Lord NAAS moved the sec,, , nd reading of this Mr. WILSON said that he never rose with greater reluctance to pwrt,rin a great public duty in the hou.e than on this occa , ion, when, after five years close con nection with a body of men whose merits had been acknowledged by all, and the discharge of whose duties had been such as to secure for them riot only the re,:pect, but the admiration of every one assoc:a'ed with them in the public service, he was Compelled to opp-se the second reading of the noble lerd's bill, which, at first eight, ap peared to be an enactment highly important and bend• ficial to the public service. He acknowledged that the course he was pursuing gave him great pain, but, nevertheless, he should shrink from the important duty he owed to the house if, in his official position, he were not to take every care and trouLle to bring the whole i - :f the facts that he considered necessary before the house for a perfect understanding of the question, in order that whatever decision the houu may arrive at it may be done with a full knowledge of the circurris!ances. The impressions ur de r which this ques tion had arisen into one of great public importance, and had become what might be ttrmed a great public grie vance, were, he believed, to be traced in the first in stance io a belief that the contributions of the civil ser vants of the Crown towards the pensions they were entitled to under the Act of Parliament were con- siderably larger than, wa • necessary to provide for that land, and tbat indirectly tl e State had already made, and would in future make, certain deductions from these contributions. Wbetever was the nature of the contract entered into be..ween the civil servants of the Crown and the Crown itself, he was prepared to adm i t if that charge was established, that it would be policy on the part of the house to relinquish the charge so far as the rates were concerned sufficient only to provide for these pensions, If, therefore, it could be shown that the charges now made were t.-o high, he coi,sidered that whatever were the terms of the act of 1834, and the contract, or implied contract, under which they accepted office, they were entitled to a corresponding deduction. The next ground on which these impressions bad obtained currency in the public mind was that th-re bad been a breach of engagements on the part of the Crown with the civil servants, in "moon as they contemplated that a fund would hays been set apart for them, which by compound interest would have produced a surplus entirely at their (ha p-mai for any purpose they might think fit. Now, a more grave charge than a breach of engagement be tween the Crown and its 16,000 civil servants could not be imagined, but the question bad been disposed of by the Commiesionerg, who, in th eir report , agreeing with the Committee of the R ouse of Commons said last year that. it had been clearly a n d definitely decided that ther e was no breach of engagement. It was the duty of the house to see that the salaries of th e public servats had not been settled or reduced by these deduc tions, so as to deprive them of the p rospect of a future sup!rannuation allowance, and it the ques. tion rested on the sufficiency of the sa l ar i es paid, he could show that w:thin the last four or five year, th ere bad been a revision of salaries in almost eve:y depart mint of the State. The investigation had been most liberally and carefully made, and the result had been a large increase in the annual charges. The salaries paid in the Inland Revenue, Gusto 'DR, and Pest-office departments in 1852, were 2,167,0001,, which had in creased in 1856 to 2,460,0001., making a difference of 289,0001. The right bon. gentleman then proceeded to contrast the salaries and pervious paid by the Bank of England and the Government ; and with reference to the foriser he said that a clerk of 18 years of age re ceived M the Bank of England 601. a-year ;19 years of sge, 701.; 20 yearn of age, 801.; f r om 21 to 29 21 years of age, 100/ ; years of ge it increased 51. a-year, when he received 1401.; and from that it increased up to 45 years of age, when he received a maximum salary of 2501 In the Government offices a much higher scale was paid. The lowest salary paid was 901. a-year, and in many offices in London it was not lower than 100/. a.year ; sad although it might be true th a t the Bank of England - FliE SUN, LOND ?N raußsnity EVENI‘G s JULY 23, 185 7, ; , did pensions to their worn- ost servants, without die • unction, yet if they leolied into the question, it would be found that the public servants were infinitely better paid than the clerks of the Bank of England. Any coat i hints that