It will be remembered that a abort time back the London and North-Western Railvcay purchased a large portion of land running from We Hampstead-road to Seymour-street, for the purpose of enlarging the terminus. At the back of this ground a large and lofty wall has been run up, se parating the railway from a new square called Ampt hill square, the houses forming which are now in course of erection, those near the Hampstead-road being completed and inhabited. The roads around the square are not yet finished, and during the last few weeks a large quantity of rubbish has been shot f.r the purpose of forming th , m. During the ni2-ht of Thursday an immense quantity of broken-up cofsns and human bones were shot upon the spot, but where they were brought from no one could tell. On the Friday large number , - were drawn to the spot, and not only were human bones found in large quantities, but pieces of flesh were picked up. Tne children who were there amused themselves b raking over the soil for the pur pose of finding teeth, of which great numbers were : picked up. Th e reporter, w h o was present, had a whol e h an df u l s h own h i m, the urc hi n w h o h a d pi c ked them up t e lli ng - hi m h e should ta k e t h em to a d en ti s t's and sell the m .

Ain advertisement, however, appeared a short time since, stating that some graves would have to be removed in that churchyard, in order to enlarge the church, and the probability is that the remains of suffering hunmoity bate been brought from that place. Saturday the large mound was mixed with gravel, and strewd all over the road, for the purpose of hiding the bones and pieces of coffins with which the earth was intermixed. It is to be hoped that the parochial authorities will make some inquiry into the affair, as, lea"ing out of question the revolt ing treatment of human remains, the pestilential stench arising from them is so great that if a stop is not put to such a proceeding fever and disease will be engendered in the neighbourhood to an alarming extent. [ PRICE SD. IRELAND. DUBLIN, SEPT. 4.—At a meeting of the guardians at Kilkenny, on Thursday, a letter was read from the Poor-law Commissioners, dated September I, refusing to allow any reduction of the rates for temporary ad vances already declared, tlie. highest of which is Is. Bd., but inmost electoral diviSions not exceeding sd. in the pound. The following passage from the letter is important : " ThL Commissioners having every reason to sup pose that whatever time may be allowed by the Com missioners of her Majesty's Treasury for the actual repayment of the advances made, they will not forego the immediate making of rates for that purpose, to the extent above described, now call upon the guardians of Kilkenny union to proceed, without fail, in the making of the rates resolved upon on the 19th ult." The estimate for the Kilkenny division amounts to 3s. 6d. for ordinary purposes alone ; and the Commis sioners say it is not possible for them " to sanction any rate being made on the principle of excluding from it all provision for the repayment of the temporary ad vances." On the recommendation of the Hon. Mr. IVANDES• FORDE, the guardians postponed further proceedings until they had time to consider t he letter of the Com . . missioners. ENNISKILLEN.—The guardians of this union were convened for Tuesday, to hear a communi.:ation from the Commissioners on the refusal of the board to in clude the amount for out-door relief on the rate sti uck for the ordinary expenses of the workhouse. The Commissioners bad previously threatened to appoint paid guardians. Nothing, however, was ilot,e, in consequence, as the local paper says, of the absence of a number of the guardians at tte Lough Erne Regatta. CLOGHEEN.—At the meeting on Monday, one of the guardians (Mr. O'Brien) openly repudiated, on the ground that "England dra%s annually out of the country 16,000,0001. The Chairman, Mr. Barton, Mr. J. A. Rutter, and other guardians, declared that such conduct would be dishonest. They recom mended that the proper rate should be struck, and then that the Government should be asked to give time for repayment. Lord Kingston said, " The Government think the people have plenty of money." Mr. Archer Buller replied, " They never were mere mistaken in their lives." Ultimately a resolution, declaring a rate of 3s. in the pound, was adopted by a majority of 12 to 4. RESISTANCE TO POOR-RATES. At the meeting of the Carlow guardians, on Thursday, the Chairman stated that there had been resistance to the collection of the rate for outdoor relief in Graigue, Shrule, and Arles ; that the Rev. Mr. Hickey, on Sunday last, told his flocks not to pay for out-door relief, and that he would write im mediately to Conciliation Hall for instructions how to act. The result was that a rescue had been made on the property seized for poor-rate. It was resolved to communicate with the Commissioners on the sub ject. The Chairman remarked upon " the universal disposition not to pay the rate." The Limerick Reporter gives an account of resist ance to the collection of the new poor-rate in the parish of Emly, county of Tipperary. Lord Glengall presided on Thursday at a meeting of the rate-payers of five unions in the county of Tipperary, held in Clonmel, to " consider the enor mous burden of taxation with which the country was oppressed." INQUEST ON PERS EONS TRANSMITTED FROM . An inquest was held yesterday in the cabin of the Duchess of Kent steamer on the bodies of the two poor persons who died on board that vessel. The jury found the following verdict We find that Michael Duignan was removed in a cart at seven o'clock on the morning of Wednesday last from a fever hospital in the town of Rochdale, in England, to the railway station there, and thence transmitted by railway, a distance of forty-seven miles, to Liverpool, and there put on board the same day as a deck passenger, in a weak and very exhausted state—in a state quite unfit to undertake a voyage across the channel ; and we find that his death was caused by the exposure of his weak and diseased frame to the cold of a tempestuous night on the deck of e t a h t e m s e t n e t am of e t r he steamer.

