel , , hut little or no mange in prices. The wool maiket has been heavy, and the manufacturers have manifested an indis2osition to purcluise at any prize. MACULA SFIELD, TUESDAY.—During the last ten days a better feeling has existed, and sales have been (ffacted in manufactured goods at better rates ; there has, however, been a considerable diminution in the production lately, , so that stocks are reported but 1i , 411! . . For thrown silks there is more inquiry, but [rlces are much below the standard of raw material; wo, however, anticipate an advance, as old stocks are generally worked off. In the raw silk market prices are quoted firm. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—We have had a good active market to-day ; a large amount of business has been done. Goods have changed hands freely, cspe (tidily cheques and fancies, they being chiefly inquired fur. Stocks begin to look low, the manufacturers being principally working to order. The business of the week has been very brisk. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—The demand for some de scriptions of worsted is scarcely so good as it was, but there is no alteration in prices. The German houses are rather more shy of giving out orders for yarns, but the Russian houses order freely, and the quotations are unchanged. There is not a great deal doirig in wool. The staplers are asking higher rates, %hich are not readily acquiesced in. LEaDS, TUESDAY.—There is no change to note in the woollen cloth trade since last week. The mills continue to be fully employed, and stocks on all hands are very low. There is a good business doing in the warehouse by large buyers, and the shipping houses are buisy for this season of the year. HOP IN TELLIGENCE. MAIDSTONE.—The hops are becoming ripe, and u ill probably be picked quickly to prevent the pessi•- bility of accident. Many planters begin picking to-day, and this operation is expected to commence generally on Thursday. Great numbers of hop-pickers, princi pally Irish, are flocking into the district, and although the crop will be a full one, the picking season will probably be short, for every planter will set on as many as his oasts will keep going. MEREWORTH.—The mould has made much havoc within the last week, and there are several grounds that will not he picked at all. There are also a few grounds that are good, and promise a fair crop, but we shall be far short of an average. TESTON, WATERINGDURY, AND NETTLESTEAD.— Where the hops are free from disease there will be an average crop, as they bare grown so freely within the month. There is a considerable quantity of mould, w hich will much reduce the quantity. HADLOW.—The hops in this parish present the ap pearance of an abundant crop. Picking will be gene ral this week. MALLING.— Several commenced picking yesterday ; it will become general towards the middle of the week. The crop is still very uneven in regard to size and fur wardncss, and there are few or no grounds without a little mould. YA IDING AND HUNTON.—Our hops have much im proved during the past week, where the mould has not made its appearance. Some few began picking yesterday, and we think it will become general this week. HoLLlNGßoilatc.—The hops continue to look well, but a little more backward than our neighbours. 'GUT/IAM AND SEAL.—The mould increases in some grounds, while others are quite free. There is a prospect of an average crop. Many planters will commence picking about the 12th inst. HORSMONDEN.—The frosty nights have prevented the " Colgates" from growing to their usual size. In many plantations they are very numerous, but very small, which we consider must act as a drawback to the amount of duty. Picking commenced here yes- terday (Monday). Roi.vENDEN.-"The h-p 3 in this neighbourhood which have been picked are not quite ripe, and some planters have, consequently, delayed picking for a few days. The grapes have come forward this last meek. STAPLEIIDEST.—The picking will become general this day (Tuesday). Mr. Carley commenced last Wednesday, and he states they never came down in better condition. CHANBROOK.—The hops in this neighbourhood are still making rapid progress, developing themselves during the past week in rich profusion. There is to be found here and there a pole with a slight touch of mould, but it is very trifling. Picking commeuces pretty generally this week. TENTERDEN.—Picking has commenced, and pro mises to be favourable for the pickers, but the late crops are rather deficient in condition, the cold nights having rather retarded their growth. liousmoNDEN.—The last week's cold frosty nights and sunny dap have been very beneficial to the ripen ing of the hops, but it has brought a very serious in crease of flea, which takes the condition away very fast. Nothing does so much harm, except mould, at this time of the year. There is the greatest quantity I ever saw in the Weald and Sussex. I was in some crack grounds on Saturday of large extent, which, if wet weather sets in, will be nearly all spoilt, but if they are gathered immediately, sifted, and knocked about, they may deceive some judges. CANTERBURY.