the civil servants hal to make relative to their salaries had only to be laid before the beads of departments, when they would comOunicate them to the treasury, who were at all times ready to con si ler them liberal y and carefully. (Hear, hear.) There was a great difference between a revision of salaries and the indiscriminate increase of salaries proposed by the bill, and therefore it was that he could not accede to its proposition. One complaint against these deductions was that the moneys were not constituted into a fond, but he could not understand what difference it made to thepnblicservants whether these moneys were kept apart or not, because by the Act of Parliament no public offi cer could receive more under a fund than under Govern ment security, and there was no reason for saying any public servant l'ad not received the whole amount con templated, or that could be given under the Act of Par liament. The right hon. gentleman then entered into the statement of the civil servants, that if a fund bad been established it would have increased by compound interest so as to leave a surplus. Such he said would not be the case, and in order to prove his assertion, be entered into a calculation he had made, which showed that instead of an increase under such circumstances, there would be a deficiency, and in the course of his re marks, be said, that in 1834 the whole of the pensions paid amounted to 358,0001., and for compensation for abolished offices, 692 0001. Since then, it had gone on increasing, and instead of 358,000/ , a. Fetid in 1834, it had increased to 530.0001. this year ; and compensations from 692,0001. in 1834, to 830,0001. this year. So that Co far from their diminishing, year by year, as might have been expected from the diminished rates of pen sions, the amount of pensions had considerably increased; and whereas the whole amount of abatement was 74,0001., the increase within the last four years in pensions alone was more than equal to the whole of that amount. In 1851 the pensions of the civil servants amounted to 509,000/., and last year to 589,000/., giving an increase in four years of 72,0001. against 74,0001., contributions which showed that so far from the deduction being more than equiva lent for the pensions paid, they were not equivalent to it. The right hon. gentleman next referred t > the dis tinction made between the servants who entered the ser vice before 1829, and those since 1844, and read extracts trom the commissioners' report to show that it was founded in justice. He contended, on the whole, that no injustice was done the civil servants by the course now pursued, though he admitted there were many ano malies that required to be got rid of. To give peneions to the civil servants of the Crown, without their contri buting towards it, wool f open up a broad and serious question. At present the half-pay of the army amounted to 568,0001., which was a much smaller sum than was paid to the 16,000 civil sesveets whom it was proposed by this bill to give the right of pension ; and if the latter were permitted to take pensions without contribu tions, he thought, the army wold have a rignt to demand that their claims be considered. He was inclined to believe that the agitation that hat arisen on this question was owing to the pressure of the income tax during the past two or three years, the civil service looking upon there payments in a dlffarentliebt to other men. Tile amount being deducted from the salaries of the civil service, it was looked upon by them as a deduction of their sala ries, whereas others upon it as a part of their annual expenditure. Tney would, however, be relieved this year more than one-half in that respect. After some further remarks the righthon. gentleman said that there were no grounds for the adoption of the present bill. It would leave the present anomalies untouched, as well as introduce more than at present existed, and consequently fail in removing the dissatisfaction that now prevailed. The Government, he admitted, felt that the question could not be allowed te stand where it was, but he asked the house, whether it was decent, pending an inquiry that bore on this question, to force upon the Government the expenditure of public money without at the came time seeing that they secured the removal of all those evils incident to the question. This was a question not against the Government, but between the representatives and and their con.tiuencies—the tax payers of the coun.ry —on a hose behalf the Government resisted the proposed increase of expenditure. He proposed the second read ing of the bill this day three months. Mr. CLIME said that this was a question of insurance or