EXAMrLEs. THE WEST INDIAN MAIL. The Great Western Royal Mail Company's steam ship Great Western, George Abbott commander, arrived at Southampton yesterday morning at nine o'clock, after a remarkably fine passage, arriving at least two days earlier than she was expected, thus placing this recent addition to the Company's fleet on a par with their fastest vessels. The mails came in charge of Mr. Elison, in con sequence of the illness of Lieutenant Miller, Ad miralty agent, who was invalided at Havannah, and left in the hospital. The Great Western brings forty-nine passengers : —Mr. Conti, from Vera Cruz; Messrs. Gogel, Mo rales, Luncheon, Noltinius, and Anglada, from Havannah ; Mr. Salazar, from St. Juan de Nica ragua; Messrs. Jean, Letts, Treblecock, and Waters, from Chagres ; Miss Martin, from Carthagena; Mr. Singleton, Mr. Taylor, two children and servant, Messrs. Wright, Lindop, de Cordova, and Roxburgh, from Jamaica; Mr. Brown, from Jacmel ; Mr. Bilen brugh, from Porto Cabello ; Mr. Albony and servant, Messrs. Bennett and Jones, from Demerara; Messrs. Turnbull, M'Gregor, and Spiers, from Trinidad ; Mr. Jackson, from Grenada ; Mr. M'Kenzie, from St. Vincent ; Mr. Bow, from Guadaloupe ; Messrs. Jefferson and Sheil, from Montserrat ; Mr. Berkley and two children, from St. Kitt's ; Messrs. Vesonnars, Heap, and Hestres, from St. Thomas ; Mr. Johnston and Miss and Master Agassey, from Bermuda; Mr. H. J. Whalley and two invalids, one distressed British subject. And on freight-208,391 dollars on merchants' account, but none for dividends ; 1,981/. in gold, 591 ounces of gold dust, 26 silver bars, 65 bales of tobacco, 114 cases of cigars, 10 serons of cochineal, 22 bales of sarsaparilla, 8 serons of jalap, 62 turtle, 17 packages of arrowroot, 27 cases of pines, 70 packages of sundries. Her dates are—Tampico July 26, Vera Cruz August 2d, Havannah 11th, Honduras July 20th, Carthagena 29th, Jamaica August Bth, Demerara 4th, Trinidad .sth, Barbadoes Bth, Grenada 9th, St. Thomas 15th, Bermuda 20th, La Guayra 2d. The Great Western left her Majesty's ship Persian at Vera Cruz, together with 2 French, 5 American, and 1 Spanish men-of-war. The company's ship Clyde was at Bermuda, Con way at St. Thomas's, Thames at Jamaica, and Teviot in the Gulf of Mexico. The Great Western reports the weather in the va risus islands as being fine, and the crops good ; but our files of papers no not support so favourable a view of these matters. We have accounts from Vera Cruz to the 2d of August. The Courier of Legation who had a l one been allowed to pass the belligerent lines, had arrived on the 31st of July. His accounts from the city of Mexico were far from satisfactory. He describes General Scott's force at Puebla to be 15,000 men , waiting for some reinforceme nts previous to advancing on Mexico; on their arrival he wo.uld immediately march. There was a strong party in Mexico for an a rrangement with General Scott, and about 20,000 Mexicans prepared to oppose his entering the city ; but, from the disunion amongst the leading men, it was expected that the Americans would meet with no serious opposition. The mortality at Vera Cruz, both in the hospitals and among the newly arrived Ameri cans, continued. There was no chance of introducing goods into the interior, and trade in consequence was at an end. The chances of peace were considered slight; the several departments of the Republic had declared against negotiation, and even when the American General is in the c it y , he will be in a most embarrassed position. The conversion of the Mexican debt is said to have been ratified by the Mexican Goverprnent, but nothing is likely to be done in the wa y of dividends whilst the Americans are in the country. M. C. Perry, commanding home squadron, had issued a public notice , d ated from his flag-ship the Mississipi, July 28, that the war tax of ten per cent. hitherto imposed on all our exports from the ports in the Gulf of Mexico, was to be discontinued. By the arrival of the Great Western, we have our usual files of papers. Fro m Jamaica we have com - plaints of the weather and want of shipping in the following terms : "The drought in St. Mary continues most destruc tive. The rivers throughout the parish are nearly all dry, there being in some places not water enough to supply the steam - eng ines or the. still-houses. One e s tate in the lower par t of the parish has for some time in p a st been compelled to carr y water puncheons for the supply of the engine, but even this resort has at last t tr n b e en given up, and on that , as well as on other estates, sug ar -making is entirely susp ended, althou g h there is a large