Yesterday Mr. Baker and a respectable jury met at the Town of Ramsgate, Wapping, to institute an inquiry relative to the death of George Grainger, aged 26, who, with another man, whose body has nut been found, named George Ta'e, was drowned on the 7th inst., off Erith, in c( nsequence of a 'col lision between the American and European screw steamer Argo, of 2,300 tons, and the Wilthen, 171 tons, of Whitby, to which they were attached. dr. E. Waites, solicitor, Greenwich, attended for Mr. Grainger, captain of the Wilthed, whose son was one of the unfortunate deceased, and Mr. C. Willsher was engaged for the company. J. Maggissen, cook on board the the Wilthen, said that the crew of the vessel, which was laden with coals, consisted of the captain, the mate (Tate), him self, and four others. Ou th e in question, about four in the afternoon, they were near Erith, he edified, and in the middle of the stream of the Thames, when they saw the Argo approaching them. The captain and some more of the men ca!led out those on board the Argo to port the helm. Witness saw no alteration in the ship's course, upon observing whi-th he, Grainger, and Tats, together with two men got into the boat at the stern of the vessel, in the water. They had scarcely reached it when the Wilthen was struck by the Argo, which afterwards passed over the boat, sending the whole of those in it into the water. Witness and two of the men were saved by a boat of the Preventive service. In answer to the coroner, the witness said that after the call from those on board the Wilthenthere was plenty of time for the pilot of the Argo to pass clear of them. The captain had no power over the vessel as there was no wind. It was high tide, and the vessel was dropping down with the stream. The Argo, he thought, was going 14 knots an hour. By a Juror—The stern of the vessel was taken clean off, and the main rigging was taken away. Had there been a swell it would have still. It was af:erwards towed ashore by a steamer. The steamer did not stop, nor give assistance, though it had boats on board. Peacock, a Preventive officer, who saved the lives of the three raeu' confitned th e ev id ence. H e was about 300 yards tif, and distinctly hard a call on hoard the Wilthen, "port helm." He thought there was time for the steamer to have pased ou either side of the brig. The steamer was goin,, with great speed. He saw no reas on w h y i t shoul d not have kept the middle of the river. The brig was plainly to be seen, and there was no craft near it. Mr. Waites, after some remarks from the coroner as to whether the affair was likely to be entertained criminally, observed he was instructed to say that the case would be left in the hands of the coroner and jury. The coroner finally adjourned the inquiry to Thursday next, directing that, in the meanwhile, a lost rnortem examinai ion of the body should take place. (N ). 20,321.) PUBLICATIONS. NOTICE.

An Account, pursuant to the Act 7th and Bth Victoria, cap. 32, for the Week ending ou Wednesday, the 18th day of November, 1857. THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE. (From the Sierra Leone Era, Sept. 24.) The evil effects attending the policy lately adop ted by the Fi ench Emperor, in seeding vessels to the coast of Africa, for the purpose of procuring and carrying emigrants to the French colonies in the West Indies, is thus given in the last number of the African, furnished by a correspondent at Lagos, under date September 6 * : * Information has been received that the Emperor of the Fren::.l), through a contract made with the house of Regis at Marseilles, who have a factory at Whydah, is actually carrying out the sug gestions of the West India deputation by sending a screw steamer called the Stella to Whydah to pur chase 1,200 slaves, ship them on board, and call them free emigrants. But the Emperor's intention having evidently been made known in Havaunah, Brazil, and New York, several months since, a copy of his contract with Monsieur Regis having been published in a Bahia commercial paper, the slave dealers, their ag en t s , an d accomp li ces have, under French auspic es , l arge l y renewe d th e ir inhuman traffic at Whydah, b ut as they give much higher prices for prime sla ves th an th e E m p e ror's agent, Monsieur R eg i s , can by bits contract aff )rd to do, the Spaniards are actually driving the French agent o u t of his own market—the highest price the French agent is able to pay for slaves is 50 dollars, while the Spanish supercargoes pay as high as 90 dollars for an able-bodied slave, consequently the Freneh can only purchase what the Spaniards reject, and even then cannot ob tain a full cargo