—The weather of the past few days has had an extraordinary effect upon the hops. Those v. hich hung in growth have shot forth rapidly. Where the mould exists it is increasing fast, which induces a premature picking. CowDEN.—The hops are going on well. We have a little mould, but not worth talking about. Picking will be general this week. EAST GRINSTEAD.—The hops are very much im proved. Picking has commenced here. BREDE.—Picking will commence this week. The hops in many gardens are very small, and are get ting yellow on the dry :ions. We notice mould in veral gardens. ICKLESHAM.—There is a great variety in thh parish, but taking the parish generally, it will pro duce a very good crop. There is mould showing. FARNHAM, ALTON, AND COUNTRY DISTRICTS, SEPT• 9.—We have had some very cold nights during the last wall, which will prevent any great increase of weight of the grov.ing crop. Picking hr.s par tially commenced, end will be very general this week. —Maidstone Gazette. THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER l2, 1850. pose of, the prisoner negotiated about the price, agreed to pay 1,0001., and appointed a day for closing the busin:ss ; that by some means or other the pri soner was prevented from keeping his appointment, • and had, on tho night before, slept in Whitecross street prison. It appeared, from the statement of the same gcliCemln, that the prisoner had represented in Wapping and its neighbourhood that he had been ap pointed by Government to purchase goods there to the amount of 150,0001. for the West Indies, and hid given orders accordingly, and that he had perpetrated other mischief, which, no doubt, would be fully de scribed in a few days. Alderman CARDEN remanded the prisoner till Friday next, for the purpose of sifting the charges. There was quite enough of evidence to show the fraudulent intent, and it appeared that the tact of the accused enabled him to in:pose upon persons not liable to be deceived by ordinary adventurers. The prisoner has the mark of a cut across the face, and Mr. Taylor, who caused him to be apprehended. said he accounted for the scar by describing in the moA animated style the boarding of a French vessel. It appeared from the anecdote of Captai❑ Crosby, R.N., that in the tremendous conflict a French officer made a thrust at him, which was parried, but not in such a manner as to prevent a severe wound in the face, which, however, was retaliated by a thrust through the body of the most satisfactory efficacy. It was afterwards ascertained beyond a doubt that the honourable scar was occasioned, not in warfare by sea or land, but by an accidental tumble ever a pail of water. A UsPicluUs CASE. Early in the year 1849, when the cholera was mowing dawn a plentiful harvest in Glasgow, Mr. --, a clerk in the employment of a well-known firm in that city, complained one evening of symp toms which seemed to give him some uneasiness as to his fate. Next day he was later than usual in ap pearing at his desk, and just as his employers were ' about to send to his home to inquire into the cause of - his detention, his brother called and informed them that he bad been taken ill overnight with the cholera ; that he had died at an early hour of the morning, and was already buried. Similar cases were than of daily occurrence, and the employers had no doubt but that death had created a vacancy in their establishment, which it was incumbent on them to fill up. The deceased was buried with no greater haste than vas usual on such occasions, in a private Lurid. belonging to himself while living. Shortly after hls death, his employers discovered that he had em bezzled money belonging to them, to a considerable amount, although tha precise extent of his pecula tions could not be readily ascertained, owing to the is genious manner in w.Nch he had managed the bucks which were under his charge. Some property which he left behind him was applied to make good his defalcations, to the amount of 1,5001., but there was reason to believe that the total sum misappro priated by him considerably exceeded that amount. Im medietely after his death it apps2ars that his brother waited upon his own banker, in whose custody was but a very small sum belonging to him, and de posited no lets than 1,0001. in notes of different Seate) banks; a large proportion of the notes being spic and span new, although not of very re cent issue, judging from their dates. It was known to those familiar to him that the deceased brother was very fond of new notes, for which be always exchanged old ones whenever an opportunity etiorded of so doing. He was also fond of new coins of all kinds, and at his death a number of shillings and half-crowns perfectly new were found in his possession. The money was tendered at the bank in a more disordered state than that in which such sums are generally kept, and the explanation given was thrt the sum had just been received frcm the country, and that it had been carried to the bank in the state which it came to hand, the depositor not having had time to arrange it in better order. All