field of canes yet to be t aken off. Meanwhile, the plants for next year's crop are almost burnt out of the ground. We have heard of som e p ieces of sp r ing plants which have been sup; .lied as often as fournTuefas toted purpose. There is an immense quantity of produce remaining over for want of shipping From the Cornwall Chronicle we learn, that— " The weather in Montego Bay had been very sultry during the last ten or twelve days. Bain clouds had passed over, but they carried their contents with them to the ocean." The following is an extract of a letter from Lucea, dated July 20, given in the Courier : " On Wednesday last one of the most frightful and terrible whirlwinds that I believe has ever been wit nessed in this island assailed the town and port of Lucea. The wind blew from all quarters, as if converging to a focus, at the same time. The rain, mixed with hail stones, fell in torrents. Th e sea rose in a rnomen, groaned, and then retired several feet. It seemed as it an opening in its bed had occurred, and that it sank into the bosom of the globe. The lightning flashed, and then an earthquake followed, which lasted several seconds." At Antigua, by our accounts, the state of the wea ther was a subject of complaint with the planters. The want of rain was severely felt, and planting operations seriously retarded thereby. We notice that there have been several arrivals of immigrants from Madeira within a short period. These people, as labourers, give satisfaction ; but the Antigua folks are beginning, to find fault with their keeping so many " saints days. From Dominica we learn that the Lieutenant- Governor had left for England. Mr. James Lang Bremner assumed the Government, being (says a local paper) .the first coloured person of Dominica who had gained the distinction of representing Majesty. We have more favourable accounts from Barba does, which had latterly suffered Amofe riprovisionse s a o severelyand the of from an" i w n nn adjoining s arbadoes in a single day from af u er p oh p me l d i e plantains, kinds besides o c h o fotahldfoeonroidee arrived esculents, u l e N a n rb e t g s a n :r t Nearly 3,000 3,000 bunches of Demerara alone ; prices, however, were still high, and much distress pre vailed. The Gov ernor had entirel recove red from the effects of his accident. His El cellenCy was establishing public libraries in the islands under his charge for the use of all classes, and had recommended the passing of an Act for apprenticing to the sea all the idle boys, as one of the modes of re lieving the islands. At Dominica the second reading of a Bill was car ried on a division by two majority to provide stipends for the support of senior and other Roman Catholic clergymen. REVIEW OF THE MARKETS. (From De Cordova's Mercantile Intelligencer.) If we except the decline in the prices of some articles. which will be found particularized below, no change of any moment has occurred in the state of the market since our last report. The circumstances which were at that period exercising a depressing influence on our trade continue to operate against it to the same extent. With respect to the new tariff, nothing further has been heard relative to the movements of the Home Go vernment. We may mention, however , that the old tariff has been ordered to be enfo rced until the matter shall be finally arranged. Flour—A further decline has occurred in the price of 600 barrels this article since our last issue, holders having been per barrel. forced to yield to existing circumstances. The transac a3:23 s4aon ( 3d i n 6s tions have extended to sales of gleans baels tnweowpßarcaletlis nallofner3weoooatral3ne6dasno:o(ol:lbsoa:r in b e l a s s r mrealsmall each) N lo e ts w a; In addition to these sales, a large parcel of Philadelphia, not all superfine, was moved at 365. and 355.; and some smaller lots, of old importations, previous to the sale of the new Baltimore at 365., at the last-named figure. Prices have since become merely nominal, the demand having now again slackened. Meal has also receded, 235. having been submitted to for some small parcels. A lot of 200 barrels, rather coarse, has been disposed of at 225. 