for the Stella, which vessel it is stated is gone to another factory of M. Regis, at the River Gaboon, to try and get slayes cheaper, and complete her full cargo of 1,200. This is what is wished to be palmed off on the people of England as free emigration from Africa ! The great stimulus to the stave trade given by this most discreditable transaction on the part of a leading power in Europe, the people of which coun try, when their voices were free, declared slavery at an end for ever in the colonial possessions of France, is producing great evil in the Yoruba and other counties where its influence is felt, and up rooting all the good done in three years of peace and freedom from slave trade in the Bight of Benin. Already the Abbeokutans who last year brought 1,500 tons of palm oil to Lagos to sell have this year scarcdy brought 500 tons, and the unwilling people have been forced to follow their chiefs to war, in order to feed the demand for slaves at Whydah. The unwillingness of the bulk of the inhabitants of that interesting town to abandon their legiti mate commerce and their cotton plantations may be gathered from the following proclamation of the war chiefs of Abbeokuta, made public at a large meeting convened by them on Saturday, the 13th of June last : "1. That in order to procure a large army for the Abio war soon to be undertaken trade must be stopped now and during the war, nothing must be sold and nothing bought. "2. In order to th , s, the passages by land and the river to Igai, Ilaaddau, I li..arrodo, Illorin, Lago, and other adjacent towns that trade with Aloheokuta, must be stopped. "3. That no canoe or canoes be allowed to ap pear in the river, excepting tie missionaries who are no traders. "4. That instant death on the spot be the penalty inflicted upon violation of any of these rules." This is the result of the revival of the slave trade by Franc©. The people of Ibaddan, a town larger and more populous than Abbeokuta, but who have not felt to the same extent the beneficial influences of legitimate commerce, are now preparing to attack the people of Jaboo, the markets of which country, held every eighth day, produce during the palm-oil season from 100 to 150 tons of oil each market day. One evil feature in the French slave-trade is that we'have no treaty with Fiance for the suppression of the slave trade. The last convention with France, concluded in May, 1845, to last ten years, having expired in May 1855 ; and even if there existed a treaty, this being a government speculation, could not be interfered with, and that while the natives (who cannot understand the reeson why) see our English ships of war seize the Spanish vessels en gaged in the slave trade, remark that they do not in terfere with the French vessels, no explanation ago at free emigration could be understood by them. They see in both cases money paid for slave., and no talking to them could ever make them compre• hend that any thing else can possibly be iuteeded by the white man, when he buys slaves and goes to a great expense in transhipping them to a country to these poor people being brought back at the across the leg sea, but to work them as slaves. As ex piration of ten years (that is, such of them as should be alive at that period) as free men, the proposition is absurd to those who have lived in Africa. If brought back again to the country from whence they were shipped, they w ou ld i n a short time be all made slaves again, and p ro b a bly r esold for another ten years, should th e i n i qu it ou s system to supply labour t o th e W est I n di a plantations endure. Even those emigrants from Havannah and Brazil, who, a ft er purchasing t h e i r own free dom in thos e countries are, if they return an d l an d elsewhere th an a t Lagos (where they come un d er British protection)immediately plundered of every thing,nwho pl plundered u had de r and e ith er sold or put to deaths as was tee case ten yea rs s i uce, when a Brutal Poi tuguese cap tcans at Bahia, un d er promise of lau di ng th em a t ed embarked of f 46 self-emancipated Afri - Ligos, forced th em on shore at Wh y ,i a h . Th e y were a everything as soon as landed, and then marched up to Abomy, and the only tid ings eve r b ear d of these poor people were that the monster Nero, Icing Gezo, had enslaved all the children and pu t the adults to death. Another slaver, an American brigantine, the Eliza Jane, w as b rought into this port on. Satur day, her Majesty' s s hi p et enin g l as t , in charge of one of the officers -,f Alecto, by a boat of which ves sel she was c a pt ured on the 24th August last, off Malemba, cerry i ng the usual equipments for the of