deduction from the salaries of the civil service, and added that much of the present dissatisfaction bad arisen from the ambiguity of the act of Parliament. He advocated the cause of the civil servants of the Crown, who were only asking f>r what was due to them, and be had no fear ct receiving the support of his constituents for the cause be pursued. He complained of the Chan cellor of the Exchequer and Mr. Wilson admitting the defective nature of the present act without endeavouring to remedy it, and unless the Government gave an assur ance that they would remedy the complaints nf the civil service he should vote for the second reading of the bill. Mr. WEGUELIN supported the bill, and eondeinted the system of deductions from salaries for the forma ion of superannuation fund , . He thought the civil service had no cause to complain in strict justice, but it was the duty of the Government and Parliament to see that jus tice was done to all classes of the civil service. Wbat the civil set vice asked for was an alteration in the Act of 1834. He said that the average of salaries paid at the Bank of England was higher than had been quoted. The average salaries for 1856 was 1951. Whilst those of the civil servants only amounted to 1471. pr annum. Mr. WILSON said he did not take the lui,kor eala ri=s of the Bank of England into his calculations. Mr. WEGUELIN said the hon. genii quan had a strange way of taking an average for drawing a com parison. He had taken the high salaries in one service, and the low salaries of the other. In his (Mr. Wegue hee) calculation was included the salaries of all, ineted ing the porters in the Bank of England. Then the only deduction made from the salaries was for a widow's fund. He supported the report of the commissioners and condemned the conduct of the Government in this respect, which was unworthy that of a Whig Goverr latent, and much less that of the enlightened dictator ship under which they at present txsted. (Laughter.) Sir F. BARING considered it was time this ques tion should be settled in a fair and liberal He obj cted to the bi 1, because it would 11,4 ,et,.le the question, from its only dealing with a small portion of the recommenda' •is of h s commissioners rep, rt. If it passed it would create great dissatisfaction with the lower classes of the ser , i te. Another grave nbjection to the bill was, that it proposed a large increase of salaries to public servants in a most injudicious manner, and at at a time wh,n it was not required. It proposed an increase of 5 per cent. on the higher cl.tss of servant, but only 2k per cent. on the lower class servants. This fact was kept rather in the background, because it did not tally with what they had heard so much of ltt , ly viz. the con.lition of the pour public servants , (H e a r .) Mr.f S. FITZGERALD supported the claims of the civil servants of the C 7 E.vn. He thought the till of t'tie noble lord would increase the efficiency of the tou')lic service, and make it one harrno:lions whole. He was ready to flee his constituents on the question of support ing the extra expense the bid would entail for the ex r advantages it would give the Ea rvica, Mr. W. WILLIAMS, amidst cries of divide, , said that his constituents would be affected to a large extent by this bill, and added that it was the duty of the Government to have presented the Parliament a well digested seberne for the settlement of the question. lie olj-3cted to an increase cf 5 per cont. on the salaries of civil servants. Mr. RICH, amidst the impatience of tho house, op• posed the second yowling of th, bill. The learned gen tleman spoke amidst cries of divide, and other expres sioas of divide, t;11 ten minutes to 4 o'clock, when by the forms of the house retitive to day sittings the debate was suspended amidst 1010 groins.

(MEETING THIS DAY.) A public meeting of the electors of the City of London was held to-day, at the London Tavern, t consider the steps to be taken in consequence of the rejection of the Oaths Bill by the House of Lords. There was a very full attendance. The chair was taken by W. G. PRESCOTT, Esq., who, in opening the proceedings, said they were met there that day to assert their adherence to the prin ciple of freedom of e l .ection. (Cheers.) He would not detain the meeting by making any lengthened observations, but call upon the Baron Rothschild to address them. (Cheers.) nil Baron ROTHSCHILD then came forward and was received with loud applause. He said when be was last returned a representative of the city of London, he promised that, in the event of the re jection of the bill for the removal of the Jewish Disabilities by the House of Lords, on the very first opportunity