6d. cash. The stock continues very heavy, and the demand light. Rice—We haves ot heard of any transactions in this article. The suppy of both East India and Carol' sorts is light. Bread—Watson's cra ckers and pilot bread are taken at 245.; the former are wanted, but there is a fair supply of the latter. A small sale of navy, of the same brand, has been made at 21 s. p er barrel, which is considered to be a full rate. . Butter—The supply of this article is exceedingly light, the market being bare of Irish, and but ill• supplied with other sorts. The demand, however, is only mode rate, the consumption being in a great degree restricted by the high rates asked. The last parcel of Irish was moved at 15d.; 120 kegs of Nova Scotia were taken at 12d., as were also 50 kegs of United States at the same figure, and a larger parcel of 130 kegs of the latter de scription at a decline of id. per lb. Lard is in good demand, but the stock is very small. A lot „1 600 k. gi nn,l at wards of good quality Phila delphia has been disposed of at 8: id per lb. Codfish—Just as we were going to press with our last a vessel came in from Halifax, and a small part of her cargo was parcelled cut at 175., in casks. A day or two after, two others arrived, one of which was said to have }teen of the new catch. The sales of both of these latt,r cargoes were opened, and small lots disposei of at 17s. for ordinary, and 18s. for large, in casks, and 20s. for boxes, when a vessel arrived from Newfound land with a cargo of some 340 small casks. This last arrival had some effect on the market, and the balance of the first-named cargo was parted with at 16s. in casks, and 18s. for boxes. The Newfoundland fish was the►► disposed of at 14s. and I7s. for casks and boxes respect ively, while the remainder of the two cargoes which had been opened previously continued to be placed in lots at 16s. for ordinary, and 16s. to 16s. 6d. for large in casks, and 18s. to 19's. in boxes. Subsequently a very small cargo of the new catch, from Ragged Island, came in, for the half of which 16s. for casks, and 19s. for boxes were accepted; but the other half is still unsold, in con sequence of its being put up in packages o! an unsuit- able size. Mackerel—The receipts of this article since our last issue have reached 1,200 barrels. The price of previous importations has consequently fallen, and we are told that 235. per barrel cannot now be obtained for any large quantity. From the Ist of May to this period the ar rivals have equalled half of the previous year? impor tations. Alewives are scarce, and command 245. per barrel. Herrings—No. I,:with roes, are saleable at 245., but there is very little demand for split even at 20i. to 225. The stock is light. Salmon—No. 1 and 2 in barrels aro wanted. Soap—The only wholesale transaction which has reached us is that of a sale of 1,000 boxes of Steele's 481 b. feather, at 12s. 6d. per box. Pork—Prime remains at our last quotation (785.), at which rate 300 barrels have changed hands. The con sumption appears to be much affected by the high price of the article. Mess is scarce. Beef—American has declined considerably, 525. per half barrel being now submitted to for small parcels. The stock is ample. Tongues-100 half barrels American pigs have changed hands at 405. per half barrel. Hams—Lancashire may be quoted at 9d. to 10d., Irish at 9d., and American at Bd. to 9d. per lb. The supply, for this period of the year, is ample. Cheese is scarce. Corn—The arrivals of South American continue to some extent. This description does not command more than 4s. per bushel. Oil has suffered a still further decline in value, the stock being excessive; 100 barrels cod were placed, with some difficulty, at ls. 10d. per gallon. Malt continues at onr last quotations. Lumber—The price of white pine has fallen under the free arrivals and the slackened demand for estates' use, the crop being nearly all taken off. A cargo from Phi ladelphia was placed at 128 s. per 1,000 feet, and another from Calais, Maine, consisting of about 100,000 feet at 10s. We have no sales to report of pitch pine. Cedar shingles are worth 225. Brandy—Martell's dark is taken at Gs. to 75., and pale at Ss. per gallon, in bond, but the demand is trifling. Tobacco—Cavendish 16's realize 7d., and 18's and 20's 74 1. per pound. Rum—Small parcels are moved at 4s. to 4s. 3d. per gallon for proof 21. Specie—Doubloons are exceedingly scarce. Colum bian are worth 3to 314 per cent. premium. Dollars are taken at 1 per cent. premium, or 4i each. Freights—The demand has not been so eager since the Ist of August, notwithstanding that a large quantity of produce yet remains on hand. The exceedingly low rases at which sugar is being sold in England have tended considerably to check the desire to export. Freights for sugar may be quoted at 4s. 6d. per cwt., and rum 4d. to 6:1. per gallon. Sugar ranges from 18s. to 225. per 10016. Exchanges—On London, 90 days 2, and 60 days lo per cent. discount. On Now York, 60 days, 4to 5 per cent. premium. THE MARYLEBONE MURDER. THE CONFESSION OF THE CONDEMNED CRIMINAL. The unfortunate woman, Mary Ann Hunt, who was convicted at