them, hydab, sieve trade, a n d t wo slaves. Several oth er vessels are reported to have b een captured on the coast and on their way to th i s co l to ak ny en . Two r the o n Conclt e suspicion,ta, a S a p n a d n itshe brig h b William Clarke, American, without colours or papers, with from 700/. to 8001. in money, by the Firefly. Another, a schooner reported to have been taken about five or six weeks since in the Bights, by the Antelope, with 190 slaves ; and a brig taken off Cabenda, by the Myrmidon, the clptain and greater part of the crew having previously aban doned her, taking with them a large amount of mone y which was on board. Two Spanish vessels, a schooner and barque, ere also reported to have been captured off Ben gola, and taken into Loando. A canoe, with upwards of forty slaves, has also been brought in during the past week, taken off the Bannanas by , the Manager of Kent, after some re sistance, the party iu charge of the canoe having fired into their pursuers on their nearing them, and doing considerable damage to their boat, when they in return were fired into and the captain wounded. This boat is said to have been taken under tee very nose of H.M.S. Brune, cruising there at the time. (From the Colonisation Herald.) Several of the most powerful nations of the earth have made an effort to put an end to tho iniquitous slave trade. M u ch has been accomplished, but it appears, however, that the illicit commerce is by i no means extinguished• A gentleman, who re cently arrived at New York from the coast of Africa, states that he learned from good authority that there waiting for cargo-s of slaves, and seeking were thirty vessels, all sailing under the Portuguese to get to sea, unperceived by the flag, lying in the creek at the mouth of the Congo o o ns were stationed near the mouth give warning of the vicinity of and thus g tto eaiffiencotuntcheeoiprpoerstcuanpeitieisn, night and a fair wind these traders a brig (supposed to be an c t i lowl ni ah i r ut v eiitesiollerinational opportunities hrpudarkriver, iere itrs American craft) was making her way out of the safety. iniluman mouth of the Congo River, with 400 negroes on board, when she was espied by a British steamer, , which promptly gave chase. The brig slipped away from her pursuer with the greatest ease. The steamer I Not beingslong a m g o i fired several shots at her, but without success. When the brig had got out of reach of the steamer's guns, the captain, by way of tantalising the baffled cruiser, ordered a negro to be pulled up to the yard- arm, where he was allowed to hang for some time, as an insulting token of the acknowledged character of the vessel. The captain also signified his exultation by standing at the stern fiddling as his brig scudded away. This statement is well cal culated to produce a thrill of indignation and hor ror.. It might he doubted, but that we have con• stant accounts of the seizure of suspected slavers at. some o f the leading ports of the United States, while it is well known that thousands of slaves are landed every year on the Island of Cuba. The very perils that beset the trade make the tempta tion to the mercenary the stronger, because when they manage to escape with a cargo of slaves the profits are enormous. The governments imme diately concerned, and bound together by treaties, should not permit themselves to be baffled by the infamous and desperwo men who are engaged in this abomination. They should make still more vigorous efforts, and thus vindicate the principles of humanity. Let the reader imagine the scenes that are likely to be enacted on board the thirty vessels above re ferred to, the incidents, as well on land as on the sea—the anguish, the agony, the resistance, the stripes, the suffocation, the death, and if not the death, the life-long bondage ; and he may then form some faint idea of this modern horror. And yet we have, in the United. States, an executive who has recommended a revival of the trade by authority of law, and who has even endeavoured to persuade his fellow-citizens that the system is every way commendable and justifiable. This, `loo, in the nineteenth century, and in the age of the steam engine. the railroad, and the electric telegraph ! The fact affords a bitter commentary upon the force of prejudice, and the weakness of poor human nature. Theidea that tbe chtefmagistrate of aflourishing Com monwealth should coolly recommend one class of hu man beings to enter into an organised planto seize and bear away from their homes anoth€r class, and then to sell them into perpetual bondage, is inde.?d monstrous. Such an outrage detailed in the pages of romance would be ridiculed as