this occurred upwards of eighteen months ago, and the whole matter had been well nigh forgotten, when a circumstance took place, on Sun day, the let instant, which not only revived it, but has also imparted to it a public interest, which is daily extending itself. - The deceased, it appears, was in the habit, in addition to his ordinary eceepatice, of acting in the capacity of priv a t e t u t or t o th e t wo seas of one of the members cf the firm. During the time ( f his being so engaged, he was in the habit of ;etenthrig St. George's Church, which was also at tee tied by the family in which he acted es ti tor. On the Sunday named a man, with overgrown whiskers, tee d a portentous moustache, appeared in the church, a short dietance from the pew occupied by the family in question. Service Lad scarcely commenced when this pereoeuge observed the two boys whom the de ceased had taught, whispering Earnestly to each ether, w ieh their attention riveted upon him. lie no sooner observed this than he became very un easy, and after the first psalm had been sung, closed his hock and walked deliberately out of church. Since that tine he has neither been seen nor heard of, but inquiry has been instituted as to his subseuent movements, inasmuch as the boys, notwithstanding his disguise, recognised in him their old tutor and their f..thter's emplrve. In other worli, the deceased has not only conie to life, but has had the hardihood to re• appear in Glasgow. It is difficult to divine his object in going to the very church which he had been in the habit of attending, unless it was that he sought thereby to discover whether his disguise was a complete one or not. Finding that it was not, he his again disypearc d, but no further report of his death has been given in. This circumstance, as may be supposed, has excited a good deal of suspicion, and further in quiry is about to be made into the whole affair. At the time of his supposed death, he was lodging in a house, the inmats of which seem to have been frightened out of it by the announcement that he had been attacked by cholera; nor did they return until after the funeral. Who it was, or what it was that was buried in his stead has net yet transpired, but the coffin is about to be exhumed, when some further light may be thrown upon this singular affair. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF B-41VKRUP7 CY, Sept. 11. (Before Mr. Commissioner HOLROYD.) IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF GEORGE PRICE HILL. The bankrupt in this case was a solicitor, and had become bankrupt on his own petition, being described as late of Fleet-street, in the city of L3ndon, com mon carrier, and the present petition was presented to annul the fLt on the ground of misdescription. Mr. Cooke was counsel for the petitioners, and Mr. Linklater appeared fur the assignees, in opposi tion to the petition. The bankrupt did not attend. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. James, the petitioner, that he and the Hon. Francis Henry Fitz hardinge Berkeley were trustees for the f am ily o f Lady Dillon, and that, in their fiduciary character, they had entrusted the bankrupt and his partner, Mr. Anderson (who carried on business as solicitors at Cannon-row, Westminster), with considerable sums for investment upon certain mortgages, and that the money bad been misappropriated. Several instances were proved, and, on an application to the Court of Queen's Bench, the Master had reported that 2,800/. was due from Hill and Anderson to the truste(s. The fiat against Hill was issued on the 29:h of July, 1849, and a similar petition to the present had been dismissed with costs. Evidence was now given of the debt due, and it was contended by Mr. Cooke that the assignees were bound by evidence to support the fiat. Mr. LINKLATER insisted that the Hon. Mr. BeIlie• h , y should attend to prove that he had not received from the bankrupt or Mr. Anderson, the mortgages in respect of which the advances were made by the trustees, and that, although the description of the bankrupt might have been improved, it would be a case of great hardship on the assignees, who were no parties to the misdescription, to annul the fiat after a lapse of nearly fourteen months. The bankrupt was now out of the jurisdiction of the Court, and the assignees had no control oYer him. He contended that it must be shown the misdescription was with a view to mislead the creditors, or at least that some creditors had been thereby actually misled. The COMMISSIONER said the petitioner had proved himself to be a creditor, and he had a right to com plain of the misdescription, which was so apparent. The bankrupt must have intended to mislead his creditors ; but, without reference to the intention, the misdescription was sufficient ground for annulling the fist; he should, however, only annul if the Lord Chancellor should think fit, so that the matter might be discussed elsewhere. POLICE IN "FELLIGENCE. m A Ns/ON-1.1 O USE. John Crosby, alias Captain Crosby, R.N., was brought before Alderman Darden for re-exarninaion upon charges of