the last session of the Central Cri minal Court, of murdering, under most brutal cir cumstances, an old woman named Stowell, still re mains in -Renate, awaiting the decision of the Government, as to whether the sentence of death passed upon her is to be carried into effect or not. It was proved at the trial, as will be in the recollec tion of our readers, that the wretched criminal was in the family-way, and as there appears to be no doubt that she will eventually become a mother, the sentence cannot, of course, be carried into effect until after she is delivered. It has been pretty generally understood, within the last few days, that the wretched woman has made a full confession of her guilt, and although the evi dence was so overwhelming as to leave no doubt that the jury came to the only conclusion it was possible for them, upon the facts deposed to by the witnesses, yet it will be satisfactory to the gentlemen who felt themselves constrained to return a verdict, the effect of which, in all human probability, would be to consign a fellow-creature to death upon the scaffold, and also to the public to know that there is no doubt that this is the case and that the unhappy culprit has, in clear and undisputed terms, a d m itted her guilt. Imme diately after she retired from the dock, when the jury had delivered their verdict, and sentence had been pronounced, she appeared to recover her self-posses sion, and said to one of the officials, who was accom panying her,_ " They do not yet know how it as was done." For some days after the trial she was very taciturn, but at length, tas above stated, she con fessed that she bad caused the death of the poor old woman, and detailed the circumstances under which the act was committed. The officials connected with the prison have exercised the greatest reserve upon the subject, the ground for which appears to be that as some persons in authority have felt themselves called upon to make exertions to save the life of the prisoner, and obtain a commutation of the sentence, the publi cation of the confession as to the circumstances under which the crime was committed might have the effect of paralysing their humane exertions. So far as has been gleaned from authentic sources, it appears the pri- Boner has admitted she destroyed the deceased, bu , denies that the act was a premeditated one. It will be remembered that upon the trial it was proved that on the Monday previous to the fatal occurrence taking place on the Wednesday, the accused and the deceased had a violent quarrel, and that the former made use of such threats towards the old woman as to induce the other lodgers to send for the landlord of the house, and this was adduced as a proof that the crime was premeditated by the prisoner. She, however, declares, that at this time she had no intention to hurt her, and that her threatening to de for her merely referred to her intention to prevent her from continuing to re ceive assistance from the family of Colonel Wyndham by informing them that she was not in such bad cir cumstances as she represented herself to be, and that she was not a worthy object of charity. The priso ner states that at this time she was in great distress of mind, owing to her pecuniary difficulties, and her in ability, from want of funds, to get to Brighton, where, as she was well known, she expected to have been able to obtain a situation. This pressed up on her spirit:. and for seve:al days before the fatal occurrence she states that she was hardly aware what she was doing. It transpired accidentally in the course of the trial that the prisoner had been connected with a polic3- constable of the detective force, and who, it ap pears, is the father of the child of which she is en ceinte, and he, it seemed, bad promised to send her some money, but failing to do so it increased her dis tress, and, as she says, almost drove her mad. On the day on which the fatal occurrence took place, the prisoner states that she was pressed by the deceased for payment, and, in the course of a violent quarrel the deceased attempted to strike her. This excited her, and induced her to strike the old woman in re turn, and she fell to the ground insensible, and she then threw herself upon her, and did not desist from violence until the deceased was no more. It then occurred to her that the deceased had a hoard of money in her drawers, and she opened the one in which she believed it was kept, and was surprised to find that there was no more than one or two and twenty shillings, which she possessed herself of, and then went out to endeavour to make her way to Brighton, but finding that the last train had started, she re turned to the house, and stayed in the room with the deceased until the following morning, when, in at tempting to depart, she was arrested in the extraor dinary manner detailed at the trial, and which led to the discovery of the murder. These are the principal facts stated by the unhappy prisoner, and she appears quite resigned to her fate, and does not seem to ex pect any commutation o f sentence. She is, how ever, constantly watched by the female turnkeys o' the gaol, and is not left alone either by night or day iina - ill br RECONCILIATION IN HIGH LIFE.