preposterous and unnatural ; or, if believed, the nation recommend or sustaining it would be regarded as worse than barbarian. We have looked. with special interest to see in what light the thinking men, and especially the religious men of the south would regard this effort to revive the slave trade. We rejoice that nearly all denounce it, were it practicable, in no mistake able terms of condemnation. Even the committee of a South Carolina Legislature, to whom the re commendation of their Governor to this effect was referred, have declined to make any report upon it, thus virtually rejecting it—a fact that brings honour to South Carolina. The recent Southern Convention hid the subject on the table by a vote of 68 to 16, equivalent to unanimity. The news paper press of the entire north and of a large por tion of the south, have simultaneously turned their engines cf cold. water upon it, and so utterly extiu tzuishing it that it scarcely emits a smoke. And at the motion of a southern member the House of Representatives hare resolved, by a large majority that they "regard all suggestions or propositions of every kind, by whomsoever made, for the re vival of the African slave trade, as shoct.ing to the moral sentiment of the enlightened portion of man kind, or any act on the part of Congress, legislating or concurring in, or lega,liing that horrid and in human traffic, would justly subject the Unttcd States to the reproach of all civilised and Christian people throughout the world." Thus both govern ment and people promptly refuse to engage in or countenance it. On the contrary, it is gratifying to find that in the estimates of appropriations for t'e ensuing year, provision is made for a liberal sum to aid in the suppression of this illegal traffic ; and there is good reason to believe that the general government is in earnest in its efforts in this direction.

NEW SCHOOL CHURCH IN AGAR-TOWN.—Tho echool church, the foundation-stone of which was laid in May last by Lord Robert Grosvenor, was opened yesterday to the most neglected portion of Agar town, St. Pancraq, lying bet 'Teen St. Paul's-road and the hack of the Great Northern Railway station The building is of brick, with paintel roof and belfry ; the general appearance being ecclesias'ac rather than scholastic. The intirior is not without come pretension t• architectural beauty. The roof is supported by beams of imitation oak, supported on bosses, and at the upper end there is a little recess or chancel with an open screen and dwarf railing. Within this enclosure there is a commu nion table and come) church furniture in Ariel: keeping with the character of the place. There are, of course, no pews of any kind, but moveable seats and low form, are ranged in rows right and left, which can be used either by the children at school hours, or by the congregation during divine service. The building is constructed to hold 400 persons, and the entire cost, in cludiug some necessary offices, is 1,2001. Of this sum 8001. have been subscribed, and the rector, the ROT. Canon Dale, is responsible for the balance. , c 7 7 • [ PRICE 4D.

He wac like wise sentenced to be imprisoned in Fort Clarenc for two years. The hardened deportment di-played by the prisoner during the infliction of the punish ment is scarcely conceivable.

Accounts have been received of the death of Vice Admiral William Fitzwilliam Owen, at St. John's, New Brunswick, on the 3d inst. Admiral Owen was brother of the late Admiral Sir Edward Owen, G.C.8., and Ives a veteran officer of 69 years' standine, having entered the navy so far back as 1778. Although undecorated, it will be scee that during his active service of 34 years under the pendant he earned his various grades by hard fighting. He was a "Ist of June" officer, and was perhaps more acquainted wish the details of the Spithead mutiny-the real mutiny of the fleet-than any survivor of those times. Ad miral Owen was in the receipt of the admiral's ser vice pension, which now reverts to the patronage of the First Lord of the Admiralty. Wu subjoin a sketch of the services of the deceas: d. This officer entered the navy June 4, 1788, as midshipman, on board the Culloden, 74, and was in that ship, under Captain Schoenberg in the famous action of June 1. On his return to England from the Cape of Good Hope, whilier he had gone in the Ruby, 64, Capt. Hon. Henry Edwin Stanhope, he joined, in November, 1795, the London, 98, bear ing the flag in the Channel of Vice Admiral John Colpoye. For his conduct during the mutiny at Spitheed he was promated, June 12, 1797, to the rank of lieutenant ; and at the same time placed in command of the Flame, gun vessel. He wai next, between