afforded he would resign the seat to which they had elected him. He was there that day to fulfil that promise ; and, in order to do so, it was his intention that evening to- take the ne cessary steps, and the consequence would be that a new writ would be issued for the City, and it was for that meeting to determine what course they would adopt. The legal authorities of the Crown, he had to inform them, were still of the same opinion that they had been for years. Sir Richard Bethell, when Mr. Bethell, gave it as his opinion that Alderman Salomons, having taken the oaths of supremacy and allegiance, was entitled to take his seat in the House of Com mons. That was his opinion years ago, and it was so at the present day, but he now thought it would place the Commons in conflict with the Lords if they allowed the Jews to take their seats with out an Act of Parliament was passed. That he thought was a matter of secondary consideration. (Cheers.) It was a question entirely for the House of Commons to decide, whether their power was secondary to any other. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He, as well as many other unprejudiced persons, was of opinion that the power of the House of Commons was supreme—(cheers)—and to the opi nion of the mass of the community he found op posed a section of the Home of Lords—(hear, hear)—a set of persons who seldom came among-t I the people—bear, hear)—and who did very little else than attend to their own pleasure and amusement. (Immense cheering.) The present House of Commons, he felt certain, was in favour of the removal of the Jewish disabilities, and if they determined to go on with• the struggle with determination and vigour, success was in the end certain. It was his opinion, that in the event of the rejection of Lord J. Russell's bill, the House ' of Commons would try to seat him by resolu- tion, ai they were determined not to forego their rights and privileges. (Cheers.) Ho begged to thank them for the patienc3 with which they had listened to him, and begged to say, in conclusion, that be appeared before them as a candidate—(en thusiastic cheering)—for the representation of the City of London in Parliament. Mr. MORLEY came forward to move the first re solution. It was t, th 9 effect that Baron Roths chi'd having declared his intention of resigning his seat in Par'iament, and also declared his intention of again offering himself as a candidate, this meeting pledges. itself to use its utmost en deavours to secure his return as a testimony of their adherence to the principle of civil and re ligious freedom. Mr. BENNOCH seconded the resolution in a very energetic speech, in the course of which he said their principal opponents were 30 recusant peers, who, if they did not listen to reason, must be made to listen to something else less palatable. (This of servation was received with immense applause.) A gentleman in the room advised the meet ing to wait until a decision was come to with re• ppect to Lord J. Russell's bill, but his remarks were received with disapprobation. After a few words from Mr. Crawford M.P. the chairman put the resolution to the meeting for adoption, which was carried amidst loud cheering. Mr. W. J. H.r..m. moved the second resolution; which was as follows :—That the meeting is of opinion that it is the duty of Government, sup ported by the generous confidence of the liberal , party as a body, to forward by its entire influence the immediate settlement of a question, which in the present as in a former Parliament has been de clared by the large majority of the House of Com mons to be indispensable to the complete accom plishment of civil and relig'ons freedom. Mr. PRITCHARD (High Bailiff of Southwark), in seconding the resolution, urged the meeting to con tinue their exertions for but a short time longer, and success would be certain, and by so doing they would tear away the last rag of persecution. (Cheers ) The resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. 'AYRTON, M.P. for the Tower Hamlet., moved a vote of thanks to the chairman, which was carried unanimously, and the meeting separated.