—It wi. ...)e a source of gratification to all our readers in the highe3t circles. of society to learn, that the estrangement which has existed in a ducal family, caused by the indiscreet elopement of a youthful lady, has at length ended in a reconciliation, happily brought about by a near relative of the noble family. A MATRIMONIAL NEWSPAPER. —Every commu nity, class, and profession, has its literary organ ; and, not to be behind the rest of the world, the keepers of matrimonial offices in Paris have started a journal under the alluring title of the ',arena. It is to serve as a me dium of communication between persons who wish to get married. Ladies in want of husbands are to write letters to it, setting forth their personal charms, and the amount of their fortunes, together with any other particulars they may think likely to enhance their value in the matrimonial market; and gentlemen are to write s i m il ar co mmunications. It. is, in fact, to be an adver tising paper for would-be lives and would-be husbands. T p i o P ra L tio l t C he ° co l ; n M o f E Su e A r R a n Yd waAitedD D up ß on E th S e S ß E: ht TO SIR ROBERT PEEL. On Friday, on th e occas i on o f t h e v i s it o f Si r P.- Peel to Seaham, th e M a y or an d severa l members et Hon. Rifonet to • prest-ut an address which that body had unanimously adopted. The address expressed, on the part of the o pre senters, their deep sense of th e invaluable services f the Right Hon. Baronet, when at th e ti me tliatth empire was threatened with a fearful ca l am i t e principal adviser of her Majesty, he ad o pt e d means best calculated to afford relief. Sir ROBERT PEEL said—As you were good enough to send me a copy of the document which you hav e just placed in my hands, and thinking that you might wish to have a written answer to the address you have presented, I have prepared one, which I will read to you. The Right lion. Baronet proceeded to read as fellows :—" I have visited this neighbourhood for the sole purpose of gratifying feelings of private friendship, and of being present on an occasion deeply interesting to the members of a noble family for whom I feel a very sincere regard, and who bear a name which I must ever hold in the highest respect. Your kindness compels me to forget for a moment the private capacity in which my visit has been paid, and publicly to return to you my best acknowledgment, for the address which you have presented to me in pursuance of the unanimous vote of the Council of the borough of Sunderland. I thank you for the justice you have done to the motives which influenced my conduct on the occasion to which you have alluded in the address. On entering into the service of our gracious Sovereign, I accepted, together with the distinction and privileges of office, the heavy responsibility which it imposes. When at a crisis of great difficulty I offered that advice which in my heart and conscience I believed to be best calculated to mitigate immediate suffering, and to diminish the risk of future peril, I was only fulfilling the solemn obligation which I had contracted when I undertook the duties of a Minister. It is gratifying to me to receive from you the emphatic assurance that I so discharged those duties as to have entitled me to your approbation and esteem. I fully participate in the anxiety you express for the maintenance and promo tion of our maritime interests ; they are intimately blended with the general welfare of this great country, and our national defence and security. I confidently trust that the several measures which have been adopted of late years for simplifying the commercial code, for abolishing vexatious regulations on trade, and for reducing the duties on articles of the first importance in the construction and navigation of our commercial marine, will have a beneficial effect on those interests with which the town of Sunder land has so intimate and important a connexion." The Right Ilan. Baronet concluded with the expres sion of his regret that circumstances prevented him from personally conveying his sentiments to the in