fraud. Mr. I - lob:er attenued for the prisoner. Mr. Taylor, who had given evidence on the first day's examination, addressed Alderman Carden when the case was called cn, and said—As far as I em con cerned I should wish not to press the case to the in fliction of punishment against the prisoner, who has, I am given to understand, a wife in great distress, and a child in a deplorable state of disease. Ald:rman CARDEN—Do you consider that a man like this, wEo has been pursuing a long-continued system of imposition, has any claim upon your com passion ? Mr. Taylor—l do not consider that he has any claims, but he has been a visitor in my house, and has been my companion and friend, as it were, and I feel a repugnance to appear against him for severe castigation. _ _ _ Alderman CAnDEN—He has been no friend of yours, but has exercised his ingenuity to impose upon your unquestionable kindness and humanity. Mr. Taylor—l cannot . but regard the condition of his family with pity. Alderman CARDEN—It is one of the inevitable con• sequences of a criminal course that the guiltless are made to suffer with the guilty. I can very readily sympathise with you in the feelings you have ex pressed, but I sin hound as a magistrate to proceed with this inquiry into the conduct of as adroit and dangerous a person as it would be possible to find, and it is certainly no violation of hospitality in such a victim as you have been to bring hi m t o j us ti ce . Mr. Taylor—l submit to the d ec i s i on o f th e b enc h, and acknowledge that his skill and qualifications as an impostor are unrivalled. Mr. C. R. Forwold, clerk to Messrs. Morland, so licitors in the Old Jewry, then deposed as follows : —my mother kept a lodgin g -h ouse a t N o . 50, Brewer-street, Bast Smithfield, in July, 1849, and the prisoner came to lodge there in that month. When he was in the house about a we e k he applied mother for th e l oan o f s s . 1 gave mother to gi ve t o hi m , an d h e t to he m m e oug o t n h e r yto h m myy afterwards thanked me fur the loan, and in doing so said he had been to Ireland on commission from the Board of Admiralty to see arrangements properly carried cut for some important works there ; that the expenses of the journey had taken away all his spare cash, and he should be inconvenienced until remu nerated by that authority for what he had expended. He remained at board at my mother's house till Christmas, and represented himself personally to me as a captain in the Royal navy, and as h av i ng b een ap pointed to succeed Admiral Beaufort as hydrographer to the Admiralty, and he also stated that he was merely waiting for Admiral B eau f ort t o vaca t e hi s rooms to take possession . of them, a n d r es id e there. At Chris'mas my I:cquamtance with him closed. He then owed my mother between 8/. and 91. for board and lodging, and he represented to me that he should be short of money until he could get his expenses paid and his business settled, that he expected by the 31 of January his bill would be paid by the Admi relty, and also that a sum of money, amounting to 751., which was due to hi aa, would be forthcoming, and he asked me if I could get his acceptance fur 10/. or 121. discounted, that he might pay my mother out of it. Supposing that what he had stated was the fact, I got his bill discounted. He had applied to my mother first, knowing that she would want the balance, and she referred him to me, as being better ac quaint ed with business. When he applied to me I said, " Well, Captain, certainly I do not know a great deal about you, but if Sou give me a reference I shall try and get your bill discounted. A friend of mine holds a bill upon which the sum of 61. 3s. is due, and if you make the bill for Cl. 3s. more than the money . )ou want I dare say I may get it dor.e." He then re ferred me to a person in ILod-lane, through whom, he, raid, he was to receive the 751., an d w h o d escr ib e d him to rue as a gentleman of high honour, and with vrhi,rn he had been acquainted for many years. Under these circumstances I drew a bill for 181. las. in the name of W. C. Burden, who was acquainted with the whole of the trans.aclioe, and the prisoner accepted it in my presence. With that bin I took up the old bill of 6/. 35., and I received 121. 7e. (the difference), and immediately handed it over to the prisoner. I endorsed the bill to make myself respon sible to the discounter, who advanced the money upon my responsibility. Alderman CARDEN—Did you hand that money to him in the belief that he was a captain in the royal navy ? Witness—l had looked in the Navy List, and not finding his name in the list, I mentioned the cir- cumstance to him. He said, " Oh, I can explain that. I am on the list for promotion, and therefore my name is not on the list," giving me to understand that he was at the moment in the state of transition from one rank to the other. I then entertained no doubt that he was Captain Crosby of the Royal Navy. I doubted the statements be had made as to his having to suc ceed Admiral Beaufort. Alderman CARDEN—Was the bill paid ? Witness —lt was