PPRES6IO.Y OF GAMBLING-HOC S S. Yesterday, at the Marlborough-street Police 0.31 , e, A' r.tham Levy Gl—olinan, chlrged as the keeper cf a gamt4ing-houie, No. 28, Covently street, and Chas. W. Stewav, (.19or-keeper, wi'h 13 other persons found. in the horse when the !Alice made an entry, were brouulit before Mr. Bingham for final exam nat'on. The defendants were re minded from the previous examinat on, in order to give time to Mr. Bingham to consider his judg ment, the proceedings being under a new act of Parliament. Mr. Lewis, of Ely-placr., was for the defendant=. Mr. Bingham. said—The defendants GooJm.3n and S`ewatt were brought to Viis court on the 15th July, charged with keeping and using a room for the purpose of unlawful gaming. It appeared that the room in que-tion a as an inner apartment, aft( r passing through a shop, over the dour of which was the inicriptiin, "Abraham Guolman, licanse dealer in tobacco." That f r the last two months, during which the shop bad been watched, lit le to bac-o or n , ne had been sold, and that no stock of tobacco was found when the police entered on.the 15th. At half-past one Oat miming a policeman tappe.l at the shop door. Goodman's kon came out through the door of the inner apartment into the shop, and seeing the police through the window, instead of advancing to open the door, retreated to the inner apao twebt. The shop was forced by the police, who proceeding to the inner apartment, found there fiftean pe , sons, some of them smoking cigars they had brought with them, and Goodman with a dice-box and dice in his hand, a backgammon board being before him. Several pairs of d'ce were found in the apartment and a ijoining sh togethei with some dirty cards. A table in the apartment was covered with three cloths, one of them nailed on to i., and a curtain prevented any view from the shop into the apartment. The pers , ns assembled had enteied iu the course of the three or four hours which preceded the visit of the police, and none of them had purchased in the shop any tobacco or ci g►rs. One of the visitors who had fr, quented the plies brought a stranger will him, who was not admitted till the introducer vouched him as a friend. Three of the fifteen persons taken into custody were called as witnesses under the act 17 and 18 Vic., c. 38, which has recently come in•o operation. Two of them said they had arrived only half-an-hour be fore the entrance of the polic-, and that during that tine nothing was played but backgammon, which is not an unlawful game. The third refused to be ex amined, and preferred to submit to the penalty of a recusant witness. By till 8 and 9 Vic., c. 109, where any dice, t tbles, or ether instruments of gaming, are found in any h•iuw:e suspected to be used as a common gatning-house, it shall be evidence, until the c wintry be made to appear, that such house ►s used as a common gaming -house. Now dice hav ing been found i❑ Go dinau's house, suspected to be used as a common gaming-hou , e, has he made the contrary of that suspicion appear ? Assuming th-►t backgammon was played for half-an-hour air thereabouts out of the three or four hours dur- in which the company was assembled, that cir cumstance seems to me to confirm rather than to negative the inference which the stall' e peremptorily compels a magistrate to draw from the finding of dice in a snspeetrd house. It is dif ficul to conceive how 15 persona could play back gammon with one beard, while it is obvious that two persons might be so employed as a blind for 10 or 12 Whets engiged at an nnla,wful game upon a table well muffled with a tripe covering. And that the house was not unjustly suspected suffi ciently appeais from the shop-front announcing a business not conducted in earnest ; from the retreat of the son into an inner room on the sight of the police ; from the muffled table, as well as the dice found in that room ; from the hesitation to admit a stranger till vouched for by a friend, and from the refusal, even under penalty, of the most respec table of the persons apprehended t 3 give evidence. The punishment for the offence of keeping a cum mon gaming-house is a fine not exceeding 5001., or imprisonment not exceeding one year, at the dis cretion of the magistrates. As Goodman is here for the first time, and as the company assembled in his house consisted not of minors, apprentices, or s(,r vants, who are too frequently tempted be the fac . - lides of such a house to make free with their em ployer's property, but was comeosed of veteran idlers, who, perhaps, might be left te compass each others ruin without much loss to society, a fine of 501. only will, as a,commencernent, be imposed on Goo iman, and 10/. on Stewart, wh acted as door keeper. In default of peyment Goodman to be imprisoned six weeks, Stewart 10 days. Goodman said there were several backgammon boards in his h else when the police entered.. Mr. Lewis said the dei , zon would be appealed against, and it would be fur the magistrate t..) fix the amount of bad. Bail for Goidnaaq was fixel at two sureties in 1001. each. The otiier defendants were discharged. Vale of Neath.. Waterfd. & Kilkenny) Waterford&Limeriek West Cornwall Wost End of London and Crystal Palaco Do. A all Do. B all West London all I Do.