habitants of Sunderland, and assured them that if he again visited the county of Durham, he would not fail to visit that port. The members of the corporation were then invited to a luncheon, provided in a neighbouring hotel, at which the Marquis of Londonderry presided. Be sides Sir R. Peel, there were present the Duke of Rutland, Lord Belhaven, and Lord Combermere, part of the distinguished circle now visiting Wynyard. Sir R. PEEL, in responding to a toast to his health, adverted to the exemplary manner in which Lord Londonderry discharged the duties incident to the possession of property both in England and Ireland, and to the public spirit and enterprise which he had evinced in the construction of Seaham harbour. He said it would be a proud reflection to Lord and Lady Londonderry at the close of life, that they , hail ap propriated their property so as to be the thunders of a port on the eastern coast of England—that they had added to the maritime strength of the country, and the employment and industry of its inhabitants— ' that they had established every institution connected with the well-being of the people, providing for their religious worship, administering consolation in sick ness and suffering, and remembering those moral obligations which the possession of property imposed. An address of similar import from Stockton was also presented to Sir R. Peel at Wynyard. Sir R. PEEL read a reply, in which, referring to those who were parties to the address, he said—They have, I fear, greatly overrated any services which I have been enabled to render, and have ascribed to me an undue share of merit on account of the par ticular measures to which they refer ; but I may accept their approbation fur the faithful perform ance of the duty, imperative upon a public man, which requires him to give that advice which he conscientiously believes to be most conducive to the genaral welfare, and, should painful personal sacrifices be requisite for the purpose of giving effect to it, cheerfully to submit to them. I cordially concur in the sentiments expressed in this address with regard to the beneficial results of a free commercial intercourse between the several nations of the world. I believe it will be found to be the most powerful instrument for promoting peace, for extend ing civilization, and for increasing the comfort and enjoyments of the great body of the community in every country. Having unshaken confidence in the abstract truth of those principles which enjoin the unrestricted interchange of the several products for which we are indebted to the bounty of Providence and the skill and industry of man ; and being con vinced that the practical application of them will con duce to the welfare of every people, I feel assured that they will gradually prevail over all the impedi ments which erroneous views of commercial policy, or partial interests, may for a time offer to their pro gress. If I wanted any other motive to stimulate my humble efforts in support of those principles beyond the deep conviction of their truth, and the sense of public duty, it would be amply supplied by • such a token of your approval and confidence as you have this day presented to me.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON BLACKHEATH. — Saturday afternoon Mr. Payne held an inquest at St. Thomas's Hospital, on view of the body of Samuel Jackman, aged twenty-eight, a labourer on the North Kent Railway. It appeared from the evidence of several witnesses that about one o'clock on Thursday morning s , the dece s ased t , with some other men, was engaged in inking a hir on Blackheath, for the purpose of forming a tunnel to connect a railway between Greenwich an d . ravesenfi He was at the top of the shaft, whlch niti ( e i feet in di a m e ter and forty-five feet i n depth, a nd had. ralnriudp by a windlass a pail fill ed with water, t.ake t f r om.n a, spring, when, whi le in the act of tip p feli wbahcike.h op:mceeasneadtitinhenwhdoitatotemly,, f c a l t l h e r d 5 04t f ; in b , e ,v l o e ll i m u p 0 . 1 , 1 1 , 1, side. and the deceased fell in the midst of them.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE —An inquest was held on Saturday by Mr. Bedford, at Charing-cross Hospital, on the body of John Chapman. aged fifty-seven, a carpenter at her Majesty's Theatro. The; evidence proved that the deceased, on Frid y afternoon last, was at work in the flies of the theatre arranging the machinery, and whilst in the act of stepping from the flies into the grooves, it is supposed that he must have missed his footing, for he was observed by same other parties working on the stage to fall to the bottom.