Dec., 1798, and Oct., 1801, employed, prin cipally in the channel, on board the Charm), 44, Captain John M'Kella.r ; Gorgon, Captain Robert Williams; and Namur, flag ship of Earl St. Vincent, and for 7 months in command of the Nancy, fire vessel. Assuming command, July 8,18 n, of the Sea Flower, brig of 14 guns, Lieut. Owen, after serving for a time on the French coast, sailed for the East Indies, where be effected the capture, July 15, 1806, of Le Charles, French national ketch. In the following September he explored part of the Maldive Islands, and their separating channel, which had never been invested ; and on November 10, in the same year, he discovered an excellent channel, now b-aring the name of his brig, situated between the islands of Sai Berout and Poulo Porn, near the west coast of Sumatra. On the 27th of the latter month, having conducted Sir Edward Pellew's squadron through a very intricate naviga tion into Batavia Roads, he there distinguished himself by his gallantry in command of a division of boats at the capture and destruction of a Dutch frigate, seven brigs of war, and about 20 arined and other merchant vessels. We subsequently, Dec. 11, 1807, ilud hint contributing to the destruction of the dockyard and stores at Griessee, in the island. of Java, and of all the men of war remaining to Hol land in ludia. In September, 1807, Lieutenant 0 men had the misfortune to be taken captive by the French, who detained him in the Mauritius until June, 1810 ; from August, to November in which year he was employed, we believe, in super intending the transports sent from Madras to the Isle of France. He then, having been awarded a second pronaotal commission, bearing date May 20, 1809, obtained command of the Barracouta, 18, part of the force employed in the summer of 1811 at the reduction of the Island of Java, where he assisted at the debarkation of the troops at Chil lineching, and continued attached to the army until after the surrender of Batavia. In December ; 1811, Capt. Owen, who had been advanced to post rank on the 2d of the pi eeeding May, and had held for a short time the command of the Piemontaise frigate at Bombay, was eppointed to the Cornelia, 32. Le 1812 he took po-session, with a squadron under his orders, of the Island of Palembang. He returned to England with a China convoy in June, 1813, and was subsequently appointed, March 27, 1815, to the surveying service on the lakes of Ca nada, whence lie came home in May, 1816. On the 10th August, 1821, he was appointed to the Leven, 24, in which vessel he was for upwards of four years employed in conducting a survey of the coast of Africa ; and on the 2d Feb., 1827, to the Eden, 26, fitting for another expedition to the African coast, where, prior to his departure for South America, he was engaged in forming a settlement at Fernando Po ; and having paid the last-men tioned ship off at the close of 1831, he was ap pointed, April 22, 1847, to the Columbia, steam s ur- ve ying vessel, of 100 horse-po w or, stationed in North America. Since Dec. 21, 1847, the date of his ele vation to flag rauk, he has been on half-pay. Assisted by various officers, Rear Admiral Owen, during his command of the Leven, constructed the following charts and views-viz ,22 of the west coast of Africa, 31 of the east coast of Africa, 12 of the east coast of Madagascar, 17 of the west, coast of Madagascar, and 1 of the harbour of Grand Port in toe Mauritius. He also, wo understand, surveyed the coast of Asia from Cape Comorin along the shores of Malabar and Surat. together with the whole extent of the sea-side of Persia and Arabia. In 1828 be constructed two charts of the Seychelles and one of the port and bay in the island of Mabe. He had executed a chart of the mouth of the river Demerara, and published in conjunc tion with Captain Richard Owen, " Table of Lati tude and Longitudes by Chronometers of Places in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans ; with an Essay on he Management and Use of Chronometers." We should have stated yesterday that Captain John Elphinstone Erskine (1838), C. 8., A.D.C., the senior on the active list, obtains his promotion to the rank of rear admiral of the blue, vice Rear Admiral H. F. Greville, C. 8., to be vice admiral of the white, vice C. Graham, C. 8., deceased. Captain James Hope, C. 8., A.D.C. (1838) gets his flag rank by the death of Admiral 0 wen ; and Captain Superintendent Horatio Austin, C. 8., of Deptford Dockyard, becomes senior and next in turn for promotion. In addition to the admiral's service-pension, Sir Charles Wood has now at his disposal the nomina tion of two naval aides-de-camp to the Queen. MILITIA.

METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKE3.—At a meeting of the Metropolitan Board . of Works yesterday, Mr. Thwaites in the chair, it was unanimously resolved, "That the engineer be instructed to consider and roper as to the expediency of extenying the outLts of th, existing sowers on either side further down into th, river,' so as to ensure a great dilution of the sewage waters, and to make an approximate of the cost fir.

I- The Freemans Journal of this fitiO 4144 lOW course of some remarks upon thgAirogteseorti to; monetary crisis in England and Sccrtland a iltateS t some vile miscreants are encleavourtnr , to efoltfi-ig run for gold on the branches of the Irish banks, the Provincial, the National, and4t )e Ipt i k of Ireland itself being the establishment -scleCied• as the intended victims of this wicked machination. The Freeman observes : " MI these establishments were, however, prudently prepared for the possible outburst of such folly, and g eld was supplied in abundance to ail the branches. In Limb rick and in Cork a partial run on the Bank of Irelf.nd, the Provincial, the Nationil, and on the Savings-bank was persevered in for a time, but abandoned when the promptness of these establishments to meet the ,ft eman d became evident, and some of those who withdrew de f y). sits and obtained g,ll are now returning the gold to the hacks. It is gratifying to see that in Ireland people are recovering their reasoa before the mania had time to do the only harm it was capable of doing here—compelling the banks to restrict accommodation. It is quite true that a universal and simultaneous run for geld on all the banks would close every hack in the United Kingdom, and probably produce almost universal bankrup'cy. But no such run is possible, and no run that could be made in Ireland could do more than give trouble to the banks, and bring serious loss to the people who would be active in it. It could not iej are the bank., which are now fully prepared to issue any amount of gold that could by pom eorot he lastr a e 4 .'

It is .10e a gratifying fact that there are no failures to aline-twee iu Belfast. There are, however, other announcements in the same journal which are by no means of the same cheering character. Of the powerleom weavers it says : " We regret to hear, although such a course was fully anticipated, that two of the principal firms in Belfast engaged in the manufacture of linen by power have resolved to run their engines short time. One of the factories has already commeneed'working eight days in the fortnight, and the other will next week be placed on half time. This will greatly reduce the earnings of several hundreds of workers, and subject them to un e , ussal privations, at the present high price of provisitime. It is to be feared that the remaining powerloom houses will be obliged to folios. the example. The reduction of hours has no direct connection with the monetary crisis, but is owing chiefly to the increase of stocks and the disinclination to fulfil American orders, should such offer, or oven where they are actually en hand." The state of the cross-Channel trade, too, indi cates a remarkable depression of the trade between the two countries,— " We understand—and are not surprised to learn that such is the case—that within the last few weeks our import and export trade with the other side of the Chan nel has been checked to a considerable extent by the present unsettled state of commercial and monetary affairs. Two steamers arc now found sufficient fur the Llverpool line instead of four, and those running to all the other parts in England and Scotland only obtain . partial cargoes either inwards or outwards. This is scarcely to be wondered at when the outwa,-d-bound trans-Atlantio steamers are leaving with, in some in stances. cargoes only one-eighth the neual amount." But it is in the sewed muslin trade—one of the moot important branches of commerce in Belfast— tnat a great check has been given to the prosperity of the capital of Ulst"r. The failure of the house of Macdonald and Co. appears to have been se• vercly felt in the north of Ireland. The Banner says : "That house bad grown and grasped until it became too great for any ordinary man to manage its details. The engine, though unfit to drive the cumbrous ma chinery, was forced on, until at length the boiler burst, scattering dismay and destruction on all with in its reach. It has been well sad that, had the busi ness attempted by the firm in question been done by 30 houses, the trade, the country, and workpeople would have been much better to-day. The failure of Messrs. Macdonald has not only thrown out of employ ment the thousands of workers engaged by that