John William Taylor and William James Haul' y were charged at Marlhot - oughstreat Police Court, yesterday, with b-ing in a common gaming house, 24, Little Newport-sti est. Superiutende..t Hinnan, C division, accompanied by liispector Lester and same constabLis, went about one o'clock on Tuesday to the house, which had . the outward app-•arauce of a tobacc)nist's. Witmai, who was in a cab with Le.- t-”., saw Hand ley standing on the pavement before the shop, and he took him info custody. On going into the shop he found Taylor behind the counter, and ha took him into custody. In some drawers he found re ceip-s for rents and gas in the name of Taylor, and Taylor a•lm:tted he was the proprietor of ihe shop. Behind the shop was a room, the door of which was fastened. He examined the fastenings, and found a wire and a hook by which the door could be un fastened from the shop. Thera was a I e'l iu the back room, the wire of wh•cii Ins catried to the s'reet door. _ _ Inspector Lister, 0 division, found on Handley a betting-book, having roferenos to races to come off and entries of bets. In tiie drawer ofa cab'e in the hack room he found a quantity of betting cards for races this year. Police-conAable Shillingfortb, 219 A, went with another constable into the shy on the 14th inst., and, while purchasing a cigar, heard a persol ask the odds on a particular horse, and saw Taylor book the bet. Handley looked over the book, and said " It's all right." The man gave a sovereign to Taylor, who handed it to Handley. He had seen 5U persons at lerst go into the shop th-it morn ing, several of whom he knew were besting men. Had visited the shop that morning, and heir 1 a man ask Taylor the odds on a horse, and a be; of 20 to 1 was laid, the man paying Taylor a sovereign. Police-c - mstablo Crisp, 382 A, corroborated the above evidence.. Police sergeant Silvetton, C division, had seen Handley standing at the door of the shop. Handley knew he was a constable, and when he passed the shop, he had seen Handley touch the wire which communictted with the bell in the inner room. Had seen 50 or 60 betting men go into the house in a day, and had seen about a dozen go in that morning. The defendants denied that the shop was used for betting, or that any bets had been made with them. The defendant Taylor was fined 301. for keying, and Handley for asiiving, in keeping a bitiing house. They intimated their intention to appeal. A SOLICITOR AND HIS CLERK DROWNED. A painful event occurred on Thursday morning, at Carr Mill darn, a lerge reservoir of water situate on the estate of Sir Robert T. Gerard, Bart , and midway between St. Helen's and Billings. M r . S. Gaskell, a solicitor, at St. Helen's, and his clerk, an intelligent little boy, named George Dixon, about 14 years old, went to fish with rod and line at the dam, early on Thursday morning, accom panied by the brother of the ferener, Mr. Allanson Gaskell, surgeon, who, shortly after partaking of some luncheon in a little hut there, about eight o'clock, left them to visit his patients. In the afternoon, Mr. 'Allan,on Gaskell became alarmed at his brother's prolonged absence, and about three o'clock he went again to the dam, where he saw his brother's hat, floating on Vie water and the bay's clothing lying on the embankment close by. At the top end of the dam, which at that point be comes narrow, and in the centre -deep, lay side by side the two dead bodies of Mr. S Gaskell and his clerk. They were drawn out with the grappling irons, the former with all his clothes on, aed a strong line, probably used for catching pike, tightly wrapped tound his arms and body, and attach- d to the wrist of the boy, who was naked. The hat was found stillfl oa ti ng , and near the spot where the bodies were discovered were found a rod and line, and a fish caught at the end cf the line. No _evi dence as to how the distressing accident happened was adduced before the coroner at the inquest held on Friday, but there is uo doubt that the opini on formed by the jury is correct, namely that th 3 fish having drawn the rod from the embankment, th e boy undres-ed and went into the water to recover the rod, having the strong line fas'ened to his wrist, and held by Mr. Gaskell ; that the bey, getting near the centre, suddenly plunged over head, and Mr. Gaskell rushed in to save him, when he got his arms entangled with the cord, aitd thus toth we re drowned. The coroner's jury returned a verdict of " Accidental • death."—Liverpool Mercu y. THE L ITB TRIAL AT EDINBURGH. THE VERDICT AND THE APPLAUSE. In an article on the trial of Madeline Sti,ith, the Gateshead Observer rf 11141 ks :—" The E huburgh audience, thouizh the Lord Justice Clerk enjoined then, on the re urn •of the jury, to refrain from. any outbreak of feeling, whatever the v(rdict mi g ht be, bur,t into loud and unseemly applause, which was only stilled by the arrest of cote of the offenders. That any lively feelir.g of commiserati:.n should be entertained towards the s Try paramour of thy pri soner was not to be expected ; but it says little for the moral sense of an Edinbur4h audience that their sympathies ran wild in favour of the unhappy woman at the bar, whose letters hod been read in their ears, and whose innozence of murder we are entitled both by judge and jury to doubt. Surely they too must have taken poison, to adulterate their moral aspect and 'give then wind.'"