paid by me. When the prisoner was speak ing to me about his c laims and expectations, in order to prevent any mistake he produced what he called a certificate from a foreign state, thanking him as Captain Crosby, of the Royal navy, for some service rendered by him. Cross-examined by Mr. Nobler—l believe he paid 51. to my mother out of the amount due to her, let!v ieg about 61. odd due to her, one shilling of which she has never received. A gentleman, who stated that he had been second master in the navy, and that his name was Crosby, here stepped forward and said—" I have no doubt that the letters wr itt en to the Admiralty for the payment of d e bt s w hi c h I nev er contracted prejudiced me considerably with the board. I never have been a captain, and I am the only officer of the name of Crosby in the Royal navy since the year 1826. There were two before that time, but they are both deed. Ido not now belong to the service." Mr. 'Try for—lt was in 1808 or 1809 I was sup posed to have formed my first acquaintance with the " Simon Pure" at the bar.—(A laugh.) Captain Clarke said the prisoner had attempted to " do" him, but without success. The captain was not swore, but the substance of , his representation was, that havin g some ti me ago had a vessel to dis• CLERKENWELL. Mr. James Bishop Houseman, master of the Col legiate- School at Stoke-Newington, and Mr. William Bunting Seymour, one of the ushers, appeared to a summons beture Mr. Combe, charged by Edmund 'ralfourd Gredye aged 12 years, with having been con cerned in assaulting him. Mr. Harvey attended to conduct the prosecution ; and Mr. Lewis for the defence. Mr. Grdye, solicitor, of Stoke-Newington, the father of the boy, also attended, and the authorities of the establishment were likewise present. Mr. Harvey, in opening the case, said that the circumstances being, as they were, connected with a public establishment for the instruction of youth, were of a most unpleasant character, as two assaults had been committed on the son of his client, the one by the master of the school, and the other by the usher. The boy had been in the establishment since List Midsummer, and ha complained to his father of having received some punishment which was objec tionable to the father, unless for real misconduct. The boy, it appeared, found some difficulty in con jugating the Latin verb, and on taking home his ex ercise. book it was found that there was written on one of its pages, " This is one whole day's work." The lather felt grieved and hurt, and wrote on the same leaf, " Which incontestably reflects great discredit upon the tutor, and that the master is as idle as the boy." A communication took place by letter from the father stating that nobody would be capable of conjugating a Latin verb in the time required, and it would appear that the difficulty arose through the dodging the boy abou , , and he had perfectly conjugated the verb. He received a letter in answer, declining to receive the boy after the expi ration of the quarter. Subsequently, on the 3d of September, the pupil was assaulted by the defendants. The usher (Seymour) inquired who it was that wrote the matter in the exercise-book in reference to the conjugation of the verb. He replied, "My father," when the usher said, " Then he is as great a fool as you are." The boy smilcd, and he struck the boy on the face, which caused a contusion and abrasion of the skin. He remonstrated, and said it was his father's desire that he wai not to be beaten ; if he was, he was to go home; and subsequently the usher held him whilst the defendant Mr. House-man caned him so severely that he bore masks upon his person. He urged that in this instance there had been no mis conduct to justify the conduct of the usher Seymour, and afterwards that of the master, Mr. Houseman. He called— Master Talfourd Gedye, the complainant—l took my exercise- boor home, and showed it to my father. Mr. Seymour first pencilled in the book " This is one whole day's work," and Mr. Houseman afterwards inked it over. My father wr,:te the other words al luded to. I took the book back to school and laid it cn Mr. Houseman's desk. A boy named Noah showed it to the master. He smiled when Mr. Sey mour said "Pa" was as great a fool as I was, and he struck me twice on the face. He took the hook from me and left the room, when Mr. Houseman came up with a cane, and said I had been impud en t t o M r . Seymour. I said I had not; and he said I must be caned. I said, "Pa " would not let me be caned. I tried to leave the school, but was prevented by Mr. Houseman, who ordered the boys to keep the door, when he began to cane me. Mr. Sz. , 3mour held tne'by one arm and Mr. Houseman by the other, while he caned me. He then told me to tale my books and leave the school. I afterwards felt pain, and could hardly walk home. Ointment was rubbed on my head by my mama. By Mr. Lewis—l walked home. Mr. COMBE here said a schoolmaster had a right to exercise reasonable and proper correction to a pupil. The question was as to excess. In that case the matter ought to go to the sessions. Mr. Lewis