firm, but the dread of the peremptory sale of their stocks of finished goods, and the effect it would produce on the markets for several months afterwards, causes far-seeing manufacturers to desist from production, well knowing that every jabbed parcel of goods destroys, f-r the time being, the real value of regular manufactures. Thi s feeling, together with the late panic in New York and the pressure at home, has so acted on the trade here that not one in every 20 of the girls formerly employed is able to obtain work at almost any rate of wages. We must not omit stating that, whatever may have been the short comings of the firm of Macdonald and Co. as regards their policy in the market for goods. no charge could be made against them as employers ; and we have heard that since the suspension of the firm every single piece of work in the hands of sewers through tho country hat been re gularly paid for as soon as it was returned to the head warehouse in Belfast. As coon, however, as each sewer fiui-hes, no further work is given. In the heyday of their enterpri the Messrs. Macdonald kept abort 15,000 hands in regular employment. Messrs. Lindsay, of Victoria street, had several thousand girls at work throughout the country ; Messrs. S. R. and T. Brown were most exten sive employers ; J. and W. Wallace, Major, Brothers, and a host of ethers gave full work and wages to almost incredible numbers of girls and women, but nearly all such sources of labour have been closed up, and the vast sums so paid away no longer being comfort to the firesides in cabin and cottage. In the case of the sudden collapse of the sewed muslin trade no warning note told of coming ill. A few months ago the houses connected with the different branches were in full work, and prospects of an active trade for a long period were highly satisfactory. Irrespective of the tens of thousands of females who have been thrown idle in the provinces, there are now immense numbers of the higher order of workers unable to find a single day's empl ,ymert in Belfast. Engaged in the finish of goods at the several warehouses in town two years ago there were about 500 young women, and most of them were of a very superior class, well educated for their rank, well conducted in their habit, and in point of skill un equalled by any other grade of female artisans. Besides these white workers,' there were not less than 2,000 girls and women engaged in the gray work— that is, in embroidering go As for the several firm., local and Scottish. 'roe wages so earned added materialiy to the weekly income of many a bou;ehold. Good workers could earn 6 to 7s. is the six nay , , and ordinary h ends were able to make 3i. to 6-. Many of the wives and children of working men were exceedingly expert in sewing, and, after having attended to house hold duties, could have earned Is. a day. The total amount of goods given out by all the houses in town at present would not, we understand, give work to one in 20 of these people ; and in the mass of young women engaged in the finishing department the ratio of the iole to the employed is no less extensive. Up to the present, or at least until within the last fortnight, num bers of hands got partial work in finishing goods which bad been in hand at the time of the first great change in the trade ; but nearly all such sources of employment are now dried up, and thus hundreds of well-conducted and intelligent women will—most of them, at least— be left without means of support." As an instance of the gold mania among the fanners in the county of Limerick, the Evening Post narrates the following on the authority of a local correspondent : "A gentleman who fills several important agencies in the south was applied to by a great many of the tenants to identify them at the different barks, whence they de sired to withdraw their deposits. On the gentleman re monstrating with them on the groundlessness of their fears, they put the sincerity of his explanation to the test—' Would he receive their draughts on the banks for their rent, not due till march next, and give them receipts 1' He did so at once, and obtained checks for a considerable am,unt." THE POPE AND THE SEPOYS. The Evening Post authoritatively announces that the Must Eev. Dr. Cullen has received 1,000 francs from his Holiness the Pope, and GOO francs from the Cardinal Prefect of the Propaganda, for the relief of the sufferers in India from the atro cititia committed by the Sepoys. Perhaps after this hint we shall on some early day hear of the Irish Roman Catholic clergy following in the wake of the Sovereign Pontiff, and evincing their sym pathy in the same cause by appointing a day for a general collection throughout the whole kingdom.