Mr. William P. Ltird, L'Ang-list's employer in in Dundee, in a letter to the Dundee Advertiser, replies to certain remarlis hizatd-d by the Rev; ,;e rge &Milan concerning the character of the un fortunate Frenchman, and supplies the follo*ing particulars relative to the eirimr.of the deceased. He says : " The history of L'Angelier is soon tAcl.--• his father, a very respectable individual and t ather e celebrated nurseryman, die 3, and leaves a widow and young family Pierre, the eldest son, is sent to Edinbu gh by his mother in 1842, at the age of sixteen, to improve himself in the profession c f his father, wi h a view that he might soon go back and take his father's business. For a very praiseworthy action which he did for the interest of his employ ere, very soon after his arrival, he is taken from his humble position in the nursery and placed behind the counter of the shop, where his principal em ployment was selling flowers and flower seeds. Th- 10 situation of tiust he held for about five years, re spected by his kind though rather indulgent mas ter, as also by his fellow-shepmeu, and all who came in contact with him, more particularly the lady customers wllo frequented the shop. In 1847 he goes to France, where about four years he held a good situation, but an attachment fir a young and amiable lady brings h.m back to Scotland again in 1851, when he is told by his sweetheart that, de spairing of h.s ever being atle to keep a wife re spectably and of his return, she had, in his absence, accepted. an offer which had beau made to her: . L'Angelier is plunged into the deep e st gr i e f, alma? heartbroken for the less of his lover, out of emp;er f ment, and out of money, livi ng on th e b oun ty his ftieeds, and he comes to Dundee. From hi 6 kind and obliging disposition he very soon gets pm' quainted with na my very respectable persons in the town, and is rt spected by all, who knew him as 33 intelligent, tvell-behaved young man. In Sept nib ot 1852 t.e goes te Glasgow, provid d with recomnaMr dati ns flow some of the most respectable Merchant! of Dundee, to try and get a bAter situation, biz' wite the understanding that ip case he did not sec' ceed he would come back to my home. His reconv memiations from Dundee did not procure hire situation, but through the efforts of a very kind an d most respectable !aly, whose acquaintance he hat' male when selling bouquets to her in Edinburg he got into the situation which he hell at his death. In this situation, according to the evidence of 115 ' 4 fellow-workmen,. as well as from a conversatie ti which I had with Mr. Kennedy, the cashier of the e=t'blishmeut, he had been respected by all wh j ° knew him, and, until the time he became acquainte d with Miss Smith, not a single stain can he foun: on the character of peer L'Angelier, unless poverti alone be a crime." MISS MADE LINE SMITH. The paragraphs relltug to this young person sal i f us for insertion, some original and others cut 0 , various journals, have positively become a iitir sauce. Ttstimouials, we are assured, are bring so lr , scribal, and she herself has been detected at var'' ous places at one and the - same frac, while nav e " ions sailing vesels have borne her to a forei.g li o country. Miss Smith is residi ng w i t h h er parel l ,, and family at Rowaleyn in strict seclusion, t) l e state of her mother' s h ea lth g i v i ng r i se i n th e facto," . , ) circle to cansider4ble anxiety. It is not unlilmJ that she may remove out o f th e coun ty f o r som e months, and that Mr. Smith will re urn to 0bj' . . 6 .:, gow, where his character and sufferings will insl for him the respect and sympathy of his zens of all classe=.