con — tended that there had been no excess, and continued his ero,is-examination. Boy—My master did not tell me to show the writ ing in the book to my father. Did not go to a doctor. My pa did not tell me to show his writing in the book to my master. Told me I might let the boys see it if they liked. Did not point out the writing to the boys. Mr. CoMBE—The boy himself proves that the father wrote insolence to the master in the book ; for such it was, and the case is one for the sessions. Mr. Lewis remarked that his clients were the re presentatives of a public establishment, and ordering them to find bail would be a slur, and the pupils might as well leave the school if such a course were adopted. He had evidence to produce, and they would much rather have the case decided here. The boy continued—Mr Houseman spoke to me in a mild, gentlemanly manner. The stripes were not gentle; they were very hard. Did not say, '' My father is a lawyer, and he will serve you." Don't think the mark on my forehead was caused by the cane. Could not say how it was done. The father (excitedly and in a loud tone)—l beg, Sir, you will not put words into the boy's mouth. Let him give his evidence fairly. Boy—l never saw any other boy caned in the school. They were usually caned below. I did apply to my master, but he refused to give me any information on the subject of the lesson. Could not say how many stripes I received—five or seven. Mr. Lewis—Be has before sworn to 14 or 15. Waddington and Turner, officers of the court, taw the boy when the summons was applied for; there were three marks on the forehead, and a stripe on his thigh, 7 or 8 inches long, as if from a cane. Mr. Lewis, after remarking on the father's letter to Mr. Houseman insinuating that he was as idle as the tutor, &c., contended that the boy was only reason ably chastised for bis indolence, and his father ought to have thanked his clients, instead of exhibiting his feeling as he had done in the matter. The boy smiled i❑ derision at his master, and the question was whether the master of a collegiate school was to put up with such conduct. Mr. Gtdye was extremely excited, and said in a loud tone that his son had been most severely treated. Ile then bore marks of violence on his person, and he suggested that he should be stripped and examined by the magistrate and all present. Mr. Harvey had seen the marks, and could give evidence, but of that he was deprived through his being his advocate. his frequent interrupions caused great delay in the pru ceedings. At length an apology Has sugg...sted. The def.ndants, however, would not express regret for ex cess of violence, but said that if any excess had inten tionallybeen infl:cted, they were sorry. Mr. COMBE said this was equal to an apology ; and the worthy magistrate's opinion induced Mr. Gedye to accept it, and thus the matter ended. !FORS till'- STREET. Edward Denman, who stood charged with an as sault of an indecent des:criptien upon Mrs. Emma liirknuss, the wife of a commercial traveller in Fel lowes-street, Kingsland, surrendered to his bail for final examination. The prosecutrix, who fainted twice before the case was called on for hearing, was allowed to be seated while her former deposition was read over, to which she now added some further particulars of too dis gusting a neture to admit of publication, and com plained that from her peculiar and delicate condition at the time, the scandalous treatment to which she had been subjected had produced such a shock to her system that she had been seriously ill ever since. The defendant loudly protested against the impor tation of any fresh facts into the case, which he had formerly believed to have been formally closed, and had he been aware that the magiatrate would have permitted such a course he should have provided him self with counsel to protect his interests. Mr. HAmminn intiinated that the course complained of was perfectly regular and in strict accordance with his duty. The accused, who expressed his intention to re serve his defence, was committed for trial, but libe rated upon the same hail which had already been ac cepted for his appearance. WANDS 5 ORTII. _ _ Sarah Beale, a well-dressed and exceedingly mak looking woman, 40 years of age, whose parents have resided at 8, James street, Larlihqll-late, Clapham, for 35 years past, and bear a very excellent character, the father being a gardener, was brought up for a third time on a remanded charge of obtaining goods by fraud, end committing a felony. The following is the substance of the evidence given at the various examinations before Mr. Bea don :—Uri Tuesday, the 3d of Sep:ember, Yaks constable Fletcher, 48 IT, took the prisoner into cus tody in the Union-road, Clapham, for obtaining from a fif , raoni, , ,er, named Skei. - zg; ; a dozen of oysters, tor Mr. M«rupresF, urgeon. Tho prisoner had previously represented herself as a servant to Mr. Gould, Eagle House, IVandsworth-road, and obtained from the same party some shrimps and bloaters, which statement was found to be a fabrication, and Mrs. Skeggs's boy re cognising the