The fire, it should be stated, had already ob tained too strong a hold of the to p floors for an y one to enter them. The engine was worked with vigour for a considerable time, but, unfortunately, little or no impres sion could be made upon the flames ; a mounted express was. therefore, sent for the assistance of the London engines, and several immediately started for the scene of conflagration. All hands at once set to work, and by half-past six o'clock the fire was happily subdued. The damage done is very serious, and at a moderate calcula tion will amount to several hundred pounds. The origin of the outbreak was not ascertained. It is understood that steps have been taken to con test the return of Sir Willoughby Jones for Cheltenham. Counsel have been retained, and other preliminary pro ceedings adopted for an inquiry into the alleged cases of bribery and treating, before a Committee of the House of Commons.—Cheltenham Examiner.

The object of this Association is totally to abolish the use of climbing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those employing them are subjected by the 3,1 and 4th Victoria, car. 85, aro continually resorted to. This breach of the law is acquiesced in by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im possitility in innumerable cases of cleansing a chimney or the flue with the old machine. F or the laudable purpose of furthering obj of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the inge nious and effective RaMolleUr machine has been invente. This i nv ention consists of four b rus h e s forming a square head,d which by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby creating an even pressure on all four sided of a chimney. with, The rods attached to this head or brush are supplied at intervals universal spring joints, capable of turning even a right angle and the whole is surmounted with a double revolving ball, having also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty east every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its route moot perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are best demonstrated by the fact, that it is exclusively used in the Government and numerous public offices, while the patronage bestow d are eby nual a larg con number of the nobility and gentry in eontinuing their e tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well as of the philanthropic views of the projectors.

Several persons have ascended with me. The weather has been very unsettled and strong, and I have only had three fine days out of nine. The last, how ever (Sunday, August 22), was the worst of all—the wind blew almost a hurricane from the south-west, ac companied by heavy thunder and lightning, nearly the whole of the day; indeed, it was generally believed the ascent would be postponed, but being anxious to keep up my reputation, I commenced the inflation. The ascent, which took place at a quarter to five, excited great alarm and astonishment, because just after a vio lent)peal of thunder the balloon rose almost immediately under the clouds from which the storm proceeded, when, at about four thousand five hundred feet high, aid on a level with them, several electrical discharges occurred, which afforded me the long wished for opportunity of observing the effect of lightning upon the air, as the clouds and the balloon were going abreast of each other at only a few hundred yards distant. The air was very much disturbed, it seemed full of eddies, which agitated the balloon a good deal, Every fresh discharge commu nicated a vibrating motion to the balloon, and caused it to oscillate considerably, while the rain falling on the earth made a noise like a waterfall at a great distance. In descending we fell in with a current blowing a few points more to the north, which bore us away from the storm, and after being up for about an hour I descended at Windeeken." Two CHILDREN FOUND MURDERED.—Yesterday morning, about six o'clock, the police-constable on duty on Walworth-common, discovered a wicker basket hid den in a ditch on the common, and on opening it found the body of a female infant, about fourteen days old, wrapped in a blue cotton handkerchief, death having been caused by a bandage tied over the mouth. It was taken to Newington workhouse to await the coroner's inquest. About the same hour yesterday morning some boys bathing in the Regent's-canal at Mile-end, found ti., body of a nyll. ii.f.lnt., ..,1) , .t. u the r: a, 0., , 1;s. • 11, c,,, had been strangled with a piece of cord and then thrown into the water.