prisoner, followed her, and saw her pass Mr. Mempress's, and then gave her into custody. Whilst at the station a 3 oung man named Ashby, shy pman to Mr. Toth!, a butterman in the Wands - worth-roaii, recognised the prisoner as having, on the 30. h of August, obtained two pounds of butter in the name of Mrs. Blade, Thurlow Cottage, and ordered one shilling's worth of eggs to be taken to the house that morning, which was done, and the fraud discovered. The next fraud traced to the prisoner obtaining, on the same day, from the shop of Mr. B:ocks, chemist and druggist, a dovn of carbo nate of soda and tartaric acid powders, and a bottle of powder for making lemonade. These articles were also alleged to be for the use of Mrs. Blade, of Thurlow Cottage. The constable afterwards went to the prisoner's parents' house, and searched her boxes, when he found 17 duplicates relating to wearing apparel and other props rty, and also fiund a pair of shoes, which the prisoner had got from Messrs. Drew, hoot and shoemakers, Clapham, under pretence that they were for the housemaid at Mr. Howell's, opposite the Windmill Tavern, Clapham. It also appeared that the prisoner had been in the service of Mr. Noel, of Clapham-road, butcher, for four or five months, as nurse to his father, and had robbed him extensively ; but he being a bachelor was not aware of it, until informed by the constable. Tte robbery of Mr. Neal and three cases of fraud were select« d, out of more than 20 acts of fraud and felony which had been perpetrated by the prisoner, who, without making auy defence, was fully com mitted for trial at the Central Criminal Court. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. MID-KENT AND DOVER. A general conterence of the principal landowners of East and West Kent was held yesterday in the large room of the Star Hotel, Maidstone, for the purpose of electing a board of trustees on behalf of the great body of landowners as promoters of a Bill in the next session of Parliament, seeking powers to construct a direct line of railway through Mid-Kent to Maidstone, and through North K e nt to D ove r, as a public highway, to be worked under the supervision and control of the Commissioners, being owners of property continguous to the railway. Mr. Matthew Belt, the High Sheriff, presided on the occasion, and explained in a very lucid manner the novel features of the plan and the peculiar advantages that will accrue to the lands and property in the several parishes through which the railway will pass. The meeting was attended by a large number of the leading gen tlemen of the county, and letters were read from the Lord-Lieutenant, Mr. Pemberton Leigh, Mr. Deedes, M.P., Sir John Lubbock, Mr. George Warde Norman, &c., expressing their desire to co-operate in securing the adoption of a practicable plan for obtaining a direct railway com munication between Londe nand Maidstone and Dover, so as to connect the principal towns in the country together. It was stated that the requisite capital to the extent of 2,000,0001. had been contracted for by way of loan to the landowners at four per cent. in terest per annum, with a moiety of any surplus pro fits as a contingent bonus, to be secured on the credit of the tolls, and by a contingent guarantee , to a li mited amount upon the credit of the lands within the boundaries of such parishes as will have power to as sess the railway in aid of their local rates. The pub lic necessity for the undertaking was shown to have been established before two Parliamentary tribunals, and the novel feature of the plan, which coesists in its being a return to the old system of public highways, under the supervision of public auditors appointed by the couT.ty, appeared to meet the cordial approval of the landowners present. After a lengthened discussion, in which Earl Stanhope, Sir Brooke W. Brydges, Colonel Austen, Mr. Bradley Dyne, Sir John Tylden, Mr. Rice, M.P., Mr. C. Wykeham Martin, and other gentle men took part, a board of twenty trustees were ap pointed, with power to add to their number, to consider the details and ect on behalf of the meet ing, as they may deem fit for the general benefit of the company. Oa the motion of Earl STANHOPE the cordial thanks of the meeting were given to the chairman. The meeting broke — up after expressing a very de cided opinion that an entirely new system of rail way control and audit must be introduced beforc: the just requirements of the public can be fairly sa tisfied. HAYNAU'S TASTE OF BARCLAY AND CO.'S ENTIRE. By this time the reader is aware of the brewing extraordinary which took place the other day at Bar clay and Perkins's—the storm brewed at that estab lishment by General Ilaynau. Haynau, in the public eye, stands branded with deeds of the basest atrocity —the merciless hanging of brave men, and the das tardly flogging of noble women. He is a slandered man, of course. No demon, even, but the meanest as well as most malignant in devildom, would have perpetrated cruelties so execrable and infamous. This gallant officer and amiable gentleman goes about, the object of universal hatred, through (doubtless) a mere deception which has been unaccountably practised on the newspapers, and disseminated by their means. With his detestable character pinned to his back— albeit bold as brass in conscious innocence—did Baron llaynau go on Wednesday last week to visit Barclay and Perkins's brewery. Armed with the breast-plate of an untainted heart, he wrote his name—little thinking what a name it was—in the visitors' book. The pen might as well have been a lighted match, and the page a train leading to a powder-barrel. What was the consequence ? " His presence be came known all over the brewery in less than two minutes, and before the general and his companions had crossed the yard, nearly all the labourers and dra)nen were out with brooms and dirt, shouting out, Down with the Austrian butcher,' and other epithets of rather an ale:ming nature to the general. He was soon covered with dirt, and perceiving some of the men about to attack him, ran into the street to Beekside, followed by a large mob, consisting of the brewers' men, coalheavers, and others, armed with all sorts rf weapons, with which they belaboured the general.' The Baron fondly imagined himself a simple lion ; and had no idea that he would be re ceived as a tiger—the beast with which he is con founded by a vulgar error. But had he really been the unmanly miscreant he was mistaken for, how poetically beautiful would have been the termination of his adventure :—" He ran in a frantic manner"— frantically as a women-whipper might be expected to run :—"He ran ie a frantic manner along Banledde, un til he came to the George public-house, when, forcing the doors open, he rushed in and proceeded upstairs into one of the bed-rooms, to the utter astonishment of Mrs. Benfield, the landlady, who soon discc vered his name, and the reason of his entering her house. The furious mob rushed in after him, threatening to do for the ' Austrian butcher,' but fortunately for him the house is very old fashioned, and contains a vast number of doors, which were all forced open, except that of the room in which the ge neral was concealed." If—only if, mind—Baron Haynau were indeed the Haynau of the journals— how delicious to behold the brave general that whip ped the fair sex, taking shelter from chastisement buicath a woman's petticoat! What a sight for the shade of Batthyani to see him lie there, " covered with dirt," but more thickly bedaubed with ignominy ! Happily the injured innocent escaped with his life. The police came timeously to the rescue, and " a police galley was at the wharf at the time, into which he was taken and rowed towards Somerset-house, amidst the shouts and execrations of the mob." It is added, " Fee was conveyed over the water in a most deplorable state, the clothes having been actually torn off his back, besides several very severe blows having been iallicted on him." Every rightly feeling mind must condole with General Haynau on the treatment which he has experienced from being so very unmerit edly regarded as a diabolical savage, and a disgrace to human nature. Messrs. Barclay and Perkins, it is stated, have been investigating the matter, with a view to discover the rinhleaders in the attack on the gallant general, who was misunderstood to have hanged heroes and flogged ladies. Even bad there been no misunderstanding in the case, the conduct of the draymeu would certainly have been illegal. Nor would it have been exactly justifiable morally, for, as we all know, it is a duty not to let our blood boil over under any provocation, and we ought to preserve a philosophical calmness even in the presenc -of Herod fresh frcm the slaughter of the innocents, or of Nero red handed from his mother's murder. Here's to your speedy amendment, Baron Haynau, and lest new acquaintance should be forgot, perhaps you will pleege, us in Barclay, Peikins, and Co.'s Entire.— Punch. A HEROIC BOY.--On Friday a lad about thirteen years of age, was driving his motLer (Mrs. Humphery) and rive small children, with the nurse, and when at the lake, this side of Torryburn, the horse rushed into the water, the bank being very steep, and they were all engulphed beyond their depth. The mother, with her infant in her arms, sup.; ported herself for an instant but sank, when feeling her foot touching sometimes, by exertion she rose to the surface, and grasped a branch held out by some men, who, providentially, by this tirn , were present. The lad seized two of his sisters, but finding them two heavy, called for help ; he was dragged on shore, he being the only one who could swim. Ile again struck out, and seeing another of his sisters in the waggon, at the bottom of the lake, went down and rescue I her in time (though she was insensible) to preserve life One more child was still floating on the water, supported by its clothes: the noble brother again dashed in, restoring this fourth one by his cuurage and exertions. The nurse was saved I-y grasping a stick held out by men on the shore. Thus a lad, thirteen years of age, saved the lives of four children.—St. John (11'. B.) News. , MANCHESTER, SEPT, 10.
